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.
It happened, when the kingdom of Rehoboam was established, and he was strong, that he forsook the law of YHWH, 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,
It happened in the fifth year of king Rehoboam, that Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem, because they had trespassed against YHWH,
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 sixty thousand horsemen. The people were without number who came with him out of Egypt: the Lubim, the Sukkiim, and the Ethiopians.
4 Hoopio aku la oia i na kulanakauhale i paa i ka pa ma Iuda, a hiki mai la i Ierusalema.
He took the fortified 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.
And Shemaiah the prophet came to Rehoboam, and to the leaders of Judah, who were gathered together to Jerusalem because of Shishak, and said to them, "Thus says YHWH, 'You have forsaken me, 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.
Then the leaders of Israel and the king humbled themselves; and they said, "YHWH 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.
When YHWH saw that they humbled themselves, the word of YHWH came to Shemaiah, saying, "They have humbled themselves. I will not destroy them; but I will grant them some deliverance, and my wrath shall not be poured out on 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 YHWH, and the treasures of the king's house. He took it all away. He also took away 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.
King Rehoboam made in their place shields of bronze, and committed them to the hands of the captains of the guard, who kept the door 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.
It was so, that as often as the king entered into the house of YHWH, the guard came and bore them, and brought them back into the guard room.
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.
When he humbled himself, the wrath of YHWH turned from him, so as not to destroy him altogether: and moreover in Judah there were good things found.
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 forty-one years old when he began to reign, and he reigned seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city which YHWH had chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, to put his name there: and his mother's name was Naamah the Ammonitess.
14 A hana oia i ka hewa, no ka mea, aole ia i hoomakaukau i kona naau e imi ia Iehova.
He did that which was evil, because he did not set his heart to seek YHWH.
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, aren't they written in the histories of Shemaiah the prophet and of Iddo the seer, after the way of genealogies? 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 with his fathers, and he was buried in the City of David. And Abijah his son reigned in his place.
