I Samuela 25
1 A MAKE iho la o Samuela; a hoakoakoaia'e la ka Iseraela a pau, a uwe iho la ia ia, a kanu aku la ia ia iloko o kona hale ma Rama. Ku ae la o Davida, a iho ilalo ma ka waonahele o Parana.
Now Samuel died. All Israel gathered together and mourned for him, and they buried him in his house at Ramah. Then David rose and went down to the wilderness of Paran.
2 A o kekahi kauaka ma Maona, a ma Karemela kona waiwai; a he kanaka waiwai loa ia, akolu ana tausani hipa, hookahi tausani kao; a ako iho la ia i kana poe hipa ma Karemela.
There was a man in Maon, whose possessions were in Carmel. The man was very wealthy. He had three thousand sheep and one thousand goats. He was shearing his sheep in Carmel.
3 O Nabala ka inoa o ua kanaka la, a o Abigaila ka inoa o kana wahine: a he wahine akamai i ka noonoo, a he maikai kona helehelena: aka, o ke kanaka, he huhu ia, a he hewa kana hana ana: no ko Kaleba ohana ia.
The man's name was Nabal, and the name of his wife was Abigail. The woman was intelligent and beautiful in appearance. But the man was harsh and evil in his dealings. He was a descendant of the house of Caleb.
4 A lohe ae la o Davida ma ka waonahele e ako aua o Nabala i kana poe hipa.
David heard in the wilderness that Nabal was shearing his sheep.
5 Hoouna aku la o Davida i na kanaka ui he umi, a, i aku la o Davida i na kanaka ui, E pii ae oukou ma Karemela, a hele io Nabala la, a e aloha aku ia ia ma kuu inoa.
So David sent ten young men. David said to the young men, “Go up to Carmel, go to Nabal, and greet him in my name.
6 Penei oukou e olelo aku ai ia ia e ola ana, Aloha oe, aloha ko ka hale, a aloha hoi kou mea a pau loa.
You will say to him, 'Live in prosperity. Peace to you and peace to your house, and peace be to all that you have.
7 A ua lohe iho nei au, aia no ia oe na mea ako huluhipa: o kou poe kahuhipa me makou, aole makou i hana ino aku ia lakou, aole i lilo kekahi o ko lakou mea i ka manawa a pau a lakou i noho ai ma Karemela.
I hear that you have shearers. Your shepherds have been with us, and we did them no harm, and they missed nothing the whole time they were in Carmel.
8 E ninau aku oe i kou poe kanaka ui, a e hai mai lakou ia oe. No ia mea, e loaa auanei i na kanaka ui ke aloha imua o kou maka: no ka mea, ua hiki mai makou i ka la maikai: ke noi aku nei au ia oe, o ka mea i loaa i kou lima e haawi na kau poe kauwa, a na kau keiki, na Davida.
Ask your young men, and they will tell you. Now let my young men find favor in your eyes, for we have come on a festive day. Please give whatever you have on hand to your servants and to your son David.'”
9 A hiki aku la ka poe kanaka ui o Davida, hai aku la lakou ia Nabala ia mau olelo a pau ma ka inoa o Davida, a hooki iho la.
When David's young men arrived, they said all of this to Nabal on David's behalf and then waited.
10 Olelo mai la o Nabala i na kauwa a Davida, i mai la, Owai la o Davida, owai hoi ke keiki a Iese? I neia manawa, ua nui na kauwa, o kela kanaka keia kanaka i mahuka mai ke alo aku o kona haku.
Nabal answered David's servants, “Who is David, and who is the son of Jesse? There are many servants these days who are breaking away from their masters.
11 E lawe anei au i kuu berena, a me ko'u wai, a me ka'u holoholona a'u i kalua'i na ka poe ako huluhipa, a e haawi aku na na kanaka a'u i ike ole ai i ko lakou wahi e hele mai nei?
Should I take my bread and my water and my meat that I have killed for my shearers, and give it to men who come from I do not know where?”
12 A huli ae la na kanaka ui o Davida ma ko lakou ala, a hoi aku la a hiki, a hai aku la lakou ia ia ia mau olelo a pau.
So David's young men turned away and came back, and told him everything that was said.
13 I aku la o Davida i kona poe kanaka, E hawele oukou o kela kanaka keia kanaka i kana pahikaua. A hawele iho la kela kanaka keia kanaka i kana pahikaua; a hawele iho hoi o Davida i kana pahikaua; aha haneri kanaka paha i hahai mahope o Davida; alua haneri i noho ma na ukana.
David said to his men, “Every man strap on his sword.” So every man strapped on his sword. David also strapped on his sword. About four hundred men followed after David, and two hundred stayed by the baggage.
14 A hai aku kekahi o ka poe kanaka ui ia Abigaila, ka wahine a Nabala, i aku la, Aia hoi, ua hoouna mai o Davida i na elele mai ka waonahele mai e aloha mai i ko makou haku, a lele ino aku oia ia lakou.
But one of the young men told Abigail, Nabal's wife; he said, “David sent messengers out of the wilderness to greet our master, and he insulted them.
15 Aka, ua hana pono mai ia poe kanaka ia makou, aole i hana eha mai ia makou, aole i lilo kekahi mea o makou i na la a pau a makou i noho pu ai me lakou ma ke kula.
Yet the men were very good to us. We were not harmed and did not miss anything as long as we went with them when we were in the fields.
16 He pa pohaku lakou no makou ma ka po a me ke ao, i na la a pau a makou i noho pu ai me lakou, e malama ana i ka poe hipa.
They were a wall to us both day and night, all the while we were with them tending the sheep.
17 Ano hoi e noonoo oe a ike i kau mea e hana aku ai; no ka mea, ua manao hewa ia mai no to makou haku, a no kona ohua a pau; no ka mea, he keiki ia na Beliala, aole e pono ke olelo aku ia ia.
Therefore know this and consider what you will do, for evil is plotted against our master, and against his whole house. He is such a worthless fellow that one cannot reason with him.”
18 Alaila lalelale ae la o Abigaila, a lawe aku la i elua haneri pai berena, a i elua hue waina, a me na hipa elima i hoomakaukauia, a me na ipu hua palaoa elima i pulehuia, a i hookahi haneri paihuawaina maloo, a i elua haneri pai huafiku maloo, a kau ae la maluna o na hoki.
Then Abigail hurried and took two hundred loaves, two bottles of wine, five sheep already prepared, five measures of parched grain, one hundred clusters of raisins, and two hundred cakes of figs, and laid them on donkeys.
19 I aku la ia i kana poe kauwa, E hele e oukou mamua o'u, aia hoi, e hahai ana au mahope o oukou. Aole ia i hai aku ia Nabala kana kane.
She said to her young men, “Go on before me, and I will come after you.” But she did not tell her husband Nabal.
20 A i kona holo ana maluna o ka hoki a hiki ma kahi malu o ka mauna, aia hoi o Davida a me kona poe kanaka e iho mai ana e halawai me ia, a halawai aku la ia me lakou.
As she rode on her donkey and came down by the cover of the mountain, David and his men came down toward her, and she met them.
21 Ua olelo iho la o Davida, He oiaio, ua malama make hewa au i na mea a pau a keia kanaka ma ka waonahele, aole i lilo kekahi o kana mau mea a pau; a ua hoihoi mai ia i ka hewa ia'u no ka pono.
Now David had said, “Surely in vain have I guarded all that this man has in the wilderness, so that nothing was missed of all that belonged to him, and he has returned me evil for good.
22 Pela hoi, a e oi aku hoi ka ke Akua e hana aku ai i ka poe enemi o Davida, ke waiho au a hiki i ka malamalama o ke ao i kekahi o kona poe kane.
May God do so to me, David, and more also, if by the morning I leave so much as one male of all who belong to him.”
23 A ike aku la o Abigaila ia Davida, lele koke iho la ia mai luna mai o ka hold, a haule ilalo ke alo imua o Davida, a kulou iho la ma ka honua.
When Abigail saw David, she hurried and got down from her donkey and lay before David facedown and bowed herself to the ground.
24 A haule iho la ma kona wawae, i aku la, Maluna o'u, e kuu haku, maluna o'u ka hewa: a ke noi aku nei au, e ae mai oe i kau kauwawahine, e olelo aku maloko o kou pepeiao, a e hoolohe mai i ka olelo a kau kauwawahine.
She lay at his feet and said, “On me alone, my master, be the guilt. Please let your servant speak to you, and listen to the words of your servant.
25 Ke noi aku nei au ia oe, mai manao nui kuu haku i keia kanaka hewa, ia Nabala: no ka mea, e like me ke ano o kona inoa, pela hoi ia, o Nabala kona inoa, a me ia no ka lapuwale: aka, aole i ike kau kauwawahine i ka poe kanaka ui au i hoouna mai ai.
Let not my master regard this worthless fellow, Nabal, for as his name is, so is he. Nabal is his name, and folly is with him. But I your servant did not see the young men of my master, whom you sent.
26 Ano hoi, e kuu haku, ma ke ola o Iehova, a ma ke ola o kou uhane, no ke keakea ana o Iehova i kou hele mai e hookahe i ke koko, a me ka hoopai ana nou me kou lima iho, ano hoi, e lilo ana kou poe enemi, a me ka poe imi hewa i kuu haku, e like me Nabala.
Now then, my master, as Yahweh lives, and as you live, since Yahweh has restrained you from bloodshed, and from avenging yourself with your own hand, now let your enemies, and those who seek to do evil to my master, be like Nabal.
27 Ano hoi, o keia manawalea a kau kauwawahine i lawe mai nei na kuu haku, e haawiia'ku ia na ka poe kanaka ui e hele ana ma ka wawae o kuu haku.
Now let this present that your servant has brought to my master be given to the young men who follow my master.
28 Ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e kala ae oe i ka hala o kau kauwawahine: no ka mea, e hana io mai no o Iehova i hale mau no kuu haku; no ke kaua ana a kuu haku i na kaua o Iehova, aole i loaa ka hewa iloko ou i kou mau la.
Please forgive the trespass of your servant, for Yahweh will certainly make my master a sure house, because my master is fighting the battles of Yahweh; and evil will not be found in you so long as you live.
29 Aka, ua ku mai kekahi kanaka e hahai ia oe, a e imi i kou ola: aka, e nakii pu ia auanei ke ola o kuu haku iloko o ka pua o ka poe ola me Iehova kou Akua; a o ke ola o kou poe enemi, nana no lakou e maa aku mai loko ae o ka maa.
Though men rise up to pursue you to take your life, yet the life of my master will be bound in the bundle of the living by Yahweh your God; and he will sling away the lives of your enemies, as from the pocket of a sling.
30 A i ka manawa e hana mai ai o Iehova no kuu haku, e like me ka pono a pau ana i olelo mai ai nou, a e hoolilo ia oe i alii no ka Iseraela;
Yahweh will have done for my master everything he promised you, and has appointed you leader over Israel.
31 Alaila aole e lilo keia i mea kaumaha nou, a me ka hihia no ka naau o kuu haku, o kou hookahe ole ana i ke koko hala ole, a o ka hoopai ole ana o kuu haku nona: a i hana pono mai o Iehova i kuu haku, alaila e hoomanao oe i kau kauwawahine.
This will not be a staggering burden for you—that you have poured out innocent blood, or because my master attempted to rescue himself. For when Yahweh will do good for my master, remember your servant.”
32 Olelo mai la o Davida ia Abigaila, E hoomaikaiia ke Akua o ka Iseraela, i kona hoouna ana mai ia oe i keia la e halawai me au:
David said to Abigail, “May Yahweh, the God of Israel, be blessed, he who sent you to meet me today.
33 E hoomaikaiia kou naauao, a e hoomaikaiia oe i kou keakea ana mai ia'u i ka hele ana mai e hookahe i ke koko, a me ka hoopai ana no'u me kuu lima iho.
Your wisdom is blessed and you are blessed, because you have kept me today from bloodshed and from avenging myself with my own hand!
34 He oiaio, ma ke ola o Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela, nana i keakea mai ia'u e hana hewa aku ia oe, ina paha aole oe i hele koke mai e halawai me au, ina aole koe ia Nabala a hiki i ka malamalama o ke ao kekahi o kona poe kane.
For in truth, as Yahweh, the God of Israel, lives, he who has kept me from hurting you, unless you had hurried to come meet me, there would certainly have not been left to Nabal so much as one male baby by morning.”
35 A lawe aku la o Davida mai kona lima aku i ka mea ana i lawe mai ai nana, a i aku la ia ia ia, E pii pomaikai oe ma kou hale; aia hoi, ua hoolohe aku au i kou leo, a ua maliu aku au ia oe.
So David received from her hand what she had brought him; he said to her, “Go up in peace to your house; see, I have listened to your voice and have accepted you.”
36 A hoi aku la o Abigaila ia Nabala; aia hoi, he ahaaina kana ma kona hale e like me ka ahaaina alii; a ua olioli ka naau o Nabala iloko ona, no ka mea, ua ona loa: no ia mea, aole ia i hai iki aku ia ia, a hiki i ka malamalama o ke ao.
Abigail went back to Nabal; behold, he was holding a feast in his house, like the feast of a king; and Nabal's heart was merry within him, for he was very drunk. So she told him nothing at all until the morning light.
37 A ao ae la, i ka wa i hala aku ka waina mawaho o Nabala, a hai aku la kana wahine ia ia i keia mau mea, make iho la kona naau iloko ona, a like ia me ka pohaku.
It came about in the morning, when the wine had gone out of Nabal, that his wife told him these things; his heart died within him, and he became like a stone.
38 A he anahulu paha la ma ia hope mai, pepehi mai o Iehova ia Nabala, a make iho la ia.
It came about ten days later that Yahweh attacked Nabal so that he died.
39 A lohe ae la o Davida, ua make o Nabala, i iho la ia, E hoomaikaiia o Iehova, nana i hoopai aku maluna o Nabala i kuu hoinoia mai, a nana i keakea mai i kana kauwa i ole e hana ino; a ua hoihoi aku o Iehova i ka hewa o Nabala maluna o kona poo. A hoouna aku la o Davida, a kamailio me Abigaila e lawe ia ia i wahine nana.
When David heard that Nabal was dead, he said, “May Yahweh be blessed, who has taken up the cause of my insult from the hand of Nabal and has kept back his servant from evil. He has turned Nabal's evil action back on his own head.” Then David sent and spoke to Abigail, to take her to himself as wife.
40 A hiki aku la na kauwa a Davida io Abigaila la ma Karemela, olelo aku la lakou ia ia, i aku la, Ua hoouna mai o Davida ia makou iou la e lawe ia oe i wahine nana.
When David's servants had come to Abigail at Carmel, they spoke to her and said, “David has sent us to you to take you to him as his wife.”
41 Ku ae la ia, a kulou iho la me kona maka ma ka honua, i aku la, Aia hoi, e hooliloia kau kauwawahine i kauwa e holoi ai i na wawae o na kauwa a kuu haku.
She arose, bowed herself with her face to the ground, and said, “See, your female servant is a servant to wash the feet of the servants of my master.”
42 A ku koke ae la o Abigaila, a hooholo maluna o ka hoki me kona mau wahine elima i hele mahope ona; a hahai aku la ia mahope o na elele a Davida, a lilo ia i wahine nana.
Abigail hurried and arose, and rode on a donkey with five servant girls of hers who followed her; and she followed David's messengers and became his wife.
43 Lawe hoi o Davida ia Ahinoama no Iezereela, a lilo laua elua i mau wahine nana.
Now David had also taken Ahinoam of Jezreel as a wife; both of them became his wives.
44 Ua haawi aku o Saula ia Mikala kana kaikamahine, ka wahine a Davida, i wahine na Paleti ke keiki a Laisa no Galima.
Also, Saul had given Michal his daughter, David's wife, to Paltiel son of Laish, who was of Gallim.
