1 Whakapapa 10
1 Na kua whawhai nga Pirihitini ki a Iharaira; a ka whati nga tangata o Iharaira i te aroaro o nga Pirihitini, a hinga ana, mate rawa, i Maunga Kiripoa.
Now the Philistines warred against Israel; and they fled from before the Philistines, and fell down slain in mount Gelbue.
2 Na ka whaia e nga Pirihitini a Haora ratou ko ana tama; a patua iho e nga Pirihitini a Honatana ratou ko Apinarapa, ko Marikihua, nga tama a Haora.
And the Philistines pursued after Saul, and after his sons; and the Philistines struck Jonathan, and Aminadab, and Melchisue, sons of Saul.
3 Na kua taikaha haere te whawhai ki a Haora, a kua mau ia i nga kaikopere; a kua he tona manawa i nga kaikopere.
And the battle prevailed against Saul, and the archers hit him with bows and arrows, and they were wounded of the bows.
4 Katahi a Haora ka mea ki tana kaimau patu, Unuhia tau hoari, werohia hoki ahau; kei haere mai tenei hunga kokotikore, kei whakatupu kino i ahau. Otiia kihai i pai tana kaimau patu; he nui hoki no tona hopohopo. Heoi ka mau a Haora ki tana hoari, hinga iho ana ki runga.
And Saul said to his armor-bearer, Draw your sword, and pierce me through with it, lest these uncircumcised come and mock me. But his armor-bearer would not, for he was greatly afraid: so Saul took a sword, and fell upon it.
5 A, no te kitenga o tana kaimau patu kua mate a Haora, ka hinga hoki ia ki runga ki tana hoari, a ka mate.
And his armor-bearer saw that Saul was dead, and he also fell upon his sword.
6 Heoi ka mate a Haora me ana tama tokotoru; mate tahi ana tona whare katoa.
So Saul died, and his three sons on that day, and all his family died at the same time.
7 A, no te kitenga o nga tangata katoa o Iharaira i te raorao kua whati ratou, kua mate hoki a Haora ratou ko ana tama, whakarerea ake e ratou o ratou pa, a rere ana; na ka haere mai nga Pirihitini, a nohoia iho e ratou.
And all the men of Israel that were in the valley saw that Israel fled, and that Saul and his sons were dead, and they left their cities, and fled: and the Philistines came and lived in them.
8 A, i te aonga ake, i te haerenga mai o nga Pirihitini ki te muru i te hunga i patua, na ka kitea a Haora ratou ko ana tama e takoto ana i runga i Maunga Kiripoa.
And it came to pass on the next [day] that the Philistines came to strip the slain, and they found Saul and his sons fallen on mount Gelbue.
9 Na huia ana ona e ratou, tangohia ana tona upoko me ana patu, tukua ana kia kawea puta noa i te whenua o nga Pirihitini a tawhio noa, kia kauwhautia ki a ratou whakapakoko, ki te iwi.
And they stripped him, and took his head, and his armor, and sent them into the land of the Philistines round about, to proclaim the glad tidings to their idols, and to the people.
10 I whakatakotoria hoki e ratou ana patu ki te whare o o ratou atua, a ko tona upoko titia ake e ratou ki te whare o Rakono.
And they put their armor in the house of their god, and they put his head in the house of Dagon.
11 A, no te rongonga o Iapehe Kireara katoa ki nga mea katoa i mea ai nga Pirihitini ki a Haora,
And all the dwellers in Galaad heard of all that the Philistines had done to Saul and to Israel.
12 Ka whakatika nga marohirohi katoa, tangohia iho e ratou te tinana o Haora, me nga tinana o ana tama, kawea ana ki Iapehe, tanumia ana o ratou wheua ki raro i tetahi oki i Iapehe, a e whitu nga ra i nohopuku ai ratou.
And all the mighty men rose up from Galaad, and they took the body of Saul, and the bodies of his sons, and brought them to Jabis, and buried their bones under the oak in Jabis, and fasted seven days.
13 Heoi kua mate a Haora mo tona he i he ai ia ki a Ihowa, mo te kupu a Ihowa kihai nei i puritia e ia; mona hoki i ui ki tetahi, i a ia nei te atua maori, he rapu whakaaro,
So Saul died for his transgressions, wherein he transgressed against God, against the word of the Lord, forasmuch as he kept [it] not, because Saul enquired of a wizard to seek [counsel], and Samuel the prophet answered him:
14 A kihai i rapu whakaaro i a Ihowa: no reira i whakamatea ai ia e ia, a hurihia ketia ana te kingitanga ki a Rawiri tama a Hehe.
and he sought not the Lord: so he killed him, and turned the kingdom to David the son of Jesse.
