< Kings I 22 >
1 And David departed thence, and escaped; and he comes to the cave of Odollam, and his brethren hear, and the house of his father, and they go down to him there.
Na ka haere atu a Rawiri i reira, a rere ana ki te ana o Aturama. A ka rongo ona tuakana, me te whare katoa o tona papa, na ka haere ki reira, ki a ia.
2 And there gathered to him every one that was in distress, and every one that was in debt, and every one that was troubled in mind; and he was a leader over them, and there were with him about four hundred men.
I huihui ano ki a ia nga tangata katoa e pehia ana e te aha, e te aha, me nga tangata i a ratou nei etahi taonga tarewa, me nga tangata katoa e mamae ana te ngakau: a ko ia hei rangatira mo ratou, tata tonu ki te wha rau nga tangata i piri ki a i a.
3 And David departed thence to Massephath of Moab, and said to the king of Moab, Let, I pray you, my father and my mother be with you, until I know what God will do to me.
Na ka haere atu a Rawiri i reira ki Mihipa o Moapa, ka mea ki te kingi Moapa, Tukua toku papa me toku whaea kia haere mai ki a koutou, kia mohio ra ano ahau ki ta te Atua e mea ai ki ahau.
4 And he persuaded the King of Moab, and they dwell with him continually, while David was in the hold.
Na ka kawea raua e ia ki te aroaro o te kingi o Moapa, a noho ana kaua ki a ia i nga ra katoa i noho ai a Rawiri i te pourewa
5 And Gad the prophet said to David, Dwell not in the hold: go, and you shall enter the land of Juda. So David went, and came and lived in the city of Saric.
Na ka mea a Kara poropiti ki a Rawiri, Kaua e noho ki te pourewa, whakatika, haere ki te whenua o hura. Na ka haere a Rawiri, a noho ana i te nehenehe i Harete
6 And Saul heard that David was discovered, and his men with him: now Saul lived in the hill below the field that is in Rama, and his spear [was] in his hand, and all his servants stood near him.
A, no te rongonga o Haora kua kitea a Rawiri ratou ko ona hoa, na i Kipea a Haora e noho ana, i raro i tetahi rakau, i Rama, me tana tao i tona ringa, me te tu ana tangata katoa i tona taha;
7 And Saul said to his servants that stood by him, Hear now, you sons of Benjamin, will the son of Jessae indeed give all of you fields and vineyards, and will he make you all captains of hundreds and captains of thousands?
Ka mea a Haora ki ana tangata e tu ana i tona taha, Whakarongo mai ki ahau, e nga Pinemini; e homai ranei e te tama a Hehe he mara ki a koutou katoa, he kari waina, e meinga ranei koutou katoa e ia hei rangatira mano, hei rangatira rau;
8 That you are conspiring against me, and there is no one that informs me, whereas my son has made a covenant with the son of Jessae, and there is no one of you that is sorry for me, or informs me, that my son has stirred up my servant against me for an enemy, as [it is] this day?
I whakatenetene mai ai koutou ki ahau; a kahore tetahi hei whakaatu ki ahau i te whakaritenga kawenata a taku tama raua ko te tama a Hehe: kahore tetahi o koutou e pouri moku, e whaki ranei ki ahau, na taku tama i whakatutehu taku tangata ki ahau, kia whanga puku, penei me tenei inaianei?
9 And Doec the Syrian who was over the mules of Saul answered and said, I saw the son of Jessae as he came to Nomba to Abimelech son of Achitob the priest.
Katahi ka oho mai ko Roeke Eromi, he kaitohutohu no nga tangata a Haora, ka mea, I kite ahau i te tama a Hehe e haere ana ki Nopo, ki a Ahimereke tama a Ahitupu.
10 And [the priest] enquired of God for him, and gave him provision, and gave him the sword of Goliath the Philistine.
Na uia ana e tera he tikanga mana i a Ihowa; i hoatu ano e ia he o mona; ko te hoari hoki a Koriata Pirihitini i hoatu ano e ia ki a ia.
11 And the king sent to call Abimelech son of Achitob and all his father's sons, the priests that were in Nomba; and they all came to the king.
Katahi te kingi ka unga tangata atu hei karanga i te tohunga, i a Ahimereke tama a Ahitupu ratou ko te whare katoa o tona papa, i nga tohunga e noho ana i Nopo, a ka haere katoa mai ratou ki te kingi.
12 And Saul said, Hear now, you son of Achitob. And he said, Behold! I [am here], speak, [my] lord.
Na ka mea a Haora, Whakarongo mai, e te tama a Ahitupu. A ka mea tera, Tenei ahau, e toku ariki.
13 And Saul said to him, Why have you and the son of Jessae conspired against me, that you should give him bread and a sword, and should enquire of God for him, to raise him up against me as an enemy, as [he is] this day?
Ano ra ko Haora ki a ia, He aha korua ko te tama a Hehe i whakatenetene mai ai ki ahau, a hoatu ana e koe he taro mana, he hoari, uia ana ano e koe he tikanga mana i te Atua, kia whakatika mai ai ia ki ahau whanga ai; koia ano tenei inaianei?
14 And he answered the king, and said, And who [is] there among all your servants faithful as David, and [he is] a son-in-law of the king, and [he is] executor of all your commands, and [is] honorable in your house?
Na ka utu a Ahimereke ki te kingi, ka mea, Ha, ko wai o au tangata katoa hei rite mo Rawiri te pono? ko te hunaonga hoki ia a te kingi, e haere ana i tau ngare, e whakahonoretia ana hoki i roto i tou whare?
15 Have I begun today to enquire of God for him? By no means: let not the king bring a charge against his servant, and against you whole of my father's house; for your servant knew not in all these matters anything great or small.
No tenei ra koia i timata ai ahau ki te ui mea mana i te Atua? kahore rapea! kaua tetahi mea e whakairia mai e te kingi ki tana pononga, ki tetahi ranei o te whare o toku papa: kahore hoki tau pononga i mohio ki tetahi aha o tenei, ahakoa iti, a hakoa rahi.
16 And king Saul said, You shall surely die, Abimelech, you, and all your father's house.
Na ka mea te kingi, Ko te mate anake mou, e Ahimereke, mou, mo te whare katoa ano o tou papa.
17 And the king said to the footmen that attended on him, Draw near and kill the priests of the Lord, because their hand [is] with David, and because they knew that he fled, and they did not inform me. But the servants of the king would not lift their hands to fall upon the priest of the Lord.
Na ka mea te kingi ki nga kaitiaki e tu ana i tona taha, Tahuri atu, whakamatea nga tohunga a Ihowa; he mea ko o ratou ringa ano kei a Rawiri; i mohio hoki ratou e rere ana ia, a kihai i whakaatu mai ki ahau. Otiia kihai i pai nga tangata a te k ingi kia totoro atu o ratou ringa, kia rere ki runga ki nga tohunga a Ihowa.
18 And the king said to Doec, Turn you, and fall upon the priests: and Doec the Syrian turned, and killed the priests of the Lord in that day, three hundred and five men, all wearing an ephod.
Na ka mea te kingi ki a Roeke, Tahuri atu, e rere ki runga ki nga tohunga. Na tahuri ana a Roeke, Eromi, a rere ana ki runga ki nga tohunga, a e waru tekau ma rima nga tangata i patua e ia i taua ra, he hunga kakahu i te epora rinena.
19 And he struck Nomba the city of the priest with the edge of the sword, both man, and woman, infant and suckling, and calf, and ox, and sheep.
I patua ano hoki e ia a Nopo, te pa o nga tohunga, ki te mata o te hoari, te tane, te wahine, nga tamariki, nga mea ngote u, nga kau, nga kaihe, nga hipi, ki te mata o te hoari.
20 And one son of Abimelech son of Achitob escapes, and his name [was] Abiathar, and he fled after David.
Na i mawhiti tetahi o nga tama a Ahimereke tama a Ahitupu, tona ingoa ko Apiatara; a rere ana ki te whai i a Rawiri.
21 And Abiathar told David that Saul had slain all the priests of the Lord.
A na Apiatara i korero ki a Rawiri ta Haora patunga i nga tohunga a Ihowa.
22 And David said to Abiathar, I knew it in that day, that Doec the Syrian would surely tell Saul: I am guilty of the death of the house of your father.
Na ka mea a Rawiri ki a Apiatara, I mohio ano ahau i taua ra i a Roeke Eromi i kona, ka whakaaturia e ia ki a Haora. Naku i mate ai nga tangata katoa o te whare o tou papa.
23 Dwell with me; fear not, for wherever I shall seek a place [of safety] for my life, I will also seek a place for your life, for you are safely guarded [while] with me.
E noho koe ki ahau, kaua e wehi; ko te tangata hoki e whai ana i te mate moku, e whai ana i te mate mou: na kei ahau nei koe, ka tiakina koe.
