II Chronicles 2

And Solomon determined to build an house for the name of the LORD, and an house for his kingdom.

Na ka mea a Horomona kia hanga he whare mo te ingoa o Ihowa, he whare hoki mo tona kingitanga.

And Solomon told out threescore and ten thousand men to bear burdens, and fourscore thousand to hew in the mountain, and three thousand and six hundred to oversee them.

Na ka taua e Horomona e whitu tekau mano tangata hei kaipikau, e waru tekau mano hoki hei tua i runga i te maunga, me nga kaitirotiro i a ratou e toru mano e ono rau.

And Solomon sent to Huram the king of Tyre, saying, As thou didst deal with David my father, and didst send him cedars to build him an house to dwell therein, even so deal with me.

Na ka tuku tangata a Horomona ki a Hurama kingi o Taira hei ki atu, Kia rite ki tau i mea ai ki toku papa, ki a Rawiri; i tukua mai hoki e koe he hita kia kawea mai mana, hei hanga i tetahi whare mona hei nohoanga, kia pera hoki tau ki ahau.

Behold, I build an house to the name of the LORD my God, to dedicate it to him, and to burn before him sweet incense, and for the continual shewbread, and for the burnt offerings morning and evening, on the sabbaths, and on the new moons, and on the solemn feasts of the LORD our God. This is an ordinance for ever to Israel.

Nana, ka hanga e ahau he whare mo te ingoa o Ihowa, o toku Atua, ka whakatapua mona, hei tahunga mo te whakakakara reka ki tona aroaro, mo te taro aroaro tuturu, mo nga tahunga tinana o te ata, o te ahiahi, o nga hapati, o nga kowhititanga marama, o nga hakari o Ihowa, o to matou Atua. He tikanga tenei ake ake ma Iharaira.

And the house which I build is great: for great is our God above all gods.

Na he nui te whare ka hanga nei e ahau; he nui hoki to matou Atua i nga atua katoa.

But who is able to build him an house, seeing the heaven and heaven of heavens cannot contain him? who am I then, that I should build him an house, save only to burn sacrifice before him?

Otira ko wai e ahei te hanga whare mona? kahore nei hoki e nui te rangi me te rangi o nga rangi hei nohoanga mona. Ko wai koai ahau hei hanga whare mona, heoi nei hei tahu whakakakara ki tona aroaro?

Send me now therefore a man cunning to work in gold, and in silver, and in brass, and in iron, and in purple, and crimson, and blue, and that can skill to grave with the cunning men that are with me in Judah and in Jerusalem, whom David my father did provide.

Tena, unga mai ki ahau tetahi tangata e mohio ana ki te mahi i te koura, i te hiriwa, i te parahi, i te rino, i te mea papura, whero, puru, e mohio ana ki te mahi i nga ahau whakairo katoa, hei hoa mo te hunga mohio i ahau nei, i a Hura, i Hiruha rama, mo te hunga i whakatuturia e toku papa, e Rawiri.

Send me also cedar trees, fir trees, and algum trees, out of Lebanon: for I know that thy servants can skill to cut timber in Lebanon; and, behold, my servants shall be with thy servants,

Tukua mai ano hoki ki ahau he rakau hita, he kauri, he aramuka i Repanona: e matau ana hoki ahau he hunga mohio au tangata ki te tapahi rakau i Repanona. Na ko aku tangata hei hoa mo au tangata,

Even to prepare me timber in abundance: for the house which I am about to build shall be wonderful great.

Hei whakapai rakau maku, kia maha; no te mea he nui te whare ka hanga nei e ahau, he mea ka miharotia.

And, behold, I will give to thy servants, the hewers that cut timber, twenty thousand measures of beaten wheat, and twenty thousand measures of barley, and twenty thousand baths of wine, and twenty thousand baths of oil.

Nana, ko taku e hoatu ai ki au tangata, ki nga kaitarai, ki nga kaitapahi i nga rakau, he witi, he mea patu, e rua tekau mano mehua, he parei e rua tekau mano mehua, he waina e rua tekau mano pati, he hinu e rua tekau mano pati.

Then Huram the king of Tyre answered in writing, which he sent to Solomon, Because the LORD hath loved his people, he hath made thee king over them.

Na ka whakautua e Hurama kingi o Taira, he mea tuhituhi, tukua ai e ia ki a Horomona, He aroha no Ihowa ki tana iwi i homai ai koe e ia hei kingi mo ratou.

Huram said moreover, Blessed be the LORD God of Israel, that made heaven and earth, who hath given to David the king a wise son, endued with prudence and understanding, that might build an house for the LORD, and an house for his kingdom.

I mea ano a Hurama, Kia whakapaingia a Ihowa, te Atua o Iharaira, nana nei i hanga te rangi me te whenua, nana hoki i homai ki a Kingi Rawiri he tama ngarahu tika, e hua ana ona whakaaro, tona mohio, hei hanga i te whare mo Ihowa, i te whare ano mo tona kingitanga.

And now I have sent a cunning man, endued with understanding, of Huram my father's,

Na kua unga atu nei e ahau tetahi tangata whakaaro, e hua ana tona mohio, na toku papa, na Hurama,

The son of a woman of the daughters of Dan, and his father was a man of Tyre, skilful to work in gold, and in silver, in brass, in iron, in stone, and in timber, in purple, in blue, and in fine linen, and in crimson; also to grave any manner of graving, and to find out every device which shall be put to him, with thy cunning men, and with the cunning men of my lord David thy father.

He tama na tetahi wahine o nga tamahine a Rana, ko tona papa he tangata no Taira, he mohio ki te mahi koura, hiriwa, parahi, rino, kohatu, rakau, papaura, puru, rinena pai, whero; ki te whakairo hoki i nga whakairo katoa, ki te whakatauria i nga whakaaro katoa e hoatu ki a ia; hei hoa mo au mea mohio, mo nga mea mohio ano hoki a toku ariki, a Rawiri, a tou papa.

Now therefore the wheat, and the barley, the oil, and the wine, which my lord hath spoken of, let him send unto his servants:

Na, ko te witi, ko te parei, ko te hinu, ko te waina, i korerotia mai na e toku ariki, mana e homai ki ana pononga;

And we will cut wood out of Lebanon, as much as thou shalt need: and we will bring it to thee in floats by sea to Joppa; and thou shalt carry it up to Jerusalem.

A ma matou e tapahi he rakau i Repanona, kia rite ki au e mea ai mau: ka whakatere atu ai ki a koe i te moana ki Hopa, a mau e taritari ki Hiruharama.

And Solomon numbered all the strangers that were in the land of Israel, after the numbering wherewith David his father had numbered them; and they were found an hundred and fifty thousand and three thousand and six hundred.

Na ka taua e Horomona nga tangata iwi ke i te whenua o Iharaira i muri i te tauanga i taua ai e tona papa e Rawiri; a ka kitea kotahi rau e rima tekau ma toru mano e ono rau.

And he set threescore and ten thousand of them to be bearers of burdens, and fourscore thousand to be hewers in the mountain, and three thousand and six hundred overseers to set the people a work.

A ka meinga etahi o ratou, e whitu tekau mano, hei kaipikau, e waru tekau mano ano hei tarai i runga i te maunga, e toru mano e ono rau hei kaitirotiro, hei whakamahi i te iwi.
