2 Kings 12
Maori Bible
12 No te whitu o nga tau o Iehu i kingi ai a Iehoaha; a e wha tekau ona tau i kingi ai ia ki Hiruharama: a, ko te ingoa o tona whaea, ko Tipia o Peerehepa.
2 A tika tonu nga mahi a Iehoaha ki te titiro a Ihowa i ona ra katoa i akona ai ia e Iehoiara tohunga.
3 Ko nga wahi tiketike ia kihai i whakakahoretia; i patu whakahere tonu te iwi, i tahu whakakakara ki runga ki nga wahi tiketike.
4 Na i mea a Iehoaha ki nga tohunga, Ko te moni katoa o nga mea e whakatapua ana, e kawea ana ki te whare o Ihowa, ko te moni o nga tangata e haere atu ana i te tauanga, ko te moni e whakaritea ai tera, tera, ko nga moni katoa e puta ake i roto i t e ngakau o tetahi kia kawea mai ki roto ki te whare o Ihowa,
5 Me tango mai e nga tohunga, e tera, e tera i tana tangata i mohio ai: a ma ratou e hanga nga wahi pakaru o te whare i nga wahi katoa e kitea ai he pakaru.
6 I te rua tekau ma toru ia o nga tau o Kingi Iehoaha kahore ano i hanga nga wahi pakaru o te whare e nga tohunga.
7 Katahi ka karanga a Kingi Iehoaha ki a Iehoiara tohunga, ki era atu tohunga hoki, a ka mea ki a ratou, He aha koutou te hanga ai i nga wahi pakaru o te whare? Na kati koutou te tango moni i a koutou tangata i mohio ai, engari me homai mo nga wahi pakaru o te whare.
8 Na whakaae ana nga tohunga kia kaua ratou e tango moni mai ano i te iwi, kia kaua hoki e hanga i nga wahi pakaru o te whare.
9 Otiia i mau a Iehoiara tohunga ki tetahi pouaka, a pokaia ana e ia he kohao ki tona taupoki, whakatakotoria ana ki te taha o te aata, ki te taha ki matau, i te mea ka haere tetahi ki te whare o Ihowa: a tukua iho ana ki roto e nga tohunga tiaki o te tatau nga moni katoa i kawea mai ki te whare o Ihowa.
10 A, ka kitea kua nui te moni i roto i te pouaka, na ka haere te kaituhituhi a te kingi raua ko te tino tohunga, ka whaowhina ki roto ki nga peeke, a taua ana te moni i kitea i roto i te whare o Ihowa.
11 Na hoatu ana e ratou te moni i paunatia ra ki nga ringa o nga kaimahi i te mahi, o nga kaitohutohu i te whare o Ihowa: a na ratou i utu atu ki nga kamura, ki nga kaihanga i mahia ai te whare o Ihowa,
12 Ki nga kaimahi kohatu, ki nga kaitarai kohatu; hei hoko ano i nga rakau, i nga kohatu tarai, hei hanga mo nga wahi pakaru o te whare o Ihowa, hei utu hoki mo nga mea katoa i riro hei hanga mo te whare.
13 Otiia kihai i hanga mo te whare o Ihowa he kapu hiriwa, he kuku, he peihana, he tetere, he oko koura, he oko hiriwa, ki te moni i kawea mai ki te whare o Ihowa:
14 I hoatu hoki ki nga kaimahi i te mahi, hei hanga i nga wahi pakaru o te whare o Ihowa.
15 Kihai hoki i uiuia nga meatanga a aua tangata i hoatu nei e ratou te moni ki o ratou ringa kia hoatu ki nga kaimahi i te mahi; he pono hoki ta ratou mahi.
16 Ko te moni mo te he, me te moni mo te hara, kihai i kawea mai e ratou ki te whare o Ihowa: i nga tohunga tena.
17 Katahi ka haere a Hataere kingi o Hiria, whawhai ana ki Kata, a horo ana i a ia: na ka anga te kanohi o Hataere, ka mea ki te haere ki runga, ki Hiruharama.
18 Na ka mau a Iehoaha kingi o Hura ki nga mea tapu katoa i whakatapua e ona matua, e Iehohapata, e Iehorama, e Ahatia, e nga kingi o Hura, ki ana mea tapu ano, ki te koura katoa i kitea i roto i nga toa taonga o te whare o Ihowa, o te whare hoki o te kingi, a tukua ana ki a Hataere kingi o Hiria: a haere atu ana ia i Hiruharama.
19 Na, ko era atu meatanga a Ioaha me ana mahi katoa, kahore ianei i tuhituhia ki te pukapuka o nga meatanga o nga ra o nga kingi o Hura?
20 Na ka whakatika ana tangata, a whakatupuria ana e ratou he he mona, a patua iho a Ioaha ki te whare o Miro i te heketanga iho ki Hira.
21 Na ana tangata hoki, na Iotaka tama a Himeata raua ko Iehotapara tama a Homere ia i patu, a mate iho; na tanumia ana ia ki ona matua ki te pa o Rawiri: a ko Amatia, ko tana tama, te kingi i muri i a ia.

Joash Repairs the Temple(A)
12 [a]In the seventh year of Jehu, Joash[b](B) became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem forty years. His mother’s name was Zibiah; she was from Beersheba. 2 Joash did what was right(C) in the eyes of the Lord all the years Jehoiada the priest instructed him. 3 The high places,(D) however, were not removed; the people continued to offer sacrifices and burn incense there.
4 Joash said to the priests, “Collect(E) all the money that is brought as sacred offerings(F) to the temple of the Lord—the money collected in the census,(G) the money received from personal vows and the money brought voluntarily(H) to the temple. 5 Let every priest receive the money from one of the treasurers, then use it to repair(I) whatever damage is found in the temple.”
6 But by the twenty-third year of King Joash the priests still had not repaired the temple. 7 Therefore King Joash summoned Jehoiada the priest and the other priests and asked them, “Why aren’t you repairing the damage done to the temple? Take no more money from your treasurers, but hand it over for repairing the temple.” 8 The priests agreed that they would not collect any more money from the people and that they would not repair the temple themselves.
9 Jehoiada the priest took a chest and bored a hole in its lid. He placed it beside the altar, on the right side as one enters the temple of the Lord. The priests who guarded the entrance(J) put into the chest all the money(K) that was brought to the temple of the Lord. 10 Whenever they saw that there was a large amount of money in the chest, the royal secretary(L) and the high priest came, counted the money that had been brought into the temple of the Lord and put it into bags. 11 When the amount had been determined, they gave the money to the men appointed to supervise the work on the temple. With it they paid those who worked on the temple of the Lord—the carpenters and builders, 12 the masons and stonecutters.(M) They purchased timber and blocks of dressed stone for the repair of the temple of the Lord, and met all the other expenses of restoring the temple.
13 The money brought into the temple was not spent for making silver basins, wick trimmers, sprinkling bowls, trumpets or any other articles of gold(N) or silver for the temple of the Lord; 14 it was paid to the workers, who used it to repair the temple. 15 They did not require an accounting from those to whom they gave the money to pay the workers, because they acted with complete honesty.(O) 16 The money from the guilt offerings(P) and sin offerings[c](Q) was not brought into the temple of the Lord; it belonged(R) to the priests.
17 About this time Hazael(S) king of Aram went up and attacked Gath and captured it. Then he turned to attack Jerusalem. 18 But Joash king of Judah took all the sacred objects dedicated by his predecessors—Jehoshaphat, Jehoram and Ahaziah, the kings of Judah—and the gifts he himself had dedicated and all the gold found in the treasuries of the temple of the Lord and of the royal palace, and he sent(T) them to Hazael king of Aram, who then withdrew(U) from Jerusalem.
19 As for the other events of the reign of Joash, and all he did, are they not written in the book of the annals of the kings of Judah? 20 His officials(V) conspired against him and assassinated(W) him at Beth Millo,(X) on the road down to Silla. 21 The officials who murdered him were Jozabad son of Shimeath and Jehozabad son of Shomer. He died and was buried with his ancestors in the City of David. And Amaziah his son succeeded him as king.
