1 Chronicles 21
1 And an adversary up against Israel, and moved David to number Israel.
Na ka tu a Hatana hei hoariri mo Iharaira, a ka whakakiki a Rawiri ki te tatau i a Iharaira.
2 And David said to Joab and to the leaders of the people, "Go, number Israel from Beersheba even to Dan; and bring me word, that I may know the sum of them."
Na ka ki a Rawiri ki a Ioapa ratou ko nga rangatira o te iwi, Tikina taua a Iharaira, o Peerehepa atu a tae noa ki Rana, ka kawe mai ai i to ratou tokomaha ki ahau, kia mohio ai ahau.
3 Joab said, "May Jehovah make his people a hundred times as many as they are. But, my lord the king, aren't they all my lord's servants? Why does my lord require this thing? Why will he be a cause of guilt to Israel?"
Ano ra ko Ioapa, Ma Ihowa e mea tana iwi kia rau noa atu i a ratou e noho nei, otiia, e toku ariki, e te kingi, ehara ianei ratou katoa i te pononga na toku ariki? He aha ra tenei i whaia ai e toku ariki? he aha i waiho ai hei take he mo Iharaira?
4 Nevertheless the king's word prevailed against Joab. Therefore Joab departed, and went throughout all Israel, and came to Jerusalem.
Otiia kaha tonu ta te kingi kupu i ta Ioapa. Heoi ka turia atu e Ioapa, haereerea ana e ia a Iharaira katoa; kua tae ki Hiruharama.
5 Joab gave up the sum of the numbering of the people to David. All those of Israel were one million one hundred thousand men who drew sword: and in Judah were four hundred seventy thousand men who drew sword.
Na ka homai e Ioapa te tokomaha o te iwi i taua ki a Rawiri. Na a Iharaira katoa, he mano nga mano me nga mano kotahi rau, he hunga unu hoari; na a Hura, e wha rau e whitu tekau mano nga tangata unu hoari.
6 But he did not count Levi and Benjamin among them; for the king's word was abominable to Joab.
Ko Riwai ia raua ko Pineamine, kihai i taua e ia i roto i a ratou; he mea whakarihariha hoki ki a Ioapa te kupu a te kingi.
7 God was displeased with this thing; therefore he struck Israel.
Na ka riri te Atua ki tenei mea; a patua ana a Iharaira e ia.
8 David said to God, "I have sinned greatly, in that I have done this thing. But now, put away, I beg you, the iniquity of your servant; for I have done very foolishly."
Na ka mea a Rawiri ki te Atua, Nui atu toku hara i ahau i mea i tenei mea: na, tena, kia whakarerea noatia iho te he o tau pononga, nui atu hoki toku kuware.
9 Jehovah spoke to Gad, David's seer, saying,
Na ka puta te kupu a Ihowa ki ta Rawiri matakite, ki a Kara; i ki ia,
10 "Go and speak to David, saying, 'Thus says Jehovah, "I offer you three things. Choose one of them, that I may do it to you."'"
Haere, ki atu ki a Rawiri, mea atu, Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, E toru enei mea ka whakaaria atu nei e ahau ki a koe, whiriwhiria tetahi o enei mau, a ka meatia e ahau ki a koe.
11 So Gad came to David, and said to him, "Thus says Jehovah, 'Take your choice:
Heoi, ko te taenga o Kara ki a Rawiri, ka mea ki a ia, Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, Whiriwhiria mau,
12 either three years of famine; or three months of fleeing from before your foes, while the sword of your enemies overtakes you; or else three days the sword of Jehovah, even pestilence in the land, and the angel of Jehovah destroying throughout all the borders of Israel. Now therefore consider what answer I shall return to him who sent me.'"
Kia toru ranei nga tau matekai; kia toru ranei nga marama e whakangaromia ai koe i te aroaro o ou hoariri, me te hoari a ou hoa whawhai e hopu ana i a koe? kia toru ranei nga ra o te hoari a Ihowa, ara o te mate uruta ki te whenua, me te anahera a Ihowa e whakangaro ana, i nga rohe katoa o Iharaira. Na whakaaroa te kupu e whakahokia e ahau ki toku kaitono mai.
13 David said to Gad, "I am in distress. Let me fall, I pray, into the hand of Jehovah; for his mercies are very great. Let me not fall into the hand of man."
Ano ra ko Rawiri ki a Kara, He noa iho oku whakaaro; na kia taka ahau ki te ringa o Ihowa, he nui hoki ana mahi aroha; kaua hoki ahau e taka ki te ringa tangata.
14 So Jehovah sent a pestilence on Israel; and seventy thousand men of Israel fell.
Heoi whakapangia ana e Ihowa he mate uruta ki a Iharaira: a hinga iho o Iharaira e whitu tekau mano tangata.
15 God sent an angel to Jerusalem to destroy it. As he was about to destroy, Jehovah saw, and he relented of the disaster, and said to the destroying angel, "It is enough; now stay your hand." The angel of Jehovah was standing by the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite.
I tonoa ano e te Atua he anahera ki Hiruharama whakangaro ai; a ia a ia e mea ana ki te whakangaro, ka titiro a Ihowa, na ka puta ke to Ihowa whakaaro mo te kino, a ka mea ki te anahera whakangaro, Kua nui: kati tou ringa. Na tu ana te anahera a Ihowa i te patunga witi a Oronana Iepuhi.
16 David lifted up his eyes, and saw the angel of Jehovah standing between earth and the sky, having a drawn sword in his hand stretched out over Jerusalem. Then David and the elders, clothed in sackcloth, fell on their faces.
Na ka ara nga kanohi o Rawiri, ka kite i te anahera a Ihowa e tu ana i te takiwa o te whenua, o te rangi, me tana hoari, unu rawa, i tona ringa, e totoro ana ki runga i Hiruharama. Katahi ka tapapa a Rawiri ratou ko nga kaumatua, he kakahu tarat ara te hipoki.
17 David said to God, "Isn't it I who commanded the people to be numbered? It is even I who have sinned and done very wickedly; but these sheep, what have they done? Please let your hand, Jehovah my God, be against me, and against my father's house; but not against your people, that they should be plagued."
Ka mea a Rawiri ki te Atua, He teka ianei naku i ki kia taua te iwi? Ko ahau tenei te mea i hara, i mahi nei i te he; ko enei hipi ia, i aha ratou? E Ihowa, e toku Atua, kia pa ra tou ringa ki ahau, ki te whare ano o toku papa; kauaka ia ki tau iwi, hei whiu mo ratou.
18 Then the angel of Jehovah commanded Gad to tell David that David should go up, and raise an altar to Jehovah in the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite.
Katahi ka korero te anahera a Ihowa ki a Kara kia mea ia ki a Rawiri, kia haere a Rawiri ki runga, ki te whakaara i tetahi aata ki a Ihowa ki te patunga witi a Oronana Iepuhi.
19 David went up at the saying of Gad, which he spoke in the name of Jehovah.
Na haere ana a Rawiri i ta Kara korero i korero ai ia i runga i te ingoa o Ihowa.
20 Ornan turned back, and saw the king, and his four sons who were with him hiding themselves. Now Ornan was threshing wheat.
Na ka tahuri ake a Oronana, ka kite i te anahera; a piri ana ia, ratou ko ana tama tokowha. Na i te patu witi a Oronana.
21 As David came to Ornan, Ornan looked and saw David, and went out of the threshing floor, and bowed himself to David with his face to the ground.
Na, i a Rawiri e haere ana ki a Oronana, ka titiro a Oronana a ka kite i a Rawiri, na puta ana ia i te patunga witi, piko ana ki a Rawiri, tapapa ana ki te whenua.
22 Then David said to Ornan, "Give me the place of this threshing floor, that I may build thereon an altar to Jehovah. You shall sell it to me for the full price, that the plague may be stopped from afflicting the people."
Katahi ka mea a Rawiri ki a Oronana, Homai ki ahau te wahi i tenei patunga witi, kia hanga ai e ahau he aata ki a Ihowa; kia tino rite te utu ka homai ai e koe ki ahau, kia mutu ai te whiunga o te iwi.
23 Ornan said to David, "Take it for yourself, and let my lord the king do that which is good in his eyes. Look, I give the oxen for burnt offerings, and the threshing instruments for wood, and the wheat for the meal offering. I give it all."
Na ka mea a Oronana ki a Rawiri, Me tango mau, a ma toku ariki, ma te kingi e mea te mea e pai ana ki tana titiro; nana, ka hoatu e ahau ki a koe nga kau hei tahunga tinana, me nga patu witi hei wahie, me te witi ano hei whakahere totokore; ka h oatu katoa e ahau.
24 King David said to Ornan, "No; but I will most certainly buy it for the full price. For I will not take that which is yours for Jehovah, nor offer a burnt offering without cost."
Na ka mea a Kingi Rawiri ki a Oronana, Kahore; engari ka hokona e ahau kia rite ano nga utu: e kore hoki ahau e tango i tau ma Ihowa, e kore hoki e whakaeke i nga mea kihai i utua hei tahunga tinana.
25 So David gave to Ornan six hundred shekels of gold by weight for the place.
Heoi e ono rau nga hekere koura, he mea pauna, i hoatu e Rawiri ki a Oronana mo taua wahi.
26 David built an altar to Jehovah there, and offered burnt offerings and peace offerings, and called on Jehovah; and he answered him from heaven by fire on the altar of burnt offering, and it consumed the burnt offering.
A hanga ana e Rawiri he aata ki reira ma Ihowa, whakaekea ana he tahunga tinana, he whakahere mo te pai, a karanga ana ki a Ihowa. Na ka whakahokia tana i te rangi, he ahi ki runga ki te aata tahunga tinana.
27 Jehovah commanded the angel; and he put up his sword again into its sheath.
Na ka korero a Ihowa ki te anahera, a whakahokia ana e ia tana hoari ki tona takotoranga.
28 At that time, when David saw that Jehovah had answered him in the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite, then he sacrificed there.
I taua wa ano, i te kitenga o Rawiri kua whakarongo a Ihowa ki a ia i te patunga witi a Oronana Iephui, ka mea patunga tapu ia ki reira.
29 For the tabernacle of Jehovah, which Moses made in the wilderness, and the altar of burnt offering, were at that time in the high place at Gibeon.
Ko te tapenakara hoki o Ihowa i hanga nei e Mohi ki te koraha, me te aata tahunga tinana, i te wahi tiketike i Kipeono i taua wa.
30 But David couldn't go before it to inquire of God; for he was afraid because of the sword of the angel of Jehovah.
Kihai ia a Rawiri i ahei te haere ki mua o taua aata ki te rapu i ta te Atua; i wehi hoki ia i te hoari a te anahera a Ihowa.
