Chronicles II 14
1 And Abia died with his fathers, and they buried him in the city of David; and Asa his son reigned in his stead. In the days of Asa the land of Juda had rest ten years.
A HIAMOE o Abiia me kona mau kupuna, a kanu lakou ia ia ma ke kulanakauhale o Davida; a noho alii iho la o Asa, kana keiki mahope ona. I kona mau la, ua maluhia ka aina i na makahiki he umi.
2 And he did that which was good and right in the sight of the Lord his God.
Hana iho la o Asa i ka maikai a me ka pololei, imua o Iehova kona Akua.
3 And he removed the altars of the strange [gods], and the high places, and broke the pillars in pieces, and cut down the groves:
Lawe aku la oia i na kuahu o na akua e, a me na wahi kiekie, wawahi iho la oia i na kii, kulai no hoi i na kii o Asetarota.
4 and he told Juda to seek earnestly the Lord God of their fathers, and to perform the law and commandments.
A kauoha ae la oia i ka Iuda e imi ia Iehova i ke Akua o ko lakou kupuna, a e malama i kona kanawai, a me kana kauoha.
5 And he removed from all the cities of Juda the altars and the idols, and established in quietness
Lawe aku la ia mailoko aku o na kulanakauhale a pau o Iuda, i na wahi kiekie, a me na kii; a maluhia iho la ke aupuni imua ona.
6 fortified cities in the land of Juda; for the land was quiet, and he had no war in these years; for the Lord gave him rest.
A kukulu iho la ia i na kulanakauhale paa i ka pa ma Iuda; no ka mea, ua maluhia ka aina, aohe ona kaua i kela mau makahiki, no ka mea, hoomalu mai o Iehova ia ia.
7 And he said to Juda, Let us fortify these cities, and make walls, and towers, and gates, and bars: we shall prevail over the land, for as we have sought out the Lord our God, he has sought out us, and has given us rest round about, and prospered us.
Olelo aku la oia i ka Iuda, Ina kakou, e kukulu kakou i keia mau kulanakauhale, e hana a puni i na pa, a me na halekiai, a me na ipuka, a me na mea e paa ai, oiai ka aina ia kakou; no ka mea, ua imi kakou ia Iehova, i ko kakou Akua, ua imi no kakou, a ua hoomalu mai ia ia kakou a puni: a kukulu ae la lakou me ka pomaikai.
8 And Asa had a force of armed men bearing shields and spears in the land of Juda, [even] three hundred thousand, and in the land of Benjamin two hundred and eighty thousand targeteers and archers: all these were mighty warriors.
Aia ia Asa he poe koa, he poe lawe palekaua a me na ihe, noloko mai o Iuda ekolu haneri tausani; a noloko mai o Beniamina, he poe lawe i na aahuapoo, a he poe lena i na kakaka, elua haneri a me kanawalu tausani; he poe koa ikaika keia poe a pau loa.
9 And Zare the Ethiopian went out against them, with a force of a million, and three hundred chariots; and came to Maresa.
A hele mai io lakou la o Zera no Aitiopa mai me ka poe koa, hookahi tausani tausani, a me na kaa kaua ekolu haneri, a hiki mai lakou i Maresa.
10 And Asa went out to meet him, and set the battle in array in the valley north of Maresa.
A hele ku e o Asa ia ia, a hoonohonoho i ke kaua ma ke awawa o Zepata ma Maresa.
11 And Asa cried to the Lord his God, and said, O Lord, it is not impossible with you to save by many or by few: strengthen us, O Lord our God; for we trust in you, and in your name have we come against this great multitude. O Lord our God, let not man prevail against you.
A kahea aku la o Asa ia Iehova, i kona Akua, i aku la, E Iehova, ua like wale no ia oe ke kokua mamuli o ka poe lehulehu, a mamuli hoi o ka poe ikaika ole: e kokua mai ia makou, e Iehova ko makou Akua; no ka mea, ke hilinai aku nei makou ia oe, a ma kou inoa makou e hele ku e aku ai i keia poe lehulehu. E Iehova, o oe no ko makou Akua; mai noho oe a lanakila ke kanaka maluna ou.
12 And the Lord struck the Ethiopians before Juda; and the Ethiopians fled.
Alaila, luku mai la o Iehova i ko Aitiopa imua o Asa, a imua o ka Iuda; a auhee aku la ko Aitiopa.
13 And Asa and his people pursued them to Gedor; and the Ethiopians fell, so that they could not recover themselves; for they were crushed before the Lord, and before his host; and they took many spoils.
Alualu aku la o Asa a me na kanaka me ia a hiki i Gerara; haule ko Aitiopa, aole i hiki ia lakou ke ola; no ka mea, ua lukuia lakou imua o Iehova, a imua o kona poe koa, a ua lawe lakou i ka waiwai pio he nui loa.
14 And they destroyed their towns roundabout Gedor; for a terror of the Lord was upon them: and they spoiled all their cities, for they had much spoil.
A luku lakou i na kulanakauhale a pau a puni o Gerara, no ka mea, maluna o lakou ka makau ia Iehova; a hoopio lakou i na kulanakauhale a pau; a he nui loa ka waiwai pio iloko olaila.
15 Also they destroyed the tents of cattle, and the Alimazons, and took many sheep and camels, and returned to Jerusalem.
A luku lakou i na halelewa o na holoholona, a lawe aku la lakou i na hipa a me na kamelo he nui loa, a hoi lakou i Ierusalema.
