2 Chronicles 1
1 Then Salomon the sonne of Dauid was confirmed in his kingdome: and the Lord his God was with him, and magnified him highly.
Na kua u a Horomona tama a Rawiri ki tona rangatiratanga; i a ia ano a Ihowa, tona Atua, a whakanuia rawatia ana ia e ia.
2 And Salomon spake vnto all Israel, to the captaines of thousandes, and of hundreths, and to the iudges, and to all the gouernours in all Israel, euen the chiefe fathers.
Katahi a Horomona ka korero ki a Iharaira katoa, ki nga rangatira o nga mano, o nga rau, ki nga kaiwhakawa, ki nga kawana katoa o Iharaira katoa, ki nga upoko hoki o nga whare o nga matua.
3 So Salomon and all the Congregation with him went to the hie place that was at Gibeon: for there was the Tabernacle of the Congregation of God which Moses the seruant of the Lord had made in the wildernesse.
Heoi haere ana a Horomona ratou ko te whakaminenga katoa ki te wahi tiketike i Kipeono; i reira hoki te tapenakara o te whakaminenga a te Atua, i hanga nei e Mohi pononga a te Atua ki te koraha.
4 But the Arke of God had Dauid brought vp from Kiriath-iearim, when Dauid had made preparation for it: for he had pitched a tent for it in Ierusalem.
Ko te aaka ia a te Atua, i mauria mai tera e Rawiri i Kiriata Tearimi, ki te wahi i whakapaia e Rawiri: kua whakaturia hoki e ia he teneti mo taua aaka ki Hiruharama.
5 Moreouer the brasen altar that Bezaleel the sonne of Vri, the sonne of Hur had made, did hee set before the Tabernacle of the Lord: and Salomon and the Congregation sought it.
Ko te aata parahi ano hoki i hanga e Petareere tama a Uri, tama a Huru, i reira tera i mua i te tapenakara o Ihowa: a rapua ana he tikanga i reira e Horomona ratou ko te whakaminenga.
6 And Salomon offred there before the Lord vpon the brasen altar that was in the Tabernacle of the Congregation: euen a thousand burnt offrings offred he vpon it.
Na haere ana a Horomona ki reira ki te aata parahi i te aroaro o Ihowa, ki tera i te tapenakara o te whakaminenga, a whakaekea ana e ia ki reira kotahi mano nga tahunga tinana.
7 The same night did God appeare vnto Salomon, and sayde vnto him, Aske what I shall giue thee.
I taua po ka puta te Atua ki a Horomona, a ka mea ki a ia, Inoi mai ki ahau ko te aha kia hoatu e ahau ki a koe.
8 And Salomon sayde vnto God, Thou hast shewed great mercy vnto Dauid my father and hast made me to reigne in his stead.
Na ka mea a Horomona ki te Atua, Nui atu te aroha i whakaputaina e koe ki toku papa, ki a Rawiri; a meinga ana ahau e koe hei kingi i muri i a ia.
9 Nowe therefore, O Lord God, let thy promise vnto Dauid my father be true: for thou hast made mee King ouer a great people, like to the dust of the earth.
Heoi, e Ihowa, e te Atua, whakamana tau kupu ki toku papa, ki a a Rawiri; kua meinga nei hoki ahau e koe hei kingi mo te iwi e rite ano ki te onepu o te whenua te tini.
10 Giue me now wisdome and knowledge, that I may go out and go in before this people: for who can iudge this thy great people?
Na homai ki ahau he ngakau mahara, he mohio, mo toku haere atu, haere mai, i te aroaro o tenei iwi: ko wai hoki hei whakarite mo tenei iwi nui au?
11 And God sayde to Salomon, Because this was in thine heart, and thou hast not asked riches, treasures nor honour, nor the liues of thine enemies, neither yet hast asked long life, but hast asked for thee wisdome and knowledge that thou mightest iudge my people, ouer whome I haue made thee King,
Ano ra ko te Atua ki a Horomona, Na, i te mea ko ta tou ngakau tenei, kihai hoki koe i tono ki te taonga mou, ki te rawa, ki te kororia, ki ou hoariri ranei kia mate, kihai hoki koe i tono kia maha ou ra; heoi tau i tono ai, he ngakau mahara, he mohio, kia whakarite ai koe mo taku iwi, kua oti na koe te mea e ahau hei kingi mo ratou:
12 Wisdome and knowledge is granted vnto thee, and I will giue thee riches and treasures and honour, so that there hath not bene the like among the Kings which were before thee, neither after thee shall there be the like.
Tenei ka hoatu nei ki a koe he ngakau mahara, he mohio; a ka hoatu e ahau ki a koe he taonga, he rawa, he kororia, kahore i rite o nga kingi i mua i a koe, e kore ano e rite i muri i a koe.
13 Then Salomon came from the hie place, that was at Gibeon, to Ierusalem from before the Tabernacle of the Congregation, and reigned ouer Israel.
Heoi ka tae a Horomona i tana haere ki te wahi tiketike i Kipeono, i mua te te tapenakara o te whakaminenga, ki Hiruharama, a kingi ana ki a Iharaira.
14 And Salomon gathered the charets and horesemen: and he had a thousand and foure hundreth charets, and twelue thousande horsemen, whome he placed in the charet cities, and with the King at Ierusalem.
Na ka huihuia he hariata e Horomona, he kaieke hoiho; kotahi mano e wha rau ana hariata, kotahi tekau ma rua mano ana kaieke hoiho, waiho iho e ia ki nga pa hariata, ki te kingi ano ki Hiruharama.
15 And the King gaue siluer and gold at Ierusalem as stones, and gaue cedar trees as the wilde figge trees, that are abundantly in the playne.
Na ka meinga e te kingi te hiriwa me te koura o Hiruharama kia rite ki te kohatu, i meinga ano e ia nga hita kia rite ki te hikamora i te raorao; te tini.
16 Also Salomon had horses brought out of Egypt and fine linen: the Kings marchants receiued the fine linen for a price.
Ko nga hoiho i a Horomona he mea mau ake i Ihipa; i riro ropu mai i nga kaihoko a te kingi, he ropu me tona utu.
17 They came vp also and brought out of Egypt some charet, worth sixe hundreth shekels of siluer, that is an horse for an hundreth and fiftie: and thus they brought horses to all the Kings of the Hittites, and to the Kings of Aram by their meanes.
Na e ono rau nga hekere hiriwa i riro mai ai te hariata, i puta mai ai i Ihipa, kotahi rau e rima tekau i riro ai te hoiho. Ko ratou ano hei kawe hoiho mo nga kingi katoa o nga Hiti mo nga kingi ano o Hiria.
