< II Oihanaalii 31 >
1 A PAU ae la keia mau mea a pau, hele iwaho ka Iseraela a pau i hoakoakoaia ma na kulanakauhale o ka Iuda, a kuipalu iho la i na kii, a oki liilii i na kii no Asetarota. a wawahi i na wahi kiekie, a me na kuahu ma Iuda a pau, a me Beniamina, a me Eperaima no hoi, a me Manase, a pau ae la ia mau mea. Alaila, hoi na mamo a Iseraela a pau, kela kanaka keia kanaka i kona aina hooili, i ko lakou mau kulanakauhale iho.
Now when all this was finished, all the people of Israel who were there went out to the cities of Judah and broke to pieces the stone pillars and they cut down the Asherah poles, and they broke down the high places and the altars in all of Judah and Benjamin, and in Ephraim and Manasseh, until they had destroyed them all. Then all the people of Israel returned, every one to his own possession and his own city.
2 A hoonoho o Hezekia i na papa o ka poe kahuna, a me na Levi, e like me ko lakou papa, o kela kanaka keia kanaka e like me kana oihana, i na kahuna a me na Levi ma ka mohaikuni a me na mohai aloha, e lawelawe, a e hoomaikai aku, a e hoolea aku ma na puka o na halelewa o Iehova.
Hezekiah assigned the divisions of the priests and the Levites organized by their divisions, each man assigned to his work, both the priests and the Levites. He assigned them to make the burnt offerings and fellowship offerings, to serve, to give thanks, and to praise at the gates of Yahweh's temple.
3 Hoomaopopo no hoi oia i kauwahi noloko mai o ka waiwai a ke alii, i mau mohaikuni, i mau mohai no ke kakahiaka, a me ke ahiahi; i mau mohai no na Sabati, a no na mahina hou, a no na ahaaina, e like me ka mea i kakauia iloko o ke kanawai o Iehova.
He also assigned the king's portion for the burnt offerings from his own possessions, that is, for the morning and evening burnt offerings, and the burnt offerings for the Sabbath days, the new moons, and the fixed festivals, as it was written in the law of Yahweh.
4 Olelo ia i na kanaka i ka poe i noho ma Ierusalema, e haawi aku i ka haawina o ka poe kahuna, a me na Levi i ikaika lakou ma ke kanawai o Iehova.
Moreover, he commanded the people who lived in Jerusalem to give the portion for the priests and the Levites, so that they might concentrate on obeying the law of Yahweh.
5 A hoolahaia keia olelo, hoonui iho la ka poe mamo a Iseraela i ka ohi mua ana o ka ai, a me ka waina, a me ka aila, a me ka meli, a me na mea a pau o ke kihapai i ohiia'i; a lawe nui mai lakou i ka hapaumi o ia mau mea a pau.
As soon as the command was sent out, the people of Israel generously gave the firstfruits of grain, new wine, oil, honey, and from all their harvest of the field. They brought in a tithe of everything, which was a great quantity.
6 A o na mamo a Iseraela, a me ka Iuda, ka poe noho ma na kulanakauhale o Iuda, lawe mai lakou i ka hapaumi o na bipi, a me na hipa, a me ka hapaumi o na mea laa i hoolaaia ia Iehova ko lakou Akua, a waiho akoakoa lakou ia mau mea, he puu okoa no, a he puu okoa.
The people of Israel and Judah who lived in the cities of Judah also brought in the tithe of cattle and sheep, and the tithe of the holy things that were set apart to Yahweh their God, and they piled them up in heaps.
7 I ka malama ekolu, hoomaka lakou e hookumu i na puu, a i ka malama ehiku, ua hoopau lakou.
It was in the third month when they began piling up their contribution in heaps, and they finished in the seventh month.
8 Alaila, hiki mai o Hezekia, a me na alii, a ike i na puu, a hoomaikai lakou ia Iehova, a i kona poe kanaka i ka Iseraela.
When Hezekiah and the leaders came and saw the heaps, they blessed Yahweh and his people Israel.
9 Ninau o Hezekia i na kahuna a me na Levi no na puu.
Then Hezekiah questioned the priests and the Levites about the heaps.
10 Hai mai o Azaria, ke kahuna nui, no ka hale o Zadoka, i mai la, Mai ka hoomaka ana mai e lawe i ka mohai iloko o ka hale o Iehova, he ai no a maona, a koe no ka nui; no ka mea, ua hoomaikai mai o Iehova i kona poe kanaka; a eia ke koena, o keia mea he nui no.
Azariah, the chief priest, of the house of Zadok, answered him and said, “Since the people began to bring the offerings into the house of Yahweh, we have eaten and had enough, and have plenty left over, for Yahweh has blessed his people. What was left over is this large amount here.”
11 Alaila, kauoha o Hezekia e hoomakaukau i na keena oluna ma ka hale o Iehova: a hoomakaukau iho la lakou,
Then Hezekiah commanded storerooms to be prepared in the house of Yahweh, and they prepared them.
12 A lawe iloko no lakou me ka oiaio i na makana, a me ka hookupu hapaumi, a me na mea i hoolaaia; a o ka luna maluna o keia mau mea oia o Konania ka Levi, a o Simei o kona hoahanau ka lua.
Then they faithfully brought in the offerings, the tithes and the things that belonged to Yahweh. Konaniah the Levite was the manager in charge of them, and his brother Shimei was second to him.
13 A o Iehiela, a me Azaria, a me Nahata, o Asahela a me Iremota, a me Iozabada, o Eliela, a me Isemakia, a o Mahata, a me Benaia oia ka poe luna, malalo iho o Konania, a me Simei, kona hoahanau, ma ke kanawai o Hezekia ke alii, a me Azaria, ka luna o ka hale o ke Akua.
Jehiel, Azaziah, Nahath, Asahel, Jerimoth, Jozabad, Eliel, Ismakiah, Mahath, and Benaiah were managers under the hand of Konaniah and Shimei his brother, by appointment of Hezekiah, the king, and Azariah, the official over the house of God.
14 A o Kore ke keiki a Imena o ka Levi, ka mea kiai puka ma ka hikina, maluna oia o na makana no ke Akua, e haawi i na makana no Iehova a me na mea i hoolaa loa ia.
Kore son of Imnah the Levite, the porter at the east gate, was over the free will offerings of God, in charge of distributing the offerings to Yahweh and the most holy offerings.
15 A mahope ona, o Edena, a me Miniamina, a me Iesua, a me Semaia, a me Amaria, a me Sikania, ma na kulanakauhale o na kahuna, e haawi maopopo na ko lakou poe hoahanau, ma na papa, e like me ka mea nui, pela no ka mea uuku.
Under him were Eden, Miniamin, Jeshua, Shemaiah, Amariah, and Shecaniah, in the cities of the priests. They filled offices of trust, in order to give these offerings to their brothers division by division, to both the important and the unimportant.
16 A okoa ka haawi ana ma ko lakou kuauhau mai ka poe kane o na makahiki ekolu, a maluna ae, a hiki i ka poe a pau i komo iloko o ka hale o Iehova, i wahi mea i kela la keia la, no ko lakou lawelawe ana ma ka lakou mau oihana e like me ko lakou mau papa;
They also gave to those males three years old and up, who were listed in the records of their ancestors who entered the house of Yahweh, as required by the daily schedule, to do the work in their offices and their divisions.
17 A me ke kuauhau o na kahuna e like me ko ka hale o ko lakou poe kupuna, a i na Levi, mai ka makahiki iwakalua a oi aku, ma ka lakou mau oihana, a me ko lakou mau papa:
They distributed to the priests according to the records of their ancestors, and the same to the Levites twenty years old and more, according to their offices and their divisions.
18 A me ke kuauhau o ka lakou poe keiki liilii, a me ka lakou mau wahine, a me ka lakou poe keikikane, a me ka lakou poe kaikamahine, i ka ahakanaka a pau; no ka mea, e like me ka mea mau ia lakou, huikala iho la lakou ia lakou iho:
They included all their little ones, their wives, their sons, and their daughters, through the whole community, for they were faithful in keeping themselves holy.
19 A i ka poe mamo a Aarona ke kahuna ma na kula, kahi e pili ana i ko lakou mau kulanakauhale, ma kela kulanakauhale, keia kulanakauhale, o na kanaka i kapaia ko lakou mau inoa, e haawi i na makana na ka poe kane a pau o na kahuna, a na na Levi a pau i kuauhauia.
For the priests, the descendants of Aaron, who were in the fields of the villages belonging to their cities, or in every city, there were men assigned by name to give portions to all the males among the priests, and to all who were listed in the records of their ancestors as being among the Levites.
20 Pela i hana'i o Hezekia ma Iuda a pau, hana maikai no ia, a me ka pololei, a me ka oiaio imua o Iehova, kona Akua.
Hezekiah did this throughout all Judah. He accomplished what was good, right, and faithful before Yahweh, his God.
21 I na hana a pau ana i hoomaka'i, i mea e hookauwa aku ai na ka hale o ke Akua, a me ke kanawai, a me ke kauoha, e imi aku i kona Akua, me kona naau a pau oia kana i hana'i, a ua kokuaia mai.
In every project that he began in the service of the house of God, the law, and the commandments, to seek his God, he performed it with all his heart, and he succeeded.
