2 Samuel 12
1 Yahweh sent Nathan to David. He came to him, and said to him, “There were two men in one city: the one rich, and the other poor.
HOOUNA mai la o Iehova ia Natana io Davida la: hele mai la ia io na la, i mai la ia ia, Elua mau kanaka ma kekahi kulanakauhale; ua waiwai kekahi, a ua ilihune kekahi.
2 The rich man had very many flocks and herds,
He nui loa hoi na ohana hipa a me na ohana bipi a ke kanaka waiwai:
3 but the poor man had nothing, except one little ewe lamb, which he had bought and raised. It grew up together with him and with his children. It ate of his own food, drank of his own cup, and lay in his bosom, and was like a daughter to him.
Aka, na ke kanaka ilihune, hookahi wale no keikihipa wahine uuku ana i kuai ai a hanai iho ai: noho pu iho la ia me ia a me na keiki ana; ai iho la ia i kana ai, a inu hoi ma kona kiaha, a moe iho la ia ma kona poli, a me he kaikamahine la ia nana.
4 A traveler came to the rich man, and he didn’t want to take of his own flock and of his own herd to prepare for the wayfaring man who had come to him, but took the poor man’s lamb and prepared it for the man who had come to him.”
A hele mai la he kanaka hele i ua kanaka waiwai la, a aua iho la ia ke lawe i ko kana ohana hipa a me kana ohana bipi e kalua na ua kanaka la i hele mai io na la; aka, kii aku la ia i ke keikihipa a ke kanaka ilihune, a kalua iho la na ke kanaka i hele mai io na la.
5 David’s anger burned hot against the man, and he said to Nathan, “As Yahweh lives, the man who has done this deserves to die!
Huhu loa aku la o Davida i ua kanaka la; i aku la oia ia Natana, Ma ke ola ana o Iehova, he oiaio no e make ke kanaka nana i hana ia mea.
6 He must restore the lamb fourfold, because he did this thing and because he had no pity!”
A e hoihoi pa-ha aku ia i ke keikihipa, no ka hana ana ia mea, a no ka mea, aohe ona aloha.
7 Nathan said to David, “You are the man! This is what Yahweh, the God of Israel, says: ‘I anointed you king over Israel, and I delivered you out of the hand of Saul.
I aku la o Natana ia Davida, O oe no ia kanaka: Penei ka Iehova ke Akua no ka Iseraela i olelo mai ai, Ua poni aku no au ia oe i alii raaluna o ka Iseraela, a ua hoopakele hoi au ia oe i ka lima o Saula:
8 I gave you your master’s house and your master’s wives into your bosom, and gave you the house of Israel and of Judah; and if that would have been too little, I would have added to you many more such things.
A haawi aku la au i ka hale o kou haku nou, a me na wahine a kou haku iloko o kou poli, a haawi aku la hoi au i ka ohana o ka Iseraela a me ka Iuda nou: a ina he uuku keia mau mea, alaila e haawi aku hoi au nau, i kela mau mea, a i keia mau mea.
9 Why have you despised Yahweh’s word, to do that which is evil in his sight? You have struck Uriah the Hittite with the sword, have taken his wife to be your wife, and have slain him with the sword of the children of Ammon.
Heaha hoi kau i hoowahawaha ai i ke kanawai o Iehova, e hana i ka hewa imua o kona maka? Ua pepehi ae oe ia Uria ka Heta me ka pahikaua, a ua lawe oe i kana wahine i wahine nau; a ua pepehi i ke kane me ka pahikaua a ka poe mamo a Amona.
10 Now therefore the sword will never depart from your house, because you have despised me and have taken Uriah the Hittite’s wife to be your wife.’
No ia mea hoi, aole loa e kaawale aku ka pahikaua mai kou ohana aku; no ka mea, ua hoowahawaha mai oe ia'u, a ua lawe oe i ka wahine a Uria ka Heta i wahine nau.
11 “This is what Yahweh says: ‘Behold, I will raise up evil against you out of your own house; and I will take your wives before your eyes and give them to your neighbor, and he will lie with your wives in the sight of this sun.
Penei ka Iehova i olelo mai ai, Eia hoi, e hoala auanei au i ka ino ku e ia oe maloko o kou hale, a e lawe au i kau mau wahine imua o kou maka, a e haawi aku ia lakou na kou hoalauna, a e moe ia me kau mau wahine imua o keia la.
12 For you did this secretly, but I will do this thing before all Israel, and before the sun.’”
No ka mea, ua hana malu oe i kau; aka, e hana au i keia mea imua o ka Iseraela a pau, a imua hoi o ka la.
13 David said to Nathan, “I have sinned against Yahweh.” Nathan said to David, “Yahweh also has put away your sin. You will not die.
I aku la o Davida ia Natana, Ua hana hewa wau ia Iehova. I mai la o Natana ia Davida, Ua kala aku hoi o Iehova i kou hewa; aole oe e make.
14 However, because by this deed you have given great occasion to Yahweh’s enemies to blaspheme, the child also who is born to you will surely die.”
Aka, no ka mea, ma keia hana ana au, ua loaa i ka poe enemi o Iehova ke kumu e olelo hoino ai, he oiaio no e make ke keiki i hanau mai nau.
15 Then Nathan departed to his house. Yahweh struck the child that Uriah’s wife bore to David, and he was very sick.
Hoi aku la o Natana i kona hale. Hahau mai la o Iehova i ke keiki a ka wahine a Uria i hanau mai ai na Davida, a mai nui iho la ia.
16 David therefore begged God for the child; and David fasted, and went in and lay all night on the ground.
Nolaila, nonoi aku la o Davida i ke Akua no ke keiki: hookeai iho la o Davida, komo aku la, a moe iho la ma ka honua a ao ka po.
17 The elders of his house arose beside him, to raise him up from the earth; but he would not, and he didn’t eat bread with them.
Ku ae la na lunakahiko o kona hale, hele aku la io na la e hoala ia ia mai ka honua ae: aole ia i ae aku, aole hoi i ai i ka ai me lakou.
18 On the seventh day, the child died. David’s servants were afraid to tell him that the child was dead, for they said, “Behold, while the child was yet alive, we spoke to him and he didn’t listen to our voice. How will he then harm himself if we tell him that the child is dead?”
A i ka hiku o ka la, make iho la ke keiki. Makau iho la na kauwa a Davida e hai aku ia ia, ua make ke keiki; i ae la lakou, Aia i ke ola ana o ke keiki, olelo aku la kakou ia ia, aole ia i hoolohe mai i ko kakou leo: he oiaio no, e hana eha oia ia ia iho, ke hai aku kakou ia ia, ua make ke keiki.
19 But when David saw that his servants were whispering together, David perceived that the child was dead; and David said to his servants, “Is the child dead?” They said, “He is dead.”
A ike ae la o Davida i ka hamumumu a na kauwa ana, ike iho la o Davida, ua make ke keiki: nolaila i aku la o Davida i kana mau kauwa, Ua make anei ke keiki? I mai la lakou, Ua make.
20 Then David arose from the earth, and washed and anointed himself, and changed his clothing; and he came into Yahweh’s house, and worshiped. Then he came to his own house; and when he requested, they set bread before him and he ate.
Alaila, ku ae la o Davida mai ka honua aku, auau iho la, a hamo iho la i ka aila, aahu iho la ia ia i ka lole hou, hele aku la i ka hale o Iehova, a hoomana aku la. Alaila hoi mai la ia i kona hale: a kena aku la ia, a kau mai la lakou i ka ai imua ona, a ai iho la ia.
21 Then his servants said to him, “What is this that you have done? You fasted and wept for the child while he was alive, but when the child was dead, you rose up and ate bread.”
Alaila, i aku la kana mau kauwa ia ia. Heaha keia au i hana iho nei? hookeai iho la oe me ka uwe i ke keiki i kona wa e ola ana; a make iho ke keiki, ua ala ae oe a ai iho i ka ai.
22 He said, “While the child was yet alive, I fasted and wept; for I said, ‘Who knows whether Yahweh will not be gracious to me, that the child may live?’
I mai la kela, A e ola ana ke keiki, hookeai iho la au me ka uwe: i iho la au, Malama paha e aloha mai ke Akua ia'u i ola ke keiki.
23 But now he is dead. Why should I fast? Can I bring him back again? I will go to him, but he will not return to me.”
Ano hoi, ua make ia: no ke aha hoi au e hookeai ai? E hiki anei ia'u ke hoihoi mai ia ia? Owau ke hele aku io na la, aka, aole ia e hoi hou mai io'u nei.
24 David comforted Bathsheba his wife, and went in to her, and lay with her. She bore a son, and he called his name Solomon. Yahweh loved him;
Hooluolu aku la o Davida ia Bateseba i kana wahine; komo aku la ia iloko io na la, a moe me ia: a hanau mai la ia i keikikane, a kapa aku la kela i kona inoa, o Solomona; a aloha mai la o Iehova ia ia.
25 and he sent by the hand of Nathan the prophet, and he named him Jedidiah, for Yahweh’s sake.
Hoouna mai la ia i ke kaula ia Natana, a kapa mai la ia i kona inoa o Iedidia, no Iehova.
26 Now Joab fought against Rabbah of the children of Ammon, and took the royal city.
Kaua aku la o Ioaba ia Raba o na mamo a Amona, a hoopio mai la i ke kulanakauhale alii.
27 Joab sent messengers to David, and said, “I have fought against Rabbah. Yes, I have taken the city of waters.
Hoouna mai la o Ioaba i na elele io Davida la, i mai la, E, ua kana aku no wau ia Raba, a ua hoopio iho i ke kulanakauhale wai.
28 Now therefore gather the rest of the people together, and encamp against the city and take it; lest I take the city, and it be called by my name.”
Ano hoi, e hoakoakoa pu mai oe i na kanaka e koe, e kaua aku i ke kulanakauhale, a e hoopio ia wahi; o pio auanei ke kulanakauhale ia'u, a e kaheaia ko'u inoa maluna ona.
29 David gathered all the people together and went to Rabbah, and fought against it and took it.
Hoakoakoa pu ae la o Davida i na kanaka a pau, a hele aku la i Raba, kaua aku la ia, a hoopio iho la ia wahi.
30 He took the crown of their king from off his head; and its weight was a talent of gold, and in it were precious stones; and it was set on David’s head. He brought a great quantity of plunder out of the city.
Lawe ae la hoi ia i ka papale o ko lakou alii, mailuna o kona poo, ma ke kaupaona ana, he talena gula ia, me na pohaku makamae, a ua kauia maluna o ke poo o Davida. A lawe mai la ia i ka waiwai pio o ke kulanakauhale he nui loa.
31 He brought out the people who were in it, and put them to work under saws, under iron picks, under axes of iron, and made them go to the brick kiln; and he did so to all the cities of the children of Ammon. Then David and all the people returned to Jerusalem.
Lawe ae la hoi oia i na kanaka maloko, a kau iho la ia lakou malalo o na pahiolo, a malalo o na mea hao oioi, a malalo hoi o na koilipi hao, a hoohele aku la hoi ia lakou mawaena o ka umu pohakuula: pela ia i hana aku ai i na kulanakauhale a pau i na mamo a Amona. A hoi aku la o Davida a me na kanaka a pau i Ierusalema.
