< 1 Chronicles 22 >
1 Then David said, This [is] the house of the LORD God, and this [is] the altar of the burnt-offering for Israel.
Katahi ka ki a Rawiri, ko te whare tenei o Ihowa, o te Atua, ko te aata tahunga tinana ano tenei ma Iharaira.
2 And David commanded to assemble the strangers that [were] in the land of Israel; and he set masons to hew wrought stones to build the house of God.
I whakahau ano a Rawiri kia huihuia nga tangata iwi ke o te whenua o Iharaira; i whakaritea e ia he kaihahau hei hahau kohatu tarai, hei hanga mo te whare o te Atua.
3 And David prepared iron in abundance for the nails for the doors of the gates, and for the joinings; and brass in abundance without weight;
I mahia ano e Rawiri he rino, tona nui na, hei whao mo nga tatau o nga kuwaha, mo nga hononga, me te parahi ano, he nui noa atu, kihai i paunatia;
4 Also cedar trees in abundance: for the Zidonians and they of Tyre brought much cedar wood to David.
Me te rakau, he hita, kihai i taua; he maha hoki nga rakau, nga hita, i kawea mai e nga tangata o Hairona, o Taira, ki a Rawiri.
5 And David said, Solomon my son [is] young and tender, and the house [that is] to be built for the LORD [must be] very magnificent, of fame and of glory throughout all countries: I will [therefore] now make preparation for it. So David made abundant preparation before his death.
Na ka mea a Rawiri, He taitamariki taku tama, a Horomona, he ngawari, a ko te whare e hanga ma Ihowa, kia nui rawa te ingoa, te kororia, i nga whenua katoa: maku e timata te mahi mea mo reira. Na he maha nga mea i pae i a Rawiri i mua i tona mate nga.
6 Then he called for Solomon his son, and charged him to build a house for the LORD God of Israel.
Katahi ka karangatia e ia tana tama a Horomona, a whakahaua ana e ia kia hanga te whare o Ihowa, o te Atua o Iharaira.
7 And David said to Solomon, My son, as for me, it was in my mind to build a house to the name of the LORD my God:
Na ka mea a Rawiri ki a Horomona, ki tana tama, Ko ahau, i whai ngakau ahau ki te hanga i te whare mo te ingoa o Ihowa, o toku Atua.
8 But the word of the LORD came to me, saying, Thou hast shed blood abundantly, and hast made great wars: thou shalt not build a house to my name, because thou hast shed much blood upon the earth in my sight.
Otiia i puta mai te kupu a Ihowa ki ahau; i mea ia, He nui nga toto i whakahekea e koe; he nui nga whawhai i whawhai ai koe. E kore e hanga e koe he whare mo toku ingoa; he nui hoki nga toto i whakahekea e koe ki te whenua ki toku aroaro:
9 Behold, a son shall be born to thee, who shall be a man of rest; and I will give him rest from all his enemies around: for his name shall be Solomon, and I will give peace and quietness to Israel in his days.
Nana, ka whanau he tama mau, he tangata ata noho; ka meinga ano ia e ahau kia ata noho i ona hoariri a tawhio noa: ko tona ingoa ko Horomona, a ka hoatu e ahau te rongo mau, me te rangimarie ki a Iharaira i ona ra.
10 He shall build a house for my name; and he shall be my son, and I [will be] his father; and I will establish the throne of his kingdom over Israel for ever.
Mana e hanga he whare mo toku ingoa; ko ia hei tama ki ahau, ko ahau hei papa ki a ia. Na ka whakapumautia e ahau te torona o tona kingitanga ki a Iharaira a ake ake.
11 Now, my son, the LORD be with thee; and prosper thou, and build the house of the LORD thy God, as he hath said of thee.
Na, e taku tama, kia noho a Ihowa ki a koe; kia kake koe, kia hanga ano e koe te whare o Ihowa, o tou Atua, kia rite ano ki tana kupu mou.
12 Only the LORD give thee wisdom and understanding, and give thee charge concerning Israel, that thou mayest keep the law of the LORD thy God.
Kia homai ano ia e Ihowa he ngakau whakaaro, he mohio, ki a koe, kia whakahaua e ia ki a koe he tikanga mo Iharaira; kia puritia ai e koe te ture a Ihowa, a tou Atua,
13 Then shalt thou prosper, if thou shalt take heed to fulfill the statutes and judgments which the LORD charged Moses with concerning Israel: be strong, and of good courage; dread not, nor be dismayed.
Ko reira koe kake ai, ki te puritia e koe, ki te mahia, nga tikanga, me nga whakaritenga i whakahaua e Ihowa ki a Mohi mo Iharaira. Kia kaha, kia maia; kaua e wehi, kaua e pawera.
14 Now behold, in my trouble I have prepared for the house of the LORD a hundred thousand talents of gold, and a thousand thousand talents of silver; and of brass and iron without weight; for it is in abundance: timber also and stone have I prepared; and thou mayest add to them.
Nana, i ahau e he nei, kua pae i ahau he koura mo te whare o Ihowa, kotahi rau mano taranata; he hiriwa, kotahi mano mano taranata; me te parahi, me te rino, e kore e taea te paunga, he nui hoki; me te rakau, me te kohatu, kua pae i ahau. Mau an o e tapiri etahi ki era.
15 Moreover, [there are] workmen with thee in great numbers, hewers and workers of stone and timber, and all manner of skillful men for every manner of work.
Kei a koe ano tona tini o nga kaimahi, o nga kaihahau, o nga kaimahi i te kohatu, i te rakau, me nga mea mohio katoa ki nga mahi katoa.
16 Of the gold, the silver, and the brass, and the iron, [there is] no number. Arise [therefore], and be doing, and the LORD be with thee.
E kore e taea te tatau te koura, te hiriwa, te parahi, te rino. Whakatika, e mahi, a hei a koe a Ihowa.
17 David also commanded all the princes of Israel to help Solomon his son, [saying],
I whakahau ano a Rawiri i nga rangatira katoa o Iharaira kia uru ki te mahi a tana tama, a Horomona; i mea ia,
18 [Is] not the LORD your God with you? and hath he [not] given you rest on every side? for he hath given the inhabitants of the land into my hand; and the land is subdued before the LORD, and before his people.
He teka ianei ko Ihowa, ko to koutou Atua, hei hoa mo koutou? a kua meinga koutou kia ata noho a tawhio noa? kua homai hoki e ia nga tangata o te whenua ki toku ringa; a kua taea te whenua te pehi i te aroaro o Ihowa, i te aroaro ano o tana iwi.
19 Now set your heart and your soul to seek the LORD your God; arise, therefore, and build ye the sanctuary of the LORD God, to bring the ark of the covenant of the LORD, and the holy vessels of God, into the house that is to be built to the name of the LORD.
Na tukua o koutou ngakau, o koutou wairua, ki te rapu i a Ihowa, i to koutou Atua. Whakatika ki te hanga i te wahi tapu o te Atua, o Ihowa, ki te kawe mai ano i te aaka o te kawenata a Ihowa, i nga oko tapu a te Atua, ki te whare ka hanga nei mo te ingoa o Ihowa.
