1 A I ka iwa o ka makahiki o kona alii ana, i ka umi o ka malama, i ka la umi o ka malama, hele mai o Nebukaneza ke alii o Babulona, a me kona poe kaua a pau, i Ierusalema, a ku e ia wahi; a nana iho la i pa a puni ona.
In the ninth year of Zedekiah's reign, on the tenth day of the tenth month, Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, attacked Jerusalem with his entire army. He set up camp around the city and built siege ramps against the walls.
2 A hoopilikiaia ke kulanakauhale, a hiki i ka makahiki umikumamakahi o Zedekia ke alii.
The city remained under siege until the eleventh year of King Zedekiah.
3 I ka la eiwa o ka ha o ka malama, ua ikaika ka wi ma ke kulanakauhale, aohe ai na na kanaka o ka aina.
By the ninth day of the fourth month, the famine in the city was so bad that the people had nothing left to eat.
4 A ua hoopioia ke kulanakauhale. a holo aku la ua kanakakoa a pau i ka po, ma ke ala o ka ipuka mawaena o na papohaku elua, ma ke kihapai o ke alii; (a o ko Kaledea e noho ana a puni ke kulanakauhale: ) a hele aku la [ke alii] i ke ala o ka papu.
Then the city wall was broken through, and all the soldiers escaped at night through the gate between the two walls by the king's garden, even though the Babylonians had the city surrounded. They ran away in the direction of the Arabah,
5 A hahai aku la ka poe kaua o ko Kaledea mahope o ke alii, a loaa ia lakou ia ma na papu o Ieriko; a ua puehu liilii kona poe kaua mai ona aku la.
but the Babylonian army chased after the king and caught up with him on the plains of Jericho. His whole army had scattered and left him.
6 Lalau aku la lakou i ke alii, a lawe aku ia ia i ko alii o Babulona ma Ribela, a hoohewa lakou ia ia.
They captured the king and took him to the king of Babylon at Riblah, where he was sentenced.
7 A pepehi aku la lakou i na keiki a Zedekia imua o kona maka, a poalo ae la i na maka o Zedekia, a hoopaa aku la lakou ia ia i na kupee elua, a lawe aku la lakou ia ia i Babulona.
They slaughtered Zedekiah's sons while he watched, and then gouged out his eyes, bound him in bronze shackles, and took him to Babylon.
8 A i ka lima o ka malama, i ka hiku o ka la o ka malama, oia ka umikumamaiwa o na makahiki o ke alii, o Nebukaneza, ke alii o Babulona, hele mai i Ierusalema o Nebuzaraduna, ka luna o ka poe koa, ke kauwa a ke alii o Babulona.
On the seventh day of the fifth month, in the nineteenth year of Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, Nebuzaradan, the commander of the guard, an officer of the king of Babylon, entered Jerusalem.
9 A puhi aku la i ka hale o Iehova, a me ka hale o ke alii, a me na halo a pau o Ierusalema, a puhi aku la hoi i ke ahi i kela hale keia hale o ka poe koikoi a pau.
He burned down the Lord's Temple, the royal palace, and all the large buildings of Jerusalem.
10 A o ka puali a pau o Kaledea me ka luna koa, hoohiolo lakou i na papohaku o Ierusalema a puni.
The whole Babylonian army under the commander of the guard knocked down the walls around Jerusalem.
11 A o ke koena o na kanaka i waihoia ma ke kulanakauhale, a me ka poe i haule mamuli o ke alii o Babulona, a me ke koena o ka lehulehu, o lakou ka Nebuzaradana, ka luna koa, i lawe pio aku.
Nebuzaradan, the commander of the guard, deported those who were left in the city, even those who had gone over to the side of the king of Babylon, as well as the rest of the population.
12 A o ka poe ilihune o ka aina, o lakou ka ka luna koa i waiho i poe malama i na pawaina, a i poe mahiai.
But the commander of the guard allowed the poor people who were left in the country to stay and take care of the vineyards and the fields.
13 A o na kia keleawe ma ka halo o Iehova, a o na kumu me ke kai keleawe ma ka hale o Iehova, oia ka ko Kaledea i wawahi iho, a lawe aku i ke keleawe o ia mau mea i Babulona.
The Babylonians broke into pieces the bronze pillars, the movable carts, and the bronze Sea that belonged to the Lord's Temple, and they took all the bronze to Babylon.
14 A o na ipuhao, a me na mea kopeahi, a me na upakolikukui, a me na puna, a me na ipu keleawe a pau, na mea a na kahuna i lawelawe ai, oia ka lakou i lawe aku la.
They also took all the pots, shovels, lamp snuffers, dishes, and all the other bronze items used in the Temple service.
15 A o na ipuahi, a me na bola, a o na mea gula i hanaia i ke gula, a me na mea kala i hanaia i ke kala, oia mau mea ka ka luna koa i lawe aku la.
The commander of the guard removed the censers and bowls, anything that was made of pure gold or silver.
16 O na kia elua, hookahi ipunui, a me na kumu, na mea a Solomona i hana'i no ka hale o Iehova; o ke keleawe o ia mau mea, aole i kaupaonaia.
The amount of bronze that came from the two columns, the Sea and the movable carts, which Solomon had made for the Lord's Temple, all of this weighed more than could be measured.
17 He umikumamawalu kubita ke kiekie o kekahi kia, a o ke poo maluna ona he keleawe ia; a ekolu kubita ka loihi o ke poo; a o na mea i ulanaia, a me na pomegerane i hoopuniia maluna o ke poo, he keleawe wale no ia; a like me keia ka lua o na kia me ka mea i ulanaia.
Each column was eighteen cubits tall. The bronze capital on top of one column was three cubits high, with a network of bronze pomegranates around it. The second column was the same, and also had a decorative network.
18 A lawe aku la ka luna koa ia Seraia ke kahuua nui, a ia Zepania, ke kahuna lua, a me na kiaipuka ekolu.
The commander of the guard took as prisoners Seraiah, the chief priest, Zephaniah the priest, second in rank, and the three Temple doorkeepers.
19 A lawe aku la ia mai ke kulanakauhale aku i kekahi luna, ka mea i hoonohoia maluna o na kanaka kaua, a i elima kanaka punahele o ke alii, ka poe i loaa ma ke kulanakauhale, a i ke kakauolelo o ka luna kaua, nana i alakai i ke kaua i na kanaka o ka aina, a me na kanaka o ka aina he kanaono i loaa ma ke kulanakauhale.
From those left in the city he took the officer in charge of the soldiers, and five of the king's advisors. He also took the secretary to the army commander who was in charge of calling up the people for military service, and sixty other men who were present in the city.
20 A lawe aku la o Nebuzaradana ka luna koa ia lakou, a alakai aku la ia lakou i ke alii o Babulona ma Ribela.
Nebuzaradan, the commander of the guard, took them and brought them before the king of Babylon at Riblah.
21 Pepehi aku la ke alii o Babulona ia lakou, a make lakou ia ia ma Ribela i ka aina o Hamata, A ua laweia aku o ka Iuda mai ko lakou aina aku.
The king of Babylon had them executed at Riblah in the land of Hamath. So the people of Judah had to leave their land.
22 A o na kanaka i koe ma ka aina o ka Iuda, ka poe a Nebukaneza ke alii o Babulona i waiho ai, hoonoho aku la oia ia Gedalia, ke keiki a Ahikama, ke keiki a Sapana, maluna o lakou.
Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, appointed Gedaliah, son of Ahikam, son of Shaphan, as governor over the people he had left in the land of Judah.
23 A lohe na luna a pau o na kaua, o lakou, a me ko lakou poe kanaka, ua hoonoho ke alii o Babulona ia Gedalia i luna, hele mai io Gedalia la ma Mizepa, o Isemaela ke keiki a Netania, a o Iohanana ke keiki a Karea, a o Seraia ke keiki a Tanehumeta no Netopa, a o Iaazania ke keiki a ke kanaka no Maaka, o lakou, a me ko lakou poe kanaka.
When all the army officers of Judah and their men learned that the king of Babylon had appointed Gedaliah as governor, they and their men met with Gedaliah at Mizpah. They included: Ishmael son of Nethaniah, Johanan, son of Kareah, Seraiah, son of Tanhumeth the Netophathite, Jaazaniah, son of the Maakathite.
24 Hoohiki iho la oia ia lakou, a i ko lakou poe kanaka, a i aku la ia lakou, Mai makau oukou i ka hookauwa ana na ko Kaledea: e noho i ka aina, a e malama i ke alii o Babulona, a e pono auanei oukou.
Gedaliah swore an oath to them and their men, telling them, “Don't be afraid of the Babylonian officials. Stay here in the land and serve the king of Babylon, and you'll be fine.”
25 Aka, i ka hiku o ka malama, hele mai o Isemaela, ke keiki a Netania ke keiki a Elisama, no ka ohana alii, a he umi na kanaka me ia, a pepehi iho la ia Gedalia, a make iho la ia, a me na Iudaio, me ko Kaledea me ia ma Mizepa.
But in the seventh month, Ishmael, son of Nethaniah, son of Elishama, of royal blood, came with ten men. They attacked and killed Gedaliah, along with the men of Judea and Babylonians who were with him at Mizpah.
26 A ku ae la na kanaka a pau, na mea uuku, a me na mea nui, a me na luna o na kaua, a hele aku la i Aigupita; no ka mea, ua makau lakou i ko Kaledea.
As a result, all the people, from the least to the greatest, along with the army commanders, ran away to Egypt, terrified of what the Babylonians would do.
27 A i ka makahiki kanakolukumamahiku o ka noho pio ana o Iehoiakina, ke alii o ka Iuda, i ka malama umikumatnalua, i ka la iwakalua kumamahiku o ka malama, o Evilemerodaka, ke alii o Babulona, i ka makahiki ana i lilo ai i alii, hookiekie ae la ia i ke poo o Iehoiakina, ke alii o ka Iuda, mai ka halepaahao mai.
In the year Evil-merodach became king of Babylon, he released Jehoiachin, king of Judah, from prison. This happened on the twenty-seventh day of the twelfth month of the thirty-seventh year of the exile of Jehoiachin, king of Judah.
28 A olelo oluolu aku ia ia, a haawi aku ia ia i noho alii maluna o ka noho alii o na'lii me ia ma Babulona.
The king of Babylon treated him well him and gave him a position of honor higher than the other kings there with him in Babylon.
29 A hoololi iho la i kona lole aahu o ka halepaahao; a ai mau iho la ia i ka ai imua ona i na la a pau o kona ola ana.
So Jehoiachin was able to remove his prison clothes, and he ate frequently at the king's table for the rest of his life.
30 A o kana wahi ai, oia wahi mau no i ka haawiia nana, he wahi no kela la, no keia la, i na la a pau o kona ola ana.
The king provided Jehoiachin with a daily allowance for the rest of his life.
