2 Whakapapa 26

1 Katahi te iwi katoa o Hura ka mau ki a Utia, kotahi tekau ma ono nei ona tau, a meinga ana hei kingi i muri i tona papa, i a Amatia.

And all the people of Judah take Uzziah (and he [is] a son of sixteen years), and cause him to reign instead of his father Amaziah.

2 Na tenei i hanga Eroto, a whakahokia ana ki a Hura, i muri i te moenga o te kingi ki ona matua.

He hath built Eloth, and restoreth it to Judah after the king's lying with his fathers.

3 Kotahi tekau ma ono nga tau o Utia i tona kingitanga, a e rima tekau ma rua ona tau i kingi ai ia ki Hiruharama; a ko te ingoa o tona whaea, ko Iekoria, no Hiruharama.

A son of sixteen years [is] Uzziah in his reigning, and fifty and two years he hath reigned in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother [is] Jecholiah of Jerusalem.

4 I tika tana mahi ki te titiro a Ihowa, i rite ki nga mea katoa i mea ai tona papa, a Amatia.

And he doth that which is right in the eyes of Jehovah, according to all that Amaziah his father did,

5 I rapua e ia ta te Atua i nga ra o Hakaraia, he tangata mohio tera i nga whakakitenga mai a te Atua. Na i nga ra i rapua ai e ia ta Ihowa, ka meinga ia e te Atua kia kake.

and he is as one seeking God in the days of Zechariah who hath understanding in visions of God: and in the days of his seeking Jehovah, God hath caused him to prosper.

6 I haere ano ia ki te whawhai ki nga Pirihitini, a wawahia ana e ia te taiepa o Kata, me te taiepa o Iapane, me te taiepa o Aharoro; a hanga ana e ia etahi pa ki te whenua o Aharoro, ki roto hoki i nga Pirihitini.

And he goeth forth, and fighteth with the Philistines, and breaketh down the wall of Gath, and the wall of Jabneh, and the wall of Ashdod, and buildeth cities about Ashdod, and among the Philistines.

7 A i awhinatia ia e te Atua i te whawhai ki nga Pirihitini, ki nga Arapi i noho ki Kurupaara, ratou ko nga Meunimi.

And God helpeth him against the Philistines, and against the Arabians who are dwelling in Gur-Baal and the Mehunim.

8 A homai ana e nga Amoni he hakari ki a Utia; paku ana hoki tona ingoa a tae noa ki te tomokanga ki Ihipa; na ka nui atu tona kaha.

And the Ammonites give a present to Uzziah, and his name goeth unto the entering in of Egypt, for he strengthened himself greatly.

9 I hanga ano e Utia etahi pourewa ki Hiruharama, ki te kuwaha i te kokonga, ki te kuwaha i te raorao, ki te koki o te taiepa, hanga ana e ia kia kaha.

And Uzziah buildeth towers in Jerusalem, by the gate of the corner, and by the gate of the valley, and by the angle, and strengtheneth them;

10 I hanga ano e ia etahi pourewa ki te koraha, a keria ana etahi poka wai, he maha, he tini hoki ana kararehe; i te raorao ano, a i te mania: a he kaimahi whenua ana, he kaimahi waina i nga maunga, i nga mara whai hua hoki: he tangata ahu whenua h oki ia.

and he buildeth towers in the wilderness, and diggeth many wells, for he had much cattle, both in the low country and in the plain, husbandmen and vine-dressers in the mountains, and in Carmel; for he was a lover of the ground.

11 He ope ano ta Utia, he hunga whawhai; i haere a ropu ki te whawhai; ko te tokomaha, kei to ratou tauanga e Teiere kaituhituhi raua ko te kaiwhakahaere, ko Hanania, ko tetahi o nga rangatira a te kingi.

And Uzziah hath a force, making war, going forth to the host, by troops, in the number of their reckoning by the hand of Jeiel the scribe and Masseiah the officer, by the hand of Hananiah [one] of the heads of the king.

12 Ko te tokomaha katoa o nga upoko o nga whare o nga matua o nga toa marohirohi, e rua mano e ono rau.

The whole number of heads of the fathers of the mighty ones of valour [is] two thousand and six hundred;

13 Na, ko te ope hei arahi ma ratou, he mea i rakaia, e toru rau e whitu mano e rima rau, he hunga i kaha rawa ta ratou whawhai, hei tuara mo te kingi ki te hoariri.

and by their hand [is] the force of the host, three hundred thousand, and seven thousand, and five hundred warriors, with mighty power to give help to the king against the enemy.

14 Kua pae noa ake i a Utia he whakangungu rakau mo ratou puta noa i te ope, te tao, he potae, he pukupuku, he kopere, he kotaha piu kohatu.

And Uzziah prepareth for them, for all the host, shields, and spears, and helmets, and coats of mail, and bows, even to stones of the slings.

15 I hanga ano e ia etahi mea ki Hiruharama, he mea whakaaro na nga tangata mohio, hei uta ki runga i nga pourewa, i nga pou koki, hei kopere i nga pere, i nga kohatu nunui hoki. A paku ana tona ingoa ki tawhiti; he hanga whakamiharo hoki tona awhi natanga a kaha noa ake ia.

And he maketh in Jerusalem inventions — a device of an inventor — to be on the towers, and on the corners, to shoot with arrows and with great stones, and his name goeth out unto a distance, for he hath been wonderfully helped till that he hath been strong.

16 Otiia i a ia ka kaha nei, ka whakakake tona ngakau, ka mahi i te kino, a takahia ana e ia ta Ihowa, ta tona Atua; i tomo hoki ia ki te temepara o Ihowa, ki te tahu whakakakara ki runga ki te aata whakakakara.

And at his being strong his heart hath been high unto destruction, and he trespasseth against Jehovah his God, and goeth in unto the temple of Jehovah to make perfume upon the altar of perfume.

17 Na ka haere atu i muri i a ia a Ataria tohunga, ratou ko etahi tohunga o Ihowa, e waru tekau, he hunga maia.

And Azariah the priest goeth in after him, and with him priests of Jehovah eighty, sons of valour,

18 Na ka turia atu e ratou a Utia, te kingi, a ka mea ratou ki a ia, E kore e tika mau, e Utia, te tahu whakakakara ki a Ihowa; engari ma nga tohunga, ma nga tama a Arona, i whakatapua nei hei tahu whakakakara. Haere atu i te wahi tapu kua he hoki koe; ehara hoki i te mea e whai kororia ai koe i te Atua, i a Ihowa.

and they stand up against Uzziah the king, and say to him, 'Not for thee, O Uzziah, to make perfume to Jehovah, but for priests, sons of Aaron, who are sanctified to make perfume; go forth from the sanctuary, for thou hast trespassed, and [it is] not to thee for honour from Jehovah God.'

19 Katahi ka riri a Utia; i tona ringa ano he tahu kakara hei tahu whakakakara; a, i a ia e riri ana ki nga tohunga, ka puta ake te repera i tona rae i te aroaro o nga tohunga i roto i te whare o Ihowa, i te taha o te aata tahu whakakakara.

And Uzziah is wroth, and in his hand [is] a censer to make perfume, and in his being wroth with the priests — the leprosy hath risen in his forehead, before the priests, in the house of Jehovah, from beside the altar of perfume.

20 A, ko te tahuritanga o te tino tohunga, o Ataria, ratou ko nga tohunga katoa ki a ia, nana, he repera tera kei tona rae, peia ana ia e ratou i reira; ko ia ano i hohoro te haere, no te mea kua pakia ia e Ihowa.

And Azariah the head priest looketh unto him, and all the priests, and lo, he [is] leprous in his forehead, and they hasten him thence, and also he himself hath hastened to go out, for Jehovah hath plagued him.

21 Na he repera a Utia te kingi a taea noatia te ra i mate ai, a noho ana i te whare motuhake, he repera hoki, he mea momotu atu hoki i te whare o Ihowa; a ko tana tama ko Iotama, te rangatira mo te whare o te kingi, hei kaiwhakarite mo te iwi o te whenua,

And Uzziah the king is a leper unto the day of his death, and inhabiteth a separate house — a leper, for he hath been cut off from the house of Jehovah, and Jotham his son [is] over the house of the king, judging the people of the land.

22 Na ko era atu meatanga a Utia, o mua, o muri, kua oti te tuhituhi e Ihaia poropiti tama a Amoho.

And the rest of the matters of Uzziah, the first and the last, hath Isaiah son of Amoz the prophet written;

23 Heoi kua moe a Utia ki ona matua, a tanumia iho ki ona matua ki te mara i to nga kingi tanumanga; i mea hoki ratou, He repera ia; a ko tana tama, ko Iotama, te kingi i muri i a ia.

and Uzziah lieth with his fathers, and they bury him with his fathers, in the field of the burying-place that the kings have, for they said, 'He [is] a leper;' and reign doth Jotham his son in his stead.
