2 Chronicles 11
1 And Rehoboam cometh in to Jerusalem, and assembleth the house of Judah and Benjamin, a hundred and eighty thousand chosen warriors, to fight with Israel, to bring back the kingdom to Rehoboam.
A HIKI o Rehoboama i Ierusalema, hoakoakoa ae la ia i ka ohana a Iuda a me Beniamina, hookahi haneri a me kanawalu tausani kanaka ui, he poe koa, e kaua aku i ka Iseraela, e hoihoi mai i ke aupuni ia Rehoboama.
2 And a word of Jehovah is unto Shemaiah, a man of God, saying,
A hiki mai ka olelo a Iehova ia Semaia, i ke kanaka o ke Akua, i mai la,
3 'Speak unto Rehoboam son of Solomon king of Judah, and unto all Israel in Judah and Benjamin, saying,
E olelo aku oe ia Rehoboama i ke keiki a Solomona i ke alii o ka Iuda, a i ka poe mamo a Iseraela a pau ma Iuda a me Beniamina, e i aku,
4 Thus said Jehovah, Ye do not go up nor fight with your brethren, turn back each to his house, for from Me hath this thing been;' and they hear the words of Jehovah, and turn back from going against Jeroboam.
Penei ka olelo a Iehova, Mai pii aku oukou, aole hoi oukou e kaua aku i ko oukou poe hoahanau; e hoi kela kanaka keia kanaka i kona hale iho; no ka mea, na'u aku neia mea: a lohe lakou a pau i ka olelo a Iehova, a hoi lakou mai ko lakou hele ana aku e kaua ia Ieroboama.
5 And Rehoboam dwelleth in Jerusalem, and buildeth cities for a bulwark in Judah,
A noho iho la o Rehoboama ma Ierusalema, a kukulu iho la ia ma Iuda i na kulanakauhale paa i ka pa.
6 yea, he buildeth Beth-Lehem and Etam, and Tekoa,
Kukulu iho la oia ia Betelehema, a me Etena, a me Tekoa.
7 and Beth-Zur, and Shocho, and Adullam,
A me Betazura, a me Soko, a me Adulama,
8 and Gath, and Mareshah, and Ziph,
A me Gata, a me Anaresa, a me Zipa,
9 and Adoraim, and Lachish, and Azekah,
A me Adoraima, a me Lakisa, a me Azeka,
10 and Zorah, and Aijalon, and Hebron, that [are] in Judah and in Benjamin, cities of bulwarks.
A me Zora, a me Aialona, a me Heberona, aia no ma Iuda, a ma Beniamina, he mau kulanakauhale paa i ka pa.
11 And he strengtheneth the bulwarks, and putteth in them leaders, and treasures of food, and oil, and wine,
A hoopaa iho la oia i na paakaua, a hoonoho aku la iloko olaila i na luna a me na ahu ai, a me ka aila, a me ka waina.
12 and in every city and city targets and spears, and strengtheneth them very greatly; and he hath Judah and Benjamin.
A iloko o kela kulanakauhale keia kulanakauhale, waiho iho la ia i na palekaua, a me na ihe, hana iho la oia malaila a paa loa, a ia ia o Iuda a me Beniamina ma kona aoao.
13 And the priests, and the Levites, that [are] in all Israel, have stationed themselves by him, out of all their border,
A o na kahuna, a me na Levi iwaena o ka Iseraela a pau, hele mai lakou io na la, mai kauwahi o lakou a pau mai.
14 for the Levites have left their suburbs and their possession, and they come to Judah and to Jerusalem, for Jeroboam and his sons have cast them off from acting as priests to Jehovah,
No ka mea, haalele ka poe Levi i na wahi o lakou, a me ko lakou hooiliua, a hele lakou i Iuda, a i Ierusalema, no ka mea, kipaku o Ieroboama a me kana mau keiki ia lakou mailoko aku o ka oihana kahuna no Iehova:
15 and he establisheth to him priests for high places, and for goats, and for calves, that he made —
A hoonoho oia nona i na kahuna, no na wahi kiekie, a no na kao, a no na keiki bipi ana i hana'i.
16 and after them, out of all the tribes of Israel, those giving their heart to seek Jehovah, God of Israel, have come in to Jerusalem to sacrifice to Jehovah, God of their father.
A mahope o keia mau mea, o ka poe a pau noloko o na ohana a pau o ka Iseraela i haawi aku i ko lakou mau naau e imi ia Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela, hele mai lakou i Ierusalema e mohai aku ia Iehova, i ke Akua o ko lakou poe kupuna.
17 And they strengthen the kingdom of Judah, and strengthen Rehoboam son of Solomon, for three years, because they walked in the way of David and Solomon for three years.
A hookupaa iho la lakou i ke aupuni o Iuda, a hookupaa no hoi ia Rehoboama i ke keiki a Solomona i na makahiki ekolu; no ka mea, i na makahiki ekolu, hele lakou ma ka aoao o Davida a me Solomona.
18 And Rehoboam taketh to him a wife, Mahalath, child of Jerimoth son of David, [and] Abigail daughter of Eliab, son of Jesse.
A lawe iho la o Rehoboama i wahine nana, ia Mehalata, i ke kaikamahine a Ieremota, ke keiki a Davida, a me Abehaila, ke kaikamahine a Eliaba ke keiki a Iese.
19 And she beareth to him sons, Jeush, and Shamaria, and Zaham.
A hanau mai oia nana i na keiki, o Ieusa, me Samaria, a me Zahama.
20 And after her he hath taken Maachah daughter of Absalom, and she beareth to him Abijah, and Attai, and Ziza, and Shelomith.
A mahope iho, lawe oia ia Maaka i ke kaikamahine a Abesaloma; a hanau mai oia nana o Abiia, a me Atai, a me Ziza. a me Silomita.
21 And Rehoboam loveth Maachah daughter of Absalom above all his wives and his concubines — for eighteen wives he hath taken, and sixty concubines — and he begetteth twenty and eight sons, and sixty daughters.
Aloha iho la o Rehoboama ia Maaka i ke kaikamahine a Abesaloma, mamua o kana mau wahine a pau, a me kana poe haiawahine; (no ka mea, aia no ia ia he umikumamawalu wahine, a me na haiawahine he kanaono; a hanau mai he iwakalua a me kumamawalu na keikikane, a me na kaikamahine he kanaono.)
22 And Rehoboam appointeth for head Abijah son of Maachah, for leader among his brethren, for to cause him to reign.
Hoonoho iho la o Rehoboama ia Abiia i ke keiki a Maaka i luna mawaena o kona poe hoahanau, no ka hoalii aku ia ia.
23 And he hath understanding, and spreadeth out of all his sons to all lands of Judah and Benjamin, to all cities of the bulwarks, and giveth to them provision in abundance; and he asketh a multitude of wives.
A hana maalea iho la oia, a hoonoho liilii ia i kana poe keiki ma na aina a pau o Iuda a me Beniamina, a iloko o na kulanakauhale a pau i paa i ka pa, a haawi aku oia ia lakou i ka ai a nui. Makemake iho la ia i na wahine he nui loa.
