2 Samuel 15
1 Now after these things Absalom made himself chariots, and horsemen, and fifty men to run before him.
MAHOPE iho o ia mea la, hoomakaukau ae la o Abesaloma i na hale kaa a me na lio nona, a me na kanaka he kanalima e holo imua ona.
2 And Absalom rising up early stood by the entrance of the gate, and when any man had business to come to the king’s judgment, Absalom called him to him, and said: Of what city art thou? He answered, and said: Thy servant is of such a tribe of Israel.
Ala ae la o Abesaloma i kakahiaka, a ku mai la ma kapa alanui ma ka ipuka: a hele aku kekahi kanaka i ke alii ia ia ka mea hakaka e hooponoponoia'i ma ke kanawai, alaila hea aku la o Abesaloma ia ia, i aku la, No ke kulanakauhale hea oe? I mai la kela, No kekahi ohana a Iseraela kau kauwa.
3 And Absalom answered him: Thy words seem to me good and just. But there is no man appointed by the king to hear thee. And Absalom said:
I aku la o Abesaloma, Aia, he maikai, a he pono kau mau mea; aka, aohe kanaka o ke alii nana e hooponopono i kau.
4 O that they would make me judge over the land, that all that have business might come to me, that I might do them justice.
I aku la hoi o Abesaloma, Ina paha e hoonohoia au he lunakanawai o ka aina, alaila o kela kanaka o keia kanaka ia ia ka mea e hookolokoloia'i, e hele mai ia io'u nei, a e hooponopono aku au nona.
5 Moreover when any man came to him to salute him, he put forth his hand, and took him, and kissed him.
A I ka wa i hele mai ai kekahi kanaka e uwe aloha ia ia, o aku la ia i kona lima, lalau aku la ia ia, a honi ae la.
6 And this he did to all Israel that came for judgment, to be heard by the king, and he enticed the hearts of the men of Israel.
Pela no i hana aku ai o Abesaloma i ka Iseraela a pau i hele mai i ke alii no ka hooponoponoia. A aihue ae la o Abesaloma i na naau o ka Iseraela.
7 And after forty years, Absalom said to king David: Let me go, and pay my vows which I have vowed to the Lord in Hebron.
Mahope iho o na makahiki hookahi kanaha, i aku la o Abesaloma i ke alii, Ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e ae mai oe e hele au i Heberona e hooko aku i kuu hoohild ana a'u i hoohiki ai ia Iehova.
8 For thy servant made avow, when he was in Gessur of Syria, saying: If the Lord shall bring me again into Jerusalem I will offer sacrifice to the Lord.
No ka mea, hoohiki aku la au i kuu wa i noho ai ma Gesura i Suria, i aku la, Ina paha e hoihoi io aku o Iehova ia'u ma Ierusalema, alaila au e malama aku ai ia Iehova.
9 And king David said to him: Go in peace. And he arose, and went to Hebron.
I mai la ke alii ia ia, O hele oe me ke aloha. Ku ae la ia, a hele aku la i Heberona.
10 And Absalom sent spies into all the tribes of Israel, saying: As soon as you shall hear the sound of the trumpet, say ye: Absalom reigneth in Hebron.
Hoouna aku la o Abesaloma i na kiu iwaena o na ohana a pau o ka Iseraela, i aku la, A lohe oukou i ke kani ana o ka pu, alaila, e olelo oukou, E alii ana o Abesaloma ma Heberona.
11 Now there went with Absalom two hundred men out of Jerusalem that were called, going with simplicity of heart, and knowing nothing of the design.
Hele pu aku la me Abesaloma mai Ierusalema aku elua haneri kanaka i waeia; a hele naaupo wale no lakou, aole i ike i kekahi mea.
12 Absalom also sent for Achitophel the Gilonite, David’s counsellor, from his city Gilo. And while he was offering sacrifices, there was a strong conspiracy, and the people running together increased with Absalom.
Hoouna aku la o Abesaloma e kii ia Ahitopela no Gilo, he kakaolelo no Davida, e hele mai mai kona kulanakaauhale, mai Gilo mai, i ka wa ana i mohai aku ai. Ua ikaika no ka poe kipi; no ka mea, ua mahuahua mau mai a nui ae na kanaka me Abesaloma.
13 And there came a messenger to David, saying: All Israel with their whole heart followeth Absalom.
Hele mai la kekahi kanaka io Davida la, i mai la, Aia mamuli o Abesaloma na naau o na kanaka o ka Iseraela.
14 And David said to his servants, that were with him in Jerusalem: Arise and let us flee: for we shall not escape else from the face of Absalom: make haste to go out, lest he come and overtake us, and bring ruin upon us, and smite the city with the edge of the sword.
I mai la o Davida i na kanaka ona a pau ma Ierusalema, E ku ae, a e holo aku kakou; no ka mea, pela wale no e pakele ai kakou mai o Abesaloma aku: e wikiwiki ka hele aku, o hiki koke mai oia io kakou nei, a hooili mai oia i ka ino maluna o kakou, a pepehi mai i ke kulanakauhale nei me ka maka o ka pahikaua.
15 And the king’s servants said to him: Whatsoever our lord the king shall command, we thy servants will willingly execute.
I aku la na kanaka o ke alii, Eia hoi makou, e hana na kauwa au i ka mea au e olelo mai.
16 And the king went forth, and all his household on foot: and the king left ten women his concubines to keep the house:
Hele aku la ke alii iwaho, a o kona ohana a pau mahope ona: waiho iho lake alii i na wahine he umi, he mau haiawahine e malama i ka hale.
17 And the king going forth and all Israel on foot, stood afar off from the house:
Hele aku la ke alii iwaho, a o na kanaka a pau mahope ona, a kakali aku la ma kahi mamao aku.
18 And all his servants walked by him, and the bands of the Cerethi, and the Phelethi, and all the Gethites, valiant warriors, six hundred men who had followed him from Geth on foot, went before the king.
Hele pu aku la kana poe kauwa a pau me ia; hele aku la hoi imua o ke alii ka poe Kereti a pau, a o ka poe Peleti a pau, me ka poe Giti a pau, eono haneri kanaka ka poe hele mai mamuli ona mai Gata mai.
19 And the king said to Ethai the Gethite: Why comest thou with us? return and dwell with the king, for thou art a stranger, and art come out of thy own place.
Alaila i aku la ke alii ia Itai ke Giti, No ke aha hi oe e hele pu ai me makou E hoi hou i kou wahi, a e noho me ke alii, no ka mea, he malihini oe, a no ka aiha e mai.
20 Yesterday thou camest, and today shalt thou be forced to go forth with us? but I shall go whither I am going: return thou, and take back thy brethren with thee, and the Lord will shew thee mercy, and truth, because thou hast shewn grace and fidelity.
Inehinei wale no kou hele ana mai, a e pono no anei e hooauwana aku au ia oe iluna a ilalo me makou Ke hele nei au i kuu wahi e hele ai; nolala, e hoi oe, a e kono pu me oe i ou mau hoahar nau: a me oe no ke alohaia mai a me ka oiaio.
21 And Ethai answered the king, saying: As the Lord liveth, and as my lord the king liveth: in what place soever thou shalt be, my lord, O king, either in death, or in life, there will thy servant be.
Olelo mai la o Itai i ke alii, i mai la, Ma ke ola ana o Iehova, a me ke ola ana o ko'u haku o ke alii, he oiaio no, ma na wahi a pau a kuu haku a ke alii e noho ai me ka make paha, a me ke ola paha, malaila pu no hoi kau kanwa nei.
22 And David said to Ethai: Come, and pass over. And Ethai the Gethite passed, and all the men that were with him, and the rest of the people.
I aku la ke alii ia Itai, E hele pu, a e hele aku hoi oe ma kela aoao. Hele aku la o Itai ke Giti ma kela aoao me na kanaka ona a pau, a me na kamalii a pau me ia.
23 And they all wept with a loud voice, and all the people passed over: the king also himself went over the brook Cedron, and all the people marched towards the way that looketh to the desert.
Uwe aku la ko ka aina a pau me ka leo nui, a hele nui aku la na kanaka ma kela aoao: o ke alii no hoi kekahi i hele aku ma kela aoao o ke kahawai o Kederona; a hele aku la na kanaka a pau i ke ala o ka waonahele.
24 And Sadoc the priest also came, and all the Levites with him carrying the ark of the covenant of God, and they set down the ark of God: and Abiathar went up, till all the people that was come out of the city had done passing.
Aia hoi o Zadoka a me ka poe Levi a pau me ia, e halihali ana i ka pahu berita o ke Akua: kau iho la lakou i ka pahu o ke Akua ilalo; a pii aku la o Abiatara, a pau mai na kanaka i ka hele mailoko mai o ke kulanakauhale.
25 And the king said to Sadoc: Carry back the ark of God into the city: if I shall find grace in the sight of the Lord, he will bring me again, and he will shew me it, and his tabernacle.
I aku la ke alii ia Zadoka, E hoihoi oe i ka pahu o ke Akua iloko o ke kulanakauhale: ina paha e loaa ia'u ke aloha ma na maka o Iehova, alaila e hoihoi mai kela ia'u, a e hoike mai ia mea ia'u a me kona wahi noho.
26 But if he shall say to me: Thou pleasest me not: I am ready, let him do that which is good before him.
Aka, ina paha e olelo mai kela, Aole o'u oluolu ia oe; eia hoi wau, e hana mai kela ia'u e like me ka mea i pono ia ia.
27 And the king said to Sadoc the priest: O seer, return into the city in peace: and let Achimaas thy son, and Jonathan the son of Abiathar, your two sons, be with you.
I aku la hoi ke alii ia Zadoka ke kahuna, aole anei oe he kaula? E hoi hou oe i ke kulanakauhale me ke aloha, me kau mau keikikane elua me Ahimaaza kau keiki, a me Ionatana ke keiki a Abiatara.
28 Behold I will lie hid in the plains of the wilderness, till there come word from you to certify me.
Aia, e kali no wau ma ka papu o ka waonahele, a loaa ia'u ka olelo mai o olua mai la e hoike mai ai ia'u.
29 So Sadoc and Abiathar carried back the ark of God into Jerusalem: and they tarried there.
Nolaila, hoihoi aku la o Zadoka laua o Abiatara i ka pahu o ke Akua i Ierusalema: a noho iho la laua ilaila.
30 But David went up by the ascent of mount Olivet, going up and weeping, walking barefoot, and with his head covered, and all the people that were with them, went up with their heads covered weeping.
Pii aku la o Davida ma ke alapii o Oliveta, e uwe ana ma kona hele ana, me ka uhiia o kona poo; a hele kamaa ole ia: a uhi iho la kela kanaka keia kanaka me ia i kona poo; a pii aku la lakou, a uwe iho la ma ko lakou hele ana.
31 And it was told David that Achitophel also was in the conspiracy with Absalom, and David said: Infatuate, O Lord, I beseech thee, the counsel of Achitophel.
I mai la kekahi ia Davida, Aia o Ahitopela me ka poe kipi me Abesaloma. I aku la o Davida, E Iehova, ke pule aku nei au ia oe, e hoolilo oe i ka oleloao a Ahitopela i mea lapuwale.
32 And when David was come to the top of the mountain, where he was about to adore the Lord, behold Chusai the Arachite, came to meet him with his garment rent and his head covered with earth.
A hiki aku la o Davida iluna, kahi ana i hoomana aku ai i ke Akua, aia hoi, hele mai la o Husai no Areki e halawai me ia, ua haehae kona kapa, a he lepo maluna o kona poo.
33 And David said to him: If thou come with me, thou wilt be a burden to me:
I aku la o Davida ia ia, Ina paha e hele pu oe me au, alaila e kaumaha wau ia oe:
34 But if thou return into the city, and wilt say to Absalom: I am thy servant, O king: as I have been thy father’s servant, so I will be thy servant: thou shalt defeat the counsel of Achitophel.
Aka, i hoi hou aku paha oe i ke kulanakauhale, a e i aku ia Abesaloma, E hookauwa aku au nau, e ke alii, e like me ka'u i hookauwa aku ai na kou makuakane mamua, pela hoi au e hookauwa aku ai nau; alaila, e hiki paha ia oe ke hoolilo i ka oleloao a Ahitopela i mea ole no'u.
35 And thou hast with thee Sadoc, and Abiathar the priests: and what thing soever thou shalt hear out of the king’s house, thou shalt tell it to Sadoc and Abiathar the priests.
A o Zadoka laua o Abiatara na kahuna, aole anei laua pu kekahi me oe? Nolaila, o kau mea e lohe mailoko mai o ka hale o ke alii, oia kau e hai aku ai ia Zadoka a me Abiatara na kahuna.
36 And there are with them their two sons Achimaas the son of Sadoc, and Jonathan the son of Abiathar: and you shall send by them to me every thing that you shall hear.
Aia no me laua ka laua mau keikikane o Ahimaaza ka Zadoka a o Ionatana ka Abiatara, a ma o laua la e hoouka mai ai oukou i na mea a pau a oukou e lohe ai.
37 Then Chusai the friend of David went into the city, and Absalom came into Jerusalem.
Alaila hoi aku la o Husai ka hoalauna o Davida maloko o ke kulanakauhale; a hele mai la hoi o Abesaloma i Ierusalema.
