II Na Lii 18
1 A I ke kolu o ka makahiki o Hosea ke keiki a Ela, ke alii o ka Iseraela, i noho alii ai o Hezekia, ke keiki a Ahaza, ke alii o ka Iuda.
Now in the third year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel, Hezekiah the son of Ahaz king of Judah began to reign.
2 He iwakaluakumamalima na makahiki ona i kona wa i lilo ai i alii, a he iwakaluakumamaiwa na makahiki ana i alii ai ma Ierusalema. A o Abi ka inoa o kona makuwahine, ke kaikamahine a Zekaria.
He was twenty-five years old when he began to reign, and he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Abi the daughter of Zechariah.
3 A hana pono aku la ia imua o Iehova, e like me na mea a pau a Davida kona kupuna i hana'i.
He did that which was right in the LORD’s eyes, according to all that David his father had done.
4 A lawe aku la ia i na heiau, wawahi iho la i na kii, a kua aku la i na kii o Aseterota, a ulupa iho la i ka nahesa keleawe a Mose i hana'i: no ka mea, a hiki i keia wa, ua kuni na mamo a Iseraela i ka mea ala ia ia, a kapa aku la kela ia mea, Nehusetana.
He removed the high places, broke the pillars, and cut down the Asherah. He also broke in pieces the bronze serpent that Moses had made, because in those days the children of Israel burnt incense to it; and he called it Nehushtan.
5 Hilinai iho la ia maluna o Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela; a mahope ona, noho alii e like me ia o na'lii a pau o ka Iuda, aole hoi mamua ona.
He trusted in the LORD, the God of Israel, so that after him was no one like him amongst all the kings of Judah, nor amongst them that were before him.
6 No ka mea, hoopili aku oia ia Iehova, aole ia i haalele i ka hahai ana ia ia, aka, malama no ia i na kauoha a Iehova i kauoha mai ai ia Mose.
For he joined with the LORD. He didn’t depart from following him, but kept his commandments, which the LORD commanded Moses.
7 A o Iehova pu kekahi me ia, a ua pomaikai no ia i na wahi a pau ana i hele aku ai: a kipi aku la ia i ke alii o Asuria, aole ia i malama aku ia ia.
The LORD was with him. Wherever he went, he prospered. He rebelled against the king of Assyria, and didn’t serve him.
8 Luku aku la ia i ko Pilisetia, a hiki i Gaza, a me kolaila mau mokuna, mai ka puukaua o ka poe kiai, a hiki i ke kulanakauhale paa i ka papohaku.
He struck the Philistines to Gaza and its borders, from the tower of the watchmen to the fortified city.
9 A i ka ha o ka makahiki o Hezekia, oia ka hiku o ka makahiki o Hosea, ke keiki a Ela, ke alii o ka Iseraela, hele ku e mai o Salemanesera, ke alii o Asuria, i Samaria, a hoopilikia ia ia.
In the fourth year of King Hezekiah, which was the seventh year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel, Shalmaneser king of Assyria came up against Samaria and besieged it.
10 A pau na makahiki ekolu, hoopio lakou ia ia, i ke ono o ka makahiki o Hezekia, oia ka iwa o ka makahiki o Hosea ke alii o ka Iseraela, ua hoopioia o Samaria.
At the end of three years they took it. In the sixth year of Hezekiah, which was the ninth year of Hoshea king of Israel, Samaria was taken.
11 A lawe pio aku la ke alii o Asuria i ka Iseraela, a hoonoho ia lakou ma Hala, a ma Habora ma ka muliwai o Gosana, a ma na kulanakauhale o ko Media.
The king of Assyria carried Israel away to Assyria, and put them in Halah, and on the Habor, the river of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes,
12 No ka mea, aole lakou i hoolohe i ka leo o Iehova ko lakou Akua, a ua hai ia lakou kana berita, a me na mea a pau a Mose, ke kauwa a Iehova, i kauoha mai ai, aole lakou i malama, aole hoi i hana.
because they didn’t obey the LORD their God’s voice, but transgressed his covenant, even all that Moses the servant of the LORD commanded, and would not hear it or do it.
13 A i ka umikumamaha o ka makahiki o Hezekia ke alii, hele ku e mai o Senakeriba, ke alii o Asuria, i na kulanakauhale a pau o ka Iuda, i paa i ka papohaku, a hoopio iho la ia lakou.
Now in the fourteenth year of King Hezekiah, Sennacherib king of Assyria came up against all the fortified cities of Judah and took them.
14 A hoouna aku la o Hezekia, ke alii o ka Iuda, i ke alii o Suria ma Lakisa, i aku la, Ua hana hewa au: e hoi oe mai o'u aku la; a o ka mea au e kau mai maluna o'u, na'u no ia e hali. A kau mai ke alii o Asuria maluna o Hezekia, ke alii o ka Iuda, i ekolu haneri talena kala, a i kanakolu talena gula.
Hezekiah king of Judah sent to the king of Assyria at Lachish, saying, “I have offended you. Withdraw from me. That which you put on me, I will bear.” The king of Assyria appointed to Hezekiah king of Judah three hundred talents of silver and thirty talents of gold.
15 Haawi aku la o Hezekia i ke kala a pau i loaa ma ka hale o Iehova, a ma ka waihona kala o ka halo o ke alii.
Hezekiah gave him all the silver that was found in the LORD’s house and in the treasures of the king’s house.
16 A ia manawa hemo aku la o Hezekia i ke gula ma na pani puka o ka luakini o Iehova, a ma na lapauwila a Hezekia ke alii o ka Iuda i kau ai, a haawi aku la oia ia mau mea i ke alii o Asuria.
At that time, Hezekiah cut off the gold from the doors of the LORD’s temple, and from the pillars which Hezekiah king of Judah had overlaid, and gave it to the king of Assyria.
17 A hoouna mai la ke alii o Asuria ia Taretana, a ia Rabesarisa, a me Rabesake mai Lakisa aku io Hezekia la ke alii, me ka poe kaua nui i Ierusalema. Pii ae la lakou, a hele mai i Ierusalema. A i ko lakou pii ana, hele mai lakou a ku ma ke kahawai o ka loko maluna ma ke ala o ke kihapai o ka mea holoi.
The king of Assyria sent Tartan, Rabsaris, and Rabshakeh from Lachish to King Hezekiah with a great army to Jerusalem. They went up and came to Jerusalem. When they had come up, they came and stood by the conduit of the upper pool, which is in the highway of the fuller’s field.
18 A i ko lakou kahea ana'ku i ke alii, hele mai io lakou la o Eliakima, ke keiki a Hilekia, ka luna o ko ka hale, a o Sebena, ke kakauolelo, a me Ioa ke keiki a Asapa ke kakaumooolelo.
When they had called to the king, Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, who was over the household, and Shebnah the scribe, and Joah the son of Asaph the recorder came out to them.
19 I mai la o Rabesake ia lakou, E olelo aku oukou ano ia Hezekia, Penei ka olelo a ke alii nui, ke alii o Asuria, Heaha keia hilinai au e hilinai nei?
Rabshakeh said to them, “Say now to Hezekiah, ‘The great king, the king of Assyria, says, “What confidence is this in which you trust?
20 Ke i mai nei oe, (aka, he olelo a na lehelehe wale no, ) He ike ko'u, a he ikaika hoi no ke kaua. Ano, ea, maluna owai kau e hilinai nei, i kipi mai ai oe ia'u?
You say (but they are but vain words), ‘There is counsel and strength for war.’ Now on whom do you trust, that you have rebelled against me?
21 Ano hoi, ke hilinai nei oe maluna o ke kookoo o keia ohe pepe, maluna o Aigupita, ka mea a ke kanaka e hilinai, e komo no ia iloko o kona lima, a puka iho la: pela no o Parao i ka poe a pau e hilinai ana maluna ona.
Now, behold, you trust in the staff of this bruised reed, even in Egypt. If a man leans on it, it will go into his hand and pierce it. So is Pharaoh king of Egypt to all who trust on him.
22 A ina e olelo mai oukou ia'u, Ke hilinai nei makou maluna o Iehova ko makou Akua: aole anei oia ka mea, nona na heiau, a nona hoi na kuahu a Hezekia i lawe aku ai, a i olelo aku i ka Iuda, a me ko Ierusalema, Imua o keia kuahu i Ierusalema nei oukou e kulou ai?
But if you tell me, ‘We trust in the LORD our God,’ isn’t that he whose high places and whose altars Hezekiah has taken away, and has said to Judah and to Jerusalem, ‘You shall worship before this altar in Jerusalem’?
23 Ano hoi, ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e haawi mai i nku panai na kuu haku, na ke alii o Asuria, a e haawi aku au ia oe i elua tausani lio, ina e hiki ia oe ke kau aku i na hoohololio maluna o lakou.
Now therefore, please give pledges to my master the king of Assyria, and I will give you two thousand horses if you are able on your part to set riders on them.
24 A pehea la oe e hoohuli ae i ka maka o kekahi luna o na kauwa uuku a kuu haku, a hilinai ae maluna o Aigupita no na halekaa, a no na hoohololio?
How then can you turn away the face of one captain of the least of my master’s servants, and put your trust on Egypt for chariots and for horsemen?
25 Ano hoi, ua hele wale mai anei an, aole o Iehova kekahi, e ku e i keia wahi e luku aku ai? O Iehova ka i olelo mai ia'u, E pii ku e oe i keia wahi, a e luku aku ia.
Have I now come up without the LORD against this place to destroy it? The LORD said to me, ‘Go up against this land, and destroy it.’”’”
26 Alaila i aku la o Eliakima ke keiki a Hilekia, a o Sebena a me Ioa, ia Rabesake, Ke noi aku nei au, e olelo mai oe i kau mau kauwa ma ka olelo a Suria, no ka mea, ua ike makou ia: a mai olelo mai oe ia makou ma ka Iudaio iloko o na pepeiao o na kanaka maluna o ka papohaku.
Then Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, Shebnah, and Joah, said to Rabshakeh, “Please speak to your servants in the Syrian language, for we understand it. Don’t speak with us in the Jews’ language, in the hearing of the people who are on the wall.”
27 I mai la o Rabesake ia lakou, Ua hoouna mai anei kuu haku ia'u e olelo aku i keia mau olelo i kou haku, a ia oe wale no? aole anei i na kanaka kekahi e noho ana maluna o ka papohaku, e ai pu ai lakou me oukou i ko lakou lepo iho, a e inu hoi i ko lakou waimimi?
But Rabshakeh said to them, “Has my master sent me to your master and to you, to speak these words? Hasn’t he sent me to the men who sit on the wall, to eat their own dung, and to drink their own urine with you?”
28 A ku ae la o Rabesake, a kahea aku la me ka leo nui, ma ka Iudaio, a olelo aku, i aku la, E hoolohe i ka olelo a ke alii nui, ke alii o Asuria.
Then Rabshakeh stood and cried with a loud voice in the Jews’ language, and spoke, saying, “Hear the word of the great king, the king of Assyria.
29 Ke olelo mai nei ke alii peneia, E malama o hoopunipuniia oukou e Hezekia: no ka mea, aole e hiki ia ia ke hoopakele ia oukou mai kona lima mai.
The king says, ‘Don’t let Hezekiah deceive you, for he will not be able to deliver you out of his hand.
30 A mai hoolana o Hezekia ia oukou maluna o Iehova, i ka i ana 'ku, He oiaio, na Iehova kakou e hoopakele, aole e hooliloia keia kulanakauhale iloko o ka lima o ke alii o Asuria.
Don’t let Hezekiah make you trust in the LORD, saying, “The LORD will surely deliver us, and this city shall not be given into the hand of the king of Assyria.”
31 Mai hoolohe oukou ia Hezekia: no ka mea, ke olelo mai nei ke alii o Asuria peneia, E hana oukou i haawina na'u, a e hele mai oukou iwaho io'u nei, alaila e ai oukou, o kela kanaka keia kanaka i kona huawaina iho, a o kela kanaka keia kanaka i kona huafiku iho, a e inu oukou, o kela kanaka keia kanaka i ka wai o kana lua iho;
Don’t listen to Hezekiah.’ For the king of Assyria says, ‘Make your peace with me, and come out to me; and everyone of you eat from his own vine, and everyone from his own fig tree, and everyone drink water from his own cistern;
32 A hiki mai au, a e lawe aku ia oukou i ka aina e like me ko oukou aina, he aina palaoa, a me ka waina, he aina berena, a me na pawaina, he aina aila oliva, a me ka meli, i ola oukou, aole hoi e make: a mai hoolohe oukou ia Hezekia, no ka mea, ke hoowalewale mai nei ia ia oukou, i ka i ana mai, Na Iehova kakou e hoopakele.
until I come and take you away to a land like your own land, a land of grain and new wine, a land of bread and vineyards, a land of olive trees and of honey, that you may live and not die. Don’t listen to Hezekiah when he persuades you, saying, “The LORD will deliver us.”
33 Ua hoopakele iki anei kekahi o na akua o na lahuikanaka e i kona aina mai ka lima mai o ke alii o Asuria?
Has any of the gods of the nations ever delivered his land out of the hand of the king of Assyria?
34 Auhea na akua o Hamata, a o Arepada? auhea na akua o Separevaima, o Hena, a me Iva? Ua hoopakele anei lakou ia Samaria mai ko'u lima aku?
Where are the gods of Hamath and of Arpad? Where are the gods of Sepharvaim, of Hena, and Ivvah? Have they delivered Samaria out of my hand?
35 Owai la ka mea o na akua a pau o na aina, nana i hoopakele ko lakou aina mai kuu lima aku, i hoopakele mai ai o Iehova ia Ierusalema mai kuu lima aku?
Who are they amongst all the gods of the countries, that have delivered their country out of my hand, that the LORD should deliver Jerusalem out of my hand?’”
36 Aka, noho malie iho la na kanaka aole lakou i pane leo iki aku ia ia: no ka mea, oia ke kauoha a ke alii, i ka i ana ae, Mai olelo aku ia ia.
But the people stayed quiet, and answered him not a word; for the king’s commandment was, “Don’t answer him.”
37 Alaila hele mai o Eliakima, ke keiki a Hilekia, ka luna o ko ka hale, a o Sebena ke kakanolelo, a o Ioa ke keiki a Asapa ke kakaumooolelo, ia Hezekia, me na aahu i haehaeia, a hai mai ia ia i na olelo a Rabesake.
Then Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, who was over the household, came with Shebna the scribe and Joah the son of Asaph the recorder to Hezekiah with their clothes torn, and told him Rabshakeh’s words.
