< 2 Kings 1 >

1 After King Ahab died, [the country of] Moab rebelled against Israel.
A LAILA kipi ae la ka Moaba i ka Iseraela, mahope o ka make ana o Ahaba.
2 One day, Ahaziah, [the new king of Israel, ] fell through the wooden slats/boards around the edge of the flat roof [of his palace] in Samaria. He was badly injured, so he summoned some messengers and told them, “Go to Ekron [city in Philistia], and ask their god Baalzebub whether I will (recover/become well).”
A haule iho la o Ahazia ilalo i kona papaholo, mailuna mai o ka pahale ma Samaria, a mai iho la: a hoouna aku la ia i na elele, a i aku la ia lakou, E hele oukou e ninau aku ia Baalazebuba, ke akua o Ekerona, i ko'u ola ana i keia mai.
3 But an angel from Yahweh said to Elijah, the prophet from Tishbe [town], “The king of Samaria [is sending] some messengers [to Ekron]. Go and meet them and say to them, ‘Is it because there is no God in Israel that you are going to Ekron to ask Baalzebub, the god of those people, [whether you will recover]?
Olelo mai la ka anela o Iehova ia Elia no Tiseba, E ku, a hele aku e halawai me na elele o ke alii o Samaria, a e i aku ia lakou, No ka nele anei o ka Iseraela i ke Akua, nolaila hele ai oukou e ninau ia Baalazebuba, ke akua o Ekerona?
4 Yahweh says [that you should tell King Ahaziah] that he will not recover from his being injured; he will surely die.’”
Ano hui, ke olelo mai nei o Iehova peneia, Aole oe e iho ilalo, mai kahi moe mai au i pii aku ai; aka, e make io no oe. A hoi aku la o Elia.
5 [So Elijah went to meet] the messengers [and told that to them, and they] returned to the king [instead of going to Ekron]. The king asked them, “Why did you return [so soon]?”
A i ka hoi ana'ku o na elele, ninau mai la kela ia lakou, No ke aha la oukou i hoi hou mai nei?
6 They replied, “A man came to meet us, and said to us, ‘Return to the king who sent you and tell him that Yahweh says, “(Is it because there no God in Israel that you are sending [messengers] to Ekron to consult Baalzebub, their god?/You seem to think there is no God in Israel, with the result that you are sending [messengers] to Ekron to ask Baalzebub, their god, [whether you will recover].) [RHQ] [Go tell the king that] he will not recover from being injured; instead, he will surely die.”’”
I aku la lakou ia ia, I hele mai kekahi kanaka e halawai me makou, a i mai la ia makou, Ou haele, e hoi hou i ke alii, nana oukou i hoouna mai nei, a e olelo aku ia ia, Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova peneia, No ka nele anei o ka Iseraela i ke Akua, nolaila anei i hoouna aku ai oe e ninau ia Baalazebuba ke akua o Ekerona? no ia mea, aole oe e iho ilalo mai kahi moe mai au i pii aku ai, aka, e make io no oe.
7 The king said to them, “The man who came to meet you and told that to you, what did he look like?”
Ninau mai la oia ia lakou, Heaha la ke ano o ke kanaka i pii mai ai e halawai me oukou, a i hai mai hoi ia oukou i keia mau olelo?
8 They replied, “He was a hairy man and he had a [wide] leather belt around his waist.” The king exclaimed, “That was Elijah!”
I aku la lakou ia ia, He kanaka huluhulu, a na kaeiia kona puhaka i ke kaei ili. I mai la ia, O Elia no ia no Tiaeba.
9 Then the king sent an officer with 50 soldiers to seize Elijah. They found Elijah sitting on the top of a hill. The officer called out to him, “Prophet, the king commands that you come down here!”
Alaila hoouna aku ke alii io na la i lunakanalima me kona poe he kanalima; a pii aku la ia io na la; aia hoi, e noho ana ia maluna pono o kekahi puu; i aku la oia ia ia, E ke kanaka o ke Akua, ua i mai ke alii, E iho oe ilalo.
10 But Elijah replied, “I am a prophet; so, I command that fire come down from the sky and burn up you and your 50 soldiers!” Immediately, fire came down from the sky and completely burned up the officer and his 50 [soldiers].
Olelo mai la o Elia, i mai la i ka lunakanalima, Ina he kanaka wau no ke Akua, e haule mai ke ahi mai ka lani mai, a e hoopau ia oe, a me kou poe he kanalima. Alaila haule mai ke ahi mai ka lani mai, a hoopau iho la ia ia, a me kona poe he kanalima.
11 [When the king found out about that, ] he sent another officer with 50 more soldiers. They went [to where Elijah was], and the officer called out to him, “Prophet, the king commands that you come down immediately!”
Hoouna hou aku la ia io na la i lunakanalima e ae, me kona poe he kanalima; a olelo aku la ia ia, i aku la, E ke kanaka o ke Akua, ua i mai ke alii peneia, E iho koke oe ilalo.
12 But Elijah replied, “I am a prophet; [to prove that, ] I command that fire come down from the sky and kill you and your soldiers!” Then a fire from God came down from the sky and killed the officer and his soldiers.
Olelo mai la o Elia, i mai la ia lakou, Ina he kanaka wau no ke Akua, e haule mai ke ahi mai ka lani mai, a e hoopau ia oe, a me kou poe he kanalima. A haule mai ke ahi a ke Akua mai ka lani mai, a hoopau ia ia, a me kona poe he kanalima.
13 [When the king heard about that] he sent another officer with 50 more soldiers. [They went to where Elijah was], and the officer prostrated himself in front of Elijah, and said to him, “Prophet, I plead with you, be kind to me and my 50 soldiers, and (do not kill us/allow us to remain alive)!
A hoouna hou aku la ia i luna o ke kolu o ke kanalima me kona poe he kanalima; a pii aku la ke kolu o ka lunakanalima, a hele aku a kukuli iho la imua o Elia, a nonoi aku ia ia, i aku la ia ia, E ke kanaka o ke Akua, ke nonoi aku nei au ia oe, e malamaia ko'u oia, a me ke ola o keia kanalima, kau poe kauwa imua o kou maka.
14 [We know that] two times fire came down from the sky and killed officers and the 50 soldiers who were with them. So now, please be kind to me!”
Aia hoi, i haule mai ke ahi mai ka lani mai, a hoopau iho la i na lunakanalima elua mamua, a me ko laua mau kanalima: ano hoi, e malamaia ko'u oia imua ou maka.
15 Then the angel from Yahweh said to Elijah, “Go down [and go] with him. Do not be afraid of him.” So Elijah went with them to the king.
Olelo mai la ka anela o Iehova ia Elia, E iho oe ilalo me ia; mai makau ia ia. Ku ae la ia, a iho pu iho la me ia i ke alii.
16 [When Elijah arrived, ] he said to the king, “This is what Yahweh says: ‘You sent messengers to go to Ekron to ask Baalzebub, their god, [whether you would recover]. You acted as though [RHQ] there is no God in Israel to consult. So you will not recover from being injured; instead, you are going to die!’”
I aku la oia ia ia, Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova peneia, No kou hoouna ana'ku i na elele e ninau ia Baalazebuba ke akua o Ekerona, no ka nele anei o ka Iseraela i ke Akua e ninau ai ma kana olelo? no ia mea, aole oe e iho ilalo mai kahi moe au i pii aku ai, aka, e make io no oe.
17 So Ahaziah died, which is what Yahweh told Elijah would happen. Ahaziah’s [younger] brother Joram became the new king, when Jehoram, the son of Jehoshaphat, had been ruling Judah for almost two years. Ahaziah’s brother became the king because Ahaziah had no son [to become the king].
A make iho la no ia, e like me ka Iehova olelo a Elia i olelo ai; a noho alii iho la o Iehorama ma kona hakahaka, i ka lua o ka makahiki o Iehorama ke keiki a Iehosapata ke alii o ka Iuda; no ka mea, aohe ana keiki.
18 [If you want to know about] all the other things that Ahaziah did, they are [RHQ] written in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Israel’.
A o na mea i koe a Ahazia ana i hana'i, aole anei i kakauia lakou iloko o ka buke oihanaalii a na'lii o ka Iseraela?
