II Oihanaalii 13
1 I KA makahiki umi kumamawalu o ke alii o Ieroboama, noho alii iho la o Abiia maluna o ka Iuda.
In the eighteenth year of King Jeroboam, Abijah began to reign over Judah.
2 Ekolu makahiki kona noho alii ana ma Ierusalema; a o ka inoa o kona makuwahine o Mikaia ke kaikamahine a Uriela no Gibea. A he kaua no iwaena o Abiia a me Ieroboama.
He ruled for three years in Jerusalem; his mother's name was Macaiah, the daughter of Uriel of Gibeah. There was war between Abijah and Jeroboam.
3 A hoonohonoho iho la o Abiia i ke kaua me ka poe koa, ka poe ikaika i ke kaua, eha haneri tausani kanaka i waeia: a o Ieroboama hoi, hoonohonoho oia i ke kaua me na kanaka i waeia ewalu haneri tausani, he poe koa ikaika.
Abijah went into battle with an army of strong, courageous soldiers, 400,000 chosen men. Jeroboam placed battle lines against him with 800,000 chosen men, strong, courageous soldiers.
4 Alaila, ku iluna o Abiia maluna o ka puu o Zemaraima, aia no ia ma ka mauna o Eperaima, a olelo aku la, E hoolohe mai, e Ieroboama a me ka Iseraela a pau;
Abijah stood on Mount Zemaraim, which is in the hill country of Ephraim, and said, “Listen to me, Jeroboam and all Israel!
5 Aole anei oukou i ike, ua haawi mai la o Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela i ke aupuni maluna o ka Iseraela, ia Davida, i mea mau loa ia ia, a me kana poe mamo, me ka berita paakai?
Do you not know that Yahweh, the God of Israel, gave the rule over Israel to David forever, to him and to his sons by a formal covenant?
6 Aka, ua ku iluna o Ieroboama ke keiki a Nebata, ke kauwa a Solomona ke keiki a Davida, a kipi iho la i kona haku.
Yet Jeroboam son of Nebat, the servant of Solomon son of David, rose up and rebelled against his master.
7 A ua hoakoakoaia io na la na kanaka lapuwale, ka poe hewa, a ua hooikaika ku e mai ia Rehoboama, i ke keiki a Solomona. A he keiki o Rehoboama ia wa, a palupalu kona naau, aole i hiki ia ia ke ku e ia lakou.
Worthless men, base fellows, gathered to him. They came against Rehoboam son of Solomon, when Rehoboam was young and inexperienced and could not withstand them.
8 Ano, ke manao nei oukou e hooikaika ku e mai i ke aupuni o Iehova aia ma ka lima o na keiki a Davida; o oukou ka poe koa nui loa, a me oukou pu na bipi keiki gula a Ieroboama i hana'i, i mau akua no oukou.
So now you plan to resist the kingdom of Yahweh that is held within the hand of the descendants of David, because you are a large army, and you have the golden calves that Jeroboam made to be your gods.
9 Aole anei oukou i kipaku i na kahuna a Iehova i ka poe mamo a Aarona, a me na Levi, a hoonoho iho la no oukou iho i na kahuna e like me na lahuikanaka o na aina e? a o kela mea keia mea e hiki mai me ka bipi keiki, a me na hipakane ehiku ma kona lima i mea haawi aku, ua lilo ia i kahuna no na akua lapuwale.
But did you not drive out the priests of Yahweh, the descendants of Aaron, and the Levites, and make priests of your own in the same way as the people of other lands do? Whoever comes to serve as a priest, sacrificing a young bullock and seven rams, he becomes a priest of what are not gods.
10 Aka, o makou nei, o Iehova, oia ko makou Akua, aole makou i haalele ia ia; a o na kahuna, ka poe kauwa na Iehova, o ka poe mamo lakou a Aarona, a o na Levi, e hana ana lakou i ka lakou oihana iho.
But as for us, Yahweh is our God, and we have not forsaken him. We have priests, descendants of Aaron, serving Yahweh, and the Levites, who are at their work.
11 Kukuni lakou i kela kakahiaka i keia kakahiaka, i kela ahiahi i keia ahiahi, i na mohaikuni na Iehova, a me na mea poni ala; a hoonoho lakou maluna o ka papaaina maemae i ka berena hoike, a me ka ipukukui gula e aa ana kona mau manamana i kela ahiahi keia ahiahi; no ka mea, e maluna ana makou i ka oihana na Iehova, ko makou Akua, aka, o oukou la, ua haalele ia ia.
Every morning and evening they burn for Yahweh burnt offerings and sweet incense. They also arrange the bread of the presence on the pure table; they also tend the lampstand of gold with its lamps, for them to burn every evening. We keep the commandments of Yahweh, our God, but you have forsaken him.
12 Eia hoi me makou ke Akua i luna no makou, a o kona mau kahuna no hoi me na mea kani e hoopuiwa ia oukou. E na mamo a Iseraela, mai kaua aku oukou ia Iehova i ke Akua o ko oukou poe kupuna; no ka mea, aole pono iki oukou pela.
See, God is with us at our head, and his priests are here with the trumpets to sound an alarm against you. People of Israel, do not fight against Yahweh, the God of your ancestors, for you will not succeed.”
13 A hoonoho o Ieroboama i poe moemoe e hoohalua mahope o lakou, nolaila, imua o ka Iuda kekahi poe, a ma ko lakou kua no hoi ka poe hoohalua.
But Jeroboam prepared an ambush behind them; his army was in front of Judah, and the ambush was behind them.
14 A ike ka Iuda, aia no ke kaua mamua o lakou a mahope kekahi, kahea aku lakou ia Iehova, a hookani ka poe kahuna i na pu.
When Judah looked back, behold, the fighting was both in front of them and behind them. They cried out to Yahweh, and the priests blew the trumpets.
15 Alaila, hooho ae la ka poe kanaka o Iuda; a i ka hooho ana o ka Iuda poe kanaka, i luku mai la o Iehova ia Ieroboama a me ka Iseraela a pau imua o Abiia, a me ka Iuda.
Then the men of Judah gave a shout; as they shouted, it came about that God struck Jeroboam and all Israel before Abijah and Judah.
16 A auhee aku la ka poe mamo a Iseraela imua o ka Iuda, a haawi mai ke Akua i ua poe la iloko o ko lakou lima.
The people of Israel fled before Judah, and God gave them into the hand of Judah.
17 A luku aku la o Abiia a me kona poe kanaka ia lakou me ka luku nui; a o ka poe o ka Iseraela i pepehiia a haule iho la, elima haneri tausani kanaka i waeia.
Abijah and his army killed them with great slaughter; 500,000 chosen men of Israel fell dead.
18 Pela i pio ai ka poe mamo a Iseraela ia manawa, a lanakila iho la ka Iuda, no ka mea, ua hilinai aku lakou ia Iehova i ke Akua o ko lakou poe kupuna.
In this way, the people of Israel were subdued at that time; the people of Judah won because they relied on Yahweh, the God of their ancestors.
19 Alualu aku la o Abiia mahope o Ieroboama, a lawe pio oia i na kulanakauhale mai ona aku la, ia Betela, a me na kauhale e pili ana ilaila ia Iesana a me na kauhale e pili ana ilaila; ia Eperaima no hoi a me na kauhale e pili ana ilaila.
Abijah pursued Jeroboam; he took cities from him: Bethel with its villages, Jeshanah with its villages, and Ephron with its villages.
20 Aole i loaa hou ia Ieroboama kona ikaika i na la o Abiia; a hahau mai la o Iehova ia ia, a make iho la.
Jeroboam never recovered power again during the days of Abijah; Yahweh struck him, and he died.
21 Lanakila iho la o Abiia, a lawe ae la nana i na wahine he umi a me kumamaha, a hanau mai la na keikikane he iwakalua a me kumamalua, a me na kaikamahine he umi a me kumamaono.
But Abijah became powerful; he took fourteen wives for himself and became the father of twenty-two sons and sixteen daughters.
22 A o ke koena o na hana a Abiia a me kona mau aoao, a me kana olelo, ua kakauia ma na kaao a Ido, ke kaula.
The rest of Abijah's deeds, his behavior, and words are written in the history of the prophet Iddo.
