< II Oihanaalii 21 >
1 HIAMOE iho la o Iehosapata me kona poe kupuna, a kanuia iho la me kona poe kupuna iloko o ke kulanakauhale o Davida; a nohoalii iho la o Iehorama kana keiki mahope ona.
And Jehoshaphat rested with his fathers and was buried with them in the City of David. And his son Jehoram reigned in his place.
2 O kona mau hoahanau, na keiki a Iehosapata, oia o Azaria, a me Iehiela, a me Zekaria, a me Azaria, a me Mikaela, a me Sepatia; o keia poe a pau, oia na keiki a Iehosapata ke alii o ka Iseraela.
Jehoram’s brothers, the sons of Jehoshaphat, were Azariah, Jehiel, Zechariah, Azariah, Michael, and Shephatiah; these were all sons of Jehoshaphat king of Israel.
3 A haawi aku la ko lakou makuakane na lakou i na makana he nui loa, i ke kala, a i ke gula, a i na mea nani hoi, a me na kulanakauhale paa i ka pa ma Iuda; aka, haawi oia i ke aupuni no Iehorama, no ka mea, oia ka hiapo.
Their father had given them many gifts of silver and gold and precious things, as well as the fortified cities in Judah; but he gave the kingdom to Jehoram because he was the firstborn.
4 A ku iho la o Iehorama i ke aupuni o kona makuakane, imi iho la oia i mea e paa ai, a pepehi i kona poe hoahanau a pau loa me ka pahikaua, a i kekahi poe luna o ka Iseraela no hoi.
When Jehoram had established himself over his father’s kingdom, he strengthened himself by putting to the sword all his brothers along with some of the princes of Israel.
5 He kanakolukumamalua makahiki o Iehorama i kona wa i noho alii ai, a noho alii iho ia ia i na makahiki ewalu ma Ierusalema.
Jehoram was thirty-two years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem eight years.
6 A hele ia ma ka aoao o na'lii o ka Iseraela, ma na mea a ko ka hale o Ahaba i hana'i; no ka mea, o ke kaikamahine a Ahaba oia kana wahine, a hana iho la oia ma ka hewa imua o Iehova.
And Jehoram walked in the ways of the kings of Israel, just as the house of Ahab had done. For he married a daughter of Ahab and did evil in the sight of the LORD.
7 Aka, aole i makemake o Iehova e hoopau i ko ka hale o Davida no ka berita ana i hana'i me Davida, i kana olelo ana e haawi mai nona i kukui, a no kana poe mamo i na la a pau.
Yet the LORD was unwilling to destroy the house of David, because of the covenant He had made with David, and since He had promised to maintain a lamp for David and his descendants forever.
8 I kona mau la, kipi iho la ka Edoma mai ka lima aku o ka Iuda, a hoalii iho la i alii no lakou.
In the days of Jehoram, Edom rebelled against the hand of Judah and appointed their own king.
9 Alaila hele iwaho o Iehorama me kona poe luna, a me na kaa a pau me ia; a ku ae la ia iluna i ka po, a luku i ka Edoma, i ka poe i hoopuni mai ia ia a me na luna no na kaa.
So Jehoram crossed into Edom with his officers and all his chariots. When the Edomites surrounded him and his chariot commanders, he rose up and attacked by night.
10 Aka, noho kipi no ka Edoma mai ka lima aku o ka Iuda A hiki i keia la. Ia manawa no hoi, kipi iho la o Libena mai kona lima aku; no ka mea, ua haalele oia ia Iehova i ke Akua o kona poe kupuna.
So to this day Edom has been in rebellion against the hand of Judah. Likewise, Libnah rebelled against his rule at the same time, because Jehoram had forsaken the LORD, the God of his fathers.
11 A hana no hoi ia i na wahi kiekie ma na mauna o Iuda, a hoomoekolohe i ko Ierusalema, a kaohi i ka Iuda malaila.
Jehoram had also built high places on the hills of Judah; he had caused the people of Jerusalem to prostitute themselves and had led Judah astray.
12 A hiki mai io na la kekahi palapala na Elia mai na ke kaula, i mai la, Penei i olelo mai ai o Iehova ke Akua o Davida o kou makua, I kou hele ole ana ma na aoao o Iehosapata kou makuakane, a me na aoao o Asa, ke alii o ka Iuda,
Then a letter came to Jehoram from Elijah the prophet, which stated: “This is what the LORD, the God of your father David, says: ‘You have not walked in the ways of your father Jehoshaphat or of Asa king of Judah,
13 Aka, hele oe ma ka aoao o na'liio ka Iseraela, a hoomoekolohe i ka Iuda, a me ko Ierusalema, e like me ka moe kolohe o ko ka hale o Ahaba, a ua pepehi no hoi i kou poe hoahanau, i ko ka hale o kou makuakane, ka poe i oi aku ko lakou maikai i kou;
but you have walked in the ways of the kings of Israel and have caused Judah and the people of Jerusalem to prostitute themselves, just as the house of Ahab prostituted itself. You have also killed your brothers, your father’s family, who were better than you.
14 Aia hoi, e hahau o Iehova me ka hahau nui i kou poe kanaka, a me kau poe keiki, a me kau poe wahine, a me kau mau mea a pau loa.
So behold, the LORD is about to strike your people, your sons, your wives, and all your possessions with a serious blow.
15 A e hiki mai maluna ou la eha nui loa, no ka mai ma kou opu, no kou mai e pahu aku no kou naau iwaho i kela la i keia la.
And day after day you yourself will suffer from a severe illness, a disease of your bowels, until it causes your bowels to come out.’”
16 A hoala ae la o Iehova i ka manao o ko Pilisetia e ku e ia Iehorama, a me ko Arabia, ka poe e noho kokoke ana i Aitiopa.
Then the LORD stirred against Jehoram the spirit of the Philistines and Arabs who lived near the Cushites.
17 Pii mai la lakou i Iuda a komo iloko, a lawe aku i na mea a pau i loaa ia lakou iloko o ka hale o ke alii, a i kana poe keiki, a me na wahine ana; aole i koe ia ia kekahi keiki, o Iehoaza wale no kana keiki pokii.
So they went to war against Judah, invaded it, and carried off all the possessions found in the king’s palace, along with his sons and wives; not a son was left to him except Jehoahaz, his youngest.
18 A mahope iho o keia mau mea, hahau mai la o Iehova ia ia ma kona opu i ka mai hiki ole ke hoolaia.
After all this, the LORD afflicted Jehoram with an incurable disease of the bowels.
19 A hala kekahi mau la, i ka pau ana o na makahiki elua, pahu iwaho kona naau no kona mai. Pela oia i make ai i ka mai nui loa; aole i pupuhi wale kona poe kanaka i ke ahi nona, e like me ke puhi ana no kona poe kupuna.
This continued day after day until two full years had passed. Finally, his intestines came out because of his disease, and he died in severe pain. And his people did not make a fire in his honor as they had done for his fathers.
20 Kanakolu ona mau makahiki a me kumamaiua i kona wa i noho alii ai, a noho alii iho la ia i na makahiki ewalu ma Ierusalema, a hele aku la ia me ka makemake ole ia mai: a ua kanuia oia iloko o ke kulanakauhale o Davida, aole nae iloko o na ilina o na'lii.
Jehoram was thirty-two years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem eight years. He died, to no one’s regret, and was buried in the City of David, but not in the tombs of the kings.
