2 Chronicles 19
1 And Jehoshaphat the king of Judah returned to his house in peace to Jerusalem.
HOI mai la o Iehosapata ke alii o Iuda i kona hale iho ma Ierusalema me ka maluhia.
2 And Jehu the son of Hanani the seer went out to meet him, and said to king Jehoshaphat, Shouldest thou help the wicked, and love them that hate Jehovah? for this thing wrath is upon thee from before Jehovah.
Hele ae la iwaho e halawai pu me ia o Iehu, ke keiki a Hanani ke kaula, olelo aku la i ke alii ia Iehosapata, E pono anei oe ke kokua i ka poe hewa, a e aloha i ka poe i inaina aku ia Iehova? No keia mea, aia maluna ou ka huhu, mai o Iehova mai.
3 Nevertheless there are good things found in thee, in that thou hast put away the Asheroth out of the land, and hast set thy heart to seek God.
Ua loaa no nae kekahi mau mea maikai iloko ou, no ka mea, ua kipaku oe i na kii o Asetarota mai ka aina aku, a ua hoomakaukau oe i kou naau e imi i ke Akua.
4 And Jehoshaphat dwelt at Jerusalem: and he went out again among the people from Beer-sheba to the hill-country of Ephraim, and brought them back unto Jehovah, the God of their fathers.
Noho iho la o Iehosapata ma Ierusalema, a kaahele ae la ia iwaena o na kanaka, mai Beereseba a i ka mauna o Eperaima, a hoohuli oia ia lakou ia Iehova i ke Akua o ko lakou poe kupuna.
5 And he set judges in the land throughout all the fortified cities of Judah, city by city,
Hoonoho oia i mau lunakanawai ma ka aina, ma na kulanakauhale o Iuda i paa i ka pa a pau, ma kela kulanakauhale, keia kulanakauhale.
6 and said to the judges, Consider what ye do: for ye judge not for man, but for Jehovah; and [he is] with you in the judgment.
Olelo aku la oia i na lunakanawai, E noonoo oukou i na mea a oukou e hana'i; no ka mea, aole no na kanaka oukou e hooponopono ai, no Iehova no, a oia pu kekahi me oukou i ka hooponopono ana.
7 Now therefore let the fear of Jehovah be upon you; take heed and do it: for there is no iniquity with Jehovah our God, nor respect of persons, nor taking of bribes.
Nolaila e kauia mai ka makau ia Iehova maluna o oukou, e malama, e hana hoi; no ka mea, aohe hewa me Iehova ko kakou Akua, aole ia e manao mai i ko ke kanaka kino, aole hoi ia e lawe i ke kipe.
8 Moreover in Jerusalem did Jehoshaphat set of the Levites and the priests, and of the heads of the fathers’ [houses] of Israel, for the judgment of Jehovah, and for controversies. And they returned to Jerusalem.
A ma Ierusalema hoi, ua hoonoho o Iehosapata i kekahi poe o na Levi, a me na kahuna, a me kekahi poe luna o na makua o ka Iseraela, e hookolokolo no Iehova i na mea hoopaapaa, i ko lakou hoi ana mai i Ierusalema.
9 And he charged them, saying, Thus shall ye do in the fear of Jehovah, faithfully, and with a perfect heart.
Kauoha aku la oia ia lakou, i aku la, Penei oukou e hana'i me ka makau ia Iehova, a me ka oiaio a me ka naau pololei.
10 And whensoever any controversy shall come to you from your brethren that dwell in their cities, between blood and blood, between law and commandment, statutes and ordinances, ye shall warn them, that they be not guilty towards Jehovah, and so wrath come upon you and upon your brethren: this do, and ye shall not be guilty.
A o ka hoopaapaa a pau a ko oukou poe hoahanau e noho ana ma ko oukou kulanakauhale e lawe mai ai io oukou la, mawaena o kekahi koko, a me kekahi koko, a mawaena o ke kanawai, a me ko kauoha, a me na olelo kupaa, a me ka olelo hooponopono, e ao aku oukou ia lakou i hewa ole lakou ia Iehova, o hiki mai ka huhu maluna o oukou, a maluna o ko oukou poe hoahanau: pela oukou e hana'i, a lawehala ole oukou.
11 And, behold, Amariah the chief priest is over you in all matters of Jehovah; and Zebadiah the son of Ishmael, the ruler of the house of Judah, in all the king’s matters: also the Levites shall be officers before you. Deal courageously, and Jehovah be with the good.
Aia hoi o Amaria ke kahuna, o ko oukou luna ia ma na oihana na Iehova; a o Zebadia, ke keiki a Isemaela, oia ka luna o ka hale o Iuda ma na mea a pau a ke alii; a o na Levi, o lakou kekahi poe luna no oukou. E hoihoi oukou, e hana, a o Iehova pu kekahi me ka mea pono.
