2 Chronicles 29
1 Hezekiah hath reigned — a son of twenty and five years, and twenty and nine years he hath reigned in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother [is] Abijah daughter of Zechariah;
E rua tekau ma rima nga tau o Hetekia i tona kingitanga, a e rua tekau ma iwa nga tau i kingi ai ia ki Hiruharama; ko te ingoa hoki o tona whaea ko Apia, he tamahine na Hakaraia.
2 and he doth that which is right in the eyes of Jehovah, according to all that David his father did.
A he tika tana mahi ki ta Ihowa titiro, i rite ki nga mea katoa i mea ai tona papa, a Rawiri.
3 He, in the first year of his reign, in the first month, hath opened the doors of the house of Jehovah, and strengtheneth them,
I te tuatahi o nga tau o tona kingitanga, i te marama tuatahi, ka uakina e ia nga tatau o te whare o Ihowa, hanga ana e ia kia pai.
4 and bringeth in the priests and the Levites, and gathereth them to the broad place to the east.
Na ka mauria mai e ia ki roto nga tohunga ratou ko nga Riwaiti, a ka huihuia ratou ki te marae i te taha rawhiti,
5 And he saith to them, 'Hear me, O Levites, now, sanctify yourselves, and sanctify the house of Jehovah, God of your fathers, and bring out the impurity from the sanctuary,
A ka mea ia ki a ratou, Whakarongo mai, e nga Riwaiti, whakatapua koutou aianei, whakatapua hoki te whare o Ihowa, o te Atua o o koutou matua, maua atu hoki te mea poke i roto i te wahi tapu.
6 for our fathers have trespassed, and done that which is evil in the eyes of Jehovah our God, and forsake him, and turn round their faces from the tabernacle of Jehovah, and give the neck.
I he hoki o tatou matua, i mahi i te kino i te titiro a Ihowa, a to tatou Atua. Whakarerea ake ia e ratou, tahuri ke ana o ratou aroaro i te tapenakara o Ihowa; hurihia ake e ratou ko o ratou tuara.
7 'Also — they have shut the doors of the porch, and quench the lamps, and perfume they have not made, and burnt-offering have not caused to ascend in the sanctuary to the God of Israel,
Ko nga tatau ano o te whakamahau, i tutakina e ratou; tineia iho nga rama, kihai hoki he whakakakara i tahuna e ratou; a kahore he tahunga tinana i whakaekea i te wahi tapu ki te Atua o Iharaira.
8 and the wrath of Jehovah is on Judah and Jerusalem, and He giveth them for a trembling, for an astonishment, and for a hissing, as ye are seeing with your eyes.
Koia te riri o Ihowa i anga ai ki a Hura, ki Hiruharama, a tukua ana ratou e ia kia whiuwhiua, hei miharo me ta o koutou kanohi e kite nei.
9 And lo, fallen have our fathers by the sword, and our sons, and our daughters, and our wives [are] in captivity for this.
Nana, kua hinga nei o tatou matua i te hoari; ko te mea ano tenei i whakaraua ai a tatou tama, a tatou tamahine, a tatou wahine.
10 'Now — with my heart — to make a covenant before Jehovah, God of Israel, and the fierceness of His anger doth turn back from us.
Na ko ta toku ngakau tenei, kia whakaritea he kawenata ki a Ihowa, ki te Atua o Iharaira, kia tahuri atu ai i a tatou tona riri e mura nei.
11 My sons, be not now at rest, for on you hath Jehovah fixed to stand before Him, to serve Him, and to be to Him ministering and making perfume.'
E aku tama, kaua koutou e mangere: he mea whiriwhiri nei hoki koutou na Ihowa hei tu ki tona aroaro, hei mahi ki a ia, hei minita ki a ia, hei tahu whakakakara.
12 And the Levites rise — Mahath son of Amasai, and Joel son of Azariah, of the sons of the Kohathite; and of the sons of Merari: Kish son of Abdi, and Azariah son of Jehalelel; and of the Gershonite: Joah son of Zimmah, and Eden son of Joah;
Katahi ka whakatika nga Riwaiti, a Mahata tama a Amahai, a Hoera tama a Ataria, no nga tama a nga Kohati: a, o nga tama a Merari, ko Kihi tama a Apari, ko Ataria tama a Ieharereere: o nga Kerehoni hoki, ko Ioaha tama a Tima, ko Erene tama a Ioah a:
13 and of the sons of Elizaphan: Shimri, and Jeiel; and of the sons of Asaph: Zechariah and Mattaniah;
A, o nga tama a Eritapana, ko Himiri, ko Teiere: o nga tama a Ahapa, ko Hakaraia, ko Matania;
14 and of the sons of Heman: Jehiel and Shimei; and of the sons of Jeduthun: Shemaiah and Uzziel —
O nga tama a Hemana, ko Tehiere, ko Himei; o nga tama e Ierutunu, ko Hemaia, ko Utiere.
15 and they gather their brethren, and sanctify themselves, and come in, according to the command of the king in the matters of Jehovah, to cleanse the house of Jehovah,
Na huihuia ana e ratou o ratou tuakana, teina, kei te whakatapu ratou i a ratou, a haere ana ki roto ki ta te kingi i whakahau ai, ara ki ta Ihowa i ki ai, ki te pure i te whare o Ihowa.
16 and the priests come in to the inner part of the house of Jehovah to cleanse [it], and bring out all the uncleanness that they have found in the temple of Jehovah to the court of the house of Jehovah, and the Levites receive [it], to take [it] out to the brook Kidron without.
Na haere ana nga tohunga ki roto rawa i te whare o Ihowa ki te tahi i te poke, a whakaputaina ana e ratou ki waho nga mea poke katoa i kitea i roto i te temepara o Ihowa ki te marae o te whare o Ihowa. Na tangohia ana e nga Riwaiti, kawea ana ki waho ki te awa ki Kitirono.
17 And they begin on the first of the first month to sanctify, and on the eighth day of the month they have come to the porch of Jehovah, and they sanctify the house of Jehovah in eight days, and on the sixteenth day of the first month they have finished.
No te ra tuatahi o te marama tuatahi i timata ai ratou te whakatapu, a no te waru o nga ra o te marama i tae ai ratou ki te whakamahau o Ihowa. Na whakatapua ana e ratou te whare o Ihowa, e waru nga ra; a no te tekau ma ono o nga ra o te marama tuatahi i oti ai.
18 And they come in within unto Hezekiah the king, and say, 'We have cleansed all the house of Jehovah, and the altar of the burnt-offering, and all its vessels, and the table of the arrangement, and all its vessels,
Katahi ka haere ratou ki roto, kite kingi, ki a Hetekia, a ka mea, Kua tahia e matou te poke o te whare o Ihowa, o te aata tahunga tinana, o ona mea katoa, o te tepu taro aroaro, o ona mea katoa.
19 and all the vessels that king Ahaz cast away in his reign — in his trespass — we have prepared and sanctified, and lo, they [are] before the altar of Jehovah.'
Ko nga oko katoa hoki i akiritia atu e Kingi Ahata i tona kingitanga, i a ia i he ra, kua oti i a matou te whakapai, te whakatapu. Nana, ko aua mea ra kei te aronga o te aata a Ihowa.
20 And Hezekiah the king riseth early, and gathereth the heads of the city, and goeth up to the house of Jehovah;
Katahi ka maranga wawe a Kingi Hetekia i te ata, huihuia ana e ia nga rangatira o te pa, haere ana ia ki runga, ki te whare o Ihowa.
21 and they bring in seven bullocks, and seven rams, and seven lambs, and seven young he-goats, for a sin-offering for the kingdom, and for the sanctuary, and for Judah; and he saith to sons of Aaron, the priests, to cause [them] to ascend on the altar of Jehovah.
A ka kawea mai e ratou e whitu nga puru, e whitu nga hipi toa, e whitu nga reme, e whitu nga koati toa, hei whakahere hara mo te kingitanga, mo te wahi tapu, a mo Hura. Na whakahaua atu ana e ia kia whakaekea e nga tohunga, e nga tama a Arona ki runga ki te aata a Ihowa.
22 And they slaughter the oxen, and the priests receive the blood, and sprinkle on the altar; and they slaughter the rams, and sprinkle the blood on the altar; and they slaughter the lambs, and sprinkle the blood on the altar;
Heoi patua ana e ratou nga kau, a ka riro nga toto i nga tohunga, tauhiuhia atu ana e ratou ki te aata. I patua ano e ratou nga hipi toa, tauhiuhia atu ana nga toto ki te aata. Patua ana ano e ratou nga reme, a tauhiuhia ana nga toto ki te aata.
23 and they bring nigh the he-goats of the sin-offering before the king and the assembly, and they lay their hands upon them;
Na ka whakatataia mai e ratou nga koati toa hei whakahere hara i te aroaro o te kingi ratou ko te whakaminenga; pokia iho ana o ratou ringa ki runga ki a ratou.
24 and the priests slaughter them, and make a sin-offering with their blood on the altar, to make atonement for all Israel, for 'For all Israel,' said the king, '[is] the burnt-offering and the sin-offering.'
Na ka patua e nga tohunga, whakaherea ana o ratou toto mo nga hara ki runga ki te aata, hei whakamarie mo Iharaira katoa: na te kingi hoki i ki mo Iharaira katoa te tahunga tinana me te whakahere hara.
25 And he appointeth the Levites in the house of Jehovah with cymbals, with psalteries, and with harps, by the command of David, and of Gad, seer of the king, and of Nathan the prophet, for by the hand of Jehovah [is] the command, by the hand of His prophets;
I whakaturia ano e ia nga Riwaiti ki te whare o Ihowa, he himipora a ratou, he hatere, he hapa; ko ta Rawiri hoki ia i whakahau ai, ratou ko Kara matakite a te kingi, ko Natana poropiti: na Ihowa hoki te whakahau, ara na ana poropiti.
26 and the Levites stand with the instruments of David, and the priests with the trumpets.
Tu ana tera nga Riwaiti, me nga mea whakatangi a Rawiri, me nga tohunga ano, mau tetere ana.
27 And Hezekiah saith to cause the burnt-offering to ascend on the altar; and at the time the burnt-offering began — began the song of Jehovah, and the trumpets, even by the hands of the instruments of David king of Israel.
Na ka whakahau a Hetekia kia whakaekea te tahunga tinana ki runga ki te aata. Na i te wa i timata ai te tahunga tinana, ka timataia ano te waiata a Ihowa, me nga tetere, me nga mea whakatangi a Rawiri kingi o Iharaira.
28 And all the assembly are doing obeisance, and the singers singing, and the trumpeters blowing; the whole [is] till the completion of the burnt-offering.
Na koropiko katoa ana te whakaminenga, waiata ana nga kaiwaiata, whakatangihia ana nga tetere: i mahia katoa tenei a mutu noa te tahunga tinana.
29 And at the completion of the offering up bowed have the king and all those found with him, and do obeisance.
A, no te mutunga o te whakaeke, ka tuohu te kingi me ona hoa katoa i reira, a koropiko ana.
30 And Hezekiah the king saith, and the princes, to the Levites to give praise to Jehovah in the words of David, and of Asaph the seer, and they praise — unto joy, and they bow, and do obeisance.
I whakahau ano a Kingi Hetekia me nga rangatira ki nga Riwaiti kia whakamoemiti ki a Ihowa; hei nga kupu ano a Rawiri raua ko Ahapa matakite. Na kei te whakamoemiti ratou; me te koa; tuohu ana ratou, koropiko ana ano.
31 And Hezekiah answereth and saith, 'Now ye have filled your hand to Jehovah, come nigh, and bring in sacrifices and thank-offerings to the house of Jehovah;' and the assembly bring in sacrifices and thank-offerings, and every willing-hearted one — burnt-offerings.
Katahi a Hetekia ka oho, ka mea, Na kua whakatapua nei koutou ki a Ihowa, neke mai, kawea mai nga patunga tapu, me nga whakawhetai ki te whare o Ihowa. Na kei te kawe mai te whakaminenga i nga patunga tapu, i nga whakawhetai, a he tahunga tinana ano ta nga ngakau hihiko katoa.
32 And the number of the burnt-offerings that the assembly have brought in, is seventy oxen, a hundred rams, lambs two hundred; for a burnt-offering to Jehovah [are] all these.
Na, ko te maha o nga tahunga tinana i kawea nei e te whakaminenga, e whitu tekau kau, kotahi rau hipi toa, e rua rau reme. Ko enei katoa hei tahunga tinana ki a Ihowa.
33 And the sanctified things [are] oxen six hundred, and sheep three thousand.
Na, ko nga mea i whakatapua, e ono rau kau, e toru mano hipi.
34 Only, the priests have become few, and have not been able to strip the whole of the burnt-offerings, and their brethren the Levites strengthen them till the completion of the work, and till the priests sanctify themselves, for the Levites [are] more upright of heart to sanctify themselves than the priests.
Otiia he torutoru rawa nga tohunga, kihai i kaha ki te tihore i nga tahunga tinana katoa. Na ka pikitia ratou e o ratou teina, e nga Riwaiti, a oti noa te mahi, kia oti ra ano te whakatapu a nga tohunga i a ratou; engari hoki nga Riwaiti i nga t ohunga, i tika o ratou ngakau ki te whakatapu i a ratou.
35 And also, burnt-offerings [are] in abundance, with fat of the peace-offerings, and with oblations for the burnt-offering; and the service of the house of Jehovah is established,
A he tini nga tahunga tinana, me te ngako o nga whakahere mo te pai, me nga ringihanga ano mo nga tahunga tinana. Heoi kua oti te mahi o te whare o Ihowa te whakatika.
36 and rejoice doth Hezekiah and all the people, because of God's giving preparation to the people, for the thing hath been suddenly.
Na koa tonu a Hetekia ratou ko te iwi katoa, mo ta te Atua i whakarite ai ma te iwi; he mea oho tata hoki tenei.
