< 1 Samuel 14 >
1 Now it came to pass one day that Jonathan the son of Saul said to the young man that bore his armour, Come and let us go over to the Philistines' garrison which is on the other side. But he did not tell his father.
Na i tetahi o aua ra ka mea a Honatana, tama a Haora, ki te taitama e mau ana i ana patu, Haere mai, taua ka whiti atu ki nga hoia pupuri a nga Pirihitini i tawahi ra. Otiia kihai i korerotia e ia ki tona papa.
2 And Saul abode at the extreme end of Gibeah under the pomegranate-tree which [was] in Migron; and the people that were with him were about six hundred men.
A i tera pito o Kipea a Haora e noho ana i raro i tetahi pamekaranete i Mikirono: tata tonu ana tangata ki te ono nga rau;
3 (And Ahijah the son of Ahitub, Ichabod's brother, the son of Phinehas, the son of Eli, Jehovah's priest in Shiloh, wore the ephod.) And the people did not know that Jonathan was gone.
Me Ahia ano hoki, tama a Ahitupu, tuakana o Ikaporo, tama a Pinehaha, tama a Eri tohunga a Ihowa i Hiro, ko te kaikakahu ia o te epora. Na kihai te iwi i mohio kua riro a Honatana.
4 Now between the passes by which Jonathan sought to go over to the Philistines' garrison there was a sharp rock on the one side and a sharp rock on the other side; and the name of the one [was] Bozez, and the name of the other Seneh.
Na, i waenga o nga whitinga i whai ai a Honatana kia whiti atu ki nga hoia pupuri a nga Pirihitini, tera tetahi pari kohatu i tetahi taha, he pari kohatu hoki i tetahi taha: ko te ingoa o tetahi ko Potete, ko te ingoa o tetahi ko Henehe.
5 The one crag [formed] a pillar on the north opposite to Michmash, and the other on the south opposite to Geba.
I te raki tetahi pari e tu ana, i te ritenga atu o Mikimaha; i te tonga tetahi, i te ritenga atu o Kipea.
6 And Jonathan said to the young man that bore his armour, Come, and let us go over to the garrison of these uncircumcised: perhaps Jehovah will work for us; for there is no restraint to Jehovah to save by many or by few.
Na ka mea a Honatana ki te taitama e mau ana i ana patu, Haere mai, taua ka haere ki nga hoia o enei kokotikore: tera pea a Ihowa e mahi mo taua: kahore he aha ki a Ihowa kia riro ma te tokomaha, ma te tokoiti ranei e whakaora.
7 And his armour-bearer said to him, Do all that is in thy heart; turn thee; behold, I am with thee according to thy heart.
Ano ra ko te kaimau o ana patu ki a ia, Meatia nga mea katoa e paingia ana e tou ngakau: anga atu, tenei ahau hei hoa mou, hei pera me ta tou ngakau e pai ai.
8 Then said Jonathan, Behold, we will pass over to the men, and we will shew ourselves to them.
Ano ra ko Honatana, Nana, me haere atu taua ki nga tangata ra, me whakaputa atu hoki ki a ratou.
9 If they say thus to us, Stand still until we come to you, then we will stay in our place, and will not go up to them.
Ki te penei mai ta ratou ki a taua, Tu marie, kia tae atu ra ano matou ki a korua; na me tu taua i to taua turanga, e kore ano e piki ki a ratou.
10 And if they say thus, Come up to us, then we will go up; for Jehovah has given them into our hand; and this shall be the sign to us.
Engari ki te penei ta ratou ki, Piki ake ki a matou, ko reira taua piki atu ai; no te mea kua homai ratou e Ihowa ki o taua ringa: a ko tenei hei tohu ki a taua.
11 And both of them shewed themselves to the garrison of the Philistines; and the Philistines said, Behold, the Hebrews come forth out of the holes where they had hid themselves.
Na ka puta raua tokorua ki nga hoia pupuri a nga Pirihitini: a ka mea nga Pirihitini, Nana, ko nga Hiperu e puta mai ana i roto i nga rua i piri ai ratou.
12 And the men of the garrison answered Jonathan and his armour-bearer and said, Come up to us, and we will shew you something. And Jonathan said to his armour-bearer, Come up after me; for Jehovah has delivered them into the hand of Israel.
Na ka oho nga hoia pupuri ki a Honatana raua ko tana kaimau patu, ka mea, Piki ake ki a matou kia whakakitea ai tetahi mea e matou ki a korua. Na ka mea a Honatana ki te kaimau o ana patu, Piki ake i muri i ahau; kua homai hoki ratou e Ihowa ki te ringa o Iharaira.
13 And Jonathan climbed up upon his hands and upon his feet, and his armour-bearer after him; and they fell before Jonathan; and his armour-bearer slew after him.
Na ka piki atu a Honatana, he mea ngoki atu, me tana kaimau patu i muri i a ia: na hinga ana ratou i a Honatana, me te patu ano te kaimau patu i muri i a ia.
14 And that first slaughter which Jonathan and his armour-bearer wrought was about twenty men, as it were on the half-furrow of an acre of land.
Na, ko te patunga tuatahi i patu ai a Honatana raua ko tana kaimau patu, tata tonu ki te rua tekau nga tangata: ko te nui o taua wahi, me te mea kei te hawhe eka whenua.
15 And there was trembling in the camp, in the field, and among all the people; the garrison, and the ravagers, they also trembled, and the earth quaked; for it was a trembling [from] God.
Na ka pa te wiri ki te puni, ki era i te parae, ki te iwi katoa ano hoki: ko nga hoia, me nga kaipahua, i wiri ano hoki ratou; i ru ano te whenua: nui rawa te wiri.
16 And the watchmen of Saul in Gibeah of Benjamin looked, and behold, the multitude melted away, and they went on slaying one another.
A ka titiro nga tutei a Haora i Kipea o Pineamine; na, kua papahoro te ope, me te haere ano ratou, kopiko atu, kopiko mai.
17 Then said Saul to the people that were with him, Muster now, and see who is gone from us. And they mustered, and behold, Jonathan and his armour-bearer were not there.
Katahi a Haora ka mea ki te iwi i reira, i a ia, Tatauria tatou kia kitea ko wai kua riro. A, no ka tatauria e ratou, na kahore a Honatana raua ko tana kaimau patu i reira.
18 And Saul said to Ahijah, Bring hither the ark of God. For the ark of God was at that time with the children of Israel.
Na ka mea a Haora ki a Ahia, Kawea mai te aaka a te Atua. I nga tama hoki a Iharaira te aaka a te Atua i taua wa.
19 And it came to pass while Saul talked to the priest, that the noise which was in the camp of the Philistines went on and increased; and Saul said to the priest, Withdraw thy hand.
A, i a Haora e korero ana ki te tohunga, ka tino nui haere te ngangau i te puni o nga Pirihitini: na ka ki a Haora ki te tohunga, Pepeke ake tou ringa.
20 And Saul and all the people that were with him were called together, and they came to the battle; and behold, every man's sword was against his fellow, a very great confusion.
Na ka huihui a Haora ratou ko tona nuinga, a haere ana ki te whawhai: na e anga mai ana tera te hoari a tetahi, a tetahi, ki tona hoa, ki tona hoa: nui atu te pokaikaha.
21 And there were Hebrews with the Philistines before that time, who had gone up with them into the camp round about; and they also [turned] to be with the Israelites who were with Saul and Jonathan.
Na ko nga Hiperu i roto i nga Pirihitini i mua atu, i haere tahi atu nei me ratou ki te puni i te whenua i tetahi taha, i tetahi taha; na huri ana ano hoki ratou ki te taha i a Iharaira, ki nga hoa o Haora raua ko Honatana.
22 And all the men of Israel who had hid themselves in mount Ephraim heard that the Philistines fled, and they also followed hard after them in the battle.
Na pera ano nga tangata katoa o Iharaira i piri nei ki te whenua pukepuke o Eparaima, i to ratou rongonga kua whati nga Pirihitini, na kei te whai haere ano hoki i a ratou i roto i te pakanga.
23 And Jehovah saved Israel that day; and the battle passed over beyond Beth-Aven.
Heoi whakaorangia ana a Iharaira, i taua ra e Ihowa: a puta ke ana te whawhai ki Peteawene.
24 But the men of Israel were distressed that day. Now Saul had adjured the people, saying, Cursed be the man that eateth food until evening, and [until] I am avenged on mine enemies. So none of the people tasted food.
A i hemanawa nga tangata o Iharaira i taua ra: i whakaoati hoki a Haora i te iwi, i mea, Ki te kai tetahi tangata i te kai a ahiahi noa, ka kanga ia, kia whai utu ra ano ahau i oku hoariri. Na reira kihai tetahi o te iwi i anga ki te kai.
25 And all they of the land came to a wood; and there was honey on the ground.
Na ko te haerenga o nga tangata katoa o te whenua ki tetahi ngahere; a he honi kei runga i te whenua.
26 And the people had come into the wood, and behold, the honey flowed; but no man put his hand to his mouth, for the people feared the oath.
A, no te taenga o te iwi ki te ngahere, na e turuturu iho ana te honi; otiia kihai i pa te ringa o tetahi tangata ki tona waha; i wehi hoki te iwi i te oati.
27 But Jonathan had not heard when his father adjured the people; and he put forth the end of his staff which was in his hand, and dipped it in the honeycomb, and put his hand to his mouth, and his eyes became bright.
Ko Honatana ia kihai i rongo i te whakaoati a tona papa i te iwi: na ka kokiritia e ia te pito o te tokotoko i tona ringa, a toua ana ki roto ki te honikoma, whakahokia ana e ia tona ringa ki tona waha, a ka marama ona kanohi.
28 Then answered one of the people and said, Thy father strictly adjured the people, saying, Cursed be the man that eateth food this day; and the people are faint.
Katahi ka oho tetahi o te iwi, a ka mea, I tino whakaoatitia te iwi e tou papa; i mea ia, Kia kanga te tangata e kai ana i tetahi kai aianei; a e hemo ana te iwi.
29 And Jonathan said, My father has troubled the land: see, I pray you, that mine eyes are bright, because I tasted a little of this honey.
Katahi a Honatana ka mea, Raru ana te whenua nei i toku papa: titiro hoki, kua marama oku kanohi, noku i kai i tetahi wahi iti o te honi nei.
30 How much more, if the people had eaten freely to-day of the spoil of their enemies which they found? for would there not now have been a much greater slaughter among the Philistines?
Tera noa ake mehemea pea i kai noa atu te iwi inaianei i nga mea i pahuatia mai i o ratou hoariri i tupono atu ai ratou? ko tenei kahore i rahi te parekura o nga Pirihitini.
31 And they smote the Philistines that day from Michmash to Ajalon; and the people were very faint.
Na patua iho e ratou nga Pirihitini i taua rangi i Mikimaha atu a tae noa ki Aitarono: a e tino hemo ana te iwi.
32 And the people fell on the spoil, and took sheep, and oxen, and calves, and slaughtered them on the ground; and the people ate [them] with the blood.
Na ko te rerenga atu o te iwi ki nga taonga; ka mau ki nga hipi, ki nga kau, ki nga kuao kau, patua iho ki te whenua, kainga tahitia ana e te iwi me nga toto.
33 And they told Saul, saying, Behold, the people sin against Jehovah, in that they eat with the blood. And he said, Ye have acted perversely: roll me now a great stone.
Katahi ka korerotia ki a Haora ka meatia, Nana, kua hara te iwi ki a Ihowa, e kainga tahitia ana ta ratou kai me nga toto. Na ka mea ia, He mahi hianga ta koutou: hurihia mai he kohatu nui ki ahau aianei.
34 And Saul said, Disperse yourselves among the people, and say to them, Bring near to me every man his ox, and every man his sheep, and slaughter them here, and eat; and sin not against Jehovah in eating with the blood. And all the people brought every man his ox with him that night, and slaughtered [them] there.
Ka mea ano a Haora, Tomotomo atu koutou ki roto ki te iwi mea atu hoki ki a ratou, Kawea mai ki ahau, e tera, e tera, tana kau, tana hipi, ka patu ai ki konei hei kai ma koutou; kaua hoki e hara ki a Ihowa, e kai i te toto. Katahi ka kawea mai e te iwi katoa i taua po te kau a tena, a tena, a patua iho ana ki reira.
35 And Saul built an altar to Jehovah: this was the first altar he built to Jehovah.
Na ka hanga e Haora he aata ma Ihowa. Koia tenei ko te aata tuatahi i hanga e ia ma Ihowa.
36 And Saul said, Let us go down after the Philistines by night, and plunder them until the morning light, and let us not leave a man of them. And they said, Do whatsoever is good in thy sight. Then said the priest, Let us come near hither to God.
Na ka mea a Haora, Tatou ka haere ki raro, ka whai i nga Pirihitini i te po, ka pahua i a ratou a marama noa te ata; kaua ano e waiho tetahi tangata o ratou. Na ka mea ratou, Meatia ra nga mea katoa e pai ana ki tou whakaaro. Na ka mea ake te to hunga, Kia whakatata tatou ki a Ihowa.
37 And Saul inquired of God, Shall I go down after the Philistines? wilt thou give them into the hand of Israel? But he did not answer him that day.
Na ka tono whakaaro a Haora i te Atua, Me haere ranei ahau ki raro, ki te whai i nga Pirihitini? e homai ranei ratou e koe ki te ringa o Iharaira? Otiia kahore he kupu i whakahokia ki a ia i taua ra.
38 And Saul said, Draw ye near hither, all the heads of the people; and know and see wherein this sin has been this day.
Na ka mea a Haora, Neke mai, e nga rangatira katoa o te iwi: kia mohio ai, kia kite ai koutou no hea tenei hara i tenei ra.
39 For, [as] Jehovah liveth, who has saved Israel, though it be in Jonathan my son, he shall certainly die. And no one answered him among all the people.
Ta te mea, e ora ana a Ihowa e whakaora nei i a Iharaira, ahakoa no taku tama, no Honatana, ka mate ia, mate rawa. Otiia kahore he tangata o te iwi katoa hei whakahoki kupu ki a ia.
40 Then said he to all Israel, Be ye on one side, and I and Jonathan my son will be on the other side. And the people said to Saul, Do what is good in thy sight.
Katahi ia ka mea ki a Iharaira katoa, Hei tetahi taha koutou, hei tetahi taha maua ko taku tama, ko Honatana. Na ka mea te iwi ki a Haora, Meatia ra te mea e pai ana ki tou whakaaro.
41 And Saul said to Jehovah the God of Israel, Give a perfect [testimony]! And Jonathan and Saul were taken, and the people escaped.
Katahi a Haora ka mea ki a Ihowa, ki te Atua o Iharaira, Kia tika te homaitanga o te rota. Na ka mau ko Honatana raua ko Haora; i mawhiti hoki te iwi.
42 And Saul said, Cast [lots] between me and Jonathan my son. And Jonathan was taken.
Na ka mea a Haora, maka te rota mo maua ko taku tama, ko Honatana. Na ka mau ko Honatana.
43 And Saul said to Jonathan, Tell me what thou hast done. And Jonathan told him and said, With the end of the staff which is in my hand I tasted a little honey, [and] behold, I must die!
Katahi ka mea a Haora ki a Honatana, Whakaaturia mai ki ahau, i aha koe. Katahi ka whakaaturia e Honatana ki a ia, ka mea, He tika i whakamatau kau atu ahau i tetahi wahi iti o te honi ki te pito o te tokotoko i toku ringa; na, ka mate nei ahau.
44 And Saul said, God do so [to me] and more also; thou shalt certainly die, Jonathan.
Ano ra ko Haora, Kia meatia tenei e te Atua, tera atu ano hoki; ka mate rawa hoki koe, e Honatana.
45 And the people said to Saul, Shall Jonathan die, who has wrought this great salvation in Israel? Far be it! [as] Jehovah liveth, there shall not a hair of his head fall to the ground; for he has wrought with God this day. So the people delivered Jonathan, that he died not.
Na ka mea te iwi ki a Haora, Kia mate a Honatana nana nei tenei whakaoranga nui i roto i a Iharaira? Kahore ra hoki. E ora ana a Ihowa, e kore e taka tetahi makawe o tona matenga ki te whenua; i te mahi tahi nei hoki ia me te Atua i tenei ra. He oi whakaorangia ana a Honatana e te iwi, a kihai i mate.
46 And Saul went up from following the Philistines; and the Philistines went to their own place.
Katahi ka hoki a Haora i te whai i nga Pirihitini; a haere ana nga Pirihitini ki to ratou na wahi.
47 And Saul took the kingdom over Israel, and fought against all his enemies round about, against Moab, and against the children of Ammon, and against Edom, and against the kings of Zobah, and against the Philistines; and whithersoever he turned himself, he discomfited [them].
A, no ka riro i a Haora te kingitanga o Iharaira, ka whawhai ia ki ona hoariri katoa i tetahi taha, i tetahi taha, ki a Moapa, ki nga tama a Amona, ki a Eroma, ki nga kingi ano o Topa, ki nga Pirihitini, a he ana ratou i a ia i nga wahi katoa i tahuri ai ia.
48 And he did valiantly, and smote the Amalekites, and delivered Israel out of the hands of their spoilers.
A i puta tona toa, a patua ana nga Amareki, a ora ake i a ia a Iharaira i te ringa o ona kaipahua.
49 And the sons of Saul were Jonathan, and Jishvi, and Malchi-shua. And the names of his two daughters: the name of the firstborn Merab, and the name of the younger Michal.
Na ko nga tama a Haora, ko Honatana, ko Ihui, ko Marikihua; a, ko nga ingoa enei o ana tamahine tokorua, ko te ingoa o te matamua ko Merapa, ko te ingoa o to muri ko Mikara.
50 And the name of Saul's wife was Ahinoam, the daughter of Ahimaaz; and the name of the captain of his host was Abner, the son of Ner, Saul's uncle.
A, ko te ingoa o te wahine a Haora ko Ahinoama, he tamahine na Ahimaata: ko te ingoa hoki o te rangatira o tana ope ko Apanere, tama a Nere matua keke o Haora.
51 And Kish the father of Saul, and Ner the father of Abner were sons of Abiel.
Ko Kihi hoki te papa o Haora; a he tama na Apiere a Nere papa o Apanere.
52 And there was sore war against the Philistines all the days of Saul; and when Saul saw any mighty man, or any valiant man, he took him to himself.
A he nui te whawhai ki nga Pirihitini i nga ra katoa o Haora; a ka kite a Haora i tetahi marohirohi, i tetahi maia, na ka tangohia e ia mana.
