Ezra 8
1 These [are] now the chief of their fathers, and [this is] the genealogy of them that went up with me from Babylon, in the reign of Artaxerxes the king.
Na ko nga upoko enei o nga whare o o ratou matua, ko nga whakapaparanga ano enei o te hunga i haere atu hei hoa moku i Papurona, i te kingitanga o Kingi Arataherehe.

O nga tama ano a Pikiwai; ko Utai, ko Tapuru; na, ko o ratou hoa, e whitu tekau nga tane.
15 And I gathered them together to the river that runneth to Ahava; and there abode we in tents three days: and I viewed the people, and the priests, and found there none of the sons of Levi.
Na ka huihuia ratou e ahau ki te awa e rere ana ki Ahawa, a noho ana matou i reira e toru nga ra; a, i taku tirohanga i te iwi, i nga tohunga, na kihai tetahi o nga tama a Riwai i kitea e ahau ki reira.
16 Then sent I for Eliezer, for Ariel, for Shemaiah, and for Elnathan, and for Jarib, and for Elnathan, and for Nathan, and for Zechariah, and for Meshullam, chief men; also for Joiarib, and for Elnathan, men of understanding.
Katahi ahau ka tono kia tikina a Erietere, a Ariere, a Hemaia, a Erenatana, a Iaripi, a Erenatana, a Natana, a Hakaraia, a Mehurama, he upoko enei; a Toiaripi ano a Erenatana, he kaiwhakaako raua.
17 And I sent them with commandment unto Iddo the chief at the place Casiphia, and I told them what they should say unto Iddo, [and] to his brethren the Nethinims, at the place Casiphia, that they should bring unto us ministers for the house of our God.
Na ka unga ratou e ahau ki a Iro; ki te upoko o te kainga, o Kahipia; a i hoatu ano e ahau he kupu hei korero ma ratou ki a Iro ratou ko ona teina, ko nga Netinimi, i te kainga, i Kahipia, kia kawea mai ai e ratou he minita ki a matou mo te whar e o to tatou Atua.
18 And by the good hand of our God upon us they brought us a man of understanding, of the sons of Mahli, the son of Levi, the son of Israel; and Sherebiah, with his sons and his brethren, eighteen;
Na i runga i a matou te ringa pai o to matou Atua, a ka kawea mai e ratou ki a matou he tangata whai whakaaro, no nga tama a Mahari, tama a Riwai, tama a Iharaira; a Herepia ano ratou ko ana tama, ko ona tuakana, teina, kotahi tekau ma waru;
19 And Hashabiah, and with him Jeshaiah of the sons of Merari, his brethren and their sons, twenty;
A Hahapia hoki me Ihaia, no nga tama a Merari, ratou ko ona tuakana, teina, me a ratou tama, e rua tekau;
20 Also of the Nethinims, whom David and the princes had appointed for the service of the Levites, two hundred and twenty Nethinims: all of them were expressed by name.
O nga Netinimi ano i whakaritea nei e Rawiri, e nga rangatira, mo nga mahi a nga Riwaiti, e rua rau e rua tekau nga Netinimi; he mea whakahua katoa o ratou ingoa.
21 Then I proclaimed a fast there, at the river of Ahava, that we might afflict ourselves before our God, to seek of him a right way for us, and for our little ones, and for all our substance.
Katahi ka karangatia e ahau he nohopuku ki reira ki te taha o te awa o Ahawa, kia whakaiti ai matou i a matou ki te aroaro o to matou Atua, kia rapua ai e matou i a ia te ara tika mo matou, mo a matou tamariki, mo o matou taonga katoa.
22 For I was ashamed to require of the king a band of soldiers and horsemen to help us against the enemy in the way: because we had spoken unto the king, saying, The hand of our God [is] upon all them for good that seek him; but his power and his wrath [is] against all them that forsake him.
I whakama hoki ahau ki te tono ki te kingi i tetahi ropu hoia me etahi kaieke hoiho hei tuara mo matou ki te hoariri i te ara; i korero hoki matou ki te kingi, i mea, Kei runga te ringa o to matou Atua i te hunga katoa e rapu ana i a ia, hei pai mo ratou: otiia ka whawhai tona kaha, me tona riri, ki te hunga katoa e whakarere ana i a ia.
23 So we fasted and besought our God for this: and he was intreated of us.
Na, nohopuku ana matou, rapua ana e matou he tikanga i to matou Atua mo tenei mea, a tahuri mai ana ia ki a matou.
24 Then I separated twelve of the chief of the priests, Sherebiah, Hashabiah, and ten of their brethren with them,
Na ka motuhia e ahau etahi o nga tohunga kotahi tekau ma rua, a Herepia, a Hahapia, me o ratou teina kotahi tekau.
25 And weighed unto them the silver, and the gold, and the vessels, [even] the offering of the house of our God, which the king, and his counsellors, and his lords, and all Israel [there] present, had offered:
Paunatia ana e ahau te hiriwa, te koura, me nga oko ara te whakahere ki te whare o to matou Atua i homai nei e te kingi ratou ko ana kaiwhakatakoto whakaaro, ko ana rangatira, e Iharaira katoa ano i reira.
26 I even weighed unto their hand six hundred and fifty talents of silver, and silver vessels an hundred talents, [and] of gold an hundred talents;
I paunatia ano e ahau ki o ratou ringa te hiriwa e ono rau e rima tekau taranata, nga oko hiriwa kotahi rau taranata; te koura kotahi rau taranata.
27 Also twenty basons of gold, of a thousand drams; and two vessels of fine copper, precious as gold.
Me nga peihana koura e rua tekau, kotahi mano tarami te taimaha; me nga oko e rua, he parahi pai, kanapa tonu, rite tonu ki te koura te utu nui.
28 And I said unto them, Ye [are] holy unto the LORD; the vessels [are] holy also; and the silver and the gold [are] a freewill offering unto the LORD God of your fathers.
I mea ano ahau ki a ratou, He tapu koutou ki a Ihowa, he tapu hoki nga oko; he mea whakahere noa ake ano hoki te hiriwa me te koura ma Ihowa, ma te Atua o o koutou matua.
29 Watch ye, and keep [them], until ye weigh [them] before the chief of the priests and the Levites, and chief of the fathers of Israel, at Jerusalem, in the chambers of the house of the LORD.
Matapoporetia iho, tiakina, kia paunatia ra ano e koutou ki te aroaro o nga rangatira, o nga tohunga, o nga Riwaiti, o nga rangatira o nga whare o nga matua o Iharaira, ki Hiruharama, i roto i nga ruma o te whare o Ihowa.
30 So took the priests and the Levites the weight of the silver, and the gold, and the vessels, to bring [them] to Jerusalem unto the house of our God.
Heoi riro ana i nga tohunga, i nga Riwaiti, te taimaha o te hiriwa, o te koura, o nga oko, hei mau ki Hiruharama, ki te whare o to tatou Atua.
31 Then we departed from the river of Ahava on the twelfth [day] of the first month, to go unto Jerusalem: and the hand of our God was upon us, and he delivered us from the hand of the enemy, and of such as lay in wait by the way.
Na ka turia e matou i te awa o Ahawa i te tekau ma rua o te marama tuatahi, ka haere ki Hiruharama. I runga hoki i a matou te ringa o to matou Atua, a whakaorangia ana matou e ia i te ringa o te hoariri, o te kaiwhanga i te ara.
32 And we came to Jerusalem, and abode there three days.
Na kua tae matou ki Hiruharama, a noho ana i reira, e toru nga ra.
33 Now on the fourth day was the silver and the gold and the vessels weighed in the house of our God by the hand of Meremoth the son of Uriah the priest; and with him [was] Eleazar the son of Phinehas; and with them [was] Jozabad the son of Jeshua, and Noadiah the son of Binnui, Levites;
I te wha o nga ra, na ko taua hiriwa, koura, me nga oko, ka paunatia i roto i te whare o to tatou Atua e te ringa o Meremoto tama a Uria tohunga; i a ia ano a Ereatara tama a Pinehaha; i a raua hoki a Iotapara tama a Hehua; raua ko Noaria tama a Pinui, no nga Riwaiti.
34 By number [and] by weight of every one: and all the weight was written at that time.
He mea tatau, he mea pauna, tenei, tenei; i tuhituhia hoki nga taimaha katoa i taua wa ano.
35 [Also] the children of those that had been carried away, which were come out of the captivity, offered burnt offerings unto the God of Israel, twelve bullocks for all Israel, ninety and six rams, seventy and seven lambs, twelve he goats [for] a sin offering: all [this was] a burnt offering unto the LORD.
Na, ko te hunga i haere mai nei i te whakarau, nga tama a te hunga i whakaraua atu, tapaea ana e ratou he tahunga tinana ma te Atua o Iharaira, kotahi tekau ma rua puru, he mea mo Iharaira katoa, e iwa tekau ma ono hipi toa, e whitu tekau ma whi tu reme, tekau ma rua koati toa, hei whakahere hara: ko tenei katoa hei tahunga tinana ki a Ihowa.
36 And they delivered the king’s commissions unto the king’s lieutenants, and to the governors on this side the river: and they furthered the people, and the house of God.
Na ka hoatu nga ture a te kingi ki nga kawana nui a te kingi, ki nga kawana iti i tera taha o te awa; a ko ratou hei whakaneke ake i ta te iwi, i te whare ano o te Atua.
