2 Samuel 19
1 Joab was told, “Look, the king is weeping and mourning for Absalom.”
U A haiia'ku ia Ioaba, Aia ke uwe nei ke alii, a ke kanikau nei oia no Abesaloma.
2 So the victory that day was turned into mourning for all the army, for the army heard it said that day, “The king is mourning for his son.”
Ia la, lilo ae la ke ola i mea e kanikau ai o na kanaka a pau: no ka mea, ua lohe na kanaka ia la, i ka haiia mai o ka uwe ana o ke alii no kana keiki.
3 The soldiers had to sneak quietly into the city that day, like people who are ashamed sneak away when they run from battle.
A hoi malu aku la na kanaka iloko o ke kulanakauhale ia la, e like me na kanaka hilahila e holo malu aku, ke hee lakou i ke kaua.
4 The king covered his face and cried in a loud voice, “My son Absalom, Absalom, my son, my son!”
Aka, o ke alii, pulou iho la ia i kona maka, a uwe aku la ke alii me ka leo nui, E kuu keiki e Abesaloma e! e Abesaloma kuu keiki, kuu keiki e!
5 Then Joab entered into the house to the king and said to him, “You have shamed the faces of all your soldiers today, who have saved your life today, and the lives of your sons and of your daughters, and the lives of your wives, and the lives of your slave wives,
Hele aku la o Ioaba iloko o ka hale i ke alii, i aku la, Ua hoohilahila oe i keia la i na maka o kau poe kauwa a pau, o ka poe nana i malama i kou ola, a me ke ola o kau mau keikikane, a me kau mau kaikamahine, a me ke ola o kau mau wahine, a me ke ola o kau mau haiawahine;
6 because you love those who hate you, and you hate those who love you. For today you have shown that commanders and soldiers are nothing to you. Today I believe that if Absalom had lived, and we all had died, then that would have pleased you.
Ma kou aloha ana aku i kou poe enemi, a me ka hoowahawaha ana i kou poe hoalauna: no ka mea, ua hoike mai oe i keia la, he mea ole ia oe na alii a me na kauwa: a ke ike nei au i keia la, ina paha i ola o Abesaloma, a make makou a pau i keia la, ina ua oluolu io no oe.
7 Now therefore get up and go out and speak kindly to your soldiers, for I swear by Yahweh, if you do not go, not one man will remain with you tonight. That would be worse for you than all the disasters that have ever happened to you from your youth until now.”
Ano hoi, e ala'e oe, e hele iwaho, a e olelo hooluolu aku i kau poe kauwa. Ke hoohiki aku nei au ma o Iehova la, a i hele ole aku oe, aole e noho kekahi me oe i neia po; a e ino loa aku ia mea, i na mea ino a pau i hiki mai iou la mai kou wa opiopio a hiki ia nei.
8 So the king got up and sat in the city gate, and all the people were told, “Look, the king is sitting in the gate,” and all the people came before the king. So Israel fled, every man to his home.
Alaila ala'e la ke alii, a noho iho la ma ka ipuka o ka pa. Hai aku la lakou i na kanaka a panu, Aia hoi, ke noho mai la ke alii ma ka ipuka. A hele mai la na kanaka a pau imua o ke alii; no ka mea, ua mahuka aku la ka Iseraela o kela kanaka keia kanaka a pau i kona halelewa iho.
9 All the people were arguing with each other throughout all the tribes of Israel saying, “The king rescued us out of the hand of our enemies, and he saved us out of the hand of the Philistines, but now he has run out of the land because of Absalom.
Hoopaapaa ae la na kanaka a pau ma na ohana a pau o ka Iseraela, i ae la, Ua hoola mai ke alii ia kakou mai ka lima ae o ko kakou poe enemi, a ua hoopakele hoi oia ia kakou mai ka lima ae o ko Pilisetia: ano hoi, ua holo aku no ia mawaho o ka aina no Abesaloma.
10 Absalom, whom we anointed over us, has died in battle. So why do you say nothing about bringing the king back?”
A o Abesaloma ka mea a kakou i poni ai i alii maluna o kakou, ua make ia iloko o ke kaua: heaha hoi ka mea e olelo ole aku ai oukou i kekahi huaolelo no ka hoihoi ana mai i ke alii?
11 King David sent to Zadok and to Abiathar the priests saying, “Speak to the elders of Judah saying, 'Why are you the last to bring the king back to his palace, since the talk of all Israel favors the king, to bring him back to his palace?
Hoouna aku la o Davida ke alii io Zadoka la a me Abiatara na kahuna, i aku la, E olelo aku olua i na lunakahiko o ka Iuda, e i aku, No ke aha la e lohi loa nei oukou i ka hoihoi ana mai i ke alii i kona hale? no ka mea, ua hiki mai ka olelo a ka Iseraela a pau i ke alii, a i kona ohana.
12 You are my brothers, my flesh and bone. Why then are you the last to bring back the king?'
Oukou no na hoahanau o'u, oukou no ko'u mau iwi a me ko'u io; no ke aha hoi e lohi loa nei oukou i ka hoihoi aku i ke alii?
13 Then say to Amasa, 'Are you not my flesh and my bone? God do so to me, and more also, if you are not captain of my army from now on in the place of Joab.'”
E i aku hoi olua ia Amasa, Aole anei oe no kuu iwi a me kuu io? Pela ke Akua e hana mai ai ia'u, a nui aku, i ole oe ka lunakaua mau imua o'u ma ko Ioaba wahi.
14 So he won the hearts of all the men of Judah as one man. They sent to the king saying, “Return, you and all your men.”
Hoohuli mai la kela i ka naau o na kanaka a pau o ka Iuda, e like me ko ke kanaka hookahi; nolaila, olelo aku la lakou i ke alii, E hoi hou mai oe a me au mau kauwa a pau.
15 So the king returned and came to the Jordan. Now the men of Judah came to Gilgal to go to meet the king and then to bring the king across the Jordan.
Alaila hoi mai la ke alii, a hiki mai i Ioredane. A hele mai la ka Iuda i Gilegala e halawai me ke alii, a e alakai i ke alii ma keia aoao o Ioredane.
16 Shimei son of Gera, the Benjamite, who was from Bahurim, hurried down with the men of Judah to meet King David.
Ao Simei ke keiki a Gera, he mamo na Beniamina no Bahurima, wikiwiki ae la ia a iho pu aku la me na kanaka o ka Iuda e halawai me ke alii me Davida.
17 There were one thousand men from Benjamin with him, and Ziba the servant of Saul, and his fifteen sons and twenty servants with him. They crossed through the Jordan in the presence of the king.
Me ia pu na kanaka o ka Beniamina he tausani, a o Ziba ke kauwa na ka ohana a Saula, a me ia hoi na keikikane ana he umikumamalima, a me na kauwa ana he iwakalua: hele mai la lakou ma keia aoao o Ioredane imua o ke alii.
18 They crossed to bring over the king's family and to do whatever he thought good. Shimei son of Gera bowed down before the king just before he began to cross the Jordan.
A holo ae la ka waapa e alo mai i ko ka hale o ke alii, a e lawelawe hoi i ka mea a ke alii i manao ai he pono. Moe iho la o Simei ke keiki a Gera imua o ke alii i kona pae ana i keia aoao o Ioredane.
19 Shimei said to the king, “Do not, my master, find me guilty or call to mind the wrong your servant did the day my master the king left Jerusalem. Please, may the king not take it to heart.
I mai la ia i ke alii, mai manao hewa mai kuu haku ia'u, aole hoi e hoomauhala i ka mea a kau kauwa i hana kolohe aku ai i ka la a kuu haku a ke alii i puka mai ai iwaho o Ierusalema, i waiho ai ke alii ia mea maloko o kona naau.
20 For your servant knows that I have sinned. See, that is why I have come today as the first from all the family of Joseph to come down to meet my master the king.”
No ka mea, ke ike nei kau kauwa; ua hana hewa no wau: nolaila, eia au i hele mai nei, ka mea mua o ka ohana a Iosepa, i iho mai e halawai me kuu haku me ke alii.
21 But Abishai son of Zeruiah answered and said, “Should not Shimei be put to death for this, because he cursed Yahweh's anointed?”
Olelo mai la o Abisai ke keiki a Zeruia, i mai la, Aole anei e make o Simei ia mea; no ka mea, ua hoino mai ia i ka Iehova mea i poniia?
22 Then David said, “What have I to do with you, you sons of Zeruiah, that you should today be adversaries to me? Will any man be put to death today in Israel? For do I not know that today I am king over Israel?”
I aku la o Davida, Heaha ka'u ia olua, e na keiki a Zeruia, i ku e mai ai olua ia'u i keia la? E make anei kekahi kanaka i keia la iloko o ka Iseraela? Aole anei au i ike, owau no ke alii i keia la maluna o ka Iseraela?
23 So the king said to Shimei, “You will not die.” So the king promised him with an oath.
I aku la ke alii ia Simei, Aole oe e make: a hoohiki aku la ke alii ia ia.
24 Then Mephibosheth son of Saul came down to meet the king. He had not dressed his feet, or trimmed his beard, or washed his clothes from the day the king left until the day he came home in peace.
Iho aku la hoi o Mepiboseta ka moopuna a Saula e halawai me ke alii; aole ia i hooponopono i kona mau wawae, aole i hoomaikai i kona umiumi, aole no hoi i holoi i kona kapa, mai ka la i hele aku ai ke alii, a hiki i ka la i hoi hou mai ai ia me ka malu.
25 So when he came from Jerusalem to meet the king, the king said to him, “Why did you not go with me, Mephibosheth?”
A hiki mai la ia i Ierusalema e halawai me ke alii, i aku la ke alii ia ia, E Mepiboseta, heaha kau i hele pu ole ai me au?
26 He answered, “My master the king, my servant deceived me, for I said, 'I will saddle a donkey so I may ride on it and go with the king, because your servant is lame.'
I mai la kela, E kuu haku, e ke alii, ua hoopunipuni mai kuu kauwa ia'u: no ka mea, i aku la kau kauwa, e hoee aku no au i ka noho maluna o ka hoki no'u, i holo ai au maluna, a hele aku i ke alii; no ka mea, he oopa kau kauwa.
27 My servant Ziba has slandered me, your servant, to my master the king. But my master the king is like an angel of God. Therefore, do what is good in your eyes.
A ua alapahi kela i kau kauwa imua o kuu haku o ke alii; a ua like kuu haku ke alii me ka anela o ke Akua; nolaila, e hana aku oe i ka mea pono ma kou maka.
28 For all my father's house were dead men before my master the king, but you set your servant among those who ate at your own table. What right therefore have I that I should still cry any more to the king?”
No ka mea, ua like me na kanaka make ka poe ohana a pau o kuu kupunakane imua o kuu haku o ke alii; aka, ua hoonoho oe i kau kauwa iwaena o ka poe nana i ai ma kou papaaina iho: heaha hoi kuu pono e kahea hou aku ai i ke alii?
29 Then the king said to him, “Why explain anything further? I have decided that you and Ziba will divide the fields.”
I aku la ke alii ia ia, No ke aha oe e olelo hou mai nei no kau mau mea? Ua olelo aku no wau, E hoolike a like olua me Ziba i ka aina.
30 So Mephibosheth replied to the king, “Yes, let him take it all, since my master the king has come safely to his own home.”
I mai la o Mepiboseta i ke alii, Ae, e lawe kela nona i na mea a pau: no ka mea, ua hoi hou mai nei kuu haku ke alii i kona hale me ka malu.
31 Then Barzillai the Gileadite came down from Rogelim to cross over the Jordan with the king, and he accompanied the king over the Jordan.
Iho mai la hoi o Barezilai no Gileada mai Rogelima mai a hele pu mai me ke alii ma keia kapa o Ioredane, e alakai ia ia ma neia aoao o Ioredane.
32 Now Barzillai was a very old man, eighty years old. He had furnished the king with provisions while he stayed at Mahanaim, for he was a very wealthy man.
He kanaka elemakule o Barezilai; he kanawalu kona mau makahiki: a hanai aku la ia i ke alii i kona wa i noho ai ma Mahanaima; no ka mea, he kanaka koikoi nui loa ia.
33 The king said to Barzillai, “Come over with me, and I will provide for you to stay with me in Jerusalem.”
I aku la ke alii ia Barezilai, E hele pu oe me au, a e hanai aku no au ia oe ma Ierusalema.
34 Barzillai replied to the king, “How many days are left in the years of my life, that I should go up with the king to Jerusalem?
I mai la o Barezilai i ke alii, Ehia mau la o kuu ola e koe, i pii aku ai au me ke alii i Ierusalema?
35 I am eighty years old. Can I distinguish between good and bad? Can your servant taste what I eat or what I drink? Can I hear any more the voice of singing men and singing women? Why then should your servant be a burden to my master the king?
He kanawalu na makahiki o'u i keia la; e hiki anei ia'u ke ike mawaena o ka pono a me ka hewa? Ua ono anei i kau kauwa ka'u mea e ai ai, a me ka'u mea e inu ai? e lohe hou anei au i ka leo o na kane mea mele a me na wahine mea mele? no ke aha hoi e hookaumaha aku ai kau kauwa i kuu haku i ke alii?
36 Your servant would like to just go over the Jordan with the king. Why should the king repay me with such a reward?
E hele ana kau kauwa ma o iki aku o Ioredane me ke alii: no ke aha hoi e hoouku mai ai ke alii ia'u ia uku nui?
37 Please let your servant return back home, so I may die in my own city by the grave of my father and my mother. But see, here is your servant Kimham. Let him cross over with my master the king, and do for him what seems good to you.”
Ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e ae mai oe i kau kauwa e hoi hou aku ia, i make au maloko o kuu kulanakauhale, ma ka halekupapau o kuu makuakane a me uku makuwahine. Aka, eia hoi kau kauwa o Kimehama; e aho e hele pu ia me kuu haku me ke alii; e hana aku oe ia ia e like me ka mea pono ia oe.
38 The king answered, “Kimham will go over with me, and I will do for him what seems good to you, and whatever you desire from me, I do that for you.”
I aku la ke alii, E hele pu o Kimehama me au, a e hana aku au ia ia ma ka mea pono ia oe: a o ka mea au e makemake mai ai ia'u, oia ka'u e hana aku ai nou.
39 Then all the people crossed the Jordan, and the king crossed over, and the king kissed Barzillai and blessed him. Then Barzillai returned to his own home.
Hele mai la na kanaka a pau ma neia aoao o Ioredane. A pae mai ke alii, alaila honi ae la ke alii ia Barezilai, a hoomaikai aku la ia ia, a hoi hou aku la ia i kona wahi.
40 So the king crossed over to Gilgal, and Kimham crossed over with him. All the army of Judah brought the king over, and also half the army of Israel.
Alaila hele aku la ke alii i Gilegala, a hele pu aku la o Kimehama me ia: a alakai aku la na kanaka a pau o ka Iuda i ke alii, a pela hoi kekahi hapa o na kanaka o ka Iseraela.
41 Soon all the men of Israel began to come to the king and say to the king, “Why have our brothers, the men of Judah, stolen you away and brought the king and his family over the Jordan, and all David's men with him?”
Aia hoi, hele mai la na kanaka a pau o ka Iseraela i ke alii, i aku la i ke alii, No ke aha la i aihue aku ai ko makou mau hoahanau na kanaka o ka Iuda ia oe, a ua kai mai i ke alii a me ko ka hale ona, a me na kanaka o Davida a pau me ia ma keia kapa o Ioredane?
42 So the men of Judah answered the men of Israel, “It is because the king is more closely related to us. Why then are you angry about this? Have we eaten anything that the king had to pay for? Has he given us any gifts?”
Olelo aku la na kanaka a pau o ka Iuda i na kanaka o ka Iseraela, no ka mea, ua hookahi kona hanauna me ko makou; heaha ka oukou e huhu mai nei ia mea? Ua ai iki anei makou i ka ke alii? a ua haawi mai anei ia i ka manawalea ia makou?
43 The men of Israel answered the men of Judah, “We have ten tribes related to the king, so we have even more right to David than you. Why then did you despise us? Was not our proposal to bring back our king the first to be heard?” But the words of the men of Judah were even more harsh than the words of the men of Israel.
Olelo aku la na kanaka o ka Iseraela i na kanaka o ka Iuda, i ae la, He umi mau hakina o ke alii ka makou, a he nui aku ka makou ia Davida i ka oukou: no ke aha hoi oukou i hoowahawaha ai ia makou, i lilo ole ka makou olelo no ka hoihoi ana mai i ke alii i ka mea mua? A o ka olelo ana a na kanaka o ka Iuda, he ikaika aku ia i ka olelo ana a na kanaka o ka Iseraela.
