2 Kings 12
1 In the seventh year of Jehu's rule, Jehoash became king; and he was ruling for forty years in Jerusalem; his mother's name was Zibiah of Beer-sheba.
No te whitu o nga tau o Iehu i kingi ai a Iehoaha; a e wha tekau ona tau i kingi ai ia ki Hiruharama: a, ko te ingoa o tona whaea, ko Tipia o Peerehepa.
2 Jehoash did what was right in the eyes of the Lord all his days, because he was guided by the teaching of Jehoiada the priest.
A tika tonu nga mahi a Iehoaha ki te titiro a Ihowa i ona ra katoa i akona ai ia e Iehoiara tohunga.
3 But the high places were not taken away; the people went on making offerings and burning them in the high places.
Ko nga wahi tiketike ia kihai i whakakahoretia; i patu whakahere tonu te iwi, i tahu whakakakara ki runga ki nga wahi tiketike.
4 And Jehoash said to the priests, All the money of the holy things, which comes into the house of the Lord, (the amount fixed for every man's payment, ) and all the money given by any man freely from the impulse of his heart,
Na i mea a Iehoaha ki nga tohunga, Ko te moni katoa o nga mea e whakatapua ana, e kawea ana ki te whare o Ihowa, ko te moni o nga tangata e haere atu ana i te tauanga, ko te moni e whakaritea ai tera, tera, ko nga moni katoa e puta ake i roto i t e ngakau o tetahi kia kawea mai ki roto ki te whare o Ihowa,
5 Let the priests take, every man from his friends and neighbours, to make good what is damaged in the house, wherever it is to be seen.
Me tango mai e nga tohunga, e tera, e tera i tana tangata i mohio ai: a ma ratou e hanga nga wahi pakaru o te whare i nga wahi katoa e kitea ai he pakaru.
6 But in the twenty-third year of King Jehoash, the priests had not made good the damaged parts of the house.
I te rua tekau ma toru ia o nga tau o Kingi Iehoaha kahore ano i hanga nga wahi pakaru o te whare e nga tohunga.
7 Then King Jehoash sent for Jehoiada the priest, and the other priests, and said to them, Why have you not made good what is damaged in the house? now take no more money from your neighbours, but give it for the building up of the house.
Katahi ka karanga a Kingi Iehoaha ki a Iehoiara tohunga, ki era atu tohunga hoki, a ka mea ki a ratou, He aha koutou te hanga ai i nga wahi pakaru o te whare? Na kati koutou te tango moni i a koutou tangata i mohio ai, engari me homai mo nga wahi pakaru o te whare.
8 So the priests made an agreement to take no more money from the people, and not to make good what was damaged in the house.
Na whakaae ana nga tohunga kia kaua ratou e tango moni mai ano i te iwi, kia kaua hoki e hanga i nga wahi pakaru o te whare.
9 But Jehoiada the priest took a chest, and making a hole in the cover of it, put it by the altar, on the right side when one comes into the house of the Lord; and the priests who kept the door put in it regularly all the money which was taken into the house of the Lord.
Otiia i mau a Iehoiara tohunga ki tetahi pouaka, a pokaia ana e ia he kohao ki tona taupoki, whakatakotoria ana ki te taha o te aata, ki te taha ki matau, i te mea ka haere tetahi ki te whare o Ihowa: a tukua iho ana ki roto e nga tohunga tiaki o te tatau nga moni katoa i kawea mai ki te whare o Ihowa.
10 And when they saw that there was much money in the chest, the king's scribe and the high priest came and put it in bags, noting the amount of all the money there was in the house of the Lord.
A, ka kitea kua nui te moni i roto i te pouaka, na ka haere te kaituhituhi a te kingi raua ko te tino tohunga, ka whaowhina ki roto ki nga peeke, a taua ana te moni i kitea i roto i te whare o Ihowa.
11 And the money which was measured out they gave regularly to those who were responsible for overseeing the work, and these gave it in payment to the woodworkers and the builders who were working on the house of the Lord,
Na hoatu ana e ratou te moni i paunatia ra ki nga ringa o nga kaimahi i te mahi, o nga kaitohutohu i te whare o Ihowa: a na ratou i utu atu ki nga kamura, ki nga kaihanga i mahia ai te whare o Ihowa,
12 And to the wall-builders and the stone-cutters, and to get wood and cut stone for building up the broken parts of the house of the Lord, and for everything needed to put the house in good order.
Ki nga kaimahi kohatu, ki nga kaitarai kohatu; hei hoko ano i nga rakau, i nga kohatu tarai, hei hanga mo nga wahi pakaru o te whare o Ihowa, hei utu hoki mo nga mea katoa i riro hei hanga mo te whare.
13 But the money was not used for making silver cups or scissors or basins or wind-instruments or any vessels of gold or silver for the house of the Lord;
Otiia kihai i hanga mo te whare o Ihowa he kapu hiriwa, he kuku, he peihana, he tetere, he oko koura, he oko hiriwa, ki te moni i kawea mai ki te whare o Ihowa:
14 But it was all given to the workmen who were building up the house.
I hoatu hoki ki nga kaimahi i te mahi, hei hanga i nga wahi pakaru o te whare o Ihowa.
15 And they did not get any statement of accounts from the men to whom the money was given for the workmen, for they made use of it with good faith.
Kihai hoki i uiuia nga meatanga a aua tangata i hoatu nei e ratou te moni ki o ratou ringa kia hoatu ki nga kaimahi i te mahi; he pono hoki ta ratou mahi.
16 The money of the offerings for error and the sin-offerings was not taken into the house of the Lord; it was the priests'.
Ko te moni mo te he, me te moni mo te hara, kihai i kawea mai e ratou ki te whare o Ihowa: i nga tohunga tena.
17 Then Hazael, king of Aram, went up against Gath and took it; and his purpose was to go up to Jerusalem.
Katahi ka haere a Hataere kingi o Hiria, whawhai ana ki Kata, a horo ana i a ia: na ka anga te kanohi o Hataere, ka mea ki te haere ki runga, ki Hiruharama.
18 Then Jehoash, king of Judah, took all the holy things which Jehoshaphat and Jehoram and Ahaziah his fathers, the kings of Judah, had given to the Lord, together with the things he himself had given, and all the gold in the Temple store and in the king's house, and sent it to Hazael, king of Aram; and he went away from Jerusalem.
Na ka mau a Iehoaha kingi o Hura ki nga mea tapu katoa i whakatapua e ona matua, e Iehohapata, e Iehorama, e Ahatia, e nga kingi o Hura, ki ana mea tapu ano, ki te koura katoa i kitea i roto i nga toa taonga o te whare o Ihowa, o te whare hoki o te kingi, a tukua ana ki a Hataere kingi o Hiria: a haere atu ana ia i Hiruharama.
19 Now the rest of the acts of Joash, and all he did, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Israel?
Na, ko era atu meatanga a Ioaha me ana mahi katoa, kahore ianei i tuhituhia ki te pukapuka o nga meatanga o nga ra o nga kingi o Hura?
20 And his servants made a secret design and put Joash to death at the house of Millo on the way down to Silla.
Na ka whakatika ana tangata, a whakatupuria ana e ratou he he mona, a patua iho a Ioaha ki te whare o Miro i te heketanga iho ki Hira.
21 And Jozacar, the son of Shimeath, and Jehozabad, the son of Shomer, his servants, came to him and put him to death; and they put him into the earth with his fathers in the town of David; and Amaziah his son became king in his place.
Na ana tangata hoki, na Iotaka tama a Himeata raua ko Iehotapara tama a Homere ia i patu, a mate iho; na tanumia ana ia ki ona matua ki te pa o Rawiri: a ko Amatia, ko tana tama, te kingi i muri i a ia.
