< Chronicles II 36 >

1 And the people of the land took Joachaz the son of Josias, and anointed him, and made him king over Jerusalem in the room of his father.
Katahi ka mau te iwi o te whenua ki a Iehoahata tama a Hohia, a meinga ana ia e ratou hei kingi i muri i tona papa ki Hiruharama.
2 Joachaz [was] twenty-three years old when he began to reign, and he reigned three months in Jerusalem: and his mother's name was Amital, daughter of Jeremias of Lobna. And he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord, according to all that his fathers had done. And Pharao Nechao bound him in Deblatha in the land of Aemath, that he might not reign in Jerusalem.
E rua tekau ma toru nga tau o Iehoahata i tona kingitanga, a e toru nga marama i kingi ai ia ki Hiruharama.
3 And the king brought him over to Egypt; and imposed a tribute on the land, a hundred talents of silver and a talent of gold.
Na ka whakataka ia e te kingi o Ihipa i Hiruharama; a tangohia ana e tera i te whenua, hei utu he, kotahi rau taranata hiriwa me te taranata koura.
4 And Pharao Nechao made Eliakim the son of Josias king over Juda in the room of his father Josias, and changed his name [to] Joakim. And Pharao Nechao took his brother Joachaz and brought him into Egypt, and he died there: but [he] had given the silver and gold to Pharao. At that time the land began to be taxed to give the money at the command of Pharao; and every one as he could borrowed the silver and the gold of the people of the land, to give to Pharao Nechao.
I meinga ano tona tuakana a Eriakimi e te kingi o Ihipa hei kingi mo Hura, mo Hiruharama: whakawhitia ketia ake tona ingoa ko Iehoiakimi. Na tangohia ana to tenei teina, a Iehoahata, e Neko, mauria ana e ia ki Ihipa.
5 Joachim was twenty-five years old when he began to reign, and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem: and he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord.
E rua tekau ma rima nga tau o Iehoiakimi i tona kingitanga, a kotahi tekau ma tahi nga tau i kingi ai ia ki Hiruharama; he kino ano hoki tana mahi ki te titiro a Ihowa, a tona Atua.
6 And Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon came up against him, and bound him with brazen fetters, and carried him away to Babylon.
Whakaekea ana ia e Nepukaneka kingi o Papurona, herea iho ki te mekameka, hei kawe i a ia ki Papurona.
7 And he carried away a part of the vessels of the house of the Lord to Babylon, and put them in his temple in Babylon.
I mauria ano e Nepukaneha nga oko o te whare o Ihowa ki Papurona, hoatu ana e ia ki roto ki tona temepara i Papurona.
8 And the rest of the acts of Joakim, and all that he did, behold, [are] not these things written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Juda? And Joakim slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in Ganozae: and Jechonias his son reigned in his stead.
Na, ko era atu meatanga a Iehoiakimi, me ana mea whakarihariha i mea ai, me ana tikanga i kitea, nana, kei te tuhituhi i roto i te pukapuka o nga kingi o Iharaira, o Hura: a ko tana tama, ko Iehoiakini, te kingi i muri i a ia.
9 Jechonias [was] eight years old when he began to reign, and he reigned three months and ten days in Jerusalem, and did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord.
E waru nga tau o Iehoiakini i tona kingitanga, a e toru nga marama tekau nga ra i kingi ai ia ki Hiruharama. A he kino tana mahi ki ta Ihowa titiro.
10 And at the turn of the year, king Nabuchodonosor sent, and brought him to Babylon, with the precious vessels of the house of the Lord, and made Sedekias his father's brother king over Juda and Jerusalem.
Na, i te takanga o te tau, ka tono tangata a Kingi Nepukaneha, a mauria ana ia ki Papurona, me nga oko papai o te whare o Ihowa; a meinga ana e ia tona tuakana a Terekia hei kingi mo Hura, mo Hiruharama.
11 Sedekias [was] twenty-one years old when he began to reign, and be reigned eleven years in Jerusalem.
E rua tekau ma tahi nga tau o Terekia i tona kingitanga, a kotahi tekau ma tahi nga tau i kingi ai ia ki Hiruharama.
12 And he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord his God: he was not ashamed before the prophet Jeremias, nor because of the word of the Lord;
A he kino tana mahi ki te titiro a Ihowa, a tona Atua; kihai hoki ia i whakaiti i a ia i te aroaro o te poropiti, o Heremaia, e korero ana i ta te mangai o Ihowa.
13 in that he rebelled against king Nabuchodonosor, which he adjured him by God [not to do]: but he stiffened his neck, and hardened his heart, so as not to return to the Lord God of Israel.
I whakakeke ano hoki ia ki a Kingi Nepukaneha, nana nei ia i whakaoati ki te Atua; heoi whakamarokia ana e ia tona kaki, whakapakeketia ana e ia tona ngakau, kihai i tahuri ki a Ihowa, ki te Atua o Iharaira.
14 And all the great men of Juda, and the priests, and the people of the land transgressed abundantly in the abominations of the heathen, and polluted the house of the Lord which [was] in Jerusalem.
Me nga rangatira o nga tohunga, o te iwi, nui atu to ratou kino; i rite tonu ki nga mea whakarihariha katoa o nga tauiwi; whakapokea iho e ratou te whare o Ihowa i whakatapua nei e ia, ki Hiruharama.
15 And the Lord God of their fathers sent by the hand of his prophets; rising early and sending his messengers, for he spared his people, and his sanctuary.
A i unga tangata a Ihowa, te Atua o o ratou matua, ara ana karere ki a ratou; maranga wawe ana ia ki te tono, he tohu hoki nana i tana iwi, i tona nohoanga.
16 Nevertheless they sneered at his messengers, and set at nothing his words, and mocked his prophets, until the wrath of the Lord rose up against his people, till there was no remedy.
Otiia tawaia iho e ratou nga karere a te Atua, whakahaweatia ana ana kupu, tukinotia ana ana poropiti, a ara noa te riri o Ihowa ki tana iwi; a kahore noa iho he whakaoranga.
17 And he brought against them the king of the Chaldeans, and killed their young men with the sword in the house of his sanctuary, and did not spare Sedekias, and had no mercy upon their virgins, and they led away their old men: he delivered all things into their hands.
Na reira i kawea ai e ia te kingi o nga Karari ki a ratou, a patua iho e ia a ratou taitama ki te hoari i roto i te whare o to ratou wahi tapu; kihai i tohungia e ia te taitama, te kotiro, te kaumatua, te koroheke tuara piko; hoatu katoa ana e i a ki tona ringa.
18 And all the vessels of the house of God, the great and the small, and the treasures of the house of the Lord, and all the treasures of the king and the great men; he brought all to Babylon.
Na, ko nga oko o te whare o te Atua, ko nga mea nunui, ko nga mea ririki, ko nga taonga o te whare o Ihowa, me nga taonga o te kingi ratou ko ona rangatira; kawea katoatia ana e ia enei ki Papurona.
19 And he burnt the house of the Lord, and broke down the wall of Jerusalem, and burnt its palaces with fire, and [utterly destroyed] every beautiful vessel.
Tahuna ake e ratou te whare o te Atua, wahia iho te taiepa o Hiruharama, tahuna ana nga whare papai katoa ki te ahi, ngaro rawa i a ratou nga oko papai katoa o reira.
20 And he carried away the remnant to Babylon; and they were servants to him and to his sons until [the establishment of] the kingdom of the Medes.
Whakahekea atu ana hoki e ia te hunga i toe i te hoari ki Papurona, a he pononga ratou mana, ma ana tama, a taea noatia te kingitanga o Pahia:
21 That the word of the Lord by the mouth of Jeremias might be fulfilled, until the land should enjoy its sabbaths in resting [and] sabbath keeping all the days of its desolation, till the accomplishment of seventy years.
Hei whakaritenga mo te kupu a Ihowa, i korerotia e Heremaia, kia koa ra ano te whenua i ona hapati: he hapati hoki ona i nga ra katoa o te ngaromanga; kia rite ra ano nga tau e whitu tekau.
22 In the first year of Cyrus king of the Persians, after the fulfilment of the word of the Lord by the mouth of Jeremias, the Lord stirred up the spirit of Cyrus king of the Persians, and told him to make proclamation in writing throughout all his kingdom, saying,
Na, i te tuatahi o nga tau o Hairuha kingi o Pahia, ka whakamana te kupu a Ihowa, i korerotia e Heremaia, ka whakaohokia e Ihowa te wairua o Hairuha kingi o Pahia. Na ka tukua e tera tana karanga puta noa i tona kingitanga; he mea tuhituhi nana; i mea ia,
23 Thus says Cyrus king of the Persians to all the kingdoms of the earth, The Lord God of heaven has given me [power], and he has commanded me to build a house to him in Jerusalem, in Judea. Who [is there] of you of all his people? His God shall be with him, and let him go up.
Ko te kupu tenei a Hairuha kingi o Pahia, Kua oti nga kingitanga katoa o te whenua te homai ki ahau e Ihowa, e te Atua o nga rangi; kua whakahaua mai ano ahau e ia kia hanga i te whare mona ki Hiruharama, ki tera i Hura. Ko wai tenei o koutou o tana iwi katoa, hei a ia a Ihowa, tona Atua, kia haere ake hoki ia.
