< 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.
Now some time later, Naboth the Jezreelite had a vineyard in Jezreel, near 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 spoke to Naboth, saying, “Give me your vineyard, so I can have it as a vegetable garden, because it is near my house. In exchange, I will give you a better vineyard, or, if you prefer, I will pay you its value in money.”
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.
Naboth replied to Ahab, “May Yahweh forbid that I should give the inheritance of my ancestors to you.”
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 went into his palace resentful and angry because of the answer Naboth the Jezreelite gave him when he said, “I will not give you the inheritance of my ancestors.” He lay down on his bed, turned away his face, and refused to eat any 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?
Jezebel his wife came to him and said to him, “Why is your heart so sad, so that you eat no 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.
He replied to her, “I spoke to Naboth the Jezreelite and said to him, 'Give me your vineyard for money, or if it pleases you, I will give you another vineyard to be yours.' Then he answered me, 'I will not give you 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.
So Jezebel his wife replied to him, “Do you not still rule the kingdom of Israel? Get up and eat; let your heart be happy. I will obtain for you 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 Jezebel wrote letters in Ahab's name, sealed them with his seal, and sent them to the elders and to the wealthy who sat with him in meetings, and who lived near 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;
She wrote in the letters, saying, “Proclaim a fast and seat Naboth above 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.
Also place two dishonest men with him and let them testify against him, saying, 'You cursed God and the king.'” Then take him out and stone him to death.
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 wealthy who lived in Naboth's city, did as Jezebel had described to them, as was written in the letters that she had sent to 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 seated Naboth above 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.
The two dishonest men came in and sat before Naboth; they testified against Naboth in the presence of the people, saying, “Naboth cursed both God and the king.” Then they carried him out of the city and stoned him to death.
14 Alaila hoouna mai la lakou io Iezebela la, i mai la, Ua hailukuia o Nabota, a ua make.
Then the elders sent word to Jezebel, saying, “Naboth has been 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.
So when Jezebel heard that Naboth had been stoned and was dead, she said to Ahab, “Get up and take possession of the vineyard of Naboth the Jezreelite, which he refused to give you for money, because 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.
When Ahab heard that Naboth was dead, he rose up to go down to the vineyard of Naboth the Jezreelite and take possession of it.
17 Hiki mai la ka olelo a Iehova ia Elia no Tiseba, i mai la,
Then the word of Yahweh came to 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.
“Get up and go meet Ahab king of Israel, who lives in Samaria. He is in the vineyard of Naboth, where he has gone to take possession of it.
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.
You must speak to him and say that Yahweh says, 'Have you killed and also taken possession?' Then you will tell him that Yahweh says, 'In the place where dogs licked the blood of Naboth, the dogs will lick your blood, yes, your blood.'”
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.
Ahab said to Elijah, “Have you found me, my enemy?” Elijah answered, “I have found you, because you have sold yourself to do what is evil in the sight 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.
Yahweh says this to you: 'See, I will bring disaster on you and will completely consume and cut off from you every male child and slave and free man 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.
I will make your family like the family of Jeroboam son of Nebat, and like the family of Baasha son of Ahijah, because you have provoked me to anger and have led 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.
Yahweh has also spoken concerning Jezebel, saying, 'The dogs will eat Jezebel beside the wall 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.
Anyone who belongs to Ahab and dies in the city, the dogs will eat; and the birds of the sky will eat anyone who dies in the field.”
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.
There was no one like Ahab, who sold himself to do what was evil in the sight of Yahweh, whom Jezebel his wife incited to sin.
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.
Ahab did disgusting deeds for the idols he followed, just as all that the Amorites had done, those whom Yahweh had removed before the people 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.
When Ahab heard these words, he tore his clothes and put sackcloth on his body and fasted, and lay in sackcloth and became very sad.
28 Hiki mai la ka olelo a Iehova ia Elia no Tiseba, i mai la,
Then the word of Yahweh came to 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.
“Do you see how Ahab humbles himself before me? Because he humbles himself before me, I will not bring the coming disaster in his days; it is in his son's day that I will bring disaster on his family.”
