1 Reis 16

1 Nā, ka puta te kupu a Ihowā ki a Iehu, tama a Hanani mō Paaha; i mea ia: 2 "Nāku nei koe i whakaara ake i roto i te puehu, ā, hoatu ana koe e ahau hei rangatira mō tāku iwi, mō Īharaira. Nā, haere ana koe i te ara o Ieropoama, ā, nāu i hara ai tāku iwi, a Īharaira, hei whakapātaritari i ahau, ki ō rātou hara; 3 nanā, ka mōtī i ahau ngā uri o Paaha, me ngā uri o tōna whare, ā, ka meinga tōu whare kia rite ki te whare o Ieropoama tama a Nēpata. 4 Ko te hunga o Paaha e mate ki te pā mā ngā kurī e kai, ko ngā mea hoki ōna e mate ki te pārae mā ngā manu o te rangi e kai."

5 Nā, ko ērā atu meatanga a Paaha me āna mahi, me tōna toa, kāhore ianei i tuhituhia ki te Pukapuka o ngā meatanga o Ngā Rā o Ngā Kīngi o Īharaira? 6 Nā, ka moe a Paaha ki ōna mātua, ā, tanumia iho ki Tirita; ā, ko Eraha, ko tāna tama te kīngi i muri i a ia.

7 I kawea anō e Iehu poropiti tama a Hanani te kupu a Ihowā mō Paaha rātou ko tōna whare, mō te kino katoa i meatia e ia ki te aroaro o Ihowā, mō tāna whakapātaritari i a ia ki ngā mahi a ōna ringa, mōna i rite ki te whare o Ieropoama, mō tāna patunga hoki i a ia.

Ko Kīngi Eraha o Īharaira

8 I te rua tekau mā ono o ngā tau o Aha kīngi o Hūrā ka kīngi a Eraha tama a Paaha ki a Īharaira ki Tirita, e rua ngā tau e kīngi ana.

9 Nā, ka whakatupuria he hē mōna e tāna tangata, e Tīmiri, rangatira o te hāwhe o ana hāriata.

Nā, i Tirita ia e inu ana, ā, haurangi iho, i roto i te whare o Arata kaitohutohu o tōna whare i Tirita. 10 Nā, haere ana a Tīmiri, patua iho ia, whakamatea iho i te rua tekau mā whitu o ngā tau o Aha kīngi o Hūrā, ā, ko ia te kīngi i muri i a ia.

11 Ā, ka kīngi nei ia, tōna nohoanga anō ki te torōna, patua iho e ia te whare katoa o Paaha; kīhai tētahi tamaiti tāne i mahue ki a ia, o ōna whanaunga, o ōna hoa aroha rānei. 12 Heoi, hunā ana e Tīmiri te whare katoa o Paaha; ko tā Ihowā kupu ia i kōrerotia e Iehu poropiti mō Paaha – 13 mō ngā hara katoa o Paaha, mō ngā hara o Eraha, o tāna tama i hara nei rāua, i hara ai a Īharaira, he whakapātaritari i a Ihowā, i te Atua o Īharaira ki ā rātou mea horihori.

14 Nā, ko ērā atu meatanga a Eraha me āna mahi katoa, kāhore ianei i tuhituhia ki te Pukapuka o ngā meatanga o Ngā Rā o Ngā Kīngi o Īharaira?

Ko Kīngi Tīmiri o Īharaira

15 Nō te rua tekau mā whitu o ngā tau o Aha kīngi o Hūrā i kīngi ai a Tīmiri ki Tirita, e whitu ngā rā. Nā, i te whakapae te iwi i Kipetono o ngā Pirihitini, 16 ā, ka rongo taua iwi i whakapae rā i te kōrero, kua whakatakoto hē a Tīmiri, kua patua hoki e ia te kīngi; heoi meinga ana e Īharaira katoa a Omori rangatira ope hei kīngi mō Īharaira i taua rā, i te puni. 17 Nā, haere atu ana a Omori i Kipetono, rātou ko Īharaira katoa, ā, whakapaea ana e rātou a Tirita. 18 Ā, nō te kitenga o Tīmiri ka horo te pā, nā, haere ana ia ki te wāhi pai rawa o te whare o te kīngi, ā, tahuna ana e ia ki te ahi te whare kīngi ki runga ki a ia, ā, mate iho – 19 mō ōna hara i hara ai, i tāna mahinga i te kino i te aroaro o Ihowā, i tōna haerenga i te ara o Ieropoama, ā, i tōna hara i hara ai, ā, hara iho a Īharaira.

20 Nā, ko ērā atu meatanga a Tīmiri me tāna hē i whakatupu ai ia, kāhore ianei i tuhituhia ki te Pukapuka o ngā meatanga o Ngā Rā o Ngā Kīngi o Īharaira?

Ko Kīngi Omori o Īharaira

21 Kātahi ka wāhia te iwi o Īharaira, kia rua ngā wāhi; ko tētahi hāwhe o te iwi i whai i a Tipini tama a Kinata, ko ia hei kīngi; ko tētahi hāwhe i whai i a Omori. 22 Otiia, i kaha ake te hunga i whai i a Omori i te hunga i whai i a Tipini tama a Kinata; heoi mate ana a Tipini, ā, ka kīngi ko Omori.

23 Nō te toru tekau mā tahi o ngā tau o Aha kīngi o Hūrā i kīngi ai a Omori ki a Īharaira, ā, kotahi tekau mā rua ōna tau i kīngi ai; e ono ngā tau i kīngi ai ki Tirita. 24 Nā, ka hokona e ia i a Hemere te pukepuke, a Hamaria, mō ngā taranata hiriwa e rua; ā, hanga ana ia ki runga ki te pukepuke, ā, huaina iho e ia te ingoa o te pā i hangā e ia ko Hamaria, ko te ingoa o Hemere, o te tangata nōna te puke.

25 Nā, kino ana te mahi a Omori ki te aroaro o Ihowā, kino atu i ā te katoa i mua atu i a ia. 26 I haere hoki ia i ngā ara katoa o Ieropoama tama a Nēpata, i ōna hara i mea ai ia i a Īharaira kia hara, kia whakapātaritari i a Ihowā, i te Atua o Īharaira ki ā rātou mea horihori.

27 Nā, ko ērā atu meatanga a Omori i mea ai ia me āna mahi toa, kāhore ianei i tuhituhia ki te Pukapuka o ngā meatanga o Ngā Rā o Ngā Kīngi o Īharaira? 28 Nā, ka moe a Omori ki ōna mātua, ā, tanumia iho ki Hamaria; ā, ko tāna tama, ko Āhapa te kīngi i muri i a ia.

Ko Kīngi Āhapa o Īharaira

29 Nō te toru tekau mā waru o ngā tau o Aha kīngi o Hūrā, i kīngi ai a Āhapa tama a Omori ki a Īharaira; ā, e rua tekau mā rua ngā tau i kīngi ai a Āhapa tama a Omori ki a Īharaira ki Hamaria.

30 Nā, i mahia e Āhapa tama a Omori te kino i te tirohanga a Ihowā, hira atu i ā te katoa i mua atu i a ia. 31 Nā, me te mea nei he mea māmā ki a ia te haere i runga i ngā hara o Ieropoama tama a Nēpata, ka tango ia i a Ietēpere, tamāhine a Etepāra kīngi o ngā Haironi, hei wahine māna; ā, haere ana, mahi ana ki a Paara, koropiko ana ki a ia. 32 I whakaarahia e ia tētahi āta mō Paara i roto i te whare o Paara i hangā nei e ia ki Hamaria. 33 Nā, hangā ana e Āhapa te Āherea, ā, nui atu tā Āhapa i mea ai hei whakapātaritari mō Ihowā, mō te Atua o Īharaira i tā ngā kīngi katoa o Īharaira i mua i a ia.

34 Nō ōna rā ka hangā Heriko e Hiere o Pētēre; ko tāna mātāmua, ko Āpirama, te pāpā i te tīmatanga o te whakatūranga, ā, ko tāna whakaotinga, ko Hekupu, te pāpā i te whakanohoanga o ngā tatau; ko tā Ihowā kupu ia i kōrerotia e Hohua tama a Nunu.

1 And the word of Jehovah came to Jehu the son of Hanani against Baasha, saying, 2 Forasmuch as I exalted thee out of the dust, and made thee prince over my people Israel, and thou hast walked in the way of Jeroboam, and hast made my people Israel to sin, to provoke me to anger with their sins; 3 behold, I will utterly sweep away Baasha and his house; and I will make thy house like the house of Jeroboam the son of Nebat. 4 Him that dieth of Baasha in the city shall the dogs eat; and him that dieth of his in the field shall the birds of the heavens eat.

5 Now the rest of the acts of Baasha, and what he did, and his might, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel? 6 And Baasha slept with his fathers, and was buried in Tirzah; and Elah his son reigned in his stead. 7 And moreover by the prophet Jehu the son of Hanani came the word of Jehovah against Baasha, and against his house, both because of all the evil that he did in the sight of Jehovah, to provoke him to anger with the work of his hands, in being like the house of Jeroboam, and because he smote him.

8 In the twenty and sixth year of Asa king of Judah began Elah the son of Baasha to reign over Israel in Tirzah, and reigned two years. 9 And his servant Zimri, captain of half his chariots, conspired against him. Now he was in Tirzah, drinking himself drunk in the house of Arza, who was over the household in Tirzah: 10 and Zimri went in and smote him, and killed him, in the twenty and seventh year of Asa king of Judah, and reigned in his stead. 11 And it came to pass, when he began to reign, as soon as he sat on his throne, that he smote all the house of Baasha: he left him not a single man-child, neither of his kinsfolks, nor of his friends. 12 Thus did Zimri destroy all the house of Baasha, according to the word of Jehovah, which he spake against Baasha by Jehu the prophet, 13 for all the sins of Baasha, and the sins of Elah his son, which they sinned, and wherewith they made Israel to sin, to provoke Jehovah, the God of Israel, to anger with their vanities. 14 Now the rest of the acts of Elah, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?

15 In the twenty and seventh year of Asa king of Judah did Zimri reign seven days in Tirzah. Now the people were encamped against Gibbethon, which belonged to the Philistines. 16 And the people that were encamped heard say, Zimri hath conspired, and hath also smitten the king: wherefore all Israel made Omri, the captain of the host, king over Israel that day in the camp. 17 And Omri went up from Gibbethon, and all Israel with him, and they besieged Tirzah. 18 And it came to pass, when Zimri saw that the city was taken, that he went into the castle of the king’s house, and burnt the king’s house over him with fire, and died, 19 for his sins which he sinned in doing that which was evil in the sight of Jehovah, in walking in the way of Jeroboam, and in his sin which he did, to make Israel to sin. 20 Now the rest of the acts of Zimri, and his treason that he wrought, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?

21 Then were the people of Israel divided into two parts: half of the people followed Tibni the son of Ginath, to make him king; and half followed Omri. 22 But the people that followed Omri prevailed against the people that followed Tibni the son of Ginath: so Tibni died, and Omri reigned. 23 In the thirty and first year of Asa king of Judah began Omri to reign over Israel, and reigned twelve years: six years reigned he in Tirzah. 24 And he bought the hill Samaria of Shemer for two talents of silver; and he built on the hill, and called the name of the city which he built, after the name of Shemer, the owner of the hill, Samaria. 25 And Omri did that which was evil in the sight of Jehovah, and dealt wickedly above all that were before him. 26 For he walked in all the way of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, and in his sins wherewith he made Israel to sin, to provoke Jehovah, the God of Israel, to anger with their vanities. 27 Now the rest of the acts of Omri which he did, and his might that he showed, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel? 28 So Omri slept with his fathers, and was buried in Samaria; and Ahab his son reigned in his stead.

29 And in the thirty and eighth year of Asa king of Judah began Ahab the son of Omri to reign over Israel: and Ahab the son of Omri reigned over Israel in Samaria twenty and two years. 30 And Ahab the son of Omri did that which was evil in the sight of Jehovah above all that were before him. 31 And it came to pass, as if it had been a light thing for him to walk in the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, that he took to wife Jezebel the daughter of Ethbaal king of the Sidonians, and went and served Baal, and worshipped him. 32 And he reared up an altar for Baal in the house of Baal, which he had built in Samaria. 33 And Ahab made the Asherah; and Ahab did yet more to provoke Jehovah, the God of Israel, to anger than all the kings of Israel that were before him. 34 In his days did Hiel the Beth-elite build Jericho: he laid the foundation thereof with the loss of Abiram his first-born, and set up the gates thereof with the loss of his youngest son Segub, according to the word of Jehovah, which he spake by Joshua the son of Nun.
