1 Samuel 14
1 One day Jonathan son of Saul said to the young man bearing his armor, “Come, let us cross over to the Philistine outpost on the other side.” But Jonathan did not tell his father.
A I kekahi la, olelo aku la o Ionatana ke keiki a Saula ike kanaka ui, nana i hali kana mea kaua, Ea, e hele kaua i ka pakaua o ko Pilisetia ma kela aoao. Aka, aole ia i hai aku i kona makuakane.
2 Meanwhile, Saul was staying under the pomegranate tree in Migron on the outskirts of Gibeah. And the troops who were with him numbered about six hundred men,
Noho iho la o Saula ma ka aoao mamao loa o Gibea, malalo o ka laau pomegerane ma Migerona: a o na Kanaka me ia, aono paha haneri lakou;
3 including Ahijah, who was wearing an ephod. He was the son of Ichabod’s brother Ahitub son of Phinehas, the son of Eli the priest of the LORD in Shiloh. But the troops did not know that Jonathan had left.
A o Ahia, ke keiki a Ahituba, a ke kaikuaana o Ikaboda, ke keiki a Pinehasa, ke keiki a Eli, ke kahuna a Iehova ma Silo, ua hookomoia ka epoda. Aole i ike na kanaka, ua hala o Ionatana.
4 Now there were cliffs on both sides of the pass that Jonathan intended to cross to reach the Philistine outpost. One was named Bozez and the other Seneh.
A ma ke ala a Ionatana i imi ai e hele i ka poe koa o ko Pilisetia, he pohaku oi ma keia aoao, a he pohaku oi ma kela aoao: o Bozeza ka inoa o kekahi, a o Sene ka inoa o kekahi.
5 One cliff stood to the north toward Michmash, and the other to the south toward Geba.
A o ka mea oi o kekahi, ua kiekie ia ma ke kukuluakau e ku pono ana i Mikemasa, a o kekahi ma ke kukuluhema e ku pono ana i Gibea.
6 Jonathan said to the young man bearing his armor, “Come, let us cross over to the outpost of these uncircumcised men. Perhaps the LORD will work on our behalf. Nothing can hinder the LORD from saving, whether by many or by few.”
Olelo aku la o Ionatana i ke kanaka ui, nana i hali kana mea kaua, Ea, e hele kaua i kahi paa o ua poe la i okipoepoe ole ia: e hana mai paha o Iehova no kaua; no ka mea, aohe mea keakea ia Iehova, ke hoola ma ka poe nui, a ma ka poe uuku.
7 His armor-bearer replied, “Do all that is in your heart. Go ahead; I am with you heart and soul.”
I mai la ka mea nana i hali kana mea kaua ia ia, E hana oe i ka mea a pau maloko o kou naau: o hele; aia hoi, owau pu kekahi me oe e like me kou manao.
8 “Very well,” said Jonathan, “we will cross over toward these men and show ourselves to them.
Olelo aku la o Ionatana, Aia hoi, e hele kaua i ua poe kanaka la, a e hoike ia kaua iho ia lakou.
9 If they say, ‘Wait until we come to you,’ then we will stay where we are and will not go up to them.
Ina e olelo mai lakou ia kaua peneia, E noho malie olua a hiki aku makou io olua la; alaila ku malie kaua ma ko kaua wahi, aole e pii aku io lakou la.
10 But if they say, ‘Come on up,’ then we will go up, because this will be our sign that the LORD has delivered them into our hands.”
Aka, i olelo mai lakou ia kaua peneia, E pii mai olua io makou nei; alaila e pii aku kaua: no ka mea, ua hoolilo mai o Iehova ia lakou i ko kaua lima; a oia ka hoailona no kaua.
11 So the two of them showed themselves to the outpost of the Philistines, who exclaimed, “Look, the Hebrews are coming out of the holes in which they were hiding!”
Hoike aku la laua ia laua iho i ka poe koa o ko Pilisetia: i ae la ko Pilisetia, E nana i ka poe Hebera e hele mai ana mailoko mai o na lua a lakou i pee ai.
12 So the men of the outpost called out to Jonathan and his armor-bearer, “Come on up, and we will teach you a lesson!” “Follow me,” Jonathan told his armor-bearer, “for the LORD has delivered them into the hand of Israel.”
Olelo mai la na kanaka o ka poe koa ia Ionatana, a me ka mea nana i hali kana mea kaua, i mai la, E pii mai olua io makou nei, a e hoike aku makou ia olua i kekahi mea. I aku la Ionatana i ka mea nana i hali kana mea kaua, E pii mai oe mahope o'u; no ka mea, ua hoolilo mai o Iehova ia lakou iloko o ka lima o ka Iseraela.
13 So Jonathan climbed up on his hands and feet, with his armor-bearer behind him. And the Philistines fell before Jonathan, and his armor-bearer followed and finished them off.
Pii ae la o Ionatana ma kona lima, a ma kona wawae, a o ka mea nana i hali kana mea kaua mahope ona: a haule lakou imua o Ionatana; a o ka mea nana i hali kana mea kaua pepehi aku la ia mahope ona.
14 In that first assault, Jonathan and his armor-bearer struck down about twenty men over half an acre of land.
A o ka pepehi mua ana a Ionatana a me ka mea nana i hali kana mea kaua, he iwakalua paha kanaka ia, ma kahi kokoke, e like paha me ka hapalua o ka eka aina hookahi.
15 Then terror struck the Philistines in the camp, in the field, and among all the people. Even those in the outposts and raiding parties trembled. Indeed, the earth quaked and panic spread from God.
He haalulu iwaena o ka poe koa ma ke kula, a iwaena o na kanaka a pau; a o ka poe kaua, a o ka poe luku, haalulu iho la lakou, nauwe ka aina; a he haalulu nui.
16 Now when Saul’s watchmen at Gibeah in Benjamin looked and saw the troops melting away and scattering in every direction,
Nana aku la ka poe kiai o Saula ma Gibea o Beniamina; aia hoi, ua hee aku la ka poe nui, a holo lakou, a hele liilii aku.
17 Saul said to the troops who were with him, “Call the roll and see who has left us.” And when they had called the roll, they saw that Jonathan and his armor-bearer were not there.
Olelo aku la o Saula i na kanaka me ia, E helu ano, i ike kakou i ka mea i hele ae mai o kakou aku. Helu aku la lakou, aia hoi, aole o Ionatana, a me ka mea nana i hali kana mea kaua.
18 Then Saul said to Ahijah, “Bring the ark of God.” (For at that time it was with the Israelites.)
I aku la o Saula ia Ahia, E lawe mai maanei i ka pahu o ke Akua: no ka mea, i kela manawa, aia no ka pahu o ke Akua me na mamo a Iseraela.
19 While Saul was talking to the priest, the commotion in the Philistine camp continued to increase. So Saul said to the priest, “Withdraw your hand.”
A ia Saula i kamailio ai me ke kahuna, ua nui loa ka haunaele iwaena o ka poe koa o ko Pilisetia; i aku la o Saula i ke kahuna, E hoi hou mai i kou lima.
20 Then Saul and all his troops assembled and marched to the battle, and they found the Philistines in total confusion, with each man wielding the sword against his neighbor.
Houluuluia'e la o Saula me na kanaka a pau me ia, a hele aku i ke kaua: aia hoi, ua ku e ka pahikaua a kela kanaka keia kanaka i kona hoa, a ua nui loa ka pioloke.
21 And the Hebrews who had previously gone up into the surrounding camps of the Philistines now went over to the Israelites who were with Saul and Jonathan.
A o ka poe Hebera i noho ai me ko Pilisetia mamua, a i hele pu ai me lakou i kahi hoomoana'i, mai kela wahi keia wahi, o lakou kekahi i hui pu ai me ka Iseraela me Saula a me Ionatana.
22 When all the Israelites who had been hiding in the hill country of Ephraim heard that the Philistines were fleeing, they also joined Saul and Jonathan in the battle.
A o na kanaka a pau o ka Iseraela i pee ai ma ka mauna o Eperaima, ia lakou i lohe ai, ua holo ko Pilisetia, o lakou no hoi kekahi i hahai mahope o lakou i ke kaua.
23 So the LORD saved Israel that day, and the battle moved on beyond Beth-aven.
A hoopakele mai o Iehova i ka Iseraela ia la: a hele aku la ke kaua ma Betavena.
24 Now the men of Israel were in distress that day, for Saul had placed the troops under an oath, saying, “Cursed is the man who eats any food before evening, before I have taken vengeance on my enemies.” So none of the troops tasted any food.
A ua pilikia na kanaka o ka Iseraela ia la: no ka mea, ua hoohiki aku o Saula i na kauaka, i aku la, Poino ke kanaka, ke ai ia i ka ai a hiki i ke ahiahi, i hoopai aku ai au i ko'u poe enemi. Nolaila, aole i ai na kanaka i ka ai.
25 Then all the troops entered the forest, and there was honey on the ground.
A hele na kanaka a pau ma ka ululaau; a he meli maluna o ka aina.
26 And when they entered the forest and saw the flowing honey, not one of them put his hand to his mouth, because they feared the oath.
A hiki na kanaka ma ka ululaau, aia hoi, e kahe ana o ka meli, aole ka lima o kekahi kanaka i hoopa aku i kona waha: no ka mea, makau na kanaka i ka hoohiki ana.
27 Jonathan, however, had not heard that his father had charged the people with the oath. So he reached out the end of the staff in his hand, dipped it into the honeycomb, and put his hand to his mouth; and his eyes brightened.
Aka, aole i lohe o Ionatana i ke kauoha a kona makuakane i na kanaka i ka hoohiki ana; nolaila, o aku la ia i ke kookoo ma kona lima, a hou iho la iloko o ka waihona meli, a hoopa kona lima i kona waha, a hoomalamalamaia kona mau maka.
28 Then one of the soldiers told him, “Your father bound the troops with a solemn oath, saying, ‘Cursed is the man who eats food today.’ That is why the people are faint.”
Alaila, olelo mai la kekahi o na kanaka, i mai la, Ua kauoha ikaika mai kou makuakane i na kanaka me ka hoohiki, i mai la, Poino ke kanaka, ke ai i ka ai i keia la. A ua nawaliwali na kanaka.
29 “My father has brought trouble to the land,” Jonathan replied. “Just look at how my eyes have brightened because I tasted a little of this honey.
Olelo aku la o Ionatana, i aku la, Ua hoopilikia ko'u makuakane i ka aina: ke noi aku nei au ia oukou, e nana, ua hoomalamalamaia ko'u mau maka, no kuu hoao ana i kauwahi uuku o keia meli.
30 How much better it would have been if the troops had eaten freely today from the plunder they took from their enemies! Would not the slaughter of the Philistines have been much greater?”
Aole anei he nui aku, ina paha ua ai nui na kanaka i keia la i ka mea o ko lakou poe enemi i loaa ai ia lakou? Aole anei he nui aku ka luku iwaena o ko Pilisetia?
31 That day, after the Israelites had struck down the Philistines from Michmash to Aijalon, the people were very faint.
A luku aku la lakou i ko Pilisetia ia la, mai Mikemasa a hiki i Aialona: a ua nawaliwali loa na kanaka.
32 So they rushed greedily to the plunder, taking sheep, cattle, and calves. They slaughtered them on the ground and ate meat with the blood still in it.
Lalau aku la na kanaka i ka waiwai pio, a lawe i na hipa, a me na bipi, a me na bipikeiki, a pepehi iho la ma ka aina; a ai iho la na kanaka me ke koko.
33 Then someone reported to Saul: “Look, the troops are sinning against the LORD by eating meat with the blood still in it.” “You have broken faith,” said Saul. “Roll a large stone over here at once.”
Hai aku la lakou ia Saula, i aku la, Aia hoi, ke hana hewa nei na kanaka ia Iehova, i ka lakou ai ana me ke koko. I mai la kela, Ua hana pono ole oukou: e olokaa mai i pohaku nui io'u nei i keia la.
34 Then he said, “Go among the troops and tell them, ‘Each man must bring me his ox or his sheep, slaughter them in this place, and then eat. Do not sin against the LORD by eating meat with the blood still in it.’” So that night everyone brought his ox and slaughtered it there.
Olelo aku la o Saula, E hele oukou iwaena o na kanaka, e i aku ia lakou, E lawe mai io'u nei kela kanaka keia kanaka i kana bipi a me kana hipa, a e pepehi maanei, a ai iho; a mai hana hewa ia Iehova i ka ai ana me ke koko. A lawe mai la na kanaka a pau, o kela kanaka keia kanaka i kana bipi, me ia ia po, a pepehi iho la malaila.
35 Then Saul built an altar to the LORD; it was the first time he had built an altar to the LORD.
Hana aku la o Saula i kuahu no Iehova, oia ke kuahu ana i hoomaka ai e hana no Iehova.
36 And Saul said, “Let us go down after the Philistines by night and plunder them until dawn, leaving no man alive!” “Do what seems good to you,” the troops replied. But the priest said, “We must consult God here.”
I aku la o Saula, E hahai aku kakou i ko Pilisetia i ka po, a e luku aku ia lakou a hiki i ka malamalama o ke ao, a mai waiho kakou i kekahi kauaka o lakou. I mai la lakou, E hana oe i ka mea pono i kou maka. I mai la ke kahuna, E hookoke mai nei kakou i ke Akua.
37 So Saul inquired of God, “Shall I go down after the Philistines? Will You give them into the hand of Israel?” But God did not answer him that day.
Ninau aku la o Saula i ke Akua, E hahai aku anei au i ko Pilisetia? e hoolilo mai anei oe ia lakou i ka lima o ka Iseraela? Aka, aole ia i olelo mai ia ia ia la.
38 Therefore Saul said, “Come here, all you leaders of the troops, and let us investigate how this sin has occurred today.
Olelo aku la o Saula, E hookokoke mai oukou ia nei, e na alakai o na kanaka; i ike pono kakou i ka mea o keia hewa i keia la.
39 As surely as the LORD who saves Israel lives, even if it is my son Jonathan, he must die!” But not one of the troops said a word.
No ka mea, ma ke ola o Iehova nana i hoola i ka Iseraela, ina paha iloko o Ionatana ka'u keiki keia mea, e make io no ia. Aole kekahi kanaka iwaena o ka Iseraela i olelo mai ia ia.
40 Then Saul said to all Israel, “You stand on one side, and I and my son Jonathan will stand on the other side.” “Do what seems good to you,” the troops replied.
Olelo aku la ia i ka Iseraela a pau, O oukou ma kekahi aoao, a owau a me Ionatana kuu keiki, ma kekahi aoao. I mai la na kanaka ia Saula, E hana oe i ka mea pono i kou maka.
41 So Saul said to the LORD, the God of Israel, “Why have You not answered Your servant this day? If the fault is with me or my son Jonathan, respond with Urim; but if the fault is with the men of Israel, respond with Thummim.” And Jonathan and Saul were selected, but the people were cleared of the charge.
Olelo aku la o Saula ia Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela, E hoike mai i ka oiaio. A ua laweia o Saula a me Ionatana: a pakele na kanaka.
42 Then Saul said, “Cast the lot between me and my son Jonathan.” And Jonathan was selected.
I aku la o Saula, E hailona iwaena o maua a me Ionatana kuu keiki. A ua laweia o Ionatana.
43 “Tell me what you have done,” Saul commanded him. So Jonathan told him, “I only tasted a little honey with the end of the staff that was in my hand. And now I must die?”
Alaila i aku la o Saula ia Ionatana, E hai mai oe ia'u i kau mea i hana'i. Hai aku la o Ionatana, i aku la, Ua hoao iho au i kahi meli uuku wale no me ke kookoo ma kuu lima, aia hoi, e make ana au.
44 And Saul declared, “May God punish me, and ever so severely, if you, Jonathan, do not surely die!”
I aku la o Saula, Pela ke Akua e hana mai ai, pela io hoi, no ka mea, e make io no oe, e Ionatana.
45 But the people said to Saul, “Must Jonathan die—he who accomplished such a great deliverance for Israel? Never! As surely as the LORD lives, not a hair of his head will fall to the ground, for with God’s help he has accomplished this today.” So the people rescued Jonathan, and he did not die.
Olelo mai la na kanaka ia Saula, E make anei o Ionatana, nana i hana keia ola nui iwaena o ka Iseraela? Aole loa, ma ke ola o Iehova, aole e haule iho ma ka honua kekahi lauoho o kona poo; no ka mea, ua hana pu aku ia me ke Akua i keia la. A hoopakele aku la na kanaka ia Ionatana, aole ia i make.
46 Then Saul gave up his pursuit of the Philistines, and the Philistines returned to their own land.
Haalele aku la o Saula i ka hahai ana i ko Pilisetia: a hoi aku la ko Pilisetia i ko lakou wahi.
47 After Saul had assumed the kingship over Israel, he fought against all his enemies on every side—the Moabites, the Ammonites, the Edomites, the kings of Zobah, and the Philistines. Wherever he turned, he routed them.
A lawe ae la o Saula i ke aupuni o ka Iseraela, a kana aku la i kona poe enemi a pau, ma na aoao a pau i ko Moaba, a me na mamo a Amona, a me ka Edoma, a me na'lii o Zoba, a me ko Pilisetia, a ma na wahi a pau ana i huli ae, ua lanakila ia.
48 He fought valiantly and defeated the Amalekites, delivering Israel from the hands of its plunderers.
Hana ikaika aku la ia, a luku aku la i ka Ameleka, a hoopakele i ka Iseraela i ka lima o ka poe i luku mai ia lakou.
49 Now the sons of Saul were Jonathan, Ishvi, and Malchishua. His two daughters were named Merab (his firstborn) and Michal (his younger daughter).
Eia na keiki a Saula, o Ionatana, o Isui a me Melekisua: a o ka inoa o kana mau kaikamahine elua, o Meraba ka inoa o ke kaikuaana, a o Mikala ka inoa o ke kaikaina.
50 His wife’s name was Ahinoam daughter of Ahimaaz. The name of the commander of his army was Abner, the son of Saul’s uncle Ner.
A o Ahinoama ka inoa o ka wahine a Saula, ke kaikamahine a Ahimaaza; a o ka inoa o kona alihikaua, o Abenera, ke keiki a Nera, kahi makua o Saula.
51 Saul’s father Kish and Abner’s father Ner were sons of Abiel.
A o Kisa ka makuakane o Saula: a o Nera ka makuakane o Abenera, ke keiki a Abiela.
52 And the war with the Philistines was fierce for all the days of Saul. So whenever he noticed any strong or brave man, Saul would enlist him.
A ua nui ke kaua ana i ko Pilisetia i na la a pau o Saula: a ike aku la o Saula i ke kanaka ikaika, a i ke kanaka koaka, lawe aku la kela ia ia nona.
