Kings I 14
1 And when a certain day arrived, Jonathan the son of Saul said to the young man that bore his armor, Come, and let us go over to Messab of the Philistines that is on the other side yonder; but he told not his father.
Na i tetahi o aua ra ka mea a Honatana, tama a Haora, ki te taitama e mau ana i ana patu, Haere mai, taua ka whiti atu ki nga hoia pupuri a nga Pirihitini i tawahi ra. Otiia kihai i korerotia e ia ki tona papa.
2 And Saul sat on the top of the hill under the pomegranate tree that is in Magdon, and there were with him about six hundred men.
A i tera pito o Kipea a Haora e noho ana i raro i tetahi pamekaranete i Mikirono: tata tonu ana tangata ki te ono nga rau;
3 And Achia son of Achitob, the brother of Jochabed the son of Phinees, the son of Heli, [was] the priest of God in Selom wearing an ephod: and the people knew not that Jonathan was gone.
Me Ahia ano hoki, tama a Ahitupu, tuakana o Ikaporo, tama a Pinehaha, tama a Eri tohunga a Ihowa i Hiro, ko te kaikakahu ia o te epora. Na kihai te iwi i mohio kua riro a Honatana.
4 And in the midst of the passage whereby Jonathan sought to pass over to the encampment of the Philistines, there was both a sharp rock on this side, and a sharp rock on the other side: the name of the one [was] Bases, and the name of the other Senna.
Na, i waenga o nga whitinga i whai ai a Honatana kia whiti atu ki nga hoia pupuri a nga Pirihitini, tera tetahi pari kohatu i tetahi taha, he pari kohatu hoki i tetahi taha: ko te ingoa o tetahi ko Potete, ko te ingoa o tetahi ko Henehe.
5 The one way [was] northward to one coming to Machmas, and the other way [was] southward to one coming to Gabae.
I te raki tetahi pari e tu ana, i te ritenga atu o Mikimaha; i te tonga tetahi, i te ritenga atu o Kipea.
6 And Jonathan said to the young man that bore his armor, Come, let us go over to Messab of these uncircumcised, if [perhaps] the Lord may do something for us; for the Lord is not straitened to save by many or by few.
Na ka mea a Honatana ki te taitama e mau ana i ana patu, Haere mai, taua ka haere ki nga hoia o enei kokotikore: tera pea a Ihowa e mahi mo taua: kahore he aha ki a Ihowa kia riro ma te tokomaha, ma te tokoiti ranei e whakaora.
7 And his armor-bearer said to him, Do all that your heart inclines toward: behold, I [am] with you, my heart [is] as your heart.
Ano ra ko te kaimau o ana patu ki a ia, Meatia nga mea katoa e paingia ana e tou ngakau: anga atu, tenei ahau hei hoa mou, hei pera me ta tou ngakau e pai ai.
8 And Jonathan said, Behold, we will go over to the men, and will come down suddenly upon them.
Ano ra ko Honatana, Nana, me haere atu taua ki nga tangata ra, me whakaputa atu hoki ki a ratou.
9 If they should say thus to us, Stand aloof there until we shall send you word; then we will stand still by ourselves, and will not go up against them.
Ki te penei mai ta ratou ki a taua, Tu marie, kia tae atu ra ano matou ki a korua; na me tu taua i to taua turanga, e kore ano e piki ki a ratou.
10 [But] if they should say thus to us, Come up to us; then will we go up, for the Lord has delivered them into our hands; this [shall be] a sign to us.
Engari ki te penei ta ratou ki, Piki ake ki a matou, ko reira taua piki atu ai; no te mea kua homai ratou e Ihowa ki o taua ringa: a ko tenei hei tohu ki a taua.
11 And they both went in to Messab of the Philistines; and the Philistines said, Behold, the Hebrews come forth out of their Caves, where they had hidden themselves.
Na ka puta raua tokorua ki nga hoia pupuri a nga Pirihitini: a ka mea nga Pirihitini, Nana, ko nga Hiperu e puta mai ana i roto i nga rua i piri ai ratou.
12 And the men of Messab answered Jonathan and his armor-bearer, and said, Come up to us, and we will show you a thing: and Jonathan said to his armor-bearer, Come up after me, for the Lord has delivered them into the hands of Israel.
Na ka oho nga hoia pupuri ki a Honatana raua ko tana kaimau patu, ka mea, Piki ake ki a matou kia whakakitea ai tetahi mea e matou ki a korua. Na ka mea a Honatana ki te kaimau o ana patu, Piki ake i muri i ahau; kua homai hoki ratou e Ihowa ki te ringa o Iharaira.
13 And Jonathan went up on his hands and feet, and his armor-bearer with him; and they looked on the face of Jonathan, and he struck them, and his armor-bearer did strike [them] after him.
Na ka piki atu a Honatana, he mea ngoki atu, me tana kaimau patu i muri i a ia: na hinga ana ratou i a Honatana, me te patu ano te kaimau patu i muri i a ia.
14 And the first slaughter which Jonathan and his armor-bearer effected was twenty men, with darts and slings, and pebbles of the field.
Na, ko te patunga tuatahi i patu ai a Honatana raua ko tana kaimau patu, tata tonu ki te rua tekau nga tangata: ko te nui o taua wahi, me te mea kei te hawhe eka whenua.
15 And there was dismay in the camp, and in the field; and all the people in Messab, and the spoilers were amazed; and they would not act, and the land was terror-struck, and there was dismay from the lord.
Na ka pa te wiri ki te puni, ki era i te parae, ki te iwi katoa ano hoki: ko nga hoia, me nga kaipahua, i wiri ano hoki ratou; i ru ano te whenua: nui rawa te wiri.
16 And the watchmen of Saul saw in Gabaa of Benjamin, and, behold, the army was thrown into confusion on every side.
A ka titiro nga tutei a Haora i Kipea o Pineamine; na, kua papahoro te ope, me te haere ano ratou, kopiko atu, kopiko mai.
17 And Saul said to the people with him, Number yourselves now, and see who has gone out from you: and they numbered themselves, and behold, Jonathan and his armor-bearer were not found.
Katahi a Haora ka mea ki te iwi i reira, i a ia, Tatauria tatou kia kitea ko wai kua riro. A, no ka tatauria e ratou, na kahore a Honatana raua ko tana kaimau patu i reira.
18 And Saul said to Achia, Bring the ephod; for he wore the ephod in that day before Israel.
Na ka mea a Haora ki a Ahia, Kawea mai te aaka a te Atua. I nga tama hoki a Iharaira te aaka a te Atua i taua wa.
19 And it came to pass while Saul was speaking to the priest, that the sound in the camp of the Philistines continued to increase greatly; and Saul said to the priest, Withdraw your hands.
A, i a Haora e korero ana ki te tohunga, ka tino nui haere te ngangau i te puni o nga Pirihitini: na ka ki a Haora ki te tohunga, Pepeke ake tou ringa.
20 And Saul went up and all the people that were with him, and they come to the battle: and, behold, [every] man's sword was against his neighbor, a very great confusion.
Na ka huihui a Haora ratou ko tona nuinga, a haere ana ki te whawhai: na e anga mai ana tera te hoari a tetahi, a tetahi, ki tona hoa, ki tona hoa: nui atu te pokaikaha.
21 And the servants who had been before with the Philistines, who had gone up to the army, turned themselves also to be with the Israelites who were with Saul and Jonathan.
Na ko nga Hiperu i roto i nga Pirihitini i mua atu, i haere tahi atu nei me ratou ki te puni i te whenua i tetahi taha, i tetahi taha; na huri ana ano hoki ratou ki te taha i a Iharaira, ki nga hoa o Haora raua ko Honatana.
22 And all the Israelites who were hidden in mount Ephraim heard also that the Philistines fled; and they also gather themselves after them to battle: and the Lord saved Israel in that day; and the war passed through Bamoth; and all the people with Saul were about ten thousand men.
Na pera ano nga tangata katoa o Iharaira i piri nei ki te whenua pukepuke o Eparaima, i to ratou rongonga kua whati nga Pirihitini, na kei te whai haere ano hoki i a ratou i roto i te pakanga.
23 And the battle extended itself to every city in the mount Ephraim.
Heoi whakaorangia ana a Iharaira, i taua ra e Ihowa: a puta ke ana te whawhai ki Peteawene.
24 And Saul committed a great trespass of ignorance in that day, and he lays a curse on the people, saying, Cursed [is] the man who shall eat bread before the evening; so I will avenge myself on my enemy: and none of the people tasted bread, though all the land was dining.
A i hemanawa nga tangata o Iharaira i taua ra: i whakaoati hoki a Haora i te iwi, i mea, Ki te kai tetahi tangata i te kai a ahiahi noa, ka kanga ia, kia whai utu ra ano ahau i oku hoariri. Na reira kihai tetahi o te iwi i anga ki te kai.
25 And Jaal was a wood abounding in swarms of bees on the face of the ground.
Na ko te haerenga o nga tangata katoa o te whenua ki tetahi ngahere; a he honi kei runga i te whenua.
26 And the people went into the place of the bees, and, behold, they continued speaking; and, behold, there was none that put his hand to his mouth, for the people feared the oath of the Lord.
A, no te taenga o te iwi ki te ngahere, na e turuturu iho ana te honi; otiia kihai i pa te ringa o tetahi tangata ki tona waha; i wehi hoki te iwi i te oati.
27 And Jonathan had not heard when his father adjured the people; and he reached forth the end of the staff that was in his hand, an dipped it into the honeycomb, and returned his hand to his mouth, and his eyes recovered their sight.
Ko Honatana ia kihai i rongo i te whakaoati a tona papa i te iwi: na ka kokiritia e ia te pito o te tokotoko i tona ringa, a toua ana ki roto ki te honikoma, whakahokia ana e ia tona ringa ki tona waha, a ka marama ona kanohi.
28 And one of the people answered and said, Your father solemnly adjured the people, saying, Cursed [is] the man who shall eat bread today. And the people were very faint,
Katahi ka oho tetahi o te iwi, a ka mea, I tino whakaoatitia te iwi e tou papa; i mea ia, Kia kanga te tangata e kai ana i tetahi kai aianei; a e hemo ana te iwi.
29 and Jonathan knew it, and said, My father has destroyed the land: see how my eyes have received sight [now] that I have tasted a little of this honey.
Katahi a Honatana ka mea, Raru ana te whenua nei i toku papa: titiro hoki, kua marama oku kanohi, noku i kai i tetahi wahi iti o te honi nei.
30 Surely if the people had this day eaten freely of the spoils of their enemies which they found, the slaughter among the Philistines would have been greater.
Tera noa ake mehemea pea i kai noa atu te iwi inaianei i nga mea i pahuatia mai i o ratou hoariri i tupono atu ai ratou? ko tenei kahore i rahi te parekura o nga Pirihitini.
31 And on that day he struck some of the Philistines in Machmas; and the people were very weary.
Na patua iho e ratou nga Pirihitini i taua rangi i Mikimaha atu a tae noa ki Aitarono: a e tino hemo ana te iwi.
32 And the people turned to the spoil; and the people took flocks, and herds, and calves, and killed them on the ground, and the people ate with the blood.
Na ko te rerenga atu o te iwi ki nga taonga; ka mau ki nga hipi, ki nga kau, ki nga kuao kau, patua iho ki te whenua, kainga tahitia ana e te iwi me nga toto.
33 And it was reported to Saul, saying, The people have sinned against the Lord, eating with the blood: and Saul said, Out of Getthaim roll a great stone to me hither.
Katahi ka korerotia ki a Haora ka meatia, Nana, kua hara te iwi ki a Ihowa, e kainga tahitia ana ta ratou kai me nga toto. Na ka mea ia, He mahi hianga ta koutou: hurihia mai he kohatu nui ki ahau aianei.
34 And Saul said, Disperse yourselves among the people, and tell them to bring hither every one his calf, and every one his sheep: and let them kill it on this [stone] and sin not against the Lord in eating with the blood: and the people brought each one that which was in his hand, and they killed [them] there.
Ka mea ano a Haora, Tomotomo atu koutou ki roto ki te iwi mea atu hoki ki a ratou, Kawea mai ki ahau, e tera, e tera, tana kau, tana hipi, ka patu ai ki konei hei kai ma koutou; kaua hoki e hara ki a Ihowa, e kai i te toto. Katahi ka kawea mai e te iwi katoa i taua po te kau a tena, a tena, a patua iho ana ki reira.
35 And Saul built an altar there to the Lord: this was the first altar that Saul built to the Lord.
Na ka hanga e Haora he aata ma Ihowa. Koia tenei ko te aata tuatahi i hanga e ia ma Ihowa.
36 And Saul said, Let us go down after the Philistines this night, and let us plunder among them till the day break, and let us not leave a man among them. And they said, Do all that is good in your sight: and the priest said, let us draw near hither to God.
Na ka mea a Haora, Tatou ka haere ki raro, ka whai i nga Pirihitini i te po, ka pahua i a ratou a marama noa te ata; kaua ano e waiho tetahi tangata o ratou. Na ka mea ratou, Meatia ra nga mea katoa e pai ana ki tou whakaaro. Na ka mea ake te to hunga, Kia whakatata tatou ki a Ihowa.
37 And Saul enquired of God, If I go down after the Philistines, will you deliver them into the hands of Israel? And he answered him not in that day.
Na ka tono whakaaro a Haora i te Atua, Me haere ranei ahau ki raro, ki te whai i nga Pirihitini? e homai ranei ratou e koe ki te ringa o Iharaira? Otiia kahore he kupu i whakahokia ki a ia i taua ra.
38 And Saul said, Bring hither all the chiefs of Israel, and know and see by whom this sin has been committed this day.
Na ka mea a Haora, Neke mai, e nga rangatira katoa o te iwi: kia mohio ai, kia kite ai koutou no hea tenei hara i tenei ra.
39 For as the Lord lives who has saved Israel, if answer should be against my son Jonathan, he shall surely die. And there was no one that answered out of all the people.
Ta te mea, e ora ana a Ihowa e whakaora nei i a Iharaira, ahakoa no taku tama, no Honatana, ka mate ia, mate rawa. Otiia kahore he tangata o te iwi katoa hei whakahoki kupu ki a ia.
40 And he said to all the men of Israel, You shall be under subjection, and I an Jonathan my son will be under subjection: and the people said to Saul, Do that which is good in your sight.
Katahi ia ka mea ki a Iharaira katoa, Hei tetahi taha koutou, hei tetahi taha maua ko taku tama, ko Honatana. Na ka mea te iwi ki a Haora, Meatia ra te mea e pai ana ki tou whakaaro.
41 And Saul said, O Lord God of Israel, why have you not answered your servant this day? [is] the iniquity in me, or in Jonathan my son? Lord God of Israel, give clear [manifestations]; and if [the lot] should declare this, give, I pray you, to your people of Israel, give, I pray, holiness. And Jonathan and Saul are taken, and the people escaped.
Katahi a Haora ka mea ki a Ihowa, ki te Atua o Iharaira, Kia tika te homaitanga o te rota. Na ka mau ko Honatana raua ko Haora; i mawhiti hoki te iwi.
42 And Saul said, Cast [lots] between me and my son Jonathan: whoever the Lord shall cause to be taken by lot, let him die: and the people said to Saul, This thing is not [to be done]: and Saul prevailed against the people, and they cast [lots] between him and Jonathan his son, and Jonathan is taken by lot.
Na ka mea a Haora, maka te rota mo maua ko taku tama, ko Honatana. Na ka mau ko Honatana.
43 And Saul said to Jonathan, Tell me what you have done: and Jonathan told him, and said, I did indeed taste a little honey, with the end of my staff that was in my hand, and, behold! I [am to] die.
Katahi ka mea a Haora ki a Honatana, Whakaaturia mai ki ahau, i aha koe. Katahi ka whakaaturia e Honatana ki a ia, ka mea, He tika i whakamatau kau atu ahau i tetahi wahi iti o te honi ki te pito o te tokotoko i toku ringa; na, ka mate nei ahau.
44 And Saul said to him, God do so to me, and more also, you shall surely die today.
Ano ra ko Haora, Kia meatia tenei e te Atua, tera atu ano hoki; ka mate rawa hoki koe, e Honatana.
45 And the people said to Saul, Shall he that has wrought this great salvation in Israel be put to death this day? [As] the Lord lives, there shall not fall to the ground one of the hairs of his head; for the people of God have wrought successfully this day. And the people prayed for Jonathan in that day, and he died not.
Na ka mea te iwi ki a Haora, Kia mate a Honatana nana nei tenei whakaoranga nui i roto i a Iharaira? Kahore ra hoki. E ora ana a Ihowa, e kore e taka tetahi makawe o tona matenga ki te whenua; i te mahi tahi nei hoki ia me te Atua i tenei ra. He oi whakaorangia ana a Honatana e te iwi, a kihai i mate.
46 And Saul went up from following the Philistines; and the Philistines departed to their place.
Katahi ka hoki a Haora i te whai i nga Pirihitini; a haere ana nga Pirihitini ki to ratou na wahi.
47 And Saul received the kingdom, by lot he inherits the office [of ruling] over Israel: and he fought against all his enemies round about, against Moab, and against the children of Ammon, and against the children of Edom, and against Baethaeor, and against the king of Suba, and against the Philistines: wherever he turned, he was victorious.
A, no ka riro i a Haora te kingitanga o Iharaira, ka whawhai ia ki ona hoariri katoa i tetahi taha, i tetahi taha, ki a Moapa, ki nga tama a Amona, ki a Eroma, ki nga kingi ano o Topa, ki nga Pirihitini, a he ana ratou i a ia i nga wahi katoa i tahuri ai ia.
48 And he wrought valiantly, and struck Amalec, and rescued Israel out of the hand of them that trampled on him.
A i puta tona toa, a patua ana nga Amareki, a ora ake i a ia a Iharaira i te ringa o ona kaipahua.
49 And the sons of Saul were Jonathan, and Jessiu, and Melchisa: and [these were] the names of his two daughters, the name of the firstborn Merob, and the name of the second Melchol.
Na ko nga tama a Haora, ko Honatana, ko Ihui, ko Marikihua; a, ko nga ingoa enei o ana tamahine tokorua, ko te ingoa o te matamua ko Merapa, ko te ingoa o to muri ko Mikara.
50 And the name of his wife was Achinoom, the daughter of Achimaa: and the name of his captain of the host was Abenner, the son of Ner, son of a kinsman of Saul.
A, ko te ingoa o te wahine a Haora ko Ahinoama, he tamahine na Ahimaata: ko te ingoa hoki o te rangatira o tana ope ko Apanere, tama a Nere matua keke o Haora.
51 And Kis [was] the father of Saul, and Ner, the father of Abenezer, [was] son of Jamin, son of Abiel.
Ko Kihi hoki te papa o Haora; a he tama na Apiere a Nere papa o Apanere.
52 And the war was vehement against the Philistines all the days of Saul; and when Saul saw any mighty man, and any valiant man, then he took them to himself.
A he nui te whawhai ki nga Pirihitini i nga ra katoa o Haora; a ka kite a Haora i tetahi marohirohi, i tetahi maia, na ka tangohia e ia mana.
