Maori Bible
21 Kotahi tekau ma rua nga tau o Manahi i tona kingitanga, a e rima tekau ma rima nga tau i kingi ai ia ki Hiruharama; a ko te ingoa o tona whaea ko Hepetipa.
2 A he kino tana mahi ki te titiro a Ihowa, i rite tonu ki nga mea whakarihariha a nga tauiwi i peia nei e Ihowa i te aroaro o nga tama a Iharaira.
3 I hanga ano hoki e ia nga wahi tiketike i whakakorea ra e Hetekia, e tona papa i whakaarahia ake ana e ia he aata ki a Paara, hanga ana e ia he Ahera, pera ana me ta Ahapa kingi o Iharaira i mea ai, a koropiko ana ki te ope katoa o te rangi, mahi ana ki a ratou.
4 I hanga hoki e ia etahi aata ki te whare o Ihowa, ki ta Ihowa i ki ra, Ko Hiruharama hei waihotanga mo toku ingoa.
5 I hanga ano e ia etahi aata mo te ope katoa o te rangi ki nga marae e rua o te whare o Ihowa.
6 A meatia ana e ia tana tama kia tika na waenganui i te ahi, rapua ana e ia he tohu i nga kapua, i nga nakahi, i whai hoki ia ki nga atua maori, ki nga mata maori; nui atu tana kino i mahi ai ki te titiro a Ihowa hei whakapataritari i a ia.
7 A i whakaturia e ia he whakapakoko no Ahera, i mahia e ia ki te whare i ki ra a Ihowa ki a Rawiri raua ko tana tama ko Horomona, Hei tenei whare, hei Hiruharama i whiriwhiria nei e ahau i roto i nga iwi katoa o Iharaira ahau waiho ai i toku ingoa a ake ake.
8 A heoi aku whakanekehanga i nga waewae o Iharaira i te whenua i hoatu e ahau ki o ratou matua: ki te mau raia ratou ki te mahi i nga mea katoa i whakahaua e ahau ki a ratou, kia rite ki te ture katoa i whakahaua e Mohi, e taku pononga ki a ratou.
9 Otiia kihai ratou i rongo: i takina ketia ratou e Manahi kia nui atu ta ratou mahi kino i ta nga iwi i huna nei e Ihowa i te aroaro o nga tama a Iharaira.
10 I korero ano a Ihowa, ara ana pononga, nga poropiti, i mea,
11 Kua mahi nei a Manahi kingi o Hura i enei mea whakarihariha, kino atu tana i nga mea katoa i mea ai nga Amori i mua i a ia; a kua mea nei ia i a Hura kia hara ki ana whakapakoko;
12 Mo reira ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, a te Atua o Iharaira, Tenei ahau te kawe nei i te kino ki Hiruharama raua ko Hura, e paorooro ai nga taringa e rua o nga tangata e rangona ai.
13 Ka whakamarokia e ahau te aho o Hamaria ki runga ki Hiruharama, me te parameti o te whare o Ahapa; a ka horoia e ahau a Hiruharama, ka peratia me ta te tangata horoi i te rihi; horoia ana e ia, hurihia ana ko tua.
14 A ka rukea atu e ahau te toenga o toku wahi tupu, ka hoatu ki nga ringa o o ratou hoariri; a hei taonga parau ratou, hei mea parakete ma o ratou hoariri katoa;
15 Mo ratou i mahi i te kino ki taku titiro, i whakapataritari hoki i ahau, mai o te ra i puta mai ai o ratou matua i Ihipa a taea noatia tenei ra.
16 I whakahekea ano hoki e Manahi he toto harakore, tona nui, a ki noa i a ia Hiruharama i tetahi pito ki tetahi; tapiritia ana tenei e ia ki tona hara i hara ai a Hura, i mea ai i te kino ki te titiro a Ihowa.
17 Na, ko era atu meatanga a Manahi me ana mahi katoa, me tona hara i hara ai ia, kihai ianei ena i tuhituhia ki te pukapuka o nga meatanga o nga ra o nga kingi o Hura?
18 Na ka moe a Manahi ki ona matua, a tanumia ana ki te kari o tona whare, ki te kari a Uha: a ko tana tama, ko Amono, te kingi i muri i a ia.
19 E rua tekau ma rua nga tau o Amono i tona kingitanga, a e rua nga tau i kingi ai ia ki Hiruharama: a ko te ingoa o tona whaea ko Mehuremete, he tamahine na Harutu, no Iotopa.
20 A he kino tana mahi ki te titiro a Ihowa, rite tonu tana mahi ki ta tona papa, ki ta Manahi.
21 I haere hoki ia i nga ara katoa i haere ai tona papa, i mahi ki nga whakapakoko i mahi ai tona papa, a koropiko ana ia ki aua mea.
22 I whakarerea e ia a Ihowa, te Atua, o ona matua, kihai i haere i te ara o Ihowa.
23 Na ka whakatupu nga tangata a Amono i te mate mona, a patua iho e ratou te kingi ki roto ano i tona whare.
24 Otiia i patua e nga tangata o te whenua te hunga katoa nana i whakatupu te he mo Kingi Amono; a meinga ana e nga tangata o taua whenua a Hohia, tana tama, hei kingi i muri i a ia.
25 Na, ko era atu meatanga i mea ai a Amono, kahore ianei i tuhituhia ki te pukapuka o nga meatanga o nga ra o nga kingi o Hura?
26 A i tanumia ia ki tona tanumanga ki te kari a Uha, a ko Hohia, ko tana tama, te kingi i muri i a ia.

2 Kings 21
New International Version
Manasseh King of Judah(A)(B)
21 Manasseh was twelve years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem fifty-five years. His mother’s name was Hephzibah.(C) 2 He did evil(D) in the eyes of the Lord, following the detestable practices(E) of the nations the Lord had driven out before the Israelites. 3 He rebuilt the high places(F) his father Hezekiah had destroyed; he also erected altars to Baal(G) and made an Asherah pole,(H) as Ahab king of Israel had done. He bowed down to all the starry hosts(I) and worshiped them. 4 He built altars(J) in the temple of the Lord, of which the Lord had said, “In Jerusalem I will put my Name.”(K) 5 In the two courts(L) of the temple of the Lord, he built altars to all the starry hosts. 6 He sacrificed his own son(M) in the fire, practiced divination,(N) sought omens, and consulted mediums and spiritists.(O) He did much evil in the eyes of the Lord, arousing(P) his anger.
7 He took the carved Asherah pole(Q) he had made and put it in the temple,(R) of which the Lord had said to David and to his son Solomon, “In this temple and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, I will put my Name(S) forever. 8 I will not again(T) make the feet of the Israelites wander from the land I gave their ancestors, if only they will be careful to do everything I commanded them and will keep the whole Law that my servant Moses(U) gave them.” 9 But the people did not listen. Manasseh led them astray, so that they did more evil(V) than the nations(W) the Lord had destroyed before the Israelites.
10 The Lord said through his servants the prophets: 11 “Manasseh king of Judah has committed these detestable sins. He has done more evil(X) than the Amorites(Y) who preceded him and has led Judah into sin with his idols.(Z) 12 Therefore this is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says: I am going to bring such disaster(AA) on Jerusalem and Judah that the ears of everyone who hears of it will tingle.(AB) 13 I will stretch out over Jerusalem the measuring line used against Samaria and the plumb line(AC) used against the house of Ahab. I will wipe(AD) out Jerusalem as one wipes a dish, wiping it and turning it upside down. 14 I will forsake(AE) the remnant(AF) of my inheritance and give them into the hands of enemies. They will be looted and plundered by all their enemies; 15 they have done evil(AG) in my eyes and have aroused(AH) my anger from the day their ancestors came out of Egypt until this day.”
16 Moreover, Manasseh also shed so much innocent blood(AI) that he filled Jerusalem from end to end—besides the sin that he had caused Judah(AJ) to commit, so that they did evil in the eyes of the Lord.
17 As for the other events of Manasseh’s reign, and all he did, including the sin he committed, are they not written in the book of the annals of the kings of Judah? 18 Manasseh rested with his ancestors and was buried in his palace garden,(AK) the garden of Uzza. And Amon his son succeeded him as king.
Amon King of Judah(AL)
19 Amon was twenty-two years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem two years. His mother’s name was Meshullemeth daughter of Haruz; she was from Jotbah. 20 He did evil(AM) in the eyes of the Lord, as his father Manasseh had done. 21 He followed completely the ways of his father, worshiping the idols his father had worshiped, and bowing down to them. 22 He forsook(AN) the Lord, the God of his ancestors, and did not walk(AO) in obedience to him.
23 Amon’s officials conspired against him and assassinated(AP) the king in his palace. 24 Then the people of the land killed(AQ) all who had plotted against King Amon, and they made Josiah(AR) his son king in his place.
25 As for the other events of Amon’s reign, and what he did, are they not written in the book of the annals of the kings of Judah? 26 He was buried in his tomb in the garden(AS) of Uzza. And Josiah his son succeeded him as king.
