1 Kings 21

1 And it came to pass after these things, that Naboth the Jezreelite had a vineyard, which was in Jezreel, hard by the palace of Ahab king of Samaria.

A, i muri i enei mea, he mara waina ta Napoto Ietereeri i Ietereere, i te taha tonu o te whare o Ahapa kingi o Hamaria.

2 And Ahab spake unto Naboth, saying, Give me thy vineyard, that I may have it for a garden of herbs, because it is near unto my house; and I will give thee for it a better vineyard than it: or, if it seem good to thee, I will give thee the worth of it in money.

Na ka korero a Ahapa ki a Napoto, ka mea, Homai tau mara waina ki ahau, hei kari otaota maku, e tata ana hoki ki te taha o toku whare, a me hoatu e ahau tetahi mara waina, he pai ke atu i tenei hei utu; ki te pai ranei ki tau titiro, me utu ki te moni.

3 And Naboth said to Ahab, Jehovah forbid it me, that I should give the inheritance of my fathers unto thee.

Na ka mea a Napoto ki a Ahapa, E! ma Ihowa ahau e arai kei hoatu e ahau te kainga tupu o oku matua ki a koe!

4 And Ahab came into his house heavy and displeased because of the word which Naboth the Jezreelite had spoken to him; for he had said, I will not give thee the inheritance of my fathers. And he laid him down upon his bed, and turned away his face, and would eat no bread.

Na haere ana a Ahapa ki tona whare; pouri ana, riri ana, mo te kupu i korero ai a Napoto Ietereeri ki a ia; mo tana i mea ra, E kore e hoatu e ahau te kainga tupu o oku matua ki a koe. Na takoto ana ia ki tona moenga, me te ahu ke ano tona mata, kihai hoki i kai taro.

5 But Jezebel his wife came to him, and said unto him, Why is thy spirit so sad, that thou eatest no bread?

Katahi tana wahine, a Ietepere, ka haere mai ki a ia, ka mea ki a ia, He aha tou wairua i pouri ai, te kai taro ai koe?

6 And he said unto her, Because I spake unto Naboth the Jezreelite, and said unto him, Give me thy vineyard for money; or else, if it please thee, I will give thee [another] vineyard for it: and he answered, I will not give thee my vineyard.

Na ka mea tera ki a ia, I korero ahau ki a Napoto Ietereeri, i mea ki a ia, Homai tau mara waina ki ahau, me utu ki te moni: ki te pai ranei koe, me hoatu e ahau tetahi atu mara ki a koe hei utu. Na ka mea mai ia, E kore e hoatu e ahau taku mara waina ki a koe.

7 And Jezebel his wife said unto him, Dost thou now govern the kingdom of Israel? arise, and eat bread, and let thy heart be merry: I will give thee the vineyard of Naboth the Jezreelite.

Na ka ki atu a Ietepere, tana wahine, ki a ia, Ko koe ranei te kaiwhakahaere o te kingitanga o Iharaira? Whakatika ki te kai taro mau, kia koa tou ngakau. Maku e hoatu te mara waina a taua Ietereeri, a Napoto, ki a koe.

8 So she wrote letters in Ahab’s name, and sealed them with his seal, and sent the letters unto the elders and to the nobles that were in his city, [and] that dwelt with Naboth.

Heoi tuhituhia ana etahi pukapuka e ia, no Ahapa te ingoa, hiri rawa ki tana hiri; a tukua ana aua pukapuka ki nga kaumatua, ki nga rangatira i roto i tona pa, a e noho tahi ana me Napoto.

9 And she wrote in the letters, saying, Proclaim a fast, and set Naboth on high among the people:

I tuhituhi ia ki te pukapuka, i mea, Karangatia he nohopuku, ka whakanoho i a Napoto ki runga ake i te iwi:

10 and set two men, base fellows, before him, and let them bear witness against him, saying, Thou didst curse God and the king. And then carry him out, and stone him to death.

Ka whakanoho ano i etahi tangata, he tama na Periara, kia tokorua, ki tona aroaro, hei whakaatu i tona he, hei ki, Nau i kanga te Atua raua ko te kingi. Katahi ka kawe i a ia ki waho, ka aki ki te kohatu, kia mate.

11 And the men of his city, even the elders and the nobles who dwelt in his city, did as Jezebel had sent unto them, according as it was written in the letters which she had sent unto them.

Na ka meatia e nga tangata o tona pa, ara e nga kaumatua ratou ko nga rangatira e noho ana i tona pa, te mea i tono tangata ai a Ietepere ki a ratou, te mea i tuhituhia ki nga pukapuka i tukua nei e ia ki a ratou.

12 They proclaimed a fast, and set Naboth on high among the people.

I karangatia he nohopuku, a whakanohoia ana a Napoto ki runga ake i te iwi.

13 And the two men, the base fellows, came in and sat before him: and the base fellows bare witness against him, even against Naboth, in the presence of the people, saying, Naboth did curse God and the king. Then they carried him forth out of the city, and stoned him to death with stones.

Na ka haere mai nga tangata tokorua, nga tama a Periara, ka noho i tona aroaro: a ka whakaatu aua tangata a Periara i te he mona, ara mo Napoto i te aroaro o te iwi; i mea raua, I kanga e Napoto te Atua raua ko te kingi. Na kawea ana ia e ratou ki waho o te pa, a akina ana ki te kohatu, a mate noa ia.

14 Then they sent to Jezebel, saying, Naboth is stoned, and is dead.

Katahi ratou ka tono tangata ki a Ietepere, ka mea, Kua oti a Napoto te aki ki te kohatu, a kua mate.

15 And it came to pass, when Jezebel heard that Naboth was stoned, and was dead, that Jezebel said to Ahab, Arise, take possession of the vineyard of Naboth the Jezreelite, which he refused to give thee for money; for Naboth is not alive, but dead.

A, i te rongonga o Ietepere kua oti a Napoto te aki ki te kohatu, a kua mate, na ka mea a Ietepere ki a Ahapa, Whakatika, tangohia te mara a taua Ietereeri, a Napoto, kihai na ia i pai kia homai ki a koe hei utu moni; kahore hoki a Napoto i te o ra, kua mate.

16 And it came to pass, when Ahab heard that Naboth was dead, that Ahab rose up to go down to the vineyard of Naboth the Jezreelite, to take possession of it.

A ka rongo a Ahapa kua mate a Napoto, na whakatika ana a Ahapa, haere ana ki raro, ki te mara waina a taua Ietereeri, a Napoto, kia tangohia e ia.

17 And the word of Jehovah came to Elijah the Tishbite, saying,

Na ka puta te kupu a Ihowa ki a Iraia Tihipi; i ki ia,

18 Arise, go down to meet Ahab king of Israel, who dwelleth in Samaria: behold, he is in the vineyard of Naboth, whither he is gone down to take possession of it.

Whakatika, haere ki raro, ki te whakatau i a Ahapa kingi o Iharaira i Hamaria: kei te mara waina ia a Napoto, kua riro hoki ki reira ki te tango.

19 And thou shalt speak unto him, saying, Thus saith Jehovah, Hast thou killed, and also taken possession? And thou shalt speak unto him, saying, Thus saith Jehovah, In the place where dogs licked the blood of Naboth shall dogs lick thy blood, even thine.

Korero ki a ia, mea atu, Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, Kua patu iana koe? kua riro ano i a koe? Ki atu ano ki a ia, mea atu, Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, Ko te wahi i mitikia ai e nga kuri nga toto o Napoto, ka mitikia ano e nga kuri ki reira ou toto, ae ra, ou ano.

20 And Ahab said to Elijah, Hast thou found me, O mine enemy? And he answered, I have found thee, because thou hast sold thyself to do that which is evil in the sight of Jehovah.

Na ka mea a Ahapa ki a Iraia, Kua mau ahau i a koe, e toku hoariri? Ano ra ko tera, Kua mau ano, no te mea kua hoko koe i a koe ki te mahi i te kino ki te aroaro o Ihowa.

21 Behold, I will bring evil upon thee, and will utterly sweep thee away and will cut off from Ahab every man-child, and him that is shut up and him that is left at large in Israel:

Nana, tenei ahau te tari kino atu nei ki runga ki a koe, a ka tahia atu ou uri; ka hautopea atu nga tamariki tane katoa i a Ahapa, me nga mea i tutakina ki roto, me nga mea i mahue i roto i a Iharaira.

22 and I will make thy house like the house of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, and like the house of Baasha the son of Ahijah for the provocation wherewith thou hast provoked me to anger, and hast made Israel to sin.

Ka meinga ano e ahau tou whare kia rite ki te whare o Ieropoama tama a Nepata, ki te whare o Paaha tama a Ahia, mo te whakapataritari i whakapataritari ai koe i ahau, mou i hara ai a Iharaira.

23 And of Jezebel also spake Jehovah, saying, The dogs shall eat Jezebel by the rampart of Jezreel.

I korerotia ano a Ietepere e Ihowa, i mea ia, Ka kainga a Ietepere e nga kuri ki te parepare o Ietepere.

24 Him that dieth of Ahab in the city the dogs shall eat; and him that dieth in the field shall the birds of the heavens eat.

Ko te hunga o Ahapa e mate ki te pa ma nga kuri e kai; ko nga mea hoki e mate ki te parae ma nga manu o te rangi e kai.

25 (But there was none like unto Ahab, who did sell himself to do that which was evil in the sight of Jehovah, whom Jezebel his wife stirred up.

Heoi kahore he rite mo Ahapa, i hoko nei i a ia ki te mahi kino ki te aroaro o Ihowa; he mea akiaki na tana wahine, na Ietepere.

26 And he did very abominably in following idols, according to all that the Amorites did, whom Jehovah cast out before the children of Israel.)

Whakarihariha rawa tana haere ki te whai i nga whakapakoko: rite tonu tana ki nga mea katoa i mea ai nga Amori i peia nei e Ihowa i te aroaro o nga tama a Iharaira.

27 And it came to pass, when Ahab heard those words, that he rent his clothes, and put sackcloth upon his flesh, and fasted, and lay in sackcloth, and went softly.

A, no te rongonga o Ahapa i enei kupu, na haea ana e ia ona kakahu, meatia ana he kakahu taratara ki tona kiri, a nohopuku ana, takoto ana ko taua mea taratara nei te kakahu, a mahaki ana te haere.

28 And the word of Jehovah came to Elijah the Tishbite, saying,

Na ka puta te kupu a Ihowa ki a Iraia Tihipi, i mea ia,

29 Seest thou how Ahab humbleth himself before me? because he humbleth himself before me, I will not bring the evil in his days; but in his son’s day will I bring the evil upon his house.

Kua kite koe i ta Ahapa whakangohengohe nei i a ia ki toku aroaro, na e kore e taria e ahau tenei kino i ona ra: engari hei nga ra o tana tama ahau tari ai i te kino ki tona whare.
