< 2 Chronicles 24 >
1 Joash was seven years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem forty years. His mother’s name was Zibiah; she was from Beersheba.
E HIKU makahiki o Ioasa i kona wa i alii ai, a noho alii iho la oia i na makahiki hookahi kanaha ma Ierusalema; a o ka inoa o kona makuwahine o Zibia no Beereseba.
2 And Joash did what was right in the eyes of the LORD all the days of Jehoiada the priest.
A hana pololei o Ioasa imua o Iehova i na la a pau o Iehoiada ke kahuna.
3 Jehoiada took for himself two wives, and he had sons and daughters.
A haawi aku o Iehoiada i mau wahine elua nana, a hanau mai la nana he mau keikikane a he mau kaikamahine.
4 Some time later, Joash set his heart on repairing the house of the LORD.
Mahope iho, komo iho la iloko o ka naau o Ioasa e hoomaikai hou i ka hale o Iehova.
5 So he gathered the priests and Levites and said, “Go out to the cities of Judah and collect the money due annually from all Israel, to repair the house of your God. Do it quickly.” The Levites, however, did not make haste.
Hoakoakoa ae la oia i ka poe kahuna, a me na Levi, a olelo aku la ia lakou, E hele oukou i na kulanakauhale o Iuda, a e houluulu i kahi kala a ka Iseraela a pau i mea e hoomaikai hou ai i ka hale o ko oukou Akua, i kela makahiki keia makahiki; e wikiwiki oukou i keia hana. Aka, aole i hana wawe na Levi.
6 So the king called Jehoiada the high priest and said, “Why have you not required the Levites to bring from Judah and Jerusalem the tax imposed by Moses the servant of the LORD and by the assembly of Israel for the Tent of the Testimony?”
Kahea aku la ke alii ia Iehoiada ka luna, a olelo aku la ia ia, No ke aha la i hoeueu ole aku ai oe i na Levi e lawe mai, mailoko mai o Iuda a me Ierusalema i ka auhau a Mose ke kauwa a Iehova i kau aku ai maluna o ka ahakanaka o ka Iseraela, no ka halelewa o ke kanawai?
7 For the sons of that wicked woman Athaliah had broken into the house of God and had even used the sacred objects of the house of the LORD for the Baals.
No ka mea, o Atalia, ua wahine ino la, a o kana mau keiki kekahi, wawahi iho la lakou i ka hale o ke Akua, a hoolilo lakou i na mea laa a pau o ka bale o Iehova na Baala.
8 At the king’s command a chest was made and placed outside, at the gate of the house of the LORD.
Olelo ke alii, a hana lakou i pahu, a waiho iho la ia mea mawaho ma ka puka o ka hale o Iehova.
9 And a proclamation was issued in Judah and Jerusalem that they were to bring to the LORD the tax imposed by Moses the servant of God on Israel in the wilderness.
A kukala aku la lakou ma Iuda, a ma Ierusalema, E lawe mai na Iehova i ka auhau a Mose, ke kauwa a ke Akua i kau aku ai maluna o ka Iseraela ma ka waonahele.
10 All the officers and all the people rejoiced and brought their contributions, and they dropped them in the chest until it was full.
A hauoli iho la na kaukaualii a pau a me na kanaka a pau, a lawe mai lakou, a hahao iloko o ka pahu, a hoopau ae la.
11 Whenever the chest was brought by the Levites to the king’s overseers and they saw that there was a large amount of money, the royal scribe and the officer of the high priest would come and empty the chest and carry it back to its place. They did this daily and gathered the money in abundance.
A i ka wa i laweia mai ai ka pahu imua o na luna o ke alii e na Levi, a ike lakou ua nui ke kala, alaila hele mai ka lunakakau o ke alii, a me ka luna o ke kahuna nui, a hoohuli lakou i ka pahu, a lawe ae ia mea, a hoihoi aku i kona wahi; pela lakou i hana'i i kela la i keia la, a hoiliili lakou i ke kala he nui loa.
12 Then the king and Jehoiada would give the money to those who supervised the labor on the house of the LORD to hire stonecutters and carpenters to restore the house of the LORD, as well as workers in iron and bronze to repair the house of the LORD.
A o ke alii a me Iehoiada, haawi laua i keia mea i ka poe ia lakou ka hana ma ka hale o Iehova, a hoolimalima lakou i poe kalai pohaku, a i ka poe kamana, e hoomaikai hou i ka hale o Iehova, a i poe kui hao a me ke keleawe, e hoopaa hou i ka hale o Iehova.
13 So the workmen labored, and in their hands the repair work progressed. They restored the house of God according to its specifications, and they reinforced it.
A hana iho la ka poe paahana, a paa ia hana ia lakou, a kukulu lakou i ka hale o ke Akua, e like me kona ano mamua, hana hoi lakou a paa.
14 When they were finished, they brought the rest of the money to the king and Jehoiada to make with it the articles for the house of the LORD—utensils for the service and for the burnt offerings, dishes, and other objects of gold and silver. Throughout the days of Jehoiada, burnt offerings were presented regularly in the house of the LORD.
A paa ia hana, lawe mai lakou imua o ke alii a me Iehoiada i ke koena o ke kala, a hana lakou i na kiaha no ka hale o Iehova, i na kiaha e lawelawe ai, a e mohai aku ai, a me na puna a me na kiaha gula a me ke kala. A mohai mau aku lakou i na mohai iloko o ka hale o Iehova i na la a pau o Iehoiada.
15 When Jehoiada was old and full of years, he died at the age of 130.
A elemakule iho la o Iehoiada, a nui loa kona mau la, a make iho la ia. Hookahi haneri kona mau makahiki a me kanakolu, i kona make ana.
16 And Jehoiada was buried with the kings in the City of David, because he had done what was good in Israel for God and His temple.
A kanu lakou ia ia iloko o ke kulanakauhale o Davida me na alii, no ka mea, ua hana pono ia iloko o ka Iseraela, i ke Akua kekahi, a i kona hale iho no hoi.
17 After the death of Jehoiada, however, the officials of Judah came and paid homage to the king, and he listened to them.
A mahope o ka make ana o Iehoiada, hele mai na kaukaualii o luda, a kulou imua o ke alii; alaila, hoolohe ke alii ia lakou.
18 They abandoned the house of the LORD, the God of their fathers, and served the Asherah poles and idols. So wrath came upon Judah and Jerusalem for this guilt of theirs.
A haalele lakou i ka hale o Iehova, ke Akua o ko lakou poe kupuna, a hookauwa lakou na Asetarota a me na kii; a hiki mai ka huhu maluna o Iuda, a me Ierusalema no keia hewa o lakou.
19 Nevertheless, the LORD sent prophets to bring the people back to Him and to testify against them; but they would not listen.
Hoouna mai no nae oia io lakou la i na kaula e hoohuli ia lakou ia Iehova, a e ao pinepine ia lakou, aka, aole lakou i hoolohe.
20 Then the Spirit of God came upon Zechariah son of Jehoiada the priest, who stood up before the people and said to them, “This is what God says: ‘Why do you transgress the commandments of the LORD so that you cannot prosper? Because you have forsaken the LORD, He has forsaken you.’”
Alaila, kau mai la i ka Uhane o ke Akua maluna o Zekaria, ke keiki a Iehoiada, ke kahuna, a ku ae la ia imua o kanaka, olelo mai la ia lakou, Penei i olelo mai ai ke Akua. No ke aha la oukou i malama ole ai i na kanawai o Iehova, i pono ole ai oukou? No ka mea, ua haalele oukou ia Iehova, a ua haalele no hoi kela ia oukou.
21 But they conspired against Zechariah, and by order of the king, they stoned him in the courtyard of the house of the LORD.
Alaila, hui ku e lakou ia ia, hailuku lakou ia ia i ka pohaku, mamuli o ke kauoha a ke alii ma ka lanai o ka hale o Iehova.
22 Thus King Joash failed to remember the kindness that Zechariah’s father Jehoiada had extended to him. Instead, Joash killed Jehoiada’s son. As he lay dying, Zechariah said, “May the LORD see this and call you to account.”
Pela i hoomanao ole ai o Ioasa, ke alii, i ka lokomaikai a Iehoiada a kona makuakane i hana mai ai ia in, aka, pepehi ia i kana keiki: a i kona make ana, i mai la ia, E nana mai o Iehova, a e uku mai hoi.
23 In the spring, the army of Aram went to war against Joash. They entered Judah and Jerusalem and destroyed all the leaders of the people, and they sent all the plunder to their king in Damascus.
A i ka pau ana o ka makahiki, pii ku e mai la io na la ko Suria poe koa; a komo lakou iloko o Iuda, a me Ierusalema, a luku mai la lakou i na kaukaualii o na kanaka mailoko mai o ka poe kanaka, a hoouka aku la i ka waiwai pio a pau o lakou i ke alii ma Damaseko.
24 Although the Aramean army had come with only a few men, the LORD delivered into their hand a very great army. Because Judah had forsaken the LORD, the God of their fathers, judgment was executed on Joash.
No ka mea, he poe uuku ko Suria poe i hele mai, aka, ua haawi mai o Iehova iloko o ko lakou lima i ka poe nui loa, no ka mea, ua haa. lele lakou nei ia Iehova ke Akua o ko lakou poe kupuna. Pela lakou i hoopai mai ai ia Ioasa.
25 And when the Arameans had withdrawn, they left Joash severely wounded. His own servants conspired against him for shedding the blood of the son of Jehoiada the priest, and they killed him on his bed. So he died and was buried in the City of David, but not in the tombs of the kings.
A i ko lakou hoi ana mai ona aku, (no ka mea, he mai nui kona i ko lakou hanlele ana ia ia, ) hui ku e kana poe kauwa ia ia, no ke koko o na keiki a Iehoiada, ke kahuna, a pepehi lakou ia ia maluna o kona wahi moe, a make iho la ia; a ua kanu lakou ia ia iloko o ke kulanakauhale o Davida, aole nae i kanu lakou ia ia iloko o ka ilina o na'lii.
26 Those who conspired against Joash were Zabad son of Shimeath the Ammonitess and Jehozabad son of Shimrith the Moabitess.
Eia na mea i hui ku e ia ia; o Zabada, ke keiki a Simeata, a kekahi wahine Amona, a o Iehozabada ke keiki a Simerita, a kekahi wahine Moaba.
27 The accounts of the sons of Joash, as well as the many pronouncements about him and about the restoration of the house of God, are indeed written in the Treatise of the Book of the Kings. And his son Amaziah reigned in his place.
A no kana poe keiki, a me na mea nui i kauia maluna ona, a no ka hoomaikai hou ana i ka hale o ke Akua, aia hoi. ua kakauia ia mau mea ma ka palapala o ka buke no ua'lii. A noho alii iho la o Amazia kana keiki mahope ona.
