Lunakanawai 20
1 A LAILA, hele aku la na mamo A a pau o ka Iseraela, a akoakoa ae la ia poe, me he kanaka hookahi la, mai Dana, a hiki i Beereseba, a me ko ka aina o Gileada, a io Iehova la i Mizepa.
Then all the people of Israel came out as one man, from Dan to Beersheba, including the land of Gilead also, and they assembled together before Yahweh at Mizpah.
2 Ku mai la na luna o na kanaka a pau, no na ohana a pau o ka Iseraela maloko o ka ahakanaka o ke Akua, eha haneri tausani kanaka i hele wawae, me ka unuhi i ka pahikaua.
The leaders of all the people, of all the tribes of Israel, took their places in the assembly of the people of God—400,000 men on foot, who were ready to fight with the sword.
3 (Lohe iho la na mamo a Beniamina, ua pii aku na mamo a Iseraela i Mizepa.) Alaila, olelo mai na mamo a Iseraela, E hai mai oukou: pehea la keia hewa?
Now the people of Benjamin heard that the people of Israel had gone up to Mizpah. The people of Israel said, “Tell us how this wicked thing happened.”
4 Olelo aku la ka Levi, ke kane a ka wahine i pepehiia, i aku la, I ko'u hele ana i Gibea no Beniamina, owau a me ka'u haiawahine, a moe ilaila;
The Levite, the husband of the woman who had been murdered, answered, “I came to Gibeah in the territory that belongs to Benjamin, I and my concubine, to spend the night.
5 Kuee mai la na kanaka o Gibea ia'u, a hoopuni iho la lakou i ka hale maluna o'u, i ka po, manao iho la e pepehi mai ia'u; a hoohaahaa iho la lakou i ka'u haiawahine, a ua make loa ia.
During the night, the leaders of Gibeah attacked me, surrounding the house, intending to kill me. They raped my concubine, and she died.
6 Lalau aku la au i ka'u haiawahine, oki liilii iho la, a hoouna aku la i na aina a pau i ili mai ai i ka Iseraela; no ka mea, ua hana lakou ma ka moe kolohe a me ka lapuwale iloko o ka Iseraela.
I took my concubine and cut her body into pieces, and sent them into each region of Israel's inheritance, because they have committed such wickedness and outrage in Israel.
7 Aia hoi, he poe mamo oukou a pau na Iseraela. E haawi mai i ko oukou manao a me ka oukou pono.
Now, all you Israelites, give your advice and counsel here.”
8 Ku mai la na kanaka a pau me he kanaka hookahi la, i mai la, Aole kekahi o kakou e hele i kona halelewa, aole hoi kekahi o kakou e hoi i kona hale.
All the people arose together as one man, and they said, “None of us will go to his tent, and none of us will return to his house!
9 Eia ka mea a kakou e hana aku ai ia Gibea, ma ka hailona e ku e ia ia.
But now this is what we must do to Gibeah: We will attack it as the lot directs us.
10 E lawe kakou i umi kanaka o ka haneri, no na ohana a pau o ka Iseraela, a he haneri no ka tausani, a he tausani no ka umi tausani, na lakou no e lawe mai i ka ai na na kanaka, i hana lakou i ko Gibea no Beniamina, ke hiki lakou ilaila, e like me ka mea lapuwale a pau a lakou i hana'i maloko o ka Iseraela.
We will take ten men of a hundred throughout all the tribes of Israel, and one hundred of a thousand, and one thousand of ten thousand, to get provisions for these people, so that when they come to Gibeah in Benjamin, they may punish them for the wickedness they committed in Israel.”
11 Alaila, hoakoakoa mai la na kanaka a pau o ka Iseraela, e ku e i ua kulanakauhale la, ua huipu e like me ke kanaka hookahi.
So all the soldiers of Israel assembled against the city, as one man.
12 Hoouna aku la na ohana o Iseraela i kanaka ma ka ohana a pau o Beniamina, i aku la, Heaha keia hewa i hanaia iwaena o oukou?
The tribes of Israel sent men through all the tribe of Benjamin, saying, “What is this wickedness that was done among you?
13 Nolaila ea, e haawi mai oukou ia poe kanaka i na kanaka hewa hoi ma Gibea, i pepehi aku makou ia lakou, a hoopau aku i ka hewa, mai Iseraela aku. Aole i hoolohe mai ka Beniamina i ka leo o ko lakou poe hoahanau, na mamo a Iseraela.
Therefore, give us those wicked men of Gibeah, so we may put them to death, and so we will completely remove this evil from Israel.” But the Benjamites would not listen to the voice of their brothers, the people of Israel.
14 Hoakoakoa mai la na mamo a Beniamina, mailoko mai o na kulanakauhale ma Gibea, e hele aku e kaua me na mamo a Iseraela.
Then the people of Benjamin came together out of the cities to Gibeah to get ready to fight against the people of Israel.
15 Ua heluia na mamo a Beniamina ia la, mailoko mai o na kulanakauhale, he iwakaluakumamaono tausani kanaka i unuhi i ka pahikaua, a koe aku ka poe i noho ma Gibea, a heluia lakou, ehiku haneri kanaka i waeia.
The people of Benjamin brought together from their cities to fight on that day twenty-six thousand soldiers who were trained to fight with the sword. In addition, there were seven hundred of their chosen men from the inhabitants of Gibeah.
16 Iloko o ia poe kanaka a pau, ehiku haneri kanaka i waeia, he poe lima hema; e hiki no ia lakou a pau ke maa aku i ka pohaku i ka lauoho, aole hoi e hala.
Among all these soldiers were seven hundred chosen men who were left-handed. Each of them could sling a stone at a hair and not miss.
17 A o na kanaka o ka Iseraela i heluia, eha haneri tausani lakou i unuhi i ka pahikaua, a koe aku ka Beniamina. He poe kanaka kaua keia a pau.
The people of Israel, not counting the number from Benjamin, numbered 400,000 men, who were trained to fight with the sword. All of these were men of war.
18 Ku mai la na mamo a Iseraela, a pii aku la i ka hale o ke Akua, ninau aku la i ke Akua, I aku la, Owai ko makou mea e pii mua aku ai, e kaua aku i na mamo a Beniamina? I mai la o Iehova, O Iuda mua.
The people of Israel arose, went up to Bethel, and asked for advice from God. They asked, “Who first will attack the people of Benjamin for us?” Yahweh said, “Judah will attack first.”
19 Ku mai la na mamo o ka Iseraela i kakahiaka, a hoonohonoho ku e aku la ia Gibea.
The people of Israel got up in the morning and they moved their camp near Gibeah.
20 Hele aku la na kanaka o Iseraela e kaua aku i ka Beniamina; a hoomakaukau iho na kanaka o Iseraela e kana aku ia lakou ma Gibea.
The people of Israel went out to fight against Benjamin. They set up their battle positions against them at Gibeah.
21 Puka mai la na mamo a Beniamina, mailoko mai o Gibea, a luku iho la ilalo i ka lepo ia la, he iwakaluakumamalua tausani kanaka o ka Iseraela.
The people of Benjamin came out of Gibeah, and they killed twenty-two thousand men of the army of Israel on that day.
22 Hooikaika iho la na kanaka o ka Iseraela, a hoomakaukau e hoouka hou i ke kaua ma kahi a lakou i hoouka ai i ka la mua.
But the people of Israel strengthened themselves and they formed the battle line in the same place where they had taken positions on the first day.
23 (Pii aku la na mamo a Iseraela, a uwe aku la imua o Iehova, a ahiahi, ninau aku la ia Iehova, i aku la, E pii hou anei au e kaua aku i na keiki a Beniamina, a kuu kaikaina? I mai la o Iehova, E pii ku e ia ia.)
Then the people of Israel went up and they wept before Yahweh until evening, and they sought direction from Yahweh. They said, “Should we go again to fight against our brothers, the people of Benjamin?” Yahweh said, “Attack them!”
24 A i ka lua o ka la hookokoke mai na mamo a Iseraela e ku e i na mamo a Beniamina.
So the people of Israel went against the soldiers of Benjamin the second day.
25 Puka mai la ka Beniamina mailoko mai o Gibea, i ka lua o ka la, a luku honua mai la i na mamo a Iseraela, he umikumamawalu tausani kanaka he poe unuhi pahikaua keia a pau.
On the second day, Benjamin went out against them from Gibeah and they killed eighteen thousand men from the people of Israel. All were men who trained to fight with the sword.
26 Alaila, pii aku la na mamo a Iseraela, a me na kanaka a pau, a hiki aku la i ka hale o ke Akua, a uwe aku la, a noho iho la imua o Iehova, a hookeai iho la ia la a po, a mohai aku la i na mohaikuni, a me na mohaimakana, imua o Iehova.
Then all the soldiers of Israel and all the people went up to Bethel and wept, and there they sat before Yahweh and they fasted that day until the evening and offered burnt offerings and peace offerings before Yahweh.
27 Ninau aku la na mamo a Iseraela ia Iehova, (no ka mea, malaila no ka pahuberita o ke Akua ia mau la,
The people of Israel asked Yahweh—for the ark of the covenant of God was there in those days,
28 O Pinehasa, ke keiki a Eleazara ke keiki a Aarona, ka i ku imua ona ia mau la, ) e aku la, E hele hou anei au e kaua aku i na mamo a Beniamina, a kuu kaikaina, e oki anei? I mai la o Iehova, O pii, no ka mea, apopo, e haawi au ia lakou iloko o kou lima.
and Phinehas, son of Eleazar son of Aaron, was serving before the ark in those days—”Should we go out to battle once more against the people of Benjamin, our brothers, or stop?” Yahweh said, “Attack, for tomorrow I will help you defeat them.”
29 Hoonoho iho la ka Iseraela i poe hoohalua a puni o Gibea.
So Israel set men in secret places around Gibeah.
30 Pii aku la na mamo a Iseraela e ku e i na mamo a Beniamina, i ke kolu o ka la, a hoomakaukau e kaua i ko Gibea e like me na wa mamua.
The people of Israel fought against the people of Benjamin for the third day, and they formed their battle lines against Gibeah as they had done before.
31 Puka aku la na mamo a Beniamina e ku e i kanaka, a kaiia'ku la lakou, mai ke kulanakauhale aku; a hoomaka e luku aku i kanaka, me ka hou aku e like me ka wa mamua, ma na ala e pii aku ai i Betela, a i na kula o Gibea kekahi, he kanakolu paha kanaka o Iseraela.
The people of Benjamin went and fought against the people, and they were drawn away from the city. They began to kill some of the people. There were about thirty men of Israel who died in the fields and on the roads. One of the roads went up to Bethel, and the other went to Gibeah.
32 I iho la na mamo a Beniamina, Ua lukuia lakou imua o kakou e like me ka wa mamua. Olelo no hoi na mamo a Iseraela, E hee kakou, a e kai aku ia lakou, mai ke kulanakauhale aku, a i na alanui.
Then the people of Benjamin said, “They are defeated and they are running away from us, just as at first.” But the soldiers of Israel said, “Let us run back and draw them away from the city to the roads.”
33 Ku mai la na kanaka a pau o ka Iseraela, mai ko lakou wahi mai, a hoomakaukau iho la e kaua ma Baalatamara. A o ka poe hoohalua o ka Iseraela, lulumi mai la lakou mailoko mai o ko lakou wahi, mai na kula mai o Gibea.
All the people of Israel rose up out of their places and formed themselves into lines for battle at Baal Tamar. Then the soldiers of Israel who had been hiding in secret places ran out from their places from Maareh Gibeah.
34 Hele ku e mai la ia Gibea, he umi tausani kanaka i waeia mailoko mai o ka Iseraela a pau, a ikaika loa iho la ke kaua; aole nae lakou i ike, ua kokoke mai ka hewa ia lakou.
There came out against Gibeah ten thousand chosen men out of all Israel, and the fighting was fierce, but the Benjamites did not know that disaster was close to them.
35 Luku mai la o Iehova i ka Beniamina imua o ka Iseraela. Luku ae la na mamo a Iseraela i ka Beniamina ia la, he iwakaluakumamalima tausani kanaka, hookahi haneri keu; unuhi keia poe a pau i ka pahikaua.
Yahweh defeated Benjamin before Israel. On that day, the soldiers of Israel killed 25,100 men of Benjamin. All these who died were those who had been trained to fight with the sword.
36 Ike iho la na mamo a Beniamina, ua lukuia lakou; no ka mea, haawi ae la no hoi na kanaka o Iseraela i wahi no ka Beniamina, no ko lakou manao ana i ka poe hoohalua a lakou i hoonoho ai ma Gibea.
So the soldiers of Benjamin saw they were defeated. The men of Israel had given ground to Benjamin, because they were counting on the men they had placed in hidden positions outside Gibeah.
37 A o ka poe hoohalua, wikiwiki iho lakou, a lele aku ia Gibea, a hoopalahalaha ae la ia lakou iho, a luku aku la i ua kulanakauhale la.
Then the men who were hiding got up and hurried and they rushed into Gibeah, and they struck all the city with the edge of the sword.
38 Ua hoomaopopoia ka manawa i na kanaka o ka Iseraela, a me ka poe hoohalua, i hana lakou i ka uwahi, i mea punohu aku iluna, mailoko aku o ke kulanakauhale.
The arranged signal between the soldiers of Israel and the men hiding in secret would be that a great cloud of smoke would rise up out of the city.
39 A hee na kanaka o Iseraela i ke kaua, hoomaka iho la ko Beniamina e luku aku, me ka hou iho i kanaka o Iseraela, i kanakolu paha kanaka; no ka mea, olelo lakou, He oiaio no, ua lukuia lakou imua o kakou, e like me ke kaua mua ana.
When the signal was sent the soldiers of Israel would turn from the battle. Now Benjamin began to attack and they killed about thirty men of Israel, and they said, “It is sure that they are defeated before us, as in the first battle.”
40 A pii aku la ka lapalapa o ke ahi, mai ke kulanakauhale aku, a lilo i kiaao; alaila, nana aku la ko Beniamina mahope o lakou, aia hoi, punohu aku la ka wela ana o ke kulanakauhale a pau i ka lani.
But when a pillar of smoke began to rise up out of the city, the Benjamites turned and saw the smoke rising to the sky from the whole city.
41 A huli hou na kanaka o Iseraela, alaila, hee pioloke iho la na kanaka o Beniamina; no ka mea, ua ike lakou ua hiki mai ka hewa maluna o lakou.
Then the people of Israel turned against them. The men of Benjamin were terrified, for they saw that disaster had come on them.
42 Nolaila, huli lakou, mai ke alo aku o na kanaka o ka Iseraela, a i ke ala e hiki aku ai i ka waonahele; aka, hahai no ke kaua ia lakou, a luku no lakou i ka poe mailoko mai o na kauhale iwaenakonu o lakou.
So they ran away from the people of Israel, escaping on the way to the wilderness. But the fighting overtook them. The soldiers of Israel came out of the cities and killed them where they stood.
43 Hoopuni iho la lakou i ko Beniamina, a hahai aku la ia lakou, a hahi iho la maluna o lakou ma Menuka, ma ke alo o Gibea, ma ka hikina o ka la.
They surrounded the Benjamites, chased them and trampled them down at Nohah, all the way to the east side of Gibeah.
44 He umikumamawalu tausani kanaka o Beniamina i haule, he poe kanaka koa keia a pau.
From the tribe of Benjamin, eighteen thousand people died, all of them men who were distinguished in battle.
45 Huli lakou, a pee aku i ka waonahele, i ka pohaku o Rimona; a hoiliili lakou i ke koena ma na alanui, elima tausani kanaka, a hahai aku ia lakou a hiki i Gidoma, a luku aku la i elua tausani kanaka.
They turned and fled toward the wilderness to the rock of Rimmon. The Israelites killed five thousand more of them along the roads. They kept going after them, following them closely all the way to Gidom, and there they killed two thousand more.
46 A o na kanaka a pau o Beniamina i haule. he iwakaluakumamalima tausani kanaka i unuhi i ka pahikaua. He poe kanaka koa keia a pau.
All the soldiers of Benjamin who fell that day were twenty-five thousand—men who were trained to fight with the sword; all of them were distinguished in battle.
47 Eono haneri kanaka i huli a pee i ka waonahele, malalo o ka pohaku o Rimona, a noho ma ka pohaku o Rimona, i eha malama.
But six hundred men turned and fled to the wilderness, toward the rock of Rimmon. For four months they stayed at the rock of Rimmon.
48 Huli hou na kanaka o Iseraela e alo i na mamo a Beniamina, a luku aku la ia lakou i ka maka o ka pahikaua, mai na kanaka aku a na holoholona, a me na mea a pau, i loaa ia lakou. A puhi iho la lakou i na kulanakauhale a pau i ke ahi, ma na wahi a lakou i hiki aku ai.
The soldiers of Israel turned back against the people of Benjamin and struck them with the edge of the sword, the city, including the animals and everything that they found. They also burned down every town in their path.
