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.
Then the accuser stood up, against Israel, —and moved David, to number 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 unto Joab and unto the rulers of the people, Go, number Israel, from Beer-sheba even unto Dan, —and bring [the report] unto me, that I may know the number of them.
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?
Then said Joab, May Yahweh add unto his people, as many as they are, a hundred times, but are they not, my lord O king, all of them my lord’s, as servants? wherefore should my lord seek this? wherefore should it become guilt 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 word of the king, prevailed against Joab, —and Joab departed, and went to and fro throughout 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 delivered the sum of the number of the people, unto David, —and all Israel was found to be a thousand thousand and a hundred thousand men, who drew sword, and Judah, four hundred and seventy thousand men, who drew sword.
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, counted he not among them, —for detestable was the word of the king unto Joab.
7 A he hewa no ia mea imua o na maka o Iehova; nolaila ia i hahau ai i ka Iseraela.
And it was displeasing in the eyes of God, concerning this thing, —therefore smote he 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.
And David said unto God, I have sinned greatly, in that I have done this thing, —but, now, I beseech thee, take away the iniquity of thy servant, for I have shown myself very foolish.
9 Olelo mai la o Iehova ia Gada i ko Davida kaula, i mai la,
Then spake Yahweh unto Gad, the seer of David 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 thou shalt speak unto David, saying, Thus, saith Yahweh, Three things, do I offer thee, —choose thee one from among them, that I may do it unto thee.
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 unto David, —and said to him, Thus, saith Yahweh,
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.
Choose thee: —Whether, for three years, [there be] famine, Or, for three months, that thou flee before thine adversaries, while the sword of thine enemies overtaketh thee, Or, for three days, the sword of Yahweh, and pestilence be in the land, with, the messenger of Yahweh, laying waste throughout all the boundary of Israel, —Now, therefore, see, what, answer, I shall return unto him that 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 unto Gad, I am in a great strait, —Oh let me fall, I pray thee, into the hand of Yahweh, for abounding are his compassions, exceedingly, but, into the hand of man, let me not fall.
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 Yahweh laid pestilence, upon Israel, —and there fell, of Israel, 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 a messenger to Jerusalem, to lay it waste, but, as he was laying it waste, Yahweh looked, and relented concerning the calamity, and said unto the messenger who was laying waste, Enough! now, stay thy hand. And, the messenger of Yahweh, was standing by the threshing-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, when David lifted up his eyes, and saw the messenger of Yahweh, standing, between the earth and the heavens, and his sword drawn, in his hand, stretched out over Jerusalem, then fell David and the elders, clothed in sackcloth, upon 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 unto God, Was it not, I, who gave word to number the people? Yea, I, it was who sinned and did the great wrong, what then had, these sheep, done? O Yahweh, my God, let thy hand, I beseech thee, be against me, and against the house of my father, but not against, thy people, that they should be plagued!
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.
And, the messenger of Yahweh, commanded Gad, to say unto David, —that David should go up, to rear an altar unto Yahweh, in the threshing-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.
So David went up, according to the word of Gad, which he spake in the name of Yahweh.
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 turned, and saw the messenger, but, his four sons with him, were hiding themselves, —now, Ornan, had been threshing wheat.
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.
Then came David unto Ornan, —and Ornan looked, and saw David, and went forth out of the threshing-floor, and bowed himself unto David, with his face to the ground.
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.
And David said unto Ornan, Grant me the place of the threshing-floor, that I may build thereon an altar, unto Yahweh, —for silver in full, shalt thou grant it me, that the plague may be stayed from off 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 unto David, Take it to thee, and let my lord the king do what is good in his own eyes, —see! I have given the oxen for ascending-sacrifices, and, the threshing implements for wood, and the wheat for a meal-offering, —the whole, have I given.
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.
Then said King David to Ornan, Nay! but I will, surely buy, it for silver in full, —for I will not take that which is thine for Yahweh, nor offer an ascending-sacrifice that hath cost me nothing.
25 A uku aku o Davida ia Orenana i eono haneri sekela gula ma ke kaupaona ana, no ia wahi.
So David gave to Ornan, for the place, —shekels of gold, by weight, six hundred.
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 built there an altar unto Yahweh, and caused to go up ascending-sacrifices, and peace-offerings, —and called unto Yahweh, and he responded to him, by fire, out of the heavens, upon the altar of ascending-sacrifice.
27 Kauoha mai la o Iehova i ka anela; a hoihoi ae la ia i ka pahikaua maloko o kona wahi.
And Yahweh gave word to tile messenger, and he put back his sword into its sheath.
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 Yahweh had answered him in the threshing-floor of Ornan the Jebusite, then he sacrificed 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.
But, the habitation of Yahweh, which Moses made in the desert, and the altar of ascending-sacrifice, 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.
and David could not go before it, to seek God, —for he had been terrified, because of the sword of the messenger of Yahweh.
