< 2 Chronicles 29 >
1 And so Hezekiah began to reign when he was twenty-five years old. And he reigned for twenty-nine years in Jerusalem. The name of his mother was Abijah, the daughter of Zechariah.
HOOMAKA iho la o Hezekia e alii i kona makahiki he iwakaluakumamalima, a he iwakaluakumamaiwa makahiki kona noho alii ana ma Ierusalema; a o ka inoa o kona makuwahine, o Abia, ke kaikamahine a Zekaria.
2 And he did what was pleasing in the sight of the Lord, in accord with all that his father David had done.
Hana pololei iho la oia imua i ke alo o Iehova, e like me na mea a pau a Davida kona kupuna i hana'i.
3 In the first year and month of his reign, he opened the double doors of the house of the Lord, and he repaired them.
I ka makahiki mua o kona noho alii ana, a i ka malama mua no hoi, wehe ae la ia i na puka o ka hale o Iehova, a hana hou ia mau mea.
4 And he brought together the priests and Levites. And he gathered them in the wide eastern street.
Kii aku ia i na kahuna a me na Levi, a houluulu ia lakou ma ke ala ma ka hikina;
5 And he said to them: “Listen to me, O Levites, and be sanctified. Cleanse the house of the Lord, the God of your fathers, and take away every uncleanness from the sanctuary.
Olelo aku la oia ia lakou, E hoolohe mai oukou ia'u, e na Levi; ano, e huikala oukou ia oukou iho, a e hoomaemae oukou i ka hale o Iehova ke Akua o ko oukou poe kupuna, a e lawe aku i na mea haumia mai kahi hoano aku.
6 Our fathers sinned and did evil in the sight of the Lord our God, abandoning him. They turned their faces away from the tabernacle of the Lord, and they presented their backs.
No ka mea, ua lawehala ko kakou poe kupuna, ua hana ino lakou imua i ke alo o Iehova, ko kakou Akua, ua haalele lakou ia ia, ua huli ko lakou maka mai ka halelewa o Iehova aku, a ua haawi mai lakou i ke kua.
7 They closed up the doors which were in the portico, and they extinguished the lamps. And they did not burn incense, and they did not offer holocausts, in the sanctuary of the God of Israel.
A ua pani lakou i na puka o ka lanai, ua kinai i na kukui, aole lakou i kuni i ka mea ala, aole hoi i mohai aku lakou i kekahi mohai ma kahi hoano o ke Akua o ka Iseraela.
8 And so the fury of the Lord was stirred up against Judah and Jerusalem, and he handed them over to turmoil, and to destruction, and to hissing, just as you discern with your own eyes.
No ia mea, ua kauia mai ka huhu o Iehova maluna o ka Iuda, a me ko Ierusalema, a ua haawi oia ia lakou i ka hana ino ia mai, a me ka heneheneia mai, a me ka hoowahawahaia mai, e like me ka mea a ko oukou mau maka i ike iho nei.
9 Lo, our fathers have fallen by the sword. Our sons, and our daughters and wives have been led away as captives because of this wickedness.
Aia hoi, ua haule ko kakou poe kupuna i ka pahikaua, a o ka kakou poe keiki kane, a me na kaikamahine a kakou, a me na wahine a kakou, he poe pio lakou no keia hewa.
10 Now therefore, it is pleasing to me that we should enter into a covenant with the Lord, the God of Israel. And he will turn away the fury of his indignation from us.
Ano, eia no iloko o ko'u naau e hana i berita me Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela, i huli ae kona huhu wela mai o kakou aku.
11 My sons, do not choose to be negligent. The Lord has chosen you so that you would stand before him, and minister to him, and worship him, and burn incense to him.”
Ano, e ka'u poe keiki, mai lalau oukou; no ka mea, ua wae mai o Iehova ia oukou e ku imua ona e hookauwa nana, a e lawelawe i kana mau oihana, a e kuni i ka mea ala.
12 Therefore, the Levites rose up, Mahath, the son of Amasai, and Joel, the son of Azariah, from the sons of Kohath; then, from the sons of Merari, Kish, the son of Abdi, and Azariah, the son of Jehallelel; and from the sons of Gershon, Joah, the son of Zimmah, and Eden, the son of Joah;
Alaila, ku ae la iluna na Levi, o Mahata, ke keiki a Amasai, a me Ioela, ke keiki a Azaria, no ka poe mamo a Kohata; a no ka poe mamo a Merari, o Kisa ke keiki a Abedi, a me Azaria ke keiki a Iehalelela; a o ka poe mamo a Geresoma, o Ioa ke keiki a Zima, a o Edena ke keiki a Ioa;
13 and truly, from the sons of Elizaphan, Shimri and Jeuel; also, from the sons of Asaph, Zechariah and Mattaniah;
A no ka poe mamo a Elizapana, o Simeri, a me Ieila; a no ka poe mamo a Asapa, o Zekaria, a me Matania;
14 indeed also, from the sons of Heman, Jehuel and Shimei; then too, from the sons of Jeduthun, Shemaiah and Uzziel.
A no ka poe mamo a Hemana, o Iehiela, a me Simei; a no ka poe mamo a Iedutuna, o Semaia a me Uziela.
15 And they gathered together their brothers. And they were sanctified. And they entered in accord with the command of the king and the order of the Lord, so that they might expiate the house of God.
A houluulu lakou i ko lakou poe hoahanau, a huikala ia lakou iho, a hele mai e like me ke kauoha a ke alii, a me ka olelo a Iehova, e hoomaemae i ka hale o Iehova.
16 And the priests, entering the temple of the Lord so that they might sanctify it, took every uncleanness, which they had found inside, out to the vestibule of the house of the Lord; and the Levites took it away and transported it outside, to the torrent Kidron.
A komo na kahuna iloko lilo o ka hale o Iehova e hoomaemae, a lawe lakou iwaho i na mea maemae ole a pau i loaa ia lakou ma ka luakini o Iehova, a waiho ma ke kahua o ka hale o Iehova. A lawe ka poe mamo a Levi ia mau mea, a hali aku i ke kahawai o Kiderona.
17 Now they began to cleanse on the first day of the first month. And on the eighth day of the same month, they entered the portico of the temple of the Lord. And then they expiated the temple over eight days. And on the sixteenth day of the same month, they finished what they had begun.
Hoomaka lakou e hoomaemae i ka la mua o ka malama mua, a i ka la ewalu o ua malama la ua hiki lakou i ka lanai o Iehova; pela i hoomaemae ai lakou i ka hale o Iehova i na la ewalu, a i ka la umikumamaono o ka malama mua, hoopau ae la lakou.
18 Also, they entered to king Hezekiah, and they said to him: “We have sanctified the entire house of the Lord, and the altar of holocaust, and its vessels, indeed also the table of the presence, with all its vessels,
A komo lakou iloko io Hezekia la, ke alii, a olelo aku la ia ia, Ua hoomaemae makou i ka hale o Iehova a pau, a me ke kuahu mohai, a me ko laila mau kiaha a pau, a me ka papa berena hoike, a me ko laila mau kiaha a pau.
19 and all the equipment of the temple, which king Ahaz, during his reign, had polluted after his transgression. And behold, these have all been set forth before the altar of the Lord.”
A me na kiaha a pau a ke alii a Ahaza i kiola aku ai, i kona lawehala ana i kona wa i noho alii ai, hoomakaukau makou, a hoomaemae no hoi, aia hoi ia mau mea imua o ke kuahu o Iehova.
20 And rising up at first light, king Hezekiah joined as one all the leaders of the city, and they ascended to the house of the Lord.
A kakahiaka nui ala ae la o Hezekia, ke alii, a houluulu i na alii o ke kulanakauhale, a pii aku i ka hale o Iehova.
21 And together they offered seven bulls and seven rams, seven lambs and seven he-goats, for sin, for the kingdom, for the Sanctuary, for Judah. And he spoke to the priests, the sons of Aaron, so that they would offer these upon the altar of the Lord.
A lawe mai lakou i ehiku bipi kane, a me na hipa keiki ehiku, a me na kao kane ehiku, i mohaihala no ke aupuni, a no ke keenakapu, a no ka Iuda; a kauoha aku la ia i na mamo a Aarona, i na kahuna, e mohai aku ia mau mea maluna o ke kuahu o Iehova.
22 And so they slaughtered the bulls. And the priests took up the blood, and they poured it upon the altar. Then they also slaughtered the rams, and they poured their blood upon the altar. And they immolated the lambs, and they poured the blood upon the altar.
A pepehi iho la lakou i na bipi, a lawe na kahuna i ke koko, a kapipi iho la maluna o ke kuahu; a pepehi no hoi lakou i na hipa kane, a kapipi iho la i ke koko maluna o ke kuahu; a pepehi lakou i na hipa keiki no hoi, a kapipi iho la i ke koko maluna o ke kuahu.
23 They brought the he-goats for sin before the king and the entire multitude. And they laid their hands upon them.
A kai mai la lakou i na kao kane i mohaihala imua o ke alii, a me ka ahakanaka; a kau lakou i ko lakou mau lima maluna o ia mau mea:
24 And the priests immolated them, and they sprinkled their blood before the altar, for the expiation of all Israel. For certainly the king had instructed that the holocaust and the sin offering should be made on behalf of all Israel.
A pepehi na kahuna ia mau mea, a mohai aku i ko lakou koko maluna o ke kuahu, i mea e uhi ai i ka hala no ka Iseraela a pau; no ka mea, no ka Iseraela a pau i kauoha ai ke alii i ka mohaikuni a me ka mohaihala.
25 Also, he situated the Levites in the house of the Lord, with cymbals, and psalteries, and harps, according to the disposition of king David, and of the seer Gad, and of the prophet Nathan. For indeed, this was the precept of the Lord, by the hand of his prophets.
A hoonoho iho la oia i na Levi iloko o ka hale o Iehova me na kimebala, a me na pesaletera, a me na mea kani, e like me ke kauoha a Davida, a me Gada ke kumu a ke alii, a me Natana ke kaula: no ka mea, pela ke kauoha a Iehova ma na kaula.
26 And the Levites stood, holding the musical instruments of David, and the priests held the trumpets.
A ku ae la iluna na Levi me na mea kani a Davida, a o na kahuna kekahi me na pu.
27 And Hezekiah ordered that they should offer holocausts upon the altar. And when the holocausts were being offered, they began to sing praises to the Lord, and to sound the trumpets, and to play various musical instruments, which David, the king of Israel, had prepared.
Alaila, kauoha o Hezekia e mohai aku i ka mohai maluna o ke kuahu; a i ka wa i hoomaka ai lakou e mohai aku, hoomaka no hoi ka himeni o Iehova me na pu a me na mea kani, a Davida ke alii o ka Iseraela.
28 Then the entire crowd was adoring, and the singers and those who were holding the trumpeters were exercising their office, until the holocaust was completed.
A o ka ahakanaka a pau loa, kulou iho la lakou, a himeni aku ka poe himeni, puhi no hoi ka poe puhi pu; a hana pela a pau ka mohai ana.
29 And when the oblation was finished, the king, and all who were with him, bowed down and adored.
A pau ae la ka mohai ana, kulou iho la ke alii, a me ka poe malaila pu me ia a pau, a hoomana aku la.
30 And Hezekiah and the rulers instructed the Levites to praise the Lord with the words of David, and of Asaph, the seer. And they praised him with great joy, and kneeling down, they adored.
Alaila, kauoha ae la o Hezekia ke alii, a me na kaukaualii i na Levi, e hoomaikai aku ia Iehova ma na olelo a Davida, a me Asapa ke kaula. A hoomaikai aku lakou me ka olioli, kulou iho la, a hoomana aku la.
31 And now Hezekiah also added: “You have filled your hands for the Lord. Draw near, and offer victims and praises in the house of the Lord.” Therefore, the entire multitude offered victims and praises and holocausts, with devout intention.
Olelo mai la o Hezekia, i mai la, Ano, ua hoolaa oukou ia oukou iho no Iehova, e hele mai, a e lawe mai i na mohai, a me na mohai aloha i ka hale o Iehova. A lawe mai ka ahakanaka i na alana, a me na mohai aloha; a o ka poe a pau i makemake ka naau, lawe mai lakou i na mohaikuni.
32 Now the number of the holocausts that the multitude offered was seventy bulls, one hundred rams, two hundred lambs.
O na mohaikuni ma ka helu ana, a ka ahakanaka i lawe mai ai, he kanahiku bipi, hookahi haneri hipa kane, a elua haneri hipa keiki: no ka mohaikuni ia Iehova keia mau mea a pau loa.
33 And they sanctified to the Lord six hundred oxen and three thousand sheep.
A o na mea i hoolaaia, eono haneri bipi, a ekolu tausani hipa.
34 Truly, the priests were few; neither were they sufficient to remove the pelts from the holocausts. Therefore, the Levites, their brothers, also assisted them, until the work was completed, and the priests, who were of higher rank, were sanctified. For indeed, the Levites are sanctified with an easier ritual than the priests.
Aka, aole i nui ka poe kahuna, aole hiki ia lakou wale no ke pepehi i na mohaikuni a pau: no ia mea, kokua mai ko lakou poe hoahanau, o na Levi, a hiki i ka pau ana o ka hana, a i ka wa hoi i huikala mai ai ka poe kahuna ia lakou iho; no ka mea, ua oi aku ka pololei o ka naau o na Levi e huikala ia lakou iho mamua o na kahuna.
35 Thus, there were very numerous holocausts, with the fat of the peace offerings and the libations of the holocausts. And the service of the house of the Lord was completed.
Ua nui loa no hoi na mohaikuni me ka momona o na mohai aloha, a me na mohai inu, no kela mohaikuni, keia mohaikuni. Pela i hooponoponoia'i na oihana o ka hale o Iehova.
36 And Hezekiah and all the people were joyful because the ministry of the Lord was accomplished. For certainly, it had pleased them to do this suddenly.
A hauoli o Hezekia a me na kanaka a pau i ko ke Akua hoomakaukau ana i na kanaka; no ka mea, hiki wawe no ka hana.
