I Samuela 15
1 OLELO aku la o Samuela ia Saula, Na Iehova wau i hoouna mai e poni ia oe i alii maluna o kona poe kanaka, o ka Iseraela: ano hoi, e hoolohe oe i ka leo o na olelo a Iehova.
And Samuel said to Saul: The Lord sent me to anoint thee king over his People Israel: now therefore hearken thou unto the voice of the Lord:
2 Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova o ke kaua, peneia, Ke hoomanao nei au i ka mea a ka Amaleka i hana mai ai i ka Iseraela, i kona ku e mai ia ia ma ke ala, i ka manawa i hele mai ai ia mai Aigupita mai.
Thus saith the Lord of hosts: I have reckoned up all that Amalec hath done to Israel: I how he opposed them in the way when they came up out of Egypt.
3 Ano hoi e hele oe, a e luku aku i ka Ameleka, a e luku aku i ko lakou mea a pau loa, mai minamina ia lakou; aka, e luku aku i ke kane a me ka wahine, i ke keiki a me ka mea omo waiu, i ka bipi a me ka hipa, i ke kamelo a me ka hoki.
Now therefore go, and smite Amalec, and utterly destroy all that he hath: spare him not, nor covet any thing that is his: but slay both man and woman, child and suckling, ox and sheep, camel and ass.
4 Houluulu ae la o Saula i na kanaka, a helu aku la ia lakou ma Telaima, elua haneri tausani kanaka koa hele wawae, a he umi tausani kanaka o ka Iuda.
So Saul commanded the people, and numbered them as lambs: two hundred thousand footmen, and ten thousand of the men of Juda.
5 A hele aku la o Saula i ke kulanakauhale o ka Amaleka, a kaua aku la ma ke awawa.
And when Saul was come to the city of Amalec, he laid ambushes in the torrent.
6 Olelo aku la o Saula i ka poe Keni, E hele aku, e haalele, e iho ilalo mai waena mai o ka Amaleka, o luku aku auanei au ia oukou me lakou: no ka mea, ua lokomaikai oukou i na mamo a Iseraela, ia lakou i hele mai, mai Aigupita mai. Hele aku la ka poe Keni mailoko aku o ka Amaleka.
And Saul said to the Cinite: Go, depart and get ye down from Amalec: lest I destroy thee with him. For thou hast shewn kindness to all the children of Israel, when they came up out of Egypt. And the Cinite departed from the midst of Amalec.
7 Luku aku la o Saula i ka Amaleka ma Havila, a hiki aku i Sura e ku pono ana i Aigupita.
And Saul smote Amalec from Hevila, until thou comest to Sur, which is over against Egypt.
8 A lawe ola aku la oia ia Agaga ke alii o ka Amaleka, a luku aku la i na kanaka a pau i ka maka o ka pahikaua.
And he took Agag the king of Amalec alive: but all the common people he slew with the edge of the sword.
9 Aka, o Saula a me na kanaka i hoola aku la ia Agaga, a i na mea maikai o ka poe hipa, a o ka poe bipi, a i na mea maikai iki iho, a i na keiki hipa, a i na mea maikai a pau, aole i luku aku ia lakou: aka, o na mea i hoowahawahaia, a me na mea ino, ua pau loa ia mea i ka lukuia e lakou.
And Saul and the people spared Agag and the best of the flocks of sheep and of the herds, and the garments and the rams, and all that was beautiful, and would not destroy them: but every thing that was vile and good for nothing, that they destroyed.
10 Alaila hiki mai ka olelo a Iehova ia Samuela, i mai la,
And the word of the Lord came to Samuel, saying:
11 Ke mihi nei au i kuu hoonoho ana ia Saula i alii: no ka mea, ua huli ae ia mai ka hahai ana ia'u, aole ia i hooko i ka'u mau kauoha. Huhu iho la o Samuela; a kahea aku la ia ia Iehova ia po a pau.
It repenteth me that I have made Saul king: for he hath forsaken me, and hath not executed my commandments. And Samuel was grieved, and he cried unto the Lord all night.
12 I ka wanaao, ala ae la o Samuela e halawai me Saula i kakahiaka, ua haiia mai ia Samuela, i mai la, Ua hiki mai o Saula ma Karemela, a ua kukulu i mea hoomanao nona, a ua huli ae, a ua hele aku, a ua iho ilalo i Gilegala.
And when Samuel rose early, to go to Saul in the morning, it was told Samuel, that Saul was come to Carmel, and had erected for himself a triumphant arch, and returning had passed on, and gone down to Galgal. And Samuel came to Saul, and Saul was offering a holocaust to the Lord out of the choicest of the spoils which he had brought from Amalec.
13 A hele aku la o Samuela io Saula la; i mai la o Saula ia ia, Pomaikai oe ia Iehova; ua hooko no wau i ka olelo a Iehova.
And when Samuel was come to Saul, Saul said to him: Blessed be thou of the Lord, I have fulfilled the word of the Lord.
14 I aku la o Samuela, No ke aha keia alala ana o na hipa ma kuu pepeiao, a me ka uwo ana o na bipi a'u e lohe nei?
And Samuel said: What meaneth then this bleating of the flocks, which soundeth in my ears, and the lowing of the herds, which I hear?
15 I mai la o Saula, Ua lawe mai lakou ia mau mea mai ka Amaleka mai: no ka mea, ua hoola na kanaka i na mea maikai o ka poe hipa, a me na bipi, i mea e kaumaha aku ai ia Iehova, i kou Akua; a o na mea e ae, ua pau ia makou i ka lukuia.
And Saul said: They have brought them from Amalec: for the people spared the best of the sheep and of the herds that they might be sacrificed to the Lord thy God, but the rest we have slain.
16 Olelo aku la o Samuela ia Saula, Alia, a e hai aku au ia oe i ka mea a Iehova i olelo mai ai ia'u i neia po. I mai la kela ia ia, E hai mai.
And Samuel said to Saul: Suffer me, and I will tell thee what the Lord hath said to me this night. And he said to him: Speak.
17 I aku la o Samuela, I ka wa i uuku ai oe i kou maka, aole anei i lilo oe i luna no na ohana o ka Iseraela, a i poni mai hoi o Iehova ia oe i alii maluna o ka Iseraela?
And Samuel said: When thou wast a little one in thy own eyes, wast thou not made the head of the tribes of Israel? And the Lord anointed thee to be king over Israel.
18 Hoouna aku la o Iehova ia oe ma ke ala, i aku la, E hele, a e luku loa aku i ka poe hewa o ka Amaleka, a e kaua aku ia lakou, a pau lakou i ka lukuia.
And the Lord sent thee on the way, and said: Go, and kill the sinners of Amalec, and thou shalt fight against them until thou hast utterly destroyed them.
19 No ke aha la oe i hoolohe ole ai i ka leo o Iehova, a ua lawe hewa oe i ka waiwai pio, a ua hana hewa oe imua o Iehova.
Why then didst thou not hearken to the voice of the Lord: but hast turned to the prey, and hast done evil in the eyes of the Lord.
20 I mai la o Saula ia Samuela, Ua hoolohe no wau i ka leo o Iehova, a ua hele au ma ke ala a Iehova i hoouna aku ai ia'u, a ua lawe mai au ia Agaga, i ke alii o ka Amaleka, a ua luku loa aku au i ka Amaleka.
And Saul said to Samuel: Yea I have hearkened to the voice of the Lord, and have walked in the way by which the Lord sent me, and have brought Agag the king of Amalec, and Amalec I have slain.
21 Aka, ua lawe na kanaka i ka waiwai pio, i ka hipa, a me ka bipi, i na mea maikai o na mea laa, i mea e kaumaha aku ai ia Iehova i kou Akua ma Gilegala.
But the people took of the spoils sheep and oxen, as the firstfruits of those things that were slain, to offer sacrifice to the Lord their God in Galgal.
22 I aku la o Samuela, Ua like anei ka oluolu o Iehova i na mohaikuni, a i na alana, me ka hoolohe ana i ka leo o Iehova? Aia hoi, ua oi aku ka pono o ka hoolohe ana, mamua o ka mohai, a o ka maliu ana, mamua o ka momona o na hipakane.
And Samuel said: Doth the Lord desire holocausts and victims, and not rather that the voice of the Lord should be obeyed? For obedience is better than sacrifices: and to hearken rather than to offer the fat of rams.
23 No ka mea, o ke kipi, ua like ia me ka hewa o ka anaana, a o ka hoopaakiki, me ka lapuwale o ka hoomanakii: no kou haalele ana i ka olelo a Iehova, ua haalele mai ia ia oe, aole oe ke alii.
Because it is like the sin of witchcraft, to rebel: and like the crime of idolatry, to refuse to obey. Forasmuch therefore as thou hast rejected the word of the Lord, the Lord hath also rejected thee from being king.
24 I mai la o Saula ia Samuela, Ua hewa au; no ka mea, ua malama ole au i ke kauoha a Iehova, a me kau mau olelo, no kuu makau ana i na kanaka, a ua hoolohe au i ko lakou leo.
And Saul said to Samuel: I have sinned because I have transgressed the commandment of the Lord, and thy words, fearing the people, and obeying their voice.
25 Ano hoi, ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e kala mai oe i kuu hewa, a e huli ae me au, a e hoomana aku ia Iehova.
But now bear, I beseech thee, my sin, and return with me, that I may adore the Lord.
26 I aku la o Samuela ia Saula, Aole au e huli ae me oe; no ka mea, ua haalele oe i ke kauoha a Iehova, a ua haalele mai o Iehova ia oe, aole oe ke alii maluna o ka Iseraela.
And Samuel said to Saul: I will not return with thee, because thou hast rejected the word of the Lord, and the Lord hath rejected thee from being king over Israel.
27 A i ka huli ana ae o Samuela e hele aku, lalau mai la kela i ka lepa o kona aahu, a nahae iho la ia.
And Samuel turned about to go away: but he laid hold upon the skirt of his mantle, and it rent.
28 I aku la o Samuela ia ia, Ua hoonahae mai o Iehova i ke aupuni mai ou aku la i keia la, a ua haawi aku ia mea i kekahi hoalauna ou, ua oi aku kona pono i kou.
And Samuel said to him: The Lord hath rent the kingdom of Israel from thee this day, and hath given it to thy neighbour who is better than thee.
29 Aole no hoi e hoopunipuni ka Oiaio o ka Iseraela, aole hoi ia e mihi; no ka mea, aole no ia he kanaka, i mihi ai oia.
But the triumpher in Israel will riot spare, and will not be moved to repentance: for he is not a mail that he should repent.
30 I mai la ia, Ua hewa au; ke noi aku nei au ia oe, ano e hoomaikai mai oe ia'u imua o na lunakahiko o kuu poe kanaka, a imua hoi o ka Iseraela, a e huli hou ae me au, i hoomana aku ai au ia Iehova i kou Akua.
Then he said: I have sinned: yet honour me now before the ancients of my people, and before Israel, and return with me, that I may adore the Lord thy God.
31 A huli hou ae la o Samuela mahope o Saula, a hoomana aku la o Saula ia Iehova.
So Samuel turned again after Saul: and Saul adored the Lord.
32 Alaila, i aku la o Samuela, E kaina mai o Agaga, ke alii o ka Amaleka i o'u nei: a hele olioli mai o Agaga, i mai la, He oiaio, ua hala aku la ka awaawa o ka make.
And Samuel said: Bring hitherto me Agag the king of Amalec. And Agag was presented to him very fat, and trembling. And Agag said: Doth bitter death separate in this manner?
33 I aku la o Samuela, E like me kau pahikaua i hoonele ai i na wahine i keiki ole, pela hoi e hooneleia'i kou makuwahine i ke keiki ole iwaena o na wahine. Oki liilii iho la o Samuela ia Agaga imua o Iehova ma Gilegala.
And Samuel said: As thy sword hath made women childless, so shall thy mother be childless among women. And Samuel hewed him in pieces before the Lord in Galgal.
34 A hele aku la o Samuela ma Rama; a pii ae la o Saula i kona hale ma Gibea o Saula.
And Samuel departed to Ramatha: but Saul went up to his house in Gabaa.
35 Aole hele hou o Samuela e ike ia Saula, a hiki i kona la e make ai; aka, uwe iho la o Samuela ia Saula: a mihi iho la o Iehova i kona hooalii ana ia Saula maluna o ka Iseraela.
And Samuel saw Saul no more till the day of his death: nevertheless Samuel mourned for Saul, because the Lord repented that he had made him king over Israel.
