< 1 Samuel 11 >

1 After about a month, Nahash the Ammonite came up and camped against Jabesh Gilead: and all the men of Jabesh said to Nahash, "Make a covenant with us, and we will serve you."
A HELE mai o Nahasa no ka Amona, a hoomoana ku e ia Iabesa-gileada: a olelo mai la na kanaka a pau o Iabesa ia Nahasa, E hana oe i kuikahi me makou, alaila e hookauwa aku makou nau.
2 And Nahash the Ammonite said to them, "On this condition I will make a covenant with you, that all your right eyes are put out; and I will make it a disgrace on all Israel."
I mai la o Nahasa no ka Amona ia lakou, Penei ka'u e hana'i me oukou, e poalo aku au i na maka akau a pau o oukou, a kau aku ia i mea hoino maluna o ka Iseraela a pau.
3 The elders of Jabesh said to him, "Give us seven days, that we may send messengers to all the borders of Israel; and then, if there is no one to save us, we will come out to you."
Olelo aku la na lunakahiko o Iabesa ia ia, E ahonui mai oe ia makou i na la ehiku, i hoouna aku ai makou i na elele ma na wahi a pau o ka Iseraela; ina paha aohe mea nana makou e hoopakele, alaila e hele makou i ou la.
4 Then the messengers came to Gibeah of Saul, and spoke these words in the ears of the people: and all the people lifted up their voice, and wept.
A hele mai na elele ma Gibea no Saula, a hai mai i na olelo maloko o ka pepeiao o na kanaka: a hookiekie ae la na kanaka a pau i ko lakou leo iluna, a uwe aku la.
5 Look, Saul came following the oxen out of the field; and Saul said, "What ails the people that they weep?" They told him the words of the men of Jabesh.
Aia hoi, hele mai la o Saula mahope o na bipi mai kula mai, ninau mai la o, Saula, No ke aha la i uwe ai na kanaka? A hai mai lakou ia ia i na mea no na kanaka o Iabesa.
6 The Spirit of God came mightily on Saul when he heard those words, and his anger was kindled greatly.
A hiki mai ka Uhane o ke Akua maluna o Saula, a wela nui kona inaina.
7 He took a yoke of oxen, and cut them in pieces, and sent them throughout all the borders of Israel by the hand of messengers, saying, "Whoever doesn't come forth after Saul and after Samuel, so shall it be done to his oxen." The dread of the LORD fell on the people, and they came out as one man.
Lawe ae la o Saula i mau bipikane kaulua, a okioki liilii ia laua, a hoouna aku la ma na lima o ka poe elele i na mokuna a pau o ka Iseraela, i ka i ana'ku, Pela e hanaia'i na bipi a ka mea hele ole mamuli o Saula a mamuli o Samuela. A kau mai la ka makau o Iehova i na kanaka, a hele mai lakou me ka manao lokahi.
8 He numbered them in Bezek; and the children of Israel were three hundred thousand, and the men of Judah thirty thousand.
A helu aku la oia ia lakou ma Bezeka, akolu haneri tausani o na mamo a Iseraela, a he kanakolu tausani kanaka o ka Iuda.
9 And he said to the messengers who came, "Thus you shall tell the men of Jabesh, 'Tomorrow, by the time the sun is hot, you shall have deliverance.'" The messengers came and told the men of Jabesh; and they were glad.
I aku la lakou i na elele i hele mai. Peneia oukou e olelo aku ai i na kanaka o Iabesa-gileada, Apopo a wela mai ka la, e hoopakeleia oukou. A hoi aku la na elele, a hoike aku la i na kanaka o Iabesa; olioli iho la lakou.
10 Therefore the men of Jabesh said, "Tomorrow we will come out to you, and you shall do with us all that seems good to you."
No ia mea, i aku la na kanaka o Iabesa, Apopo e hele aku makou iwaho io oukou la, a e hana mai oukou ia makou i na mea a pau a oukou e makemake ai.
11 It was so on the next day, that Saul put the people in three companies; and they came into the midst of the camp in the morning watch, and struck the Ammonites until the heat of the day: and it happened, that those who remained were scattered, so that no two of them were left together.
A i ka la apopo, hoonoho iho la o Saula i na kanaka i ekolu poe; a hele lakou iwaena konu o ka poe kaua i ka moku ana o ka pawa o ke ao, a pepehi iho la i ka Amora a hiki i ka wela o ka la: a o ke koena, hele liilii aku la lakou, aole elua kanaka ma kahi hookahi.
12 And the people said to Samuel, "Who is it that said Saul should not reign over us? Bring those men so we may put them to death."
Ninau mai la na kanaka ia Samuela, Owai ka i olelo, E alii anei o Saula maluna o kakou? E lawe mai i ua poe kanaka la, a e pepehi makou ia lakou.
13 Saul said, "There shall not a man be put to death this day; for today the LORD has worked deliverance in Israel."
Olelo mai la o Saula, Aole e pepehiia kekahi kanaka i keia la: no ka mea, ua hana mai o Iehova i ke ola iloko o ka Iseraela i keia la.
14 Then Samuel said to the people, "Come, and let us go to Gilgal, and renew the kingdom there."
Olelo aku la o Samuela i na kanaka, Ina kakou e hele ma Gilegala, a e hookupaa ilaila i ke aupuni.
15 All the people went to Gilgal; and there they made Saul king before the LORD in Gilgal; and there they offered sacrifices of peace offerings before the LORD; and there Saul and all the men of Israel rejoiced greatly.
A hele na kanaka a pau ma Gilegala; a hooalii aku la lakou ia Saula ilaila imua o Iehova ma Gilegala: a ilaila lakou i kaumaha aku ai i na mohai hoomalu imua o Iehova; a hauoli nui iho la o Saula, a me na kanaka a pau o ka Iseraela ilaila.
