1 Chronicles 11
1 Then all Israel gathered themselves to David to Hebron, saying, “Behold, we are your bone and your flesh.
Na ka huihui a Iharaira katoa ki a Rawiri ki Heperona, a ka mea, Tenei matou, he wheua nou, he kikokiko nou.
2 In times past, even when Saul was king, it was you who led out and brought in Israel. The LORD your God said to you, ‘You shall be shepherd of my people Israel, and you shall be prince over my people Israel.’”
I mua ake nei, i te mea ano ko Haora te kingi, ko koe te kaikawe atu, te kaikawe mai, i a Iharaira: kua korerotia ano koe e Ihowa, e tou Atua, Ko koe hei hepara mo taku iwi, mo Iharaira, ko koe ano hei tino tangata mo taku iwi, mo Iharaira.
3 So all the elders of Israel came to the king to Hebron; and David made a covenant with them in Hebron before the LORD. They anointed David king over Israel, according to the LORD’s word by Samuel.
Na ka haere nga kaumatua katoa o Iharaira ki te kingi, ki Heperona, ka whakarite kawenata a Rawiri ki a ratou ki Heperona ki te aroaro o Ihowa: a whakawahia ana e ratou a Rawiri hei kingi mo Iharaira, ko ta Ihowa hoki i ki ai, ara ko ta Hamuera.
4 David and all Israel went to Jerusalem (also called Jebus); and the Jebusites, the inhabitants of the land, were there.
Na ka haere a Rawiri ratou ko Iharaira katoa ki Hiruharama, ara ki Iepuhu; i reira ano nga Iepuhi, nga tangata whenua.
5 The inhabitants of Jebus said to David, “You will not come in here!” Nevertheless David took the stronghold of Zion. The same is David’s city.
Na ka mea nga tangata o Iepuhu ki a Rawiri, E kore koe e tae mai ki konei. Heoi kua riro i a Rawiri te pourewa i Hiona; ko te pa ia o Rawiri.
6 David had said, “Whoever strikes the Jebusites first shall be chief and captain.” Joab the son of Zeruiah went up first, and was made chief.
Na ka mea a Rawiri, Ko te tangata mana te patu tuatahi ki nga Iepuhi, hei tino tangata ia, hei rangatira. Na ko Ioapa tama a Teruia kua tae wawe, a meinga ana ko ia te tino tangata.
7 David lived in the stronghold; therefore they called it David’s city.
Na ka noho a Rawiri ki te pourewa; koia i huaina ai e ratou a reira ko te pa o Rawiri.
8 He built the city all around, from Millo even around; and Joab repaired the rest of the city.
A i hanga e ia te pa a tawhio noa, o Miro mai a taka noa; a na Ioapa i whakaora tera atu wahi o te pa.
9 David grew greater and greater, for the LORD of Armies was with him.
Na ka tino nui haere a Rawiri, i a ia hoki a Ihowa, te Atua o nga mano.
10 Now these are the chief of the mighty men whom David had, who showed themselves strong with him in his kingdom, together with all Israel, to make him king, according to the LORD’s word concerning Israel.
Na ko nga tino tangata enei a Rawiri, i kaha rawa nei me ia mo tona rangatiratanga, ratou ko Iharaira katoa, hei whakakingi i a ia; hei pera me ta Ihowa i ki ai mo Iharaira.
11 This is the number of the mighty men whom David had: Jashobeam, the son of a Hachmonite, the chief of the thirty; he lifted up his spear against three hundred and killed them at one time.
A ko te tokomaha tenei o nga marohirohi a Rawiri: ko Iahopeama, tama a tetahi Hakamoni, te rangatira o te toru tekau; i ara ake tana tao ki nga rau e toru a patua iho e ia i te whakaekenga kotahi.
12 After him was Eleazar the son of Dodo, the Ahohite, who was one of the three mighty men.
I muri i a ia ko Ereatara tama a Roro Ahohi; ko ia tetahi o nga marohirohi tokotoru.
13 He was with David at Pasdammim, and there the Philistines were gathered together to battle, where there was a plot of ground full of barley; and the people fled from before the Philistines.
I a Rawiri ia i Paharamime, a i huihui nga Pirihitini ki reira ki te whawhai, a i reira tetahi wahi whenua e kapi ana i te parei; na kua rere te iwi i te aroaro o nga Pirihitini.
14 They stood in the middle of the plot, defended it, and killed the Philistines; and the LORD saved them by a great victory.
Na tu ana raua i waenganui o taua wahi, a ka mau i a raua, patua iho e raua nga Pirihitini: na nui atu te whakaoranga i whakaora ai a Ihowa.
15 Three of the thirty chief men went down to the rock to David, into the cave of Adullam; and the army of the Philistines were encamped in the valley of Rephaim.
Na ka haere nga rangatira tokotoru, no te toru tekau, ki raro, ki te kamaka ki a Rawiri, ki te ana o Aturama: a ko te ope o nga Pirihitini i te raroraro i Repaima e noho a puni ana.
16 David was then in the stronghold, and the garrison of the Philistines was in Bethlehem at that time.
Na i roto a Rawiri i te pourewa i taua wa, a ko nga hoia pupuri a nga Pirihitini i Peterehema i taua wa.
17 David longed, and said, “Oh, that someone would give me water to drink from the well of Bethlehem, which is by the gate!”
Na ka minamina a Rawiri, a ka mea, Aue, me he tangata hei mea wai mai moku i te puna i Peterehema, i tera i te kuwaha!
18 The three broke through the army of the Philistines, and drew water out of the well of Bethlehem that was by the gate, took it, and brought it to David; but David would not drink any of it, but poured it out to the LORD,
Na tika ana taua tokotoru na waenganui o te puni o nga Pirihitini, a utuhia mai ana he wai i te puna o Peterehema, i tera i te kuwaha; tangohia ana e ratou, mauria ana ki a Rawiri: otiia kihai a Rawiri i pai ki te inu, engari ringihia ana e ia h ei mea ki a Ihowa.
19 and said, “My God forbid me, that I should do this! Shall I drink the blood of these men who have put their lives in jeopardy?” For they risked their lives to bring it. Therefore he would not drink it. The three mighty men did these things.
I mea ia, Aue, ma toku Atua ahau e arai kei mea i tenei! kia inumia koia e ahau nga toto o enei tangata, me i kotahi nei kua mate? me i kotahi hoki ratou kua mate i te tikinga atu. Na reira i kore ai ia i pai ki te inu. Ko enei nga mahi a aua to a tokotoru.
20 Abishai, the brother of Joab, was chief of the three; for he lifted up his spear against three hundred and killed them, and had a name amongst the three.
Na ko Apihai teina o Ioapa te rangatira o taua tokotoru; i ara ake tana tao ki nga rau e toru, patua iho e ia; i whai ingoa ia i roto i te tokotoru.
21 Of the three, he was more honourable than the two, and was made their captain; however he wasn’t included in the three.
O te tokotoru, nui atu tona kororia i to te tokorua, a meinga ana ko ia hei rangatira mo ratou: otiia kihai ia i uru ki te tokotoru tuatahi.
22 Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, the son of a valiant man of Kabzeel, who had done mighty deeds, killed the two sons of Ariel of Moab. He also went down and killed a lion in the middle of a pit on a snowy day.
Me Penaia tama a Iehoiara, he tama na tetahi tangata toa o Kapateere, he nui ana mahi, nana i patu nga tama tokorua a Ariere o Moapa; i haere ano ia ki raro, a patua ana e ia tetahi raiona i roto i te rua i te wa o te hukarere.
23 He killed an Egyptian, a man of great stature, five cubits high. In the Egyptian’s hand was a spear like a weaver’s beam; and he went down to him with a staff, plucked the spear out of the Egyptian’s hand, and killed him with his own spear.
Nana hoki tetahi Ihipiana i patu, he tangata nui, e rima nga whatianga te roa: he tao ano i te ringa o taua Ihipiana koia ano kei te rakau a te kaiwhatu; na haere ana ia ki raro, ki a ia, he tokotoko hoki tana, a kapohia ana e ia te tao i roto i te ringa o te Ihipiana, patua iho ia ki tana tao ano.
24 Benaiah the son of Jehoiada did these things and had a name amongst the three mighty men.
Na Penaia tama a Iehoiara enei mahi; i whai ingoa ano ia i nga toa tokotoru.
25 Behold, he was more honourable than the thirty, but he didn’t attain to the three; and David set him over his guard.
Na, nona te kororia nui o te toru tekau; otiia kihai ia i uru ki te tokotoru tuatahi. Na meinga ana ia e Rawiri hei rangatira mo ana kaitiaki.
