2 Whakapapa 31
1 Na, i te otinga o tenei katoa, ka haere atu a Iharaira katoa i reira ki nga pa o Hura, a pakarua rikirikitia ana e ratou nga pou karakiatanga, tuaina ana nga Aherimi, whakahoroa ana nga wahi tiketike me nga aata puta noa i Hura, i Pineamine, i Ep araima, i Manahi a poto noa. Na hoki ana nga tama katoa a Iharaira ki tona kainga, ki tona kainga, ki o ratou pa.
Now, when all this was finished, all Israel who were present went forth unto the cities of Judah, and brake in pieces the pillars—and cut down the Sacred Stems—and threw down the high places and the altars, out of all Judah and Benjamin—and throughout Ephraim and Manasseh, until they had made an end, —then all the sons of Israel returned every man to his own possession, unto their own cities.
2 I whakaritea ano e Hetekia nga wehenga o nga tohunga ratou ko nga Riwaiti, ara o ratou wehenga, mo te mahi a tenei, a tenei, ko nga tohunga ratou ko nga riwaiti ki nga tahunga tinana, ki nga whakahere mo te pai, hei minita, hei whakawhetai, hei w hakamoemiti i nga kuwaha o nga nohoanga o Ihowa.
And Hezekiah appointed the courses of the priests, and the Levites, over their courses, every man according to the requirements of his service, both priests and Levites, for ascending-sacrifice and for peace-offerings, —to be in attendance and to give thanks and to offer praise, in the gates of the camps of Yahweh;
3 I whakaritea ano e ia ta te kingi wahi i roto i ona taonga mo nga tahunga tinana, ara mo nga tahunga tinana o te ata, o te ahiahi, mo nga tahunga tinana mo nga hapati, mo nga kowhititanga marama, a mo nga hakari i whakaritea; mo nga mea i tuhituh ia ki te ture a Ihowa.
also the portion of the king out of his own substance, for the ascending-sacrifices, —[even] for the ascending-sacrifices of the morning and of the evening, and the ascending-sacrifices for the sabbaths, and for the new moons and for the appointed feasts, —as written in the law of Yahweh.
4 I mea ano ia ki te iwi, ki nga tangata o Hiruharama, kia homai te wahi ma nga tohunga ratou ko nga Riwaiti, kia tuku ai ratou i a ratou ki te ture a Ihowa.
And he bade the people who were dwelling in Jerusalem give the portion of the priests and the Levites, —to the end they might persevere in the law of Yahweh.
5 Puaki kau te kupu, ka kawea nuitia mai e nga tama a Iharaira nga matamaua o te witi, o te waina, o te hinu, o te honi, o nga hua katoa o te mara; tona nui hoki o te whakatekau o nga mea katoa i kawea mai e ratou.
And, as soon as the thing spread abroad, the sons of Israel caused to abound the firstfruit of corn, new wine, and oil, and honey, and all the increase of the field, -yea, the tithe of all—in abundance, brought they in.
6 Na, ko nga tama a Iharaira raua ko Hura e noho ana i nga pa o Hura, i kawea mai e ratou te whakatekau o nga kau, o nga hipi, me te whakatekau o nga mea tapu i whakatapua nei ma Ihowa, ma to ratou Atua, whakatakotoria ana e ratou tenei puranga, te nei puranga.
And, as for the sons of Israel and Judah who were dwelling in the cities of Judah, even they, a tithe of oxen, and sheep, and a tithe of hallowed things, which had been hallowed unto Yahweh their God, did bring in and pile up—heaps, heaps.
7 No te toru o nga marama i timata ai ta ratou whakatu i nga puranga, no te whitu o nga marama i oti ai.
In the third month, began they the heaps, at the foundation, —and, in the seventh, they finished.
8 Na, no te taenga mai o Hetekia ratou ko nga rangatira ka kite i nga puranga, whakapai ana ratou i a Ihowa, i tana iwi hoki, i a Iharaira.
And Hezekiah and the rulers came, and saw the heaps, —and blessed Yahweh, and his people Israel.
9 Katahi ka uia nga tohunga me nga Riwaiti e Hetekia mo nga puranga.
Then applied Hezekiah unto the priests and the Levites, concerning the heaps.
10 Na ka korero a Ataria te tino tohunga, no te whare o Haroko, ki a ia ka mea, No te timatanga o ta ratou kawe mai i nga whakahere ki te whare o Ihowa, ka kai matou, ka makona, nui atu hoki te toenga; e manaakitia ana hoki tana iwi e Ihowa. Na, ko te toenga, ko tenei haupu nui nei.
And Azariah, the chief priest of the house of Zadok, spake unto him, —and said—From the time of beginning to bring in, the heave-offering, into the house of Yahweh—to eat and to be full, there hath still been left, even to this abundance. For, Yahweh, hath blessed his people, and, that which is left, is this great plenty.
11 Katahi a Hetekia ka ki kia whakapaia etahi ruma ki te whare o Ihowa. Na ka whakapaia
Then Hezekiah gave word to prepare chambers, in the house of Yahweh, and they prepared them;
12 A kawea ana e ratou ki roto nga whakahere, nga whakatekau, nga mea i whakatapua; pono tonu ta ratou; ko te kaitiaki o aua mea, ko Konania Riwaiti; ko tona tuarua, ko tona teina, ko Himei.
and brought in the heave-offering and the tithe and the hallowed things, faithfully, —and, over them, as chief ruler, was Cononiah the Levite, and Shimei his brother, next;
13 Ko Tehiere hoki, ko Atatia, ko Nahata, ko Atahere, ko Terimoto, ko Iotapara, ko Eriere, ko Ihimakia, ko Mahata, ko Penaia hei kaitirotiro, i raro ano i a Konania raua ko tona teina ko Himei, he mea whakarite na Kingi Hetekia raua ko Ataria ranga tira o te whare o te Atua.
and Jehiel and Azaziah and Nahath and Asahel and Jerimoth and Jozabad, and Eliel and Ismachiah, and Mahath, and Benaiah, —overseers under the direction of Cononiah and Shemei his brother, by the appointment of Hezekiah the king, and Azariah the chief ruler of the house of God.
14 Na ko Kore tama a Imina Riwaiti, kaitiaki ki te kuwaha ki te rawhiti, hei kaitiaki mo nga mea homai noa ki te Atua, hei tuwha i nga whakahere o Ihowa, i nga mea tapu rawa.
And, Kore, son of Imnah the Levite, the door-keeper on the east, was over the freewill offerings of God, —to give the heave-offering of Yahweh, and the most holy things.
15 Na i raro i a ia ko Erene, ko Miniamini, ko Hehua, ko Hemaia, ko Amaria, ko Hekania, i nga pa o nga tohunga, ki ta ratou mahi tuturu, hei tuwha ma o ratou tuakana, teina, ma nga wehenga, ma te rahi, ma te iti:
And, under his direction, were Eden and Miniamin and Jeshua and Shemaiah, Amariah and Shecaniah, in the cities of the priests, in trust to give unto their brethren by courses, as the great so the small;
16 Haunga era i te whakapapa, nga tane e toru nei, maha atu ranei nga tau, ma te hunga katoa e tomo ana ki te whare o Ihowa, te mea mo tenei ra, mo tenei ra, mo ta ratou mahi, i a ratou e mahi ana, ara i a ratou i wehea ra hei tiaki;
besides registering them by males, from three years old and upward, unto every one that entered into the house of Yahweh, in the need of a day upon its day, —by their service, in their watches, according to their courses:
17 Ma nga tohunga ano i te whakapapa, ma nga whare o o ratou matua, ratou ko nga Riwaiti, ma te hunga e rua tekau, maha atu ranei nga tau, i a ratou i wehea ra hei tiaki;
both the registering of the priests, by their ancestral houses, and the Levites, from twenty years old and upward, —in their watches, in their courses;
18 Ma a ratou kohungahunga katoa ano i te whakapapa, ma a ratou wahine, ma a ratou tama, ma a ratou tamahine, i te whakaminenga katoa; i runga hoki i te tapu ta ratou whakatapunga i a ratou ki ta ratou mahi tuturu:
even to the registering of all their little ones, their wives and their sons and their daughters, unto all the convocation, —for, in their trust, they hallowed themselves in holiness;
19 Ma nga tama ano a Arona, ma nga tohunga i nga mara i waho ake o o ratou pa: kei tenei pa, kei tenei pa, etahi tangata, he mea whakahua o ratou ingoa, hei tuwha ma nga tane katoa i roto i nga tohunga, ma te hunga katoa ano i roto i nga Riwaiti ku a oti te whakapapa.
also unto the sons of Aaron the priests in the fields of the pasture land of their cities, in every several city, men who were expressed by name, —to give portions to every male among the priests, and to all registered among the Levites.
20 Ko ta Hetekia mahi tenei puta noa i a Hura; mahia ana e ia te pai, te tika, me te pono i te aroaro o Ihowa, o tona Atua.
And Hezekiah did thus, throughout all Judah, —and he did that which was good and right and faithful, before Yahweh his God.
21 I nga meatanga katoa, i a ia ka anga nei ki nga mahi o te whare o te Atua, ki te ture, ki nga whakahau, a ka rapu i tona Atua, i whakapaua tona ngakau ki te mahi, a oti pai tana.
And, in all the work which he began in the service of the house of God—and in the law—and in the commandment, to seek unto his God, with all his heart, he wrought, and prospered.
