Chronicles I 28
1 And David assembled all the chief [men] of Israel, the chief of the judges, and all the chief [men] of the courses [of attendance] on the person of the king, and the captains of thousands and hundreds, and the treasurers, and the lords of his substance, and of all the king's property, and of his sons, together with the eunuchs, and the mighty men, and the warriors of the army, at Jerusalem.
Na ka whakaminea e Rawiri nga rangatira katoa o Iharaira, nga rangatira o nga iwi, nga rangatira o nga wehenga i mahi nei ki te kingi, me nga rangatira mano, me nga rangatira rau, me nga rangatira ano o nga taonga, o nga kararehe a te kingi, a an a tama, me nga kaiwhakahaere, me nga marohirohi, me nga tangata maia katoa, ki Hiruharama.
2 And David stood in the midst of the assembly, and said, Hear me, my brethren, and my people: it was in my heart to build a house of rest for the ark of the covenant of the Lord, and a place for the feet of our Lord, and I prepared [materials] suitable for the building:
Na ka tu nga waewae o Kingi Rawiri ki runga, a ka korero ia, Whakarongo mai, e oku tuakana, e oku teina, e toku iwi. He ngakau toku ki te hanga i tetahi whare hei okiokinga mo te aaka o te kawenata a Ihowa, hei turanga waewae mo to tatou Atua; na kua rite aku mea hei hanga.
3 but God said, Thou shalt not build me a house to call my name upon it, for thou art a man of war, and hast shed blood.
Otiia kua ki mai nei te Atua ki ahau, E kore e hanga e koe he whare mo toku ingoa; he tangata whawhai koe, kua whakaheke toto hoki koe.
4 Yet the Lord God of Israel chose me out of the whole house of my father to be king over Israel for ever; and he chose Juda as the kingly [house], and out of the house of Juda [he chose] the house of my father; and among the sons of my father he preferred me, that I should be king over all Israel.
Heoi kua whiriwhiria nei ahau e Ihowa, e te Atua o Iharaira i roto i te whare katoa o toku papa hei kingi mo Iharaira a ake ake. Kua whiriwhiria nei hoki e ia a Hura hei rangatira; me te whare ano o toku papa i roto i te whare o Hura; i whakapai hoki ia ki ahau i roto i nga tama a toku papa, a meinga ana ahau hei kingi mo Iharaira katoa.
5 And of all my sons, (for the Lord has given me many sons, ) he has chosen Solomon my son, to set him on the throne of the kingdom of the Lord over Israel.
A ko tana i whiriwhiri ai o aku tama katoa, he tokomaha hoki nga tama i homai nei e Ihowa ki ahau, ko taku tama, ko Horomona hei noho ki te torona o te kingitanga o Ihowa ki a Iharaira.
6 And God said to me, Solomon thy son shall build my house and my court: for I have chosen him to be my son, and I will be to him a father.
I mea mai ano ia ki ahau, Ko Horomona, ko tau tama, mana e hanga toku whare, me oku marae; kua oti hoki ia te whiriwhiri e ahau hei tama maku, ko ahau hoki hei papa ki a ia.
7 And I will establish his kingdom for ever, if he continue to keep my commandments, and my judgments, as [at] this day.
Ka whakapumautia ano e ahau tona kingitanga ake ake, ki te mau tana mahi i aku whakahau, i aku whakaritenga, ki te penei me tenei inaianei.
8 And now [I charge you] before the whole assembly of the Lord, and in the audience of our God, keep and seek all the commandments of the Lord our God, that ye may inherit the good land, and leave it for your sons to inherit after you for ever.
Na i te mea e titiro mai nei a Iharaira katoa, ara ta Ihowa whakaminenga, a i to tatou Atua hoki e whakarongo mai nei, puritia, rapua nga whakahau katoa a Ihowa, a to koutou Atua, kia riro ai te whenua pai i a koutou, a whakarere tonu iho e kouto u mo a koutou tama i muri i a koutou ake ake.
9 And now, [my] son Solomon, know the God of thy fathers, and serve him with a perfect heart and willing soul: for the Lord searches all hearts, and knows every thought: if thou seek him, he will be found of thee; but if thou shouldest forsake him, he will forsake thee for ever.
Me koe hoki, e taku tama, e Horomona, kia mohio koe ki te Atua o tou papa, kia tapatahi hoki te ngakau, kia hihiko te wairua e mahi ai koe ki a ia; e rapua ana hoki e Ihowa nga mea o nga ngakau katoa, a e mohiotia katoatia ana e ia nga tokonga ak e o nga whakaaro. Ki te rapua ia e koe, ka kitea, a ki te whakarerea ia e koe, ka peia koe e ia a ake ake.
10 See now, for the Lord has chosen thee to build him a house for a sanctuary, be strong and do [it].
Na kia mahara, kua whiriwhiria nei hoki koe e Ihowa hei hanga i te whare mo te wahi tapu: kia kaha ki te mahi.
11 And David gave Solomon his son the plan of the temple, and its buildings, and its treasuries, and its upper chambers, and the inner store-rooms, and the place of the atonement,
Katahi ka hoatu e Rawiri ki tana tama, ki a Horomona te tauira mo te whakamahau o te temepara, mo nga whare ano o reira, mo ona whare taonga, mo ona ruma o runga, mo ona ruma ano i roto, mo te wahi hoki mo te taupoko:
12 and the plan which he had in his mind of the courts of the house of the Lord, and of all the chambers round about, [designed] for the treasuries of the house of God, and of the treasuries of the holy things, and of the chambers for resting:
Me te tauira mo nga mea katoa a te wairua i a ia, mo nga marae o te whare o Ihowa, mo nga whare taonga o te whare o te Atua, mo nga whare taonga mo nga mea kua oti te whakatapu:
13 and [the plan] of the courses of the priests and Levites, for all the work of the service of the house of the Lord, and of the stores of vessels for ministration of the service of the house of the Lord.
Mo nga wehenga o nga tohunga, o nga Riwaiti, mo nga meatanga katoatanga o te mahi mo te whare o Ihowa, mo nga oko katoa hei mea mahi ki te whare o Ihowa:
14 And [he gave him] the account of their weight, both of gold and silver [vessels].
Me te koura, he mea pauna, mo nga mea koura, mo nga mea katoa o tenei mahi, o tenei mahi; he hiriwa ano mo nga mea hiriwa katoa, he mea pauna, mo nga mea katoa o tenei mahi, o tenei mahi:
15 He gave him the weight of the candlesticks, and of the lamps.
Me te taimaha mo nga turanga rama koura, me o ratou rama koura; he mea pauna mo tenei turanga, mo tenei turanga, mo o ratou rama ano: he mea pauna ano mo nga turanga hiriwa, mo te turanga, mo ona rama, he mea whakarite ki te mahi mo tenei turang a, mo tenei turanga:
16 He gave him likewise the weight of the tables of shewbread, of each table of gold, and likewise of the [tables of] silver:
I paunatia ano e ia te koura mo nga tepu taro aroaro, mo tenei tepu, mo tenei tepu; me te hiriwa mo nga tepu hiriwa:
17 also of the flesh-hooks, and vessels for drink-offering, and golden bowls: and the weight of the gold and silver [articles], and censers, [and] bowls, according to the weight of each.
Me te koura parakore mo nga marau, mo nga peihana, mo nga kapu: mo nga pata koura hoki, he mea pauna mo tenei pata, mo tenei pata; me te hiriwa ano, he mea pauna, mo nga pata hiriwa katoa:
18 And he shewed him the weight [of the utensils] of the altar of incense, [which was] of pure gold, and the plan of the chariot of the cherubs that spread out their wings, and overshadowed the ark of the covenant of the Lord.
Mo te aata tahu whakakakara ano he koura parakore, he mea pauna; he koura mo te tauira o te hariata o nga kerupima e roha nei nga parirau hei hipoki mo te aaka o te kawenata a Ihowa.
19 David gave all to Solomon in the Lord's handwriting, according to the knowledge given him of the work of the pattern.
Ko tenei katoa, e ai ta Rawiri, he mea tuhituhi, he mea whakaatu mai na Ihowa ki ahau; i runga hoki i ahau tona ringa; ara nga mea katoa o tenei tauira.
20 And David said to Solomon his son, Be strong, and play the man, and do: fear not, neither be terrified; for the Lord my God [is] with thee; he will not forsake thee, and will not fail thee, until thou hast finished all the work of the service of the house of the Lord. And behold the pattern of the temple, even his house, and its treasury, and the upper chambers, and the inner store-rooms, and the place of propitiation, and the plan of the house of the Lord.
I mea ano a Rawiri ki tana tama, ki a Horomona, Kia kaha, kia maia, mahia, kaua e wehi, kaua e pawera; kei a koe na hoki a Ihowa, te Atua, ara toku Atua. E kore ia e whakarere i a koe, e kore ano koe e mahue i a ia, kia oti ra ano nga mea katoa mo te mahi ki te whare o Ihowa.
21 And see, [here are] the courses of the priests and Levites for all the service of the house of the Lord, and [there shall be] with thee [men] for every workmanship, and every one of ready skill in every art: also the chief men and all the people, [ready] for all thy commands.
Nana, nga wehenga o nga tohunga, o nga Riwaiti, kei a koe ratou mo nga mahi katoa ki te whare o te Atua: kei a koe ano, mo nga meatanga katoa, nga tangata mohio katoa e hihiko noa ana, mo nga mahi katoa; me nga rangatira, me te iwi katoa; kei a koe tonu te kupu katoa.
