II Oihanaalii 25
1 O AMAZIA, he iwakaluakumamalima makahiki ona i kona wa i alii ai, a noho alii iho la ia i na makahiki he iwakaluakumamaiwa ma Ierusalema; a o ka inoa o kona makuwahine o Iehoadama no Ierusalema.
Amaziah was twenty-five years old when he began to reign, and he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Jehoaddan, of Jerusalem.
2 Hana iho la ia i ka mea maikai i na maka o Iehova, aole nae me ka naau maikai.
He did that which was right in the LORD’s eyes, but not with a perfect heart.
3 A paa ia ma kona aupuni, pepehi iho la ia i kana poe kauwa nana i pepehi i kona makuakane, i ke alii.
Now when the kingdom was established to him, he killed his servants who had killed his father the king.
4 Aole oia i pepehi i ka lakou poe keiki, aka, hana oia e like me ka mea i kakauia iloko o ke kanawai, ma ka buke a Mose, kahi a Iehova i kauoha mai ai, i mai la, Aole e make na makua no na keiki, aole hoi e make na keiki no na makua, aka, e make no kela kanaka keia kanaka no kona hewa iho.
But he didn’t put their children to death, but did according to that which is written in the Torah in the book of Moses, as the LORD commanded, saying, “The fathers shall not die for the children, neither shall the children die for the fathers; but every man shall die for his own sin.”
5 A hoakoakoa Amazia i ka Iuda, a hoonoho ia lakou ma ko ka hale o na makua, i poe luna no na tausani, a i poe luna no ua haneri, no ka Iuda a pau a me ka Beniamina: a helu oia ia lakou mai ka makahiki iwakalua aku, a loaa ia ia ekolu haneri tausani kanaka i waeia, ka poe hiki ke hele i ke kaua, ka poe i makaukau i ka ihe a me ka palekaua.
Moreover Amaziah gathered Judah together and ordered them according to their fathers’ houses, under captains of thousands and captains of hundreds, even all Judah and Benjamin. He counted them from twenty years old and upward, and found that there were three hundred thousand chosen men, able to go out to war, who could handle spear and shield.
6 A hoolimalima no hoi oia noloko mai o ka Iseraela i hookahi haneri tausani koa ikaika no na talena kala hookahi haneri.
He also hired one hundred thousand mighty men of valour out of Israel for one hundred talents of silver.
7 A hele mai io na la ke kanaka o ke Akua, i mai la, E ke alii, aole pono e hele pu me oe ka poe koa o ka Iseraela; no ka mea, aole o Iehova pu me ka Iseraela, me na mamo a pau a Eperaima.
A man of God came to him, saying, “O king, don’t let the army of Israel go with you, for the LORD is not with Israel, with all the children of Ephraim.
8 Aka, ina e hele no oe, e hana no pela, e ikaika hoi i ke kaua; aka, e oupe mai ke Akua ia oe imua o ka enemi; no ka mea, aia i ke Akua ka mana e kokua mai ai, a e hoohina mai ai no hoi.
But if you will go, take action, and be strong for the battle. God will overthrow you before the enemy; for God has power to help, and to overthrow.”
9 Olelo aku la o Amazia i ke kanaka o ke Akua, Heaha ka makou e hana'i no kela mau talena hookahi haneri a'u i haawi aku ai na ka poe koa o ka Iseraela? I mai la ke kanaka o ke Akua, E hiki no ia Iehova ke haawi mai ia oe a nui e aku i keia.
Amaziah said to the man of God, “But what shall we do for the hundred talents which I have given to the army of Israel?” The man of God answered, “The LORD is able to give you much more than this.”
10 Alaila, hookaawale ae la o Amazia i ka poe koa i hele mai io na la, mailoko mai o Eperaima e hele i ko lakou wahi; a ua nui loa mai la ko lakou huhu i ka Iuda, a hoi lakou i ko lakou wahi me ka huhu wela.
Then Amaziah separated them, the army that had come to him out of Ephraim, to go home again. Therefore their anger was greatly kindled against Judah, and they returned home in fierce anger.
11 A hooikaika iho la o Amazia, a alakai i kona poe kanaka, a hele aku la i ke awawa paakai, a luku iho la i ko Seira he ami tausani.
Amaziah took courage, and led his people out and went to the Valley of Salt, and struck ten thousand of the children of Seir.
12 A lawe pio na mamo a Iuda i na kanaka he umi tausani e ola ana, a laweia lakou ma kahi pali, a hoolei aku ia lakou ilalo mai luna aku o ka pali, a pau lakou i ka weluwelu.
The children of Judah carried away ten thousand alive, and brought them to the top of the rock, and threw them down from the top of the rock, so that they all were broken in pieces.
13 A o ka poe koa a Amazia i hoihoi aku ai, i hele ole lakou me ia i ke kaua, hana ino lakou ma na kulanakauhale o Iuda mai Samaria a hiki i Betehorona, a luku iho la lakou i ekolu tausani kanaka, a lawe aku i ka waiwai pio he nui loa.
But the men of the army whom Amaziah sent back, that they should not go with him to battle, fell on the cities of Judah from Samaria even to Beth Horon, and struck of them three thousand, and took much plunder.
14 A hoi mai o Amazia mai ka luku ana i ka Edoma, hali mai oia i na akua o ko Seira, a kukulu ae la ia mau mea iluna i akua nona, a kulou ia imua o lakou, a kuni i ka mea ala ia lakou.
Now after Amaziah had come from the slaughter of the Edomites, he brought the gods of the children of Seir, and set them up to be his gods, and bowed down himself before them and burnt incense to them.
15 A ua hoaa mai la ka huhu o Iehova ia Amazia, a hoouna mai oia io na la i ke kaula, e olelo mai ia ia, No ke aha la oe i imi ai i na akua o na kanaka, na mea i hiki ole ke hoopakele i ko lakou poe kanaka, mai kou lima aku.
Therefore the LORD’s anger burnt against Amaziah, and he sent to him a prophet who said to him, “Why have you sought after the gods of the people, which have not delivered their own people out of your hand?”
16 A i kana olelo ana i ke alii, i mai kela ia ia, Ua hooliloia anei oe i kakaolelo no ke alii? Ua oki; no ke aha la oe e pepehiia iho ai? Alaila, hooki iho la ua kaula la me ka olelo ana mai, Ua ike au, ua paa ko ke Akua manao e pepehi mai ia oe, no ka mea, ua hana oe i keia, aole i hoolohe mai oe i ka'u olelo.
As he talked with him, the king said to him, “Have we made you one of the king’s counsellors? Stop! Why should you be struck down?” Then the prophet stopped, and said, “I know that God has determined to destroy you, because you have done this and have not listened to my counsel.”
17 A kukakuka iho la o Amazia ke alii o Iuda, a hoouna aku oia io Ioasa la ke keiki a Iehoahaza, ke keiki a Iehu, ke alii o ka Iseraela, i aku la, Ina kaua, e nana kaua he inaka no he maka.
Then Amaziah king of Judah consulted his advisers, and sent to Joash, the son of Jehoahaz, the son of Jehu, king of Israel, saying, “Come! Let’s look one another in the face.”
18 Hoouna mai la o Ioasa ke alii o ka Iseraela io Amazia la, ke alii o ka Iuda, i mai la, Hoouna ke kakalaioa ma Lebanona i ka laau kedera ma Lebanona, i aku la, E haawi mai oe i kau kaikamahine na ka'u keiki i wahine nana; a hele ae la kekahi holoholona o ke kula ma Lebanona, a hehi iho la maluna o ke kakalaioa.
Joash king of Israel sent to Amaziah king of Judah, saying, “The thistle that was in Lebanon sent to the cedar that was in Lebanon, saying, ‘Give your daughter to my son as his wife. Then a wild animal that was in Lebanon passed by and trampled down the thistle.
19 Olelo mai oe, Aia hoi ua luku au i ka Edoma, a ua kiekie kou naau me ke kaena ana. E noho malie oe ma ka hale; no ke aha la oe e hakaka mai ai, i pono ole ai oe, a haule oe, o oe, a me ka Iuda a pau pu me oe?
You say to yourself that you have struck Edom; and your heart lifts you up to boast. Now stay at home. Why should you meddle with trouble, that you should fall, even you and Judah with you?’”
20 Aole i hoolohe o Amazia; no ka mea, na ke Akua mai ia, i haawi uia ia lakou iloko o ka lima o ka lakou poe enemi, no ka mea, ua imi lakou i na akua o ka Edoma.
But Amaziah would not listen; for it was of God, that he might deliver them into the hand of their enemies, because they had sought after the gods of Edom.
21 Pela i pii aku ai o Ioasa ke alii o ka Iseraela, a nana laua he maka no he maka, oia a me Amazia ke alii o ka Iuda ma Betesemesa, aia uo ma Iuda.
So Joash king of Israel went up, and he and Amaziah king of Judah looked one another in the face at Beth Shemesh, which belongs to Judah.
22 A ua lukuia ka Iuda imua o ka Iseraela, a auhee aku la kela kanaka, keia kanaka i kona halelewa.
Judah was defeated by Israel; so every man fled to his tent.
23 A lawe pio o Ioasa ke alii o ka Iseraela ia Amazia ke alii o ka Iuda, ke keiki a Ioasa, ke keiki a Iehoahaza ma Betesemesa, a lawe ia ia i Ierusalema; a wawahi ia i ka pa o Ierusalema mai ka puka o Eperaima a i ka puka o ke kihi, eha haneri kubita.
Joash king of Israel took Amaziah king of Judah, the son of Joash the son of Jehoahaz, at Beth Shemesh and brought him to Jerusalem, and broke down the wall of Jerusalem from the gate of Ephraim to the corner gate, four hundred cubits.
24 A lawe aku ia i ke gula a pau, a me ke kala, a me na kiaha a pau i loaa ia ia iloko o ka hale o ke Akua me Obededoma, a me ka waiwai o ka hale o ke alii, a me na mea e paa ana me he poe panai la, a hoi aku la i Samaria.
He took all the gold and silver, and all the vessels that were found in God’s house with Obed-Edom, and the treasures of the king’s house, and the hostages, and returned to Samaria.
25 A ola o Amazia ke keiki a Ioasa, ke alii o ka Iuda, mahope o ka make ana o Ioasa, ke keiki a Iehoahaza ke alii o ka Iseraela, he umi a me kumamalima makahiki.
Amaziah the son of Joash, king of Judah, lived for fifteen years after the death of Joash, son of Jehoahaz, king of Israel.
26 A o ke koena o na hana a Amazia, ka mua a me ka hope, aole anei i kakauia'i ia mau mea ma ka buke no na'lii o ka Iuda, a me ka Iseraela?
Now the rest of the acts of Amaziah, first and last, behold, aren’t they written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel?
27 A mai ka wa mai o ko Amazia huli ana ae mai Iehova aku, ohumu ku e ka poe ma Ierusalema ia ia, a mahuka aku la ia i Lakisa; a hoouna lakou i Lakisa, a pepehi lakou ia ia malaila.
Now from the time that Amaziah turned away from following the LORD, they made a conspiracy against him in Jerusalem. He fled to Lachish, but they sent after him to Lachish and killed him there.
28 A hali mai lakou ia ia maluna o na lio, a kanu lakou ia ia me kona poe kupuna ma ke kulanakauhale o Iuda.
They brought him on horses and buried him with his fathers in the City of Judah.
