2 Samuel 16
1 When David [and the others] had gone a little way past the top of the hill, Mephibosheth’s servant Ziba met him. He had with him two donkeys that were carrying 200 loaves of bread, 100 bunches/clusters of raisins, 100 bunches of fresh fruit, and a leather bag full of wine.
A HALA iki aku la o Davida mai kahi kiekie o ka puu aku, aia hoi, halawai mai la me ia o Ziba ke kauwa a Mepiboseta, me na hoki elua i hoeeia e na noho, a maluna iho o laua elua haneri pai berena, me na huiwaina maloo he haneri, me na ope huafiku maloo he haneri, a me kekahi huewaina.
2 The king said to Ziba, “What are these for?” Ziba replied, “The donkeys are for your family to ride on, the bread and the fruit are for your soldiers to eat, and the wine is for them to drink when they become exhausted in the desert.”
Ninau aku la ke alii ia Ziba, I me aha keia mau mea ia oe? I mai la o Ziba, O na hoki, no na ohua o ke alii ia e holo ia; a o ka berena a me ka hua maloo, na na kanaka opiopio ia e ai ai; a o ka waina, no ka poe nawaliwali ia e inu ai ma ka waonahele.
3 The king said, “Where is Mephibosheth, the grandson of your [former] master [Saul]?” Ziba [deceived David by] saying, “He stayed in Jerusalem, because he thinks that now the Israeli people will allow him to rule the kingdom that his grandfather Saul ruled.”
Ninau aku la ke alii, Auhea la ke keiki a kou haku? I aku la o Ziba i ke alii, Aia no e noho la ma Ierusalema: no ka mea, i aku la ia, I keia la e hoihoi mai ana ka ohana a Iseraela i ke aupuni o ko'u kupunakane no'u.
4 The king said to Ziba, “Okay, everything that belonged to Mephibosheth is now yours.” Ziba replied, “Your Majesty, I will humbly serve you; and I desire/hope that you will always be pleased with me.”
Alaila, i mai la ke alii ia Ziba, Aia hoi, nou no na mea a pau i pili no Mepiboseta. I aku la o Ziba, Ke noi haahaa aku nei au ia oe, i loaa ia'u ke aloha imua o kou maka, e kuu haku, e ke alii e.
5 When King David [and those with him] arrived at Bahurim [town], a man named Shimei met him. Shimei, whose father was Gera, was one of Saul’s relatives. Shimei was cursing David as he approached.
A hiki aku la o Davida ke alii i Bahurima, Aia hoi, puka mai la iwaho kekahi kanaka no ka ohana a Saula, o Simei kona inoa, o ke keiki a Gera; hele mai la ia iwaho, a kuamuamu mai la i kona hele ana mai.
6 Then he threw stones at David and his officials, even though the officials and David’s bodyguards surrounded David.
Nou aku la ia i na pohaku ia Davida, a i na kauwa a ke alii a Davida: ma kona akau a ma kona hema ka poe kanaka a pau, a me ka poe koa a pau.
7 Shimei cursed David and said to him, “Get out of here, you murderer, you scoundrel!
Penei ka Simei i olelo ai i kana kuamuamu ana, E puka oe iwaho, e puka oe iwaho, e ke kanaka koko, ke kanaka Beliala.
8 Yahweh is (getting revenge on/punishing) you all for murdering [MTY] many people in Saul’s family. And now he is giving Saul’s kingdom to your son Absalom. You murderer, you are being paid back for the many people that you have killed/murdered [MTY]!”
Ua hoopai mai o Iehova maluna iho ou i ke koko a pau o ka ohana a Saula, nona kou wahi i nohoalii ai: a na haawi aku o Iehova i ke aapuni iloko o ka lima o Abesaloma o kau keiki: aia hoi oe maloko o kou kolohe, no ka mea, he kanaka koko oe.
9 Then Abishai said to the king, “Your Majesty, this man is [as worthless as] [MET] a dead dog! (Why should he be allowed to curse you?/He should not be allowed to curse you.) [RHQ] Allow me to go over there and cut off his head!”
Alaila, i aku la o Abisai ke keiki a Zeruia i ke alii, No ke aha la e kuamuamu mai ai keia ilio make i kuu haku i ke alii? E hele aku paha wau i o, a e oki ae i kona poo.
10 But the king replied, “You two sons of Zeruiah, (do not tell me what to do/this does not concern you) [RHQ]. If he is cursing me because Yahweh told him to do that, certainly no one should say ‘(Why are you doing that?/You should not be doing that.) [RHQ]’”
I mai la ke alii, Heaha ka'u ia olua, e na keiki a Zeruia? E kuamuamu mai no oia pela; no ka mea, ua olelo mai no o Iehova ia ia, e kuamuamu ia Davida. Owai hoi ke olelo aku, No ke aha la oe i hana'i pela?
11 Then David said to Abishai and to all his officials, “You know that my own son is trying to kill me. So [it is not surprising that] this man from the tribe of Benjamin is also trying to kill me. So ignore him, and allow him to curse me, because [perhaps he thinks that] Yahweh told him to do that.
I aku la o Davida ia Abisai a me kana poe kauwa a pau, Aia hoi ka'u keiki, ka mea i puka ae mailoko aku o'u, ua imi mai kela i kuu ola: e oiaio no hoi keia mamo a Beniamina. E waiho pela, e aho oia ke kuamuamu mai; no ka mea, ua olelo mai o Iehova ia ia.
12 Perhaps Yahweh will see that I am having all this trouble, and [some day he will repay me by] (blessing/doing good things for) me in return for this man cursing me today.”
Malia paha e nana mai o Iehova i kuu ehaeha, a e hoomaikai paha o Iehova ia'u no kana kuamuamu ana mai i keia la.
13 Then David and those who were with him walked along the road, and Shimei continued walking along the hillside near him. While he walked along, he cursed David and threw stones and dirt at him.
A i ka hele ana o Davida a me na kanaka ona ma ke ala, hele aku la hoi o Simei ma ka aoao o ka puu e ku pono ana ia ia; a i kona hele ana, kuamuamu mai la ia, nou mai la i na pohaku ia ia, a hoolei mai la hoi i ka lepo.
14 When David and those who were with him arrived at the Jordan [River], they were very tired. So they rested there.
Maluhiluhi iho la ke alii a me ka poe kanaka a pau me ia, a hoomaha iho la ilaila.
15 While that was happening, Absalom and all the Israeli people who were with him had arrived in Jerusalem. Ahithophel had also arrived there.
Hele mai la o Abesaloma a me na kanaka a pau o ka Iseraela i Ierusalema, a o Ahitopela kekahi me ia.
16 When David’s friend Hushai came to Absalom, he said to Absalom, “I desire/hope that the king will live a long time! May you live for many years!”
A hiki aku la hoi o Husai no Areki, ka hoalauna o Davida io Abesaloma la, i aku la o Husai ia Abesaloma, E ola ke alii, e ola ke alii.
17 Absalom said to Hushai, “You have been loyal [RHQ] to your friend [David for a long time]. So why did you not go with him [instead of coming to me]?”
I mai la o Abesaloma ia Husai, Oia anei kou aloha i kou hoalauna? Heaha hoi kau i hele ole aku ai me kou hoalauna?
18 Hushai replied, “I will serve the one whom Yahweh and these people and all the other people of Israel have chosen [to be their king]. So I will stay with you.
I aku la o Husai ia Abesaloma, Aole, o ka mea a Iehova, a o keia poe kanaka, a o na kanaka o ka Iseraela a pau e koho ai, nona no wau, a e noho pu au me ia.
19 You are my master [King David’s] son; if I do not serve you, what other man should I serve [RHQ]? I will serve you as I served your father.”
Nawai la hoi au e hookauwa aku ai, ke ole ma ke alo o kana keiki? Me au i hookauwa aku ai ma ke alo o kou makuakane, pela hoi au e hookauwa aku ai ma Kou alo.
20 Then Absalom said to Ahithophel, “What do you advise that we should do?”
Alaila, i mai la o Abesaloma ia Ahitopela, E kukakuka oukou i ka mea a kakou e hana aku ai.
21 Ahithophel replied, “Your father left some of his slave wives in the palace to take care of it. Have sex [EUP] with them. When everyone in Israel hears that you have done that, they will realize that you are acting very contemptuously toward your father. Then all those who are with you will be very encouraged.”
I aku la o Ahitopela ia Abesaloma, E komo aku oe iloko i na haiawahine a kou makuakane, ana i waiho ai e kiai i ka hale; a e lohe ka Iseraela a pau e hoowahawahaia oe e kou makuakane, alaila e ikaika ai na lima o ka poe a pau me oe.
22 So they set up a tent for Absalom on the roof [of the palace]. And Absalom went into the tent and had sex [EUP] with his father’s slave wives, [one by one, ] and everyone [HYP] could see [him going into the tent].
Nolaila, kukulu lakou i haleole no Abesaloma maluna o ka hale; a komo aku la o Abesaloma maloko i na haiawahine a kona makuakane, imua o ka Iseraela a pau.
23 In those days, people accepted what Ahithophel recommended as though he were speaking the words of God. So just as David had always accepted what Ahithophel said, now Absalom did also.
A o ka oleloao a Ahitopela i olelo aku ai ia mau la, ua like ia me ka ke Akua olelo a ke kanaka i ninau aku ai: pela no ka oleloao a pau a Ahitopela ia Davida a me Abesaloma.
