< 2 Kings 22 >
1 Josiah was eight years old when he had begun to reign. He reigned for thirty-one years in Jerusalem. The name of his mother was Jedidah, the daughter of Adaiah, from Bozkath.
E WALU na makahiki o Iosia, i kona lilo ana i alii, a he kanakolukumamakahi na makahiki ana i noho alii ai ma Ierusalema. A o Iedida ka inoa o kona makuwahine, he kaikamahine a Adaia no Bosekata.
2 And he did what was pleasing before the Lord, and he walked in all the ways of his father David. He did not turn aside to the right, or to the left.
A hana pono aku la ia imua o Iehova, a hele no ia ma na aoao o Davida kona kupuna, aole ia i huli ae ma ka akau, aole ma ka hema.
3 Then, in the eighteenth year of king Josiah, the king sent Shaphan, the son of Azaliah, the son of Meshullam, the scribe of the temple of the Lord, saying to him:
A i ka makahiki umikumamawalu o Iosia ke alii, hoouna aku la ke alii ia Sapana ke keiki a Azalia, ke keiki a Mesulama, ke kakauolelo, i ka hale o Iehova, i aku la,
4 “Go to Hilkiah, the high priest, so that the money may be put together which has been brought into the temple of the Lord, which the doorkeepers of the temple have collected from the people.
E pii aku oe ia Hilekia ke kahuna nui, a nana e helu ke kala i laweia mai iloko o ka hale o Iehova, ka mea a ka poe kiai i ka paepae puka i hoiliili ae na na kanaka mai.
5 And let it be given, by those in charge of the house of the Lord, to the workers. And let them distribute it to those who are working in the temple of the Lord in order to repair the surfaces of the temple,
A e haawi aku lakou ia mea i ka lima o ka poe hana i ka hana, i ka poe luna hoi o ka hale o Iehova, a e haawi aku hoi lakou i ka poe hana i ka hana maloko o ka hale o Iehova, no ka hana hou i kahi naha o ka hale.
6 specifically, to carpenters and masons, and to those who mend gaps, and so that wood may be purchased, and stones from the quarries, in order to repair the temple of the Lord.
A i na kamana, a i ka poe kukulu, a i ka poe hahao pohaku, a me ke kuai laau a me na pohaku i kalaiia no ka hana hou i ka hale.
7 Yet truly, let no account be given by them of the money that they receive. Instead, let them have it within their power and trust.”
Aka, aole i helu pu ia me lakou ke kala i haawiia i ko lakou lima, no ka mea, ma ka pono ka lakou hana ana.
8 Then Hilkiah, the high priest, said to Shaphan, the scribe, “I have found the book of the law in the house of the Lord.” And Hilkiah gave the volume to Shaphan, and he read it.
I aku la o Hilekia ke kahuna nui ia Sapana ke kakauolelo, Ua loaa ia'u ka buke o ke kanawai ma ka hale o Iehova. A haawi aku la o Hilekia i ka buke ia Sapana, a heluhelu no kela ia mea.
9 Also, Shaphan, the scribe, went to the king, and reported to him what he had instructed. And he said: “Your servants have brought together the money which was found in the house of the Lord. And they have given it so that it would be distributed to the workers by the overseers of the works of the temple of the Lord.”
A hele aku la o Sapana ke kakauolelo i ke alii, a hai aku i ka olelo i ke alii, i aku la, Ua ninini kau mau kauwa i ke kala i loaa iloko o ka hale, a ua haawi aku ia mea i ka poe hana i ka hana, i na luna o ka hale o Iehova.
10 Also, Shaphan, the scribe, explained to the king, saying, “Hilkiah, the priest, gave the book to me.” And when Shaphan had read it before the king,
A hai aku la o Sapana, ke kakauolelo i ke alii, i aku la, O Hilekia ke kahuna, ua haawi mai ia'u i buke. A heluhelu iho la o Sapana ia mea imua o ke alii.
11 and the king had heard the words of the book of the law of the Lord, he tore his garments.
A lohe ke alii i ka olelo a ka buke o ke kanawai, haehae iho la ia i kona aahu.
12 And he instructed Hilkiah, the priest, and Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, and Achbor, the son of Micaiah, and Shaphan, the scribe, and Asaiah, the servant of the king, saying:
A kauoha aku la ke alii ia Hilekia ke kahuna, a ia Ahikama, ke keiki a Sapana, a ia Akebora ke keiki a Mikaia, a ia Sapana ke kakauolelo, a ia Asakia, ke kauwa a ke alii, i aku la,
13 “Go and consult the Lord concerning me, and the people, and all of Judah, about the words of this volume which has been found. For the great wrath of the Lord has been kindled against us because our fathers did not listen to the words of this book, so that they would do all that has been written for us.”
E hele oukou, a e ninau aku ia Iehova no'u, a no na kanaka, a no ka Iuda a pau, i na olelo o keia buke i loaa; no ka mea, ua nui ka inaina o Iehova i hoaia no kakou, i ka hoolohe ole o ko kakou poe makua i na olelo o keia buke, e hana like me na mea a pau i kakauia no kakou.
14 Therefore, Hilkiah, the priest, and Ahikam, and Achbor, and Shaphan, and Asaiah, went to Huldah, the prophetess, the wife of Shallum, the son of Tikvah, the son of Harhas, the keeper of the vestments, who was living in Jerusalem, in the second part. And they spoke with her.
A hele aku la o Hilekia ke kahuna, a me Ahikama, a me Akebora, a me Sapana, a me Asakia, io Huleda la ke kaula wahine, ka wahine a Saluma, ke keiki a Tikeva, ke keiki a Harehasa, nana i malama i na aahu; (a e noho ana ua wahine la ma Ierusalema, ma kekahi hapa, ) a kamailio pu lakou me ia.
15 And she responded to them: “Thus says the Lord, the God of Israel: Tell the man who sent you to me:
I mai la kela ia lakou, Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela peneia, E olelo aku oukou i ke kanaka, nana oukou i hoouna mai io'u nei,
16 Thus says the Lord: Behold, I will lead evils over this place, and over its inhabitants, all the words of the law that the king of Judah has read.
Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova peneia, Aia hoi, e lawe mai ana au i ka ino maluna o keia wahi, a maluna o kona poe kanaka, i na mea a pau o ka buke a ke alii o ka Iuda i heluhelu ai:
17 For they have abandoned me, and they have sacrificed to foreign gods, provoking me by all the works of their hands. And so my indignation will be kindled against this place. And it will not be extinguished.
No ka mea, ua haalele lakou ia'u, a na kuni i ka mea ala i na akua e, i hoonaukiuki ai lakou ia'u, ma na hana a pau a ko lakou lima; nolaila, e hoaia ko'u inaina i keia wahi, aole ia e pio.
18 But to the king of Judah, who sent you so that you would consult the Lord, so shall you say: Thus says the Lord, the God of Israel: In so far as you have heard the words of the volume,
Aka, i ke alii o ka Iuda, nana oukou i hoouna mai nei e ninau ia Iehova, peneia oukou e olelo aku ai ia ia, Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela peneia, no na olelo au i lohe ai;
19 and your heart was terrified, and you humbled yourself before the Lord, listening to the words against this place and its inhabitants, specifically, that they would become an astonishment and a curse, and because you have torn your garments, and have wept before me: I also have heard you, says the Lord.
No ka mea, ua akahai kou naau, a ua hoohaahaa oe ia oe iho imua o Iehova i ka wa i lohe ai oe i ka mea a'u i olelo ai no keia wahi, a me kona poe kanaka, i lilo ai lakou i mea kahahaia, a i mea hoinoia, a ua haehae oe i kou aahu, a ua auwe oe imua o'u; owau hoi ka i hoolohe, wahi a Iehova.
20 For this reason, I will gather you to your fathers, and you will be gathered to your sepulcher in peace, so that your eyes may not see all the evils that I will bring over this place.”
Nolaila hoi e hui pu aku au ia oe me kou poe kupuna, a ma kou halelua oe e huiia'i me ka malu; aole hoi e ike kou mau maka i ka ino a pau a'u e lawe mai ai maluna o keia wahi. A hai aku la lakou i ke alii i ka olelo.
