2 Chronicles 19
Maori Bible
19 Na hoki marie ana a Iehohapata ki tona whare, ki Hiruharama.
2 A ka puta te matakite, a Iehu tama a Hanani, ki te whakatau i a ia, ka mea ki a Kingi Iehohapata, Me awhina ianei e koe te tangata kino, me aroha ki te hunga e kino ana ki a Ihowa? Na he riri tenei mou, he mea no te aroaro o Ihowa.
3 He ahakoa ra kua kitea etahi mea pai au. I whakakahoretia atu hoki e koe te Aheroto i te whenua; i anga ano tou ngakau ki te rapu i te Atua.
4 Na noho ana a Iehohapata ki Hiruharama, a ka haere atu ano ia puta noa i te iwi, i Peerehepa a tae noa ki te whenua pukepuke o Eparima, a whakahokia ana ratou e ia ki a Ihowa, ki te Atua o o ratou matua.
5 I whakaritea ano e ia he kaiwhakawa mo te whenua ki nga pa taiepa katoa o Hura, ki tenei pa, ki tenei pa.
6 I mea ano ia ki nga kaiwhakawa, Kia whai mahara ki ta koutou e mea ai; ehara hoki ta koutou whakarite whakawa i te mea ki te tangata, engari ki a Ihowa; kei a koutou ano ia ina whakawa.
7 Na kia tau te wehi o Ihowa ki a koutou, kia mau hoki ki te mahi; kahore hoki o to tatou Atua, o Ihowa, whakahaere he, kahore he whakapai i te tangata, kahore he tango utu.
8 I whakaritea ano e Iehohapata ki Hiruharama etahi o nga Riwaiti, o nga tohunga, o nga upoko o nga whare o nga matua o Iharaira, mo ta Ihowa whakawa, mo nga tautohetohe. A hoki ana ratou ki Hiruharama.
9 I whakahau ano ia i a ratou, i mea, Meatia tenei i runga i te wehi o Ihowa, i te pono, i te ngakau tapatahi.
10 Ki te tae mai te tautohetohe ki a koutou, he mea na o koutou teina e noho ana i o ratou pa, he toto penei ranei, he toto pera ranei, he ture ranei, he whakaritenga ranei, he whakahau ranei, he tikanga ranei, me whakatupato ratou kia kaua e hara ki a Ihowa, kei takoto he riri mo koutou, mo o koutou tuakana, teina. Meatia tenei, a e kore koutou e whai hara.
11 Nana, ko Amaria tino tohunga hei upoko mo koutou i nga mea katoa a Ihowa; ko Teparia hoki, tama a Ihimaera, rangatira o te whare o Hura, mo nga mea katoa a te kingi: ko nga Riwaiti ano hei rangatira i to koutou aroaro. Kia maia ki te mahi, a ko Ihowa hei hoa mo te pai.

2 Chronicles 19
New International Version
19 When Jehoshaphat king of Judah returned safely to his palace in Jerusalem, 2 Jehu(A) the seer, the son of Hanani, went out to meet him and said to the king, “Should you help the wicked(B) and love[a] those who hate the Lord?(C) Because of this, the wrath(D) of the Lord is on you. 3 There is, however, some good(E) in you, for you have rid the land of the Asherah poles(F) and have set your heart on seeking God.(G)”
Jehoshaphat Appoints Judges
4 Jehoshaphat lived in Jerusalem, and he went out again among the people from Beersheba to the hill country of Ephraim and turned them back to the Lord, the God of their ancestors. 5 He appointed judges(H) in the land, in each of the fortified cities of Judah. 6 He told them, “Consider carefully what you do,(I) because you are not judging for mere mortals(J) but for the Lord, who is with you whenever you give a verdict. 7 Now let the fear of the Lord be on you. Judge carefully, for with the Lord our God there is no injustice(K) or partiality(L) or bribery.”
8 In Jerusalem also, Jehoshaphat appointed some of the Levites,(M) priests(N) and heads of Israelite families to administer(O) the law of the Lord and to settle disputes. And they lived in Jerusalem. 9 He gave them these orders: “You must serve faithfully and wholeheartedly in the fear of the Lord. 10 In every case that comes before you from your people who live in the cities—whether bloodshed or other concerns of the law, commands, decrees or regulations—you are to warn them not to sin against the Lord;(P) otherwise his wrath will come on you and your people. Do this, and you will not sin.
11 “Amariah the chief priest will be over you in any matter concerning the Lord, and Zebadiah son of Ishmael, the leader of the tribe of Judah, will be over you in any matter concerning the king, and the Levites will serve as officials before you. Act with courage,(Q) and may the Lord be with those who do well.”

King James Version
19 And Jehoshaphat the king of Judah returned to his house in peace to Jerusalem.
2 And Jehu the son of Hanani the seer went out to meet him, and said to king Jehoshaphat, Shouldest thou help the ungodly, and love them that hate the Lord? therefore is wrath upon thee from before the Lord.
3 Nevertheless there are good things found in thee, in that thou hast taken away the groves out of the land, and hast prepared thine heart to seek God.
4 And Jehoshaphat dwelt at Jerusalem: and he went out again through the people from Beersheba to mount Ephraim, and brought them back unto the Lord God of their fathers.
5 And he set judges in the land throughout all the fenced cities of Judah, city by city,
6 And said to the judges, Take heed what ye do: for ye judge not for man, but for the Lord, who is with you in the judgment.
7 Wherefore now let the fear of the Lord be upon you; take heed and do it: for there is no iniquity with the Lord our God, nor respect of persons, nor taking of gifts.
8 Moreover in Jerusalem did Jehoshaphat set of the Levites, and of the priests, and of the chief of the fathers of Israel, for the judgment of the Lord, and for controversies, when they returned to Jerusalem.
9 And he charged them, saying, Thus shall ye do in the fear of the Lord, faithfully, and with a perfect heart.
10 And what cause soever shall come to you of your brethren that dwell in your cities, between blood and blood, between law and commandment, statutes and judgments, ye shall even warn them that they trespass not against the Lord, and so wrath come upon you, and upon your brethren: this do, and ye shall not trespass.
11 And, behold, Amariah the chief priest is over you in all matters of the Lord; and Zebadiah the son of Ishmael, the ruler of the house of Judah, for all the king's matters: also the Levites shall be officers before you. Deal courageously, and the Lord shall be with the good.
