Chronicles II 2
1 And Solomon said that he would build a house to the name of the Lord, and a house for his kingdom.
Na ka mea a Horomona kia hanga he whare mo te ingoa o Ihowa, he whare hoki mo tona kingitanga.
2 And Solomon gathered seventy thousand men that bore burdens, and eighty thousand hewers of stone in the mountain, and [there were] three thousand six hundred superintendents over them.
Na ka taua e Horomona e whitu tekau mano tangata hei kaipikau, e waru tekau mano hoki hei tua i runga i te maunga, me nga kaitirotiro i a ratou e toru mano e ono rau.
3 And Solomon sent to Chiram king of Tyre, saying, Whereas you did deal [favourably] with David my father, and did send him cedars to build for himself a house to dwell in,
Na ka tuku tangata a Horomona ki a Hurama kingi o Taira hei ki atu, Kia rite ki tau i mea ai ki toku papa, ki a Rawiri; i tukua mai hoki e koe he hita kia kawea mai mana, hei hanga i tetahi whare mona hei nohoanga, kia pera hoki tau ki ahau.
4 behold, I also his son am building a house to the name of the Lord my God, to consecrate it to him, to burn incense before him, and [to offer] show bread continually, and to offer up whole burnt offerings continually morning and evening, and on the sabbaths, and at the new moons, and at the feasts of the Lord our God: this [is] a perpetual [statute] for Israel.
Nana, ka hanga e ahau he whare mo te ingoa o Ihowa, o toku Atua, ka whakatapua mona, hei tahunga mo te whakakakara reka ki tona aroaro, mo te taro aroaro tuturu, mo nga tahunga tinana o te ata, o te ahiahi, o nga hapati, o nga kowhititanga marama, o nga hakari o Ihowa, o to matou Atua. He tikanga tenei ake ake ma Iharaira.
5 And the house which I am building [is to be] great: for the Lord our God [is] great beyond all gods.
Na he nui te whare ka hanga nei e ahau; he nui hoki to matou Atua i nga atua katoa.
6 And who will be able to build him a house? for the heaven and heaven of heavens do not bear his glory: and who am I, that I should build him a house, save only to burn incense before him?
Otira ko wai e ahei te hanga whare mona? kahore nei hoki e nui te rangi me te rangi o nga rangi hei nohoanga mona. Ko wai koai ahau hei hanga whare mona, heoi nei hei tahu whakakakara ki tona aroaro?
7 And now send me a man wise and skilled to work in gold, and in silver, and in brass, and in iron, and in purple, and in scarlet, and in blue, and one that knows how to grave together with the craftsmen who are with me in Juda and in Jerusalem, which materials my father David prepared.
Tena, unga mai ki ahau tetahi tangata e mohio ana ki te mahi i te koura, i te hiriwa, i te parahi, i te rino, i te mea papura, whero, puru, e mohio ana ki te mahi i nga ahau whakairo katoa, hei hoa mo te hunga mohio i ahau nei, i a Hura, i Hiruha rama, mo te hunga i whakatuturia e toku papa, e Rawiri.
8 And send me from Libanus cedar wood, and wood of juniper, and pine; for I know that your servants are skilled in cutting timber in Libanus: and, behold, your servants shall go with my servants,
Tukua mai ano hoki ki ahau he rakau hita, he kauri, he aramuka i Repanona: e matau ana hoki ahau he hunga mohio au tangata ki te tapahi rakau i Repanona. Na ko aku tangata hei hoa mo au tangata,
9 to prepare timber for me in abundance: for the house which I am building [must be] great and glorious.
Hei whakapai rakau maku, kia maha; no te mea he nui te whare ka hanga nei e ahau, he mea ka miharotia.
10 And, behold, I have given freely to your servants that work and cut the wood, corn for food, [even] twenty thousand measures of wheat, and twenty thousand measures of barley, and twenty thousand measures of wine, and twenty thousand measures of oil.
Nana, ko taku e hoatu ai ki au tangata, ki nga kaitarai, ki nga kaitapahi i nga rakau, he witi, he mea patu, e rua tekau mano mehua, he parei e rua tekau mano mehua, he waina e rua tekau mano pati, he hinu e rua tekau mano pati.
11 And Chiram king of Tyre answered in writing, and sent to Solomon, saying, Because the Lord loved his people, he made you king over them.
Na ka whakautua e Hurama kingi o Taira, he mea tuhituhi, tukua ai e ia ki a Horomona, He aroha no Ihowa ki tana iwi i homai ai koe e ia hei kingi mo ratou.
12 And Chiram said, Blessed [be] the Lord God of Israel, who made heaven and earth, who has given to king David a wise son, and one endowed with knowledge and understanding, who shall build a house for the Lord, and a house for his kingdom.
I mea ano a Hurama, Kia whakapaingia a Ihowa, te Atua o Iharaira, nana nei i hanga te rangi me te whenua, nana hoki i homai ki a Kingi Rawiri he tama ngarahu tika, e hua ana ona whakaaro, tona mohio, hei hanga i te whare mo Ihowa, i te whare ano mo tona kingitanga.
13 And now I have sent you a wise and understanding man [who belonged] to Chiram my father
Na kua unga atu nei e ahau tetahi tangata whakaaro, e hua ana tona mohio, na toku papa, na Hurama,
14 (his mother [was] of the daughters of Dan, and his father [was] a Tyrian), skilled to work in gold, and in silver, and in brass, and in iron, and in stones and wood; and to weave with purple, and blue, and fine linen, and scarlet; and to engrave, and to understand every device, whatever you shall give him [to do] with your craftsmen, and the craftsmen of my lord David your father.
He tama na tetahi wahine o nga tamahine a Rana, ko tona papa he tangata no Taira, he mohio ki te mahi koura, hiriwa, parahi, rino, kohatu, rakau, papaura, puru, rinena pai, whero; ki te whakairo hoki i nga whakairo katoa, ki te whakatauria i nga whakaaro katoa e hoatu ki a ia; hei hoa mo au mea mohio, mo nga mea mohio ano hoki a toku ariki, a Rawiri, a tou papa.
15 And now, the wheat, and the barley, and the oil, and the wine which my lord mentioned, let him send to his servants.
Na, ko te witi, ko te parei, ko te hinu, ko te waina, i korerotia mai na e toku ariki, mana e homai ki ana pononga;
16 And we will cut timber out of Libanus according to all your need, and we will bring it on rafts to the sea of Joppa, and you shall bring it to Jerusalem.
A ma matou e tapahi he rakau i Repanona, kia rite ki au e mea ai mau: ka whakatere atu ai ki a koe i te moana ki Hopa, a mau e taritari ki Hiruharama.
17 And Solomon gathered all the foreigners that were in the land of Israel, after the numbering with which David his father numbered them; and there were found a hundred and fifty-three thousand six hundred.
Na ka taua e Horomona nga tangata iwi ke i te whenua o Iharaira i muri i te tauanga i taua ai e tona papa e Rawiri; a ka kitea kotahi rau e rima tekau ma toru mano e ono rau.
18 And he made of them seventy thousand burden-bearers, and eighty thousand hewers of stone, and three thousand six hundred taskmasters over the people.
A ka meinga etahi o ratou, e whitu tekau mano, hei kaipikau, e waru tekau mano ano hei tarai i runga i te maunga, e toru mano e ono rau hei kaitirotiro, hei whakamahi i te iwi.
