II Na Lii 16

1 I KA makahiki nmikumamahiku o Peka ke keiki a Remalia, i lilo ai o Ahaza, ke keiki a Iotama, ke alii o ka Iuda, i alii.

In the seventeenth year of Pekah the son of Remaliah Ahaz the son of Jotham king of Judah began to reign.

2 He iwakalua na makahiki o Ahaza i kona wa i lilo ai i alii, a he umikumamaono na makahiki ana i alii ai ma Ierusalema; aole ia i hana pono imua o Iehova kona Akua, e like me Davida kona kupuna.

Twenty years old [was] Ahaz when he began to reign, and reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem, and did not [that which was] right in the sight of the LORD his God, like David his father.

3 Aka, hele no ia ma ka aoao o na'lii o ka Iseraela, a hoohelo aku hoi i kana keiki iloko o ke ahi, e like me na mea hoowahawahaia o na lahuikanaka a Iehova i kipaku ae mai ke alo aku o na mamo a Iseraela.

But he walked in the way of the kings of Israel, and even made his son to pass through the fire, according to the abominations of the heathen, whom the LORD cast out from before the children of Israel.

4 A kaumaha aku no hoi a kuni i ka mea ala ma na heiau, a ma na pun, a malalo o na laau uliuli a pau.

And he sacrificed and burnt incense in the high places, and on the hills, and under every green tree.

5 Alaila hele mai o Rezina, ke alii o Suria, a me Peka ke keiki a Remalia, ke alii o ka Iseraela, i Ierusalema i ke kaua; a hoopilikia lakou ia Ahaza, aole e hiki ia lakou ke hoopio ia ia.

Then Rezin king of Syria and Pekah son of Remaliah king of Israel came up to Jerusalem to war: and they besieged Ahaz, but could not overcome [him].

6 Ia manawa, hoihoi aku la o Rezina, ke alii o Suria, ia Elata no Suria, a kipaku aka la i na Iudaio mai Elata aku: a hele mai ko Suria i Elata, a noho ilaila a hiki i keia manawa.

At that time Rezin king of Syria recovered Elath to Syria, and drove the Jews from Elath: and the Syrians came to Elath, and have dwelt there to this day.

7 A hoouna aku la o Ahaza i na elele ia Tigelatepilesera ke alii o Asuria, i aku la, Owau no kau kauwa, a o kau keiki hoi; e pii mai oe, a e hoopakele ia'u mai ka lima mai o ke alii o Suria, a mai ka lima mai o ke alii o ka Iseraela, e ku e mai ana ia'u.

So Ahaz sent messengers to Tiglath-pileser king of Assyria, saying, I [am] thy servant and thy son: come up, and save me from the hand of the king of Syria, and from the hand of the king of Israel, who rise up against me.

8 A lawe aku la o Ahaza i ke kala a me ke gula i loaa ma ka hale o Iehova, a ma ka waihonakala o ka hale o ke alii, a hoouna aku la i makana no ke alii o Asuria.

And Ahaz took the silver and gold that was found in the house of the LORD, and in the treasures of the king's house, and sent [it for] a present to the king of Assyria.

9 A hoolohe mai ke alii o Asuria ia ia; a hele aku la ke alii o Asuria i Damaseko, a hoopio aku la ia, a lawe pio aku la i kolaila ma Kira, a pepehi aku la ia Rezina.

And the king of Assyria hearkened to him: for the king of Assyria went up against Damascus, and took it, and carried [the people of] it captive to Kir, and slew Rezin.

10 A hele aku la o Ahaza ke alii e halawai me Tigelatepilesera ke alii o Asuria ma Damaseko; a ike aku la ia i kekahi kuahu ma Damaseko; a hoouna aku la o Ahaza ke alii io Uriia la ke kahuna i ke ano o ke kuahu a me kana kii, e like me ka hana'na o ia mea a pau.

And king Ahaz went to Damascus to meet Tiglath-pileser king of Assyria, and saw an altar that [was] at Damascus: and king Ahaz sent to Urijah the priest the fashion of the altar, and the pattern of it, according to all the workmanship of it.

11 A hana aku la o Uriia ke kahuna i ke kuahu e like me ka mea a pau a Ahaza ke alii i hoouna aku ai mai Damaseko aku; pela o Uriia ke kahuna i hana'i i ka hoi ana mai o Ahaza ke alii mai Damaseko mai.

And Urijah the priest built an altar according to all that king Ahaz had sent from Damascus: so Urijah the priest made [it] against king Ahaz came from Damascus.

12 A hiki mai ke alii mai Damaseko mai, ike aku la ke alii i ke kuahu, a hele aku la a kokoke i ke kuahu, a kaumaha aku maluna ona.

And when the king had come from Damascus, the king saw the altar: and the king approached to the altar, and offered on it.

13 A puhi aku la i ka mohaikuni, a me kana mohai ai, a ninini iho la i kana mohai inu, a kapipi i ke koko o kana mau mohai hoomalu maluna o ke kuahu.

And he burnt his burnt-offering and his meat-offering, and poured his drink-offering, and sprinkled the blood of his peace-offerings upon the altar.

14 A lawe mai no hoi ia i ke kuahu keleawe imua o Iehova mai ke alo mai o ka hale, maiwaena mai o ke kuahu a o ka hale o Iehova, a waiho aku la ia mea ma ka aoao akau o ke kuahu.

And he brought also the brazen altar, which [was] before the LORD, from the front of the house, from between the altar and the house of the LORD, and put it on the north side of the altar.

15 A kauoha aku la o Ahaza ke alii ia Uriia ke kahuna, i aku la, Maluna o ke kuahu nui e puhi aku i ka mohaikuni kakahiaka, a me ka mohai ai o ke ahiahi, a me ka mohaikuni a ke alii, a me kana mohai ai, me ka mohaikuni a na kanaka a pau o ka aina, a me ka lakou mohai ai, a me ka lakou mohai inu; a e kapipi maluna ona i ke koko a pau o ka mohaikuni, a me ke koko a pau o ka mohai: a no'u ke kuahu keleawe e ninau aku ai.

And king Ahaz commanded Urijah the priest, saying, Upon the great altar burn the morning burnt-offering, and the evening meat-offering, and the king's burnt-sacrifice, and his meat-offering, with the burnt-offering of all the people of the land, and their meat-offering, and their drink-offerings; and sprinkle upon it all the blood of the burnt-offering, and all the blood of the sacrifice: and the brazen altar shall be for me to inquire [by].

16 A hana iho la o Uriia ke kahuna e like me na mea a pau a ke alii, a Ahaza i kauoha aku ai.

Thus did Urijah the priest, according to all that king Ahaz commanded.

17 A oki iho o Ahaza ke alii i na kihi o na kumu, a lawe aku i ka ipu holoi mai o lakou aku; a lawe ae la ia i ka ipu nui mai na bipi keleawe mai malalo iho ona, a kau iho la ia mea maluna o na pohaku i hoonohoia.

And king Ahaz cut off the borders of the bases, and removed the laver from off them; and took down the sea from off the brazen oxen that [were] under it, and put it upon a pavement of stones.

18 A o ka lanai no ka Sabati a lakou i kukulu ai ma ka hale, a o ke keena komo a ke alii mawaho, hoohuli ae la ia mai ka hale o Iehova aku no ke alii o Asuria.

And the covert for the sabbath that they had built in the house, and the king's entry without, he turned from the house of the LORD for the king of Assyria.

19 A o na hana i koe a Ahaza, o na mea ana i hana'i, aole anei i kakauia lakou iloko o ka buke oihanaalii a na'lii o ka Iuda?

Now the rest of the acts of Ahaz which he did, [are] they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?

20 A hiamoe iho la o Abaza me kona poe kupuna, a ua kanuia oia me kona poe kupuna ma ke kulanakauhale o Davida: a nobo alii iho la o Hezekia kana keiki ma kona hakahaka.

And Ahaz slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David: and Hezekiah his son reigned in his stead.
