II Oihanaalii 16
1 I KA makahiki kanakolukumamaono o ke aupuni o Asa, pii mai la o Baasa ke alii o ka Iseraela, e ku e i ka Iuda, a kukulu iho la oia ia Rama, me ka manao, aole e puka iwaho kekahi, aole e komo iloko kekahi io Asa la ke alii o ka Iuda.
And in the six and thirtieth year of his kingdom, Baasa the king of Israel came up against Juda, and built a wall about Rama, that no one might safely go out or come in of the kingdom of Asa.
2 Alaila lawe ae la o Asa i ke kala a me ke gula mai loko mai o ka waihona waiwai o ka hale o Iehova, a me ka hale o ke alii, a hoouna aku la oia io Bene-hadada la, i ke alii o Suria, i kona noho ana ma Damaseko, i aku la,
Then Asa brought out silver and gold out of the treasures of the house of the Lord, and of the king’s treasures, and sent to Benadad king of Syria, who dwelt in Damascus, saying:
3 He berita no mawaena o'u a me oe, a mawaena o ko'u makua, a me kou makua; eia hoi, ke hoouka aku nei au ia oe i ke kala a me ke gula, e hooki oe i kau berita me Baasa ke alii o ka Iseraela, i hele ia mai o'u aku nei.
There is a league between me and thee, as there was between my father and thy father, wherefore I have sent thee silver and gold, that thou mayst break thy league with Baasa king of Israel, and make him depart from me.
4 A hoolohe o Bene-hadada i ka Asa, ka ke alii, a hoouna mai la oia i na luna o na koa ona e ku e i na kulanakauhalo o ka Iseraela; a Iuku iho la lakou ia Iiona, a me Dana, a me Abelamaima, a me na kulanakauhale waiho ukana a pau o Napetali.
And then Benadad heard this, he sent the captains of his armies against the cities of Israel: and they took Ahion, and Dan, and Abelmaim, and all the walled cities of Nephtali.
5 A lohe iho la o Baasa, haalele ia i kona kukulu ana ia Rama, a hooki iho la ia i kana hana.
And when Baasa heard of it, he left off the building of Rama, and interrupted his work.
6 Alakai ae la o Asa i ka Inda a pau, halihali mai la lakou i na pohaku o Rama, a me na laau olaila, i ka mea a Baasa i kukulu ai; a kukulu iho la oia me ia mau mea ia Geba a me Mizepa.
Then king Asa took all Juda, and they carried away from Rama the stones, and the timber that Baasa had prepared for the building: and he built with them Gabaa, and Maspha.
7 Ia manawa, hele mai la o Hanani ke kaula io Asa la, i ke alii o ka Iuda, olelo mai la ia ia, No kou hilinai ana i ke alii o Suria, aole hoi i hilinai ia Iehova i kou Akua, no ia mea, e pakele ka poe koa o ke alii o Suria mai kou lima aku.
At that time Hanani the prophet came to Asa king of Juda, and said to him: Because thou hast had confidence in the king of Syria, and not in the Lord thy God, therefore hath the army of the king of Syria escaped out of thy hand.
8 O ko Aitiopa a me ka Luba, aole anei he nui loa lakou me na hale kaa, a me na holohololio he lehulehu? Aka, i kou hilinai ana ia Iehova, haawi mai oia ia lakou iloko o kou lima.
Were not the Ethiopians, and the Libyans much more numerous in chariots, and horsemen, and an exceeding great multitude: yet because thou trustedst in the Lord, he delivered them into thy hand?
9 No ka mea, e holoholo ana na maka o Iehova ma ka honua a pau e hoike ana i kona mau a i ka poe i pono ia ia ko lakou naau: ua hana naaupo oe i keia mea; a ma keia hope aku e kauaia ana oe.
For the eyes of the Lord behold all the earth, and give strength to those who with a perfect heart trust in him. Wherefore thou hast done foolishly, and for this cause from this time wars shall arise against thee.
10 Alaila, huhu o Asa i ke kaula, a hoolei oia ia ia iloko o ka hale paahao; no ka mea, ua wela kona huhu ia ia no keia mea: a ia manawa hoi hookaumaha o Asa i kekahi poe kanaka.
And Asa was angry with the seer, and commanded him to be put in prison: for he was greatly enraged because of this thing: and he put to death many of the people at that time.
11 Aia hoi, o na mea a Asa i hana'i, ka mua, a me ka hope, ua kakauia ia mau mea iloko o ka palapala o na'lii o ka luda a me ka Iseraela.
But the works of Asa the first and last are written in the book of the kings of Juda and Israel.
12 A i ka makahiki kanakolukumamaiwa o kona aupuni, loaa iho la ia Asa ka mai ma kona mau wawae, a pii iluna kona mai; a i kona wa mai, aole ia i imi ia Iehova, aka, i ka poe kahuna lapaau.
And Asa fell sick in the nine and thirtieth year of his reign, of a most violent pain in his feet, and yet in his illness he did not seek the Lord, but rather trusted in the skill of physicians.
13 A hiamoe iho la o Asa me kona poe kupuna, a make ia i ka makahiki kanahakumamakahi o kona noho alii ana.
And he slept with his fathers: and he died in the one and fortieth year of his reign.
14 A kanu lakou ia ia iloko o kona lua kahi ana i eli ai nona iho, ma ke kulanakauhale o Davida, a waiho lakou ia ia iloko o kona wahi moe, kahi i piha ai i na mea ala, a me na mea miko i hoomakaukauia ma ke akamai o na kahuna lapaau, a pupuhi aku lakou i ke ahi nona a nui loa.
And they buried him in his own sepulchre, which he had made for himself in the city of David: and they laid him on his bed full of spices and odoriferous ointments, which were made by the art of the perfumers, and they burnt them over him with very great pomp.
