1 Whakapapa 22
1 Katahi ka ki a Rawiri, ko te whare tenei o Ihowa, o te Atua, ko te aata tahunga tinana ano tenei ma Iharaira.
And David saith, 'This is the house of Jehovah God, and this the altar for burnt-offering for Israel.'
2 I whakahau ano a Rawiri kia huihuia nga tangata iwi ke o te whenua o Iharaira; i whakaritea e ia he kaihahau hei hahau kohatu tarai, hei hanga mo te whare o te Atua.
And David saith to gather the sojourners who [are] in the land of Israel, and appointeth hewers to hew hewn-stones to build a house of God.
3 I mahia ano e Rawiri he rino, tona nui na, hei whao mo nga tatau o nga kuwaha, mo nga hononga, me te parahi ano, he nui noa atu, kihai i paunatia;
And iron in abundance for nails for leaves of the gates, and for couplings, hath David prepared, and brass in abundance — there is no weighing.
4 Me te rakau, he hita, kihai i taua; he maha hoki nga rakau, nga hita, i kawea mai e nga tangata o Hairona, o Taira, ki a Rawiri.
And cedar-trees even without number, for the Zidonians and the Tyrians brought in cedar-trees in abundance to David.
5 Na ka mea a Rawiri, He taitamariki taku tama, a Horomona, he ngawari, a ko te whare e hanga ma Ihowa, kia nui rawa te ingoa, te kororia, i nga whenua katoa: maku e timata te mahi mea mo reira. Na he maha nga mea i pae i a Rawiri i mua i tona mate nga.
And David saith, 'Solomon my son [is] a youth and tender, and the house to be built to Jehovah [is] to be made exceedingly great, for name and for beauty to all the lands; let me prepare, I pray Thee, for it;' and David prepareth in abundance before his death.
6 Katahi ka karangatia e ia tana tama a Horomona, a whakahaua ana e ia kia hanga te whare o Ihowa, o te Atua o Iharaira.
And he calleth for Solomon his son, and chargeth him to build a house to Jehovah, God of Israel,
7 Na ka mea a Rawiri ki a Horomona, ki tana tama, Ko ahau, i whai ngakau ahau ki te hanga i te whare mo te ingoa o Ihowa, o toku Atua.
and David saith to Solomon his son, 'As for me, it hath been with my heart to build a house to the name of Jehovah my God,
8 Otiia i puta mai te kupu a Ihowa ki ahau; i mea ia, He nui nga toto i whakahekea e koe; he nui nga whawhai i whawhai ai koe. E kore e hanga e koe he whare mo toku ingoa; he nui hoki nga toto i whakahekea e koe ki te whenua ki toku aroaro:
and the word of Jehovah [is] against me, saying, Blood in abundance thou hast shed, and great wars thou hast made: thou dost not build a house to My name, for much blood thou hast shed to the earth before Me.
9 Nana, ka whanau he tama mau, he tangata ata noho; ka meinga ano ia e ahau kia ata noho i ona hoariri a tawhio noa: ko tona ingoa ko Horomona, a ka hoatu e ahau te rongo mau, me te rangimarie ki a Iharaira i ona ra.
'Lo, a son is born to thee; he is a man of rest, and I have given rest to him from all his enemies round about, for Solomon is his name, and peace and quietness I give unto Israel in his days;
10 Mana e hanga he whare mo toku ingoa; ko ia hei tama ki ahau, ko ahau hei papa ki a ia. Na ka whakapumautia e ahau te torona o tona kingitanga ki a Iharaira a ake ake.
he doth build a house to My name, and he is to Me for a son, and I [am] to him for a father, and I have established the throne of his kingdom over Israel unto the age.
11 Na, e taku tama, kia noho a Ihowa ki a koe; kia kake koe, kia hanga ano e koe te whare o Ihowa, o tou Atua, kia rite ano ki tana kupu mou.
'Now, my son, Jehovah is with thee, and thou hast prospered, and hast built the house of Jehovah thy God, as He spake concerning thee.
12 Kia homai ano ia e Ihowa he ngakau whakaaro, he mohio, ki a koe, kia whakahaua e ia ki a koe he tikanga mo Iharaira; kia puritia ai e koe te ture a Ihowa, a tou Atua,
Only, Jehovah give to thee wisdom and understanding, and charge thee concerning Israel, even to keep the law of Jehovah thy God;
13 Ko reira koe kake ai, ki te puritia e koe, ki te mahia, nga tikanga, me nga whakaritenga i whakahaua e Ihowa ki a Mohi mo Iharaira. Kia kaha, kia maia; kaua e wehi, kaua e pawera.
then thou dost prosper, if thou dost observe to do the statutes and the judgments that Jehovah charged Moses with concerning Israel; be strong and courageous; do not fear, nor be cast down.
14 Nana, i ahau e he nei, kua pae i ahau he koura mo te whare o Ihowa, kotahi rau mano taranata; he hiriwa, kotahi mano mano taranata; me te parahi, me te rino, e kore e taea te paunga, he nui hoki; me te rakau, me te kohatu, kua pae i ahau. Mau an o e tapiri etahi ki era.
'And lo, in mine affliction, I have prepared for the house of Jehovah of gold talents a hundred thousand, and of silver a thousand thousand talents; and of brass and of iron there is no weighing, for in abundance it hath been, and wood and stones I have prepared, and to them thou dost add.
15 Kei a koe ano tona tini o nga kaimahi, o nga kaihahau, o nga kaimahi i te kohatu, i te rakau, me nga mea mohio katoa ki nga mahi katoa.
'And with thee in abundance [are] workmen, hewers and artificers of stone and of wood, and every skilful man for every work.
16 E kore e taea te tatau te koura, te hiriwa, te parahi, te rino. Whakatika, e mahi, a hei a koe a Ihowa.
To the gold, to the silver, and to the brass, and to the iron, there is no number; arise and do, and Jehovah is with thee.'
17 I whakahau ano a Rawiri i nga rangatira katoa o Iharaira kia uru ki te mahi a tana tama, a Horomona; i mea ia,
And David giveth charge to all heads of Israel to give help to Solomon his son,
18 He teka ianei ko Ihowa, ko to koutou Atua, hei hoa mo koutou? a kua meinga koutou kia ata noho a tawhio noa? kua homai hoki e ia nga tangata o te whenua ki toku ringa; a kua taea te whenua te pehi i te aroaro o Ihowa, i te aroaro ano o tana iwi.
'Is not Jehovah your God with you? yea, He hath given rest to you round about, for He hath given into my hand the inhabitants of the land, and subdued hath been the land before His people.
19 Na tukua o koutou ngakau, o koutou wairua, ki te rapu i a Ihowa, i to koutou Atua. Whakatika ki te hanga i te wahi tapu o te Atua, o Ihowa, ki te kawe mai ano i te aaka o te kawenata a Ihowa, i nga oko tapu a te Atua, ki te whare ka hanga nei mo te ingoa o Ihowa.
'Now, give your heart and your soul to seek to Jehovah your God, and rise and build the sanctuary of Jehovah God, to bring in the ark of the covenant of Jehovah, and the holy vessels of God, to the house that is built to the name of Jehovah.'
