I Samuela 18
1 A PAU ae la kana kamailio pu ana me Saula, ua hui pu ia ka naau o Ionatana me ka naau o Davida, aloha aku la o Ionatana ia ia e like me kona uhane iho.
And it came to pass, when he had ended speaking to Saul, that the soul of Jonathan was knit with the soul of David, and Jonathan loved him as his own soul.
2 Lawe aku la o Saula ia ia ia la, aole ia i ae aku ia ia e hoi hou i ka hale o kona makuakane.
And Saul took him that day, and would not let him return to his father's house.
3 A hoopaa iho la o Ionatana a me Davida i kuikahi, no ka mea, aloha aku la oia ia ia e like me kona uhane iho.
And Jonathan and David made a covenant, because he loved him as his own soul.
4 Wehe ae la o Ionatana i kona kapa aahu maluna ona, a haawi aku la ia Davida, a me kona lole komo, a me kana pahikaua, a i kana kakaka, a me kona kaei.
And Jonathan stripped himself of the robe that was upon him, and gave it to David, and his dress, even to his sword, and to his bow, and to his girdle.
5 A hele aku la o Davida i na wahi a pau a Saula i hoouna aku ai ia ia, ua hana naauao ia: a hoonoho aku la o Saula ia ia maluna o na kanaka kaua; a ua maikai oia i na maka o na kanaka a pau, a i na maka hoi o ka poe kauwa a Saula.
And David went forth; whithersoever Saul sent him he prospered; and Saul set him over the men of war, and he was accepted in the sight of all the people, and also in the sight of Saul's servants.
6 A i ko lakou hele ana mai, i ka wa a Davida i hoi mai ai i ka pepehi ana i ke kanaka Pilisetia, hele mai la na wahine mai na kulanakauhale a pau o ka Iseraela mai, e mele ana, a e haa ana, e halawai me Saula ke alii, me na kuolokani, a me ka olioli, a me na mea kani.
And it came to pass as they came, when David returned from the slaughter of the Philistine, that the women came out of all the cities of Israel, singing and dancing, to meet king Saul, with tambours, with joy, and with triangles.
7 Olelo ae la na wahine e haa ana, i aku la, O na tausani ka Saula i pepehi ai, a he umi tausani ka Davida.
And the women answered [one another] as they played, and said, Saul hath smitten his thousands, And David his ten thousands.
8 Huhu nui iho la o Saula, a ua hewa ia olelo i kona manao; i iho la, Ua haawi lakou na Davida he umi tausani, a ua haawi lakou na'u he mau tausani: o ka lilo o ke aupuni nona ka mea i koe.
And Saul was very wroth, and that saying was evil in his sight; and he said, They have ascribed to David ten thousands, but to me they have ascribed the thousands; and [what] is there more for him but the kingdom?
9 Awihi ae la ko Saula maka ia Davida mai ia manawa mai.
And Saul eyed David from that day and forward.
10 Ia la iho, hiki mai ka uhane ino maluna o Saula na ke Akua mai, a wanana aku la ia iloko o ka hale; a hookani iho la o Davida me kona lima, e like me na manawa mamua: a he ihe ma ka lima o Saula.
And it came to pass the next day that an evil spirit from God came upon Saul, and he prophesied in the midst of the house, but David played with his hand, as on other days; and the spear was in Saul's hand.
11 Hou aku la o Saula i ka ihe, i iho la, E pepehi aku au ia Davida a i ka paia. Elua ko Davida alo ana mai ona aku la.
And Saul cast the spear, and thought, I will smite David and the wall. But David turned away from him twice.
12 Makau ae la o Saula ia Davida, no ka mea, me ia no o Iehova, a ua haalele aku la ia Saula.
And Saul was afraid of David, because Jehovah was with him, and had departed from Saul.
13 No ia mea, hoonoho aku la o Saula ia ia mai ona aku la, a hoolilo ia ia i lunatausani nona; a hele aku la ia a hoi mai imua o na kanaka.
And Saul removed him from him, and made him his captain over a thousand; and he went out and came in before the people.
14 Ua naauao o Davida ma kona aoao a pau; a me ia no o Iehova.
And David prospered in all his ways; and Jehovah was with him.
15 A ike aku la o Saula i kona naauao loa, makau no oia ia ia.
And Saul saw that he prospered well, and he stood in awe of him.
16 Aka, o ka Iseraela a pau a me ka Iuda, aloha lakou ia Davida, no ka mea, hele aku no ia a hoi mai imua o lakou.
But all Israel and Judah loved David, for he went out and came in before them.
17 Olelo aku la o Saula ia Davida, Aia hoi, o ka'u kaikamahine mua, o Meraba, oia ka'u e haawi aku i wahine nau, ke ikaika oe no'u, a ke kaua aku i na kaua o Iehova: i iho la o Saula, Aole maluna ona ko'u lima iho, aka, maluna ona ka lima o ko Pilisetia.
And Saul said to David, Behold my eldest daughter Merab, her will I give thee to wife; only be thou valiant for me, and fight Jehovah's battles. But Saul thought, My hand shall not be upon him, but the hand of the Philistines shall be upon him.
18 I aku la o Davida ia Saula, Owai la owau? a heaha hoi ko'u ola, a me ko ka hale o ko'u makuakane iwaena o ka Iseraela, i lilo ai au i hunonakane na ke alii.
And David said to Saul, Who am I? and what is my life, [or] my father's family in Israel, that I should be son-in-law to the king?
19 A i ka manawa e pono ai ke haawiia'ku ai o Meraba, ke kaikamahine a Saula, na Davida, ua haawiia oia na Aderiela, no Mehola, i wahine nana.
And it came to pass at the time when Merab Saul's daughter should have been given to David, that she was given to Adriel the Meholathite as wife.
20 A o Mikala, ke kaikamahine a Saula, aloha no oia ia Davida: a hai aku la lakou ia Saula, a ua pono ia mea i kona maka.
And Michal Saul's daughter loved David; and they told Saul, and the thing was right in his sight.
21 I aku la o Saula, E haawi aku au ia ia nana, i lilo ai ia i mea hihia nona, a i ku e mai ai ka lima o ko Pilisetia ia ia. I aku la o Saula ia Davida, E lilo mai oe i keia la i hunonakane na'u ma kekahi o laua.
And Saul said, I will give him her, that she may be a snare to him, and that the hand of the Philistines may be upon him. And Saul said to David, Thou shalt this day be my son-in-law a second time.
22 Kauoha aku la o Saula i kana poe kauwa, E kamailio malu oukou me Davida, e i aku, Aia hoi, ua oluolu ke alii ia oe, a ua aloha hoi kana poe kauwa a pau ia oe; ano hoi, e hooliloia oe i hunonakane na ke alii.
And Saul commanded his servants, Speak with David secretly, saying, Behold, the king has delight in thee, and all his servants love thee: now therefore be the king's son-in-law.
23 Hai aku la na kauwa a Saula i keia mau olelo ma ka pepeiao o Davida. I mai la o Davida, He mea uuku anei i ko oukou maka, ke lilo i hunonakane na ke alii, he kanaka ilihune wau, a he mea i manao ole ia?
And Saul's servants spoke those words in the ears of David. And David said, Is it a light thing in your eyes to be the king's son-in-law, seeing that I am a poor man, and lightly esteemed?
24 Hai aku la na kauwa a Saula ia ia, i aku la, Me keia mau olelo i olelo mai ai o Davida.
And the servants of Saul told him, saying, On this manner did David speak.
25 I aku la o Saula, Peneia oukou e olelo aku ai ia Davida, Aole makemake ke alii i ka uku, aka, i hookahi haneri omaka o na Pilisetia, i mea e hoopai aku ai i na enemi o ke alii. Manao iho la o Saula e haule ana o Davida ma ka lima o na Pilisetia.
And Saul said, Thus shall ye say to David: The king does not desire any dowry, but a hundred foreskins of the Philistines, to be avenged of the king's enemies. But Saul thought to make David fall by the hand of the Philistines.
26 A hai aku la na kauwa ana i keia mau olelo ia Davida, ua pono ia mea i na maka o Davida i ka lilo i hunonakane na ke alii; aole hoi i pau na la.
And his servants told David these words; and the thing was right in David's sight to be the king's son-in-law. And the days were not expired,
27 Ku ae la o Davida, a hele aku la, oia me kona poe kanaka, a pepehi aku la i elua haneri kanaka o na Pilisetia; a lawe mai o Davida i ko lakou omaka, a haawi lakou ia mau mea a pau i ke alii, i mea e lilo ai oia i hunonakane na ke alii: a haawi aku la o Saula ia Mikala, i kana kaikamahine, i wahine nana.
when David arose and went, he and his men, and smote of the Philistines two hundred men; and David brought their foreskins, and they delivered them in full to the king, that he might be the king's son-in-law. And Saul gave him Michal his daughter as wife.
28 Nana aku la o Saula, a ike hoi, aia no o Iehova me Davida, a o Mikala ke kaikamahine a Saula, ua aloha aku oia ia ia.
And Saul saw and knew that Jehovah was with David; and Michal Saul's daughter loved him.
29 A nui loa ae la ka makau o Saula ia Davida, a lilo o Saula i ko Davida enemi i na la a pau.
And Saul was yet the more afraid of David; and Saul was David's enemy continually.
30 A hele aku la na'lii o na Pilisetia: a mai ka manawa o ko lakou hele ana'ku, ua oi aku ka naauao o Davida i ko na kauwa a pau a Saula; no ia mea, ua manao nui ia kona inoa.
And the princes of the Philistines went forth; and it came to pass, whenever they went forth, that David succeeded better than all the servants of Saul; and his name was much esteemed.
