II Samuela 21
1 I LAILA no i na la o Davida na makahiki wi ekolu, i kela makahiki i keia makahiki: a ninau aku la Davida ia Iehova. I mai la o Iehova, No Saula ia, a no kona ohana koko; no ka mea, ua pepehi oia i ko Gibeona.
And there was a famine in the days of David three years, year after year; and David sought the face of the Lord. And the Lord said, [There is] guilt upon Saul and his house because of his bloody murder, whereby he killed the Gabaonites.
2 Kii aku la ke alii i ko Gibeona, i aku la ia lakou; (a o ko Gibeona aole lakou no na mamo a Iseraela, no ke koena lakou o ka poe Amori; a ua hoohiki aku na mamo a Iseraela ia lakou: a manao iho la o Saula e pepehi ia lakou no kona manao ikaika i na mamo a Iseraela laua o Iuda.)
And King David called the Gabaonites, and said to them; —(now the Gabaonites are not the children of Israel, but [are] of the remnant of the Amorite, and the children of Israel had sworn to them: but Saul sought to strike them in his zeal for the children of Israel and Juda.)
3 I aku la o Davida i ko Gibeona, Heaha ka'u e hana aku ai no oukou? pehea hoi au e hookalahala aku ai, i hoomaikai mai oukou i ka aina a Iehova i haawi mai ai?
And David said to the Gabaonites, What shall I do to you? and wherewithal shall I make atonement, that you may bless the inheritance of the Lord?
4 I mai la ko Gibeona ia ia, Aole makou e makemake i ke kala, aole hoi i ke gula no Saula a no kana ohana; aole hoi oe e pepehi i kekahi kanaka iloko o ka Iseraela no makou. I aku la kela, O ka mea a oukou e olelo mai ai, oia ka'u e hana aku ai no oukou.
And the Gabaonites said to him, We have no [question about] silver or gold with Saul and with his house; and there is no man for us to put to death in Israel.
5 I mai la lakou i ke alii, O ke kanaka nana makou i hoopau aku, a i noonoo e luku mai ia makou, i noho ole ai makou ma kekahi palena aina o ka Iseraela,
And he said, What say you? speak, and I will do it for you. And they said to the king, The man who would have made an end of us, and persecuted us, who plotted against us to destroy us, let us utterly destroy him, so that he shall have no standing in all the coasts of Israel.
6 E haawiia mai na kanaka ehiku o kana mau keiki ia makou, a e kau aku makou ia lakou iluna no Iehova ma Gibea no Saula o ka mea a Iehova i wae ai. I aku la ke alii, E haawi no wau.
Let one give us seven men of his sons, and let us hang them up in the sun to the Lord in Gabaon of Saul, as chosen out for the Lord. And the king said, I will give [them].
7 Aka, kala aku la ke alii ia Mepiboseta ke keiki a Ionatana ke keiki a Saula, no ka hoohiki ana ia Iehova iwaena o laua, iwaena o Davida laua o Ionatana ke keiki a Saula.
But the king spared Memphibosthe son of Jonathan the son of Saul, because of the oath of the Lord that was between them, even between David and Jonathan the son of Saul.
8 A lawe aku la ke alii i na keikikane elua a Rizepa ke kaikamahine a Aia, i na mea ana i hanau ai na Saula, o Aremoni a o Mepiboseta; a me na keikikane elima a Mikala ke kaikamahine a Saula, na mea ana i hanai ai na Aderiela ke keiki a Barezilai no Meholata.
And the king took the two sons of Respha the daughter of Aia, whom she bore to Saul, Hermonoi and Memphibosthe, and the five sons of Michol daughter of Saul, whom she bore to Esdriel son of Berzelli the Moulathite.
9 A haawi aku la oia ia lakou i na lima o ko Gibeona, a kaawe aku la lakou ia poe maluna o ka puu imua o Iehova; a hina pu iho la lakou a ehiku, a make iho la i na la o ka ohi ai ana, i na la mua o ka ohi bale ana.
And he gave them into the hand of the Gabaonites, and they hanged them up to the sun in the mountain before the lord: and they fell, even the seven together: moreover they were put to death in the days of harvest at the commencement, in the beginning of barley harvest.
10 Lawe ae la o Rizepa ke kaikamahine a Aia i ke kapa inoino, a halii iho la nona maluna o ka pohaku nui, mai ka wa mua o ka ohi bale ana a hiki i ka wa i haule mai ai ka ua mai ka lani mai maluna iho o lakou, a kiai iho la ia i kau ole ai na manu o ka lewa maluna o lakou i ke ao, aole hoi na holoholona o ke kula i ka po.
And Respha the daughter of Aia took sackcloth, and fixed it for herself on the rock in the beginning of barley harvest, until water dropped upon them out of heaven: and she did not suffer the birds of the air to rest upon them by day, nor the beasts of the field by night.
11 A ua haiia aku ia Davida ka mea a Rizepa ke kaikamahine a Aia, ka haiawahine a Saula i hana'i.
And it was told David what Respha the daughter of Aia the concubine of Saul had done, [and they were faint, and Dan, the son of Joa of the offspring of the giants overtook them.]
12 Hele aku la o Davida, a lawe mai la ia i na iwi o Saula a me na iwi o Ionatana kana keiki mai na kanaka o Iabesagileada mai, ka poe nana i lawe malu ia laua mai ke alanui o Betesana mai, kahi a ka poe Pilisetia i kau ai ia laua, i ka wa i pepehi ai ka poe Pilisetia ia Saula i Gileboa.
And David went and took the bones of Saul, and the bones of Jonathan his son, from the men of the sons of Jabis Galaad, who stole them from the street of Baethsan; for the Philistines set them there in the day in which the Philistines struck Saul in Gelbue.
13 Lawe mai la ia i na iwi o Saula a me na iwi o Ionatana kana keiki mai laila mai; a hoiliili ae la lakou i na iwi o ka poe i kaaweia.
And he carried up thence the bones of Saul and the bones of Jonathan his son, and gathered the bones of them that had been hanged.
14 Kanu aku la lakou i na iwi o Saula a o Ionatana kana keiki ma Zela ma ka aina o ka Beniamina, maloko o ka halekupapau no Kisa no kona makuakane: a hana aku la lakou i na mea a pau a ke alii i kena aku ai. A mahope iho ua hoomaliuia'ku ke Akua no ka aina.
And they buried the bones of Saul and the bones of Jonathan his son, and the bones of them that had been hanged, in the land of Benjamin in the hill, in the sepulchre of Cis his father; and they did all things that the king commanded: and after this God listened to [the prayers of] the land.
15 A kaua hou mai la ko Pilisetia me ka Iseraela; iho aku la o Davida me kana poe kauwa, a kaua aku la i ko Pilisetia: a paupauaho iho la o Davida.
And there was yet war between the Philistines and Israel: and David went down and his servants with him, and they fought with the Philistines, and David went.
16 A o Isebi-benoba no na keiki a ke kanaka nunui, o kona ihe, ekolu haneri sekela keleawe ia ma ke kaupaona ana, ua kaei oia i ka pahikaua hou, a manao iho la oia e pepehi ia Davida.
And Jesbi, who was of the progeny of Rapha, and the head of whose spear [was] three hundred shekels of brass in weight, who also was girded with a club, even he thought to strike David.
17 Kokua mai la o Abisai ke keiki a Zeruia ia ia, hahau aku la ia i ke kanaka no Pilisetia, a pepehi iho la ia ia. Alaila papa mai la na kanaka ia Davida, i mai la, Mai hele hou aku oe me makou i ke kaua, i kinai ole iho ai oe i ke kukui no ka Iseraela.
And Abessa the son of Saruia helped him and struck the Philistine, and killed him. Then the men of David swore, saying, You shall not any longer go out with us to battle, and you shall not quench the lamp of Israel.
18 A mahope iho o keia manawa, he kaua hou me ko Pilisetia ma Goba; a pepehi iho la o Sibekai no Husata ia Sapa no na keiki a ke kanaka nunui.
And after this there was a battle again with the Philistines in Geth: then Sebocha the Astatothite killed Seph of the progeny of Rapha.
19 He kaua hou no hoi ma Goba me ko Pilisetia, ilaila i pepehi iho ai o Elehanana ke keiki a Iaareoregima no Betelehema i ke kaikaina o Golia no Gata, o ke au o kona ihe, ua like ia me ka laau o ka mea ulana lole.
And there was a battle in Rom with the Philistines; and Eleanan son of Ariorgim the Bethleemite killed Goliath the Gittite; and the staff of his spear [was] as a weaver's beam.
20 A he kaua hou ma Gata, ilaila he kanaka nunui me na manamanalima eono ma kela lima ma keia lima, a me na manamanawawae eono no ma kela wawae ma keia wawae, he iwakaluakumamaha i ka helu ana: ua hanau hoi ia na ke kanaka nunui.
And there was yet a battle in Geth: and there was a man of stature, and the fingers of his hands and the toes of his feet [were] six on each, four and twenty in number: and he also was born to Rapha.
21 I kona hoino ana mai i ka Iseraela, pepehi iho la o Ionatana ke keiki a Simea a ke kaikuaana a Davida ia ia.
And he defied Israel, and Jonathan son of Semei brother of David, struck him.
22 Ua hanau keia poe eha na ke kanaka nunui ma Gata, a ua haule lakou ma ka lima o Davida, a me ka lima hoi o kana poe kauwa.
These four were born descendants of the giants in Geth, the family of Rapha; and they fell by the hand of David, and by the hand of his servants.
