< II Na Lii 22 >
1 E WALU na makahiki o Iosia, i kona lilo ana i alii, a he kanakolukumamakahi na makahiki ana i noho alii ai ma Ierusalema. A o Iedida ka inoa o kona makuwahine, he kaikamahine a Adaia no Bosekata.
A son of eight years [is] Josiah in his reigning, and thirty and one years he hath reigned in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother [is] Jedidah daughter of Adaiah of Boskath,
2 A hana pono aku la ia imua o Iehova, a hele no ia ma na aoao o Davida kona kupuna, aole ia i huli ae ma ka akau, aole ma ka hema.
and he doth that which is right in the eyes of Jehovah, and walketh in all the way of David his father, and hath not turned aside — right or left.
3 A i ka makahiki umikumamawalu o Iosia ke alii, hoouna aku la ke alii ia Sapana ke keiki a Azalia, ke keiki a Mesulama, ke kakauolelo, i ka hale o Iehova, i aku la,
And it cometh to pass, in the eighteenth year of king Josiah, the king hath sent Shaphan son of Azaliah, son of Meshullam, the scribe, to the house of Jehovah, saying,
4 E pii aku oe ia Hilekia ke kahuna nui, a nana e helu ke kala i laweia mai iloko o ka hale o Iehova, ka mea a ka poe kiai i ka paepae puka i hoiliili ae na na kanaka mai.
'Go up unto Hilkiah the high priest, and he doth complete the silver that is brought into the house of Jehovah, that the keepers of the threshold have gathered from the people,
5 A e haawi aku lakou ia mea i ka lima o ka poe hana i ka hana, i ka poe luna hoi o ka hale o Iehova, a e haawi aku hoi lakou i ka poe hana i ka hana maloko o ka hale o Iehova, no ka hana hou i kahi naha o ka hale.
and they give it into the hand of the doers of the work, the overseers, in the house of Jehovah, and they give it to the doers of the work that [is] in the house of Jehovah, to strengthen the breach of the house,
6 A i na kamana, a i ka poe kukulu, a i ka poe hahao pohaku, a me ke kuai laau a me na pohaku i kalaiia no ka hana hou i ka hale.
to artificers, and to builders, and [to repairers of] the wall, and to buy wood and hewn stones to strengthen the house;
7 Aka, aole i helu pu ia me lakou ke kala i haawiia i ko lakou lima, no ka mea, ma ka pono ka lakou hana ana.
only, the silver that is given into their hand is not reckoned with them, for in faithfulness they are dealing.
8 I aku la o Hilekia ke kahuna nui ia Sapana ke kakauolelo, Ua loaa ia'u ka buke o ke kanawai ma ka hale o Iehova. A haawi aku la o Hilekia i ka buke ia Sapana, a heluhelu no kela ia mea.
And Hilkiah the high priest saith unto Shaphan the scribe, 'A book of the law I have found in the house of Jehovah;' and Hilkiah giveth the book unto Shaphan, and he readeth it.
9 A hele aku la o Sapana ke kakauolelo i ke alii, a hai aku i ka olelo i ke alii, i aku la, Ua ninini kau mau kauwa i ke kala i loaa iloko o ka hale, a ua haawi aku ia mea i ka poe hana i ka hana, i na luna o ka hale o Iehova.
And Shaphan the scribe cometh in unto the king, and bringeth the king back word, and saith, 'Thy servants have poured out the silver that hath been found in the house, and give it into the hand of the doers of the work, the inspectors, in the house of Jehovah.'
10 A hai aku la o Sapana, ke kakauolelo i ke alii, i aku la, O Hilekia ke kahuna, ua haawi mai ia'u i buke. A heluhelu iho la o Sapana ia mea imua o ke alii.
And Shaphan the scribe declareth to the king, saying, 'A book hath Hilkiah the priest given to me;' and Shaphan readeth it before the king.
11 A lohe ke alii i ka olelo a ka buke o ke kanawai, haehae iho la ia i kona aahu.
And it cometh to pass, at the king's hearing the words of the book of the law, that he rendeth his garments,
12 A kauoha aku la ke alii ia Hilekia ke kahuna, a ia Ahikama, ke keiki a Sapana, a ia Akebora ke keiki a Mikaia, a ia Sapana ke kakauolelo, a ia Asakia, ke kauwa a ke alii, i aku la,
and the king commandeth Hilkiah the priest, and Ahikam son of Shaphan, and Achbor son of Michaiah, and Shaphan the scribe, and Asahiah servant of the king, saying,
13 E hele oukou, a e ninau aku ia Iehova no'u, a no na kanaka, a no ka Iuda a pau, i na olelo o keia buke i loaa; no ka mea, ua nui ka inaina o Iehova i hoaia no kakou, i ka hoolohe ole o ko kakou poe makua i na olelo o keia buke, e hana like me na mea a pau i kakauia no kakou.
'Go, seek Jehovah for me, and for the people, and for all Judah, concerning the words of this book that is found, for great [is] the fury of Jehovah that is kindled against us, because that our fathers have not hearkened unto the words of this book, to do according to all that is written for us.'
14 A hele aku la o Hilekia ke kahuna, a me Ahikama, a me Akebora, a me Sapana, a me Asakia, io Huleda la ke kaula wahine, ka wahine a Saluma, ke keiki a Tikeva, ke keiki a Harehasa, nana i malama i na aahu; (a e noho ana ua wahine la ma Ierusalema, ma kekahi hapa, ) a kamailio pu lakou me ia.
And Hilkiah the priest goeth, and Ahikam, and Achbor, and Shaphan, and Asahiah, unto Huldah the prophetess, wife of Shallum, son of Tikvah, son of Harhas, keeper of the garments, and she is dwelling in Jerusalem in the second, and they speak unto her.
15 I mai la kela ia lakou, Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela peneia, E olelo aku oukou i ke kanaka, nana oukou i hoouna mai io'u nei,
And she saith unto them, 'Thus said Jehovah, God of Israel, Say to the man who hath sent you unto me:
16 Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova peneia, Aia hoi, e lawe mai ana au i ka ino maluna o keia wahi, a maluna o kona poe kanaka, i na mea a pau o ka buke a ke alii o ka Iuda i heluhelu ai:
Thus said Jehovah, Lo, I am bringing in evil unto this place and on its inhabitants, all the words of the book that the king of Judah hath read,
17 No ka mea, ua haalele lakou ia'u, a na kuni i ka mea ala i na akua e, i hoonaukiuki ai lakou ia'u, ma na hana a pau a ko lakou lima; nolaila, e hoaia ko'u inaina i keia wahi, aole ia e pio.
because that they have forsaken Me, and make perfume to other gods, so as to provoke Me to anger with every work of their hands, and My wrath hath been kindled against this place, and it is not quenched.
18 Aka, i ke alii o ka Iuda, nana oukou i hoouna mai nei e ninau ia Iehova, peneia oukou e olelo aku ai ia ia, Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela peneia, no na olelo au i lohe ai;
'And unto the king of Judah, who is sending you to seek Jehovah, thus do ye say unto him, Thus said Jehovah, God of Israel, The words that thou hast heard —
19 No ka mea, ua akahai kou naau, a ua hoohaahaa oe ia oe iho imua o Iehova i ka wa i lohe ai oe i ka mea a'u i olelo ai no keia wahi, a me kona poe kanaka, i lilo ai lakou i mea kahahaia, a i mea hoinoia, a ua haehae oe i kou aahu, a ua auwe oe imua o'u; owau hoi ka i hoolohe, wahi a Iehova.
because thy heart [is] tender, and thou art humbled because of Jehovah, in thy hearing that which I have spoken against this place, and against its inhabitants, to be for a desolation, and for a reviling, and dost rend thy garments, and weep before Me — I also have heard — the affirmation of Jehovah —
20 Nolaila hoi e hui pu aku au ia oe me kou poe kupuna, a ma kou halelua oe e huiia'i me ka malu; aole hoi e ike kou mau maka i ka ino a pau a'u e lawe mai ai maluna o keia wahi. A hai aku la lakou i ke alii i ka olelo.
therefore, lo, I am gathering thee unto thy fathers, and thou hast been gathered unto thy grave in peace, and thine eyes do not look on any of the evil that I am bringing in on this place;' and they bring the king back word.
