1 Kingi 9
1 A, ka oti i a Horomona te whare o Ihowa, me te whare o te kingi, me nga mea katoa i hiahia ai a Horomona, i pai ai kia mahia;
And it came to pass, when Solomon had made an end of building the house of Yahweh, and the house of the king, and everything that Solomon desired, which he was pleased to make,
2 Na ko te rua o nga putanga o Ihowa ki a Horomona, pera me tona putanga ki a ia ki Kipeono.
then appeared Yahweh unto Solomon, a second time, —as he appeared unto him, in Gibeon.
3 Na ka mea a Ihowa ki a ia, Kua rongo ahau i tau inoi, i tau karanga i karanga ai koe i toku aroaro; kua oti i ahau te whakatapu tenei whare kua hanga nei e koe, hei waihotanga iho mo toku ingoa a ake ake; ka tau ano oku kanohi, me toku ngakau, ki reira i nga ra katoa.
And Yahweh said unto him—I have heard thy prayer and thy supplication, wherewith thou hast made supplication before me, I have hallowed this house, which thou hast built, to put my Name there unto times age-abiding, —and mine eyes and my heart shall be there, continually:
4 Na, ko koe, ki te rite tau haere i toku aroaro ki te haere a tou papa, a Rawiri, a ka tapatahi, ka tika te ngakau, ka mahi koe i nga mea katoa i whakahau ai ahau ki a koe, ka pupuri i aku tikanga, i aku whakaritenga;
As for thee, therefore, if thou wilt walk before me, as David thy father walked, with a whole heart and with uprightness, to do according to all that I have commanded thee, —and, my statutes and my regulations, wilt keep,
5 Katahi ahau ka whakapumau i te torona o tou kingitanga ki a Iharaira a ake ake; ka pera me taku i korero ai ki tou papa, ki a Rawiri, i ahau i ki ra, E kore e whakakorea he tangata mau mo te torona o Iharaira.
then will I establish the throne of thy kingdom over Israel, unto times age-abiding, —as I promised unto David thy father, saying, There shall not be cut off to thee a man, from off the throne of Israel.
6 Otiia ki te anga koutou ko a koutou tama, ki te tahuri ke, a kahore e whai i ahau, e pupuri i aku whakahau, i aku tikanga, i hoatu e ahau ki to koutou aroaro, a ka haere, ka mahi ki nga atua ke, ka koropiko ki a ratou,
If ye, turn back, ye or your sons, from following me, and keep not my commandments, my statutes, which I have set before you, —but depart and serve other gods, and bow yourselves down to them,
7 Katahi ka hautopea atu e ahau a Iharaira i te mata o te whenua i hoatu e ahau ki a ratou; a koe tenei whare i whakatapua nei e ahau mo toku ingoa, ka akiritia atu e ahau i toku aroaro, a ka waiho a Iharaira hei whakatauki, hei taunutanga i roto i nga iwi katoa.
then will I cut off Israel, from the face of the soil, which I have given unto them, and, the house which I have hallowed for my Name, will I suffer to be carried away from before me, —and Israel shall become a byword and a mockery, among all the peoples;
8 Na, ahakoa te tiketike o te whare nei, ka miharo ia nga tangata katoa e haere ana na konei, ka whakahi, ka mea, Na te aha tenei mahi a Ihowa ki tenei whenua, ki tenei whare?
and, this house which had been renowned, shall be desolate, every one that passeth by it, shall be astonished and shall whistle, —and men shall say—For what cause, hath Yahweh done, thus, unto this land, and unto this house?
9 Na ka whakahoki ratou, Mo ratou i whakarere i a Ihowa, i to ratou Atua, i whakaputa mai nei i o ratou matua i te whenua o Ihipa, a ka tango ki nga atua ke, ka koropiko ki a ratou, ka mahi ki a ratou: no reira i homai ai e Ihowa tenei kino katoa k i runga ki a ratou.
And men will answer—Because they forsook Yahweh their God, who brought forth their fathers out of the land of Egypt, and laid hold of other gods, and bowed themselves down to them, and served them, for this cause, hath Yahweh brought in upon them all this ruin.
10 Na i te mutunga o nga tau e rua tekau, i te mea ka oti te hanga e Horomona nga whare e rua, te whare o Ihowa, me te whare o te kingi;
And it came to pass, at the end of twenty years, when Solomon had built the two houses, —the house of Yahweh, and the house of the king;
11 Na i homai e Hirama kingi o Taira he rakau hita ki a Horomona, he rakau kauri, he koura, ko ana katoa i pai ai; na hoatu ana e Kingi Horomona ki a Hirama e rua tekau nga pa i te whenua o Kariri.
Hiram king of Tyre having supplied Solomon with timber of cedar, and with timber of fir, and with gold, according to all his desire, that, then, King Solomon gave unto Hiram twenty cities, in the land of Galilee.
12 A ka haere ake a Hirama i Taira kia kite i nga pa i hoatu nei e Horomona ki a ia, kihai i rite ki tana titiro.
And Hiram came out from Tyre to view the cities which, Solomon, had given him, —and they were not pleasing in his eyes.
13 Ka mea ia, He aha enei pa i homai nei e koe ki ahau, e toku tuakana? Na huaina iho e ia ko te whenua o Kapuru, koia tenei inaianei.
So he said—What cities are these which thou hast given me, my brother? And he called them, Unfruitful Land, [as they are called] unto this day.
14 Na tukua atu ana e Hirama ki te kingi kotahi rau e rua tekau nga taranata koura.
Now Hiram had sent to the king, —a hundred and twenty talents of gold.
15 Na ko te putake tenei o te whakataka i whakataka ai e Horomona; hei hanga i te whare o Ihowa, i tona ake whare, i Miro, i te taiepa o Hiruharama, i Hatoro, i Mekiro, i Ketere.
Now, the following, is an account of the tax which King Solomon raised, for building the house of Yahweh and his own house, and Millo, and the wall of Jerusalem, —and Hazor and Megiddo, and Gezer.
16 I haere mai hoki a Parao kingi o Ihipa, a horo ana a Ketere i a ia, tahuna ana e ia ki te ahi, patua iho hoki nga Kanaani e noho ana i te pa, a homai ana hei kaipakuha ki tana tamahine, ki te wahine a Horomona.
Pharaoh king of Egypt, had gone up and captured Gezer, and burned it with fire, the Canaanites also who were dwelling in the city, had he slain, —and had given it as a dowry, to his daughter, wife of Solomon.
17 Na hanga ana e Horomona a Ketere me Petehorono ki raro,
So then Solomon built Gezer, and Beth-horon, the nether,
18 Me Paarata, me Taramoro i te koraha, i taua whenua,
and Baalath and Tadmor in the wilderness, in the land;
19 Me nga pa taonga katoa o Horomona, me nga pa mo nga hariata, me nga pa mo nga kaieke hoiho, me ta Horomona i hiahia ai kia hanga ki Hiruharama, ki Repanona, ki te whenua katoa hoki o tona kingitanga.
also all the store cities, which Solomon had, and the cities for chariots, and the cities for horsemen, —and the desire of Solomon that he was pleased to build in Jerusalem, and in Lebanon, and in all the land that he ruled over.
20 Ko nga morehu katoa o nga Amori, o nga Hiti, o nga Perihi, o nga Hiwi, o nga Iepuhi ehara nei i nga tama a Iharaira;
All the people that were left, of the Amorites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Hivites and the Jebusites, who were, not of the sons of Israel;
21 Ko a ratou tamariki i mahue i muri i a ratou i te whenua, kihai nei i taea e nga tama a Iharaira te huna rawa, na whakatakohatia ana ratou e Horomona, he mahi te takoha, a tae noa ki tenei ra.
their sons, who were left after them in the land, whom the sons of Israel were not able to devote to destruction, Solomon levied them for a toiling labour-band [which remaineth] unto this day.
22 Ko nga tama ia a Iharaira, kihai i meinga e Horomona hei kaimahi; ko ratou hoki hei tangata whawhai, hei tangata mana, hei rangatira mana, hei kaiwhakahauhau mana, hei rangatira ano mo ana hariata, mo ana kaieke hoiho.
But, of the sons of Israel, Solomon devoted none to bond-service, —but, they, were men of war, and his servants, and his generals, and his heroes, and captains of his chariots, and his horsemen.
23 Ko nga rangatira enei o nga kaitohutohu, o nga rangatira o te mahi o Horomona, e rima rau e rima tekau, he rangatira, mo nga kaimahi i te mahi.
These, were the chiefs of the officers, who were over the work, for Solomon, five hundred and fifty, —who ruled over the people that wrought in the work.
24 Na, kua riro atu te tamahine a Parao i te pa o Rawiri ki runga, ki te whare i hanga e ia mona: katahi a Miro ka hanga e ia.
Scarcely had Pharaoh’s daughter come up out of the city of David, into her own house, which he had built for her, when he built Millo.
25 Na i te tau kotahi, e toru nga tapaenga a Horomona i nga tahunga tinana, i nga whakahere mo te pai ki runga ki te aata i hanga e ia ma Ihowa, i tahuna ano e ia te whakakakara ki tera i te aroaro o Ihowa. Heoi kua oti te whare i a ia.
And Solomon used to offer, three times a year, ascending-sacrifices and peace-offerings, upon the altar which he had built unto Yahweh, and to offer incense at the altar which was before Yahweh, —thus Solomon gave completeness unto the house.
26 Na he maha nga kaipuke i hanga e Kingi Horomona ki Ehiono Kepere, ki tera i Eroto i te taha o te Moana Whero, i te whenua o Eroma.
A fleet also, did King Solomon build in Ezion-geber, which is beside Eloth on the shore of the Red Sea, in the land of Edom.
27 A tonoa ana e Hirama ana tangata ki runga ki nga kaipuke, he kaimahi kaipuke, he mohio ki te moana, hei hoa mo nga tangata a Horomona.
And Hiram sent in the fleet his servants, seamen, having knowledge of the sea, —with the servants of Solomon;
28 Na ka rere ratou ki Opira, a utaina ana he koura i reira, e wha rau e rua tekau taranata, a kawea ana ki a Kingi Horomona.
and they came to Ophir, and fetched from thence, gold, four hundred and twenty talents, —and brought it to King Solomon.
