1 A son of twenty years Ahaz in his reigning, and sixteen years he hath reigned in Jerusalem, and he hath not done that which is right in the eyes of Jehovah, as David his father,

E rua tekau nga tau o Ahata i tona kingitanga, a tekau ma ono nga tau i kingi ai ia ki Hiruharama: kihai hoki ia i mahi i te tika ki ta Ihowa titiro, kihai i pera me tona papa, me Rawiri.

2 a nd walketh in the ways of the kings of Israel, and also, molten images hath made for Baalim,

I haere hoki ia i nga ara o nga kingi o Iharaira, i hanga ano i etahi whakapakoko whakarewa mo nga Paara.

3 a nd himself hath made perfume in the valley of the son of Hinnom, and burneth his sons with fire according to the abominations of the nations that Jehovah dispossessed from the presence of the sons of Israel,

I tahu whakakakara ano ia ki te raorao o te tama a Hinomo, tahuna ana ano e ia ana tamariki ki te ahi; rite tonu tana ki nga mea whakarihariha a nga iwi i peia nei e Ihowa i te aroaro o nga tama a Iharaira.

4 a nd sacrificeth and maketh perfume in high places, and on the heights, and under every green tree.

I patu whakahere ano ia, i tahu whakakakara ki nga wahi tiketike, ki nga pukepuke, ki raro i nga rakau kouru nui katoa.

5 A nd Jehovah his God giveth him into the hand of the king of Aram, and they smite him, and take captive from him a great captivity, and bring in to Damascus, and also into the hand of the king of Israel he hath been given, and he smiteth him -- a great smiting.

Na reira i tukua ai ia e Ihowa, e tona Atua ki te ringa o te kingi o Hiria; a patua ana ia e ratou, he tini ano hoki nga parau o ratou i whakaraua atu, kawea ana ki Ramahiku. I tukua atu ano ia ki te ringa o te kingi o Iharaira, patua iho e ia, h e nui te parekura.

6 A nd Pekah son of Remaliah slayeth in Judah a hundred and twenty thousand in one day (the whole sons of valour), because of their forsaking Jehovah, God of their fathers.

Kotahi hoki te rau e rua tekau mano i patua e Peka tama a Remaria ki Hura i te ra kotahi, he hunga maia katoa; mo ratou i whakarere i a Ihowa, i te Atua o o ratou matua.

7 A nd Zichri, a mighty one of Ephraim, slayeth Maaseiah son of the king, and Azrikam leader of the house, and Elkanah second to the king.

Na i patua e tetahi marohirohi o Eparaima, e Tikiri, a Maaheia tama a te kingi, a Atarikama, rangatira o te whare, me Erekana, to muri i te kingi.

8 A nd the sons of Israel take captive of their brethren, two hundred thousand, wives, sons and daughters, and also much spoil they have seized from them, and they bring in the spoil to Samaria.

Whakaraua atu ana e nga tama a Iharaira e rua rau mano o o ratou tuakana, teina, nga wahine, nga tamariki, nga tamahine, nui atu hoki o ratou taonga i pahuatia e ratou; kawea atu ana e ratou nga taonga ki Hamaria.

9 A nd there hath been there a prophet of Jehovah (Oded his name), and he goeth out before the host that hath come in to Samaria, and saith to them, `Lo, in the fury of Jehovah God of your fathers against Judah, He hath given them into your hand, and ye slay among them in rage -- unto the heavens it hath come;

Otiia he poropiti ta te Atua i reira, ko Orere tona ingoa; a ka puta ia ki te whakatau i te taua e haere ana mai ki Hamaria, ka mea ki a ratou, Nana, he riri no Ihowa, no te Atua o o koutou matua, ki a Hura i homai ai ratou e ia ki o koutou ringa; patua iho e koutou, tutuki noa te riri ki te rangi.

10 a nd now, sons of Judah and Jerusalem ye are saying to subdue for men-servants and for maid-servants to you; but are there not with you causes of guilt before Jehovah your God?

Heoi kei te mea koutou kia pehia ki raro nga tama o Hura, o Hiruharama, hei pononga tane, hei pononga wahine ma koutou; engari kahore ranei i a koutou na o koutou he hoki ki a Ihowa, ki to koutou Atua?

11 a nd now, hear me, and send back the captives whom ye have taken captive of your brethren, for the heat of the anger of Jehovah upon you.'

Tena, whakarongo ki ahau, whakahokia nga whakarau i whakaraua mai e koutou i o koutou tuakana, teina; no te mea kei te mura te riri o Ihowa, o to koutou Atua, ki a koutou.

12 A nd certain of the heads of the sons of Ephraim (Azariah son of Johanan, Berechiah son of Meshillemoth, and Jehizkiah son of Shallum, and Amasa son of Hadlai), rise up against those coming in from the host,

Katahi ka whakatika etahi o nga upoko o nga tama a Eparaima, a Ataria tama a Iehohanana, a Perekia tama a Mehiremoto, a Hetekia tama a Harumu, ratou ko Amaha tama a Hararai, ka tu atu ki te hunga i haere mai nei i te whawhai,

13 a nd say to them, `Ye do not bring in the captives hither, for, to guilt against Jehovah on us, ye are saying to add unto our sin and unto our guilt? for abundant the guilt we have, and the fierceness of anger on Israel.'

A ka mea ki a ratou, kei kawea mai e koutou nga whakarau na ki konei: ko ta koutou hoki e mea na hei homai ki a tatou he he ki a Ihowa, e whakanekehia ake ai o tatou hara me to tatou he: he nui hoki to tatou he, a he riri tenei te mura nei ki a Iharaira.

14 A nd the armed men leave the captives and the prey before the heads and all the assembly;

Heoi whakarerea iho e nga tangata i nga patu nga whakarau, me nga taonga i te aroaro o nga rangatira ratou ko te huihui katoa.

15 a nd the men who have been expressed by name rise and take hold on the captives, and all their naked ones they have clothed from the spoil, yea, they clothe them, and shoe them, and cause them to eat and drink, and anoint them, and lead them on asses, even every feeble one, and bring them in to Jericho, the city of palms, near their brethren, and turn back to Samaria.

Na ka whakatika nga tangata i whakahuatia o ratou ingoa, ka mau ki nga whakarau, whakakakahuria ana e ratou ki nga taonga nga mea kakahukore o ratou; whakakakahuria ana e ratou, whakawhiwhi rawa ki te hu, hoatu ana he mea hei kai, hei inu, whaka wahia ana, kawea ana nga mea kahakore katoa o ratou i runga i te kaihe, a tae noa ki Heriko, ki te pa nikau ki o ratou tuakana, teina. Na hoki ana ratou ki Hamaria.

16 A t that time hath king Ahaz sent unto the king of Asshur to give help to him;

I taua wa ka unga tangata a Kingi Ahata ki nga kingi o Ahiria hei awhina mona.

17 a nd again the Edomites have come, and smite in Judah, and take captive a captivity.

No te mea kua tae mai ano nga Eromi; patua iho e ratou a Hura, whakaraua atu ana etahi whakarau.

18 A nd the Philistines have rushed against the cities of the low country, and of the south of Judah, and capture Beth-Shemesh, and Aijalon, and Gederoth, and Shocho and its villages, and Timnah and its villages, and Gimzo and its villages, and dwell there,

Kua whakaekea hoki e nga Pirihitini nga pa o te raorao, o te taha ki te tonga o Hura, a riro ana i a ratou a Petehemehe, a Atarono, a Kereroto, a Hoko me ona pa ririki, a Timina me ona pa ririki, a Kimito me ona pa ririki: nohoia iho e ratou.

19 f or Jehovah hath humbled Judah because of Ahaz king of Israel, for he made free with Judah, even to commit a trespass against Jehovah.

Na Ihowa hoki i whakaiti a Hura, mo ta Ahata, mo ta te kingi o Iharaira; mo tana mahi wairangi i roto i a Hura, nui atu hoki tona he ki a Ihowa.

20 A nd Tilgath-Pilneser king of Asshur cometh in unto him, and doth distress him, and hath not strengthened him,

Na ka haere a Tirikata Pirinehere kingi o Ahiria ki a ia, ka whakararuraru i a ia, kihai hoki i whakakaha i a ia.

21 t hough Ahaz hath taken a portion of the house of Jehovah, and of the house of the king, and of the princes, and giveth to the king of Asshur, yet it is no help to him.

I tangohia hoki e Ahata tetahi wahi i roto i te whare o Ihowa, i te whare ano o te kingi ratou ko nga rangatira, a hoatu ana ki te kingi o Ahiria; kihai ano tera i awhina i a ia.

22 A nd in the time of his distress -- he addeth to trespass against Jehovah, (this king Ahaz),

Na i te wa i he ai ia, ka tohe ano ia ki te he ki a Ihowa, taua kingi a Ahata.

23 a nd he sacrificeth to the gods of Damascus -- those smiting him, and saith, `Because the gods of the kings of Aram are helping them, to them I sacrifice, and they help me,' and they have been to him to cause him to stumble, and to all Israel.

I patu whakahere hoki ia ki nga atua o Ramahiku i patu nei i a ia; i ki hoki ia, Ko nga atua o nga kingi o Hiria kei te awhina i a ratou, na, me patu whakahere ahau ki a ratou, kia awhina ai ratou i ahau. Otiia ko ratou ano hei whakangoikore i a ia, i a Iharaira katoa ano hoki.

24 A nd Ahaz gathereth the vessels of the house of God, and cutteth in pieces the vessels of the house of God, and shutteth the doors of the house of Jehovah, and maketh to himself altars in every corner in Jerusalem.

Na ka huihuia e Ahata nga oko o te whare o te Atua, tapatapahia ana e ia nga oko o te whare o te Atua, a tutakina ana e ia nga tatau o te whare o Ihowa. I hanga ano e ia etahi aata mana ki nga koki katoa o Hiruharama.

25 A nd in every city and city of Judah he hath made high places to make perfume to other gods, and provoketh Jehovah, God of his fathers.

I hanga ano e ia ki nga pa o Hura etahi wahi tiketike hei tahu whakakakara ki nga atua ke, whakapataritaria ana e ia a Ihowa, te Atua o ona matua.

26 A nd the rest of his matters, and all his ways, the first and the last, lo, they are written on the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.

Na, ko era meatanga atu ana, ko ana meatanga katoa o mua, o muri, nana, kua oti te tuhituhi ki te pukapuka o nga kingi o Hura raua ko Iharaira.

27 A nd Ahaz lieth with his fathers, and they bury him in the city, in Jerusalem, but have not brought him in to the graves of the kings of Israel, and reign doth Hezekiah his son in his stead.

Na kua moe a Ahata ki ona matua, a tanumia iho ki te pa, ki Hiruharama; otiia kihai i kawea ki nga tanumanga o nga kingi o Iharaira; a ko Hetekia, ko tana tama, te kingi i muri i a ia.
