< 2 Kings 23 >
1 Then the king summoned all the elders of Judah and Jerusalem.
A HOOUNA aku la ke alii, a hoakoakoa lakou io na la i na lunakahiko a pau o ka Iuda a me Ierusalema.
2 And he went up to the house of the LORD with all the people of Judah and Jerusalem, as well as the priests and the prophets—all the people small and great—and in their hearing he read all the words of the Book of the Covenant that had been found in the house of the LORD.
A pii ae la ke alii i ka hale o Iehova, a o na kanaka a pau o ka Iuda, a me na kanaka a pau o Ierusalema me ia, o na kahuna, a me na kaula, a me na kanaka a pau, ka mea uuku, a me ka mea nui: a heluhelu no ia iloko o ko lakou pepeiao i na olelo a pau o ka buke o ke kanawai i loaa ma ka hale o Iehova.
3 So the king stood by the pillar and made a covenant before the LORD to follow the LORD and to keep His commandments, decrees, and statutes with all his heart and all his soul, and to carry out the words of this covenant that were written in this book. And all the people entered into the covenant.
A ku iho la ke alii maluna o ka awai, a hana no ia i berita imua o Iehova, e hahai mamuli o Iehova, a e malama i kana mau kauoha, a me kana olelo hoike, a me kona mau kanawai, me ka naau a pau, a me ka uhane a pau, e hookupaa i ka olelo o keia berita i kakauia ma keia buke. A kupaa na kanaka a pau ma ka berita.
4 Then the king commanded Hilkiah the high priest, the priests second in rank, and the doorkeepers to remove from the temple of the LORD all the articles made for Baal, Asherah, and all the host of heaven. And he burned them outside Jerusalem in the fields of Kidron and carried their ashes to Bethel.
A kauoha aku la ke alii ia Hilekia ke kahuna nui a me na kahuna no ka lua o ka papa, a me na kiaipuka, e lawe mai iwaho o ka luakini o Iehova i na kiaha i hanaia no Baala, a no Aseterota, a no na puali o ka lani: a puhi aku la oia ia lakou mawaho o Ierusalema a ma na kihapai o Kederona, a lawe aku la i ka lehu o lakou i Betela.
5 Josiah also did away with the idolatrous priests ordained by the kings of Judah to burn incense on the high places of the cities of Judah and in the places all around Jerusalem—those who had burned incense to Baal, to the sun and moon, to the constellations, and to all the host of heaven.
A hooki iho la ia i na kahuna hoomanakii a na'lii o ka Iuda i hoonoho ai, i mea e Irani ai i ka mea ala ma na heiau ma na kulanakauhale o ka Iuda, a ma na wahi e puni ana i Ierusalema; i ka poe kuni i ka mea ala ia Baala, i ka la, i ka mahina. a i ka poe hoku o ke kaei, a i na puali a pau o ka lani.
6 He brought the Asherah pole from the house of the LORD to the Kidron Valley outside Jerusalem, and there he burned it, ground it to powder, and threw its dust on the graves of the common people.
A lawe aku la ia i na kii o Aseterota mai ka hale o Iehova aku mawaho o Ierusalema ma ke kahawai o Kederona, a puhi aku la ia mea ma ke kahawai o Kederona, a kui iho la a aeae me he lepo la, a hoolei aku la i kona lepo maluna o na luakupapau o na kanaka.
7 He also tore down the quarters of the male shrine prostitutes that were in the house of the LORD, where the women had woven tapestries for Asherah.
A wawahi iho la ia i na hale o ka poe sodomi e kokoke ana ma ka hale o Iehova, kahi a ka poe wahine hana lole i hana'i i na halelewa no na kii o Aseterota.
8 Then Josiah brought all the priests from the cities of Judah and desecrated the high places, from Geba to Beersheba, where the priests had burned incense. He tore down the high places of the gates at the entrance of the gate of Joshua the governor of the city, which was to the left of the city gate.
A lawe mai no ia i na kahuna a pau mai na kulanakauhale o ka Iuda mai, a hoohaumia i na heiau kahi a na kahuna i kuni ai i ka mea ala, mai Geba mai a i Beereseba, a wawahi aku la i na heiau o na ipuka ma ke komo aua o ka ipuka o Iehosua, ka luna o ke kulanakauhale, i na mea ma ka lima hema o ka ipuka o ke kulanakauhale.
9 Although the priests of the high places did not come up to the altar of the LORD in Jerusalem, they ate unleavened bread with their fellow priests.
Aka, aole i pii mai na kahuna o na heiau i ke kuahu o Iehova, aka, ai no lakou i ka berena huole me ko lakou poe hoahanau.
10 He also desecrated Topheth in the Valley of Ben-hinnom so that no one could sacrifice his son or daughter in the fire to Molech.
A hoohaumia no ia i Topeta, aia no ia ma ke awawa o na keiki a Hinoma, i ole ai e hoohele aku kekahi kanaka i kana keikikane a i kana kaikamahine iloko o ke ahi no Moleka.
11 And he removed from the entrance to the house of the LORD the horses that the kings of Judah had dedicated to the sun. They were in the court near the chamber of an official named Nathan-melech. And Josiah burned up the chariots of the sun.
A lawe aku ia i na lio, i na mea a na'lii o ka Iuda i kukulu ai no ka la, ma ke komo ana i ka hale o Iehova ma ke keena maluna o Natanemeleka, ka lunahale, ka mea ma na wahi e pili ana, a puhi aku la i ke ahi i na halekaa no ka la.
12 He pulled down the altars that the kings of Judah had set up on the roof near the upper chamber of Ahaz, and the altars that Manasseh had set up in the two courtyards of the house of the LORD. The king pulverized them there and threw their dust into the Kidron Valley.
A o na kuahu maluna ma ke keena iluna o ka hale o Ahaza, na mea a na'lii o ka Iuda i hana'i, a me na kuahu a Manase i hana'i ma na kahua elua o ka hale o Iehova, oia ka ke alii i luku ai, a wawahi iho mai laila mai, a hoolei aku la i ko lakou lepo iloko o ke kahawai o Kederona.
13 The king also desecrated the high places east of Jerusalem, to the south of the Mount of Corruption, which King Solomon of Israel had built for Ashtoreth the abomination of the Sidonians, for Chemosh the abomination of the Moabites, and for Milcom the abomination of the Ammonites.
A o na heiau imua o Ierusalema, ma ka lima akau o ka mauna make, na mea a Solomona ke alii o ka Iseraela i hana'i no Aseterota, ka mea hoopailua o ko Zidona, a no Kemosa, ka mea hoopailua o ka Moaba, a no Milekoma, ka mea hoopailua o na mamo a Amona, oia ka ke alii i hoohaumia ai.
14 He smashed the sacred pillars to pieces, cut down the Asherah poles, and covered the sites with human bones.
A wawahi iho la ia i na kii, a kua ilalo i na kii o Aseterota, a hoopiha i ko lakou mau wahi i na iwi kanaka.
15 He even pulled down the altar at Bethel, the high place set up by Jeroboam son of Nebat, who had caused Israel to sin. Then he burned the high place, ground it to powder, and burned the Asherah pole.
A o ke kuahu hoi ma Betela, a o ka heiau a Ieroboama i hana'i, a ke keiki a Nebata, nana i hoolilo ka Iseraela i ka hewa, o ua kuahu la, a me ka heiau, oia kana i wawahi ai, a puhi aku i ka heiau, a kui iho la a aeae me he lepo la, a puhi aku la i na kii o Aseterota.
16 And as Josiah turned, he saw the tombs there on the hillside, and he sent someone to take the bones out of the tombs, and he burned them on the altar to defile it, according to the word of the LORD proclaimed by the man of God who had foretold these things.
Huli ae la o Iosia, a ike aku la i na halelua malaila ma ka puu, a hoouna aku la, a lawe mai i na iwi mai na halelua mai, a puhi aku la maluna o ke kuahu, a hoohaumia iho la ia mea e like me ka olelo a Iehova, ka mea a ke kanaka o ke Akua i hai mai, nana i hai mai keia mau olelo.
17 Then the king asked, “What is this monument I see?” And the men of the city replied, “It is the tomb of the man of God who came from Judah and pronounced these things that you have done to the altar of Bethel.”
A ninau aku la ia, Heaha keia kia a'u e ike nei? I mai la na kanaka o ke kulanakauhale ia ia, O ka halelua ia o ke kanaka o ke Akua, ka mea i hele mai Iuda mai, a hai mai i keia mau mea au i hana'i i ke kuahu o Betela.
18 “Let him rest,” said Josiah. “Do not let anyone disturb his bones.” So they left his bones undisturbed, along with those of the prophet who had come from Samaria.
A i aku la ia, E waiho malie ia ia, mai lawelawe kekahi kanaka i kona mau iwi. A hoopakele lakou i kona mau iwi me na iwi o ke kaula, ka mea i hele ae mai Samaria mai.
19 Just as Josiah had done at Bethel, so also in the cities of Samaria he removed all the shrines of the high places set up by the kings of Israel who had provoked the LORD to anger.
A o na hale a pau o na heiau ma na kulanakauhale o Samaria, na mea a na'lii o ka Iseraela i hana'i e hoonaukiuki aku, oia ka Iosia i lawe aku ai, a hana ia lakou e like me na hana a pau ana i hana aku ai ma Betela.
20 On the altars he slaughtered all the priests of the high places, and he burned human bones on them. Then he returned to Jerusalem.
A kaumaha aku la ia i na kahuna o na heiau, i ka poe malaila, maluna o na kuahu, a puhi aku la i na iwi kanaka maluna o lakou, a hoi aku la i Ierusalema.
21 The king commanded all the people, “Keep the Passover of the LORD your God, as it is written in this Book of the Covenant.”
Kauoha aku la ke alii i na kanaka a pau, i aku la, E malama oukou i ka moliaola no Iehova ko oukou Akua, e like me ka mea i kakauia ma ka buke o keia kanawai.
22 No such Passover had been observed from the days of the judges who had governed Israel through all the days of the kings of Israel and Judah.
No ia mea, aole i malamaia ka moliaola e like me keia mai ka manawa mai o na lunakanawai, nana i hooponopono ka Iseraela, aole hoi i ka manawa a pau o na'lii o ka Iseraela, a me na'lii o ka Iuda.
23 But in the eighteenth year of Josiah’s reign, this Passover was observed to the LORD in Jerusalem.
I ka makahiki umikumamawalu o Iosia ke alii, ua malamaia keia moliaola no Iehova ma Ierusalema.
24 Furthermore, Josiah removed the mediums and spiritists, the household gods and idols, and all the abominations that were seen in the land of Judah and in Jerusalem. He did this to carry out the words of the law written in the book that Hilkiah the priest had found in the house of the LORD.
A o na wahiue ninau i na uhane ino, a me ka poe anaana, a me na kii, a me na kii laau, a o na mea hoopailua a pau, na mea i ikeia ma ka aina o ka Iuda, a ma Ierusalema, oia mau mea ka Iosia i lawe aku, i hooko ai oia i na olelo o ke kanawai i kakauia ma ka buke i loaa ia Hilekia ke kahuna ma ka hale o Iehova.
25 Neither before nor after Josiah was there any king like him, who turned to the LORD with all his heart and with all his soul and with all his strength, according to all the Law of Moses.
Aohe alii mamua ona e like ai me ia, nana i huli ae ia Iehova me kona naau a pau, a me kona uhane a pau, a me kona ikaika a pau mamuli o ke kanawai a pau o Mose; a mahope mai ona, aole i ku mai kekahi e like me ia.
26 Nevertheless, the LORD did not turn away from the fury of His burning anger, which was kindled against Judah because of all that Manasseh had done to provoke Him to anger.
Aka, aole o Iehova i huli ae mai kona inaina nui, ana i inaina ai i ka Iuda, no na hoonaukiuki a pau a Manase i hoonaukiuki aku ai ia ia.
27 For the LORD had said, “I will remove Judah from My sight, just as I removed Israel. I will reject this city Jerusalem, which I chose, and the temple of which I said, ‘My Name shall be there.’”
A i mai la o Iehova, E lawe aku hoi au i ka Iuda mai ko'u alo aku, e like me ka'u i lawe aku ai i ka Iseraela, a e hoowahawaha aku au i keia kulanakauhale o Ierusalema, kahi a'u i wae ai, a me ka hale a'u i olelo ai, Malaila ko'u inoa.
28 As for the rest of the acts of Josiah, along with all his accomplishments, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?
A o na hana i koe a Iosia, a o na mea a pau ana i hana'i, aole anei i kakauia lakou iloko o ka buke oihanaalii a na'lii o ka Iuda.
29 At the end of Josiah’s reign, Pharaoh Neco king of Egypt marched up to help the king of Assyria at the Euphrates River. King Josiah went out to confront him, but Neco faced him and killed him at Megiddo.
I kona manawa, pii ae la o Parao-neko, ke alii o Aigupita, e ku e i ke alii o Asuria ma ka muliwai o Euperate; a hele ku e aku la o Iosia ia ia: a pepehi mai kela ia ia ma Megido, i kona manawa i ike ai ia ia.
30 From Megiddo his servants carried his body in a chariot, brought him to Jerusalem, and buried him in his own tomb. Then the people of the land took Jehoahaz son of Josiah, anointed him, and made him king in place of his father.
A lawe aku la kana poe kauwa ia ia ua make ma ka halekaa mai Megido mai, a hali mai ia ia i Ierusalema, a kanu iho la ia ia iloko o kona halelua. A lawe aku la na kanaka o ka aina ia Iehoahaza ke keiki a Iosia, a poni ia ia, a hooalii ia ia ma ka hakahaka o kona makuakane.
31 Jehoahaz was twenty-three years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem three months. His mother’s name was Hamutal daughter of Jeremiah; she was from Libnah.
He iwakaluakumamakolu na makahiki o Iehoahaza i kona wa i lilo ai i alii; a ekolu malama ana i noho alii ai ma Ierusalema. A o Hamutela ka inoa o kona makuwahine, ke kaikamahine a Ieremia no Libena.
32 And he did evil in the sight of the LORD, just as his fathers had done.
A hana hewa aku la ia imua o Iehova, e like me na mea a pau a kona poe kupuna i hana'i.
33 And Pharaoh Neco imprisoned Jehoahaz at Riblah in the land of Hamath so that he could not reign in Jerusalem, and he imposed on Judah a levy of a hundred talents of silver and a talent of gold.
A hoopaa aku la o Parao-neko ia ia ma Ribela i ka aina o Hamata, no kona noho alii ana ma Ierusalema; a auhau aku la i ka aina i hookahi haneri talena kala, a i hookahi talena gula.
34 Then Pharaoh Neco made Eliakim son of Josiah king in place of his father Josiah, and he changed Eliakim’s name to Jehoiakim. But Neco took Jehoahaz and carried him off to Egypt, where he died.
A hooalii aku la o Parao-neko ia Eliakima ke keiki a Iosia ma ka hakahaka o Iosia kona makuakane, a hoololi ae la i kona inoa i Iehoiakima, a lalau aku la oia ia Iehoahaza, a lawe aku la i Aigupita, a make iho la ia ilaila.
35 So Jehoiakim paid the silver and gold to Pharaoh Neco, but to meet Pharaoh’s demand he taxed the land and exacted the silver and the gold from the people, each according to his wealth.
A haawi aku la o Iehoiakima i ke kala a me ke gula ia Parao; a auhau aku la oia i ka aina e haawi aku ia e like me ke kauoha a Parao; auhau aku la ia i ke kala a me ke gula o na kanaka o ka aina, i kela kanaka keia kanaka, e like me kona auhauia'na, e haawi aku ia no Parao-neko.
36 Jehoiakim was twenty-five years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem eleven years. His mother’s name was Zebidah daughter of Pedaiah; she was from Rumah.
He iwakaluakumamalima na makahiki o Iehoiakima i kona wa i lilo ai i alii, a he umikumamakahi na makahiki ana i noho alii ai ma Ierusalema. A o Zebuda ka inoa o kona makuwahine, ke kaikamahine a Pedaia no Ruma.
37 And he did evil in the sight of the LORD, just as his fathers had done.
A hana ino aku la ia imua o Iehova, e like me na mea a pau a kona poe kupuna i hana'i.
