< I Samuela 14 >

1 A I kekahi la, olelo aku la o Ionatana ke keiki a Saula ike kanaka ui, nana i hali kana mea kaua, Ea, e hele kaua i ka pakaua o ko Pilisetia ma kela aoao. Aka, aole ia i hai aku i kona makuakane.
And when a certain day arrived, Jonathan the son of Saul said to the young man that bore his armor, Come, and let us go over to Messab of the Philistines that is on the other side yonder; but he told not his father.
2 Noho iho la o Saula ma ka aoao mamao loa o Gibea, malalo o ka laau pomegerane ma Migerona: a o na Kanaka me ia, aono paha haneri lakou;
And Saul sat on the top of the hill under the pomegranate tree that is in Magdon, and there were with him about six hundred men.
3 A o Ahia, ke keiki a Ahituba, a ke kaikuaana o Ikaboda, ke keiki a Pinehasa, ke keiki a Eli, ke kahuna a Iehova ma Silo, ua hookomoia ka epoda. Aole i ike na kanaka, ua hala o Ionatana.
And Achia son of Achitob, the brother of Jochabed the son of Phinees, the son of Heli, [was] the priest of God in Selom wearing an ephod: and the people knew not that Jonathan was gone.
4 A ma ke ala a Ionatana i imi ai e hele i ka poe koa o ko Pilisetia, he pohaku oi ma keia aoao, a he pohaku oi ma kela aoao: o Bozeza ka inoa o kekahi, a o Sene ka inoa o kekahi.
And in the midst of the passage whereby Jonathan sought to pass over to the encampment of the Philistines, there was both a sharp rock on this side, and a sharp rock on the other side: the name of the one [was] Bases, and the name of the other Senna.
5 A o ka mea oi o kekahi, ua kiekie ia ma ke kukuluakau e ku pono ana i Mikemasa, a o kekahi ma ke kukuluhema e ku pono ana i Gibea.
The one way [was] northward to one coming to Machmas, and the other way [was] southward to one coming to Gabae.
6 Olelo aku la o Ionatana i ke kanaka ui, nana i hali kana mea kaua, Ea, e hele kaua i kahi paa o ua poe la i okipoepoe ole ia: e hana mai paha o Iehova no kaua; no ka mea, aohe mea keakea ia Iehova, ke hoola ma ka poe nui, a ma ka poe uuku.
And Jonathan said to the young man that bore his armor, Come, let us go over to Messab of these uncircumcised, if [perhaps] the Lord may do something for us; for the Lord is not straitened to save by many or by few.
7 I mai la ka mea nana i hali kana mea kaua ia ia, E hana oe i ka mea a pau maloko o kou naau: o hele; aia hoi, owau pu kekahi me oe e like me kou manao.
And his armor-bearer said to him, Do all that your heart inclines toward: behold, I [am] with you, my heart [is] as your heart.
8 Olelo aku la o Ionatana, Aia hoi, e hele kaua i ua poe kanaka la, a e hoike ia kaua iho ia lakou.
And Jonathan said, Behold, we will go over to the men, and will come down suddenly upon them.
9 Ina e olelo mai lakou ia kaua peneia, E noho malie olua a hiki aku makou io olua la; alaila ku malie kaua ma ko kaua wahi, aole e pii aku io lakou la.
If they should say thus to us, Stand aloof there until we shall send you word; then we will stand still by ourselves, and will not go up against them.
10 Aka, i olelo mai lakou ia kaua peneia, E pii mai olua io makou nei; alaila e pii aku kaua: no ka mea, ua hoolilo mai o Iehova ia lakou i ko kaua lima; a oia ka hoailona no kaua.
[But] if they should say thus to us, Come up to us; then will we go up, for the Lord has delivered them into our hands; this [shall be] a sign to us.
11 Hoike aku la laua ia laua iho i ka poe koa o ko Pilisetia: i ae la ko Pilisetia, E nana i ka poe Hebera e hele mai ana mailoko mai o na lua a lakou i pee ai.
And they both went in to Messab of the Philistines; and the Philistines said, Behold, the Hebrews come forth out of their Caves, where they had hidden themselves.
12 Olelo mai la na kanaka o ka poe koa ia Ionatana, a me ka mea nana i hali kana mea kaua, i mai la, E pii mai olua io makou nei, a e hoike aku makou ia olua i kekahi mea. I aku la Ionatana i ka mea nana i hali kana mea kaua, E pii mai oe mahope o'u; no ka mea, ua hoolilo mai o Iehova ia lakou iloko o ka lima o ka Iseraela.
And the men of Messab answered Jonathan and his armor-bearer, and said, Come up to us, and we will show you a thing: and Jonathan said to his armor-bearer, Come up after me, for the Lord has delivered them into the hands of Israel.
13 Pii ae la o Ionatana ma kona lima, a ma kona wawae, a o ka mea nana i hali kana mea kaua mahope ona: a haule lakou imua o Ionatana; a o ka mea nana i hali kana mea kaua pepehi aku la ia mahope ona.
And Jonathan went up on his hands and feet, and his armor-bearer with him; and they looked on the face of Jonathan, and he struck them, and his armor-bearer did strike [them] after him.
14 A o ka pepehi mua ana a Ionatana a me ka mea nana i hali kana mea kaua, he iwakalua paha kanaka ia, ma kahi kokoke, e like paha me ka hapalua o ka eka aina hookahi.
And the first slaughter which Jonathan and his armor-bearer effected was twenty men, with darts and slings, and pebbles of the field.
15 He haalulu iwaena o ka poe koa ma ke kula, a iwaena o na kanaka a pau; a o ka poe kaua, a o ka poe luku, haalulu iho la lakou, nauwe ka aina; a he haalulu nui.
And there was dismay in the camp, and in the field; and all the people in Messab, and the spoilers were amazed; and they would not act, and the land was terror-struck, and there was dismay from the lord.
16 Nana aku la ka poe kiai o Saula ma Gibea o Beniamina; aia hoi, ua hee aku la ka poe nui, a holo lakou, a hele liilii aku.
And the watchmen of Saul saw in Gabaa of Benjamin, and, behold, the army was thrown into confusion on every side.
17 Olelo aku la o Saula i na kanaka me ia, E helu ano, i ike kakou i ka mea i hele ae mai o kakou aku. Helu aku la lakou, aia hoi, aole o Ionatana, a me ka mea nana i hali kana mea kaua.
And Saul said to the people with him, Number yourselves now, and see who has gone out from you: and they numbered themselves, and behold, Jonathan and his armor-bearer were not found.
18 I aku la o Saula ia Ahia, E lawe mai maanei i ka pahu o ke Akua: no ka mea, i kela manawa, aia no ka pahu o ke Akua me na mamo a Iseraela.
And Saul said to Achia, Bring the ephod; for he wore the ephod in that day before Israel.
19 A ia Saula i kamailio ai me ke kahuna, ua nui loa ka haunaele iwaena o ka poe koa o ko Pilisetia; i aku la o Saula i ke kahuna, E hoi hou mai i kou lima.
And it came to pass while Saul was speaking to the priest, that the sound in the camp of the Philistines continued to increase greatly; and Saul said to the priest, Withdraw your hands.
20 Houluuluia'e la o Saula me na kanaka a pau me ia, a hele aku i ke kaua: aia hoi, ua ku e ka pahikaua a kela kanaka keia kanaka i kona hoa, a ua nui loa ka pioloke.
And Saul went up and all the people that were with him, and they come to the battle: and, behold, [every] man's sword was against his neighbor, a very great confusion.
21 A o ka poe Hebera i noho ai me ko Pilisetia mamua, a i hele pu ai me lakou i kahi hoomoana'i, mai kela wahi keia wahi, o lakou kekahi i hui pu ai me ka Iseraela me Saula a me Ionatana.
And the servants who had been before with the Philistines, who had gone up to the army, turned themselves also to be with the Israelites who were with Saul and Jonathan.
22 A o na kanaka a pau o ka Iseraela i pee ai ma ka mauna o Eperaima, ia lakou i lohe ai, ua holo ko Pilisetia, o lakou no hoi kekahi i hahai mahope o lakou i ke kaua.
And all the Israelites who were hidden in mount Ephraim heard also that the Philistines fled; and they also gather themselves after them to battle: and the Lord saved Israel in that day; and the war passed through Bamoth; and all the people with Saul were about ten thousand men.
23 A hoopakele mai o Iehova i ka Iseraela ia la: a hele aku la ke kaua ma Betavena.
And the battle extended itself to every city in the mount Ephraim.
24 A ua pilikia na kanaka o ka Iseraela ia la: no ka mea, ua hoohiki aku o Saula i na kauaka, i aku la, Poino ke kanaka, ke ai ia i ka ai a hiki i ke ahiahi, i hoopai aku ai au i ko'u poe enemi. Nolaila, aole i ai na kanaka i ka ai.
And Saul committed a great trespass of ignorance in that day, and he lays a curse on the people, saying, Cursed [is] the man who shall eat bread before the evening; so I will avenge myself on my enemy: and none of the people tasted bread, though all the land was dining.
25 A hele na kanaka a pau ma ka ululaau; a he meli maluna o ka aina.
And Jaal was a wood abounding in swarms of bees on the face of the ground.
26 A hiki na kanaka ma ka ululaau, aia hoi, e kahe ana o ka meli, aole ka lima o kekahi kanaka i hoopa aku i kona waha: no ka mea, makau na kanaka i ka hoohiki ana.
And the people went into the place of the bees, and, behold, they continued speaking; and, behold, there was none that put his hand to his mouth, for the people feared the oath of the Lord.
27 Aka, aole i lohe o Ionatana i ke kauoha a kona makuakane i na kanaka i ka hoohiki ana; nolaila, o aku la ia i ke kookoo ma kona lima, a hou iho la iloko o ka waihona meli, a hoopa kona lima i kona waha, a hoomalamalamaia kona mau maka.
And Jonathan had not heard when his father adjured the people; and he reached forth the end of the staff that was in his hand, an dipped it into the honeycomb, and returned his hand to his mouth, and his eyes recovered their sight.
28 Alaila, olelo mai la kekahi o na kanaka, i mai la, Ua kauoha ikaika mai kou makuakane i na kanaka me ka hoohiki, i mai la, Poino ke kanaka, ke ai i ka ai i keia la. A ua nawaliwali na kanaka.
And one of the people answered and said, Your father solemnly adjured the people, saying, Cursed [is] the man who shall eat bread today. And the people were very faint,
29 Olelo aku la o Ionatana, i aku la, Ua hoopilikia ko'u makuakane i ka aina: ke noi aku nei au ia oukou, e nana, ua hoomalamalamaia ko'u mau maka, no kuu hoao ana i kauwahi uuku o keia meli.
and Jonathan knew it, and said, My father has destroyed the land: see how my eyes have received sight [now] that I have tasted a little of this honey.
30 Aole anei he nui aku, ina paha ua ai nui na kanaka i keia la i ka mea o ko lakou poe enemi i loaa ai ia lakou? Aole anei he nui aku ka luku iwaena o ko Pilisetia?
Surely if the people had this day eaten freely of the spoils of their enemies which they found, the slaughter among the Philistines would have been greater.
31 A luku aku la lakou i ko Pilisetia ia la, mai Mikemasa a hiki i Aialona: a ua nawaliwali loa na kanaka.
And on that day he struck some of the Philistines in Machmas; and the people were very weary.
32 Lalau aku la na kanaka i ka waiwai pio, a lawe i na hipa, a me na bipi, a me na bipikeiki, a pepehi iho la ma ka aina; a ai iho la na kanaka me ke koko.
And the people turned to the spoil; and the people took flocks, and herds, and calves, and killed them on the ground, and the people ate with the blood.
33 Hai aku la lakou ia Saula, i aku la, Aia hoi, ke hana hewa nei na kanaka ia Iehova, i ka lakou ai ana me ke koko. I mai la kela, Ua hana pono ole oukou: e olokaa mai i pohaku nui io'u nei i keia la.
And it was reported to Saul, saying, The people have sinned against the Lord, eating with the blood: and Saul said, Out of Getthaim roll a great stone to me hither.
34 Olelo aku la o Saula, E hele oukou iwaena o na kanaka, e i aku ia lakou, E lawe mai io'u nei kela kanaka keia kanaka i kana bipi a me kana hipa, a e pepehi maanei, a ai iho; a mai hana hewa ia Iehova i ka ai ana me ke koko. A lawe mai la na kanaka a pau, o kela kanaka keia kanaka i kana bipi, me ia ia po, a pepehi iho la malaila.
And Saul said, Disperse yourselves among the people, and tell them to bring hither every one his calf, and every one his sheep: and let them kill it on this [stone] and sin not against the Lord in eating with the blood: and the people brought each one that which was in his hand, and they killed [them] there.
35 Hana aku la o Saula i kuahu no Iehova, oia ke kuahu ana i hoomaka ai e hana no Iehova.
And Saul built an altar there to the Lord: this was the first altar that Saul built to the Lord.
36 I aku la o Saula, E hahai aku kakou i ko Pilisetia i ka po, a e luku aku ia lakou a hiki i ka malamalama o ke ao, a mai waiho kakou i kekahi kauaka o lakou. I mai la lakou, E hana oe i ka mea pono i kou maka. I mai la ke kahuna, E hookoke mai nei kakou i ke Akua.
And Saul said, Let us go down after the Philistines this night, and let us plunder among them till the day break, and let us not leave a man among them. And they said, Do all that is good in your sight: and the priest said, let us draw near hither to God.
37 Ninau aku la o Saula i ke Akua, E hahai aku anei au i ko Pilisetia? e hoolilo mai anei oe ia lakou i ka lima o ka Iseraela? Aka, aole ia i olelo mai ia ia ia la.
And Saul enquired of God, If I go down after the Philistines, will you deliver them into the hands of Israel? And he answered him not in that day.
38 Olelo aku la o Saula, E hookokoke mai oukou ia nei, e na alakai o na kanaka; i ike pono kakou i ka mea o keia hewa i keia la.
And Saul said, Bring hither all the chiefs of Israel, and know and see by whom this sin has been committed this day.
39 No ka mea, ma ke ola o Iehova nana i hoola i ka Iseraela, ina paha iloko o Ionatana ka'u keiki keia mea, e make io no ia. Aole kekahi kanaka iwaena o ka Iseraela i olelo mai ia ia.
For as the Lord lives who has saved Israel, if answer should be against my son Jonathan, he shall surely die. And there was no one that answered out of all the people.
40 Olelo aku la ia i ka Iseraela a pau, O oukou ma kekahi aoao, a owau a me Ionatana kuu keiki, ma kekahi aoao. I mai la na kanaka ia Saula, E hana oe i ka mea pono i kou maka.
And he said to all the men of Israel, You shall be under subjection, and I an Jonathan my son will be under subjection: and the people said to Saul, Do that which is good in your sight.
41 Olelo aku la o Saula ia Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela, E hoike mai i ka oiaio. A ua laweia o Saula a me Ionatana: a pakele na kanaka.
And Saul said, O Lord God of Israel, why have you not answered your servant this day? [is] the iniquity in me, or in Jonathan my son? Lord God of Israel, give clear [manifestations]; and if [the lot] should declare this, give, I pray you, to your people of Israel, give, I pray, holiness. And Jonathan and Saul are taken, and the people escaped.
42 I aku la o Saula, E hailona iwaena o maua a me Ionatana kuu keiki. A ua laweia o Ionatana.
And Saul said, Cast [lots] between me and my son Jonathan: whoever the Lord shall cause to be taken by lot, let him die: and the people said to Saul, This thing is not [to be done]: and Saul prevailed against the people, and they cast [lots] between him and Jonathan his son, and Jonathan is taken by lot.
43 Alaila i aku la o Saula ia Ionatana, E hai mai oe ia'u i kau mea i hana'i. Hai aku la o Ionatana, i aku la, Ua hoao iho au i kahi meli uuku wale no me ke kookoo ma kuu lima, aia hoi, e make ana au.
And Saul said to Jonathan, Tell me what you have done: and Jonathan told him, and said, I did indeed taste a little honey, with the end of my staff that was in my hand, and, behold! I [am to] die.
44 I aku la o Saula, Pela ke Akua e hana mai ai, pela io hoi, no ka mea, e make io no oe, e Ionatana.
And Saul said to him, God do so to me, and more also, you shall surely die today.
45 Olelo mai la na kanaka ia Saula, E make anei o Ionatana, nana i hana keia ola nui iwaena o ka Iseraela? Aole loa, ma ke ola o Iehova, aole e haule iho ma ka honua kekahi lauoho o kona poo; no ka mea, ua hana pu aku ia me ke Akua i keia la. A hoopakele aku la na kanaka ia Ionatana, aole ia i make.
And the people said to Saul, Shall he that has wrought this great salvation in Israel be put to death this day? [As] the Lord lives, there shall not fall to the ground one of the hairs of his head; for the people of God have wrought successfully this day. And the people prayed for Jonathan in that day, and he died not.
46 Haalele aku la o Saula i ka hahai ana i ko Pilisetia: a hoi aku la ko Pilisetia i ko lakou wahi.
And Saul went up from following the Philistines; and the Philistines departed to their place.
47 A lawe ae la o Saula i ke aupuni o ka Iseraela, a kana aku la i kona poe enemi a pau, ma na aoao a pau i ko Moaba, a me na mamo a Amona, a me ka Edoma, a me na'lii o Zoba, a me ko Pilisetia, a ma na wahi a pau ana i huli ae, ua lanakila ia.
And Saul received the kingdom, by lot he inherits the office [of ruling] over Israel: and he fought against all his enemies round about, against Moab, and against the children of Ammon, and against the children of Edom, and against Baethaeor, and against the king of Suba, and against the Philistines: wherever he turned, he was victorious.
48 Hana ikaika aku la ia, a luku aku la i ka Ameleka, a hoopakele i ka Iseraela i ka lima o ka poe i luku mai ia lakou.
And he wrought valiantly, and struck Amalec, and rescued Israel out of the hand of them that trampled on him.
49 Eia na keiki a Saula, o Ionatana, o Isui a me Melekisua: a o ka inoa o kana mau kaikamahine elua, o Meraba ka inoa o ke kaikuaana, a o Mikala ka inoa o ke kaikaina.
And the sons of Saul were Jonathan, and Jessiu, and Melchisa: and [these were] the names of his two daughters, the name of the firstborn Merob, and the name of the second Melchol.
50 A o Ahinoama ka inoa o ka wahine a Saula, ke kaikamahine a Ahimaaza; a o ka inoa o kona alihikaua, o Abenera, ke keiki a Nera, kahi makua o Saula.
And the name of his wife was Achinoom, the daughter of Achimaa: and the name of his captain of the host was Abenner, the son of Ner, son of a kinsman of Saul.
51 A o Kisa ka makuakane o Saula: a o Nera ka makuakane o Abenera, ke keiki a Abiela.
And Kis [was] the father of Saul, and Ner, the father of Abenezer, [was] son of Jamin, son of Abiel.
52 A ua nui ke kaua ana i ko Pilisetia i na la a pau o Saula: a ike aku la o Saula i ke kanaka ikaika, a i ke kanaka koaka, lawe aku la kela ia ia nona.
And the war was vehement against the Philistines all the days of Saul; and when Saul saw any mighty man, and any valiant man, then he took them to himself.
