2 Chronicles 2
1 And Solomon saith to build a house for the name of Jehovah, and a house for his kingdom,
Na ka mea a Horomona kia hanga he whare mo te ingoa o Ihowa, he whare hoki mo tona kingitanga.
2 and Solomon numbereth seventy thousand men bearing burden, and eighty thousand men hewing in the mountain, and overseers over them — three thousand and six hundred.
Na ka taua e Horomona e whitu tekau mano tangata hei kaipikau, e waru tekau mano hoki hei tua i runga i te maunga, me nga kaitirotiro i a ratou e toru mano e ono rau.
3 And Solomon sendeth unto Huram king of Tyre, saying, 'When thou hast dealt with David my father, then thou dost send to him cedars to build for him a house to dwell in;
Na ka tuku tangata a Horomona ki a Hurama kingi o Taira hei ki atu, Kia rite ki tau i mea ai ki toku papa, ki a Rawiri; i tukua mai hoki e koe he hita kia kawea mai mana, hei hanga i tetahi whare mona hei nohoanga, kia pera hoki tau ki ahau.
4 lo, I am building a house to the name of Jehovah my God, to sanctify [it] to Him, to make perfume before Him, perfume of spices, and a continual arrangement, and burnt-offerings at morning and at evening, at sabbaths, and at new moons, and at appointed seasons of Jehovah our God; to the age this [is] on Israel.
Nana, ka hanga e ahau he whare mo te ingoa o Ihowa, o toku Atua, ka whakatapua mona, hei tahunga mo te whakakakara reka ki tona aroaro, mo te taro aroaro tuturu, mo nga tahunga tinana o te ata, o te ahiahi, o nga hapati, o nga kowhititanga marama, o nga hakari o Ihowa, o to matou Atua. He tikanga tenei ake ake ma Iharaira.
5 'And the house that I am building [is] great, for greater [is] our God than all gods;
Na he nui te whare ka hanga nei e ahau; he nui hoki to matou Atua i nga atua katoa.
6 and who doth retain strength to build to Him a house, for the heavens, even the heavens of the heavens, do not contain Him? and who [am] I that I do build to Him a house, except to make perfume before Him?
Otira ko wai e ahei te hanga whare mona? kahore nei hoki e nui te rangi me te rangi o nga rangi hei nohoanga mona. Ko wai koai ahau hei hanga whare mona, heoi nei hei tahu whakakakara ki tona aroaro?
7 'And now, send to me a wise man to work in gold, and in silver, and in brass, and in iron, and in purple, and crimson, and blue, and knowing to grave gravings with the wise men who [are] with me in Judah and in Jerusalem, whom David my father prepared;
Tena, unga mai ki ahau tetahi tangata e mohio ana ki te mahi i te koura, i te hiriwa, i te parahi, i te rino, i te mea papura, whero, puru, e mohio ana ki te mahi i nga ahau whakairo katoa, hei hoa mo te hunga mohio i ahau nei, i a Hura, i Hiruha rama, mo te hunga i whakatuturia e toku papa, e Rawiri.
8 and send to me cedar-trees, firs, and algums from Lebanon, for I have known that thy servants know to cut down trees of Lebanon, and lo, my servants [are] with thy servants,
Tukua mai ano hoki ki ahau he rakau hita, he kauri, he aramuka i Repanona: e matau ana hoki ahau he hunga mohio au tangata ki te tapahi rakau i Repanona. Na ko aku tangata hei hoa mo au tangata,
9 even to prepare for me trees in abundance, for the house that I am building [is] great and wonderful.
Hei whakapai rakau maku, kia maha; no te mea he nui te whare ka hanga nei e ahau, he mea ka miharotia.
10 'And lo, to hewers, to those cutting the trees, I have given beaten wheat to thy servants, cors twenty thousand, and barley, cors twenty thousand, and wine, baths twenty thousand, and oil, baths twenty thousand.'
Nana, ko taku e hoatu ai ki au tangata, ki nga kaitarai, ki nga kaitapahi i nga rakau, he witi, he mea patu, e rua tekau mano mehua, he parei e rua tekau mano mehua, he waina e rua tekau mano pati, he hinu e rua tekau mano pati.
11 And Huram king of Tyre saith in writing, and sendeth unto Solomon: 'In the love of Jehovah to His people He hath given thee king over them.'
Na ka whakautua e Hurama kingi o Taira, he mea tuhituhi, tukua ai e ia ki a Horomona, He aroha no Ihowa ki tana iwi i homai ai koe e ia hei kingi mo ratou.
12 And Huram saith, 'Blessed [is] Jehovah, God of Israel, who made the heavens and the earth, who hath given to David the king a wise son, knowing wisdom and understanding, who doth build a house for Jehovah, and a house for his kingdom.
I mea ano a Hurama, Kia whakapaingia a Ihowa, te Atua o Iharaira, nana nei i hanga te rangi me te whenua, nana hoki i homai ki a Kingi Rawiri he tama ngarahu tika, e hua ana ona whakaaro, tona mohio, hei hanga i te whare mo Ihowa, i te whare ano mo tona kingitanga.
13 'And now, I have sent a wise man having understanding, of Huram my father,
Na kua unga atu nei e ahau tetahi tangata whakaaro, e hua ana tona mohio, na toku papa, na Hurama,
14 (son of a woman of the daughters of Dan, and his father a man of Tyre), knowing to work in gold, and in silver, in brass, in iron, in stones, and in wood, in purple, in blue, and in fine linen, and in crimson, and to grave any graving, and to devise any device that is given to him, with thy wise men, and the wise men of my lord David thy father.
He tama na tetahi wahine o nga tamahine a Rana, ko tona papa he tangata no Taira, he mohio ki te mahi koura, hiriwa, parahi, rino, kohatu, rakau, papaura, puru, rinena pai, whero; ki te whakairo hoki i nga whakairo katoa, ki te whakatauria i nga whakaaro katoa e hoatu ki a ia; hei hoa mo au mea mohio, mo nga mea mohio ano hoki a toku ariki, a Rawiri, a tou papa.
15 'And, now, the wheat, and the barley, the oil, and the wine, as my lord said, let him send to his servants,
Na, ko te witi, ko te parei, ko te hinu, ko te waina, i korerotia mai na e toku ariki, mana e homai ki ana pononga;
16 and we — we cut trees out of Lebanon, according to all thy need, and bring them in to thee — floats by sea, to Joppa, and thou dost take them up to Jerusalem.'
A ma matou e tapahi he rakau i Repanona, kia rite ki au e mea ai mau: ka whakatere atu ai ki a koe i te moana ki Hopa, a mau e taritari ki Hiruharama.
17 And Solomon numbereth all the men, the sojourners who [are] in the land of Israel, after the numbering with which David his father numbered them, and they are found a hundred and fifty thousand, and three thousand, and six hundred;
Na ka taua e Horomona nga tangata iwi ke i te whenua o Iharaira i muri i te tauanga i taua ai e tona papa e Rawiri; a ka kitea kotahi rau e rima tekau ma toru mano e ono rau.
18 and he maketh of them seventy thousand burden-bearers, and eighty thousand hewers in the mountain, and three thousand and six hundred overseers, to cause the people to work.
A ka meinga etahi o ratou, e whitu tekau mano, hei kaipikau, e waru tekau mano ano hei tarai i runga i te maunga, e toru mano e ono rau hei kaitirotiro, hei whakamahi i te iwi.
