II Oihanaalii 15
1 HIKI mai la ka Uhane o ke Akua maluna o Azaria ke keiki a Odeda;
And Azarias the son of Oded—upon him came the Spirit of the Lord,
2 Hele aku la ia e halawai pu me Asa, i aku la ia ia, E hoolohe mai ia'u, e Asa, a me ka Iuda a pau, a me ka Beniamina; o Iehova pu kekahi me oukou i ko oukou noho pu ana me ia; ina e imi oukou ia ia, e loaa no oia ia oukou; aka, ina e haalele oukou ia ia, e haalele kela ia oukou.
and he went out to meet Asa, and all Juda and Benjamin, and said, Hear me, Asa, and all Juda and Benjamin. The Lord [is] with you, while ye are with him; and if ye seek him out, he will be found of you; but if ye forsake him, he will forsake you.
3 I na la he nui loa, aole ia Iseraela ke Akua oiaio, aohe kahuna ao, aole ke kanawai.
And Israel [has been] a long time without the true God, and without a priest to expound [the truth], and without the law.
4 Aka, i ko lakou wa pilikia, a huli lakou ia Iehova i ke Akua o ka Iseraela, a imi aku ia ia, ua loaa no oia ia lakou.
But he shall turn them to the Lord God of Israel, and he will be found of them.
5 I keia mau la, aole maluhia o ka mea i puka iwaho, a me ka mea i komo iloko, no ka mea, nui ka haunaele ma ko na aina a pau loa.
And in that time there is no peace to one going out, or to one coming in, for the terror of the Lord is upon all that inhabit the lands.
6 Ua lukuia kekahi lahuikanaka, e kekahi lahuikanaka, a me kekahi kulanakauhale e kekahi kulanakauhale; no ka mea, ua hooweliweli mai ke Akua ia lakou me na mea ino a pau.
And nation shall fight against nation, and city against city; for God has confounded them with every [kind of] affliction.
7 E hookanaka oukou, aole e hoonawaliwali ko oukou mau lima; no ka mea, e ukuia ka oukou hana ana.
But be ye strong, and let not your hands be weakened: for there is a reward for your work.
8 A lohe ae la o Asa i keia mau olelo a me ka wanana a Odeda ke kaula, hooikaika iho la oia ia ia iho, a kipaku aku la i na kii lapuwale mai ka aina aku a pau o Iuda, a me Beniamina a me na kulanakauhale ana i lawe pio ai ma ka mauna o Eperaima: a hana hou oia i ke kuahu o Iehova, aia no imua o ka lanai o Iehova.
And when [Asa] heard these words, and the prophesy of Adad the prophet, then he strengthened himself, and cast out the abominations from all the land of Juda and Benjamin, and from the cities which Jeroboam possessed, in mount Ephraim, and he renewed the altar of the Lord, which was before the temple of the Lord.
9 A hoakoakoa oia i ka Iuda a pau, a me ka Beniamina, a me ka poe malihini e noho pu ana me lakou mai loko mai o Eperaima a me Manase, a mai loko mai o Simeona; no ka mea, he nui loa ka poe no ka Iseraela i lilo mai ia ia, i ko lakou ike ana, aia no o Iehova kekahi pu me ia.
And he assembled Juda and Benjamin, and the strangers that dwelt with him, of Ephraim, and of Manasse, and of Symeon: for many of Israel were joined to him, when they saw that the Lord his God was with him.
10 A ua hoakoakoaia lakou ma Ierusalema, i ka malama ekolu o ka makahiki umikumamalima o ke aupuni o Asa.
And they assembled at Jerusalem in the third month, in the fifteenth year of the reign of Asa.
11 A mohai aku la lakou ia Iehova ia la i kekahi o ka waiwai pio a lakou i lawe ai, ehiku haneri bipi, a me na hipa ehiku tausani.
And he sacrificed to the Lord in that day of the spoils which they brought, seven hundred calves and seven thousand sheep.
12 Hana iho la lakou i ka berita e imi ia Iehova i ke Akua o ko lakou poe kupuna me ko lakou naau a pau a me ko lakou uhane a pau;
And he entered into a covenant that they should seek the Lord God of their fathers with all their heart and with all their soul.
13 A o kela mea keia mea i imi ole aku ia Iehova i ke Akua o ka Iseraela, e make no ia, ka mea uuku a me ka mea nui, o ke kane a me ka wahine.
And that whoever should not seek the Lord God of Israel, should die, whether young or old, whether man or woman.
14 A hoohiki lakou ia Iehova me ka leo nui, a me ka uwa ana, a me na pu a me na mea hokiokio.
And they swore to the Lord with a loud voice, and with trumpets, and with cornets.
15 A olioli o ka Iuda a pau no ka hoohiki ana; no ka mea, hoohiki lakou me ko lakou naau a pau, a ua imi lakou ia ia, me ko lakou makemake a pau a ua loaa no oia ia lakou. A hoomalu o Iehova ia lakou a puni.
And all Juda rejoiced concerning the oath: for they swore with all their heart, and they sought him with all their desires; and he was found of them: and the Lord gave them rest round about.
16 A o Maaka ka makuwahine o Asa ke alii, kipaku aku la oia ia ia mai kona nohoalii ana'ku, no ka mea, ua hana oia i kii no Asetarota, wawahi iho la o Asa i kana kii, a hehi oia ia mea, a puhi i ke ahi ma ke kahawai o Kederona.
And he removed Maacha his mother from being priestess to Astarte; and he cut down the idol, and burnt it in the brook of Kedron.
17 Aole hoi i laweia'ku na wahi kiekie mai Iseraela aku; aka, o ka naau o Asa, ua pololei no ia i kona mau la a pau loa.
Nevertheless they removed not the high places: they still existed in Israel: nevertheless the heart of Asa was perfect all his days.
18 A ua hookomo oia iloko o ka hale o ke Akua i na mea a kona makuakane i hoolaa ai, a me kana mau mea laa no hoi, i ke kala a me ke gula a me na ipu.
And he brought in the holy things of David his father, and the holy things of the house of God, silver, and gold, and vessels.
19 Aole kana hou a hiki i ka makahiki kanakolukumamalima o ke aupuni o Asa.
And there was no war [waged] with him until the thirty-fifth year of the reign of Asa.
