< I Oihanaalii 21 >
1 KU e mai la o Satana i ka Iseraela, a hoowalewale mai la ia Davida e helu aku i ka Iseraela.
Now Satan, designing evil against Israel, put into David's mind the impulse to take the number of Israel.
2 Olelo aku la o Davida ia Ioaba a i na luna o kanaka, Ou haele, e helu i ka Iseraela, mai Beereseba a hiki i Dana: a e lawe mai i ko lakou helu ana io'u nei, i ike au.
And David said to Joab and the captains of the people, Now let all Israel, from Beer-sheba to Dan, be numbered; and give me word so that I may be certain of their number.
3 Ekemu mai la o Ioaba, E hoonui o Iehova i kona poe kanaka, a pahaneri hou aku: aka, e kuu haku, e ke alii, aole anei lakou a pau na kauwa a kuu haku? No ke aha la hoi e makemake nei kuu haku ia mea? No ke aha la oia e lilo ai i kumu e lawehala ai o ka Iseraela?
And Joab said, May the Lord make his people a hundred times more in number than they are; but, my lord king, are they not all my lord's servants? why would my lord have this done? why will he become a cause of sin to Israel?
4 Aka, ua ikaika ka olelo a ke alii maluna o Ioaba. Nolaila, hele aku la o Ioaba, a kaahele mawaena o Iseraela a pau, a hoi mai la i Ierusalema.
But the king's word was stronger than Joab's. So Joab went out and went through all Israel and came to Jerusalem.
5 Haawi aku la o Ioaba i ka huina o ka helu ana i na kanaka ia Davida. A o ka helu ana i ka Iseraela a pau, he tausani tausani a me ka haneri tausani keu ka poe i unuhi i ka pahikaua: a no ka Iuda eha haneri a me kanahiku tausani kanaka ka i unuhi i ka pahikaua.
And Joab gave David the number of all the people; all the men of Israel, able to take up arms, were one million, one hundred thousand men; and those of Judah were four hundred and seventy thousand men, able to take up arms.
6 Aka, aole ia i helu i ka Levi a me ka Beniamina, no ka mea, ua hoowahawahaia ka olelo a ke alii e Ioaba.
But Levi and Benjamin were not numbered among them, for Joab was disgusted with the king's order.
7 A he hewa no ia mea imua o na maka o Iehova; nolaila ia i hahau ai i ka Iseraela.
And God was not pleased with this thing; so he sent punishment on Israel.
8 Olelo aku la o Davida i ke Akua, Ua hana lapuwale iho nei au i kuu hana ana ia mea: a ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e kala ae oe i ka hewa o kau kauwa; no ka mea, ua hana lapuwale loa no wau.
Then David said to God, Great has been my sin in doing this; but now, be pleased to take away the sin of your servant, for I have done very foolishly.
9 Olelo mai la o Iehova ia Gada i ko Davida kaula, i mai la,
Then the word of the Lord came to Gad, David's seer, saying,
10 O hele e hai ia Davida, i ka i ana aku, Eia ka Iehova e olelo mai nei, Ke hoike aku nei au nou i ekolu mau mea; e koho oe i kekahi o lakou, i hana aku ai au ia ia oe.
Go and say to David, The Lord says, Three things are offered to you: say which of them you will have, so that I may do it to you.
11 A hele mai la o Gada, i mai la ia ia, Eia ka Iehova e olelo mai nei, e koho oe nou,
So Gad came to David and said to him, The Lord says, Take whichever you will:
12 I na makahiki wi ekolu paha; a ekolu na malama paha e hee ai imua o kou poe enemi, a loaa mai oukou i ka pahikaua o kou poe enemi; a eia paha, ekolu la o ka pahikaua o Iehova, oia ke ahulau ma ka aina, a o ka anela o Iehova e luku mai ana ma na palena a pau o ka Iseraela. Nolaila hoi, e kuka iho oe i ka olelo na'u e hoihoi aku i ka mea nana au i hoouna mai.
Three years when there will not be enough food; or three months of war, when you will go in flight before your haters, being in great danger of the sword; or three days of the sword of the Lord, disease in the land, and the angel of the Lord taking destruction through all the land of Israel. Now give thought to the answer I am to take back to him who sent me.
13 Olelo mai la o Davida ia Gada, He pilikia nui ko'u: e aho e haule iho au ano iloko o ka lima o Iehova; no ka mea, he nui loa kona aloha: aole au make haule iloko o ka lima o kanaka.
And David said to Gad, This is a hard decision for me to make: let me come into the hands of the Lord, for great are his mercies: let me not come into the hands of men.
14 A hoouna mai la o Iehova i ke ahulau iluna o ka Iseraela; a make iho la na kanaka o ka Iseraela he kanahiku tausani.
So the Lord sent disease on Israel, causing the death of seventy thousand men.
15 A hoouna mai la ke Akua i kekahi anela i Ierusalema e luku iho ia wahi: a i kona luku ana, nana mai la o Iehova, a hoololi iho la i kona manao hoino mai; a i mai la ia i ka anela nana i luku mai, U'oki, e alia kou lima ano. A ku iho la ka anela o Iehova ma kahi hehi palaoa o Orenana ka Iebusa.
And God sent an angel to Jerusalem for its destruction: and when he was about to do so, the Lord saw, and had regret for the evil, and said to the angel of destruction, It is enough; do no more. Now the angel of the Lord was by the grain-floor of Ornan the Jebusite.
16 Nana ae la na maka o Davida iluna, a ike aku la i ka anela o Iehova e ku ana mawaena o ka honua a o ka lani, a he pahikaua i unuhiia ma kona lima i oia'ku maluna o Ierusalema. Alaila, o Davida a me na lunakahiko i aahuia i ke kapa inoino, haule iho la lakou ilalo ke alo.
And David, lifting up his eyes, saw the angel of the Lord there between earth and heaven, with an uncovered sword in his hand stretched out over Jerusalem. Then David and the responsible men, clothed in haircloth, went down on their faces.
17 Olelo aku la o Davida i ke Akua, Aole anei owau ka mea i kauoha aku e heluia'i na kanaka? Owau io no ka mea i hewa, a i hana i keia mea ino maoli. Aka, o keia poe hipa, heaha ka lakou i hana'i? Ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e Iehova kuu Akua, e kau mai i kou lima maluna iho o'u a o ka ohana a ko'u makuakane; aole maluna o kou poe kanaka, e make ai lakou.
And David said to God, Was it not I who gave the order for the people to be numbered? It is I who have done the sin and the great wrong; but these are only sheep; what have they done? let your hand, O Lord God, be lifted up against me and against my family, but not against your people to send disease on them.
18 Alaila, kauoha mai la ka anela o Iehova ia Gada, e olelo aku ia Davida, e pii aku o Davida, a e kukulu i kuahu no Iehova ma kahi hehi palaoa o Orenana ka Iebusa.
Then the angel of the Lord gave orders to Gad to say to David that he was to go and put up an altar to the Lord on the grain-floor of Ornan the Jebusite.
19 Pii aku la o Davida no ka olelo ana a Gada, ana i olelo ai ma ka inoa o Iehova.
And David went up, as Gad had said in the name of the Lord.
20 Haliu ae la o Orenana ihope, a ike aku la i ka anela, alaila pee iho la oia a me kana mau keikikane eha me ia. E hehi palaoa ana o Orenana.
And Ornan, turning back, saw the angel, and his four sons who were with him went to a secret place. Now Ornan was crushing his grain.
21 A i ka hele ana mai o Davida io Orenana la, nana ae la o Orenana, a ike aku la ia Davida, a hele aku la ia iwaho o kahi hehi palaoa, a kulou iho la ia imua o Davida, ilalo ke alo ma ka honua.
And when David came, Ornan, looking, saw him, and came out from the grain-floor and went down on his face to the earth before him.
22 Alaila, i mai la o Davida ia Orenana, E haawi mai oe i ka wahi hehi palaoa, i kukulu iho ai au ilaila i kuahu no Iehova: e haawi mai oe ia'u ia no ke kumukuai maoli: i hookiia'i ke ahulau mai na kanaka aku.
Then David said to Ornan, Give me the place where this grain-floor is, so that I may put up an altar here to the Lord: let me have it for its full price; so that this disease may be stopped among the people.
23 I aku la o Orenana ia Davida, E lawe oe nou, a e hana iho kuu haku ke alii i ka mea pono imua o kona maka. Aia hoi, ke haawi aku nei au i na bipi no na mohaikuni, a me na laau kaa palaoa i wahie, a me ka palaoa i mohaiai: ke haawi aku nei au ia a pau loa.
And Ornan said to David, Take it, and let my lord the king do what seems right to him. See, I give you the oxen for burned offerings and the grain-cleaning instruments for fire-wood, and the grain for the meal offering; I give it all.
24 Olelo mai la o Davida ke alii ia Orenana, Aole, aka, he oiaio no, e kuai no au ia wahi no ke kumukuai maoli: no ka mea, aole au e lawe i kau no Iehova, aole hoi e kaumaha aku i na mohaikuni i kuai ole ia.
And King David said to Ornan, No; I will certainly give you the full price for it, because I will not take for the Lord what is yours, or give a burned offering without payment.
25 A uku aku o Davida ia Orenana i eono haneri sekela gula ma ke kaupaona ana, no ia wahi.
So David gave Ornan six hundred shekels of gold by weight for the place.
26 A hana iho la o Davida i kuahu no Iehova malaila, a kaumaha aku la i na mohaikuni, a me na mohai hoomalu, a kahea aku la oia ia Iehova; a maliu mai la oia ia ia mai ka lani mai i ke ahi maluna o ke kuahu mohaikuni.
And David put up an altar there to the Lord, offering burned offerings and peace-offerings with prayers to the Lord; and he gave him an answer from heaven, sending fire on the altar of burned offering.
27 Kauoha mai la o Iehova i ka anela; a hoihoi ae la ia i ka pahikaua maloko o kona wahi.
Then the Lord gave orders to the angel, and he put back his sword into its cover.
28 Ia manawa no, a ike aku la o Davida ua maliu mai o Iehova ia ia ma kahi hehi palaoa o Orenana ka Iebusa, alaila mohai aku la ia ma ia wahi.
At that time, when David saw that the Lord had given him an answer on the grain-floor of Ornan the Jebusite, he made an offering there.
29 No ka mea, o ka halelewa o Iehova, a Mose i hana'i iloko o ka waoakua, a me ke kuahu mohaikuni, aia no ia i kela manawa ma kahi kiekie o Gibeona.
For the House of the Lord, which Moses had made in the waste land, and the altar of burned offerings, were at that time in the high place at Gibeon.
30 Aka, aole i hiki ia Davida ke hele ilaila e ninau i ke Akua imua ona: no ka mea, ua makau oia i ka pahikaua o ka anela o Iehova.
But David was not able to go before it to get directions from the Lord, so great was his fear of the sword of the angel of the Lord.
