< 1 Samuel 11 >
1 Then Nahash the Ammonite came up, and encamped against Jabeshgilead: and all the men of Jabesh said to Nahash, Make a covenant with us, and we will serve you.
A HELE mai o Nahasa no ka Amona, a hoomoana ku e ia Iabesa-gileada: a olelo mai la na kanaka a pau o Iabesa ia Nahasa, E hana oe i kuikahi me makou, alaila e hookauwa aku makou nau.
2 And Nahash the Ammonite answered them, On this condition will I make a covenant with you, that I may thrust out all your right eyes, and lay it for a reproach on all Israel.
I mai la o Nahasa no ka Amona ia lakou, Penei ka'u e hana'i me oukou, e poalo aku au i na maka akau a pau o oukou, a kau aku ia i mea hoino maluna o ka Iseraela a pau.
3 And the elders of Jabesh said to him, Give us seven days’ respite, that we may send messengers to all the coasts of Israel: and then, if there be no man to save us, we will come out to you.
Olelo aku la na lunakahiko o Iabesa ia ia, E ahonui mai oe ia makou i na la ehiku, i hoouna aku ai makou i na elele ma na wahi a pau o ka Iseraela; ina paha aohe mea nana makou e hoopakele, alaila e hele makou i ou la.
4 Then came the messengers to Gibeah of Saul, and told the tidings in the ears of the people: and all the people lifted up their voices, and wept.
A hele mai na elele ma Gibea no Saula, a hai mai i na olelo maloko o ka pepeiao o na kanaka: a hookiekie ae la na kanaka a pau i ko lakou leo iluna, a uwe aku la.
5 And, behold, Saul came after the herd out of the field; and Saul said, What ails the people that they weep? And they told him the tidings of the men of Jabesh.
Aia hoi, hele mai la o Saula mahope o na bipi mai kula mai, ninau mai la o, Saula, No ke aha la i uwe ai na kanaka? A hai mai lakou ia ia i na mea no na kanaka o Iabesa.
6 And the Spirit of God came on Saul when he heard those tidings, and his anger was kindled greatly.
A hiki mai ka Uhane o ke Akua maluna o Saula, a wela nui kona inaina.
7 And he took a yoke of oxen, and hewed them in pieces, and sent them throughout all the coasts of Israel by the hands of messengers, saying, Whoever comes not forth after Saul and after Samuel, so shall it be done to his oxen. And the fear of the LORD fell on the people, and they came out with one consent.
Lawe ae la o Saula i mau bipikane kaulua, a okioki liilii ia laua, a hoouna aku la ma na lima o ka poe elele i na mokuna a pau o ka Iseraela, i ka i ana'ku, Pela e hanaia'i na bipi a ka mea hele ole mamuli o Saula a mamuli o Samuela. A kau mai la ka makau o Iehova i na kanaka, a hele mai lakou me ka manao lokahi.
8 And when he numbered them in Bezek, the children of Israel were three hundred thousand, and the men of Judah thirty thousand.
A helu aku la oia ia lakou ma Bezeka, akolu haneri tausani o na mamo a Iseraela, a he kanakolu tausani kanaka o ka Iuda.
9 And they said to the messengers that came, Thus shall you say to the men of Jabeshgilead, To morrow, by that time the sun be hot, you shall have help. And the messengers came and showed it to the men of Jabesh; and they were glad.
I aku la lakou i na elele i hele mai. Peneia oukou e olelo aku ai i na kanaka o Iabesa-gileada, Apopo a wela mai ka la, e hoopakeleia oukou. A hoi aku la na elele, a hoike aku la i na kanaka o Iabesa; olioli iho la lakou.
10 Therefore the men of Jabesh said, To morrow we will come out to you, and you shall do with us all that seems good to you.
No ia mea, i aku la na kanaka o Iabesa, Apopo e hele aku makou iwaho io oukou la, a e hana mai oukou ia makou i na mea a pau a oukou e makemake ai.
11 And it was so on the morrow, that Saul put the people in three companies; and they came into the middle of the host in the morning watch, and slew the Ammonites until the heat of the day: and it came to pass, that they which remained were scattered, so that two of them were not left together.
A i ka la apopo, hoonoho iho la o Saula i na kanaka i ekolu poe; a hele lakou iwaena konu o ka poe kaua i ka moku ana o ka pawa o ke ao, a pepehi iho la i ka Amora a hiki i ka wela o ka la: a o ke koena, hele liilii aku la lakou, aole elua kanaka ma kahi hookahi.
12 And the people said to Samuel, Who is he that said, Shall Saul reign over us? bring the men, that we may put them to death.
Ninau mai la na kanaka ia Samuela, Owai ka i olelo, E alii anei o Saula maluna o kakou? E lawe mai i ua poe kanaka la, a e pepehi makou ia lakou.
13 And Saul said, There shall not a man be put to death this day: for to day the LORD has worked salvation in Israel.
Olelo mai la o Saula, Aole e pepehiia kekahi kanaka i keia la: no ka mea, ua hana mai o Iehova i ke ola iloko o ka Iseraela i keia la.
14 Then said Samuel to the people, Come, and let us go to Gilgal, and renew the kingdom there.
Olelo aku la o Samuela i na kanaka, Ina kakou e hele ma Gilegala, a e hookupaa ilaila i ke aupuni.
15 And all the people went to Gilgal; and there they made Saul king before the LORD in Gilgal; and there they sacrificed sacrifices of peace offerings before the LORD; and there Saul and all the men of Israel rejoiced greatly.
A hele na kanaka a pau ma Gilegala; a hooalii aku la lakou ia Saula ilaila imua o Iehova ma Gilegala: a ilaila lakou i kaumaha aku ai i na mohai hoomalu imua o Iehova; a hauoli nui iho la o Saula, a me na kanaka a pau o ka Iseraela ilaila.
