2 Kingi 14

1 No te rua o nga tau o Ioaha tama a Iehoahata kingi o Iharaira i kingi ai a Amatia tama a Ioaha kingi o Hura.

In the second year of Joas son of Joachaz, king of Israel, reigned Amasias son of Joas king of Juda.

2 E rua tekau ma rima ona tau i a ia ka kingi nei, a e rua tekau ma iwa nga tau i kingi ai ia ki Hiruharama. Ko te ingoa hoki o tona whaea ko Iehoarana, no Hiruharama.

He was five and twenty years old when he began to reign: and nine and twenty years he reigned in Jerusalem: the name of his mother was Joadan of Jerusalem.

3 A he tika tana mahi ki te titiro a Ihowa, otiia kihai i rite ki ta tona tupuna, ki ta Rawiri. Rite tonu tana mahi ki nga mea katoa i mea ai tona papa a Ioaha.

And he did that which was right before the Lord, but yet not like David his father. He did according to all things that Joas his father did:

4 Ko nga wahi tiketike ia kahore i whakakahoretia: i patu whakahere tonu ano te iwi, i tahu whakakakara ki nga wahi tiketike.

But this only, that he took not away the high places: for yet the people sacrificed and burnt incense in the high places.

5 A, no te unga o te kingitanga ki tona ringa, ka patua e ia ana tangata, nana ra i patu te kingi, tona papa.

And when he had possession of the kingdom, he put his servants to death that had slain the king his father:

6 Ko nga tamariki ia a nga kaikohuru kihai i whakamatea e ia, kia rite ai ki te mea i tuhituhia ki te pukapuka o te ture a Mohi, ki ta Ihowa hoki i whakahau ai, i ki ai, Kaua e whakamatea nga matua mo ta nga tamariki, kaua ano hoki e whakamatea nga tamariki mo ta nga matua; engari mate iho tenei, tenei, mo tona hara ake.

But the children of the murderers he did not put to death, according to that which is written in the book of the law of Moses, wherein the Lord commanded, saying: The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, neither shall the children be put to death for the fathers: but every man shall die for his own sins.

7 I patua e ia o nga Eromi ki te Raorao Tote tekau nga mano, a riro ana i a ia a Hera i te whawhai, a huaina iho e ia te ingoa ko Iokoteere, e mau nei a taea noatia tenei ra.

He slew of Edom in the valley of the Saltpits ten thousand men, and took the rock by war, and called the name thereof Jectehel, unto this day.

8 Katahi a Amatia ka unga tangata ki a Iehoaha tama a Iehoahata tama a Iehu kingi o Iharaira, ka mea, Haere mai, taua ka titiro ki a taua.

Then Amasias sent messengers to Joas son of Joachaz, son of Jehu king of Israel, saying: Come let us see one another.

9 Na ka unga tangata a Iehoaha kingi o Iharaira ki a Amatia kingi o Hura, hei mea, I unga tangata te tataramoa i Repanona ki te hita i Repanona, i mea, Homai tau tamahine hei wahine ma taku tama. Na, ko te haerenga atu o tetahi kararehe o te parae i Repanona, takahia iho e ia taua tataramoa.

And Joas king of Israel sent again to Amasias king of Juda, saying: A thistle of Libanus sent to a cedar tree, which is in Libanus, saying: Give thy daughter to my son to wife. And the beasts of the forest, that are in Libanus, passed and trod down the thistle.

10 He tika i patua e koe a Eroma, a hikitia ana koe e tou ngakau: ko tena hei whakapehapeha mau, ka noho i tou whare. He aha koe ka whakapataritari ai, hei kino ano mou, e hinga ai koe, a koe me Hura?

Thou hast beaten and prevailed over Edom, and thy heart hath lifted thee up: be content with the glory, and sit at home: why provokest thou evil, that thou shouldst fall, and Juda with thee?

11 Otiia kihai a Amatia i rongo. Na haere ana a Iehoaha kingi o Iharaira, a titiro ana raua ko Amatia kingi o Hura ki a raua ki Petehemehe o Hura.

But Amasias did not rest satisfied. So Joas king of Israel went up, and he and Amasias king of Juda saw one another in Bethsames a town in Juda.

12 Na ka patua a Hura i te aroaro o Iharaira, a rere ana ki tona teneti, ki tona teneti.

And Juda was put to the worst before Israel, and they fled every man to their dwellings.

13 Na ka hopukia a Amatia kingi o Hura tama a Iehoaha, tama a Ahatia, e Iehoaha kingi o Iharaira ki Petehemehe. Na ka haere tera ki Hiruharama, wahia ana e ia te taiepa o Hiruharama i te kuwaha o Eparaima tae noa ki te kuwaha o te koki, e wha rau n ga whatianga.

But Joas king of Israel took Amasias, king of Juda the son of Joas, the son of Ochozias, in Bethsames, and brought him into Jerusalem: and he broke down the wall of Jerusalem, from the gate of Ephraim to the gate of the corner, four hundred cubits.

14 Tangohia ake hoki e ia te koura katoa me te hiriwa, me nga oko katoa i kitea ki te whare o Ihowa, ki nga taonga o te whare o te kingi, me etahi tangata hei taumau i te ata noho, a hoki ana ki Hamaria.

And he took all the gold, and silver, and all the vessels, that were found in the house of the Lord, and in the king’s treasures, and hostages, and returned to Samaria.

15 Na, ko era atu meatanga i mea ai a Iehoaha me ana mahi toa, me tana whawhai ki a Amatia kingi o Hura, kahore ianei i tuhituhia ki te pukapuka o nga meatanga o nga ra o nga kingi o Iharaira?

But the rest of the acts of Joas, which 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?

16 Na ka moe a Iehoaha ki ona matua, a tanumia ana ki Hamaria ki nga kingi o Iharaira; a ko tana tama, ko Ieropoama te kingi i muri i a ia.

And Joas slept with his fathers, and was buried in Samaria, with the kings of Israel: and Jeroboam his son reigned in his stead.

17 A kotahi tekau ma rima nga tau i ora ai a Amatia tama a Ioaha kingi o Hura i muri i te matenga o Iehoaha tama a Iehoahata kingi o Iharaira.

And Amasias the son of Joas king of Juda lived, after the death of Joas son of Joachaz king of Israel fifteen years.

18 Na, ko era atu meatanga a Amatia, kahore ianei i tuhituhia ki te pukapuka o nga meatanga o nga ra o nga kingi o Hura?

And the rest of the acts of Amasias, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Juda?

19 Na ka whakatupu ratou i te he mona ki Hiruharama; a rere ana ia ki Rakihi: otiia i tonoa e ratou he tangata ki te whai i a ia ki Rakihi, a patua iho ia ki reira.

Now they made a conspiracy against him in Jerusalem: and he fled to Lachis. And they sent after him to Lachis, and killed him there.

20 Na mauria ana ia i runga hoiho, a tanumia ana ki Hiruharama ki ona matua ki te pa o Rawiri.

And they brought him away upon horses, and he was buried in Jerusalem with his fathers in the city of David.

21 Na ka mau te iwi katoa o Hura ki a Ataria, tekau ma ono ona tau, a meinga ana ia e ratou hei kingi i muri i tona papa, i a Amatia.

And all the people of Juda took Azarias, who was sixteen years old, and made him king instead of his father Amasias.

22 Nana Erata i hanga, i whakahoki ano ki a Hura, i muri iho ka moe te kingi ki ona matua.

He built Elath, and restored it to Juda, after that the king slept with his fathers.

23 No te tekau ma rima o nga tau o Amatia tama a Ioaha kingi o Hura i kingi ai a Ieropoama tama a Ioaha kingi o Iharaira ki Hamaria, e wha tekau ma tahi nga tau i kingi ai ia.

In the fifteenth year of Amasias son of Joas king of Juda, reigned Jeroboam the son of Joas king of Israel in Samaria, one and forty years:

24 A he kino tana mahi ki te titiro a Ihowa: kihai i mahue i a ia tetahi hara o Ieropoama tama a Nepata i hara ai a Iharaira.

And he did that which was evil before the Lord. He departed not from all the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nabat, who made Israel to sin.

25 Nana i whakahoki te rohe o Iharaira, i te haerenga atu ki Hamata a tae noa ki te moana o te Arapaha; i rite ai te kupu a Ihowa, a te Atua o Iharaira, ara ta tana pononga, ta Hona poropiti tama a Amitai o Katahewhere i korero ai.

He restored the borders of Israel from the entrance of Emath, unto the sea of the wilderness, according to the word of the Lord the God of Israel, which he spoke by his servant Jonas the son of Amathi, the prophet, who was of Geth, which is in Opher.

26 I kite hoki a Ihowa i te tukinotanga o Iharaira, he kino rawa; kihai tetahi i tutakina ki roto, i mahue noa atu ranei, kahore hoki he kaiwhakaora mo Iharaira.

For the Lord saw the affliction of Israel that it was exceeding bitter, and that they were consumed even to them that were shut up in prison, and the lowest persons, and that there was no one to help Israel.

27 Kihai hoki a Ihowa i ki kia horoia atu te ingoa o Iharaira i raro i te rangi: engari i meinga e ia kia whakaorangia ratou e te ringa o Ieropoama tama a Ioaha.

And the Lord did not say that he would blot out the name of Israel from under heaven, but he saved them by the hand of Jeroboam the son of Joas.

28 Na, ko era atu meatanga a Ieropoama me ana mahi katoa, me ana mahi toa, ana whawhai, tana whakahokinga i Ramahiku, i Hamata, no Hura ra i mua, ki a Iharaira, kihai ianei i tuhituhia ki te pukapuka o nga meatanga o nga ra o nga kingi o Iharaira?

But the rest of the acts of Jeroboam, and all that he did, and his velour, wherewith he fought, and how he restored Damascus, and Emath to Juda in Israel, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?

29 Na ka moe a Ieropoama ki ona matua, ki nga kingi o Iharaira; a ko tana tama, ko Hakaraia te kingi i muri i a ia.

And Jeroboam slept with his fathers the kings of Israel, and Zacharias his son reigned in his stead.
