< 1 Samuel 13 >

1 Saul was [thirty] years old when he began to reign; and, when he had reigned two years over Israel,
HOOKAHI makahiki o ko Saula alii ana: a pau na makahiki elua o kona alii ana,
2 Saul chose him three thousand men out of Israel, of whom there were with Saul, two thousand in Michmash and in the hill-country of Bethel, and, a thousand, were with Jonathan, in Gibeah of Benjamin, —but, the rest of the people, he let go, every man to his own home.
Wae aku la o Saula nona i ekolu tausani kanaka o ka Iseraela; elua tausaui me Saula ma Mikemasa, a ma ka mauna o Betela, a hookahi tausani me Ionatana ma Gibea o Beniamina; a hoihoi aku la ia i na kanaka i koe i ko lakou halelewa iho.
3 Then did Jonathan smite the garrison of Philistines that was in Geba, and the Philistines heard of it, —and, Saul, blew with a horn throughout all the land saying, Let the Hebrews hear!
A luku aku la o Ionatana i ka poe koa o ko Pilisetia ma Geba; a lohe ko Pilisetia, A puhi aku la o Saula i ka pu ma ka aina a pau, i ka i ana'e, E hoolohe ka poe Hebera.
4 And, all Israel, heard say—Saul hath smitten the garrison of the Philistines, Moreover, also, Israel have made themselves odious among the Philistines, —so the people were called together to follow Saul, to Gilgal.
A lohe ae la ka Iseraela a pau i ka mea i oleloia mai, ua pepehi o Saula i ka poe koa o ko Pilisetia, a ua hoowahawahaia o ka Iseraela e ko Pilisetia. A ua houluuluia na kanaka mahope o Saula ma Gilegala.
5 And, the Philistines, gathered themselves together to fight with Israel, thirty thousand chariots, and six thousand horsemen, a people also like the sand that is on the sea-shore for multitude, —and they came up, and encamped in Michmash, east of Beth-aven.
Hoakoakoa ae la ko Pilisetia e kaua aku i ka Iseraela, he kanakolu tausani halekaa, eono tausani hoohololio, a me na kanaka e like me ke one ma kahakai he nui loa; a hele mai lakou, a hoomoana ma Mikemasa, ma ka hikina o Betavena.
6 So, the men of Israel, saw they were in a strait, for the people had been harassed, —and the people had hidden themselves in caves, and in thickets, and among cliffs, and in holes, and in pits.
A ike aku la na kanaka o ka Iseraela i ko lakou popilikia, (no ka mea, ua pilikia na kanaka, ) pee aku la na kanaka iloko o na ana, a maloko o na laau kuku, a ma na pohaku, a me na wahi kiekie, a maloko o na lua.
7 And, Hebrews, had passed over the Jordan, to the land of Gad, and Gilead, —but, Saul, was yet in Gilgal, and all the people, trembled after him.
A o kekahi poe Hebera hele aku la ma kela aoao o Ioredane ma ka aina o Gada, a o Gileada: a ma Gilegala o Saula, a haalulu na kanaka mamuli ona.
8 And he waited seven days, by the set time that Samuel had named, but Samuel came not to Gilgal, —and the people were scattered from him.
Noho iho la ia i na la ehiku e like me ka manawa a Samuela i olelo ai: aole i hiki mai o Samuela ma Gilegala; a ua hele liilii na kanaka mai ona aku la.
9 Then said Saul, Bring near unto me, the ascending-sacrifice and the peace-offerings. And he offered up the ascending-sacrifice.
Olelo aku la o Saula, E lawe mai ia'u i mohaikuni, a me na mohai hoomalu. Kaumaha aku la ia i ka mohaikuni.
10 And it came to pass, as he had made an end of offering up the ascending-sacrifice, lo! Samuel, had come, —and Saul went out to meet him, that he might bless him.
A i ka manawa i pau ai kana kaumaha ana aku i ka mohaikuni, aia hoi, hiki mai la o Samuela; hele aku la o Saula e halawai me ia, e hoomaikai aku ia ia.
11 Then said Samuel—What hast thou done? And Saul said—Because I saw that the people had been scattered from me, and, thou, hadst not come within the appointed days, and, the Philistines, had gathered themselves together to Michmash,
Ninau aku la o Samuela, Heaha kau i hana'i? I mai la o Saula, No ka'u ike ana i na kanaka e hele liilii ana mai o'u aku nei, a no kou hiki ole mai i na la i oleloia'i, a no ka hoakoakoa ana o ko Pilisetia ma Mikemasa;
12 therefore I said—Now, will the Philistines come down against me, at Gilgal, but, the face of Yahweh, have I not appeased: So I forced myself, and offered up the ascending-sacrifice.
Nolaila, i iho la au, e iho mai auanei ko Pilisetia maluna o'u ma Gilegala, aole au i noi aku ia Iehova: no ia mea, hooikaika iho la au ia'u iho, a kaumaha aku la i ka mohaikuni.
13 And Samuel said unto Saul—Thou hast shewn thyself foolish, —thou hast not kept the commandment of Yahweh thy God, which he commanded thee, for, now, would Yahweh have established thy kingdom unto Israel until times age-abiding;
Olelo aku la o Samuela ia Saula, Ua hana naaupo oe, aole oe i malama i ke kauoha a Iehova kou Akua, ana i kauoha mai ai ia oe; i hookupaa mau loa ai o Iehova i kou aupuni maluna o ka Iseraela.
14 Whereas, now, shall thy kingdom not be established, —Yahweh hath sought out for him a man after his own heart, and Yahweh hath commanded him to be leader over his people, because thou hast not kept that which Yahweh commanded thee.
Ano hoi, aole e mau ana kou aupuni; ua imi mai o Iehova i kanaka nona e like me kona naau iho, a ua hoonoho mai o Iehova ia ia i luna no kona poe kanaka, no kou malama ole i ka mea a Iehova i kauoha mai ai ia oe.
15 And Samuel arose, and ascended from Gilgal unto Gibeah of Benjamin. And Saul numbered the people who were found with him, about six hundred men.
Ku ae la o Samuela, a pii aku la mai Gilegala aku a i Gibea o Beniamina. A helu aku la o Saula i na kanaka me ia, aono paha haneri kanaka.
16 Now, Saul, and Jonathan his son, and the people that were found with him, were abiding in Geba of Benjamin, —but, the Philistines, had encamped in Michmash.
A o Saula a me Ionatana kana keiki, a o na kanaka me laua, noho iho la ma Gibea o Beniamina: aka, hoomoana iho la ko Pilisetia ma Mikemasa.
17 And the spoilers came forth out of the camp of the Philistines, in three companies, the first company, turned unto the way of Ophrah, unto the land of Shual;
Hele mai la ka poe luku, mai ka poe koa o ko Pilisetia mai, ekolu poe: huli ae la kekahi poe ma ke ala o Opera ma ka aina o Suala.
18 and, the second company, turned unto the way of Beth-horon, —and, the third company, turned unto the way of the boundary that overlooketh the valley of Zeboim, towards the wilderness.
Huli ae la kekahi poe ma ke ala o Betahorona; a huli ae kekahi poe ma ke ala o ka mokuna e ku pono ana i ke awawa o Zeboima, ma ka waonahele.
19 Now, a smith, could not be found, throughout all the land of Israel—for the Philistines had said, Lest the Hebrews make sword or spear.
Aole no i loaa ka amara ma ka aina a pau o ka Iseraela; no ka mea, i ae la ko Pilisetia, O hana auanei ka poe Hebera i ka pahikaua, a i ka ihe paha na lakou.
20 So all Israel went down to the Philistines, —to sharpen every man his share, and his mattock, and his axe, and his sickle.
Aka, hele no ka Iseraela a pau i ko Pilisetia e hana'i i kana oopalau, a me kana ho, a me kana koilipi, a me kana oo.
21 Howbeit they had a file for the sickles, and the mattocks, and the three-pronged forks, and the axes, —and for setting the goads.
He apuapu nae ia lakou no ka oopalau, a no na ho, a no na o manamana, a no na koilipi, a no ka hookala i na kui.
22 Thus would it come to pass, in the day of battle, that there was found—neither sword nor spear, in the hand of any of the people, that were with Saul and Jonathan, but such were found belonging to Saul and to Jonathan his son.
A i ka la i kaua ai, aole he pahikaua, aole hoi he ihe ma ka lima o na kanaka me Saula, a me Ionatana: aka, ua loaa ia Saula a me Ionatana kana keiki.
23 Now the garrison of the Philistines had come out to the pass of Michmash.
A hele aku la ka poe koa o ko Pilisetia i ke ala ololi o Mikemasa.
