< 2 Chronicles 29 >
1 Hezekiah was twenty-five years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem twenty-nine years. His mother’s name was Abijah, the daughter of Zechariah.
HOOMAKA iho la o Hezekia e alii i kona makahiki he iwakaluakumamalima, a he iwakaluakumamaiwa makahiki kona noho alii ana ma Ierusalema; a o ka inoa o kona makuwahine, o Abia, ke kaikamahine a Zekaria.
2 And he did what was right in the eyes of the LORD, just as his father David had done.
Hana pololei iho la oia imua i ke alo o Iehova, e like me na mea a pau a Davida kona kupuna i hana'i.
3 In the first month of the first year of his reign, Hezekiah opened and repaired the doors of the house of the LORD.
I ka makahiki mua o kona noho alii ana, a i ka malama mua no hoi, wehe ae la ia i na puka o ka hale o Iehova, a hana hou ia mau mea.
4 Then he brought in the priests and Levites and gathered them in the square on the east side.
Kii aku ia i na kahuna a me na Levi, a houluulu ia lakou ma ke ala ma ka hikina;
5 “Listen to me, O Levites,” he said. “Consecrate yourselves now and consecrate the house of the LORD, the God of your fathers. Remove from the Holy Place every impurity.
Olelo aku la oia ia lakou, E hoolohe mai oukou ia'u, e na Levi; ano, e huikala oukou ia oukou iho, a e hoomaemae oukou i ka hale o Iehova ke Akua o ko oukou poe kupuna, a e lawe aku i na mea haumia mai kahi hoano aku.
6 For our fathers were unfaithful and did evil in the sight of the LORD our God. They abandoned Him, turned their faces away from the dwelling place of the LORD, and turned their backs on Him.
No ka mea, ua lawehala ko kakou poe kupuna, ua hana ino lakou imua i ke alo o Iehova, ko kakou Akua, ua haalele lakou ia ia, ua huli ko lakou maka mai ka halelewa o Iehova aku, a ua haawi mai lakou i ke kua.
7 They also shut the doors of the portico and extinguished the lamps. They did not burn incense or present burnt offerings in the Holy Place of the God of Israel.
A ua pani lakou i na puka o ka lanai, ua kinai i na kukui, aole lakou i kuni i ka mea ala, aole hoi i mohai aku lakou i kekahi mohai ma kahi hoano o ke Akua o ka Iseraela.
8 Therefore, the wrath of the LORD has fallen upon Judah and Jerusalem, and He has made them an object of terror, horror, and mockery, as you can see with your own eyes.
No ia mea, ua kauia mai ka huhu o Iehova maluna o ka Iuda, a me ko Ierusalema, a ua haawi oia ia lakou i ka hana ino ia mai, a me ka heneheneia mai, a me ka hoowahawahaia mai, e like me ka mea a ko oukou mau maka i ike iho nei.
9 For behold, this is why our fathers have fallen by the sword, and our sons and daughters and wives are in captivity.
Aia hoi, ua haule ko kakou poe kupuna i ka pahikaua, a o ka kakou poe keiki kane, a me na kaikamahine a kakou, a me na wahine a kakou, he poe pio lakou no keia hewa.
10 Now it is in my heart to make a covenant with the LORD, the God of Israel, so that His fierce anger will turn away from us.
Ano, eia no iloko o ko'u naau e hana i berita me Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela, i huli ae kona huhu wela mai o kakou aku.
11 Now, my sons, do not be negligent, for the LORD has chosen you to stand before Him, to serve Him, to minister before Him, and to burn incense.”
Ano, e ka'u poe keiki, mai lalau oukou; no ka mea, ua wae mai o Iehova ia oukou e ku imua ona e hookauwa nana, a e lawelawe i kana mau oihana, a e kuni i ka mea ala.
12 Then the Levites set to work: Mahath son of Amasai and Joel son of Azariah from the Kohathites; Kish son of Abdi and Azariah son of Jehallelel from the Merarites; Joah son of Zimmah and Eden son of Joah from the Gershonites;
Alaila, ku ae la iluna na Levi, o Mahata, ke keiki a Amasai, a me Ioela, ke keiki a Azaria, no ka poe mamo a Kohata; a no ka poe mamo a Merari, o Kisa ke keiki a Abedi, a me Azaria ke keiki a Iehalelela; a o ka poe mamo a Geresoma, o Ioa ke keiki a Zima, a o Edena ke keiki a Ioa;
13 Shimri and Jeuel from the Elizaphanites; Zechariah and Mattaniah from the Asaphites;
A no ka poe mamo a Elizapana, o Simeri, a me Ieila; a no ka poe mamo a Asapa, o Zekaria, a me Matania;
14 Jehiel and Shimei from the Hemanites; and Shemaiah and Uzziel from the Jeduthunites.
A no ka poe mamo a Hemana, o Iehiela, a me Simei; a no ka poe mamo a Iedutuna, o Semaia a me Uziela.
15 When they had assembled their brothers and consecrated themselves, they went in to cleanse the house of the LORD, according to the command of the king by the words of the LORD.
A houluulu lakou i ko lakou poe hoahanau, a huikala ia lakou iho, a hele mai e like me ke kauoha a ke alii, a me ka olelo a Iehova, e hoomaemae i ka hale o Iehova.
16 So the priests went inside the house of the LORD to cleanse it, and they brought out to the courtyard all the unclean things that they found in the temple of the LORD. Then the Levites took these things and carried them out to the Kidron Valley.
A komo na kahuna iloko lilo o ka hale o Iehova e hoomaemae, a lawe lakou iwaho i na mea maemae ole a pau i loaa ia lakou ma ka luakini o Iehova, a waiho ma ke kahua o ka hale o Iehova. A lawe ka poe mamo a Levi ia mau mea, a hali aku i ke kahawai o Kiderona.
17 They began the consecration on the first day of the first month, and on the eighth day of the month they reached the portico of the LORD. For eight more days they consecrated the house of the LORD itself, finishing on the sixteenth day of the first month.
Hoomaka lakou e hoomaemae i ka la mua o ka malama mua, a i ka la ewalu o ua malama la ua hiki lakou i ka lanai o Iehova; pela i hoomaemae ai lakou i ka hale o Iehova i na la ewalu, a i ka la umikumamaono o ka malama mua, hoopau ae la lakou.
18 Then they went in to King Hezekiah and reported, “We have cleansed the entire house of the LORD, the altar of burnt offering with all its utensils, and the table of the showbread with all its utensils.
A komo lakou iloko io Hezekia la, ke alii, a olelo aku la ia ia, Ua hoomaemae makou i ka hale o Iehova a pau, a me ke kuahu mohai, a me ko laila mau kiaha a pau, a me ka papa berena hoike, a me ko laila mau kiaha a pau.
19 Moreover, we have prepared and consecrated all the articles that King Ahaz in his unfaithfulness cast aside during his reign. They are now in front of the altar of the LORD.”
A me na kiaha a pau a ke alii a Ahaza i kiola aku ai, i kona lawehala ana i kona wa i noho alii ai, hoomakaukau makou, a hoomaemae no hoi, aia hoi ia mau mea imua o ke kuahu o Iehova.
20 Early the next morning King Hezekiah gathered the city officials and went up to the house of the LORD.
A kakahiaka nui ala ae la o Hezekia, ke alii, a houluulu i na alii o ke kulanakauhale, a pii aku i ka hale o Iehova.
21 They brought seven bulls, seven rams, seven lambs, and seven male goats as a sin offering for the kingdom, for the sanctuary, and for Judah. And the king commanded the priests, the descendants of Aaron, to offer them on the altar of the LORD.
A lawe mai lakou i ehiku bipi kane, a me na hipa keiki ehiku, a me na kao kane ehiku, i mohaihala no ke aupuni, a no ke keenakapu, a no ka Iuda; a kauoha aku la ia i na mamo a Aarona, i na kahuna, e mohai aku ia mau mea maluna o ke kuahu o Iehova.
22 So they slaughtered the bulls, and the priests took the blood and sprinkled it on the altar. They slaughtered the rams and sprinkled the blood on the altar. And they slaughtered the lambs and sprinkled the blood on the altar.
A pepehi iho la lakou i na bipi, a lawe na kahuna i ke koko, a kapipi iho la maluna o ke kuahu; a pepehi no hoi lakou i na hipa kane, a kapipi iho la i ke koko maluna o ke kuahu; a pepehi lakou i na hipa keiki no hoi, a kapipi iho la i ke koko maluna o ke kuahu.
23 Then they brought the goats for the sin offering before the king and the assembly, who laid their hands on them.
A kai mai la lakou i na kao kane i mohaihala imua o ke alii, a me ka ahakanaka; a kau lakou i ko lakou mau lima maluna o ia mau mea:
24 And the priests slaughtered the goats and put their blood on the altar for a sin offering, to make atonement for all Israel, because the king had ordered the burnt offering and the sin offering for all Israel.
A pepehi na kahuna ia mau mea, a mohai aku i ko lakou koko maluna o ke kuahu, i mea e uhi ai i ka hala no ka Iseraela a pau; no ka mea, no ka Iseraela a pau i kauoha ai ke alii i ka mohaikuni a me ka mohaihala.
25 Hezekiah stationed the Levites in the house of the LORD with cymbals, harps, and lyres according to the command of David, of Gad the king’s seer, and of Nathan the prophet. For the command had come from the LORD through His prophets.
A hoonoho iho la oia i na Levi iloko o ka hale o Iehova me na kimebala, a me na pesaletera, a me na mea kani, e like me ke kauoha a Davida, a me Gada ke kumu a ke alii, a me Natana ke kaula: no ka mea, pela ke kauoha a Iehova ma na kaula.
26 The Levites stood with the instruments of David, and the priests with the trumpets.
A ku ae la iluna na Levi me na mea kani a Davida, a o na kahuna kekahi me na pu.
27 And Hezekiah ordered that the burnt offering be sacrificed on the altar. When the burnt offering began, the song of the LORD and the trumpets began as well, accompanied by the instruments of David king of Israel.
Alaila, kauoha o Hezekia e mohai aku i ka mohai maluna o ke kuahu; a i ka wa i hoomaka ai lakou e mohai aku, hoomaka no hoi ka himeni o Iehova me na pu a me na mea kani, a Davida ke alii o ka Iseraela.
28 The whole assembly was worshiping, the singers were singing, and the trumpeters were playing. All this continued until the burnt offering was completed.
A o ka ahakanaka a pau loa, kulou iho la lakou, a himeni aku ka poe himeni, puhi no hoi ka poe puhi pu; a hana pela a pau ka mohai ana.
29 When the offerings were completed, the king and all those present with him bowed down and worshiped.
A pau ae la ka mohai ana, kulou iho la ke alii, a me ka poe malaila pu me ia a pau, a hoomana aku la.
30 Then King Hezekiah and his officials ordered the Levites to sing praises to the LORD in the words of David and of Asaph the seer. So they sang praises with gladness and bowed their heads and worshiped.
Alaila, kauoha ae la o Hezekia ke alii, a me na kaukaualii i na Levi, e hoomaikai aku ia Iehova ma na olelo a Davida, a me Asapa ke kaula. A hoomaikai aku lakou me ka olioli, kulou iho la, a hoomana aku la.
31 Then Hezekiah said, “Now that you have consecrated yourselves to the LORD, come near and bring sacrifices and thank offerings to the house of the LORD.” So the assembly brought sacrifices and thank offerings, and all whose hearts were willing brought burnt offerings.
Olelo mai la o Hezekia, i mai la, Ano, ua hoolaa oukou ia oukou iho no Iehova, e hele mai, a e lawe mai i na mohai, a me na mohai aloha i ka hale o Iehova. A lawe mai ka ahakanaka i na alana, a me na mohai aloha; a o ka poe a pau i makemake ka naau, lawe mai lakou i na mohaikuni.
32 The number of burnt offerings the assembly brought was seventy bulls, a hundred rams, and two hundred lambs; all these were for a burnt offering to the LORD.
O na mohaikuni ma ka helu ana, a ka ahakanaka i lawe mai ai, he kanahiku bipi, hookahi haneri hipa kane, a elua haneri hipa keiki: no ka mohaikuni ia Iehova keia mau mea a pau loa.
33 And the consecrated offerings were six hundred bulls and three thousand sheep.
A o na mea i hoolaaia, eono haneri bipi, a ekolu tausani hipa.
34 However, since there were not enough priests to skin all the burnt offerings, their Levite brothers helped them until the work was finished and until the priests had been consecrated. For the Levites had been more diligent in consecrating themselves than the priests had been.
Aka, aole i nui ka poe kahuna, aole hiki ia lakou wale no ke pepehi i na mohaikuni a pau: no ia mea, kokua mai ko lakou poe hoahanau, o na Levi, a hiki i ka pau ana o ka hana, a i ka wa hoi i huikala mai ai ka poe kahuna ia lakou iho; no ka mea, ua oi aku ka pololei o ka naau o na Levi e huikala ia lakou iho mamua o na kahuna.
35 Furthermore, the burnt offerings were abundant, along with the fat of the peace offerings and the drink offerings for the burnt offerings. So the service of the house of the LORD was established.
Ua nui loa no hoi na mohaikuni me ka momona o na mohai aloha, a me na mohai inu, no kela mohaikuni, keia mohaikuni. Pela i hooponoponoia'i na oihana o ka hale o Iehova.
36 Then Hezekiah and all the people rejoiced at what God had prepared for the people, because everything had been accomplished so quickly.
A hauoli o Hezekia a me na kanaka a pau i ko ke Akua hoomakaukau ana i na kanaka; no ka mea, hiki wawe no ka hana.
