< Joshua 2 >
1 And Joshua the son of Nun sent out of Shittim two spies secretly, saying: 'Go view the land, and Jericho.' And they went, and came into the house of a harlot whose name was Rahab, and lay there.
HOOUNA aku la o Iosua, ke keiki a Nuna i na kanaka elua, mai Sitima aku e kiu malu, i ae la, Ou haele e makai i ka aina ia Ieriko. Hele aku laua a komo iloko o ka hale o kekahi wahine hookamakama, o Rahaba kona inoa, a moe iho la laua malaila.
2 And it was told the king of Jericho, saying: 'Behold, there came men in hither to-night of the children of Israel to search out the land.'
Ua haiia'ku la i ke alii o Ieriko, i ka i ana aku, Aia hoi, ua hele mai nei i ka po, kekahi mau kanaka, no na mamo a Iseraela e makai i ka aina.
3 And the king of Jericho sent unto Rahab, saying: 'Bring forth the men that are come to thee, that are entered into thy house; for they are come to search out all the land.'
Hoouna aku la ke alii o Ieriko, i aku la ia Rahaba, E lawe mai oe iwaho i ua mau kanaka la i hele mai iou la, a i komo iloko o kou hale; no ka mea, ua hele mai laua e makai i ka aina a pau.
4 And the woman took the two men, and hid them; and she said: 'Yea, the men came unto me, but I knew not whence they were;
Lawe ae la ka wahine i ua mau kanaka la elua, huna iho la ia laua a olelo aku la penei, Hele mai la kekahi mau kanaka io'u nei, aole hoi au i ike i kahi a laua i hele mai ai:
5 and it came to pass about the time of the shutting of the gate, when it was dark, that the men went out; whither the men went I know not; pursue after them quickly; for ye shall overtake them.'
A i ke pani ana o ka puka i ka poeleele, hele aku la ua mau kanaka la iwaho. Aole au i ike i ko laua wahi i hele ai. E hahai koke aku ia laua, a e loaa no.
6 But she had brought them up to the roof, and hid them with the stalks of flax, which she had spread out upon the roof.
Aka, ua lawe ae la ia ia laua maluna o ka hale, a huna iho la ia laua malalo iho o kahi olona ana i hoonohonoho ai, ma ia wahi maluna.
7 And the men pursued after them the way to the Jordan unto the fords; and as soon as they that pursued after them were gone out, the gate was shut.
Hahai aku la na kanaka ia laua ma ke ala e hiki aku ai i Ioredane, a hiki i ke ahua. A puka aku la ka poe hahai iwaho, alaila, paniia iho la ka puka.
8 And before they were laid down, she came up unto them upon the roof;
Mamua o ko laua moe ana, pii aku la ua wahine nei io laua la maluna o ka hale;
9 and she said unto the men: 'I know that the LORD hath given you the land, and that your terror is fallen upon us, and that all the inhabitants of the land melt away before you.
I aku la ia i ua mau kanaka la, Ua ike no wau, ua haawi mai o Iehova i ka aina no oukou, a ua kau mai ka weliweli ia oukou maluna o makou, a ua maule ka poe a pau e noho nei ma keia aina ia oukou.
10 For we have heard how the LORD dried up the water of the Red Sea before you, when ye came out of Egypt; and what ye did unto the two kings of the Amorites, that were beyond the Jordan, unto Sihon and to Og, whom ye utterly destroyed.
No ka mea, ua lohe makou i ko Iehova hoomaloo ana i ka wai o ke Kaiula imua o oukou, i ka wa i puka mai ai oukou mailoko mai o Aigupita; a me ka mea a oukou i hana aku ai i na'lii elua o ka Amora ma kela aoao o Ioredane, ia Sihona, laua o Oga, i na mea a oukou i anai loa ai.
11 And as soon as we had heard it, our hearts did melt, neither did there remain any more spirit in any man, because of you; for the LORD your God, He is God in heaven above, and on earth beneath.
A lohe makou, maule iho la ko makou mau naau, aole i koe ke aho iloko o kekahi kanaka imua o oukou; no ka mea, o Iehova, ko oukou Akua, oia ke Akua maluna, ma ka lani, a malalo hoi ma ka honua.
12 Now therefore, I pray you, swear unto me by the LORD, since I have dealt kindly with you, that ye also will deal kindly with my father's house — and give me a true token —
Ano hoi, ke noi aku nei au ia olua, e hoohiki olua ia Iehova no'u, no ka'u hana lokomaikai ana'ku ia olua, e hana lokomaikai mai no hoi olua ia'u, a me ka poe o ko'u makuakane, a e haawi mai hoi olua i hoailona oiaio;
13 and save alive my father, and my mother, and my brethren, and my sisters, and all that they have, and deliver our lives from death.'
A e hoola oukou i ko'u makuakane a me ko'u makuwahine, a me ko'u poe kaikunane, a me na kaikaina o'u a me ko lakou mea a pau, a e hoopakele mai ia makou i ka make.
14 And the men said unto her: 'Our life for yours, if ye tell not this our business; and it shall be, when the LORD giveth us the land, that we will deal kindly and truly with thee.'
I mai la ua mau kanaka la ia ia, E lilo no ko maua ola no kou, ke hai ole oe i keia hana a maua. A i ka wa e haawi mai ai o Iehova i ka aina no makou, alaila, e hana lokomaikai aku maua ia oe, me ka oiaio.
15 Then she let them down by a cord through the window; for her house was upon the side of the wall, and she dwelt upon the wall.
Alaila, ma ke kaula oia i kuu iho ai ia laua ilalo, ma ka puka makani; no ka mea, aia kona hale maluna o ka pa, a noho no oia ma ka pa.
16 And she said unto them: 'Get you to the mountain, lest the pursuers light upon you; and hide yourselves there three days, until the pursuers be returned; and afterward may ye go your way.'
I aku la ia ia laua, E hele olua i ka mauna, o loaa olua i ka poe hahai; a e pee malaila, i ekolu mau la, a hoi mai ka poe hahai; alaila, o hele olua i ko olua wahi e hele ai.
17 And the men said unto her: 'We will be guiltless of this thine oath which thou hast made us to swear.
I mai la ua mau kanaka la ia ia, Aole loa maua e lawehala i ka hoohiki ana a maua i hoohiki ai nou.
18 Behold, when we come into the land, thou shalt bind this line of scarlet thread in the window which thou didst let us down by; and thou shalt gather unto thee into the house thy father, and thy mother, and thy brethren, and all thy father's household.
A hiki makou i keia aina, alaila, e hikii oe ma ka puka i keia kaula ulaula au i hookuu iho ai ia maua ilalo; a e hoakoakoa mai oe, ma kou hale, i kou makuakane a me kou makuwahine, a me kou poe kaikunane a me ka poe a pau o kou makuakane.
19 And it shall be, that whosoever shall go out of the doors of thy house into the street, his blood shall be upon his head, and we will be guiltless; and whosoever shall be with thee in the house, his blood shall be on our head, if any hand be upon him.
A o ka mea puka mawaho o ka puka o kou hale ma ke alanui, aia no kona koko maluna o kona poo iho, a e hala ole maua; a o na mea ma ou nei, maloko o ka hale, eia no kona koko maluna o ko maua poo, ke kau ka lima maluna ona.
20 But if thou utter this our business, then we will be guiltless of thine oath which thou hast made us to swear.'
A ina e hai oe i keia hana a maua, alaila, aole maua e lawehala i ka hoohiki ana a maua i hoohiki ai nou.
21 And she said: 'According unto your words, so be it.' And she sent them away, and they departed; and she bound the scarlet line in the window.
I aku la keia, E like me ka olua olelo, pela no. Kuu iho la oia ia laua, a hele aku la laua; a hikii iho la ia i ke kaula ula ma ka puka.
22 And they went, and came unto the mountain, and abode there three days, until the pursuers were returned; and the pursuers sought them throughout all the way, but found them not.
Hele aku la laua a hiki i ka mauna, a noho iho la ilaila i na la ekolu, a hoi mai ka poe hahai. Ua imi aku la ka poe hahai ia laua, ma ke ala a pau, aole hoi i loaa.
23 Then the two men returned, and descended from the mountain, and passed over, and came to Joshua the son of Nun; and they told him all that had befallen them.
A hoi mai la ua mau kanaka la elua, e iho ana mai ka mauna mai, hele ae la laua, a hiki aku la io Iosua la, i ke keiki a Nuna, a hai aku la ia ia i na mea a pau i loaa ia lana:
24 And they said unto Joshua: 'Truly the LORD hath delivered into our hands all the land; and moreover all the inhabitants of the land do melt away before us.'
Olelo aku la laua ia Iosua, Ua haawi io mai no o Iehova i ka aina a pau i ko kakou lima; no ka mea, ua maule hoi ka poe a pau e noho ana ma ia aina, no kakou.
