< I Samuela 13 >

1 HOOKAHI makahiki o ko Saula alii ana: a pau na makahiki elua o kona alii ana,
Saul was...years old when he became king; and he reigned two years over Israel.
2 Wae aku la o Saula nona i ekolu tausani kanaka o ka Iseraela; elua tausaui me Saula ma Mikemasa, a ma ka mauna o Betela, a hookahi tausani me Ionatana ma Gibea o Beniamina; a hoihoi aku la ia i na kanaka i koe i ko lakou halelewa iho.
And Saul chose him three thousand men out of Israel: there were with Saul two thousand in Michmash and in mount Bethel, and a thousand were with Jonathan in Gibeah of Benjamin; and the rest of the people he sent every man to his tent.
3 A luku aku la o Ionatana i ka poe koa o ko Pilisetia ma Geba; a lohe ko Pilisetia, A puhi aku la o Saula i ka pu ma ka aina a pau, i ka i ana'e, E hoolohe ka poe Hebera.
And Jonathan smote the outpost of the Philistines that was in Geba, and the Philistines heard [of it]. And Saul blew the trumpet throughout the land, saying, Let the Hebrews hear.
4 A lohe ae la ka Iseraela a pau i ka mea i oleloia mai, ua pepehi o Saula i ka poe koa o ko Pilisetia, a ua hoowahawahaia o ka Iseraela e ko Pilisetia. A ua houluuluia na kanaka mahope o Saula ma Gilegala.
And all Israel heard say, Saul has smitten the garrison of the Philistines, and Israel also has become odious to the Philistines. And the people were called together after Saul to Gilgal.
5 Hoakoakoa ae la ko Pilisetia e kaua aku i ka Iseraela, he kanakolu tausani halekaa, eono tausani hoohololio, a me na kanaka e like me ke one ma kahakai he nui loa; a hele mai lakou, a hoomoana ma Mikemasa, ma ka hikina o Betavena.
And the Philistines were assembled together to fight with Israel, thirty thousand chariots, and six thousand horsemen, and people as the sand which is on the sea-shore in multitude; and they came up, and encamped in Michmash, eastward from Beth-Aven.
6 A ike aku la na kanaka o ka Iseraela i ko lakou popilikia, (no ka mea, ua pilikia na kanaka, ) pee aku la na kanaka iloko o na ana, a maloko o na laau kuku, a ma na pohaku, a me na wahi kiekie, a maloko o na lua.
And the men of Israel saw that they were in a strait (for the people were distressed); and the people hid themselves in caves, and in thickets, and in cliffs, and in strongholds, and in pits.
7 A o kekahi poe Hebera hele aku la ma kela aoao o Ioredane ma ka aina o Gada, a o Gileada: a ma Gilegala o Saula, a haalulu na kanaka mamuli ona.
And the Hebrews went over the Jordan into the land of Gad and Gilead. And Saul was yet in Gilgal, and all the people followed him trembling.
8 Noho iho la ia i na la ehiku e like me ka manawa a Samuela i olelo ai: aole i hiki mai o Samuela ma Gilegala; a ua hele liilii na kanaka mai ona aku la.
And he waited seven days, according to the set time that Samuel [had appointed]; but Samuel did not come to Gilgal; and the people were scattered from him.
9 Olelo aku la o Saula, E lawe mai ia'u i mohaikuni, a me na mohai hoomalu. Kaumaha aku la ia i ka mohaikuni.
And Saul said, Bring hither to me the burnt-offering and the peace-offerings. And he offered up the burnt-offering.
10 A i ka manawa i pau ai kana kaumaha ana aku i ka mohaikuni, aia hoi, hiki mai la o Samuela; hele aku la o Saula e halawai me ia, e hoomaikai aku ia ia.
And it came to pass, as soon as he had ended offering up the burnt-offering, behold, Samuel came; and Saul went out to meet him, that he might salute him.
11 Ninau aku la o Samuela, Heaha kau i hana'i? I mai la o Saula, No ka'u ike ana i na kanaka e hele liilii ana mai o'u aku nei, a no kou hiki ole mai i na la i oleloia'i, a no ka hoakoakoa ana o ko Pilisetia ma Mikemasa;
And Samuel said, What hast thou done? And Saul said, Because I saw that the people were scattered from me, and that thou didst not come within the days appointed, and that the Philistines were assembled at Michmash,
12 Nolaila, i iho la au, e iho mai auanei ko Pilisetia maluna o'u ma Gilegala, aole au i noi aku ia Iehova: no ia mea, hooikaika iho la au ia'u iho, a kaumaha aku la i ka mohaikuni.
I said, The Philistines will come down now upon me to Gilgal, and I have not made supplication to Jehovah; and I forced myself, and offered up the burnt-offering.
13 Olelo aku la o Samuela ia Saula, Ua hana naaupo oe, aole oe i malama i ke kauoha a Iehova kou Akua, ana i kauoha mai ai ia oe; i hookupaa mau loa ai o Iehova i kou aupuni maluna o ka Iseraela.
And Samuel said to Saul, Thou hast done foolishly: thou hast not kept the commandment of Jehovah thy God which he commanded thee; for now would Jehovah have established thy kingdom over Israel for ever.
14 Ano hoi, aole e mau ana kou aupuni; ua imi mai o Iehova i kanaka nona e like me kona naau iho, a ua hoonoho mai o Iehova ia ia i luna no kona poe kanaka, no kou malama ole i ka mea a Iehova i kauoha mai ai ia oe.
But now thy kingdom shall not continue: Jehovah has sought him a man after his own heart, and Jehovah has appointed him ruler over his people; for thou hast not kept what Jehovah commanded thee.
15 Ku ae la o Samuela, a pii aku la mai Gilegala aku a i Gibea o Beniamina. A helu aku la o Saula i na kanaka me ia, aono paha haneri kanaka.
And Samuel arose and went up from Gilgal to Gibeah of Benjamin. And Saul numbered the people that were found with him, about six hundred men.
16 A o Saula a me Ionatana kana keiki, a o na kanaka me laua, noho iho la ma Gibea o Beniamina: aka, hoomoana iho la ko Pilisetia ma Mikemasa.
And Saul, and Jonathan his son, and the people that were found with them, abode in Geba of Benjamin; and the Philistines encamped in Michmash.
17 Hele mai la ka poe luku, mai ka poe koa o ko Pilisetia mai, ekolu poe: huli ae la kekahi poe ma ke ala o Opera ma ka aina o Suala.
And the ravagers came out of the camp of the Philistines in three companies: one company turned the way of Ophrah, into the land of Shual;
18 Huli ae la kekahi poe ma ke ala o Betahorona; a huli ae kekahi poe ma ke ala o ka mokuna e ku pono ana i ke awawa o Zeboima, ma ka waonahele.
and another company turned the way to Beth-horon; and the other company turned the way to the district that looks over the ravine of Zeboim toward the wilderness.
19 Aole no i loaa ka amara ma ka aina a pau o ka Iseraela; no ka mea, i ae la ko Pilisetia, O hana auanei ka poe Hebera i ka pahikaua, a i ka ihe paha na lakou.
Now there was no smith found throughout the land of Israel; for the Philistines said, Lest the Hebrews make them swords or spears.
20 Aka, hele no ka Iseraela a pau i ko Pilisetia e hana'i i kana oopalau, a me kana ho, a me kana koilipi, a me kana oo.
And all Israel went down to the Philistines, every man to get his ploughshare, and his hoe, and his axe, and his sickle sharpened,
21 He apuapu nae ia lakou no ka oopalau, a no na ho, a no na o manamana, a no na koilipi, a no ka hookala i na kui.
when the edges of the sickles, and the hoes, and the forks, and the axes were blunted; and to set the goads.
22 A i ka la i kaua ai, aole he pahikaua, aole hoi he ihe ma ka lima o na kanaka me Saula, a me Ionatana: aka, ua loaa ia Saula a me Ionatana kana keiki.
And it came to pass in the day of battle, that there was neither sword nor spear found in the hand of any of the people that were with Saul and Jonathan; but with Saul and with Jonathan his son there was found.
23 A hele aku la ka poe koa o ko Pilisetia i ke ala ololi o Mikemasa.
And a garrison of the Philistines went out to the passage of Michmash.
