2 Chronicles 24

1 Ioash was seuen yere olde, when he began to reigne, and he reigned fourty yeere in Ierusalem: and his mothers name was Zibiah of Beer-sheba.

E whitu nga tau o Ioaha i a ia i kingi ai; a e wha tekau nga tau i kingi ai ia ki Hiruharama. A ko te ingoa o tona whaea, ko Tipia, no Peerehepa.

2 And Ioash did vprightly in the sight of the Lord, all the dayes of Iehoiada the Priest.

Na he tika nga mahi a Ioaha ki te titiro a Ihowa i nga ra katoa o te tohunga, o Iehoiara.

3 And Iehoiada tooke him two wiues, and he begate sonnes and daughters.

A i tangohia e Iehoiara he wahine mana, tokorua; a ka whanau ana tama, ana tamahine.

4 And afterward it came into Ioash mind, to renew the house of the Lord.

I muri i tenei ka whai ngakau a Ioaha ki te whakahou i te whare o Ihowa.

5 And he assembled the Priests and the Leuites, and said to them, Goe out vnto the cities of Iudah, and gather of all Israel money to repaire the house of your God, from yeere to yeere, and haste the thing: but the Leuites hasted not.

A ka oti nga tohunga me nga Riwaiti te huihui e ia, ka mea ia ki a ratou, Haere ki nga pa o Hura, ki te kohikohi moni mai i a Iharaira katoa hei whakahou i te whare o to koutou Atua, i tenei tau, i tenei tau; ma koutou hoki e whakahohoro taua mah i. Heoi kihai i hohoro i nga Riwaiti.

6 Therefore the King called Iehoiada, the chiefe, and said vnto him, Why hast thou not required of the Leuites to bring in out of Iudah and Ierusalem the taxe of Moses the seruant of the Lord, and of the Congregation of Israel, for the Tabernacle of the testimonie?

Na ka karanga te kingi ki a Iehoiara, ko te upoko hoki ia, a ka mea ki a ia, He aha koe te mea ai ki nga Riwaiti kia mauria mai i a Hura, i Hiruharama, te mea i kohikohia, ta Mohi pononga a Ihowa me ta te whakaminenga o Iharaira mo te tapenakara o te whakaaturanga?

7 For wicked Athaliah, and her children brake vp the house of God: and all the things that were dedicate for the house of the Lord, did they bestowe vpon Baalim.

Na nga tama hoki a taua wahine kino a Ataria i wahi te whare o te Atua; a ko nga mea tapu katoa o te whare o Ihowa, meinga ana e ratou mo nga Paara.

8 Therefore the King commanded, and they made a chest, and set it at the gate of the house of the Lord without.

Heoi ka korero te kingi, a ka hanga he pouaka e ratou, whakaturia ana ki waho, ki te kuwaha o te whare o Ihowa.

9 And they made proclamation thorow Iudah and Ierusalem, to bring vnto the Lord the taxe of Moses the seruant of God, layde vpon Israel in the wildernesse.

Na, ka pa te karanga puta noa i a Hura, i Hiruharama, kia kawea mai ki a Ihowa te kohikohi i whakaritea e Mohi, e ta te Atua pononga, ki a Iharaira i te koraha.

10 And all the princes and all the people reioyced, and brought in, and cast into the chest, vntill they had finished.

Na koa tonu nga rangatira katoa me te iwi katoa, a kawea ana mai e ratou, maka ana ki roto ki te pouaka a rite noa.

11 And when it was time, they brought the chest vnto the Kings officer by the hand of the Leuites: and when they saw that there was much siluer, then the Kings Scribe (and one appoynted by the hie Priest) came and emptied the chest, and tooke it, and caried it to his place againe: thus they did day by day, and gathered siluer in abundance.

A, i nga wa e kawea mai ai e nga Riwaiti te pouaka ki te whare takoha o te kingi, a ka kitea kua rahi te moni, ka haere mai te kaituhituhi a te kingi raua ko te tangata a te tino tohunga, ka ringihia e raua nga mea i roto i te pouaka, na ka tang o raua, ka whakahoki ano ki tona wahi. Pena tonu ratou i ia ra, i ia ra, a nui atu te moni i kohikohia.

12 And the King and Iehoiada gaue it to such as did the labour and worke in the house of the Lord, and hyred masons and carpenters to repayre the house of the Lord: they gaue it also to workers of yron and brasse, to repayre the house of the Lord.

A hoatu ana e te kingi raua ko Iehoiara ki nga tangata i te mahi o nga mea mo te whare o Ihowa; a na ratou i utu nga kaimahi kohatu, nga kamura, hei whakahou i te whare o Ihowa, nga kaimahi hoki i te rino, i te parahi, hei whakaora mo te whare o Ihowa.

13 So the workemen wrought, and the worke amended through their hands: and they restored the house of God to his state, and strengthened it.

Heoi ka mahi nga kaimahi, a ka oti te mahi i a ratou; na kua meinga e ratou kia rite ki to mua ahua te tu o te whare o te Atua, kia kaha hoki.

14 And when they had finished it, they brought the rest of the siluer before the King and Iehoiada, and he made thereof vessels for the house of the Lord, euen vessels to minister, both morters and incense cuppes, and vessels of golde, and of siluer: and they offred burnt offrings in the house of the Lord continually all the dayes of Iehoiada.

A, ka oti i a ratou, ka kawea te toenga o te moni ki te aroaro o te kingi raua ko Iehoiara, a ka waiho hei hanga i etahi oko mo te whare o Ihowa, i nga oko minita, i nga mea mo nga patunga tapu, i nga koko, i nga oko koura, hiriwa; a he whakaeke tonu ta ratou i te tahunga tinana i te whare o Ihowa i nga ra katoa o Iehoiara.

15 But Iehoiada waxed olde, and was ful of dayes and dyed. An hundreth and thirtie yeere olde was he when he dyed.

Otiia kua koroheketia a Iehoiara, kua maha ona ra, a ka mate: kotahi rau e toru tekau ona tau i tona matenga.

16 And they buried him in the citie of Dauid with the kings, because he had done good in Israel, and toward God and his house.

A tanumia ana ia ki te pa o Rawiri ki te taha o nga kingi; he pai hoki no tana mahi ki a Iharaira, ki te Atua hoki, a ki tona whare.

17 And after the death of Iehoiada, came the princes of Iudah, and did reuerence to the King, and the King hearkened vnto them.

Na i muri i te matenga o Iehoiara ka haere mai nga rangatira o Hura, a ka piko ki te kingi. Na rongo tonu te kingi ki a ratou.

18 And they left the house of the Lord God of their fathers, and serued groues and idoles: and wrath came vpon Iudah and Ierusalem, because of this their trespasse.

Na whakarerea ake e ratou te whare o Ihowa, o te Atua o o ratou matua, mahi ana ratou ki nga Aherimi, ki nga whakapakoko. Na kua pa he riri ki a Hura, ki Hiruharama, mo tenei he o ratou.

19 And God sent Prophets amog the, to bring them againe vnto the Lord: and they made protestation among them, but they would not heare.

Heoi unga ana e ia nga poropiti ki a ratou hei whakahoki i a ratou ki a Ihowa, a whakawa ana ratou i a ratou: otiia kihai i rongo.

20 And the Spirit of God came vpon Zechariah the sonne of Iehoiada the Priest, which stoode aboue the people, and sayde vnto them, Thus sayth God, Why transgresse ye the commandements of the Lord? surely ye shall not prosper: because ye haue forsaken the Lord, he also hath forsaken you.

Na kua tau te wairua o te Atua ki te tohunga, ki a Hakaraia tama a Iehoiara; a ka tu ia ki runga ake i te iwi, ka mea ki a ratou, Ko te kupu tenei a te Atua, he aha koutou ka takahi ai i nga whakahau a Ihowa? ma konei hoki ka kore ai koutou e ka ke. Kua whakarerea nei e koutou a Ihowa na kua whakarerea hoki koutou e ia.

21 Then they conspired against him and stoned him with stones at the commandement of the King, in the court of the house of the Lord.

Na ka whakatupuria e ratou he he mona, a akina ia ki te kohatu, na te kingi i whakahau, ki te marae o te whare o Ihowa.

22 Thus Ioash the King remembred not the kindnesse which Iehoiada his father had done to him, but slewe his sonne. And when he dyed, he sayd, The Lord looke vpon it, and require it.

Heoi kihai a Kingi Ioaha i mahara ki te aroha i whakaputaina e tona papa, e Iehoiara, ki a ia: heoi patua ana e ia tana tama. A i tona matenga, ka mea ia, Ma Ihowa e titiro, e rapu utu.

23 And when the yeere was out, the host of Aram came vp against him, and they came against Iudah and Ierusalem, and destroyed all the princes of the people from among the people, and sent all the spoyle of them vnto the King of Damascus.

Na taka rawa ake te tau, ka whakaekea ia e te taua o Hiria; a haere ana mai ratou ki a Hura, ki Hiruharama, whakangaromia ana e ratou nga rangatira katoa o te iwi i roto i te iwi, tukua ana e ratou o ratou taonga katoa kia kawea ki te kingi o Ra mahiku.

24 Though the armie of Aram came with a small company of men, yet the Lord deliuered a very great armie into their hand, because they had forsaken the Lord God of their fathers: and they gaue sentence against Ioash.

He tokoiti hoki nga tangata o te taua o nga Hiriani i haere mai nei; a hoatu ana e Ihowa te ope nui rawa ki o ratou ringa, mo ratou i whakarere i a Ihowa, i te Atua o o ratou matua. Heoi tutuki ana i a ratou he whakawa mo Ioaha.

25 And when they were departed from him, (for they left him in great diseases) his owne seruants conspired against him for the blood of the children of Iehoiada the Priest, and slewe him on his bed, and he dyed, and they buryed him in the citie of Dauid: but they buryed him not in the sepulchres of the Kings.

A, no to ratou haerenga atu i a ia, i mahue iho hoki ia i a ratou he nui ona mate, ka whakatupuria e ana tangata he he mona, mo nga toto o nga tama a Iehoiara tohunga, a patua ana ia e ratou, ki runga ki tona moenga, a mate iho: na tanumia ana i a e ratou ki te pa o Rawiri, otiia kahore ki nga tanumanga o nga kingi.

26 And these are they that conspired against him, Zabad the sonne of Shimrath an Ammonitesse, and Iehozabad the sonne of Shimrith a Moabitesse.

Na ko nga tangata nana i whakatupu te he mona; ko Tapara, tama a tetahi wahine o Amona, a Himeata, ko Iehotapara, tama a tetahi wahine o Moapa, a Timiriti.

27 But his sonnes, and the summe of the taxe gathered by him, and the foundation of the house of God, behold, they are written in the storie of the booke of the Kings. And Amaziah his sonne reigned in his steade.

Na, ko ana tama, me te nui o nga taimaha i utaina ki runga ki a ia, me te hanganga i te whare o te Atua, nana, kei te tuhituhi ena i roto i nga korero o te pukapuka o nga kingi; a ko tana tama, ko Amatia, te kingi i muri i a ia.
