II Oihanaalii 12
1 A PAA ke aupuni o Rehoboama, a ikaika hoi ia, alaila haalele oia i ke kanawai o Iehova, a me ia pu ka Iseraela a pau.
And it came to pass, when Rehoboam had established the kingdom, and had strengthened himself, he forsook the law of the LORD, and all Israel with him.
2 A i ka lima o ka makahiki o ke alii o Rehoboama, pii mai la o Sisaka, ke alii o Aigupita i Ierusalema, no ka mea, ua lawehala lakou ia Iehova,
And it came to pass, [that] in the fifth year of king Rehoboam Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem, because they had transgressed against the LORD,
3 Me na kaa kaua he umikumamalua tausani, a me na hoohololio kanaono tausani, a me na kanaka i pau ole i ka heluia ka poe i hele pu me ia mai Aigupita mai; ka Luba, a me ka Suka, a me ka Kusa.
With twelve hundred chariots, and threescore thousand horsemen: and the people [were] without number that came with him out of Egypt; the Lubims, the Sukkiims, and the Ethiopians.
4 Hoopio aku la oia i na kulanakauhale i paa i ka pa ma Iuda, a hiki mai la i Ierusalema.
And he took the fenced cities which [pertained] to Judah, and came to Jerusalem.
5 Alaila, hele mai o Semaia, ke kaula, io Rehoboama la, a i na 'lii o Iuda i hoakoakoaia ma Ierusalema mai mua mai o Sisaka, i aku la ia lakou, Penei i olelo mai ai o Iehova ia oukou, Ua haalele oukou ia'u, no ia mea, ua haalele aku au ia oukou iloko o ka lima o Sisaka.
Then came Shemaiah the prophet to Rehoboam, and [to] the princes of Judah, that were gathered together to Jerusalem because of Shishak, and said unto them, Thus saith the LORD, Ye have forsaken me, and therefore have I also left you in the hand of Shishak.
6 Hoohaahaa iho la na kaukaualii o ka Iseraela a me ka Moi ia lakou iho, i iho la, Ua pololei o Iehova.
Whereupon the princes of Israel and the king humbled themselves; and they said, The LORD [is] righteous.
7 A ike o Iehova, ua hoohaahaa lakou ia lakou iho, hiki mai la ka olelo a Iehova ia Semaia, i mai la, Ua hoohaahaa lakou ia lakou iho; aole au e luku loa ia lakou, e haawi no au ia lakou i wahi maha iki, aole au e ninini i ko'u huhu maluna o Ierusalema ma ka lima o Sisaka.
And when the LORD saw that they humbled themselves, the word of the LORD came to Shemaiah, saying, They have humbled themselves; [therefore] I will not destroy them, but I will grant them some deliverance; and my wrath shall not be poured out upon Jerusalem by the hand of Shishak.
8 Aka, e lilo lakou i poe kauwa nana, i ike lakou i ka hookauwa ana na'u, a me ka hookauwa ana na na aupuni o na aina.
Nevertheless they shall be his servants; that they may know my service, and the service of the kingdoms of the countries.
9 Alaila pii mai la Sisaka ke alii o Aigupita i Ierusalema, a hao iho la i ka waiwai o ka hale o Iehova, a me ka waiwai o ka hale o ke alii, hao iho la oia i na mea a pau; a lawe no hoi i na palekaua gula a Solomona i hana'i.
So Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem, and took away the treasures of the house of the LORD, and the treasures of the king’s house; he took all: he carried away also the shields of gold which Solomon had made.
10 A hana ke alii o Rehoboama i mea e pani ai ko laila hakahaka, i na palekaua keleawe, a haawi ia mau mea iloko o ka lima o na luna o ka poe kiai, ka poe i malama i na puka o ka hale o ke alii.
Instead of which king Rehoboam made shields of brass, and committed [them] to the hands of the chief of the guard, that kept the entrance of the king’s house.
11 A i na wa a pau a ke alii i komo ai iloko o ka hale o Iehova, komo no ka poe kiai, a lawe mai ia mau mea, a hoihoi aku no hoi ia mau mea iloko o ke keena o ka poe kiai.
And when the king entered into the house of the LORD, the guard came and fetched them, and brought them again into the guard chamber.
12 A i kona hoohaahaa ana ia ia iho, huli ae la ka huhu o Iehova mai ona aku la, aole i pepehi ia ia a make: a ma ka aina o Iuda, ua maikai no na mea malaila.
And when he humbled himself, the wrath of the LORD turned from him, that he would not destroy [him] altogether: and also in Judah things went well.
13 A hookupaaia ke alii ma Ierusalema, a noho alii iho la, no ka mea, he kanahakumamakahi na makahiki o Rehoboama i kona wa i hooalii'i, a noho alii ia i na makahiki he umikumamahiku, ma Ierusalema, ke kulanakauhale a Iehova i wae ai maloko o na ohana a pau o ka Iseraela, e kau mai i kona inoa malaila. A o ka inoa o kona makuwahine, o Naama no ka Amona.
So king Rehoboam strengthened himself in Jerusalem, and reigned: for Rehoboam [was] one and forty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city which the LORD had chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, to put his name there. And his mother’s name [was] Naamah an Ammonitess.
14 A hana oia i ka hewa, no ka mea, aole ia i hoomakaukau i kona naau e imi ia Iehova.
And he did evil, because he prepared not his heart to seek the LORD.
15 A o na mea mua a me na mea hope a Rehoboama i hana'i, aole anei i kakauia ia mau mea ma ka palapala a Semaia ke kaula, a me Ido ka mea wanana ma ka palapala kuauhau? A he kaua ia Rehoboama, a me Ieroboama i ko laua mau la a pau loa.
Now the acts of Rehoboam, first and last, [are] they not written in the book of Shemaiah the prophet, and of Iddo the seer concerning genealogies? And [there were] wars between Rehoboam and Jeroboam continually.
16 A hiamoe iho la o Rehoboama me kona mau kupuna; a ua kanuia oia ma ke kulanakauhale o Davida. A noho alii iho la o Abiia kana keiki mahope ona.
And Rehoboam slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David: and Abijah his son reigned in his stead.
