Isaiah 36
1 In the fourteenth year of Hezekiah’s reign, Sennacherib king of Assyria attacked and captured all the fortified cities of Judah.
I KA makahiki umikumamaha o ke alii, o Hezekia, pii ku e mai la Sanekariba ke alii o Asuria, i na kulanakauhale a pau i paa i ka pa o ka Iuda, a hoopio iho la ia lakou.
2 And the king of Assyria sent the Rabshakeh, with a great army, from Lachish to King Hezekiah at Jerusalem. And he stopped by the aqueduct of the upper pool, on the road to the Launderer’s Field.
A hoouna ae la ke alii o Asuria ia Rabesake, mai Lakisa ae, a i Ierusalema, i ke alii io Hezekia la, me na koa he nui loa. A ku iho la oia ma ka auwai o ka waipuna luna, ma ke ala e hiki aku ai i ke kula o ka mea holoi lole.
3 Then Eliakim son of Hilkiah the palace administrator, Shebna the scribe, and Joah son of Asaph the recorder, went out to him.
Alaila, hele aku la io na la, o Eliakima, ke keiki a Hilekia, o ka mea maluna o ko ka hale, a me Sebena, ke kakauolelo, a me Ioa, ke keiki a Asana, ke kakaumooolelo.
4 The Rabshakeh said to them, “Tell Hezekiah that this is what the great king, the king of Assyria, says: What is the basis of this confidence of yours?
I mai la o Rabesake ia lakou, E i aku oukou ia Hezekia, ke olelo mai nei ke alii nui, ke alii o Asuria penei, Heaha keia hilinai ana au e hilinai nei?
5 You claim to have a strategy and strength for war, but these are empty words. In whom are you now trusting, that you have rebelled against me?
Ke olelo nei au, he olelo lapuwale kou akamai a me kou ikaika i ke kaua. Ke hilinai aku nei oe ia wai, i kipi mai ai oe ia'u?
6 Look now, you are trusting in Egypt, that splintered reed of a staff that will pierce the hand of anyone who leans on it. Such is Pharaoh king of Egypt to all who trust in him.
Aia ka! ke hilinai nei oe i ke kookoo o keia ohe naha, o Aigupita, ka mea e komo ai i ka lima a puka, ke hilinai ke kanaka maluna ona. Pela o Parao, ke alii o Aigupita i ka poe a pau i hilinai maluna ona.
7 But if you say to me, ‘We trust in the LORD our God,’ is He not the One whose high places and altars Hezekiah has removed, saying to Judah and Jerusalem, ‘You must worship before this altar’?
Aka, ina olelo mai oe ia'u. Ke hilinai aku nei makou ia Iehova, i ko makou Akua; aole anei oia ka mea nona na wahi kiekie, a nona hoi na kuahu a Hezekia i wawahi ai, a ua olelo no hoi i ka Iuda, a i ko Ierusalema, Mamua o keia kuahu oukou e hoomana'i?
8 Now, therefore, make a bargain with my master, the king of Assyria. I will give you two thousand horses—if you can put riders on them!
Ano la, ea, e hoolimalima oe me kuu haku, me ke alii o Asuria, a e haawi aku no au ia oe i elua tausani lio, ina paha e hiki ia oe ke hoonoho i na hololio maluna o lakou.
9 For how can you repel a single officer among the least of my master’s servants when you depend on Egypt for chariots and horsemen?
Pehea hoi oe e hoohuli aku ai i ka maka o kekahi luna uuku o na kauwa a kuu haku, a hilinai hoi maluna o Aigupita, no na kaakaua, a no na hololio?
10 So now, was it apart from the LORD that I have come up against this land to destroy it? The LORD Himself said to me, ‘Go up against this land and destroy it.’”
Ano hoi, aole anei o Iehova kekahi pu me au i pii mai nei i keia aina, e luku ia? Ua olelo mai no o Iehova ia'u, E pii ae oe i keia aina, a e luku iho ia.
11 Then Eliakim, Shebna, and Joah said to the Rabshakeh, “Please speak to your servants in Aramaic, since we understand it. Do not speak to us in Hebrew in the hearing of the people on the wall.”
Alaila, olelo aku la o Eliakima, a me Sebena, a me Ioa, ia Rabesake, Ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e olelo mai oe i kau mau kauwa nei ma ka olelo Suria, no ka mea, ua ike makou ia. Mai olelo mai ma ka olelo Iudaio, ma na pepeiao o na kanaka maluna o ka pa.
12 But the Rabshakeh replied, “Has my master sent me to speak these words only to you and your master, and not to the men sitting on the wall, who are destined with you to eat their own dung and drink their own urine?”
Aka, olelo mai la o Rabesake, Ua hoouna mai nei anei ko'u haku ia'u i kou haku, a iou la, e olelo i keia mau olelo? Aole anei i ka poe kanaka e noho ana ma ka pa, i ai lakou i ko lakou lepo iho, a inu hoi i ko lakou mimi iho me oukou?
13 Then the Rabshakeh stood and called out loudly in Hebrew: “Hear the words of the great king, the king of Assyria!
Alaila, ku mai la o Rabesake, a hea ae la me ka leo nui, ma ka olelo Iudaio, i ae la, E hoolohe mai oukou i na olelo a ke alii nui, ke alii o Asuria.
14 This is what the king says: Do not let Hezekiah deceive you, for he cannot deliver you.
Ke i mai nei ke alii penei, Mai walewale oukou ia Hezekia, no ka mea, aole e hiki ia ia ke hoopakele ia oukou.
15 Do not let Hezekiah persuade you to trust in the LORD when he says, ‘The LORD will surely deliver us; this city will not be given into the hand of the king of Assyria.’
Mai ae aku i ko Hezekia hooikaika ana ia oukou e hilinai ia Iehova, i ka i ana iho, E oiaio no e hoopakele o Iehova ia kakou; aole e haawiia keia kulanakauhale iloko o ka lima o ke alii o Asuria.
16 Do not listen to Hezekiah, for this is what the king of Assyria says: Make peace with me and come out to me. Then every one of you will eat from his own vine and his own fig tree, and drink water from his own cistern,
Mai hoolohe i ka Hezekia; no ka mea, ke olelo mai nei ke alii o Asuria penei, E hana oukou me au i kuikahi, a e puka mai iwaho io'u nei; a e ai kela mea keia mea o oukou i ko kona kumu waina, a i ko kona laau fiku, a e inu hoi keia mea, keia mea o oukou i ka wai o kona luawai iho;
17 until I come and take you away to a land like your own—a land of grain and new wine, a land of bread and vineyards.
A hiki aku au, a lawe aku ia oukou i ka aina e like me ko oukou aina iho, he aina ai, a waina hoi, he aina berena, a me na pawaina.
18 Do not let Hezekiah mislead you when he says, ‘The LORD will deliver us.’ Has the god of any nation ever delivered his land from the hand of the king of Assyria?
E ao oukou, o hoowalewale mai o Hezekia ia oukou, i ka i ana mai, E hoopakele mai no o Iehova ia kakou. Ua hoopakele anei na akua o kekahi lahuikanaka i ko lakou aina iho, mai ka lima aku o ke alii o Asuria?
19 Where are the gods of Hamath and Arpad? Where are the gods of Sepharvaim? Have they delivered Samaria from my hand?
Aia la ihea na'kua o Hamata a me Arepada? Auhea hoi na'kua o Separevaima? Ua hoopakele anei lakou ia Samaria mai ko'u lima aku?
20 Who among all the gods of these lands has delivered his land from my hand? How then can the LORD deliver Jerusalem from my hand?”
Owai la ka mea o na'kua o ia mau aina a pau nana i hoopakele i kona aina iho, mai ko'u lima aku, i hoopakele ai o Iehova ia Ierusalema, mai ko'u lima aku?
21 But the people remained silent and did not answer a word, for Hezekiah had commanded, “Do not answer him.”
Ekemu ole lakou, aole i olelo aku ia ia i kekahi huaolelo; no ka mea, oia ke kauoha a ke alii, i mai la, Mai olelo aku ia ia.
22 Then Hilkiah’s son Eliakim the palace administrator, Shebna the scribe, and Asaph’s son Joah the recorder came to Hezekiah with their clothes torn, and they relayed to him the words of the Rabshakeh.
Alaila, hele mai la o Eliakima, ke keiki a Hilekia, ka mea maluna o ko ka hale, a me Sebena, ke kakauolelo, a me Ioa, ke keiki a Asapa, ke kakaumooolelo, io Hezekia la, me ka haehaeia o ka lole, a hai ae la ia ia i na olelo a Rabesake.
