¹And he brought me unto the gate, the gate which looked toward the east.

¹¶ Muri iho ka kawea ahau e ia ki te kuwaha, ara ki te kuwaha e anga ana ki te rawhiti.

²And behold, the glory of the God of Israel came from the way of the east; and his voice was like the voice of many waters; and the earth was lit up with his glory.

²Na, ko te kororia o te Atua o Iharaira e puta mai ana, i te ara ki te rawhiti; ko tona reo rite tonu ki te haruru o nga wai maha: marama tonu te whenua i tona kororia.

³And the appearance of the vision that I saw was according to the vision that I had seen when I came to destroy the city; and the visions were like the vision that I saw by the river Chebar: and I fell upon my face.

³Ko tona rite kei te ahua o taku kite i kite ai, ki tera i kite ra ahau i ahau e haere ana ki te whakangaro i te pa; rite tonu hoki nga kite ki taku i kite ai ki te awa, ki Kepara: a takoto tapapa ana ahau.

⁴And the glory of Jehovah came into the house by the way of the gate whose front was toward the east.

⁴Na kua tae te kororia o Ihowa ki roto ki te whare; i tika na te ara o te kuwaha e anga ana ki te rawhiti.

⁵And the Spirit lifted me up, and brought me into the inner court; and behold, the glory of Jehovah filled the house.

⁵Na ka hapainga ake ahau e te wairua, kawea ana e ia ki to roto marae. Na, kua ki te whare i te kororia o Ihowa.

⁶And I heard one speaking unto me out of the house; and a man was standing by me.

⁶I rongo ano ahau i tetahi e korero ana ki ahau i roto i te whare: me te tu ano tetahi tangata ki toku taha.

⁷And he said unto me, Son of man, [this is] the place of my throne, and the place of the soles of my feet, where I will dwell in the midst of the children of Israel for ever; and the house of Israel shall no more defile my holy name, they nor their kings, with their fornication, and with the carcases of their kings [in] their high places,

⁷¶ Na ka mea ia ki ahau; E te tama a te tangata, Ko te wahi tenei i toku torona, ko te wahi ano i nga kapu o oku waewae, ko te wahi e noho nei ahau i waenganui i nga tama a Iharaira a ake ake; e kore ano toku ingoa tapu e whakapokea a muri nei e te whare o Iharaira, e ratou, e o ratou kingi, ki a ratou moepuku, ki nga tinana ranei o o ratou kingi i o ratou wahi tiketike;

⁸in that they set their threshold by my threshold, and their post by my post, and [there was only] a wall between me and them, and they defiled my holy name with their abominations which they committed; and I consumed them in mine anger.

⁸I ta ratou whakanohoanga i to ratou paepae ki te taha o toku paepae, i to ratou pou tatau i te taha o toku pou tatau, a ko te taiepa anake hei wehe i ahau i a ratou; i whakapokea e ratou toku ingoa tapu ki a ratou mea whakarihariha i mahia nei e ratou; no reira pau ake ratou i ahau, i ahau e riri ana.

⁹Now let them put away their fornication, and the carcases of their kings, far from me, and I will dwell in the midst of them for ever.

⁹Na me wehe atu e ratou o ratou moepuku me nga tinana o o ratou kingi, kia matara atu i ahau, a ka noho ahau ki waenganui i a ratou a ake ake.

¹⁰Thou, son of man, shew the house to the house of Israel, that they may be confounded at their iniquities; and let them measure the pattern.

¹⁰Ko koe, e te tama a te tangata whakakitea e koe te whare ki te whare o Iharaira, kia whakama ai ratou ki o ratou he; me whanganga hoki e ratou te tauira.

¹¹And if they be confounded at all that they have done, make known to them the form of the house, and its fashion, and its goings out, and its comings in, and all its forms, and all its statutes, yea, all the forms thereof, and all the laws thereof; and write it in their sight, that they may keep the whole form thereof, and all the statutes thereof, and do them.

¹¹A, ki te whakama ratou ki nga mea katoa i mea ai ratou, whakakitea ki a ratou te ahua o te whare, tona whai hanga, ona putanga atu, ona tapokoranga ki roto, ona ahua katoa, ona ritenga katoa, me ona ahua katoa, me ona ture katoa, tuhituhia ano k i to ratou aroaro, kia mau ai i a ratou tona ahua katoa me ona ritenga katoa, kia mahia ai e ratou.

¹²This is the law of the house: Upon the top of the mountain all its border round about is most holy. Behold, this is the law of the house.

¹²Ko te ture tenei o te whare; ko nga taha katoa i runga i te tihi o te maunga, tapu rawa a tawhio noa. Nana, ko te ture tenei o te whare.

¹³And these are the measures of the altar in cubits: the cubit is a cubit and a hand breadth. The bottom was a cubit [in height] and the breadth a cubit, and its border on the edge thereof round about, one span: and this was the base of the altar.

¹³¶ Ko nga roroa enei o te aata, ara ko nga whatianga: he whatianga me te whanui ringa kei roto i te whatianga; a raro he whatianga, ko te whanui he whatianga, ko te taha i te niao he whanganga ringa a tawhio noa: ko te kaupapa tenei o te aata.

¹⁴And from the bottom upon the ground to the lower settle was two cubits, and the breadth one cubit; and from the small settle to the great settle, four cubits, and the breadth a cubit.

¹⁴Na, ko te turanga i runga i te whenua, haere ake ki to raro papa, e rua whatianga; ko te whanui kia kotahi whatianga; ko to te papa i raro tae noa ki te papa nui, e wha whatianga; ko te whanui, kotahi whatianga.

¹⁵And the upper altar was four cubits; and from the hearth of ùGod and upward were four horns.

¹⁵Na, ko to runga aata, e wha whatianga; i te takuahi o te aata whakarunga kia wha nga haona.

¹⁶And the hearth of ùGod was twelve [cubits] long, by twelve broad, square in the four sides thereof.

¹⁶Kia tekau ma rua whatianga te roa o te takuahi o te aata, kia tekau ma rua whatianga te whanui, he tapawha, e wha hoki nga taha.

¹⁷And the settle was fourteen [cubits] long by fourteen broad in the four sides thereof; and the border about it, half a cubit; and the bottom thereof a cubit round about: and its steps looked toward the east.

¹⁷Na, ko te papa, kia tekau ma wha whatianga te roa, kia tekau ma wha ano te whanui o nga taha e wha: ko te niao i te taha hei te hawhe whatianga; ko te turanga, kia kotahi te whatianga a tawhio noa; kia anga ano te pikitanga ki te rawhiti.

¹⁸And he said unto me, Son of man, thus saith the Lord Jehovah: These are the ordinances of the altar in the day when they shall make it, to offer up burnt-offerings thereon, and to sprinkle blood thereon.

¹⁸I ki mai ano ia ki ahau, E te tama a te tangata, ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa, Ko nga tikanga tenei o te aata i te ra e hanga ai hei whakaekenga mo te tahunga tinana, hei tauhiuhi mo te toto.

¹⁹And thou shalt give to the priests the Levites that are of the seed of Zadok, who come near unto me, to minister unto me, saith the Lord Jehovah, a young bullock for a sin-offering.

¹⁹Me hoatu e koe he puru, he kuao, hei whakahere hara ki nga tohunga, ki nga Riwaiti, ki nga uri o Haroko, e whakatata ana ki ahau minita ai, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa.

²⁰And thou shalt take of its blood, and put it on the four horns thereof, and on the four corners of the settle, and upon the border round about: so shalt thou purge and make atonement for it.

²⁰Me tango ano e koe tetahi wahi o ona toto, ka pani ki ona haona e wha, ki nga koki e wha o te papa, ki te taha a tawhio noa: na ka purea taua aata e koe, ka meinga kia ma.

²¹And thou shalt take the bullock of the sin-offering, and it shall be burned in the appointed place of the house, outside the sanctuary.

²¹Me tiki ano te puru, te whakahere hara, a mana e tahu ki te wahi o te whare i whakaritea i waho o te wahi tapu.

²²And on the second day thou shalt present a he-goat without blemish for a sin-offering; and they shall purge the altar, as they purged it with the bullock.

²²Na i te rua o nga ra me whakahere he koati toa, he mea kohakore, hei whakahere hara, a ka purea te aata, ka peratia me ta ratou purenga ki te kau.

²³When thou hast ended purging it, thou shalt present a young bullock without blemish, and a ram out of the flock without blemish;

²³Ka oti te pure e koe, me whakahere he kuao puru, he mea kohakore, me tetahi hipi toa o te kahui, hei te mea kohakore.

²⁴and thou shalt present them before Jehovah; and the priests shall cast salt upon them, and they shall offer them up for a burnt-offering unto Jehovah.

²⁴Me whakahere e koe ki te aroaro o Ihowa, mea maka ano e nga tohunga he tote ki runga, ka whakaeke ai hei tahunga tinana ki a Ihowa.

²⁵Seven days shalt thou offer daily a goat for a sin-offering; they shall also offer a young bullock, and a ram out of the flock without blemish.

²⁵E whitu nga ra e mahia ai e koe he hipi hei whakahere hara i tenei ra, i tenei ra; me mahi ano e ratou he kuao puru me tetahi hipi toa o te kahui, he mea kohakore.

²⁶Seven days shall they make atonement for the altar and purify it, and consecrate it.

²⁶E whitu nga ra e tahia ai e ratou te poke o te aata, e purea ai; ka pena ta ratou whakatapu i te aata.

²⁷And when these days are ended, it shall be that upon the eighth day and onwards the priests shall offer your burnt-offerings upon the altar, and your peace-offerings; and I will accept you, saith the Lord Jehovah.

²⁷A ka poto enei ra, na i te waru o nga ra, i o muri iho ano, ka mahia e nga tohunga a koutou tahunga tinana ki runga ki te aata, me a koutou whakahere mo te pai: a ka manako ahau ki a koutou, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa.
