2 Samuel 11
1 In the spring, at the time when kings march out to war, David sent out Joab and his servants with the whole army of Israel. They destroyed the Ammonites and besieged Rabbah, but David remained in Jerusalem.
A I ka makahiki hou, i ka manawa e hele aku ai na alii [i ke kaua, ] hoouna aku la o Davida ia Ioaba, a me na kauwa ana me ia, a me ka Iseraela a pau; a luku aku la lakou i ka poe mamo a Amona; a pue aku la ia Raba: aka, noho iho la o Davida ma Ierusalema ia manawa.
2 One evening David got up from his bed and strolled around on the roof of the palace. And from the roof he saw a woman bathing—a very beautiful woman.
A i ka manawa ahiahi, ala'e la o Davida mai kona wahi moe, a holoholo ae la maluna o ka hale o ke alii: nana aku la ia mai luna ae o ka hale i kekahi wahine e auau ana: a he maikai loa ua wahine la ke nanaia'ku.
3 So David sent and inquired about the woman, and he was told, “This is Bathsheba, the daughter of Eliam and the wife of Uriah the Hittite.”
Hoouna aku la o Davida e ninau aku no ka wahine. I mai la kekahi, Aole anei keia o Bateseba ke kaikamahine a Eliama, ka wahine hoi a Uria ka Heta?
4 Then David sent messengers to get her, and when she came to him, he slept with her. (Now she had just purified herself from her uncleanness.) Then she returned home.
Hoouna aku la o Davida i na mea kii aku, a lalau aku la ia ia: a hele mai la ia iloko io na la, a moe iho la kela me ia; no ka mea, ua huikalaia oia i kona haumia ana: a hoi hou aku la ia i kona hale.
5 And the woman conceived and sent word to David, saying, “I am pregnant.”
A hapai ae la ua wahine la, hoouna aku la a hai ia Davida, i ka i ana, Ua hapai au.
6 At this, David sent orders to Joab: “Send me Uriah the Hittite.” So Joab sent him to David.
Hoouna aku la o Davida io Ioaba la, i aku la, E hoouna mai oe ia Uria ka Heta i o'u nei. A hoouna mai la o Ioaba ia Uria io Davida la.
7 When Uriah came to him, David asked how Joab and the troops were doing with the war.
A hiki mai la o Uria io na la, ninau aku la o Davida ia ia i ka pomaikai o Ioaba, me ka pomaikai o na kanaka, a me ka pomaikai ana o ke kaua.
8 Then he said to Uriah, “Go down to your house and wash your feet.” So Uriah left the palace, and a gift from the king followed him.
I aku la o Davida ia Uria, e iho iho oe i kou hale, a e holoi i kou wawae. A hele aku la o Uria iwaho o ka hale o ke alii, a ukali aku la kekahi ai mahope ona na ke alii aku.
9 But Uriah slept at the door of the palace with all his master’s servants; he did not go down to his house.
Aka, hiamoe iho la o Uria ma ka puka o ka hale o ke alii me na kauwa a pau a kona haku, aole ia i hele aku i kona hale.
10 And David was told, “Uriah did not go home.” “Haven’t you just arrived from a journey?” David asked Uriah. “Why didn’t you go home?”
Hai aku la lakou ia Davida, i aku la, Aole i hele aku o Uria i kona hale. Ninau aku la o Davida ia Uria, Aole anei oe i hele mai mai kou hele ana? Heaha hoi kau i hele ole aku ai i kou hale?
11 Uriah answered, “The ark and Israel and Judah are dwelling in tents, and my master Joab and his soldiers are camped in the open field. How can I go to my house to eat and drink and sleep with my wife? As surely as you live, and as your soul lives, I will not do such a thing!”
I aku la o Uria ia Davida, Ke noho nei ka pahuberita, a o ka Iseraela a o ka Iuda iloko o na halelewa; ke hoomoana la hoi kuu haku o Ioaba me na kauwa a kuu haku mawaho ma ke kula; e komo anei hoi au iloko o ko'u hale e ai, a e inu, a e moe me ka'u wahine? Ma kou ola ana, me ke ola ana hoi o kou uhane, aole au e hana ia mea.
12 “Stay here one more day,” David said to Uriah, “and tomorrow I will send you back.” So Uriah stayed in Jerusalem that day and the next.
I aku la o Davida ia Uria, E noho iho hoi oe i keia la, a apopo e kuu aku ai au ia oe e hoi. A noho iho la o Uria ma Ierusalema ia la, a hiki i kekahi la ae.
13 Then David invited Uriah to eat and drink with him, and he got Uriah drunk. And in the evening Uriah went out to lie down on his cot with his master’s servants, but he did not go home.
Kahea aku la o Davida ia ia, a ai iho la ia a inu hoi imua ona; hoinu iho la o Davida ia ia a ona: a ahiahi ae la, hele aku la ia iwaho e moe ma kona wahi moe me na kauwa o kona haku, aole nae ia i hele i kona hale.
14 The next morning David wrote a letter to Joab and sent it with Uriah.
A kakahiaka ae, kakau iho la o Davida i ka palapala ia Ioaba, a hoouka aku la ia ma ka lima o Uria.
15 In the letter he wrote: “Put Uriah at the front of the fiercest battle; then withdraw from him, so that he may be struck down and killed.”
Kakau iho la ia iloko o ka palapala, i ka i ana'ku, E hoonoho aku oe ia Uria ma ke alo o ke kaua ikaika, a e hoi i hope oukou mai ona aku la, i pepehiia'i oia a make.
16 So as Joab besieged the city, he assigned Uriah to a place where he saw the strongest enemy soldiers.
A i ko Ioaba nana ana aku i ke kulanakauhale, hoonoho aku la oia ia Uria ma kahi ana i ike ai ilaila na kanaka ikaika.
17 And when the men of the city came out and fought against Joab, some of David’s servants fell, and Uriah the Hittite also died.
Hele mai la na kanaka o ua kulanakauhale la iwaho, a kaua mai la ia Ioaba ma: a hina iho la kekahi poe kanaka o na kauwa a Davida, a make iho la hoi o Uria ka Heta.
18 Joab sent to David a full account of the battle
Hoouna aku la o Ioaba, a hai aku la ia Davida i na mea a pau o ke kaua;
19 and instructed the messenger, “When you have finished giving the king all the details of the battle,
Kauoha aku la ia i ka elele, i aku la, A pau kau hai ana aku i na mea o ke kaua i ke alii;
20 if the king’s anger flares, he may ask you, ‘Why did you get so close to the city to fight? Did you not realize they would shoot from atop the wall?
Ina paha e huhu mai ke alii, a e i mai hoi ia oe, No ke aha la oukou i hele aku ai pela a kokoke i ke kulanakauhale i ke kaua ana o oukou? Aole anei oukou i ike, e pana mai lakou mai luna mai o ka pa?
21 Who was the one to strike Abimelech son of Jerubbesheth? Was it not a woman who dropped an upper millstone on him from the wall, so that he died in Thebez? Why did you get so close to the wall?’ If so, then you are to say, ‘Your servant Uriah the Hittite is dead as well.’”
Nawai i pepehi ia Abimeleka ke keiki a Ierubeseta? Aole anei he wahine i hoolei iho i ka apana pohaku wili palaoa maluna ona, i make ai oia ma Tebeza? No ke aha la oukou i hele aku ai a kokoke i ka pa? Alaila e i aku oe, Ua make no hoi kau kauwa o Uria o ka Heta.
22 So the messenger set out and reported to David all that Joab had sent him to say.
Hele aku la ka elele, hiki aku la a hai aku la ia Davida i na mea a pau a Ioaba i hoouna aku ai ia ia.
23 The messenger said to David, “The men overpowered us and came out against us in the field, but we drove them back to the entrance of the gate.
I aku la ka elele ia Davida, He oiaio ua lanakila mai kela poe kanaka maluna o makou, a hele mai la lakou iwaho io makou la ma ke kula, a hahai aku la makou ia lakou a hiki i ke komo ana ma ka puka.
24 Then the archers shot at your servants from the wall, and some of the king’s servants were killed. And your servant Uriah the Hittite is dead as well.”
A pana mai la ka poe pana mai luna mai o ka pa maluna iho o kau poe kauwa, a ua make kekahi poe kauwa a ke alii, a ua make hoi kau kauwa o Uria.
25 Then David told the messenger, “Say this to Joab: ‘Do not let this matter upset you, for the sword devours one as well as another. Strengthen your attack against the city and demolish it.’ Encourage him with these words.”
Alaila i aku la o Davida i ka elele, Penei kau e olelo aku ai ia Ioaba, Mai hoino oe ia mea ma kou manao; no ka mea, i ka ai ana mai a ka pahikaua e like me keia, pela no i na mea a pau: e hooikaika ae oe i kou kaua ana i ke kulanakauhale, a e hookahuli ia wahi; a nau no e hooikaika aku ia ia.
26 When Uriah’s wife heard that her husband was dead, she mourned for him.
A lohe ae la ka wahine a Uria, ua make o Uria kana kane, kanikau iho la ia i kana kane.
27 And when the time of mourning was over, David had her brought to his house, and she became his wife and bore him a son. But the thing that David had done was evil in the sight of the LORD.
A pau ae la ke kanikau ana, kii aku la o Davida, a lawe mai la ia ia i kona hale, a lilo ae la ia i wahine nana: a hanau mai la ia i keikikane nana: aka, he ino ka mea a Davida i hana'i imua o Iehova.
