I Samuela 17
1 HOAKOAKOA ae la ko Pilisetia i ko lakou poe kaua e kaua mai, a ua houluuluia lakou ma Soko, no Iuda, a hoomoana iho la mawaena o Soko a me Azeka, ma Epesa-damima.
Now the Philistines gathered together their armies to battle; and they were gathered together at Socoh, which belongs to Judah, and encamped between Socoh and Azekah in Ephesdammim.
2 A akoakoa o Saula a me na kanaka o ka Iseraela, a hoomoana iho la ma ke awawa o Ela, a hooponopono i ke kaua e ku e i ko Pilisetia.
Saul and the men of Israel were gathered together, and encamped in the valley of Elah, and set the battle in array against the Philistines.
3 Ku ae la ko Pilisetia maluna o ka puu ma kekahi aoao, a ku ae la hoi ka Iseraela maluna o ka puu ma kekahi aoao: a o ke awawa iwaena o lakou.
The Philistines stood on the mountain on the one side, and Israel stood on the mountain on the other side: and there was a valley between them.
4 A puka mai la kekahi kanaka koa no ka poe o ko Pilisetia, o Golia kona inoa no Gata, o kona kiekie hookahi ia anana a me na kapuwai eha.
A champion out of the camp of the Philistines named Goliath of Gath, whose height was six cubits and a span went out.
5 A he mahiole keleawe ma kona poo, a he pale umauma unahe kona, a o ke kaumaha o ia pale umauma, elima tausani sekela keleawe.
He had a helmet of bronze on his head, and he wore a coat of mail; and the weight of the coat was five thousand shekels of bronze.
6 A he mau pale keleawe ma kona wawae, a he pale keleawe mawaena o kona mau poohiwi.
He had bronze shin armor on his legs and a bronze javelin between his shoulders.
7 A o ke au o kana ihe, ua like ia me ka laau o ka mea hana lole, a o ka pahi o kana ihe, he aono haneri sekela hao, ma ke kaupaona: a hele kekahi kanaka imua ona e hali ana i ka pale kaua.
The staff of his spear was like a weaver’s beam; and his spear’s head weighed six hundred shekels of iron. His shield bearer went before him.
8 Ku ae la ia a kahea mai la i ka poe kaua o ka Iseraela, i mai la ia lakou, No ke aha la oukou i hele mai ai e hooponopono i ke kaua? Aole anei wau he Pilisetia, a o oukou he poe kauwa na Saula? e wae oukou i kekahi kanaka no oukou, a e iho mai ia io'u nei.
He stood and cried to the armies of Israel, and said to them, “Why have you come out to set your battle in array? Am I not a Philistine, and you servants to Saul? Choose a man for yourselves, and let him come down to me.
9 Ina e hiki ia ia ke kaua pu me au, a make au ia ia, alaila e lilo makou i kauwa na oukou; aka, i lanakila au maluna ona, a make ia ia'u, alaila e lilo oukou i kauwa na makou, a e hookauwa mai oukou na makou.
If he is able to fight with me and kill me, then will we be your servants; but if I prevail against him and kill him, then you will be our servants and serve us.”
10 I mai la ua kanaka la no ko Pilisetia, Ke aa aku nei au i ka poe kaua o ka Iseraela i keia la; e ho mai oukou i kekahi kanaka i hoa kaua no'u.
The Philistine said, “I defy the armies of Israel today! Give me a man, that we may fight together!”
11 A lohe ae la o Saula a me ka Iseraela a pau i ka olelo a ke kanaka no ko Pilisetia, weliweli lakou, a makau loa iho la.
When Saul and all Israel heard those words of the Philistine, they were dismayed and greatly afraid.
12 A o Davida, oia ke keiki a ua kanaka la no Eperata no Betelehema o Iuda, o Iese kona inoa; a ewalu ana keiki: a i ka wa ia Saula, ua elemakule ia iwaena o kanaka.
Now David was the son of that Ephrathite of Bethlehem Judah, whose name was Jesse; and he had eight sons. The man was an elderly old man in the days of Saul.
13 A o na keiki mua ekolu a Iese hele lakou mamuli o Saula i ke kaua: a o ka inoa o na keiki ekolu i hele i ke kaua, o Eliaba ka hanau mua, a mahope mai ona, o Abinadaba, a o Sama ke kolu.
The three oldest sons of Jesse had gone after Saul to the battle; and the names of his three sons who went to the battle were Eliab the firstborn, and next to him Abinadab, and the third Shammah.
14 A o Davida ka pokii: a hahai aku la na keiki mua ekolu mahope o Saula.
David was the youngest; and the three oldest followed Saul.
15 Aka, o Davida, hele aku la ia a hoi hou ae mai o Saula mai e malama i na hipa o kona makuakane ma Betelehema.
Now David went back and forth from Saul to feed his father’s sheep at Bethlehem.
16 A hookokoke mai no ua kanaka Pilisetia la i kakahiaka a me ke ahiahi, a hoike mai ia ia iho i na la he kanaha.
The Philistine came near morning and evening, and presented himself forty days.
17 I aku la o Iese ia Davida i kana keiki, Ano e lawe aku oe na kou mau hoahanau i hookahi epa o keia ai i pulehuia, a i keia mau pai palaoa he umi, a e holo i kou mau hoahanau ma kahi i hoomoana'i i ke kaua.
Jesse said to David his son, “Now take for your brothers an ephah of this parched grain and these ten loaves, and carry them quickly to the camp to your brothers;
18 A e lawe oe i keia mau pai waiupaa he umi na ka lunatausani, a e ike oe i ka pono o kou mau hoahanau, a e lawe mai i ko lakou mea hooiaio.
and bring these ten cheeses to the captain of their thousand; and see how your brothers are doing, and bring back news.”
19 A o Saula, o lakou, a me na kanaka a pau o ka Iseraela, aia no ma ke awawa o Ela, e kaua ana i ko Pilisetia.
Now Saul, and they, and all the men of Israel were in the valley of Elah, fighting with the Philistines.
20 Ala ae la o Davida i kakahiaka nui, a waiho i na hipa me ke kahu, a lawe ae la a hele aku e like me ka Iese i kauoha mai ai ia ia; a hiki aku ia ma kahi o na kaa, a e hele ana ka poe koa i ke kaua, a uwo lakou i ke kaua.
David rose up early in the morning and left the sheep with a keeper, and took the provisions and went, as Jesse had commanded him. He came to the place of the wagons as the army which was going out to the fight shouted for the battle.
21 A ua hoouka aku ka Iseraela a me ko Pilisetia i ke kaua, o kekahi kaua ma ke alo o kekahi kaua.
Israel and the Philistines put the battle in array, army against army.
22 A waiho aku la o Davida i na mea mai ona aku la ma ka lima o ka mea malama ia mea, a holo aku la i ke kaua, a hele e ninau i ka pono o kona mau hoahanau.
David left his baggage in the hand of the keeper of the baggage and ran to the army, and came and greeted his brothers.
23 Ia ia i kamailio ai me lakou, aia hoi, pii mai la ua kanaka koa la, no ko Pilisetia, o Golia kona inoa no Gata, mai ka poe kaua o ko Pilisetia mai, a olelo mai e like me kela olelo: a lohe o Davida.
As he talked with them, behold, the champion, the Philistine of Gath, Goliath by name, came up out of the ranks of the Philistines, and said the same words; and David heard them.
24 A o na kanaka a pau o ka Iseraela, a ike aku la lakou ia ia, holo lakou mai kona maka aku, a makau nui iho la.
All the men of Israel, when they saw the man, fled from him and were terrified.
25 I mai la na kanaka o ka Iseraela, Ua ike anei oukou ia kanaka i pii mai ai? no ka mea, ua pii mai ia e aa i ka Iseraela: a o ke kanaka e pepehi ia ia, e hoolako mai ke alii ia ia i ka waiwai nui, a e haawi mai hoi i kana kaikamahine nana, a e hookaawale ae ia i ka hale o kona makuakane iwaena o ka Iseraela, aole e hookupu.
The men of Israel said, “Have you seen this man who has come up? He has surely come up to defy Israel. The king will give great riches to the man who kills him, and will give him his daughter, and will make his father’s house tax-free in Israel.”
26 Olelo aku la o Davida i na kanaka e ku pu ana me ia, i aku la, Heaha ka mea e hanaia mai ai i ke kanaka, nana e pepehi keia kanaka Pilisetia, a e lawe aku i ka hoino mai ka Iseraela aku? owai la keia Pilisetia i okipoepoe ole ia, i aa mai ai ia i ka poe kaua o ke Akua ola?
David spoke to the men who stood by him, saying, “What shall be done to the man who kills this Philistine and takes away the reproach from Israel? For who is this uncircumcised Philistine, that he should defy the armies of the living God?”
27 Olelo mai la na kanaka ia ia peneia, i mai la, Pela no e hanaia mai ai i ke kanaka, nana ia e pepehi.
The people answered him in this way, saying, “So shall it be done to the man who kills him.”
28 A lohe ae la o Eliaba kona kaikuaana i kana olelo ana'ku i na kanaka; a ua hoaia ka inaina o Eliaba ia Davida, i aku la, No ke aha la oe i hele mai ia nei? me wai la oe i waiho ai i hela poe hipa uuku ma ka waonahele? Ua ike au i kou haaheo, a me ka hewa o kou naau; no ka mea, ua hele mai oe e ike i ke kaua.
Eliab his oldest brother heard when he spoke to the men; and Eliab’s anger burned against David, and he said, “Why have you come down? With whom have you left those few sheep in the wilderness? I know your pride and the evil of your heart; for you have come down that you might see the battle.”
29 I aku la o Davida, Heaha ka'u i hana'i ano? Aole anei he kumu?
David said, “What have I now done? Is there not a cause?”
30 Huli ae la ia mai ona aku la i kekahi e ae, a olelo aku la e like me kela olelo; a i mai la na kanaka e like me mamua.
He turned away from him toward another, and spoke like that again; and the people answered him again the same way.
31 A loheia na olelo a Davida i olelo ai, hai aku la lakou imua o Saula; a kii aku la oia ia ia.
When the words were heard which David spoke, they rehearsed them before Saul; and he sent for him.
32 I aku la o Davida ia Saula, Mai hookaumahaia ka naau o kekahi kanaka nona; e hele no kau kauwa e kaua pu me ua kanaka Pilisetia la.
David said to Saul, “Let no man’s heart fail because of him. Your servant will go and fight with this Philistine.”
33 I mai la o Saula ia Davida, Aole e hiki ia oe ke hele ku e i keia kanaka Pilisetia, e kaua pu me ia: no ka mea, he opiopio oe, aka oia, he kanaka koa ia mai kona wa opiopio mai.
Saul said to David, “You are not able to go against this Philistine to fight with him; for you are but a youth, and he a man of war from his youth.”
34 I aku la o Davida ia Saula, Ua malama kau kauwa i na hipa o kona makuakane, a hele mai la ka liona, a me ka bea, a lawe aku i kekahi keikihipa no ka poe hipa.
David said to Saul, “Your servant was keeping his father’s sheep; and when a lion or a bear came and took a lamb out of the flock,
35 Hahai aku la au ia ia, a pepehi ia ia, a hoopakele ia mea mai kona waha mai; a i kona ku e mai ia'u, lalau aku la au i kona umiumi, a pepehi iho la ia ia, a make ia ia'u.
I went out after him, struck him, and rescued it out of his mouth. When he arose against me, I caught him by his beard, struck him, and killed him.
36 A o ka liona a me ka bea, ua make laua a elua i kau kauwa: a o keia Pilisetia okipoepoe ole ia, e like auanei ia me kekahi o laua, no kona aa ana i ka poe kaua o ke Akua ola.
Your servant struck both the lion and the bear. This uncircumcised Philistine shall be as one of them, since he has defied the armies of the living God.”
37 I aku la hoi o Davida, O Iehova, ka mea nana au i hoopakele mai ka wawae aku o ka liona, a mai ka wawae aku o ka bea, nana no au e hoopakele mai ka lima aku o keia kanaka Pilisetia. I mai la o Saula ia Davida, O hele, o Iehova pu kekahi me oe.
David said, “The LORD, who delivered me out of the paw of the lion and out of the paw of the bear, will deliver me out of the hand of this Philistine.” Saul said to David, “Go! The LORD will be with you.”
38 Hoaahu aku la o Saula ia Davida i kona aahu kaua, a kau aku la i ka mahiole keleawe ma kona poo, a hookomo ia ia i ka puliki koa.
Saul dressed David with his clothing. He put a helmet of bronze on his head, and he clad him with a coat of mail.
39 Kaei iho la o Davida i kana pahikaua maluna o na mea kaua, a manao iho la e hele; aka, no ka hoao ole ia, i aku la o Davida ia Saula, Aole au e hiki ke hele me keia mau mea; no ka mea, aole au i hoao. Kala ae la o Davida ia mau mea mai ona aku la.
David strapped his sword on his clothing and he tried to move, for he had not tested it. David said to Saul, “I cannot go with these, for I have not tested them.” Then David took them off.
40 Lawe aku la ia i kona kookoo ma kona lima, ohi iho la ia i na ala elima no ke kahawai, a hahao iloko o ke kieko kahuhipa nona, a iloko o ka aa; a ma kona lima kana maa: a hookokoke aku la ia i ke kanaka Pilisetia.
He took his staff in his hand, and chose for himself five smooth stones out of the brook, and put them in the pouch of his shepherd’s bag which he had. His sling was in his hand; and he came near to the Philistine.
41 A hele mai ke kanaka Pilisetia, a hookokoke mai ia Davida, a imua ona ke kanaka nana i hali ka palekaua.
The Philistine walked and came near to David; and the man who bore the shield went before him.
42 Nana ae la ke kanaka Pilisetia, a ike mai la ia Davida, hoowahawaha mai la ia ia; no ka mea, he opiopio oia, a he ehu, a maikai ke nana aku.
When the Philistine looked around and saw David, he disdained him; for he was but a youth, and ruddy, and had a good looking face.
43 I mai la ke kanaka Pilisetia ia Davida, He ilio anei wau, i hele mai oe io'u nei me ke kookoo? A hoino mai la ke kanaka Pilisetia ia Davida ma kona mau akua.
The Philistine said to David, “Am I a dog, that you come to me with sticks?” The Philistine cursed David by his gods.
44 I mai la ka Pilisetia ia Davida, E hele mai io'u nei, a e haawi aku au i kou io i na manu o ka lewa, a me na holoholona o ke kula.
The Philistine said to David, “Come to me, and I will give your flesh to the birds of the sky and to the animals of the field.”
45 I aku la o Davida i ka Pilisetia, Ke hele mai la oe io'u nei me ka pahikaua, a me ka ihe, a me ka palekaua: aka owau, ke hele aku nei au iou la ma ka inoa o Iehova o na kaua, ke Akua o ko Iseraela poe kaua au i aa mai ai.
Then David said to the Philistine, “You come to me with a sword, with a spear, and with a javelin; but I come to you in the name of the LORD of Armies, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defied.
46 I keia la, e haawi mai o Iehova ia oe iloko o kuu lima, a e pepehi aku au ia oe, a e lawe aku au i kou poo mai ou aku la; a e haawi aku au i keia la i na kupapau o ko Pilisetia poe kaua na na manu o ka lewa, a na na holoholona o ka honua; i ike ai ko ka honua a pau, he Akua no iloko o ka Iseraela.
Today, the LORD will deliver you into my hand. I will strike you and take your head from off you. I will give the dead bodies of the army of the Philistines today to the birds of the sky and to the wild animals of the earth, that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel,
47 A e ike keia ahakanaka a pau, aole e hoola mai o Iehova me ka pahikaua, a me ka ihe: no ka mea, no Iehova ke kaua, a e haawi mai oia ia oe iloko o ko makou lima.
and that all this assembly may know that the LORD does not save with sword and spear; for the battle is the LORD’s, and he will give you into our hand.”
48 A i ka wa i ku ae ke kanaka Pilisetia, a hele, a hookokoke e halawai me Davida, lalelale iho la o Davida, a holo aku la i ka poe kaua e halawai me ua kanaka Pilisetia la.
When the Philistine arose, and walked and came near to meet David, David hurried and ran toward the army to meet the Philistine.
49 A hou iho la o Davida i kona lima iloko o ka aa, a lawe mai i kekahi ala, a maa aku la, a pa aku la i ka lae o ka Pilisetia, a komo iho la ka ala iloko o kona lae, haule iho la ia ma ka honua ilalo ke alo.
David put his hand in his bag, took a stone and slung it, and struck the Philistine in his forehead. The stone sank into his forehead, and he fell on his face to the earth.
50 A lanakila o Davida maluna o ka Pilisetia me ka maa a me ka ala, a pepehi aku la i ka Pilisetia, a make ia; aole nae he pahikaua ma ka lima o Davida.
So David prevailed over the Philistine with a sling and with a stone, and struck the Philistine and killed him; but there was no sword in David’s hand.
51 A holo aku la o Davida, a ku maluna o ke kanaka Pilisetia, a lalau iho i kana pahikaua, a unuhi ae mai loko mai o kona wahi, a pepehi iho la, a oki aku la i kona poo me ia. A ike ae la ko Pilisetia poe, ua make ko lakou kanaka koa, auhee lakou.
Then David ran, stood over the Philistine, took his sword, drew it out of its sheath, killed him, and cut off his head with it. When the Philistines saw that their champion was dead, they fled.
52 Ku ae la na kanaka o ka Iseraela a me ka Iuda, hooho aku la, a alualu i ko Pilisetia, a hiki ma ke awawa, a ma na ipuka o Ekerona: a haule iho la na mea eha o na Pilisetia ma ke ala o Saaraima, a hiki i Gata a me Ekerona.
The men of Israel and of Judah arose and shouted, and pursued the Philistines as far as Gai and to the gates of Ekron. The wounded of the Philistines fell down by the way to Shaaraim, even to Gath and to Ekron.
53 A hoi aku la na mamo a Iseraela mai ke alualu ana i ko Pilisetia, a hao ae la i na halelewa o lakou.
The children of Israel returned from chasing after the Philistines, and they plundered their camp.
54 Lawe o Davida i ke poo o ke kanaka Pilisetia, a hali aku la ia mea ma Ierusalema, a waiho aku la ia i kana mea kaua ma kona halelewa.
David took the head of the Philistine and brought it to Jerusalem, but he put his armor in his tent.
55 A ike aku la o Saula i ko Davida hele ana e halawai me ke kanaka Pilisetia, ninau aku la oia ia Abenera, i ka luna o ke kaua, E Abenera e, he keiki nawai keia kanaka opiopio? I mai la o Abenera, Ma ke ola o kou uhane, e ke alii, aole au i ike.
When Saul saw David go out against the Philistine, he said to Abner, the captain of the army, “Abner, whose son is this youth?” Abner said, “As your soul lives, O king, I cannot tell.”
56 I aku la ke alii, E ninau aku oe i ka mea nana keia kanaka opiopio.
The king said, “Inquire whose son the young man is!”
57 A i ko Davida hoi ana, mai ka pepehi ana i ke kanaka no ko Pilisetia, lawe aku la o Abenera ia ia, a alakai aku la ia ia imua o Saula, me ke poo o ke kanaka Pilisetia ma kona lima.
As David returned from the slaughter of the Philistine, Abner took him and brought him before Saul with the head of the Philistine in his hand.
58 Ninau aku la o Saula, E ke kanaka opiopio, he keiki oe nawai? I mai la o Davida, He keiki au na kau kauwa, na Iese no Betelehema.
Saul said to him, “Whose son are you, you young man?” David answered, “I am the son of your servant Jesse the Bethlehemite.”
