2 Samuel 24
1 And again was the anger of Yahweh kindled against Israel, —so that he suffered David to be moved against them, saying, Go, count Israel and Judah.
Na ka mura ano te riri o Ihowa ki a Iharaira, a ka whakatutehu ia i a Rawiri ki te he mo ratou, ki te mea, Tikina, taua a Iharaira raua ko Hura.
2 The king, therefore, said unto Joab, captain of the force, who was with him—Go to and fro, I pray thee, throughout all the tribes of Israel, from Dan even unto Beer -sheba, and number ye the people, —so shall I know the sum of the people.
Na ko te kianga a te kingi ki a Ioapa ki te rangatira ope, i reira ia i a ia, Tena, haereerea nga iwi katoa o Iharaira mai o Rana a tae noa ki Peerehepa, ka tatau i te iwi, kia mohio ai ahau ki te toputanga o te iwi.
3 Then said Joab unto the king—Yea, Yahweh thy God add unto the people, how many soever they be, a hundredfold, and [suffer] the eyes of my lord the king, to see it, —but, my lord the king, wherefore doth he find pleasure in this thing?
Ano ra ko Ioapa ki te kingi, Ma Ihowa, ma tou Atua e mea te iwi kia tatakirau noa atu i to ratou tokomaha i a ratou nei, a kia kite hoki nga kanohi o toku ariki, o te kingi: otiia he aha toku ariki, te kingi i ahuareka ai ki tenei mea?
4 Notwithstanding, the word of the king prevailed against Joab, and over the captains of the force, —so Joab went forth, with the captains of the force, before the king, to number the people—Israel.
He ahakoa ra, u tonu te kupu a te kingi ki a Ioapa ratou ko nga rangatira ope. Na haere atu ana a Ioapa ratou ko nga rangatira ope i te aroaro o te kingi ki te tatau i te iwi, i a Iharaira.
5 And they passed over the Jordan, —and encamped in Aroer, on the right side of the city, that is in the midst of the ravine of Gad, even towards Jazer.
Na ka whiti ratou i Horano, ka noho ki Aroere, ki te taha ki matau o te pa i waenganui o te awaawa o Kara, a tae noa ki Iatere:
6 Thus came they to Gilead, and unto the land of Tahtim-hodshi, —and came to Dan-jaan, and round about Zidon;
Katahi ka tae ratou ki Kireara, ki te whenua o Tahatimihorohi, a ka tae ki Ranaiaana a awhio haere ana ki Hairona;
7 and entered the fortress of Tyre, and all the cities of the Hivites, and of the Canaanites, —and they went out to the South of Judah, even to Beer-sheba.
A ka tae ki te pa kaha ki Taira, ki nga pa katoa o nga Hiwi, o nga Kanaani: a puta ana ratou ki te tonga o Hura, ki Peerehepa.
8 So, when they had gone to and fro throughout all the land, they came, at the end of nine months and twenty days, unto Jerusalem.
Na, ka oti te whenua katoa te haereere e ratou, ka tae ratou ki Hiruharama i te paunga o nga marama e iwa, o nga ra e rua tekau.
9 And Joab delivered up the sum of the number of the people, unto the king, —and there were found to be, in Israel, eight hundred thousand men of valour, drawing the sword, —and, the men of Judah, five hundred thousand men.
Na ka homai e Ioapa te toputanga o te iwi i taua ki te kingi: a e waru rau mano nga marohirohi i roto i a Iharaira, he hunga mau hoari; a e rima rau mano nga tangata o Hura.
10 And the heart of David smote him, after he had reckoned up the people, —and David said unto Yahweh—I have sinned greatly, in what I have done, Now, therefore, O Yahweh, take away, I beseech thee, the iniquity of thy servant, for I have done very foolishly.
Na ka patu te ngakau o Rawiri i a ia i muri i tana tauanga i te iwi. A ka mea a Rawiri ki a Ihowa, Nui atu toku hara i taku i mea nei: na, tena, kia whakarerea noatia iho, e Ihowa, te he o tau pononga; nui atu hoki te kuware o taku i mea ai.
11 And, when David arose in the morning, the word of Yahweh, had come unto Gad the prophet, the seer of David, saying:
Na, i te marangatanga ake o Rawiri i te ata, ka puta te kupu a Ihowa ki a Kara poropiti, ki ta Rawiri matakite, i mea ia,
12 Go and speak unto David—Thus, saith Yahweh, Three things, do I offer thee, —choose thee one of them, that I may do it unto thee.
Haere, mea atu ki a Rawiri, ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, E toru nga mea ka whakaaria e ahau ki a koe; whiriwhiria e koe tetahi o aua mea, a ka meatia e ahau ki a koe.
13 So Gad came in unto David, and told him, —and said to him: Shall there come unto thee seven years of famine in thy land? Or, for three months, wilt thou flee before thine enemies while, they, pursue thee? Or shall there be, for three days, pestilence in thy land? Now, consider and see, what, answer, I shall return to him that sent me.
Heoi ka tae a Kara ki a Rawiri, a ka korero ki a ia, ka mea, Kia tae atu ranei ki a koe etahi tau matekai e whitu ki tou whenua? kia toru ranei nga marama e rere ai koe i te aroaro o ou hoariri, me ta ratou whai ano i a koe? kia toru ranei nga r a o te mate uruta ki tou whenua? Na whakaaroa e koe kia kitea ai taku kupu e whakahoki ai ki toku kaitono mai.
14 And David said unto Gad—I am in a great strait, —let us fall, I pray thee, into the hand of Yahweh, for, manifold, are, his compassions, but, into the hand of man, let me not fall.
Ano ra ko Rawiri ki a Kara, he noa iho oku whakaaro: na kia taka tatou aianei ki roto ki te ringa o Ihowa, he nui hoki ana mahi tohu; a kaua ahau e taka ki te ringa o te tangata.
15 So Yahweh sent forth a pestilence throughout Israel, from the morning even unto the time appointed, —and there died of the people, from Dan even unto Beer-sheba, seventy thousand men.
Heoi whakapangia ana e Ihowa he mate uruta ki a Iharaira, o te ata iho ano a taea noatia te wa i whakaritea: a mate ake o te iwi, o Rana a tae noa ki Peerehepa, e whitu tekau mano tangata.
16 But, when the messenger stretched out his hand towards Jerusalem, to destroy it, then relented Yahweh as to the evil, and he said to the messenger who was destroying the people—Enough! now, stay thy hand. And, the messenger of Yahweh, was by the threshing-floor of Araunah the Jebusite.
A, no te toronga atu o te ringa o te anahera ki Hiruharama whakangaro ai, ka puta ke to Ihowa whakaaro mo te kino, a ka mea ia ki te anahera e whakangaro ana i te iwi, Kua nui tenei: kati tou ringa. A, i te patunga witi a Arauna Iepuhi, te anahe ra a Ihowa.
17 Then said David unto Yahweh, when he saw the messenger who was smiting the people, yea he said—Lo! I, have sinned, and, I, have done perversely, but what have, these sheep, done? Let thy hand, I pray thee, be against me, and against the house of my father!
I korero hoki a Rawiri ki a Ihowa i tona kitenga i te anahera i patua ai te iwi, i mea, Ina, kua hara ahau, kua mahi i te mahi he: ko enei hipi ia, i aha ratou? Tena, kia pa tou ringa ki ahau, ki te whare ano o toku papa.
18 And Gad came unto David, on that day, —and said unto him—Go up, rear thou unto Yahweh an altar, in the threshing-floor of Araunah the Jebusite.
Na ka haere a Kara ki a Rawiri i taua ra, a ka mea ki a ia, Haere ki runga, whakaarahia he aata ki a Ihowa ki te patunga witi a Arauna Iepuhi.
19 So David went up, according to the word of Gad, as Yahweh had commanded.
Na whakatika ana a Rawiri, pera ana me te kupu a Kara, me ta Ihowa i whakahau ai.
20 And Araunah looked out, and saw the king, and his servants, passing over unto him—so Araunah went forth, and did homage unto the king, with his face to the ground.
A ka titiro atu a Arauna, ka kite i te kingi ratou ko ana tangata e haere mai ana ki a ia: na ka puta atu a Arauna, piko ana ki te kingi, ahu ana tona mata ki te whenua.
21 Then said Araunah, Wherefore, hath my lord the king come unto his servant? And David said—To buy of thee the threshing-floor, to build an altar unto Yahweh, that the plague may be stayed from off the people.
Na ka mea a Arauna, He aha toku ariki, te kingi, i haere mai ai ki tana pononga? Na ka mea a Rawiri, Ki te hoki i tau patunga witi, kia hanga ai he aata ki a Ihowa, kia mutu ai te whiunga o te iwi.
22 Then said Araunah unto David, Let my lord the king accept it and cause to ascend what is good in his own eyes, —see! the oxen for the ascending-sacrifice, and the threshing-sledges and ox-yokes for wood.
Na ka mea a Arauna ki a Rawiri, Me tango e toku ariki, e te kingi, me whakaeke te mea e pai ana ki tana titiro: nana, nga kau hei tahunga tinana, me nga patu witi, me nga mea o nga kau hei wahie!
23 The whole, did Araunah give, as a king to a king. And Araunah said unto the king, Yahweh thy God, accept thee!
Ko enei katoa, e te kingi, e hoatu ana e Arauna ki te kingi. I mea ano a Arauna ki te kingi, Kia manako a Ihowa, tou Atua ki a koe
24 But the king said unto Araunah—Nay! but I will, buy, it of thee, for a price, and will not cause to ascend unto Yahweh my God, offerings that have cost me nothing. So David bought the threshing-floor, and the oxen, for fifty shekels of silver;
Na ka mea te kingi ki a Arauna, Kahore, engari me ata hoki e ahau tou wahi ki te utu, e kore hoki e whakaherea e ahau he tahunga tinana ki a Ihowa, ki toku Atua, kahore i utua e ahau. Heoi hokona ana e Rawiri taua patunga witi me nga kau ki te h iriwa, e rima tekau hekere.
25 and David built there an altar unto Yahweh, and caused to go up ascending-sacrifices and peace-offerings, —then was Yahweh entreated for the land, and the plague was stayed from Israel.
A hanga ana e Rawiri he aata ki reira ma Ihowa, whakaekea ana e ia etahi tahunga tinana me etahi whakahere mo te pai. Heoi ka marie a Ihowa ki te whenua, a ka mutu te mate uruta ki a Iharaira.
