1 Samuel 6
1 The LORD’s ark was in the country of the Philistines seven months.
I NA malama ehiku i noho ai ka pahu o Iehova ma ka aina o ko Pilisetia.
2 The Philistines called for the priests and the diviners, saying, “What shall we do with the LORD’s ark? Show us how we should send it to its place.”
Kahea aku la ko Pilisetia i na kahuna, a me ka poe kilokilo, i aku la, Heaha ka makou e hana aku ai i ka pahu o Iehova? E hoike mai ia makou, me ke aha la makou e lawe aku ai ia mea ma kona wahi?
3 They said, “If you send away the ark of the God of Israel, don’t send it empty; but by all means return a trespass offering to him. Then you will be healed, and it will be known to you why his hand is not removed from you.”
I mai la lakou, Ina e lawe aku oukou i ka pahu o ke Akua o ka Iseraela, mai lawe nele aku; aka, e hoihoi aku me ka mohaihala nona: alaila e hoolaia oukou, a e hoikeia hoi ia oukou ka mea i lawe ole ia aku ai kona lima mai o oukou aku.
4 Then they said, “What should the trespass offering be which we shall return to him?” They said, “Five golden tumors and five golden mice, for the number of the lords of the Philistines; for one plague was on you all, and on your lords.
Ninau aku la lakou, Heaha ka mohaihala a makou e hoihoi aku ai nona? I mai la lakou, Elima puupuu koko gula, elima iole gula, ma ka helu ana o na haku o ko Pilisetia: no ka mea, hookahi no mai maluna o lakou a pau, a maluna hoi o ko oukou mau haku.
5 Therefore you shall make images of your tumors and images of your mice that mar the land; and you shall give glory to the God of Israel. Perhaps he will release his hand from you, from your gods, and from your land.
No ia mea, e hana oukou i na kii no ko oukou puupuu koko, a me na kii no ko oukou iole, nana i hana ino ka aina; a e hoonani aku oukou i ke Akua o ka Iseraela: malia paha e hoomama mai ia i kona lima mai luna ae o oukou, a me ko oukou mau akua, a me ko oukou aina.
6 Why then do you harden your hearts as the Egyptians and Pharaoh hardened their hearts? When he had worked wonderfully among them, didn’t they let the people go, and they departed?
No ke aha la oukou, e hoopaakiki nei i ko oukou naau, e like me ko Aigupita, a me Parao i hoopaakiki ai i ko lakou naau? Ia ia i hana mana ai iwaena o lakou, aole anei ia i kuu aku ia lakou, a hele lakou?
7 “Now therefore take and prepare yourselves a new cart and two milk cows on which there has come no yoke; and tie the cows to the cart, and bring their calves home from them;
No ia mea, e hana oukou i kaa hou, a lawe i na bipiwahine waiu elua, aole i kau ka auamo maluna o laua, a e nakii i na bipi ma ke kaa, a e lawe i ka laua mau keiki mai o laua aku la:
8 and take the LORD’s ark and lay it on the cart. Put the jewels of gold, which you return him for a trespass offering, in a box by its side; and send it away, that it may go.
A e lawe aku oukou i ka pahu o Iehova, a kau maluna o ke kaa, a e hahao i na mea gula a oukou e hoihoi aku i mohaihala nona maloko o kahi pahu ma ka aoao; a e hoouna aku oukou ia mea, i hele aku ia.
9 Behold, if it goes up by the way of its own border to Beth Shemesh, then he has done us this great evil; but if not, then we shall know that it is not his hand that struck us. It was a chance that happened to us.”
A e nana oukou, ina paha e pii aku ia ma ke ala o kona mokuna, i Betesemesa, alaila, ua hana mai ia i keia ino nui no kakou: aka, i ole. alaila e ike kakou, aole kona lima i hahau mai ia kakou; ua hiki wale mai ia mea ia kakou.
10 The men did so, and took two milk cows and tied them to the cart, and shut up their calves at home.
A hana aku la na kanaka pela; a lawe aku la i na bipiwahine waiu elua, a nakii ia laua ma ke kaa, a hoopaa lakou i ka laua mau keiki maloko o ka hale.
11 They put the LORD’s ark on the cart, and the box with the golden mice and the images of their tumors.
Kau aku la lakou i ka pahu o Iehova maluna o ke kaa, a i kekahi pahu me na iole gula, a me na kii o ko lakou puupuu koko.
12 The cows took the straight way by the way to Beth Shemesh. They went along the highway, lowing as they went, and didn’t turn away to the right hand or to the left; and the lords of the Philistines went after them to the border of Beth Shemesh.
A hele pololei aku la na bipi ma ke ala e hiki ai i Betesemesa, ma ke ala loa ka hele ana, a hele laua me ka uwo ana, aole laua i huli ae ma ka akau, aole hoi ma ka hema; a hele na haku o ko Pilisetia mahope o laua, a hiki i ka mokuna o Betesemesa.
13 The people of Beth Shemesh were reaping their wheat harvest in the valley; and they lifted up their eyes and saw the ark, and rejoiced to see it.
A e oki ana ko Betesemesa i ka lakou palaoa ma ke awawa: alawa ae la ko lakou maka iluna, a ike aku la i ka pahu, a olioli lakou i ka ike ana aku.
14 The cart came into the field of Joshua of Beth Shemesh, and stood there, where there was a great stone. Then they split the wood of the cart and offered up the cows for a burnt offering to the LORD.
A hele aku la ke kaa maloko o ka mahinaai o Iosua no Betesemesa, a ku malaila; a malaila ka pohaku nui; a wawahi lakou i ka laau o ke kaa, a kaumaha aku la lakou i na bipi i mohaikuni ia Iehova.
15 The Levites took down the LORD’s ark and the box that was with it, in which the jewels of gold were, and put them on the great stone; and the men of Beth Shemesh offered burnt offerings and sacrificed sacrifices the same day to the LORD.
Lawe mai la na Levi i ka pahu o Iehova, a me kekahi pahu i waiho pu ai me ia me na mea gula maloko, a kau aku la ia mea maluna o ka pohaku nui; a kaumaha aku na kanaka o Betesemesa i na mohaikuni, a ia la, kaumaha aku la no hoi lakou i na mohai ia Iehova.
16 When the five lords of the Philistines had seen it, they returned to Ekron the same day.
A ike aku la na haku elima o ko Pilisetia ia mea, hoi aku la lakou ma Ekerona ia la.
17 These are the golden tumors which the Philistines returned for a trespass offering to the LORD: for Ashdod one, for Gaza one, for Ashkelon one, for Gath one, for Ekron one;
Eia na puupuu koko gula a ko Pilisetia i hoihoi aku ai i mohaihala ia Iehova: no Asedoda kekahi, no Gaza kekahi, no Asekelona kekahi, no Gata kekahi, no Ekerona kekahi;
18 and the golden mice, according to the number of all the cities of the Philistines belonging to the five lords, both of fortified cities and of country villages, even to the great stone on which they set down the LORD’s ark. That stone remains to this day in the field of Joshua of Beth Shemesh.
A me na iole gula e like me ka helu ana o na kulanakauhale no na haku elima o ko Pilisetia, na kulanakauhale pa pohaku, a me na kauhale papu a hiki i ua pohaku nui o Abela, kahi a lakou i kau ai i ka pahu o Iehova; a ilaila ua pohaku la ma ka mahinaai o Iosua no Betesemesa, a hiki i keia la.
19 He struck of the men of Beth Shemesh, because they had looked into the LORD’s ark, he struck fifty thousand seventy of the men. Then the people mourned, because the LORD had struck the people with a great slaughter.
A luku mai ia i na kanaka o Betesemesa, no ka mea, ua nana lakou iloko o ka pahu o Iehova, luku mai ia i na kanaka, he kanalima no tausani, a he kanahiku kanaka ia. Auwe na kanaka, no ka Iehova pepehi ana mai i na kanaka me ka luku nui.
20 The men of Beth Shemesh said, “Who is able to stand before the LORD, this holy God? To whom shall he go up from us?”
I ae la na kanaka o Betesemesa, Owai la ka mea hiki ke ku imua o Iehova keia Akua Hemolele? A ia wai la oia e hele aku mai o kakou aku?
21 They sent messengers to the inhabitants of Kiriath Jearim, saying, “The Philistines have brought back the LORD’s ark. Come down and bring it up to yourselves.”
Hoouna aku la lakou i na elele i na kanaka o Kiriatiarima, i aku la, Ua hoihoi mai ko Pilisetia i ka pahu o Iehova; e iho mai oukou e lawe aku ia io oukou la.
