1 Kings 15
Maori Bible
15 Na no te tekau ma waru o nga tau o Kingi Ieropoama tama a Nepata i kingi ai a Apiama ki a Hura.
2 E toru nga tau i kingi ai ia ki Hiruharama: a ko te ingoa o tona whaea ko Maaka, he tamahine na Apoharama.
3 Na i haere ia i runga i nga hara katoa i mea ai tona papa i mua atu i a ia: kihai hoki tona ngakau i tapatahi ki a Ihowa, ki tona Atua, kihai i rite ki te ngakau o tona tupuna, o Rawiri.
4 Otiia he whakaaro ki a Rawiri homai ana e Ihowa, e tona Atua he rama ki a ia i Hiruharama kia whakaarahia ake ai tana tama i muri i a ia, kia whakapumautia ai hoki a Hiruharama:
5 Mo Rawiri i mahi tika ki te aroaro o Ihowa, a kihai i peka ke i nga mea katoa i whakahaua ai ia i nga ra katoa i ora ai ia, ko te meatanga anake ki a Uria Hiti.
6 Na he whawhai ta Rehopoama raua ko Ieropoama ki a raua i nga ra katoa i ora ai ia.
7 Na, ko era atu meatanga a Apiama me ana mahi katoa, kahore ianei i tuhituhia ki te pukapuka o nga meatanga o nga ra o nga kingi o Hura? He whawhai hoki ta Apiama raua ko Ieropoama ki a raua.
8 Na kua moe a Apiama ki ona matua, a tanumia ana e ratou ki te pa o Rawiri. A ko tana tama, ko Aha te kingi i muri i a ia.
9 Na no te rua tekau o nga tau o Ieropoama kingi o Iharaira i kingi ai a Aha ki a Hura.
10 A e wha tekau ma tahi nga tau i kingi ai ia ki Hiruharama; ko te ingoa hoki o tona whaea, ko Maaka, he tamahine na Apoharama.
11 A tika tonu te mahi a Aha ki te aroaro o Ihowa, rite tonu ki ta tona tupuna, ki ta Rawiri.
12 I peia atu hoki e ia te hunga whakahoroma i te whenua, whakakorea atu ana e ia nga whakapakoko katoa i hanga e ona matua.
13 I whakamutua ano e ia te kuinitanga o Maaka, o tona whaea, mona i hanga whakapakoko wehi hei Ahera; tapatapahia iho hoki e Aha tana whakapakoko, tahuna ake ki te taha o te awa, o Kitirono.
14 Otiia kihai i whakakorea nga wahi tiketike. He ahakoa ra, i tapatahi te ngakau o Aha ki a Ihowa i ona ra katoa.
15 I kawea hoki e ia nga mea i whakatapua e tona papa, me ana mea ano i whakatapu ai, ki te whare o Ihowa, te hiriwa, te koura, me nga oko.
16 He whawhai hoki ta Aha ki a Paaha kingi o Iharaira i o raua ra katoa.
17 Na ka haere a Paaha kingi o Iharaira ki Hura, a hanga ana a Rama e ia, kia kaua ai tetahi e tukua kia haere atu, kia haere mai ki a Aha kingi o Hura.
18 Katahi ka tangohia katoatia e Aha te hiriwa me te koura i mahue o nga taonga o te whare o Ihowa, me nga taonga o te whare o te kingi, a hoatu ana ki nga ringa o nga tangata: a hoatu ana e Kingi Aha kia kawea ki a Peneharara tama a Taparimono, ta ma a Hetiono kingi o Hiria, i Ramahiku nei tona kainga; i mea ia,
19 He kawenata ta taua, ta toku papa raua ko tou papa: tena taku hakari mau te kawea atu na, he hiriwa, he koura; haere mai whakataka tau kawenata ki a Paaha kingi o Iharaira kia haere atu ai ia i toku taha.
20 Na rongo tonu a Peneharara ki a Kingi Aha, a unga ana e ia nga rangatira o ana ope ki nga pa o Iharaira, a patua iho e ia a Ihono, a Rana, a Apere Petemaaka, me Kinerota katoa, me te whenua katoa o Napatari.
21 Na, i te rongonga o Paaha, ka mutu tana hanga i Rama, a noho ana ki Tirita.
22 Katahi ka karanga nui a Kingi Aha puta noa i Hura; kihai tetahi i tukua noatia atu: a taria atu ana e ratou nga kohatu o Rama, me nga rakau o reira i hanga nei e Paaha, hei hanga ma Kingi Aha i Kepa o Pineamine, i Mihipa hoki.
23 Na, ko era atu meatanga katoa a Aha me ana mahi marohirohi, me nga mea katoa i mea ai ia, me nga pa i hanga e ia, kahore ianei i tuhituhia ki te pukapuka o nga meatanga o nga ra o nga kingi o Hura? Otiia i tona koroheketanga i mate ona waewae.
24 Na ka moe a Aha ki ona matua, a tanumia iho ki ona matua, ki te pa o tona tupuna, o Rawiri; a ko Iehohapata, ko tana tama te kingi i muri i a ia.
25 Na no te rua o nga tau o Aha kingi o Hura i kingi ai a Natapa tama a Ieropoama ki a Iharaira; a e rua nga tau i kingi ai ia ki a Iharaira.
26 A he kino tana mahi ki te aroaro o Ihowa; i haere hoki ia i te ara o tona matua, i tona hara i meinga ai e ia a Iharaira kia hara.
27 Na ka whakatupuria he he mona e Paaha tama a Ahia o te whare o Ihakara; a patua iho ia e Paaha ki Kipetono o nga Pirihitini; i te whakapae hoki a Natapa ratou ko Iharaira katoa i Kipetono.
28 Na, no te toru o nga tau o Aha kingi o Hura i patua ai ia e Paaha, a ko ia te kingi i muri i a ia.
29 A, kingi tahanga ia, na patua iho e ia te whare katoa o Ieropoama: kihai tetahi mea whai manawa o Ieropoama i mahue i a ia, poto rawa te huna; i rite tonu ki ta Ihowa kupu i korerotia e tana pononga, e Ahia Hironi:
30 Mo nga hara i hara ai a Ieropoama, i mea ai i a Iharaira kia hara; mo tana whakapataritari i whakapataritari ai ia i a Ihowa, i te Atua o Iharaira kia riri.
31 Na, ko era atu meatanga a Natapa me ana mahi katoa, kahore ianei i tuhituhia ki te pukapuka o nga meatanga o nga ra o nga kingi o Iharaira?
32 He whawhai hoki ta Aha raua ko Paaha kingi o Iharaira i o raua ra katoa.
33 No te toru o nga tau o Aha kingi o Hura i kingi ai a Paaha tama a Ahia ki a Iharaira katoa ki Tirita, e rua tekau ma wha nga tau i kingi ai.
34 A he kino tana mahi i te aroaro o Ihowa i haere hoki ia i te ara o Ieropoama, i tona hara i meinga ai e ia a Iharaira kia hara.

1 Kings 15
New International Version
Abijah King of Judah(A)
15 In the eighteenth year of the reign of Jeroboam son of Nebat, Abijah[a] became king of Judah, 2 and he reigned in Jerusalem three years. His mother’s name was Maakah(B) daughter of Abishalom.[b]
3 He committed all the sins his father had done before him; his heart was not fully devoted(C) to the Lord his God, as the heart of David his forefather had been. 4 Nevertheless, for David’s sake the Lord his God gave him a lamp(D) in Jerusalem by raising up a son to succeed him and by making Jerusalem strong. 5 For David had done what was right in the eyes of the Lord and had not failed to keep(E) any of the Lord’s commands all the days of his life—except in the case of Uriah(F) the Hittite.
6 There was war(G) between Abijah[c] and Jeroboam throughout Abijah’s lifetime. 7 As for the other events of Abijah’s reign, and all he did, are they not written in the book of the annals of the kings of Judah? There was war between Abijah and Jeroboam. 8 And Abijah rested with his ancestors and was buried in the City of David. And Asa his son succeeded him as king.
Asa King of Judah(H)(I)
9 In the twentieth year of Jeroboam king of Israel, Asa became king of Judah, 10 and he reigned in Jerusalem forty-one years. His grandmother’s name was Maakah(J) daughter of Abishalom.
11 Asa did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, as his father David(K) had done. 12 He expelled the male shrine prostitutes(L) from the land and got rid of all the idols(M) his ancestors had made. 13 He even deposed his grandmother Maakah(N) from her position as queen mother,(O) because she had made a repulsive image for the worship of Asherah. Asa cut it down(P) and burned it in the Kidron Valley. 14 Although he did not remove(Q) the high places, Asa’s heart was fully committed(R) to the Lord all his life. 15 He brought into the temple of the Lord the silver and gold and the articles that he and his father had dedicated.(S)
16 There was war(T) between Asa and Baasha king of Israel throughout their reigns. 17 Baasha king of Israel went up against Judah and fortified Ramah(U) to prevent anyone from leaving or entering the territory of Asa king of Judah.
18 Asa then took all the silver and gold that was left in the treasuries of the Lord’s temple(V) and of his own palace. He entrusted it to his officials and sent(W) them to Ben-Hadad(X) son of Tabrimmon, the son of Hezion, the king of Aram, who was ruling in Damascus. 19 “Let there be a treaty(Y) between me and you,” he said, “as there was between my father and your father. See, I am sending you a gift of silver and gold. Now break your treaty with Baasha king of Israel so he will withdraw from me.”
20 Ben-Hadad agreed with King Asa and sent the commanders of his forces against the towns of Israel. He conquered(Z) Ijon, Dan, Abel Beth Maakah and all Kinnereth in addition to Naphtali. 21 When Baasha heard this, he stopped building Ramah(AA) and withdrew to Tirzah.(AB) 22 Then King Asa issued an order to all Judah—no one was exempt—and they carried away from Ramah(AC) the stones and timber Baasha had been using there. With them King Asa(AD) built up Geba(AE) in Benjamin, and also Mizpah.(AF)
23 As for all the other events of Asa’s reign, all his achievements, all he did and the cities he built, are they not written in the book of the annals of the kings of Judah? In his old age, however, his feet became diseased. 24 Then Asa rested with his ancestors and was buried with them in the city of his father David. And Jehoshaphat(AG) his son succeeded him as king.
Nadab King of Israel
25 Nadab son of Jeroboam became king of Israel in the second year of Asa king of Judah, and he reigned over Israel two years. 26 He did evil(AH) in the eyes of the Lord, following the ways of his father(AI) and committing the same sin his father had caused Israel to commit.
27 Baasha son of Ahijah from the tribe of Issachar plotted against him, and he struck him down(AJ) at Gibbethon,(AK) a Philistine town, while Nadab and all Israel were besieging it. 28 Baasha killed Nadab in the third year of Asa king of Judah and succeeded him as king.
29 As soon as he began to reign, he killed Jeroboam’s whole family.(AL) He did not leave Jeroboam anyone that breathed, but destroyed them all, according to the word of the Lord given through his servant Ahijah the Shilonite. 30 This happened because of the sins(AM) Jeroboam had committed and had caused(AN) Israel to commit, and because he aroused the anger of the Lord, the God of Israel.
31 As for the other events of Nadab’s reign, and all he did, are they not written in the book of the annals(AO) of the kings of Israel? 32 There was war(AP) between Asa and Baasha king of Israel throughout their reigns.
Baasha King of Israel
33 In the third year of Asa king of Judah, Baasha son of Ahijah became king of all Israel in Tirzah,(AQ) and he reigned twenty-four years. 34 He did evil(AR) in the eyes of the Lord, following the ways of Jeroboam and committing the same sin Jeroboam had caused Israel to commit.
