< II Na Lii 22 >

1 E WALU na makahiki o Iosia, i kona lilo ana i alii, a he kanakolukumamakahi na makahiki ana i noho alii ai ma Ierusalema. A o Iedida ka inoa o kona makuwahine, he kaikamahine a Adaia no Bosekata.
Eight years old was Josiah when he became king, and thirty and one years did he reign in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Yedidah, the daughter of 'Adayah of Bozkath.
2 A hana pono aku la ia imua o Iehova, a hele no ia ma na aoao o Davida kona kupuna, aole ia i huli ae ma ka akau, aole ma ka hema.
And he did what is right in the eyes of the Lord, and walked in all the way of David his father, and turned not aside to the right or to the left.
3 A i ka makahiki umikumamawalu o Iosia ke alii, hoouna aku la ke alii ia Sapana ke keiki a Azalia, ke keiki a Mesulama, ke kakauolelo, i ka hale o Iehova, i aku la,
And it came to pass in the eighteenth year of king Josiah, that the king sent Shaphan the son of Azalyahu, the son of Meshullam, the scribe, to the house of the Lord, saying,
4 E pii aku oe ia Hilekia ke kahuna nui, a nana e helu ke kala i laweia mai iloko o ka hale o Iehova, ka mea a ka poe kiai i ka paepae puka i hoiliili ae na na kanaka mai.
Go up to Chilkiyahu the high-priest, that he may collect up all the money which is brought into the house of the Lord, which the door-keepers have gathered from the people:
5 A e haawi aku lakou ia mea i ka lima o ka poe hana i ka hana, i ka poe luna hoi o ka hale o Iehova, a e haawi aku hoi lakou i ka poe hana i ka hana maloko o ka hale o Iehova, no ka hana hou i kahi naha o ka hale.
And let them deliver it into the hand of those who overlook the workmen, that have been appointed as overseers of the house of the Lord; and let them give it to those who do the work who are in the house of the Lord, to repair the breaches of the house:
6 A i na kamana, a i ka poe kukulu, a i ka poe hahao pohaku, a me ke kuai laau a me na pohaku i kalaiia no ka hana hou i ka hale.
Unto the carpenters, and the builders, and the masons, and to buy timber and hewn stones to repair the house.
7 Aka, aole i helu pu ia me lakou ke kala i haawiia i ko lakou lima, no ka mea, ma ka pono ka lakou hana ana.
Nevertheless shall there be no reckoning made with them for the money that is delivered into their hand, because they deal faithfully.
8 I aku la o Hilekia ke kahuna nui ia Sapana ke kakauolelo, Ua loaa ia'u ka buke o ke kanawai ma ka hale o Iehova. A haawi aku la o Hilekia i ka buke ia Sapana, a heluhelu no kela ia mea.
And Chilkiyahu the high-priest said unto Shaphan the scribe, A book of the law have I found in the house of the Lord. And Chilkiyah gave the book to Shaphan, and he read it.
9 A hele aku la o Sapana ke kakauolelo i ke alii, a hai aku i ka olelo i ke alii, i aku la, Ua ninini kau mau kauwa i ke kala i loaa iloko o ka hale, a ua haawi aku ia mea i ka poe hana i ka hana, i na luna o ka hale o Iehova.
And Shaphan the scribe came to the king, and brought the king word again, and said, Thy servants have taken out all the money that was found in the house, and have delivered it into the hand of those who overlook the workmen, that have been appointed overseers of the house of the Lord.
10 A hai aku la o Sapana, ke kakauolelo i ke alii, i aku la, O Hilekia ke kahuna, ua haawi mai ia'u i buke. A heluhelu iho la o Sapana ia mea imua o ke alii.
And Shaphan the scribe also told the king, saying, A book hath Chilkiyahu the priest given me. And Shaphan read it before the king.
11 A lohe ke alii i ka olelo a ka buke o ke kanawai, haehae iho la ia i kona aahu.
And it came to pass, when the king had heard the words of the book of the law, that he rent his clothes.
12 A kauoha aku la ke alii ia Hilekia ke kahuna, a ia Ahikama, ke keiki a Sapana, a ia Akebora ke keiki a Mikaia, a ia Sapana ke kakauolelo, a ia Asakia, ke kauwa a ke alii, i aku la,
And the king commanded Chilkiyah the priest, and Achikam the son of Shaphan, and 'Achbor the son of Michayah, and Shaphan the scribe, and 'Assahyah a servant of the king's, saying,
13 E hele oukou, a e ninau aku ia Iehova no'u, a no na kanaka, a no ka Iuda a pau, i na olelo o keia buke i loaa; no ka mea, ua nui ka inaina o Iehova i hoaia no kakou, i ka hoolohe ole o ko kakou poe makua i na olelo o keia buke, e hana like me na mea a pau i kakauia no kakou.
Go ye, inquire of the Lord in my behalf, and in behalf of the people, and in behalf of all Judah, concerning the words of this book that hath been found; for great is the wrath of the Lord that hath been kindled against us, because our fathers did not hearken unto the words of this book, to do in accordance with all that is prescribed concerning us.
14 A hele aku la o Hilekia ke kahuna, a me Ahikama, a me Akebora, a me Sapana, a me Asakia, io Huleda la ke kaula wahine, ka wahine a Saluma, ke keiki a Tikeva, ke keiki a Harehasa, nana i malama i na aahu; (a e noho ana ua wahine la ma Ierusalema, ma kekahi hapa, ) a kamailio pu lakou me ia.
And Chilkiyahu the priest, and Achikam, and 'Achbor, and Shaphan, and 'Assahyah, went unto Chuldah the prophetess, the wife of Shallum the son of Tikvah the son of Charchass, the keeper of the wardrobe; [now she dwelt in Jerusalem in the suburb; ] and they spoke unto her.
15 I mai la kela ia lakou, Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela peneia, E olelo aku oukou i ke kanaka, nana oukou i hoouna mai io'u nei,
And she said unto them, Thus hath said the Lord the God of Israel, Say unto the man that hath sent you to me,
16 Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova peneia, Aia hoi, e lawe mai ana au i ka ino maluna o keia wahi, a maluna o kona poe kanaka, i na mea a pau o ka buke a ke alii o ka Iuda i heluhelu ai:
Thus hath said the Lord, Behold, I will bring evil upon this place, and upon its inhabitants, all the words of the book which the king of Judah hath read;
17 No ka mea, ua haalele lakou ia'u, a na kuni i ka mea ala i na akua e, i hoonaukiuki ai lakou ia'u, ma na hana a pau a ko lakou lima; nolaila, e hoaia ko'u inaina i keia wahi, aole ia e pio.
Because they have forsaken me, and have burnt incense unto other gods, in order to provoke me to anger with all the works of their hands: therefore is my wrath kindled against this place, and shall not be quenched.
18 Aka, i ke alii o ka Iuda, nana oukou i hoouna mai nei e ninau ia Iehova, peneia oukou e olelo aku ai ia ia, Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela peneia, no na olelo au i lohe ai;
But with respect to the king of Judah who sendeth you to inquire of the Lord, thus shall ye say to him, Thus hath said the Lord the God of Israel, Concerning the words which thou hast heard;
19 No ka mea, ua akahai kou naau, a ua hoohaahaa oe ia oe iho imua o Iehova i ka wa i lohe ai oe i ka mea a'u i olelo ai no keia wahi, a me kona poe kanaka, i lilo ai lakou i mea kahahaia, a i mea hoinoia, a ua haehae oe i kou aahu, a ua auwe oe imua o'u; owau hoi ka i hoolohe, wahi a Iehova.
Because thy heart was tender, and thou hast humbled thyself before the Lord, when thou heardest what I had spoken against this place, and against its inhabitants, that they should become an astonishment and a curse, and hast rent thy clothes, and wept before me: I also have heard it, saith the Lord.
20 Nolaila hoi e hui pu aku au ia oe me kou poe kupuna, a ma kou halelua oe e huiia'i me ka malu; aole hoi e ike kou mau maka i ka ino a pau a'u e lawe mai ai maluna o keia wahi. A hai aku la lakou i ke alii i ka olelo.
Therefore, behold, I will gather thee unto thy fathers, and thou shalt be gathered unto thy graves in peace; and thy eyes shall not look on all the evil which I am bringing over this place. And they brought the king word again.
