Nehemiah 12
1 Now these are the priests and Levites who went up with Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel and with Jeshua: Seraiah, Jeremiah, Ezra,
Na ko nga tohunga enei, me nga Riwaiti, i haere tahi i a Herupapera tama a Haratiera raua ko Hehua: ara ko Heraia, ko Heremaia, ko Etera,

Ko Haru, ko Amoko, ko Hirikia, ko Ieraia. Ko nga ariki enei o nga tohunga, o o ratou teina hoki, i nga ra o Hehua.
8 The Levites were Jeshua, Binnui, Kadmiel, Sherebiah, Judah, and Mattaniah, who, with his associates, led the songs of thanksgiving.
Na, ko nga Riwaiti; ko Hehua, ko Pinui, ko Karamiere, ko Herepia, ko Hura, ko Matania, kei a ia nei te tikanga mo te whakawhetai, kei a ia, ratou ko ona teina.
9 Bakbukiah and Unni, their associates, stood across from them in the services.
Na ko Pakapukia raua ko Uni, o ratou teina, kei to ratou aroaro i nga tiakanga.
10 Jeshua was the father of Joiakim, Joiakim was the father of Eliashib, Eliashib was the father of Joiada,
Na ka whanau ake ta Hehua; ko Ioiakimi; whanau ake ta Ioiakimi, ko Eriahipi; whanau ake ta Eriahipi, ko Ioiara.
11 Joiada was the father of Jonathan, and Jonathan was the father of Jaddua.
Whanau ake ta Ioiara, ko Honatana; whanau ake ta Honatana, ko Tarua;
12 In the days of Joiakim, these were the heads of the priestly families: of the family of Seraiah, Meraiah; of Jeremiah, Hananiah;
Na, i nga ra o Ioiakimi, tera nga tohunga, ko nga ariki o nga whare o nga matua; ta Heraia, ko Meraia; ta Heremaia, ko Hanania;

22 In the days of Eliashib, Joiada, Johanan, and Jaddua, during the reign of Darius the Persian, the heads of the families of the Levites and priests were recorded.
Ko nga Riwaiti i nga ra i a Eriahipi, i a Ioiara, i a Iohanana, i a Tarua, he mea tuhituhi hei ariki mo nga whare o nga matua: me nga tohunga ano i te wa e kingi ana a Tariuha o Pahia.
23 As for the descendants of Levi, the family heads up to the days of Johanan son of Eliashib were recorded in the Book of the Chronicles.
Ko nga tama a Riwai, ko nga ariki o nga whare o nga matua, he mea tuhituhi ki te pukapuka o nga ra, a tae noa ki nga ra o Iohanana tama a Eriahipi.
24 The leaders of the Levites were Hashabiah, Sherebiah, and Jeshua son of Kadmiel, along with their associates, who stood across from them to give praise and thanksgiving as one section alternated with the other, as prescribed by David the man of God.
A ko nga ariki o nga Riwaiti; ko Hahapia, ko Herepia, ko Hehua tama a Karamiere, me o ratou teina ano i te ritenga mai o ratou, hei whakamoemiti, hei whakawhetai; ko te mea hoki ia i whakahaua e ta te Atua tangata, e Rawiri, tenei tiakanga i te ritenga mai o tenei tiakanga.
25 Mattaniah, Bakbukiah, Obadiah, Meshullam, Talmon, and Akkub were gatekeepers who guarded the storerooms at the gates.
Ko Matania, ko Pakapukia, ko Oparia, ko Mehurama, ko Taramono, ko Akupu nga kaitiaki kuwaha, hei tiaki i nga whare taonga i nga kuwaha.
26 They served in the days of Joiakim son of Jeshua, the son of Jozadak, and in the days of Nehemiah the governor and Ezra the priest and scribe.
No nga ra enei i a Ioiakimi tama a Hehua tama a Iohereke, no nga ra ano hoki i a Nehemia kawana, i a Etera tohunga, i te karaipi ra.
27 At the dedication of the wall of Jerusalem, the Levites were sought out from all their homes and brought to Jerusalem to celebrate the joyous dedication with thanksgiving and singing, accompanied by cymbals, harps, and lyres.
Na, i te tainga o te kawa o te taiepa o Hiruharama, i rapua nga Riwaiti i o ratou wahi katoa, i meatia kia kawea ki Hiruharama, kia taia hoki te kawa i runga i te koa, i te whakawhetai, i te waiata, i te himipora, i te hatere, i te hapa.
28 The singers were also assembled from the region around Jerusalem, from the villages of the Netophathites,
I huihui mai ano nga tama a nga kaiwaiata i te mania i nga taha katoa o Hiruharama, i nga kainga ano hoki o nga Netopati;
29 from Beth-gilgal, and from the fields of Geba and Azmaveth, for they had built villages for themselves around Jerusalem.
I Petekirikara ano, i nga mara hoki o Kepa, o Atamawete; i hanga hoki e nga kaiwaiata he kainga mo ratou ki nga taha katoa o Hiruharama.
30 After the priests and Levites had purified themselves, they purified the people, the gates, and the wall.
Na kei te pure nga tohunga ratou ko nga Riwaiti i a ratou; kei te pure hoki i te iwi, i nga kuwaha, i te taiepa.
31 Then I brought the leaders of Judah up on the wall, and I appointed two great thanksgiving choirs. One was to proceed along the top of the wall to the right, toward the Dung Gate.
Katahi ka kawea e ahau nga rangatira o Hura ki runga ki te taiepa, a whakaritea ana e ahau kia rua nga ropu nui hei whakawhetai, kotahi hei haere ki matau i runga i te taiepa whaka te keti paranga paru:
32 Hoshaiah and half the leaders of Judah followed,
A i muri i a ratou ka haere ko Hohaia me tetahi tanga o nga rangatira o Hura,
33 along with Azariah, Ezra, Meshullam,
A Ataria, a Etera, a Mehurama,
34 Judah, Benjamin, Shemaiah, Jeremiah,
A Hura, a Pineamine, a Hemaia, a Heremaia,
35 and some of the priests with trumpets, and also Zechariah son of Jonathan, the son of Shemaiah, the son of Mattaniah, the son of Micaiah, the son of Zaccur, the son of Asaph,
Me etahi o nga tama a nga tohunga e mau tetere ana; me Hakaraia tama a Honatana, tama a Hemaia, tama a Matania, tama a Mikaia, tama a Takuru, tama a Ahapa:
36 and his associates—Shemaiah, Azarel, Milalai, Gilalai, Maai, Nethanel, Judah, and Hanani—with the musical instruments prescribed by David the man of God. Ezra the scribe led the procession.
Me ona teina, ara a Hemaia, a Atareere, a Mirarai, a Kirarai, a Maai, a Netaneere, a Hura, a Hanani, e mau ana i nga mea whakatangi a ta te Atua tangata, a Rawiri: a ko Etera karaipi kei to ratou aroaro.
37 At the Fountain Gate they climbed the steps of the City of David on the ascent to the wall and passed above the house of David to the Water Gate on the east.
Na i te keti o te puna wai, i te ritenga mai ano o ratou, ka haere atu ratou i nga kaupae o te pa o Rawiri, i te pinakitanga o te taiepa i runga i te whare o Rawiri, tae noa ki te keti wai ki te rawhiti.
38 The second thanksgiving choir proceeded to the left, and I followed it with half the people along the top of the wall, past the Tower of the Ovens to the Broad Wall,
Na, ko tera atu ropu o nga kaiwhakawhetai i haere ki te whakatutaki i a ratou, me ahau i muri i a ratou, me tetahi tanga o te iwi i runga i te taiepa, i runga o te taumaihi oumu tae noa ki te taiepa whanui:
39 over the Gate of Ephraim, the Jeshanah Gate, the Fish Gate, the Tower of Hananel, and the Tower of the Hundred, as far as the Sheep Gate. And they stopped at the Gate of the Guard.
I runga hoki i te keti o Eparaima, i te keti tawhito, i te keti ika, i te taumaihi o Hananeere, i te taumaihi ano o Meaha tae noa ki te keti hipi: a tu tonu ratou ki te keti i te whare herehere.
40 The two thanksgiving choirs then stood in the house of God, as did I, along with the half of the officials accompanying me,
Na tu ana nga ropu e rua o nga kaiwhakawhetai ki te whare o te Atua, matou tahi ko tetahi tanga o nga rangatira,
41 as well as the priests with their trumpets—Eliakim, Maaseiah, Miniamin, Micaiah, Elioenai, Zechariah, and Hananiah—
Ko nga tohunga; ko Eriakimi, ko Maaheia, ko Miniamini, ko Mikaia, ko Erioenai, ko Hakaraia, ko Hanania, e mau tetere ana;
42 and also Maaseiah, Shemaiah, Eleazar, Uzzi, Jehohanan, Malchijah, Elam, and Ezer. Then the choirs sang out under the direction of Jezrahiah.
Ko Maaheia, ko Hemaia, ko Ereatara, ko Uti, ko Iehohanana, ko Marakia, ko Erama, ko Etere. Na nui atu te waiata a nga kaiwaiata ratou ko Itirahia, ko te kaitohutohu.
43 On that day they offered great sacrifices, rejoicing because God had given them great joy. The women and children also rejoiced, so that the joy of Jerusalem was heard from afar.
He nui ano nga patunga tapu i patua e ratou i taua rangi, a koa ana ratou: he nui hoki te koa i meinga ai ratou e te Atua kia koa. I koa hoki nga wahine me nga tamariki, no ka rangona mai te koa o Hiruharama i tawhiti.
44 And on that same day men were appointed over the rooms that housed the supplies, contributions, firstfruits, and tithes. The portions specified by the Law for the priests and Levites were gathered into these storerooms from the fields of the villages, because Judah rejoiced over the priests and Levites who were serving.
I whakaritea ano i taua wa etahi kaitirotiro i nga ruma mo nga taonga, mo nga whakahere hapahapai, mo nga hua matamua, mo nga whakatekau; ma ratou e kohikohi ki reira i nga mara o nga pa, nga wahi i whakaritea e te ture ma nga tohunga ratou ko n ga Riwaiti: i koa hoki a Hura ki nga tohunga, ki nga Riwaiti, ki nga mea e minita ana.
45 They performed the service of their God and the service of purification, along with the singers and gatekeepers, as David and his son Solomon had prescribed.
Na kei te tiaki ratou i nga mea o to ratou Atua, kei te tiaki hoki i te purenga, a i pera ano nga kaiwaiata, me nga kaitiaki kuwaha; rite tonu ki te whakahau a Rawiri raua ko tana tama, ko Horomona.
46 For long ago, in the days of David and Asaph, there were directors for the singers and for the songs of praise and thanksgiving to God.
No nga ra hoki o Rawiri raua ko Ahapa, nonamata iho, tera ano te rangatira mo nga kaiwaiata, me nga waiata whakamoemiti, me nga whakawhetai ki te Atua.
47 So in the days of Zerubbabel and Nehemiah, all Israel contributed the daily portions for the singers and gatekeepers. They also set aside daily portions for the Levites, and the Levites set aside daily portions for the descendants of Aaron.
I nga ra hoki i a Herupapera, i nga ra ano i a Nehemia, i homai e Iharaira katoa nga wahi ma nga kaiwaiata, ma nga kaitiaki kuwaha, te wahi mo tenei ra, mo tenei ra: i whakatapua ano e ratou nga mea tapu ma nga Riwaiti; a ko nga Riwaiti hei whak atapu ma nga tama a Arona.
