2 Samuel 1
1 And it came to pass after the death of Saul, when David had returned from the slaughter of the Amalekites, that David abode two days in Ziklag.
Na i muri iho i te matenga o Haora, i te mea kua hoki mai a Rawiri i te patunga i nga Amareki, a kua rua nga ra o Rawiri e noho ana ki Tikiraka:
2 And it came to pass on the third day, that behold, a man came out of the camp from Saul with his garments rent, and earth upon his head; and as soon as he came to David, he fell to the earth and did obeisance.
I te toru o nga ra, na ko tetahi tangata e haere mai ana i te puni i a Haora, he mea haehae ona kakahu, he oneone i runga i tona matenga: a, no tona taenga mai ki a Rawiri, ka hinga ia ki te whenua, a ka piko.
3 And David said to him, Whence comest thou? And he said to him, Out of the camp of Israel am I escaped.
Na ka mea a Rawiri ki a ia, I haere mai koe i hea? Ka mea tera ki a ia, I mawhiti mai ahau i te puni o Iharaira.
4 And David said to him, What has taken place? I pray thee, tell me. And he said that the people had fled from the battle, and many of the people also had fallen and died, and that Saul and Jonathan his son were dead also.
Ano ra ko Rawiri ki a ia, I pehea te mea ra? tena, korerotia mai ki ahau. Na ka mea ia, Kua whati te iwi i te whawhai, he tokomaha hoki o te iwi i hinga, i mate; kua mate hoki a Haora raua ko tana tama, ko Honatana.
5 And David said to the young man that told him, How knowest thou that Saul and Jonathan his son are dead?
Ano ra ko Rawiri ki te tamaiti nana nei i korero ki a ia, I mohiotia e koe ki te aha kua mate a Haora raua ko tana tama ko Honatana?
6 And the young man that told him said, I happened by chance to be upon mount Gilboa, and behold, Saul leaned on his spear; and behold, the chariots and horsemen followed hard after him.
Na ka mea taua tamaiti nana nei i korero ki a ia, I tupono noa ahau ki runga i Maunga Kiripoa, na, ko Haora e okioki ana ki tana tao; na, e whai tata ana i a ia nga hariata me nga kaieke hoiho.
7 And he looked behind him, and saw me, and called to me. And I said, Here am I.
Na, i tona tahuritanga ki muri, ka kite i ahau, a ka karanga ki ahau. Na ka mea ahau, Tenei ahau.
8 And he said to me, Who art thou? And I said to him, I am an Amalekite.
Ano ra ko ia ki ahau, Ko wai koe? Ano ra ko ahau ki a ia, He Amareki ahau.
9 He said to me again, Stand, I pray thee, over me, and slay me; for anguish has seized me; for my life is yet whole in me.
Na ka mea ia ki ahau, Tena, e tu ki toku taha, whakamatea hoki ahau, kua mau pu hoki ahau i te pouri; no te mea kei te toitu tonu te ora i roto i ahau.
10 So I stood over him, and put him to death, for I knew that he would not live after his fall; and I took the crown that was upon his head, and the bracelet that was on his arm, and have brought them hither to my lord.
Heoi tu ana ahau ki tona taha, whakamatea ana ia e ahau; i mohio hoki ahau e kore rawa ia e ora ake i te mea ka hinga nei ia. Na tangohia ana e ahau te karauna i tona matenga, me te poroporo i tona ringa, a kawea mai ana e ahau ki konei ki toku ariki.
11 Then David took hold of his garments and rent them; and all the men that were with him [did] likewise.
Katahi a Rawiri ka mau ki ona kakahu, a haehaea ana e ia; a i pera hoki ona hoa katoa:
12 And they mourned, and wept, and fasted until even for Saul, and for Jonathan his son, and for the people of Jehovah, and for the house of Israel; because they were fallen by the sword.
Na ka uhunga ratou, ka tangi, ka nohopuku a ahiahi noa, mo Haora, mo tana tama, mo Honatana, mo te iwi ano a Ihowa, mo te whare hoki o Iharaira, i hinga nei i te hoari.
13 And David said to the young man that told him, Whence art thou? And he said, I am the son of an Amalekite stranger.
Na ka mea a Rawiri ki te tamaiti nana nei i korero ki a ia, No hea koe? Ano ra ko tera, He tama ahau na tetahi manene, na tetahi Amareki.
14 And David said to him, How wast thou not afraid to stretch forth thy hand to destroy Jehovah's anointed?
Ano ra ko Rawiri ki a ia, He aha koe te wehi ai? he aha i totoro ai tou ringa ki te huna i ta Ihowa i whakawahi ai?
15 Then David called one of the young men and said, Draw near, [and] fall on him. And he smote him that he died.
Katahi a Rawiri ka karanga ki tetahi o ana taitama, ka mea, Whakatata atu, e rere ki runga ki a ia. Na patua ana ia e ia, mate ake.
16 And David said to him, Thy blood be upon thy head; for thy mouth has testified against thee, saying, I have slain Jehovah's anointed.
I mea ano a Rawiri ki a ia, Hei runga i tou matenga ou toto; kua whakaatu mai na hoki tou waha i tou he, kua mea, Naku i whakamate ta Ihowa i whakawahi ai.
17 And David lamented with this lamentation over Saul and over Jonathan his son;
Na ka waiatatia e Rawiri tenei apakura mo Haora raua ko tana tama, ko Honatana:
18 and he bade them teach the children of Judah [the song of] the bow. Behold, it is written in the book of Jasher: —
I mea hoki ia kia whakaakona nga tama a Hura ki te waiata o te kopere: e mau na te tuhituhi ki te pukapuka a Iahera.
19 The beauty of Israel is slain upon thy high places: how are the mighty fallen!
Tukitukia ana tou ataahua, e Iharaira, ki ou wahi teitei. Ano te hinganga o nga marohirohi!
20 Tell [it] not in Gath, carry not the tidings in the streets of Ashkelon; Lest the daughters of the Philistines rejoice, Lest the daughters of the uncircumcised triumph.
Kaua e korerotia ki Kata; kaua e kauwhautia ki nga huarahi o Ahakerono; kei koa nga tamahine a nga Pirihitini, kei whakamanamana nga tamahine a te kokotikore.
21 Ye mountains of Gilboa, let there be no dew, no rain upon you, nor fields of heave-offerings! For there the shield of the mighty was vilely cast away, The shield of Saul, [as] not anointed with oil.
E nga maunga o Kiripoa, kati rawa he tomairangi mo koutou, he ua, he mara e tukua ai te whakahere; i akiritia kinotia hoki ki reira te pukupuku o te marohirohi, te pukupuku o Haora, me te mea kihai i whakawahia ki te hinu.
22 From the blood of the slain, from the fat of the mighty, The bow of Jonathan turned not back, And the sword of Saul returned not empty.
He toto tena no te hunga i tu, he ngako tena no nga marohirohi, kahore he whakahokinga mai o te kopere a Honatana, kihai ano te hoari a Haora i hoki kau mai.
23 Saul and Jonathan, beloved and pleasant in their lives, Even in their death were not divided; They were swifter than eagles, they were stronger than lions.
Ko Haora, ko Honatana, he aroha, he whakaahuareka i to raua oranga; kihai hoki i wehea i to raua matenga; nui atu to raua tere i to nga ekara, to raua kaha i to nga raiona.
24 Ye daughters of Israel, weep over Saul, who clothed you in scarlet with splendour, Who put ornaments of gold upon your apparel.
E nga tamahine a Iharaira, tangihia a Haora, nana nei o koutou kakahu ngangana i huatau ai, nana nei i piri ai nga whakapaipai koura ki o koutou weruweru.
25 How are the mighty fallen in the midst of the battle! Jonathan is slain upon thy high places.
Ano te hinganga o nga marohirohi i waenganui o te tatauranga! E Honatana, i werohia na i runga i ou wahi teitei.
26 I am distressed for thee, my brother Jonathan: very pleasant wast thou unto me; Thy love to me was wonderful, passing women's love.
Mamae ana ahau, he whakaaro ki a koe, e toku tuakana, e Honatana; nui atu toku whakaahuareka ki a koe: he hanga whakamiharo tou aroha ki ahau, nui atu i to nga wahine aroha.
27 How are the mighty fallen, and the instruments of war perished!
Ano te hinganga o nga marohirohi: ano te korenga o nga patu o te pakanga!
