< 1 Samuel 14 >

1 And it happened that, on a certain day, Jonathan, the son of Saul, said to the youth who bore his armor, “Come, and let us go over to the garrison of the Philistines, which is across from that place.” But he did not reveal this to his father.
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.
2 Moreover, Saul was staying in the furthermost part of Gibeah, below the pomegranate tree that was at Migron. And the people with him were about six hundred men.
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;
3 And Ahijah, the son of Ahitub, the brother of Ichabod, the son of Phinehas, who had been born of Eli, the priest of the Lord at Shiloh, wore the ephod. But the people did not know where Jonathan had gone.
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.
4 Now there were, between the ascents along which Jonathan strove to cross to the garrison of the Philistines, rocks projecting from both sides, and, in the manner of teeth, boulders breaking out from one side and the other. The name of one was Shining, and the name of the other was Thorny.
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.
5 One boulder projected toward the north, opposite Michmash, and the other toward the south, opposite Gibeah.
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.
6 Then Jonathan said to the youth who bore his armor: “Come, let us go across to the garrison of these uncircumcised. And perhaps the Lord may act on our behalf. For it is not difficult for the Lord to save, either by many, or by few.”
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.
7 And his armor bearer said to him: “Do all that is pleasing to your soul. Go wherever you wish, and I will be with you, wherever you will choose.”
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.
8 And Jonathan said: “Behold, we will cross over to these men. And when we will be seen by them,
Olelo aku la o Ionatana, Aia hoi, e hele kaua i ua poe kanaka la, a e hoike ia kaua iho ia lakou.
9 if they have spoken to us in this way, ‘Stay until we come to you,’ let us stand still in our place, and not ascend to them.
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.
10 But if they will say, ‘Ascend to us,’ let us ascend. For the Lord has delivered them into our hands. This will be the sign to us.”
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.
11 And so, both of them appeared before the garrison of the Philistines. And the Philistines said, “See, the Hebrews have come out from the holes in which they had been hiding.”
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.
12 And the men of the garrison spoke to Jonathan and to his armor bearer, and they said, “Ascend to us, and we will show you something.” And Jonathan said to his armor bearer: “Let us ascend. Follow me. For the Lord has delivered them into the hands of Israel.”
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.
13 Then Jonathan ascended, crawling on his hands and feet, and his armor bearer after him. And then, some fell before Jonathan, others his armor bearer killed as he was following him.
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.
14 And the first slaughter was made when Jonathan and his armor bearer struck down about twenty of the men, in the midst of an area of land that a yoke of oxen would usually plow in a day.
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.
15 And a miracle occurred in the camp, out in the fields. And all of the people of their garrison, who had gone out in order to plunder, were stupefied. And the earth trembled. And it happened as a miracle from God.
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.
16 And the watchmen of Saul, who were at Gibeah of Benjamin, looked out, and behold, a multitude was thrown down and dispersed, this way and that.
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.
17 And Saul said to the people who were with him, “Inquire and see who has gone out from us.” And when they had inquired, it was found that Jonathan and his armor bearer were not present.
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.
18 And Saul said to Ahijah, “Bring the ark of the God.” (For the ark of God was, in that day, with the sons of Israel in that place.)
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.
19 And while Saul spoke to the priest, there arose a great tumult in the camp of the Philistines. And it was increasing, little by little, and it was being heard more clearly. And Saul said to the priest, “Withdraw your hand.”
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.
20 Then Saul, and all the people who were with him, cried out together, and they went to the place of the conflict. And behold, each one’s sword had been turned against his neighbor, and there was a very great slaughter.
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.
21 Moreover, the Hebrews who had been with the Philistines yesterday and the day before, and who had ascended with them into the camp, turned back so that they might be with those of Israel who were with Saul and Jonathan.
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.
22 Likewise, all the Israelites who had hidden themselves on mount Ephraim, hearing that the Philistines had fled, joined themselves with their own in the battle. And there were with Saul about ten thousand men.
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.
23 And the Lord saved Israel on that day. But the fight continued as far as Bethaven.
A hoopakele mai o Iehova i ka Iseraela ia la: a hele aku la ke kaua ma Betavena.
24 And the men of Israel were joined together on that day. And Saul made the people swear, saying, “Cursed be the man who will eat bread, until evening, until I am avenged of my enemies.” And the entire people did not consume bread.
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.
25 And all the common people went into a forest, in which there was honey on the surface of the field.
A hele na kanaka a pau ma ka ululaau; a he meli maluna o ka aina.
26 And so the people entered the forest, and there appeared flowing honey, but no one drew his hand near his mouth. For the people were afraid of the oath.
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.
27 But Jonathan had not heard that his father had bound the people to an oath. And so he extended the top of the staff that he was holding in his hand, and he dipped it in a honeycomb. And he turned his hand to his mouth, and his eyes were brightened.
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.
28 And in response, one of the people said, “Your father has bound the people by an oath, saying: ‘Cursed be the man who will eat any bread this day.’” (For the people were faint.)
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.
29 And Jonathan said: “My father has troubled the land. You have seen for yourselves that my eyes were brightened, because I tasted a little of this honey.
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.
30 How much more so, if the people had eaten from the plunder that they find with their enemies? Would not a greater slaughter have been accomplished among the Philistines?”
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?
31 Therefore, on that day, they struck down the Philistines, from Michmash as far as Aijalon. But the people were exceedingly wearied.
A luku aku la lakou i ko Pilisetia ia la, mai Mikemasa a hiki i Aialona: a ua nawaliwali loa na kanaka.
32 And turning to the spoils, they took sheep, and oxen, and calves, and they slew them on the ground. And the people ate with blood.
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.
33 Then they reported to Saul, saying that the people had sinned against the Lord, eating with blood. And he said: “You have transgressed. Roll a great stone to me, here and now.”
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.
34 And Saul said: “Disperse yourselves among the common people, and tell each one of them to bring to me his ox and his ram, and to slay them upon this stone, and to eat, so that you will not sin against the Lord, in eating with blood.” And so, each one, out of all the people, brought his ox, by his own hand, throughout the night. And they slew them there.
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.
35 Then Saul built an altar to the Lord. And so, it was then that he first began to build an altar to the Lord.
Hana aku la o Saula i kuahu no Iehova, oia ke kuahu ana i hoomaka ai e hana no Iehova.
36 And Saul said: “Let us fall upon the Philistines by night, and lay waste to them even until the morning light. And let us not leave behind a man among them.” And the people said, “Do all that seems good in your eyes.” And the priest said, “Let us draw near to God in this place.”
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.
37 And Saul consulted the Lord: “Shall I pursue the Philistines? Will you deliver them into the hands of Israel?” And he did not respond to him on that day.
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.
38 And Saul said: “Bring here every single leader of the people. And we shall know and see by whom this sin was committed this day.
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.
39 As the Lord lives, who is the Savior of Israel, even if it were done by my son Jonathan, without retraction he shall die.” In this, no one among all the people contradicted him.
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.
40 And he said to all of Israel, “Separate yourselves on one side, and I, with my son Jonathan, will be on the other side.” And the people responded to Saul, “Do what seems good in your eyes.”
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.
41 And Saul said to the Lord, the God of Israel: “O Lord, God of Israel, grant a sign: Why is it that you will not respond to your servant this day? If this iniquity is in me, or in my son Jonathan, grant an indication. Or if this iniquity is in your people, grant a sanctification.” And Jonathan and Saul were discovered, but the people were released.
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.
42 And Saul said, “Cast lots between myself and Jonathan, my son.” And Jonathan was caught.
I aku la o Saula, E hailona iwaena o maua a me Ionatana kuu keiki. A ua laweia o Ionatana.
43 Then Saul said to Jonathan, “Tell me what you have done.” And Jonathan revealed to him, and said: “Truly, I tasted a little honey with the top of the staff that was in my hand. And behold, I shall die.”
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.
44 And Saul said, “May God do these things to me, and may he add these other things, for you shall surely die, Jonathan!”
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.
45 And the people said to Saul: “Why should Jonathan have to die, who has accomplished this great salvation in Israel? This is wrong. As the Lord lives, not one hair of his head should fall to the ground. For he has wrought with God this day.” Therefore, the people freed Jonathan, so that he would not die.
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.
46 And Saul withdrew, and he did not pursue the Philistines. And the Philistines went away to their own places.
Haalele aku la o Saula i ka hahai ana i ko Pilisetia: a hoi aku la ko Pilisetia i ko lakou wahi.
47 And Saul, his kingdom having been confirmed over Israel, was fighting against all his enemies on all sides: against Moab, and the sons of Ammon, and Edom, and the kings of Zobah, and the Philistines. And wherever he turned himself, he was successful.
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.
48 And gathering together an army, he struck Amalek. And he rescued Israel from the hand of those who would lay waste to them.
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.
49 Now the sons of Saul were Jonathan, and Ishvi, and Malchishua. And as for the names of his two daughters: the name of the firstborn daughter was Merab, and the name of the younger one was Michal.
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.
50 And the name of the wife of Saul was Ahinoam, the daughter of Ahimaaz. And the name of the first ruler of his military was Abner, the son of Ner, the first cousin of Saul.
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.
51 For Kish was the father of Saul, and Ner was the father of Abner, and the son of Abiel.
A o Kisa ka makuakane o Saula: a o Nera ka makuakane o Abenera, ke keiki a Abiela.
52 Now there was a powerful war against the Philistines during all the days of Saul. And so, whomever Saul had seen to be a strong man, and fit for battle, he joined him to himself.
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.
