1 Samuel 21
1 And David comes to Nob, to Ahimelech the priest, and Ahimelech trembles at meeting David and says to him, “Why [are] you alone, and no man [is] with you?”
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 says to Ahimelech the priest, “The king has commanded me [on] a matter, and he says to me, Let no man know anything of the matter about which I send you, and which I have commanded you; and [my] young men know [to go] 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 is there under your hand? Give five loaves into my hand, or that which is 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 answers David and says, “There is no common bread under my hand, but there is holy bread; if only the youths have been kept 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 answers the priest and says to him, “Surely, if women have been restrained from us as before in my going out, then the vessels of the young men are holy, and it [is] a common way; and also, surely it is sanctified today in the vessel.”
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 And the priest gives the holy thing to him, for there was no bread there except the Bread of the Presentation, which is turned aside from the presence of YHWH to put hot bread [there] in the day of its being 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 And there [is] a man of the servants of Saul detained before YHWH on that day, and his name [is] Doeg the Edomite, chief of the shepherds whom Saul has.
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 says to Ahimelech, “And is there not spear or sword here under your hand? For I have taken neither my sword nor my vessels in my hand, for the matter of the king 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 says, “The sword of Goliath the Philistine, whom you struck in the Valley of Elah, behold, it is wrapped in a garment behind the ephod, if you take it to yourself, take; for there is none other except it in this [place].” And David says, “There is none like it—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 rises and flees on that day from the face of Saul, and comes to Achish 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 say to him, “Is this not David, the king of the land? Is it not of this one [that] they sing in dances, saying, Saul struck among his thousands, and David among his myriads?”
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 lays these words in his heart, and is exceedingly afraid of the face of Achish 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 changes his behavior before their eyes, and feigns himself mad in their hand, and scribbles on the doors of the gate, and lets down his spittle to 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 And Achish says to his servants, “Behold, you see a man acting as a madman; why do you 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 Am I lacking madmen, that you have brought in this one to act as a madman before me? Does 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?
