I Samuela 14

1 A I kekahi la, olelo aku la o Ionatana ke keiki a Saula ike kanaka ui, nana i hali kana mea kaua, Ea, e hele kaua i ka pakaua o ko Pilisetia ma kela aoao. Aka, aole ia i hai aku i kona makuakane.

Now it came to pass one day that Jonathan the son of Saul said to the young man that bore his armour: Come, and let us go over to the garrison of the Philistines, which is on the other side of yonder place. But he told not this to his father.

2 Noho iho la o Saula ma ka aoao mamao loa o Gibea, malalo o ka laau pomegerane ma Migerona: a o na Kanaka me ia, aono paha haneri lakou;

And Saul abode in the uttermost part of Gabaa under the pomegranate tree, which was in Magron: and the people with him were about six hundred men.

3 A o Ahia, ke keiki a Ahituba, a ke kaikuaana o Ikaboda, ke keiki a Pinehasa, ke keiki a Eli, ke kahuna a Iehova ma Silo, ua hookomoia ka epoda. Aole i ike na kanaka, ua hala o Ionatana.

And Achias the son of Achitob brother to Ichabod the son of Phinees, the son of Heli the priest of the Lord in Silo, wore the ephod. And the people knew not whither Jonathan was gone.

4 A ma ke ala a Ionatana i imi ai e hele i ka poe koa o ko Pilisetia, he pohaku oi ma keia aoao, a he pohaku oi ma kela aoao: o Bozeza ka inoa o kekahi, a o Sene ka inoa o kekahi.

Now there were between the ascents, by which Jonathan sought to go over to the garrison of the Philistines, rocks standing up on both sides, and steep cliffs like teeth on the one side, and on the other, the name of the one was Boses, and the name of the other was Sene:

5 A o ka mea oi o kekahi, ua kiekie ia ma ke kukuluakau e ku pono ana i Mikemasa, a o kekahi ma ke kukuluhema e ku pono ana i Gibea.

One rock stood out towards the north over against Machmas, and the other to the south over against Gabaa.

6 Olelo aku la o Ionatana i ke kanaka ui, nana i hali kana mea kaua, Ea, e hele kaua i kahi paa o ua poe la i okipoepoe ole ia: e hana mai paha o Iehova no kaua; no ka mea, aohe mea keakea ia Iehova, ke hoola ma ka poe nui, a ma ka poe uuku.

And Jonathan said to the young man that bore his armour: Come, let us go over to the garrison of these uncircumcised, it may be the Lord will do for us, because it is easy for the Lord to save either by many, or by few.

7 I mai la ka mea nana i hali kana mea kaua ia ia, E hana oe i ka mea a pau maloko o kou naau: o hele; aia hoi, owau pu kekahi me oe e like me kou manao.

And his armourbearer said to him: Do all that pleaseth thy mind: go whither thou wilt, and I will be with thee wheresoever thou hast a mind.

8 Olelo aku la o Ionatana, Aia hoi, e hele kaua i ua poe kanaka la, a e hoike ia kaua iho ia lakou.

And Jonathan said: Behold we will go over to these men. And when we shall be seen by them,

9 Ina e olelo mai lakou ia kaua peneia, E noho malie olua a hiki aku makou io olua la; alaila ku malie kaua ma ko kaua wahi, aole e pii aku io lakou la.

If they shall speak thus to us: Stay till we come to you: let us stand still in our place, and not go up to them.

10 Aka, i olelo mai lakou ia kaua peneia, E pii mai olua io makou nei; alaila e pii aku kaua: no ka mea, ua hoolilo mai o Iehova ia lakou i ko kaua lima; a oia ka hoailona no kaua.

But if they shall say: Come up to us: let us go up, because the Lord hath delivered them into our hands, this shall be a sign unto us.

11 Hoike aku la laua ia laua iho i ka poe koa o ko Pilisetia: i ae la ko Pilisetia, E nana i ka poe Hebera e hele mai ana mailoko mai o na lua a lakou i pee ai.

So both of them discovered themselves to the garrison of the Philistines: and the Philistines said: Behold the Hebrews come forth out of the holes wherein they were hid.

12 Olelo mai la na kanaka o ka poe koa ia Ionatana, a me ka mea nana i hali kana mea kaua, i mai la, E pii mai olua io makou nei, a e hoike aku makou ia olua i kekahi mea. I aku la Ionatana i ka mea nana i hali kana mea kaua, E pii mai oe mahope o'u; no ka mea, ua hoolilo mai o Iehova ia lakou iloko o ka lima o ka Iseraela.

And the men of the garrison spoke to Jonathan, and to his armourbearer, and said: Come up to us, and we will shew you a thing. And Jonathan said to his armourbearer: Let us go up, follow me: for the Lord hath delivered them into the hands of Israel.

13 Pii ae la o Ionatana ma kona lima, a ma kona wawae, a o ka mea nana i hali kana mea kaua mahope ona: a haule lakou imua o Ionatana; a o ka mea nana i hali kana mea kaua pepehi aku la ia mahope ona.

And Jonathan went up creeping on his hands and feet, and his armourbearer after him. And some fell before Jonathan, others his armourbearer slew as he followed him.

14 A o ka pepehi mua ana a Ionatana a me ka mea nana i hali kana mea kaua, he iwakalua paha kanaka ia, ma kahi kokoke, e like paha me ka hapalua o ka eka aina hookahi.

And the first slaughter which Jonathan and his armourbearer made, was of about twenty men, within half an acre of land, which a yoke of oxen is wont to plough in a day.

15 He haalulu iwaena o ka poe koa ma ke kula, a iwaena o na kanaka a pau; a o ka poe kaua, a o ka poe luku, haalulu iho la lakou, nauwe ka aina; a he haalulu nui.

And there was a miracle in the camp, through the fields: yea and all the people of their garrison, who had gone out to plunder, were amazed, and the earth trembled: and it happened as a miracle from God.

16 Nana aku la ka poe kiai o Saula ma Gibea o Beniamina; aia hoi, ua hee aku la ka poe nui, a holo lakou, a hele liilii aku.

And the watchmen of Saul, who were in Gabaa of Benjamin looked, and behold a multitude overthrown, and fleeing this way and that.

17 Olelo aku la o Saula i na kanaka me ia, E helu ano, i ike kakou i ka mea i hele ae mai o kakou aku. Helu aku la lakou, aia hoi, aole o Ionatana, a me ka mea nana i hali kana mea kaua.

And Saul said to the people that were with him: Look, and see who is gone from us. And when they had sought, it was found that Jonathan and his armourbearer were not there.

18 I aku la o Saula ia Ahia, E lawe mai maanei i ka pahu o ke Akua: no ka mea, i kela manawa, aia no ka pahu o ke Akua me na mamo a Iseraela.

And Saul said to Achias: Bring the ark of the Lord. (For the ark of God was there that day with the children of Israel.)

19 A ia Saula i kamailio ai me ke kahuna, ua nui loa ka haunaele iwaena o ka poe koa o ko Pilisetia; i aku la o Saula i ke kahuna, E hoi hou mai i kou lima.

And while Saul spoke to the priest, there arose a great uproar in the camp of the Philistines: and it increased by degrees, and was heard more clearly. And Saul said to the priest: Draw in thy hand.

20 Houluuluia'e la o Saula me na kanaka a pau me ia, a hele aku i ke kaua: aia hoi, ua ku e ka pahikaua a kela kanaka keia kanaka i kona hoa, a ua nui loa ka pioloke.

Then Saul and all the people that were with him, shouted together, and they came to the place of the fight: and behold every man’s sword was turned upon his neighbour, and there was a very great slaughter.

21 A o ka poe Hebera i noho ai me ko Pilisetia mamua, a i hele pu ai me lakou i kahi hoomoana'i, mai kela wahi keia wahi, o lakou kekahi i hui pu ai me ka Iseraela me Saula a me Ionatana.

Moreover the Hebrews that had been with the Philistines yesterday and the day before, and went up with them into the camp, returned to be with the Israelites, who were with Saul and Jonathan.

22 A o na kanaka a pau o ka Iseraela i pee ai ma ka mauna o Eperaima, ia lakou i lohe ai, ua holo ko Pilisetia, o lakou no hoi kekahi i hahai mahope o lakou i ke kaua.

And all the Israelites that had hid themselves in mount Ephraim, hearing that the Philistines fled, joined themselves with their countrymen in the fight. And there were with Saul about ten thousand men.

23 A hoopakele mai o Iehova i ka Iseraela ia la: a hele aku la ke kaua ma Betavena.

And the Lord saved Israel that day. And the fight went on as far as Bethaven.

24 A ua pilikia na kanaka o ka Iseraela ia la: no ka mea, ua hoohiki aku o Saula i na kauaka, i aku la, Poino ke kanaka, ke ai ia i ka ai a hiki i ke ahiahi, i hoopai aku ai au i ko'u poe enemi. Nolaila, aole i ai na kanaka i ka ai.

And the men of Israel were joined together that day; and Saul adjured the people, saying: Cursed be the man that shall eat food till evening, till I be revenged of my enemies. So none of the people tasted any food:

25 A hele na kanaka a pau ma ka ululaau; a he meli maluna o ka aina.

And all the common people came into a forest, in which there was honey upon the ground.

26 A hiki na kanaka ma ka ululaau, aia hoi, e kahe ana o ka meli, aole ka lima o kekahi kanaka i hoopa aku i kona waha: no ka mea, makau na kanaka i ka hoohiki ana.

And when the people came into the forest, behold the honey dropped, but no man put his hand to his mouth. For the people feared the oath.

27 Aka, aole i lohe o Ionatana i ke kauoha a kona makuakane i na kanaka i ka hoohiki ana; nolaila, o aku la ia i ke kookoo ma kona lima, a hou iho la iloko o ka waihona meli, a hoopa kona lima i kona waha, a hoomalamalamaia kona mau maka.

But Jonathan had not heard when his father adjured the people: and he put forth the end of the rod, which he had in his hand, and dipt it in a honeycomb: and he carried his hand to his mouth, and his eyes were enlightened.

28 Alaila, olelo mai la kekahi o na kanaka, i mai la, Ua kauoha ikaika mai kou makuakane i na kanaka me ka hoohiki, i mai la, Poino ke kanaka, ke ai i ka ai i keia la. A ua nawaliwali na kanaka.

And one of the people answering, said: Thy father hath bound the people with an oath, saying: Cursed be the man that shall eat any food this day. (And the people were faint.)

29 Olelo aku la o Ionatana, i aku la, Ua hoopilikia ko'u makuakane i ka aina: ke noi aku nei au ia oukou, e nana, ua hoomalamalamaia ko'u mau maka, no kuu hoao ana i kauwahi uuku o keia meli.

And Jonathan said: My father hath troubled the land: you have seen yourselves that my eyes are enlightened, because I tasted a little of this honey:

30 Aole anei he nui aku, ina paha ua ai nui na kanaka i keia la i ka mea o ko lakou poe enemi i loaa ai ia lakou? Aole anei he nui aku ka luku iwaena o ko Pilisetia?

How much more if the people had eaten of the prey of their enemies, which they found? had there not been made a greater slaughter among the Philistines?

31 A luku aku la lakou i ko Pilisetia ia la, mai Mikemasa a hiki i Aialona: a ua nawaliwali loa na kanaka.

So they smote that day the Philistines from Machmas to Ailon. And the people were wearied exceedingly.

32 Lalau aku la na kanaka i ka waiwai pio, a lawe i na hipa, a me na bipi, a me na bipikeiki, a pepehi iho la ma ka aina; a ai iho la na kanaka me ke koko.

And falling upon the spoils, they took sheep, and oxen, and calves, and slew them on the ground: and the people ate them with the blood.

33 Hai aku la lakou ia Saula, i aku la, Aia hoi, ke hana hewa nei na kanaka ia Iehova, i ka lakou ai ana me ke koko. I mai la kela, Ua hana pono ole oukou: e olokaa mai i pohaku nui io'u nei i keia la.

And they told Saul that the people had sinned against the Lord, eating with the blood. And he said: You have transgressed: roll here to me now a great stone.

34 Olelo aku la o Saula, E hele oukou iwaena o na kanaka, e i aku ia lakou, E lawe mai io'u nei kela kanaka keia kanaka i kana bipi a me kana hipa, a e pepehi maanei, a ai iho; a mai hana hewa ia Iehova i ka ai ana me ke koko. A lawe mai la na kanaka a pau, o kela kanaka keia kanaka i kana bipi, me ia ia po, a pepehi iho la malaila.

And Saul said: Disperse yourselves among the people, and tell them to bring me every man his ox and his ram, and slay them upon this stone, and eat, and you shall not sin against the Lord in eating with the blood. So all the people brought every man his ox with him till the night: and slew them there.

35 Hana aku la o Saula i kuahu no Iehova, oia ke kuahu ana i hoomaka ai e hana no Iehova.

And Saul built an altar to the Lord and he then first began to build an altar to the Lord.

36 I aku la o Saula, E hahai aku kakou i ko Pilisetia i ka po, a e luku aku ia lakou a hiki i ka malamalama o ke ao, a mai waiho kakou i kekahi kauaka o lakou. I mai la lakou, E hana oe i ka mea pono i kou maka. I mai la ke kahuna, E hookoke mai nei kakou i ke Akua.

And Saul said: Let us fall upon the Philistines by night, and destroy them till the morning light, and let us not leave a man of them. And the people said: Do all that seemeth good in thy eyes. And the priest said: Let us draw near hither unto God.

37 Ninau aku la o Saula i ke Akua, E hahai aku anei au i ko Pilisetia? e hoolilo mai anei oe ia lakou i ka lima o ka Iseraela? Aka, aole ia i olelo mai ia ia ia la.

And Saul consulted the Lord: Shall I pursue after the Philistines? wilt thou deliver them into the hands of Israel? And he answered him not that day.

38 Olelo aku la o Saula, E hookokoke mai oukou ia nei, e na alakai o na kanaka; i ike pono kakou i ka mea o keia hewa i keia la.

And Saul said: Bring hither all the corners of the people: and know, and see by whom this sin hath happened today.

39 No ka mea, ma ke ola o Iehova nana i hoola i ka Iseraela, ina paha iloko o Ionatana ka'u keiki keia mea, e make io no ia. Aole kekahi kanaka iwaena o ka Iseraela i olelo mai ia ia.

As the Lord liveth who is the saviour of Israel, if it was done by Jonathan my son, he shall surely die. In this none of the people gainsaid him.

40 Olelo aku la ia i ka Iseraela a pau, O oukou ma kekahi aoao, a owau a me Ionatana kuu keiki, ma kekahi aoao. I mai la na kanaka ia Saula, E hana oe i ka mea pono i kou maka.

And he said to all Israel: Be you on one side, and I with Jonathan my son will be on the other side. And the people answered Saul: Do what seemeth good in thy eyes.

41 Olelo aku la o Saula ia Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela, E hoike mai i ka oiaio. A ua laweia o Saula a me Ionatana: a pakele na kanaka.

And Saul said to the Lord: O Lord God of Israel, give a sign, by which we may know, what the meaning is, that thou answerest not thy servant today. If this iniquity be in me, or in my son Jonathan, give a proof: or if this iniquity be in thy people, give holiness. And Jonathan and Saul were taken, and the people escaped.

42 I aku la o Saula, E hailona iwaena o maua a me Ionatana kuu keiki. A ua laweia o Ionatana.

And Saul said: Cast lots between me, and Jonathan my son. And Jonathan was taken.

43 Alaila i aku la o Saula ia Ionatana, E hai mai oe ia'u i kau mea i hana'i. Hai aku la o Ionatana, i aku la, Ua hoao iho au i kahi meli uuku wale no me ke kookoo ma kuu lima, aia hoi, e make ana au.

And Saul said to Jonathan: Tell me what thou hast done. And Jonathan told him, and said: I did but taste a little honey with the end of the rod, which was in my hand, and behold I must die.

44 I aku la o Saula, Pela ke Akua e hana mai ai, pela io hoi, no ka mea, e make io no oe, e Ionatana.

And Saul said: May God do so and so to me, and add still more: for dying thou shalt die, O Jonathan.

45 Olelo mai la na kanaka ia Saula, E make anei o Ionatana, nana i hana keia ola nui iwaena o ka Iseraela? Aole loa, ma ke ola o Iehova, aole e haule iho ma ka honua kekahi lauoho o kona poo; no ka mea, ua hana pu aku ia me ke Akua i keia la. A hoopakele aku la na kanaka ia Ionatana, aole ia i make.

And the people said to Saul: Shall Jonathan then die, who hath wrought this great salvation in Israel? This must not be. As the Lord liveth, there shall not one hair of his head fall to the ground, for he hath wrought with God this day. So the people delivered Jonathan, that he should not die.

46 Haalele aku la o Saula i ka hahai ana i ko Pilisetia: a hoi aku la ko Pilisetia i ko lakou wahi.

And Saul went back, and did not pursue after the Philistines: and the Philistines went to their own places.

47 A lawe ae la o Saula i ke aupuni o ka Iseraela, a kana aku la i kona poe enemi a pau, ma na aoao a pau i ko Moaba, a me na mamo a Amona, a me ka Edoma, a me na'lii o Zoba, a me ko Pilisetia, a ma na wahi a pau ana i huli ae, ua lanakila ia.

And Saul having his kingdom established over Israel, fought against all his enemies round about, against Moab, and against the children of Ammon, and Edom, and the kings of Soba, and the Philistines; and whithersoever he turned himself, he overcame.

48 Hana ikaika aku la ia, a luku aku la i ka Ameleka, a hoopakele i ka Iseraela i ka lima o ka poe i luku mai ia lakou.

And gathering together an army, he defeated Amalec, and delivered Israel from the hand of them that spoiled them.

49 Eia na keiki a Saula, o Ionatana, o Isui a me Melekisua: a o ka inoa o kana mau kaikamahine elua, o Meraba ka inoa o ke kaikuaana, a o Mikala ka inoa o ke kaikaina.

And the sons of Saul, were Jonathan, and Jessui, and Melchisua: and the names of his two daughters, the name of the firstborn was Merob, and the name of the younger Michol.

50 A o Ahinoama ka inoa o ka wahine a Saula, ke kaikamahine a Ahimaaza; a o ka inoa o kona alihikaua, o Abenera, ke keiki a Nera, kahi makua o Saula.

And the name of Saul’s wife, was Achinoam the daughter of Achimaas; and the name of the captain of his army was Abner, the son of Ner, the cousin german of Saul.

51 A o Kisa ka makuakane o Saula: a o Nera ka makuakane o Abenera, ke keiki a Abiela.

For Cis was the father of Saul, and Ner the father of Abner, was son of Abiel.

52 A ua nui ke kaua ana i ko Pilisetia i na la a pau o Saula: a ike aku la o Saula i ke kanaka ikaika, a i ke kanaka koaka, lawe aku la kela ia ia nona.

And there was a great war against the Philistines all the days of Saul. For whomsoever Saul saw to be a valiant man, and fit for war, he took him to himself.
