< II Na Lii 13 >

1 I KA makahiki iwakalua kumamakolu o Ioasa ke keiki a Ahazia ke alii o ka Iuda, i lilo ai o Iehoahaza, ke keiki a Iehu, i alii maluna o ka Iseraela ma Samaria, he umikumamahiku na makahiki o kona alii ana.
Jehoahaz, son of Jehu, became king of Israel in the twenty-third year of the reign of Joash, son of Ahaziah, king of Judah. He reigned in Samaria for seventeen years.
2 A hana ino aku la ia imua o Iehova, a hele aku la ia mamuli o ka hewa o Ieroboama ke keiki a Nebata, nana i hoolilo ka Iseraela i ka hewa; aole ia i haalele ia mea.
He did what was evil in the Lord's sight, and followed the sins that Jeroboam son of Nebat, had made Israel commit; he did not end them.
3 A hoaia ka inaina o Iehova i ka Iseraela, a haawi aku la ia ia lakou iloko o ka lima o Hazaela, ke alii o Suria, a iloko o ka lima o Benehadada, he keiki a Hazaela i na la a pau.
So the Lord was angry with Israel, and he repeatedly allowed them to be defeated by Hazael, king of Aram, and his son Ben-hadad.
4 A nonoi aku la o Iehoahaza ia Iehova, a hoolohe mai o Iehova ia ia: no kona ike ana i ke kaumaha o ka Iseraela, no ka mea, ua hookaumaha ke alii o Suria ia lakou.
Jehoahaz asked the Lord for help, and the Lord responded to his request because he saw how badly the king of Aram was treating Israel.
5 (A haawi mai la o Iehova i ka Iseraela i mea e pakele ai, a puka aku lakou mai lalo mai o ka lima o ko Suria: a noho iho la na mamo a Iseraela ma ko lakou halelewa, e like me ka manawa mamua.
The Lord gave Israel someone who would save them so they no longer were under Aramean rule. Then the Israelites were able to go back to living in safety as before.
6 Aka, aole lakou i huli mai mai ka hewa mai o ko ka hale o Ieroboama, nana i hoolilo ka Iseraela i ka hewa, aka, hahai no lakou malaila: a e waiho ana hoi o Asetarota ma Samaria.)
Even so they did not end the sins that the house of Jeroboam had made Israel commit—they continued to follow them. The Asherah idol still stood in Samaria.
7 A i waiho iho la ia i na kanaka no Iehoahaza, he kanalima hoohololio, he umi na halekaa, a he umi tausani koa hele wawae wale no; no ka mea, ua luku aku ke alii o Suria ia lakou, a ua hoolike aku ia lakou me ka lepo no ka hehi ana.
All that was left of Jehoahaz's army were fifty horsemen, ten chariots, and ten thousand soldiers, for the king of Aram had destroyed the rest, turning them into dust like that when grain is threshed.
8 A o na hana i koe a Iehoahaza, a o na mea a pau ana i hana'i, a me kona ikaika, aole anei i kakauia lakou iloko o ka buke oihanaalii a na'lii o ka Iseraela?
The rest of what happened in Jehoahaz's reign, all he did, and his great achievements are recorded in the Book of Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.
9 A hiamoe iho la o Iehoahaza me kona poe kupuna; a kanu iho la lakou ia ia ma Samaria: a o Ioasa kana keiki, nohoalii iho la ia ma kona wahi.
Jehoahaz died and was buried in Samaria. His son Jehoash succeeded him as king.
10 I ka makahiki kanakolukumamahiku o Ioasa ke alii o ka Iuda, i lilo ai o Iehoasa, ke keiki a Iehoahaza, i alii maluna o ka Iseraela ma Samaria, a he umikumamaono na makahiki o kona alii ana.
Jehoash, son of Jehoahaz, became king of Israel in Samaria in the thirty-seventh year of the reign of King Joash of Judah, and he reigned for sixteen years.
11 A hana ino aku la ia imua o Iehova, aole ia i haalele i na hewa a pau o Ieroboama ke keiki a Nebata, nana i hoolilo ka Iseraela i ka hewa; aka, hele no ia malaila.
He did what was evil in the Lord's sight and did not end all the sins that Jeroboam, son of Nebat, had made Israel commit—he continued to follow them.
12 A o na hana i koe o Ioasa, a o na mea a pau ana i hana'i, a me kona ikaika ana i kana aku ai ia Amazia ke alii o ka Iuda, aole anei i kakauia lakou iloko o ka buke oihanaalii a na'lii o ka Iseraela?
The rest of what happened in Jehoash's reign, all he did, and his great achievements such as his war against Amaziah, king of Judah, are recorded in the Book of Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.
13 A hiamoe iho la o Ioasa me kona poe kupuna; a noho iho la o Ieroboama maluna o kona nohoalii: a kanuia iho la o Ioasa ma Samaria me na'lii o ka Iseraela.
Jehoash died, and Jeroboam sat on his throne. Jehoash was buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel.
14 A mai iho la o Elisai, o kona mai ia i make ai. A iho mai o Ioasa, ke alii o ka Iseraela io na la, a auwe iho la maluna o kona maka, i aku la, E kuu makua, e kuu makua, o ka halekaa o ka Iseraela a me na hoohololio ona.
Elisha had become ill with a disease that would eventually kill him. Jehoash, king of Israel, went to visit him, and wept over him, saying, “My father, my father, the chariots and the horsemen of Israel!”
15 I aka la o Elisai ia ia, E lawe i kikoo a me na pua. A lawe ae la ia nona i kikoo a me na pua.
Elisha told him, “Find a bow and some arrows.” So Jehoash found a bow and some arrows.
16 I aku la ia i ke alii o ka Iseraela, E kau aku i kou lima maluna o ke kikoo. A kau iho la ia i kona lima; a kau aku la o Elisai i kona mau lima maluna o na lima o ke alii.
Then Elisha said to the king of Israel, “Pick up the bow.” So the king picked up the bow. Elisha placed his hands on the king's hands.
17 I aku la ia, E wehe ae i ka pukamakani ma ka hikina. A wehe ae la ia. Alaila i aku la o Elisai, E pana aku: a pana aku la ia. I aku la ia, O ka pua hoola no Iehova, a o ka pua hoola mai ko Suria mai: no ka mea, e pepehi auanei oe i ko Suria ma Apeka, a pau i ka lukuia.
“Open the east window,” he told him. So the king opened it and Elisha said, “Shoot!” So he fired an arrow. Then Elisha explained, “This is the Lord's victory arrow representing the arrow of victory over the Arameans. You will attack the Arameans in Aphek and finish them off.”
18 I aku la ia, E lawe i na pua. A lawe iho la no ia. I aku la ia i ke alii o ka Iseraela, E hahau i ka honus. A hahau iho la ia, ekolu hahau ana, a oki.
Then Elisha said, “Pick up the arrows!” So he picked them up. Elisha told the king of Israel, “Hit the ground with them!” He hit the ground three times, and then stopped.
19 A huhu aku la ke kanaka o ke Akua ia ia, i aku la, O kau pono no, i elima, a i eono paha hahau ana, alaila ua hahau iho oe i ko Suria, a pau i ka lukuia: aka, ano, e hahau aku oe i ko Suria i ekolu hahau ana wale no.
The man of God got angry with him, telling him, “You should have hit the ground five or six times. Then you would have attacked the Arameans until you had completely destroyed them. But now you will only attack the Arameans three times.”
20 A make iho la o Elisai, a kanu iho la lakou ia ia. A hele mai ka poe hao wale o ka Moaba i ka aina, i ka hiki ana mai o ka makahiki.
Elisha died and was buried. Raiders from the country of Moab used to invade Israel every spring.
21 A i ko lakou kanu ana i kekahi kanaka, aia hoi, ike aku la lakou i ka poe hao wale, hoolei aku la lakou i ke kanaka iloko o ka halelua o Elisai; a i ka iho ana o ke kanaka a pili i na iwi o Elisai, ola mai la ia, a ku maluna o kona wawae.
On time some Israelites were burying a man when suddenly they saw some raiders coming, so they quickly threw the man into Elisha's tomb. As soon as he touched Elisha's bones, the man came back to life and stood up.
22 A o Hazaela ko alii o Suria, hookaumaha aku la ia i ka Iseraela i na la a pau o Iehoahaza.
Hazael, king of Aram, caused problems for Israel through all Jehoahaz's reign.
23 A manao mai o Iehova ia lakou, a ahonui mai ia lakou, a nana mai ia lakou no kana berita ia Aberahama, ia Isaaka, a me Iakoha, aole ona makemake e luku aku ia lakou, aole hoi e hookuke aku ia lakou mai kona alo aku i keia manawa.
But the Lord graciously helped them and was kind to them. He looked after them because of his agreement with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Even to this day he's been unwilling to destroy them or to throw them out of his presence.
24 A make aku la o Hazaela ke alii o Suria; a noho alii iho la o Benehadada, kana keiki, ma kona hakahaka.
When Hazael, king of Aram, died, his son Ben-hadad succeeded him as king.
25 A hoi aku la o Iehoaza ke keiki a Iehoahaza, a lawe aku la i na kulanakauhale mai ka lima aku o Benehadada, ke keiki a Hazaela, i ka mea ana i lawe ae mai ka lima aku o Iehoahaza kona makuakane ma ke kaua ana. Lanakila aku la o Ioasa maluna ona, ekolu no lanakila ana, a hoihoi mai ia i na kulanakauhale o ka Iseraela.
Then Jehoash, son of Jehoahaz, recovered from Ben-hadad son of Hazael, the towns that Hazael had captured from his father Jehoahaz. Jehoash defeated Ben-hadad three times, and so recaptured the Israelite towns.
