2 Samuel 3
1 And the war is long between the house of Saul and the house of David, and David is going on and [is] strong, and the house of Saul is going on and [is] weak.
HE kaua loa no iwaena o ka ohana a Saula a me ka ohana a Davida; aka, mahuahua ae la ko Davida ikaika, a emi iho la ka ohana a Saula a nawaliwali.
2 And there are sons born to David in Hebron, and his firstborn is Amnon, of Ahinoam the Jezreelitess,
Ua hanau na keikikane na Davida ma Heberona: o Amenona kana hanau mua na Ahinoama no Iezereela;
3 and his second [is] Chileab, of Abigail wife of Nabal the Carmelite, and the third [is] Absalom son of Maacah daughter of Talmai king of Geshur,
A o kana lua, o Kileaba na Abigaila ka wahine a Nabala no Karemela: a o ke kolu, o Abesaloma ke keikikane a Maaka a ke kaikamahine a Talemai ke alii o Gesura;
4 and the fourth [is] Adonijah son of Haggith, and the fifth [is] Shephatiah son of Abital,
A o ka ha, e Adoniia ke keikikaue a Hagita; a o ka lima, o Sepatia ke keikikane a Abitala:
5 and the sixth [is] Ithream, of Eglah wife of David; these have been born to David in Hebron.
A o ke ono, o Itereama na Egela ka wahine a Davida. Ua hanau keia poe na Davida ma Heberona.
6 And it comes to pass, in the war being between the house of Saul and the house of David, that Abner has been strengthening himself in the house of Saul,
A i ka wa kaua iwaena o ka ohana a Saula a me ka ohana a Davida, hooikaika loa iho la o Abenera no ka ohana a Saula.
7 and Saul has a concubine, and her name [is] Rizpah daughter of Aiah, and [Ish-Bosheth] says to Abner, “Why have you gone in to the concubine of my father?”
A ia kekahi haiawahine a Saula, o Rizepa kona inoa, kekahi kaikamahine a Aia. I aku la o Iseboseta ia Abenera, No ke aha la oe i komo aku ai iloko i ka haiawahine a kuu makuakane?
8 And it is exceedingly displeasing to Abner, because of the words of Ish-Bosheth, and he says, “[Am] I the head of a dog—that in reference to Judah, today I do kindness with the house of your father Saul, to his brothers, and to his friends, and have not delivered you into the hand of David—that you charge against me iniquity concerning the woman today?
Alaila, huhu loa o Abenera i na huaolelo a Iseboseta, i aku la, He poo ilio no anei au nana i lokomaikai aku i ka ohana a Saula a kou makuakane, i kona poe hoahanau, a me kona poe makamaka, ma ke ku ee ana i ka Iuda i keia manawa, aole hoi au i haawi aku ia oe maloko o ka lima o Davida, i hoahewa mai ai oe ia'u i neia la no ua wahine nei?
9 Thus God does to Abner, and thus He adds to him, surely as YHWH has sworn to David—surely so I do to him:
Pela ke Akua e hana mai ai ia Abenera a nui aku, ke hana ole aku au ia Davida e like me ka Iehova i hoohiki aku ai ia ia;
10 to cause the kingdom to pass over from the house of Saul, and to raise up the throne of David over Israel, and over Judah, from Dan even to Beer-Sheba.”
E lawe i ke aupuni mai ka ohana a Saula aku, a e kukulu i ka nohoalii o Davida maluna o ka Iseraela a o ka Iuda, mai Dana a hiki i Beeresaba.
11 And he is not able to return a word [to] Abner anymore, because of his fearing him.
Aole no i hiki ia ia ke pane olelo hou aku ia Abenera; no ka mea, ua makau kela ia ia.
12 And Abner sends messengers to David for himself, saying, “Whose [is] the land?” [And] saying, “Make your covenant with me, and behold, my hand [is] with you, to bring around all Israel to you.”
A hoouna mai la o Abenera i na elele io Davida la, i mai la, Nowai anei ka aina? wahi ana, E hookuikahi kaua, eia hoi me oe no kuu lima, e hoohuli aku ai i ka Iseraela a pau i ou la.
13 And [David] says, “Good—I make a covenant with you; only, one thing I am asking of you, that is, you do not see my face, except [that] you first bring in Michal daughter of Saul in your coming in to see my face.”
I aku la kela, Pono; e hookuikahi no kaua: hookahi hoi a'u mea e kanoha aku nei ia oe, wahi ana, Aole oe e ike mai i kuu maka, ke lawe ole mai oe mamua ia Mikala ke kaikamahine a Saula, i kou hele ana mai e ike i kuu maka.
14 And David sends messengers to Ish-Bosheth son of Saul, saying, “Give up my wife Michal, whom I betrothed to myself with one hundred foreskins of the Philistines.”
Hoouna aku la o Davida i na elele io Iseboseta la ke keiki a Saula, i aku la, E haawi mai oe i ka'u wahine ia Mikala, a'u i kuai ai na'u i na omaka o na Pilisetia he haneri.
15 And Ish-Bosheth sends, and takes her from a man, from Phaltiel son of Laish,
Hoouna aku la o Iseboseta, a lawe ae la ia ia mai ke kane aku o Paletiela ke keiki a Laisa.
16 and her husband goes with her, going on and weeping behind her, to Bahurim, and Abner says to him, “Go, return”; and he turns back.
Hele pu mai la kana kane me ia e uwe ana mahope iho ona, a hiki i Bahurima. Alaila, i aku o Abenera ia ia, O hoi. A hoi aku la ia.
17 And the word of Abner was with [the] elderly of Israel, saying, “Thus far you have been seeking David for king over you,
Kamailio aku la o Abenera me na lunakahiko o ka Iseraela, i aku la, Ua imi aku oukou ia Davida i na manawa mamua i alii maluna o oukou.
18 and now, do [it], for YHWH has spoken of David saying, [It is] by the hand of my servant David to save My people Israel out of the hand of the Philistines, and out of the hand of all their enemies.”
Eia no ka manawa: no ka mea, ua olelo mai o Iehova no Davida, i ka i ana mai, Ma ka lima o ka'u kauwa o Davida e hoola au i ko'u poe kanaka i ka Iseraela, mailoko mai o ka lima o ka poe Pilisetia, a mailoko mai hoi o ka lima o ko lakou poe enemi a pau.
19 And Abner also speaks in the ears of Benjamin, and Abner also goes to speak in the ears of David in Hebron all that [is] good in the eyes of Israel, and in the eyes of all the house of Benjamin,
Olelo aku la hoi o Abenera maloko o na pepeiao o ka Beniamina: hele aku la hoi o Abenera e hai aku maloko o na pepeiao o Davida ma Heberona i na mea a pau a ka Iseraela i makemake ai, a me na mea a pau i makemake ai ka Beniamina.
20 and Abner comes to David, to Hebron, and twenty men [are] with him, and David makes a banquet for Abner and for the men who [are] with him.
A hiki aku la o Abenera i Heberona io Davida la, oia me na kanaka he iwakalua. Hana iho la o Davida i ahaaina na Abenera a na ka poe kanaka me ia.
21 And Abner says to David, “I arise, and go, and gather the whole of Israel to my lord the king, and they make a covenant with you, and you have reigned over all that your soul desires”; and David sends Abner away, and he goes in peace.
I aku la o Abenera ia Davida, E ku ae au a hele aku e houluulu i ka Iseraela a pau i kuu haku i ke alii, i hana lakou i berita me oe, i nohoalii hoi oe maluna o na mea a pau a kou naau e makemake nei. Hoihoi aku la o Davida ia Abenera, a hele aku la ia me ka maluhia.
22 And behold, the servants of David, and Joab, have come from the troop, and have brought much spoil with them, and Abner is not with David in Hebron, for he has sent him away, and he goes in peace;
Aia hoi, hele mai la na kanaka o Davida me Ioaba mai ke kaua mai, a lawe pu mai la me lakou i ka waiwai pio he nui: aole hoi o Abenera me Davida i Heberona; no ka mea, ua hoihoi kela ia ia, a ua hele aku ia me ka maluhia.
23 and Joab and all the host that [were] with him have come, and they declare to Joab, saying, “Abner son of Ner has come to the king, and he sends him away, and he goes in peace.”
A hiki mai la o Ioaba a me ka poe kaua a pau pu me ia, hai mai la lakou ia Ioaba, i ka i ana mai, I hele mai nei o Abenera ke keiki a Nera i ke alii, a ua hoihoi aku kela ia ia, a ua hala aku ia me ka maluhia.
24 And Joab comes to the king and says, “What have you done? Behold, Abner has come to you! Why [is] this—you have sent him away, and he is really gone?
Alaila, hele aku la o Ioaba i ke alii, i aku la, Heaha kau i hana'i? Aia hoi, ua hele mai nei o Abenera; heaha hoi kau i hoihoi aku ai ia ia, a ua hala loa kela?
25 You have known Abner son of Ner, that he came to deceive you, and to know your going out and your coming in, and to know all that you are doing.”
Ua ike oe ia Abenera ke keiki a Nera, i hele mai nei ia e hoopunipuni ia oe, a e ike i kou hele ana aku a me kou hoi ana mai, a o ike hoi i ua mea a pau au e hana nei.
26 And Joab goes out from David, and sends messengers after Abner, and they bring him back from the well of Sirah, and David did not know.
A hoi mai o Ioaba iwaho, mai o Davida mai, kena aku la ia i na kanaka e kii ia Abenera, na lakou ia i hoihoi mai, mai ka punawai mai o Sira: aole hoi i ike o Davida.
27 And Abner turns back to Hebron, and Joab turns him aside to the midst of the gate to speak with him quietly, and strikes him there in the fifth [rib]—and he dies—for the blood of his brother Asahel.
A hoi hou mai la o Abenera i Heberona, kono aku la o Ioaba ia ia iwaena o ka ipuka e olelo malie aku ia ia, ilaila kela i hou aku ai ia ia malalo iho o ka lima o ka iwiaoao, a make iho la ia, no ke koko o Asahela o kona kaikaina.
28 And David hears afterward and says, “My kingdom and I [are] acquitted by YHWH for all time, from the blood of Abner son of Ner;
Mahope iho, a lohe ae la o Davida, i aku la ia, Imua o Iehova ua hala ole mau loa au a me kuu aupuni i ke koko o Abenera ke keiki a Nera.
29 it stays on the head of Joab, and on all the house of his father, and there is not cut off from the house of Joab one who has discharging, and leprous, and laying hold on a staff, and falling by a sword, and lacking bread.”
E kau aku no ia maluna o ke poo o Ioaba, maluna hoi o ka ohana a pau o kona makuakane; aole hoi e nelo kekahi o ka ohana a Ioaba i ka mai puha, a i ka lepera paha, a i ke kanikookoo paha, a i ka haule paha maluna o ka pahikaua, a i ka ai ole paha.
30 And Joab and his brother Abishai slew Abner because that he put their brother Asahel to death in Gibeon, in battle.
Pela o Ioaba me Abisai kona kaikaina i pepehi ai ia Abenera; no ka mea, ua pepehi iho oia i ko laua kaikaina ia Asahela i ke kaua ana ma Gibeona.
31 And David says to Joab, and to all the people who [are] with him, “Tear your garments, and gird on sackcloth, and mourn before Abner”; and King David is going after the bier.
Olelo aku la o Davida ia Ioaba a me ka poe a pau me ia, E haehae iho i ko oukou kapa, a e kaei oukou i ke kapa inoino, a e kanikau imua o Abenera. A o ke alii o Davida i hele mahope o ka manele.
32 And they bury Abner in Hebron, and the king lifts up his voice, and weeps at the grave of Abner, and all the people weep;
Kanu iho la lakou ia Abenera ma Heberona: hookiekie ae la ke alii i kona leo iluna ma ka hale kupapau o Abenera, a uwe iho la na kanaka a pau.
33 and the king laments for Abner and says, “Does Abner die as the death of a fool?
Kanikau iho la ke alii maluna o Abenera, i aku la, Ua make no anei o Abenera e like me ka make o ka naaupo?
34 Your hands not bound, And your feet not brought near to chains! You have fallen as one falling before sons of evil!” And all the people add to weep over him.
Aole i nakiikiiia kou mau lima, aole hoi i paa na wawae i ka hao; me ka haule ana o kekahi imua o na kanaka hewa, pela no oe i haule iho ai. Uwe hou iho la na kanaka a pau maluna ona.
35 And all the people come to cause David to eat bread while yet day, and David swears, saying, “Thus God does to me, and thus He adds, for—before the going in of the sun, I taste no bread or any other thing.”
A hele mai na kanaka a pau e koi aku ia Davida e ai i ka ai oiai ka la: hoohiki aku la Davida, i aku la, Pela ke Aku a e hana mai ai ia'u a nui aku, ke hoao iho au i ka berena a i kekahi mea e ae, a napoo ka la.
36 And all the people have discerned [it], and it is good in their eyes, as all that the king has done is good in the eyes of all the people;
Nana aku la na kanaka a pau, a ua oluolu lakou ia mea: no ka mea, ma na mea a pau a ke alii i hana'i, ua oluolu na kanaka a pau ilaila.
37 and all the people know, even all Israel, in that day, that it has not been from the king—to put Abner son of Ner to death.
No ka mea, ua ike na kanaka a pau, a me ka Iseraela a pau ia la, aole no ke alii ka pepehi ia Abenera ke keiki a Nera.
38 And the king says to his servants, “Do you not know that a prince and a great one has fallen this day in Israel?
Olelo aku la ke alii i kana poe kauwa, Aole anei oukou i ike, he kanaka nui i haule i neia la iwaena o ka Iseraela.
39 And today I [am] tender, and an anointed king: and these men, sons of Zeruiah, [are] too hard for me; YHWH repays to the doer of the evil according to his evil.”
Ano hoi, ua nawaliwali au i poniia i alii; a o keia mau kanaka na keiki a Zeruia, ua oi aku ko laua koikoi i ko'u: e hoouku mai no nae o Iehova i ka mea hana ino e like me koua hewa.
