< 1 Samuel 21 >

1 And David came to Nob to Achimelech the priest; and Achimelech hastened trembling to meet David, and said unto him, Why art thou alone, and no man is with thee?
A HELE aku la o Davida ma Noba io Ahimeleka la ke kahuna: a makau iho la o Ahimeleka i ka halawai ana me Davida, i aku la ia ia, No ke aha la o oe wale no, aohe kanaka me oe.
2 And David said unto Achimelech the priest, The king commanded me a business, and said unto me, Let not any man know the least of the business concerning which I send thee, and which I have commanded thee. And the young men have I appointed to such and such a place.
I mai la o Davida ia Ahimeleka i ke kahuna, Ua kauoha mai ke alii ia'u i kekahi mea, a ua i mai ia'u, Mai hoike iki i kekahi kanaka i ka mea a'u i hoouna aku ai ia oe, a me ka mea a'u i kauoha aku ai ia oe: a ua hoonoho aku au i na kauwa no kela wahi a me keia wahi.
3 And now what hast thou on hand: put five loaves of bread into my hand, or what else can be found.
Ano hoi, heaha ka mea malalo o kou lima? e haawi mai oe ma kuu lima i na pai berena elima, a i na mea paha i loaa.
4 And the priest answered David, and said, I have no common bread on hand, but there is hallowed bread; if the young men have only withheld themselves from women.
Olelo aku la ke kahuna ia Davida, i aku la, Aohe berena laa ole malalo o kuu lima, aka, he berena laa no nae; ina paha ua hookaokoa na kanaka ui mai na wahine aku.
5 And David answered the priest and said to him, To a certainty women have been denied us yesterday and the day before, when I went forth, and the vessels of the young men were holy: and if this was the custom with unholy things, how much more will it remain this day holy in the vessels.
Olelo aku la o Davida i ke kahuna, i aku la ia ia, He oiaio, ua hookaawaleia na wahine mai o makou aku i neia mau la ekolu paha, i ko'u hele ana mai, a ua maemae na ipu o na kanaka ui nei, a ua like keia me ka berena laa ole, oiaio hoi ka mea i hoolaaia i keia la ilalo o na ipu.
6 So the priest gave him hallowed bread; for there was no bread there except the showbread, that was removed from before the Lord, so as to put down hot bread on the day when it was taken away.
A haawi aku la ke kahuna i ka berena laa ia ia; no ka mea, aohe berena e ae malaila, o ka berena hoike wale no, i laweia mai ke alo o Iehova mai, no ka waiho ana i ka berena mahana i ka la i laweia aku ai oia.
7 Now a certain man of the servants of Saul was there on that day, detained before the Lord; and his name was Doeg, the Edomite, the chief of the herdsmen that belonged to Saul.
Aia no ilaila kekahi kanaka o na kauwa a Saula ia la, e kali ana imua o Iehova, o Doega kona inoa, no Edoma, he luna o na kahuhipa o Saula.
8 And David said unto Achimelech, Hast thou not also here at hand a spear or sword: for both my sword as also my other weapons have I not brought with me, because the king's business was urgent.
Ninau aku la o Davida ia Ahimeleka, Aole anei he ihe maanei malalo o kou lima, a he pahikaua paha? no ka mea, aole au i lawe mai nei i kuu pahikaua, aole hoi i ka'u mea kaua, no ka wikiwiki o ka ke alii mea.
9 And the priest said, The sword of Goliath the Philistine, whom thou didst slay in the valley of Elah, behold, it is here wrapped up in a cloth behind the ephod: if thou wilt take that for thyself, take it; for there is no other save it here. And David said, There is none like that: give it to me.
I mai la ke kahuna, O ka pahikaua a Golia ke kanaka Pilisetia au i pepehi ai ma ke awawa o Ela, aia hoi ia i wahiia i ka lole aahu mahope o ka epoda; a i lawe oe ia mea, e lawe, no ka mea, aohe pahi e ae, oia wale no. I aku la o Davida, Aohe mea e like ana me ia, e haawi mai ia ia'u.
10 And David arose, and fled on that day from before Saul, and came to Achish the king of Gath.
Ku ae la o Davida, a holo ia la mai ke alo aku o Saula, a hele mai io Akisa la ke alii o Gata.
11 And the servants of Achish said unto him, Is not this David the king of the land? did they not of this man sing one to another in the dances, saying, Saul hath slain his thousands, and David his ten thousands?
I mai la na kauwa a Akisa ia ia, Aole anei keia o Davida, ke alii o ka aina? aole anei lakou i mele ai kekahi i kekahi nona me ka haa ana, i ka i ana'e, He mau tausani ka Saula i pepehi ai, he umi tausani hoi ka Davida?
12 And David took these words to his heart, and was greatly afraid of Achish the king of Gath.
A waiho iho la o Davida i keia mau olelo maloko o kona naau, a makau nui iho la ia Akisa ke alii o Gata.
13 And he disguised his reason before their eyes, and played the madman in their hands, and scribbled on the doors of the gate, and let his spittle run down upon his beard.
A hoololi ae la ia i kona ano imua o lakou, a hoohalike ia ia iho me he hehena la iloko o ko lakou lima, a kahakaha aku la ia ma na pani o na ipuka, a helelei iho la kona kuha ma kona umiumi.
14 Then said Achish unto his servants, Lo, ye see, the man is mad: wherefore then will ye bring him to me?
A olelo aku la o Akisa i kana poe kauwa, Aia hoi, e nana oukou, ua hehena neia kanaka: no ke aha la oukou i lawe mai ia ia io'u nei?
15 Have I lack of madmen, that ye have brought this man to play his pranks about me? shall this one come into my house?
He pono anei au i na mea hehena, i lawe mai ai oukou ia ia nei e hoohalike me he hehena la imua ou? e komo anei ia maloko o kuu hale?
