II Oihanaalii 32
1 A MAHOPE iho o keia mau mea a me ka hooponopono ana, hiki mai la o Senakeriba ke alii o Asuria, hiki mai la ia ma Iuda, a hoomoana ku e iho la i na kulanakauhale paa i ka pa, me ka manao e lawe pio ia mau mea nona.
After these things and veritable events came Sennacherib the king of Assyria, and invaded Judah, and encamped against the fortified cities, and thought to break them open for himself.
2 A ike o Hezekia, ua hiki mai o Senakeriba, aia hoi kona manao e kaua mai ia Ierusalema,
And when Hezekiah saw that Sennacherib was coming, and that his face [was directed] for war against Jerusalem,
3 Kukakuka pu ia me kona poe koa e pani i ka wai o na punawai, aia no mawaho o ke kulanakauhale: a kokua lakou ia ia.
He consulted with his princes and his mighty men to stop up the waters of the springs which were without the city: and they helped him.
4 Hoakoakoaia na kanaka he nui loa, a pani lakou i na punawai a pau, a me ke kahawai i kahe mai mawaena konu o ka aina, i iho la, No ke aha la e hele mai ai na'lii o Asuria, a loaa ia lakou ka wai he nui loa?
And there were gathered together a very numerous body of people, and they stopped up all the springs, and the brook that flowed through the midst of the land, saying, Why should the kings of Assyria come, and find much water?
5 A hooikaika oia a uhau iho la i kela wahi keia wahi o ka pa i wawahiia, a hookiekie ae a hiki i na halekiai, a i kekahi pa e ae mawaho, a hana hou ia Milo i ke kulanakauhale o Davida, a hana iho la i na ihe a me na palekaua he nui loa.
Also he strengthened himself, and built up all the wall where it was broken down, and heightened the towers, and [built] without another wall, and fortified the Millo of the city of David, and made weapons in abundance and shields.
6 Hoonoho no hoi oia i na luna kaua maluna o na kanaka, a hoakoakoa ia lakou io na la ma ke alanui ma ka ipuka o ke kulanakauhale, a olelo oluolu ia lakou, i aku la,
And he appointed war-officers over the people, and gathered them together unto him in the open place at the gate of the city, and spoke comfortingly to them, saying,
7 E ikaika oukou, e koa hoi, mai makau, aole hoi e weliweli imua o ke alii o Asuria, a imua o keia poe lehulehu a pau me ia: no ka mea, ua oi aku ka poe me makou i ka poe me ia.
Be strong and of good courage, do not fear and be not dismayed because of the king of Assyria, and because of all the multitude that is with him; for with us there is One greater than with him:
8 Me ia he lima kanaka; aka, me kakou o Iehova ko kakou Akua, e kokua mai ia kakou, a e kaua i ko kakou kaua. A hilinai na kanaka i na olelo a Hezekia, ke alii o ka Iuda.
With him there is an arm of flesh; but with us is the Lord our God to help us, and to fight our battles. And the people relied upon the words of Hezekiah the king of Judah.
9 A mahope iho o keia mea, hoouna o Senakeriba ke alii o Asuria i kana poe kaua i Ierusalema, (aia no ia a me kaua poe ikaika me ia e ku e ana ia Lakisa, ) io Hezekia la, ke alii o Iuda, a i ka Iuda a pau, aia ma Ierusalema, i mai la,
After this did Sennacherib the king of Assyria send his servants to Jerusalem, while he was himself lying before Lachish, and all [the chief troops of] his dominion with him, against Hezekiah the king of Judah, and against all Judah that were at Jerusalem, saying,
10 Penei i olelo ai o Senakeriba, ke alii o Asuria, Ma ke aha la i paulele ai oukou i ko oukou noho ana i ka popilikia ma Ierusalema.
Thus hath said Sennacherib the king of Assyria, On what do ye trust, that ye remain besieged in Jerusalem?
11 Aole anei i hooikaika o Hezekia ia oukou e haawi ia oukou iho i ka make i ka pololi a me ka makewai, i kana olelo ana ae, O Iehova ko kakou Akua, e hoopakele oia ia kakou mai ka lima aku o ke alii o Asuria.
Doth not Hezekiah mislead you to give you up to die by famine and by thirst, when he saith, The Lord our God will deliver us out of the grasp of the king of Assyria?
12 Aole anei o ua Hezekia la keia, ka mea nana i lawe aku i kona mau wahi kiekie, a me kona mau kuahu, a olelo aku i ka Iuda, a me ko Ierusalema, i aku la, Imua o ke kuahu hookahi, o hoomana ai oukou, a maluna iho o ia mea e kuni ai i ka mea ala?
Is it not this Hezekiah that hath removed his high-places and his altars, when he said to Judah and to Jerusalem, saying, Before one altar shall ye prostrate yourselves, and upon it shall ye burn incense?
13 Aole anei oukou i ike i ka mea a'u i hana'i, Owau a me ko'u mau makua, i na kanaka a pau o na aina? Ua hiki anei i na akua o na lahuikanaka o na aina ke hoopakele i ko lakou aina mai ko'u lima aku?
Know ye not what I have done, I and my fathers, unto all the people of [other] lands? were the gods of the nations of those lands at all able to deliver their land out of my hand?
14 Owai ka mea o na akua a pau o ia mau lahuikanaka a ko'u mau makua i luku loa ai, i hiki ia ia ke hoopakele i kona poe kanaka mai ko'u lima aku, i maopopo e hiki i ko oukou Akua ke hoopakele ia oukou mai ko'u lima aku?
Who among all the gods of those nations that my fathers utterly destroyed, was it, that was able to deliver his people out of my hand, that your God should be able to deliver you out of my hand?
15 Ano, mai noho a hoopunipuni o Hezekia ia oukou, a malimali mai ia oukou pela, mai paulele oukou ia ia; no ka mea, aole hiki i kekahi akua o kekahi lahuikanaka, a me kekahi aupuni ke hoopakele i kona poe kanaka mai ko'u lima aku, a mai ka lima aku o ko'u poe kupuna; a pehea la e hoopakele ai ko oukou Akua ia oukou mai ko'u lima aku?
And now let not Hezekiah deceive you, and let him not mislead you in this manner, nor believe him; for no god of any nation or kingdom whatever was able to deliver his people out of my hand, and out of the hand of my fathers: how much less will you Gods, deliver you out of my hand!
16 A olelo ino hou aku kana poe kauwa ia Iehova, ke Akua, a ia Hezekia kana kauwa.
And yet more did his servants speak against the Lord God, and against his servant Hezekiah.
17 A kakau ia i na palapala e hoino aku ia Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela, me ka olelo aku ia ia, i aku la, E like me na akua o na lahuikanaka o na aina e, aole lakou i hoopakele i ko lakou poe kanaka mai ko'u lima aku, pela hoi, aole e hoopakele ke Akua o Hezekia i kona poe kanaka mai ko'u lima aku.
He wrote also letters to blaspheme against the Lord the God of Israel, and to speak against him, saying, As the gods of the nations of [other] lands, who have not delivered their people out of my hand, so will the God of Hezekiah not deliver his people out of my hand.
18 Kahea lakou me ka leo nui, ma ka olelo a ka Iuda, i na kanaka o Ierusalema i ka poe maluna o ka pa, e hoomakau ia lakou, a e hoopihoihoi ia lakou, i loaa mai ke kulanakauhale ia lakou.
Then did they call out with a loud voice in the Jewish language unto the people of Jerusalem that were on the wall, to frighten them, and to terrify them: in order that they might capture the city.
19 Olelo ino aku la lakou i ke Akua o Ierusalema, e like me na akua o ko na aina e, na mea a kanaka i hana'i.
And they spoke of the God of Jerusalem, as concerning the gods of the nations of the earth, the work of the hands of man.
20 No keia mea, pule aku la o Hezekia ke alii, a me Isaia ke keiki a Amosa, ke kaula, a kahea aku laua i ka lani.
And king Hezekiah and Isaiah the son of Amos the prophet prayed for this cause, and they cried to heaven.
21 A hoouna mai o Iehova i anela, nana i luku iho i ka poe koa ikaika a pau, a me na luna, a me na kapena, ma kahi i hoomoana'i ke alii o Asuria: a hoi aku ia i kona aina me ka maka hilahila. A hiki ia i ka hale o kona akua, o na mea i puka mailoko mai o kona puhaka, pepehi lakou ia ia malaila i ka pahikaua.
And the Lord sent an angel, who cut off every mighty man of valor and leader and captain in the camp of the king of Assyria: and when he was returned with shame of face to his own land, he went into the house of his god, and [those] that were come forth from his own bowels felled him there with the sword.
22 Pela i hoola ai o Iehova ia Hezekia a me ko Ierusalema mai ka lima aku o Senakeriba ke alii o Asuria, a mai ka lima aku o na mea a pau, a kiai oia maluna o lakou a puni.
Thus did the Lord save Hezekiah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem out of the hand of Sennacherib the king of Assyria, and out of the hand of all, and guided them [safely] on every side.
23 A nui ka poe i lawe mai i na makana na Iehova ma Ierusalema, a me na mea haawi wale na Hezekia ke alii o ka Iuda; a ua kiekie oia i na maka o na lahuikanaka a pau mai ia manawa mai.
And many brought presents unto the Lord to Jerusalem, and precious things to Hezekiah the king of Judah: so that he was exalted before the eyes of all the nations after that time.
24 Ia mau la, he mai make ko Hezekia, a pule aku la oia ia Iehova; a olelo mai kela ia ia, a hana mai ia ia i ka hana mana.
In those days fell Hezekiah sick to the death; and he prayed unto the Lord: and he spoke unto him, and he gave him a wonderful token.
25 Aole hoi i hana aku o Hezekia e like me kana lokomaikaiia mai; no ka mea, ua hookiekieia kona naau: no ia mea, ua hiki mai ka huhu maluna ona, a maluna o ka Iuda a me ko Ierusalema.
But not according to the mercy shown unto him did Hezekiah act in return; for his heart was lifted up: wherefore there came wrath over him, and over Judah and Jerusalem.
26 Aka, hoohaahaa o Hezekia ia ia iho no ke kiekie o kona naau, oia a me ko Ierusalema, no ia mea, aole i hiki mai ka huhu o Iehova maluna o lakou i na la o Hezekia.
Then became Hezekiah humbled because of the lifting up of his heart, both he and the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and the wrath of the Lord came not upon them in the days of Hezekiah.
27 Aia no ia Hezekia ka waiwai a me ka hanohano he nui loa; a hana iho la ia nona i mau waihonawaiwai no ke kala, a no ke gula, a no na pohaku makamae, a no na mea ala, a no na palekaua, a no na ipu maikai a pau o kela ano keia ano;
And Hezekiah had riches and honor in exceeding abundance; and he made himself treasuries for silver, and for gold, and for precious stones, and for spices, and for shields, and for all manner of costly vessels;
28 I na hale paapaa no hoi no ka hoahu ana o ka ai, a me ka waina, a me ka aila; i na wahi no na holoholona a pau loa, a i na pa no hoi no na hipa.
And storehouses for the produce of corn, and new wine, and oil; and stalls for all kinds of cattle, and sheepfolds for flocks.
29 Hana no hoi ia nona i na kulanakauhale, a loaa ia ia na hipa, a me na bipi he nui loa; no ka mea, haawi mai no ke Akua ia ia i ka waiwai he nui loa.
Moreover he erected for himself cities, and [acquired] possessions of flocks and herds in multitude; for God had given him wealth in great abundance.
30 A o ua Hezekia la, ua pani oia i ke kahawai o Gihona maluna iho, a hookahe pololei mai ia mea ma ka aoao komohana o ke kulanakauhale o Davida. A ua hoopomaikaiia mai o Hezekia ma kana hana ana a pau loa.
This same Hezekiah also stopped up the upper mouth of the waters of Gichon, and brought them straight down to the west side of the city of David. And Hezekiah prospered in all his works.
31 Aka, ma ka mea a na elele a na alii o Babulona i hoounaia mai ai io na la, e imi i ka mea kupanaha i hanaia ma ka aina, ua haalele ke Akua ia ia, e hoao ia ia, i ike oia i kona naau a pau loa.
And in the same manner in the business of the ambassadors of the princes of Babylon, who sent unto him to inquire concerning the wonder that had happened in the land, God left him, to prove him, to know all that was in his heart.
32 A o na mea i koe a Hezekia i hana'i, a me kona maikai, aia hoi ua kakauia ma ka wanana a Isaia ke keiki a Amosa ke kaula, a ma ka buke no na'lii o Iuda a me Iseraela.
And the rest of the acts of Hezekiah, and his pious deeds, behold, they are written in the vision of Isaiah the son of Amoz, the prophet, [and] in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.
33 A hiamoe o Hezekia me kona poe kupuna, a kanu lakou ia ia ma kahi kiekie o na ilina no na mamo a Davida, a hoohanohano ka Iuda a pau, a me ko Ierusalema ia ia i kona make ana; a noho alii iho la, o Manase kana keiki ma kona hakahaka.
And Hezekiah slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the highest place of the sepulchres of the sons of David: and all Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem showed him honor at his death. And Manasseh his son became king in his stead.
