2 Samuel 24
1 And the wrath of the Lord was againe kindled against Israel, and he moued Dauid against them, in that he saide, Goe, number Israel and Iudah.
Na ka mura ano te riri o Ihowa ki a Iharaira, a ka whakatutehu ia i a Rawiri ki te he mo ratou, ki te mea, Tikina, taua a Iharaira raua ko Hura.
2 For the King said to Ioab the captaine of the hoste, which was with him, Goe speedily now through all the tribes of Israel, from Dan euen to Beer-sheba, and nomber ye the people, that I may knowe the nomber of the people.
Na ko te kianga a te kingi ki a Ioapa ki te rangatira ope, i reira ia i a ia, Tena, haereerea nga iwi katoa o Iharaira mai o Rana a tae noa ki Peerehepa, ka tatau i te iwi, kia mohio ai ahau ki te toputanga o te iwi.
3 And Ioab saide vnto the King, The Lord thy God increase the people an hundreth folde more then they be, and that the eyes of my lorde the King may see it: but why doeth my lord the King desire this thing?
Ano ra ko Ioapa ki te kingi, Ma Ihowa, ma tou Atua e mea te iwi kia tatakirau noa atu i to ratou tokomaha i a ratou nei, a kia kite hoki nga kanohi o toku ariki, o te kingi: otiia he aha toku ariki, te kingi i ahuareka ai ki tenei mea?
4 Notwithstanding the Kings worde preuailed against Ioab and against the captaines of the hoste: therefore Ioab and the captaines of the hoste went out from the presence of the King to nomber the people of Israel.
He ahakoa ra, u tonu te kupu a te kingi ki a Ioapa ratou ko nga rangatira ope. Na haere atu ana a Ioapa ratou ko nga rangatira ope i te aroaro o te kingi ki te tatau i te iwi, i a Iharaira.
5 And they passed ouer Iorden, and pitched in Aroer at the right side of the citie that is in the middes of the valley of Gad and toward Iazer.
Na ka whiti ratou i Horano, ka noho ki Aroere, ki te taha ki matau o te pa i waenganui o te awaawa o Kara, a tae noa ki Iatere:
6 Then they came to Gilead, and to Tahtim-hodshi, so they came to Dan Iaan, and so about to Zidon,
Katahi ka tae ratou ki Kireara, ki te whenua o Tahatimihorohi, a ka tae ki Ranaiaana a awhio haere ana ki Hairona;
7 And came to the fortresse of Tyrus and to all the cities of the Hiuites and of the Canaanites, and went towarde the South of Iudah, euen to Beer-sheba.
A ka tae ki te pa kaha ki Taira, ki nga pa katoa o nga Hiwi, o nga Kanaani: a puta ana ratou ki te tonga o Hura, ki Peerehepa.
8 So when they had gone about all the lande, they returned to Ierusalem at the ende of nine moneths and twentie dayes.
Na, ka oti te whenua katoa te haereere e ratou, ka tae ratou ki Hiruharama i te paunga o nga marama e iwa, o nga ra e rua tekau.
9 And Ioab deliuered the nomber and summe of the people vnto the King: and there were in Israel eight hundreth thousande strong men that drewe swordes, and the men of Iudah were fiue hundreth thousand men.
Na ka homai e Ioapa te toputanga o te iwi i taua ki te kingi: a e waru rau mano nga marohirohi i roto i a Iharaira, he hunga mau hoari; a e rima rau mano nga tangata o Hura.
10 Then Dauids heart smote him, after that he had numbred the people: and Dauid said vnto the Lord, I haue sinned exceedingly in that I haue done: therefore nowe, Lord, I beseech thee, take away the trespasse of thy seruant: for I haue done very foolishly.
Na ka patu te ngakau o Rawiri i a ia i muri i tana tauanga i te iwi. A ka mea a Rawiri ki a Ihowa, Nui atu toku hara i taku i mea nei: na, tena, kia whakarerea noatia iho, e Ihowa, te he o tau pononga; nui atu hoki te kuware o taku i mea ai.
11 And when Dauid was vp in the morning, the worde of the Lord came vnto the Prophet Gad Dauids Seer, saying,
Na, i te marangatanga ake o Rawiri i te ata, ka puta te kupu a Ihowa ki a Kara poropiti, ki ta Rawiri matakite, i mea ia,
12 Go, and say vnto Dauid, Thus saith ye Lord, I offer thee three thinges, chuse thee which of them I shall doe vnto thee.
Haere, mea atu ki a Rawiri, ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, E toru nga mea ka whakaaria e ahau ki a koe; whiriwhiria e koe tetahi o aua mea, a ka meatia e ahau ki a koe.
13 So Gad came to Dauid, and shewed him, and said vnto him, Wilt thou that seuen yeeres famine come vpon thee in thy lande, or wilt thou flee three moneths before thine enemies, they following thee, or that there bee three dayes pestilence in thy land? nowe aduise thee, and see, what answere I shall giue to him that sent me.
Heoi ka tae a Kara ki a Rawiri, a ka korero ki a ia, ka mea, Kia tae atu ranei ki a koe etahi tau matekai e whitu ki tou whenua? kia toru ranei nga marama e rere ai koe i te aroaro o ou hoariri, me ta ratou whai ano i a koe? kia toru ranei nga r a o te mate uruta ki tou whenua? Na whakaaroa e koe kia kitea ai taku kupu e whakahoki ai ki toku kaitono mai.
14 And Dauid said vnto Gad, I am in a wonderfull strait: let vs fall nowe into the hand of the Lord, (for his mercies are great) and let mee not fall into the hand of man.
Ano ra ko Rawiri ki a Kara, he noa iho oku whakaaro: na kia taka tatou aianei ki roto ki te ringa o Ihowa, he nui hoki ana mahi tohu; a kaua ahau e taka ki te ringa o te tangata.
15 So the Lord sent a pestilece in Israel, from the morning euen to the time appointed: and there dyed of the people from Dan euen to Beer-sheba seuentie thousand men.
Heoi whakapangia ana e Ihowa he mate uruta ki a Iharaira, o te ata iho ano a taea noatia te wa i whakaritea: a mate ake o te iwi, o Rana a tae noa ki Peerehepa, e whitu tekau mano tangata.
16 And when the Angel stretched out his hande vpon Ierusalem to destroy it, the Lord repented of the euil, and said to the Angel that destroyed the people, It is sufficient, holde nowe thine hand. And the Angel of the Lord was by the threshing place of Araunah the Iebusite.
A, no te toronga atu o te ringa o te anahera ki Hiruharama whakangaro ai, ka puta ke to Ihowa whakaaro mo te kino, a ka mea ia ki te anahera e whakangaro ana i te iwi, Kua nui tenei: kati tou ringa. A, i te patunga witi a Arauna Iepuhi, te anahe ra a Ihowa.
17 And Dauid spake vnto the Lord (when he sawe the Angel that smote the people) and saide, Behold, I haue sinned, yea, I haue done wickedly: but these sheepe, what haue they done? let thine hand, I pray thee, be against mee and against my fathers house.
I korero hoki a Rawiri ki a Ihowa i tona kitenga i te anahera i patua ai te iwi, i mea, Ina, kua hara ahau, kua mahi i te mahi he: ko enei hipi ia, i aha ratou? Tena, kia pa tou ringa ki ahau, ki te whare ano o toku papa.
18 So Gad came the same day to Dauid, and said vnto him, Go vp, reare an altar vnto the Lord in the threshing floore of Araunah the Iebusite.
Na ka haere a Kara ki a Rawiri i taua ra, a ka mea ki a ia, Haere ki runga, whakaarahia he aata ki a Ihowa ki te patunga witi a Arauna Iepuhi.
19 And Dauid (according to the saying of Gad) went vp, as the Lord had commanded.
Na whakatika ana a Rawiri, pera ana me te kupu a Kara, me ta Ihowa i whakahau ai.
20 And Araunah looked, and sawe the King and his seruants comming towarde him, and Araunah went out, and bowed himselfe before the King on his face to the ground,
A ka titiro atu a Arauna, ka kite i te kingi ratou ko ana tangata e haere mai ana ki a ia: na ka puta atu a Arauna, piko ana ki te kingi, ahu ana tona mata ki te whenua.
21 And Araunah said, Wherefore is my lord the King come to his seruant? Then Dauid answered, To bye the threshing floore of thee for to builde an altar vnto the Lord, that the plague may cease from the people.
Na ka mea a Arauna, He aha toku ariki, te kingi, i haere mai ai ki tana pononga? Na ka mea a Rawiri, Ki te hoki i tau patunga witi, kia hanga ai he aata ki a Ihowa, kia mutu ai te whiunga o te iwi.
22 Then Araunah saide vnto Dauid, Let my lord the King take and offer what seemeth him good in his eyes: beholde the oxen for the burnt offring, and charets, and the instruments of the oxen for wood.
Na ka mea a Arauna ki a Rawiri, Me tango e toku ariki, e te kingi, me whakaeke te mea e pai ana ki tana titiro: nana, nga kau hei tahunga tinana, me nga patu witi, me nga mea o nga kau hei wahie!
23 (All these things did Araunah as a King giue vnto the King: and Araunah saide vnto the King, The Lord thy God be fauourable vnto thee)
Ko enei katoa, e te kingi, e hoatu ana e Arauna ki te kingi. I mea ano a Arauna ki te kingi, Kia manako a Ihowa, tou Atua ki a koe
24 Then the King saide vnto Araunah, Not so, but I will bye it of thee at a price, and will not offer burnt offring vnto ye Lord my God of that which doeth cost me nothing. So Dauid bought the threshing floore, and the oxen for fiftie shekels of siluer.
Na ka mea te kingi ki a Arauna, Kahore, engari me ata hoki e ahau tou wahi ki te utu, e kore hoki e whakaherea e ahau he tahunga tinana ki a Ihowa, ki toku Atua, kahore i utua e ahau. Heoi hokona ana e Rawiri taua patunga witi me nga kau ki te h iriwa, e rima tekau hekere.
25 And Dauid built there an altar vnto the Lord, and offred burnt offrings and peace offrings, and the Lord was appeased toward ye lande, and the plague ceased from Israel.
A hanga ana e Rawiri he aata ki reira ma Ihowa, whakaekea ana e ia etahi tahunga tinana me etahi whakahere mo te pai. Heoi ka marie a Ihowa ki te whenua, a ka mutu te mate uruta ki a Iharaira.
