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 happened one day that Jonathan, the son of Saul, said to the young man who carried his armor, "Come, let's go over to the Philistine garrison on the other side." But he did not tell 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;

Now Saul stayed in the outskirts of Gibeah under the pomegranate tree by the threshing floor, and the people who were 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.

Now Ahijah was wearing an ephod. He was the son of Ahitub, the brother of Ichabod, the son of Phinehas, the son of Eli, the priest of Jehovah in Shiloh. And the people did not know that 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 on each side of the pass through which Jonathan intended to cross to the Philistine garrison there was a steep cliff on one side and a steep cliff on the other side. And the name of the one was Bozez, and the name of the other Seneh.

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.

The one cliff was to north in front of Michmash, and the other on the south in front of Geba.

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.

Then Jonathan said to the young man who carried his armor, "Come, let's go over to the garrison of these uncircumcised. It may be that Jehovah will work for us, for nothing can prevent Jehovah from saving by many or by a 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.

His armor bearer said to him, "Do all that your heart inclines toward. Look, I am with you, my heart is as your heart."

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

Then Jonathan said, "Look, we will pass over to the men, and we will reveal ourselves to 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 say thus to us, 'Wait until we come to you,' then we will stop where we are, and will 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 say this, 'Come up to us,' then we will go up; for Jehovah has delivered them into our hand. This shall be the sign to 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.

Both of them revealed themselves to the garrison of the Philistines: and the Philistines said, "Look, the Hebrews are coming out of the holes where they had hidden themselves."

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.

The men of the garrison answered Jonathan and his armor bearer, and said, "Come up to us, and we will show you something." Jonathan said to his armor bearer, "Come up after me; for Jehovah has delivered them into the hand 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.

Jonathan climbed up on his hands and on his feet, and his armor bearer after him. And they fell before Jonathan; and his armor bearer killed them after 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.

That first slaughter which Jonathan and his armor bearer made was about twenty men, with arrows and with weapons from flints of the field.

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 terror in the camp, and in the field, and among all the people. The garrison and even the raiders were terrified. And the earth quaked, and it became a terror of 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 in Gibeah of Benjamin saw, and look, the multitude was scattering here and there.

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.

Then Saul said to the people who were with him, "Count now, and see who is missing from us." When they had counted, look, Jonathan and his armor bearer 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 Ahijah, "Bring near the ephod," for he wore the ephod at that time before 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 it happened, while Saul was speaking to the priest, that the tumult that was in the camp of the Philistines went on and increased: and Saul said to the priest, "Withdraw your 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.

Saul and all the people who were with him were gathered together, and came to the battle: and look, every man's sword was against his fellow: a very great confusion.

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.

Now the Hebrews who were with the Philistines previously when they went up with them to the camp, they too turned 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.

Likewise all the men of Israel who had hidden themselves in the hill country of Ephraim, when they heard that the Philistines fled, even they also followed closely after them in the battle.

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

So Jehovah saved Israel that day, and the battle passed over by Beth Aven. And all the people with Saul were about ten thousand men. And the battle extended itself into every city in the hill country of Ephraim.

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 Saul committed a great blunder that day, for he had placed the people under an oath, saying, "Cursed is the man who eats any food until it is evening, and I am avenged of my enemies." So none of the people tasted food.

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

Now all the people came upon a honeycomb, and there was honey on 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 upon the honeycomb, look, its bees had left, but no man would raise 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 did not hear when his father commanded the people with the oath, so he put forth the end of the staff that was in his hand, and dipped it in the honeycomb, and raised his hand to his mouth, and his eyes brightened.

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.

Then one of the people answered, and said, "Your father directly commanded the people with an oath, saying, 'Cursed is the man who eats food this day.'" 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.

Then Jonathan said, "My father has troubled the land. Please look how my eyes have been 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 better if the people had eaten freely today of the spoil of their enemies when they found it, for the slaughter among the Philistines would have been greater."

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

They struck of the Philistines that day from Michmash to Aijalon. The people were very faint;

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 the people pounced upon the spoil, and took sheep, and cattle, and calves, and killed 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.

Then they told Saul, saying, "Look, the people are sinning against Jehovah, in that they eat meat with the blood." He said, "You have dealt treacherously. Roll a large stone to me this day."

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 say to them, 'Each one of you bring to me his ox or his sheep, and slaughter them here and eat, and do not sin against Jehovah by eating with the blood.'" So everyone of the people brought whatever he had at hand with him, and slaughtered it there.

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

Saul built an altar to Jehovah. This was the first altar that he built to Jehovah.

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.

Saul said, "Let us go down after the Philistines by night, and take spoil among them until the morning light, and let us not leave a man of them." They said, "Do whatever seems good to you." Then the priest said, "Let us draw near here to 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.

Saul asked counsel of God, "Shall I go down after the Philistines? Will you deliver them into the hand of Israel?" But he did not answer him 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, "Come here, all you leaders of the people; and investigate and see how this sin has arisen 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.

For, as Jehovah lives, who saves Israel, though it is in Jonathan my son, he shall surely die." But there was not a man among all the people who answered 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.

Then he said to all Israel, "You be on one side, and I and Jonathan my son will be on the other side." The people said to Saul, "Do what seems good to you."

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.

Therefore Saul said, "Jehovah, God of Israel, why have you not answered your servant this day? If this sin is mine or in Jonathan my son, Jehovah, God of Israel, give Urim. But if this sin is in your people Israel, give Thummim." And Jonathan and Saul were chosen, but the people were cleared.

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. Whomever Jehovah shall indicate to be taken by lot, let him die." And the people said to Saul, "This thing is not to be." And Saul prevailed over the people, and they cast lots between him and Jonathan his son. And Jonathan was selected.

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.

Then Saul said to Jonathan, "Tell me what you have done." And Jonathan told him, and said, "I certainly did taste a little honey with the end of the staff that was in my hand; and look, 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, "God do the same to me and more also if you are not put to death this day."

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.

The people said to Saul, "Shall he who has worked this great salvation in Israel die today? As Jehovah lives, there shall not one hair of his head fall to the ground; for he has worked with God this day." So the people rescued Jonathan, and he did 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.

Then Saul went up from following the Philistines; and the Philistines went to their own place.

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.

Now when Saul had taken the kingdom over Israel, he fought against all his enemies on every side, against Moab, and against the people of Ammon, and against Edom, and against Beth Rehob, and against the king of Zobah, and against the Philistines; and wherever he turned, he was victorious.

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 he did valiantly, and struck Amalek, and delivered Israel out of the hand of its plunderers.

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.

Now the sons of Saul were Jonathan, and Jishvi, and Malkishua; and the names of his two daughters were these: the name of the firstborn Merob, and the name of the younger Mikal:

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 Ahinoam the daughter of Ahimaaz. The name of the commander of his army was Abiner the son of Ner, Saul's uncle.

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

Kish was the father of Saul; and Ner the father of Abner was the 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.

There was severe war against the Philistines all the days of Saul: and when Saul saw any mighty man, or any valiant man, he took him to him.
