I Samuela 17
1 HOAKOAKOA ae la ko Pilisetia i ko lakou poe kaua e kaua mai, a ua houluuluia lakou ma Soko, no Iuda, a hoomoana iho la mawaena o Soko a me Azeka, ma Epesa-damima.
And the Philistines gathered together their hosts, unto battle, and they were gathered together unto Socoh, which belongeth unto Judah, —and they encamped between Socoh and Azekah in Ephes-dammim;
2 A akoakoa o Saula a me na kanaka o ka Iseraela, a hoomoana iho la ma ke awawa o Ela, a hooponopono i ke kaua e ku e i ko Pilisetia.
and, Saul and the men of Israel, gathered themselves together, and encamped in the vale of Elah, and set the army in array against the Philistines.
3 Ku ae la ko Pilisetia maluna o ka puu ma kekahi aoao, a ku ae la hoi ka Iseraela maluna o ka puu ma kekahi aoao: a o ke awawa iwaena o lakou.
And, the Philistines, were standing near the hill on one side, and, the Israelites, were standing near the hill on the other side, —while, the valley, was between them.
4 A puka mai la kekahi kanaka koa no ka poe o ko Pilisetia, o Golia kona inoa no Gata, o kona kiekie hookahi ia anana a me na kapuwai eha.
And there came forth a champion out of the camp of the Philistines, Goliath, his name, from Gath, —his height, six cubits and a span;
5 A he mahiole keleawe ma kona poo, a he pale umauma unahe kona, a o ke kaumaha o ia pale umauma, elima tausani sekela keleawe.
with a helmet of bronze on his head, and, with a scaly coat of mail, was he clad, —the weight of the coat, being five thousand shekels of bronze;
6 A he mau pale keleawe ma kona wawae, a he pale keleawe mawaena o kona mau poohiwi.
and, greaves of bronze, on his feet, —and, a javelin of bronze, between his shoulders;
7 A o ke au o kana ihe, ua like ia me ka laau o ka mea hana lole, a o ka pahi o kana ihe, he aono haneri sekela hao, ma ke kaupaona: a hele kekahi kanaka imua ona e hali ana i ka pale kaua.
and, the shaft of his spear, was like a weaver’s beam, and, the flashing head of his spear, was six hundred shekels of iron, —and, his shield-bearer, was coming on before him.
8 Ku ae la ia a kahea mai la i ka poe kaua o ka Iseraela, i mai la ia lakou, No ke aha la oukou i hele mai ai e hooponopono i ke kaua? Aole anei wau he Pilisetia, a o oukou he poe kauwa na Saula? e wae oukou i kekahi kanaka no oukou, a e iho mai ia io'u nei.
And he took his stand, and cried unto the ranks of Israel, and said unto them, Wherefore should ye come out, to set in array for battle? Am not, I, a Philistine, while, ye, are servants unto Saul? Choose you a man, and let him come down unto me:
9 Ina e hiki ia ia ke kaua pu me au, a make au ia ia, alaila e lilo makou i kauwa na oukou; aka, i lanakila au maluna ona, a make ia ia'u, alaila e lilo oukou i kauwa na makou, a e hookauwa mai oukou na makou.
If he prevail in fighting with me, and smite me, then will we become your servants, —but, if, I, prevail over him, and smite him, then shall ye become our servants, and serve, us.
10 I mai la ua kanaka la no ko Pilisetia, Ke aa aku nei au i ka poe kaua o ka Iseraela i keia la; e ho mai oukou i kekahi kanaka i hoa kaua no'u.
And the Philistine said—I, reproach the ranks of Israel, this day, —give me a man, that we may fight together.
11 A lohe ae la o Saula a me ka Iseraela a pau i ka olelo a ke kanaka no ko Pilisetia, weliweli lakou, a makau loa iho la.
When Saul and all Israel heard these words of the Philistine, they were dismayed, and feared exceedingly.
12 A o Davida, oia ke keiki a ua kanaka la no Eperata no Betelehema o Iuda, o Iese kona inoa; a ewalu ana keiki: a i ka wa ia Saula, ua elemakule ia iwaena o kanaka.
Now, David, was the son of that Ephrathite of Bethlehem-judah, whose, name, was Jesse, and, who, had eight sons, —and, the man, in the days of Saul was old, advanced in years.
13 A o na keiki mua ekolu a Iese hele lakou mamuli o Saula i ke kaua: a o ka inoa o na keiki ekolu i hele i ke kaua, o Eliaba ka hanau mua, a mahope mai ona, o Abinadaba, a o Sama ke kolu.
And the three eldest sons of Jesse had followed Saul to the battle, —and, the names of his three sons who went into the battle, were Eliab the firstborn, and, the next to him, Abinadab, and, the third, Shammah.
14 A o Davida ka pokii: a hahai aku la na keiki mua ekolu mahope o Saula.
But, as for David, he, was the youngest, —and, the three eldest, followed Saul;
15 Aka, o Davida, hele aku la ia a hoi hou ae mai o Saula mai e malama i na hipa o kona makuakane ma Betelehema.
whereas, David, kept going and returning from Saul, —to tend his father’s sheep at Bethlehem.
16 A hookokoke mai no ua kanaka Pilisetia la i kakahiaka a me ke ahiahi, a hoike mai ia ia iho i na la he kanaha.
And the Philistine drew near morning and evening, —and presented himself forty days.
17 I aku la o Iese ia Davida i kana keiki, Ano e lawe aku oe na kou mau hoahanau i hookahi epa o keia ai i pulehuia, a i keia mau pai palaoa he umi, a e holo i kou mau hoahanau ma kahi i hoomoana'i i ke kaua.
And Jesse said unto David his son, Take, I pray thee, unto thy brethren—this ephah of parched corn, and these ten loaves, —and run to the camp unto thy brethren;
18 A e lawe oe i keia mau pai waiupaa he umi na ka lunatausani, a e ike oe i ka pono o kou mau hoahanau, a e lawe mai i ko lakou mea hooiaio.
also these ten slices of soft cheese, shalt thou take to the captain of their thousand, —and, as for thy brethren, give good heed to their welfare, their pledge, also shalt thou receive.
19 A o Saula, o lakou, a me na kanaka a pau o ka Iseraela, aia no ma ke awawa o Ela, e kaua ana i ko Pilisetia.
Now, Saul, and they, and all the men of Israel, were in the vale of Elah, ready to fight with the Philistines.
20 Ala ae la o Davida i kakahiaka nui, a waiho i na hipa me ke kahu, a lawe ae la a hele aku e like me ka Iese i kauoha mai ai ia ia; a hiki aku ia ma kahi o na kaa, a e hele ana ka poe koa i ke kaua, a uwo lakou i ke kaua.
So then David rose up early in the morning, and entrusted the sheep to a keeper, and took up [the provisions] and went his way, as Jesse had commanded him, —and came into the circular rampart, as, the force, was going forth into the ranks, and shouted for the fight.
21 A ua hoouka aku ka Iseraela a me ko Pilisetia i ke kaua, o kekahi kaua ma ke alo o kekahi kaua.
So Israel and the Philistines set in array for battle, army against army.
22 A waiho aku la o Davida i na mea mai ona aku la ma ka lima o ka mea malama ia mea, a holo aku la i ke kaua, a hele e ninau i ka pono o kona mau hoahanau.
Then David entrusted the provisions that were upon him to the care of the keeper of the stores, and ran unto the ranks, —and came and asked for the welfare of his brethren.
23 Ia ia i kamailio ai me lakou, aia hoi, pii mai la ua kanaka koa la, no ko Pilisetia, o Golia kona inoa no Gata, mai ka poe kaua o ko Pilisetia mai, a olelo mai e like me kela olelo: a lohe o Davida.
Now, as he was speaking with them, lo! the champion coming up, Goliath the Philistine, by name, of Gath, [coming up] out of the ranks of the Philistines, and he spake according to these words, —and David heard [them].
24 A o na kanaka a pau o ka Iseraela, a ike aku la lakou ia ia, holo lakou mai kona maka aku, a makau nui iho la.
Now, all the men of Israel, when they saw the man, fled from before him, and feared exceedingly.
25 I mai la na kanaka o ka Iseraela, Ua ike anei oukou ia kanaka i pii mai ai? no ka mea, ua pii mai ia e aa i ka Iseraela: a o ke kanaka e pepehi ia ia, e hoolako mai ke alii ia ia i ka waiwai nui, a e haawi mai hoi i kana kaikamahine nana, a e hookaawale ae ia i ka hale o kona makuakane iwaena o ka Iseraela, aole e hookupu.
And the men of Israel said—Have ye seen this man that is coming up? For, to reproach Israel, is he coming. So then it shall be, that, the man that shall smite him, the same, will the king enrich with great riches, and, his own daughter, will give him, and, his father’s house, will he make free in Israel.
26 Olelo aku la o Davida i na kanaka e ku pu ana me ia, i aku la, Heaha ka mea e hanaia mai ai i ke kanaka, nana e pepehi keia kanaka Pilisetia, a e lawe aku i ka hoino mai ka Iseraela aku? owai la keia Pilisetia i okipoepoe ole ia, i aa mai ai ia i ka poe kaua o ke Akua ola?
Then spake David unto the men that were standing by him, saying, What shall be done to the man that shall smite yonder Philistine, and so shall take away reproach from off Israel? For who is this uncircumcised Philistine that he hath reproached the ranks of a Living God?
27 Olelo mai la na kanaka ia ia peneia, i mai la, Pela no e hanaia mai ai i ke kanaka, nana ia e pepehi.
And the people answered him, according to this word saying, —So, shall it be done to the man that shall smite him.
28 A lohe ae la o Eliaba kona kaikuaana i kana olelo ana'ku i na kanaka; a ua hoaia ka inaina o Eliaba ia Davida, i aku la, No ke aha la oe i hele mai ia nei? me wai la oe i waiho ai i hela poe hipa uuku ma ka waonahele? Ua ike au i kou haaheo, a me ka hewa o kou naau; no ka mea, ua hele mai oe e ike i ke kaua.
Now Eliab his eldest brother heard when he spake unto the men, —then was kindled the anger of Eliab against David, and he said—Wherefore is it that thou hast come down? and to whom hast thou entrusted those few sheep in the wilderness? I, know thy pride, and the foolishness of thy heart, for, to see the battle, hast thou come down.
29 I aku la o Davida, Heaha ka'u i hana'i ano? Aole anei he kumu?
And David said, What have I done, now? Was there not, a cause?
30 Huli ae la ia mai ona aku la i kekahi e ae, a olelo aku la e like me kela olelo; a i mai la na kanaka e like me mamua.
Then turned he from him unto another, and said—according to this word, —and the people returned him an answer, like the first.
31 A loheia na olelo a Davida i olelo ai, hai aku la lakou imua o Saula; a kii aku la oia ia ia.
And the words which David spake were overheard, —and, when they told them before Saul, he summoned him.
32 I aku la o Davida ia Saula, Mai hookaumahaia ka naau o kekahi kanaka nona; e hele no kau kauwa e kaua pu me ua kanaka Pilisetia la.
And David said unto Saul, Let not the heart of my lord fail, because of him, —thy servant, will go, and fight with this Philistine.
33 I mai la o Saula ia Davida, Aole e hiki ia oe ke hele ku e i keia kanaka Pilisetia, e kaua pu me ia: no ka mea, he opiopio oe, aka oia, he kanaka koa ia mai kona wa opiopio mai.
And Saul said unto David—Thou art not able to go against this Philistine, to fight with him, —for, a youth, art, thou, but, he, a man of war, from his youth.
34 I aku la o Davida ia Saula, Ua malama kau kauwa i na hipa o kona makuakane, a hele mai la ka liona, a me ka bea, a lawe aku i kekahi keikihipa no ka poe hipa.
Then said David unto Saul, Thy servant used to tend his father’s sheep, —and there would come a lion, or a bear, and carry off a lamb out of the flock;
35 Hahai aku la au ia ia, a pepehi ia ia, a hoopakele ia mea mai kona waha mai; a i kona ku e mai ia'u, lalau aku la au i kona umiumi, a pepehi iho la ia ia, a make ia ia'u.
and I would go out after him, and smite him, and rescue it out of his mouth, —and, if he rose against me, I would catch him by his beard, and smite him, and slay him.
36 A o ka liona a me ka bea, ua make laua a elua i kau kauwa: a o keia Pilisetia okipoepoe ole ia, e like auanei ia me kekahi o laua, no kona aa ana i ka poe kaua o ke Akua ola.
Thy servant could slay, either a lion or a bear, —and, this uncircumcised Philistine, shall become, as one of them, for he hath reproached the ranks of a Living God.
37 I aku la hoi o Davida, O Iehova, ka mea nana au i hoopakele mai ka wawae aku o ka liona, a mai ka wawae aku o ka bea, nana no au e hoopakele mai ka lima aku o keia kanaka Pilisetia. I mai la o Saula ia Davida, O hele, o Iehova pu kekahi me oe.
And David said, Yahweh, who hath rescued me out of the power of the lion, and out of the power of the bear, he, will rescue us out of the hand of this Philistine. Then said Saul unto David—Go! and, Yahweh, will be with thee.
38 Hoaahu aku la o Saula ia Davida i kona aahu kaua, a kau aku la i ka mahiole keleawe ma kona poo, a hookomo ia ia i ka puliki koa.
And Saul clad David with his own military coat, and set a helmet of bronze upon his head, —and clad him with a coat of mail.
39 Kaei iho la o Davida i kana pahikaua maluna o na mea kaua, a manao iho la e hele; aka, no ka hoao ole ia, i aku la o Davida ia Saula, Aole au e hiki ke hele me keia mau mea; no ka mea, aole au i hoao. Kala ae la o Davida ia mau mea mai ona aku la.
And David girded his sword above his military coat, but was reluctant to go, for he had not proved them, —so David said unto Saul—I cannot go in these, for I have not proved them. And David put them off him.
40 Lawe aku la ia i kona kookoo ma kona lima, ohi iho la ia i na ala elima no ke kahawai, a hahao iloko o ke kieko kahuhipa nona, a iloko o ka aa; a ma kona lima kana maa: a hookokoke aku la ia i ke kanaka Pilisetia.
Then took he his stick in his hand, and chose him five smooth stones out of the torrent-bed, and put them in the shepherd’s-pouch which he had—even in the wallet, and had his sling in his hand, —and so drew near unto the Philistine.
41 A hele mai ke kanaka Pilisetia, a hookokoke mai ia Davida, a imua ona ke kanaka nana i hali ka palekaua.
And the Philistine came on and on, and drew near unto David, —and the man carrying the shield was before him.
42 Nana ae la ke kanaka Pilisetia, a ike mai la ia Davida, hoowahawaha mai la ia ia; no ka mea, he opiopio oia, a he ehu, a maikai ke nana aku.
And, when the Philistine looked about, and saw David, he disdained him, —for he was a youth, and ruddy, a stripling of fair countenance.
43 I mai la ke kanaka Pilisetia ia Davida, He ilio anei wau, i hele mai oe io'u nei me ke kookoo? A hoino mai la ke kanaka Pilisetia ia Davida ma kona mau akua.
Then said the Philistine unto David, A dog, am, I, that thou art coming unto me, with sticks? And the Philistine cursed David, by his god.
44 I mai la ka Pilisetia ia Davida, E hele mai io'u nei, a e haawi aku au i kou io i na manu o ka lewa, a me na holoholona o ke kula.
And the Philistine said unto David, —Come, unto me, that I may give thy flesh to the birds of heaven, and to the beasts of the field.
45 I aku la o Davida i ka Pilisetia, Ke hele mai la oe io'u nei me ka pahikaua, a me ka ihe, a me ka palekaua: aka owau, ke hele aku nei au iou la ma ka inoa o Iehova o na kaua, ke Akua o ko Iseraela poe kaua au i aa mai ai.
Then said David unto the Philistine—Thou, art coming unto me with sword, and with spear, and with javelin, —but, I, am coming unto thee in the name of Yahweh of hosts, God of the ranks of Israel which thou hast reproached.
46 I keia la, e haawi mai o Iehova ia oe iloko o kuu lima, a e pepehi aku au ia oe, a e lawe aku au i kou poo mai ou aku la; a e haawi aku au i keia la i na kupapau o ko Pilisetia poe kaua na na manu o ka lewa, a na na holoholona o ka honua; i ike ai ko ka honua a pau, he Akua no iloko o ka Iseraela.
This day, will Yahweh deliver thee into my hand, and I will smite thee, and take thy head from off thee, and will give thy dead body and the dead bodies of the host of Philistines, this day, unto the birds of heaven, and unto the wild beasts of the earth, —that all the earth may know that Israel hath a God;
47 A e ike keia ahakanaka a pau, aole e hoola mai o Iehova me ka pahikaua, a me ka ihe: no ka mea, no Iehova ke kaua, a e haawi mai oia ia oe iloko o ko makou lima.
and that all this gathered host may know that, not with sword and with spear, doth Yahweh save, —for, unto Yahweh, belongeth the battle, and he will deliver you into our hand.
48 A i ka wa i ku ae ke kanaka Pilisetia, a hele, a hookokoke e halawai me Davida, lalelale iho la o Davida, a holo aku la i ka poe kaua e halawai me ua kanaka Pilisetia la.
And it came to pass, when the Philistine arose, and came and drew near to meet David, that David hasted, and ran toward the ranks to meet the Philistine.
49 A hou iho la o Davida i kona lima iloko o ka aa, a lawe mai i kekahi ala, a maa aku la, a pa aku la i ka lae o ka Pilisetia, a komo iho la ka ala iloko o kona lae, haule iho la ia ma ka honua ilalo ke alo.
And David thrust his hand into his pouch, and took from thence a stone, and slang it, and smote the Philistine, in his forehead, —that the stone sank into his forehead, and he fell upon his face, to the earth.
50 A lanakila o Davida maluna o ka Pilisetia me ka maa a me ka ala, a pepehi aku la i ka Pilisetia, a make ia; aole nae he pahikaua ma ka lima o Davida.
Thus David prevailed over the Philistine, with the sling and with the stone, and smote the Philistine, and slew him, —but, sword, was there none in the hand of David.
51 A holo aku la o Davida, a ku maluna o ke kanaka Pilisetia, a lalau iho i kana pahikaua, a unuhi ae mai loko mai o kona wahi, a pepehi iho la, a oki aku la i kona poo me ia. A ike ae la ko Pilisetia poe, ua make ko lakou kanaka koa, auhee lakou.
So David ran, and stood by the Philistine, and took his sword and drew it out of the sheath thereof, and slew him, and cut off, therewith, his head, —and, when the Philistines saw that their hero was slain, they fled.
52 Ku ae la na kanaka o ka Iseraela a me ka Iuda, hooho aku la, a alualu i ko Pilisetia, a hiki ma ke awawa, a ma na ipuka o Ekerona: a haule iho la na mea eha o na Pilisetia ma ke ala o Saaraima, a hiki i Gata a me Ekerona.
Then arose the men of Israel and Judah, and shouted, and pursued the Philistines, as far as the entrance into Gath, and as far as the gates of Ekron, —and the slain of the Philistines fell in the way to the two gates, even as far as Gath and as far as Ekron.
53 A hoi aku la na mamo a Iseraela mai ke alualu ana i ko Pilisetia, a hao ae la i na halelewa o lakou.
And the sons of Israel returned from hotly pursuing the Philistines, —and plundered their camps.
54 Lawe o Davida i ke poo o ke kanaka Pilisetia, a hali aku la ia mea ma Ierusalema, a waiho aku la ia i kana mea kaua ma kona halelewa.
And David took the head of the Philistine, and brought it into Jerusalem, —but, his armour, put he into his tent.
55 A ike aku la o Saula i ko Davida hele ana e halawai me ke kanaka Pilisetia, ninau aku la oia ia Abenera, i ka luna o ke kaua, E Abenera e, he keiki nawai keia kanaka opiopio? I mai la o Abenera, Ma ke ola o kou uhane, e ke alii, aole au i ike.
And, when Saul saw David going forth to meet the Philistine, he said unto Abner, prince of the host, Whose son is the young man, Abner? And Abner said, By the life of thy soul, O king! I know not.
56 I aku la ke alii, E ninau aku oe i ka mea nana keia kanaka opiopio.
Then said the king, —Ask, thou, whose son the stripling is?
57 A i ko Davida hoi ana, mai ka pepehi ana i ke kanaka no ko Pilisetia, lawe aku la o Abenera ia ia, a alakai aku la ia ia imua o Saula, me ke poo o ke kanaka Pilisetia ma kona lima.
And, when David returned from smiting the Philistine, Abner took him, and brought him before Saul, —with the head of the Philistine in his hand.
58 Ninau aku la o Saula, E ke kanaka opiopio, he keiki oe nawai? I mai la o Davida, He keiki au na kau kauwa, na Iese no Betelehema.
And Saul said unto him, Whose son art, thou, O young man? And David said, Son of thy servant Jesse, the Bethlehemite.
