< 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 their armies for battle. They were gathered at Sokoh, which belongs to Judah. They had encamped between Sokoh and Azekah, in Ephes Dammim.
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 gathered and encamped in the Valley of Elah, and drew up their battle line to meet 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 a mountain on one side, and Israel stood on a mountain on the other side with 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 strong man came out of the Philistines' camp, a man named Goliath of Gath, whose height was six cubits and a span.
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 was armed with a coat of chainmail. The coat weighed 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 armor on his legs and a javelin of bronze 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 large, with a loop of cord for throwing it like the cord on a weaver's beam. 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 shouted to the ranks of Israel, “Why have you come out to draw up for battle? Am not I a Philistine, and are you not servants of 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 defeat 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.
Again the Philistine said, “I challenge the ranks of Israel today. Give me a man so 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 what the Philistine said, they were discouraged 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 the Ephrathite of Bethlehem in Judah, whose name was Jesse. He had eight sons. Jesse was an old man in the days of Saul, very old among men.
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 followed Saul to the battle. The names of his three sons who went to the battle were Eliab the firstborn, second 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. 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 between Saul's army and his father's sheep at Bethlehem, in order to feed them.
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.
For forty days the Philistine strong man came near morning and evening to present himself for battle.
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.
Then Jesse said to his son David, “Take to your brothers an ephah of this roasted grain and these ten loaves, and carry them quickly to the camp for 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.
Also bring these ten cheeses to the captain of their thousand. See how your brothers are doing and bring back some proof that they are doing well.
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.
Your brothers are with Saul and all the men of Israel in the Valley of Elah, fighting 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 got up early in the morning and left the flock in the care of a shepherd. He took the supplies and left, as Jesse commanded him. He came to the camp as the army was going out to the battlefield shouting the war cry.
21 A ua hoouka aku ka Iseraela a me ko Pilisetia i ke kaua, o kekahi kaua ma ke alo o kekahi kaua.
Then Israel and the Philistines lined up for battle, 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 belongings with the keeper of supplies, ran to the army, 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, the strong man, the Philistine of Gath, Goliath by name, and he came out of the ranks of the Philistines, and said the same words as before, 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.
When all the men of Israel saw the man, they fled from him and were very afraid.
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 come to challenge Israel. The king will give great riches to the man who kills him, and he will give his daughter to him in marriage, and will make his father's house free from taxation 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 said to the men who stood by him, “What will be done for the man who kills this Philistine and takes away the disgrace from Israel? 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.
Then the people repeated what they had been saying and told him, “So it will be done for 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. Eliab's anger was kindled against David, and he said, “Why did you come down here? With whom have you left those few sheep in the wilderness? I know your pride, and the mischief in your heart; for you have come down here so 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 done now? Was it not just a question?”
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 in the same way. The people answered the same thing as before.
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 that David said were heard, soldiers repeated them to Saul, and he sent for David.
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.
Then David said to Saul, “Let no man's heart fail because of that Philistine; 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 only 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.
But David said to Saul, “Your servant used to keep his father's sheep. 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 chased after him and attacked him, and rescued it out of his mouth. When he rose up 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 has killed both a lion and a bear. This uncircumcised Philistine will be like one of them, since he has challenged 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, “Yahweh rescued me from the paw of the lion and from the paw of the bear. He will rescue me from the hand of this Philistine.” Then Saul said to David, “Go, and may Yahweh 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 clothed David with his armor. He put a helmet of bronze upon his head, and he clothed him with a coat of chainmail.
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 armor. But he was not able to walk, because he had not trained with them. Then David said to Saul, “I cannot go out to fight with these, for I have not trained with them.” So David put 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 five smooth stones out of the brook; he put them in his shepherd's pouch. His sling was in his hand as he approached 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 came and approached David, with his shield bearer in front of 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 despised him, for he was only a boy, and ruddy, with a handsome appearance.
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.
Then the Philistine said to David, “Am I a dog, that you come to me with sticks?,” and 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 heavens and to the beasts 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.
David replied to the Philistine, “You come to me with a sword, a spear, and a javelin. But I come to you in the name of Yahweh of hosts, 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 Yahweh will give me victory over you, and I will kill you and remove your head from your body. Today I will give the dead bodies of the Philistine army to the birds of the heavens and to the wild beasts of the earth, so 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 gathering may know that Yahweh does not give victory with sword or spear. For the battle is Yahweh'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 rose and approached David, then David ran quickly toward the enemy army to meet him.
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 from it, slung it, and hit the Philistine in the forehead. The stone sank into the Philistine's forehead, and he fell on his face to the ground.
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.
David defeated the Philistine with a sling and with a stone. He hit the Philistine and killed him. 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 and stood over the Philistine and took his sword, drew it out of the sheath, killed him, and cut off his head with it. When the Philistines saw that their strong man 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.
Then the men of Israel and of Judah rose with a shout, and chased after the Philistines as far as the valley and the gates of Ekron. The dead Philistines lay along the way to Shaaraim, all the way to Gath and 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 people of Israel returned from chasing 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 you live, king, I do not know.”
56 I aku la ke alii, E ninau aku oe i ka mea nana keia kanaka opiopio.
The king said, “Ask those who might know, whose son the boy 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.
When David returned from killing 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, young man?” David answered, “I am the son of your servant Jesse the Bethlehemite.”
