Kings I 20
1 And David fled from Navath in Rama, and comes into the presence of Jonathan; and he said, What have I done, and what [is] my fault, and wherein have I sinned before your father, that he seeks my life?
Na ka rere a Rawiri i Naioto o Rama, a ka tae, ka korero ki a Honatana, I aha ahau? he aha toku he? he aha hoki toku hara i te aroaro o tou papa, i whai ai ia kia whakamatea ahau?
2 And Jonathan said to him, Far be it from you: you shall not die: behold, my father will not do any thing great or small without discovering it to me; and why should my father hide this matter from me? This thing is not [so].
Na ka mea tera ki a ia, Kahore rapea, e kore koe e mate; nana, e kore e meatia e toku papa tetahi mea, nui, iti ranei; ki te kahore e whakakitea mai e ia ki ahau: a he aha tenei mea e huna ai e toku papa i ahau? ehara tena.
3 And David answered Jonathan, and said, Your father knows surely that I have found grace in your sight, and he said, Let not Jonathan know this, lest he refuse his consent: but [as] the Lord lives and your soul lives, as I said, [the space] is filled up between me and death.
Na ka oati ano a Rawiri, ka mea, E tino mohio ana tou papa kua manakohia ahau e koe; koia ia i mea ia, Kei mohiotia tenei e Honatana, kei pouri ia: otiia e ora ana a Ihowa, e ora ana hoki tou wairua, he hikoinga kotahi noa ko te mate moku.
4 And Jonathan said to David, What does your soul desire, and what shall I do for you.
Katahi a Honatana ka mea ki a Rawiri, He aha nei te mea e hiahiatia ana e tou wairua, ka meatia tonutia e ahau mau.
5 And David said to Jonathan, Behold, to-morrow [is] the new moon, and I shall not on any account sit down to eat, but you shall let me go, and I will hide in the plain till the evening.
Na ka mea a Rawiri ki a Honatana, Nana, apopo ka kowhiti te marama, a ko te tikanga kia noho tahi ai ahau me te kingi ki te kai; na tukua ahau kia haere, kia piri ai ahau ki te parae a te ahiahi ra ano o te toru o nga ra.
6 And if your father do in anyway enquire for me, then shall you say, David earnestly asked leave of me to run to Bethleem his city, for [there is] there, a yearly sacrifice for all the family.
Ki te ui ia tou papa mo toku ngaro, ko reira koe ka ki atu, I tono kaha a Rawiri ki ahau kia tukua ia kia rere ki tona pa, ki Peterehema: kei reira hoki te patunga tapu o te tau ma te hapu katoa.
7 If he shall say thus, Well, — [all is] safe for your servant: but if he shall answer harshly to you, know that evil is determined by him.
Ki te penei mai tana ki, E pai ana; ka mau te rongo ki tau pononga: e nui rawa ia tona riri, katahi koe ka mohio kua takoto te kino i a ia.
8 And you shall deal mercifully with your servant; for you have brought your servant into a covenant of the Lord with yourself: and if there is iniquity in your servant, kill me yourself; but why do you thus bring me to your father?
Na reira kia pai tau mahi ki tau pononga, nau nei hoki i mea tau pononga kia uru taua ki ta Ihowa kawenata. Otiia ki te mea he kino toku, mau ahau e whakamate; kia kawea atu hoki ahau e koe ki tou papa hei aha?
9 And Jonathan said, That be far from you: for if I surely know that evil is determined by my father to come upon you, although it should not be against your cities, I will tell you.
Na ka mea a Honatana, Kaua tena e meatia ki a koe: engari ki te mohio kau ahau kua takoto i toku papa kia whakapakia he kino ki a koe, e kore ianei e korerotia e ahau ki a koe?
10 And David said to Jonathan, Who can tell me if your father should answer roughly?
Katahi a Rawiri ka mea ki a Honatana, Ma wai e korero ki ahau, ki te pakeke te kupu e whakahokia e tou papa ki a koe?
11 And Jonathan said to David, Go, and abide in the field. And they went out both into the field.
Ano ra ko Honatana ki a Rawiri, Haere mai, taua ka haere ki te parae. Na haere ana raua tokorua ki te parae.
12 And Jonathan said to David, the Lord God of Israel knows that I will sound my father as I have an opportunity, three several times, and, behold, [if good] should be determined concerning David, and I do not send to you to the field,
Na ka mea a Honatana ki a Rawiri, Ko Ihowa, ko te Atua o Iharaira, hei kaititiro; maku e rapu te whakaaro o toku papa i tenei wa pea apopo, i te toru ranei o nga ra: ki te mea he pai mo Rawiri, e kore ianei ahau e tuku tonu atu, e whakaatu ki a koe?
13 God do so to Jonathan and more also: as I shall [also] report the evil to you, and make it known to you, and I will let you go; and you shall depart in peace, and the Lord shall be with you, as he was with my father.
Kia meatia tenei e Ihowa ki a Honatana, me etahi atu mea: pena he kino ta toku papa e pai ai mou, a ka kore ahau e whakaatu ki a koe, ka tuku i a koe kia haere i runga i te rangimarie: a kia noho a Ihowa ki a koe kia pera me ia i noho ki toku pa pa.
14 And if indeed I continue to live, then shall you deal mercifully with me; and if I indeed die,
A kaua ano e waiho i toku oranga anake tau whakaputa i to Ihowa aroha ki ahau, kia kaua ahau e mate;
15 you shall not withdraw your mercy from my house for ever: and if you do not, when the Lord cuts off the enemies of David each from the face of the earth,
Kauaka ano hoki e hautopea atu tou aroha ki toku whare a ake ake: kauaka rawa, ina hautopea atu e Ihowa nga hoariri katoa o Rawiri i te mata o te whenua.
16 [should it happen] that the name of Jonathan be discovered by the house of David, then let the Lord seek out the enemies of David.
Heoi ka whakarite kawenata a Honatana ki te whare o Rawiri, ka mea, Kia rapu utu ano a Ihowa i te ringa o nga hoariri o Rawiri.
17 And Jonathan swore yet again to David, because he loved the soul of him that loved him.
A i mea a Honatana kia oati ano a Rawiri; he aroha hoki nona ki a ia: i aroha hoki ia ki a ia, me te mea ko te aroha ki tona wairua ake.
18 And Jonathan said, To-morrow [is] the new moon, and you will be enquired for, because your seat will be observed as vacant.
Katahi a Honatana ka mea ki a ia, Apopo te kowhiti ai te marama; a ka kitea tou ngaromanga, ka takoto kau hoki tou nohoanga.
19 And you shall stay three days, and watch an opportunity, and shall come to your place where you may hide yourself in the day of your business, and you shall wait by that stone Ezel.
A ka toru ou ra e noho ana, kia hohoro tou haere ki raro, a ka tae ki te wahi i piri ai koe i te ra i korerotia ai, a ka noho ki te taha o Etere kohatu.
20 And I will shoot three arrows, aiming them at a mark.
A maku e kopere etahi pere kia toru ki tona taha, ano e kopere ana ki tetahi koperenga pere.
21 And behold, I [will] send a lad, saying, Go find me the arrow.
Na ka tono ahau i te tamaiti, Tikina, rapua nga pere. Ki te mea atu ahau ki te tamaiti, Nei na nga pere, kei tenei taha ou, tikina mai; katahi koe ka haere mai; e mau ana hoki te rongo ki a koe, kahore hoki he rawa, e ora ana a Ihowa.
22 If I should expressly say to the lad, The arrow [is] here, and on this side of you, take it; [then] come, for it is well with you, and there is no reason [for fear, as] the Lord lives: [but] if I should say thus to the young man, The arrow [is] on that side of you, and beyond; go, for the Lord has sent you away.
Ki te penei ia taku ki atu ki te tamaiti, Na, ko nga pere, kei tua atu i a koe: katahi koe ka haere atu: he mea tono hoki koe na Ihowa.
23 And as for the word which you and I have spoken, behold, the Lord [is] witness between me and you for ever.
Na, ko tenei mea i korerotia nei e taua, nana, kei waenganui i a taua a Ihowa a ake ake.
24 So David hides himself in the field, and the [new] month arrives, and the king comes to the table to eat.
Heoi piri ana a Rawiri ki te parae: a, i te kowhititanga o te marama ka noho te kingi ki te kai.
25 And he sat upon his seat as in former times, even on his seat by the wall, and he went before Jonathan; and Abenner sat on one side of Saul, and the place of David was empty.
A i te noho te kingi ki tona nohoanga o mua iho, ki te nohoanga i te pakitara: i whakatika ano hoki a Honatana, a ka noho a Apenere ki te taha o Haora; na e takoto kau ana to Rawiri wahi.
26 And Saul said nothing on that day, for he said, It seems to have fallen out that he is not clean, because he has not purified himself.
Ahakoa ra kihai i puaki tetahi kupu a Haora i taua ra: i mea hoki ia, Kua pa tetahi mea ki a ia, kahore ano kia kore noa tona poke; ina kahore ano kia kore noa tona poke.
27 And it came to pass on the morrow, on the second day of the month, that the place of David was empty; and Saul said to Jonathan his son, Why has not the son of Jessae attended both yesterday and today at the table?
Na i te aonga ake, ara i te rua o nga ra o te marama, e takoto kau ana ano to Rawiri wahi. Na ka mea a Haora ki tana tama, ki a Honatana, Na te aha te tama a Hehe te haere mai ai ki te kai inanahi, inaianei?
28 And Jonathan answered Saul, and said to him, David asked leave of me to go as far as Bethleem his city;
Na ka utua e Honatana ki a Haora, I tono kaha a Rawiri ki ahau kia tukua ia kia haere ki Peterehema:
29 and he said, Let me go, I pray you, for we have a family sacrifice in the city, and my brethren have sent for me; and now, if I have found grace in your eyes, I will even go over and see my brethren: therefore he is not present at the table of the king.
I mea mai hoki ia, Tukua ahau kia haere, he patunga tapu hoki ta to matou hapu i taua pa; na toku tuakana pu ano hoki ahau i poroaki mai: na ki te mea kua manakohia ahau e koe, tukua ahau kia rere atu kia kite i oku tuakana. Koia ia te haere mai ai ki te tepu a te kingi.
30 And Saul was exceedingly angry with Jonathan, and said to him, You son of traitorous damsels! for do I not know that you are an accomplice with the son of Jessae to your same, and to the shame of your mother's nakedness?
Ko te tino muranga o te riri o Haora ki a Honatana, ka mea ki a ia, E te tama a te wahine parori ke, tutu! Kahore ranei ahau i te mohio kua tango koe i te tama a Hehe, hei mea whakama ki a koe tonu, hei mea whakama hoki ki te hahaketanga o tou w haea?
31 For so long as the son of Jessae lives upon the earth, your kingdom shall not be established: now then send and take the young man, for he shall surely die.
I nga ra katoa e ora ai te tama a Hehe ki runga ki te whenua, e kore koe e tu, me tou rangatiratanga. Na, tonoa kia tikina ia ki ahau, kua tino takoto hoki te mate mona.
32 And Jonathan answered Saul, Why is he to die? What has he done?
Na ka whakahoki a Honatana ki tona papa, ka mea ki a ia, Kia whakamatea ia mo te aha? i aha ia?
33 And Saul lifted up his spear against Jonathan to kill him: so Jonathan knew that this evil was determined on by his father to kill David.
Na ko te werohanga a Haora i te tao ki a ia, hei patu mona. Katahi a Honatana ka mohio kua takoto i tona papa te mate mo Rawiri.
34 And Jonathan sprang up from the table in great anger, and did not eat bread on the second [day] of the month, for he grieved bitterly for David, because his father determined [on mischief] against him.
Heoi ka whakatika atu a Honatana i te tepu, mura tonu hoki tona riri, kihai ano i kai i te rua o nga ra o te marama: i pouri hoki ia mo Rawiri, mona i meinga e tona papa kia whakama.
35 And morning came, and Jonathan went out to the field, as he appointed [to do] for a signal to David, and a little boy [was] with him.
Na i te ata ka haere a Honatana ki te parae i te wa i whakaritea ki a Rawiri, raua ko tetahi tamaiti nohinohi.
36 And he said to the boy, Run, find me the arrows which I shoot: and the boy ran, and [Jonathan] shot an arrow, and sent it beyond [him].
Na ka mea ia ki taua tamaiti, Rere atu ki te rapu i nga pere e koperea atu ana e ahau. Ko te rerenga atu o te tamaiti, na koperea atu ana e ia he pere ki ko noa atu i a ia.
37 And the boy came to the place where the arrow was which Jonathan shot; and Jonathan cried out after the lad, and said, The arrow [is] on that side of you and beyond you.
A, no te taenga atu o te tamaiti ki te wahi i te pere i koperea nei e Honatana, ka karanga a Honatana i muri i te tamaiti, ka mea, Kahore iana te pere i ko atu i a koe na?
38 And Jonathan cried out after his boy, saying, Make all speed, and stay not. And Jonathan's boy gathered up the arrows, and brought the arrows to his master.
Na ka karanga ano a Honatana i muri i taua tamaiti, Kia kakama, kia hohoro, kaua e tu. Na kohikohia ana nga pere e te tamaiti a Honatana, a haere mai ana ki tona rangatira.
39 And the boy knew nothing, only Jonathan and David [knew].
Otiia kihai tetahi mea i mohiotia e taua tamaiti; engari a Honatana raua ko Rawiri, i mohio raua ki tona tikanga.
40 And Jonathan gave his weapons to his boy, and said to his boy, Go, enter into the city.
Na ka hoatu e Honatana ana patu ki tana tamaiti, ka mea ki a ia, Haere, kawea atu ki te pa.
41 And when the lad went in, then David arose from the south, and fell upon his face, and did obeisance to him three times, and they kissed each other, and wept for each other, for a great while.
A, no te haerenga o taua tamaiti, na ka whakatika mai a Rawiri i te taha ki te tonga, a ka tapapa ki te whenua, e toru hoki ona pikonga iho. Na ka kihi raua i a raua, ka tangi hoki tetahi ki tetahi, a rahi noa ake ta Rawiri.
42 And Jonathan said to David, Go in peace, and as we have both sworn in the name of the Lord, saying, The Lord shall be witness between me and you, and between my seed and your seed for ever—[even so let it be]. And David arose and departed, and Jonathan went into the city.
Na ka mea a Honatana ki a Rawiri, Haere i runga i te rangimarie. Kua oati nei hoki taua i runga i te ingoa o Ihowa, kua mea taua, Hei waenganui a Ihowa i a taua hei waenganui hoki i oku uri, i ou uri mo ake tonu atu. Na whakatika ana ia, a haere ana; ko Honatana hoki i haere ki te pa.
