2 Chronicles 13
1 In the eighteenth year of King Jeroboam, Abijah began to reign over Judah.
I KA makahiki umi kumamawalu o ke alii o Ieroboama, noho alii iho la o Abiia maluna o ka Iuda.
2 He reigned three years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Micaiah the daughter of Uriel of Gibeah. There was war between Abijah and Jeroboam.
Ekolu makahiki kona noho alii ana ma Ierusalema; a o ka inoa o kona makuwahine o Mikaia ke kaikamahine a Uriela no Gibea. A he kaua no iwaena o Abiia a me Ieroboama.
3 Abijah joined battle with an army of valiant men of war, even four hundred thousand chosen men; and Jeroboam set the battle in array against him with eight hundred thousand chosen men, who were mighty men of valor.
A hoonohonoho iho la o Abiia i ke kaua me ka poe koa, ka poe ikaika i ke kaua, eha haneri tausani kanaka i waeia: a o Ieroboama hoi, hoonohonoho oia i ke kaua me na kanaka i waeia ewalu haneri tausani, he poe koa ikaika.
4 Abijah stood up on Mount Zemaraim, which is in the hill country of Ephraim, and said, “Hear me, Jeroboam and all Israel:
Alaila, ku iluna o Abiia maluna o ka puu o Zemaraima, aia no ia ma ka mauna o Eperaima, a olelo aku la, E hoolohe mai, e Ieroboama a me ka Iseraela a pau;
5 Ought you not to know that Yahweh, the God of Israel, gave the kingdom over Israel to David forever, even to him and to his sons by a covenant of salt?
Aole anei oukou i ike, ua haawi mai la o Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela i ke aupuni maluna o ka Iseraela, ia Davida, i mea mau loa ia ia, a me kana poe mamo, me ka berita paakai?
6 Yet Jeroboam the son of Nebat, the servant of Solomon the son of David, rose up, and rebelled against his lord.
Aka, ua ku iluna o Ieroboama ke keiki a Nebata, ke kauwa a Solomona ke keiki a Davida, a kipi iho la i kona haku.
7 Worthless men were gathered to him, wicked fellows who strengthened themselves against Rehoboam the son of Solomon, when Rehoboam was young and tender hearted, and could not withstand them.
A ua hoakoakoaia io na la na kanaka lapuwale, ka poe hewa, a ua hooikaika ku e mai ia Rehoboama, i ke keiki a Solomona. A he keiki o Rehoboama ia wa, a palupalu kona naau, aole i hiki ia ia ke ku e ia lakou.
8 “Now you intend to withstand the kingdom of Yahweh in the hand of the sons of David. You are a great multitude, and the golden calves which Jeroboam made you for gods are with you.
Ano, ke manao nei oukou e hooikaika ku e mai i ke aupuni o Iehova aia ma ka lima o na keiki a Davida; o oukou ka poe koa nui loa, a me oukou pu na bipi keiki gula a Ieroboama i hana'i, i mau akua no oukou.
9 Haven’t you driven out the priests of Yahweh, the sons of Aaron, and the Levites, and made priests for yourselves according to the ways of the peoples of other lands? Whoever comes to consecrate himself with a young bull and seven rams may be a priest of those who are no gods.
Aole anei oukou i kipaku i na kahuna a Iehova i ka poe mamo a Aarona, a me na Levi, a hoonoho iho la no oukou iho i na kahuna e like me na lahuikanaka o na aina e? a o kela mea keia mea e hiki mai me ka bipi keiki, a me na hipakane ehiku ma kona lima i mea haawi aku, ua lilo ia i kahuna no na akua lapuwale.
10 “But as for us, Yahweh is our God, and we have not forsaken him. We have priests serving Yahweh, the sons of Aaron, and the Levites in their work.
Aka, o makou nei, o Iehova, oia ko makou Akua, aole makou i haalele ia ia; a o na kahuna, ka poe kauwa na Iehova, o ka poe mamo lakou a Aarona, a o na Levi, e hana ana lakou i ka lakou oihana iho.
11 They burn to Yahweh every morning and every evening burnt offerings and sweet incense. They also set the show bread in order on the pure table, and care for the gold lamp stand with its lamps, to burn every evening; for we keep the instruction of Yahweh our God, but you have forsaken him.
Kukuni lakou i kela kakahiaka i keia kakahiaka, i kela ahiahi i keia ahiahi, i na mohaikuni na Iehova, a me na mea poni ala; a hoonoho lakou maluna o ka papaaina maemae i ka berena hoike, a me ka ipukukui gula e aa ana kona mau manamana i kela ahiahi keia ahiahi; no ka mea, e maluna ana makou i ka oihana na Iehova, ko makou Akua, aka, o oukou la, ua haalele ia ia.
12 Behold, God is with us at our head, and his priests with the trumpets of alarm to sound an alarm against you. Children of Israel, don’t fight against Yahweh, the God of your fathers; for you will not prosper.”
Eia hoi me makou ke Akua i luna no makou, a o kona mau kahuna no hoi me na mea kani e hoopuiwa ia oukou. E na mamo a Iseraela, mai kaua aku oukou ia Iehova i ke Akua o ko oukou poe kupuna; no ka mea, aole pono iki oukou pela.
13 But Jeroboam caused an ambush to come about behind them; so they were before Judah, and the ambush was behind them.
A hoonoho o Ieroboama i poe moemoe e hoohalua mahope o lakou, nolaila, imua o ka Iuda kekahi poe, a ma ko lakou kua no hoi ka poe hoohalua.
14 When Judah looked back, behold, the battle was before and behind them; and they cried to Yahweh, and the priests sounded with the trumpets.
A ike ka Iuda, aia no ke kaua mamua o lakou a mahope kekahi, kahea aku lakou ia Iehova, a hookani ka poe kahuna i na pu.
15 Then the men of Judah gave a shout. As the men of Judah shouted, God struck Jeroboam and all Israel before Abijah and Judah.
Alaila, hooho ae la ka poe kanaka o Iuda; a i ka hooho ana o ka Iuda poe kanaka, i luku mai la o Iehova ia Ieroboama a me ka Iseraela a pau imua o Abiia, a me ka Iuda.
16 The children of Israel fled before Judah, and God delivered them into their hand.
A auhee aku la ka poe mamo a Iseraela imua o ka Iuda, a haawi mai ke Akua i ua poe la iloko o ko lakou lima.
17 Abijah and his people killed them with a great slaughter, so five hundred thousand chosen men of Israel fell down slain.
A luku aku la o Abiia a me kona poe kanaka ia lakou me ka luku nui; a o ka poe o ka Iseraela i pepehiia a haule iho la, elima haneri tausani kanaka i waeia.
18 Thus the children of Israel were brought under at that time, and the children of Judah prevailed, because they relied on Yahweh, the God of their fathers.
Pela i pio ai ka poe mamo a Iseraela ia manawa, a lanakila iho la ka Iuda, no ka mea, ua hilinai aku lakou ia Iehova i ke Akua o ko lakou poe kupuna.
19 Abijah pursued Jeroboam, and took cities from him: Bethel with its villages, Jeshanah with its villages, and Ephron with its villages.
Alualu aku la o Abiia mahope o Ieroboama, a lawe pio oia i na kulanakauhale mai ona aku la, ia Betela, a me na kauhale e pili ana ilaila ia Iesana a me na kauhale e pili ana ilaila; ia Eperaima no hoi a me na kauhale e pili ana ilaila.
20 Jeroboam didn’t recover strength again in the days of Abijah. Yahweh struck him, and he died.
Aole i loaa hou ia Ieroboama kona ikaika i na la o Abiia; a hahau mai la o Iehova ia ia, a make iho la.
21 But Abijah grew mighty and took for himself fourteen wives, and became the father of twenty-two sons and sixteen daughters.
Lanakila iho la o Abiia, a lawe ae la nana i na wahine he umi a me kumamaha, a hanau mai la na keikikane he iwakalua a me kumamalua, a me na kaikamahine he umi a me kumamaono.
22 The rest of the acts of Abijah, his ways, and his sayings are written in the commentary of the prophet Iddo.
A o ke koena o na hana a Abiia a me kona mau aoao, a me kana olelo, ua kakauia ma na kaao a Ido, ke kaula.
