II Oihanaalii 11
1 A HIKI o Rehoboama i Ierusalema, hoakoakoa ae la ia i ka ohana a Iuda a me Beniamina, hookahi haneri a me kanawalu tausani kanaka ui, he poe koa, e kaua aku i ka Iseraela, e hoihoi mai i ke aupuni ia Rehoboama.
And Roboam came to Jerusalem; and he assembled Juda and Benjamin, a hundred and eighty thousand young men fit for war, and he waged war with Israel to recover the kingdom to Roboam.
2 A hiki mai ka olelo a Iehova ia Semaia, i ke kanaka o ke Akua, i mai la,
And the Word of the Lord came to Samaias the man of God, saying,
3 E olelo aku oe ia Rehoboama i ke keiki a Solomona i ke alii o ka Iuda, a i ka poe mamo a Iseraela a pau ma Iuda a me Beniamina, e i aku,
Speak to Roboam the [son] of Solomon, and to all Juda and Benjamin, saying,
4 Penei ka olelo a Iehova, Mai pii aku oukou, aole hoi oukou e kaua aku i ko oukou poe hoahanau; e hoi kela kanaka keia kanaka i kona hale iho; no ka mea, na'u aku neia mea: a lohe lakou a pau i ka olelo a Iehova, a hoi lakou mai ko lakou hele ana aku e kaua ia Ieroboama.
Thus says the Lord, You shall not go up, and you shall not war against your brethren: return every one to his home; for this thing is of me. And they listened to the word of the Lord, and returned from going against Jeroboam.
5 A noho iho la o Rehoboama ma Ierusalema, a kukulu iho la ia ma Iuda i na kulanakauhale paa i ka pa.
And Roboam lived in Jerusalem, and he built walled cities in Judea.
6 Kukulu iho la oia ia Betelehema, a me Etena, a me Tekoa.
And he built Bethleem, and Aetan and Thecoe,
7 A me Betazura, a me Soko, a me Adulama,
and Baethsura, and Sochoth, and Odollam,
8 A me Gata, a me Anaresa, a me Zipa,
and Geth, and Marisa, and Ziph,
9 A me Adoraima, a me Lakisa, a me Azeka,
and Adorai, and Lachis, and Azeca,
10 A me Zora, a me Aialona, a me Heberona, aia no ma Iuda, a ma Beniamina, he mau kulanakauhale paa i ka pa.
and Saraa, and Aelom, and Chebron, which belong to Juda and Benjamin, walled cities.
11 A hoopaa iho la oia i na paakaua, a hoonoho aku la iloko olaila i na luna a me na ahu ai, a me ka aila, a me ka waina.
And he fortified them with walls, and placed in them captains, and stores of provisions, oil and wine,
12 A iloko o kela kulanakauhale keia kulanakauhale, waiho iho la ia i na palekaua, a me na ihe, hana iho la oia malaila a paa loa, a ia ia o Iuda a me Beniamina ma kona aoao.
shields and spears in every several city, and he fortified them very strongly, and he had on his side Juda and Benjamin.
13 A o na kahuna, a me na Levi iwaena o ka Iseraela a pau, hele mai lakou io na la, mai kauwahi o lakou a pau mai.
And the priests and the Levites who were in all Israel were gathered to him out of all the coasts.
14 No ka mea, haalele ka poe Levi i na wahi o lakou, a me ko lakou hooiliua, a hele lakou i Iuda, a i Ierusalema, no ka mea, kipaku o Ieroboama a me kana mau keiki ia lakou mailoko aku o ka oihana kahuna no Iehova:
For the Levites left the tents of their possession, and went to Juda to Jerusalem, because Jeroboam and his sons had ejected them so that they should not minister to the Lord.
15 A hoonoho oia nona i na kahuna, no na wahi kiekie, a no na kao, a no na keiki bipi ana i hana'i.
And he made for himself priests of the high places, and for the idols, and for the vanities, and for the calves which Jeroboam made.
16 A mahope o keia mau mea, o ka poe a pau noloko o na ohana a pau o ka Iseraela i haawi aku i ko lakou mau naau e imi ia Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela, hele mai lakou i Ierusalema e mohai aku ia Iehova, i ke Akua o ko lakou poe kupuna.
And he cast out from the tribes of Israel those who set their heart to seek the Lord God of Israel: and they came to Jerusalem, to sacrifice to the Lord God of their fathers.
17 A hookupaa iho la lakou i ke aupuni o Iuda, a hookupaa no hoi ia Rehoboama i ke keiki a Solomona i na makahiki ekolu; no ka mea, i na makahiki ekolu, hele lakou ma ka aoao o Davida a me Solomona.
And they strengthened the kingdom of Juda; and [Juda] strengthened Roboam the [son] of Solomon for three years, for he walked three years in the ways of David and Solomon.
18 A lawe iho la o Rehoboama i wahine nana, ia Mehalata, i ke kaikamahine a Ieremota, ke keiki a Davida, a me Abehaila, ke kaikamahine a Eliaba ke keiki a Iese.
And Roboam took to himself for a wife, Moolath daughter of Jerimuth the son of David, and Abigaia daughter of Heliab the son of Jessae.
19 A hanau mai oia nana i na keiki, o Ieusa, me Samaria, a me Zahama.
And she bore him sons; Jeus, and Samoria, and Zaam.
20 A mahope iho, lawe oia ia Maaka i ke kaikamahine a Abesaloma; a hanau mai oia nana o Abiia, a me Atai, a me Ziza. a me Silomita.
And afterwards he took to himself Maacha the daughter of Abessalom; and she bore him Abia, and Jetthi, and Zeza, and Salemoth.
21 Aloha iho la o Rehoboama ia Maaka i ke kaikamahine a Abesaloma, mamua o kana mau wahine a pau, a me kana poe haiawahine; (no ka mea, aia no ia ia he umikumamawalu wahine, a me na haiawahine he kanaono; a hanau mai he iwakalua a me kumamawalu na keikikane, a me na kaikamahine he kanaono.)
And Roboam loved Maacha the daughter of Abessalom more than all his wives and all his concubines: for he had eighteen wives and sixty concubines; and he begot twenty-eight sons, and sixty daughters.
22 Hoonoho iho la o Rehoboama ia Abiia i ke keiki a Maaka i luna mawaena o kona poe hoahanau, no ka hoalii aku ia ia.
And he made Abia the son of Maacha chief, [even] a leader among his brethren, for he intended to make him king.
23 A hana maalea iho la oia, a hoonoho liilii ia i kana poe keiki ma na aina a pau o Iuda a me Beniamina, a iloko o na kulanakauhale a pau i paa i ka pa, a haawi aku oia ia lakou i ka ai a nui. Makemake iho la ia i na wahine he nui loa.
And he was exalted beyond all his [other] sons in all the coasts of Juda and Benjamin, and in the strong cities; and he gave them provisions in great abundance: and he desired many wives.
