I Oihanaalii 10
1 A KAUA mai la ko Pilisetia i ka Iseraela; auhee ae la na kanaka o ka Iseraela imua o ko Pilisetia, a haule iho la lakou me ka pepehiia ma ka mauna o Gileboa.
Now the Philistines fought against Israel. Every man of Israel fled from before the Philistines and fell down dead on Mount Gilboa.
2 A hahai ikaika mai la ko Pilisetia mahope o Saula, a mahope o kana mau keiki; a pepehi iho la ko Pilisetia ia Ionatana, a ia Abitiadaba, a ia Malekisua, na keiki a Saula.
The Philistines closely pursued Saul and his son. The Philistines killed Jonathan, Abinadab, and Malki-Shua, his sons.
3 A ikaika mai la ke kaua ana ia Saula, a loaa oia i na kanaka pana pua, a ua ku oia i ka poe pana pua.
The battle went heavily against Saul, and the archers overtook him, and they wounded him.
4 Alaila, i aku la o Saula i ke kanaka hali i kana mea kaua, E unuhi oe i kau pahikaua, a e hou mai ia'u me ia, o hele mai keia poe okipoepoe ole, a e hoomaewaewa mai ia'u. Aka, aole i makemake ka mea hali i kana mea kaua; no ka mea, ua makau loa ia. Nolaila, lalau aku la o Saula i ka pahikaua, a haule iho la iluna.
Then said Saul to his armor bearer, “Draw your sword and thrust me through with it. Otherwise, these uncircumcised will come and abuse me.” But his armor bearer would not, for he was very afraid. So Saul took his own sword and fell on it.
5 A ike iho la ka mea hali i kana mea kaua, ua make o Saula, haule iho la hoi oia maluna o ka pahikaua, a make iho la.
When his armor bearer saw that Saul was dead, he likewise fell on his sword and died.
6 Pela i make ai o Saula, me kana mau keikikane ekolu, a o kona poe ohua ua pau pu i ka make.
So Saul died, and his three sons, so all his household members died together.
7 A ike ae la na kanaka a pau o ka Iseraela, ma ke awawa, hee aku la lakou; a ua make hoi o Saula a me kana mau keikikane, alaila haalele lakou i ko lakou mau kulanakauhale, a holo aku la; a hele mai la ko Pilisetia a noho iho la malaila.
When every man of Israel in the valley saw that they had fled, and that Saul and his sons were dead, they abandoned their cities and fled. Then the Philistines came and lived in them.
8 A ia la ae, a hele mai la ko Pilisetia e hao i ka poe make, loaa iho la ia lakou o Saula a me kana mau keiki i haule ma ka mauna o Gileboa.
It came about on the next day, when the Philistines came to strip the dead, that they found Saul and his sons fallen on Mount Gilboa.
9 A pau ko lakou hao ana ia ia, lawe ae la lakou i kona poo, a me kana mau mea kaua, hoouna aku la lakou ma ka aina o ko Pilisetia a puni, e hai aku i ko lakou mau kii, a i na kanaka.
They stripped him and took his head and his armor. They sent messengers throughout Philistia to carry the news to their idols and to the people.
10 A waiho iho la lakou i kana mau mea kaua iloko o ka hale o ko lakou mau akua, a hoopaa aku la i kona poo ma ka heiau o Dagona.
They put his armor in the temple of their gods, and fastened his head to the temple of Dagon.
11 A lohe ae la ko Iabesa gileada a pau i na mea a pau a ko Pilisetia i hana'i ia Saula,
When all Jabesh Gilead heard of all that the Philistines had done to Saul,
12 Ku ae la lakou, o ka poe kanaka koa a pau, a lawe aku la i ke kino o Saula, a me na kino o na keiki ana, a hali mai la i Iabesa, a kanu iho la i ko lakou mau iwi malalo o ka laau oka, aia ma labesa, a hookeai lakou i na la ehiku.
all the fighting men went and took away the body of Saul and those of his sons, and brought them to Jabesh. They buried their bones under the oak in Jabesh and fasted seven days.
13 Pela o Saula i make ai no kona hala, i ka mea ana i hoohala ai ia Iehova, i ku e i ka olelo a Iehova ana i malama ole ai, a no ka imi ana i uhane ino, e ninau aku;
So Saul died because he was unfaithful to Yahweh. He did not obey Yahweh's instructions, but asked for advice from someone who talked with the dead.
14 A ninau ole aku oia ia Iehova; nolaila, pepehi iho la oia ia ia, a hoohuli ae la i ke aupuni no Davida ke keiki a Iese.
He did not seek guidance from Yahweh, so Yahweh killed him and turned over the kingdom to David son of Jesse.
