2 Kingi 21
1 Kotahi tekau ma rua nga tau o Manahi i tona kingitanga, a e rima tekau ma rima nga tau i kingi ai ia ki Hiruharama; a ko te ingoa o tona whaea ko Hepetipa.
Twelve years old, was Manasseh when he began to reign, and, fifty-five years, reigned he in Jerusalem, —and the name of his mother was Hephzibah.
2 A he kino tana mahi ki te titiro a Ihowa, i rite tonu ki nga mea whakarihariha a nga tauiwi i peia nei e Ihowa i te aroaro o nga tama a Iharaira.
And he did the thing that was wicked in the eyes of Yahweh, —after the abominable practices of the nations, whom Yahweh had dispossessed from before the sons of Israel.
3 I hanga ano hoki e ia nga wahi tiketike i whakakorea ra e Hetekia, e tona papa i whakaarahia ake ana e ia he aata ki a Paara, hanga ana e ia he Ahera, pera ana me ta Ahapa kingi o Iharaira i mea ai, a koropiko ana ki te ope katoa o te rangi, mahi ana ki a ratou.
He again built the high places, which Hezekiah his father had destroyed, —and reared altars to Baal, and made a Sacred Stem, as did Ahab, king of Israel, and bowed down to all the army of the heavens, and served them.
4 I hanga hoki e ia etahi aata ki te whare o Ihowa, ki ta Ihowa i ki ra, Ko Hiruharama hei waihotanga mo toku ingoa.
And he used to build altars in the house of Yahweh, —concerning which Yahweh had said, —In Jerusalem, will I put my Name.
5 I hanga ano e ia etahi aata mo te ope katoa o te rangi ki nga marae e rua o te whare o Ihowa.
And he built altars to all the army of the heavens, —in the two courts of the house of Yahweh;
6 A meatia ana e ia tana tama kia tika na waenganui i te ahi, rapua ana e ia he tohu i nga kapua, i nga nakahi, i whai hoki ia ki nga atua maori, ki nga mata maori; nui atu tana kino i mahi ai ki te titiro a Ihowa hei whakapataritari i a ia.
and caused his son to pass through the fire, and practised hidden arts and used divination, and dealt with a familiar spirit and wizards, —he exceeded in doing the thing that was wicked in the eyes of Yahweh, provoking [him] to anger;
7 A i whakaturia e ia he whakapakoko no Ahera, i mahia e ia ki te whare i ki ra a Ihowa ki a Rawiri raua ko tana tama ko Horomona, Hei tenei whare, hei Hiruharama i whiriwhiria nei e ahau i roto i nga iwi katoa o Iharaira ahau waiho ai i toku ingoa a ake ake.
and he set the image of the Sacred Stem which he had made, —in the house, of which Yahweh had said unto David, and unto Solomon his son, In this house, and in Jerusalem which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, will I put my Name, unto times age-abiding;
8 A heoi aku whakanekehanga i nga waewae o Iharaira i te whenua i hoatu e ahau ki o ratou matua: ki te mau raia ratou ki te mahi i nga mea katoa i whakahaua e ahau ki a ratou, kia rite ki te ture katoa i whakahaua e Mohi, e taku pononga ki a ratou.
and I will not again let the foot of Israel wander away from the soil which I gave unto their fathers. Only if they take heed to do according to all that I have commanded them, even to the extent of all the law which, my servant Moses, commanded them.
9 Otiia kihai ratou i rongo: i takina ketia ratou e Manahi kia nui atu ta ratou mahi kino i ta nga iwi i huna nei e Ihowa i te aroaro o nga tama a Iharaira.
But they hearkened not, —and Manasseh led them astray to do the thing that was wicked, more than the nations which Yahweh destroyed from before the sons of Israel.
10 I korero ano a Ihowa, ara ana pononga, nga poropiti, i mea,
Yahweh therefore spake through his servants the prophets saying—
11 Kua mahi nei a Manahi kingi o Hura i enei mea whakarihariha, kino atu tana i nga mea katoa i mea ai nga Amori i mua i a ia; a kua mea nei ia i a Hura kia hara ki ana whakapakoko;
Because Manasseh king of Judah hath made these abominations—hath done that which is wicked, more than all which the Amorites did who were before him, and hath caused, even Judah, to sin with his manufactured gods,
12 Mo reira ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, a te Atua o Iharaira, Tenei ahau te kawe nei i te kino ki Hiruharama raua ko Hura, e paorooro ai nga taringa e rua o nga tangata e rangona ai.
therefore—Thus, saith Yahweh, God of Israel, Behold me! bringing in calamity upon Jerusalem and Judah, —that, whosoever heareth thereof, both his ears, will tingle;
13 Ka whakamarokia e ahau te aho o Hamaria ki runga ki Hiruharama, me te parameti o te whare o Ahapa; a ka horoia e ahau a Hiruharama, ka peratia me ta te tangata horoi i te rihi; horoia ana e ia, hurihia ana ko tua.
And I will stretch over Jerusalem, the line of Samaria, and the plummet of the house of Ahab, —and will wipe out Jerusalem, as one wipeth out a dish, wiping it and turning it upside down;
14 A ka rukea atu e ahau te toenga o toku wahi tupu, ka hoatu ki nga ringa o o ratou hoariri; a hei taonga parau ratou, hei mea parakete ma o ratou hoariri katoa;
And will abandon the remnant of mine inheritance, and deliver them into the hand of their enemies, —and they shall become a prey and a plunder, to all their enemies:
15 Mo ratou i mahi i te kino ki taku titiro, i whakapataritari hoki i ahau, mai o te ra i puta mai ai o ratou matua i Ihipa a taea noatia tenei ra.
Because they have done the thing that is wicked in mine eyes, and have become such as to provoke me to anger, —from the day when their fathers came forth out of Egypt, even until this day.
16 I whakahekea ano hoki e Manahi he toto harakore, tona nui, a ki noa i a ia Hiruharama i tetahi pito ki tetahi; tapiritia ana tenei e ia ki tona hara i hara ai a Hura, i mea ai i te kino ki te titiro a Ihowa.
Moreover also, innocent blood, did Manasseh shed in great abundance, till he had filled Jerusalem, from one end to the other, besides his committing the sins which he caused, Judah, to commit, in doing the thing that was wicked in the eyes of Yahweh.
17 Na, ko era atu meatanga a Manahi me ana mahi katoa, me tona hara i hara ai ia, kihai ianei ena i tuhituhia ki te pukapuka o nga meatanga o nga ra o nga kingi o Hura?
Now, the rest of the story of Manasseh, and all that he did, and his sin that he committed, are, they, not written in the book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?
18 Na ka moe a Manahi ki ona matua, a tanumia ana ki te kari o tona whare, ki te kari a Uha: a ko tana tama, ko Amono, te kingi i muri i a ia.
And Manasseh slept with his fathers, and was buried in the garden of his own house, in the garden of Uzza, —and, Amon his son, reigned, in his stead.
19 E rua tekau ma rua nga tau o Amono i tona kingitanga, a e rua nga tau i kingi ai ia ki Hiruharama: a ko te ingoa o tona whaea ko Mehuremete, he tamahine na Harutu, no Iotopa.
Twenty-two years old, was Amon when he began to reign, and, two years, reigned he in Jerusalem, —and, his mother’s name, was Meshullemeth daughter of Haruz, of Jotbah.
20 A he kino tana mahi ki te titiro a Ihowa, rite tonu tana mahi ki ta tona papa, ki ta Manahi.
And he did the thing that was wicked in the eyes of Yahweh, —as did Manasseh his father;
21 I haere hoki ia i nga ara katoa i haere ai tona papa, i mahi ki nga whakapakoko i mahi ai tona papa, a koropiko ana ia ki aua mea.
yea he walked in all the way wherein, his father, had walked, —and served the manufactured gods that, his father, had served, and bowed down to them;
22 I whakarerea e ia a Ihowa, te Atua, o ona matua, kihai i haere i te ara o Ihowa.
and forsook Yahweh the God of his fathers, —and walked not in the way of Yahweh.
23 Na ka whakatupu nga tangata a Amono i te mate mona, a patua iho e ratou te kingi ki roto ano i tona whare.
And the servants of Amon, conspired against him, —and slew the king in his own house.
24 Otiia i patua e nga tangata o te whenua te hunga katoa nana i whakatupu te he mo Kingi Amono; a meinga ana e nga tangata o taua whenua a Hohia, tana tama, hei kingi i muri i a ia.
Then the people of the land smote all who had conspired against King Amon, —and the people of the land made, Josiah his son, king, in his stead.
25 Na, ko era atu meatanga i mea ai a Amono, kahore ianei i tuhituhia ki te pukapuka o nga meatanga o nga ra o nga kingi o Hura?
Now, the rest of the story of Amon, what he did, is, it, not written in the book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?
26 A i tanumia ia ki tona tanumanga ki te kari a Uha, a ko Hohia, ko tana tama, te kingi i muri i a ia.
And he was buried in his grave, in the garden of Uzza, —and, Josiah his son, reigned, in his stead.
