< Judges 18 >

1 In tho daies was no kyng in Israel; and the lynage of Dan souyte possessioun to it silf, to dwelle ther ynne; for `til to that dai it hadde not take eritage among other lynagis.
‌ʻI he ngaahi ʻaho ko ia naʻe ʻikai ha tuʻi ʻi ʻIsileli: pea ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ko ia naʻe kumi ʻe he faʻahinga ʻo Tani hanau tofiʻa kenau nofo ai; koeʻuhi naʻe teʻeki ai ke tō honau tofiʻa kiate kinautolu ʻi he ngaahi faʻahinga ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻo aʻu ki he kuonga ko ia.
2 Therfor the sones of Dan senten fyue the strongeste men of her generacioun and meynee fro Saraa and Escahol, that thei schulden aspie the lond, and biholde diligentli. And thei seiden to hem, Go ye, and biholde the lond. And whanne thei goynge hadden come in to the hil of Effraym, and hadden entrid in to the hows of Mycha, thei restiden there.
Pea naʻe fekau ʻe he fānau ʻa Tani ʻae kau tangata ʻe toko nima ʻi honau faʻahinga mei honau fonua, ʻae kau tangata toʻa, mei Sola pea mei Esitaoli, kenau vakai ʻae fonua, pea ke malakiʻi ia; pea naʻa nau pehē kiate kinautolu, ʻAlu, pea matakiʻi ʻae fonua: pea ʻi heʻenau hoko ki he moʻunga ʻo ʻIfalemi, ki he fale ʻo Maika, naʻa nau mohe ʻi ai.
3 And thei knewen the voys of the yong wexynge dekene; and thei restiden in `the yn of hym, and seiden to hym, Who brouyte thee hidur? What doist thou here? For what cause woldist thou come hidur?
Pea ʻi heʻenau ofi ki he fale ʻo Maika, naʻa nau ʻilo ʻae leʻo ʻoe tangata talavou ko e Livai: pea naʻa nau afe ki ai, ʻonau pehē kiate ia, “Ko hai naʻa ne ʻomi koe ki heni? Pea ko e hā ʻoku ke fai ʻi heni?”
4 Which answeride `to hem, Mychas yaf to me these and these thingis, and hiride me for meede, that Y be preest to hym.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “ʻOku pehē pē, mo pehē pe ʻe Maika kiate au, pea kuo ne nō au kiate ia ʻaki ʻae totongi, pea ko hono taulaʻeiki au.”
5 Forsothe thei preieden hym, that he schulde counsele the Lord, and thei myyten wite, whether thei yeden in weie of prosperite, and the thing schulde haue effect.
Pea naʻa nau pehē kiate ia, “Ko eni ʻoku mau kole kiate koe, ke ke kole ki he ʻOtua ʻae poto, koeʻuhi ke mau ʻilo pē ʻe monūʻia homau hala ʻaia ʻoku mau ʻalu ai.”
6 Which answeride to hem, Go ye with pees, the Lord biholdith youre weie, and the iourney whidur ye goon.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he taulaʻeiki, “Mou ʻalu fiemālie pē: ʻoku ʻafio ʻe Sihova ʻa homou hala ʻaia ʻoku mou ʻalu ai.”
7 Therfor the fyue men yeden, and camen to Lachys; and thei siyen the puple dwellynge ther ynne with outen ony drede, bi the custom of Sidonyis, sikur and resteful, for no man outirli ayenstood hem, and `of grete richessis, and fer fro Sidon, and departid fro alle men.
Pea naʻe toki ʻalu ai ʻae kau tangata ʻe toko nima ʻonau hoko ki Leisi, ʻo mamata ki he kakai naʻe ʻi ai, mo ʻenau nofo noa ai pe, ʻo hangē ko e kau Saitoni, ʻo fakafiemālie pe mo hamumunoa; pea naʻe ʻikai ha fakamaau ʻi he fonua ke fakamā ʻakinautolu ʻi ha meʻa ʻe taha; pea naʻa nau mamaʻo mei he kau Saitoni; pea naʻe ʻikai tenau feongoongoi mo ha kakai.
8 And thei turneden ayen to her britheren in Saraa and Escahol; and thei answeriden to `britheren axynge what thei hadden do,
Pea naʻa nau haʻu ki honau kāinga ki Sola mo Esitaoli: pea pehē ʻe honau kāinga kiate kinautolu, Ko e hā hoʻomou lea?
9 Rise ye, and stie we to hem, for we siyen the lond ful riche and plenteuous; nyle ye be necgligent, nil ye ceesse, go we, and haue it in possessioun;
Pea naʻa nau pehē, “Tuʻu hake koeʻuhi ke tau ʻalu hake kiate kinautolu: he kuo mau mamata ki he fonua, pea vakai, ʻoku lelei ʻaupito ia: pea ʻoku mou taʻengāue? ʻOua naʻa mou fakapikopiko ke ʻalu, pea ke hoko atu pea maʻu ʻae fonua.
10 no trauel schal be; we schulen entre to sikir men, in to a largeste cuntrey; and the Lord schal bitake to vs a place, wher ynne is not pouert of ony thing of tho that ben brouyt forth in erthe.
Ka mou ka ʻalu, te mou hoko ki he kakai ʻoku nofo noa pē, pea ki he fonua lahi: he kuo foaki ia ʻe he ʻOtua ki homou nima; ko e potu ʻoku ʻikai masiva ʻi ha meʻa ʻe taha ʻoku ʻi māmani.”
11 Therfor sixe hundrid men gird with armeris of batel yeden forth `of the kynrede of Dan, that is, fro Saraa and Escahol.
Pea naʻe ʻalu mei ai ʻi he fānau ʻoe faʻahinga ʻo Tani, mei Sola pea mei Esitaoli, ʻae kau tangata ʻe toko onongeau naʻe toʻo mahafutau.
12 And thei stieden, and dwelliden in Cariathiarym of Juda, which place took fro that tyme the name of Castels of Dan, and is bihyndis the bak of Cariathiarym.
Pea naʻa nau ʻalu hake, ʻo ʻapitanga ʻi Keasa-Sialimi, ʻi Siuta: ko ia naʻa nau ui ai ʻae potu ko ia ko Mahaneani ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ni: vakai, ʻoku tuʻu ia ʻituʻa Keasa-Sialimi.
13 Fro thennus thei passiden in to the hil of Effraym; and whanne thei hadden come to the hows of Mychas, the fyue men,
Pea naʻa nau ʻalu mei ai ki he moʻunga ko ʻIfalemi, ʻo hoko atu ki he fale ʻo Maika.
14 that weren sent bifore to biholde the lond of Lachis, seiden to her other britheren, Ye knowen, that ephod, and theraphyn, and a grauun ymage and yotun is in these housis; se ye what plesith you.
Pea naʻe lea ʻae kau tangata ʻe toko nima naʻe ʻalu ke matakiʻi ʻae fonua ko Leisi, ʻonau pehē ki honau kāinga, “ʻOku mou ʻilo ʻoku ʻi he ngaahi fale ni ʻae ʻefoti, mo e tamapua, mo e meʻa fakatātā kuo tā mo e fakatātā kuo haka? Pea ko eni mou fakakaukau pe ko e hā te mou fai.”
15 And whanne thei hadden bowid a litil, thei entriden in to the hows of the yong dekene, that was in the hows of Mychas, and thei gretten hym with pesible wordis.
Pea naʻa nau afe ki ai, pea hoko ki fale ʻoe talavou ko e Livai, ʻio, ki he fale ʻo Maika ʻonau fetapa kiate ia.
16 Forsothe sixe hundrid men stoden bifore the dore, so as thei weren armed. And thei, that entriden in to the `hows of the yong man, enforsiden to take awey the grauun ymage, and the ephod, and theraphin, and the yotun ymage; and the preest stood bifore the dore,
Pea ko e kau tangata ʻe toko onongeau naʻe toʻo mahafutau ʻaia naʻe ʻi he fānau ʻa Tani, naʻa nau tuʻu ʻi he hūʻanga ʻoe matapā.
17 while sixe hundrid strongeste men abideden not fer.
Pea naʻe ʻalu hake ʻo hū ki ai, ʻae kau tangata ʻe toko nima, naʻe ʻalu ke matakiʻi ʻae fonua, ʻo [nau ]toʻo ʻae meʻa fakatātā kuo tā mo e ʻefoti, mo e tamapua, mo e fakatātā kuo haka; pea naʻe tuʻu ʻae taulaʻeiki ʻi he hūʻanga ʻoe matapā fakataha mo e kau tangata ʻe toko onongeau ʻaia naʻe toʻo mahafutau.
18 Therfor thei that entriden token the grauun ymage, ephod, and idols, and the yotun ymage; to whiche the preest seide, What doen ye?
Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻakinautolu ki he fale ʻo Maika, pea ʻomi mei ai ʻae meʻa fakatātā kuo tā, mo e ʻefoti, mo e tamapua, mo e fakatātā kuo haka. Pea pehē ʻe he taulaʻeiki kiate kinautolu, “Ko e hā ʻoku mou fai?”
19 To whom thei answeriden, Be thou stille, and putte the fyngur on thi mouth, and come with vs, that we haue thee fadir and preest. What is betere to thee, that thou be preest in the hows of o man, whether in o lynage and meynee in Israel?
Pea naʻa nau pehē kiate ia, “Ke ke longo pē koe; ʻai ho nima ki ho ngutu, pea ke haʻu ke tau ō, pea ke hoko kiate kimautolu ko e tamai mo e taulaʻeiki: he ʻoku lelei kiate koe ke nofo ko e taulaʻeiki ki he fale ʻoe tangata pē taha, pe ko hoʻo hoko ko e taulaʻeiki ki he faʻahinga mo e fale ʻo ʻIsileli?”
20 And whanne he hadde herd this, he assentide to `the wordis of hem, and he took the ephod, and ydols, and the grauun ymage, and yede forth with hem.
Pea naʻe fiefia ʻae loto ʻoe taulaʻeiki, pea naʻe toʻo ʻe ia ʻae ʻefoti, mo e tamapua, mo e meʻa fakatātā kuo tā, pea ʻalu ia ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe kakai.
21 And whanne thei yeden, and hadden maad the litle children, and werk beestis, and al thing that was preciouse, to go bifor hem;
Ko ia naʻa nau tafoki ʻo ʻalu ai, pea naʻe fakaheka ʻae fānau siʻi ki he ngaahi saliote mo e fanga manu ke muʻomuʻa ʻiate kinautolu.
22 and whanne thei weren now fer fro `the hows of Mychas, men that dwelliden in the housis of Mychas, crieden togidere, and sueden,
Pea ʻi heʻenau mamaʻo atu mei he fale ʻo Maika, naʻe kātoa ʻae kau tangata naʻe ʻi he ngaahi fale ofi ki he fale ʻo Maika, ʻonau tuli ʻo hoko atu ki he fānau ʻa Tani.
23 and bigunnun to crye `aftir the bak. Whiche whanne thei hadden biholde, seiden to Mychas, What wolt thou to thee? whi criest thou?
Pea naʻa nau tangi ki he fānau ʻa Tani. Pea naʻa nau tangaki kimui, ʻo pehē kia Maika, “Ko e hā ʻaʻau, ʻoku ke haʻu ai mo e kakai pehē?”
24 Which answeride, Ye han take awey my goddis whiche Y made to me, and the preest, and alle thingis whiche Y haue; and ye seien, What is to thee?
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “Kuo mou toʻo ʻo ʻave hoku ngaahi ʻotua naʻaku ngaohi, pea mo e taulaʻeiki, pea kuo mou ʻalu: pea ko e hā ʻoku toe ʻiate au? Pea ko e hā ia ʻoku mou lea ai kiate au, ‘Ko e hā ʻa au?’”
25 And the sones of Dan seiden to hym, Be war, lest thou speke more to vs, and men styrid in soule come to thee, and thou perische with al thin hows.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he fānau ʻa Tani kiate ia, “ʻOua naʻa ongona ho leʻo ʻiate kimautolu telia naʻa ʻoho atu kiate koe ʻae kau siana loto ʻita, pea ʻe mole ʻiate koe hoʻo moʻui, fakataha mo e moʻui ʻa ho kau nofoʻanga.”
26 And so thei yeden forth in the iourney bigunnun. Forsothe Mychas siy, that thei weren strongere than he, and turnede ayen in to his hows.
Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻae fānau ʻa Tani ʻi honau hala: pea ʻi he mamata ʻa Maika ki heʻenau fai mālohi lahi kiate ia, naʻe tafoki ia ʻo ʻalu ki hono fale.
27 Forsothe sixe hundrid men token the preest, and the thingis whiche we biforseiden, and camen in to Lachis to the puple restynge and sikur; and thei smytiden hem bi the scharpnesse of swerd, and bitoken the citee to brennyng,
Pea naʻa nau ʻave ʻae ngaahi meʻa naʻe ngaohi ʻe Maika, mo e taulaʻeiki naʻa ne maʻu, ʻonau hoko ki Leisi, ki he kakai naʻe nofo fiemālie pe mo hamumunoa: pea naʻa nau teʻia ʻakinautolu ʻaki ʻae mata ʻoe heletā, pea naʻe tutu ʻenau kolo ʻaki ʻae afi.
28 while no man outirli yaf help, for thei dwelliden fer fro Sydon, and hadden not ony thing of felouschipe and cause with ony of men. Forsothe the citee was set in the cuntrei of Roob; which citee thei bildiden eft, and dwelliden ther ynne;
Pea naʻe ʻikai ha fakamoʻui, he naʻe mamaʻo ia mei Saitoni, pea naʻe ʻikai tenau kau mo ha kakai; pea naʻe tuʻu ia ʻi he teleʻa ʻaia ʻoku ofi ki Pete-Lehopi. Pea naʻa nau langa ʻae kolo ʻo nofo ʻi ai.
29 while the name of the citee was clepid Dan, bi the name of her fadir, whom Israel hadde gendrid, which citee was seid Lachis bifore.
Pea naʻa nau ui ʻae hingoa ʻoe kolo ko Tani, ʻo hangē ko e hingoa ʻo Tani ko ʻenau tamai, ʻaia naʻe fānau kia ʻIsileli: ka ko e moʻoni naʻe fuofua ui ʻae kolo ko ia ko Leisi.
30 And `thei settiden there the grauun ymage, and Jonathas, sone of Jerson, sone of Moises, and `Jonathas sones, preestis, in the lynage of Dan, til in to the dai of her caitifte.
Pea naʻe fokotuʻu hake ʻe he fānau ʻa Tani ʻae tamapua fakatātā: pea ko Sioatani, ko e foha ʻo Kesomi, ko e foha ʻo Manase, ko ia mo hono ngaahi foha naʻe hoko ko e kau taulaʻeiki ki he faʻahinga ʻo Tani ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ʻoe fakapōpulaʻi ʻae fonua.
31 And the idol of Mychas dwellide at hem, in al the tyme `in which the hows of God was in Silo. In tho daies was no kyng in Israel.
Pea naʻa nau fokotuʻu hake ʻae tamapua naʻe tā ʻe Maika, ʻaia naʻa ne ngaohi, ʻi he kuonga kotoa pē naʻe nofo ai ʻae fale ʻoe ʻOtua ʻi Sailo.
