< 2 Meʻa Hokohoko 20 >

1 Pea hili ʻae meʻa ni, naʻe hoko ʻo pehē foki, ko e fānau ʻa Moape, mo e fānau ʻa ʻAmoni, mo e tokolahi naʻe fakataha mo e kau ʻAmoni, naʻa nau haʻu ke tauʻi ʻa Sihosafate:
A MAHOPE iho o keia mau mea, hiki mai la ka Moaba, a me ka Amona, a me lakou pu kekahi poe e ae, aole no ka Amona, e kaua mai ia Iehosapata.
2 Pea naʻe haʻu ʻae niʻihi naʻe lea kia Sihosafate, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku haʻu ʻae fuʻu tokolahi ke tauʻi koe mei he tuʻa tahi ʻi he potu mai ki heni ʻo Silia: pea vakai, ʻoku nau ʻi Hesasonitea, ʻaia ko Eniketi.”
Hele mai la kekahi poe a hai mai ia Iehosapata, i mai la, E hiki mai ana i ou la he poe nui, mai kela aoao mai o ke kai mai Suria mai; aia hoi lakou ma Hazezona-tamara, oia o Enegedi.
3 Pea naʻe manavahē ʻa Sihosafate, pea naʻa ne hanga ia ke kumi kia Sihova, pea ne fekau ke fai ʻae ʻaukai ʻi Siuta kotoa pē.
A makau iho la o Iehosapata, a halalo iho la kona maka e imi ia Iehova, a kukala aku la i la hookeai ma Iuda a pau loa.
4 Pea naʻe fakakātoa ʻa Siuta kotoa pē, ke kole ʻae tokoni meia Sihova: ʻio, naʻa nau haʻu mei he ngaahi kolo ʻo Siuta ke kumi kia Sihova.
A hoakoakoa mai la ka Iuda e imi ia Iehova; noloko mai o na kulanakauhale a pau o Iuda i hele mai ai lakou e imi ia Iehova.
5 Pea naʻe tuʻu ʻa Sihosafate ʻi he fakataha ʻo Siuta mo Selūsalema, ʻi he fale ʻo Sihova, ʻi he potu ki muʻa ʻoe lotoʻā foʻou,
Alaila, ku iluna o Iehosapata iloko o ka ahakanaka o Iuda a me Ierusalema, iloko o ka hale o Iehova imua o ka pahale hou;
6 ‌ʻO ne pehē, “ʻE Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻemau ngaahi tamai, ʻikai ko e ʻOtua koe ʻi he langi? Pea ʻikai ʻoku ke pule ʻa koe ki he ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē ʻoe hiteni? Pea ʻikai ʻoku ʻi ho nima ʻae mālohi mo e mafai, koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻa faʻa angatuʻu ha tokotaha kiate koe?
Olelo aku la, E Iehova ke Akua o ko makou poe kupuna, aole anei oe ke Akua o ka lani? aole anei oe e noho alii ana maluna o na aupuni a pau o na lahuikanaka, a iloko hoi o kou lima ka mana, a me ka ikaika, i hiki ole i kekahi ke ku e ia oe?
7 ‌ʻIkai ko homau ʻOtua ʻa koe? Naʻa ke kapusi kituaʻā ʻae kakai ʻoe fonua ni mei he ʻao ʻo ho kakai ko ʻIsileli, mo ke foaki ia ki he hako ʻo ʻEpalahame ko ho kāinga ke taʻengata?
Aole anei oe ko makou Akua, ka mea nana i kipaku i ko keia aina imua o kou poe kanaka o ka Iseraela, a haawi ia mea i ka poe mamo a Aberahama kou mea i aloha ai, i mea mau loa.
8 Pea naʻa nau nofo ai, pea kuo nau langa ʻi ai ʻae fale nofoʻanga moʻou ki ho huafa, ʻo pehē,
A noho lakou malaila, a kukulu lakou no kou inoa i luakini, me ka i ana aku,
9 ‌ʻOka hoko ʻae kovi kiate kimautolu, ko e heletā, pe ko e fakamalaʻia, pe ko e mahaki lahi, pe ko e honge, kapau te mau tuʻu ʻi he mata fale ni, pea ʻi ho ʻao, (he ʻoku ʻi he fale ni ʻa ho huafa, ) pea [mau ]tangi kiate koe ʻi heʻemau tuʻutāmaki, pea te ke ongoʻi mo ke tokoni.
I ka hiki ana mai o ka mea ino maluna o makou, o ka pahi kaua, o ka hoopaiia mai, o ke ahulau, a o ka wi, a ku makou imua o keia hale, a imua ou, (no ka mea, aia iloko o keia hale kou inoa, ) a kahea aku ia oe i ko makou wa pilikia, alaila e hoolohe mai oe, a e hoola.
10 Pea ko eni, vakai, ko e fānau ʻa ʻAmoni mo Moape mo e moʻunga ko Seia, ʻakinautolu naʻe ʻikai te ke tuku ʻa ʻIsileli ke nau tauʻi, ʻi heʻenau haʻu kituaʻā mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite, ka naʻa nau tafoki meiate kinautolu, pea naʻe ʻikai fakaʻauha ʻakinautolu:
Ano, eia hoi ka Amona, a me ka Moaba, a me ko ka mauna o Seira, ka poe au i haawi ole ai i ka Iseraela e hele io lakou la, i ko lakou hele ana mai ka aina o Aigupita mai, no ia mea, huli lakou mai o lakou aku, aole i luku ia lakou.
11 Vakai, ki he anga ʻo ʻenau totongi kiate kimautolu, kuo haʻu ʻakinautolu ke kapusi ʻakimautolu mei ho tofiʻa, ʻaia kuo ke foaki kiate kimautolu ke mau maʻu.
Eia hoi ko lakou uku ana mai ia makou, hele mai lakou e kipaku mai ia makou mai ko makou ainahooili aku, ka mea au i haawi mai ai ia makou.
12 ‌ʻE homau ʻOtua, ʻe ʻikai te ke fakamaauʻi ʻakinautolu? He ʻoku ʻikai ha mālohi ʻiate kimautolu ki he fuʻu tokolahi ni ʻoku haʻu ke tauʻi ʻakimautolu: pea ʻoku ʻikai te mau ʻilo foki ʻae meʻa ke fai: ka ʻoku hanga homau mata kiate koe.”
E ko makou Akua e, aole anei oe e hoopai ia lakou? no ka mea, aole o makou mana imua o keia poe nui, ka poe i hele ku e mai ia makou; aole makou i ike i ka mea e pono ai makou ke hana, aka, ia oe ko makou mau maka.
13 Pea naʻe tuʻu hake ʻa Siuta kotoa pē ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, fakataha mo ʻenau ngaahi fānau siʻi, mo honau ngaahi uaifi, mo ʻenau ngaahi fānau.
A ku imua o Iehova ka Iuda a pau loa, me ko lakou poe uuku, a me ka lakou poe wahine, a me ka lakou poe kamalii.
14 Pea naʻe hoko ai ʻae Laumālie ʻo Sihova kia Saesieli ko e foha ʻo Sakalia, ko e foha ʻo Penaia, ko e foha ʻo Seieli, ko e foha ʻo Matania, ko e tangata Livai ʻi he ngaahi foha ʻo ʻAsafi, ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe fakataha:
Alaila, i ke ku ana o Iahaziela iwaena o ka ahakanaka, kau mai la ka Uhane o Iehova maluna ona, oia ke keiki a Zekaria, ke keiki a Benaia, ke keiki a Matanaia ka Levi, no ka poe mamo a Asapa.
15 Pea pehē ʻe ia, “Mou fanongo mai, ʻa Siuta kotoa pē, mo e kakai ʻo Selūsalema, mo koe ʻae tuʻi ko Sihosafate, ʻOku pehē mai ʻe Sihova kiate kimoutolu, ʻoua naʻa mou manavahē pe ilifia koeʻuhi ko e fuʻu kakai tokolahi ni: he ʻoku ʻikai ʻamoutolu ʻae tau, ka ʻoku ʻi he ʻOtua ia.
Olelo mai la oia, E hoolohe oukou, e ka Iuda a pau, a me ko Ierusalema, a o oe kekahi, e ke alii, e Iehosapata, penei i olelo mai ai o Iehova, Mai makau oukou, aole hopohopo imua o keia poe nui; no ka mea, aole ia oukou ke kaua. i ke Akua no.
16 Mou ʻalu hifo ʻapongipongi kiate kinautolu: vakai, ʻoku nau ʻalu hake ʻi he tahifohifo ʻo Sisi: pea te mou maʻu atu ʻakinautolu ʻi he ngataʻanga ʻoe vaitafe, ʻi he mata toafa ʻo Silueli.
I ka la apopo e iho ku e oukou io lakou la, aia hoi lakou e pii mai ana i ka pali o Ziza; a e loaa lakou ia oukou ma ke kapa o ke kahawai imua o ka waonahele o Ieruela.
17 ‌ʻE ʻikai te mou tau ʻi he tau ni: kae tuʻumaʻu pe, ʻE Siuta mo Selūsalema, pea tuʻu longo pe, pea mamata ki he fakamoʻui ʻa Sihova maʻamoutolu: ʻoua naʻa mou manavahē pe ilifia: ʻalu atu kiate kinautolu ʻapongipongi: koeʻuhi ʻe ʻiate kimoutolu ʻa Sihova.”
Aole oukou e kaua i keia manawa, e hoomakaukau oukou, e ku malie, a e nana i ko Iehova hoola ana mai ia oukou, e ka Iuda, a me ko Ierusalema; mai makau oukou, mai hopohopo; i ka la apopo, e hele ku e aku oukou io lakou la. O Iehova pu kekahi me oukou.
18 Pea naʻe punou hifo hono fofonga ʻe Sihosafate mo hono mata ki he kelekele: pea naʻe tō fakafoʻohifo ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova ʻa Siuta kotoa pē mo e kakai kotoa pē ʻo Selūsalema, ʻonau hū kia Sihova.
Alaila, kulou iho la o Iehosapata ilalo kona maka i ka honua; a o ka Iuda a pau, a me ko Ierusalema, haule iho la lakou ilalo imua o Iehova, e hoomana aku ia Iehova.
19 Pea naʻe tuʻu hake ʻae kau Livai, ʻoe fānau ʻae kau Kohate, pea ʻi he fānau ʻa Kola, ke nau fakamālō kia Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli ʻaki ʻae leʻo lahi ʻo māʻolunga.
Ku iluna na Levi, no na Kohata, a me na Kora, o hoolea aku ia Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela me ka leo kiekie.
20 Pea naʻa nau tuʻu hengihengi hake ʻi he ʻapongipongi, ʻo ʻalu atu ki he toafa ʻo Tikoa: pea ʻi heʻenau ʻalu atu, naʻe tuʻu ʻa Sihosafate ʻo ne pehē, “ʻE Siuta, mo kimoutolu ʻae kakai ʻo Selūsalema, tokanga kiate au: Tui kia Sihova ko homou ʻOtua, ko ia ʻe fakatuʻumaʻu ai ʻakimoutolu: tui ki heʻene kau palōfita, ko ia te mou monūʻia ai.”
Ala lakou i ke kakahiaka nui, a hele lakou i ka waonahele o Tekoa; a i ko lakou bele ana aku, ku iluna o Iehosapata, olelo aku la, E hoolohe mai ia'u e ka Iuda, a me ko Ierusalema; e manaoio ia Iehova i ko oukou Akua, i hookupaaia oukou; e manaoio i kana poe kaula, i lanakila oukou.
21 Pea hili ʻa ʻene fakakaukau fakataha mo e kakai, naʻe tuʻutuʻuni ʻe ia ʻae kau hiva kia Sihova, ke nau fakaongo lelei ʻae matamatalelei ʻoe māʻoniʻoni, ʻi heʻenau ʻalu kituaʻā ʻi he ʻao ʻoe tau, mo nau lea ʻo pehē, “Fakafetaʻi kia Sihova: he ʻoku tolonga taʻengata ʻene angaʻofa.”
A kukakuka pu oia me na kanaka, a hoonoho oia i kekahi poe hoolea mele ia Iehova o hoomaikai aku i ka nani o kona hemolele, i ko lakou hele ana imua o ka poe kaua, i ka i ana aku, E hoolea aku ia Iehova; no ka mea, ua mau loa kona aloha.
22 Pea ʻi heʻenau kamata ʻae hiva mo fai ʻae fakafetaʻi, naʻe fakatoka ʻe Sihova ʻae ngaahi malumu ki he fānau ʻa ʻAmoni, mo Moape, mo e moʻunga ko Seia naʻe haʻu ke tauʻi ʻa Siuta: pea naʻe teʻia ʻakinautolu.
A i ka wa o ko lakou hoolea ana, a hoomaikai aku, hoonoho iho la o Iehova i poe hoohalua mahope o na mamo a Amona, a me Moaba, a me ko ka mauna o Seira, i ko lakou hele ku e ana ia Iuda; a ua lukuia lakou.
23 He naʻe tuʻu ʻae fānau ʻa ʻAmoni mo Moape ʻo tauʻi ʻae kakai ʻoe moʻunga ko Seia, pea taaʻi mo fakaʻauha ʻakinautolu: pea hili ʻenau fakangata ʻae kakai ʻo Seia, ʻaia nau fai ʻo fetokoniʻaki ʻi he fetāmateʻaki ʻakinautolu.
O ka poe mamo a Amona a me ka Moaba, ku e lakou i ko ka mauna o Seira, a luku, a pepehi ia lakou a pau loa, a hoopau lakou i ko Seira; alaila, mokuahana iho la lakou, a pepehi lakou i kekahi i kekahi.
24 Pea ʻi he hoko ʻa Siuta ʻo ofi ki he fale leʻo ʻi he toafa, pea nau fakasio atu ki he kakai, pea ʻiloange, ko e ngaahi sino mate pe ʻakinautolu, kuo nau tō ki he kelekele, pea naʻe ʻikai ha niʻihi kuo hao.
A hiki ka Iuda i ka halekiai ma ka waonahele, nana aku la i ka lehulehu, aia hoi, na heana o ka poe i haule i ka honua, aole wahi mea pakele.
25 Pea ʻi he hoko ʻa Sihosafate mo hono kakai ke ʻave ʻae vete ʻonautolu, naʻa nau ʻilo ʻiate kinautolu ʻae koloa lahi ʻi honau ngaahi sino mate, mo e ngaahi teunga maʻongoʻonga, ʻaia naʻa nau vete maʻanautolu, naʻe lahi hake ʻi heʻenau mafai ke fetuku ʻo ʻave: pea naʻa nau ʻaho tolu ʻi he tānaki ʻae koloa vete, he naʻe lahi ia.
A hiki o Iehosapata a me kona poe kanaka e lawe aku i ka waiwai pio, ua loaa ia lakou ka waiwai nui loa ma ka ili o na heana, a me na mea maikai loa, a ua hao iho la lakou ia mau mea no lakou iho, aole pau i ka haliia; a ekolu la o ko lakou hali ana i ka waiwai pio, no ka mea, ua nui loa ia.
26 Pea ʻi hono ʻaho fā, naʻa nau fakakātoa ʻakinautolu ʻi he toafa ko Pelaka: he naʻa nau fakafetaʻi kia Sihova ʻi ai, ko ia naʻe fakahingoa ai ʻae potu ko ia ko “Pelaka,” ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ni.
A i ka po aha, hoakoakoaia lakou ma ke awawa o Beraka; no ka mea, malaila lakou i hoomaikai aku ai ia Iehova; no ia mea, ua kapaia ka inoa o ia wahi, o ke awawa o I Beraka a hiki i keia la.
27 Pea naʻe tafoki ʻae tangata kotoa pē ʻo Siuta mo Selūsalema, pea muʻomuʻa ʻa Sihosafate ʻiate kinautolu, ke nau toe ʻalu ki Selūsalema ʻi he fiefia: he naʻe fakafiefiaʻi ʻakinautolu ʻe Sihova ki honau ngaahi fili.
Alaila, hoi ka Iuda a pau a me ko Ierusalema, a o Iehosapata ka mea mamua, i ka hoi ana i Ierusalema, me ka olioli; no ka mea, ua hoohauoli o Iehova ia lakou maluna o ko lakou poe enemi.
28 Pea naʻa nau haʻu ki Selūsalema, mo e ngaahi ūtete mo e ngaahi haʻape mo e ngaahi meʻa lea ki he fale ʻo Sihova.
A hoi mai lakou i Ierusalema me na mea kani, a me na mea ukeke, a me na pu, i ka hale o Iehova.
29 Pea naʻe [tō ]ʻae manavahē ki he ʻOtua ki he ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē ʻoe ngaahi fonua ko ia, ʻi heʻenau ongoʻi naʻe tau ʻe Sihova ki he ngaahi fili ʻo ʻIsileli.
A kau mai ka weliweli i ke Akua maluna o na aupuni o ka honua, i ko lakou lohe ana, ua kaua aku o Iehova i ka poe enemi o ka Iseraela.
30 Ko ia naʻe fiemālie ʻae puleʻanga ʻo Sihosafate: he naʻe foaki kiate ia ʻe hono ʻOtua ʻae fiemālie ʻi he potu kotoa pē.
A ua maluhia ke aupuni o Iehosapata, a ua hoomalu mai kona Akua ia ia a puni.
31 Pea naʻe pule ʻa Sihosafate ki Siuta: naʻe tolungofulu taʻu mo e taʻu ʻe nima ia ʻi heʻene kamata pule, pea naʻe pule ia ʻi he taʻu ʻe uofulu ma nima ʻi Selūsalema. Pea ko e hingoa ʻo ʻene faʻē ko ʻAsupa ko e ʻofefine ʻo Sili.
A noho alii o Iehosapata maluna o ka Iuda. He kanakolukumamalima makahiki kona i kona hoomaka ana e noho alii, a noho alii ia i na makahiki he iwakaluakumamalima, a o ka inoa o kona makuwahine, o Azuba, ke kaikamahine a Silehi.
32 Pea naʻe ʻalu ia ʻi he ngaahi hala ʻo ʻAsa ko ʻene tamai, pea naʻe ʻikai tafoki mei ai, ka naʻe fai ʻe ia ʻaia naʻe lelei ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova.
A hele ia ma ka aoao o kona makuakane o Asa, aole i huli mai ia aoao aku; ua hana oia i na mea pololei i na maka o Iehova.
33 Ka ko e moʻoni naʻe ʻikai liʻaki ʻae ngaahi potu māʻolunga: koeʻuhi naʻe teʻeki ai teuteu honau loto ʻe he kakai ki he ʻOtua ʻo ʻenau ngaahi tamai.
Aka, aole i hoohioloia na wahi kiekie: aole hoomakaukau na kanaka i ko lakou mau naau no ke Akua o ko lakou poe kupuna.
34 Pea ko eni ko hono toe ʻoe ngāue ʻa Sihosafate, ko e ʻuluaki mo e kimui, vakai, kuo tohi ia ʻi he tohi ʻa Sehu, ko e foha ʻo Hanani, ʻaia kuo lau ia ʻi he tohi ʻoe ngaahi tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli.
A o ke koena o na hana a Iehosapata, na mea mua, a me na mea hope, aia hoi, ua kakauia iloko o ka buke a Iehu ko keiki a Henani, ka mea i oleloia'i iloko o ka buke o na'lii o ka Iseraela.
35 Pea hili ʻae meʻa ni naʻe fakakau ia ʻe Sihosafate kia ʻAhasia ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻaia naʻe fai angakovi lahi:
A mahope aku, hui pu o Iehosapata ke alii o Iuda me Ahazia, ko alii o ka Iseraela, ka mea i hana hewa.
36 Pea naʻa ne kau taha mo ia ke faʻu ʻae ngaahi vaka ke ʻalu ki Tasisi: pea naʻa nau faʻu ʻae ngaahi vaka ʻi Esioni-Kepa.
Huipu oia me ia e hana i mau moku e holo i Taresa. A hana no laua i mau moku ma Eziona-gebera.
37 Pea naʻe lea ai ʻa ʻEliesa ko e foha ʻo Totava mei Malesa ʻo valoki ʻa Sihosafate, ʻo pehē, “Ko e meʻa ʻi hoʻo kau koe kia ʻAhasia, kuo maumau hoʻo ngaahi ngāue ʻe Sihova. Pea naʻe maumau ʻae ngaahi vaka, ko ia naʻe ʻikai te nau faʻa folau ki Tasisi.”
Alaila, wanana mai la o Eliezera ke keiki a Dodava no Maresa, ia Iehosapata, i mai la, I kou huipu ana me Ahazia, e wawahi auanei o Iehova i ka mea au i hana'i. A naha iho la na moku, aole i hiki ia lakou ke holo i Taresa.
