8  Na ko nga upoko enei o nga whare o o ratou matua, ko nga whakapaparanga ano enei o te hunga i haere atu hei hoa moku i Papurona, i te kingitanga o Kingi Arataherehe.

2 O nga tama a Pinehaha; ko Kerehoma: o nga tama a Itamara: ko Raniera: o nga tama a Rawiri; ko Hatuhu.

3 O nga tama a Hekania, o nga tama a Paroho; ko Hakaraia: na, ko nga tane i taua ngatahitia me ia, he mea whakapapa, kotahi rau e rima tekau.

4 O nga tama a Pahata Moapa; ko Erihoenai tama a Terahia; na, ko ona hoa, e rua rau nga tane.

5 O nga tama a Hekania; ko te tama a Tahatiere; na, ko ona hoa, e toru rau nga tana.

6 O nga tama ano hoki a Arini; ko Epere tama a Honatana; na, ko ona hoa, e rima tekau nga tane.

7 Na, o nga tama a Erama, ko Ihaia tama a Ataria; na, ko ona hoa, e whitu tekau nga tane.

8 O nga tama a Hepatia; ko Teparia tama a Mikaera; na, ko ona hoa, e waru tekau nga tane.

9 O nga tama a Ioapa; ko Oparia tama a Tehiere; na, ko ona hoa, e rua rau kotahi tekau ma waru nga tane.

10 O nga tama a Heromiti; ko te tama a Tohipia; na, ko ona hoa, kotahi rau e ono tekau nga tane.

11 O nga tama a Pepai; ko Hakaraia tama a Pepai; na, iko ona hoa, e rua tekau ma waru nga tane.

12 Na o nga tama a Atakara; ko Iohanana tama a Hakatana; na, ko ona hoa, kotahi rau kotahi tekau nga tane.

13 Na o nga tama whakamutunga a Aronikama; ko o ratou ingoa enei; ko Eriperete, ko Teiere, ko Hemaia; na, ko o ratou hoa, e ono tekau nga tane.

14 O nga tama ano a Pikiwai; ko Utai, ko Tapuru; na, ko o ratou hoa, e whitu tekau nga tane.

15 Na ka huihuia ratou e ahau ki te awa e rere ana ki Ahawa, a noho ana matou i reira e toru nga ra; a, i taku tirohanga i te iwi, i nga tohunga, na kihai tetahi o nga tama a Riwai i kitea e ahau ki reira.

16 Katahi ahau ka tono kia tikina a Erietere, a Ariere, a Hemaia, a Erenatana, a Iaripi, a Erenatana, a Natana, a Hakaraia, a Mehurama, he upoko enei; a Toiaripi ano a Erenatana, he kaiwhakaako raua.

17 Na ka unga ratou e ahau ki a Iro; ki te upoko o te kainga, o Kahipia; a i hoatu ano e ahau he kupu hei korero ma ratou ki a Iro ratou ko ona teina, ko nga Netinimi, i te kainga, i Kahipia, kia kawea mai ai e ratou he minita ki a matou mo te whar e o to tatou Atua.

18 Na i runga i a matou te ringa pai o to matou Atua, a ka kawea mai e ratou ki a matou he tangata whai whakaaro, no nga tama a Mahari, tama a Riwai, tama a Iharaira; a Herepia ano ratou ko ana tama, ko ona tuakana, teina, kotahi tekau ma waru;

19 A Hahapia hoki me Ihaia, no nga tama a Merari, ratou ko ona tuakana, teina, me a ratou tama, e rua tekau;

20 O nga Netinimi ano i whakaritea nei e Rawiri, e nga rangatira, mo nga mahi a nga Riwaiti, e rua rau e rua tekau nga Netinimi; he mea whakahua katoa o ratou ingoa.

21 Katahi ka karangatia e ahau he nohopuku ki reira ki te taha o te awa o Ahawa, kia whakaiti ai matou i a matou ki te aroaro o to matou Atua, kia rapua ai e matou i a ia te ara tika mo matou, mo a matou tamariki, mo o matou taonga katoa.

22 I whakama hoki ahau ki te tono ki te kingi i tetahi ropu hoia me etahi kaieke hoiho hei tuara mo matou ki te hoariri i te ara; i korero hoki matou ki te kingi, i mea, Kei runga te ringa o to matou Atua i te hunga katoa e rapu ana i a ia, hei pai mo ratou: otiia ka whawhai tona kaha, me tona riri, ki te hunga katoa e whakarere ana i a ia.

23 Na, nohopuku ana matou, rapua ana e matou he tikanga i to matou Atua mo tenei mea, a tahuri mai ana ia ki a matou.

24 Na ka motuhia e ahau etahi o nga tohunga kotahi tekau ma rua, a Herepia, a Hahapia, me o ratou teina kotahi tekau.

25 Paunatia ana e ahau te hiriwa, te koura, me nga oko ara te whakahere ki te whare o to matou Atua i homai nei e te kingi ratou ko ana kaiwhakatakoto whakaaro, ko ana rangatira, e Iharaira katoa ano i reira.

26 I paunatia ano e ahau ki o ratou ringa te hiriwa e ono rau e rima tekau taranata, nga oko hiriwa kotahi rau taranata; te koura kotahi rau taranata.

27 Me nga peihana koura e rua tekau, kotahi mano tarami te taimaha; me nga oko e rua, he parahi pai, kanapa tonu, rite tonu ki te koura te utu nui.

28 I mea ano ahau ki a ratou, He tapu koutou ki a Ihowa, he tapu hoki nga oko; he mea whakahere noa ake ano hoki te hiriwa me te koura ma Ihowa, ma te Atua o o koutou matua.

29 Matapoporetia iho, tiakina, kia paunatia ra ano e koutou ki te aroaro o nga rangatira, o nga tohunga, o nga Riwaiti, o nga rangatira o nga whare o nga matua o Iharaira, ki Hiruharama, i roto i nga ruma o te whare o Ihowa.

30 Heoi riro ana i nga tohunga, i nga Riwaiti, te taimaha o te hiriwa, o te koura, o nga oko, hei mau ki Hiruharama, ki te whare o to tatou Atua.

31 Na ka turia e matou i te awa o Ahawa i te tekau ma rua o te marama tuatahi, ka haere ki Hiruharama. I runga hoki i a matou te ringa o to matou Atua, a whakaorangia ana matou e ia i te ringa o te hoariri, o te kaiwhanga i te ara.

32 Na kua tae matou ki Hiruharama, a noho ana i reira, e toru nga ra.

33 I te wha o nga ra, na ko taua hiriwa, koura, me nga oko, ka paunatia i roto i te whare o to tatou Atua e te ringa o Meremoto tama a Uria tohunga; i a ia ano a Ereatara tama a Pinehaha; i a raua hoki a Iotapara tama a Hehua; raua ko Noaria tama a Pinui, no nga Riwaiti.

34 He mea tatau, he mea pauna, tenei, tenei; i tuhituhia hoki nga taimaha katoa i taua wa ano.

35 Na, ko te hunga i haere mai nei i te whakarau, nga tama a te hunga i whakaraua atu, tapaea ana e ratou he tahunga tinana ma te Atua o Iharaira, kotahi tekau ma rua puru, he mea mo Iharaira katoa, e iwa tekau ma ono hipi toa, e whitu tekau ma whi tu reme, tekau ma rua koati toa, hei whakahere hara: ko tenei katoa hei tahunga tinana ki a Ihowa.

36 Na ka hoatu nga ture a te kingi ki nga kawana nui a te kingi, ki nga kawana iti i tera taha o te awa; a ko ratou hei whakaneke ake i ta te iwi, i te whare ano o te Atua.

The Return to Jerusalem

15 I assembled them at the canal that flows toward Ahava,(G) and we camped there three days. When I checked among the people and the priests, I found no Levites(H) there. 16 So I summoned Eliezer, Ariel, Shemaiah, Elnathan, Jarib, Elnathan, Nathan, Zechariah and Meshullam, who were leaders, and Joiarib and Elnathan, who were men of learning, 17 and I ordered them to go to Iddo, the leader in Kasiphia. I told them what to say to Iddo and his fellow Levites, the temple servants(I) in Kasiphia, so that they might bring attendants to us for the house of our God. 18 Because the gracious hand of our God was on us,(J) they brought us Sherebiah,(K) a capable man, from the descendants of Mahli son of Levi, the son of Israel, and Sherebiah’s sons and brothers, 18 in all; 19 and Hashabiah, together with Jeshaiah from the descendants of Merari, and his brothers and nephews, 20 in all. 20 They also brought 220 of the temple servants(L)—a body that David and the officials had established to assist the Levites. All were registered by name.

21 There, by the Ahava Canal,(M) I proclaimed a fast, so that we might humble ourselves before our God and ask him for a safe journey(N) for us and our children, with all our possessions. 22 I was ashamed to ask the king for soldiers(O) and horsemen to protect us from enemies on the road, because we had told the king, “The gracious hand of our God is on everyone(P) who looks to him, but his great anger is against all who forsake him.(Q)” 23 So we fasted(R) and petitioned our God about this, and he answered our prayer.

24 Then I set apart twelve of the leading priests, namely, Sherebiah,(S) Hashabiah and ten of their brothers, 25 and I weighed out(T) to them the offering of silver and gold and the articles that the king, his advisers, his officials and all Israel present there had donated for the house of our God. 26 I weighed out to them 650 talents[c] of silver, silver articles weighing 100 talents,[d] 100 talents[e] of gold, 27 20 bowls of gold valued at 1,000 darics,[f] and two fine articles of polished bronze, as precious as gold.

28 I said to them, “You as well as these articles are consecrated to the Lord.(U) The silver and gold are a freewill offering to the Lord, the God of your ancestors. 29 Guard them carefully until you weigh them out in the chambers of the house of the Lord in Jerusalem before the leading priests and the Levites and the family heads of Israel.” 30 Then the priests and Levites received the silver and gold and sacred articles that had been weighed out to be taken to the house of our God in Jerusalem.

31 On the twelfth day of the first month we set out from the Ahava Canal(V) to go to Jerusalem. The hand of our God was on us,(W) and he protected us from enemies and bandits along the way. 32 So we arrived in Jerusalem, where we rested three days.(X)

33 On the fourth day, in the house of our God, we weighed out(Y) the silver and gold and the sacred articles into the hands of Meremoth(Z) son of Uriah, the priest. Eleazar son of Phinehas was with him, and so were the Levites Jozabad(AA) son of Jeshua and Noadiah son of Binnui.(AB) 34 Everything was accounted for by number and weight, and the entire weight was recorded at that time.

35 Then the exiles who had returned from captivity sacrificed burnt offerings to the God of Israel: twelve bulls(AC) for all Israel,(AD) ninety-six rams, seventy-seven male lambs and, as a sin offering,[g] twelve male goats.(AE) All this was a burnt offering to the Lord. 36 They also delivered the king’s orders(AF) to the royal satraps and to the governors of Trans-Euphrates,(AG) who then gave assistance to the people and to the house of God.(AH)
