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.

Ko eni, naʻe kamata pule ki ʻIsileli ʻa Siholami ko e foha ʻo ʻEhapi, ʻi Samēlia, ʻi hono hongofulu ma valu ʻoe taʻu ʻo Sihosafate ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta, pea naʻe pule ia ʻi he taʻu ʻe hongofulu ma ua.

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.

Pea naʻe fai kovi ʻe ia ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova; ka naʻe ʻikai hangē ko ʻene tamai, pe hangē ko ʻene faʻē: he naʻa ne liʻaki ʻae meʻa fakatātā kia Peali ʻaia naʻe ngaohi ʻe heʻene tamai.

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.

Ka neongo ia naʻa ne pikitai ki he ngaahi angahala ʻa Selopoami ko e foha ʻo Nipati, ʻaia naʻe fakaangahalaʻi ʻa ʻIsileli; naʻe ʻikai tafoki ia mei ai.

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.

Pea ko Mesa ko e tuʻi ʻo Moape, ko e ʻeiki ia naʻe maʻu fanga sipi, pea naʻa ne tuku ki he tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli ha fanga lami ʻe taha kilu, mo e fanga sipitangata ʻe taha kilu, pea mo honau fulufulu.

5 A i ka wa i make ai o Ahaba, kipi mai la ke alii o ka Moaba i ke alii o ka Iseraela.

Ka naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi heʻene pekia ʻa ʻEhapi, naʻe angatuʻu ʻae tuʻi ʻo Moape ki he tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli.

6 A hele aku la o Iorama ke alii mai Samaria aku, a helu aku i ka Iseraela a pau.

Pea ʻi he kuonga ko ia naʻe ʻalu atu mei Samēlia ʻae tuʻi ko Siholami, mo ne lau hake ʻa ʻIsileli kātoa.

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.

Pea naʻa ne ʻalu mo ne fekau kia Sihosafate, ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta, ʻo pehē, “Kuo angatuʻu kiate au ʻae tuʻi ʻo Moape: te ke fie ʻalu mo au ki Moape ke fai ʻae tau pe ʻikai? Pea naʻe pehē mai ʻe ia, Te u ʻalu hake pe; ʻoka kou hangē ko koe, ʻoku tatau ʻa hoku kakai mo ho kakai, pea tatau ʻa ʻeku fanga hoosi mo hoʻo fanga hoosi.”

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.

Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “Te ta ʻalu hake ʻi he hala fē? Pea naʻe pehēange ʻe ia, ʻI he hala ʻoku ʻalu atu ʻi he toafa ʻo ʻItomi.”

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.

Ko ia naʻe ʻalu ai ʻae tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli, mo e tuʻi ʻo Siuta pea mo e tuʻi ʻo ʻItomi: pea naʻa nau hala fakatakamilo hake ʻo fononga ʻi he ʻaho ʻe fitu: pea naʻe ʻikai ha vai mā ʻae kautau, pe ko e fanga manu naʻe muimui ʻiate kinautolu.

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!

Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli, “ʻOiauē! ʻI he ui mai ʻe Sihova ke fakataha ʻae tuʻi ʻe toko tolu ni, ke tukuange ʻakinautolu ki he nima ʻo Moape!”

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.

Ka naʻe pehē ʻe Sihosafate, “ʻOku ʻikai ʻi heni ha palōfita ʻa Sihova, koeʻuhi ke tau fehuʻi ʻiate ia kia Sihova?” Pea naʻe tali ʻe ha tokotaha ʻi he kau tamaioʻeiki ʻae tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻo, pehē, “ʻOku ʻi heni ʻa ʻIlaisa ko e foha ʻo Safati, ʻaia naʻe lingi vai ki he nima ʻo ʻIlaisiā.”

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.

Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihosafate, “ʻOku ʻiate ia ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova.” Ko ia naʻe ʻalu hifo ai kiate ia ʻae tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli, mo Sihosafate, pea mo e tuʻi ʻo ʻItomi.

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.

Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ʻIlaisa ki he tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli, “Ko e hā au kiate koe? Ke ke ʻalu ki he kau palōfita ʻo hoʻo tamai, pea ki he kau palōfita ʻo hoʻo faʻē.” Pea naʻe pehē kiate ia ʻe he tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli, “ʻE ʻikai: he kuo ui ʻa Sihova ke fakataha mai ʻae ngaahi tuʻi ni ʻe toko tolu, koeʻuhi ke tuku ʻakinautolu ki he nima ʻo Moape.”

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.

Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ʻIlaisa, “ʻOku moʻui ʻa Sihova ʻoe ngaahi tokolahi, ʻaia ʻoku ou tuʻu ʻi hono ʻao, pea ko e moʻoni, ka ne ʻoua ʻa ʻeku tokanga ki he ʻao ʻo Sihosafate ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta, pehē, ʻe ʻikai te u hanga atu kiate koe, pe mamata kiate koe.

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.

Ka ko eni, ʻomi kiate au ha tangata ʻoku tā ha meʻa faiva.” Pea vakai ʻi heʻene tā ʻae hiva ʻe he tangata tā meʻa faiva, naʻe hoko mai ʻae nima ʻo Sihova kiate ia.

16 I mai la ia, Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova peneia, E hana i na luawai a paapu keia awawa.

Pea naʻa ne pehē, “ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, Mou fakafonu ʻae teleʻa ni ʻi he ngaahi luo.

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.

He ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, ʻE ʻikai te mou sio ki ha matangi, pe mamata ki ha ʻuha; ka neongo ia, ʻe pito ʻae teleʻa ni ʻi he vai, koeʻuhi ke mou inu, ʻio ʻakimoutolu, pea mo hoʻomou fanga pulu, pea mo hoʻomou fanga manu.

18 A he mea uuku keia i na maka o Iehova; e haawi no hoi ia i ka Moaba iloko o ko oukou lima.

Pea ko e meʻa maʻamaʻa eni ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova: te ne tuku mai foki ʻae kakai Moape ki homou nima.

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.

Pea te mou teʻia ʻae kolo kotoa pē kuo tanu puke, mo e kolo lelei kotoa pē, pea te mou tā hifo ʻae ʻakau lelei kotoa pē, mo punusi ʻae vaikeli kotoa pē, mo maumau ʻaki ʻae maka ʻae potu fonua lelei kotoa pē.”

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.

Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē ʻi heʻene pongipongi, lolotonga ʻae ʻohake ʻae feilaulau meʻakai, vakai, naʻe tafe mai ʻae vai mei he hala ki ʻItomi, pea naʻe fonu ʻae fonua ʻi he vai.

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.

Pea ʻi he fanongo ʻe he kakai Moape kotoa pē, ki he ʻalu hake ʻae ngaahi tuʻi ke tauʻi ʻakinautolu, naʻa nau tānaki mai ʻakinautolu kotoa pē naʻe faʻa fua ʻae mahafutau, ʻo fai hake, ʻonau tutuʻu ʻi he ngataʻanga [fonua].

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.

Pea naʻa nau tuʻu hengihengi hake ʻi he pongipongi, pea naʻe ulo ʻae laʻā ki he funga vai, pea naʻe mamata ʻe he kakai Moape ki he vai mei he potu ʻe taha, ʻoku kulokula ʻae vai ʻo hangē ko e toto:

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.

Pea naʻa nau pehē, “Ko e toto eni tā ko e moʻoni kuo fakaʻauha ʻae ngaahi tuʻi, pea kuo nau fetāmateʻaki ʻakinautolu: ko ia foki, ʻakimoutolu Moape, ke tau ʻalu atu ki he vete.”

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.

Pea ʻi heʻenau hoko mai ki he ʻapitanga tau ʻo ʻIsileli, naʻe tuʻu hake ʻae kakai ʻIsileli ʻonau teʻia ʻae kau Moape, pea naʻa nau hola mei honau ʻao: ka naʻa nau muimui atu ʻi he teʻia ʻae kakai Moape, ʻi honau fonua ʻonautolu.

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.

Pea naʻa nau fakalala ʻae ngaahi kolo, pea ʻilonga ʻae konga fonua kotoa pē naʻe lelei, naʻe lī ki ai ʻe he tangata taki taha ʻa ʻene maka, ke fonu ai ia; pea naʻa nau punusi ʻae ngaahi vaikeli kotoa pē, mo nau tā hifo ʻae ngaahi ʻakau lelei kotoa pē: ko Kili-Halaseti pe naʻa nau tuku ai hono ngaahi maka ʻo ia; ka naʻe nofo tākai ki ai ʻae kau tangata makatā, mo nau kapasia ia.

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.

Pea ʻi heʻene mamata ʻe he tuʻi ʻo Moape, kuo mālohi fau ʻae tau kiate ia, naʻa ne ʻave mo ia ʻae kau tangata ʻe toko fitungeau naʻe toʻo heletā, ke nau ʻoho atu ke lava ki he tuʻi ʻo ʻItomi: ka naʻe ʻikai te nau mafai.

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.

Pea naʻa ne toki toʻo ʻa hono ʻuluaki foha ʻaia naʻe tonu ke hoko mo ia ki he pule, mo ne feilaulau ʻaki ia ko e feilaulau tutu ʻi he funga ʻā. Pea naʻe lahi ʻaupito ʻae ʻita ki ʻIsileli: pea naʻa nau liʻaki ia mo nau foki atu ki honau fonua.
