< 1 Kingi 14 >
1 I taua wa ka turorotia a Apia tama a Ieropoama.
At that time Abijah the son of Jeroboam fell sick.
2 Na ka mea a Ieropoama ki tana wahine, Tena, whakatika, whakareretia ketia tou ahua, kei mohiotia ko te wahine koe a Ieropoama; ka haere ki Hiro, kei reira a Ahia poropiti, nana nei te ki ko ahau hei kingi mo tenei iwi.
And Jeroboam said to his wife: 'Arise, I pray thee, and disguise thyself, that thou be not known to be the wife of Jeroboam; and get thee to Shiloh; behold, there is Ahijah the prophet, who spoke concerning me that I should be king over this people.
3 A ka mau koe i tou ringa kia tekau nga taro, me etahi keke, me tetahi pounamu honi, ka haere ki a ia: mana e korero ki a koe, ka pehea ranei te tamaiti.
And take with thee ten loaves, and biscuits, and a cruse of honey, and go to him; he will tell thee what shall become of the child.'
4 Na, pera tonu te wahine a Ieropoama, whakatika ana, haere ana ki Hiro, tae tonu atu ki te whare o Ahia. Na kihai i ahei i a Ahia te titiro, kua maro hoki ona kanohi, kua koroheketia hoki ia.
And Jeroboam's wife did so, and arose, and went to Shiloh, and came to the house of Ahijah. Now Ahijah could not see; for his eyes were set by reason of his age.
5 Na ka mea a Ihowa ki a Ahia, Nana, ko te wahine tenei a Ieropoama te haere mai nei ki te rapu kupu i a koe mo tana tama; e mate ana hoki: kia penei tau ki atu ki a ia; no te mea, ina tae mai ia, tera ia e whakaahua i a ia ki tetahi wahine ke.
Now the LORD had said unto Ahijah: 'Behold, the wife of Jeroboam cometh to inquire of thee concerning her son; for he is sick; thus and thus shalt thou say unto her; for it will be, when she cometh in, that she will feign herself to be another woman.'
6 Heoi, i te rongonga o Ahia i te haruru o ona waewae, i a ia i tomo mai ai i te kuwaha, ka mea ia, Tomo mai, e te wahine a Ieropoama: he aha koe i whakaahua ke ai i a koe? he pakeke hoki nga korero i tonoa mai ai ahau ki a koe.
And it was so, when Ahijah heard the sound of her feet, as she came in at the door, that he said: 'Come in, thou wife of Jeroboam; why feignest thou thyself to be another? for I am sent to thee with heavy tidings.
7 Haere, korero ki a Ieropoama, Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, a te Atua o Iharaira, Na kua whakanuia na koe e ahau i roto i te iwi, kua meinga hei rangatira mo taku iwi, mo Iharaira,
Go, tell Jeroboam: Thus saith the LORD, the God of Israel: Forasmuch as I exalted thee from among the people, and made thee prince over My people Israel,
8 A haea ana e ahau te kingitanga i te whare o Rawiri, hoatu ana ki a koe: heoi kihai koe i rite ki taku pononga, ki a Rawiri, i pupuri nei i aku whakahau, a whakapaua ana tona ngakau ki te whai i ahau, a ko te tika anake hei mahi mana ki toku aroa ro;
and rent the kingdom away from the house of David, and gave it thee; and yet thou hast not been as My servant David, who kept My commandments, and who followed Me with all his heart, to do that only which was right in Mine eyes;
9 Otiia hira ake te kino o au mahi i a te katoa i mua atu i a koe: i haere hoki koe, i hanga i etahi atua ke mau, me nga whakapakoko whakarewa, hei whakapataritari i ahau, a whiua ana ahau e koe ki muri i a koe, ki tou tuara.
but hast done evil above all that were before thee, and hast gone and made thee other gods, and molten images, to provoke Me, and hast cast Me behind thy back;
10 Na reira ka hoatu e ahau he kino ki runga i te whare o Ieropoama, a ka hautopea atu e ahau nga tamariki tane katoa i a Ieropoama, te hunga o Iharaira i tutakina ki roto, i mahue ranei ki waho, a ka tahia rawatia atu te whare o Ieropoama, ka pera tia me te paru e tahia ana e te tangata, a poto noa.
therefore, behold, I will bring evil upon the house of Jeroboam, and will cut off from Jeroboam every man-child, and him that is shut up and him that is left at large in Israel, and will utterly sweep away the house of Jeroboam, as a man sweepeth away dung, till it be all gone.
11 Ko te hunga o Ieropoama e mate ki te pa ma nga kuri e kai; ko nga mea hoki e mate ki te parae ma nga manu o te rangi e kai; he mea ki mai hoki tenei na Ihowa.
Him that dieth of Jeroboam in the city shall the dogs eat; and him that dieth in the field shall the fowls of the air eat; for the LORD hath spoken it.
12 Na reira whakatika koe, haere ki tou whare: a kia tomo ou waewae ki te pa, ka mate te tamaiti.
Arise thou therefore, get thee to thy house; and when thy feet enter into the city, the child shall die.
13 A ma Iharaira katoa ia e tangi, ma ratou ia e tanu; ko ia anake hoki o Ieropoama e tae ki te urupa, no te mea nona tetahi mea pai ki a Ihowa, ki te Atua o Iharaira i kitea i roto i te whare o Ieropoama.
And all Israel shall make lamentation for him, and bury him; for he only of Jeroboam shall come to the grave; because in him there is found some good thing toward the LORD, the God of Israel, in the house of Jeroboam.
14 Ka ara ano hoki i a Ihowa he kingi mana mo Iharaira, hei hautope i te whare o Ieropoama, i taua ra: he aha ra? aianei nei ano.
Moreover the LORD will raise Him up a king over Israel, who shall cut off the house of Jeroboam that day. But what is it even then?
15 Ka patua hoki a Iharaira e Ihowa, ka peratia me te kakaho e whakangaueuetia ana i roto i te wai, a ka hutia atu a Iharaira i tenei whenua pai i hoatu nei e ia ki o ratou matua; a ka titaria ki tawahi o te awa; mo ratou i hanga i a ratou Aherimi hei whakapataritari i a Ihowa.
for the LORD will smite Israel, as a reed is shaken in the water; and He will root up Israel out of this good land, which He gave to their fathers, and will scatter them beyond the River; because they have made their Asherim, provoking the LORD.
16 Na ka tukua atu a Iharaira e ia mo nga hara o Ieropoama i hara nei ia, i hara ai hoki a Iharaira.
And He will give Israel up because of the sins of Jeroboam, which he hath sinned, and wherewith he hath made Israel to sin.'
17 Na whakatika ana te wahine a Ieropoama, haere ana, kua tae ki Tirita: a, tae kau ia ki te paepae o te whare, ka mate te tamaiti.
And Jeroboam's wife arose, and departed, and came to Tirzah; and as she came to the threshold of the house, the child died.
18 Na tanumia ana ia e Iharaira katoa, a tangihia iho; ko ta Ihowa kupu tera i korero ai, ara ta tana pononga, ta Ahia poropiti.
And all Israel buried him, and made lamentation for him; according to the word of the LORD, which He spoke by the hand of His servant Ahijah the prophet.
19 Na, ko era meatanga a Ieropoama, ko ana whawhai, ko tona kingitanga, koia tena e mau na i te pukapuka o nga ra o nga kingi o Iharaira.
And the rest of the acts of Jeroboam, how he warred, and how he reigned, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.
20 Na, ko nga ra i kingi ai a Ieropoama, e rua tekau ma rua tau, a moe ana ia ki ona matua, a ko tana tama, ko Natapa te kingi i muri i a ia.
And the days which Jeroboam reigned were two and twenty years; and he slept with his fathers, and Nadab his son reigned in his stead.
21 Na ko Rehopoama tama a Horomona te kingi o Hura. E wha tekau ma tahi nga tau o Rehopoama i tona meatanga hei kingi; a kotahi tekau ma whitu ona tau i kingi ai ki Hiruharama, ki te pa i whiriwhiri e Ihowa i roto i nga iwi katoa o Iharaira hei wai hotanga iho mo tona ingoa. Ko te ingoa hoki o tona whaea ko Naama, he Amoni.
And Rehoboam the son of Solomon reigned in Judah. Rehoboam was forty and one years old when he began to reign, and he reigned seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city which the LORD had chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, to put His name there; and his mother's name was Naamah the Ammonitess.
22 Na ka kino te mahi a Hura ki te titiro a Ihowa, a whakapataritaritia ana ia e ratou ki o ratou hara i hara ai ratou, a hae iho ia; nui atu hoki i a o ratou matua katoa i mea ai.
And Judah did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD; and they moved Him to jealousy with their sins which they committed, above all that their fathers had done.
23 I hanga hoki e ratou etahi wahi tiketike ma ratou, me etahi pou, me etahi Aherimi, ki nga puke teitei katoa, ki raro hoki i nga rakau kouru nui katoa.
For they also built them high places, and pillars, and Asherim, on every high hill, and under every leafy tree;
24 I taua whenua ano etahi e whakahoroma ana, e mahi ana i nga mea whakarihariha katoa a nga tauiwi i peia nei e Ihowa i te aroaro o nga tama a Iharaira.
and there were also sodomites in the land; they did according to all the abominations of the nations which the LORD drove out before the children of Israel.
25 Na i te rima o nga tau o Kingi Rehopoama ka tae mai a Hihaka kingi o Ihipa ka whakapaea a Hiruharama:
And it came to pass in the fifth year of king Rehoboam, that Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem;
26 A taria atu ana e ia nga taonga o te whare o Ihowa, me nga taonga o te whare o te kingi; i mauria katoatia atu e ia: a i mauria atu hoki e ia nga pukupuku koura katoa i hanga e Horomona.
and he took away the treasures of the house of the LORD, and the treasures of the king's house; he even took away all; and he took away all the shields of gold which Solomon had made.
27 Na hanga ana e Kingi Rehopoama etahi pukupuku parahi hei whakakapi mo era, a tukua ana e ia ki nga ringa o nga rangatira o nga kaitiaki i tiaki nei i te tatau o te whare o te kingi.
And king Rehoboam made in their stead shields of brass, and committed them to the hands of the captains of the guard, who kept the door of the king's house.
28 A i o te kingi haerenga ki te whare o Ihowa, ka maua aua mea e nga kaitiaki, ka whakahokia ano e ratou ki te whare o nga kaitiaki.
And it was so, that as oft as the king went into the house of the LORD, the guard bore them, and brought them back into the guard-chamber.
29 Na, ko era atu meatanga a Rehopoama me ana mahi katoa, kahore ianei i tuhituhia ki te pukapuka o nga meatanga o nga ra o nga kingi o Hura?
Now the rest of the acts of Rehoboam, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
30 A he whawhai tonu ta Rehopoama raua ko Ieropoama ki a raua i o raua ra katoa.
And there was war between Rehoboam and Jeroboam continually.
31 Na ka moe a Rehopoama ki ona matua, a tanumia iho ki ona matua ki te pa o Rawiri: a ko te ingoa hoki o tona whaea ko Naama, he Amoni. A ko Apiama, ko tana tama te kingi i muri i a ia.
And Rehoboam slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David; and his mother's name was Naamah the Ammonitess. And Abijam his son reigned in his stead.
