2 Samuel 17
1 Moreover Ahithophel said unto Absalom, Let me now choose out twelve thousand men, and I will arise and pursue after David this night:
OLELO aku la o Ahitopela ia Abesaloma, He pono na'u e wae aku ano i na kanaka he umikumamalua tausani, a e ku ae au a e hahai aku mahope o Davida i neia po.
2 And I will come upon him while he is weary and weak handed, and will make him afraid: and all the people that are with him shall flee; and I will smite the king only:
A e loaa aku ia'u ia oi nawaliwali ia a me ke kanaka ole, a e hooweliweli aku au ia ia; a e holo aku na kanaka a pau me ia; a o ke alii wale no ka'u e pepehi aku ai.
3 And I will bring back all the people unto thee: the man whom thou seekest is as if all returned: so all the people shall be in peace.
A e hoihoi mai nei au i na kanaka a pau iou nei; o ke kanaka au e imi nei, na like ia me ka hoi hou ana mai o lakou a pau: pela e malu ai na kanaka a pau.
4 And the saying pleased Absalom well, and all the elders of Israel.
He pono keia olelo i ka manao o Abesaloma a me na lunakahiko a pau o ka Iseraela.
5 Then said Absalom, Call now Hushai the Archite also, and let us hear likewise what he saith.
Alaila, i mai la o Abesaloma, E kahea aku hoi ia Husai no Areki; e lohe hoi kakou i kana olelo.
6 And when Hushai was come to Absalom, Absalom spake unto him, saying, Ahithophel hath spoken after this manner: shall we do after his saying? if not; speak thou.
A hiki mai o Husai io Abesaloma la, olelo mai la o Abesaloma ia ia, i mai la, Pela ka Ahitopela i olelo mai ai: e hana anei kakou e like me kana olelo? A i ole, e olelo mai hoi oe.
7 And Hushai said unto Absalom, The counsel that Ahithophel hath given is not good at this time.
I aku la o Husai ia Abesaloma, O ka oleloao a Ahitopela ana i olelo mai ai, aohe pono ia i neia manawa.
8 For, said Hushai, thou knowest thy father and his men, that they be mighty men, and they be chafed in their minds, as a bear robbed of her whelps in the field: and thy father is a man of war, and will not lodge with the people.
No ka mea, wahi a Husai, ua ike oe i kou makuakane a me na kanaka ona, he poe kanaka ikaika lakou, a ua ukiuki ko lakou naau me he bea la i kailiia aku kana ohana keiki ma ke kula; he kanaka kaua no hoi kou makuakane, aole ia e moe me na kanaka.
9 Behold, he is hid now in some pit, or in some other place: and it will come to pass, when some of them be overthrown at the first, that whosoever heareth it will say, There is a slaughter among the people that follow Absalom.
Aia no ia ua pee ma kekahi lua, i kekahi wahi paha: a i ka haule mua ana o kekahi mau mea o lakou, e olelo auanei ka poe lohe, He lukuia iwaena o ka poe hahai ia Abesaloma;
10 And he also that is valiant, whose heart is as the heart of a lion, shall utterly melt: for all Israel knoweth that thy father is a mighty man, and they which be with him are valiant men.
A o ke koa, ka mea naau e like me ka naau o ka liona, e hehee loa ia: no ka mea, ua ike ka Iseraela a pau, he kanaka koa kou makuakane, a he poe kanaka ikaika hoi ka poe me ia.
11 Therefore I counsel that all Israel be generally gathered unto thee, from Dan even to Beer–sheba, as the sand that is by the sea for multitude; and that thou go to battle in thine own person.
Nolaila, eia kuu manao ke hai aku nei, I hoakoakoaia mai ka Iseraela a pau iou nei, mai Dana a hiki i Beeraseba, e like me ke one o ke kai ka nui loa; a e hele oe iho no i ke kaua.
12 So shall we come upon him in some place where he shall be found, and we will light upon him as the dew falleth on the ground: and of him and of all the men that are with him there shall not be left so much as one.
Pela kakou e hiki aku ai io na la i kahi e loaa aku ai ia ia, a e kau aku kakou maluna ona, e like me ka hau e kau mai maluna o ka honua: a oia, a o ka poe a pau me ia, aole loa e koe kekahi o lakou.
13 Moreover, if he be gotten into a city, then shall all Israel bring ropes to that city, and we will draw it into the river, until there be not one small stone found there.
A ina paha ua komo aku ia iloko o kekahi kulanakauhale, alaila e lawe aku ka Iseraela a pau i na kaula i ua kulanakauhale la, a e kauo aku kakou ia wahi maloko o ka muliwai, a koe ole ma ia wahi kekahi pohaku liilii.
14 And Absalom and all the men of Israel said, The counsel of Hushai the Archite is better than the counsel of Ahithophel. for Yhwh had appointed to defeat the good counsel of Ahithophel, to the intent that Yhwh might bring evil upon Absalom.
I aku la o Abesaloma a me na kanaka a pau o ka Iseraela, ua oi aku ka pono o ka oleloao a Husai no Areki, mamua o ka oleloao a Ahitopela. No ka mea, ua manao mai o Iehova e hoolilo i ka oleloao akamai a Ahitopela i mea ole, i mea e hooili mai ai o Iehova i ka ino maluna o Abesaloma.
15 Then said Hushai unto Zadok and to Abiathar the priests, Thus and thus did Ahithophel counsel Absalom and the elders of Israel; and thus and thus have I counselled.
Alaila, olelo aku la o Husai ia Zadoka laua o Abiatara na kahuna, Pela a penei i oleloao aku ai o Ahitopela ia Abesaloma a me na lunakahiko o ka Iseraela; pela a penei hoi au i oleloao aku ai.
16 Now therefore send quickly, and tell David, saying, Lodge not this night in the plains of the wilderness, but speedily pass over; lest the king be swallowed up, and all the people that are with him.
Nolaila, e hoouna koke aku olua e hai ia Davida, i ka i ana aku, Mai moe oe i neia po ma na papu o ka waonahele, e hele koke oe ma kela aoao, o pau loa ke alii a me na kanaka me ia i ke aleia.
17 Now Jonathan and Ahimaaz stayed by En–rogel; for they might not be seen to come into the city: and a wench went and told them; and they went and told king David.
A ua noho o Ionatana laua o Ahimaaza ma Enerogela, no ka mea, aole pono e ikeia laua ke komo iloko o ke kulanakauhale, a hele aku la kekahi kauwawahine, a hai aku la ia laua: hele aku la hoi laua, a hai aku la i ke alii ia Davida.
18 Nevertheless a lad saw them, and told Absalom: but they went both of them away quickly, and came to a man’s house in Bahurim, which had a well in his court; whither they went down.
Aka, ua ike no kekahi keiki ia laua, a hai aku la ia Abesaloma: aka, hele koke aku la laua a hiki aku la i ka hale o kekahi kanaka i Bahurima, a he luawai maloko o ka pahale ona, ilaila laua i iho ai.
19 And the woman took and spread a covering over the well’s mouth, and spread ground wheat thereon; and the thing was not known.
Lalau aku la ka wahine i ka mea uhi, hohola iho la maluna o ka waha o ka luawai, a halii iho la i ka palaoa maluna iho: a ua ike ole ia ua mea la.
20 And when Absalom’s servants came to the woman to the house, they said, Where is Ahimaaz and Jonathan? And the woman said unto them, They be gone over the brook of water. And when they had sought and could not find them, they returned to Jerusalem.
A hiki mai na kauwa a Abesaloma i ua wahine la ma ka hale, ninau mai la lakou, Auhea o Ahimaaza laua o Ionatana? I aku la ka wahine ia lakou, ua hala aku la laua ma kela aoao o ke kahawai. Imi aku la lakou, aole hoi i loaa, alaila hoi hou mai la lakou i Ierusalema.
21 And it came to pass, after they were departed, that they came up out of the well, and went and told king David, and said unto David, Arise, and pass quickly over the water: for thus hath Ahithophel counselled against you.
A hala aku la lakou, pii mai la laua mailoko mai o ka luawai, hele aku la, a hai aku la i ke alii ia Davida. I aku la ia Davida, Eku ae, e holo koke ma kela aoao o ka wai; no ka mea, penei ka Ahitopela i olelo ku e ai ia oukou.
22 Then David arose, and all the people that were with him, and they passed over Jordan: by the morning light there lacked not one of them that was not gone over Jordan.
Alaila ku ae la o Davida a me na kanaka a pau me ia, a hele aku la ma kela aoao o Ioredane: a i ka wanaao, aole i koe kekahi o lakou i ka hele ole ma kela aoao o Ioredane.
23 And when Ahithophel saw that his counsel was not followed, he saddled his donkey, and arose, and gat him home to his house, to his city, and put his household in order, and hanged himself, and died, and was buried in the sepulchre of his father.
A ike aku la o Ahitopela, aole i hanaia e like me kana oleloao, hoee aku la ia i ka noho maluna o kona hoki, ku ae la ia, hoi hou aku la ia i kona wahi, i kona hale iho, i kona kulanakauhale, a kauoha aku la no ko ka hale ona, a kaawe iho la ia ia iho, a make; a ua kanuia oia ma ka halekupapau o kona makuakane.
24 Then David came to Mahanaim. And Absalom passed over Jordan, he and all the men of Israel with him.
Alaila hele aku la o Davida i Mahanaima: a hele aku la hoi o Abesaloma ma kela aoao o Ioredane, oia a me na kanaka a pau o ka Iseraela me ia.
25 And Absalom made Amasa captain of the army instead of Joab: which Amasa was a man’s son, whose name was Ithra an Israelite, that went in to Abigail the daughter of Nahash, sister to Zeruiah Joab’s mother.
Hoonoho aku la o Abesaloma ia Amasa ma ko Ioaba wahi maluna o ka poe kaua: a o ua Amasa la, he keiki ia na kekahi kanaka no ka Iseraela, o Itera ka inoa, ka mea i komo aku iloko io Abigala la ke kaikamahine a Nahasa, a o ke kaikaina o Zeruia o ka makuwahine o Ioaba.
26 So Israel and Absalom pitched in the land of Gilead.
Hoomoana iho la ka Iseraela me Abesaloma ma ka aina o Gileada.
27 And it came to pass, when David was come to Mahanaim, that Shobi the son of Nahash of Rabbah of the children of Ammon, and Machir the son of Ammiel of Lo–debar, and Barzillai the Gileadite of Rogelim,
A hiki aku la o Davida i Mahanaima, ilaila o Sobi ke keiki a Nahasa no Raba o na mamo a Amona, a o Makira ke keiki a Amiela no Lodebara, a o Barezilai no Rogelima ma Gileada,
28 Brought beds, and basons, and earthen vessels, and wheat, and barley, and flour, and parched grain, and beans, and lentiles, and parched pulse,
Lawe mai la lakou i na moe a me na kiaha a me na ipu lepo a me na hua palaoa a me ka bale a me ka palaoa, a me ka palaoa papaa, a me ka papapa maka, a me ka pi, a me ka papapa papaa;
29 And honey, and butter, and sheep, and cheese of kine, for David, and for the people that were with him, to eat: for they said, The people is hungry, and weary, and thirsty, in the wilderness.
A me ka meli, a me ka bata, a mo na hipa, a me ka waiubipipaa, na Davida a na ka poe kanaka me ia e ai ai: no ka mea, olelo ae la lakou, Ua pololi na kanaka, ua luhi a me ka makewai ma ka waonahele.
