II Oihanaalii 28

1 HE iwakalua makahiki ko Ahaza i kona wa i alii ai, a noho alii iho la ia ma Ierusalema, he umikumamaono makahiki; aole i hana pololei oia imua o Iehova e like me Davida kona kupuna.

Achaz was five and twenty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem: and he did not that which was right in the sight of the Lord, as David his father.

2 Aka, hele ia ma na aoao o na'lii o ka Iseraela, a hana iho la ia i na kii i hooheheeia no Baala.

But he walked in the ways of the kings of Israel, for he made graven images.

3 Ua kuni no hoi ia i ka mea ala ma ke awawa o ke keiki a Hinoma, a puhi i kana mau keiki i ke ahi, e like me ka aoao hoopailua o na lahuikanaka e, ka poe a Iehova i kipaku aku ai imua o ke alo o ka poe mamo a Iseraela.

And [he sacrificed] to their idols in the valley of Benennom, and passed his children through the fire, according to the abominations of the heathen, whom the Lord cast out from before the children of Israel.

4 Ua mohai aku hoi ia, a kuni i ka mea ala ma na wahi kiekie maluna o na puu, a malalo iho o na laau uliuli a pau.

And he burnt incense upon the high places, and upon the roofs, and under every shady tree.

5 No ia mea, haawi o Iehova kona Akua ia ia iloko o ka lima o ke alii o Suria; a ua hahau lakou ia ia, a ua lawe pio i kekahi poe nui loa o lakou, a alakai ia lakou i Damaseko: a ua haawiia no hoi ia iloko o ka lima o ke alii o ka Iseraela, a hahau mai oia ia ia ma ka hahau nui.

And the Lord his God delivered him into the hand of the king of Syria; and he struck him, and took captive of them a great band of prisoners, and carried him to Damascus. Also [God] delivered him into the hands of the king of Israel, who struck him with a great slaughter.

6 No ka mea, pepehi o Peka ke keiki a Remalia ma Iuda i hookahi haneri me ka iwakalua tausani kanaka i ka la hookahi, he poe ikaika lakou a pau loa; no ka mea, ua haalele lakou ia Iehova, ke Akua o ko lakou poe kupuna.

And Phakee the son of Romelias king of Israel, killed in Juda in one day a hundred and twenty thousand mighty men; because they had forsaken the Lord God of their fathers.

7 Ua pepehi o Zikeri, ke kanaka ikaika o Eperaima ia Maseia ke keiki a ke alii, a me Azerikama, ka luna o ka hale, a me Elekama, ka mea malalo iho o ke alii.

And Zechri, a mighty man of Ephraim, killed Maasias the king's son, and Ezrican the chief of his house, and Elcana the king's deputy.

8 A ua lawe pio aku ka poe mamo a Iseraela i elua haneri tausani o ko lakou poe hoahanau, he poe wahine, a he poe keiki kane, a he poe kaikamahine; a lawe no hoi lakou i ka waiwai pio he nui loa, a halihali lakou i ka waiwai pio i Samaria.

And the children of Israel took captive of their brethren three hundred thousand, women, and sons, and daughters, and they spoiled them of much property, and brought the spoils to Samaria.

9 Aia malaila kekahi kaula o Iehova, Odeda kona inoa; hele ia iwaho e halawai pu me ka poe koa i ko lakou komo ana iloko o Samaria, a olelo aku la oia ia lakou, Aia hoi, i ka huhu ana o Iehova ke Akua o ko oukou poe kupuna i ka Iuda, ua haawi mai oia ia lakou iloko o ko oukou mau lima, a ua luku oukou ia lakou me ka huhu i hiki loa aku i ka lani.

And there was there a prophet of the Lord, his name [was] Oded: and he went out to meet the host that were coming to Samaria, and said to them, Behold, the wrath of the Lord God of your fathers [is] upon Juda, and he has delivered them into your hands, and you have slain them in wrath, and it has reached even to heaven.

10 A ke manao nei oukou e hoohaahaa i ko Iuda a me ko Ierusalema a lilo lakou i poe kauwakane, a i poe kauwawahine na oukou: aka, o oukou, aole anei iwaena o oukou no hoi kekahi, ka hana hewa ana'ku ia Iehova i ko oukou Akua?

And now you talk of keeping the children of Juda and Jerusalem for servants and handmaidens. Behold, am I not with you to testify for the Lord your God?

11 Ano, e hoolohe mai oukou ia'u, e hoihoi aku i ka poe pio a oukou i lawe pio mai ai noloko mai o ko oukou poe hoahanau; no ka mea, ua wela ka huhu o Iehova maluna o oukou.

And now listen to me, and restore the prisoners of your brethren whom you have taken: for the fierce anger of the Lord [is] upon you.

12 Alaila, ku ae la iluna kekahi poe no na luna o ka Eperaima, o Azaria, ke keiki a Iehohana, o Berekia ke keiki a Meselemota, Iehizekia ke keiki a Saluma, a me Amasa ke keiki a Hadelai, a ku e lakou i ka poe i hoi mai mai ke kaua mai;

And the chiefs of the sons of Ephraim rose up, Udias the son of Joanas, and Barachias the son of Mosolamoth, and Ezekias the son of Sellem, and Amasias the son of Eldai, against those that came from the war,

13 Olelo aku la ia lakou, Mai lawe mai oukou i ka poe pio iloko nei; aia hoi, ua hewa kakou ia Iehova, a ke manao nei oukou e hoonui i ko kakou hewa, a me ko kakou lawehala; no ka mea, ua nui ko kakou hala, a ua wela ka huhu maluna o ka Iseraela.

and said to them, You shall not bring in hither the prisoners to us, for whereas sin against the Lord [is] upon us, you mean to add to our sins, and to our trespass: for our sin [is] great, and the fierce anger of the Lord [is] upon Israel.

14 Alaila, haalele ka poe koa i ka poe pio, a me ka waiwai pio imua o na alii, a imua o ka ahakanaka a pau.

So the warriors left the prisoners and the spoils before the princes and all the congregation.

15 A ku ae la iluna ua poe kanaka la i oleloia'i ko lakou inoa, a lawe lakou i ua poe pio la, a no ka waiwai pio hoaahu i ka poe o lakou i nele i ke kapa ole, a kahiko ia lakou, a hawele ia lakou i na kamaa, a haawi i ka ai na lakou, a hoohainu, a kahinu ia lakou i ka aila, a hooee i ka poe nawaliwali maluna o na hoki, a alakai ia lakou i Ieriko i ke kulanakauhale laau loulu, i ko lakou poe hoahanau: a hoi lakou i Samaria.

And the men who were called by name rose up, and took hold of the prisoners, and clothed all the naked from the spoils, and gave them garments and shoes, and gave them [food] to eat, and [oil] to anoint themselves [with], and they helped also every one that was weak with asses, and placed them in Jericho, the city of palm-trees, with their brethren; and they returned to Samaria.

16 Ia manawa hoouna o Ahaza ke alii ma na'lii o Asuria i kokua mai lakou ia ia.

At that time king Achaz sent to the king of Assyria to help him, and on this occasion,

17 No ka mea, ua hele hou mai ka Edoma, a pepehi i ka Iuda, a lawe pio i kekahi poe.

because the Idumeans had attacked [him], and struck Juda, and taken a number of prisoners.

18 A o ko Pilisetia, ua hao lakou i na kulanakauhale ma na awawa, a ma ke kukulu hema o Iuda, a ua hoopio ia Betesemesa, a me Aialona, a me Gederota, a me Soko, a me na kauhale e pili ana ilaila, a me Timena, a me na kauhale e pili ana ilaila, a me Gimezo, a me na kauhale e pili ana ilaila; a noho iho la lakou ma ia mau wahi.

Also the Philistines had made an attack on the cities of the plain country, and the cities of the south of Juda, and taken Baethsamys, and [the things in the house of the Lord, and the things in the house of the king, and of the princes: and they gave to the king] Aelon, and Galero, and Socho and her villages, and Thamna and her villages, and Gamzo and her villages: and they lived there.

19 No ka mea, hoohaahaa loa o Iehova i ka Iuda no ka hewa o Ahaza, ke alii o ka Iseraela; no ka mea, ua hookuu aku oia i ka Iuda i lawehala loa ia Iehova.

For the Lord humbled Juda because of Achaz king of Juda, because he grievously departed from the Lord.

20 A hele mai la io na la o Tilegata-pilenesera, ke alii o Asuria, a hoopilikia ia ia, aole hoi i kokua ia ia.

And there came against him Thalgaphellasar king of Assyria, and he afflicted him.

21 No ka mea, ua mahele o Ahaza i na mea iloko o ka hale o Iehova, a me ka hale o ke alii, a o na alii iho, a haawi aku na ke alii o Asuria; aole nae ia i kokua mai ia ia.

And Achaz took the things [that were] in the house of the Lord, and the things in the house of the king, and of the princes, and gave them to the king of Assyria: but he was no help to him,

22 A i kona wa popilikia, hoonui ia i kona lawehala ana ia Iehova. Oia no ua alii la, o Ahaza.

but only [troubled him] in his affliction: and he departed yet more from the Lord, and king Achaz said,

23 Ua mohai ia i na akua o Damaseko, na mea i pepehi mai ia ia; a olelo iho la ia, No ka mea, o na akua o na'lii o Suria, ua kokua ia mau mea ia lakou, no ia mea, e mohai aku au ia lakou, i kokua mai lakou ia'u. Aka, ua lilo lakou i mea e make ai ia, a me ka Iseraela a pau.

I will seek after the gods of Damascus that strike me. And he said, Forasmuch as the gods of the king of Syria themselves strengthen them, therefore will I sacrifice to them, and they will help me. But they became a stumbling block to him, and to all Israel.

24 A houluulu o Ahaza i na kiaha o ka hale o ke Akua, a okioki oia ia mau kiahi o ka hale o ke Akua, a pani ia i na puka o ka hale o Iehova, a hana iho la nona i mau kuahu ma na huina a pau o Ierusalema.

And Achaz removed the vessels of the house of the Lord, and cut them in pieces, and shut the doors of the house of the Lord, and made to himself altars in every corner in Jerusalem:

25 A ma kela kulanakauhale, keia kulanakauhale o Iuda, hana iho la ia i na wahi kiekie e kuni i ka mea ala i na akua e, a hoonaukiuki iho la oia ia Iehova i ke Akua o kona poe kupuna.

and in each several city in Juda he made high places to burn incense to strange gods: and they provoked the Lord God of their fathers.

26 A o ke koena o kana mau hana, a o kona aoao a pau, ka mua a me ka hope, aia hoi, ua kakauia iloko o ka buke no na'lii o ka Iuda a me ka Iseraela.

And the rest of his acts, and his deeds, the first and the last, behold, [they are] written in the book of the kings of Juda and Israel.

27 A hiamoe iho la o Ahaza me kona poe kupuna, a ua kanu lakou ia ia iloko o ke kulanakauhale ma Ierusalema; aka, aole lakou i waiho ia ia ma na wahi e kanu ai no na'lii o Iseraela; a noho alii iho la o Hezekia kana keiki mahope ona.

And Achaz slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David; for they did not bring him into the sepulchres of the kings of Israel: and Ezekias his son reigned in his stead.
