< 1 Samuel 23 >

1 And they told David, saying, Behold, the Philistines fight against Keilah, and they rob the threshing-floors.
A LAILA hai aku la lakou ia Davida, i aku la, Aia hoi, ke kaua mai nei ko Pilisetia i Keila, a hao wale lakou ma kahi hehi palaoa.
2 And David inquired of Jehovah, saying, Shall I go and smite these Philistines? And Jehovah said to David, Go and smite the Philistines, and save Keilah.
No ia mea, ninau aku la o Davida ia Iehova, i aku la, E hele anei au e pepehi i keia poe o ko Pilisetia? I mai la o Iehova ia Davida, O hele a pepehi aku i ko Pilisetia, a e hoopakele i ko Keila.
3 But David's men said to him, Behold, we are afraid here in Judah; how much more then if we go to Keilah against the armies of the Philistines?
Olelo mai na kanaka o Davida ia ia, Aia hoi, ke makau nei kakou maanei maloko o ka Iuda: aole anei he nui aku, ke hele kakou ma Keila e ku e i ka poe kaua no ko Pilisetia?
4 And David inquired of Jehovah yet again. And Jehovah answered him and said, Arise, go down to Keilah; for I will give the Philistines into thy hand.
A ninau hou aku la o Davida ia Iehova. Olelo mai la o Iehova ia ia, i mai la, E ku ae e hele ma Keila; no ka mea, e hoolilo au i ko Pilisetia iloko o kou lima.
5 And David and his men went to Keilah, and fought against the Philistines, and brought away their cattle, and smote them with a great slaughter. So David saved the inhabitants of Keilah.
A hele aku la o Davida me kona poe kanaka ma Keila, a kaua aku i ko Pilisetia, a lawe aku i ko lakou holoholona, a pepehi aku ia lakou me ka luku nui. A hoopakele o Davida i na kanaka o Keila.
6 And it came to pass, when Abiathar the son of Ahimelech fled to David to Keilah, he came down with an ephod in his hand.
A i ka holo ana o Abiatara ke keiki a Ahimeleka io Davida la i Keila, ua hele no ia me ka epoda ma kona lima.
7 And it was told Saul that David had come to Keilah. Then Saul said, God has cast him off into my hand; for he is shut in, by entering into a city that has gates and bars.
Ua haiia ia Saula ko Davida hele ana ma Keila. I mai la o Saula, Ua hoolilo mai ke Akua ia ia iloko o kuu lima; no ka mea, ua paa ia maloko, i kona komo ana i ke kulanakauhale i paa i na ipuka a me na kaola.
8 And Saul summoned all the people to war, to go down to Keilah, to besiege David and his men.
Houluulu ae la o Saula i na kanaka a pau i ke kaua, o hele ma Keila, e hoopaa aku ia Davida a me kona poe kanaka.
9 And when David knew that Saul devised mischief against him, he said to Abiathar the priest, Bring the ephod.
A ike iho la o Davida, ua manao ino malu mai o Saula ia ia; i aku la oia ia Abiatara ke kahuna, E lawe mai i ka epoda.
10 Then said David, Jehovah, God of Israel, thy servant hath heard for certain that Saul seeketh to come to Keilah, to destroy the city for my sake.
Alaila i aku la o Davida, E Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela, ua lohe akaka iho nei kau kauwa i ka manao ana o Saula e hele mai nei i Keila e luku i ke kulanakauhale no'u nei.
11 Will the citizens of Keilah deliver me up into his hand? will Saul come down, as thy servant hath heard? Jehovah, God of Israel, I beseech thee, tell thy servant. And Jehovah said, He will come down.
E haawi anei na kanaka o Keila ia'u iloko o kona lima? E iho mai anei o Saula e like me kau kauwa i lohe ai? E Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela, ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e hai mai oe i kau kauwa. I mai la o Iehova, E iho mai no.
12 And David said, Will the citizens of Keilah deliver up me and my men into the hand of Saul? And Jehovah said, They will deliver [thee] up.
I aku la o Davida, E haawi anei na kanaka o Keila ia'u a me kuu poe kanaka iloko o ka lima o Saula? I mai la o Iehova, E haawi no lakou.
13 Then David and his men, about six hundred, arose and departed out of Keilah, and went whithersoever they could go. And it was told Saul that David had escaped from Keilah, and he forbore to go forth.
Alaila ku ae la o Davida a me kona poe kanaka, aono haneri paha, a puka aku la iwaho o Keila, a hele aku ia i ka lakou wahi e hele ai. Ua haiia mai ia Saula ka holo ana o Davida mai Keila aku, a haalele ia i ka hele mai.
14 And David abode in the wilderness in strongholds, and abode in the mountain in the wilderness of Ziph. And Saul sought him every day, but God did not give him into his hand.
A noho iho la o Davida i ka waonahele, ma na wahi paa, a noho i ka mauna ma ka waonahele o Zipa: a imi aku la o Saula ia ia i kela la i keia la, aole ke Akua i haawi mai ia ia iloko o kona lima.
15 And David saw that Saul had come out to seek his life; and David was in the wilderness of Ziph in a wood.
A ike iho la o Davida, ua hele mai o Saula e imi i kona ola: aia no o Davida ma ka waonahele a Zipa maloko o ka ululaau.
16 And Jonathan Saul's son arose, and went to David into the wood, and strengthened his hand in God.
Ku ae la o Ionatana ke keiki a Saula, a hele io Davida la maloko o ka ululaau, a hooikaika aku la i kona lima ma ke Akua.
17 And he said to him, Fear not; for the hand of Saul my father will not find thee; and thou shalt be king over Israel, and I shall be next to thee; and that also Saul my father knows.
I aku la oia ia ia, Mai makau oe, no ka mea, aole e loaa oe i ka lima o Saula ko'u makuakane: a e lilo oe i alii maluna o ka Iseraela, a owau hoi ka lua malalo iho ou: a ua ikeia hoi ia e Saula, e ko'u makuakane.
18 And they two made a covenant before Jehovah; and David abode in the wood, and Jonathan went to his house.
A hoopaa iho la laua i kuikahi imua o Iehova. Noho iho la o Davida maloko o ka ululaau, a hoi aku la o Ionatana ma kona hale.
19 And the Ziphites came up to Saul to Gibeah, saying, Does not David hide himself with us in strongholds in the wood, on the hill of Hachilah, which is on the south of the waste?
Alaila pii mai la ko Zipa io Saula la ma Gibea, i mai la, Aole anei o Davida i pee iho io makou la ma na wahi paa iloko o ka ululaau ma ka puu o Hakila, ma ka aoao hema o Iesimona?
20 And now, O king, come down according to all the desire of thy soul to come down; and it will be for us to deliver him up into the king's hand.
No ia mea hoi, E ke alii, e iho mai oe, e like me ka makemake a pau o kou naau e iho mai, a na makou ia e haawi aku iloko o ka lima o ke alii.
21 And Saul said, Blessed be ye of Jehovah; for ye have compassion upon me.
I aku la o Saula, E pomaikai oukou ia Iehova; no ka mea, ua lokomaikai mai oukou ia'u.
22 Go, I pray you, make yet more sure, and know and see his place where his track is, who has seen him there; for it is told me that he deals very subtilly.
Ke noi aku nei au ia oukou, e hele, e hoomakaukau hoi, a e nana a ike i kona wahi a kona wawae i hele ai, a o ka mea i ike ia ia malaila: no ka mea, ua haiia mai ia'u, ua hana maalea loa oia.
23 And see, and ascertain all the lurking-places where he hides himself, and come ye again to me with sure information, that I may go with you; and it shall come to pass, if he be in the land, that I will search him out throughout the thousands of Judah.
E nana hoi oukou, a ike i na wahi pee a pau ana e pee ai, a hoi hou mai io'u nei me ka oiaio, a e hele pu au me oukou; a ina e noho ana oia ma ka aina, e imi au ia ia mawaena o na tausani a pau o ka Iuda.
24 And they arose and went to Ziph before Saul; but David and his men were in the wilderness of Maon, in the plain on the south of the waste.
Ku ae la lakou, a hele ma Zipa mamua o Saula: a o Davida a me kona poe kanaka aia iloko o ka waonahele o Maona i ka papu ma ka aoao hema o Iesimona.
25 And Saul and his men went to seek [him]. And they told David; and he came down from the rock, and abode in the wilderness of Maon. And Saul heard [that], and he pursued after David in the wilderness of Maon.
Hele aku la o Saula a me kona poe kanaka e imi ia ia; a hai aku lakou ia Davida, a iho mai ia i ka pohaku, a noho ma ka waonahele o Maona. A lohe o Saula, hahai aku la ia mahope o Davida ma ka waonahele o Maona.
26 And Saul went on this side of the mountain, and David and his men on that side of the mountain; and David made haste to get away from Saul; and Saul and his men sought to surround David and his men to take them.
A hele aku la o Saula ma keia aoao o ka mauna, aia o Davida a me kona poe kanaka ma kela aoao o ka mauna: hele koke aku la o Davida no ka makau ia Saula; no ka mea, ua hoopuni o Saula a me kona poe kanaka ia Davida a me kona poe kanaka e hopu ia lakou.
27 But there came a messenger to Saul, saying, Haste thee and come; for the Philistines have made a raid against the land.
A hele mai he elele ia Saula, i mai la, E wikiwiki oe, e hoi mai; no ka mea, ua hiki mai ko Pilisetia ma ka aina.
28 And Saul returned from pursuing after David, and went against the Philistines; therefore they called that place Sela-hammahlekoth.
No ia mea, hoi aku la o Saula mai ka hahai ana ia Davida, a hele ku e aku la i ko Pilisetia: a kapa aku la lakou i ka inoa o ia wahi, o Selahamalekota.
29 And David went up from thence, and abode in the strongholds of Engedi.
Pii ae la o Davida mailaila aku, a noho iloko o na wahi paa ma Enegedi.
