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 this faithfulness, Sennacherib king of Assyria came, and entered into Judah, and camped against the fortified cities, and thought to win them for himself.
2 A ike o Hezekia, ua hiki mai o Senakeriba, aia hoi kona manao e kaua mai ia Ierusalema,
When Hezekiah saw that Sennacherib had come, and that he intended to fight 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 took counsel with his princes and his mighty men to stop the waters of the springs which were outside of 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?
So many people gathered together, and they stopped 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.
He took courage, and built up all the wall that was broken down, and raised towers upon it, and the other wall outside, and strengthened Millo in the City of David, and made weapons and shields in abundance.
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,
He set captains of war over the people, and gathered them together to him in the broad place at the gate of the city, and spoke comfortably 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 courageous, do not be afraid nor dismayed for the king of Assyria, nor for all the multitude who is with him; for there is a greater with us 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 is an arm of flesh; but with us is YHWH our God to help us, and to fight our battles." The people rested themselves on the words of Hezekiah 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, Sennacherib king of Assyria sent his servants to Jerusalem, (now he was before Lachish, and all his power with him), to Hezekiah king of Judah, and to all Judah who 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 says Sennacherib king of Assyria, "In whom do you trust, that you remain under siege 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.
Doesn't Hezekiah persuade you, to give you over to die by famine and by thirst, saying, 'YHWH our God will deliver us out of the hand 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?
Hasn't the same Hezekiah taken away his high places and his altars, and commanded Judah and Jerusalem, saying, 'You shall worship before one altar, and on it you shall 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?
Do you not know what I and my fathers have done to all the peoples of the lands? Were the gods of the nations of the lands in any way 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 was there among all the gods of those nations which my fathers utterly destroyed, that could 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?
Now therefore do not let Hezekiah deceive you, nor persuade you in this way, neither believe him; for no god of any nation or kingdom was able to deliver his people out of my hand, and out of the hand of my fathers. How much less will your God deliver you out of my hand?"
16 A olelo ino hou aku kana poe kauwa ia Iehova, ke Akua, a ia Hezekia kana kauwa.
His servants spoke yet more against YHWH 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 also wrote letters insulting YHWH, the God of Israel, and to speak against him, saying, "As the gods of the nations of the lands, which have not delivered their people out of my hand, so shall 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.
They cried with a loud voice in the Jews' language to the people of Jerusalem who were on the wall, to frighten them, and to trouble them; that they might take 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.
They spoke of the God of Jerusalem, as of the gods of the peoples of the earth, which are the work of men's hands.
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.
Hezekiah the king, and Isaiah the prophet the son of Amoz, prayed because of this, and 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.
YHWH sent an angel, who cut off all the mighty men of valor, and the leaders and captains, in the camp of the king of Assyria. So he returned with shame of face to his own land. When he had come into the house of his god, some of his own offspring killed 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 YHWH saved Hezekiah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem from the hand of Sennacherib the king of Assyria, and from the hand of all others, and gave them rest 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.
Many brought gifts to YHWH to Jerusalem, and precious things to Hezekiah king of Judah; so that he was exalted in the sight of all nations from thenceforth.
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 Hezekiah was sick even to death: and he prayed to YHWH; and he spoke to him, and gave him a sign.
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 Hezekiah did not render again according to the benefit done to him; for his heart was lifted up: therefore there was wrath on him, and on 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.
Notwithstanding Hezekiah humbled himself for the pride of his heart, both he and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so that the wrath of YHWH did not come on 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;
Hezekiah had a very great amount of riches and honor: and he provided him treasuries for silver, and for gold, and for precious stones, and for spices, and for shields, and for all kinds of goodly 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.
storehouses also for the increase of grain and new wine and oil; and stalls for all kinds of animals, and flocks in folds.
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 provided him cities, and possessions of flocks and herds in abundance; for God had given him very much substance.
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 the upper spring of the waters of Gihon, and brought them straight down on the west side of the City of David. 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.
However concerning the ambassadors of the princes of Babylon, who sent to him to inquire of the wonder that was done in the land, God left him, to try him, that he might 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.
Now the rest of the acts of Hezekiah, and his good deeds, look, they are written in the vision of Isaiah the prophet the son of Amoz, 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.
Hezekiah slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the ascent of the tombs of the sons of David: and all Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem did him honor at his death. Manasseh his son reigned in his place.
