2 Chronicles 32

1 After these things faithfully described, Saneherib King of Asshur came and entred into Iudah, and besieged the strong cities, and thought to winne them for him selfe.

I muri i enei mea, i te mea ka ata takoto, ka haere mai a Henakeripi kingi o Ahiria, tae tonu mai ki Hura, whakapaea ana e ia nga pa taiepa; i mea hoki ia kia riro atu i a ia.

2 When Hezekiah sawe that Saneherib was come, and that his purpose was to fight against Ierusalem,

A, no te kitenga o Hetekia kua tae mai a Henakeripi, e anga ana hoki ki te whawhai ki Hiruharama,

3 Then he tooke counsell with his princes and his nobles, to stoppe the water of the fountaines without the citie: and they did helpe him.

Ka whakatakoto whakaaro ki ana rangatira, ki ana marohirohi, kia purua nga wai o nga puna i waho o te pa; a ko ratou ona hoa mahi.

4 So many of the people assembled themselues, and stopt all the fountaines, and the riuer that ranne through the middes of the countrey, saying, Why should the Kings of Asshur come, and finde much water?

Heoi nui atu te iwi i huihui mai, a purua ana e ratou nga puna katoa, me te awa e rere ana i waenganui o te whenua; i ki hoki ratou, He aha kia haere mai nga kingi o Ahiria, kia nui te wai e kitea e ratou?

5 And he tooke courage, and built all the broken wall, and made vp the towers, and another wall without, and repayred Millo in the citie of Dauid, and made many dartes and shields.

Na ka whakapakari ia, a hanga ana e ia te taiepa katoa i pakaru, a eke noa ki nga pourewa; me tetahi atu taiepa ano i waho, i whakakahangia ano e ia a Miro i te pa o Rawiri: a he tini nga pere me nga whakangungu rakau i hanga e ia.

6 And he set captaines of warre ouer the people, and assembled them to him in the broade place of the gate of the citie, and spake comfortably vnto them, saying,

I whakaritea ano e ia he rangatira whawhai mo te iwi; a ka huihui i a ratou ki a ia ki te wahi whanui i te kuwaha o te pa. Na ka korero whakamarie ia ki a ratou, ka mea,

7 Be strong and couragious: feare not, neither be afraide for the King of Asshur, neither for all the multitude that is with him: for there be more with vs, then is with him.

Kia kaha, kia maia, kaua e wehi, kaua e pawera ki te kingi o Ahiria, ki tana ope katoa: hira ake hoki to tatou i tona.

8 With him is an arme of flesh, but with vs is the Lord our God for to helpe vs, and to fight our battels. Then the people were confirmed by the wordes of Hezekiah King of Iudah.

Ko tona he ringa kikokiko; ko to tatou ia, ko Ihowa, ko to tatou Atua hei awhina mo tatou, hei whawhai i ta tatou whawhai. Na okioki tonu te iwi ki nga kupu a Hetekia kingi o Hura.

9 After this, did Saneherib King of Asshur send his seruants to Ierusalem (while he was against Lachish, and all his dominion with him) vnto Hezekiah King of Iudah and vnto all Iudah that were at Ierusalem, saying,

I muri i tenei ka unga mai ana tangata e Henakeripi kingi o Ahiria ki Hiruharama: ko ia hoki i te whakapae i Rakihi, a ko tona kingitanga katoa i a ia; hei mea ki a Hetekia kingi o Hura, ki a Hura katoa ano i Hiruharama,

10 Thus saith Saneherib the King of Asshur, Wherein doe ye trust, that ye will remaine in Ierusalem, during the siege?

Ko te kupu tenei a Henakeripi kingi o Ahiria, E whakawhirinaki ana koutou ki te aha, i a koutou e whakapaea na i Hiruharama?

11 Doeth not Hezekiah entice you to giue ouer your selues vnto death by famine and by thirst, saying, The Lord our God shall deliuer vs out of the hande of the King of Asshur?

He teka ianei he whakapati ta Hetekia i a koutou, he mea kia tukua ai koutou ki te mate i te kore kai, i te kore wai, i a ia e ki ra, Tera tatou e whakaorangia e Ihowa, e to tatou Atua i te ringa o te kingi o Ahiria?

12 Hath not the same Hezekiah taken away his hie places and his altars, and commanded Iudah and Ierusalem, saying, Ye shall worshippe before one altar, and burne incense vpon it?

He teka ianei na taua Hetekia nei i whakakore ona wahi tiketike, me ana aata, a ki ana ia ki a Hura, ki Hiruharama, mea ana, Hei mua i te aata kotahi koutou koropiko ai, ki runga ano i tenei koutou tahu ai i te whakakakara?

13 Knowe ye not what I and my fathers haue done vnto all the people of other countreyes? were the gods of the nations of other landes able to deliuer their land out of mine hande?

Kahore ranei koutou e mohio ki nga mea i mea ai ahau me oku matua ki nga iwi katoa o nga whenua nei? i taea ranei e nga atua o nga iwi o aua whenua te whakaora to ratou whenua i toku ringa?

14 Who is he of al the gods of those natios (that my fathers haue destroied) that could deliuer his people out of mine hande? that your God should be able to deliuer you out of mine hand?

Ko wai o nga atua o enei iwi i huna nei e oku matua i kaha ki te whakaora i tana iwi i roto i toku ringa, e kaha ai to koutou Atua ki te whakaora i a koutou i roto i toku ringa?

15 Nowe therefore let not Hezekiah deceiue you, nor seduce you after this sort, neither beleeue ye him: for none of all the gods of any nation or kingdome was able to deliuer his people out of mine hande and out of the hande of my fathers: howe much lesse shall your gods deliuer you out of mine hande?

Na kei tinihangatia koutou e Hetekia, kei whakapati hoki ia i a koutou, kei pera me tana na; kaua hoki e whakapono ki a ia; no te mea kihai i kaha te atua o tetahi iwi, o tetahi kingitanga ranei ki te whakaora i tana iwi i roto i toku ringa, i t e ringa ano o oku matua; e kore rawa to koutou Atua e whakaora i a koutou i roto i toku ringa.

16 And his seruants spake yet more against the Lord God, and against his seruant Hezekiah.

Tera atu ano ta ana tangata i korero kino ai mo te Atua, mo Ihowa, mo tana tangata ano, mo Hetekia.

17 He wrote also letters, blaspheming the Lord God of Israel and speaking against him, saying, As the gods of the nations of other countreies could not deliuer their people out of mine hand, so shall not the God of Hezekiah deliuer his people out of mine hande.

I tuhituhia ano e ia etahi pukapuka hei whakakorekore mo Ihowa, mo te Atua o Iharaira, hei korero kino mona; i ki ia, Kihai nei nga atua o nga iwi o nga whenua i kaha ki te whakaora i o ratou iwi i roto i toku ringa, e kore ano hoki te Atua o He tekia e whakaora i tana iwi i roto i toku ringa.

18 Then they cryed with a loude voyce in the Iewes speach vnto the people of Ierusalem that were on the wall, to feare them and to astonish them, that they might take the citie.

Na nui atu ta ratou karanga i te reo Hurai ki te iwi o Hiruharama i runga i te taiepa hei whakawehi i a ratou, hei whakararuraru i a ratou, he mea kia riro ai i a ratou te pa.

19 Thus they spake against the God of Ierusalem, as against the gods of the people of the earth, euen the workes of mans hands,

Na, ko ta ratou korero mo te Atua o Hiruharama, rite tonu ki ta ratou mo nga atua o nga iwi o te whenua, mo nga mahi a te ringa tangata.

20 But Hezekiah the King, and the Prophet Isaiah the sonne of Amoz prayed against this and cryed to heauen.

Na kei te inoi, kei te karanga ki te rangi a Kingi Hetekia raua ko te poropiti, ko Ihaia tama a Amoho, mo tenei mea.

21 And the Lord sent an Angel which destroyed all the valiant men, and the princes and captaines of the hoste of the King of Asshur: so he returned with shame to his owne lande. And when he was come into the house of his god, they that came foorth of his owne bowels, slewe him there with the sworde.

Na ko te tukunga mai a Ihowa i te anahera, hautopea atu ana e ia nga toa marohirohi katoa ratou ko nga rangatira, ko nga tangata nunui, i te puni o te kingi o Ahiria. Heoi hoki ana ia ki tona whenua; whakama ana tona mata. Haere ana ia ki te wha re o tona atua, na patua iho ia i reira ki te hoari e te hunga i puta i ona whekau.

22 So the Lord saued Hezekiah and the inhabitants of Ierusalem from the hande of Saneherib King of Asshur, and from the hande of all other, and maintained them on euery side.

Heoi whakaorangia ake a Hetekia me nga tangata o Hiruharama e Ihowa i te ringa o Henakeripi kingi o Ahiria, i te ringa ano o era katoa, a arahina ana ratou e ia i tetahi taha, i tetahi taha.

23 And many brought offrings vnto the Lord to Ierusalem, and presents to Hezekiah King of Iudah, so that he was magnified in the sight of all nations from thencefoorth.

A he tokomaha ki te kawe i te hakari ki a Ihowa, ki Hiruharama, i nga mea utu nui ano ki a Hetekia kingi o Hura; na kake tonu ake ia i reira i te tirohanga a nga iwi katoa.

24 In those dayes Hezekiah was sicke vnto the death, and prayed vnto the Lord, who spake vnto him, and gaue him a signe.

I aua ra ka mate a Hetekia, whano marere. Na ko tana inoinga ki a Ihowa, ka korero tera ki a ia, ka homai ano i te tohu ki a ia.

25 But Hezekiah did not render according to the rewarde bestowed vpon him: for his heart was lift vp, and wrath came vpon him, and vpon Iudah and Ierusalem.

Otiia kihai i rite ki te atawhainga ki a ia ta Hetekia utu: i whakakake hoki tona ngakau; na kua takoto he riri mona, mo Hura, mo Hiruharama.

26 Notwithstanding Hezekiah humbled him selfe (after that his heart was lifted vp) he and the inhabitants of Ierusalem, and the wrath of the Lord came not vpon them in the dayes of Hezekiah.

Otiia i whakaiti a Hetekia i a ia, mo tona ngakau i whakakake ra, a ia, me nga tangata ano o Hiruharama, a kihai te riri o Ihowa i puta ki a ratou i nga ra o Hetekia.

27 Hezekiah also had exceeding much riches and honour, and he gate him treasures of siluer, and of golde, and of precious stones, and of sweete odours, and of shieldes, and of all pleasant vessels:

Na nui atu te taonga me te kororia i a Hetekia: a hanga ana e ia he toa taonga mo te hiriwa, mo te koura, mo nga kohatu utu nui, mo nga mea kakara, mo nga whakangungu rakau, mo nga mea katoa e matenuitia ana;

28 And of store houses for the increase of wheat and wine and oyle, and stalles for all beasts, and rowes for the stables.

He toa ano mo nga hua o te witi, o te waina, o te hinu, me nga tunga mo ia kararehe, mo ia kararehe, me nga taiepa mo nga kahui hipi.

29 And he made him cities, and had possession of sheepe and oxen in abundance: for God had giuen him substance exceeding much.

I hanga ano e ia etahi pa mona, a he tini ano nga kahui hipi, kau hoki: nui atu hoki te taonga i homai e te Atua ki a ia.

30 This same Hezekiah also stopped the vpper water springs of Gihon, and led them streight vnderneath towarde the citie of Dauid Westwarde. so Hezekiah prospered in all his workes.

Na taua Hetekia ano i puru to runga putanga o te wai o Kihona; whakatikaia tonutia iho e ia ki te taha ki te hauauru o te pa o Rawiri. Oti pai ana hoki i a Hetekia ana mahi katoa.

31 But because of the ambassadours of the princes of Babel, which sent vnto him to enquire of the wonder that was done in the lande, God left him to trie him, and to knowe all that was in his heart.

I nga karere ia a nga rangatira o Papurona i unga mai nei ki a ia ki te ui ki te merekara i puta ki te whenua, i mahue ia i te Atua, kia whakamatauria ai ia, kia mohiotia ai nga mea katoa i tona ngakau.

32 Concerning the rest of the actes of Hezekiah, and his goodnesse, beholde, they are written in the vision of Ishiah the Prophet, the sonne of Amoz, in the booke of the Kings of Iudah and Israel.

Na, ko era atu meatanga a Hetekia, me ana mahi atawhai, nana, kua oti te tuhituhi ki te kite a Ihaia poropiti tama a Amoho, ki te pukapuka o nga kingi o Hura, o Iharaira.

33 So Hezekiah slept with his fathers, and they buryed him in the highest sepulchre of the sonnes of Dauid: and all Iudah and the inhabitants of Ierusalem did him honour at his death: and Manasseh his sonne reigned in his stead.

Na kua moe a Hetekia ki ona matua, a tanumia iho ki to runga rawa o nga urupa o nga tama a Rawiri: a i tona matenga ka whakakororiatia ia e Hura katoa, ratou ko nga tangata o Hiruharama; a ko tana tama, ko Manahi, te kingi i muri i a ia.
