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 was ruling in Jerusalem for twenty-nine years; his mother's name was Jehoaddan of Jerusalem.

2 Hana iho la ia i ka mea maikai i na maka o Iehova, aole nae me ka naau maikai.

He did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, but his heart was not completely true to the Lord.

3 A paa ia ma kona aupuni, pepehi iho la ia i kana poe kauwa nana i pepehi i kona makuakane, i ke alii.

Now when he became strong in the kingdom, he put to death those men who had taken the life of the king his father.

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.

But he did not put their children to death, for he kept the orders of the Lord recorded in the book of the law of Moses, saying, The fathers are not to be put to death for their children or the children for their fathers, but a man is to be put to death for the sin which he himself has done.

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 got all Judah together and put them in order by their families, even all Judah and Benjamin, under captains of thousands and captains of hundreds: and he had those of twenty years old and over numbered, and they came to three hundred thousand of the best fighting-men, trained for war and in the use of the spear and the body-cover.

6 A hoolimalima no hoi oia noloko mai o ka Iseraela i hookahi haneri tausani koa ikaika no na talena kala hookahi haneri.

And for a hundred talents of silver, he got a hundred thousand fighting-men from Israel.

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, saying, O king, let not the army of Israel go with you; for the Lord is not with Israel, that is, the children of Ephraim.

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.

But go yourself, and be strong in war; God will not let you go down before those who are fighting against you; for God has power to give help or to send you down before your attackers.

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.

Then Amaziah said to the man of God, But what is to be done about the hundred talents which I have given for the armed band of Israel? And the man of God in answer said, God 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, separating the armed band which had come to him from Ephraim, sent them back again; which made them very angry with Judah, and they went back burning with wrath.

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.

Then Amaziah took heart, and went out at the head of his people and came to the Valley of Salt, where he put to death ten thousand of the children 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 ten thousand more the children of Israel took living, and made them go up to the top of the rock, pushing them down from the top of the rock so that their bodies were broken by the fall.

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.

But the men of the band which Amaziah sent back and did not take with him to the fight, made attacks on the towns of Judah from Samaria to Beth-horon, putting to death three thousand of their people and taking away a great store of their goods.

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.

Now when Amaziah came back from the destruction of the Edomites, he took the gods of the children of Seir and made them his gods, worshipping them and burning offerings before 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.

And so the wrath of the Lord was moved against Amaziah, and he sent a prophet to him, who said, Why have you gone after the gods of the people who have not given their people salvation from your hands?

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.

But while he was talking to him the king said to him, Have we made you one of the king's government? say no more, or it will be the cause of your death. Then the prophet gave up protesting, and said, It is clear to me that God's purpose is your destruction, because you have done this and have not given ear to my words.

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, acting on the suggestion of his servants, sent to Joash, the son of Jehoahaz, the son of Jehu, king of Israel, saying, Come, let us have a meeting face to face.

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.

And Joash, king of Israel, sent to Amaziah, king of Judah, saying, The thorn-tree in Lebanon sent to the cedar in Lebanon, saying, Give your daughter to my son for a wife: and a beast from the woodland in Lebanon went by, crushing the thorn under his feet.

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 say, See, I have overcome Edom; and your heart is lifted up with pride: now keep in your country; why do you make causes of trouble, putting yourself, and Judah with you, in danger of downfall?

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 gave no attention; and this was the purpose of God, so that he might give them up into the hands of Joash, because they had gone after 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.

And so Joash, king of Israel, went up; and he and Amaziah, king of Judah, came face to face 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 overcome before Israel, and they went in flight, every man to his tent.

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.

And Joash, king of Israel, made Amaziah, king of Judah, the son of Joash, the son of Jehoahaz, prisoner at Beth-shemesh, and took him to Jerusalem; and he had the wall of Jerusalem pulled down from the doorway of Ephraim to the doorway in the angle, 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.

And he took all the gold and silver and all the vessels which were in the house of the Lord, under the care of Obed-edom, and all the wealth from the king's house, as well as those whose lives would be the price of broken faith, and went back 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, went on living for fifteen years after the death of Joash, the 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?

Now the rest of the acts of Amaziah, first and last, are they not recorded 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.

Now from the time when Amaziah gave up worshipping the Lord, they made secret designs against him in Jerusalem; and he went in flight to Lachish: but they sent to Lachish after him and put him to death 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.

And they took his body on horseback and put it into the earth with his fathers in the town of David.
