¹It happened at the end of twenty years, in which Solomon had built the house of Yahweh, and his own house,

¹¶ Na, i te mutunga o nga tau e rua tekau i hanga ai e Horomona te whare o Ihowa, me tona whare ake,

²that the cities which Huram had given to Solomon, Solomon built them, and caused the children of Israel to dwell there.

²Ka hanga e Horomona nga pa i homai e Hurama ki a Horomona, a whakanohoia ana e ia nga tama a Iharaira ki reira.

³Solomon went to Hamath Zobah, and prevailed against it.

³Na haere ana a Horomona ki Hamatatopa, hinga ana a reira i a ia.

⁴He built Tadmor in the wilderness, and all the storage cities, which he built in Hamath.

⁴I hanga ano e ia a Taramoro i te koraha, me nga pa taonga katoa i hanga nei e ia ki Hamata.

⁵Also he built Beth Horon the upper, and Beth Horon the lower, fortified cities, with walls, gates, and bars;

⁵I hanga ano e ia a Petehorono ki runga, me Petehorono ano ki raro; he pa kapi tonu i te taiepa, i te keti, i te tutaki;

⁶and Baalath, and all the storage cities that Solomon had, and all the cities for his chariots, and the cities for his horsemen, and all that Solomon desired to build for his pleasure in Jerusalem, and in Lebanon, and in all the land of his dominion.

⁶Me Paarata, me nga pa taonga katoa a Horomona, me nga pa hariata, me nga pa hoia eke hoiho, me nga mea katoa i hiahia ai a Horomona kia hanga ki Hiruharama, ki Repanona, ki te whenua katoa o tona kingitanga.

⁷As for all the people who were left of the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites, who were not of Israel;

⁷Ko te hunga katoa i mahue o nga Hiti, o nga Amori, o nga Perihi, o nga Hiwi, o nga Iepuhi, ehara nei i a Iharaira;

⁸of their children who were left after them in the land, whom the children of Israel didn’t consume, of them Solomon conscripted forced labor to this day.

⁸Ko a ratou tama i toe i muri i a ratou ki te whenua, he mea kihai i ngaro i nga tama a Iharaira, meinga ana ratou e Horomona hei homai takoha a mohoa noa nei.

⁹But of the children of Israel, Solomon made no servants for his work; but they were men of war, and chief of his captains, and rulers of his chariots and of his horsemen.

⁹Ko nga tama ia a Iharaira, kihai o ratou i meinga e Horomona hei pononga mo tana mahi; engari hei tangata whawhai ratou, hei rangatira mo ana rangatira, hei rangatira ano mo ana hariata, mo ana hoia eke hoiho.

¹⁰These were the chief officers of king Solomon, even two-hundred fifty, who ruled over the people.

¹⁰A ko nga rangatira ano enei o nga kaitohutohu a Kingi Horomona, e rua rau e rima tekau, hei rangatira mo te iwi.

¹¹Solomon brought up the daughter of Pharaoh out of the city of David to the house that he had built for her; for he said, “My wife shall not dwell in the house of David king of Israel, because the places where the ark of Yahweh has come are holy.”

¹¹I kawea atu hoki e Horomona te tamahine a Parao i te pa o Rawiri ki te whare i hanga e ia mona. I mea hoki ia, Kaua taku wahine e noho ki te whare o Rawiri kingi o Iharaira; he tapu hoki nga wahi i tae ai te aaka a Ihowa.

¹²Then Solomon offered burnt offerings to Yahweh on the altar of Yahweh, which he had built before the porch,

¹²¶ Na ka whakaekea e Horomona he tahunga tinana ma Ihowa ki runga ki te aata a Ihowa i hanga nei e ia ki mua i te whakamahau.

¹³even as the duty of every day required, offering according to the commandment of Moses, on the Sabbaths, and on the new moons, and on the set feasts, three times in the year, in the feast of unleavened bread, and in the feast of weeks, and in the feast of tents.

¹³Ko te mea o tenei ra, o tenei ra; rite tonu te whakaeke ki ta Mohi i whakahau ai, i nga hapati, i nga kowhititanga marama, i nga hakari nunui, e toru nga meatanga i te tau, ara i te hakari taro rewenakore, i te hakari o nga wiki, i te hakari wha re tihokahoka.

¹⁴He appointed, according to the ordinance of David his father, the divisions of the priests to their service, and the Levites to their offices, to praise, and to minister before the priests, as the duty of every day required; the doorkeepers also by their divisions at every gate: for so had David the man of God commanded.

¹⁴I whakaritea ano e ia ta tona papa, ta Rawiri, mo nga wehenga o nga tohunga ki ta ratou mahi, mo nga Riwaiti ki ta ratou mahi, ki te whakamoemiti, ki te minita ki te aroaro o nga tohunga, ki nga meatanga o tenei ra, o tenei ra: mo nga kaitiaki k uwaha ano, mo o ratou wehenga ki nga kuwaha; ko te mea hoki tena i whakahaua e Rawiri, e ta te Atua tangata.

¹⁵They didn’t depart from the commandment of the king to the priests and Levites concerning any matter, or concerning the treasures.

¹⁵Kihai hoki ratou i peka ke i te whakahau a te kingi ki nga tohunga, ki nga Riwaiti, mo nga mea katoa, mo nga taonga.

¹⁶Now all the work of Solomon was prepared to the day of the foundation of the house of Yahweh, and until it was finished. So the house of Yahweh was completed.

¹⁶Na kua rite te mahi katoa a Horomona tae rawa ake te ra i tu ai te whare o Ihowa, taea noatia tona otinga. Na kua tino oti te whare o Ihowa.

¹⁷Then went Solomon to Ezion Geber, and to Eloth, on the seashore in the land of Edom.

¹⁷Katahi a Horomona ka haere ki Ehiono Kepere, ki Eroto, ki te taha o te moana i te whenua o Eroma.

¹⁸Huram sent him ships and servants who had knowledge of the sea by the hands of his servants; and they came with the servants of Solomon to Ophir, and fetched from there four hundred fifty talents of gold, and brought them to king Solomon.

¹⁸Na ka unga mai e Hurama ana tangata ki a ia hei kawe mai i nga kaipuke me etahi tangata e mohio ana ki te moana; a rere ana ratou ko nga tangata a Horomona ki Opira, tangohia ana e ratou he koura e wha rau e rima tekau taranata, kawea ana ki a K ingi Horomona.
