Etera 7 - Maori Bible 2012(MRI2012)

Ka Tae mai a Etera ki Hiruhārama

1I muri i ēnei mea, i te kīngitanga o Arataherehe kīngi o Pahia, nā, ko Etera tama a Heraia, tama a Atāria, tama a Hirikia,

2tama a Harumu, tama a Hāroko, tama a Ahitupu,

3tama a Amaria, tama a Atāria, tama a Meraioto,

4tama a Terahia, tama a Uti, tama a Puki,

5tama a Apīhua, tama a Pinehaha, tama a Ereātara, tama a Ārona tino tohunga –

6i haere mai tēnei Etera i Papurōna. Nā, he karaipi kakama ia ki te ture a Mohi i hōmai nei e Ihowā, e te Atua o Īharaira. I runga anō i a ia te ringa o Ihowā, o tōna Atua, ā, hōmai ana e te kīngi ki a ia ngā mea katoa i tonoa e ia.

7Nā, i haere mai anō ētahi o ngā tama a Īharaira, nō ngā tohunga hoki o ngā Rīwaiti, o ngā kaiwaiata, o ngā kaitiaki kēti, o ngā Netinimi, ki Hiruhārama i te whitu o ngā tau o Kīngi Arataherehe.

8Nā, kua tae ia ki Hiruhārama i te rima o ngā marama o te whitu o ngā tau o te kīngi.

9Nō te tuatahi hoki o ngā rā o te marama tuatahi i tīmata ai ia te haere mai i Papurōna, ā, nō te tuatahi o ngā rā o te rima o ngā marama i tae mai ai ki Hiruhārama, i runga hoki i a ia te ringa pai o tōna Atua.

10I whakatikaia hoki e Etera tōna ngākau ki te rapu i te Ture a Ihowā, ki te mahi anō hoki, ā, ki te whakaako i a Īharaira ki ngā tikanga, ki ngā whakaritenga.

Tā Arataherehe Pānui ki a Etera

11Nā, ko ngā kupu tēnei o te pukapuka i hōmai e Kīngi Arataherehe ki te tohunga, ki te karaipi ki a Etera; he karaipi ia nō ngā kupu o ngā whakahau a Ihowā, nō āna tikanga hoki ki a Īharaira:

12Nā Arataherehe kīngi o ngā kīngi

ki te tohunga, ki a Etera, ki te karaipi o te ture a te Atua o te rangi, he tino tika, he aha atu.

13Ko tāku tikanga tēnei ka whakatakotoria nei; nā, ko te hunga katoa o te iwi o Īharaira, o ōna tohunga hoki, o ngā Rīwaiti i tōku kīngitanga e whai ngākau ana kia haere ki Hiruhārama, me haere tahi me koe.

14He mea unga nā hoki koe nā te kīngi rātou ko āna kaiwhakatakoto whakaaro tokowhitu, ki te ui i ngā mea o Hūrā, o Hiruhārama, kia rite ai ki te ture a tōu Atua i tōu ringa nā.

15Ki te kawe anō i te hiriwa, i te kōura i hoatu noa nei e te kīngi, rātou ko āna kaiwhakatakoto whakaaro ki te Atua o Īharaira, kei Hiruhārama nei tōna nohoanga,

16i te hiriwa katoa anō, i te kōura e kitea e koe i te kāwanatanga katoa o Papurōna, i ngā mea hōmai noa anō a te iwi, a ngā tohunga, a te hunga e hōmai noa ana mō te whare o tō rātou Atua i Hiruhārama.

17Nā, kia hohoro koe te hoko ki tēnei moni he pūru, he hipi toa, he reme, he whakahere totokore, me ngā ringihanga, ka whakaeke ai ki runga ki te āta o te whare o tō koutou Atua i Hiruhārama.

18Nā, ko tā koutou ko ōu tēina e pai ai mō te toenga o te hiriwa, o te kōura, meatia, kia rite ki tā tō koutou Atua e pai ai.

19Ā, ko ngā oko ka hoatu nei ki a koe mō ngā mahi o te whare o tōu Atua, me hoatu e koe ki te aroaro o te Atua i Hiruhārama.

20Ā, ko ērā atu mea e meatia ana e koe mō te whare o tōu Atua, e tika ana kia hoatu e koe, hoatu i roto i te whare taonga o te kīngi.

21Nā, tēnei ahau, a Kīngi Arataherehe te whakatakoto nei i te tikanga ki ngā kaitiaki taonga katoa i tāwāhi o te awa: Nā, ko ngā mea katoa e tonoa i a koutou e Etera tohunga, e te karaipi o te ture a te Atua o te rangi, kia hohoro te mea,

22ahakoa kotahi rau taranata hiriwa, ahakoa kotahi rau mēhua wīti, ahakoa kotahi rau pāti wāina, ahakoa kotahi rau pāti hinu; me te tote anō, e kore tōna taimaha e tuhituhia.

23Ko ngā mea katoa e kīia mai ana e te Atua o te rangi, me mahi kia tino rite mō te whare o te Atua o te rangi; he aha oti kia ai ai he riri mai ki te kīngitanga o te kīngi rātou ko āna tama?

24Kia mōhio anō koutou; ko ngā tohunga katoa, ko ngā Rīwaiti, ko ngā kaiwaiata, ko ngā kaitiaki kēti, ko ngā Netinimi, ko ngā kaimahi o tēnei whare o te Atua, e kore e tika kia tangohia he takoha taonga, he takoha tāngata, he takoha huarahi i a rātou.

25Nā māu, e Etera, kei a koe nā hoki te mōhio o te Atua, māu e whakarite ngā kaiwhakarite, ngā kaiwhakarongo totohe, hei whakarite mō ngā iwi katoa i tērā taha o te awa, hei te hunga katoa e mōhio ana ki ngā ture a tōu Atua; nā, ko te hunga kāhore e mōhio, mā koutou e whakaako.

26Ā, ko te tangata e kore e mahi i te ture a tōu Atua, i te ture anō a te kīngi, kia hohoro te whakapā o te whiu ki a ia, te whakamate rānei, te pei rānei he whenua kē, me tango rānei āna taonga, me here rānei.

Ka Whakamoemititia a Ihowā e Etera

27Kia whakapaingia a Ihowā, te Atua o ō tātou mātua, nāna nei i hōmai te whakaaro pēnei ki te ngākau o te kīngi, arā kia whakapaia te whare o Ihowā i Hiruhārama;

28nāna hoki i whakaputa aroha mai ki ahau i te aroaro o te kīngi rātou ko āna kaiwhakatakoto whakaaro, o ngā rangatira rarahi anō a te kīngi. Nā, kua whai kaha ahau; i runga hoki i ahau te ringa o Ihowā, o tōku Atua, nā, ka huihuia e ahau ētahi tino tāngata i roto i a Īharaira, hei hoa haere mōku ki runga.
