1 Samuel 28
1 And it came to pass, in those days, when the Philistines gathered together their hosts for war, to fight with Israel, that Achish said unto David, Thou must, know, that, with me, shalt thou go forth in the host, thou and thy men.
Na i aua ra kua huihuia e nga Pirihitini a ratou taua mo te pakanga, hei whawhai ki a Iharaira. Na ka mea a Akihi ki a Rawiri, Kia tino mohio koe me haere tahi taua ki te whawhai, koutou ko au tangata.
2 And David said unto Achish, Therefore, now, shalt thou know what thy servant can do. And Achish said unto David, Therefore, keeper of my head, will I appoint thee, all the days.
Ano ra ko Rawiri ki a Akihi, Ma reira koe ka mohio ai ki nga mahi a tau pononga. A ka mea a Akihi ki a Rawiri, Koia ahau ka mea nei i a koe hei tiaki mo toku upoko i nga ra katoa.
3 Now, Samuel, was dead, and all Israel had lamented him, and buried him in Ramah, even in his own city, —Saul, moreover had put away them who had familiar spirits and them who were oracles, out of the land.
Na, kua mate a Hamuera, kua uhungatia hoki e Iharaira katoa, kua tanumia ki Rama, ki tona pa ake. Kua whakakorea atu hoki e Haora i te whenua te hunga i nga waka atua, i nga rapa maori hoki.
4 So then the Philistines gathered themselves together, and came in, and encamped in Shunem, —and Saul gathered together all Israel, and they encamped in Gilboa.
Na ka huihui nga Pirihitini, a haere mai ana, puni ana ki Huneme; i huihuia ano e Haora a Iharaira katoa, a puni ana ki Kiripoa.
5 And, when Saul saw the host of the Philistines, he was afraid, and his heart trembled exceedingly.
A, no te kitenga o Haora i te taua a nga Pirihitini, ka wehi, tuiri rawa tona ngakau.
6 Then Saul enquired of Yahweh, but Yahweh answered him not, —neither by Dreams, nor by the Lights, nor by prophets.
Na, i te uinga a Haora ki a Ihowa, hore rawa he kupu a Ihowa i whakahokia mai ki a ia, e nga moe, e nga Urimi, e nga poropiti ranei.
7 Then said Saul unto his servants—Seek me out a woman that owneth a familiar spirit, that I may even go unto her, and enquire of her. And his servants said unto him, Lo! there is a woman that owneth a familiar spirit in En-dor.
Katahi a Haora ka mea ki ana tangata, Rapua maku tetahi wahine he atua maori tona kia haere ahau ki a ia ki te rapu tikanga i a ia. Ano ra ko ana tangata ki a ia, Tera tetahi wahine he atua maori tona, kei Eneroro.
8 Saul therefore disguised himself, and put on other raiment, and departed—he and two men with him, and they came to the woman by night, —and he said—Divine for me, I pray thee, by the familiar spirit, and bring up for me—whomsoever I shall name unto thee.
Na ka whakaahua ke a Haora i a ia, a kakahu ana i etahi kakahu ke, haere ana ia me ana tangata tokorua; ka tae ki taua wahine i te po, ka mea atu ia, Tena koa, hirihiria te atua maori, a whakaputaina ake ki ahau taku e ki atu ai.
9 And the woman said unto him—Lo! thou, knowest what Saul hath done, how he hath cut off them who have familiar spirits and him who is an oracle, out of the land, —wherefore, then, art thou striking at my life, to put me to death?
Na ka mea taua wahine ki a ia, Ha, kua mohio ano koe ki ta Haora i mea ai, ki tana hautopenga atu i te hunga atua maori, i nga rapa maori, o te whenua nei; he aha ra koe i mea mahanga mai ai mo toku wairua, kia mate ai ahau?
10 So then Saul sware unto her by Yahweh, saying, —By the life of Yahweh, there shall no punishment befall thee for this thing.
Na ka oatitia a Ihowa e Haora ki a ia, i mea ia, E ora ana a Ihowa, e kore tetahi he e pa ki a koe mo tenei mea.
11 Then said the woman, Whom shall I bring up for thee? And he said, Samuel, bring thou up for me.
Katahi te wahine ka mea, Ko wai kia whakaputaina ake e ahau ki a koe? Ano ra ko ia, Ko Hamuera tau e whakaputa ake ai ki ahau.
12 And, when the woman saw Samuel, she made outcry with a loud voice, —and the woman spake unto Saul, saying—Wherefore hast thou deceived me, thou thyself being Saul?
A, no te kitenga o te wahine i a Hamuera, nui atu tona reo ki te hamama; a ka korero te wahine ki a Haora, ka mea, He aha koe i tinihanga ai ki ahau? ko Haora hoki koe.
13 And the king said unto her—Be not afraid, but what sawest thou? And the woman said unto Saul, A god, saw I, coming up out of the earth.
Na ka mea te kingi ki a ia, Kaua e wehi: i kite hoki koe i te aha? Na ka mea te wahine ki a Haora, Kei te kite ahau i tetahi atua e haere ake ana i te whenua.
14 And he said to her—What was his form? And she said—An old man, coming up, he being wrapped about with a robe. Then Saul knew, that it was, Samuel, so he inclined his face to the earth, and bowed himself down.
Ano ra ko tera ki a ia, He ahua aha tona? Ka mea ia, He koroheke te haere ake nei; he koroka hoki te kakahu. Na ka mohio a Haora ko Hamuera. Tuohu ana tona mata ki te whenua, piko ana ia.
15 And Samuel said unto Saul, Wherefore hast thou disquieted me, by bringing me up? And Saul said—I am in sore distress, for, the Philistines, are making war against me, and, God, hath turned away from me, and answereth me no more—either by means of the prophets, or by dreams, therefore have I even called for thee, to let me know, what I am to do.
Na ka mea a Hamuera ki a Haora, He aha koe i whakaohooho ai i ahau, i mea ai kia haere ake ahau? Ano ra ko Haora, Nui atu toku mate; e whawhai ana hoki nga Pirihitini ki ahau, a kua mahue ahau i te Atua, kahore ake hoki he kupu ana e whakahokia mai ki ahau e nga poropiti, e nga moe ranei; koia ahau i karanga ai ki a koe, hei ako i ahau ki taku e mea ai.
16 Then said Samuel, Wherefore, then, shouldst thou ask me, —when, Yahweh, hath turned away from thee, and hath come to be with thy neighbour?
Katahi a Hamuera ka mea, He aha ra koe i u ai ki ahau, kua mahue nei hoki koe i a Ihowa, hei hoariri ano ia ki a koe?
17 Therefore hath Yahweh done for him, as he spake by me, —yea Yahweh hath rent the kingdom out of thy hand, and given it to a neighbour of thine—to David.
Na kua meatia e Ihowa mona ake tana i whakapuakina e ahau: kua haea atu hoki te kingitanga i tou ringa, kua hoatu ki tou hoa, ara ki a Rawiri.
18 As thou didst not hearken unto the voice of Yahweh, neither didst execute the glow of his anger upon Amalek, therefore, this thing, hath Yahweh done unto thee this day;
Mou kihai i rongo ki te reo o Ihowa, kihai i whakaputa i tona riri aritarita ki a Amareke; na reira a Ihowa i mea ai i tenei mea ki a koe i tenei ra.
19 that Yahweh may deliver, Israel also, with thee, into the hand of the Philistines, and, to-morrow, thou and thy sons with thee are about to fall, —the host of Israel also, will Yahweh deliver, into the hand of the Philistines.
Ko tenei, ka hoatu ano a Iharaira e Ihowa me koe hoki ki te ringa o nga Pirihitini, a apopo koutou ko au tama tae ake ai ki ahau: a ka hoatu e Ihowa te taua a Iharaira ki te ringa o nga Pirihitini.
20 Then Saul hastened, and fell prostrate—the whole length of him—to the earth, and was sore afraid, at the words of Samuel, and indeed, no, strength, was left in him, for he had not eaten food all the day and all the night.
Katahi ka hinga tonu iho a Haora, tona roa katoa ki te whenua, nui rawa hoki tona wehi mo nga kupu a Hamuera: kahore ano he kaha i roto i a ia; kihai hoki ia i kai taro noa pau noa taua ra, pau noa taua po.
21 And the woman came unto Saul, and, when she saw that he was greatly terrified, she said unto him—Lo! thy handmaid hearkened unto thy voice, and I put my life into my hand, and heard thy words which thou didst speak unto me.
Na ka haere taua wahine ki a Haora; a ka kite e pororaru rawa ana ona whakaaro, ka mea ki a ia, Nana, kua whakarongo nei tau pononga ki tou reo, a whakamomori ana ahau ki te mate, whakarongo ana ahau ki au kupu i korerotia e koe ki ahau.
22 Now, therefore, I pray thee, hearken, thou also, unto the voice of thy handmaid, and let me set before thee a morsel of food, and eat thou, —that there may be in thee strength, when thou goest on thy journey.
Na, tena, whakarongo mai hoki aianei ki te reo o tau pononga, Kia whakatakotoria e ahau tetahi wahi taro ki tou aroaro; me kai ano koe, kia whai kaha ai koe ina haere i tou huarahi.
23 But he refused, and said—I will not eat. But, when his servants, and the woman also, strongly urged him, then hearkened he unto their voice, —and rose up from the earth, and sat on the bed.
Otiia i whakakahore ia, i mea, E kore ahau e kai. Heoi tohea ana ia e ana tangata ratou ko te wahine; na ka rongo ia ki to ratou reo, a whakatika ake ana i te whenua, noho ana ki runga ki te moenga.
24 Now, the woman, had a calf fattening, in the shed. So she hastened, and sacrificed it, —and took meal, and kneaded, and baked thereof, unleavened cakes;
Na he kuao kau ta taua wahine i te whare, he mea whangai; na hohoro tonu tana patu, tikina ana e ia he paraoa, pokepokea ana, tunua iho e ia etahi keke rewenakore;
25 and brought near before Saul and before his servants, and they did eat. Then rose they up and departed, the same night.
Kawea mai ana e ia ki te aroaro o Haora, ki te aroaro ano o ana tangata. Na kai ana ratou, a whakatika ana, haere atu ana i taua po.
