2 Kingi 13
1 No te rua tekau ma toru o nga tau o Ioaha tama a Ahatia kingi o Hura i kingi ai a Iehoahata tama a Iehu ki a Iharaira ki Hamaria, a tekau ma whitu nga tau i kingi ai.
In the three and twentieth year of Joas son of Ochozias king of Juda, Joachaz the son of Jehu reigned over Israel in Samaria, seventeen years.
2 A he kino tana mahi ki te titiro a Ihowa, i whai hoki ia i nga hara o Ieropoama tama a Nepata i hara ai a Iharaira. Kihai ena i mahue i a ia.
And he did evil before the Lord, and followed the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nabat, who made Israel to sin, and he departed not from them.
3 Na ka mura te riri o Ihowa ki a Iharaira, a hoatu ana ratou e ia ki te ringa o Hataere kingi o Hiria, ki te ringa ano hoki o Penehaara tama a Hataere i o raua ra katoa.
And the wrath of the Lord was kindled against Israel, and he delivered them into the hand of Hazael the king of Syria, and into the hand of Benadad the son of Hazael all days.
4 Na ka inoi a Iehoahata ki a Ihowa, a ka whakarongo a Ihowa ki a ia: i kite hoki ia i te tukinotanga o Iharaira, i tukinotia ai ratou e te kingi o Hiria.
But Joachaz besought the face of the Lord, and the Lord heard him: for he saw the distress of Israel, because the king of Syria had oppressed them:
5 Na homai ana e Ihowa he kaiwhakaora ki a Iharaira, a ka puta ake ratou i raro i te ringa o nga Hiriani: a noho ana nga tama a Iharaira ki o ratou teneti, he pera me mua.
And the Lord gave Israel a saviour, and they were delivered out of the hand of the king of Syria: and the children of Israel dwelt in their pavilions as yesterday and the day before.
6 Otiia kihai i mahue i a ratou nga hara o te whare o Ieropoama i hara ai a Iharaira, heoi haere ana i reira; tu tonu ano te Ahera i Hamaria.
But yet they departed not from the sins of Jeroboam, who made Israel to sin, but walked in them: and there still remained a grove also in Samaria.
7 Kahore hoki i waiho e ia o te iwi ki a Iehoahata, ko nga kaieke hoiho anake e rima tekau, tekau nga hariata, kotahi tekau mano nga hoia haere raro; i huna hoki ratou e te kingi o Hiria, a meinga ana kia rite ki te puehu i te patunga witi.
And Joachaz had no more left of the people than fifty horsemen, and ten chariots, and ten thousand footmen: for the king of Syria had slain them, and had brought them low as dust by thrashing in the barnfloor.
8 Na ko era atu meatanga a Iehoahata me ana mahi katoa, me ana mahi toa, kihai ianei ena i tuhituhia ki te pukapuka o nga meatanga o nga ra o nga kingi o Iharaira?
Rut the rest of the acts of Joachaz, and all that he did, and his valour, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?
9 Na ka moe a Iehoahata ki ona matua, a tanumia iho ki Hamaria: a ko Ioaha, ko tana tama te kingi i muri i a ia.
And Joachaz slept with his fathers, and they buried him in Samaria: and Joas his son reigned in his stead.
10 No te toru tekau ma whitu o nga tau o Ioaha kingi o Hura i kingi ai a Iehoaha tama a Iehoahata ki a Iharaira ki Hamaria, tekau ma ono nga tau.
In the seven and thirtieth year of Joas king of Juda, Joas the son of Joachaz reigned over Israel in Samaria sixteen years.
11 A he kino tana mahi ki te titiro a Ihowa; kihai i mahue i a ia tetahi o nga hara o Ieropoama tama a Nepata i hara ai a Iharaira: engari i haere ia i reira.
And he did that which is evil in the sight of the Lord: he departed not from all the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nabat, who made Israel to sin, but he walked in them.
12 Na, ko era atu meatanga a Ioaha me ana mahi katoa, me ana mahi toa i tana whawhai ki a Amatia kingi o Hura, kihai ianei era i tuhituhia ki te pukapuka o nga meatanga o nga ra o nga kingi o Iharaira?
But the rest of the acts of Joas, and all that he did, and his valour wherewith he fought against Amasias king of Juda, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?
13 Na ka moe a Ioaha ki ona matua, a noho ana a Ieropoama ki tona torona; i tanumia hoki a Ioaha ki Hamaria, ki nga kingi o Iharaira.
And Joas slept with his fathers: and Jeroboam sat upon his throne. But Joas was buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel.
14 Na i te mate a Eriha i tona mate e mate rawa ai: a haere iho ana a Ioaha kingi o Iharaira ki raro, ki a ia, a tangi ana i runga i a ia, ka mea, E toku papa, e toku papa, e nga hariata o Iharaira, e ona kaieke hoiho!
Now Eliseus was sick of the illness whereof he died: and Joas king of Israel went down to him, and wept before him, and said: O my father, my father, the chariot of Israel and the guider thereof.
15 Na ka mea a Eriha ki a ia, E mau ki te kopere, ki nga pere: a ka mau ia ki te kopere, ki nga pere.
And Eliseus said to him: Bring a bow and arrows. And when he had brought him a bow, and arrows,
16 Na ka mea ia ki te kingi o Iharaira, Pupuri tou ringa i te kopere: na kua puritia e tona ringa. Na ka whakapa a Eriha i ona ringa ki nga ringa o te kingi.
He said to the king of Israel: Put thy hand upon the bow. And when he had put his hand, Eliseus put his hands over the king’s hands,
17 Na ka ki tera, Uakina te matapihi whaka te rawhiti: na uakina ana e ia. Katahi a Eriha ka mea, Koperea: na koperea ana e ia. A ka mea tera, Ko te pere o ta Ihowa whakaoranga, ko te pere e ora ai i a Hiria: ka patua hoki e koe nga Hiriani ki Apek e, a poto noa.
And said: Open the window to the east. And when he had opened it, Eliseus said: Shoot an arrow. And he shot. And Eliseus said: The arrow of the Lord’s deliverance, and the arrow of the deliverance from Syria: and thou shalt strike the Syrians in Aphec, till thou consume them.
18 A ka mea ano ia, E mau ki nga pere: a kua riro i a ia. Na ka mea tera ki te kingi o Iharaira, Patua ki te whenua: a e toru ana patunga, ka tu.
And he said: Take the arrows. And when he had taken them, he said to him: Strike with an arrow upon the ground. And he struck three times and stood still.
19 Na ka riri te tangata a te Atua ki a ia, ka mea, Kia rima ke he patunga mau, kia ono ranei; penei kua patua e koe a Hiria a poto noa; ko tenei kia toru ano patunga mau i a Hiria.
And the man of God was angry with him, and said: If thou hadst smitten five or six or seven times, thou hadst smitten Syria even to utter destruction: but now three times shalt thou smite it.
20 Na ka mate a Eriha, a tanumia ana e ratou. A ka haere mai nga taua a nga Moapi ki te whenua i te aranga o te tau.
And Eliseus died, and they buried him. And the rovers from Moab came into the land the same year.
21 Na, i a ratou e tanu ana i tetahi tangata, ka kite ratou i te taua; heoi maka ana e ratou taua tangata ki te rua o Eriha: te panga o te tangata ra ki nga wheua o Eriha, kua ora, tu ana ona waewae ki runga.
And some that were burying a man, saw the rovers, and cast the body into the sepulchre of Eliseus. And when it had touched the bones of Eliseus, the man came to life, and stood upon his feet.
22 A i tukinotia a Iharaira e Hataere kingi o Hiria i nga ra katoa o Iehoahata.
Now Hazael king of Syria afflicted Israel all the days of Joachaz:
23 Otira i atawhai a Ihowa ki a ratou, i aroha ki a ratou, i tahuri hoki ki a ratou, he whakaaro ki tana kawenata ki a Aperahama, ki a Ihaka, ki a Hakopa, kihai hoki i mea kia huna ratou, kiano hoki ratou i maka e ia i tona aroaro.
And the Lord had mercy on them, and returned to them because of his covenant, which he had made with Abraham and Isaac and Jacob: and he would not destroy them, nor utterly cast them away, unto this present time.
24 Na ka mate a Hataere kingi o Hiria; a ko Peneharara, ko tana tama te kingi i muri i a ia.
And Hazael king of Syria died, and Benadad his son reigned in his stead.
25 Na tangohia ana e Iehoaha tama a Iehoahata i te ringa o Peneharara tama a Hataere nga pa i tangohia atu i te ringa o Iehoahata, o tona papa i te whawhai. E toru nga patunga a Ioaha i a ia, a whakahokia ana e ia nga pa o Iharaira.
Now Joas the son of Joachaz, took the cities out of the hand of Benadad, the son of Hazael, which he had taken out of the hand of Joachaz his father by war, three times did Joas beat him, and he restored the cities to Israel.
