II Na Lii 16
1 I KA makahiki nmikumamahiku o Peka ke keiki a Remalia, i lilo ai o Ahaza, ke keiki a Iotama, ke alii o ka Iuda, i alii.
In the seventeenth year of Pekah son of Remaliah, Ahaz son of Jotham became king of Judah.
2 He iwakalua na makahiki o Ahaza i kona wa i lilo ai i alii, a he umikumamaono na makahiki ana i alii ai ma Ierusalema; aole ia i hana pono imua o Iehova kona Akua, e like me Davida kona kupuna.
Ahaz was twenty years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem sixteen years. And unlike David his father, he did not do what was right in the eyes of the LORD his God.
3 Aka, hele no ia ma ka aoao o na'lii o ka Iseraela, a hoohelo aku hoi i kana keiki iloko o ke ahi, e like me na mea hoowahawahaia o na lahuikanaka a Iehova i kipaku ae mai ke alo aku o na mamo a Iseraela.
Instead, he walked in the ways of the kings of Israel and even sacrificed his son in the fire, according to the abominations of the nations that the LORD had driven out before the Israelites.
4 A kaumaha aku no hoi a kuni i ka mea ala ma na heiau, a ma na pun, a malalo o na laau uliuli a pau.
And he sacrificed and burned incense on the high places, on the hills, and under every green tree.
5 Alaila hele mai o Rezina, ke alii o Suria, a me Peka ke keiki a Remalia, ke alii o ka Iseraela, i Ierusalema i ke kaua; a hoopilikia lakou ia Ahaza, aole e hiki ia lakou ke hoopio ia ia.
Then Rezin king of Aram and Pekah son of Remaliah king of Israel came up to wage war against Jerusalem. They besieged Ahaz but could not overcome him.
6 Ia manawa, hoihoi aku la o Rezina, ke alii o Suria, ia Elata no Suria, a kipaku aka la i na Iudaio mai Elata aku: a hele mai ko Suria i Elata, a noho ilaila a hiki i keia manawa.
At that time Rezin king of Aram recovered Elath for Aram, drove out the men of Judah, and sent the Edomites into Elath, where they live to this day.
7 A hoouna aku la o Ahaza i na elele ia Tigelatepilesera ke alii o Asuria, i aku la, Owau no kau kauwa, a o kau keiki hoi; e pii mai oe, a e hoopakele ia'u mai ka lima mai o ke alii o Suria, a mai ka lima mai o ke alii o ka Iseraela, e ku e mai ana ia'u.
So Ahaz sent messengers to Tiglath-pileser king of Assyria, saying, “I am your servant and your son. Come up and save me from the hands of the kings of Aram and Israel, who are rising up against me.”
8 A lawe aku la o Ahaza i ke kala a me ke gula i loaa ma ka hale o Iehova, a ma ka waihonakala o ka hale o ke alii, a hoouna aku la i makana no ke alii o Asuria.
Ahaz also took the silver and gold found in the house of the LORD and in the treasuries of the king’s palace, and he sent it as a gift to the king of Assyria.
9 A hoolohe mai ke alii o Asuria ia ia; a hele aku la ke alii o Asuria i Damaseko, a hoopio aku la ia, a lawe pio aku la i kolaila ma Kira, a pepehi aku la ia Rezina.
So the king of Assyria responded to him, marched up to Damascus, and captured it. He took its people to Kir as captives and put Rezin to death.
10 A hele aku la o Ahaza ke alii e halawai me Tigelatepilesera ke alii o Asuria ma Damaseko; a ike aku la ia i kekahi kuahu ma Damaseko; a hoouna aku la o Ahaza ke alii io Uriia la ke kahuna i ke ano o ke kuahu a me kana kii, e like me ka hana'na o ia mea a pau.
Then King Ahaz went to Damascus to meet Tiglath-pileser king of Assyria. On seeing the altar in Damascus, King Ahaz sent Uriah the priest a model of the altar and complete plans for its construction.
11 A hana aku la o Uriia ke kahuna i ke kuahu e like me ka mea a pau a Ahaza ke alii i hoouna aku ai mai Damaseko aku; pela o Uriia ke kahuna i hana'i i ka hoi ana mai o Ahaza ke alii mai Damaseko mai.
And Uriah the priest built the altar according to all the instructions King Ahaz had sent from Damascus, and he completed it by the time King Ahaz had returned.
12 A hiki mai ke alii mai Damaseko mai, ike aku la ke alii i ke kuahu, a hele aku la a kokoke i ke kuahu, a kaumaha aku maluna ona.
When the king came back from Damascus and saw the altar, he approached it and presented offerings on it.
13 A puhi aku la i ka mohaikuni, a me kana mohai ai, a ninini iho la i kana mohai inu, a kapipi i ke koko o kana mau mohai hoomalu maluna o ke kuahu.
He offered his burnt offering and his grain offering, poured out his drink offering, and sprinkled the blood of his peace offerings on the altar.
14 A lawe mai no hoi ia i ke kuahu keleawe imua o Iehova mai ke alo mai o ka hale, maiwaena mai o ke kuahu a o ka hale o Iehova, a waiho aku la ia mea ma ka aoao akau o ke kuahu.
He also took the bronze altar that stood before the LORD from the front of the temple (between the new altar and the house of the LORD) and he put it on the north side of the new altar.
15 A kauoha aku la o Ahaza ke alii ia Uriia ke kahuna, i aku la, Maluna o ke kuahu nui e puhi aku i ka mohaikuni kakahiaka, a me ka mohai ai o ke ahiahi, a me ka mohaikuni a ke alii, a me kana mohai ai, me ka mohaikuni a na kanaka a pau o ka aina, a me ka lakou mohai ai, a me ka lakou mohai inu; a e kapipi maluna ona i ke koko a pau o ka mohaikuni, a me ke koko a pau o ka mohai: a no'u ke kuahu keleawe e ninau aku ai.
Then King Ahaz commanded Uriah the priest, “Offer on the great altar the morning burnt offering, the evening grain offering, and the king’s burnt offering and grain offering, as well as the burnt offerings, grain offerings, and drink offerings of all the people of the land. Sprinkle on the altar all the blood of the burnt offerings and sacrifices. But I will use the bronze altar to seek guidance.”
16 A hana iho la o Uriia ke kahuna e like me na mea a pau a ke alii, a Ahaza i kauoha aku ai.
So Uriah the priest did just as King Ahaz had commanded.
17 A oki iho o Ahaza ke alii i na kihi o na kumu, a lawe aku i ka ipu holoi mai o lakou aku; a lawe ae la ia i ka ipu nui mai na bipi keleawe mai malalo iho ona, a kau iho la ia mea maluna o na pohaku i hoonohoia.
King Ahaz also cut off the frames of the movable stands and removed the bronze basin from each of them. He took down the Sea from the bronze oxen that were under it and put it on a stone base.
18 A o ka lanai no ka Sabati a lakou i kukulu ai ma ka hale, a o ke keena komo a ke alii mawaho, hoohuli ae la ia mai ka hale o Iehova aku no ke alii o Asuria.
And on account of the king of Assyria, he removed the Sabbath canopy they had built in the temple and closed the royal entryway outside the house of the LORD.
19 A o na hana i koe a Ahaza, o na mea ana i hana'i, aole anei i kakauia lakou iloko o ka buke oihanaalii a na'lii o ka Iuda?
As for the rest of the acts of Ahaz, along with his accomplishments, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?
20 A hiamoe iho la o Abaza me kona poe kupuna, a ua kanuia oia me kona poe kupuna ma ke kulanakauhale o Davida: a nobo alii iho la o Hezekia kana keiki ma kona hakahaka.
And Ahaz rested with his fathers and was buried with them in the City of David, and his son Hezekiah reigned in his place.
