2 Kings 17
1 In the twelft yeere of Ahaz King of Iudah began Hoshea the sonne of Elah to reigne in Samaria ouer Israel, and reigned nine yeeres.
No te tekau ma rua o nga tau o Ahata kingi o Hura i kingi ai a Hohea tama a Eraha ki Hamaria, ki a Iharaira, a e iwa nga tau i kingi ai ia.
2 And he did euill in the sight of the Lord, but not as the Kinges of Israel, that were before him.
I kino tana mahi ki te titiro a Ihowa; otiia kihai i rite ki ta nga kingi o Iharaira i mua atu i a ia.
3 And Shalmaneser king of Asshur came vp against him, and Hoshea became his seruant, and gaue him presents.
I whakaekea ia e Haramanehere kingi o Ahiria; a ka riro a Hohea hei pononga mana, ka mau hakari hoki ki a ia.
4 And the King of Asshur founde treason in Hoshea: for he had sent messengers to So King of Egypt, and brought no present vnto the King of Asshur, as he had done yeerely: therfore the king of Asshur shut him vp, and put him in prison.
Na ka mau i te kingi o Ahiria e whakatupu he ana a Hohea; i tukua hoki e ia he karere ki a Ho kingi o Ihipa, a kihai i kawe hakari ki te kingi o Ahiria, pera i tana i kawe ai i era atu tau. Na tutakina ana ia e te kingi o Ahiria, hereherea ana ki te whare herehere.
5 Then the king of Asshur came vp throughout all the lande, and went against Samaria, and besieged it three yeere.
Katahi ka whakaekea te whenua katoa e te kingi o Ahiria, haere ana ia ki Hamaria, whakapaea ana, e toru tau.
6 In the ninth yeere of Hoshea, the King of Asshur tooke Samaria, and caryed Israel away vnto Asshur, and put them in Halah, and in Habor by the riuer of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes.
I te iwa o nga tau o Hohea ka horo Hamaria i te kingi o Ahiria, a whakahekea atu ana e ia a Iharaira ki Ahiria, a whakanohoia ana ki Haraha, ki Haporo, i te taha o te awa, o Kotana, a ki nga pa o nga Meri.
7 For when the children of Israel sinned against the Lord their God, which had brought them out of the land of Egypt, from vnder ye hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and feared other gods,
I pera ai, mo te hara o nga tama a Iharaira ki a Ihowa, ki to ratou Atua, nana nei ratou i kawe mai i te whenua o Ihipa i raro i te ringa o Parao kingi o Ihipa, mo ratou i wehi i nga atua ke,
8 And walked according to the facions of the Heathen, whom the Lord had cast out before the children of Israel, and after the maners of the Kings of Israel, which they vsed,
A haere ana i runga i nga tikanga a nga iwi i peia nei e Ihowa i mua i nga tama a Iharaira, a nga kingi hoki o Iharaira i whakakingitia nei e ratou.
9 And the children of Israel had done secretly things that were not vpright before the Lord their God, and throughout all their cities had built hie places, both from the tower of the watch, to the defensed citie,
A mahi puku ana nga tama a Iharaira i nga mea kihai i tika ki ta Ihowa, ki ta to ratou Atua, hanga ana e ratou etahi wahi tiketike ma ratou ki o ratou pa katoa, ki te taumaihi a nga kaitutei, ki te pa whai taiepa.
10 And had made them images and groues vpon euery hie hill, and vnder euery greene tree,
Whakaturia ana e ratou he whakapakoko, he Aherimi ki runga ki nga pukepuke tiketike katoa, ki raro hoki i nga rakau kouru nui katoa.
11 And there burnt incense in all the hie places, as did the heathen, whom the Lord had taken away before them, and wrought wicked things to anger the Lord,
Tahuna ana e ratou he whakakakara ki reira, ki nga wahi tiketike katoa, pera ana me nga iwi i whakahekea atu nei e Ihowa i mua i a ratou; mahia ana e ratou nga mahi kikino katoa hei whakapataritari i a Ihowa:
12 And serued idoles: whereof the Lord had sayd vnto them, Ye shall do no such thing,
Mahi ana hoki ratou ki nga whakapakoko i ki ai a Ihowa ki a ratou, Kaua e meatia e koutou tenei mea.
13 Notwithstanding the Lord testified to Israel, and to Iudah by all the Prophets, and by all the Seers, saying, Turne from your euill wayes, and keepe my commandements and my statutes, according to all the Lawe, which I commanded your fathers, and which I sent to you by my seruants the Prophets.
Otiia i whakaaturia e Ihowa te he o Iharaira, o Hura, he mea korero na nga poropiti katoa, na nga matakite katoa; i mea ia, Hoki mai i o koutou ara he, puritia aku whakahau me aku tikanga, kia rite ki te ture katoa i whakahaua e ahau ki o koutou matua, ki taku i unga ai ki a koutou, he mea korero na aku pononga, na nga poropiti.
14 Neuerthelesse they would not obey, but hardened their neckes, like to the neckes of their fathers, that did not beleeue in the Lord their God.
Heoi kihai ratou i rongo, engari whakapakeke ana i o ratou kaki, kia pera me nga kaki o o ratou matua, kihai nei i whakapono ki a Ihowa, ki to ratou Atua.
15 And they refused his statutes and his couenant, that he made with their fathers, and his testimonies (wherewith he witnessed vnto them) and they followed vanitie, and became vaine, and followed the heathen that were round about them: concerning whome the Lord had charged them, that they should not do like them.
Whakorekore ana ratou ki ana tikanga, ki tana kawenata hoki i whakaritea e ia ki o ratou matua, ki ana whakaaturanga i whakaaturia e ia ki a ratou; i whai ratou i nga mea tekateka noa, a teka noa iho ratou, arumia ana e ratou nga iwi i tetahi ta ha o ratou, i tetahi taha, era i ako ra a Ihowa ki a ratou, kia kaua e rite te mahi ki ta ratou.
16 Finally they left all the commandements of the Lord their God, and made them molten images, euen two calues, and made a groue, and worshipped all the hoste of heauen, and serued Baal.
Na whakarerea ana e ratou nga whakahau katoa a Ihowa, a to ratou Atua, a hanga ana he whakapakoko whakarewa ma ratou, ko nga kuao kau e rua: i hanga ano e ratou he Ahera, a koropiko ana ki te ope katoa o te rangi, mahi ana ki a Paara.
17 And they made their sonnes and their daughters passe thorowe the fire, and vsed witchcraft and inchantments, yea, solde them selues to doe euill in the sight of the Lord, to anger him.
I meinga ano e ratou a ratou tama me a ratou tamahine kia tika na waenganui i te ahi: i tahuri ki nga tohu, ki nga karakia maori: i hoko hoki i a ratou hei mahi i te kino ki te titiro a Ihowa, hei whakapataritari i a ia.
18 Therefore the Lord was exceeding wroth with Israel, and put them out of his sight, and none was left but the tribe of Iudah onely.
Na reira nui atu te riri o Ihowa ki a Iharaira, a nekehia atu ana ratou e ia i tona aroaro: kihai tetahi i mahue, ko te iwi anake o Hura.
19 Yet Iudah kept not the commandements of the Lord their God, but walked according to the facion of Israel, which they vsed.
Me Hura hoki, kihai ratou i pupuri i nga whakahau a Ihowa, a to ratou Atua, heoi haere ana i runga i nga tikanga i whakatakotoria e Iharaira.
20 Therefore the Lord cast off all the seede of Israel, and afflicted them, and deliuered them into the handes of spoylers, vntill he had cast them out of his sight.
Na whakakorekore ana a Ihowa ki nga uri katoa o Iharaira, whakawhiua ana ratou e ia, hoatu ana ki nga ringa o nga kaipahua, a maka noatia atu ratou e ia i tona aroaro.
21 For he cut off Israel from the house of Dauid, and they made Ieroboam the sonne of Nebat King: and Ieroboam drewe Israel away from following the Lord, and made them sinne a great sinne.
I titorehia atu hoki e ia a Iharaira i te whare o Rawiri, a meinga ana e ratou a Ieropoama tama a Nepata hei kingi: na aia ana a Iharaira e Ieropoama, kia kaua e whai i a Ihowa, a nana ratou i hara ai, he nui te hara.
22 For the children of Israel walked in all the sinnes of Ieroboam, which he did, and departed not therefrom,
Na haere ana nga tama a Iharaira i nga hara katoa i hara ai a Ieropoama; kihai ratou i mawehe atu i reira.
23 Vntill the Lord put Israel away out of his sight, as he had said by all his seruants the Prophets, and caryed Israel away out of their land to Asshur vnto this day.
A nekehia atu ra ano a Iharaira e Ihowa i tona aroaro: ko tana hoki tena i ki ai, he mea korero na ana pononga katoa, na nga poropiti. Na ka whakahekea atu a Iharaira i to ratou whenua ki Ahiria a mohoa noa nei.
24 And the King of Asshur brought folke from Babel, and from Cuthah, and from Aua, and from Hamath, and from Sepharuaim, and placed them in the cities of Samaria in steade of the children of Israel: so they possessed Samaria, and dwelt in the cities thereof.
Na ka kawea mai e te kingi o Ahiria he tangata i Papurona, i Kuta, i Awa, i Hamata, i Heparawaima, a whakanohoia ana ki nga pa o Hamaria, ki nga wahi o nga tama a Iharaira. Na kua riro a Hamaria i a ratou, a nohoia ana e ratou nga pa o reira.
25 And at the beginning of their dwelling there, they feared not the Lord: therefore the Lord sent lions among them, which slewe them.
Na i te timatanga o to ratou noho i reira, kihai ratou i wehi i a Ihowa. Heoi unga ana e Ihowa he raiona ki a ratou, a whakamatea iho etahi o ratou.
26 Wherefore they spake to the King of Asshur, saying, The nations which thou hast remoued, and placed in the cities of Samaria, knowe not the maner of the God of the land: therefore he hath sent lions among them, and behold, they slay them, because they knowe not the maner of the God of the land.
Na reira ka korero etahi ki te kingi o Ahiria, ka mea, Ko nga iwi i whakahekea ra e koe, i whakanohoia ra ki nga pa o Hamaria, kahore e matau ki nga ritenga a te Atua o te whenua: na reira ka unga e ia he raiona ki a ratou, na ka whakamatea nei ratou, mo ratou kahore e matau ki nga ritenga a te Atua o te whenua.
27 Then the King of Asshur commanded, saying, Carie thither one of the Priestes whome ye brought thence, and let him goe and dwell there, and teache them the maner of the God of the countrey.
Katahi ka whakahau te kingi e Ahiria, ka mea, Mauria ki reira tetahi o nga tohunga i whakahekea mai nei e koutou i reira; a ma ratou e haere ki reira noho ai, mana hoki ratou e whakaako ki nga ritenga a te Atua o te whenua.
28 So one of the Priestes, which they had caryed from Samaria, came and dwelt in Beth-el, and taught them how they shoulde feare the Lord.
Katahi ka haere tetahi o nga tohunga i whakahekea atu i Hamaria, a noho ana ki Peteere, a nana ratou i whakaako ki te tikanga mo to ratou wehi i a Ihowa.
29 Howbeit euery nation made their gods, and put them in the houses of the hie places, which the Samaritanes had made, euery nation in their cities, wherein they dwelt.
Otiia i hanga e tenei iwi, e tenei iwi he atua ake mona, a whakanohoia ana ki nga whare o nga wahi tiketike i hanga nei e nga Hamari; e tenei iwi, e tenei iwi ki o ratou pa i noho ai ratou.
30 For the men of Babel made Succoth-Benoth: and the men of Cuth made Nergal, and the men of Hamath made Ashima,
Na ka hangaia e nga tangata o Papurona a Hukoto Penoto; na nga tangata o Kutu i hanga Nerekara; na nga tangata o Hamata i hanga Ahima;
31 And the Auims made Nibhaz, and Tartak: and the Sepharuims burnt their children in the fire to Adrammelech, and Anammelech the gods of Sepharuaim.
A na nga Awi i hanga Nipihata raua ko Tarataka. I tahuna hoki e nga Heparawaimi a ratou tamariki ki te ahi, hei mea ki a Ataramereke raua ko Anamereke, atua o Heparawaima.
32 Thus they feared the Lord, and appoynted out Priestes out of them selues for the hie places, who prepared for them sacrifices in the houses of the hie places.
Heoi wehi ana ratou i a Ihowa, a whakatohungatia ana e ratou no ratou ano hei tohunga ma ratou mo nga wahi tiketike; a ko era hei kaimahi ma ratou mo nga mea tapu i nga whare o nga wahi tiketike.
33 They feared the Lord, but serued their gods after the maner of the nations whome they caryed thence.
I wehi ratou i a Ihowa, me te mahi ano ki o ratou atua: pera ana i nga iwi i whakahekea atu nei ratou i reira.
34 Vnto this day they doe after the olde maner: they neyther feare God, neyther doe after their ordinances, nor after their customes, nor after the Lawe, nor after the commandement, which the Lord commanded the children of Iaakob, whom he named Israel,
Rite tonu ki o mua ritenga a ratou mahi a taea noatia tenei ra; kahore o ratou wehi i a Ihowa, kahore hoki a ratou mahi e rite ki a ratou tikanga, ki a ratou whakaritenga, ki te ture, ki te whakahau ranei i whakahau ai a Ihowa i nga tama a Hakop a, ko tana ingoa nei mona ko Iharaira;
35 And with whom the Lord had made a couenant, and charged them, saying, Feare none other gods, nor bowe your selues to them, nor serue them, nor sacrifice to them:
I whakarite kawenata nei a Ihowa ki a ratou, i whakahau hoki i a ratou, i mea, Kaua e wehi i nga atua ke, kaua hoki e koropiko ki a ratou, kaua e mahi ki a ratou, kaua hoki e patu whakahere ki a ratou.
36 But feare the Lord which brought you out of the land of Egypt with great power, and a stretched out arme: him feare ye, and worshippe him, and sacrifice to him.
Engari a Ihowa, nana nei koutou i kawe mai i te whenua o Ihipa i runga i te kaha nui, i te ringa maro, ko ia ta koutou e wehi ai, ko ia ta koutou e koropiko ai; me patu whakahere ano ki a ia.
37 Also keepe ye diligently the statutes and the ordinances, and the Lawe, and the commandement, which he wrote for you, that ye do them continually, and feare not other gods.
Na, ko nga tikanga me nga whakaritenga, ko te ture me te whakahau, kua oti na te tuhituhi e ia mo koutou, me pupuri e koutou, me mahi i nga ra katoa; kaua hoki e wehi i nga atua ke;
38 And forget not the couenant that I haue made with you, neither feare ye other gods,
Kaua hoki e wareware ki te kawenata i whakaritea e ahau ki a koutou; kaua hoki e wehi ki nga atua ke;
39 But feare the Lord your God, and he will deliuer you out of the handes of all your enemies.
Engari ko Ihowa, ko to koutou Atua, ta koutou e wehi ai, a mana koutou e whakaora i te ringa o o koutou hoariri katoa.
40 Howbeit they obeyed not, but did after their olde custome.
Otiia kihai ratou i rongo; na rite tonu ki nga ritenga o mua ta ratou i mea ai.
41 So these nations feared the Lord, and serued their images also: so did their children, and their childrens children: as did their fathers, so do they vnto this day.
Heoi wehi ana aua iwi i a Ihowa, me te mahi ano ki o ratou whakapakoko; i pera ano a ratou tamariki, me nga tamariki a a ratou tamariki, me o ratou matua, a taea noatia tenei ra.
