2 Whakapapa 35

1 Na ka mahia e Hohia te kapenga ki Hiruharama hei mea ki a Ihowa; patua ana e ratou te kapenga i te tekau ma wha o te marama tuatahi.

And Josias kept a passover to the Lord his God; and sacrificed the passover on the fourteenth day of the first month.

2 I whakaturia ano e ia nga tohunga ki ta ratou mahi, i whakatenatena ano i a ratou ki nga mahi o te whare o Ihowa.

And he appointed the priests at their charges, and encouraged them for the services of the house of the Lord.

3 A i mea ia ki nga Riwaiti, ki nga kaiwhakaako o Iharaira katoa, ara ki te hunga i tapu ki a Ihowa, Whakatakotoria te aaka tapu ki te whare i hanga e Horomona tama a Rawiri, kingi o Iharaira: a kore ake e tau he pikaunga ki runga ki o koutou pokoh iwi; me mahi koutou aianei ki a Ihowa, ki to koutou Atua, ki tana iwi ano, ki a Iharaira.

And he told the Levites that were able [to act] in all Israel, that they should consecrate themselves to the Lord: and they put the holy ark in the house which Solomon the son of David king of Israel built: and the king said, You must not carry anything on your shoulders: now then minister to the Lord your God, and to his people Israel.

4 Kia ata rite koutou, tenei whare, tenei whare o o koutou matua, i o koutou wehenga, kia rite ki te mea i tuhituhia e Rawiri kingi o Iharaira, ki te mea ano i tuhituhia e tana tama, e Horomona.

And prepare yourselves according to the houses of your families, and according to your daily courses, according to the writing of David king of Israel, and [the order] by the hand of his son Solomon.

5 Me tu hoki ki te wahi tapu; kia rite ano nga wehenga o nga whare o nga matua o o koutou tuakana, teina, o nga tama a te iwi, a ma tenei, ma tenei, he wehenga o tetahi o nga whare matua o nga Riwaiti.

And stand you in the house according to the divisions of the houses of your families for your brethren the sons of the people; [so] also let there be for the Levites a division of the house of their family.

6 Ka patu ai i te kapenga, ka whakatapu ai i a koutou, ka whakapai ano i o koutou tuakana, teina, kia rite ai ta ratou mahi ki ta Ihowa kupu, i korerotia ra e Mohi.

And kill you the passover, and prepare [it] for your brethren, to do according to the word of the Lord, by the hand of Moses.

7 I homai ano e Hohia ki nga tama a te iwi etahi reme, etahi kuao koati i te kahui, enei katoa mo nga kapenga, hei mea ma te hunga katoa i reira, e toru tekau mano te maha, e toru mano nga puru: no nga taonga enei a te kingi.

And Josias gave as an offering to the children of the people, sheep, and lambs, and kids of the young of the goats, all for the passover, [even for] all that were found, in number [amounting to] thirty thousand, and three thousand calves, these [were] of the substance of the king.

8 I homai ano e ana rangatira, he mea tapae noa ki te iwi, ki nga tohunga, ki nga Riwaiti. I homai e Hirikia, e Hakaraia, e Tehiere, ara e nga rangatira o te whare o te Atua ki nga tohunga etahi kararehe hei mea kapenga, e rua mano e ono rau, he pu ru hoki e toru rau.

And his princes gave an offering to the people, and to the priests, and to the Levites: and Chelcias and Zacharias and Jeiel the chief men gave to the priests of the house of God, they even gave for the passover sheep, and lambs, and kids, two thousand six hundred, and three hundred calves.

9 Na, ko ona teina, ko Konania, ko Hemaia, ko Netaneere, me nga rangatira o nga riwaiti, me Hahapia, ratou ko Teiere, ko Iotapara, homai ana e ratou ki nga Riwaiti hei mea kapenga, e rima mano o etahi kararehe ano, e rima rau nga puru.

And Chonenias, and Banaeas, and Samaeas, and Nathanael his brother, and Asabias, and Jeiel, and Jozabad, heads of the Levites, gave an offering to the Levites for the passover, of five thousand sheep and five hundred calves.

10 Heoi kua rite nga mea mo te mahi, a kau tu nga tohunga ki o ratou turanga, me nga Riwaiti, tenei wehenga, tenei wehenga o ratou, ko ta te kingi hoki i whakahau ai.

And the service was duly ordered, and the priests stood in their place, and the Levites in their divisions, according to the command of the king.

11 Na ka patua te kapenga, tauhuihia ana e nga tohunga te toto i homai nei ki o ratou ringa, a na nga Riwaiti i tihore.

And they killed the passover, and the priests sprinkled the blood from their hand, and the Levites flayed [the victims].

12 I wehea hoki e ratou nga tahunga tinana, hei hoatu ki nga wehenga o nga whare o nga matua o te iwi, hei whakahere ki a Ihowa, kia rite ai ki te mea i tuhituhia ki te pukapuka a Mohi: pena ana ano ratou ki nga kau.

And they prepared the whole burnt offering to give to them, according to the division by the houses of families, [even] to the sons of the people, to offer to the Lord, as it is written in the book of Moses.

13 A tunua ana e ratou te kapenga ki te ahi, rite tonu ta ratou ki te tikanga. Ko era atu mea tapu ia i kohuatia ki te kohua, ki te pata, ki te hopane, a, hohoro tonu te tuwha ma te iwi katoa.

And thus [they did] till the morning. And they roasted the passover with fire according to the ordinance; and boiled the holy [pieces] in copper vessels and caldrons, and [the feast] went on well, and they quickly served all the children of the people.

14 A muri iho ka taka ma ratou ake ko nga tohunga; i te mahi tonu hoki nga tohunga, nga tama a Arona, i te whakaeke i nga tahunga tinana, i te ngako a po noa; no reira ko nga Riwaiti hei taka ma ratou ko nga tohunga, ko nga tama a Arona.

And after they had prepared for themselves and for the priests, for the priests [were engaged] in offering the whole burnt offerings and the fat until night, then the Levites prepared for themselves, and for their brethren the sons of Aaron.

15 Na, ko nga kaiwaiata, ko nga tama a Ahapa i to ratou na turanga, ko ta Rawiri hoki ia i whakahau ai, ratou ko Ahapa, ko Hemana, ko Ierutunu matakite a te kingi. Na, ko nga kaitiaki kuwaha i tenei kuwaha, i tenei kuwaha ratou; kahore he tikanga k ia mahua ta ratou mahi, ko o ratou tuakana hoki, ko nga Riwaiti, hei taka ma ratou.

And the sons of Asaph the psalm-singers [were] at their post according to the commands of David, and Asaph, and Aeman, and Idithom, the prophets of the king: also, the chiefs and the porters of the several gates; —it was not for them to stir from the service of the holy things, for their brethren the Levites prepared for them.

16 Heoi oti ake te mahi katoa ki a Ihowa i taua ra ano, ara te mahi i te kapenga, me te whakaeke ano i nga tahunga tinana ki runga ki te aata a Ihowa, ko ta Kingi Hohia hoki i whakahau ai.

So all the service of the Lord was duly ordered and prepared in that day, for keeping the passover, and offering the whole burnt sacrifices on the altar of the Lord, according to the command of king Josias.

17 Na i mahia i taua wa e nga tama a Iharaira i kitea ki reira te kapenga me te hakari taro rewenakore, e whitu ra:

And the children of Israel that were present kept the passover at that time, and the feast of unleavened bread seven days.

18 Kahore hoki he kapenga hei rite mo tera i mahia i roto i a Iharaira, no nga ra ano o Hamuera poropiti: kahore hoki he kapenga i mahia e nga kingi katoa o Iharaira hei rite mo ta Hohia i mahi ai, ratou ko nga tohunga, ko nga Riwaiti, ko Hura kato a, me te hunga o Iharaira i reira, me nga tangata ano o Hiruharama.

And there was no passover like it in Israel from the days of Samuel the prophet, or any king of Israel: they kept not such a passover as Josias, and the priests, and the Levites, and all Juda and Israel that were present, and the dwellers in Jerusalem, kept to the Lord.

19 No te tekau ma waru o nga tau o te kingitanga o Hohia i mahia ai tenei kapenga.

In the eighteenth year of the reign of Josias this passover was kept, after all these things that Josias did in the house.

20 I muri i tenei katoa, i te mea ka oti i a Hohia te temepara te whakapai ka haere a Neko kingi o Ihipa ki te tatau ki Karakemihi ki te taha o Uparati, a puta ana a Hohia ki te tu i a ia.

And Pharao Nechao king of Egypt went up against the king of the Assyrians to the river Euphrates, and king Josias went to meet him.

21 Otiia ka tono tangata mai tera ki a ia, hei mea, Ko te aha ta taua, e te kingi o Hura? ehara taku inaianei i te mea ki a koe; engari ki te whare ka whawhaitia nei e ahau; kua mea nei hoki te Atua ki ahau kia hohoro taku. Kei pokanoa koe ki ta te Atua; kei ahau hoki ia, kei whakangaro ia i a koe.

And he sent messengers to him, saying, What have I to do with you, O king of Juda? I am not come today to war against you; and God has told me to hasten: beware of the God that is with me, lest he destroy you.

22 Kihai ia te mata o Hohia i tahuri atu i a ia. Whakaahua ke ana ia i a ia, he mea kia whawhai raua; kihai ano i rongo ki nga kupu a Neko, no te mangai o te Atua; a haere ana ki te whawhai ki te raorao i Mekiro.

However, Josias turned not his face from him, but strengthened himself to fight against him, and listened not to the words of Nechao by the mouth of God, and he came to fight in the plain of Mageddo.

23 Na ka kopere nga kaikopere ki a Kingi Hohia. A ka mea te kingi ki ana tangata, Kawea atu ahau; he nui rawa hoki toku tunga.

And the archers shot at king Josias; and the king said to his servants, Take me away, for I am severely wounded.

24 Na ka tangohia ia e ana tangata i te hariata, a utaina ana ki te tuarua o ana hariata, kawea atu ana ki Hiruharama, a mate iho ia; na tanumia ana ia ki nga urupa o ona matua. A tangihia ana a Hohia e Hura katoa, e Hiruharama.

And his servants lifted him out of the chariot, and put him in the second chariot which he had, and brought him to Jerusalem; and he died, and was buried with his fathers: and all Juda and Jerusalem lamented over Josias.

25 A i waiatatia ano e Heremaia he apakura mo Hohia; i korerotia ano a Hohia e nga kaiwaiata, e nga tane, e nga wahine, i a ratou apakura, a taea noatia tenei ra; a waiho iho e ratou hei tikanga ma Iharaira. Nana, kei roto na i nga waiata tangi.

And Jeremias mourned over Josias, and all the chief men and chief women uttered a lamentation over Josias until this day: and they made it an ordinance for Israel, and, behold, it is written in the lamentations.

26 Na, ko era atu meatanga a Hohia, me ana mahi atawhai, rite tonu ki nga mea i tuhituhia ki te ture a Ihowa,

And the rest of the acts of Josias, and his hope, are written in the law of the Lord.

27 Ko ana meatanga o mua, o muri, nana, kei te tuhituhi i te pukapuka o nga kingi o Iharaira, o Hura.

And his acts, the first and the last, behold, [they are] written in the book of the kings of Israel and Judah.
