2 Chronicles 30
1 Then Hezekiah sent word throughout all Israel and Judah, and he also wrote letters to Ephraim and Manasseh inviting them to come to the house of the LORD in Jerusalem to keep the Passover of the LORD, the God of Israel.
HOOUNA aku la o Hezekia a i ka Iseraela a pau, a me ka Iuda, a kakau no hoi oia i na palapala na ka Eperaima, a me Manase, e hele mai i ka hale o Iehova ma Ierusalema, e hana i ka ahaaina moliaola na Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela.
2 For the king and his officials and the whole assembly in Jerusalem had decided to keep the Passover in the second month,
Ua kukakuka pu ke alii a me na alii iho ona, a me ka ahakanaka a pau ma Ierusalema, e hana i ka ahaaina moliaola i ka malama elua.
3 since they had been unable to observe it at the regular time, because not enough priests had consecrated themselves and the people had not been gathered in Jerusalem.
No ka mea, aole i hiki ke hanaia ia manawa, no ka mea, aole i huikala pono na kahuna ia lakou iho, aole hoi i akoakoa mai na kanaka ma Ierusalema.
4 This proposal pleased the king and the whole assembly.
A ua pololei ia mea i na maka o ke alii, a i na maka o ka ahakanaka a pau.
5 So they established a decree to circulate a proclamation throughout Israel, from Beersheba to Dan, that the people should come to keep the Passover of the LORD, the God of Israel, in Jerusalem. For they had not observed it as a nation as prescribed.
A kau lakou i ke kanawai, e kukala aku ma Iseraela a pau loa, mai Beereseba a hiki i Dana, e hele mai lakou e hana i ka ahaaina moliaola no Iehova, ke Akua o ka Iseraela ma Ierusalema; no ka mea, ua loihi ka ia ana wa i hana ole ai lakou e like me ka mea i kakauia'i.
6 So the couriers went throughout Israel and Judah with letters from the king and his officials, which read: “Children of Israel, return to the LORD, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, so that He may return to those of you who remain, who have escaped the grasp of the kings of Assyria.
Alaila, hele aku la ka poe kukini me na palapala a ke alii, a me kona poe alii ma Iseraela a pau a me Iuda, e olelo ana e like me ke kauoha a ke alii, E na mamo a Iseraela, e huli mai ia Iehova ke Akua o Aberahama, a me Isaaka, a me Iseraela, a e huli mai no kela i ke koena, i ka poe o oukou i pakele, mai ka lima mai, o na'lii o Asuria.
7 Do not be like your fathers and brothers who were unfaithful to the LORD, the God of their fathers, so that He made them an object of horror, as you can see.
Mai noho oukou e like me ko oukou poe makua, a me ko oukou poe hoahanau, ka poe i lawehala ia Iehova ke Akua o ko lakou poe kupuna, a haawi oia ia lakou e lukuia mai, e like me ka mea a oukou e ike nei.
8 Now do not stiffen your necks as your fathers did. Submit to the LORD and come to His sanctuary, which He has consecrated forever. Serve the LORD your God, so that His fierce anger will turn away from you.
Ano, hooolea oukou i ko oukou a-i e like me ko oukou poe kupuna; e hoolilo ia oukou iho no Iehova, a e komo oukou iloko o kona wahi hoano ana i hoano mau loa ai; a e hookauwa na Iehova ko oukou Akua, i huli ae ka wela o kona huhu mai o oukou aku.
9 For if you return to the LORD, your brothers and sons will receive mercy in the presence of their captors and will return to this land. For the LORD your God is gracious and merciful; He will not turn His face away from you if you return to Him.”
No ka mea, i ko oukou huli ana ia Iehova, e loaa ke alohaia mai i ko oukou poe hoahanau, a me ka oukou poe kamalii imua o ka poe i lawe pio aku ia lakou, a e hoi hou lakou i keia aina; no ka mea, ua ahonui, a ua lokomaikai o Iehova ko oukou Akua, aole e haliu kona maka mai oukou aku, ke huli oukou ia ia.
10 And the couriers traveled from city to city through the land of Ephraim and Manasseh as far as Zebulun; but the people scorned and mocked them.
Pela i kaahele ai ka poe kukini mai kekahi kulanakauhale, i kekahi kulanakauhale ma ka aina o Eperaima, a me Manase a hiki i Zebuluna; aka, ua akaaka henehene na kanaka ia lakou me ka hoomaewaewa mai ia lakou.
11 Nevertheless, some from Asher, Manasseh, and Zebulun humbled themselves and came to Jerusalem.
Aka, o kekahi poe no Asera, a me Manase, a no Zebuluna, hoohaahaa lakou ia lakou iho, a hele mai i Ierusalema.
12 Moreover, the power of God was on the people in Judah to give them one heart to obey the command of the king and his officials according to the word of the LORD.
A maluna o ka Iuda ka lima o Iehova e haawi ia lakou i ka naau hookahi, e hana i ke kauoha a ke alii, a me na alii iho, e like me ke kanawai o Iehova.
13 In the second month, a very great assembly gathered in Jerusalem to celebrate the Feast of Unleavened Bread.
A akoakoa mai la ma Ierusalema na kanaka he nui loa e hana i ka ahaaina berena hu ole, i ka malama elua, he ahakanaka nui loa.
14 They proceeded to remove the altars in Jerusalem and to take away the incense altars and throw them into the Kidron Valley.
Alaila, ku ae la lakou iluna a lawe aku lakou i na kuahu ma Ierusalema, a lawe aku no hoi lakou i na ipuahi, a hoolei ia mau mea iloko o ke kahawai o Kederona.
15 And on the fourteenth day of the second month they slaughtered the Passover lamb. The priests and Levites were ashamed, and they consecrated themselves and brought burnt offerings to the house of the LORD.
A pepehi lakou i ka mohai moliaola i ka la umikumamaha o ka malama elua; a o na kahuna a me na Levi, ua hilahila lakou, a huikala lakou ia lakou iho, a lawe lakou i na mohaikuni iloko o ka hale o Iehova.
16 They stood at their prescribed posts, according to the Law of Moses the man of God. The priests sprinkled the blood, which they received from the hand of the Levites.
Ku ae la lakou iluna ma ko lakou wahi e like me ka lakou oihana i kauohaia'i e Mose, ke kanaka o ke Akua; a o na kahuna, kapipi iho la lakou i ke koko i loaa ia lakou ma ka lima o na Levi.
17 Since there were many in the assembly who had not consecrated themselves, the Levites were in charge of slaughtering the Passover lambs for every unclean person to consecrate the lambs to the LORD.
No ka mea, ua nui ka poe iwaena o ka ahakanaka i huikala ole ia lakou iho; nolaila, aia na Levi maluna o ka pepehi ana i ka mohai moliaola no ka poe maemae ole, i mea e huikala ai ia lakou no Iehova.
18 A large number of the people—many from Ephraim, Manasseh, Issachar, and Zebulun—had not purified themselves, yet they ate the Passover, contrary to what was written. But Hezekiah interceded for them, saying, “May the LORD, who is good, provide atonement for everyone
No ka mea, he lehulehu ka poe kanaka no Eperaima, a me Manase, a me Isekara, a me Zebuluna, aole i huikala lakou ia lakou iho, aka, ai no nae lakou i ka ahaaina moliaola, aole e like me ka mea i kakauia. Aka, pule o Hezekia no lakou, i aku la, E kala mai oe, e Iehova ka maikai,
19 who sets his heart on seeking God—the LORD, the God of his fathers—even if he is not cleansed according to the purification rules of the sanctuary.”
I kela mea keia mea i hoomakaukau i kona naau e imi i ke Akua ia Iehova, ke Akua o kona poe kupuna, aole nae i maemae e like me ka huikala ana o ka luakini.
20 And the LORD heard Hezekiah and healed the people.
Hoolohe mai o Iehova ia Hezekia, a hoola mai oia i na kanaka.
21 The Israelites who were present in Jerusalem celebrated the Feast of Unleavened Bread for seven days with great joy, and the Levites and priests praised the LORD day after day, accompanied by loud instruments of praise to the LORD.
A o ka poe mamo a Iseraela a pau ma Ierusalema, hana lakou i ka ahaaina berena hu ole i na la ehiku, me ka olioli nui: a hoolea aku na kahuna a me na mamo a Levi ia Iehova i kela la i keia la, me na mea kani ikaika ia Iehova.
22 And Hezekiah encouraged all the Levites who performed skillfully before the LORD. For seven days they ate their assigned portion, sacrificing fellowship offerings and giving thanks to the LORD, the God of their fathers.
Olelo oluolu aku o Hezekia i na Levi a pau, ka poe i ao aku ma ka ike pono ia Iehova: a ai lakou i ka ahaaina i na la ehiku, a mohai aku lakou i na mohai aloha, a hai aku lakou i ko lakou hewa ia Iehova ke Akua o ko lakou poe kupuna.
23 The whole assembly agreed to observe seven more days, so they observed seven days with joy.
A kukakuka pu ka poe ahakanaka a pau e hana i na la ehiku hou aku: a hana no lakou i na la ehiku hou aku me ka olioli.
24 For Hezekiah king of Judah contributed a thousand bulls and seven thousand sheep for the assembly, and the officials contributed a thousand bulls and ten thousand sheep for the assembly, and a great number of priests consecrated themselves.
No ka mea, ua haawi o Hezekia ke alii o ka Iuda na ka ahakanaka i hookahi tausani bipi a me na hipa ehiku tausani; a haawi na alii na ka ahakanaka i hookahi tausani bipi, a me na hipa he umi tausani: a o na kahuna he nui loa, huikala lakou ia lakou iho.
25 Then the whole assembly of Judah rejoiced along with the priests and Levites and the whole assembly that had come from Israel, including the foreigners who had come from Israel and those who lived in Judah.
Hauoli no ka ahakanaka a pau o ka Iuda, o na kahuna, a me na Levi, a o ka ahakanaka a pau i hele mai, no ka Iseraela, a me na malihini i hele mai ka aina o Iseraela mai, a me ka poe i noho ma Iuda.
26 So there was great rejoicing in Jerusalem, for nothing like this had happened there since the days of Solomon son of David king of Israel.
Ua nui ka hauoli ana ma Ierusalema: no ka mea, mai ka wa ia Solomona o ke keiki a Davida ke alii o ka Iseraela mai, aohe mea like ma Ierusalema.
27 Then the priests and the Levites stood to bless the people, and God heard their voice, and their prayer came into His holy dwelling place in heaven.
Ku ae la iluna na kahuna, a me na Levi, a hoomaikai aku i na kanaka: a ua loheia ko lakou leo, a ua hiki ka lakou pule i kona wahi hoano i ka lani.
