< II Na Lii 1 >

1 A LAILA kipi ae la ka Moaba i ka Iseraela, mahope o ka make ana o Ahaba.
After the death of Ahab, Moab rebelled against Israel.
2 A haule iho la o Ahazia ilalo i kona papaholo, mailuna mai o ka pahale ma Samaria, a mai iho la: a hoouna aku la ia i na elele, a i aku la ia lakou, E hele oukou e ninau aku ia Baalazebuba, ke akua o Ekerona, i ko'u ola ana i keia mai.
Now Ahaziah had fallen through the lattice of his upper room in Samaria and injured himself. So he sent messengers and instructed them: “Go inquire of Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron, whether I will recover from this injury.”
3 Olelo mai la ka anela o Iehova ia Elia no Tiseba, E ku, a hele aku e halawai me na elele o ke alii o Samaria, a e i aku ia lakou, No ka nele anei o ka Iseraela i ke Akua, nolaila hele ai oukou e ninau ia Baalazebuba, ke akua o Ekerona?
But the angel of the LORD said to Elijah the Tishbite, “Go up to meet the messengers of the king of Samaria and ask them, ‘Is it because there is no God in Israel that you are on your way to inquire of Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron?’
4 Ano hui, ke olelo mai nei o Iehova peneia, Aole oe e iho ilalo, mai kahi moe mai au i pii aku ai; aka, e make io no oe. A hoi aku la o Elia.
Therefore this is what the LORD says: ‘You will not get up from the bed on which you are lying. You will surely die.’” So Elijah departed.
5 A i ka hoi ana'ku o na elele, ninau mai la kela ia lakou, No ke aha la oukou i hoi hou mai nei?
When the messengers returned to the king, he asked them, “Why have you returned?”
6 I aku la lakou ia ia, I hele mai kekahi kanaka e halawai me makou, a i mai la ia makou, Ou haele, e hoi hou i ke alii, nana oukou i hoouna mai nei, a e olelo aku ia ia, Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova peneia, No ka nele anei o ka Iseraela i ke Akua, nolaila anei i hoouna aku ai oe e ninau ia Baalazebuba ke akua o Ekerona? no ia mea, aole oe e iho ilalo mai kahi moe mai au i pii aku ai, aka, e make io no oe.
They replied, “A man came up to meet us and said, ‘Go back to the king who sent you and tell him that this is what the LORD says: Is it because there is no God in Israel that you are sending these men to inquire of Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron? Therefore you will not get up from the bed on which you are lying. You will surely die.’”
7 Ninau mai la oia ia lakou, Heaha la ke ano o ke kanaka i pii mai ai e halawai me oukou, a i hai mai hoi ia oukou i keia mau olelo?
The king asked them, “What sort of man came up to meet you and spoke these words to you?”
8 I aku la lakou ia ia, He kanaka huluhulu, a na kaeiia kona puhaka i ke kaei ili. I mai la ia, O Elia no ia no Tiaeba.
“He was a hairy man,” they answered, “with a leather belt around his waist.” “It was Elijah the Tishbite,” said the king.
9 Alaila hoouna aku ke alii io na la i lunakanalima me kona poe he kanalima; a pii aku la ia io na la; aia hoi, e noho ana ia maluna pono o kekahi puu; i aku la oia ia ia, E ke kanaka o ke Akua, ua i mai ke alii, E iho oe ilalo.
Then King Ahaziah sent to Elijah a captain with his company of fifty men. So the captain went up to Elijah, who was sitting on top of a hill, and said to him, “Man of God, the king declares, ‘Come down!’”
10 Olelo mai la o Elia, i mai la i ka lunakanalima, Ina he kanaka wau no ke Akua, e haule mai ke ahi mai ka lani mai, a e hoopau ia oe, a me kou poe he kanalima. Alaila haule mai ke ahi mai ka lani mai, a hoopau iho la ia ia, a me kona poe he kanalima.
Elijah answered the captain, “If I am a man of God, may fire come down from heaven and consume you and your fifty men.” And fire came down from heaven and consumed the captain and his fifty men.
11 Hoouna hou aku la ia io na la i lunakanalima e ae, me kona poe he kanalima; a olelo aku la ia ia, i aku la, E ke kanaka o ke Akua, ua i mai ke alii peneia, E iho koke oe ilalo.
So the king sent to Elijah another captain with his fifty men. And the captain said to Elijah, “Man of God, the king declares, ‘Come down at once!’”
12 Olelo mai la o Elia, i mai la ia lakou, Ina he kanaka wau no ke Akua, e haule mai ke ahi mai ka lani mai, a e hoopau ia oe, a me kou poe he kanalima. A haule mai ke ahi a ke Akua mai ka lani mai, a hoopau ia ia, a me kona poe he kanalima.
Again Elijah replied, “If I am a man of God, may fire come down from heaven and consume you and your fifty men.” And the fire of God came down from heaven and consumed the captain and his fifty men.
13 A hoouna hou aku la ia i luna o ke kolu o ke kanalima me kona poe he kanalima; a pii aku la ke kolu o ka lunakanalima, a hele aku a kukuli iho la imua o Elia, a nonoi aku ia ia, i aku la ia ia, E ke kanaka o ke Akua, ke nonoi aku nei au ia oe, e malamaia ko'u oia, a me ke ola o keia kanalima, kau poe kauwa imua o kou maka.
So the king sent a third captain with his fifty men. And the third captain went up, fell on his knees before Elijah, and begged him, “Man of God, may my life and the lives of these fifty servants please be precious in your sight.
14 Aia hoi, i haule mai ke ahi mai ka lani mai, a hoopau iho la i na lunakanalima elua mamua, a me ko laua mau kanalima: ano hoi, e malamaia ko'u oia imua ou maka.
Behold, fire has come down from heaven and consumed the first two captains of fifty, with all their men. But now may my life be precious in your sight.”
15 Olelo mai la ka anela o Iehova ia Elia, E iho oe ilalo me ia; mai makau ia ia. Ku ae la ia, a iho pu iho la me ia i ke alii.
Then the angel of the LORD said to Elijah, “Go down with him. Do not be afraid of him.” So Elijah got up and went down with him to the king.
16 I aku la oia ia ia, Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova peneia, No kou hoouna ana'ku i na elele e ninau ia Baalazebuba ke akua o Ekerona, no ka nele anei o ka Iseraela i ke Akua e ninau ai ma kana olelo? no ia mea, aole oe e iho ilalo mai kahi moe au i pii aku ai, aka, e make io no oe.
And Elijah said to King Ahaziah, “This is what the LORD says: Is there really no God in Israel for you to inquire of His word? Is that why you have sent messengers to inquire of Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron? Therefore you will not get up from the bed on which you are lying. You will surely die.”
17 A make iho la no ia, e like me ka Iehova olelo a Elia i olelo ai; a noho alii iho la o Iehorama ma kona hakahaka, i ka lua o ka makahiki o Iehorama ke keiki a Iehosapata ke alii o ka Iuda; no ka mea, aohe ana keiki.
So Ahaziah died according to the word of the LORD that Elijah had spoken. And since he had no son, Jehoram succeeded him in the second year of the reign of Jehoram son of Jehoshaphat over Judah.
18 A o na mea i koe a Ahazia ana i hana'i, aole anei i kakauia lakou iloko o ka buke oihanaalii a na'lii o ka Iseraela?
As for the rest of the acts of Ahaziah, along with his accomplishments, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
