2 Samuel 17
1 Moreover Ahithophel said to Absalom, "Let me now choose twelve thousand men, and I will arise and pursue after David tonight.
OLELO aku la o Ahitopela ia Abesaloma, He pono na'u e wae aku ano i na kanaka he umikumamalua tausani, a e ku ae au a e hahai aku mahope o Davida i neia po.
2 And I will catch up with him while he is weary and discouraged, and will thow him into a panic, and all the people who are with him will flee. And I will strike the king alone.
A e loaa aku ia'u ia oi nawaliwali ia a me ke kanaka ole, a e hooweliweli aku au ia ia; a e holo aku na kanaka a pau me ia; a o ke alii wale no ka'u e pepehi aku ai.
3 Then all the people will come back to you, as a bride returns to her husband. You seek the life of only one man; then all the people will be in peace."
A e hoihoi mai nei au i na kanaka a pau iou nei; o ke kanaka au e imi nei, na like ia me ka hoi hou ana mai o lakou a pau: pela e malu ai na kanaka a pau.
4 And the advice seemed good to Absalom and all the elders of Israel.
He pono keia olelo i ka manao o Abesaloma a me na lunakahiko a pau o ka Iseraela.
5 Then Absalom said, "Now call Hushai the Archite, and let's hear what he says."
Alaila, i mai la o Abesaloma, E kahea aku hoi ia Husai no Areki; e lohe hoi kakou i kana olelo.
6 When Hushai came to Absalom, Absalom said to him, "Ahithophel has spoken thus. Should we follow his advice? And if not, speak up."
A hiki mai o Husai io Abesaloma la, olelo mai la o Abesaloma ia ia, i mai la, Pela ka Ahitopela i olelo mai ai: e hana anei kakou e like me kana olelo? A i ole, e olelo mai hoi oe.
7 So Hushai said to Absalom, "The counsel that Ahithophel has given this time is not good."
I aku la o Husai ia Abesaloma, O ka oleloao a Ahitopela ana i olelo mai ai, aohe pono ia i neia manawa.
8 Moreover, Hushai said, "You know your father and his men, that they are warriors, and that they are as fierce as a bear robbed of her cubs in the wild, or a sow snared in the wild. Your father is expert in war, and will not camp with the people.
No ka mea, wahi a Husai, ua ike oe i kou makuakane a me na kanaka ona, he poe kanaka ikaika lakou, a ua ukiuki ko lakou naau me he bea la i kailiia aku kana ohana keiki ma ke kula; he kanaka kaua no hoi kou makuakane, aole ia e moe me na kanaka.
9 Look, he is now hidden in some pit, or in some other place. And it will happen when some of them have fallen first, that whoever hears it will say, 'There is a slaughter among the people who follow Absalom.'
Aia no ia ua pee ma kekahi lua, i kekahi wahi paha: a i ka haule mua ana o kekahi mau mea o lakou, e olelo auanei ka poe lohe, He lukuia iwaena o ka poe hahai ia Abesaloma;
10 Then even the one who is brave, whose heart is like the heart of a lion, will utterly melt; for all Israel knows that your father is a warrior, and those who are with him are brave men.
A o ke koa, ka mea naau e like me ka naau o ka liona, e hehee loa ia: no ka mea, ua ike ka Iseraela a pau, he kanaka koa kou makuakane, a he poe kanaka ikaika hoi ka poe me ia.
11 But, I strongly advise as follows: Let all Israel be gathered to you from Dan to Beersheba, as the sand that is by the sea in number, and that you personally go into battle.
Nolaila, eia kuu manao ke hai aku nei, I hoakoakoaia mai ka Iseraela a pau iou nei, mai Dana a hiki i Beeraseba, e like me ke one o ke kai ka nui loa; a e hele oe iho no i ke kaua.
12 So we will come upon him in some place where he can be found, and we will fall on him as the dew falls on the ground, and of him and all the men with him not one will be left.
Pela kakou e hiki aku ai io na la i kahi e loaa aku ai ia ia, a e kau aku kakou maluna ona, e like me ka hau e kau mai maluna o ka honua: a oia, a o ka poe a pau me ia, aole loa e koe kekahi o lakou.
13 Moreover, if he withdraws into a city, then all Israel will take up ropes to that city, and we will drag it into the riverbed, until there isn't one pebble to be found there."
A ina paha ua komo aku ia iloko o kekahi kulanakauhale, alaila e lawe aku ka Iseraela a pau i na kaula i ua kulanakauhale la, a e kauo aku kakou ia wahi maloko o ka muliwai, a koe ole ma ia wahi kekahi pohaku liilii.
14 Then Absalom and all Israel said, "The counsel of Hushai the Archite is better than the counsel of Ahithophel." For the LORD had commanded that Ahithophel's counsel should be defeated, so that that the LORD could bring Absalom to ruin.
I aku la o Abesaloma a me na kanaka a pau o ka Iseraela, ua oi aku ka pono o ka oleloao a Husai no Areki, mamua o ka oleloao a Ahitopela. No ka mea, ua manao mai o Iehova e hoolilo i ka oleloao akamai a Ahitopela i mea ole, i mea e hooili mai ai o Iehova i ka ino maluna o Abesaloma.
15 Then Hushai said to Zadok and to Abiathar the priests, "Here is the council Ahithophel gave Absalom and the elders of Israel, and here is what I counseled.
Alaila, olelo aku la o Husai ia Zadoka laua o Abiatara na kahuna, Pela a penei i oleloao aku ai o Ahitopela ia Abesaloma a me na lunakahiko o ka Iseraela; pela a penei hoi au i oleloao aku ai.
16 Now therefore send quickly and tell David, saying, 'Do not stay the night at the fords of the wilderness, but by all means pass over. Otherwise the king and all the people who are with him will be swallowed up.'"
Nolaila, e hoouna koke aku olua e hai ia Davida, i ka i ana aku, Mai moe oe i neia po ma na papu o ka waonahele, e hele koke oe ma kela aoao, o pau loa ke alii a me na kanaka me ia i ke aleia.
17 Now Jonathan and Ahimaaz were staying at En Rogel, and a female servant was to go and tell them, and they would go and inform king David. For they were not to be seen going into the city.
A ua noho o Ionatana laua o Ahimaaza ma Enerogela, no ka mea, aole pono e ikeia laua ke komo iloko o ke kulanakauhale, a hele aku la kekahi kauwawahine, a hai aku la ia laua: hele aku la hoi laua, a hai aku la i ke alii ia Davida.
18 But a young man saw them and told Absalom. So they both departed quickly and reached the house of a man in Bahurim who had a well in his courtyard, and they went down into it.
Aka, ua ike no kekahi keiki ia laua, a hai aku la ia Abesaloma: aka, hele koke aku la laua a hiki aku la i ka hale o kekahi kanaka i Bahurima, a he luawai maloko o ka pahale ona, ilaila laua i iho ai.
19 And the woman took a covering and spread it over the top of the well and scattered some grain on it, so that nothing could be noticed.
Lalau aku la ka wahine i ka mea uhi, hohola iho la maluna o ka waha o ka luawai, a halii iho la i ka palaoa maluna iho: a ua ike ole ia ua mea la.
20 Then Absalom's servants came to the woman at the house, and they asked, "Where are Ahimaaz and Jonathan?" And the woman said to them, "They have crossed the brook of water." And when they had searched and could not find them, they returned to Jerusalem.
A hiki mai na kauwa a Abesaloma i ua wahine la ma ka hale, ninau mai la lakou, Auhea o Ahimaaza laua o Ionatana? I aku la ka wahine ia lakou, ua hala aku la laua ma kela aoao o ke kahawai. Imi aku la lakou, aole hoi i loaa, alaila hoi hou mai la lakou i Ierusalema.
21 It came about after they had left that they climbed out of the well, and left and told king David. And they said to him, "Get up and cross quickly over the water, for Ahithophel has given such and such counsel against you."
A hala aku la lakou, pii mai la laua mailoko mai o ka luawai, hele aku la, a hai aku la i ke alii ia Davida. I aku la ia Davida, Eku ae, e holo koke ma kela aoao o ka wai; no ka mea, penei ka Ahitopela i olelo ku e ai ia oukou.
22 Then David and all the people who were with him got up and they crossed the Jordan. By dawn there was no one left who had not crossed the Jordan.
Alaila ku ae la o Davida a me na kanaka a pau me ia, a hele aku la ma kela aoao o Ioredane: a i ka wanaao, aole i koe kekahi o lakou i ka hele ole ma kela aoao o Ioredane.
23 Now when Ahithophel saw that his counsel was not followed, he saddled his donkey and went up to his home in his city. Then he set his house in order and hanged himself, and he died and was buried in the tomb of his father.
A ike aku la o Ahitopela, aole i hanaia e like me kana oleloao, hoee aku la ia i ka noho maluna o kona hoki, ku ae la ia, hoi hou aku la ia i kona wahi, i kona hale iho, i kona kulanakauhale, a kauoha aku la no ko ka hale ona, a kaawe iho la ia ia iho, a make; a ua kanuia oia ma ka halekupapau o kona makuakane.
24 Then David came to Mahanaim. And Absalom crossed the Jordan, he and all Israel with him.
Alaila hele aku la o Davida i Mahanaima: a hele aku la hoi o Abesaloma ma kela aoao o Ioredane, oia a me na kanaka a pau o ka Iseraela me ia.
25 And Absalom had put Amasa over the army in place of of Joab. Now Amasa was the son of a man whose name was Jether the Ishmaelite, who had married Abigail the daughter of Jesse, sister to Zeruiah, Joab's mother.
Hoonoho aku la o Abesaloma ia Amasa ma ko Ioaba wahi maluna o ka poe kaua: a o ua Amasa la, he keiki ia na kekahi kanaka no ka Iseraela, o Itera ka inoa, ka mea i komo aku iloko io Abigala la ke kaikamahine a Nahasa, a o ke kaikaina o Zeruia o ka makuwahine o Ioaba.
26 So Israel and Absalom camped in the land of Gilead.
Hoomoana iho la ka Iseraela me Abesaloma ma ka aina o Gileada.
27 Now it happened when David came to Mahanaim, Shobi the son of Nahash from Rabbah of the people of Ammon, Makir the son of Ammiel of Lo Debar, and Barzillai the Gileadite of Rogelim,
A hiki aku la o Davida i Mahanaima, ilaila o Sobi ke keiki a Nahasa no Raba o na mamo a Amona, a o Makira ke keiki a Amiela no Lodebara, a o Barezilai no Rogelima ma Gileada,
28 brought couches for sleeping, and covers, and basins, and pottery utensils, and wheat, and barley, and meal, and parched grain, and beans, and lentils,
Lawe mai la lakou i na moe a me na kiaha a me na ipu lepo a me na hua palaoa a me ka bale a me ka palaoa, a me ka palaoa papaa, a me ka papapa maka, a me ka pi, a me ka papapa papaa;
29 and honey, and curd of the flock, and cheese of the herd. And they presented them to David and to the people who were with him to eat. For they said, "The people are hungry and tired and thirsty in the wilderness."
A me ka meli, a me ka bata, a mo na hipa, a me ka waiubipipaa, na Davida a na ka poe kanaka me ia e ai ai: no ka mea, olelo ae la lakou, Ua pololi na kanaka, ua luhi a me ka makewai ma ka waonahele.
