< I Samuela 10 >

1 LAWE aku la o Samuela i ka hue aila, a ninini iho la maluna o kona poo, a honi aku la ia ia, i aku la, Aole anei keia no ka poni ana mai o Iehova ia oe i alii maluna o kona hooilina?
Then Samuel took the vial of oil, and poured it upon his head, and kissed him, and said, Is it not because Jehovah has anointed thee prince over his inheritance?
2 A hala oe mai o'u aku nei i keia la, alaila e loaa no ia oe na kanaka elua ma ka halelua o Rahela, ma ka mokuna o ka Beniamina, ma Zeleza; a e i mai laua ia oe, Ua loaa na hoki au i hele ai e imi: aia hoi, ua pau ka manao ana o kou makuakane i na hoki, a ua kaumaha oia ia olua, i ka i ana ae, Heaha ka'u e hana'i no kuu keiki?
When thou goest from me to-day, thou shalt meet two men by Rachel's sepulchre in the border of Benjamin at Zelzah; and they will say to thee, The asses are found which thou wentest to seek, and behold, thy father has dismissed the matter of the asses, and is anxious about you, saying, What shall I do for my son?
3 A malaila aku oe e hele ai, a hiki ma ka laau oka o Tabora, a e halawai mai me oe ilaila na kanaka ekolu e pii ana i ke Akua ma Betela: o kekahi e hali ana i na kao keiki ekolu, a o kekahi e hali ana i na pai palaoa ekolu, a o kekahi e hali ana i ka hue waina.
And thou shalt go on forward from thence, and shalt come to the oak of Tabor, and there shall meet thee three men going up to God, to Bethel, one carrying three kids, and another carrying three cakes of bread, and another carrying a flask of wine.
4 A e aloha mai lakou ia oe, a e haawi mai ia oe i elua pai berena; nau no ia e lawe mai ko lakou lima mai.
And they will ask after thy welfare, and give thee two loaves, which thou shalt receive of their hands.
5 Mahope iho e hiki aku oe i ka puu o ke Akua, malaila ka noho ana o ka poe koa o ko Pilisetia: a hiki aku oe ilaila i ke kulanakauhale, e halawai oe me ka poe kaula e iho ana ma kahi kiekie mai, me ka mea kani, a me ke kuolokani, a me ka mea hokio, a me ka mea ukeke imua o lakou; a e wanana lakou.
After that thou shalt come to the hill of God, where are the outposts of the Philistines; and it shall come to pass, when thou comest thither, into the city, that thou shalt meet a company of prophets coming down from the high place with lute and tambour and pipe and harp before them; and they themselves prophesying.
6 A e hiki mai ka Uhane o Iehova maluna ou, a e wanana pu oe me lakou, a e lilo oe i kanaka okoa.
And the Spirit of Jehovah will come upon thee, and thou shalt prophesy with them, and shalt be turned into another man.
7 Aia hiki mai keia mau hoailona ia oe, e hana oe i ka mea i loaa i kou lima; no ka mea, me oe no ke Akua.
And it shall be, when these signs shall come to thee, thou shalt do as thy hand shall find; for God is with thee.
8 A e iho e oe mamua o'u i Gilegala; aia hoi e iho ana au i ou la, e kaumaha aku i na mohaikuni, a e kaumaha aku hoi i na mohai hoomalu; i na la ehiku oe e kali ai, a hiki aku au i ou la, a e hoike aku ia oe i ka mea au e hana aku ai.
And thou shalt go down before me to Gilgal; and behold, I will come down to thee, to offer up burnt-offerings, [and] to sacrifice sacrifices of peace-offerings: seven days shalt thou wait, until I come to thee and inform thee what thou shalt do.
9 A i ka wa i huli ae ia e hele aku mai o Samuela aku, haawi mai ke Akua i naau okoa nona: a hiki io mai ua mau hoailona la a pau ia la.
And it was [so] that when he turned his back to go away from Samuel, God gave him another heart; and all those signs came to pass that day.
10 A hiki aku laua malaila ma ka puu, aia hoi, he poe kaula i halawai mai me ia; a hiki mai ka Uhane o ke Akua maluna ona, a wanana pu aku la ia me lakou.
And when they came thither to the hill, behold, a company of prophets met him; and the Spirit of God came upon him, and he prophesied among them.
11 A o na mea a pau i ike ia ia i ka manawa mamua, ike lakou, aia hoi, e wanana ana oia me ka poe kaula, i ae la kekahi kanaka i kona hoalauna, Heaha keia i hiki mai ai i ke keiki a Kisa? O Saula anei kekahi me ka poe kaula?
And it came to pass, when all that knew him before saw that, behold, he prophesied among the prophets, then the people said one to another, What is this that has happened to the son of Kish? Is Saul also among the prophets?
12 Olelo mai kekahi nolaila mai, i mai la, Owai ko lakou makuakane? No ia mea ua maa ia olelo, O Saula anei kekahi me ka poe kaula?
And a man of that place answered and said, But who is their father? Therefore it became a proverb, Is Saul also among the prophets?
13 A pau kana wanana ana, hele mai ia i kahi kiekie.
And when he had ended prophesying, he came to the high place.
14 Ninau mai la kekahi makuakane o Saula ia ia, a i kana kauwa, Ihea la olua i hele ai? I aku la kela, I kahi e imi ai i na hoki: a ike maua, aole, hele maua io Samuela la.
And Saul's uncle said to him and to his servant, Whither went ye? And he said, To seek the asses; and when we saw that they were nowhere, we went to Samuel.
15 I mai la kahi makuakane o Saula, Ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e hai mai ia'u, heaha ka mea a Samuela i olelo mai ai ia olua?
And Saul's uncle said, Tell me, I pray thee, what Samuel said to you.
16 I aku la o Saula i kekahi makuakane ona, Ua hai maopopo mai ia ia maua i ka loaa ana o na hoki. Aka, o ka mea no ke aupuni a Samuela i olelo ai, aole ia i hai aku ia ia.
And Saul said to his uncle, He told us for certain that the asses were found. But of the matter of the kingdom, of which Samuel had spoken, he told him not.
17 Houluulu ae la o Samuela i na kanaka io Iehova la ma Mizepa.
And Samuel called the people together to Jehovah to Mizpah.
18 I aku la i na mamo a Iseraela, Peneia ka olelo a Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela, Ua lawe mai nei au i ka Iseraela mai Aigupita mai, a ua hoopakele ia oukou i ka lima o ko Aigupita, a i ka lima o ko na aupuni a pau, a me ka poe i hooluhi ia oukou:
And he said to the children of Israel, Thus saith Jehovah, the God of Israel, I brought up Israel out of Egypt, and delivered you out of the hand of the Egyptians, and out of the hand of all the kingdoms that oppressed you;
19 A ua hoowahawaha oukou i ko oukou Akua i keia la, oia ka i hoola ia oukou i na mea ino a pau a me na popilikia o oukou; ua i aku oukou ia ia, E hoonoho i alii maluna o makou. No ia mea, e hoike oukou ia oukou iho imua o Iehova ma ko oukou mau hanauna, a ma ko oukou mau tausani.
but ye have this day rejected your God, who himself saved you out of all your adversities and your troubles, and have said unto him, [Nay, ] but a king shalt thou set over us. Now therefore present yourselves before Jehovah by your tribes, and by your thousands.
20 A hookokoke mai o Samuela i na hanauna kanaka a pau o ka Iseraela, ua laweia ka hanauna o ka Beniamina.
And Samuel caused all the tribes of Israel to come near, and the tribe of Benjamin was taken.
21 A hookokoke mai ia i ka hanauna o ka Beniamina ma ko lakou mau ohana, ua laweia ka ohana o Materi, a ua laweia o Saula ke keiki a Kisa; a imi lakou ia ia, aole i loaa.
And he caused the tribe of Benjamin to come near by their families, and the family of Matri was taken; and Saul the son of Kish was taken. And they sought him, but he was not to be found.
22 No ia mea, ninau hou lakou ia Iehova, E hiki mai auanei ua kanaka la maanei? I mai la o Iehova, Aia, ua pee oia maloko o na ukana.
Therefore they inquired of Jehovah further, Will the man yet come hither? And Jehovah answered, Behold, he hath hid himself among the baggage.
23 Holo lakou a lawe mai ia ia mai laila mai: a i ke ku ana oia iwaena o na kanaka, na oi kona kiekie mamua o ko na kanaka a pau, mai kona poohiwi aku, a hala loa iluna.
And they ran and fetched him thence; and when he stood among the people, he was higher than any of the people from his shoulders and upward.
24 Olelo aku la o Samuela i na kanaka a pau, E nana oukou ia ia nei, i ka mea a Iehova i wae ai, aohe kona like iwaena o na kanaka a pau, Hooho aku la na kanaka a pau, i aku la, E ola ke alii.
And Samuel said to all the people, See ye him whom Jehovah has chosen, that there is none like him among all the people? And all the people shouted and said, May the king live.
25 Alaila hai aku la o Samuela i ke ano o ke aupuni, a kakau iloko o ka buke, a waiho ia imua o Iehova. A hoihoi aku la o Samuela i na kanaka a pau, i kela mea i keia mea i kona hale iho.
And Samuel told the people the right of the kingdom, and wrote it in the book, and laid it before Jehovah. And Samuel sent all the people away, every man to his house.
26 A hoi aku la o Saula i kona wahi ma Gibea; a hele pu me ia kekahi poe kanaka, na ke Akua i hoopa mai ko lakou naau.
And Saul also went home to Gibeah; and with him went the band, whose hearts God had touched.
27 Aka, olelo mai la ka poe hewa, Pehea la e hoola mai ai keia kanaka ia kakou? a hoowahawaha lakou ia ia, aole i lawe mai lakou i na haawina ia ia; aka, noho malie no ia.
But the children of Belial said, How should this man save us? And they despised him, and brought him no gifts. But he was as one deaf.
