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 began to reign; and two years he reigned 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 of Israel; whereof two thousand were with Saul in Michmas and in the mount of Beth-el, and a thousand were with Jonathan in Gibeath-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 garrison of the Philistines that was in Geba, and the Philistines heard of it. And Saul blew the horn throughout all 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 that Saul had smitten the garrison of the Philistines, and that Israel also had made himself odious with the Philistines. And the people were gathered 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 assembled themselves 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 pitched in Michmas, eastward of 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.

When the men of Israel saw that they were in a strait — for the people were distressed — then the people did hide themselves in caves, and in thickets, and in rocks, and in holds, 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.

Now some of the Hebrews had gone over the Jordan to the land of Gad and Gilead; but as for Saul, he 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 tarried seven days, according to the set time that Samuel had appointed; but Samuel came not 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 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 that, as soon as he had made an end of offering 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 camest not within the days appointed, and that the Philistines assembled themselves together against Michmas;

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.

therefore said I: Now will the Philistines come down upon me to Gilgal, and I have not entreated the favour of the LORD; I forced myself therefore, and offered 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 the LORD thy God, which He commanded thee; for now would the LORD have established thy kingdom upon 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; the LORD hath sought him a man after His own heart, and the LORD hath appointed him to be prince over His people, because thou hast not kept that which the LORD 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 got him up from Gilgal unto Gibeath-benjamin. And Saul numbered the people that were present 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 present with them, abode in Gibeath-benjamin; but the Philistines encamped in Michmas.

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 spoilers came out of the camp of the Philistines in three companies: one company turned unto the way that leadeth to Ophrah, unto 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 another company turned the way of the border that looketh down upon the valley 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 all 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.

but all the Israelites went down to the Philistines, to sharpen every man his plowshare, and his coulter, and his axe, and his mattock.

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.

And the price of the filing was a pim for the mattocks, and for the coulters, and for the forks with three teeth, and for the axes; 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.

So 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 was there found.

23 A hele aku la ka poe koa o ko Pilisetia i ke ala ololi o Mikemasa.

And the garrison of the Philistines went out unto the pass of Michmas.
