2 Samuel 2
1 And it came to pass, after this, that David enquired of Yahweh, saying—Shall I go up into one of the cities of Judah? And Yahweh said unto him, Go up. And David said—Whither shall I go up? And he said—Unto Hebron.
MAHOPE iho o keia mea, ninau aku la o Davida ia Iehova, i aku la, E pii aku anei au i kekahi kulanakauhale o ka Iuda? I mai la o Iehova ia ia, E pii oe. I aku la o Davida, Ai la ihea kahi e pii aku ai au? I mai la kela, I Heberona.
2 So David went up thither, and his two wives also, —Ahinoam, the Jezreelitess, and Abigail, wife of Nabal the Carmelite.
Hele aku la o Davida ilaila, a me kana mau wahine elua, o Ahinoama no Iezereela, a me Abigaila, ka wahine a Nabala no Karemela.
3 His men also who were with him, did David bring up, every man with his household, —and they dwelt in the cities of Hebron.
Lawe pu aku la o Davida i na kanaka ona, ka poe i noho pu me ia, o kela kanaka keia kanaka me kona ohua: a noho iho la lakou ma na kulanakauhale o Heberona.
4 Then came the men of Judah, and anointed David there, to be king over the house of Judah. And they told David, saying, Men of Jabesh-gilead, were they who buried Saul.
Hele mai la na kanaka o ka Iuda, a malaila lakou i poni ai ia ia i alii maluna o ka ohana a Iuda. Hai aku la hoi lakou ia Davida, i aku la, O na kanaka o Iabesa-gileada, ka poe nana i kanu ia Saula.
5 So David sent messengers unto the men of Jabesh-gilead, —and said unto them—Blessed, be ye of Yahweh, that ye did this lovingkindness unto your lord, unto Saul, and buried him.
Hoouna aku la o Davida i na elele i kanaka o Iabesa-gileada, i aku la ia lakou, E alohaia mai oukou e Iehova, no ka mea, ua hana aku oukou i keia lokomaikai i ko oukou haku ia Saula, a ua kanu iho ia ia.
6 Now, therefore, Yahweh requite you with lovingkindness and truth, —moreover also, I, will requite you, for this noble deed, in that ye did this thing.
Ano hoi, e hana mai o Iehova i ka lokomaikai a me ka oiaio ia oukou; owau no hoi e uku aku ia oukou i keia lokomaikai, no ka oukou hana ana i keia mea.
7 Now, therefore, let your hands be made firm, and become ye sons of valour, for your lord Saul is dead, —and, me, moreover have the house of Judah anointed, to be king over them.
Nolaila hoi, e hooikaikaia ko oukou mau lima; i nui ke aho o oukou: no ka mea, ua make ko oukou haku o Saula, a ua poni mai ka ohana a Iuda ia'u i alii maluna o lakou.
8 But, Abner son of Ner, prince of the host that pertained unto Saul, took Ish-bosheth, son of Saul, and brought him over to Mahanaim;
Aka, o Abenera ke keiki a Nera, ke alii koa no ko Saula poe kaua, lalau aku la oia ia Iseboseta ke keikikane a Saula, a lawe aku la ia ia i Mahanaima.
9 and made him king for Gilead, and for the Ashurites, and for Jezreel, —and over Ephraim, and over Benjamin, and over, all Israel.
A hoalii aku la ia ia maluna o ka Gileada, a maluna o ka Asera, maluna hoi o ko Iezereela, a maluna o ka Eperaima, a maluna o ka Beniamina, a maluna hoi o ka Iseraela a pau.
10 Forty years old, was Ish-bosheth son of Saul, when he began to reign over Israel, and, two years, reigned he, —but, the house of Judah, followed David.
He kanaha na makahiki o Iseboseta ke keiki a Saula, i kona wa i noho ai i alii, a elua mau makahiki oia i nohoalii ai. Aka, hahai aku la ka ohana a Iuda mamuli o Davida.
11 And it came to pass, that, the number of the days that David was king in Hebron, over the house of Judah, was seven years and six months.
A o ka manawa i nohoalii ai o Davida ma Heberona maluna o ka ohana a Iuda, ehiku ia mau makahiki a me na malama keu eono.
12 And Abner son of Ner, and the servants of Ish-bosheth, son of Saul, came out from Mahanaim to Gibeon.
Haele mai la o Abenera ke keiki a Nera me na kanaka o Iseboseta ke keiki a Saula, mai Mahanaima mai a Gibeona.
13 And, Joab son of Zeruiah, and the servants of David, went out from Hebron and met, by the pool of Gibeon, together, —and they sat down, these, by the pool, on the one side, and, those, by the pool, on the other side.
Hele aku la hoi o Ioaba ke keiki a Zeruia, me na kanaka o Davida, a halawai pu ae la lakou ma ka punawai o Gibeona; a noho iho la lakou, o kekahi poe ma keia aoao o ka punawai, a o kela poe ma kela aoao o ka punawai.
14 Then said Abner unto Joab, Let the young men arise, I pray thee, and make sport before us. And Joab said—Let them arise.
Olelo mai la o Abenera ia Ioaba, E ku ae na kanaka opionio, a e paani imua o kakou. I aku la o Ioaba, E ku ae lakou.
15 Then there arose, and went over by number, —twelve of Benjamin, pertaining to Ish-bosheth, son of Saul, and twelve, of the servants of David.
Alaila, ku ae la a hele aku la na mea he umikumamalua o ka Beniamina no Iseboseta ke keiki a Saula, a me na kanaka o Davida he umikumamalua.
16 And they caught every one his fellow by the head, with his sword in his fellow’s side, so they fell, together, —and that place was called Helkath-hazzadim ["Field of Plotters"], which is in Gideon.
Lalau aku la kela mea keia mea i kona hoapaio ma ke poo, a hou aku la i kona pahikaua maloko o ka aoao o kona hoapaio, a haule pu iho la lakou a pau: nolaila, ua kapaia kela wahi, Heleka-hazurima; aia no i Gibeona.
17 So the battle became exceeding obstinate, on that day, —and Abner and the men of Israel were defeated before the servants of David.
A he kaua nui no ia la: a ua lukuia o Abenera me na kanaka o ka Iseraela imua o na kanaka o Davida.
18 Now there were there, three sons of Zeruiah, Joab, and Abishai, and Asahel, —and, Asahel, was light of foot as a wild gazelle.
Ilaila na keikikane ekolu a Zeruia, o Ioaba, o Abisai, a o Asahela: a he mama na wawae o Asahela me he dia la o ka nahelehele.
19 And Asahel pursued Abner, —and turned not, in going, to the right hand or to the left, from pursuing Abner.
Alualu aku la o Asahela ia Abenera: a i ka hele ana, aole ia i kapae ma ka akau, aole hoi ma ka hema, mahope o Abenera.
20 Then Abner looked behind him, and said—Art thou Asahel? And he said—I am.
Nana ae la o Abenera mahope ona, i ae la, O Asahela anei oe? I mai la kela, Owau no.
21 Then Abner said to him—Turn thee aside, to thy right hand, or to thy left, and lay thee hold on one of the young men, and take thee his armour. But Asahel would not turn aside from pursuing him.
I aku la o Abenera ia ia, E haliu ae oe ma kou lima akau paha, ma kou hema paha, e lalau aku i kekahi kanaka opiopio, a e lawe nou i kona kahiko ana. Aole nae i manao o Asahela e haliu ae mai ke alualu ana ia ia.
22 And Abner said, yet again, unto Asahel, Turn thee aside from pursuing me, —wherefore should I smite thee to the earth? how then should I lift up my face unto Joab, thy brother?
Olelo hou aku la o Abenera ia Asahela, E haliu ae oe mai o'u aku nei; no ke aha la au e pepehi iho ai ia oe a ka honua? Pehea la hoi e nana pono aku ai kuu maka ia Ioaba kou kaikuaana?
23 Howbeit he refused to turn aside, wherefore Abner smote him with the hinder end of the spear, in the belly, that the spear came out behind him, and he fell there, and died on the spot, —and so it was, that, as many as came up to the place where Asahel fell and died, stood still.
Aka, hoole aku la ia, aole e haliu ae: nolaila, hou aku la o Abenera i ke kumu o ka ihe malalo iho o ka lima o kona iwi aoao, a puka aku la ka ihe ma kona kua: hina iho la ia ilaila, a make iho la ma ia wahi: a o na mea a pau i hiki aku ma kahi i hina iho ai o Asahela a make, ku malie iho la lakou.
24 Then Joab and Abishai pursued Abner, —but, the sun, had gone in by the time, they, had come as far as the hill of Ammah, that overlooketh Giah, by way of the wilderness of Gibeon.
Alualu aku la hoi o Ioaba a me Abisai ia Abenera: a napoo iho la ka la i ko lakou hiki ana aku i ka puu o Ama imua o Gia, ma ka aoao o ka waonahele o Gibeona.
25 And, when the sons of Benjamin had gathered themselves together after Abner, and become one band, —and had taken their stand on the top of a certain hill,
Hoakoakoa pu ae la na mamo a Beniamina mamuli o Abenera, a lilo ae la i hookahi poe, a ku iho la maluna pono o ka puu.
26 then Abner cried aloud unto Joab, and said—To the uttermost, must the sword devour? Dost thou not well know that, bitter, shall it be, in the latter end? How long, then, wilt thou not bid the people turn back from pursuing their own brethren?
Alaila, kahea mai la o Abenera ia Ioaba, i mai la, E ai mau no anei ka pahikaua? Aole anei oe e ike, he mea awaawa no ia ma ka hopena? Pehea la ka loihi, a kena aku oe i na kanaka e uhoi aku mai ke alualu ana ae i ko lakou poe hoahanau?
27 Then said Joab—As God liveth, surely, if thou hadst not spoken, then in the morning, the people would of themselves have gone up, every man from pursuing his brother.
I aku la o Ioaba, Ma ko ke Akua ola ana, ina aole oe i olelo mai, ina ua hoi aku kela kanaka keia kanaka i kakahiaka nei mai ke alualu ana aku i kona hoahanau.
28 So Joab blew with the horn, and all the people stood still, and they neither pursued Israel further, —nor fought any more.
Alaila puhi aku la o Ioaba i ka pu, a ku malie iho la na kanaka a pau, aole i alualu hou aku ia lakou, aole hoi i kaua hou aku lakou.
29 And, Abner and his men, journeyed through the waste plain all that night, —and crossed the Jordan, and went through all the Bithron, and entered Mahanaim.
Haele aku la o Abenera me na kanaka ona ma kahi papu, a hele aku la ma kela aoao o Ioredane, a haele ae la ma Biterona a pau, a hiki aku i Mahanaima.
30 And, Joab, returned from pursuing Abner, and, when he had gathered together all the people, there were missing of the servants of David—nineteen men, and Asahel;
Hoi hou aku la o Ioaba mai ke alualu ana ia Abenera: a hoakoakoa ae la i na kanaka a pau, ua nalo iho na kanaka o Davida he umikumamaiwa a me Asahela.
31 but, the servants of David, had smitten of Benjamin, of the men of Abner, —[so that] three hundred and sixty men, had died.
Aka, ua pepehi aku na kanaka o Davida i ka Beniamina a me na kanaka o Abenera, a make iho la na kanaka ekolu haneri a me kanaono.
32 And they carried Asahel, and buried him in the grave of his father, which was in Bethlehem, —and Joab and his men journeyed all the night, and had daylight in Hebron.
Lawe ae la lakou ia Asahela, a kanu iho la ia ia iloko o ka hale kupapau o kona makuakane i Betelehema. Haele aku la o Ioaba me na kanaka ona ia po a pau, a hiki aku la i Heberona i ka wanaao.
