< 2 Chronicles 20 >
1 And it came to pass, after this, that the sons of Moab and the sons of Ammon, and, with them, some of the Meunim, came against Jehoshaphat, to battle.
A MAHOPE iho o keia mau mea, hiki mai la ka Moaba, a me ka Amona, a me lakou pu kekahi poe e ae, aole no ka Amona, e kaua mai ia Iehosapata.
2 And there came [some] and told Jehoshaphat, saying, There is coming against thee, a great multitude from beyond the sea, from Syria, —and lo! they are in Hazazon-tamar, the same, is Engedi.
Hele mai la kekahi poe a hai mai ia Iehosapata, i mai la, E hiki mai ana i ou la he poe nui, mai kela aoao mai o ke kai mai Suria mai; aia hoi lakou ma Hazezona-tamara, oia o Enegedi.
3 And Jehoshaphat was afraid, and set his face to seek unto Yahweh, —and proclaimed a fast for all Judah.
A makau iho la o Iehosapata, a halalo iho la kona maka e imi ia Iehova, a kukala aku la i la hookeai ma Iuda a pau loa.
4 And Judah gathered themselves together, to enquire of Yahweh, —even, out of all the cities of Judah, came they in, to seek Yahweh.
A hoakoakoa mai la ka Iuda e imi ia Iehova; noloko mai o na kulanakauhale a pau o Iuda i hele mai ai lakou e imi ia Iehova.
5 And Jehoshaphat stood, in the convocation of Judah and Jerusalem in the house of Yahweh, —before the new court;
Alaila, ku iluna o Iehosapata iloko o ka ahakanaka o Iuda a me Ierusalema, iloko o ka hale o Iehova imua o ka pahale hou;
6 and said, O Yahweh, God of our fathers, art not, thou, God in the heavens? and art, thou, not ruling throughout all the kingdoms of the nations? and, in thy hand, [are there not] strength and might? and is there any who, against thee, can stand?
Olelo aku la, E Iehova ke Akua o ko makou poe kupuna, aole anei oe ke Akua o ka lani? aole anei oe e noho alii ana maluna o na aupuni a pau o na lahuikanaka, a iloko hoi o kou lima ka mana, a me ka ikaika, i hiki ole i kekahi ke ku e ia oe?
7 Art not, thou, our God, who didst dispossess the inhabitants of this land, from before thy people Israel, —and didst give it unto the seed of Abraham who loved thee, unto times age-abiding?
Aole anei oe ko makou Akua, ka mea nana i kipaku i ko keia aina imua o kou poe kanaka o ka Iseraela, a haawi ia mea i ka poe mamo a Aberahama kou mea i aloha ai, i mea mau loa.
8 and they have dwelt therein, —and have built for thee therein, a sanctuary for thy Name, saying:
A noho lakou malaila, a kukulu lakou no kou inoa i luakini, me ka i ana aku,
9 If there come upon us calamity, the sword of judgment or pestilence or famine, we will stand before this house and before thee, for, thy Name, is in this house, —that we may make outcry unto thee out of our distress, that thou mayest hear and save.
I ka hiki ana mai o ka mea ino maluna o makou, o ka pahi kaua, o ka hoopaiia mai, o ke ahulau, a o ka wi, a ku makou imua o keia hale, a imua ou, (no ka mea, aia iloko o keia hale kou inoa, ) a kahea aku ia oe i ko makou wa pilikia, alaila e hoolohe mai oe, a e hoola.
10 Now, therefore, lo! the sons of Ammon and Moab and Mount Seir, whom thou didst not suffer Israel to invade, when they came out of the land of Egypt, —but they turned away from them and destroyed them not,
Ano, eia hoi ka Amona, a me ka Moaba, a me ko ka mauna o Seira, ka poe au i haawi ole ai i ka Iseraela e hele io lakou la, i ko lakou hele ana mai ka aina o Aigupita mai, no ia mea, huli lakou mai o lakou aku, aole i luku ia lakou.
11 yea lo! they, are requiting us, —by coming to drive us out, from thy possession, which thou didst cause us to possess.
Eia hoi ko lakou uku ana mai ia makou, hele mai lakou e kipaku mai ia makou mai ko makou ainahooili aku, ka mea au i haawi mai ai ia makou.
12 O our God, wilt thou not bring judgment upon them, seeing that there is, in us, no strength, before this great multitude, that is coming against us, —we, therefore, know not what we shall do, but, unto thee, are our eyes.
E ko makou Akua e, aole anei oe e hoopai ia lakou? no ka mea, aole o makou mana imua o keia poe nui, ka poe i hele ku e mai ia makou; aole makou i ike i ka mea e pono ai makou ke hana, aka, ia oe ko makou mau maka.
13 And, all Judah, were standing before Yahweh, —also their little ones, their wives and their children.
A ku imua o Iehova ka Iuda a pau loa, me ko lakou poe uuku, a me ka lakou poe wahine, a me ka lakou poe kamalii.
14 Now, as for Jahaziel son of Zechariah son of Benaiah son of Jeiel son of Mattaniah a Levite, of the sons of Asaph, there came upon him the spirit of Yahweh, in the midst of the convocation:
Alaila, i ke ku ana o Iahaziela iwaena o ka ahakanaka, kau mai la ka Uhane o Iehova maluna ona, oia ke keiki a Zekaria, ke keiki a Benaia, ke keiki a Matanaia ka Levi, no ka poe mamo a Asapa.
15 and he said, Give ye heed, all Judah and ye inhabitants of Jerusalem, and King Jehoshaphat! Thus, saith Yahweh unto you. As for you, do not fear nor be dismayed, by reason of this great multitude, for, not yours, is the battle, but, God’s.
Olelo mai la oia, E hoolohe oukou, e ka Iuda a pau, a me ko Ierusalema, a o oe kekahi, e ke alii, e Iehosapata, penei i olelo mai ai o Iehova, Mai makau oukou, aole hopohopo imua o keia poe nui; no ka mea, aole ia oukou ke kaua. i ke Akua no.
16 To-morrow, go ye down against them, for lo! there they are coming up by the ascent of Ziz, —and ye shall find them at the end of the ravine, facing the wilderness of Jeruel.
I ka la apopo e iho ku e oukou io lakou la, aia hoi lakou e pii mai ana i ka pali o Ziza; a e loaa lakou ia oukou ma ke kapa o ke kahawai imua o ka waonahele o Ieruela.
17 It is not, for you, to fight in this matter, —take your station, stand still, and see the salvation of Yahweh with you, O Judah and Jerusalem, do not fear, nor be dismayed, to-morrow, go ye out to meet them, and, Yahweh, will be with you.
Aole oukou e kaua i keia manawa, e hoomakaukau oukou, e ku malie, a e nana i ko Iehova hoola ana mai ia oukou, e ka Iuda, a me ko Ierusalema; mai makau oukou, mai hopohopo; i ka la apopo, e hele ku e aku oukou io lakou la. O Iehova pu kekahi me oukou.
18 And Jehoshaphat bowed his head, with his face to the ground, —and, all Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, fell down before Yahweh, prostrating themselves unto Yahweh.
Alaila, kulou iho la o Iehosapata ilalo kona maka i ka honua; a o ka Iuda a pau, a me ko Ierusalema, haule iho la lakou ilalo imua o Iehova, e hoomana aku ia Iehova.
19 And Levites—of the sons of the Kohathites and of the sons of the Korahites, stood up to offer praise unto Yahweh, God of Israel, with an exceedingly loud voice.
Ku iluna na Levi, no na Kohata, a me na Kora, o hoolea aku ia Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela me ka leo kiekie.
20 So they rose early in the morning, and went out to the wilderness of Tekoa, —and, as they went out, Jehoshaphat stood and said, Hear me, O Judah, and ye inhabitants of Jerusalem, Trust ye in Yahweh your God, and ye shall be trusted, Trust ye in his prophets, and ye shall prosper.
Ala lakou i ke kakahiaka nui, a hele lakou i ka waonahele o Tekoa; a i ko lakou bele ana aku, ku iluna o Iehosapata, olelo aku la, E hoolohe mai ia'u e ka Iuda, a me ko Ierusalema; e manaoio ia Iehova i ko oukou Akua, i hookupaaia oukou; e manaoio i kana poe kaula, i lanakila oukou.
21 And, when he had given counsel unto the people, he appointed such as should sing unto Yahweh, and offer praise with holy adorning, —as they should be going forth before the armed men, that they should be saying, O give thanks unto Yahweh, For, age-abiding, is his lovingkindness.
A kukakuka pu oia me na kanaka, a hoonoho oia i kekahi poe hoolea mele ia Iehova o hoomaikai aku i ka nani o kona hemolele, i ko lakou hele ana imua o ka poe kaua, i ka i ana aku, E hoolea aku ia Iehova; no ka mea, ua mau loa kona aloha.
22 And, when they began to sing and to praise, Yahweh had set liers-in-wait against the sons of Ammon, Moab and Mount Seir, who were coming against Judah, and they were smitten.
A i ka wa o ko lakou hoolea ana, a hoomaikai aku, hoonoho iho la o Iehova i poe hoohalua mahope o na mamo a Amona, a me Moaba, a me ko ka mauna o Seira, i ko lakou hele ku e ana ia Iuda; a ua lukuia lakou.
23 Then rose up the sons of Ammon and Moab against the inhabitants of Mount Seir, to devote and to destroy, —and when they had made an end of the inhabitants of Seir, they helped to cut off, every man his neighbour.
O ka poe mamo a Amona a me ka Moaba, ku e lakou i ko ka mauna o Seira, a luku, a pepehi ia lakou a pau loa, a hoopau lakou i ko Seira; alaila, mokuahana iho la lakou, a pepehi lakou i kekahi i kekahi.
24 So when, Judah, came near the watch-tower of the wilderness, —they turned towards the multitude, and lo! there they were, dead bodies fallen to the earth, with none to escape.
A hiki ka Iuda i ka halekiai ma ka waonahele, nana aku la i ka lehulehu, aia hoi, na heana o ka poe i haule i ka honua, aole wahi mea pakele.
25 And, when Jehoshaphat and his people came near to plunder the spoil of them, they found among them, in abundance, both riches and dead bodies and precious jewels, and they stripped off for themselves, beyond what they could carry away, —and they were three days plundering the spoil, for great it was.
A hiki o Iehosapata a me kona poe kanaka e lawe aku i ka waiwai pio, ua loaa ia lakou ka waiwai nui loa ma ka ili o na heana, a me na mea maikai loa, a ua hao iho la lakou ia mau mea no lakou iho, aole pau i ka haliia; a ekolu la o ko lakou hali ana i ka waiwai pio, no ka mea, ua nui loa ia.
26 And, on the fourth day, they assembled themselves in the vale of Beracah, for there they blessed Yahweh, —on this account, was the name of that place called The Vale of Beracah—unto this day.
A i ka po aha, hoakoakoaia lakou ma ke awawa o Beraka; no ka mea, malaila lakou i hoomaikai aku ai ia Iehova; no ia mea, ua kapaia ka inoa o ia wahi, o ke awawa o I Beraka a hiki i keia la.
27 Then turned every man of Judah and Jerusalem, with, Jehoshaphat, at their head, to go again to Jerusalem with joy, —for Yahweh had caused them to rejoice over their enemies.
Alaila, hoi ka Iuda a pau a me ko Ierusalema, a o Iehosapata ka mea mamua, i ka hoi ana i Ierusalema, me ka olioli; no ka mea, ua hoohauoli o Iehova ia lakou maluna o ko lakou poe enemi.
28 So they came to Jerusalem, with harps and with lyres, and with trumpets, —unto the house of Yahweh.
A hoi mai lakou i Ierusalema me na mea kani, a me na mea ukeke, a me na pu, i ka hale o Iehova.
29 And it came to pass that, the dread of God, was upon all the kingdoms of the countries, -when they heard, that Yahweh had fought against the enemies of Israel.
A kau mai ka weliweli i ke Akua maluna o na aupuni o ka honua, i ko lakou lohe ana, ua kaua aku o Iehova i ka poe enemi o ka Iseraela.
30 So the kingdom of Jehoshaphat was quiet, —for his God, gave him rest, round about.
A ua maluhia ke aupuni o Iehosapata, a ua hoomalu mai kona Akua ia ia a puni.
31 Thus Jehoshaphat reigned over Judah, —thirty-five years old, was he when he began to reign, and, twenty-five years, reigned he in Jerusalem, and the, name of his mother, was Azubah, daughter of Shilhi.
A noho alii o Iehosapata maluna o ka Iuda. He kanakolukumamalima makahiki kona i kona hoomaka ana e noho alii, a noho alii ia i na makahiki he iwakaluakumamalima, a o ka inoa o kona makuwahine, o Azuba, ke kaikamahine a Silehi.
32 And he walked in the way of his father Asa, and turned not from it, —doing that which was right, in the eyes of Yahweh.
A hele ia ma ka aoao o kona makuakane o Asa, aole i huli mai ia aoao aku; ua hana oia i na mea pololei i na maka o Iehova.
33 Howbeit, the high places, were not taken away, —for as yet, the people, had not fixed their heart unto the God of their fathers.
Aka, aole i hoohioloia na wahi kiekie: aole hoomakaukau na kanaka i ko lakou mau naau no ke Akua o ko lakou poe kupuna.
34 But, the rest of the story of Jehoshaphat, first and last, lo! there it is written in the story of Jehu son of Hanani, which hath been added to the book of the Kings of Israel.
A o ke koena o na hana a Iehosapata, na mea mua, a me na mea hope, aia hoi, ua kakauia iloko o ka buke a Iehu ko keiki a Henani, ka mea i oleloia'i iloko o ka buke o na'lii o ka Iseraela.
35 Yet, after this, did Jehoshaphat king of Judah join himself with Ahaziah king of Israel, —he, was lawless in his doings;
A mahope aku, hui pu o Iehosapata ke alii o Iuda me Ahazia, ko alii o ka Iseraela, ka mea i hana hewa.
36 and he joined with him, to make ships to go unto Tarshish, —and they made ships in Ezion-geber,
Huipu oia me ia e hana i mau moku e holo i Taresa. A hana no laua i mau moku ma Eziona-gebera.
37 Then prophesied, Eliezer son of Dodavahu of Mareshah, against Jehoshaphat, saying, —Because thou hast joined thyself with Ahaziah, Yahweh hath broken in pieces thy works. So the ships were wrecked, and were not able to go unto Tarshish.
Alaila, wanana mai la o Eliezera ke keiki a Dodava no Maresa, ia Iehosapata, i mai la, I kou huipu ana me Ahazia, e wawahi auanei o Iehova i ka mea au i hana'i. A naha iho la na moku, aole i hiki ia lakou ke holo i Taresa.
