31 I te tekau ma tahi o nga tau, i te toru o nga marama, i te tuatahi o nga ra o te marama, ka puta mai te kupu a Ihowa ki ahau; i mea,
2 E te tama a te tangata, mea atu ki a Parao kingi o Ihipa, ratou ko ana mano tini; I a koe e nui na ko wai tou rite?
3 Nana, he hita i Repanona te Ahiriana, he pai nga manga, pururu tonu, marumaru tonu, he roa rawa, purero rawa; i roto ano tona kouru i nga manga pururu.
4 Nui tonu ia, na te wai hoki, roa tonu, he mea na te wai hohonu; i rere hoki ona awa i tetahi taha o ona mahuri, i tetahi taha; i tukua atu ano ona awa ririki ki nga rakau katoa o te parae.
5 Na reira roa rawa ia, purero rawa ki runga ake i nga rakau katoa o te parae; kua maha ano ona peka, kua roroa ona manga, he maha hoki no nga wai, i a ia e kokiri ake ana.
6 I hanga o ratou ohanga e nga manu katoa o te rangi ki ona peka, i whanau ano nga kirehe katoa o te parae ki raro i ona manga, i noho ano nga iwi nunui katoa ki raro i tona taumarumarunga iho.
7 Heoi ataahua tonu ia, i a ia i nui ra, i te roa hoki o ona manga: i te taha hoki o nga wai nui tona pakiaka.
8 Kihai ia i ngaro i nga hita o ta te Atua kari; kihai nga kauri i rite ki ona peka, kihai ano nga rakau pereni i rite ki ona manga; kahore he rakau o te kari a te Atua hei rite mona; i a ia i ataahua tonu ra.
9 I meinga ia e ahau kia ataahua tonu i te maha o ona manga: a hae ana nga rakau katoa o Erene, i te kari a te Atua, ki a ia.
10 Na reira ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; kua tiketike na koe, kua roa, a kokiri atu ana tona kouru ki roto ki nga manga pururu, a neke ake ana tona ngakau i a ia i tiketike ra;
11 Mo reira ka tukua ia e ahau ki te ringa o te mea kaha o nga tauiwi; ka nui ta tera mahi ki a ia; he kino nona i peia ai ia e ahau.
12 Na kua hatepea atu ia e nga tautangata, e nga mea nanakia o nga iwi, a kua whakarerea iho; kua taka ona rara ki runga ki nga maunga, ki nga awaawa katoa; kua whatiwhatiia ona manga ki te taha o nga awa katoa o te whenua; kua heke mai ano nga iwi katoa o te whenua i tona taumarumarutanga iho, whakarerea ake e ratou.
13 Kei runga i a ia, ina hinga, he kainga mo nga manu katoa o te rangi, a ka noho nga kirehe katoa o te parae ki ona manga;
14 He mea kei neke ake, kei purero ki runga tetahi o nga rakau i te taha o nga wai, kei kokiri ake o ratou kouru ki roto ki nga manga pururu, kei tu hoki, kei teitei nga rakau katoa e inu wai ana: kua tukua katoatia hoki ki te mate, ki nga wahi o r aro rawa o te whenua, ki roto ki nga tama a te tangata, ki te hunga e heke ana ki te rua.
15 Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; I te ra i heke ai ia ki te rua i meinga ia e ahau kia tangihia, he whakaaro ki a ia i hipokina ai e ahau te rire, i puritia ai ona awa, a ko nga wai nunui mau rawa: a meinga ana e ahau a Repanona kia tangi k i a ia, a ko nga rakau katoa o te parae ngohe kau ki a ia.
16 Meinga ana e ahau kia rurea nga iwi e te haruru o tona hinganga, i taku makanga i a ia ki raro i te reinga, ratou tahi ko te hunga e heke ana ki te rua: ko nga rakau katoa ano hoki o Erene, ko nga mea whiriwhiri, ko nga mea papai o Repanona, ko nga mea katoa e inu ana i te wai, ka whai whakamarietanga i nga wahi o raro rawa o te whenua.
17 I heke tahi ano ratou me ia ki te reinga, ki te hunga kua patua ki te hoari; ae ra, me te hunga ano i waiho nei hei ringa mona, i noho nei i raro i tona taumarumarunga iho i waenganui o nga tauiwi.
18 Ko wai hei rite mou, te kororia, te nui, i roto i nga rakau o Erene? heoi ka tukua ngatahitia iho koutou ko nga rakau o Erene ki nga wahi o raro rawa o te whenua: ka takoto koe i roto i te hunga kokotikore, i roto i te hunga i patua ki te hoari. Ko Parao tenei, ratou ko ana mano tini katoa, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa.

Pharaoh as a Felled Cedar of Lebanon
31 In the eleventh year,(A) in the third month on the first day, the word of the Lord came to me:(B) 2 “Son of man, say to Pharaoh king of Egypt and to his hordes:
“‘Who can be compared with you in majesty?
3 Consider Assyria,(C) once a cedar in Lebanon,(D)
with beautiful branches overshadowing the forest;
it towered on high,
its top above the thick foliage.(E)
4 The waters(F) nourished it,
deep springs made it grow tall;
their streams flowed
all around its base
and sent their channels
to all the trees of the field.(G)
5 So it towered higher(H)
than all the trees of the field;
its boughs increased
and its branches grew long,
spreading because of abundant waters.(I)
6 All the birds of the sky
nested in its boughs,
all the animals of the wild
gave birth(J) under its branches;
all the great nations
lived in its shade.(K)
7 It was majestic in beauty,
with its spreading boughs,
for its roots went down
to abundant waters.(L)
8 The cedars(M) in the garden of God
could not rival it,
nor could the junipers
equal its boughs,
nor could the plane trees(N)
compare with its branches—
no tree in the garden of God
could match its beauty.(O)
9 I made it beautiful
with abundant branches,
the envy of all the trees of Eden(P)
in the garden of God.(Q)
10 “‘Therefore this is what the Sovereign Lord says: Because the great cedar towered over the thick foliage, and because it was proud(R) of its height, 11 I gave it into the hands of the ruler of the nations, for him to deal with according to its wickedness. I cast it aside,(S) 12 and the most ruthless of foreign nations(T) cut it down and left it. Its boughs fell on the mountains and in all the valleys;(U) its branches lay broken in all the ravines of the land. All the nations of the earth came out from under its shade and left it.(V) 13 All the birds settled on the fallen tree, and all the wild animals lived among its branches.(W) 14 Therefore no other trees by the waters are ever to tower proudly on high, lifting their tops above the thick foliage. No other trees so well-watered are ever to reach such a height; they are all destined(X) for death,(Y) for the earth below, among mortals who go down to the realm of the dead.(Z)
15 “‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: On the day it was brought down to the realm of the dead I covered the deep springs with mourning for it; I held back its streams, and its abundant waters were restrained. Because of it I clothed Lebanon with gloom, and all the trees of the field withered away.(AA) 16 I made the nations tremble(AB) at the sound of its fall when I brought it down to the realm of the dead to be with those who go down to the pit. Then all the trees(AC) of Eden,(AD) the choicest and best of Lebanon, the well-watered trees, were consoled(AE) in the earth below.(AF) 17 They too, like the great cedar, had gone down to the realm of the dead, to those killed by the sword,(AG) along with the armed men who lived in its shade among the nations.
18 “‘Which of the trees of Eden can be compared with you in splendor and majesty? Yet you, too, will be brought down with the trees of Eden to the earth below; you will lie among the uncircumcised,(AH) with those killed by the sword.
“‘This is Pharaoh and all his hordes, declares the Sovereign Lord.’”
