1 Then Darius king the he made a decree and they searched - in [the] house books the where treasures the [were] deposited there in Babylon.
Katahi ka puaki ta Tariuha tikanga, a ka rapua i roto i te whare pukapuka, kei reira nei nga taonga e rongoa ana i Papurona.
2 And it was found in Ecbatana in citadel the which [is] in Media province the a scroll one and as follows it was written in midst its memorandum.
Na kua kitea ki Akameta, i roto i te whare kingi i te whenua o nga Meri, he pukapuka, me tetahi kupu whakamahara i tuhituhia ki roto; koia tenei:
3 In year one of Cyrus king the Cyrus king the he made a decree [the] house of God in Jerusalem house the let it be built a place which [they were] sacrificing sacrifices and foundations its [be] retained height its cubits sixty width its cubits sixty.
I te tuatahi o nga tau o Kingi Hairuha i puaki ta Kingi Hairuha tikanga; Mo te whare o te Atua i Hiruharama, Me hanga te whare, te wahi e patua ai nga patunga tapu, kia u ano hoki te whakatakoto o nga turanga; kia ono tekau whatianga te tiketike, kia ono tekau whatianga te whanui;
4 Rows of stone of rolling three and a row of timber new and expense the from [the] house of king the let it be given.
Kia toru nga rarangi o nga kohatu nunui, kia kotahi hoki rarangi o te rakau hou: me hoatu ano nga utu i roto i te whare o te kingi;
5 And also [the] vessels of [the] house of God of gold and silver which Nebuchadnezzar he brought out from temple the which [was] in Jerusalem and he carried to Babylon let them send back and let it go to temple the which [is] in Jerusalem to place its so you may deposit [them] in [the] house of God.
Me whakahoki ano nga oko koura, hiriwa, o te whare o te Atua, i tangohia nei e Nepukaneha i roto i te temepara i Hiruharama, i kawea nei ki Papurona; me kawe ano ki te temepara i Hiruharama, ki tona wahi, ki tona wahi, me whakatakoto e koe ki te whare o te Atua.
6 Now O Tattenai [the] governor of [the] region beyond river the Shethar-Bozenai and associates their officials the who [are] in [the] region beyond river the far be! from there.
Na, e Tatenai, e te kawana i tera taha o te awa, e Hetara Potenai, me o koutou hoa, me nga Aparahaki, i tera taha o te awa, kia matara mai koutou i reira.
7 Leave! [the] work of [the] house of God this [the] governor of Jews the and [the] elders of Jews the [the] house of God this let them build on place its.
Waiho noa atu te mahi o tena whare o te Atua. Waiho atu te kawana o nga Hurai, ratou ko nga kaumatua o nga Hurai, kia mahi ana i tena whare o te Atua i tona wahi.
8 And from me it is made a decree to whatever that you will do with [the] elders of Jews the these to build [the] house of God this and from [the] properti of king the which [is] [the] tribute of [the] region beyond river the diligently expense the let it be given to men the these that not to make to cease.
Tenei ano tetahi tikanga aku mo ta koutou e mea ai ki aua kaumatua o nga Hurai, hei mea mo te hanganga o tenei whare o te Atua: kia hohoro te hoatu i etahi o nga taonga o te kingi, ara o te takoha i tera taha o te awa, ki ena tangata, hei utu mea, kei whakawarea ratou.
9 And whatever things needed and young of bulls and rams and lambs - for burnt offerings - to [the] God of heavens the wheat salt - wine and oil according to [the] word of priests the who [are] in Jerusalem it will be given to them day - by day that not negligence.
Na, ko nga mea e kore ana i a ratou, nga kuao puru, nga hipi toa, nga reme hei tahunga tinana ma te Atua o te rangi, te witi, te tote, te waina, te hinu, nga mea e whakaritea e nga tohunga i Hiruharama, kei mahue te hoatu ki a ratou i tena ra, i tena ra;
10 That they will be offering soothing offerings to [the] God of heavens the and praying for [the] life of king the and sons his.
Kia whakaherea ai e ratou etahi whakahere kakara ki te Atua o te rangi, kia inoi ai mo te kingi, mo ana tama, kia ora.
11 And from me it is made a decree that every person who he will violate command the this let it be pulled away a beam from house his and [he will] be lifted up let him be impaled on it and house his a refuse-heap let it be made on this.
Kua hanga ano hoki e ahau he tikanga, ki te whakaputaia ketia tenei kupu e tetahi, kia unuhia he kurupae i tona whare, a ka whakairi i a ia, ka tarona ai ki runga; kia meinga ano tona whare hei puranga paru, hei utu mo tena.
12 And God who he has caused to dwell name his there may he overthrow every king and people who - he will stretch out hand his to violate to destroy [the] house of God this which [is] in Jerusalem I Darius I make a decree diligently let it be done.
Na ma te Atua nana nei i mea kia noho tona ingoa ki reira, e huna nga kingi katoa, me nga iwi, ina totoro o ratou ringa ki te whakaputa ke, ki te whakangaro i tena whare o te Atua i Hiruharama. Naku, na Tariuha te tikanga i whakatakoto; kia hoho ro te meatanga.
13 Then Tattenai [the] governor of [the] region beyond river the Shethar-Bozenai and associates their before that he had sent Darius king the accordingly diligently they did.
Katahi a Tatenai, te kawana o tera taha o te awa, a Hetara Potenai me o raua hoa, i te mea na Kingi Tariuha i tono mai, ka hohoro tonu ta ratou pera.
14 And [the] elders of Jews the [were] building and prospering by [the] prophesying of Haggai (prophet the *Q(K)*) and Zechariah [the] son of Iddo and they built and they finished according to [the] decree of [the] God of Israel and according to [the] decree of Cyrus and Darius and Artaxerxes [the] king of Persia.
Na kei te hanga nga kaumatua o nga Hurai; tika tonu ta ratou, he mea na te poropititanga a Hakai poropiti raua ko Hakaraia tama a Iro. Na hanga ana ratou, a oti ake; i rite tonu ki te whakahau a te Atua o Iharaira, ki te whakahau a Hairuha, a Ta riuha, a Arataherehe kingi o Pahia.
15 And it was brought forth house the this until day three of [the] month of Adar which it [was] year six of [the] reign of Darius king the.
No te toru o nga ra o te marama Arara i oti ai tenei whare, no te ono ano tera o nga tau o te kingitanga o Kingi Tariuha.
16 And they made [the] people of Israel priests the and Levites the and [the] rest of [the] people of exile the [the] dedication of [the] house of God this with joy.
Na i taia e nga tama a Iharaira, e nga tohunga, e nga Riwaiti, me era atu o nga tama a te whakarau, te kawa o tenei whare o te Atua i runga i te koa.
17 And they offered for [the] dedication of [the] house of God this bulls one hundred rams two hundred lambs four hundred and he-goats of goats (for a sin offering *Q(K)*) on all Israel two [plus] ten to [the] number of [the] tribes of Israel.
Tapaea ana hoki e ratou i te tainga o te kawa o tenei whare o te Atua, kotahi rau puru, e rua rau hipi toa, e wha rau reme; a hei whakahere hara mo Iharaira katoa, kotahi tekau ma rua koati toa, ko te maha hoki ia o nga iwi o Iharaira.
18 And they appointed priests the in divisions their and Levites the in classes their over [the] service of God which [is] in Jerusalem according to [the] writing of [the] book of Moses.
I whakaturia ano e ratou nga tohunga, tenei wehenga, tenei wehenga, me nga Riwaiti, tenei ropu, tenei ropu, mo nga mahi ki te Atua i Hiruharama; ko te mea hoki i tuhituhia ki te pukapuka a Mohi.
19 And they celebrated [the] children of the exile the passover on [day] four-teen of the month the first.
I te tekau ma wha o te marama tuatahi ka mahi nga tama o te whakarau i te kapenga.
20 For they had purified themselves the priests and the Levites as one all of them [were] pure and they slaughtered the passover for all [the] children of the exile and for brothers their the priests and for themselves.
I purea hoki nga tohunga ratou ko nga Riwaiti, he mea pure huihui ratou, a patua ana e ratou te kapenga ma nga tama katoa o te whakarau, ma o ratou tuakana, ma nga tohunga, ma ratou ano hoki.
21 And they ate [the] people of Israel who had returned from the exile and every [one who] had separated himself from [the] uncleanness of [the] nations of the land to them to seek Yahweh [the] God of Israel.
Na ka kai nga tama a Iharaira i hoki mai nei i te whakarau, me te hunga katoa i mawehe mai nei ki a ratou i roto i te poke o nga iwi o te whenua, ki te rapu i a Ihowa, i te Atua o Iharaira,
22 And they celebrated [the] feast of unleavened bread seven days with joy for - he had made rejoice them Yahweh and he had turned [the] heart of [the] king of Assyria towards them to make strong hands their in [the] work of [the] house of God [the] God of Israel.
A ka mahia e ratou te hakari o te taro rawenakore, e whitu nga ra, i runga i te koa: Na Ihowa hoki ratou i mea kia koa, nana hoki i whakaanga mai te ngakau o te kingi o Ahiria ki a ratou, i whakakaha ai ia i o ratou ringa ki te mahi i te whare o te Atua, o te Atua o Iharaira.
