1 N a kua korero a Eriha ki te wahine nana nei te tamaiti i whakaorangia e ia, kua mea, Whakatika, haere koutou ko tou whare, a e noho ki tau wahi e noho ai koe: kua karangatia hoki e Ihowa he matekai; a ka pa hoki ki te whenua, e whitu tau.

Now Elisha had said to the woman whose son he had restored to life, Arise and go with your household and sojourn wherever you can, for the Lord has called for a famine, and moreover, it will come upon the land for seven years.

2 N a ka whakatika taua wahine, ka mea i ta te tangata a te Atua i ki ai: a haere ana ratou ko tona whare, noho ana ki te whenua o nga Pirihitini, e whitu nga tau.

So the woman arose and did as the man of God had said. She went with her household and sojourned in the land of the Philistines seven years.

3 N a, i te takanga o nga tau e whitu, ka hoki atu taua wahine i te whenua o nga Pirihitini: a haere ana ia ki te karanga ki te kingi mo tona whare, mo tana mara.

At the end of the seven years the woman returned from the land of the Philistines, and she went to appeal to the king for her house and land.

4 N a ko te kingi i te korero ki a Kehati, tangata a te tangata a te Atua; i mea hoki ia, Tena, korerotia mai ki ahau nga mahi nunui katoa i mea ai a Eriha.

The king talked with Gehazi, the servant of the man of God, saying, Tell me all the great things Elisha has done.

5 A , i a ia e korero ana ki te kingi i tana whakaoranga i te tupapaku, na, ko te wahine nana nei te tamaiti i whakaorangia e ia i te mate, e karanga ana ki te kingi mo tona whare, mo tana mara. Na ka mea a Kehati, E toku ariki, e te kingi, koia ten ei te wahine, a ko tana tama tenei i whakaorangia ra e Eriha.

And as Gehazi was telling the king how had restored the dead to life, behold, the woman whose son he had restored to life appealed to the king for her house and land. And Gehazi said, My lord O king, this is the woman, and this is her son whom Elisha brought back to life.

6 A , i te uinga a te kingi ki te wahine ra, ka korerotia e ia ki a ia. Heoi ka tukua e te kingi ki a ia tetahi o nga rangatira, ka mea, Whakahokia ana mea katoa, me nga hua katoa o te mara mai o te ra i mahue ai i a ia te whenua a mohoa noa nei.

When the king asked the woman, she told him. So the king appointed to her a certain officer, saying, Restore all that was hers, and all the fruits of the field since the day that she left the land even until now.

7 A i haere a Eriha ki Ramahiku; a e mate ana a Peneharara kingi o Hiria; na ka whakaaturia ki a ia, ka korerotia, Kua tae mai te tangata a te Atua ki konei.

Elisha came to Damascus, and Ben-hadad king of Syria was sick; and he was told, The man of God has come here.

8 N a ka mea atu te kingi ki a Hataere, Maua atu tetahi hakari i tou ringa, ka haere ki te whakatau i te tangata a te Atua, ka ui ki ta Ihowa ki a ia, ka mea, E ora ranei ahau i tenei mate?

And the king said to Hazael, Take a present in your hand and go meet the man of God, and inquire of the Lord by him, saying, Shall I recover from this disease?

9 N a haere ana a Hataere ki te whakatau i a ia, me te mau ano he hakari i tona ringa, i etahi o nga mea papai katoa o Ramahiku, he kawenga na nga kamera e wha tekau, a ka tae, ka tu i tona aroaro, ka mea, Na tau tama, na Peneharara kingi o Hiria ah au i unga mai ki a koe, hei mea, E ora ranei ahau i tenei mate?

So Hazael went to meet Elisha and took a present with him of every good thing of Damascus, forty camel loads, and came and stood before him and said, Your son Ben-hadad king of Syria has sent me to you, asking, Shall I recover from this disease?

10 A no ra ko Eriha ki a ia, Haere, mea atu ki a ia, E ora ano koe; otiia kua oti i a Ihowa te whakakite mai ki ahau, tera ia e mate.

And Elisha said, Go, say to him, You shall certainly recover; but the Lord has shown me that he shall certainly die.

11 N a ka whakatau ia i tona mata ki runga ki a ia, u tonu, a whakama noa ia; ko te tino tangihanga o te tangata a te Atua.

Elisha stared steadily at him until Hazael was embarrassed. And the man of God wept.

12 N a ka mea a Hataere, Na te aha toku ariki i tangi ai? Ano ra ko ia, No te mea e mohio ana ahau ki te kino e meatia e koe ki nga tama a Iharaira; ko o ratou pa e tahuna e koe ki te ahi, ko a ratou taitamariki e patua e koe ki te hoari, ko a ratou kohungahunga e taia iho e koe, a ko a ratou wahine hapu ka ripiripia e koe.

And Hazael said, Why do you weep, my lord? He answered, Because I know the evil that you will do to the Israelites. You will burn their strongholds, slay their young men with the sword, dash their infants in pieces, and rip up their pregnant women.

13 A no ra ko Hataere, Ha! he aha tau pononga, he kuri noa nei, kia meatia e ia tenei mea nui? Ano ra ko Eriha, Kua whakakitea mai e Ihowa ki ahau, ko koe hei kingi mo Hiria.

And Hazael said, What is your servant, only a dog, that he should do this monstrous thing? And Elisha answered, The Lord has shown me that you will be king over Syria.

14 H eoi mawehe atu ana ia i a Eriha, a ka tae ki tona ariki; a ka mea tera ki a ia, I pehea mai te kupu a Eriha ki a koe? Ano ra ko ia, E ki ana ia, tera koe e ora.

Then departed from Elisha and came to his master, who said to him, What did Elisha say to you? And he answered, He told me you would surely recover.

15 N a, i te aonga ake, ka mau ia ki te kakahu matotoru, a tukua ana ki te wai, a uhia ana ki tona mata, na kua mate: a ko Hataere te kingi i muri i a ia.

But the next day Hazael took the bedspread and dipped it in water and spread it on face, so that he died. And Hazael reigned in his stead.

16 I te rima o nga tau o Iorama tama a Ahapa kingi o Iharaira, i a Iehohapata e kingi ana ki a Hura, ka kingi a Iehorama tama a Iehohapata kingi o Hura.

In the fifth year of Joram son of Ahab king of Israel, Jehoshaphat being then king of Judah, Jehoram son of Jehoshaphat king of Judah began to reign.

17 E toru tekau ma rua ona tau i a ia ka kingi nei, a e waru nga tau i kingi ai ia i Hiruharama.

He was thirty-two years old when he began to reign, and he reigned eight years in Jerusalem.

18 N a haere ana ia i te ara o nga kingi o Iharaira, pera tonu me nga mahi a te whare o Ahapa: i a ia hoki te tamahine a Ahapa hei wahine: a i mahia e ia te mea kino ki ta Ihowa titiro.

He walked in the ways of the kings of Israel, as did the house of Ahab, for the daughter of Ahab was his wife. He did evil in the sight of the Lord.

19 O tiia kihai a Ihowa i pai ki te whakangaro i a Hura, i whakaaro hoki ki tana pononga, ki a Rawiri, i korero hoki ia ki a ia, ka hoatu e ia ki a ia he rama ma ana tamariki mo nga ra katoa.

Yet, for David His servant’s sake, the Lord would not destroy Judah, for He promised to give him and his sons a lamp forever.

20 I ona ra ka maunu a Eroma i raro i te ringa o Hura, a whakakingitia ana he kingi mo ratou.

In his days, Edom revolted from the rule of Judah and set up a king over themselves.

21 K atahi ka haere a Iorama ki Tairi, me ana hariata katoa i a ia: a whakatika ana ia i te po, a patua iho e ia nga Eromi i karapotia ai ia, ratou ko nga rangatira o nga hariata: e rere ana te iwi ki o ratou teneti.

So Jehoram went over to Zair with all his chariots. He and his chariot commanders rose up by night and slew the Edomites who had surrounded them; and his army fled home.

22 H eoi i maunu a Eroma i raro i te ringa o Hura a tae noa ki tenei ra. Katahi ka maunu ano hoki a Ripina i taua wa.

So Edom revolted from the rule of Judah to this day. Then Libnah revolted at the same time.

23 N a, ko era atu meatanga a Iorama, me ana mahi katoa, kahore ianei i tuhituhia ki te pukapuka o nga meatanga o nga ra o nga kingi o Hura?

The rest of the acts of Jehoram, and all that he did, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?

24 N a kua moe a Iorama ki ona matua, a tanumia iho ki ona matua ki te pa o Rawiri; a ko Ahatia, ko tana tama te kingi i muri i a ia.

Jehoram slept with his fathers and was buried with in the City of David. Ahaziah his son reigned in his stead.

25 N a, i te tekau ma rua o nga tau o Iorama tama a Ahapa kingi o Iharaira, ka kingi a Ahatia tama a Iehorama kingi o Hura.

In the twelfth year of Joram son of Ahab king of Israel, Ahaziah son of Jehoram king of Judah began to reign.

26 E rua tekau ma rua nga tau o Ahatia i a ia ka kingi nei; a kotahi ona tau i kingi ai i Hiruharama. A ko te ingoa o tona whaea ko Ataria tamahine a Omori kingi o Iharaira.

Ahaziah was twenty-two years old when he began to reign, and he reigned one year in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Athaliah, the granddaughter of Omri king of Israel.

27 N a haere ana ia i te ara o te whare o Ahapa, a mahia ana e ia te kino ki te titiro a Ihowa, pera tonu me ta te whare o Ahapa: ko ia hoki te hunaonga o te whare o Ahapa.

He walked in the ways of the house of Ahab and did evil in the sight of the Lord, as did the house of Ahab, for his father was son-in-law of Ahab.

28 N a haere ana ia me Iorama tama a Ahapa ki te whawhai ki a Hataere kingi o Hiria ki Ramoto Kireara: na tu ana a Iorama i nga Hiriani.

Ahaziah went with Joram son of Ahab to war against Hazael king of Syria in Ramoth-gilead; and the Syrians wounded Joram.

29 N a hoki ana a Kingi Iorama ki Ietereere kia rongoatia nga tunga i tu ai ia i nga Hiriani ki Rama, i tana whawhai ki a Hataere kingi o Hiria. A haere ana a Ahatia tama a Iehorama kingi o Hura ki raro kia kite i a Iorama tama a Ahapa ki Ietereere, no te mea e mate ana ia.

King Joram returned to Jezreel to be healed of the wounds which the Syrians had given him at Ramah when he fought against Hazael king of Syria. And Ahaziah son of Jehoram king of Judah went down to see Joram son of Ahab in Jezreel, because he was sick.
