1 Chronicles 29

1 And king David spoke to the entire assembly: “My son Solomon, the one God has chosen, is still a tender boy. And yet the work is great, for a habitation is being prepared, not for man, but for God.

I mea ano a Kingi Rawiri ki te whakaminenga katoa, Ko taku tama, ko Horomona, ko te mea kotahi i whiriwhiria nei e te Atua, he tamariki ia, he mea ngawari, he nui hoki te mahi; ehara hoki i te whare mo te tangata; engari mo Ihowa, mo te Atua.

2 Now with all my ability, I have prepared the expenses for the house of my God: gold for items of gold, and silver for those of silver, brass for those of brass, iron for those of iron, and wood for those of wood, and stones of onyx, and stones like alabaster, and stones of diverse colors, and every kind of precious stone, and marble from Paros in great abundance.

Na kua whakapaua nei e ahau oku uaua ki te mahi mea mai mo te whare o toku Atua, te koura mo nga mea koura, te hiriwa mo nga mea hiriwa, te parahi mo nga mea parahi, te rino mo nga mea rino, te rakau mo nga mea rakau, nga kohatu onika, nga kohatu e whakanohoia ana, nga kohatu kanapa, me nga mea kakano whakauru, nga kohatu utu nui katoa, me nga kohatu mapere, tona tini.

3 And in addition to these things that I have offered into the house of my God, I give, from my own belongings, gold and silver for the temple of my God, aside from those things that I have prepared for the holy shrine:

Tenei ano etahi, he pai tonu hoki noku ki te whare o toku Atua: naku ake tenei, he koura, he hiriwa ka hoatu nei mo te whare o toku Atua, hei tapiri mo nga mea katoa kua oti nei i ahau te mahi mai mo te whare tapu,

4 three thousand talents of gold, from the gold of Ophir, and seven thousand talents of highly-refined silver, for the gilding of the walls of the temple;

Ata, e toru mano taranata koura, no te koura o Opira, e whitu mano taranata hiriwa, he mea parakore, hei kopaki mo nga taha o nga whare:

5 and gold for wherever there is need of gold, and silver for wherever there is need of silver, for the works to be done by the hands of the artisans. And if anyone freely offers, let him fill his hand this day, and let him offer whatever he wishes to the Lord.”

Ko te koura mo nga mea koura, ko te hiriwa mo nga mea hiriwa, mo nga mea katoa, e mahia e nga ringa o nga kaimahi. Na ko wai e hihiko ana inaianei ki te tapae i a ia ma Ihowa?

6 And so the leaders of the families, and the nobles of the tribes of Israel, as well as the tribunes and the centurions and the overseers of the king’s possessions, promised

Na hihiko tonu nga rangatira o nga whare o nga matua, me nga rangatira o nga iwi o Iharaira, nga rangatira o nga mano, o nga rau, ratou ko nga rangatira o te mahi a te kingi.

7 and gave, for the works of the house of the Lord, five thousand talents and ten thousand pieces of gold, ten thousand talents of silver, and eighteen thousand talents of brass, and also one hundred thousand talents of iron.

A homai ana e ratou mo te mahi ki te whare o te Atua he koura e rima mano taranata, tekau mano tarami, he hiriwa kotahi tekau mano taranata, he parahi kotahi tekau ma waru mano taranata, he rino kotahi rau mano taranata.

8 And whoever found precious stones among their belongings gave them to the treasuries of the house of the Lord, by the hand of Jehiel the Gershonite.

Na, ko te hunga i kitea nei ki a ratou he kohatu pai, homai ana e ratou ki roto ki nga taonga o te whare o Ihowa, ara ki te ringa o Tehiere Kerehoni.

9 And the people rejoiced, since they were promising their votive offerings willingly. For they were offering these to the Lord with all their heart. And king David also rejoiced with great gladness.

Na ka koa te iwi, i a ratou i hihiko nei ki te tapae noa; he tapatahi hoki te ngakau i hihiko ai ratou ki ta Ihowa, mahi: nui atu hoki te koa i koa ai a Kingi Rawiri.

10 And he blessed the Lord before the entire multitude, and he said: “Blessed are you, O Lord God of Israel, our Father from eternity to eternity.

Na ka whakapai a Rawiri i a Ihowa i te tirohanga a te whakaminenga katoa. I mea a Rawiri, Kia whakapaingia koe, e Ihowa, e te Atua o to matou matua, o Iharaira, he mea no tua whakarere a ake tonu atu.

11 Yours, O Lord, is magnificence and power and glory, and also victory; and to you is praise. For all the things that are in heaven and on earth are yours. Yours is the kingdom, O Lord, and you are above all rulers.

Nou hoki, e Ihowa, te nui, te mana, te kororia, te wikitoria, te honore; nou nga mea katoa i te rangi, i te whenua; nou te rangatiratanga, e Ihowa; he tiketike noa ake hoki koe, hei upoko mo te katoa.

12 Yours is wealth, and yours is glory. You have dominion over all things. In your hand is virtue and power. In your hand is greatness and authority over all things.

Nau nga taonga, me te honore, ko koe hoki hei kingi mo te katoa; kei tou ringa te kaha me te mana; ma tou ringa ano e homai te nui, te kaha, mo te katoa.

13 Now therefore, we confess to you, our God, and we praise your famous name.

Na, tenei matou, e to matou Atua, te whakawhetai nei ki a koe, te whakamoemiti nei ki tou ingoa kororia.

14 Who am I, and what is my people, that we should be able to promise all these things to you? All is yours. And so the things that we received from your hand, we have given to you.

Ko wai oti ahau, a he aha toku iwi, i whai kaha ai matou, i penei ai te hihiko? nau hoki te katoa, nou ano hoki ta matou ka hoatu nei ki a koe.

15 For we are sojourners and new arrivals before you, as all our fathers were. Our days upon the earth are like a shadow, and there is no delay.

He manene hoki matou i tou aroaro, he noho noa iho, he pera me o matou matua; rite tonu ki te atarangi o matou ra i runga i te whenua; kahore hoki he tuturutanga.

16 O Lord our God, all this abundance, which we have prepared so that a house may be built to your holy name, is from your hand, and all things are yours.

E Ihowa, e to matou Atua, ko tenei puranga katoa kua pae nei i a matou hei hanga i tetahi whare mou, mo tou ingoa tapu, na tou ringa enei, nau hoki te katoa.

17 I know, my God, that you test hearts, and that you love simplicity. Therefore, in the simplicity of my heart, I also have offered all these things joyfully. And I have seen, with immense gladness, your people, who have been found here, offering their donations to you.

E mohio ana hoki ahau, e toku Atua, e whakamatauria ana te ngakau e koe, e manako ana hoki koe ki te tika. Ko ahau nei, he tika toku ngakau i meatia noatia mai ai e ahau enei mea katoa; a tenei ahau te koa nei i toku kitenga i tau iwi i konei e hihiko ana ki tau mahi.

18 O Lord, the God of our fathers Abraham and Isaac and Israel, preserve unto eternity this desire of their heart, and let this purpose remain forever, for the worship of you.

E Ihowa, e te Atua o Aperahama, o Ihaka, o Iharaira, o o matou matua, kia mau tenei ake nei, ake nei, i roto i nga tokonga ake o nga whakaaro o te ngakau o tau iwi, whakaangahia hoki o ratou ngakau ki a koe.

19 Also, I give to my son Solomon a perfect heart, so that he may keep your commandments, your testimonies, and your ceremonies, and so that he may accomplish all things, and may build the temple, for which I have prepared the expenses.”

Ki taku tama hoki, ki a Horomona, homai he ngakau tapatahi, kia puritia ai e ia au whakahau, au whakaaturanga, au tikanga, kia oti katoa i a ia; kia hanga hoki te whare, mo reira nei nga mea kua pae nei i ahau.

20 Then David instructed the entire assembly: “Bless the Lord our God.” And the entire assembly blessed the Lord, the God of their fathers. And they bowed themselves, and they adored God, and next they reverenced the king.

Na ka mea a Rawiri ki te whakaminenga katoa, Tena, whakapaingia a Ihowa, to koutou Atua. Na kei te whakapai te whakaminenga katoa ki a Ihowa, ki te Atua o o ratou matua, tuohu ana ratou, piko ana ki a Ihowa, ki te kingi hoki.

21 And they immolated victims to the Lord. And they offered holocausts on the following day: one thousand bulls, one thousand rams, one thousand lambs, with their libations and with every ritual, very abundantly, for all of Israel.

I patu whakahere ano ratou ki a Ihowa, i whakaeke i nga tahunga tinana ki a Ihowa i te aonga ake o taua ra; kotahi mano puru, kotahi mano hipi toa, kotahi mano reme, me nga ringihanga, me nga patunga tapu, tona tini, hei mea mo Iharaira katoa.

22 And they ate and drank before the Lord on that day, with great rejoicing. And they anointed Solomon, the son of David, a second time. And they anointed him to the Lord as the ruler, and Zadok as the high priest.

Na kai ana ratou, inu ana i te aroaro o Ihowa i taua ra, he nui te koa. A ka tuaruatia ta ratou whakakingi i a Horomona tama a Rawiri; whakawahia ana ia ki a Ihowa, hei rangatira; ko Haroko hoki hei tohunga.

23 And Solomon sat upon the throne of the Lord as king, in place of his father David, and it pleased everyone. And all of Israel obeyed him.

Katahi ka noho a Horomona ki te torona o Ihowa, hei kingi i muri i tona papa, i a Rawiri, a kake ana; rongo tonu ano ki a ia a Iharaira katoa.

24 Moreover, all the leaders, and the powerful, and all the sons of king David pledged with their hand, and they became subject to king Solomon.

Na, ko nga rangatira katoa, me nga marohirohi, me nga tama katoa a Kingi Rawiri, ngawari noa iho ratou ki te kingi, ki a Horomona.

25 Then the Lord magnified Solomon over all of Israel. And he gave to him a glorious reign, of a kind such as no one has had before him, as king of Israel.

A whakanuia rawatia ake a Horomona e Ihowa i te tirohanga a Iharaira katoa, homai ana ki a ia he kororia hingi, kahore nei he rite i nga kingi katoa o Iharaira i mua i a ia

26 Now David, the son of Jesse, reigned over all of Israel.

Heoi ko Rawiri tama a Hehe te kingi o Iharaira katoa.

27 And the days during which he reigned over Israel were forty years. He reigned seven years in Hebron, and thirty-three years in Jerusalem.

Na, ko nga ra i kingi ai ia ki te Iharaira, e wha tekau tau; e whitu nga tau i kingi ai ia ki Heperona, e toru tekau ma toru nga tau i kingi ai ki Hiruharama.

28 And he died at a good old age, full of days and wealth and glory. And his son Solomon reigned in his place.

Na ka mate ia, he pai tona koroheketanga, hira tonu ona ra, ona taonga, tona kororia; a ko tana tama, ko Horomona te kingi i muri i a ia.

29 Now the acts of king David, from the first to the last, have been written in the book of Samuel the seer, and in the book of Nathan the prophet, and in the book of Gad the seer,

Na, ko nga mahi a Kingi Rawiri, o mua, o muri, nana, kua oti te tuhituhi ki nga kupu a Hamuera matakite, ki nga kupu ano a Natana poropiti, ki nga kupu ano hoki a Kara matakite,

30 concerning his entire reign and strength, and the times that passed under him, both in Israel and in all the kingdoms of the lands.

Me tona kingitanga katoa, me tona maia, me nga wa i a ia, i a Iharaira, i nga rangatiratanga katoa o nga whenua.
