Judges 11
1 Now Jephthah the Gileadite was a mighty man of valor, and he was the son of a prostitute. And Gilead became the father of Jephthah.
HE kanaka koa loa o Iepeta, no Gileada, a he keiki ia na kekahi wahine hookamakama: na Gileada o Iepeta.
2 Gilead's wife bore him sons; and when his wife's sons grew up, they drove out Jephthah, and said to him, "You shall not inherit in our father's house; for you are the son of another woman."
Hanau mai la ka Gileada wahine i mau keikikane nana; a oo ae la na keikikane a kana wahine, kipaku aku la lakou ia Iepeta, i aku la ia ia, Aole ou kuleana ma ka hale o ko makou makuakane; no ka mea, he keiki oe na kekahi wahine e.
3 Then Jephthah fled from his brothers, and lived in the land of Tob: and there were gathered vain fellows to Jephthah, and they went out with him.
Holo aku la o Iepeta, mai ke alo aku o kona poe hoahanau, a noho ma ka aina o Toba. Akoakoa mai la na kanaka lapuwale io Iepeta la, a hele pu me ia.
4 It happened after a while, that the people of Ammon made war against Israel.
A mahope iho o ia mau la, kaua aku la na mamo a Amona i ka Iseraela.
5 It was so, that when the people of Ammon made war against Israel, the elders of Gilead went to get Jephthah out of the land of Tob;
A i ka manawa i kaua aku ai na mamo a Amona i ka Iseraela, alaila, hele aku la na lunakahiko o Gileada e lawe mai ia Iepeta, mai ka aina mai o Toba.
6 and they said to Jephthah, "Come and be our chief, that we may fight with the people of Ammon."
I aku la lakou ia Iepeta, E hele mai oe i luna kaua no makou, i kaua aku makou i na mamo a Amona.
7 And Jephthah said to the elders of Gilead, "Did you not hate me, and drive me out of my father's house, and sent me away from you? And why have you come to me now when you are in distress?"
I mai la o Iepeta i na luna kahiko o Gileada, Aole anei oukou i hoowahawaha mai ia'u, a kipaku mai ia'u, mai ka hale mai o ko'u makuakane? No ke aha la oukou e hele mai ai io'u nei, i keia wa a oukou i pilikia'i?
8 The elders of Gilead said to Jephthah, "Not so. We have turned to you now, that you may go with us, and fight with the people of Ammon; and you shall be our head over all the inhabitants of Gilead."
I aku la na lunakahiko o Gileada ia Iepeta, Ke hoi hou mai nei makou ia oe, e hele pu oe me makou, e kaua aku i na mamo a Amona, a i lilo oe i poo maluna o ka poe a pau e noho ana ma Gileada.
9 Jephthah said to the elders of Gilead, "If you bring me home again to fight with the people of Ammon, and the LORD delivers them before me, shall I be your head?"
I mai la o Iepeta i na lunakahiko o Gileada, Ina hoihoi oukou ia'u e kaua aku i na mamo a Amona, a haawi mai o Iehova ia lakou imua o'u, e lilo anei au i poo no oukou?
10 The elders of Gilead said to Jephthah, "The LORD shall be witness between us; surely according to your word so will we do."
I aku la na lunakahiko o Gileada ia Iepeta, Na Iehova no e hoolohe mai mawaena o kakou, ke hana ole makou e like me kau olelo.
11 Then Jephthah went with the elders of Gilead, and the people made him head and chief over them. And Jephthah spoke all his words before the LORD in Mizpah.
Alaila hele pu o Iepeta me na lunakahiko o Gileada, a hoonoho iho la na kanaka ia Iepeta, i poo, a i luna hoi maluna o lakou. Olelo aku la o Iepeta i kana olelo a pau imua o Iehova ma Mizepa.
12 Jephthah sent messengers to the king of the people of Ammon, saying, "What have you to do with me, that you have come to me to fight against my land?"
Hoouna aku la o Iepeta i elele, i ke alii o na mamo a Amona, i aku la, Heaha kau ia'u, i hele mai ai oe e kaua i ko'u aina?
13 And the king of the people of Ammon answered the messengers of Jephthah, "Because Israel took away my land, when he came up out of Egypt, from the Arnon even to the Jabbok, and to the Jordan. Now therefore restore it peaceably, and I will depart."
I mai la ke alii o na mamo a Amona i na elele o Iepeta, No ka mea, lawe lilo ka Iseraela i ko'u aina, mai Arenona a hiki i Iaboka, a me Ioredane, i ka wa a lakou i hele mai ai, mailoko mai o Aigupita; nolaila, e hoihoi mai oe ia, me ka malu.
14 And the messengers returned to Jephthah, and Jephthah sent messengers again to the king of the people of Ammon;
Hoouna hou aku la o Iepeta i elele i ke alii o na mamo a Amona:
15 and he said to him, "Thus says Jephthah: 'Israel did not take away the land of Moab, nor the land of the people of Ammon,
I aku la ia ia, Ke olelo mai nei o Iepeta, aole i lawe ka Iseraela i ka aina o Moaba, aole hoi i ka aina o na mamo a Amona;
16 but when they came up from Egypt, and Israel went through the wilderness to the Red Sea, and came to Kadesh;
I ka manawa i hele mai ai ka Iseraela, mai Aigupita mai, hele no lakou, ma ka waonahele a hiki i ke Kaiula, a komo no i Kadesa.
17 then Israel sent messengers to the king of Edom, saying, 'Please let me pass through your land.' But the king of Edom did not listen. In the same way, he sent to the king of Moab; but he would not. So Israel stayed in Kadesh.
Alaila, hoouna ka Iseraela i elele i ke alii o Edoma, i aku la, E hele paha wau mawaena o kou aina. Aole hoolohe mai ke alii o Edoma. Pela no lakou i hoouna aku ai i ke alii o Moaba. Aole ia i ae, a noho no ka Iseraela ma Kadesa.
18 Then they went through the wilderness, and went around the land of Edom, and the land of Moab, and came by the east side of the land of Moab, and they camped on the other side of the Arnon; but they did not come within the territory of Moab, for the Arnon was the boundary of Moab.
Hele ae la lakou ma ka waonahele, a puni ka aina o Edoma, a me ka aina o Moaba, ma ka aoao hikina o Moaba ka hele ana; a hoomoana iho la ma kela aoao o Arenona, aole hoi i komo maloko o na mokuna o Moaba; no ka mea, o Arenona ka mokuna o Moaba.
19 Israel sent messengers to Sihon king of the Amorites, the king of Heshbon; and Israel said to him, "Please let me pass through your land to our land.'
Hoouna aku la ka Iseraela i elele ia Sihona, i ke alii o ka Amora, ke alii o Hesebona, i aku la o Iseraela ia ia, E hele paha makou mawaena o kou aina, a hiki i ko'u wahi.
20 But Sihon did not trust Israel to pass through his territory; but Sihon gathered all his people together, and camped in Jahaz, and fought against Israel.
Aole oluolu o Sihona ke hele ka Iseraela ma kona mokuna. Hoakoakoa mai la o Sihona i kona poe kanaka a pau, a hoomoana iho la ma Iahaza, a kaua mai la i ka Iseraela.
21 The LORD, the God of Israel, delivered Sihon and all his people into the hand of Israel, and they struck them. So Israel possessed all the land of the Amorites, the inhabitants of that country.
Haawi mai la o Iehova, ke Akua o ka Iseraela ia Sihona, a me kona poe kanaka a pau i ka lima o ka Iseraela, a luku aku la lakou nei i kela poe. A komo iho ka Iseraela i ka aina a pau o ka Amora, ka poe i noho ma ia aina.
22 They possessed all the territory of the Amorites, from the Arnon even to the Jabbok, and from the wilderness even to the Jordan.
A komo no lakou i na mokuna a pau o ka Amora, mai Arenona, a hiki i Iaboka, mai ka waonahele, a hiki i Ioredane.
23 So now the LORD, the God of Israel, has driven out the Amorites from before his people Israel, and should you possess them?
Ua hoonele mai o Iehova, ke Akua o ka Iseraela i ka Amora, mai ke alo aku o ka Iseraela, a e komo anei oe ia wahi?
24 Won't you possess that which Chemosh your god gives you to possess? So whoever the LORD our God has driven out from before us, we will possess.
Aole anei oe e komo i kahi a Kemosa, a kou akua, e hookomo ai ia oe? A o na mea a pau a Iehova a ko makou Akua e hoonele ai imua o makou, oia ka makou e komo ai.
25 And now are you anything better than Balak the son of Zippor, king of Moab? Did he ever contend against Israel, or did he ever fight against them?
Ua oi aku anei kou maikai mamua o ko Balaka, ke keiki a Zipora ke alii o Moaba? Ua paio anei ia me ka Iseraela, ua kaua anei ia lakou,
26 While Israel lived in Heshbon and its towns, and in Aroer and its towns, and in all the cities that are along by the side of the Arnon, three hundred years; why did you not liberate them within that time?
I ka noho ana o ka Iseraela ma Hesebona, a me kona mau kulanakauhale, a ma Aroera, a me kona mau kulanakauhale, a ma na kulanakauhale a pau e kokoke ana i na mokuna o Arenona, ekolu haneri makahiki? No ke aha la oukou i kii ole mai e lawe ia manawa?
27 I therefore have not sinned against you, but you do me wrong by making war against me. The LORD, the Judge, be judge this day between the children of Israel and the people of Ammon."
Aole au i hana hewa ia oe, aka, ke hana hewa mai nei oe ia'u i kou kaua ana mai ia'u. O Iehova ka lunakanawai, nana no e hooponopono mai i keia la iwaena o na mamo a Iseraela a me na mamo a Amona.
28 However the king of the people of Ammon did not listen to the words of Jephthah which he sent him.
Aole hoolohe ke alii o na mamo a Amona i na olelo a Iepeta ana i hoouna aku ai ia ia.
29 Then the Spirit of the LORD came on Jephthah, and he passed over Gilead and Manasseh, and passed over Mizpeh of Gilead, and from Mizpeh of Gilead he passed over to the people of Ammon.
Alaila kau mai la ka Uhane o ke Akua maluna o Iepeta, a kaahele ae la ia i Gileada, a me ko Manase, a kaahele aku ia Mizepa o Gileada, a mai Mizepa o Gileada ia i hele aku ai a i na mamo a Amona.
30 Jephthah made a vow to the LORD, and said, "If you will indeed deliver the people of Ammon into my hand,
Hoohiki iho la o Iepeta, me ka olelo haawi no Iehova, i aku la, Ina e haawi io mai oe i na mamo a Amona i ko'u lima,
31 then it shall be that whatever comes forth from the doors of my house to meet me, when I return in peace from the people of Ammon, it shall be the LORD's, and I will offer it up for a burnt offering."
Alaila, o ka mea e puka e mai ana, mailoko mai o na puka o ko'u hale, e halawai me au, i ko'u hoi ana me ka malu, mai na mamo a Amona aku, oia ko Iehova, a i ole ia na'u ia e kaumaha aku i mohai kuni.
32 So Jephthah passed over to the people of Ammon to fight against them; and the LORD delivered them into his hand.
Hele aku la o Iepeta i na mamo a Amona, e kaua aku ia lakou; a haawi mai o Iehova ia lakou i kona lima.
33 He struck them from Aroer until you come to Minnith, even twenty cities, and to Abel Keramim, with a very great slaughter. So the people of Ammon were subdued before the children of Israel.
Luku aku la ia ia lakou, mai Aroera aku a hiki i Minita, he iwakalua kulanakauhale, a hiki no hoi i ka papu o na malawaina, he luku nui loa. Pio iho la na mamo a Amona imua o ke alo o na mamo a Iseraela.
34 Jephthah came to Mizpah to his house; and look, his daughter came out to meet him with tambourines and with dances: and she was his only child; besides her he had neither son nor daughter.
Hoi mai la o Iepeta i Mizepa, i kona hale; aia hoi kana kaikamahine i hele mai iwaho, e halawai me ia, me na pahu kani, a me ka hula. O kana hanau kahi no ia; aole ana keikikane, aole hoi kaikamahine e ae.
35 And it happened, when he saw her, that he tore his clothes, and said, "Alas, my daughter. You have brought me very low. You have become a stumbling block in my sight. And you are among those who trouble me. For I have given my word to the LORD, and I can't break it."
A ike aku la o Iepeta ia ia, haehae iho la i kona aahu, i aku la, Auwe kuu kaikamahine e! Ua hookaumaha loa mai oe ia'u; o oe kekahi i hoopilikia mai ia'u. Ua oaka ae la au i kuu waha ia Iehova, aole hiki ia'u ke hoi hope.
36 She said to him, "My father, since you have given your word to the LORD; do to me as you promised, because the LORD has taken vengeance for you on your enemies, even on the people of Ammon."
I aku la oia ia ia, E kuu makuakane, ua oaka oe i kou waha ia Iehova ea, e hana mai oe ia'u, e like me kela mea i puka aku, mai kou waha aku; no ka mea, ua hoopai o Iehova i kou poe enemi nou, i na mamo hoi a Amona.
37 She said to her father, "Let this thing be done for me: leave me alone two months, that I may depart and go down on the mountains, and weep because of my virginity, I and my companions."
I aku la oia i kona makuakane, E hanaia keia mea no'u; e waiho wale ia'u, i elua malama, i hele au a kaahele i na mauna, a uwe i ko'u puupaa ana, owau a me ko'u poe hoahanau.
38 He said, "Go." He sent her away for two months: and she departed, she and her companions, and wept because of her virginity on the mountains.
I mai la kela, O hele. Hoouna ae la oia ia ia i elua malama. Hele aku la ia me kona mau hoalauna, a uwe iho la ma na mauna no kona puupaa ana.
39 It happened at the end of two months, that she returned to her father, who did with her according to what he had vowed. And she was a virgin. It became a custom in Israel,
A i ka pau ana o na malama elua, hoi mai la kela i kona makuakane, a hana aku la oia ia ia i kona hoohiki ana i hoohiki ai; aole hoi ia i ike i ke kane: a lilo ia i oihana mawaena o ka Iseraela,
40 that the daughters of Israel went yearly four days in a year to commemorate the daughter of Jephthah the Gileadite.
O ka hele ana o na kaikamahine o ka Iseraela, i kela makahiki, i keia makahiki, e hoomaikai i ke kaikamahine a Iepeta, no Gileada, eha la i ka makahiki
