< 1 Samuel 29 >

1 Now the Philistines brought all their forces together at Aphek, while Israel camped by the spring in Jezreel.
HOAKOAKOA ae la na Pilisetia i ko lakou poe kaua a pau ma Apeka: a hoomoana ae la ka Iseraela ma ka waipuna aia ma Iezereela.
2 As the Philistine leaders marched out their units of hundreds and thousands, David and his men marched behind them with Achish.
A hele ae la na haku o na Pilisetia ma na haneri, a ma na tausani: aka, o Davida a me kona poe kanaka hele lakou mahope me Akisa.
3 Then the commanders of the Philistines asked, “What about these Hebrews?” Achish replied, “Is this not David, the servant of King Saul of Israel? He has been with me all these days, even years, and from the day he defected until today I have found no fault in him.”
Olelo mai la na'lii o na Pilisetia, I mea aha la keia poe Hebera? I aku la o Akisa i na'lii o na Pilisetia, Aole anei o Davida keia, ke kauwa a Saula, ke alii o ka Iseraela, ka mea i noho me au i neia mau la a i neia mau makahiki, aole i loaa ia'u ka mea i hewa ai oia mai ka wa i noho ai ia me au a hiki i keia la?
4 But the commanders of the Philistines were angry with Achish and told him, “Send that man back and let him return to the place you assigned him. He must not go down with us into battle only to become our adversary during the war. What better way for him to regain the favor of his master than with the heads of our men?
Huhu iho la na'lii o na Pilisetia ia ia, a i aku la na'lii o na Pilisetia ia ia, E hoihoi aku oe i keia kanaka ma kona wahi au i hoonoho ai ia ia, a, mai hele pu ia me kakou i ke kaua, o lilo ia i enemi no kakou i ke kaua ana: no ka mea, me ke aha la e hooluolu ai ia i kona haku? Aole anei me na poo o keia poe kanaka?
5 Is this not the David about whom they sing in their dances: ‘Saul has slain his thousands, and David his tens of thousands’?”
Aole anei o Davida keia a lakou i mele ai i kekahi i kekahi me ka haa ana, i ka i ana ae, He mau tausani ka Saula i pepehi, he umi tausani ka Davida?
6 So Achish summoned David and told him, “As surely as the LORD lives, you have been upright in my sight, and it seems right that you should march in and out with me in the army, because I have found no fault in you from the day you came to me until this day. But you have no favor in the sight of the leaders.
Alaila hea aku la o Akisa ia Davida, i aku la ia ia, He oiaio, ma ke ola o Iehova, he pono kou, a o kou hele ana'ku, a o kou hoi ana mai me au ma ke kaua, ua maikai no ia imua o ko'u maka: no ka mea, aole i loaa ia'u ka hewa iloko ou mai ka manawa au i hele mai ai io'u nei, a hiki i keia la: aka, aole ou pono imua o na haku.
7 Therefore turn back now and go in peace, so that you will not do anything to displease the leaders of the Philistines.”
No ia mea, e hoi oe, a e hele me ke aloha, i ole ai oe e hewa imua o na haku o na Pilisetia.
8 “But what have I done?” David replied. “What have you found against your servant, from the day I came to you until today, to keep me from going along to fight against the enemies of my lord the king?”
I aku la o Davida ia Akisa, Heaha ka'u i hana'i? a heaha la i loaa'i ia oe iloko o kau kauwa i ko'u manawa i noho pu ai me oe a hiki i keia la, i ole ai au e hele e kaua aku i na enemi o kuu haku o ke alii?
9 Achish replied, “I know that you are as pleasing in my sight as an angel of God. But the commanders of the Philistines have said, ‘He must not go into battle with us.’
Olelo mai la o Akisa, i mai la ia Davida, Ua ike au, he pono kou imua o'u me he anela la o ke Akua; aka, ua i mai na haku o na Pilisetia, Aole ia e hele pu me kakou i ke kaua.
10 Now then, get up early in the morning, along with your master’s servants who came with you, and go as soon as it is light.”
Ano hoi, e ala ae oe i kakahiaka nui me na kauwa a kou haku i hele pu mai me oe: a i ko oukou ala ana i kakahiaka nui, a malamalama, alaila hele aku.
11 So David and his men got up early in the morning to return to the land of the Philistines. And the Philistines went up to Jezreel.
A ala ae la o Davida a me kona poe kanaka i kakahiaka nui e hele, a hoi aku i ka aina o na Pilisetia. A pii ae la na Pilisetia ma Iezereela.
