< II Na Lii 19 >

1 A LOHE ae la o Hezekia ke alii, haehae iho la ia i kona aahu, a hoouhi ia ia iho i ke kapa inoino, a komo aku la ia i ka hale o Iehova.
And it came to pass when king Hezekiah heard [it], that he rent his garments, and covered himself with sackcloth, and went into the house of Jehovah.
2 Hoouna aku la ia ia Eliakima ka luna o ko ka hale, a me Sebena, ke kakauolelo, a me ka poe kahiko o na kahuna i hoouhiia i na kapa inoino, io Isaia la ke kaula, ke keiki a Amoza.
And he sent Eliakim, who was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and the elders of the priests, covered with sackcloth, to the prophet Isaiah the son of Amoz.
3 I aku la lakou ia ia, Ke olelo mai nei o Hezekia peneia, O keia la, he la pilikia, poino a me ka hoowahawana: no ka mea, ua hiki mai ka manawa e hanau ai na keiki, aohe ikaika e hanau mai ai.
And they said to him, Thus says Hezekiah: This day is a day of trouble and of rebuke and of reviling; for the children are come to the birth, and there is not strength to bring forth.
4 Malia paha e hoolohe mai o Iehova kou Akua i na olelo a pau a Rabesake, ka mea a ke alii o Asuria kona haku i hoouna mai ai e hoino i ke Akua ola; a e ahewa aku i na olelo a Iehova kou Akua i lohe ai; nolaila e pule aku oe no ka poe i koe i loaa.
It may be Jehovah thy God will hear all the words of Rab-shakeh, whom the king of Assyria his master has sent to reproach the living God; and will rebuke the words which Jehovah thy God has heard. Therefore lift up a prayer for the remnant that is left.
5 A hiki aku na kauwa a Hezekia ke alii io Isaia la.
And the servants of king Hezekiah came to Isaiah.
6 I mai la o Isaia ia lakou, Penei oukou e olelo aku ai i ko oukou haku, Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova peneia, Mai makau oe i na olelo au i lohe ai, i ka mea a na kauwa a ke alii o Asuria i hoohiki ino mai ai ia'u.
And Isaiah said to them, Thus shall ye say to your master: Thus saith Jehovah: Be not afraid of the words that thou hast heard, wherewith the servants of the king of Assyria have blasphemed me.
7 Aia hoi, e hoouna au i makani io na la, a e lohe no ia i ka lono, a hoi aku i kona aina; a e hoohaule iho au ia ia i ka pahikaua ma kona aina iho.
Behold, I will put a spirit into him, and he shall hear tidings, and shall return to his own land; and I will make him to fall by the sword in his own land.
8 A hoi aku o Rabesake, a loaa ia ia ke alii o Asuria e kana ana i ko Lebena, no ka mea, ua lohe ia, ua haalele oia i Lakisa.
And Rab-shakeh returned, and found the king of Assyria warring against Libnah; for he had heard that he had departed from Lachish.
9 A lohe ia no Tirehaka ke alii o Aitiopa, i ka i ana ae, Aia hoi, ua hele mai ia e kaua mai ia oe: a hoouna hou aku la ia i na elele io Hezekia la, i aku la,
And he heard say of Tirhakah king of Ethiopia, Behold, he has come forth to make war with thee. And he sent messengers again to Hezekiah, saying,
10 Penei oukou e olelo aku ai ia Hezekia ke alii o ka Iuda, e i aku, E malama o hoopunipuniia oe e kou Akua au i hilinai ai, i ka i ana'e, Aole e haawiia o Ierusalema iloko o ka lima o ke alii o ko Asuria.
Thus shall ye speak to Hezekiah king of Judah saying: Let not thy God, upon whom thou reliest, deceive thee, saying, Jerusalem shall not be delivered into the hand of the king of Assyria.
11 Aia hoi, ua lohe no oe i ka mea a na'lii o Asuria i hana aku ai i na aina a pau, ma ka luku loa ana ia lakou: a e hoopakeleia anei oe?
Behold, thou hast heard what the kings of Assyria have done to all countries, destroying them utterly; and shalt thou be delivered?
12 Ua hoopakele anei na akua o na lahuikanaka ia lakou, i na mea a ko'u mau makua i luku ai: i Gozana, i Harama, i Rezepa, a me na kanaka o Edena, ka poe ma Telasara?
Have the gods of the nations which my fathers have destroyed delivered them: Gozan, and Haran, and Rezeph, and the children of Eden that were in Thelassar?
13 Auhea ke alii o Hamata, a me ke alii o Arepada, a me ke alii no na kulanakauhale o Separevaima, o Hena, a me Iva?
Where is the king of Hamath, and the king of Arpad, and the king of the city of Sepharvaim, of Hena, and Ivvah?
14 A lawe ae la o Hezekia i na palapala mai ka lima mai o na elele, a heluhelu iho la ia mau mea: a pii ae la o Hezekia i ka hale o Iehova, a hohola aku la ia mau mea imua o Iehova.
And Hezekiah received the letter from the hand of the messengers, and read it; and Hezekiah went up into the house of Jehovah, and spread it before Jehovah.
15 Pule aku la o Hezekia imua o Iehova, i aku la, E Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela, ka mea e noho ana maluna o na keruba, o oe no ke Akua, o oe wale no, o na aupuni a pau o ka honua; o oe ka i hana i ka lani a me ka honua.
And Hezekiah prayed before Jehovah and said, Jehovah, God of Israel, who sittest [between] the cherubim, thou, the Same, thou alone art the God of all the kingdoms of the earth: thou hast made the heavens and the earth.
16 E Iehova, e haliu mai kou pepeiao, a e lohe: e Iehova, e wehe ae i kou maka, a ike; a lohe i na olelo a Senakeriba, ana i hoouna mai ai e hoino aku i ke Akua ola.
Incline thine ear, Jehovah, and hear; open, Jehovah, thine eyes, and see; and hear the words of Sennacherib, who hath sent him to reproach the living God.
17 He oiaio no, e Iehova, ua luku aku na'lii o Asuria i na lahuikanaka a me ko lakou aina;
Of a truth, Jehovah, the kings of Assyria have laid waste the nations and their lands,
18 A ua haawi aku i ko lakou mau akua i ke ahi; no ka mea, aole lakou he akua, aka, he hana a na lima kanaka, he laau, a he pohaku: nolaila, ua luku aku lakou ia lakou la.
and have cast their gods into the fire; for they were no gods, but the work of men's hands, wood and stone; therefore have they destroyed them.
19 Ano hoi, E Iehova ko makou Akua, ke nonoi aku nei au ia oe, e hoopakele mai oe ia makou mailoko mai o kona lima, i ike ai na aupuni a pau o ka honua, o oe no o Iehova ke Akua, o oe wale no.
And now, Jehovah our God, I beseech thee, save us out of his hand, that all the kingdoms of the earth may know that thou, Jehovah, art God, thou only.
20 A hoouna aku la o Isaia ke keiki a Amoza io Hezekia la, i aku la, Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela peneia, Ua lohe au i ka mea au i pule mai ai ia'u no Senakeriba ke alii o Asuria.
And Isaiah the son of Amoz sent to Hezekiah, saying, Thus saith Jehovah the God of Israel: That which thou hast prayed to me concerning Sennacherib king of Assyria I have heard.
21 Eia ka olelo a Iehova i olelo mai ai nona; O ka wahine puupaa, ke kaikamahine a Ziona, ua hoowahawaha mai ia ia oe, a ua akaaka mai ia oe: o ke kaikamahine a Ierusalema, ua hooluli mai ia i kona poo mahope ou.
This is the word that Jehovah has spoken against him: The virgin-daughter of Zion despiseth thee, laugheth thee to scorn; The daughter of Jerusalem shaketh her head at thee.
22 Owai la kau i hoino ai, a i hoohiki ino ai? Maluna owai kau i hookiekie ai i ka leo, a hapai ai i kou maka iluna? maluna o ka Mea Hemolele o ka Iseraela.
Whom hast thou reproached and blasphemed? and against whom hast thou exalted the voice? Against the Holy one of Israel hast thou lifted up thine eyes on high.
23 Ma kou poe elele ua hoino oe ia Iehova, a ua i mai, Me na halekaa o'u a nui, ua pii mai au i kahi kiekie o na mauna, i na aoao hoi o Lebanona, a e kua aku au i kona mau laau kedera loloa, a me kona mau laau paina maikai: a e komo aku au i ka halekipa o kona mokuna, i ka ululaau o kona kihapai ulu.
By thy messengers thou hast reproached the Lord, and hast said, With the multitude of my chariots have I come up To the height of the mountain, to the recesses of Lebanon, And I will cut down its tall cedars, the choice of its cypresses; And I will enter into its furthest lodging-place, [into] the forest of its fruitful field.
24 Ua eli iho an, a ua inu i ka wai malihini, a me ka poho o kuu wawae, ua hoomaloo au i na muliwai o Aigupita.
I have digged, and have drunk strange waters, And with the sole of my feet have I dried up all the streams of Matsor.
25 Aole anei oe i lohe i ka manawa mamua, na'u no ia i hana, a i na wa kahiko, na'u no ia i hookumu? ano, ua hooko no au, i lilo ai oe i mea e luku ai i na kulanakauhale i hoopaaia, a lilo i mau puu opala.
Hast thou not heard long ago that I have done it? And that from ancient days I formed it? Now have I brought it to pass, that thou shouldest lay waste fortified cities [into] ruinous heaps.
26 Nolaila ua nawaliwali ko lakou poe kanaka, a ua weliweli a pihoihoi, ua like lakou me ka launahele o ke kula, a me ka laau uliuli, me ka weuweu maluna o ka hale, a me ka palaoa eleele mamua o ka opuu ana.
And their inhabitants were powerless, They were dismayed and put to shame; They were [as] the growing grass, and [as] the green herb, [As] the grass on the housetops, and grain blighted before it be grown up.
27 Aka, ua ike au i kou noho ana, a me kou hele ana iwaho, a me kou komo ana iloko, a me kou inaina ana ia'u.
But I know thine abode, and thy going out, and thy coming in, And thy raging against me.
28 No kou inaina ana mai ia'u, a no ka pii ana mai o kou haaheo iloko o ko'u pepeiao, nolaila, e hookomo au i ko'u lou i kou ihu, a me ko'u kaulawaha i kou lehelehe, a e hoihoi aku au ia oe ma ke ala au i hele mai nei.
Because thy raging against me and thine arrogance is come up into mine ears, I will put my ring in thy nose, and my bridle in thy lips, And I will make thee go back by the way by which thou camest.
29 O keia ka hoailona ia oe, e ai oukou i keia makahiki i ka ai uluwale, a ia makahiki aku i ka mea uluwale; a i ke kolu o ka makahiki e lulu oukou, a e hoiliili, a e kanu i na malawaina, a e ai i kona hua.
And this [shall be] the sign unto thee: They shall eat this year such as groweth of itself, And in the second year that which springeth of the same; But in the third year sow ye and reap, And plant vineyards and eat the fruit thereof.
30 A o ke koena i pakele o ka ohana o Iuda e kolo lea ke aa malalo, a e hua mai i ka hua maluna.
And the remnant that is escaped of the house of Judah Shall again take root downward, and bear fruit upward;
31 No ka mea, e puka aku auanei ke koena mai Ierusalema aku, a me ka poe i pakele mai ka mauna o Ziona aku: o ka ikaika o Iehova e hana mai i keia.
For out of Jerusalem shall go forth a remnant, And out of mount Zion they that escape: The zeal of Jehovah [of hosts] shall do this.
32 No ia mea, ke olelo mai nei o Iehova penei no ke alii o Asuria, Aole ia e komo maloko o keia kulanakauhale, aole hoi e pana aku i ka pua malaila, aole hoi o hele mai imua ona me ka palekaua, aole e hoahu i puu e ku pono ana ia ia.
Therefore thus saith Jehovah concerning the king of Assyria: He shall not come into this city, Nor shoot an arrow there, Nor come before it with shield, Nor cast a bank against it.
33 Ma ke ala ana i hele mai ai, malaila oia e hoi aku ai, aole ia e komo iloko o keia kulanakauhale, wahi a Iehova.
By the way that he came, by the same shall he return, And shall not come into this city, saith Jehovah.
34 No ka mea, e malama no wau i keia kulanakauhale, e hoola no ia ia no'u, a no Davida kau kauwa.
And I will defend this city, to save it, For mine own sake, and for my servant David's sake.
35 A ia po iho, hele aku la ka anela o Iehova, a luku aku la, ma kahi hoomoana o ko Asuria, i hookahi haneri a me kanawalukumamalima tausani: a ala ae la lakou i kakahiaka nui, aia hoi, he poe kupapau make lakou a pau.
And it came to pass that night, that an angel of Jehovah went forth, and smote in the camp of the Assyrians a hundred and eighty-five thousand. And when they arose early in the morning, behold, they were all dead bodies.
36 A haalele aku la o Senakeriba ke alii o Asuria, hele aku a hoi aku la, a noho iho la ma Nineve.
And Sennacherib king of Assyria departed, and went and returned, and abode at Nineveh.
37 A i kona hoomana ana ma ka hale o Niseroka kona akua, o Aderameleka, a me Sarezera, kana mau keiki, pepehi aku la laua ia ia me ka pahikaua, a holo laua i ka aina o Ararata. A noho alii iho la o Esarehadona, kana keiki, ma kona hakahaka.
And it came to pass, as he was worshipping in the house of Nisroch his god, that Adrammelech and Sharezer [his sons] smote him with the sword; and they escaped into the land of Ararat. And Esarhaddon his son reigned in his stead.
