< 1 Kingi 9 >

1 A, ka oti i a Horomona te whare o Ihowa, me te whare o te kingi, me nga mea katoa i hiahia ai a Horomona, i pai ai kia mahia;
After Solomon had finished building the house of Yahweh and the king's palace, and after he had accomplished all that he wanted to do,
2 Na ko te rua o nga putanga o Ihowa ki a Horomona, pera me tona putanga ki a ia ki Kipeono.
Yahweh appeared to Solomon a second time, as he had appeared to him at Gibeon.
3 Na ka mea a Ihowa ki a ia, Kua rongo ahau i tau inoi, i tau karanga i karanga ai koe i toku aroaro; kua oti i ahau te whakatapu tenei whare kua hanga nei e koe, hei waihotanga iho mo toku ingoa a ake ake; ka tau ano oku kanohi, me toku ngakau, ki reira i nga ra katoa.
Then Yahweh said to him, “I have heard your prayer and your request that you have made before me. I have set apart this house, which you have built, to myself, to put my name there forever. My eyes and my heart will be there for all time.
4 Na, ko koe, ki te rite tau haere i toku aroaro ki te haere a tou papa, a Rawiri, a ka tapatahi, ka tika te ngakau, ka mahi koe i nga mea katoa i whakahau ai ahau ki a koe, ka pupuri i aku tikanga, i aku whakaritenga;
As for you, if you walk before me as David your father walked in integrity of heart and in uprightness, obeying all that I have commanded you and keeping my statutes and my decrees,
5 Katahi ahau ka whakapumau i te torona o tou kingitanga ki a Iharaira a ake ake; ka pera me taku i korero ai ki tou papa, ki a Rawiri, i ahau i ki ra, E kore e whakakorea he tangata mau mo te torona o Iharaira.
then I will establish the throne of your kingdom over Israel forever, as I promised David your father, saying, 'A descendant of yours will never fail to be on the throne of Israel.'
6 Otiia ki te anga koutou ko a koutou tama, ki te tahuri ke, a kahore e whai i ahau, e pupuri i aku whakahau, i aku tikanga, i hoatu e ahau ki to koutou aroaro, a ka haere, ka mahi ki nga atua ke, ka koropiko ki a ratou,
But if you turn away, you or your children, and do not keep my commandments and my statutes that I have placed before you, and if you go and worship other gods and bow down to them,
7 Katahi ka hautopea atu e ahau a Iharaira i te mata o te whenua i hoatu e ahau ki a ratou; a koe tenei whare i whakatapua nei e ahau mo toku ingoa, ka akiritia atu e ahau i toku aroaro, a ka waiho a Iharaira hei whakatauki, hei taunutanga i roto i nga iwi katoa.
then will I cut off Israel from off the ground that I have given them; and this house that I have set apart to my name, I will cast it out of my sight, and Israel will become an example to be mocked and an object of ridicule among all peoples.
8 Na, ahakoa te tiketike o te whare nei, ka miharo ia nga tangata katoa e haere ana na konei, ka whakahi, ka mea, Na te aha tenei mahi a Ihowa ki tenei whenua, ki tenei whare?
This temple will become a heap of ruins, and everyone who passes by it will be shocked and will hiss. They will ask, 'Why has Yahweh done this to this land and to this house?'
9 Na ka whakahoki ratou, Mo ratou i whakarere i a Ihowa, i to ratou Atua, i whakaputa mai nei i o ratou matua i te whenua o Ihipa, a ka tango ki nga atua ke, ka koropiko ki a ratou, ka mahi ki a ratou: no reira i homai ai e Ihowa tenei kino katoa k i runga ki a ratou.
Others will answer, 'Because they forsook Yahweh, their God, who had brought their ancestors out of the land of Egypt, and they laid hold of other gods and bowed down to them and worshiped them. That is why Yahweh has brought all this disaster on them.'”
10 Na i te mutunga o nga tau e rua tekau, i te mea ka oti te hanga e Horomona nga whare e rua, te whare o Ihowa, me te whare o te kingi;
It came about at the end of twenty years that Solomon had finished building the two buildings, the temple of Yahweh and the king's palace.
11 Na i homai e Hirama kingi o Taira he rakau hita ki a Horomona, he rakau kauri, he koura, ko ana katoa i pai ai; na hoatu ana e Kingi Horomona ki a Hirama e rua tekau nga pa i te whenua o Kariri.
Now Hiram, the king of Tyre, had furnished Solomon with cedar and cypress trees, and with gold—all that Solomon desired—so King Solomon gave Hiram twenty cities in the land of Galilee.
12 A ka haere ake a Hirama i Taira kia kite i nga pa i hoatu nei e Horomona ki a ia, kihai i rite ki tana titiro.
Hiram came out from Tyre to see the cities that Solomon had given him, but they did not please him.
13 Ka mea ia, He aha enei pa i homai nei e koe ki ahau, e toku tuakana? Na huaina iho e ia ko te whenua o Kapuru, koia tenei inaianei.
So Hiram said, “What cities are these which you have given me, my brother?” Hiram called them the Land of Kabul, which they are still called today.
14 Na tukua atu ana e Hirama ki te kingi kotahi rau e rua tekau nga taranata koura.
Hiram had sent to the king 120 talents of gold.
15 Na ko te putake tenei o te whakataka i whakataka ai e Horomona; hei hanga i te whare o Ihowa, i tona ake whare, i Miro, i te taiepa o Hiruharama, i Hatoro, i Mekiro, i Ketere.
This is the account of the forced labor which King Solomon imposed to build the temple of Yahweh and his own palace, the Millo, the wall of Jerusalem, and Hazor, and Megiddo, and Gezer.
16 I haere mai hoki a Parao kingi o Ihipa, a horo ana a Ketere i a ia, tahuna ana e ia ki te ahi, patua iho hoki nga Kanaani e noho ana i te pa, a homai ana hei kaipakuha ki tana tamahine, ki te wahine a Horomona.
Pharaoh king of Egypt had gone up and taken Gezer. He burned it and killed the Canaanites in the city. Then Pharaoh gave the city to his daughter, Solomon's wife, as a wedding gift.
17 Na hanga ana e Horomona a Ketere me Petehorono ki raro,
So Solomon rebuilt Gezer and Beth Horon the Lower,
18 Me Paarata, me Taramoro i te koraha, i taua whenua,
Baalath and Tamar in the wilderness in the land of Judah,
19 Me nga pa taonga katoa o Horomona, me nga pa mo nga hariata, me nga pa mo nga kaieke hoiho, me ta Horomona i hiahia ai kia hanga ki Hiruharama, ki Repanona, ki te whenua katoa hoki o tona kingitanga.
and all the store cities that he possessed, and the cities for his chariots and the cities for his horsemen, and whatever he wished to build for his pleasure in Jerusalem, in Lebanon, and in all the lands under his rule.
20 Ko nga morehu katoa o nga Amori, o nga Hiti, o nga Perihi, o nga Hiwi, o nga Iepuhi ehara nei i nga tama a Iharaira;
As for all the people who were left of the Amorites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites, who were not of the people of Israel,
21 Ko a ratou tamariki i mahue i muri i a ratou i te whenua, kihai nei i taea e nga tama a Iharaira te huna rawa, na whakatakohatia ana ratou e Horomona, he mahi te takoha, a tae noa ki tenei ra.
their descendants who were left after them in the land, whom the people of Israel were not able to totally destroy—Solomon made them into forced laborers, which they are to this day.
22 Ko nga tama ia a Iharaira, kihai i meinga e Horomona hei kaimahi; ko ratou hoki hei tangata whawhai, hei tangata mana, hei rangatira mana, hei kaiwhakahauhau mana, hei rangatira ano mo ana hariata, mo ana kaieke hoiho.
However, Solomon made no forced laborers of the people of Israel. Instead, they became his soldiers and his servants, his officials, and his officers and commanders of his chariot forces and his horsemen.
23 Ko nga rangatira enei o nga kaitohutohu, o nga rangatira o te mahi o Horomona, e rima rau e rima tekau, he rangatira, mo nga kaimahi i te mahi.
These were also the chief officers managing the supervisors who were over Solomon's works, 550 of them, who supervised the people who did the work.
24 Na, kua riro atu te tamahine a Parao i te pa o Rawiri ki runga, ki te whare i hanga e ia mona: katahi a Miro ka hanga e ia.
Pharaoh's daughter moved from the city of David to the house that Solomon had built for her. Later, Solomon built the Millo.
25 Na i te tau kotahi, e toru nga tapaenga a Horomona i nga tahunga tinana, i nga whakahere mo te pai ki runga ki te aata i hanga e ia ma Ihowa, i tahuna ano e ia te whakakakara ki tera i te aroaro o Ihowa. Heoi kua oti te whare i a ia.
Three times each year Solomon offered burnt offerings and peace offerings on the altar that he built for Yahweh, burning incense with them on the altar that was before Yahweh. So he completed the temple and was now using it.
26 Na he maha nga kaipuke i hanga e Kingi Horomona ki Ehiono Kepere, ki tera i Eroto i te taha o te Moana Whero, i te whenua o Eroma.
King Solomon built a fleet of ships in Ezion Geber, which is near Elath on the shore of the Red Sea, in the land of Edom.
27 A tonoa ana e Hirama ana tangata ki runga ki nga kaipuke, he kaimahi kaipuke, he mohio ki te moana, hei hoa mo nga tangata a Horomona.
Hiram sent servants to Solomon's fleet, sailors who were familiar with the sea, with Solomon's own servants.
28 Na ka rere ratou ki Opira, a utaina ana he koura i reira, e wha rau e rua tekau taranata, a kawea ana ki a Kingi Horomona.
They went to Ophir with servants of Solomon. From there they brought back 420 talents of gold for King Solomon.
