< 1 Samuel 5 >
1 Now the Philistines had taken the ark of God, and they brought it from Eben-ezer unto Ashdod.
LAWE aku la ko Pilisetia i ka pahu o ke Akua, a halihali aku la mai Ebenezera aku a hiki i Asedoda.
2 And the Philistines took the ark of God, and brought it into the house of Dagon, and set it by Dagon.
A lawe ae la ko Pilisetia i ka pahu o ke Akua, a hali aku la iloko o ka hale o Dagona, a waiho ma ka aoao o Dagona.
3 And when they of Ashdod arose early on the morrow, behold, Dagon was fallen upon his face to the ground before the ark of the LORD. And they took Dagon, and set him in his place again.
Ia la iho, ala ae la ko Asedoda i kakahiaka nui, aia hoi, ua hina iho la o Dagona ilalo ke alo ma ka honua imua o ka pahu o Iehova. Lawe aku la lakou ia Dagona, a hooku hou ia ia ma kona wahi.
4 And when they arose early on the morrow morning, behold, Dagon was fallen upon his face to the ground before the ark of the LORD; and the head of Dagon and both the palms of his hands lay cut off upon the threshold; only the trunk of Dagon was left to him.
A ia la ae, ala hou ae la lakou i kakahiaka nui, aia hoi, ua hina iho la o Dagona ilalo ke alo ma ka honua imua o ka pahu o Iehova; a o ke poo o Dagona, a me kona mau lima elua, ua hemo ma ka paepae, a o ka ia wale no i koe ia ia.
5 Therefore neither the priests of Dagon, nor any that come into Dagon's house, tread on the threshold of Dagon in Ashdod unto this day.
No ia mea, o na kahuna a Dagona, a me na mea a pau e hele maloko o ka hale o Dagona, aole lakou e hehi maluna o ka paepae o Dagona ma Asedoda, a hiki i keia wa.
6 But the hand of the LORD was heavy upon them of Ashdod, and He destroyed them, and smote them with emerods, even Ashdod and the borders thereof.
A ua kaumaha ka lima o Iehova maluna o ko Asedoda, a luku mai oia ia lakou, a hahau mai ia lakou i ka mai hikoko, i ko Asedoda a me ko laila wahi a puni.
7 And when the men of Ashdod saw that it was so, they said: 'The ark of the God of Israel shall not abide with us; for His hand is sore upon us, and upon Dagon our god.'
A ike aku la na kanaka o Asedoda i ka mea i hanaia pela, i ae la lakou, Aole e noho me kakou ka pahu o ke Akua o ka Iseraela: no ka mea, ua kaumaha kona lima maluna o kakou, a maluna o Dagona ko kakou akua.
8 They sent therefore and gathered all the lords of the Philistines unto them, and said: 'What shall we do with the ark of the God of Israel?' And they answered: 'Let the ark of the God of Israel be carried about unto Gath.' And they carried the ark of the God of Israel about thither.
Hoouna aku la lakou e houluulu i na haku a pau o ko Pilisetia io lakou la, ninau aku la ia lakou, Heaha ka makou e hana aku ai i ka pahu o ke Akua o ka Iseraela? I mai la lakou, E laweia'ku ka pahu o ke Akua o ka Iseraela ma Gata. A lawe aku la lakou i ka pahu o ke Akua o ka Iseraela ilaila.
9 And it was so, that, after they had carried it about, the hand of the LORD was against the city with a very great discomfiture; and He smote the men of the city, both small and great, and emerods broke out upon them.
A mahope o ka lakou lawe ana ku ia mea malaila, ku e mai la ka lima o Iehova i ua kulanakauhale la me ka luku nui loa; a hahau mai ia i ua kanaka o ke kulanakauhale, i ka mea uuku, a me ka mea nui, a poha iho la ko lakou puupuu koko.
10 So they sent the ark of God to Ekron. And it came to pass, as the ark of God came to Ekron, that the Ekronites cried out, saying: 'They have brought about the ark of the God of Israel to us, to slay us and our people.'
No ia mea, lawe aku la lakou i ka pahu o ke Akua i Ekerona. A hiki aku la ka pahu o ke Akua ma Ekerona, auwe iho la ko Ekerona, i ka i ana ae, Ua lawe mai lakou i ka pahu o ke Akua o ka Iseraela io kakou nei e pepehi ia kakou a me ko kakou poe kanaka.
11 They sent therefore and gathered together all the lords of the Philistines, and they said: 'Send away the ark of the God of Israel, and let it go back to its own place, that it slay us not, and our people'; for there was a deadly discomfiture throughout all the city; the hand of God was very heavy there.
No ia hoi, hoouna aku la lakou e houluulu i na haku a pau o ko Pilisetia, i aku la, E lawe aku i ka pahu o ke Akua o ka Iseraela, a e hoihoi aku ma kona wahi, i ole ai ia e pepehi mai ia makou a me ko makou poe kanaka: no ka mea, he make nui ma ke kulanakauhale a pau; ua kaumaha loa ka lima o ke Akua malaila.
12 And the men that died not were smitten with the emerods; and the cry of the city went up to heaven.
A o na kanaka aole i make, loohia lakou e ka mai hikoko; a pii ae la ka uwe o ua kulanakauhale la i ka lani.
