< 1 Samuel 23 >

1 Then they told David, saying, Behold, the Philistines fight against Keilah, and they rob the threshing-floors.
A LAILA hai aku la lakou ia Davida, i aku la, Aia hoi, ke kaua mai nei ko Pilisetia i Keila, a hao wale lakou ma kahi hehi palaoa.
2 Therefore David inquired of the LORD, saying, Shall I go and smite these Philistines? And the LORD said to David, Go, and smite the Philistines, and save Keilah.
No ia mea, ninau aku la o Davida ia Iehova, i aku la, E hele anei au e pepehi i keia poe o ko Pilisetia? I mai la o Iehova ia Davida, O hele a pepehi aku i ko Pilisetia, a e hoopakele i ko Keila.
3 And David's men said to him, Behold, we are afraid here in Judah: how much more then if we come to Keilah against the armies of the Philistines?
Olelo mai na kanaka o Davida ia ia, Aia hoi, ke makau nei kakou maanei maloko o ka Iuda: aole anei he nui aku, ke hele kakou ma Keila e ku e i ka poe kaua no ko Pilisetia?
4 Then David inquired of the LORD yet again. And the LORD answered him and said, Arise, go down to Keilah; for I will deliver the Philistines into thy hand.
A ninau hou aku la o Davida ia Iehova. Olelo mai la o Iehova ia ia, i mai la, E ku ae e hele ma Keila; no ka mea, e hoolilo au i ko Pilisetia iloko o kou lima.
5 So David and his men went to Keilah, and fought with the Philistines, and brought away their cattle, and smote them with a great slaughter. So David saved the inhabitants of Keilah.
A hele aku la o Davida me kona poe kanaka ma Keila, a kaua aku i ko Pilisetia, a lawe aku i ko lakou holoholona, a pepehi aku ia lakou me ka luku nui. A hoopakele o Davida i na kanaka o Keila.
6 And it came to pass, when Abiathar the son of Ahimelech fled to David to Keilah, [that] he came down [with] an ephod in his hand.
A i ka holo ana o Abiatara ke keiki a Ahimeleka io Davida la i Keila, ua hele no ia me ka epoda ma kona lima.
7 And it was told to Saul that David had come to Keilah. And Saul said, God hath delivered him into my hand; for he is shut in, by entering into a town that hath gates and bars.
Ua haiia ia Saula ko Davida hele ana ma Keila. I mai la o Saula, Ua hoolilo mai ke Akua ia ia iloko o kuu lima; no ka mea, ua paa ia maloko, i kona komo ana i ke kulanakauhale i paa i na ipuka a me na kaola.
8 And Saul called all the people together to war, to go down to Keilah, to besiege David and his men.
Houluulu ae la o Saula i na kanaka a pau i ke kaua, o hele ma Keila, e hoopaa aku ia Davida a me kona poe kanaka.
9 And David knew that Saul secretly plotted mischief against him; and he said to Abiathar the priest, Bring hither the ephod.
A ike iho la o Davida, ua manao ino malu mai o Saula ia ia; i aku la oia ia Abiatara ke kahuna, E lawe mai i ka epoda.
10 Then said David, O LORD God of Israel, thy servant hath certainly heard that Saul seeketh to come to Keilah, to destroy the city for my sake.
Alaila i aku la o Davida, E Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela, ua lohe akaka iho nei kau kauwa i ka manao ana o Saula e hele mai nei i Keila e luku i ke kulanakauhale no'u nei.
11 Will the men of Keilah deliver me up into his hand? will Saul come down as thy servant hath heard? O LORD God of Israel, I beseech thee, tell thy servant. And the LORD said, He will come down.
E haawi anei na kanaka o Keila ia'u iloko o kona lima? E iho mai anei o Saula e like me kau kauwa i lohe ai? E Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela, ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e hai mai oe i kau kauwa. I mai la o Iehova, E iho mai no.
12 Then said David, Will the men of Keilah deliver me and my men into the hand of Saul? And the LORD said, They will deliver [thee] up.
I aku la o Davida, E haawi anei na kanaka o Keila ia'u a me kuu poe kanaka iloko o ka lima o Saula? I mai la o Iehova, E haawi no lakou.
13 Then David and his men [who were] about six hundred, arose and departed from Keilah, and went whithersoever they could go. And it was told Saul that David had escaped from Keilah: and he forbore to go forth.
Alaila ku ae la o Davida a me kona poe kanaka, aono haneri paha, a puka aku la iwaho o Keila, a hele aku ia i ka lakou wahi e hele ai. Ua haiia mai ia Saula ka holo ana o Davida mai Keila aku, a haalele ia i ka hele mai.
14 And David abode in the wilderness in strong holds, and remained in a mountain in the wilderness of Ziph. And Saul sought him every day, but God delivered him not into his hand.
A noho iho la o Davida i ka waonahele, ma na wahi paa, a noho i ka mauna ma ka waonahele o Zipa: a imi aku la o Saula ia ia i kela la i keia la, aole ke Akua i haawi mai ia ia iloko o kona lima.
15 And David saw that Saul had come out to seek his life: and David [was] in the wilderness of Ziph in a wood.
A ike iho la o Davida, ua hele mai o Saula e imi i kona ola: aia no o Davida ma ka waonahele a Zipa maloko o ka ululaau.
16 And Jonathan Saul's son arose, and went to David into the wood, and strengthened his hand in God.
Ku ae la o Ionatana ke keiki a Saula, a hele io Davida la maloko o ka ululaau, a hooikaika aku la i kona lima ma ke Akua.
17 And he said to him, Fear not: for the hand of Saul my father shall not find thee; and thou wilt be king over Israel, and I shall be next to thee; and that also Saul my father knoweth.
I aku la oia ia ia, Mai makau oe, no ka mea, aole e loaa oe i ka lima o Saula ko'u makuakane: a e lilo oe i alii maluna o ka Iseraela, a owau hoi ka lua malalo iho ou: a ua ikeia hoi ia e Saula, e ko'u makuakane.
18 And they two made a covenant before the LORD: and David abode in the wood, and Jonathan went to his house.
A hoopaa iho la laua i kuikahi imua o Iehova. Noho iho la o Davida maloko o ka ululaau, a hoi aku la o Ionatana ma kona hale.
19 Then came up the Ziphites to Saul to Gibeah, saying, Doth not David hide himself with us in strong holds in the wood, in the hill of Hachilah, which [is] on the south of Jeshimon?
Alaila pii mai la ko Zipa io Saula la ma Gibea, i mai la, Aole anei o Davida i pee iho io makou la ma na wahi paa iloko o ka ululaau ma ka puu o Hakila, ma ka aoao hema o Iesimona?
20 Now therefore, O king, come down according to all the desire of thy soul to come down; and our part [shall be] to deliver him into the king's hand.
No ia mea hoi, E ke alii, e iho mai oe, e like me ka makemake a pau o kou naau e iho mai, a na makou ia e haawi aku iloko o ka lima o ke alii.
21 And Saul said, Blessed [be] ye of the LORD; for ye have compassion on me.
I aku la o Saula, E pomaikai oukou ia Iehova; no ka mea, ua lokomaikai mai oukou ia'u.
22 Go, I pray you, prepare yet, and know, and see his place where his haunt is, [and] who hath seen him there: for it is told to me [that] he dealeth very subtilly.
Ke noi aku nei au ia oukou, e hele, e hoomakaukau hoi, a e nana a ike i kona wahi a kona wawae i hele ai, a o ka mea i ike ia ia malaila: no ka mea, ua haiia mai ia'u, ua hana maalea loa oia.
23 See therefore, and take knowledge of all the lurking-places where he hideth himself, and come ye again to me with the certainty, and I will go with you: and it shall come to pass, if he is in the land, that I will search him out throughout all the thousands of Judah.
E nana hoi oukou, a ike i na wahi pee a pau ana e pee ai, a hoi hou mai io'u nei me ka oiaio, a e hele pu au me oukou; a ina e noho ana oia ma ka aina, e imi au ia ia mawaena o na tausani a pau o ka Iuda.
24 And they arose, and went to Ziph before Saul: but David and his men [were] in the wilderness of Maon, in the plain on the south of Jeshimon.
Ku ae la lakou, a hele ma Zipa mamua o Saula: a o Davida a me kona poe kanaka aia iloko o ka waonahele o Maona i ka papu ma ka aoao hema o Iesimona.
25 Saul also and his men went to seek [him]. And they told David: wherefore he came down into a rock, and abode in the wilderness of Maon. And when Saul heard [that], he pursued after David in the wilderness of Maon.
Hele aku la o Saula a me kona poe kanaka e imi ia ia; a hai aku lakou ia Davida, a iho mai ia i ka pohaku, a noho ma ka waonahele o Maona. A lohe o Saula, hahai aku la ia mahope o Davida ma ka waonahele o Maona.
26 And Saul went on this side of the mountain, and David and his men on that side of the mountain: and David made haste to get away for fear of Saul; for Saul and his men compassed David and his men around to take them.
A hele aku la o Saula ma keia aoao o ka mauna, aia o Davida a me kona poe kanaka ma kela aoao o ka mauna: hele koke aku la o Davida no ka makau ia Saula; no ka mea, ua hoopuni o Saula a me kona poe kanaka ia Davida a me kona poe kanaka e hopu ia lakou.
27 But there came a messenger to Saul, saying, Haste thee, and come; for the Philistines have invaded the land.
A hele mai he elele ia Saula, i mai la, E wikiwiki oe, e hoi mai; no ka mea, ua hiki mai ko Pilisetia ma ka aina.
28 Wherefore Saul returned from pursuing after David, and went against the Philistines: therefore they called that place Sela-hammah-lekoth.
No ia mea, hoi aku la o Saula mai ka hahai ana ia Davida, a hele ku e aku la i ko Pilisetia: a kapa aku la lakou i ka inoa o ia wahi, o Selahamalekota.
29 Then David went up from thence, and dwelt in strong holds at En-gedi.
Pii ae la o Davida mailaila aku, a noho iloko o na wahi paa ma Enegedi.
