< 2 Kings 6 >
1 And the children of the Prophets saide vnto Elisha, Behold, we pray thee, the place where we dwell with thee, is too litle for vs.
Na ka mea nga tama a nga poropiti ki a Eriha, Nana, ko te wahi e noho nei matou i tou aroaro he kuiti rawa mo tatou.
2 Let vs nowe goe to Iorden, that we may take thence euery man a beame, and make vs a place to dwell in. And he answered, Goe.
Tena, tukua matou kia haere ki Horano, ki te tango kurupae mai i reira, tenei, tenei o matou, ka hanga ai i tetahi wahi i reira hei nohoanga mo tatou. A ka whakahokia e ia, Haere koutou.
3 And one said, Vouchsafe, I pray thee, to go with thy seruants, and he answered, I will goe.
Na ka mea tetahi, Tena, whakaae mai kia haere koe i au pononga. Ano ra ko ia, Ka haere ano ahau.
4 So he went with them, and when they came to Iorden, they cut downe wood.
Heoi haere ana ia i a ratou. I to ratou taenga ki Horano, kei te topetope rakau.
5 And as one was felling of a tree, the yron fell into the water: then he cryed, and said, Alas master, it was but borowed.
Otiia i tetahi e tua ana i te rakau, ka marere te pane o te toki ki te wai: na ka karanga ia, ka mea, Aue, e toku ariki! he toki na te tangata.
6 And the man of God saide, Where fell it? And he shewed him the place. Then he cut downe a piece of wood, and cast in thither, and he caused the yron to swimme.
Na ka mea te tangata a te Atua, Tena koa te wahi i marere ai? A ka whakaaturia e ia ki a ia te wahi. Na tapahia ana e ia tetahi rakau, a maka ana ki reira, na kua manu taua rino.
7 Then he saide, Take it vp to thee. And he stretched out his hand, and tooke it.
Na ka mea ia, Tangohia ki a koe. Na ka totoro tona ringa, a tangohia ana e ia.
8 Then the King of Aram warred against Israel, and tooke counsell with his seruants, and said, In such and such a place shalbe my campe.
Na ka whawhai te kingi o Hiria ki a Iharaira; a ka whakatakoto whakaaro ia ki ana tangata, ka mea, Ko te wahi hei puni moku, kei mea.
9 Therefore the man of God sent vnto the King of Israel, saying, Beware thou goe not ouer to such a place: for there the Aramites are come downe.
Na ka tono tangata te tangata a te Atua ki te kingi o Iharaira ki te ki atu, Kia tupato kei tika koe na taua wahi: kei te haere hoki nga Hirianai ki raro, ki reira.
10 So the King of Israel sent to the place which the man of God tolde him, and warned him of, and saued himselfe from thence, not once, nor twise.
Na ka unga tangata te kingi o Iharaira ki te wahi i kiia ra e te tangata a te Atua ki a ia, i whakatupato ai ia i a ia; a ka honea ia i reira, ehara ano i te tuatahi, i te tuarua ranei.
11 And the heart of the King of Aram was troubled for this thing: therefore he called his seruants and saide vnto them, Will ye not shewe me, which of vs bewrayeth our counsel to the king of Israel?
Na pohewa noa iho te ngakau o te kingi o Hiria i tenei mea; a ka karangatia e ia ana tangata, ka mea ki a ratou, E kore ianei koutou e whakaatu ki ahau, ko wai o tatou kei te kingi o Iharaira?
12 Then one of his seruants saide, None, my lorde, O King, but Elisha the Prophet that is in Israel, telleth the King of Israel, euen the wordes that thou speakest in thy priuie chamber.
Ka mea tetahi o ana tangata, Kahore, e toku ariki, e te kingi; engari ko Eriha, ko te poropiti kei roto i a Iharaira, kei te whakaatu ki te kingi o Iharaira i nga kupu e korero ai koe i tou whare moenga.
13 And he said, Goe, and espie where he is, that I may sende and fetch him. And one tolde him, saying, Beholde, he is in Dothan.
Na ka mea ia, Tikina, tirohia, kei hea ia, kia unga ai e ahau he tangata ki te tiki i a ia. A ka korerotia ki a ia, Nana, kei Rotana.
14 So he sent thither horses, and charets, and a mightie hoste: and they came by night, and compassed the citie.
Na tonoa ana e ia ki reira he hoiho, he hariata, me tetahi ope nui: a haere po ana ratou, karapotia ana te pa.
15 And when the seruant of the man of God arose earely to goe out, beholde, an hoste compassed the citie with horses and charets. Then his seruant sayde vnto him, Alas master, howe shall we doe?
Na, i te marangatanga o te kaimahi a te tangata a te Atua i te ata tu, i te putanga ki waho, na, he taua e karapoti ana i te pa, me nga hoiho, me nga hariata. Na ka mea tana tangata ki a ia, Aue, e toku ariki, me aha tatou?
16 And he answered, Feare not: for they that be with vs, are moe then they that be with them.
Ano ra ko ia, Kaua e wehi; hira ake hoki o tatou hoa i o ratou hoa.
17 Then Elisha prayed, and saide, Lord, I beseech thee, open his eyes, that he may see. And the Lord opened the eyes of the seruant, and he looked, and beholde, the mountaine was full of horses and charets of fyre round about Elisha.
Na ka inoi a Eriha, a ka mea, E Ihowa, kia titiro ona kanohi, kia kite ai ia. Na whakatirohia ana nga kanohi o taua taitamariki; a ka kite ia; na, kapi tonu te maunga i te hoiho, i te hariata ahi i nga taha katoa o Eriha.
18 So they came downe to him, but Elisha prayed vnto the Lord, and said, Smite this people, I pray thee, with blindnesse. And he smote them with blindnes, according to the worde of Elisha.
Na, i to ratou haerenga ki raro ki a ia, ka inoi a Eriha ki a Ihowa, ka mea, Tena ra, patua tenei iwi kia matapo. Na patua ana ratou e ia kia matapo, pera tonu ia me ta Eriha i ki ai.
19 And Elisha said vnto them, This is not the way, neither is this the citie: follow me, and I will leade you to the man whome ye seeke. But he ledde them to Samaria.
Na ka mea a Eriha ki a ratou, Ehara tenei i te huarahi, ehara hoki tenei i te pa: whai mai i ahau, a maku koutou e arahi ki ta koutou tangata e rapu nei. A arahina ana ratou e ia ki Hamaria.
20 And when they were come to Samaria, Elisha saide, Lord, open their eyes that they may see. And the Lord opened their eyes, and they saw, and beholde, they were in the mids of Samaria.
A, no te taenga ki Hamaria, ka mea a Eriha, E Ihowa, whakatirohia nga kanohi o enei, kia kite ai ratou. Na whakatirohia ana e Ihowa o ratou kanohi, a ka kite ratou; na, i waenganui pu ratou o Hamaria.
21 And the King of Israel sayde vnto Elisha when he sawe them, My father, shall I smite them, shall I smite them?
Na ka mea te kingi o Iharaira ki a Eriha, i tona kitenga i a ratou, Kia patua e ahau, e toku papa? kia patua e ahau?
22 And he answered, Thou shalt not smite them: doest thou not smite them that thou hast taken with thy sworde, and with thy bowe? but set bread and water before them, that they may eate and drinke and goe to their master.
Ano ra ko ia, Kaua e patua e koe. E patua ranei e koe au i hopu ai ki tau hoari, ki tau kopere? Whakatakotoria he taro, he wai ki o ratou aroaro, kia kai ratou, kia inu, kia hoki ki to ratou ariki.
23 And he made great preparation for them: and when they had eaten and drunken, he sent them away: and they went to their master. So ye bands of Aram came no more into the land of Israel.
Na taka ana e ia he kai ma ratou, he nui: a, ka kai ratou, ka inu, ka tonoa atu ratou e ia, a haere ana ratou ki to ratou ariki. Na heoi ano haerenga mai o nga taua a nga Hiriani ki te whenua o Iharaira.
24 But afterward Ben-hadad King of Aram gathered all his hoste, and went vp, and besieged Samaria.
Na, muri iho i tenei, ka huihuia e Peneharara kingi o Hiria tana ope katoa, a haere ana, whakapaea ana a Hamaria.
25 So there was a great famine in Samaria: for loe, they besieged it vntill an asses head was at foure score pieces of siluer, and the fourth part of a kab of doues doung at fiue pieces of siluer.
Na nui atu te matekai o Hamaria: na, whakapaea ana a reira e ratou, nawai a ka hokona te upoko kaihe mo nga pihi hiriwa e waru tekau, te wahi wha hoki o te kapa paru kukupa mo nga pihi hiriwa e rima.
26 And as the King of Israel was going vpon the wall, there cryed a woman vnto him, saying, Helpe, my lord, O King.
Na, i te kingi o Iharaira e haere ana na runga i te taiepa, ka karanga tetahi wahine ki a ia, ka mea, Whakaorangia, e te ariki, e te kingi.
27 And he said, Seeing the Lord doeth not succour thee, howe shoulde I helpe thee with the barne, or with the wine presse?
Ano ra ko ia, Ka kore nei a Ihowa e whakaora i a koe, kei hea he mea maku hei whakaora i a koe? kei te tapunga witi ranei? kei te poka waina ranei?
28 Also the King said vnto her, What ayleth thee? And she answered, This woman sayde vnto me, Giue thy sonne, that we may eate him to day, and we will eate my sonne to morowe,
A ka mea te kingi ki a ia, He aha tau? Ano ra ko ia, I mea mai te wahine nei ki ahau, Homai tau tama hei kai ma taua aianei, a hei apopo ka kai taua i taku tama.
29 So we sod my sonne, and did eate him: and I saide to her the day after, Giue thy sonne, that we may eate him, but she hath hid her sonne.
Heoi kohuatia ana e maua taku tama, kainga ana e maua: na i te aonga ake ka mea atu ahau ki a ia, Homai tau tama kia kainga e taua: na kua huna e ia tana tama.
30 And when the King had heard the wordes of the woman, he rent his clothes, (and as he went vpon the wall, the people looked, and behold, he had sackecloth within vpon his flesh)
Na, i te rongonga o te kingi i nga kupu a taua wahine, ka haea e ia ona kakahu; i runga hoki ia i te taiepa e haere ana; a ka titiro te iwi, na, he kakahu taratara tena kei roto, kei tona kiri.
31 And he saide, God doe so to me and more also, if the head of Elisha the sonne of Shaphat shall stande on him this day.
Katahi ia ka mea, Kia meatia mai tenei ki ahau e te Atua, me tetahi atu mea, ki te u te matenga o Eriha tama a Hapata ki runga ki a ia aianei.
32 (Nowe Elisha sate in his house, and the Elders sate with him.) And the King sent a man before him: but before the messenger came to him, he saide to the Elders, See ye not howe this murtherers sonne hath sent to take away mine head? take heede when the messenger commeth, and shut the doore and handle him roughly at the doore: is not the sounde of his masters feete behinde him?
Otiia i noho a Eriha i roto i tona whare, a i noho tahi ratou ko nga kaumatua; na ka unga tangata te kingi i tona aroaro: otiia kiano te karere i tae noa ki a ia, ka mea ia ki nga kaumatua, Kia kite koutou kua unga tangata mai tenei tama a te ka ikohuru ki te tango i toku upoko? Kia mohio, ina tae mai te karere, tutakina te tatau, kia u hoki te pupuri atu i te tatau ki a ia: he teka ianei kei muri i a ia te tapuwae o nga waewae o tona ariki?
33 While he yet talked with them, beholde, the messenger came downe vnto him, and saide, Behold, this euill commeth of the Lord: should I attende on the Lord any longer?
I a ia ano e korero ana ki a ratou, na ko te karere kua tae iho ki a ia: a ka mea ia, Nana, na Ihowa tenei kino; ko te ahau taku e tatari atu ai ano i a Ihowa?
