1 Whakapapa 14
1 Na ka tonoa etahi karere e Hirama kingi o Taira ki a Rawiri, me etahi rakau, he hita, me nga kaimahi kohatu, me nga kaimahi rakau, hei hanga whare mona.
And Hiram king of Tyre sent messengers unto David, and timber of cedars, with masons and artificers, to build for him a house.
2 Na ka mohio a Rawiri kua whakapumautia ia e Ihowa hei kingi mo Iharaira; kua whakanuia hoki tona rangatiratanga, he whakaaro ki tana iwi, ki a Iharaira.
So David perceived, that Yahweh, had confirmed him, as king over Israel, —that his kingship was exalted, for the sake of his people Israel.
3 Na ka tangohia ano e Rawiri he wahine mana ki Hiruharama; a ka whanau ano etahi atu tama, etahi atu tamahine ma Rawiri.
And David took more wives, in Jerusalem, —and David begat more sons and daughters.
4 A ko nga ingoa enei o ana i whanau ki Hiruharama; ko Hamua, ko Hopapa, ko Natana, ko Horomona;
Now, these, are the names of them who were born, whom he had in Jerusalem, —Shammua and Shobab, Nathan, and Solomon;
5 Ko Ipihara, ko Erihua, ko Ereparete;
and Ibhar and Elishua, and Elpelet;
6 Ko Noka, ko Nepeke, ko Iapia;
and Nogah and Nepheg, and Japhia;
7 Ko Erihama, ko Peeriara, ko Eriparete.
and Elishama and Beeliada, and Eliphelet.
8 A, no te rongonga o nga Pirihitini kua oti a Rawiri te whakawahi hei kingi mo Iharaira katoa, ka haere nga Pirihitini katoa ki te rapu i a Rawiri. A ka rongo a Rawiri, a ka puta ia ki te tu i a ratou.
And, when the Philistines heard that David had been anointed king over all Israel, all the Philistines came up to seek to secure David, —and David, hearing, went out against them.
9 Na, tera nga Pirihitini kua haere mai, a kua takahi i te raorao o Repaima.
Now, the Philistines, had come and spread themselves out, in the vale of Rephaim.
10 Na ka ui a Rawiri ki te Atua, ka mea, Me haere ranei ahau ki nga Pirihitini? E homai ranei ratou e koe ki toku ringa? Na ka mea a Ihowa ki a ia, Haere; ka hoatu hoki ratou e ahau ki tou ringa.
Then David asked of God, saying, Shall I go up against the Philistines? and wilt thou deliver them into my hand? And Yahweh said to him, Go up, and I will deliver them into thy hand.
11 Heoi kua tae mai ratou ki Paaraperatimi; patua iho ratou i reira e Rawiri. Na ka mea a Rawiri, Pakaru ana i te Atua oku hoariri, he mea na toku ringa; koia ano kei te pakaruhanga wai. Na reira i huaina ai te ingoa o taua wahi ko Paaraperatimi.
So they came up in Baal-perazim, and David smote them there, and David said, God hath broken forth against mine enemies by my hand, like the breaking forth of waters, —For this cause, called they the name of that place, Baal-perazim.
12 A mahue ana i a ratou o ratou atua ki reira; na ka whakahau a Rawiri, a tahuna ana ki te ahi.
And they left their gods there, —and David gave the word, and they were burned up in fire.
13 Na ka takahia ano e nga Pirihitini te raorao.
And the Philistines yet again spread themselves out in the vale.
14 A ka ui ano a Rawiri ki te Atua, a ka mea te Atua ki a ia, Kaua e haere ki te wahi i a ratou: me tahuri i a ratou, ka awhio haere ki a ratou, ka whakaeke i a ratou i te ritenga o nga maperi.
So David, asked again, of God, and God said to him, Thou shalt not go up after them, —get thee round, away from them, so shalt thou come in upon them, over against the mulberry-trees;
15 A, ka rangona e koe te tapuwae haruru i runga i nga maperi, ko reira koe puta ai ki te whawhai; no te mea kua riro te Atua ki mua i a koe ki te patu i te ope o nga Pirihitini.
and it shall be, when thou hearest a sound of marching in the tops of the mulberry-trees, then, shalt thou go forth into the battle, —for God will have gone forth before thee, to smite the host of the Philistines.
16 Na peratia ana e Rawiri me ta te Atua i whakahau ai ki a ia; a patua iho e ratou te ope o nga Pirihitini i Kipeono, a tae noa ki Katere.
So David did as God commanded him, —and they smote the host of the Philistines, from Gibeon even unto Gezer.
17 Na kua paku te ingoa o Rawiri ki nga whenua katoa; a ka mea a Ihowa i te wehi ki a ia kia pa ki nga iwi katoa.
And the name of David went forth, throughout all the lands, —and, Yahweh, put the dread of him upon all the nations.
