2 Chronicles 28

1 Ahaz was twenty years old when he began to reign; and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem: and he did not do that which was right in the eyes of Jehovah, 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 Baals.

I haere hoki ia i nga ara o nga kingi o Iharaira, i hanga ano i etahi whakapakoko whakarewa mo nga Paara.

3 Moreover he burnt incense in the Valley of Ben Hinnom, and made his sons pass through the fire, according to the abominations of the nations whom Jehovah cast out 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 He sacrificed and burnt incense in 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 Therefore Jehovah his God delivered him into the hand of the king of Aram; and they struck him, and carried away of his a great multitude of captives, and brought them to Damascus. He was also delivered into the hand of the king of Israel, who struck him 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 For Pekah the son of Remaliah killed in Judah one hundred twenty thousand in one day, all of them valiant men; because they had forsaken Jehovah, 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 Zikri, a mighty man of Ephraim, killed Maaseiah the king's son, and Azrikam the ruler of the house, and Elkanah who was next 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 The children of Israel carried away captive of their brothers two hundred thousand, women, sons, and daughters, and took also away much spoil from them, and brought the spoil 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 a prophet of Jehovah was there, whose name was Oded: and he went out to meet the army that came to Samaria, and said to them, "Look, because Jehovah, the God of your fathers, was angry with Judah, he has delivered them into your hand, and you have slain them in a rage which has reached up to heaven.

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 Now you purpose to keep under the people of Judah and Jerusalem for bondservants and bondmaids for yourselves. Aren't there even with you trespasses of your own against Jehovah 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 Now hear me therefore, and send back the captives, that you have taken captive from your brothers; for the fierce wrath of Jehovah is on 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 some of the heads of the people of Ephraim, Azariah the son of Johanan, Berechiah the son of Meshillemoth, and Jehizkiah the son of Shallum, and Amasa the son of Hadlai, stood up against those who came from the war,

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 said to them, "You shall not bring in the captives here: for you purpose that which will bring on us a trespass against Jehovah, to add to our sins and to our trespass; for our trespass is great, and there is fierce wrath against 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 left the captives and the spoil before the leaders 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 The men who have been mentioned by name rose up, and took the captives, and with the spoil clothed all who were naked among them, dressed them, gave them sandals, and gave them something to eat and to drink, anointed them, carried all the feeble of them on donkeys, and brought them to Jericho, the city of palm trees, to their brothers. Then they returned 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 king Ahaz sent to the king of Assyria to help him.

I taua wa ka unga tangata a Kingi Ahata ki nga kingi o Ahiria hei awhina mona.

17 For again the Edomites had come and struck 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 The Philistines also had invaded the cities of the lowland, and of the Negev of Judah, and had taken Beth Shemesh, and Aijalon, and Gederoth, and Soco with its towns, and Timnah with its towns, Gimzo also and its towns: and they lived 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 Jehovah brought Judah low because of Ahaz king of Israel; for he had dealt wantonly in Judah, and trespassed severely against Jehovah.

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 Tilgath Pilneser king of Assyria came to him, and distressed him, but did not strengthen him.

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 For Ahaz took away a portion out of the house of Jehovah, and out of the house of the king and of the princes, and gave it to the king of Assyria: but it did not help him.

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 In the time of his distress, he trespassed yet more against Jehovah, this same king Ahaz.

Na i te wa i he ai ia, ka tohe ano ia ki te he ki a Ihowa, taua kingi a Ahata.

23 For he sacrificed to the gods of Damascus, which struck him; and he said, "Because the gods of the kings of Aram helped them, so I will sacrifice to them, that they may help me." But they were the ruin of him, and of 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 Ahaz gathered together the vessels of God's house, and cut in pieces the vessels of God's house, and shut up the doors of the house of Jehovah; and he made him 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 In every city of Judah he made high places to burn incense to other gods, and provoked to anger Jehovah, 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 Now the rest of his acts, and all his ways, first and last, look, 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 Ahaz slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the city, even in Jerusalem; for they did not bring him into the tombs of the kings of Israel: and Hezekiah his son reigned in his place.

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.
