II Na Lii 3
1 A LILO iho la o Iorama ke keiki a Ahaba i alii maluna o ka Iseraela ma Samaria, i ka makahiki he umi kumamawalu o Iehosapata, ke alii o ka Iuda, a he umikumamalua na makahiki ona i alii ai.
Now Jehoram the son of Ahab began to reign over Israel in Samaria in the eighteenth year of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, and reigned twelve years.
2 Hana ino aku la ia imua o Iehova, aole nae i like me ka kona makuakane a me ka kona makuwahine; no ka mea, lawe aku la ia i ke kii o Baala, ka mea a kona makuakane i hana'i.
He did that which was evil in the LORD’s sight, but not like his father and like his mother, for he put away the pillar of Baal that his father had made.
3 Aka, hoopili aku la ia i na hewa o Ieroboama ke keiki a Nebata, nana i hoolilo ka Iseraela i ka hewa; aole ia i haalele ia mau mea.
Nevertheless he held to the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, with which he made Israel to sin. He didn’t depart from them.
4 A o Mesa ke alii o ka Moaba, he mea malama holoholona, a hookupu aku la ia no ke alii o ka Iseraela, i hookahi haneri tausani hipakeiki, a i hookahi haneri tausani hipakane me ka hulu.
Now Mesha king of Moab was a sheep breeder; and he supplied the king of Israel with one hundred thousand lambs and the wool of one hundred thousand rams.
5 A i ka wa i make ai o Ahaba, kipi mai la ke alii o ka Moaba i ke alii o ka Iseraela.
But when Ahab was dead, the king of Moab rebelled against the king of Israel.
6 A hele aku la o Iorama ke alii mai Samaria aku, a helu aku i ka Iseraela a pau.
King Jehoram went out of Samaria at that time, and mustered all Israel.
7 Hele aku la ia, a hoouna aku io Iehosapata la ke alii o ka Iuda, i aku la, Ua kipi mai ke alii o ka Moaba ia'u: e hele pu anei oe me au e kaua aku i ka Moaba? I mai la ia, E hele no wau; ua like au me oe, ua like ko'u kanaka me kou kanaka, ua like ko'u mau lio me kou mau lio.
He went and sent to Jehoshaphat the king of Judah, saying, “The king of Moab has rebelled against me. Will you go with me against Moab to battle?” He said, “I will go up. I am as you are, my people as your people, my horses as your horses.”
8 A ninau mai la ia, Ma ke ala hea kaua e pii aku ai? I aku la ia, Ma ke ala o ka waonahele o Edoma.
Then he said, “Which way shall we go up?” Jehoram answered, “The way of the wilderness of Edom.”
9 A hele aku la ke alii o ka Iseraela, a me ke alii o ka Iuda, a me ke alii o ka Edoma; a hele poai lakou i ka hele ana i na la ehiku, aohe wai no ka poe kaua, a no na holoholona mahope o lakou.
So the king of Israel went with the king of Judah and the king of Edom, and they marched for seven days along a circuitous route. There was no water for the army or for the animals that followed them.
10 I iho la ke alii o ka Iseraela, Auwe! no ka mea, ua hoakoakoa mai o Iehova i keia mau alii ekolu e hoolilo ia lakou iloko o ka lima o ka Moaba!
The king of Israel said, “Alas! For the LORD has called these three kings together to deliver them into the hand of Moab.”
11 I mai o Iehosapata, Aole anei he kaula a Iehova maanei, i ninau aku ai kakou ia Iehova ma ona la? Olelo aku la kekahi o na kauwa a ke alii o ka Iseraela, i aku la, Eia no o Elisai, ke keiki a Sapata, ka mea i ninini i ka wai maluna o na lima o Elia.
But Jehoshaphat said, “Isn’t there a prophet of the LORD here, that we may enquire of the LORD by him?” One of the king of Israel’s servants answered, “Elisha the son of Shaphat, who poured water on the hands of Elijah, is here.”
12 I mai la o Iehosapata, Ia ia no ka olelo a Iehova, A hele aku la ke alii o ka Iseraela, a me Iehosapata, a me ke alii o ka Edoma, io na la.
Jehoshaphat said, “The LORD’s word is with him.” So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat and the king of Edom went down to him.
13 Ninau mai la o Elisai i ke alii o ka Iseraela, Heaha ka'u ia oe? e hele oe i na kaula a kou makuakane, a me na kaula a kou makuwahine. I aku la ke alii o ka Iseraela ia ia, Aole, no ka mea, ua hoakoakoa mai o Iehova i keia mau alii ekolu, e hoolilo ia lakou iloko o ka lima o ka Moaba.
Elisha said to the king of Israel, “What have I to do with you? Go to the prophets of your father, and to the prophets of your mother.” The king of Israel said to him, “No, for the LORD has called these three kings together to deliver them into the hand of Moab.”
14 I mai la o Elisai, Ma ke ola o Iehova o na kaua, imua ona a'u e ku nei, ina i manao ole au ia Iehosapata ke alii o ka Iuda, aole au e nana aku ia oe, aole hoi e ike ia oe.
Elisha said, “As the LORD of Armies lives, before whom I stand, surely, were it not that I respect the presence of Jehoshaphat the king of Judah, I would not look towards you, nor see you.
15 E lawe mai i o'u nei i ka mea nana e hookani. A i kana hookani ana, maluna ona ka lima o Iehova.
But now bring me a musician.” When the musician played, the LORD’s hand came on him.
16 I mai la ia, Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova peneia, E hana i na luawai a paapu keia awawa.
He said, “The LORD says, ‘Make this valley full of trenches.’
17 No ka mea, ke olelo mai nei o Iehova peneia, Aole oukou e ike i ka makani, aole hoi oukou e ike i ka ua; aka, e hoopihaia auanei keia awawa i ka wai i inu ai oukou, a me na bipi a oukou, a me na holoholona a oukou.
For the LORD says, ‘You will not see wind, neither will you see rain, yet that valley will be filled with water, and you will drink, both you and your livestock and your other animals.
18 A he mea uuku keia i na maka o Iehova; e haawi no hoi ia i ka Moaba iloko o ko oukou lima.
This is an easy thing in the LORD’s sight. He will also deliver the Moabites into your hand.
19 A e luku aku oukou i na kulanakauhale a pau i paa i ka pa pohaku, a me na kulanakauhale maikai a pau, a e kua aku oukou i na laau maikai a pau, a e pani aku i na punawai a pau, e luku aku hoi i na kihapai maikai a pau i ka pohaku.
You shall strike every fortified city and every choice city, and shall fell every good tree, and stop all springs of water, and mar every good piece of land with stones.’”
20 A i kakahiaka, i ka manawa i kaumahaia'ku ai ka mohai ai, aia hoi, kahe mai la ka wai mai ka aoao o Edoma mai, a hoopihaia ka aina i ka wai.
In the morning, about the time of offering the sacrifice, behold, water came by the way of Edom, and the country was filled with water.
21 A lohe ka Moaba a pau, ua hele mai na 'lii e kaua me lakou, hoakoakoa ae la lakou i na mea a pau e kaei ana i ke kaei kaua, a keu aku, a ku lakou ma ka mokuna.
Now when all the Moabites heard that the kings had come up to fight against them, they gathered themselves together, all who were able to put on armour, young and old, and stood on the border.
22 Ala ae la lakou i kakahiaka nui, a puka mai ka la maluna o ka wai, a ike aku la ka Moaba i ka wai mai o lakou aku, he ulaula e like me ke koko.
They rose up early in the morning, and the sun shone on the water, and the Moabites saw the water opposite them as red as blood.
23 I ae la lakou, He koko keia; ua lukuia na'lii, ua pepehi kekahi i kekahi; ina kakou i ka waiwai pio, e ka Moaba.
They said, “This is blood. The kings are surely destroyed, and they have struck each other. Now therefore, Moab, to the plunder!”
24 A hiki aku lakou i kahi hoomoana o ka Iseraela, ku mai la ka Iseraela, a pepehi mai la i ka Moaba, a hee aku la imua o lakou; a komo aku la lakou iloko, a pepehi aku la i ka Moaba.
When they came to the camp of Israel, the Israelites rose up and struck the Moabites, so that they fled before them; and they went forward into the land attacking the Moabites.
25 A wawahi aku la lakou i na kulanakauhale, a hoolei aku la kela kanaka keia kanaka i kona pohaku ma na kihapai maikai a pau a hoopiha iho la; a pani aku la lakou i na punawai a pau, a kua aku la i na laau maikai a pau, a koe aku la na pohaku iloko o Kireharaseta; aka, hoopuni aku la nae na mea maa, a luku aku la ia.
They beat down the cities; and on every good piece of land each man cast his stone, and filled it. They also stopped all the springs of water and cut down all the good trees, until in Kir Hareseth all they left was its stones; however the men armed with slings went around it and attacked it.
26 A ike aku la ke alii o ka Moaba, ua ikaika mai ke kaua ia ia, lawe aku la ia i ehiku haneri kanaka mea pahikaua, a hooikaika e hiki aku i ke alii o ka Edoma, aole nae lakou i hiki.
When the king of Moab saw that the battle was too severe for him, he took with him seven hundred men who drew a sword, to break through to the king of Edom; but they could not.
27 Alaila lawe aku la ia i kana keiki hiapo, i ka mea nona ke aupuni mahope ona, a kaumaha aku ia ia i mohaikuni maluna o ka papohaku. A ua nui ka inaina i ka Iseraela; a haalele lakou ia ia, a hoi aku la i ka aina.
Then he took his oldest son who would have reigned in his place, and offered him for a burnt offering on the wall. There was great wrath against Israel; and they departed from him, and returned to their own land.
