2 Samuel 4
1 Now when Ish-bosheth son of Saul heard that Abner had died in Hebron, he lost courage, and all Israel was dismayed.
A LOHE ae la ke keiki a Saula, ua make o Abenera ma Heberona, palupalu iho la kona mau lima, a pihoihoi ka Iseraela a pau.
2 Saul’s son had two men who were leaders of raiding parties. One was named Baanah and the other Rechab; they were sons of Rimmon the Beerothite of the tribe of Benjamin—Beeroth is considered part of Benjamin,
Aia na kanaka elua no ke keiki a Saula, he mau lunakoa; o Baana ka inoa o kekahi, a o Rekaba ka inoa o kekahi; na keiki laua a Rimona no Beerota no na mamo a Beniamina; (no ka mea, ua helu pu ia o Beerota me ka Beniamina;
3 because the Beerothites fled to Gittaim and have lived there as foreigners to this day.
Holo aku la na kanaka o Beerota i Gitaima, a ua noho malihini lakou ilaila, a hiki i neia manawa.)
4 And Jonathan son of Saul had a son who was lame in his feet. He was five years old when the report about Saul and Jonathan came from Jezreel. His nurse picked him up and fled, but as she was hurrying to escape, he fell and became lame. His name was Mephibosheth.
A o Ionatana ke keiki a Saula, nana no kekahi keikikane, ua oopa ma kona mau wawae. Elima ona mau makahiki i ka wa i hiki aku ai ka olelo no Saula a no Ionatana mai Iezereela aku, a kaikai aku la kona kahu ia ia, a holo aku la: a i kona wikiwiki ana e holo aku, haule iho la kela a oopa iho la. O Mepiboseta kona inoa.
5 Now Rechab and Baanah, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, set out and arrived at the house of Ish-bosheth in the heat of the day, while the king was taking his midday nap.
Hele aku la o Rekaba a me Baana na keiki a Rimona no Beerota, a hoi mai la laua i ka hale o Iseboseta i ka manawa i wela ai ka la, a e moe ana ia ma ka moe i ke awakea.
6 They entered the interior of the house as if to get some wheat, and they stabbed him in the stomach. Then Rechab and his brother Baanah slipped away.
Hele aku la laua ilaila iwaena konu o ka hale, e like me ke kii i ka hua palaoa; a hou aku la laua ia ia malalo iho o ka lima o ka iwiaoao: a pakele aku la o Rekaba a me Baana kona hoahanau.
7 They had entered the house while Ish-bosheth was lying on his bed, and having stabbed and killed him, they beheaded him, took his head, and traveled all night by way of the Arabah.
No ka mea, i ko laua hele ana aku iloko o ka hale, e moe ana ia maluna o kona moe iloko o kona keena moe, hou aku la laua ia ia, a make ia; a oki iho la laua i kona poo, a holoholo aku la ma ka papu a ao ka po.
8 They brought the head of Ish-bosheth to David at Hebron and said to the king, “Here is the head of Ish-bosheth son of Saul, your enemy who sought your life. Today the LORD has granted vengeance to my lord the king against Saul and his offspring.”
Lawe mai la laua i ke poo o Iseboseta io Davida la i Heberona, i mai la i ke alii, Eia ke poo o Iseboseta ke keiki a Saula, o kou enemi, nana i imi mai i kou ola. I keia la, ua hoopai mai o Iehova maluna o Saula a me kana hua, no kuu haku no ke alii.
9 But David answered Rechab and his brother Baanah, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, “As surely as the LORD lives, who has redeemed my life from all distress,
Olelo aku la Davida ia Rekaba a me Baana kona hoahanau, na keiki a Rimona no Beerota, i aku la ia laua, Ma ko Iehova ola ana, nana i hoopakele i kuu oia i ka popilikia a pau,
10 when someone told me, ‘Look, Saul is dead,’ and thought he was a bearer of good news, I seized him and put him to death at Ziklag. That was his reward for his news!
A hai mai la kekahi ia'u, i ka i ana mai, Aia ua make o Saula, e manao ana ia he olelo maikai kana ia'u, lalau aku la au ia ia, a pepehi iho la ia ia ma Zikelaga: oia iho la ka uku a'u i haawi aku ai ia ia no kana olelo ana:
11 How much more, when wicked men kill a righteous man in his own house and on his own bed, shall I not now require his blood from your hands and remove you from the earth!”
Oia aku no, a i pepehi iho na kanaka hewa i ke kanaka pono maloko o kona hale maluna o Kona moe iho; aole anei au e hoopai koke aku i kona koko ma ko olua mau lima, a e kaili aku ia olua mai ka honua aku?
12 So David commanded his young men, and they killed Rechab and Baanah. They cut off their hands and feet and hung their bodies by the pool in Hebron, but they took the head of Ish-bosheth and buried it in Abner’s tomb in Hebron.
Kena aku la Davida i na kanaka opiopio ona, a pepehi aku la lakou ia laua, a oki iho la i ko laua mau lima a me na wawae, a kau aku la ia laua maluna ma ka punawai o Heberona. A lawe ae la lakou i ke poo o Iseboseta, a kanu iho la iloko o ka hale kupapau o Abenera ma Heberona.
