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.
When he had finished speaking to Saul, the soul of Jonathan was bound to 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.
Saul took David into his service that day; he did 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.
Then Jonathan and David made a covenant of friendship because Jonathan 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.
Jonathan took off the robe that he was wearing and gave it to David with his armor, as well as his sword, bow, and belt.
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.
David went out wherever Saul sent him, and he succeeded. Saul set him over the men of war. This was pleasing in the eyes 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.
As they came home from defeating the Philistines, the women came from all the cities of Israel, singing and dancing, to meet King Saul, with tambourines, with joy, and with musical instruments.
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.
The women sang one to another as they played. They sang: “Saul has killed 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.
Saul was very angry, and this song displeased him. He said, “They have ascribed to David ten thousands, but they have ascribed only thousands to me. What more can he have but the monarchy?”
9 Awihi ae la ko Saula maka ia Davida mai ia manawa mai.
Saul looked at David with suspicion from that day on.
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.
The next day a harmful spirit from God rushed upon Saul and he raved within the house. So David played his instrument, as he did each day. Saul had a spear in his 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.
Saul threw the spear, for he thought, “I will pin David to the wall.” But David escaped from Saul's presence twice in this way.
12 Makau ae la o Saula ia Davida, no ka mea, me ia no o Iehova, a ua haalele aku la ia Saula.
Saul was afraid of David, because Yahweh was with him, but was no longer with 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.
So Saul removed him from his presence and appointed him a commander of a thousand. In this way David went out and came in before the people.
14 Ua naauao o Davida ma kona aoao a pau; a me ia no o Iehova.
David was prospering in all his ways, for Yahweh was with him.
15 A ike aku la o Saula i kona naauao loa, makau no oia ia ia.
When Saul saw that he prospered, 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.
Then Saul said to David, “Here is my oldest daughter Merab. I will give her to you as a wife. Only be courageous for me and fight Yahweh's battles.” For Saul thought, “Let not my hand be on him, but let the hand of the Philistines be on 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.
David said to Saul, “Who am I, and who are my relatives, or my father's clan 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.
But at the time when Merab, Saul's daughter, should have been given to David, she was given to Adriel the Meholathite as a 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.
But Michal, Saul's daughter, loved David. They told Saul, and this pleased him.
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.
Then Saul thought, “I will give her to him, so that she can be a trap for him, and that the hand of the Philistines may be against him.” So Saul said to David a second time, “You will be my son-in-law.”
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.
Saul commanded his servants, “Speak with David in private, and say, 'See, the king takes pleasure in you, and all his servants love you. Now then, become 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?
So Saul's servants spoke these words to David. Then David said, “Is it a small matter to you to be the king's son-in-law, since 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.
The servants of Saul reported to him the words which David spoke.
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.
Then Saul said, “Say this to David, 'The king does not desire any price for the bride except a hundred foreskins of the Philistines, to be avenged from the king's enemies.'” Now 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.
When his servants told David these words, it pleased David to be the king's son-in-law.
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.
Before those days had expired, David went with his men and killed two hundred Philistines. David brought their foreskins, and they gave them in full number to the king, so that he might be the king's son-in-law. So Saul gave him Michal his daughter as his 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.
When Saul saw, and he knew that Yahweh was with David, and that 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.
Saul was even more afraid of David. Saul was continually David's enemy.
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.
Then the princes of the Philistines came out for battle, and as often as they came out, David succeeded more than all the servants of Saul, so that his name was highly regarded.
