II Oihanaalii 29
1 HOOMAKA iho la o Hezekia e alii i kona makahiki he iwakaluakumamalima, a he iwakaluakumamaiwa makahiki kona noho alii ana ma Ierusalema; a o ka inoa o kona makuwahine, o Abia, ke kaikamahine a Zekaria.
And Ezekias began to reign at the age of twenty-five years, and he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem: and his mother's name was Abia, daughter of Zacharias.
2 Hana pololei iho la oia imua i ke alo o Iehova, e like me na mea a pau a Davida kona kupuna i hana'i.
And he did that which was right in the sight of the Lord, according to all that his father David had done.
3 I ka makahiki mua o kona noho alii ana, a i ka malama mua no hoi, wehe ae la ia i na puka o ka hale o Iehova, a hana hou ia mau mea.
And it came to pass, when he was established over his kingdom, in the first month, he opened the doors of the house of the Lord, and repaired them.
4 Kii aku ia i na kahuna a me na Levi, a houluulu ia lakou ma ke ala ma ka hikina;
And he brought in the priests and the Levites, and put them on the east side,
5 Olelo aku la oia ia lakou, E hoolohe mai oukou ia'u, e na Levi; ano, e huikala oukou ia oukou iho, a e hoomaemae oukou i ka hale o Iehova ke Akua o ko oukou poe kupuna, a e lawe aku i na mea haumia mai kahi hoano aku.
and said to them, Hear, ye Levites: now sanctify yourselves, and sanctify the house of the Lord God of your fathers, and cast out the impurity from the holy places.
6 No ka mea, ua lawehala ko kakou poe kupuna, ua hana ino lakou imua i ke alo o Iehova, ko kakou Akua, ua haalele lakou ia ia, ua huli ko lakou maka mai ka halelewa o Iehova aku, a ua haawi mai lakou i ke kua.
For our fathers have revolted, and done that which was evil before the Lord our God, and have forsaken him, and have turned away their face from the tabernacle of the Lord, and have turned [their] back.
7 A ua pani lakou i na puka o ka lanai, ua kinai i na kukui, aole lakou i kuni i ka mea ala, aole hoi i mohai aku lakou i kekahi mohai ma kahi hoano o ke Akua o ka Iseraela.
And they have shut up the doors of the temple, and put out the lamps, and have not burnt incense, and have not offered whole-burnt-offerings in the holy [place] to the God of Israel.
8 No ia mea, ua kauia mai ka huhu o Iehova maluna o ka Iuda, a me ko Ierusalema, a ua haawi oia ia lakou i ka hana ino ia mai, a me ka heneheneia mai, a me ka hoowahawahaia mai, e like me ka mea a ko oukou mau maka i ike iho nei.
And the Lord was very angry with Juda and Jerusalem, and made them an astonishment, and a desolation, and a hissing, as ye see with your eyes.
9 Aia hoi, ua haule ko kakou poe kupuna i ka pahikaua, a o ka kakou poe keiki kane, a me na kaikamahine a kakou, a me na wahine a kakou, he poe pio lakou no keia hewa.
And, behold, your fathers have been smitten with the sword, and your sons and your daughters and your wives are in captivity in a land not their own, as it is even now.
10 Ano, eia no iloko o ko'u naau e hana i berita me Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela, i huli ae kona huhu wela mai o kakou aku.
Therefore it is now in my heart to make a covenant, a covenant with the Lord God of Israel, that he may turn away his fierce wrath from us.
11 Ano, e ka'u poe keiki, mai lalau oukou; no ka mea, ua wae mai o Iehova ia oukou e ku imua ona e hookauwa nana, a e lawelawe i kana mau oihana, a e kuni i ka mea ala.
And now be not wanting [to your duty], for the Lord has chosen you to stand before him to minister, and to be ministers and burners of incense to him.
12 Alaila, ku ae la iluna na Levi, o Mahata, ke keiki a Amasai, a me Ioela, ke keiki a Azaria, no ka poe mamo a Kohata; a no ka poe mamo a Merari, o Kisa ke keiki a Abedi, a me Azaria ke keiki a Iehalelela; a o ka poe mamo a Geresoma, o Ioa ke keiki a Zima, a o Edena ke keiki a Ioa;
Then the Levites rose up, Maath the son of Amasi, and Joel the son of Azarias, of the sons of Caath: and of the sons of Merari, Kis the son of Abdi, and Azarias the son of Haelel: and of the sons of Gedsoni, Jodaad the son of Zemmath, and Joadam: these [were] the sons of Joacha.
13 A no ka poe mamo a Elizapana, o Simeri, a me Ieila; a no ka poe mamo a Asapa, o Zekaria, a me Matania;
And of the sons of Elisaphan; Zambri, and Jeiel: and of the sons of Asaph; Zacharias, and Matthanias:
14 A no ka poe mamo a Hemana, o Iehiela, a me Simei; a no ka poe mamo a Iedutuna, o Semaia a me Uziela.
and of the sons of Aeman; Jeiel, and Semei: and of the sons of Idithun; Samaisa, and Oziel.
15 A houluulu lakou i ko lakou poe hoahanau, a huikala ia lakou iho, a hele mai e like me ke kauoha a ke alii, a me ka olelo a Iehova, e hoomaemae i ka hale o Iehova.
And they gathered their brethren, and they purified themselves according to the king's command by the order of the Lord, to purify the house of the Lord.
16 A komo na kahuna iloko lilo o ka hale o Iehova e hoomaemae, a lawe lakou iwaho i na mea maemae ole a pau i loaa ia lakou ma ka luakini o Iehova, a waiho ma ke kahua o ka hale o Iehova. A lawe ka poe mamo a Levi ia mau mea, a hali aku i ke kahawai o Kiderona.
And the priests entered into the house of the Lord, to purify [it], and they cast out all the uncleanness that was found in the house of the Lord, even into the court of the house of the Lord: and the Levites received [it] to cast into the brook of Kedron without.
17 Hoomaka lakou e hoomaemae i ka la mua o ka malama mua, a i ka la ewalu o ua malama la ua hiki lakou i ka lanai o Iehova; pela i hoomaemae ai lakou i ka hale o Iehova i na la ewalu, a i ka la umikumamaono o ka malama mua, hoopau ae la lakou.
And [Ezekias] began on the first day, [even] on the new moon of the first month, to purify, and on the eighth day of the month they entered into the temple of the Lord: and they purified the house of the Lord in eight days; and on the thirteenth day of the first month they finished [the work].
18 A komo lakou iloko io Hezekia la, ke alii, a olelo aku la ia ia, Ua hoomaemae makou i ka hale o Iehova a pau, a me ke kuahu mohai, a me ko laila mau kiaha a pau, a me ka papa berena hoike, a me ko laila mau kiaha a pau.
And they went in to king Ezekias, and said, We have purified all the things in the house of the Lord, the altar of whole-burnt-offering, and its vessels, and the table of shew-bread, and its vessels;
19 A me na kiaha a pau a ke alii a Ahaza i kiola aku ai, i kona lawehala ana i kona wa i noho alii ai, hoomakaukau makou, a hoomaemae no hoi, aia hoi ia mau mea imua o ke kuahu o Iehova.
and all the vessels which king Achaz polluted in his reign, in his apostasy, we have prepared and purified: behold, they are before the altar of the Lord.
20 A kakahiaka nui ala ae la o Hezekia, ke alii, a houluulu i na alii o ke kulanakauhale, a pii aku i ka hale o Iehova.
And king Ezekias rose early in the morning, and gathered the chief men of the city, and went up to the house of the Lord.
21 A lawe mai lakou i ehiku bipi kane, a me na hipa keiki ehiku, a me na kao kane ehiku, i mohaihala no ke aupuni, a no ke keenakapu, a no ka Iuda; a kauoha aku la ia i na mamo a Aarona, i na kahuna, e mohai aku ia mau mea maluna o ke kuahu o Iehova.
And he brought seven calves, seven rams, seven lambs, seven kids of goats for a sin-offering, for the kingdom, and for the holy things, and for Israel: and he told the priests the sons of Aaron to go up to the altar of the Lord.
22 A pepehi iho la lakou i na bipi, a lawe na kahuna i ke koko, a kapipi iho la maluna o ke kuahu; a pepehi no hoi lakou i na hipa kane, a kapipi iho la i ke koko maluna o ke kuahu; a pepehi lakou i na hipa keiki no hoi, a kapipi iho la i ke koko maluna o ke kuahu.
And they slew the calves, and the priests received the blood, and poured it on the altar: and they slew the rams, and poured the blood upon the altar: also they slew the lambs, and poured the blood round the altar.
23 A kai mai la lakou i na kao kane i mohaihala imua o ke alii, a me ka ahakanaka; a kau lakou i ko lakou mau lima maluna o ia mau mea:
And they brought the goats for a sin-offering before the king and the congregation; and laid their hands upon them.
24 A pepehi na kahuna ia mau mea, a mohai aku i ko lakou koko maluna o ke kuahu, i mea e uhi ai i ka hala no ka Iseraela a pau; no ka mea, no ka Iseraela a pau i kauoha ai ke alii i ka mohaikuni a me ka mohaihala.
And the priests slew them, and offered their blood as a propitiation on the altar; and they made atonement for all Israel: for the king said, The whole-burnt-offering, and the sin-offering [are] for all Israel.
25 A hoonoho iho la oia i na Levi iloko o ka hale o Iehova me na kimebala, a me na pesaletera, a me na mea kani, e like me ke kauoha a Davida, a me Gada ke kumu a ke alii, a me Natana ke kaula: no ka mea, pela ke kauoha a Iehova ma na kaula.
And he stationed the Levites in the house of the Lord with cymbals, and lutes, and harps, according to the commandment of king David, and of Gad the king's seer, and Nathan the prophet: for by the commandment of the Lord the order [was] in the hand of the prophets.
26 A ku ae la iluna na Levi me na mea kani a Davida, a o na kahuna kekahi me na pu.
And the Levites stood with the instruments of David, and the priests with the trumpets.
27 Alaila, kauoha o Hezekia e mohai aku i ka mohai maluna o ke kuahu; a i ka wa i hoomaka ai lakou e mohai aku, hoomaka no hoi ka himeni o Iehova me na pu a me na mea kani, a Davida ke alii o ka Iseraela.
And Ezekias told [them] to offer up the whole-burnt-offering on the altar: and when they began to offer the whole-burnt-offering, they began to sing to the Lord, and the trumpets [accompanied] the instruments of David king of Israel.
28 A o ka ahakanaka a pau loa, kulou iho la lakou, a himeni aku ka poe himeni, puhi no hoi ka poe puhi pu; a hana pela a pau ka mohai ana.
And all the congregation worshipped, and the psalm-singers [were] singing, and the trumpets sounding, until the whole-burnt-sacrifice had been completely offered.
29 A pau ae la ka mohai ana, kulou iho la ke alii, a me ka poe malaila pu me ia a pau, a hoomana aku la.
And when they had done offering [it], the king and all that were present bowed, and worshipped.
30 Alaila, kauoha ae la o Hezekia ke alii, a me na kaukaualii i na Levi, e hoomaikai aku ia Iehova ma na olelo a Davida, a me Asapa ke kaula. A hoomaikai aku lakou me ka olioli, kulou iho la, a hoomana aku la.
And king Ezekias and the princes told the Levites to sing hymns to the Lord in the words of David, and of Asaph the prophet: and they sang hymns with gladness, and fell down and worshipped.
31 Olelo mai la o Hezekia, i mai la, Ano, ua hoolaa oukou ia oukou iho no Iehova, e hele mai, a e lawe mai i na mohai, a me na mohai aloha i ka hale o Iehova. A lawe mai ka ahakanaka i na alana, a me na mohai aloha; a o ka poe a pau i makemake ka naau, lawe mai lakou i na mohaikuni.
Then Ezekias answered and said, Now ye have consecrated yourselves to the Lord, bring near and offer sacrifices of praise in the house of the Lord. And the congregation brought sacrifices and thank-offerings into the house of the Lord; and every one who was ready in his heart [brought] whole-burnt-offerings.
32 O na mohaikuni ma ka helu ana, a ka ahakanaka i lawe mai ai, he kanahiku bipi, hookahi haneri hipa kane, a elua haneri hipa keiki: no ka mohaikuni ia Iehova keia mau mea a pau loa.
And the number of the whole-burnt-offerings which the congregation brought, was seventy calves, a hundred rams, two hundred lambs: all these [were] for a whole-burnt-offering to the Lord.
33 A o na mea i hoolaaia, eono haneri bipi, a ekolu tausani hipa.
And the consecrated calves were six hundred, [and] the sheep three thousand.
34 Aka, aole i nui ka poe kahuna, aole hiki ia lakou wale no ke pepehi i na mohaikuni a pau: no ia mea, kokua mai ko lakou poe hoahanau, o na Levi, a hiki i ka pau ana o ka hana, a i ka wa hoi i huikala mai ai ka poe kahuna ia lakou iho; no ka mea, ua oi aku ka pololei o ka naau o na Levi e huikala ia lakou iho mamua o na kahuna.
But the priests were few, and could not flay the whole-burnt-offering, so their brethren the Levites helped them, until the work was finished, and until the priests had purified themselves: for the Levites [more] zealously purified [themselves] than the priests.
35 Ua nui loa no hoi na mohaikuni me ka momona o na mohai aloha, a me na mohai inu, no kela mohaikuni, keia mohaikuni. Pela i hooponoponoia'i na oihana o ka hale o Iehova.
And the whole-burnt-offering [was] abundant, with the fat of the complete peace-offering, and the drink-offerings of the whole-burnt-sacrifice. So the service was established in the house of the Lord.
36 A hauoli o Hezekia a me na kanaka a pau i ko ke Akua hoomakaukau ana i na kanaka; no ka mea, hiki wawe no ka hana.
And Ezekias and all the people rejoiced, because God has prepared the people: for the thing was done suddenly.
