< Lunakanawai 2 >
1 HELE mai la ka anela o Iehova, mai Gilegala mai, a i Bokima, i mai la, Ua lawe mai au ia oukou mai Aigupita mai, a ua hookomo mai au ia oukou i ka aina a'u i hoohiki ai i ko oukou mau kupuna. I iho la au, Aole au e uhai i ka'u berita, a hiki loa i ka hopena.
The angel of Yahweh went up from Gilgal to Bokim, and said, “I brought you up from Egypt, and have brought you to the land I swore to give to your fathers. I said, 'I will never break my covenant with you.
2 Mai hana oukou i berita me ka poe e noho ana ma keia aina, e hoohiolo no oukou i ko lakou mau kuahu. Aole oukou i hoolohe i ko'u leo. No ke aha la oukou i hana'i i keia?
You must make no covenant with those who live in this land. You must tear down their altars.' But you have not listened to my voice. What is this that you have done?
3 Nolaila au i olelo ai, Aole au e kipaku ia lakou, mai ko oukou alo aku, a e lilo lakou i poe enemi no oukou; a e lilo ko lakou mau akua i mea e hihia ai oukou.
So now I say, 'I will not drive the Canaanites out before you, but they will become thorns in your sides, and their gods will become a trap for you.'”
4 A i ka wa i olelo ai ka anela o Iehova i keia mau olelo i na mamo a pau a Iseraela, hookiekie ae la na kanaka i ko lakou leo, uwe iho la.
When the angel of Yahweh spoke these words to all the people of Israel, the people shouted and wept.
5 Kapa aku la lakou i ka inoa o ia wahi, Bokima. A malaila lakou i mohai aku ai no Iehova.
They called that place Bokim. There they offered sacrifices to Yahweh.
6 I ka wa i kuu aku ai o Iosua i kanaka, alaila hele aku la kela kanaka keia kanaka o na mamo a Iseraela i kona hooilina iho, a komo i ka aina.
Now when Joshua had sent the people on their way, the people of Israel each went to the place assigned, to take ownership of their land.
7 Malama no na kanaka ia Iehova i na la a pau o Iosua, a i na la a pau o na lunakahiko i ola mahope iho o Iosua, ka poe i ike i na hana nui a pau a Iehova i hana mai ai no ka Iseraela.
The people served Yahweh during the lifetime of Joshua and of the elders who outlived him, those who had seen all of Yahweh's great deeds he had done for Israel.
8 A make iho la o Iosua, ke keiki a Nuna, ke kauwa a Iehova, hookahi no haneri kona mau makahiki me ka umi keu.
Joshua son of Nun the servant of Yahweh, died at the age of 110 years old.
9 A kanu iho la lakou ia ia ma ke kihi o kona aina, me Timenaheresa, ma ka puu o Eperaima, ma ke kukulu akau o ka puu o Gaasa.
They buried him within the border of the land he was assigned in Timnath Heres, in the hill country of Ephraim, north of Mount Gaash.
10 Hui pu ia'e la ia hanauna a pau me ko lakou poe makua: a ala mai la kekahi hanauna hou, mahope mai o lakou, aole lakou i ike ia Iehova, aole hoi i na hana ana i hana mai ai no ka Iseraela.
All that generation was also gathered to their fathers. Another generation grew up after them who did not know Yahweh or what he had done for Israel.
11 Hana hewa aku la na mamo a Iseraela imua o Iehova, a malama lakou ia Baala.
The people of Israel did what was evil in the sight of Yahweh and they served the Baals.
12 Haalele lakou ia Iehova, i ke Akua o ko lakou poe makua, i ka mea i lawe mai ai ia lakou mai ka aina o Aigupita mai, a hahai lakou mamuli o na'kua e, i na'kua o ka poe kanaka e noho poai ana ia lakou, a kulou imua o lakou, a hoonaukiuki aku la ia Iehova.
They broke away from Yahweh, the God of their fathers, who had brought them out of the land of Egypt. They went after other gods, the very gods of the peoples who were around them, and they bowed down to them. They provoked Yahweh to anger because
13 Haalele lakou ia Iehova, a malama iho la ia Baala a me Asetarota.
they broke away from Yahweh and worshiped Baal and the Ashtoreths.
14 Wela iho la ka huhu o Iehova i ka Iseraela, a haawi ae la ia lakou i ka lima o ka poe hao, a hao ae la ia poe i ka lakou, a hoolilo aku oia ia lakou i ka lima o ko lakou poe enemi, e noho poai ana ia lakou, aole hiki ia lakou ke ku hou imua o ko lakou poe enemi.
The anger of Yahweh burned against Israel, and he gave them to the raiders who stole their possessions from them. He sold them as slaves who were held by the strength of their enemies around them, so they could no longer defend themselves against their enemies.
15 Ma na wahi a pau a lakou i hele aku ai, ku e no ka lima o Iehova ia lakou i mea e hewa'i, e like me ka Iehova i hoohiki mai ai ia lakou; a pilikia loa iho la lakou.
Wherever Israel went out to fight, Yahweh's hand was against them to defeat them, just as he had sworn to them and they were in terrible distress.
16 Hoala mai no nae o Iehova i na lunakanawai, a hoola ae la lakou i ka Iseraela mailoko ae o ka lima o ka poe i hao i ka lakou.
Then Yahweh raised up judges, who saved them out of the hand of those who were stealing their possessions.
17 Aole hoi lakou i hoolohe i na lunakanawai; aka, moe kolohe lakou mamuli o na'kua e, a kulou hoomana aku la ia lakou. Haalele koke lakou i ke ala a ko lakou poe makua i hele ai, me ka hoolohe pono i ke kauoha a Iehova; aole hana keia poe pela.
Yet they would not listen to their judges. They were unfaithful to Yahweh and gave themselves like prostitutes to other gods and worshiped them. They soon turned aside from the way their fathers had lived—those who had obeyed the commandments of Yahweh—but they themselves did not do so.
18 A i ka wa i hoala mai ai o Iehova i na lunakanawai no lakou, alaila, noho pu o Iehova me ka lunakanawai, a hoola no ia ia lakou, mai ka lima ae o ko lakou poe enemi, i na la a pau o ia lunakanawai; no ka mea, minamina o Iehova, no ko lakou kaniuhu ana i ka hoopilikiaia, a me ka hookaumahaia mai.
When Yahweh raised up judges for them, Yahweh helped the judges and rescued them from the hand of their enemies all the days the judge lived. Yahweh had pity on them as they groaned because of those who oppressed them and afflicted them.
19 A i ka wa i make ai ka lunakanawai, hoi hou no lakou, a oi aku no ko lakou hewa mamua o ko lakou poe makua, ma ka hahai ana mamuli o na'kua e, e malama ia lakou, a e kulou hoomana ia lakou. Aole lakou i hooki iki i ka lakou hana, aole i ko lakou aoao paakiki.
But when the judge died, they would turn away and do things that were even more corrupt than their fathers had done. They would go after other gods to serve them and worship them. They refused to give up any of their evil practices or their stubborn ways.
20 Wela iho la ka huhu o Iehova i ka Iseraela, i ae la ia, No ka hehi ana o keia poe kanaka maluna o ka'u berita, a'u i kauoha aku ai i ko lakou poe makua, aole hoi i hoolohe i ko'u leo;
The anger of Yahweh burned against Israel; he said, “Because this nation has broken the terms of my covenant that I had set in place for their fathers—because they have not listened to my voice—
21 Nolaila, aole au e kipaku hou, mai ko lakou alo aku, i kekahi o ko na aina a Iosua i waiho ai i kona make ana.
I will not, from now on, drive out from before them any of the nations that Joshua left when he died.
22 I hoao aku ai au i ka Iseraela ma o lakou la, i malama paha lakou i ka aoao o Iehova, e hele malaila, e like me ka malama ana o ko lakou poe makua, aole paha.
I will do this so that I may test Israel, whether or not they will keep the way of Yahweh and walk in it, as their fathers kept it.”
23 Waiho no o Iehova i ko ia mau aina, aole ia i kipaku koke aku ia lakou; aole hoi i haawi mai ia lakou i ka lima o Iosua.
That is why Yahweh left those nations and did not drive them out quickly and give them into the hand of Joshua.
