< 1 Kingi 13 >
1 Na ka tae mai tetahi tangata a te Atua i Hura ki Peteere, he mea ki na Ihowa: a i te tu a Ieropoama i te taha o te aata, e tahu whakakakara ana.
And behold, there came a man of God from Judah, by the word of Jehovah, to Bethel; and Jeroboam stood by the altar to burn incense.
2 Na karangatia ana e ia ta Ihowa kupu ki te aata; i mea ia, E te aata na, e te aata na, ko ta Ihowa kupu tenei, Nana, tera e whanau tetahi tamaiti o te whare o Rawiri, ko Hohia tona ingoa, a ka tapaea e ia ki runga ki a koe nga tohunga o nga wahi tiketike e tahu whakakakara nei ki runga ki a koe; a ka tahuna he wheua tangata ki runga ki a koe.
And he cried against the altar by the word of Jehovah, and said, O altar, altar! thus saith Jehovah: Behold, a child shall be born unto the house of David, Josiah by name; and upon thee shall he sacrifice the priests of the high places that burn incense upon thee, and men's bones shall be burned upon thee.
3 I hoatu ano e ia he tohu i taua ra, i mea, Ko te tohu tenei i korerotia e Ihowa, Nana, ka koara te aata, a ka maringi nga pungarehu o runga.
And he gave a sign the same day, saying, This is the sign that Jehovah hath spoken: Behold, the altar shall be rent, and the ashes that are upon it shall be poured out.
4 A, no te rongonga o te kingi i te kupu a te tangata a te Atua i karangatia nei e ia ki te aata i Peteere, ka totoro te ringa o Ieropoama i te aata ka mea ia, Hopukia ia. Na memenge ake tona ringa i totoro nei ki a ia, kihai hoki i taea te whakaho ki mai ki a ia.
And it came to pass when the king heard the word of the man of God, which he cried against the altar in Bethel, that Jeroboam stretched forth his hand from the altar, saying, Lay hold on him. And his hand which he stretched out against him dried up, so that he could not bring it back again to him.
5 Na kua koara te aata; maringi ake nga pungarehu i runga i te aata, i rite tonu ki te tohu i homai e te tangata a te Atua, ki ta Ihowa i korero ai.
And the altar was rent, and the ashes poured out from the altar, according to the sign that the man of God had given by the word of Jehovah.
6 Na ka oho te kingi, ka mea ki te tangata a te Atua, Tena ra, karanga atu ki te aroaro o Ihowa, o tou Atua, ka inoi moku, kia whakahokia mai toku ringa ki ahau. Na ka karanga te tangata a te Atua ki te aroaro o Ihowa, a ka whakahokia te ringa o te kingi ki a ia, ka pera me to mua.
And the king answered and said to the man of God, Intreat now Jehovah thy God, and pray for me, that my hand may be restored to me again. And the man of God intreated Jehovah, and the king's hand was restored to him again, and became as before.
7 Na ka mea te kingi ki te tangata a te Atua, Haere mai taua ki te whare ki tetahi oranga mou, kia hoatu hoki e ahau tetahi mea ki a koe.
And the king said to the man of God, Come home with me, and refresh thyself, and I will give thee a present.
8 Na ka mea te tangata a te Atua ki te kingi, Ahakoa i homai e koe ko te hawhe o tou whare, e kore ahau e haere taua, e kore ano e kai taro, e inu wai ki tenei wahi.
And the man of God said to the king, If thou wilt give me half thy house, I will not go in with thee, neither will I eat bread nor drink water in this place;
9 Ko te ako hoki tenei ki ahau, ko ta Ihowa hoki i korero ai; i mea ai, Kei kai taro, kei inu wai; kaua ano e hoki mai na te ara e haere atu ai koe.
for so was it charged me by the word of Jehovah, saying, Thou shalt eat no bread, nor drink water, nor return by the way that thou shalt go.
10 Na haere ana ia he ara ke, kihai i hoki na te ara i haere mai nei ia ki Peteere.
So he went another way, and returned not by the way that he had come to Bethel.
11 Na i Peteere tetahi poropiti e noho ana, he koroheke; a, ka haere mai tetahi o ana tama, ka korerotia ki a ia nga mea katoa i mea ai te tangata a te Atua i taua ra ki Peteere; i korerotia ano e ratou ki to ratou papa nga kupu i korero ai ia ki t e kingi.
Now there dwelt a certain old prophet in Bethel; and his sons came and told him all the works that the man of God had done that day in Bethel; the words that he had spoken to the king, them they told also to their father.
12 Na ka mea to ratou papa ki a ratou, Tena koa te ara i haere ai ia? I kite hoki ana tama i te ara i haere atu ai te tangata a te Atua i haere mai nei i Hura.
And their father said to them, Which way went he? for his sons had seen which way the man of God went, who came from Judah.
13 Na ka mea ia ki ana tama, Whakanohoia taku kaihe. Na whakanohoia ana tana kaihe e ratou, a eke ana ia ki runga.
And he said to his sons, Saddle me the ass. So they saddled him the ass; and he rode thereon,
14 Na whaia ana e ia te tangata a te Atua, mau rawa atu e noho ana i raro i tetahi oki; a ka mea ki a ia, Ko koe ianei te tangata a te Atua i haere mai nei i Hura? Ano ra ko tera, Ae, ko ahau.
and went after the man of God, and found him sitting under a terebinth; and he said to him, Art thou the man of God that camest from Judah? And he said, I am.
15 Katahi ka mea ia ki a ia, Haere mai taua ki te whare ki te kai taro mau.
And he said to him, Come home with me, and eat bread.
16 Ano ra ko ia, E kore e ahei kia hoki taua, kia haere atua; e kore ano taua e kai taro, e inu wai ranei ki tenei wahi.
And he said, I cannot return with thee, nor go in with thee; neither will I eat bread nor drink water with thee in this place.
17 Kua korerotia mai hoki ta Ihowa kupu ki ahau, Kei kai taro, kei inu wai ki reira, kei anga, kei haere mai na te ara ka haere atu nei koe.
For it was said to me by the word of Jehovah, Thou shalt eat no bread nor drink water there, nor turn again to go by the way that thou wentest.
18 Na ka mea tera ki a ia, He poropiti ano ahau, he pena me koe; kua korerotia mai ano ki ahau te kupu a Ihowa e tetahi anahera: i ki mai ia, Whakahokia ia ki a koe, ki tou whare ki te kai taro mana, ki te inu wai. He teka ia nana ki a ia.
And he said to him, I am a prophet also as thou art; and an angel spoke to me by the word of Jehovah saying, Bring him back with thee into thy house, that he may eat bread and drink water. He lied unto him.
19 Heoi hoki ana ia i a ia, a kai taro ana i roto i tona whare, inu wai ana.
Then he went back with him, and ate bread in his house, and drank water.
20 Na, i a raua e noho ana ki te tepu, ko te putanga mai o te kupu a Ihowa ki te poropiti nana nei ia i whakahoki:
And it came to pass as they sat at the table, that the word of Jehovah came to the prophet that brought him back;
21 A ka karanga ia ki te tangata a te Atua i haere mai nei i Hura, ka mea, Ko ta Ihowa kupu tenei, Na, kua tutu nei koe ki te mangai o Ihowa, a kahore i mau i a koe te ako i ako ai a Ihowa, tou Atua ki a koe,
and he cried to the man of God that came from Judah, saying, Thus saith Jehovah: Forasmuch as thou hast disobeyed the word of Jehovah, and hast not kept the commandment that Jehovah thy God commanded thee,
22 Heoi hoki mai ana koe, kai taro ana, inu wai ana ki te wahi i korero ai ia ki a koe, Kei kai taro, kei inu wai; e kore e tae tou tinana ki te urupa o ou matua.
but camest back, and hast eaten bread and drunk water in the place of which he said to thee, Eat no bread and drink no water; thy carcase shall not come to the sepulchre of thy fathers.
23 A ka mutu tana kai taro, ka mutu tana inu, na ka whakanohoia e ia te kaihe mona, ara mo te poropiti i whakahokia mai nei e ia.
And it came to pass, after he had eaten bread, and after he had drunk, that he saddled the ass for him, for the prophet that he had brought back;
24 Na, i tona haerenga, ka tutaki tetahi raiona ki a ia, ka whakamate i a ia: a ko tona tinana i akiritia ki te ara, me te kaihe ki tona taha tu ai; ko te raiona ano hoki i tu i te taha o te tinana.
and he departed. And a lion met him by the way and slew him; and his corpse was cast in the way, and the ass stood by it; the lion also stood by the corpse.
25 Na, ka haere mai nga tangata, ka kite i te tinana i akiritia ra ki te ara, me te raiona e tu ana i te taha o te tinana: ka haere, ka korero i taua mea i te pa i noho ai te poropiti koroheke.
And behold, men passed by, and saw the corpse cast in the way and the lion standing by the corpse; and they came and told it in the city where the old prophet dwelt.
26 A, no te rongonga o taua poropiti, nana nei ia i whakahoki mai i te ara, ka mea ia, Ko te tangata tena a te Atua kihai nei i whakarongo ki te mangai o Ihowa, a hoatu ana ia e Ihowa ki te raiona, a haea iho e ia, whakamatea iho; ko ta Ihowa kupu hoki tena i korero ai ki a ia.
And the prophet that brought him back from the way heard [of it] and said, It is the man of God who was disobedient to the word of Jehovah; therefore Jehovah has delivered him to the lion, which has torn him and slain him, according to the word of Jehovah which he spoke to him.
27 Na ka korero ia ki ana tama, ka mea, Whakanohoia taku kaihe, a whakanohoia ana e ratou.
And he spoke to his sons saying, Saddle me the ass; and they saddled it.
28 Na haere ana ia, a rokohanga atu ko te tinana, he mea akiri ki te ara, me te kaihe raua ko te raiona e tu ana i te taha o te tinana; kihai te tinana i kainga e te raiona, kihai ano te kaihe i haea.
And he went and found his corpse cast in the way, and the ass and the lion standing by the corpse: the lion had not eaten the corpse, nor torn the ass.
29 Na hapainga ana te tinana o te tangata a te Atua e te poropiti, a whakatakotoria ana ki runga ki te kaihe, whakahokia ana; haere ana ki te pa o te poropiti koroheke ki te tangi, ki te tanu i a ia.
And the prophet took up the corpse of the man of God, and laid it upon the ass, and brought it back; and the old prophet came into the city, to mourn and to bury him.
30 Na whakatakotoria ana e ia tona tinana ki roto ki tona ake urupa; a ko ta ratou tangi mona, Aue, e toku teina.
And he laid his corpse in his own sepulchre; and they mourned over him [saying], Alas, my brother!
31 A, ka mutu tana tanu i a ia, ka korero ia ki ana tama, ka mea, Kia mate ahau, tanumia ahau ki roto ki te urupa i tanumia ai te tangata a te Atua; hei te taha o ona wheua whakatakoto ai i oku wheua.
And it came to pass after he had buried him, that he spoke to his sons saying, When I am dead, bury me in the sepulchre in which the man of God is buried; lay my bones beside his bones.
32 No te mea tera e tino rite ta Ihowa korero i karangatia e ia mo tenei aata i Peteere, mo nga whare katoa hoki o nga wahi tiketike i nga pa o Hamaria.
For the word that he cried by the word of Jehovah against the altar in Bethel, and against all the houses of the high places that are in the cities of Samaria, shall certainly come to pass.
33 I muri i tenei kihai a Ieropoama i tahuri i tona ara kino; engari i tahuri ano ki te mea tohunga no roto noa iho i te iwi katoa mo nga wahi tiketike: ahakoa ko wai i hiahia, kua whakatohungatia e ia, kia whai tohunga ai mo nga wahi tiketike.
After this thing Jeroboam turned not from his evil way, but made again from all classes of the people priests of the high places: whosoever would, he consecrated him, and he became [one] of the priests of the high places.
34 Na meinga ana tenei mea hei hara mo te whare o Ieropoama, hei mea e huna ai, e whakamotitia rawatia ai i te mata o te whenua.
And by this thing there was sin on the house of Jeroboam, even to cut it off and to destroy it from off the face of the earth.
