I Na Lii 21
1 EIA hoi kekahi mea mahope mai o ia mau mea, he malawaina ia Nabota no Iezereela, maloko ia o Iezereela, e pili ana i ka halealii o Ahaba ke alii o Samaria.
And it came to pass, after these things, that Naboth the Jezreelite had, a vineyard, which was in Jezreel, —hard by the palace of Ahab, king of Samaria.
2 Olelo mai la o Ahaba ia Nabota, i mai la, E haawi mai oe i kou malawaina, i lilo ia ia'u i mala laauikiai, no ka mea, e kokoke mai ana no ia i ko'u hale; a e haawi aku au nau i ka malawaina e oi aku kona mai kai mamua o keia: a i pono ia oe, e haawi aku au ia oe i ke kala e like kona waiwai me ia.
Ahab, therefore, spake unto Naboth, saying—Come! give me thy vineyard, that I may have it for a garden of herbs, for, the same, is near by my house, and let me give thee, instead thereof, a vineyard better than it, —if it be good in thine eyes, I will give thee silver to the value of this.
3 I aku la o Nabota ia Ahaba, Na Iehova wau e hoole mai, i ole e haawi au i ka hooilina o ko'u mau makua ia oe.
And Naboth said unto Ahab, —Far be it from me, of Yahweh! that I should give up the inheritance of my fathers, unto thee!
4 Hele ae la hoi o Ahaba iloko o kona hale me ke kaumaha, a me ka huhu, no ka olelo a Nabota no Iezereela i olelo aku ai ia ia; no ka mea, ua olelo oia, Aole au e haawi aku i ka hooilina o ko'u mau makua ia oe. Moe iho la oia ma kona wahi moe, haliu e aku i kona maka, aole hoi i ai i ka berena.
So Ahab came into his house, sullen and disturbed, because of the word which Naboth the Jezreelite had spoken unto him, that he should have said, I will not give thee the inheritance of my fathers. So he laid him down upon his bed, and turned away his face, and did eat no food.
5 Alaila hele ae la kana wahine o Iezebela io na la, ninau aku la hoi, No ke aha la e kaumaha nei kou uhane, i ole ai oe e ai i ka berena?
Then came unto him Jezebel his wife, —and said unto him—Why is it, that thy spirit is sullen, that thou art, not eating food?
6 Hai mai la oia, No ka mea, ua olelo aku au ia Nabota no Iezereela, i ka i ana'ku ia ia, E haawi mai oe i kou malawaina ia'u no ke kala; a, ina e makemake oe, e haawi aku au ia oe i kekahi malawaina e nona; a olelo mai la oia, Aole au e haawi i kuu malawaina ia oe.
And he said unto her—Because I spake unto Naboth, the Jezreelite, and said unto him—Come! give me thy vineyard for silver, or, if thou wouldst prefer, I will give thee a vineyard, in its stead; and he said—I will not give thee my vineyard.
7 I aku la hoi o Iezebela kana wahine ia ia, Ke hoomalu nei anei oe i ke aupuni o ka Iseraela? E ala'e a e ai i ka berena, e olioli kou naau, na'u no e haawi i ka malawaina o Nabota no Iezereela ia oe.
Then Jezebel his wife said unto him: Art, thou, still, going to carry on the kingdom over Israel? Rise! eat food, and let thy heart be merry, I, will give thee the vineyard of Naboth the Jezreelite!
8 Kakau iho la oia i na palapala ma ka inoa o Ahaba, a kau iho la i kona sila, a hoouna aku la i ua mau palapala la i na lunakahiko a me na haku na mea iloko o kona kulanakauhale, e noho ana me Nabota.
So she wrote letters, in the name of Ahab, and sealed them with his signet-ring, —and sent the letters unto the elders, and unto the nobles who were in his city, dwelling with Naboth.
9 Palapala ae la ia iloko o na palapala, i aku la, E kala aku i ka hookeai, a e hooku ia Nabota iluna imua o na kanaka;
Now she wrote in the letters, saying, —Proclaim ye a fast, and cause Naboth to sit at the head of the people;
10 A e hooku hoi i na kanaka elua, i na keiki a Beliala, imua ona, e hoike ku e ia ia, e olelo ana, Ua hoi no wale oe i ke Akua a i ke alii. Alaila lawe aku ia ia mawaho, a e hailuku ia ia i make ia.
then let two reckless men take their seats before him, that they may bear witness against him, saying, Thou hast reviled God and king! then shall ye carry him forth and stone him, that he die.
11 Hana iho la na kanaka o ke kulanakauhale, o na lunakahiko a me na haku ka poe e noho ana ma kona kulanakauhale, e like me ka Iezebela i hoouna aku ai ia lakou, a e like me ka mea i kakauia maloko o na palapala ana i hoouna aku ai ia lakou.
So the men of his city, the elders and the nobles who dwelt in his city, did just as Jezebel had sent unto them, —as it was written in the letters which she had sent unto them:
12 Kala ae la lakou i ka hookeai, a hooku ae la lakou ia Nabota iluna imua o na kanaka.
they proclaimed a fast, —and caused Naboth to sit at the head of the people.
13 A hele mai la na kanaka elua, na keiki a Beliala, a noho iho la imua ona: hoike ku e ae la ua mau kanaka la o Beliala ia ia, ia Nabota, ma ke alo o na kanaka, i ae la, Ua hoino wale o Nabota i ke Akua a i ke alii. Alaila lawe ae la lakou ia ia mawaho o ke kulanakauhale, a hailuku aku la lakou ia ia me na pohaku a make ia.
Then came in the two reckless men, and sat before him, and the men bare witness against him, even against Naboth, before the people, saying, Naboth hath reviled God and king! So they carried him forth, outside the city, and stoned him with stones, that he died.
14 Alaila hoouna mai la lakou io Iezebela la, i mai la, Ua hailukuia o Nabota, a ua make.
Then sent they unto Jezebel, saying, —Naboth is stoned and is dead.
15 Eia hoi kekahi, i ka lohe ana o Iezebela ua hailukuia o Nabota, a ua make, i aku la o Iezebela ia Ahaba, E eu e komo i ka malawaina o Nabota no Iezereela, ka mea ana i haawi ole ai ia oe no ke kala; no ka mea, aole e ola ana o Nabota, aka, ua make no.
And it came to pass, when Jezebel heard that Naboth was stoned and was dead, that Jezebel said unto Ahab—Rise! take possession of the vineyard of Naboth the Jezreelite, which he refused to give thee for silver, for Naboth is not alive, but dead!
16 Eia keia, i ka lohe ana o Ahaba, ua make o Nabota, ku ae la o Ahaba iluna e iho i ka malawaina o Nabota no Iezereela, e lawe ia nona.
And it came to pass, when Ahab heard that Naboth was dead, that Ahab arose, to go down unto the vineyard of Naboth the Jezreelite, to take possession thereof.
17 Hiki mai la ka olelo a Iehova ia Elia no Tiseba, i mai la,
Then came the word of Yahweh unto Elijah the Tishbite, saying:
18 E eu, e iho ae oe e halawai me Ahaba ke alii o ka Iseraela, o ko Samaria; aia hoi ia maloko o ka malawaina o Nabota kahi i iho ai oia e komo.
Arise! go down to meet Ahab king of Israel, who is in Samaria, —lo! he is in the vineyard of Naboth, whither he hath gone down, to take possession thereof.
19 E olelo aku hoi oe ia ia, i ka i ana aku, Ke i mai nei o Iehova, Ua pepehi ae nei anei oe, a ua lawe hoi nou? A e olelo aku oe ia ia, Ke i mai nei o Iehova penei, Ma kahi i palu ai o na ilio i ke koko o Nabota, malaila no e palu ai na ilio i kou koko, i kou ponoi no.
Then shalt thou speak unto him, saying—Thus, saith Yahweh, Hast thou committed murder, and also taken possession? Then shalt thou speak unto him, saying: Thus, saith Yahweh, In the place where the dogs have lapped up the blood of Naboth, shall the dogs lap up thy blood, even thine.
20 A olelo ae la o Ahaba ia Elia, Ua loaa anei au ia oe, e kuu enemi? I aku la o Elia, Ua loaa no ia'u, no ka mea, ua kuai lilo aku oe ia oe iho e hana ma ka hewa imua o Iehova.
Then said Ahab unto Elijah, Hast thou found me, O mine enemy? And he said: I have found [thee]! Because thou hast sold thyself to do the thing that is wicked in the eyes of Yahweh,
21 Eia hoi, e hoili au i ka poino maluna ou, a e kaili ae au i kou hope, a e hooki aku au i na kane mai Ahaba aku, a me ka mea paa a me ka mea paa ole iloko o ka Iseraela.
Behold me! [saith he] bringing in upon thee, calamity, and I will consume after thee, —and cut off of Ahab, even the meanest, whether shut up or left at large in Israel;
22 A e hoohalike au i kau ohana me ka ohana a Ieroboama ke keiki a Nebata, a e like me ka ohana a Baasa ke keiki a Ahiia, no ka hoonaukiuki ana i hoohuhu mai ai oe ia'u, a i hoolilo ai hoi i ka Iseraela e lawehala.
and will deliver up thy house—Like the house of Jeroboam son of Nebat, and like the house of Baasha son of Ahijah, —for the provocation wherewith thou hast provoked, and caused, Israel, to sin.
23 A no Iezebela kekahi i olelo mai ai o Iehova, i mai la, E ai na ilio ia Iezebela ma ka pa o Iezereela.
Moreover also, concerning Jezebel, hath Yahweh spoken, saying, —The dogs, shall eat Jezebel, in the town-land of Jezreel:
24 A o ko Ahaba mea make maloko o ke kulanakauhale, oia ka na ilio e ai ai; a o ka mea make ma kula, oia ka na manu o ka lewa e ai ai.
Him that dieth, of Ahab, in the city, shall, the dogs, eat, —and, him that dieth in the field, shall, the birds of heaven, eat.
25 Aohe mea like me Ahaba, ka mea i kuai lilo aku ia ia iho e hana ma ka hewa, ma ke alo o Iehova, ka mea a Iezebela kana wahine i hooikaika aku ai.
But indeed, there was none like Ahab, who sold himself to do the thing that was wicked in the eyes of Yahweh, —whom Jezebel his wife goaded on;
26 Hana hoi oia i ka mea e inaina nui ia i kona hahai ana mamuli o na akuakii, e like me ka Amora i hana'i a pau, ka poe a Iehova i kipaku aku ai imua o na mamo a Iseraela.
so that he did very abominably, in going after the manufactured gods, —according to all which the Amorites had done, whom Yahweh dispossessed from before the sons of Israel.
27 Eia hoi kekahi, i ka lohe ana o Ahaba i keia mau olelo, uhae ae la oia i kona kapa, a kau i ke kapa eleele i kona io, a hookeai iho. a moe iho la iloko o ke kapa eleele, a hele malie no hoi.
And it came to pass, when Ahab heard these words, that he rent his clothes, and put sackcloth upon his flesh, and fasted, —and lay in sackcloth, and went softly.
28 Hiki mai la ka olelo a Iehova ia Elia no Tiseba, i mai la,
Then came the word of Yahweh unto Elijah the Tishbite, saying:
29 Ke ike nei anei oe i ko Ahaba hoohaahaa ana ia ia iho imua o'u? No kona hoohaahaa ana ia ia iho imua o'u, aole au e lawe mai i ka poino, i kona mau la; aka, i na la o kana keiki e hoili ai au i ka poino maluna o kana ohana.
Hast thou seen that Ahab hath humbled himself, before me? Because he hath humbled himself before me, I will not bring in the calamity in his days, In the days of his son, will I bring in the calamity upon his house.
