¹In the twenty-seventh year of Jeroboam king of Israel began Azariah son of Amaziah king of Judah to reign.

¹¶ 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.

²Sixteen years old was he when he began to reign; and he reigned fifty-two years in Jerusalem: and his mother’s name was Jecoliah of Jerusalem.

²Tekau 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.

³He did that which was right in the eyes of Yahweh, according to all that his father Amaziah had done.

³A i tika tana mahi ki te titiro a Ihowa, i rite ki nga mea katoa i mea ai a Amatia, tona papa.

⁴However the high places were not taken away: the people still sacrificed and burnt incense in the high places.

⁴Otiia kihai i whakakahoretia nga wahi tiketike: i patu whakahere tonu ano te iwi, i tahu whakakakara ki nga wahi tiketike.

⁵Yahweh struck the king, so that he was a leper to the day of his death, and lived in a separate house. Jotham the king’s son was over the household, judging the people of the land.

⁵Na 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.

⁶Now the rest of the acts of Azariah, and all that he did, aren’t they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?

⁶Na, 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?

⁷Azariah slept with his fathers; and they buried him with his fathers in the city of David: and Jotham his son reigned in his place.

⁷Na 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.

⁸In the thirty-eighth year of Azariah king of Judah, Zechariah the son of Jeroboam reigned over Israel in Samaria six months.

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.

⁹He did that which was evil in the sight of Yahweh, as his fathers had done: he didn’t depart from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, with which he made Israel to sin.

⁹A 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.

¹⁰Shallum the son of Jabesh conspired against him, and struck him before the people, and killed him, and reigned in his place.

¹⁰Na 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.

¹¹Now the rest of the acts of Zechariah, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.

¹¹Na, 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.

¹²This was the word of Yahweh which he spoke to Jehu, saying, “Your sons to the fourth generation shall sit on the throne of Israel.” So it came to pass.

¹²Ko 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.

¹³Shallum the son of Jabesh began to reign in the thirty-ninth year of Uzziah king of Judah; and he reigned for a month in Samaria.

¹³No 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.

¹⁴Menahem the son of Gadi went up from Tirzah, and came to Samaria, and struck Shallum the son of Jabesh in Samaria, and killed him, and reigned in his place.

¹⁴Na 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.

¹⁵Now the rest of the acts of Shallum, and his conspiracy which he made, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.

¹⁵Na, 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.

¹⁶Then Menahem struck Tiphsah, and all who were therein, and its borders, from Tirzah: because they didn’t open to him, therefore he struck it; and all the women therein who were with child he ripped up.

¹⁶Na 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.

¹⁷In the nine and thirtieth year of Azariah king of Judah, Menahem the son of Gadi began to reign over Israel for ten years in Samaria.

¹⁷No 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.

¹⁸He did that which was evil in the sight of Yahweh: he didn’t depart all his days from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, with which he made Israel to sin.

¹⁸A 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.

¹⁹There came against the land Pul the king of Assyria; and Menahem gave Pul one thousand talents of silver, that his hand might be with him to confirm the kingdom in his hand.

¹⁹Na 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.

²⁰Menahem exacted the money of Israel, even of all the mighty men of wealth, of each man fifty shekels of silver, to give to the king of Assyria. So the king of Assyria turned back, and didn’t stay there in the land.

²⁰Na 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.

²¹Now the rest of the acts of Menahem, and all that he did, aren’t they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?

²¹Na, 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?

²²Menahem slept with his fathers; and Pekahiah his son reigned in his place.

²²Na ka moe a Menaheme ki ona matua, a ko tana tama, ko Pekahia te kingi i muri i a ia.

²³In the fiftieth year of Azariah king of Judah Pekahiah the son of Menahem began to reign over Israel in Samaria for two years.

²³No 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.

²⁴He did that which was evil in the sight of Yahweh: he didn’t depart from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, with which he made Israel to sin.

²⁴A 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.

²⁵Pekah the son of Remaliah, his captain, conspired against him, and struck him in Samaria, in the castle of the king’s house, with Argob and Arieh; and with him were fifty men of the Gileadites: and he killed him, and reigned in his place.

²⁵Na 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.

²⁶Now the rest of the acts of Pekahiah, and all that he did, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.

²⁶Na, 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.

²⁷In the two and fiftieth year of Azariah king of Judah Pekah the son of Remaliah began to reign over Israel in Samaria for twenty years.

²⁷No 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.

²⁸He did that which was evil in the sight of Yahweh: he didn’t depart from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, with which he made Israel to sin.

²⁸A 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.

²⁹In the days of Pekah king of Israel came Tiglath Pileser king of Assyria, and took Ijon, and Abel Beth Maacah, and Janoah, and Kedesh, and Hazor, and Gilead, and Galilee, all the land of Naphtali; and he carried them captive to Assyria.

²⁹I 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.

³⁰Hoshea the son of Elah made a conspiracy against Pekah the son of Remaliah, and struck him, and killed him, and reigned in his place, in the twentieth year of Jotham the son of Uzziah.

³⁰Na 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.

³¹Now the rest of the acts of Pekah, and all that he did, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.

³¹Na, 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.

³²In the second year of Pekah the son of Remaliah king of Israel began Jotham the son of Uzziah king of Judah to reign.

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.

³³He was twenty-five years old when he began to reign; and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem: and his mother’s name was Jerusha the daughter of Zadok.

³³E 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.

³⁴He did that which was right in the eyes of Yahweh; he did according to all that his father Uzziah had done.

³⁴A i tika tana mahi ki te titiro a Ihowa, i rite ana mahi ki nga mea katoa a tona papa, a Utia.

³⁵However the high places were not taken away: the people still sacrificed and burned incense in the high places. He built the upper gate of the house of Yahweh.

³⁵Ko 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.

³⁶Now the rest of the acts of Jotham, and all that he did, aren’t they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?

³⁶Na, 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?

³⁷In those days Yahweh began to send against Judah Rezin the king of Syria, and Pekah the son of Remaliah.

³⁷I aua ra ka timata a Ihowa te unga i a Retini kingi o Hiria raua ko Peka tama a Remaria ki a Hura.

³⁸Jotham slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David his father: and Ahaz his son reigned in his place.

³⁸Na 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.
