1 Samuel 21
1 Then David came to Nob to Ahimelech the priest. And Ahimelech was shaking in fear when he met David, and said to him, "Why are you alone, and no one 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 said to the priest, "The king has given me orders, and he instructed me, 'No one must know of the matter about which I send you, or about your orders; and I have arranged to meet the young men at a certain 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 Now, if there are five loaves of bread under your control, give them into my hand, or whatever there is."
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, "There is no common bread in my control, but there is holy bread. If the young men have kept themselves from women, they may eat of it."
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, "Truly women have been kept from us as always when I set out. All the young men are holy, even when it is an ordinary mission. So how much more today will their vessels be holy?"
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 what had been consecrated, for there was no bread there but the show bread, that had been removed before the LORD, to put hot bread in 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 that day, detained before the LORD; and his name was Doeg the Edomite, the best of the herdsmen who 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 David said to Ahimelech, "Isn't there here under your control spear or sword? For I have neither brought my sword nor my weapons with me, because the king's business required haste."
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 The priest said, "The sword of Goliath the Philistine, whom you killed in the Valley of Elah, look, it is here wrapped in a cloth behind an ephod. If you will take that, take it; for there is no other except that here." 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 David arose, and fled that day for fear of Saul, and went 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 The servants of Achish said to him, "Isn't this David the king of the land? Did they not sing one to another about him in dances, saying, 'Saul has slain his thousands, 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 David laid up these words in his heart, and was very 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 He changed his behavior before them, and pretended to be mad in their hands, and drummed on the doors of the gate, and let his spittle run down 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 Achish said to his servants, "Look, you see the man is mad. Why then have you brought 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 Do I lack madmen, that you have brought this fellow to play the madman in my presence? Shall this fellow 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?
