1 Samuel 6
1 Now the ark of the Lord was in the country of the Philistines for seven months.
I NA malama ehiku i noho ai ka pahu o Iehova ma ka aina o ko Pilisetia.
2 And the Philistines sent for the priests and those who were wise in secret arts, and said to them, What are we to do with the ark of the Lord? How are we to send it away to its place?
Kahea aku la ko Pilisetia i na kahuna, a me ka poe kilokilo, i aku la, Heaha ka makou e hana aku ai i ka pahu o Iehova? E hoike mai ia makou, me ke aha la makou e lawe aku ai ia mea ma kona wahi?
3 And they said, If you send away the ark of the God of Israel, do not send it without an offering, but send him a sin-offering with it: then you will have peace again, and it will be clear to you why the weight of his hand has not been lifted from you.
I mai la lakou, Ina e lawe aku oukou i ka pahu o ke Akua o ka Iseraela, mai lawe nele aku; aka, e hoihoi aku me ka mohaihala nona: alaila e hoolaia oukou, a e hoikeia hoi ia oukou ka mea i lawe ole ia aku ai kona lima mai o oukou aku.
4 Then they said, What sin-offering are we to send to him? And they said, Five gold images of the growths caused by your disease and five gold mice, one for every lord of the Philistines: for the same disease came on you and on your lords.
Ninau aku la lakou, Heaha ka mohaihala a makou e hoihoi aku ai nona? I mai la lakou, Elima puupuu koko gula, elima iole gula, ma ka helu ana o na haku o ko Pilisetia: no ka mea, hookahi no mai maluna o lakou a pau, a maluna hoi o ko oukou mau haku.
5 So make images of the growths caused by your disease and of the mice which are damaging your land; and give glory to the God of Israel: it may be that the weight of his hand will be lifted from you and from your gods and from your land.
No ia mea, e hana oukou i na kii no ko oukou puupuu koko, a me na kii no ko oukou iole, nana i hana ino ka aina; a e hoonani aku oukou i ke Akua o ka Iseraela: malia paha e hoomama mai ia i kona lima mai luna ae o oukou, a me ko oukou mau akua, a me ko oukou aina.
6 Why do you make your hearts hard, like the hearts of Pharaoh and the Egyptians? When he had made sport of them, did they not let the people go, and they went away?
No ke aha la oukou, e hoopaakiki nei i ko oukou naau, e like me ko Aigupita, a me Parao i hoopaakiki ai i ko lakou naau? Ia ia i hana mana ai iwaena o lakou, aole anei ia i kuu aku ia lakou, a hele lakou?
7 So now, take and make ready a new cart, and two cows which have never come under the yoke, and have the cows yoked to the cart, and take their young ones away from them:
No ia mea, e hana oukou i kaa hou, a lawe i na bipiwahine waiu elua, aole i kau ka auamo maluna o laua, a e nakii i na bipi ma ke kaa, a e lawe i ka laua mau keiki mai o laua aku la:
8 And put the ark of the Lord on the cart, and the gold images which you are sending as a sin-offering in a chest by its side; and send it away so that it may go.
A e lawe aku oukou i ka pahu o Iehova, a kau maluna o ke kaa, a e hahao i na mea gula a oukou e hoihoi aku i mohaihala nona maloko o kahi pahu ma ka aoao; a e hoouna aku oukou ia mea, i hele aku ia.
9 If it goes by the land of Israel to Beth-shemesh, then this great evil is his work; but if not, then we may be certain that the evil was not his doing, but was the working of chance.
A e nana oukou, ina paha e pii aku ia ma ke ala o kona mokuna, i Betesemesa, alaila, ua hana mai ia i keia ino nui no kakou: aka, i ole. alaila e ike kakou, aole kona lima i hahau mai ia kakou; ua hiki wale mai ia mea ia kakou.
10 And the men did so; they took two cows, yoking them to the cart and shutting up their young ones in their living-place:
A hana aku la na kanaka pela; a lawe aku la i na bipiwahine waiu elua, a nakii ia laua ma ke kaa, a hoopaa lakou i ka laua mau keiki maloko o ka hale.
11 And they put the ark of the Lord on the cart and the chest with the gold images.
Kau aku la lakou i ka pahu o Iehova maluna o ke kaa, a i kekahi pahu me na iole gula, a me na kii o ko lakou puupuu koko.
12 And the cows took the straight way, by the road to Beth-shemesh; they went by the highway, not turning to the right or to the left, and the sound of their voices was clear on the road; and the lords of the Philistines went after them as far as the edge of Beth-shemesh.
A hele pololei aku la na bipi ma ke ala e hiki ai i Betesemesa, ma ke ala loa ka hele ana, a hele laua me ka uwo ana, aole laua i huli ae ma ka akau, aole hoi ma ka hema; a hele na haku o ko Pilisetia mahope o laua, a hiki i ka mokuna o Betesemesa.
13 And the people of Beth-shemesh were cutting their grain in the valley, and lifting up their eyes they saw the ark and were full of joy when they saw it.
A e oki ana ko Betesemesa i ka lakou palaoa ma ke awawa: alawa ae la ko lakou maka iluna, a ike aku la i ka pahu, a olioli lakou i ka ike ana aku.
14 And the cart came into the field of Joshua the Beth-shemite, and came to a stop there by a great stone: and cutting up the wood of the cart they made a burned offering of the cows to the Lord.
A hele aku la ke kaa maloko o ka mahinaai o Iosua no Betesemesa, a ku malaila; a malaila ka pohaku nui; a wawahi lakou i ka laau o ke kaa, a kaumaha aku la lakou i na bipi i mohaikuni ia Iehova.
15 Then the Levites took down the ark of the Lord and the chest in which were the gold images, and put them on the great stone: and the men of Beth-shemesh made burned offerings and gave worship that day before the Lord.
Lawe mai la na Levi i ka pahu o Iehova, a me kekahi pahu i waiho pu ai me ia me na mea gula maloko, a kau aku la ia mea maluna o ka pohaku nui; a kaumaha aku na kanaka o Betesemesa i na mohaikuni, a ia la, kaumaha aku la no hoi lakou i na mohai ia Iehova.
16 And the five lords of the Philistines, having seen it, went back to Ekron the same day.
A ike aku la na haku elima o ko Pilisetia ia mea, hoi aku la lakou ma Ekerona ia la.
17 Now these are the gold images which the Philistines sent as a sin-offering to the Lord; one for Ashdod, one for Gaza, one for Ashkelon, one for Gath, one for Ekron;
Eia na puupuu koko gula a ko Pilisetia i hoihoi aku ai i mohaihala ia Iehova: no Asedoda kekahi, no Gaza kekahi, no Asekelona kekahi, no Gata kekahi, no Ekerona kekahi;
18 And the gold mice, one for every town of the Philistines, the property of the five lords, walled towns as well as country places: and the great stone where they put the ark of the Lord is still in the field of Joshua the Beth-shemite to this day.
A me na iole gula e like me ka helu ana o na kulanakauhale no na haku elima o ko Pilisetia, na kulanakauhale pa pohaku, a me na kauhale papu a hiki i ua pohaku nui o Abela, kahi a lakou i kau ai i ka pahu o Iehova; a ilaila ua pohaku la ma ka mahinaai o Iosua no Betesemesa, a hiki i keia la.
19 But the Lord sent destruction on seventy men of the people of Beth-shemesh for looking into the ark of the Lord; and great was the sorrow of the people for the destruction which the Lord had sent on them.
A luku mai ia i na kanaka o Betesemesa, no ka mea, ua nana lakou iloko o ka pahu o Iehova, luku mai ia i na kanaka, he kanalima no tausani, a he kanahiku kanaka ia. Auwe na kanaka, no ka Iehova pepehi ana mai i na kanaka me ka luku nui.
20 And the men of Beth-shemesh said, Who is able to keep his place before the Lord, this holy God? and to whom may he go from us?
I ae la na kanaka o Betesemesa, Owai la ka mea hiki ke ku imua o Iehova keia Akua Hemolele? A ia wai la oia e hele aku mai o kakou aku?
21 And they sent men to the people living in Kiriath-jearim, saying, The Philistines have sent back the ark of the Lord; come and take it up to your country.
Hoouna aku la lakou i na elele i na kanaka o Kiriatiarima, i aku la, Ua hoihoi mai ko Pilisetia i ka pahu o Iehova; e iho mai oukou e lawe aku ia io oukou la.
