2 Chronicles 33
1 Manasseh was twelve years old when he had begun to reign, and he reigned for fifty-five years in Jerusalem.
Tekau ma rua nga tau o Manahi i tona kingitanga, a e rima tekau ma rima ona tau i kingi ai ia ki Hiruharama.
2 But he did evil before the Lord, in accord with all the abominations of the nations which the Lord overturned before the sons of Israel.
A he kino tana mahi ki te titiro a Ihowa, i rite ki nga mea whakarihariha a nga iwi i peia nei e Ihowa i te aroaro o nga tama a Iharaira.
3 And turning away, he repaired the high places, which had been demolished by his father, Hezekiah. And he constructed altars to the Baals, and made sacred groves. And he adored the entire army of heaven, and he served them.
I hanga ano hoki e ia nga wahi tiketike i wahia e tona papa, e Hetekia: i whakaara i nga aata ki nga Paara, i hanga Aherimi; koropiko ana ia ki te ope o te rangi, mahi ana ki a ratou.
4 Also, he built altars in the house of the Lord, about which the Lord had said, “My name shall be in Jerusalem forever.”
I hanga ano e ia etahi aata ki te whare o Ihowa, ki ta Ihowa i ki ra, Ko Hiruharama hei waihotanga mo toku ingoa ake ake.
5 But he built these for the entire army of heaven, in the two courts of the house of the Lord.
I hanga ano e ia etahi aata ma te ope katoa o te rangi ki nga marae e rua o te whare o Ihowa.
6 And he caused his sons to pass through fire in the Valley of the son of Hinnom. He observed dreams, followed divinations, served the occult arts, had with him magicians and enchanters, and worked many evils before the Lord, so that he provoked him.
Meatia ana e ia ana tamariki kia tika na waenganui i te ahi i te aroaro o te tama a Hinomi, rapua ana e ia he tohu i nga kapua, i nga nakahi; kei te makutu ano ia, kei te whai ki nga atua maori, ki nga mata maori: nui atu tana kino i mahi ai ki t e titiro a Ihowa, hei whakapataritari mona.
7 Also, he set up a graven image and molten statue in the house of God, about which God said to David, and to his son Solomon: “In this house, and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen from all the tribes of Israel, I will place my name forever.
I whakaturia ano e ia te whakapakoko, te ahua i hanga e ia, ki te whare o te Atua, ki ta te Atua i ki ra ki a Rawiri raua ko tana tama, ko Horomona, Hei tenei whare, hei Hiruharama i whiriwhiria nei e ahau i roto i nga iwi katoa o Iharaira, ahau waiho ai i toku ingoa a ake ake:
8 And I will not cause the foot of Israel to be moved from the land which I delivered to their fathers. Yet this is so, only if they will take care to do what I have instructed them, by the hand of Moses, with the entire law and the ceremonies and the judgments.”
A heoi aku whakanekehanga i te waewae o Iharaira i te whenua i whakaritea e ahau mo o koutou matua; kia mau raia ratou ki te mahi i nga mea katoa i whakahaua e ahau ki a ratou, kia rite ki te ture katoa, ki nga tikanga, ki nga whakaritenga i whak apuakina nei e Mohi.
9 And so Manasseh seduced Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so that they did evil, more so than all the nations which the Lord had overturned before the face of the sons of Israel.
Heoi whakakotititia ana e Manahi a Hura me nga tangata o Hiruharama kia nui atu ta ratou mahi kino i ta nga iwi i huna nei e Ihowa i te aroaro o nga tama a Iharaira.
10 And the Lord spoke to him and to his people, but they were not willing to pay attention.
I korero hoki a Ihowa ki a Manahi ratou ko tona iwi; heoi kihai ratou i rongo.
11 Therefore, he led over them the leaders of the army of the king of the Assyrians. And they captured Manasseh, and they led him, bound with chains and fetters, to Babylon.
Na reira i kawea mai ai e Ihowa ki runga ki a ratou nga rangatira o te ope o te kingi o Ahiria; a ka mau i a ratou a Manahi i te taura maitai; herea iho ki te mekameka, kawea ana ki Papurona.
12 And after this, being in great anguish, he prayed to the Lord his God. And he did penance greatly before the God of his fathers.
Na i a ia i te he, ka inoi ia ki a Ihowa, ki tona Atua, ka whakaiti rawa i a ia i te aroaro o te Atua o ona matua,
13 And he petitioned and begged him intently. And he heeded his prayer, and led him back to Jerusalem, into his kingdom. And Manasseh realized that the Lord himself was God.
Inoi ana ki a ia; a ka tahuri tera ki a ia, ka rongo ki tana inoi. Na ka whakahokia ia ki Hiruharama, ki tona kingitanga. Katahi ka mohio a Manahi ko Ihowa te Atua.
14 After these things, he built a wall outside the City of David, to the west of Gihon, at the steep valley, from the entrance to the fish gate, circling around as far as Ophel. And he raised it up greatly. And he appointed leaders of the army in all the fortified cities of Judah.
I muri i tenei ka hanga e ia he taiepa i waho o te pa o Rawiri, i te taha ki te hauauru o Kihona, ki te awaawa, a tae noa ki te tomokanga i te kuwaha ika; a taiepatia ana a Opere a whawhe noa, hanga ana e ia kia tiketike rawa. I whakanohoia ano e ia etahi rangatira maia ki nga pa taiepa katoa o Hura.
15 And he took away the foreign gods, and the idol from the house of the Lord, and also the altars which he had made on the mount of the house of the Lord and in Jerusalem. And he cast all these things outside the city.
I whakakahoretia ano e ia nga atua ke, me te whakapakoko i roto i te whare o Ihowa, me nga aata katoa i hanga e ia ki te maunga o te whare o Ihowa ki Hiruharama; akiritia atu ana e ia ki waho o te pa.
16 Then he repaired the altar of the Lord, and he immolated upon it victims, and peace offerings, with praise. And he instructed Judah to serve the Lord, the God of Israel.
I hanga ano e ia te aata a Ihowa; patua iho e ia ki runga he patunga mo te pai, a mo te whakawhetai, i ki atu ano ki a Hura kia mahi ki a Ihowa, ki te Atua o Iharaira.
17 Yet still the people were immolating on the high places, to the Lord their God.
I patu whakahere ano ia te iwi i runga i nga wahi tiketike; otiia ki a Ihowa, ki to ratou Atua anake.
18 But the rest of the deeds of Manasseh, and his prayer to his God, and also the words of the seers who were speaking to him in the name of the Lord, the God of Israel, are contained in the words of the kings of Israel.
Na, ko era atu meatanga a Manahi, me tana inoi ki tona Atua, me nga korero a nga matakite i korero nei ki a ia i runga i te ingoa o Ihowa, o te Atua o Iharaira, nana, kei nga pukapuka o nga mahi a nga kingi o Iharaira.
19 Also, his prayer and its heeding, and all his sins and contempt, and the sites on which he built high places and made sacred groves and statues, before he repented, have been written in the words of Hozai.
Na, ko tana inoi, me to te Atua tahuritanga ki a ia, me tona hara katoa, me tona he, me nga wahi i hanga ai e ia nga wahi tiketike, i whakaturia ai e ia nga Aherimi, me nga whakapakoko i te mea kiano ia i whakaiti i a ia, nana, kei te tuhituhi i roto i nga korero a Hohai.
20 Then Manasseh slept with his fathers, and they buried him in his own house. And his son, Amon, reigned in his place.
Heoi kua moe a Manahi ki ona matua, a tanumia iho ki tona whare, a ko tana tama, ko Amono, te kingi i muri i a ia.
21 Amon was twenty-two years old when he had begun to reign, and he reigned for two years in Jerusalem.
E rua tekau ma rua nga tau o Amono i tona kingitanga, a e rua nga tau i kingi ai ia ki Hiruharama.
22 And he did evil in the sight of the Lord, just as his father Manasseh had done. And he immolated to all the idols that Manasseh had fabricated, and he served them.
A he kino tana mahi ki ta Ihowa titiro, i rite ki ta tona papa, ki ta Manahi i mea ai: i patu whakahere hoki a Amono ki nga whakapakoko katoa i hanga e tona papa, e Manahi, a mahi ana ki a ratou.
23 But he did not turn his face to the Lord, as his father Manasseh had turned himself. And he sinned much more grievously.
Kihai hoki i whakaiti i a ia ki te aroaro o Ihowa, kihai i pera me tona papa, me Manahi i whakaiti nei; heoi nui noa atu te he o taua Amono nei.
24 And when his servants had conspired against him, they killed him in his own house.
Na, kua whakatupuria he he mona e ana tangata; patua iho ia ki roto ki tona ake whare.
25 But the rest of the multitude of the people, having slain those who had struck down Amon, appointed his son, Josiah, as king in his place.
Otiia i patua e te iwi o te whenua nga tangata katoa i whakatupuria ai te he mo Kingi Amono; a ka meinga e te iwi o te whenua tana tama, a Hohia, hei kingi i muri i a ia.
