< 2 Samuel 15 >

1 After this, Absalom prepared a chariot and horses for himself, and fifty men to run before him.
MAHOPE iho o ia mea la, hoomakaukau ae la o Abesaloma i na hale kaa a me na lio nona, a me na kanaka he kanalima e holo imua ona.
2 Absalom rose up early, and stood beside the way of the gate. When any man had a suit which should come to the king for judgment, then Absalom called to him, and said, “What city are you from?” He said, “Your servant is of one of the tribes of Israel.”
Ala ae la o Abesaloma i kakahiaka, a ku mai la ma kapa alanui ma ka ipuka: a hele aku kekahi kanaka i ke alii ia ia ka mea hakaka e hooponoponoia'i ma ke kanawai, alaila hea aku la o Abesaloma ia ia, i aku la, No ke kulanakauhale hea oe? I mai la kela, No kekahi ohana a Iseraela kau kauwa.
3 Absalom said to him, “Behold, your matters are good and right; but there is no man deputized by the king to hear you.”
I aku la o Abesaloma, Aia, he maikai, a he pono kau mau mea; aka, aohe kanaka o ke alii nana e hooponopono i kau.
4 Absalom said moreover, “Oh that I were made judge in the land, that every man who has any suit or cause might come to me, and I would do him justice!”
I aku la hoi o Abesaloma, Ina paha e hoonohoia au he lunakanawai o ka aina, alaila o kela kanaka o keia kanaka ia ia ka mea e hookolokoloia'i, e hele mai ia io'u nei, a e hooponopono aku au nona.
5 It was so, that when any man came near to bow down to him, he stretched out his hand, took hold of him, and kissed him.
A I ka wa i hele mai ai kekahi kanaka e uwe aloha ia ia, o aku la ia i kona lima, lalau aku la ia ia, a honi ae la.
6 Absalom did this sort of thing to all Israel who came to the king for judgment. So Absalom stole the hearts of the men of Israel.
Pela no i hana aku ai o Abesaloma i ka Iseraela a pau i hele mai i ke alii no ka hooponoponoia. A aihue ae la o Abesaloma i na naau o ka Iseraela.
7 At the end of forty years, Absalom said to the king, “Please let me go and pay my vow, which I have vowed to the LORD, in Hebron.
Mahope iho o na makahiki hookahi kanaha, i aku la o Abesaloma i ke alii, Ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e ae mai oe e hele au i Heberona e hooko aku i kuu hoohild ana a'u i hoohiki ai ia Iehova.
8 For your servant vowed a vow while I stayed at Geshur in Syria, saying, ‘If the LORD shall indeed bring me again to Jerusalem, then I will serve the LORD.’”
No ka mea, hoohiki aku la au i kuu wa i noho ai ma Gesura i Suria, i aku la, Ina paha e hoihoi io aku o Iehova ia'u ma Ierusalema, alaila au e malama aku ai ia Iehova.
9 The king said to him, “Go in peace.” So he arose and went to Hebron.
I mai la ke alii ia ia, O hele oe me ke aloha. Ku ae la ia, a hele aku la i Heberona.
10 But Absalom sent spies throughout all the tribes of Israel, saying, “As soon as you hear the sound of the trumpet, then you shall say, ‘Absalom is king in Hebron!’”
Hoouna aku la o Abesaloma i na kiu iwaena o na ohana a pau o ka Iseraela, i aku la, A lohe oukou i ke kani ana o ka pu, alaila, e olelo oukou, E alii ana o Abesaloma ma Heberona.
11 Two hundred men went with Absalom out of Jerusalem, who were invited, and went in their simplicity; and they didn’t know anything.
Hele pu aku la me Abesaloma mai Ierusalema aku elua haneri kanaka i waeia; a hele naaupo wale no lakou, aole i ike i kekahi mea.
12 Absalom sent for Ahithophel the Gilonite, David’s counselor, from his city, even from Giloh, while he was offering the sacrifices. The conspiracy was strong, for the people increased continually with Absalom.
Hoouna aku la o Abesaloma e kii ia Ahitopela no Gilo, he kakaolelo no Davida, e hele mai mai kona kulanakaauhale, mai Gilo mai, i ka wa ana i mohai aku ai. Ua ikaika no ka poe kipi; no ka mea, ua mahuahua mau mai a nui ae na kanaka me Abesaloma.
13 A messenger came to David, saying, “The hearts of the men of Israel are after Absalom.”
Hele mai la kekahi kanaka io Davida la, i mai la, Aia mamuli o Abesaloma na naau o na kanaka o ka Iseraela.
14 David said to all his servants who were with him at Jerusalem, “Arise! Let’s flee, or else none of us will escape from Absalom. Hurry to depart, lest he overtake us quickly and bring down evil on us, and strike the city with the edge of the sword.”
I mai la o Davida i na kanaka ona a pau ma Ierusalema, E ku ae, a e holo aku kakou; no ka mea, pela wale no e pakele ai kakou mai o Abesaloma aku: e wikiwiki ka hele aku, o hiki koke mai oia io kakou nei, a hooili mai oia i ka ino maluna o kakou, a pepehi mai i ke kulanakauhale nei me ka maka o ka pahikaua.
15 The king’s servants said to the king, “Behold, your servants are ready to do whatever my lord the king chooses.”
I aku la na kanaka o ke alii, Eia hoi makou, e hana na kauwa au i ka mea au e olelo mai.
16 The king went out, and all his household after him. The king left ten women, who were concubines, to keep the house.
Hele aku la ke alii iwaho, a o kona ohana a pau mahope ona: waiho iho lake alii i na wahine he umi, he mau haiawahine e malama i ka hale.
17 The king went out, and all the people after him; and they stayed in Beth Merhak.
Hele aku la ke alii iwaho, a o na kanaka a pau mahope ona, a kakali aku la ma kahi mamao aku.
18 All his servants passed on beside him; and all the Cherethites, and all the Pelethites, and all the Gittites, six hundred men who came after him from Gath, passed on before the king.
Hele pu aku la kana poe kauwa a pau me ia; hele aku la hoi imua o ke alii ka poe Kereti a pau, a o ka poe Peleti a pau, me ka poe Giti a pau, eono haneri kanaka ka poe hele mai mamuli ona mai Gata mai.
19 Then the king said to Ittai the Gittite, “Why do you also go with us? Return, and stay with the king; for you are a foreigner and also an exile. Return to your own place.
Alaila i aku la ke alii ia Itai ke Giti, No ke aha hi oe e hele pu ai me makou E hoi hou i kou wahi, a e noho me ke alii, no ka mea, he malihini oe, a no ka aiha e mai.
20 Whereas you came but yesterday, should I today make you go up and down with us, since I go where I may? Return, and take back your brothers. Mercy and truth be with you.”
Inehinei wale no kou hele ana mai, a e pono no anei e hooauwana aku au ia oe iluna a ilalo me makou Ke hele nei au i kuu wahi e hele ai; nolala, e hoi oe, a e kono pu me oe i ou mau hoahar nau: a me oe no ke alohaia mai a me ka oiaio.
21 Ittai answered the king and said, “As the LORD lives, and as my lord the king lives, surely in what place my lord the king is, whether for death or for life, your servant will be there also.”
Olelo mai la o Itai i ke alii, i mai la, Ma ke ola ana o Iehova, a me ke ola ana o ko'u haku o ke alii, he oiaio no, ma na wahi a pau a kuu haku a ke alii e noho ai me ka make paha, a me ke ola paha, malaila pu no hoi kau kanwa nei.
22 David said to Ittai, “Go and pass over.” Ittai the Gittite passed over, and all his men, and all the little ones who were with him.
I aku la ke alii ia Itai, E hele pu, a e hele aku hoi oe ma kela aoao. Hele aku la o Itai ke Giti ma kela aoao me na kanaka ona a pau, a me na kamalii a pau me ia.
23 All the country wept with a loud voice, and all the people passed over. The king also himself passed over the brook Kidron, and all the people passed over toward the way of the wilderness.
Uwe aku la ko ka aina a pau me ka leo nui, a hele nui aku la na kanaka ma kela aoao: o ke alii no hoi kekahi i hele aku ma kela aoao o ke kahawai o Kederona; a hele aku la na kanaka a pau i ke ala o ka waonahele.
24 Behold, Zadok also came, and all the Levites with him, bearing the ark of the covenant of God; and they set down God’s ark; and Abiathar went up until all the people finished passing out of the city.
Aia hoi o Zadoka a me ka poe Levi a pau me ia, e halihali ana i ka pahu berita o ke Akua: kau iho la lakou i ka pahu o ke Akua ilalo; a pii aku la o Abiatara, a pau mai na kanaka i ka hele mailoko mai o ke kulanakauhale.
25 The king said to Zadok, “Carry God’s ark back into the city. If I find favor in the LORD’s eyes, he will bring me again, and show me both it and his habitation;
I aku la ke alii ia Zadoka, E hoihoi oe i ka pahu o ke Akua iloko o ke kulanakauhale: ina paha e loaa ia'u ke aloha ma na maka o Iehova, alaila e hoihoi mai kela ia'u, a e hoike mai ia mea ia'u a me kona wahi noho.
26 but if he says, ‘I have no delight in you,’ behold, here I am. Let him do to me as seems good to him.”
Aka, ina paha e olelo mai kela, Aole o'u oluolu ia oe; eia hoi wau, e hana mai kela ia'u e like me ka mea i pono ia ia.
27 The king said also to Zadok the priest, “Aren’t you a seer? Return into the city in peace, and your two sons with you, Ahimaaz your son and Jonathan the son of Abiathar.
I aku la hoi ke alii ia Zadoka ke kahuna, aole anei oe he kaula? E hoi hou oe i ke kulanakauhale me ke aloha, me kau mau keikikane elua me Ahimaaza kau keiki, a me Ionatana ke keiki a Abiatara.
28 Behold, I will stay at the fords of the wilderness until word comes from you to inform me.”
Aia, e kali no wau ma ka papu o ka waonahele, a loaa ia'u ka olelo mai o olua mai la e hoike mai ai ia'u.
29 Zadok therefore and Abiathar carried God’s ark to Jerusalem again; and they stayed there.
Nolaila, hoihoi aku la o Zadoka laua o Abiatara i ka pahu o ke Akua i Ierusalema: a noho iho la laua ilaila.
30 David went up by the ascent of the Mount of Olives, and wept as he went up; and he had his head covered and went barefoot. All the people who were with him each covered his head, and they went up, weeping as they went up.
Pii aku la o Davida ma ke alapii o Oliveta, e uwe ana ma kona hele ana, me ka uhiia o kona poo; a hele kamaa ole ia: a uhi iho la kela kanaka keia kanaka me ia i kona poo; a pii aku la lakou, a uwe iho la ma ko lakou hele ana.
31 Someone told David, saying, “Ahithophel is among the conspirators with Absalom.” David said, “LORD, please turn the counsel of Ahithophel into foolishness.”
I mai la kekahi ia Davida, Aia o Ahitopela me ka poe kipi me Abesaloma. I aku la o Davida, E Iehova, ke pule aku nei au ia oe, e hoolilo oe i ka oleloao a Ahitopela i mea lapuwale.
32 When David had come to the top, where God was worshiped, behold, Hushai the Archite came to meet him with his tunic torn and earth on his head.
A hiki aku la o Davida iluna, kahi ana i hoomana aku ai i ke Akua, aia hoi, hele mai la o Husai no Areki e halawai me ia, ua haehae kona kapa, a he lepo maluna o kona poo.
33 David said to him, “If you pass on with me, then you will be a burden to me;
I aku la o Davida ia ia, Ina paha e hele pu oe me au, alaila e kaumaha wau ia oe:
34 but if you return to the city, and tell Absalom, ‘I will be your servant, O king. As I have been your father’s servant in time past, so I will now be your servant; then you will defeat for me the counsel of Ahithophel.’
Aka, i hoi hou aku paha oe i ke kulanakauhale, a e i aku ia Abesaloma, E hookauwa aku au nau, e ke alii, e like me ka'u i hookauwa aku ai na kou makuakane mamua, pela hoi au e hookauwa aku ai nau; alaila, e hiki paha ia oe ke hoolilo i ka oleloao a Ahitopela i mea ole no'u.
35 Don’t you have Zadok and Abiathar the priests there with you? Therefore whatever you hear out of the king’s house, tell it to Zadok and Abiathar the priests.
A o Zadoka laua o Abiatara na kahuna, aole anei laua pu kekahi me oe? Nolaila, o kau mea e lohe mailoko mai o ka hale o ke alii, oia kau e hai aku ai ia Zadoka a me Abiatara na kahuna.
36 Behold, they have there with them their two sons, Ahimaaz, Zadok’s son, and Jonathan, Abiathar’s son. Send to me everything that you shall hear by them.”
Aia no me laua ka laua mau keikikane o Ahimaaza ka Zadoka a o Ionatana ka Abiatara, a ma o laua la e hoouka mai ai oukou i na mea a pau a oukou e lohe ai.
37 So Hushai, David’s friend, came into the city; and Absalom came into Jerusalem.
Alaila hoi aku la o Husai ka hoalauna o Davida maloko o ke kulanakauhale; a hele mai la hoi o Abesaloma i Ierusalema.
