2 Kings 17
1 In the twelft yeere of Ahaz King of Iudah began Hoshea the sonne of Elah to reigne in Samaria ouer Israel, and reigned nine yeeres.
ʻI hono hongofulu ma ua ʻoe taʻu ʻo ʻAhasi ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta naʻe kamata pule ki ʻIsileli ʻi Samēlia ʻa Hosea ko e foha ʻo Ela, ʻi he taʻu ʻe hiva.
2 And he did euill in the sight of the Lord, but not as the Kinges of Israel, that were before him.
Pea naʻa ne fai kovi ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, ka naʻe ʻikai ke hangē ia ko e ngaahi tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli ʻaia naʻe ʻi muʻa ʻiate ia.
3 And Shalmaneser king of Asshur came vp against him, and Hoshea became his seruant, and gaue him presents.
Naʻe haʻu kiate ia ʻa Salimanesa ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻAsilia ko hono tauʻi; pea naʻe fakatokalalo kiate ia ʻa Hosea, pea naʻa ne foaki ʻae ngaahi meʻaʻofa kiate ia.
4 And the King of Asshur founde treason in Hoshea: for he had sent messengers to So King of Egypt, and brought no present vnto the King of Asshur, as he had done yeerely: therfore the king of Asshur shut him vp, and put him in prison.
Pea naʻe ʻilo ʻe he tuʻi ʻo ʻAsilia ʻae teu lapa ʻe Hosea: he kuo fekau atu ʻe ia ʻae kau talafekau kia So ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻIsipite, pea naʻe ʻikai ʻomi ʻae meʻaʻofa ki he tuʻi ʻo ʻAsilia, ʻo hangē ko ia naʻa ne faʻa fai ʻi he taʻu kotoa pē; ko ia naʻe fakahū ia ʻe he tuʻi ʻo ʻAsilia ki he fale pōpula, mo ne haʻi ia ʻi he fale pōpula.
5 Then the king of Asshur came vp throughout all the lande, and went against Samaria, and besieged it three yeere.
Pea naʻe ʻalu hake ai ʻae tuʻi ʻo ʻAsilia ki he potu kotoa pē ʻoe fonua, mo ne ʻalu hake ki Samēlia, mo ne kāpui ia ʻaki ʻae tau ʻi he taʻu ʻe tolu.
6 In the ninth yeere of Hoshea, the King of Asshur tooke Samaria, and caryed Israel away vnto Asshur, and put them in Halah, and in Habor by the riuer of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes.
Pea ʻi hono hiva ʻoe taʻu ʻo Hosea naʻe lavaʻi ʻa Samēlia ʻe he tuʻi ʻo ʻAsilia, pea naʻa ne ʻave ʻae kakai ʻIsileli ki ʻAsilia, mo ne tuku ʻakinautolu ʻi Hala pea ʻi Hapoa ki he vaitafe ʻo Kosani, pea ʻi he ngaahi kolo ʻae kakai Mitia.
7 For when the children of Israel sinned against the Lord their God, which had brought them out of the land of Egypt, from vnder ye hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and feared other gods,
He naʻe pehē, kuo fai angahala ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli kia Sihova ko honau ʻOtua, ʻaia naʻa ne ʻomi ʻakinautolu mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite, mei he lalo nima ʻo Felo ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻIsipite, pea kuo nau manavahē ki he ngaahi ʻotua kehe.
8 And walked according to the facions of the Heathen, whom the Lord had cast out before the children of Israel, and after the maners of the Kings of Israel, which they vsed,
Pea kuo nau ʻaʻeva ʻi he ngaahi fekau ʻae kakai hiteni, ʻakinautolu naʻe kapusi atu ʻe Sihova mei he ʻao ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, pea mo e ngaahi tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli naʻa nau fakanofo.
9 And the children of Israel had done secretly things that were not vpright before the Lord their God, and throughout all their cities had built hie places, both from the tower of the watch, to the defensed citie,
Pea naʻe fai fakafufū ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻae ngaahi meʻa naʻe ʻikai totonu kia Sihova ko honau ʻOtua, pea naʻa nau langa moʻonautolu ʻae ngaahi potu māʻolunga ʻi honau ngaahi kolo kotoa pē, mei he foʻi fale māʻolunga ʻoe kau leʻo ʻo fai hake ki he kolo naʻe fakaʻā.
10 And had made them images and groues vpon euery hie hill, and vnder euery greene tree,
Pea naʻa nau fokotuʻu maʻanautolu ʻae ngaahi tamapua, mo e ngaahi vao tapu ʻi he tafungofunga māʻolunga kotoa pē, pea ʻi he lolo ʻakau mata kotoa pē:
11 And there burnt incense in all the hie places, as did the heathen, whom the Lord had taken away before them, and wrought wicked things to anger the Lord,
Pea naʻa nau tutu ʻae meʻa namu kakala ʻi he potu māʻolunga kotoa pē, ʻo hangē ko e hiteni ʻaia naʻe fakaʻauha atu mei honau ʻao ʻe Sihova; pea naʻa nau fai ʻae ngaahi meʻa kovi ke fakatupu ʻae houhau ʻo Sihova:
12 And serued idoles: whereof the Lord had sayd vnto them, Ye shall do no such thing,
He naʻa nau tauhi ki he ngaahi tamapua, ʻaia naʻe pehē ai ʻe Sihova kiate kinautolu, ʻE ʻikai te mou fai ʻae meʻa ni.
13 Notwithstanding the Lord testified to Israel, and to Iudah by all the Prophets, and by all the Seers, saying, Turne from your euill wayes, and keepe my commandements and my statutes, according to all the Lawe, which I commanded your fathers, and which I sent to you by my seruants the Prophets.
Ka naʻe valokiekina ʻe Sihova ki ʻIsileli pea ki Siuta ʻi heʻene kau palōfita kotoa pē mo e kau kikite kotoa pē, ʻo pehē, “Ke tafoki ʻakimoutolu mei homou ngaahi hala kovi, pea tauhi ki heʻeku ngaahi fekau mo ʻeku ngaahi tuʻutuʻuni ʻo fakatatau mo e fono kotoa pē ko ia ʻaia naʻaku fekau ki hoʻomou ngaahi tamai, peau fekauʻi kiate kimoutolu ʻi heʻeku kau tamaioʻeiki ko e kau palōfita.”
14 Neuerthelesse they would not obey, but hardened their neckes, like to the neckes of their fathers, that did not beleeue in the Lord their God.
Ka neongo ia naʻe ʻikai te nau fie ongoʻi, ka naʻa nau fakakekeva ʻa honau kia, ʻo hangē ko e kia ʻo ʻenau ngaahi tamai, ʻakinautolu naʻe ʻikai tui kia Sihova ko honau ʻOtua.
15 And they refused his statutes and his couenant, that he made with their fathers, and his testimonies (wherewith he witnessed vnto them) and they followed vanitie, and became vaine, and followed the heathen that were round about them: concerning whome the Lord had charged them, that they should not do like them.
Pea naʻa nau siʻaki ʻa ʻene ngaahi tuʻutuʻuni, pea mo ʻene fuakava ʻaia naʻa ne fai mo ʻenau ngaahi tamai, mo ʻene ngaahi fakamoʻoni naʻa ne fakamoʻoni ʻaki kiate kinautolu; pea naʻa nau muimui ki he vaʻinga, pea naʻa nau hoko ʻo vaʻinga, mo nau muimui ki he kakai hiteni naʻe nofo takatakai ʻiate kinautolu, ʻaia naʻe fekau ai ʻe Sihova kiate kinautolu, ke ʻoua naʻa nau fai ʻo hangē ko kinautolu.
16 Finally they left all the commandements of the Lord their God, and made them molten images, euen two calues, and made a groue, and worshipped all the hoste of heauen, and serued Baal.
Pea naʻa nau siʻaki ʻae ngaahi fekau kotoa pē ʻo Sihova ko honau ʻOtua, pea naʻa nau ngaohi maʻanautolu ʻae ngaahi meʻa fakatātā naʻe haka, ʻio, ʻae ʻuhiki pulu ʻe ua, mo nau ngaohi ha vao tapu, mo nau lotu ki he nāunau kotoa pē ʻoe langi, mo nau tauhi kia Peali.
17 And they made their sonnes and their daughters passe thorowe the fire, and vsed witchcraft and inchantments, yea, solde them selues to doe euill in the sight of the Lord, to anger him.
Pea naʻa nau pule ki honau ngaahi foha mo honau ngaahi ʻofefine ke nau ʻalu atu ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe afi, pea naʻa nau fai fakatēvolo mo nau fai ʻae sausau, pea naʻa nau fakatau atu ʻakinautolu ke fai ʻae kovi ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, ke fakatupu ai ʻa hono houhau.
18 Therefore the Lord was exceeding wroth with Israel, and put them out of his sight, and none was left but the tribe of Iudah onely.
Ko ia naʻe houhau lahi ai ʻa Sihova ki ʻIsileli, mo ne fetuku atu ʻakinautolu mei hono ʻao: naʻe ʻikai tuku ha taha ka ko e faʻahinga pe taha ʻo Siuta.
19 Yet Iudah kept not the commandements of the Lord their God, but walked according to the facion of Israel, which they vsed.
Pea naʻa mo Siuta naʻe ʻikai tauhi ʻe ia ʻae ngaahi fekau ʻa Sihova ko honau ʻOtua, ka naʻa nau ʻalu ʻi he ngaahi tuʻutuʻuni ʻo ʻIsileli ʻaia naʻa nau fokotuʻu ʻekinautolu.
20 Therefore the Lord cast off all the seede of Israel, and afflicted them, and deliuered them into the handes of spoylers, vntill he had cast them out of his sight.
Pea naʻe siʻaki ʻe Sihova ʻae hako kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli, mo ne fakamamahi ʻakinautolu, mo ne tukuange ʻakinautolu ki he nima ʻoe kau maumau, kaeʻoua ke ʻosi ʻa ʻene liʻaki ʻakinautolu mei hono ʻao.
21 For he cut off Israel from the house of Dauid, and they made Ieroboam the sonne of Nebat King: and Ieroboam drewe Israel away from following the Lord, and made them sinne a great sinne.
He naʻa ne haea mai ʻa ʻIsileli mei he fale ʻo Tevita; pea naʻa nau fakanofo ke tuʻi ʻa Selopoami ko e foha ʻo Nipati: pea naʻe teketekeʻi ʻa ʻIsileli ʻe Selopoami mei he muimui kia Sihova, pea naʻa ne fakaangahalaʻi ʻakinautolu ʻi he angahala lahi.
22 For the children of Israel walked in all the sinnes of Ieroboam, which he did, and departed not therefrom,
He naʻe ʻaʻeva ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻi he ngaahi angahala kotoa pē ʻa Selopoami ʻaia naʻa ne fai; naʻe ʻikai mahuʻi ʻakinautolu mei ai;
23 Vntill the Lord put Israel away out of his sight, as he had said by all his seruants the Prophets, and caryed Israel away out of their land to Asshur vnto this day.
Pea naʻe hiki atu ʻa ʻIsileli ʻe Sihova mei hono ʻao, ʻo hangē ko e folofola naʻa ne fai ʻi heʻene kau tamaioʻeiki ko e kau palōfita kotoa pē. Ko ia naʻe fetuku atu ai ʻa ʻIsileli mei honau fonua ʻonautolu ki ʻAsilia ʻo aʻu mai ki he ʻaho ni.
24 And the King of Asshur brought folke from Babel, and from Cuthah, and from Aua, and from Hamath, and from Sepharuaim, and placed them in the cities of Samaria in steade of the children of Israel: so they possessed Samaria, and dwelt in the cities thereof.
Pea naʻe ʻomi ʻe he tuʻi ʻo ʻAsilia ʻae kakai mei Papilone, pea mei Kuta, pea mei ʻAva, pea mei Hemati, pea mei Sifaveimi, mo ne tuku ʻakinautolu ʻi he ngaahi kolo ʻo Samēlia, ko e fetongi ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli: pea naʻa nau maʻu ʻa Samēlia, mo nofo ʻi hono ngaahi kolo ʻo ia.
25 And at the beginning of their dwelling there, they feared not the Lord: therefore the Lord sent lions among them, which slewe them.
Pea ʻi he kamataʻanga ʻo ʻenau nofo ʻi ai, naʻe ʻikai te nau manavahē kia Sihova: pea ko ia naʻe tuku atu ai ʻe Sihova ʻae fanga laione kiate kinautolu, pea naʻe mate ai ʻa honau niʻihi.
26 Wherefore they spake to the King of Asshur, saying, The nations which thou hast remoued, and placed in the cities of Samaria, knowe not the maner of the God of the land: therefore he hath sent lions among them, and behold, they slay them, because they knowe not the maner of the God of the land.
Ko ia naʻa nau lea ai ki he tuʻi ʻo ʻAsilia, ʻo pehē, ʻOku ʻikai ʻilo ʻae anga ʻoe ʻOtua ʻoe fonua ʻe he ngaahi puleʻanga kuo ke hiki mo tuku ki he ngaahi kolo ʻo Samēlia: ko ia kuo ne fekau atu ʻae fanga laione kiate kinautolu, pea vakai, ʻoku nau tāmateʻi ʻakinautolu, koeʻuhi ʻoku ʻikai ke ʻilo ʻekinautolu ʻae anga ʻoe ʻOtua ʻoe fonua.
27 Then the King of Asshur commanded, saying, Carie thither one of the Priestes whome ye brought thence, and let him goe and dwell there, and teache them the maner of the God of the countrey.
Pea naʻe toki fekau ai ʻe he tuʻi ʻo ʻAsilia, ʻo pehē, “ʻAve ki ai ha tokotaha ʻi he kau taulaʻeiki ʻaia naʻa mou ʻomi mei ai; pea tuku ke nau ʻalu ʻo nofo ʻi ai, pea tuku ke ne akoʻi ʻakinautolu ʻi he anga ʻoe ʻOtua ʻoe fonua.”
28 So one of the Priestes, which they had caryed from Samaria, came and dwelt in Beth-el, and taught them how they shoulde feare the Lord.
Pea naʻe toki haʻu ai ha tokotaha ʻi he kau taulaʻeiki ʻaia naʻa nau ʻave mei Samēlia ʻo ne nofo ʻi Peteli, pea naʻa ne akonakiʻi ʻakinautolu ke nau manavahē kia Sihova.
29 Howbeit euery nation made their gods, and put them in the houses of the hie places, which the Samaritanes had made, euery nation in their cities, wherein they dwelt.
Ka naʻe fokotuʻu ʻe he ngaahi puleʻanga taki taha ʻa hono ngaahi ʻotua ʻonautolu, mo nau ʻai ʻakinautolu ki he ngaahi fale ʻoe ngaahi potu māʻolunga ʻaia naʻe ngaohi ʻe he kakai Samēlia, ko e taki taha ʻae puleʻanga ʻi he ngaahi kolo naʻa nau nofo ki ai.
30 For the men of Babel made Succoth-Benoth: and the men of Cuth made Nergal, and the men of Hamath made Ashima,
Pea naʻe fokotuʻu ʻe he kakai ʻo Papilone ʻa Sukote-Pinoti, pea ʻe he kakai ʻo Kuta naʻe fokotuʻu ʻa Nelikali, pea ʻe he kakai ʻo Hemati naʻe fokotuʻu ʻa ʻAsima,
31 And the Auims made Nibhaz, and Tartak: and the Sepharuims burnt their children in the fire to Adrammelech, and Anammelech the gods of Sepharuaim.
Pea ʻe he kakai ʻAvi naʻe fokotuʻu ʻa Nipasi mo Talitaki, pea ʻe he kakai Sifaveimi naʻe tutu ʻenau fānau ʻi he afi kia ʻAtilameleki mo ʻAnameleki, ko e ngaahi ʻotua ʻo Sifaveimi.
32 Thus they feared the Lord, and appoynted out Priestes out of them selues for the hie places, who prepared for them sacrifices in the houses of the hie places.
Ko ia naʻa nau manavahē kia Sihova, pea naʻa nau ngaohi kiate kinautolu mei he kakai meʻavale ʻaupito ʻiate kinautolu ʻae kau taulaʻeiki ki he ngaahi potu māʻolunga, pea naʻa nau fai feilaulau ʻekinautolu ʻi he ngaahi fale ʻoe ngaahi potu māʻolunga maʻanautolu.
33 They feared the Lord, but serued their gods after the maner of the nations whome they caryed thence.
Naʻa nau manavahē kia Sihova, kae tauhi pe ki honau ngaahi ʻotua ʻonautolu, ʻo hangē ko e anga ʻoe ngaahi puleʻanga naʻa nau ʻave pōpula mei ai.
34 Vnto this day they doe after the olde maner: they neyther feare God, neyther doe after their ordinances, nor after their customes, nor after the Lawe, nor after the commandement, which the Lord commanded the children of Iaakob, whom he named Israel,
ʻOku nau fai ki heʻenau anga ʻi muʻa ʻo aʻu mai ki he ʻaho ni: ʻoku ʻikai te nau manavahē kia Sihova, pea ʻoku ʻikai fai ʻekinautolu ke tatau mo ʻenau ngaahi tuʻutuʻuni, pe ko ʻenau ngaahi fekau, pe hangē ko e fono mo e fekau ʻaia naʻe fekau ʻe Sihova ki he fānau ʻa Sēkope, ʻaia naʻa ne fakahingoa ko ʻIsileli;
35 And with whom the Lord had made a couenant, and charged them, saying, Feare none other gods, nor bowe your selues to them, nor serue them, nor sacrifice to them:
ʻAia naʻe fai ʻe Sihova mo ia ha fuakava, pea naʻa ne valoki ʻakinautolu, ʻo pehē, “ʻE ʻikai te mou manavahē ki he ngaahi ʻotua kehe, pe fakatōmapeʻe ʻakimoutolu kiate kinautolu, pe tauhi ki ai, pe feilaulau kiate kinautolu:
36 But feare the Lord which brought you out of the land of Egypt with great power, and a stretched out arme: him feare ye, and worshippe him, and sacrifice to him.
Ka ko Sihova ʻaia naʻe ʻomi ʻakimoutolu mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite ʻi he mālohi lahi, mo e nima naʻe mafao atu, ko ia ia te mou manavahē ki ai, pea ko ia ia te mou lotu ki ai, pea ko ia ia te mou fai ki ai ʻae feilaulau.
37 Also keepe ye diligently the statutes and the ordinances, and the Lawe, and the commandement, which he wrote for you, that ye do them continually, and feare not other gods.
Pea ko e ngaahi tuʻutuʻuni, mo e ngaahi fakamaau, pea mo e fono, mo e fekau, ʻaia naʻa ne tohi maʻamoutolu, te mou tokanga ke fai ia ʻo lauikuonga; pea ʻe ʻikai te mou manavahē ki ha ngaahi ʻotua kehe.
38 And forget not the couenant that I haue made with you, neither feare ye other gods,
Pea ko e fuakava ʻaia kuo u fai mo kimoutolu, ʻe ʻikai te mou fakangaloʻi; pea ʻe ʻikai foki te mou manavahē ki he ngaahi ʻotua kehe.
39 But feare the Lord your God, and he will deliuer you out of the handes of all your enemies.
Ka te mou manavahē kia Sihova ko homou ʻOtua; pea te ne fakamoʻui ʻakimoutolu mei he nima ʻo homou ngaahi fili kotoa pē.”
40 Howbeit they obeyed not, but did after their olde custome.
Ka naʻe ʻikai te nau fanongo, pea naʻa nau fai pe ʻo hangē ko ʻenau muʻaki anga.
41 So these nations feared the Lord, and serued their images also: so did their children, and their childrens children: as did their fathers, so do they vnto this day.
Ko ia, naʻe manavahē ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga ko ia kia Sihova, ka naʻa nau tauhi ki he ngaahi meʻa fakatātā naʻe tongi, ʻa ʻenau fānau mo e fānau ʻo ʻenau fānau: ʻo hangē ko ia naʻe fai ʻe heʻenau ngaahi tamai, kuo pehē pe ʻenau fai ʻekinautolu ʻo aʻu mai ki he ʻaho ni.
