II Oihanaalii 16
1 I KA makahiki kanakolukumamaono o ke aupuni o Asa, pii mai la o Baasa ke alii o ka Iseraela, e ku e i ka Iuda, a kukulu iho la oia ia Rama, me ka manao, aole e puka iwaho kekahi, aole e komo iloko kekahi io Asa la ke alii o ka Iuda.
In the six-and-thirtieth year of the reign of Assa, came up Ba'sha the king of Israel against Judah, and built Kamah, in order not to suffer any one to go out or come in to Assa the king of Judah.
2 Alaila lawe ae la o Asa i ke kala a me ke gula mai loko mai o ka waihona waiwai o ka hale o Iehova, a me ka hale o ke alii, a hoouna aku la oia io Bene-hadada la, i ke alii o Suria, i kona noho ana ma Damaseko, i aku la,
Then did Assa bring out silver and gold out of the treasuries of the house of the Lord and of the king's house, and sent [them] to Ben-hadad the king of Syria, who dwelt at Damascus, saying,
3 He berita no mawaena o'u a me oe, a mawaena o ko'u makua, a me kou makua; eia hoi, ke hoouka aku nei au ia oe i ke kala a me ke gula, e hooki oe i kau berita me Baasa ke alii o ka Iseraela, i hele ia mai o'u aku nei.
A covenant is between me and thee, as between my father and thy father: behold, I have sent unto thee silver and gold; go, break thy covenant with Ba'sha the king of Israel, that he may withdraw from me.
4 A hoolohe o Bene-hadada i ka Asa, ka ke alii, a hoouna mai la oia i na luna o na koa ona e ku e i na kulanakauhalo o ka Iseraela; a Iuku iho la lakou ia Iiona, a me Dana, a me Abelamaima, a me na kulanakauhale waiho ukana a pau o Napetali.
And Ben-hadad hearkened unto king Assa, and sent the captains of the armies that he had against the cities of Israel, and they smote 'Iyon, and Dan, and Abel-mayim, and all the treasure-cities of Naphtali.
5 A lohe iho la o Baasa, haalele ia i kona kukulu ana ia Rama, a hooki iho la ia i kana hana.
And it came to pass, when Ba'sha heard this, that he left off the building of Ramah, and stopped his work.
6 Alakai ae la o Asa i ka Inda a pau, halihali mai la lakou i na pohaku o Rama, a me na laau olaila, i ka mea a Baasa i kukulu ai; a kukulu iho la oia me ia mau mea ia Geba a me Mizepa.
And king Assa took then all Judah; and they carried away the stones of Ramah, and its timber, wherewith Ba'sha had built; and he built therewith Geba' and Mizpah.
7 Ia manawa, hele mai la o Hanani ke kaula io Asa la, i ke alii o ka Iuda, olelo mai la ia ia, No kou hilinai ana i ke alii o Suria, aole hoi i hilinai ia Iehova i kou Akua, no ia mea, e pakele ka poe koa o ke alii o Suria mai kou lima aku.
And at that time came Chanani the seer to Assa the king of Judah, and said unto him, Because thou hast relied on the king of Syria, and hast not relied on the Lord thy God: therefore is the army of the king of Syria escaped out of thy hands.
8 O ko Aitiopa a me ka Luba, aole anei he nui loa lakou me na hale kaa, a me na holohololio he lehulehu? Aka, i kou hilinai ana ia Iehova, haawi mai oia ia lakou iloko o kou lima.
Were not the Ethiopians and the Lubim a numerous army, with chariots and horsemen in great abundance? yet, because thou didst rely on the Lord, he gave them up into thy hand.
9 No ka mea, e holoholo ana na maka o Iehova ma ka honua a pau e hoike ana i kona mau a i ka poe i pono ia ia ko lakou naau: ua hana naaupo oe i keia mea; a ma keia hope aku e kauaia ana oe.
For as regardeth the Lord, his eyes roam throughout the whole earth, to hold strongly with those whose heart is entire toward him: thou hast done foolishly for this reason; because from this time forth there will be wars with thee.
10 Alaila, huhu o Asa i ke kaula, a hoolei oia ia ia iloko o ka hale paahao; no ka mea, ua wela kona huhu ia ia no keia mea: a ia manawa hoi hookaumaha o Asa i kekahi poe kanaka.
Then became Assa incensed toward the seer, and put him in a prison-house; for he was in a rage with him because of this. And Assa oppressed some of the people at the same time.
11 Aia hoi, o na mea a Asa i hana'i, ka mua, a me ka hope, ua kakauia ia mau mea iloko o ka palapala o na'lii o ka luda a me ka Iseraela.
And, behold, the acts of Assa, the first and the last, lo, they are written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.
12 A i ka makahiki kanakolukumamaiwa o kona aupuni, loaa iho la ia Asa ka mai ma kona mau wawae, a pii iluna kona mai; a i kona wa mai, aole ia i imi ia Iehova, aka, i ka poe kahuna lapaau.
And Assa became sick in the thirty-and-ninth year of his reign in his feet, his disease being exceedingly severe: yet even in his disease he sought not to the Lord, but [applied] to the physicians.
13 A hiamoe iho la o Asa me kona poe kupuna, a make ia i ka makahiki kanahakumamakahi o kona noho alii ana.
And Assa slept with his fathers, and died in the one-and-fortieth year of his reign.
14 A kanu lakou ia ia iloko o kona lua kahi ana i eli ai nona iho, ma ke kulanakauhale o Davida, a waiho lakou ia ia iloko o kona wahi moe, kahi i piha ai i na mea ala, a me na mea miko i hoomakaukauia ma ke akamai o na kahuna lapaau, a pupuhi aku lakou i ke ahi nona a nui loa.
And they buried him in his own sepulchres, which he had dug for himself in the city of David, and they laid him in the couch which was filled with sweet odors and divers kinds of spices mixed by the apothecary's art; and they made for him a burning uncommonly great.
