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.

And it cometh to pass, in the third year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel, reigned hath Hezekiah son of Ahaz king of Judah;

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.

a son of twenty and five years was he in his reigning, and twenty and nine years he hath reigned in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother [is] Abi 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.

And he doth that which [is] right in the eyes of Jehovah, according to all that David his father did,

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 hath turned aside the high places, and broken in pieces the standing-pillars, and cut down the shrine, and beaten down the brazen serpent that Moses made, for unto these days were the sons of Israel making perfume to it, and he calleth it 'a piece of brass.'

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.

In Jehovah, God of Israel, he hath trusted, and after him there hath not been like him among all the kings of Judah, nor [among any] who 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.

and he cleaveth to Jehovah, he hath not turned aside from after Him, and keepeth His commands that Jehovah 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.

And Jehovah hath been with him, in every place where he goeth out he acteth wisely, and he rebelleth against the king of Asshur, and hath not served 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 hath smitten the Philistines unto Gaza, and its borders, from a tower of watchers unto the fenced 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.

And it cometh to pass, in the fourth year of king Hezekiah — it [is] the seventh year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel — come up hath Shalmaneser king of Asshur against Samaria, and layeth siege to 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.

and they capture it at the end of three years; in the sixth year of Hezekiah — it [is] the ninth year of Hoshea king of Israel — hath Samaria been captureth,

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.

and the king of Asshur removeth Israel to Asshur, and placed them in Halah, and in Habor [by] the river Gozan, and [in] 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 that they have not hearkened to the voice of Jehovah their God, and transgress His covenant — all that He commanded Moses, servant of Jehovah — yea, they have not hearkened nor done [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.

And in the fourteenth year of king Hezekiah hath Sennacherib king of Asshur come up against all the fenced cities of Judah, and seizeth 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.

and Hezekiah king of Judah sendeth unto the king of Asshur to Lachish, saying, 'I have sinned, turn back from off me; that which thou puttest on me I bear;' and the king of Asshur layeth on 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.

and Hezekiah giveth all the silver that is found in the house of Jehovah, and in the treasures of the house of the king;

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 hath Hezekiah cut off the doors of the temple of Jehovah, and the pillars that Hezekiah king of Judah had overlaid, and giveth them to the king of Asshur.

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.

And the king of Asshur sendeth Tartan, and the chief of the eunuchs, and the chief of the butlers, from Lachish, unto king Hezekiah, with a heavy force, to Jerusalem, and they go up and come in to Jerusalem, and they go up, and come in and stand by the conduit of the upper pool that [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.

And they call unto the king, and go out unto them doth Eliakim son of Hilkiah, who [is] over the house, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah son of Asaph the remembrancer.

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?

And the chief of the butlers saith unto them, 'Say, I pray you, unto Hezekiah, Thus said the great king, the king of Asshur, What [is] this confidence in which thou hast confided?

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?

Thou hast said: Only a word of the lips! counsel and might [are] for battle; now, on whom hast thou trusted that thou hast 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, lo, thou hast trusted for thee on the staff of this broken reed, on Egypt; which a man leaneth on, and it hath gone into his hand, and pierced it! — so [is] Pharaoh king of Egypt to all those trusting 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?

'And when ye say unto me, Unto Jehovah our God we have trusted, is it not He whose high places and whose altars Hezekiah hath turned aside, and saith to Judah and to Jerusalem, Before this altar do ye bow yourselves 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.

'And, now, give a pledge for thee, I pray thee, to my lord the king of Asshur, and I give to thee two thousand horses, if thou art able to give for thee 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?

And how dost thou turn back the face of one captain of the least of the servants of my lord, that thou dost trust for thee on Egypt for chariot, 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.

Now, without Jehovah have I come up against this place to destroy it? Jehovah said unto me, Go up against this land, and thou hast destroyed 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.

And Eliakim son of Hilkiah saith — and Shebna, and Joah — to the chief of the butlers, 'Speak, we pray thee, unto thy servants [in] Aramaean, for we are understanding, and do not speak with us [in] Jewish, in the ears 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?

And the chief of the butlers saith unto them, 'For thy lord, and unto thee, hath my lord sent me to speak these words? is it not for the men, those sitting on the wall to eat their own dung and to drink their own water, 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.

And the chief of the butlers standeth and calleth with a great voice [in] Jewish, and speaketh and saith, 'Hear ye a word of the great king, the king of Asshur:

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.

thus said the king, Let not Hezekiah lift you up, for he is not 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.

and let not Hezekiah make you trust unto Jehovah, saying, Jehovah doth certainly deliver us, and this city is not given into the hand of the king of Asshur.

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;

'Do not hearken unto Hezekiah, for thus said the king of Asshur, Make with me a blessing, and come out unto me, and eat ye each of his vine, and each of his fig-tree, and drink ye each the waters of his own well,

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.

till my coming in, and I have taken you unto a land like your own land, a land of corn and new wine, a land of bread and vineyards, a land of oil olive, and honey, and live, and die not; and do not hearken unto Hezekiah, when he persuadeth you, saying, Jehovah doth 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?

'Have the gods of the nations delivered at all each his land out of the hand of the king of Asshur?

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 Arpad? where the gods of Sepharvaim, Hena, and Ivvah, that they have 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] among all the gods of the lands that have delivered their land out of my hand, that Jehovah doth 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.

And the people have kept silent, and have not answered him a word, for the command of the king is, saying, 'Do not 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.

And Eliakim son of Hilkiah, who [is] over the house, cometh in, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah son of Asaph the remembrancer, unto Hezekiah, with rent garments, and they declare to him the words of the chief of the butlers.
