2 Kings 15
Maori Bible
15 No te rua tekau ma whitu o nga tau o Ieropoama kingi o Iharaira i kingi ai a Ataria tama a Amatia, kingi o Hura.
2 Tekau ma ono ona tau i a ia ka kingi nei, a e rima tekau ma rua nga tau i kingi ai ia ki Hiruharama. A ko te ingoa o tona whaea ko Iekoria, no Hiruharama.
3 A i tika tana mahi ki te titiro a Ihowa, i rite ki nga mea katoa i mea ai a Amatia, tona papa.
4 Otiia kihai i whakakahoretia nga wahi tiketike: i patu whakahere tonu ano te iwi, i tahu whakakakara ki nga wahi tiketike.
5 Na pakia ana te kingi e Ihowa, a he repera ia a mate noa, a noho ana ia i te whare wehe ke. Na ko Iotama, ko te tama a te kingi, te rangatira o te whare, hei kaiwhakarite mo te iwi o te whenua.
6 Na, ko era atu meatanga a Ataria me ana mahi katoa, kihai ianei i tuhituhia ki te pukapuka o nga meatanga o nga ra o nga kingi o Hura?
7 Na ka moe a Ataria ki ona matua, a tanumia iho ki ona matua ki te pa o Rawiri; a ko Iotama, ko tana tama, te kingi i muri i a ia.
8 No te toru tekau ma waru o nga tau o Ataria kingi o Hura i kingi ai a Hakaraia tama a Ieropoama ki a Iharaira, ki Hamaria, e ono nga marama.
9 A he kino tana mahi ki te titiro a Ihowa, i rite ki ta ona matua i mea ai: kihai i mahue i a ia nga hara o Ieropoama tama a Nepata i hara ai a Iharaira.
10 Na ka whakatupu a Harumu tama a Iapehe i te he mona, a patua ana e ia i te aroaro o te iwi, whakamatea iho, a ko ia te kingi i muri i a ia.
11 Na, ko era atu meatanga a Hakaraia, nana, kua oti te tuhituhi ki te pukapuka o nga meatanga o nga ra o nga kingi o Iharaira.
12 Ko te kupu hoki tena a Ihowa i korero ai ia ki a Iehu, i mea ai, E wha nga whakatupuranga o au tama e noho ki te torona o Iharaira. Na koia rawa ano ia.
13 No te toru tekau ma iwa o nga tau o Utia kingi o Hura i kingi ai a Harumu tama a Iapehe, a kotahi tino marama i kingi ai ia ki Hamaria.
14 Na haere ake ana a Menaheme tama a Kari i Tirita, tae tonu ki Hamaria, patua iho e ia, a Harumu tama a Iapehe ki Hamaria, whakamatea iho; a ko ia te kingi i muri i a ia.
15 Na, ko era atu meatanga a Harumu me tana he i whakatupuria e ia, nana kua oti te tuhituhi ki te pukapuka o nga meatanga o nga ra o nga kingi o Iharaira.
16 Na ka patua e Menaheme a Tipiha me nga mea katoa i roto, me ona rohe katoa, o Tirita mai ano; mo ratou kihai i uaki ki a ia; koia i patua ai. Ripiripia ake hoki e ia nga wahine hapu katoa o reira.
17 No te toru tekau ma iwa o nga tau o Ataria kingi o Hura i kingi ai a Menaheme tama a Kari ki a Iharaira ki Hamaria, a kotahi tekau ona tau i kingi ai.
18 A he kino tana mahi ki te titiro a Ihowa. Kihai i mahue i a ia i ona ra katoa nga hara o Ieropoama tama a Nepata i mea nei i a Iharaira kia hara.
19 Na ka whakaekea te whenua e Puru kingi o Ahiria; a ka hoatu e Menaheme etahi taranata hiriwa kotahi mano ki a Puru, kia ai ai tona ringa hei awhina mona, kia u ai te kingitanga ki tona ringa.
20 Na tangohia ana e Menaheme te hiriwa i a Iharaira, i nga tangata taonga nui katoa, hei hoatu mana ki te kingi o Ahiria: e rima tekau hekere a tenei, a tenei. Na hoki ana te kingi o Ahiria, kihai hoki i noho ki taua whenua.
21 Na, ko era atu meatanga a Menaheme me ana mahi katoa, kahore ianei i tuhituhia ki te pukapuka o nga meatanga o nga ra o nga kingi o Iharaira?
22 Na ka moe a Menaheme ki ona matua, a ko tana tama, ko Pekahia te kingi i muri i a ia.
23 No te rima tekau o nga tau o Ataria kingi o Hura i kingi ai a Pekahia tama a Menaheme ki a Iharaira ki Hamaria, a e rua nga tau i kingi ai.
24 A he kino tana mahi ki te titiro a Ihowa: kihai hoki i mahue i a ia nga hara o Ieropoama tama a Nepata i hara ai a Iharaira.
25 Na ka whakatupuria he he mona e tetahi o ana rangatira, e Peka tama a Remaria, patua iho ia ki Hamaria ki te tino wahi o te whare o te kingi, ratou ko Arakopa, ko Arie, me ona hoa, nga Kireari, e rima tekau tangata. Na whakamatea ana ia e ia, ko ia ano te kingi i muri i a ia.
26 Na, ko era atu meatanga a Pekahia me ana mahi katoa, nana, kua oti te tuhituhi ki te pukapuka o nga meatanga o nga ra o nga kingi o Iharaira.
27 No te rima tekau ma rua o nga tau o Ataria kingi o Hura i kingi ai a Peka tama a Remaria ki a Iharaira ki Hamaria, a e rua tekau nga tau i kingi ai.
28 A he kino tana mahi ki te titiro a Ihowa; kihai i mahue i a ia nga hara o Ieropoama tama a Nepata i hara ai a Iharaira.
29 I nga ra o Peka kingi o Iharaira, ka haere mai a Tikirata Pirehere kingi o Ahiria, a riro ana i a ia a Iiono, a Apere Petemaaka, a Ianoa, a Kerehe, a Hatoro, a Kireara, a Kariri, te whenua katoa o Napatari, whakahekea atu ana ratou e ia ki Ahiri a.
30 Na ka whakatupu a Hohea tama a Eraha i te he mo Peka tama a Remaria, patua iho e ia, whakamatea iho; a ko ia te kingi i muri i a ia, i te rua tekau o nga tau o Iotama tama a Utia.
31 Na, ko era atu meatanga a Peka me ana mahi katoa, nana, kua oti te tuhituhi ki te pukapuka o nga meatanga o nga ra o nga kingi o Iharaira.
32 No te rua o nga tau o Peka tama a Remaria kingi o Iharaira i kingi ai a Iotama tama a Utia kingi o Hura.
33 E rua tekau ma rima ona tau i a ia ka kingi nei, a kotahi tekau ma ono nga tau i kingi ai ia ki Hiruharama. A ko te ingoa o tona whaea ko Ieruha, he tamahine na Haroko.
34 A i tika tana mahi ki te titiro a Ihowa, i rite ana mahi ki nga mea katoa a tona papa, a Utia.
35 Ko nga wahi tiketike ia kihai i whakakahoretia: i patu whakahere tonu te iwi, i tahu whakakakara ki nga wahi tiketike. Nana i hanga te kuwaha o runga o te whare o Ihowa.
36 Na, ko era atu meatanga a Iotama me ana mahi katoa, kahore ianei i tuhituhia ki te pukapuka o nga meatanga o nga ra o nga kingi o Hura?
37 I aua ra ka timata a Ihowa te unga i a Retini kingi o Hiria raua ko Peka tama a Remaria ki a Hura.
38 Na ka moe a Iotama ki ona matua, a tanumia iho ki ona matua ki te pa o tona tupuna, o Rawiri; a ko Ahata, ko tana tama, te kingi i muri i a ia.
2 Kings 15
New International Version
2 Kings 15
New International Version
Azariah King of Judah(A)
15 In the twenty-seventh year of Jeroboam king of Israel, Azariah[a](B) son of Amaziah king of Judah began to reign. 2 He was sixteen years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem fifty-two years. His mother’s name was Jekoliah; she was from Jerusalem. 3 He did what was right(C) in the eyes of the Lord, just as his father Amaziah had done. 4 The high places, however, were not removed; the people continued to offer sacrifices and burn incense there.
5 The Lord afflicted(D) the king with leprosy[b] until the day he died, and he lived in a separate house.[c](E) Jotham(F) the king’s son had charge of the palace(G) and governed the people of the land.
6 As for the other events of Azariah’s reign, and all he did, are they not written in the book of the annals of the kings of Judah? 7 Azariah rested(H) with his ancestors and was buried near them in the City of David. And Jotham(I) his son succeeded him as king.
Zechariah King of Israel
8 In the thirty-eighth year of Azariah king of Judah, Zechariah son of Jeroboam became king of Israel in Samaria, and he reigned six months. 9 He did evil(J) in the eyes of the Lord, as his predecessors had done. He did not turn away from the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat, which he had caused Israel to commit.
10 Shallum son of Jabesh conspired against Zechariah. He attacked him in front of the people,[d] assassinated(K) him and succeeded him as king. 11 The other events of Zechariah’s reign are written in the book of the annals(L) of the kings of Israel. 12 So the word of the Lord spoken to Jehu was fulfilled:(M) “Your descendants will sit on the throne of Israel to the fourth generation.”[e]
Shallum King of Israel
13 Shallum son of Jabesh became king in the thirty-ninth year of Uzziah king of Judah, and he reigned in Samaria(N) one month. 14 Then Menahem son of Gadi went from Tirzah(O) up to Samaria. He attacked Shallum son of Jabesh in Samaria, assassinated(P) him and succeeded him as king.
15 The other events of Shallum’s reign, and the conspiracy he led, are written in the book of the annals(Q) of the kings of Israel.
16 At that time Menahem, starting out from Tirzah, attacked Tiphsah(R) and everyone in the city and its vicinity, because they refused to open(S) their gates. He sacked Tiphsah and ripped open all the pregnant women.
Menahem King of Israel
17 In the thirty-ninth year of Azariah king of Judah, Menahem son of Gadi became king of Israel, and he reigned in Samaria ten years. 18 He did evil(T) in the eyes of the Lord. During his entire reign he did not turn away from the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat, which he had caused Israel to commit.
19 Then Pul[f](U) king of Assyria invaded the land, and Menahem gave him a thousand talents[g] of silver to gain his support and strengthen his own hold on the kingdom. 20 Menahem exacted this money from Israel. Every wealthy person had to contribute fifty shekels[h] of silver to be given to the king of Assyria. So the king of Assyria withdrew(V) and stayed in the land no longer.
21 As for the other events of Menahem’s reign, and all he did, are they not written in the book of the annals of the kings of Israel? 22 Menahem rested with his ancestors. And Pekahiah his son succeeded him as king.
Pekahiah King of Israel
23 In the fiftieth year of Azariah king of Judah, Pekahiah son of Menahem became king of Israel in Samaria, and he reigned two years. 24 Pekahiah did evil(W) in the eyes of the Lord. He did not turn away from the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat, which he had caused Israel to commit. 25 One of his chief officers, Pekah(X) son of Remaliah, conspired against him. Taking fifty men of Gilead with him, he assassinated(Y) Pekahiah, along with Argob and Arieh, in the citadel of the royal palace at Samaria. So Pekah killed Pekahiah and succeeded him as king.
26 The other events of Pekahiah’s reign, and all he did, are written in the book of the annals of the kings of Israel.
Pekah King of Israel
27 In the fifty-second year of Azariah king of Judah, Pekah(Z) son of Remaliah(AA) became king of Israel in Samaria, and he reigned twenty years. 28 He did evil in the eyes of the Lord. He did not turn away from the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat, which he had caused Israel to commit.
29 In the time of Pekah king of Israel, Tiglath-Pileser(AB) king of Assyria came and took Ijon,(AC) Abel Beth Maakah, Janoah, Kedesh and Hazor. He took Gilead and Galilee, including all the land of Naphtali,(AD) and deported(AE) the people to Assyria. 30 Then Hoshea(AF) son of Elah conspired against Pekah son of Remaliah. He attacked and assassinated(AG) him, and then succeeded him as king in the twentieth year of Jotham son of Uzziah.
31 As for the other events of Pekah’s reign, and all he did, are they not written in the book of the annals(AH) of the kings of Israel?
Jotham King of Judah(AI)
32 In the second year of Pekah son of Remaliah king of Israel, Jotham(AJ) son of Uzziah king of Judah began to reign. 33 He was twenty-five years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem sixteen years. His mother’s name was Jerusha daughter of Zadok. 34 He did what was right(AK) in the eyes of the Lord, just as his father Uzziah had done. 35 The high places,(AL) however, were not removed; the people continued to offer sacrifices and burn incense there. Jotham rebuilt the Upper Gate(AM) of the temple of the Lord.
36 As for the other events of Jotham’s reign, and what he did, are they not written in the book of the annals of the kings of Judah? 37 (In those days the Lord began to send Rezin(AN) king of Aram and Pekah son of Remaliah against Judah.) 38 Jotham rested with his ancestors and was buried with them in the City of David, the city of his father. And Ahaz his son succeeded him as king.
