I Samuela 2
1 PULE aku la o Hana, i aku la, O ko'u naau ke hauoli nei iloko o Iehova; O ko'u pepeiaohao ua hookiekieia iloko o Iehova; O ko'u waha ua hoakeaia maluna o ko'u poe enemi: No ka mea, ke hauoli nei au iloko o kou ola.
Hannah prayed, and said: "My heart exults in the LORD. My horn is exalted in my God. My mouth is enlarged over my enemies, because I rejoice in your salvation.
2 Aohe mea hemolele e like me Iehova; No ka mea, aohe mea e ae, o oe wale no la. Aohe pohaku e like me ko kakou Akua.
Truly, there is no one as holy as the LORD. Truly, there is no one besides you, nor is there any rock like our God.
3 Mai olelo hou me ka hookiekie loa; Mai puka hou ka hookano mai ko oukou waha mai: No ka mea, he Akua ike o Iehova, Nana no i kaupaona na hana.
"Do not keep speaking proudly. Do not let arrogance come out of your mouth, for the LORD is a God of knowledge. By him actions are weighed.
4 O na kakaka o ka poe mana ua haki, O ka poe i haalulu ua kakooia me ka ikaika.
"The bows of the mighty men are broken. Those who stumbled are armed with strength.
5 O na mea maona ua hoolimalima ia lakou iho no ka ai; O na mea pololi na noho hoomaha lakou. Pela hoi, o ka mea i pa ua hanau i ehiku; O ka mea keiki he nui ua hoonawaliwaliia.
Those who were full have hired themselves out for bread. Those who were hungry are satisfied. Even the barren has borne seven, and she who has many children languishes.
6 Na Iehova ka pepehi a me ka hoola: Nana i hoohaahaa ilalo i ka halelua, a nana no i hoala hou mai. (Sheol h7585)
"The LORD kills, and makes alive. He brings down to Sheol, and brings up. (Sheol h7585)
7 Na Iehova i hooilihune, a oia no ka mea i waiwai ai: Nana i hoohaahaa, a me ka hookiekie.
The LORD makes poor, and makes rich. He brings low, he also lifts up.
8 Ke hookiekie oia i ka poe ilihune mai ka lepo mai; Ke kaikai ae la ia i ka poe nele mai kahi ino mai, E hoonoho ia lakou me na'lii, E hooili no lakou i ka nohoalii nani: No Iehova na kia o ka honua. Nana i hoonoho ke ao nei maluna o lakou.
He raises up the poor out of the dust. He lifts up the needy from the dunghill, To make them sit with princes, and inherit the throne of glory. For the pillars of the earth are the LORD's. He has set the world on them.
9 Nana no e malama na wawae o kona poe haipule, Aka, e make ka poe hewa iloko o ka pouli; No ka mea, aole ke kanaka e lanakila i ka ikaika.
He will guard the feet of his faithful ones, but the wicked will be put to silence in darkness. For no man will prevail by strength.
10 O na enemi o Iehova e ulupaia lakou; Mai ka lani mai ia e hoohekili mai ai maluna o lakou: Na Iehova e hookolokolo na welau o ka honua; A e haawi mai ia i ka ikaika no kona alii. A e hookiekie hoi i ka pepeiaohao o kona mea i poniia.
The LORD will shatter his adversaries. He will thunder against them in the sky. "The LORD will judge the farthest parts of the earth. He will give strength to his king, and exalt the horn of his anointed."
11 A hele aku la o Elekana i kona hale ma Rama: a hookauwa aku ke keiki na Iehova imua o Eli ke kahuna.
Elkanah went to Ramah to his house. The child served the LORD before Eli the priest.
12 A o na keiki a Eli, he mau keiki hewa; aole i ike laua ia Iehova.
Now the sons of Eli were base men; they did not know the LORD.
13 Ua maa no ia mea o na kahuna me na kanaka, a i kaumaha aku kekahi kanaka i ka mohai, hele mai ke kauwa a ke kahuna me ke o manamana kolu ma kona lima i ka manawa i hoolapalapa ai i ka io;
The custom of the priests with the people was that when any man offered sacrifice, the priest's servant came, while the flesh was boiling, with a fork of three teeth in his hand;
14 A hou iho la iloko o ka ipu, o ka ipu lepo paha, o ka ipu keleawe paha, o ka ipu hao paha, a o ka mea a pau i loaa i ke o, na ke kahuna ia i lawe nana iho. Pela no lakou i hana'i ma Silo i ka Iseraela a pau i hele ai ilaila.
and he struck it into the pan, or kettle, or caldron, or pot; all that the fork brought up the priest took therewith. So they did in Shiloh to all the Israelites who came there.
15 Mamua hoi o ke puhi ana i ka momona, hele mai la ke kauwa a ke kahuna, a i mai la i ke kanaka e kaumaha ana, E haawi mai i ka io no ka ohinu ana na ke kahuna; aole ona makemake ia oe i ka io i hoolapalapaia, aka, he io maka no.
Yes, before they burnt the fat, the priest's servant came, and said to the man who sacrificed, "Give meat to roast for the priest; for he will not accept boiled meat from you, but raw."
16 Ina i i aku kekahi kanaka ia ia, He pono no lakou e puhi koke i ka momona, alaila e lawe oe i ka mea a kou naau e makemake ai: a i mai la kela ia ia, Ano oe e haawi mai, a i ole, na'u no e kaili wale.
If the man said to him, "Let the fat be burned first, and then take all of it which your soul desires"; then he would say, "No, but you shall give it to me now; and if not, I will take it by force."
17 No ia mea, ua nui loa ka hewa o ua mau kanaka opiopio la imua o Iehova; no ka mea, ua hoowahawaha na kanaka i ka mohai a Iehova.
The sin of the young men was very great before the LORD; for they despised the offering of the LORD.
18 Aka o Samuela, he keiki, lawelawe no ia imua o Iehova, i kaeiia i ka epoda olona.
But Samuel ministered before the LORD, being a child, clothed with a linen ephod.
19 Hana iho la kona makuwahine i wahi lole komo uuku nona, a lawe mai ia mea ia ia i kela makahiki keia makahiki, ia ia i hele mai ai me kana kane e kaumaha aku i ka mohai makahiki.
Moreover his mother made him a little robe, and brought it to him from year to year, when she came up with her husband to offer the yearly sacrifice.
20 Hoomaikai aku la o Eli la Elekana a me kana wahine, i aku la, Na Iehova i haawi mai ia oe i keiki na keia wahine no ka mea noi ana i noi ai ia Iehova. A hoi aku la laua i ko laua wahi.
And Eli would bless Elkanah and his wife, and said, "May the LORD repay you with offspring by this woman for the gift which she made to the LORD." And the man returned to his home.
21 A ike mai la o Iehova ia Hana, hapai ae la ia, a hanau mai la na keikikane ekolu a me na kaikamahine elua. Ua nui ae o Samuela ke keiki imua o Iehova.
The LORD visited Hannah, and she bore more children, three sons and two daughters. The child Samuel grew before the LORD.
22 A ua elemakule loa o Eli, a ua lohe no ia i na mea a pau a kana mau keiki i hana'i i ka Iseraela a pau; i ko laua moe ana me na wahine i houluuluia ma ka puka o ka halelewa anaina.
Now Eli was very old; and he heard what his sons did to the children of Israel (and how that they lay with the women who served at the door of the Tent of Meeting).
23 Ninau aku la oia ia laua, No ke aha la olua i hana'i i keia mau mea? Ua lohe au i keia poe kanaka a pau i ka olua hana ino ana.
And he said to them, "Why do you do such things as these that I hear being said of you from the mouth of the people of the LORD?
24 He oiaio, e ka'u mau keiki, aole he mea pono ka'u i lohe ai; ua hoolilo olua i na kanaka o Iehova e hana hewa ai.
No, my sons, do not do this. For it is not a good report that I hear the people of the LORD spreading.
25 Ina i hana hewa kekahi ia hai, alaila e hooponopono na lunakanawai ia ia; aka, i hana hewa ke kanaka ia Iehova, owai ka mea e pule aku nona? Aole no hoi laua i hoolohe i ka leo o ko laua makuakane; no ka mea, manao no o Iehova e pepehi mai ia laua.
If one man sins against another, he shall appeal to the LORD; but if a man sins against the LORD, who shall entreat for him?" But, they did not listen to the voice of their father, because the LORD intended to kill them.
26 A nui ae la o Samuela ke keiki: a ua alohaia oia e Iehova a me kanaka.
The child Samuel grew on, and increased in favor both with the LORD, and also with men.
27 Hele mai la kekahi kanaka o ke Akua ia Eli, i mai la ia ia, Ke i mai nei o Iehova peneia, Ua hoike akaka ia anei au i ko ka hale o kou makuakane, ia lakou i noho ai i Aigupita ma ka hale o Parao?
A man of God came to Eli, and said, "Thus says the LORD, I plainly revealed myself to the house of your father, when they were slaves in Egypt to the house of Pharaoh.
28 A ua wae anei au ia ia noloko mai o na hanauna kanaka a pau o ka Iseraela i kahuna na'u, e kaumaha aku maluna o ko'u kuahu, e kuni i ka mea ala, e hookomo i ka epoda imua o'u? a ua haawi anei i ko ka hale o kou makuakane i na mohaikuni a pau a na mamo a Iseraela?
And I chose him out of all the tribes of Israel to be my priest, to go up to my altar, to burn incense, to wear an ephod before me. And I gave to the house of your father all the offerings by fire of the children of Israel as food.
29 No ke aha la oukou e keehi aku ai i kuu mohai, a me kuu alana a'u i kauoha aku ai ma [kuu] hale; a hoohanohano oe i kau mau keiki maluna o'u e hoomomona ana oukou ia oukou iho i na mea maikai o na mohai a pau a ka Iseraela, a kuu poe kanaka?
Why do you look down on my sacrifice and on my offering, which I have commanded for my dwelling place, and honor your sons above me, to make yourselves fat with the best of all the offerings of Israel my people?'
30 No ia mea, ke olelo mai nei o Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela, I iho la au, o ko ka hale ou, a me ko ka hale o kou makuakane, e hele mau loa lakou imua o'u; aka ano, ke i mai nei o Iehova, Hoole aku la au ia; no ka mea, o na mea e hoomaikai mai ia'u, na'u lakou e hoomaikai aku; a o na mea e hoowahawaha mai ia'u, e hoowahawahaia lakou.
"Therefore the LORD, the God of Israel, says, 'I said indeed that your house, and the house of your father, should walk before me forever.' But now the LORD says, 'Be it far from me; for those who honor me I will honor, and those who despise me shall be lightly esteemed.
31 Aia hoi, e hiki mai ana ka la e oki ai au i kou lima, a me ka lima o ko ka hale o kou makuakane, i ole ai he elemakule iloko o kou hale.
Look, the days come, that I will cut off your descendants, and the descendants of your father's house, that there shall not be an old man in your house.
32 E ike auanei oe i ka popilikia o ka halelewa mawaena o ka maikai ana e hana aku ai i ka Iseraela: aka, aole he elemakule iloko o kou hale i na la a pau.
And you will see distress in the dwelling place, in all that he does good with Israel. And there will not be an old man in your house all the days.
33 A o ke kanaka ou a'u e oki ole ai mai kuu kuahu aku, e lilo ia i mea e hoopau ai i kou maka, a e hookaumaha ai i kou naau: a o na hua a pau o kou hale e make lakou i ka wa ui.
And the man of yours I do not cut off from my altar will be to cause his eyes to fail and to grieve his soul, and all the increase of your house will die by the sword of men.
34 Eia ka hoailona ia oe, o ka mea e hiki mai ana maluna o kau mau keiki elua, o Hopeni a o Pinehasa; i ka la hookahi e make no laua a elua.
"'This shall be the sign to you, that shall come on your two sons, on Hophni and Phinehas: in one day they shall both die.
35 A e hooku auanei au i kahuna pono na'u, nana e hana ka mea ku i ko'u manao, a me ko'u naau: a na'u no e kukulu i hale mau nona, a e hele mau loa no ia imua o ko'u mea i poniia.
I will raise me up a faithful priest, that shall do according to that which is in my heart and in my mind. I will build him a sure house; and he shall walk before my anointed forever.
36 A o kela mea keia mea i waihoia iloko o kou hale e hele mai no a e kulou iho imua ona no kekahi kala uuku, a me kekahi pai berena, a e i mai, Ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e haawi mai ia'u i wahi oihana kahuna, i ai iho ai au i kahi berena.
It shall happen, that everyone who is left in your house shall come and bow down to him for a piece of silver and a loaf of bread, and shall say, "Please put me into one of the priests' offices, that I may eat a morsel of bread."'"
