< II Na Lii 12 >

1 A I ka hiku o ka makahiki o lehu, i lilo ai o Iehoasa i alii, a he kanaha na makahiki o kona alii ana ma Ierusalema; a o Zibia ka inoa o koua makuwahine no Beereseba.
In the seventh year of Jehu Joas began to reign: and he reigned forty years in Jerusalem. The name of his mother was Sebia of Bersabee.
2 A hana pono aku la o Iehoasa imua o Iehova i kona mau la a pau a Iehoiada a ke kahuna i ao mai ai ia ia.
And Joas did that which was right before the Lord all the days that Joiada the priest taught him.
3 Aka hoi, aole i laweia'ku na heiau: kaumaha aku la na kanaka, a kuni hoi i ka mea ala ma na heiau.
But yet he took not away the high places: for the people still sacrificed and burnt incense in the high places.
4 Olelo aku la o Iehoasa i na kahuna, O ke kala a pau o na mea i laa, ka mea i laweia mai iloko o ka hale o Iehova, o ke kala pono o kela kanaka keia kanaka, o ke kala o na kanaka ma ka auhau ana, o ke kala a pau a kela kanaka keia kanaka i manao ai e lawe mai iloko o ka hale o Iehova,
And Joas said to the priests: O All the money of the sanctified things, which is brought into the temple of the Lord by those that pass, which is offered for the price of a soul, and which of their own accord, and of their own free heart they bring into the temple of the Lord:
5 E lawe na kahuna, o kela kanaka keia kanaka ia mea no lakou, no kona hoalauna; a e hana hou lakou i kahi naha o ka hale, i na wahi naha a pau i loaa malaila.
Let the priests take it according to their order, and repair the house, wheresoever they shall see any thing that wanteth repairing.
6 A i ka makahiki iwakaluakumamakolu o Iehoasa, aole i hoopaa na kahuna i na wahi naha o ka hale.
Now till the three and twentieth year of king Joas, the priests did not make the repairs of the temple.
7 Alaila kahea aku la o Iehoasa ke alii ia Iehoiada ke kahuna a me na kahuna, i aku la ia lakou, No ke aha oukou i hoopaa ole ai i kahi naha o ka hale? Ano hoi, mai lawe hou oukou i ke kala o ko oukou hoalauna, aka, e haawi aku ia mea no kahi naha o ka hale.
And king Joas called Joiada the high priest and the priests, saying to them: Why do you not repair the temple? Take you therefore money no more according to your order, but restore it for the repairing of the temple.
8 Ae mai la na kahuna, aole e lawe hou lakou i ke kala o na kanaka, aole hoi e hana hou i kahi naha o ka hale.
And the priests were forbidden to take any more money of the people, and to make the repairs of the house.
9 Aka, lawe aku la o Iehoiada ke kahuna i kahi pahu, a wili iho la i puka ma kona pani, a waiho iho la ia mea kokoke i ke kuahu ma ka aoso akau i ka hele ana a ka kanaka iloko o ka hale o Iehova; a o na kahuna, nana i malama i ka paepae puka, hahao lakou iloko i ke kala a pau i laweia mai i ka hale o Iehova.
And Joiada the high priest took a chest and bored a hole in the top, and set it by the altar at the right hand of them that came into the house of the Lord, and the priests that kept the doors put therein all the money that was brought to the temple of the Lord.
10 A ike lakou, ua nui ke kala iloko o ka pahu, pii mai la ke kakauolelo o ke alii a me ke kahuna nui, a nakii iho la, a helu i ke kala i loaa iloko o ka hale o Iehova.
And when they saw that there was very much money in the chest, the king’s scribe and the high priest came up, and poured it out, and counted the money that was found in the house of the Lord:
11 A haawi lakou i ke kala i kaupaonaia ma ka lima o ka poe nana i hana ka hana, i na luna hoi o ka hale o Iehova: a na lakou i lawe ae i na kamana, a i ka poe paahana nana i hana ka hale o Iehova.
And they gave it out by number and measure into the hands of them that were over the builders of the house of the Lord: and they laid it out to the carpenters, and the masons that wrought in the house of the Lord,
12 A i ka poe hahao pohaku a i na kalaipohaku, a no ke kuai i ka laau, a me na pohaku i kalaiia, e hana hou i kahi naha o ka hale o Iehova, a no na mea a pau i lilo aku no ka hale o Iehova i ka hana hou ana.
And made the repairs: and to them that cut stones, and to buy timber, and stones, to be hewed, that the repairs of the house of the Lord might be completely finished, and wheresoever there was need of expenses to uphold the house.
13 Aole nae i hanaia no ka hale o Iehova na kiaha kala, na upakolikukui, na kiaha, na pu, a me kekahi kiaha gula, a me na kiaha kala, no ke kala i laweia mai i ka hale o Iehova.
But there were not made of the same money for the temple of the Lord, bowls, or fleshhooks, or censers, or trumpets, or any vessel of gold and silver, of the money that was brought into the temple of the Lord.
14 No ka mea, ua haawi aku lakou ia mea no ka poe paahana, a hana hou aku lakou me ia i ka hale o Iehova.
For it was given to them that did the work, that the temple of the Lord might be repaired.
15 Aole lakou i hookolokolo me na kanaka, nana i lawe ke kala e haawi aku i ka poe paahana; no ka mea, ma ka pono ka lakou hana ana.
And they reckoned not with the men that received the money to distribute it to the workmen, but they bestowed it faithfully.
16 O ke kala o ka mohai lawehala a me ke kala o ka mohaihala, aole i laweia mai iloko o ka hale o Iehova; na na kahuna no ia.
But the money for trespass, and the money for sins, they brought not into the temple of the Lord, because it was for the priests.
17 A hele mai o Hazaela ke alii o Suria, a kaua mai i Gata, a hoopio iho la ia: a manao iho la o Hazaela e pii i Ierusalema.
Then Hazael king of Syria went up and fought against Geth, and took it and set his face to go up to Jerusalem.
18 A lawe aku la o Iehoasa ke alii o ka Iuda i na mea a pau i hoolaaia, a Iehosapata, a me Iehorama, a me Ahazia, a kona mau makua, na'lii o ka Iuda i hoolaa ai, a me kona mau mea i hoolaaia, a me ke gula a pau i loaa maloko o ka waihona kala ma ka hale o Iehova, a me ka hale o ke alii, a hoouna aku la ia Hazaela ke alii o Suria; a hele aku ia mai Ierusalema aku.
Wherefore Joas king of Juda took all the sanctified things, which Josaphat, and Joram, and Ochozias his fathers the kings of Juda had dedicated to holy uses, and which he himself had offered: and all the silver that could be found in the treasures of the temple of the Lord, and in the king’s palace: and sent it to Hazael king of Syria, and he went off from Jerusalem.
19 A o na hana i koe a Ioasa, a o na mea a pau ana i hana'i, aole anei i kakauia lakou iloko o ka buke oihanaalii a na'lii o ka Iuda.
And the rest of the acts of Joas, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Juda?
20 A ku mai la kana mau kauwa, a kipi ae la, a pepehi aku la ia Ioasa ma Betemilo, e iho ana i Sila.
And his servants arose, and conspired among themselves, and slew Joas in the house of Mello in the descent of Sella.
21 No ka mea, o Iozakara ke keiki a Simeata, a o Iehozabada ke keiki a Somera, kana mau kauwa, pepehi aku laua ia ia, a make iho la ia; a kanu lakou ia ia me kona mau kupuna ma ke kulanakauhale o Davida: a noho alii iho la o Amazia kana keiki ma kona hakahaka.
For Josachar the son of Semaath, and Jozabad the son of Somer his servant struck him, and he died: and they buried him with his fathers in the city of David, and Amasias his son reigned in his stead.
