< Kings I 18 >

1 [And it came to pass when he had finished speaking to Saul, that the soul of Jonathan was knit to the soul of David and David loved him ] [as his own soul. ]
A PAU ae la kana kamailio pu ana me Saula, ua hui pu ia ka naau o Ionatana me ka naau o Davida, aloha aku la o Ionatana ia ia e like me kona uhane iho.
2 [And Saul took him in that day, and did not suffer him to return to his father's house. ]
Lawe aku la o Saula ia ia ia la, aole ia i ae aku ia ia e hoi hou i ka hale o kona makuakane.
3 [And Jonathan and David made a covenant because he loved him as his own soul. ]
A hoopaa iho la o Ionatana a me Davida i kuikahi, no ka mea, aloha aku la oia ia ia e like me kona uhane iho.
4 [And Jonathan stripped himself of his ] [upper garment, and gave it to David, and his mantle and all he had upon him, even to his sword and to his bow, and to his girdle. ]
Wehe ae la o Ionatana i kona kapa aahu maluna ona, a haawi aku la ia Davida, a me kona lole komo, a me kana pahikaua, a i kana kakaka, a me kona kaei.
5 [And David went out withersoever Saul sent him, and ] [acted wisely, and Saul set him over the men of war, and he was pleasing in the eyes of all the people, and also in the eyes of the servants of Saul. ]
A hele aku la o Davida i na wahi a pau a Saula i hoouna aku ai ia ia, ua hana naauao ia: a hoonoho aku la o Saula ia ia maluna o na kanaka kaua; a ua maikai oia i na maka o na kanaka a pau, a i na maka hoi o ka poe kauwa a Saula.
6 And there came out women in dances to meet David out of all the cities of Israel, with timbrels, and with rejoicing, and with cymbals.
A i ko lakou hele ana mai, i ka wa a Davida i hoi mai ai i ka pepehi ana i ke kanaka Pilisetia, hele mai la na wahine mai na kulanakauhale a pau o ka Iseraela mai, e mele ana, a e haa ana, e halawai me Saula ke alii, me na kuolokani, a me ka olioli, a me na mea kani.
7 And the women began [the strain], and said, Saul has struck his thousands, and David his ten thousands.
Olelo ae la na wahine e haa ana, i aku la, O na tausani ka Saula i pepehi ai, a he umi tausani ka Davida.
8 And it seemed evil in the eyes of Saul concerning this matter, and he said, To David they have given ten thousands, and to me they have given thousands. [And what more can he have but the kingdom? ]
Huhu nui iho la o Saula, a ua hewa ia olelo i kona manao; i iho la, Ua haawi lakou na Davida he umi tausani, a ua haawi lakou na'u he mau tausani: o ka lilo o ke aupuni nona ka mea i koe.
9 [And Saul eyed David from that day and onward. ]
Awihi ae la ko Saula maka ia Davida mai ia manawa mai.
10 [And it came to pass on the morrow that an evil spirit from God fell upon Saul, and he prophesied in the midst of his house. And David was playing on the harp with his hand, according to his daily custom. And Saul’s spear was in his hand. ]
Ia la iho, hiki mai ka uhane ino maluna o Saula na ke Akua mai, a wanana aku la ia iloko o ka hale; a hookani iho la o Davida me kona lima, e like me na manawa mamua: a he ihe ma ka lima o Saula.
11 [And Saul took his spear and said, I will strike David even to the wall. But David escaped twice from his presence. ]
Hou aku la o Saula i ka ihe, i iho la, E pepehi aku au ia Davida a i ka paia. Elua ko Davida alo ana mai ona aku la.
12 And Saul was alarmed on account of David.
Makau ae la o Saula ia Davida, no ka mea, me ia no o Iehova, a ua haalele aku la ia Saula.
13 And he removed him from him, and made him a captain of a thousand for himself; and he went out and came in before the people.
No ia mea, hoonoho aku la o Saula ia ia mai ona aku la, a hoolilo ia ia i lunatausani nona; a hele aku la ia a hoi mai imua o na kanaka.
14 And David was prudent in all his ways, and the Lord was with him.
Ua naauao o Davida ma kona aoao a pau; a me ia no o Iehova.
15 And Saul saw that he was very wise, and he was afraid of him.
A ike aku la o Saula i kona naauao loa, makau no oia ia ia.
16 And all Israel and Juda loved David, because he came in and went out before the people.
Aka, o ka Iseraela a pau a me ka Iuda, aloha lakou ia Davida, no ka mea, hele aku no ia a hoi mai imua o lakou.
17 [And Saul said to David, Behold my elder daughter Merob, I will give her to you to Wife, only be you to me a mighty man and fight the wars of the Lord. And Saul said, Let not my hand be upon him, but the hand of the Philistines shall be upon him. ]
Olelo aku la o Saula ia Davida, Aia hoi, o ka'u kaikamahine mua, o Meraba, oia ka'u e haawi aku i wahine nau, ke ikaika oe no'u, a ke kaua aku i na kaua o Iehova: i iho la o Saula, Aole maluna ona ko'u lima iho, aka, maluna ona ka lima o ko Pilisetia.
18 [And David said to Saul, Who am I, and What is the life of my father’s family in Israel, that I should be the king’s son—in-law? ]
I aku la o Davida ia Saula, Owai la owau? a heaha hoi ko'u ola, a me ko ka hale o ko'u makuakane iwaena o ka Iseraela, i lilo ai au i hunonakane na ke alii.
19 [But it came to pass at the time when Merob Saul’s daughter should have been given to David, that she was given to Israel the Mothulathite to wife. ]
A i ka manawa e pono ai ke haawiia'ku ai o Meraba, ke kaikamahine a Saula, na Davida, ua haawiia oia na Aderiela, no Mehola, i wahine nana.
20 And Melchol the daughter of Saul loved David; and it was told Saul, and the thing was pleasing in his eyes.
A o Mikala, ke kaikamahine a Saula, aloha no oia ia Davida: a hai aku la lakou ia Saula, a ua pono ia mea i kona maka.
21 And Saul said, I will give her to him, and she shall be a stumbling block to him. Now the hand of the Philistines was against Saul.
I aku la o Saula, E haawi aku au ia ia nana, i lilo ai ia i mea hihia nona, a i ku e mai ai ka lima o ko Pilisetia ia ia. I aku la o Saula ia Davida, E lilo mai oe i keia la i hunonakane na'u ma kekahi o laua.
22 And Saul charged his servants, saying, Speak you privately to David, saying, Behold, the king delights in you, and all his servants love you, and do you becomes the king's son-in-law.
Kauoha aku la o Saula i kana poe kauwa, E kamailio malu oukou me Davida, e i aku, Aia hoi, ua oluolu ke alii ia oe, a ua aloha hoi kana poe kauwa a pau ia oe; ano hoi, e hooliloia oe i hunonakane na ke alii.
23 And the servants of Saul spoke these words in the ears of David; and David said, [Is it] a light thing in your eyes to become son-in-law to the king? Whereas I [am] an humble man, an not honourable?
Hai aku la na kauwa a Saula i keia mau olelo ma ka pepeiao o Davida. I mai la o Davida, He mea uuku anei i ko oukou maka, ke lilo i hunonakane na ke alii, he kanaka ilihune wau, a he mea i manao ole ia?
24 And the servants of Saul reported to him according to these words, which David spoke.
Hai aku la na kauwa a Saula ia ia, i aku la, Me keia mau olelo i olelo mai ai o Davida.
25 And Saul said, Thus shall you speak to David, The king wants no gift but a hundred foreskins of the Philistines, to avenge himself on the kings enemies. Now Saul thought to cast him into the hands of the Philistines.
I aku la o Saula, Peneia oukou e olelo aku ai ia Davida, Aole makemake ke alii i ka uku, aka, i hookahi haneri omaka o na Pilisetia, i mea e hoopai aku ai i na enemi o ke alii. Manao iho la o Saula e haule ana o Davida ma ka lima o na Pilisetia.
26 And the servants of Saul report these words to David, and David was well pleased to become the son-in-law to the king.
A hai aku la na kauwa ana i keia mau olelo ia Davida, ua pono ia mea i na maka o Davida i ka lilo i hunonakane na ke alii; aole hoi i pau na la.
27 And David arose, and went, he and his men, and struck amongst the Philistines a hundred men: and he brought their foreskins, and he becomes the king's son-in-law, and [Saul] gives him Melchol his daughter to wife.
Ku ae la o Davida, a hele aku la, oia me kona poe kanaka, a pepehi aku la i elua haneri kanaka o na Pilisetia; a lawe mai o Davida i ko lakou omaka, a haawi lakou ia mau mea a pau i ke alii, i mea e lilo ai oia i hunonakane na ke alii: a haawi aku la o Saula ia Mikala, i kana kaikamahine, i wahine nana.
28 And Saul saw that the Lord [was] with David, and [that] all Israel loved him.
Nana aku la o Saula, a ike hoi, aia no o Iehova me Davida, a o Mikala ke kaikamahine a Saula, ua aloha aku oia ia ia.
29 And he was yet more afraid of David.
A nui loa ae la ka makau o Saula ia Davida, a lilo o Saula i ko Davida enemi i na la a pau.
30 [And the chief of the Philistines went forth; and it came to pass that from the suficiency of their expedition David acted Wisely above all the servants of Saul; and his name was honoured exceedingly. ]
A hele aku la na'lii o na Pilisetia: a mai ka manawa o ko lakou hele ana'ku, ua oi aku ka naauao o Davida i ko na kauwa a pau a Saula; no ia mea, ua manao nui ia kona inoa.
