Judges 11
1 Now, Jephthah the Gileadite, was a mighty man of valour, but, he, was the son of an unchaste woman, —yet Gilead was 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 And the wife of Gilead bare him sons, —and, when the wife’s sons grew up, they thrust out Jephthah, and said unto him—Thou shalt not inherit with the house of our father, for, son of an alien woman, art thou.
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 So Jephthah fled from the face of his brethren, and dwelt in the land of Tob, —and there gathered about Jephthah unemployed men, who went forth 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 And so it came to pass, after a time, —that the sons of Ammon made war with Israel.
A mahope iho o ia mau la, kaua aku la na mamo a Amona i ka Iseraela.
5 When, therefore, it came to pass that the sons of Ammon made war with Israel, then went the elders of Gilead, to summon 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, Oh! come and be our commander, —that we may do battle with the sons 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 But Jephthah said to the elders of Gilead, Have not, ye, hated me, and thrust me out from the house of my father? Wherefore then, are ye come unto me, now, when ye 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 And the elders of Gilead said unto Jephthah—Therefore, have we, now, returned unto thee, that, if thou go with us, and do battle with the sons of Ammon, then shalt thou become our head, for 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 And Jephthah said unto the elders of Gilead—If ye do bring me back to do battle with the sons of Ammon, and Yahweh deliver them up before me, shall, I myself, become 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 And the elders of Gilead said unto Jephthah—Yahweh himself, will be hearkening between us, if, according to thy word, so, we do not.
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 went Jephthah with the elders of Gilead, and the people set him over them, as head and commander, —and Jephthah spake all his words before Yahweh, 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 So then Jephthah sent messengers unto the king of the sons of Ammon, saying, —What occasion is there between us, that thou shouldst have come unto 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 sons of Ammon said unto the messengers of Jephthah—Because Israel took away my land, when they came up out of Egypt, from Arnon even unto the Jabbok, and unto the Jordan, —now, therefore, restore them in peace.
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 Jephthah yet once more sent messengers unto the king of the sons of Ammon;
Hoouna hou aku la o Iepeta i elele i ke alii o na mamo a Amona:
15 and said unto him, Thus, saith Jephthah, —Israel took not away the land of Moab, or the land of the sons 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 for, when they came up out of Egypt, and Israel journeyed through the desert as far as the Red Sea, and came in unto 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 did Israel send messengers unto the king of Edom, saying—Let me pass, I pray thee, through thy land, but the king of Edom hearkened not, unto the king of Moab also, sent they, but he would not consent, —so Israel abode 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 journeyed they through the desert, and went round the land of Edom, and the land of Moab, and so came, from the rising of the sun, to the land of Moab, but encamped beyond Arnon, —and entered not within the boundary of Moab, for, Arnon, is 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 Then did Israel send messengers unto Sihon king of the Amorites, king of Heshbon, —and Israel said unto him, Let us pass, we pray thee, through thy land as far as my own place.
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 trusted not Israel, to pass through his boundary, so Sihon gathered together all his people, and encamped 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 Then did Yahweh, God of Israel, deliver up Sihon, and all his people, into the hand of Israel, and they smote them, —so Israel took possession of all the land of the Amorites, the inhabitants of that land.
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 Yea they took possession of all the territory of the Amorites, —from Arnon, even as far as the Jabbok, and from the desert, even as far as 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 Now, therefore, it was, Yahweh God of Israel, that dispossessed the Amorites from before his people Israel, —and shalt, thou, possess it?
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 What Chemosh thy god giveth thee to possess, that, wilt thou not possess? and, whatsoever Yahweh our God hath set before us to possess, that, shall we not 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 Now, therefore, art thou, really better, than Balak son of Zippor, king of Moab? Hath there been any, striving at all, with Israel, or any, fighting at all, with 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 all the time that Israel hath been dwelling in Heshbon and in her towns, and in Aroer and in her towns, and in all the cities that are on the banks of Arnon, —for three hundred years? Wherefore, then, have ye not made a rescue 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 thee; but, thou, art doing me a wrong, in fighting against me, —Let Yahweh, the Judge, give judgment today, between the sons of Israel, and the sons 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 But the king of the sons of Ammon hearkened not unto the words of Jephthah, which he sent unto him.
Aole hoolohe ke alii o na mamo a Amona i na olelo a Iepeta ana i hoouna aku ai ia ia.
29 Then came upon Jephthah the spirit of Yahweh, and he passed through Gilead and Manasseh, —and passed through Mizpeh of Gilead, and, from Mizpeh of Gilead, he passed through [unto] the sons 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 And Jephthah vowed a vow unto Yahweh, and said, —If thou wilt, deliver, the sons 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 shall it be, that, whosoever cometh forth out of the doors of my house, to meet me, when I return successful, from the sons of Ammon, shall belong unto Yahweh, and I will offer him up, as an ascending-sacrifice.
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 then Jephthah passed over unto the sons of Ammon, to fight against them, —and Yahweh 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 and he smote them, from Aroer even till thou enterest in to Minnith, even twenty cities, and as far as Abel-keramim, with an exceeding great smiting, —and thus were the sons of Ammon subdued before the sons 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 Then came Jephthah towards Mizpah, unto his own house, and lo! his daughter, coming forth to meet him, with timbrels, and with dances, —and, she, was none other than his only child, he had not, besides her, either son or 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 came to pass, when he saw her, that he rent his clothes, and said—Alas! my daughter, Thou hast, brought me low, Even, thou, hast come to be among them who trouble me, —Yet, I, opened wide my mouth unto Yahweh, and cannot go back.
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 And she said unto him—My father! Thou hast opened wide thy mouth unto Yahweh, Do with me, according to that which hath gone forth out of thy mouth, —after that Yahweh hath exacted for thee an avenging from thine enemies, from the sons 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 And she said unto her father, Let this thing, be done for me, —Let me alone two months, that I may depart, and go down upon the mountains, and bewail 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 And he said—Depart. So he let her go, for two months, —and she departed, she and her companions, and bewailed her virginity, upon 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 And it came to pass, at the end of two months, that she returned unto her father, and he fulfilled on her his vow which he had vowed, —she not having known man. And it became a statute, 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 From year to year, departed the daughters of Israel, to lament aloud for the daughter of Jephthah, the Gileadite, four days in the year.
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
