II Oihanaalii 25
1 O AMAZIA, he iwakaluakumamalima makahiki ona i kona wa i alii ai, a noho alii iho la ia i na makahiki he iwakaluakumamaiwa ma Ierusalema; a o ka inoa o kona makuwahine o Iehoadama no Ierusalema.
Amaziah was twenty-five years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem twenty-nine years. His mother’s name was Jehoaddan; she was from Jerusalem.
2 Hana iho la ia i ka mea maikai i na maka o Iehova, aole nae me ka naau maikai.
And he did what was right in the eyes of the LORD, but not wholeheartedly.
3 A paa ia ma kona aupuni, pepehi iho la ia i kana poe kauwa nana i pepehi i kona makuakane, i ke alii.
As soon as the kingdom was firmly in his grasp, Amaziah executed the servants who had murdered his father the king.
4 Aole oia i pepehi i ka lakou poe keiki, aka, hana oia e like me ka mea i kakauia iloko o ke kanawai, ma ka buke a Mose, kahi a Iehova i kauoha mai ai, i mai la, Aole e make na makua no na keiki, aole hoi e make na keiki no na makua, aka, e make no kela kanaka keia kanaka no kona hewa iho.
Yet he did not put their sons to death, but acted according to what is written in the Law, in the Book of Moses, where the LORD commanded: “Fathers must not be put to death for their children, and children must not be put to death for their fathers; each is to die for his own sin.”
5 A hoakoakoa Amazia i ka Iuda, a hoonoho ia lakou ma ko ka hale o na makua, i poe luna no na tausani, a i poe luna no ua haneri, no ka Iuda a pau a me ka Beniamina: a helu oia ia lakou mai ka makahiki iwakalua aku, a loaa ia ia ekolu haneri tausani kanaka i waeia, ka poe hiki ke hele i ke kaua, ka poe i makaukau i ka ihe a me ka palekaua.
Then Amaziah gathered the people of Judah and assigned them according to their families to commanders of thousands and of hundreds. And he numbered those twenty years of age or older throughout Judah and Benjamin and found 300,000 chosen men able to serve in the army, bearing the spear and shield.
6 A hoolimalima no hoi oia noloko mai o ka Iseraela i hookahi haneri tausani koa ikaika no na talena kala hookahi haneri.
He also hired 100,000 mighty warriors from Israel for a hundred talents of silver.
7 A hele mai io na la ke kanaka o ke Akua, i mai la, E ke alii, aole pono e hele pu me oe ka poe koa o ka Iseraela; no ka mea, aole o Iehova pu me ka Iseraela, me na mamo a pau a Eperaima.
But a man of God came to him and said, “O king, do not let the army of Israel go with you, for the LORD is not with Israel—not with any of the Ephraimites.
8 Aka, ina e hele no oe, e hana no pela, e ikaika hoi i ke kaua; aka, e oupe mai ke Akua ia oe imua o ka enemi; no ka mea, aia i ke Akua ka mana e kokua mai ai, a e hoohina mai ai no hoi.
Even if you go and fight bravely in battle, God will make you stumble before the enemy, for God has power to help and power to overthrow.”
9 Olelo aku la o Amazia i ke kanaka o ke Akua, Heaha ka makou e hana'i no kela mau talena hookahi haneri a'u i haawi aku ai na ka poe koa o ka Iseraela? I mai la ke kanaka o ke Akua, E hiki no ia Iehova ke haawi mai ia oe a nui e aku i keia.
Amaziah asked the man of God, “What should I do about the hundred talents I have given to the army of Israel?” And the man of God replied, “The LORD is able to give you much more than this.”
10 Alaila, hookaawale ae la o Amazia i ka poe koa i hele mai io na la, mailoko mai o Eperaima e hele i ko lakou wahi; a ua nui loa mai la ko lakou huhu i ka Iuda, a hoi lakou i ko lakou wahi me ka huhu wela.
So Amaziah dismissed the troops who had come to him from Ephraim and sent them home. And they were furious with Judah and returned home in great anger.
11 A hooikaika iho la o Amazia, a alakai i kona poe kanaka, a hele aku la i ke awawa paakai, a luku iho la i ko Seira he ami tausani.
Amaziah, however, summoned his strength and led his troops to the Valley of Salt, where he struck down 10,000 men of Seir,
12 A lawe pio na mamo a Iuda i na kanaka he umi tausani e ola ana, a laweia lakou ma kahi pali, a hoolei aku ia lakou ilalo mai luna aku o ka pali, a pau lakou i ka weluwelu.
and the army of Judah also captured 10,000 men alive. They took them to the top of a cliff and threw them down so that all were dashed to pieces.
13 A o ka poe koa a Amazia i hoihoi aku ai, i hele ole lakou me ia i ke kaua, hana ino lakou ma na kulanakauhale o Iuda mai Samaria a hiki i Betehorona, a luku iho la lakou i ekolu tausani kanaka, a lawe aku i ka waiwai pio he nui loa.
Meanwhile the troops that Amaziah had dismissed from battle raided the cities of Judah, from Samaria to Beth-horon. They struck down 3,000 people and carried off a great deal of plunder.
14 A hoi mai o Amazia mai ka luku ana i ka Edoma, hali mai oia i na akua o ko Seira, a kukulu ae la ia mau mea iluna i akua nona, a kulou ia imua o lakou, a kuni i ka mea ala ia lakou.
When Amaziah returned from the slaughter of the Edomites, he brought back the gods of the Seirites, set them up as his own gods, bowed before them, and burned sacrifices to them.
15 A ua hoaa mai la ka huhu o Iehova ia Amazia, a hoouna mai oia io na la i ke kaula, e olelo mai ia ia, No ke aha la oe i imi ai i na akua o na kanaka, na mea i hiki ole ke hoopakele i ko lakou poe kanaka, mai kou lima aku.
Therefore the anger of the LORD burned against Amaziah, and He sent him a prophet, who said, “Why have you sought this people’s gods, which could not deliver them from your hand?”
16 A i kana olelo ana i ke alii, i mai kela ia ia, Ua hooliloia anei oe i kakaolelo no ke alii? Ua oki; no ke aha la oe e pepehiia iho ai? Alaila, hooki iho la ua kaula la me ka olelo ana mai, Ua ike au, ua paa ko ke Akua manao e pepehi mai ia oe, no ka mea, ua hana oe i keia, aole i hoolohe mai oe i ka'u olelo.
While he was still speaking, the king asked, “Have we made you the counselor to the king? Stop! Why be struck down?” So the prophet stopped, but he said, “I know that God has determined to destroy you, because you have done this and have not heeded my advice.”
17 A kukakuka iho la o Amazia ke alii o Iuda, a hoouna aku oia io Ioasa la ke keiki a Iehoahaza, ke keiki a Iehu, ke alii o ka Iseraela, i aku la, Ina kaua, e nana kaua he inaka no he maka.
Then Amaziah king of Judah took counsel and sent word to the king of Israel Jehoash son of Jehoahaz, the son of Jehu. “Come, let us meet face to face,” he said.
18 Hoouna mai la o Ioasa ke alii o ka Iseraela io Amazia la, ke alii o ka Iuda, i mai la, Hoouna ke kakalaioa ma Lebanona i ka laau kedera ma Lebanona, i aku la, E haawi mai oe i kau kaikamahine na ka'u keiki i wahine nana; a hele ae la kekahi holoholona o ke kula ma Lebanona, a hehi iho la maluna o ke kakalaioa.
But Jehoash king of Israel replied to Amaziah king of Judah: “A thistle in Lebanon sent a message to a cedar in Lebanon, saying, ‘Give your daughter to my son in marriage.’ Then a wild beast in Lebanon came along and trampled the thistle.
19 Olelo mai oe, Aia hoi ua luku au i ka Edoma, a ua kiekie kou naau me ke kaena ana. E noho malie oe ma ka hale; no ke aha la oe e hakaka mai ai, i pono ole ai oe, a haule oe, o oe, a me ka Iuda a pau pu me oe?
You have said, ‘Look, I have defeated Edom,’ and your heart has become proud and boastful. Now stay at home. Why should you stir up trouble so that you fall—you and Judah with you?”
20 Aole i hoolohe o Amazia; no ka mea, na ke Akua mai ia, i haawi uia ia lakou iloko o ka lima o ka lakou poe enemi, no ka mea, ua imi lakou i na akua o ka Edoma.
But Amaziah would not listen, for this had come from God in order to deliver them into the hand of Jehoash, because they had sought the gods of Edom.
21 Pela i pii aku ai o Ioasa ke alii o ka Iseraela, a nana laua he maka no he maka, oia a me Amazia ke alii o ka Iuda ma Betesemesa, aia uo ma Iuda.
So Jehoash king of Israel advanced, and he and Amaziah king of Judah faced each other at Beth-shemesh in Judah.
22 A ua lukuia ka Iuda imua o ka Iseraela, a auhee aku la kela kanaka, keia kanaka i kona halelewa.
And Judah was routed before Israel, and every man fled to his own home.
23 A lawe pio o Ioasa ke alii o ka Iseraela ia Amazia ke alii o ka Iuda, ke keiki a Ioasa, ke keiki a Iehoahaza ma Betesemesa, a lawe ia ia i Ierusalema; a wawahi ia i ka pa o Ierusalema mai ka puka o Eperaima a i ka puka o ke kihi, eha haneri kubita.
There at Beth-shemesh, Jehoash king of Israel captured Amaziah king of Judah, the son of Joash, the son of Jehoahaz. Then Jehoash brought him to Jerusalem and broke down the wall of Jerusalem from the Ephraim Gate to the Corner Gate—a section of four hundred cubits.
24 A lawe aku ia i ke gula a pau, a me ke kala, a me na kiaha a pau i loaa ia ia iloko o ka hale o ke Akua me Obededoma, a me ka waiwai o ka hale o ke alii, a me na mea e paa ana me he poe panai la, a hoi aku la i Samaria.
He took all the gold and silver and all the articles found in the house of God with Obed-edom and in the treasuries of the royal palace, as well as some hostages. Then he returned to Samaria.
25 A ola o Amazia ke keiki a Ioasa, ke alii o ka Iuda, mahope o ka make ana o Ioasa, ke keiki a Iehoahaza ke alii o ka Iseraela, he umi a me kumamalima makahiki.
Amaziah son of Joash king of Judah lived for fifteen years after the death of Jehoash son of Jehoahaz king of Israel.
26 A o ke koena o na hana a Amazia, ka mua a me ka hope, aole anei i kakauia'i ia mau mea ma ka buke no na'lii o ka Iuda, a me ka Iseraela?
As for the rest of the acts of Amaziah, from beginning to end, are they not written in the Book of the Kings of Judah and Israel?
27 A mai ka wa mai o ko Amazia huli ana ae mai Iehova aku, ohumu ku e ka poe ma Ierusalema ia ia, a mahuka aku la ia i Lakisa; a hoouna lakou i Lakisa, a pepehi lakou ia ia malaila.
From the time that Amaziah turned from following the LORD, a conspiracy was formed against him in Jerusalem, and he fled to Lachish. But men were sent after him to Lachish, and they killed him there.
28 A hali mai lakou ia ia maluna o na lio, a kanu lakou ia ia me kona poe kupuna ma ke kulanakauhale o Iuda.
They carried him back on horses and buried him with his fathers in the City of Judah.
