2 Chronicles 28
1 Twenty years old was Achaz when he became king, and sixteen years did he reign in Jerusalem; and he did not what is right in the eyes of the Lord, like David his father;
E rua tekau nga tau o Ahata i tona kingitanga, a tekau ma ono nga tau i kingi ai ia ki Hiruharama: kihai hoki ia i mahi i te tika ki ta Ihowa titiro, kihai i pera me tona papa, me Rawiri.
2 But he walked in the ways of the kings of Israel, and made also molten images for the Be'alim.
I haere hoki ia i nga ara o nga kingi o Iharaira, i hanga ano i etahi whakapakoko whakarewa mo nga Paara.
3 And he also burnt incense in the valley of the son of Hinnom, and burnt his sons in the fire, after the abominable acts of the nations that the Lord had driven out from before the children of Israel.
I tahu whakakakara ano ia ki te raorao o te tama a Hinomo, tahuna ana ano e ia ana tamariki ki te ahi; rite tonu tana ki nga mea whakarihariha a nga iwi i peia nei e Ihowa i te aroaro o nga tama a Iharaira.
4 And he sacrificed and burnt incense on the high-places, and on the hills, and under every green tree.
I patu whakahere ano ia, i tahu whakakakara ki nga wahi tiketike, ki nga pukepuke, ki raro i nga rakau kouru nui katoa.
5 Wherefore the Lord his God gave him up into the hand of the king of Syria; and they defeated his people, and carried away a great multitude of them captives, and brought them to Damascus. And also into the hand of the king of Israel was he given up, and he defeated his people with a great slaughter.
Na reira i tukua ai ia e Ihowa, e tona Atua ki te ringa o te kingi o Hiria; a patua ana ia e ratou, he tini ano hoki nga parau o ratou i whakaraua atu, kawea ana ki Ramahiku. I tukua atu ano ia ki te ringa o te kingi o Iharaira, patua iho e ia, h e nui te parekura.
6 And Pekach the son of Remalyahu slew in Judah one hundred and twenty thousand in one day, all being valiant men; because they had forsaken the Lord, the God of their fathers.
Kotahi hoki te rau e rua tekau mano i patua e Peka tama a Remaria ki Hura i te ra kotahi, he hunga maia katoa; mo ratou i whakarere i a Ihowa, i te Atua o o ratou matua.
7 And Zichri, a mighty man of Ephraim, slew Ma'asseyahu the king's son, and 'Azrikam the governor of the house, and Elkanah the second in rank to the king.
Na i patua e tetahi marohirohi o Eparaima, e Tikiri, a Maaheia tama a te kingi, a Atarikama, rangatira o te whare, me Erekana, to muri i te kingi.
8 And the children of Israel led away captive from their brethren two hundred thousand, women, sons, and daughters, and also much booty did they plunder from them, and they brought the booty to Samaria.
Whakaraua atu ana e nga tama a Iharaira e rua rau mano o o ratou tuakana, teina, nga wahine, nga tamariki, nga tamahine, nui atu hoki o ratou taonga i pahuatia e ratou; kawea atu ana e ratou nga taonga ki Hamaria.
9 But there was a prophet of the Lord, 'Oded was his name; and he went out to meet the host that was coming to Samaria, and said unto them, Behold, because of the fury of the Lord the God of your fathers against Judah, hath he given them up into your hand, and ye have slain among them in a rage that reacheth as far as the heavens.
Otiia he poropiti ta te Atua i reira, ko Orere tona ingoa; a ka puta ia ki te whakatau i te taua e haere ana mai ki Hamaria, ka mea ki a ratou, Nana, he riri no Ihowa, no te Atua o o koutou matua, ki a Hura i homai ai ratou e ia ki o koutou ringa; patua iho e koutou, tutuki noa te riri ki te rangi.
10 And now ye think to force the children of Judah and Jerusalem to become bond-men and bond-women unto you; but surely are there not with you, even with you, trespasses against the Lord your God?
Heoi kei te mea koutou kia pehia ki raro nga tama o Hura, o Hiruharama, hei pononga tane, hei pononga wahine ma koutou; engari kahore ranei i a koutou na o koutou he hoki ki a Ihowa, ki to koutou Atua?
11 And now hear me, and restore the captives, whom ye have taken captive from your brethren; for the fierce wrath of the Lord is over you.
Tena, whakarongo ki ahau, whakahokia nga whakarau i whakaraua mai e koutou i o koutou tuakana, teina; no te mea kei te mura te riri o Ihowa, o to koutou Atua, ki a koutou.
12 Then arose certain men of the heads of the children of Ephraim, 'Azaryahu the son of Jehochanan, Berechyahu the son of Meshillemoth, and Jechizkiyahu the son of Shallum, and 'Amassa the son of Chadlai, against those that were come from the army.
Katahi ka whakatika etahi o nga upoko o nga tama a Eparaima, a Ataria tama a Iehohanana, a Perekia tama a Mehiremoto, a Hetekia tama a Harumu, ratou ko Amaha tama a Hararai, ka tu atu ki te hunga i haere mai nei i te whawhai,
13 And they said unto them, Ye shall not bring in the captives hither; for in addition to the guiltiness against the Lord [resting] on us, ye think to add unto our sins and unto our guiltiness; for great is the guiltiness [resting] on us, and there is fierce wrath over Israel.
A ka mea ki a ratou, kei kawea mai e koutou nga whakarau na ki konei: ko ta koutou hoki e mea na hei homai ki a tatou he he ki a Ihowa, e whakanekehia ake ai o tatou hara me to tatou he: he nui hoki to tatou he, a he riri tenei te mura nei ki a Iharaira.
14 So the armed men abandoned the captives and the spoil before the princes and all the assembly.
Heoi whakarerea iho e nga tangata i nga patu nga whakarau, me nga taonga i te aroaro o nga rangatira ratou ko te huihui katoa.
15 And then arose the men who have been expressed by name, and took hold of the captives, and all that were naked among them they clothed from the booty; and they gave them garments and shoes, and gave them to eat and to drink, and anointed them, and carried all the feeble of them upon asses, and brought them to Jericho, the city of palm-trees, near their brethren; and then did they return to Samaria.
Na ka whakatika nga tangata i whakahuatia o ratou ingoa, ka mau ki nga whakarau, whakakakahuria ana e ratou ki nga taonga nga mea kakahukore o ratou; whakakakahuria ana e ratou, whakawhiwhi rawa ki te hu, hoatu ana he mea hei kai, hei inu, whaka wahia ana, kawea ana nga mea kahakore katoa o ratou i runga i te kaihe, a tae noa ki Heriko, ki te pa nikau ki o ratou tuakana, teina. Na hoki ana ratou ki Hamaria.
16 At that time sent king Achaz unto the kings of Assyria to help him.
I taua wa ka unga tangata a Kingi Ahata ki nga kingi o Ahiria hei awhina mona.
17 Moreover the Edomites came again and defeated [the men of] Judah, and carried away captives.
No te mea kua tae mai ano nga Eromi; patua iho e ratou a Hura, whakaraua atu ana etahi whakarau.
18 And the Philistines invaded the cities of the lowlands, and of the south of Judah, and captured Beth-shemesh, and Ayalon, and Gederoth, and Socho with its villages, and Thimnah with its villages, and Gimzo with its villages; and they dwelt there.
Kua whakaekea hoki e nga Pirihitini nga pa o te raorao, o te taha ki te tonga o Hura, a riro ana i a ratou a Petehemehe, a Atarono, a Kereroto, a Hoko me ona pa ririki, a Timina me ona pa ririki, a Kimito me ona pa ririki: nohoia iho e ratou.
19 For the Lord humbled Judah on account of Achaz the king of Israel; for he made Judah unruly, and acted very faithlessly against the Lord.
Na Ihowa hoki i whakaiti a Hura, mo ta Ahata, mo ta te kingi o Iharaira; mo tana mahi wairangi i roto i a Hura, nui atu hoki tona he ki a Ihowa.
20 Then came against him Tilgath-pilneesser the king of Assyria, and distressed him, but strengthened him not.
Na ka haere a Tirikata Pirinehere kingi o Ahiria ki a ia, ka whakararuraru i a ia, kihai hoki i whakakaha i a ia.
21 Although Achaz took away a portion [out] of the house of the Lord, and [out] of the house of the king, and of the princes, and gave it unto the king of Assyria: he yet gave him no assistance.
I tangohia hoki e Ahata tetahi wahi i roto i te whare o Ihowa, i te whare ano o te kingi ratou ko nga rangatira, a hoatu ana ki te kingi o Ahiria; kihai ano tera i awhina i a ia.
22 And in the time that he distressed him, became he yet more faithless against the Lord, —yea, he, king Achaz;
Na i te wa i he ai ia, ka tohe ano ia ki te he ki a Ihowa, taua kingi a Ahata.
23 And he sacrificed unto the gods of [the people of] Damascus, who had smitten him; and he said, Because the gods of the kings of Syria do help them, [therefore] will I sacrifice unto them, that they may help me. But they only became to him a stumbling-block for him and for all Israel.
I patu whakahere hoki ia ki nga atua o Ramahiku i patu nei i a ia; i ki hoki ia, Ko nga atua o nga kingi o Hiria kei te awhina i a ratou, na, me patu whakahere ahau ki a ratou, kia awhina ai ratou i ahau. Otiia ko ratou ano hei whakangoikore i a ia, i a Iharaira katoa ano hoki.
24 And Achaz gathered up the vessels of the house of God, and cut in pieces the vessels of the house of God, and locked up the doors of the house of the Lord, and he made for himself altars in every corner of Jerusalem.
Na ka huihuia e Ahata nga oko o te whare o te Atua, tapatapahia ana e ia nga oko o te whare o te Atua, a tutakina ana e ia nga tatau o te whare o Ihowa. I hanga ano e ia etahi aata mana ki nga koki katoa o Hiruharama.
25 And in each and every city of Judah made he high-places to burn incense unto other gods; and he provoked to anger the Lord the God of his fathers.
I hanga ano e ia ki nga pa o Hura etahi wahi tiketike hei tahu whakakakara ki nga atua ke, whakapataritaria ana e ia a Ihowa, te Atua o ona matua.
26 And the rest of his acts and of all his ways, the first and the last, behold, they are written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.
Na, ko era meatanga atu ana, ko ana meatanga katoa o mua, o muri, nana, kua oti te tuhituhi ki te pukapuka o nga kingi o Hura raua ko Iharaira.
27 And Achaz slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the city, in Jerusalem; for they brought him not into the sepulchres of the kings of Israel: and Hezekiah his son became king in his stead.
Na kua moe a Ahata ki ona matua, a tanumia iho ki te pa, ki Hiruharama; otiia kihai i kawea ki nga tanumanga o nga kingi o Iharaira; a ko Hetekia, ko tana tama, te kingi i muri i a ia.
