2 Kings 17
1 In the twelfth year of the reign of Ahaz over Judah, Hoshea son of Elah became king of Israel, and he reigned in Samaria nine years.
I KA makahiki umikumamalua o Ahaza ke alii o ka Iuda, i lilo ai o Hosea ke keiki a Ela i alii ma Samaria maluna o ka Iseraela i na makahiki eiwa.
2 And he did evil in the sight of the LORD, but not like the kings of Israel who preceded him.
A hana ino aku la ia imua o Iehova, aole nae i like me na'lii o ka Iseraela mamua ona.
3 Shalmaneser king of Assyria attacked him, and Hoshea became his vassal and paid him tribute.
Hele ku e mai la o Salemanesera ke alii o Asuria ia ia; a lilo o Hosea i kauwa nana, a hookupu aku nona.
4 But the king of Assyria discovered that Hoshea had conspired to send envoys to King So of Egypt, and that he had not paid tribute to the king of Assyria as in previous years. Therefore the king of Assyria arrested Hoshea and put him in prison.
A ike iho la ke alii o Asuria i ka manao o Hosea e kipi; no ka mea, ua hoouna aku ia i na elele ia So, ke alii o Aigupita, aole hoi ia i hookupu no ke alii o Asuria i kela makahiki keia makahiki; nolaila hoopaa aku la ke alii o Asuria ia ia, a hahao ia ia iloko o ka halepaahao.
5 Then the king of Assyria invaded the whole land, marched up to Samaria, and besieged it for three years.
Alaila pii mai la ke alii o Asuria maloko o ka aina a pau, a hele mai i Samaria, a hoopilikia aku la ia wahi i na makahiki ekolu.
6 In the ninth year of Hoshea, the king of Assyria captured Samaria and carried away the Israelites to Assyria, where he settled them in Halah, in Gozan by the Habor River, and in the cities of the Medes.
I ka makahiki eiwa o Hosea, hoopio aku la ke alii o Asuria ia Samaria, a lawe pio aku la i ka Iseraela i Asuria, a hoonoho iho la ia lakou ma Hala, a ma Habora ma ka muliwai o Gozana, a ma na kulanakauhale o ko Media.
7 All this happened because the people of Israel had sinned against the LORD their God, who had brought them out of the land of Egypt from under the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt. They had worshiped other gods
No ka mea, ua hana hewa na mamo a Iseraela ia Iehova ko lakou Akua, nana lakou i lawe ae mai ka aina o Aigupita mai, mai lalo mai o ka lima o Parao, ke alii o Aigupita, a ua malama lakou i na akua e.
8 and walked in the customs of the nations that the LORD had driven out before the Israelites, as well as in the practices introduced by the kings of Israel.
A ua hele lakou ma na kanawai o na lahuikanaka e, na mea a Iehova i kipaku ae mai ke alo aku o na mamo a Iseraela, a me ko na'lii o ka Iseraela a lakou i hana'i.
9 The Israelites secretly did things against the LORD their God that were not right. From watchtower to fortified city, they built high places in all their cities.
A ua hana malu na mamo a Iseraela i na mea pono ole ia Iehova ko lakou Akua, a ua hana no lakou i na heiau ma ko lakou mau kulanakauhale a pau, mai ka puu kaua o ka poe kiai, a hiki i ke kulanakauhale paa i ka papohaku.
10 They set up for themselves sacred pillars and Asherah poles on every high hill and under every green tree.
A kukulu lakou i na kii, i na kii hoi o Aseterota, ma na puu kiekie a pau, a malalo o na laau uliuli a pau.
11 They burned incense on all the high places like the nations that the LORD had driven out before them. They did wicked things, provoking the LORD to anger.
A malaila lakou i kuni ai i ka mea ala ma na heiau a pau, e like me na lahuikanaka a Iehova i kipaku ae mai ko lakou alo aku; a hana lakou i na mea ino e hoonaukiuki aku ia Iehova.
12 They served idols, although the LORD had told them, “You shall not do this thing.”
A malama lakou i na kii, i na mea a Iehova i i mai ai, Mai hana oukou i keia mea.
13 Yet through all His prophets and seers, the LORD warned Israel and Judah, saying, “Turn from your wicked ways and keep My commandments and statutes, according to the entire Law that I commanded your fathers and delivered to you through My servants the prophets.”
Aka, ua ao mai no o Iehova i ka Iseraela, a i ka Iuda, ma na kaula a pau, ma na mea ike a pau, i ka i ana mai, E huli mai oukou mai ko oukou aoao hewa mai, a e malama i ka'u mau kauoha, i ko'u mau kanawai, e like me ke kanawai a pau a'u i kauoha aku ai i ko oukou poe kupuna, a ma ka mea a'u i hoouna aku ai ma ka'u poe kauwa ma na kaula.
14 But they would not listen, and they stiffened their necks like their fathers, who did not believe the LORD their God.
Aole nae lakou i malama, hooolea lakou i ko lakou a-i, e like me ka a-i o ko lakou poe kupuna, ka poe manaoio ole ia Iehova ko lakou Akua.
15 They rejected His statutes and the covenant He had made with their fathers, as well as the decrees He had given them. They pursued worthless idols and themselves became worthless, going after the surrounding nations that the LORD had commanded them not to imitate.
A hoowahawaha lakou i kona mau kanawai, a me kana berita ana i hana'i me ko lakou poe kupuna, a me na kauoha ana i haawi mai ai ia lakou; a hele lakou mamuli o na kii lapuwale, a lilo lakou i poe lapuwale, a hele mamuli o na lahuikanaka e puni ana ia lakou, na mea a Iehova i kauoha mai ai, mai hana like oukou me lakou.
16 They abandoned all the commandments of the LORD their God and made for themselves two cast idols of calves and an Asherah pole. They bowed down to all the host of heaven and served Baal.
A haalele lakou i na kauoha a pau a Iehova ko lakou Akua, a hana no lakou i kii i hooheeheeia, i elua keikibipi, a hana lakou i kii no Aseterota, a hoomana lakou i na puali o ka lani, a malama lakou ia Baala.
17 They sacrificed their sons and daughters in the fire and practiced divination and soothsaying. They devoted themselves to doing evil in the sight of the LORD, provoking Him to anger.
A kaumaha aku i ka lakou poe keikikane, a me ka lakou poe kaikamahine i ke ahi, a hana lakou i ka anaana hookilokilo, a hoolilo lakou ia lakou iho e hana hewa imua o Iehova, e hoonaukiuki ia ia.
18 So the LORD was very angry with Israel, and He removed them from His presence. Only the tribe of Judah remained,
No ia mea, inaina nui mai la o Iehova i ka Iseraela, a hookuke aku la ia lakou mai kona maka aku; aohe mea i koe, o ka ohana o ka Iuda wale no.
19 and even Judah did not keep the commandments of the LORD their God, but lived according to the customs Israel had introduced.
Aole no hoi i malama ka Iuda i na kauoha a Iehova ko lakou Akua; aka, hele no lakou ma na kanawai o ka Iseraela a lakou i hana'i.
20 So the LORD rejected all the descendants of Israel. He afflicted them and delivered them into the hands of plunderers, until He had banished them from His presence.
A hoowahawaha o Iehova i na mamo a pau a Iseraela, a hookaumaha ia lakou, a haawi aku ia lakou iloko o ka lima o ka poe luku wale, a pau lakou i ka hooleiia'ku e ia mai kona maka aku.
21 When the LORD had torn Israel away from the house of David, they made Jeroboam son of Nebat king, and Jeroboam led Israel away from following the LORD and caused them to commit a great sin.
No ka mea, hoonahae ae la ia i ka Iseraela mai ko ka hale o Davida aku; a hooalii lakou ia Ieroboama ke keiki a Nebata: a hookuke aku la o Ieroboama i ka Iseraela mai ka hahai ana ia Iehova, a hoolilo ia lakou i ka hewa nui.
22 The Israelites persisted in all the sins that Jeroboam had committed and did not turn away from them.
No ka mea, hele no na mamo a Iseraela iloko o na hewa a pau o Ieroboama ana i hana'i; aole lakou i haalele ia mea;
23 Finally, the LORD removed Israel from His presence, as He had declared through all His servants the prophets. So Israel was exiled from their homeland into Assyria, where they are to this day.
A hiki i ka wa a Iehova i hoonee aku ai i ka Iseraela mai kona maka aku, e like me kana i olelo mai ai ma kana poe kauwa a pau, ma na kaula. A laweia'ku ka Iseraela mai kona aina aku i Asuria, a hiki i keia la.
24 Then the king of Assyria brought people from Babylon, Cuthah, Avva, Hamath, and Sepharvaim and settled them in the towns of Samaria to replace the Israelites. They took possession of Samaria and lived in its towns.
A lawe mai ke alii o Asuria [i na kanaka] mai Babulona mai, a mai Kuta mai, a mai Ava mai, a mai Hamata mai, a mai Separevaima mai, a hoonoho ia lakou ma na kulanakauhale o Samaria, ma kahi o na mamo a Iseraela; a komo lakou i Samaria, a noho iho la ma kona mau kulanakauhale.
25 Now when the settlers first lived there, they did not worship the LORD, so He sent lions among them, which killed some of them.
A i ko lakou hoomaka ana e noho malaila, aole lakou i makau ia Iehova; a hoouna mai o Iehova i na liona iwaena o lakou, a pepehi mai i kekahi poe o lakou.
26 So they spoke to the king of Assyria, saying, “The peoples that you have removed and placed in the cities of Samaria do not know the requirements of the God of the land. Because of this, He has sent lions among them, which are indeed killing them off.”
A olelo aku la lakou i ke alii o Asuria, i aku la, O na lahuikanaka au i lawe mai ai a hoonoho ma na kulanakauhale o Samaria, aole lakou i ike i ke ano o ke Akua o ka aina: nolaila, ua hoouna mai ia i na liona iwaena o lakou, aia hoi, ke luku mai nei ia lakou no ko lakou ike ole i ke ano o ke Akua o ka aina.
27 Then the king of Assyria commanded: “Send back one of the priests you carried off from Samaria, and have him go back to live there and teach the requirements of the God of the land.”
Alaila kauoha mai la ke alii o Asuria, i mai la, E lawe aku ilaila i kekahi o na kahuna a oukou i lawe mai nei mai laila mai; a e hele lakou a noho malaila, a e hoike aku oia ia lakou i ke ano o ke Akua o ka aina.
28 Thus one of the priests they had carried away came and lived in Bethel, and he began to teach them how they should worship the LORD.
Alaila hele mai kekahi o na kahuna a lakou i lawe ae mai Samaria aku, a noho ma Betela, a ao aku ia ia lakou e makau lakou ia Iehova.
29 Nevertheless, the people of each nation continued to make their own gods in the cities where they had settled, and they set them up in the shrines that the people of Samaria had made on the high places.
Aka, hana aku no kela lahuikanaka keia luhuikanaka i na akua no lakou iho, a kukulu ma na hale o na heiau a ko Samaria i hana'i, o kela lahuikanaka keia lahuikanaka ma ko lakou mau kulanakauhale, kahi a lakou i noho ai.
30 The men of Babylon made Succoth-benoth, the men of Cuth made Nergal, the men of Hamath made Ashima,
A hana aku la na kanaka no Babulona ia Sukote-benota, a hana aku la na kanaka no Kuta ia Neregala, a hana aku na kanaka no Hamata ia Asima,
31 the Avvites made Nibhaz and Tartak, and the Sepharvites burned their children in the fire to Adrammelech and Anammelech the gods of the Sepharvaim.
A hana aku ko Ava ia Nibehaza, a me Taretaka, a kaumaha aku la ko Separevaima i ka lakou keiki i ke ahi no Aderameleka, a no Anameleka, na akua o ko Separevaima.
32 So the new residents worshiped the LORD, but they also appointed for themselves priests of all sorts to serve in the shrines of the high places.
A makau lakou ia Iehova, a hana lakou, noloko mai o ko lakou poe ilalo loa, i kahuna na lakou no na heiau, a kaumaha aku lakou no lakou la iloko o na hale o na heiau.
33 They worshiped the LORD, but they also served their own gods according to the customs of the nations from which they had been carried away.
Makau no lakou ia Iehova, a malama lakou i ko lakou mau akua iho, e like me na lahuikanaka, a lakou i lawe pio ai mai laila aku.
34 To this day they are still practicing their former customs. None of them worship the LORD or observe the statutes, ordinances, laws, and commandments that the LORD gave the descendants of Jacob, whom He named Israel.
A hiki i keia wa, hana no lakou ma ke ano o na mea mamua: aole lakou e makau ia Iehova, aole lakou e hana e like me ko lakou mau kanawai, a me ka lakou olelo kupaa, a me ke kanawai a me ke kauoha a Iehova i kauoha mai ai i na mamo a Iakoba, ka mea ana i kapa iho ai o Iseraela;
35 For the LORD had made a covenant with the Israelites and commanded them, “Do not worship other gods or bow down to them; do not serve them or sacrifice to them.
I ka poe a Iehova i hookuikahi ai, a kauona ia lakou, i aku la, Mai makau oukou i na akua e, mai kulou oukou ilalo ia lakou, mai malama ia lakou, mai kaumaha aku no lakou.
36 Instead, worship the LORD, who brought you out of the land of Egypt with great power and an outstretched arm. You are to bow down to Him and offer sacrifices to Him.
Aka, o Iehova, nana oukou i lawe ae mai ka aina o Aigupita mai me ka mana, a me ka lima kakauha, oia ka oukou e makau ai, a e hoomana ai, a nona oukou e kaumaha aku ai.
37 And you must always be careful to observe the statutes, ordinances, laws, and commandments He wrote for you. Do not worship other gods.
A o na olelo, a me ka olelo kupaa o ke kanawai, a me ke kauoha ana i kakau ai no oukou, oia ka oukou e ao e malama i na la a pau; a mai makau i na akua e.
38 Do not forget the covenant I have made with you. Do not worship other gods,
A mai hoopoina oukou i ka berita a'u i hana'i me oukou; mai makau hoi oukou i na akua e.
39 but worship the LORD your God, and He will deliver you from the hands of all your enemies.”
Aka, o Iehova ko oukou Akua, oia ka oukou e makau ai; a nana no oukou e hoopakele i ka lima o ko oukou poe enemi a pau.
40 But they would not listen, and they persisted in their former customs.
Aole nae lakou i hoolohe, aka, hana no lakou ma ke ano o na mea mamua.
41 So these nations worshiped the LORD but also served their idols, and to this day their children and grandchildren continue to do as their fathers did.
A makau keia mau lahuikanaka ia Iehova, a malama lakou i ko lakou kiikalai, o ka lakou poe keiki a me na keiki a ka lakou poe keiki; e like me ka mea a ko lakou makua i hana'i, pela ka lakou hana ana a hiki i keia la.
