< 2 Kings 10 >

1 Now Ahab had seventy sons in Samaria. And so Jehu wrote letters, and he sent to Samaria, to the nobles of the city, and to those greater by birth, and to those who had raised Ahab’s sons, saying:
A HE kanahiku na keiki a Ahaba ma Samaria. A kakau iho la o Iehu i na palapala, hoouna aku i Samaria, na na luna o Iezereela, na na luna kahiko, a na na kahu o na keiki a Ahaba, i ka i ana'e,
2 “Immediately when you receive these letters, you who have your lord’s sons, and chariots, and horses, and reinforced cities, and weapons,
Ano, a hiki aku keia palapala io oukou la, no ka noho ana o na keiki a ko oukou haku me oukou, a ia oukou na halekaa a me na lio, a me ke kulanakauhale paa i ka papohaku, a me na mea kaua;
3 choose him who is better and who pleases you from among the sons of your lord, and set him on the throne of his father, and fight for the house of your lord.”
E imi aku oukou i ka mea maikai a me ka mea pono o na keiki a ko oukou haku, a e hoonoho ia ia maluna o ka nohoalii o kona makuakane, a e kaua mai no ko ka hale o ko oukou haku.
4 But they were vehemently afraid, and they said: “Behold, two kings were not able to stand before him. So how will we be able to withstand him?”
A makau loa iho la lakou, i ae la, Aia hoi, aole i ku na'lii elua imua ona; pehea la kakou e ku ai?
5 Therefore, those who were in charge of the house, and the prefects of the city, and those greater by birth, and those who raised the sons, sent to Jehu, saying: “We are your servants. Whatever you will order, we will do. But we will not appoint a king for ourselves. Do whatever pleases you.”
A o ka luna o ko ka hale, a me ka luna o ke kulanakauhale, o na lunakahiko, a me na haku, hoouna aku la lakou io Iehu la, i aku la, He poe kauwa makou nau, a e hana no makou i na mea a pau au e olelo mai ai; aole e hoaliiia kekahi; e hana oe i ka mea pono i kou manao.
6 Then he again wrote letters to them a second time, saying: “If you are mine, and if you obey me, take the heads of the sons of your lord, and come to me at Jezreel at this same hour tomorrow.” Now the sons of the king, being seventy men, were being raised with the nobles of the city.
Alaila palapala hou aku la oia ia lakou, i aku la, ina no'u oukou, a e hoolohe hoi i ko'u leo, alaila, e lawe oukou i na poo o na kanaka, o na keiki a ko oukou haku, a e hele mai i o'u nei i Iezereela ma keia manawa i ka la apopo. (A o na keiki a ke alii, he kanahiku lakou e noho ana me na kanaka koikoi o ke kulanakauhale, nana lakou i hanai.)
7 And when the letters had arrived to them, they took the sons of the king, and they killed the seventy men. And they placed their heads in baskets, and they sent these to him at Jezreel.
A hiki aku ka palapala io lakou la, lawe lakou i na keiki a ke alii, a pepehi iho la i na mea he kanahiku, a waiho lakou i na poo maloko o na hinai, a hoouna aku io na la ma Iezereela.
8 Then a messenger arrived and reported to him, saying, “They have brought the heads of the king’s sons.” And he responded, “Place them in two piles, beside the entrance of the gate, until morning.”
A hele mai kekahi elele a hai aku ia ia, i aku la, Ua lawe mai lakou i na poo o na keiki a ke alii. I mai la ia, E waiho ia lakou ma na puu elua, ma kahi i komo ai i ka ipuka, a kakahiaka.
9 And when it had become light, he went out. And standing there, he said to all the people: “You are just. If I have conspired against my lord, and if I have killed him, who has struck down all of these?
A i kakahiaka, hele aku ia, a ku, i aku la i na kanaka a pau, Ua pono oukou: aia hoi, ua kipi aku au i kuu haku, a pepehi aku ia ia: aka, owai la ka i pepehi i keia mau mea a pau?
10 Now therefore, see that none of the words of the Lord has fallen to the ground, which the Lord spoke over the house of Ahab, and that the Lord has done what he spoke by the hand of his servant Elijah.”
E ike ana oukou, aole e haule i ka honua kekahi o ka olelo a Iehova i olelo mai ai no ko ka hale o Ahaba: no ka mea, ua hana mai o Iehova i ka mea ana i olelo mai ai ma o Elia la kana kauwa.
11 And so, Jehu struck down all who had remained from the house of Ahab in Jezreel, and all his nobles and friends and priests, until no remnant of them was left behind.
A pepehi aku la o Iehu i na mea a pau i koe no ko ka hale o Ahaba ma Iezereela, a me kona poe koikoi a pau, a me kona poe hoalauna, a me kana poe kahuna, aole ia i hookoe i kekahi nona.
12 And he rose up and went to Samaria. And when he had arrived at the shepherds’ cabin along the way,
A ku ae la ia, a hele aku la a hiki i Samaria. Aia no ia ma ka hale hoopaa o na kahuhipa ma ke aia.
13 he found the brothers of Ahaziah, the king of Judah, and he said to them, “Who are you?” And they responded, “We are the brothers of Ahaziah, and we are going down to greet the sons of the king, and the sons of the queen.”
A loaa ia Iehu na hoahanau o Ahazia ke alii o ka Iuda, a ninau aku la, Owai oukou? I mai la lakou, He mau hoahanau makou no Ahazia, a e iho ana makou e ike i na keiki a ke alii a me na keiki a ke aliiwahine.
14 And he said, “Take them alive.” And when they had taken them alive, they cut their throats at the cistern beside the cabin, forty-two men. And he did not leave any of them behind.
I aku la, E hoopaa ola aku ia lakou: a hoopaa ola aku la na kanaka ia lakou, a luku aku la ia lakou ma ka luawai o ka hale hoopaa, he kanaha kumamalua na kanaka; aole ia i hookoe i kekahi o lakou.
15 And when he had gone away from there, he found Jehonadab, the son of Rechab, coming to meet him, and he blessed him. And he said to him, “Is your heart upright, just as my heart is with your heart?” And Jehonadab said, “It is.” Then he said, “If it is, then give me your hand.” He gave his hand to him. And so he lifted him up to himself in the chariot.
A hele ia mailaila aku a loaa ia ia o Iehonadaba ke keiki a Rekaba e halawai me ia: a hoomaikai aku o Iehu ia ia, i aku la, Ua pono anei kou naau, e like me ko'u naau me kou naau? I mai la o Iehonadaba, Oia no. Ina pela, e haawi mai oe i kou lima. A haawi aku ia i kona lima, a hoee aku la ia ia ma ka halekaa me ia.
16 And he said to him, “Come with me, and see my zeal for the Lord.” And he gave him a place in his chariot.
I aku la ia, E hele pu oe me au, a ike oe i kuu ikaika no Iehova. A hooholo lakou ia ia ma kona halekaa.
17 And he led him into Samaria. And he struck down all who were left behind of Ahab in Samaria, even to the last one, in accord with the word of the Lord, which he spoke through Elijah.
A hiki aku la ia i Samaria, pepehi aku la ia i na mea a pau i koe no Ahaba ma Samaria, a pau ia i ka lukuia, e like me ka olelo a Iehova ana i olelo mai ai ma o Elia la.
18 Then Jehu gathered together the entire people. And he said to them: “Ahab worshipped Baal a little, but I will worship him even more.
Houluulu ae la o Iehu i na kanaka a pau, a i aku la ia lakou, Malama uuku aku o Ahaba ia Baala, e malama nui auanei o Iehu ia ia.
19 Now therefore, summon to me all the prophets of Baal, and all his servants, and all his priests. Let no one be permitted not to come, for great is the sacrifice from me to Baal. Whoever will fail to come, he shall not live.” Now Jehu was doing this treacherously, so that he might destroy the worshippers of Baal.
Ano hoi, e hoakoakoa mai oukou i na kaula a pau a Baala, a me kana poe kauwa a pau, a me kana poe kahuna a pau io'u nei, mai hookoeia kekahi; no ka mea, he mohai nui ka'u no Baala; o kela mea keia mea e koe ana, aole ia e ola. Aka, hana no o Iehu me ka hoopunipuni, i luku aku ai ia i ka poe malama ia Baala.
20 And he said: “Sanctify a day of solemnity for Baal.” And he summoned
I aku la o Iehu, E hoolaa aku i ka houluulu ana no Baala. A hoolaa aku la lakou.
21 and sent into all the borders of Israel. And all the servants of Baal came. There was left behind not even one who did not arrive. And they entered into the temple of Baal. And the house of Baal was filled, all the way from end to end.
A hoouna aku la o Iehu i ka Iseraela a puni; a hele mai na kauwa a pau a Baala, aole i koe aku kekahi i hele ole mai. A komo lakou i ka hale o Baala, a piha loa ka hale o Baala mai kela aoao a i keia aoao.
22 And he said to those who were over the vestments, “Bring forth vestments for all the servants of Baal.” And they brought forth vestments for them.
I aku la ia i ka mea nana i malama ke keena lole, E lawe mai iwaho i ka lole no na kauwa a Baala. A lawe mai no ia i ka lole no lakou.
23 And Jehu, upon entering the temple of Baal with Jehonadab, the son of Rechab, said to the worshippers of Baal, “Inquire and see that there is no one with you from the servants of the Lord, but only from the servants of Baal.”
Komo aku o Iehu, a me Iehonadaba, ke keiki a Rekaba, iloko o ka hale o Baala, a i aku la i na kauwa a Baala, E nana oukou a ike, i ole maanei me oukou kekahi o na kauwa a Iehova, o na kauwa a Baala wale no.
24 Then they entered, so that they might offer victims and holocausts. But Jehu had prepared for himself eighty men outside. And he had said to them, “If anyone escapes from among these men, whom I have led into your hands, your life will take the place of his life.”
A komo aku la lakou e kaumaha aku i ka mohai, a me na mohaikuni, alaila hoonoho iho la o Iehu i na kanaka, he kanawalu mawaho, i aku la, O ka mea nana e hoopakele kekahi o na kanaka a'u i lawe mai nei iloko o ko oukou lima, o lilo no kona ola no ko ia la ola.
25 Then it happened that, when the holocaust had been completed, Jehu ordered his soldiers and officers, saying: “Enter and strike them down. Let no one escape.” And the soldiers and officers struck them down with the edge of the sword, and they cast them out. And they went into the city of the temple of Baal,
A pau kana kaumaha ana'ku i ka mohaikuni, i aku la o Iehu i ka poe kiai, a i na luna, E komo iloko, e luku ia lakou; mai puka iwaho kekahi. A luku aku la ua poe la ia lakou me ka maka o ka pahikaua; a o ka poe kiai a me na luna hoolei aku la ia lakou, a hele aku la i ke kulanakauhale o Baala.
26 and they took away the statue from the shrine of Baal, and they burned it up
A lawe mai lakou i na kii mawaho o ka hale o Baala, a puhi aku la i ke ahi.
27 and crushed it. They also tore down the temple of Baal, and they made it into a latrine, even to this day.
A wawahi lakou i ke kii o Baala, a wawahi hoi i ka hale o Baala, a hoolilo lakou ia mea i hale kiona a hiki i keia la.
28 And thus did Jehu wipe away Baal from Israel.
A luku aku la o Iehu ia Baala mai loko aku o ka Iseraela.
29 Yet truly, he did not turn away from the sins of Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, who caused Israel to sin. Neither did he forsake the golden calves, which were in Bethel and Dan.
Aka hoi, o na hewa o Ieroboama ke keiki a Nebata, nana i hoolilo ka Iseraela i ka hewa, aole i haalele o Iehu i ka hahai ana mamuli o lakou, o na keikibipi gula ma Betela a ma Dana.
30 Then the Lord said to Jehu: “Since you have diligently carried out what was right and pleasing in my eyes, and since you have accomplished, against the house of Ahab, all that was in my heart, your sons shall sit upon the throne of Israel, even to the fourth generation.”
A olelo mai o Iehova ia Iehu, no ka mea, ua maikai oe i ka hana ana i ka pono ia'u, a ua hana aku oe i ko ka hale o Ahaba, e like me ka mea a pau ma ko'u naau, e noho auanei kau poe keiki maluna o ka nohoalii o ka Iseraela a hiki i ke kualua.
31 But Jehu did not take care, so that he might walk in the law of the Lord, the God of Israel, with all his heart. For he did not withdraw from the sins of Jeroboam, who had caused Israel to sin.
Aka, aole o Iehu i malama i ka hele ana ma ke kanawai o Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela me kona naau a pau: no ka mea, aole ia i haalele i na hewa o Ieroboama, nana i hoolilo ka Iseraela i ka hewa.
32 In those days, the Lord began to be weary of Israel. And Hazael struck them throughout all the parts of Israel,
I kela manawa i hoomaka ai o Iehova e paipai i ka Iseraela: a luku mai la o Hazaela ia lakou ma na mokuna a pau o ka Iseraela;
33 from the Jordan opposite the eastern region, in all the land of Gilead, and Gad, and Reuben, and Manasseh, from Aroer, which is above the torrent Arnon, in both Gilead and Bashan.
Mai Ioredane, mai ka hikina o ka la, i ka aina a pau o Gileada, i ka Gada, a me ka Reubena, a me ka Manase, mai Aroera ma ke kahawai o Arenona, a hiki i Gileada a me Basana.
34 But the rest of the words of Jehu, and all that he did, and his strength, have these not been written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?
A o na mea i koe a Iehu, a o na mea a pau ana i hana'i, a me kona ikaika a pau, aole anei i kakauia lakou iloko o ka buke oihanaalii a na'lii o ka Iseraela?
35 And Jehu slept with his fathers, and they buried him in Samaria. And Jehoahaz, his son, reigned in his place.
A hiamoe iho la o Iehu me kona poe makua; a kanu lakou ia ia ma Samaria. A noho alii o Iehoahaza kana keiki ma kona wahi.
36 Now the days during which Jehu reigned over Israel, in Samaria, were twenty-eight years.
A o ka manawa a Iehu i alii ai maluna o ka Iseraela ma Samaria, he iwakalua na makahiki ia a me kumamawalu.
