Isaiah 36
1 Now in the fourteenth year of King Hezekiah, Sennacherib king of Assyria attacked all of the fortified cities of Judah and captured them.
I KA makahiki umikumamaha o ke alii, o Hezekia, pii ku e mai la Sanekariba ke alii o Asuria, i na kulanakauhale a pau i paa i ka pa o ka Iuda, a hoopio iho la ia lakou.
2 The king of Assyria sent Rabshakeh from Lachish to Jerusalem to King Hezekiah with a large army. He stood by the aqueduct from the upper pool in the fuller’s field highway.
A hoouna ae la ke alii o Asuria ia Rabesake, mai Lakisa ae, a i Ierusalema, i ke alii io Hezekia la, me na koa he nui loa. A ku iho la oia ma ka auwai o ka waipuna luna, ma ke ala e hiki aku ai i ke kula o ka mea holoi lole.
3 Then Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, who was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah, the son of Asaph the recorder came out to him.
Alaila, hele aku la io na la, o Eliakima, ke keiki a Hilekia, o ka mea maluna o ko ka hale, a me Sebena, ke kakauolelo, a me Ioa, ke keiki a Asana, ke kakaumooolelo.
4 Rabshakeh said to them, “Now tell Hezekiah, ‘The great king, the king of Assyria, says, “What confidence is this in which you trust?
I mai la o Rabesake ia lakou, E i aku oukou ia Hezekia, ke olelo mai nei ke alii nui, ke alii o Asuria penei, Heaha keia hilinai ana au e hilinai nei?
5 I say that your counsel and strength for the war are only vain words. Now in whom do you trust, that you have rebelled against me?
Ke olelo nei au, he olelo lapuwale kou akamai a me kou ikaika i ke kaua. Ke hilinai aku nei oe ia wai, i kipi mai ai oe ia'u?
6 Behold, you trust in the staff of this bruised reed, even in Egypt, which if a man leans on it, it will go into his hand and pierce it. So is Pharaoh king of Egypt to all who trust in him.
Aia ka! ke hilinai nei oe i ke kookoo o keia ohe naha, o Aigupita, ka mea e komo ai i ka lima a puka, ke hilinai ke kanaka maluna ona. Pela o Parao, ke alii o Aigupita i ka poe a pau i hilinai maluna ona.
7 But if you tell me, ‘We trust in the LORD our God,’ isn’t that he whose high places and whose altars Hezekiah has taken away, and has said to Judah and to Jerusalem, ‘You shall worship before this altar’?”
Aka, ina olelo mai oe ia'u. Ke hilinai aku nei makou ia Iehova, i ko makou Akua; aole anei oia ka mea nona na wahi kiekie, a nona hoi na kuahu a Hezekia i wawahi ai, a ua olelo no hoi i ka Iuda, a i ko Ierusalema, Mamua o keia kuahu oukou e hoomana'i?
8 Now therefore, please make a pledge to my master the king of Assyria, and I will give you two thousand horses, if you are able on your part to set riders on them.
Ano la, ea, e hoolimalima oe me kuu haku, me ke alii o Asuria, a e haawi aku no au ia oe i elua tausani lio, ina paha e hiki ia oe ke hoonoho i na hololio maluna o lakou.
9 How then can you turn away the face of one captain of the least of my master’s servants, and put your trust in Egypt for chariots and for horsemen?
Pehea hoi oe e hoohuli aku ai i ka maka o kekahi luna uuku o na kauwa a kuu haku, a hilinai hoi maluna o Aigupita, no na kaakaua, a no na hololio?
10 Have I come up now without the LORD against this land to destroy it? The LORD said to me, “Go up against this land, and destroy it.”’”
Ano hoi, aole anei o Iehova kekahi pu me au i pii mai nei i keia aina, e luku ia? Ua olelo mai no o Iehova ia'u, E pii ae oe i keia aina, a e luku iho ia.
11 Then Eliakim, Shebna and Joah said to Rabshakeh, “Please speak to your servants in Aramaic, for we understand it. Don’t speak to us in the Jews’ language in the hearing of the people who are on the wall.”
Alaila, olelo aku la o Eliakima, a me Sebena, a me Ioa, ia Rabesake, Ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e olelo mai oe i kau mau kauwa nei ma ka olelo Suria, no ka mea, ua ike makou ia. Mai olelo mai ma ka olelo Iudaio, ma na pepeiao o na kanaka maluna o ka pa.
12 But Rabshakeh said, “Has my master sent me only to your master and to you, to speak these words, and not to the men who sit on the wall, who will eat their own dung and drink their own urine with you?”
Aka, olelo mai la o Rabesake, Ua hoouna mai nei anei ko'u haku ia'u i kou haku, a iou la, e olelo i keia mau olelo? Aole anei i ka poe kanaka e noho ana ma ka pa, i ai lakou i ko lakou lepo iho, a inu hoi i ko lakou mimi iho me oukou?
13 Then Rabshakeh stood, and called out with a loud voice in the Jews’ language, and said, “Hear the words of the great king, the king of Assyria!
Alaila, ku mai la o Rabesake, a hea ae la me ka leo nui, ma ka olelo Iudaio, i ae la, E hoolohe mai oukou i na olelo a ke alii nui, ke alii o Asuria.
14 The king says, ‘Don’t let Hezekiah deceive you; for he will not be able to deliver you.
Ke i mai nei ke alii penei, Mai walewale oukou ia Hezekia, no ka mea, aole e hiki ia ia ke hoopakele ia oukou.
15 Don’t let Hezekiah make you trust in the LORD, saying, “The LORD will surely deliver us. This city won’t be given into the hand of the king of Assyria.”’
Mai ae aku i ko Hezekia hooikaika ana ia oukou e hilinai ia Iehova, i ka i ana iho, E oiaio no e hoopakele o Iehova ia kakou; aole e haawiia keia kulanakauhale iloko o ka lima o ke alii o Asuria.
16 Don’t listen to Hezekiah, for the king of Assyria says, ‘Make your peace with me, and come out to me; and each of you eat from his vine, and each one from his fig tree, and each one of you drink the waters of his own cistern;
Mai hoolohe i ka Hezekia; no ka mea, ke olelo mai nei ke alii o Asuria penei, E hana oukou me au i kuikahi, a e puka mai iwaho io'u nei; a e ai kela mea keia mea o oukou i ko kona kumu waina, a i ko kona laau fiku, a e inu hoi keia mea, keia mea o oukou i ka wai o kona luawai iho;
17 until I come and take you away to a land like your own land, a land of grain and new wine, a land of bread and vineyards.
A hiki aku au, a lawe aku ia oukou i ka aina e like me ko oukou aina iho, he aina ai, a waina hoi, he aina berena, a me na pawaina.
18 Beware lest Hezekiah persuade you, saying, “The LORD will deliver us.” Have any of the gods of the nations delivered their lands from the hand of the king of Assyria?
E ao oukou, o hoowalewale mai o Hezekia ia oukou, i ka i ana mai, E hoopakele mai no o Iehova ia kakou. Ua hoopakele anei na akua o kekahi lahuikanaka i ko lakou aina iho, mai ka lima aku o ke alii o Asuria?
19 Where are the gods of Hamath and Arpad? Where are the gods of Sepharvaim? Have they delivered Samaria from my hand?
Aia la ihea na'kua o Hamata a me Arepada? Auhea hoi na'kua o Separevaima? Ua hoopakele anei lakou ia Samaria mai ko'u lima aku?
20 Who are they amongst all the gods of these countries that have delivered their country out of my hand, that the LORD should deliver Jerusalem out of my hand?’”
Owai la ka mea o na'kua o ia mau aina a pau nana i hoopakele i kona aina iho, mai ko'u lima aku, i hoopakele ai o Iehova ia Ierusalema, mai ko'u lima aku?
21 But they remained silent, and said nothing in reply, for the king’s commandment was, “Don’t answer him.”
Ekemu ole lakou, aole i olelo aku ia ia i kekahi huaolelo; no ka mea, oia ke kauoha a ke alii, i mai la, Mai olelo aku ia ia.
22 Then Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, who was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah, the son of Asaph the recorder, came to Hezekiah with their clothes torn, and told him the words of Rabshakeh.
Alaila, hele mai la o Eliakima, ke keiki a Hilekia, ka mea maluna o ko ka hale, a me Sebena, ke kakauolelo, a me Ioa, ke keiki a Asapa, ke kakaumooolelo, io Hezekia la, me ka haehaeia o ka lole, a hai ae la ia ia i na olelo a Rabesake.
