I Samuela 19
1 OLELO aku la o Saula ia Ionatana i kana keiki, a i kana poe kauwa a pau, e pepehi ia Davida:
Saul said to Jonathan his son and to all his servants that they should kill David. But Jonathan, Saul's son, took great pleasure in David.
2 Aka o Ionatana, ke keiki a Saula ua nui kona aloha ia Davida. Hai aku la o Ionatana ia Davida, i aku la, Ke imi nei o Saula, ko'u makuakane, e pepehi ia oe. Ano hoi, ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e malama ia oe iho a kakahiaka, a e noho ma kahi malu, a e huna ia oe iho.
So Jonathan told David, “Saul my father seeks to kill you. Therefore be on your guard in the morning and hide yourself in a secret place.
3 A e hele aku au mawaho a e ku me ko'u makuakane ma ke kula, ma kou wahi, a e olelo aku au i ko'u makuakane nou, a e hai aku au ia oe i ka'u mea i ike ai.
I will go out and stand beside my father in the field where you are, and I will speak with my father about you. If I learn anything, I will tell you.”
4 A olelo pono aku la o Ionatana ia Saula kona makuakane no Davida, i aku la ia ia, Mai noho a hana hewa ke alii i kana kauwa ia Davida; no ka mea, aole oia i hana hewa mai ia oe, aka, ua pono loa kana hana ana ia oe.
Jonathan spoke well of David to Saul his father and said to him, “Do not let the king sin against his servant David. For he has not sinned against you, and his deeds have brought you good.
5 Ua waiho oia i kona ola iloko o kona lima, a pepehi aku la i ke kanaka Pilisetia, a ua hana mai o Iehova i ke ola nui no ka Iseraela n pau: ua ike no oe, a ua olioli no hoi; no ke aha la oe e hana hewa i ke koko hala ole, e pepehi hala ole ia Davida.
For he took his life in his hand and killed the Philistine. Yahweh brought about a great victory for all Israel. You saw it and rejoiced. Why would you sin against innocent blood by killing David for no reason?”
6 Hoolohe o Saula i ka leo o Ionatana; a hoohiki iho la ma ke ola o Iehova, aole ia e make.
Saul listened to Jonathan. Saul swore, “As Yahweh lives, he will not be put to death.”
7 Kahea aku la o Ionatana ia Davida, a hai aku la o Ionatana ia ia i keia mau mea a pau: a lawe mai oia ia Davida io Saula la, a noho ia imua ona e like me na la mamua.
Then Jonathan called David, and Jonathan told him all these things. Jonathan brought David to Saul, and he was in his presence as before.
8 A he kana hou: a hele aku la o Davida, a kaua aku i ko Pilisetia, a pepehi aku la ia lakou me ka luku nui: a holo lakou mai kona alo aku.
There was war again, and David went out and fought with the Philistines and defeated them with a great slaughter. They fled before him.
9 A maluna o Saula ka uhane ino na Iehova mai, i kona noho ana iloko o kona hale, me ka ihe ma kona lima: a hookanikani iho la o Davida me kona lima.
A harmful spirit from Yahweh came on Saul as he sat in his house with his spear in his hand, and as David was playing his instrument.
10 Imi aku la o Saula e hou aku ia Davida a i ka paia me ka ihe; a hele aku la ia mai ke alo aku o Saula, a hou aku la ia i ka ihe ma ka paia; a holo aku la o Davida, a pakele iho la ia po.
Saul tried to pin David to the wall with the spear, but he slipped away from Saul's presence, so that Saul drove the spear into the wall. David fled and escaped that night.
11 A hoouna aku la o Saula i na elele ma ka hale o Davida e kiai ia ia, a e pepehi ia ia i kakahiaka; a hai aku la o Mikala ka wahine a Davida ia ia, i aku la, Ina aole oe e hoopakele i kou ola i keia po, apopo e pepehiia oe.
Saul sent messengers to David's house to watch him that he might kill him in the morning. Michal, David's wife, told him, “If you do not save your life tonight, tomorrow you will be killed.”
12 Kuu iho la o Mikala ia Davida ma ka pukamakani: a hele aku la ia a holo, a pakele aku la.
So Michal let David down through the window. He went and fled, and escaped.
13 Lawe ae la o Mikala i kii, a waiho ma kahi moe, a waiho hoi i ka uluna hulu kao ma kona poo, a uhi iho la i ke kapa moe.
Michal took a household idol and laid it in the bed. Then she put a pillow of goats' hair at its head, and covered it with the clothes.
14 A hoouna aku o Saula i na elele e lalau ia Davida, i mai la ka wahine, He mai kona.
When Saul sent messengers to take David, she said, “He is sick.”
15 Hoouna hou aku o Saula i na elele e ike ia Davida, i aku la, E lawe mai ia ia io'u nei maluna o kahi moe, i pepehi ai au ia ia.
Then Saul sent the messengers to see David; he said, “Bring him up to me in the bed, so that I may kill him.”
16 A hiki aku la na elele, aia hoi, he kii maluna o kahi moe, me ka uluna hulu kao ma kona poo.
When the messengers came in, behold, the household idol was in the bed along with the pillow of goats' hair at its head.
17 I aku la o Saula ia Mikala, No ke aha la oe i hoopunipuni mai ai ia'u pela, a kuu aku i kuu enemi, i pakele ai ia? I mai la o Mikala ia Saula, Olelo mai no ia ia'u, E kuu ae oe ia'u, no ke aha la e pepehi aku ai au ia oe?
Saul said to Michal, “Why have you deceived me and let my enemy go, so that he has escaped?” Michal answered Saul, “He said to me, 'Let me go. Why should I kill you?'”
18 A holo aku la o Davida, a pakele aku la, a hele io Samuela la ma Rama, a hai aku la ia ia i na mea a pau a Saula i hana mai ai ia ia; a hele aku la laua me Samuela a noho ma Naiota.
Now David fled and escaped, and went to Samuel in Ramah and told him all that Saul had done to him. Then he and Samuel went and stayed in Naioth.
19 A ua haiia ia Saula, i ka i ana ae, Aia hoi o Davida ma Naiota i Rama.
It was told to Saul, saying, “See, David is at Naioth in Ramah.”
20 Hoouna aku la o Saula i na elele e lalau ia Davida: a ike lakou i ka poe kaula e wanana ana, a me Samuela e ku ana i hoonohoia maluna o lakou, hiki mai ka Uhane o ke Akua maluna o na elele a Saula, a wanana iho la lakou.
Then Saul sent messengers to capture David. When they saw the company of the prophets prophesying, and Samuel standing as head over them, the Spirit of God came on the messengers of Saul, and they also prophesied.
21 A haiia ia mea ia Saula, hoouna aku la ia i na elele hou, a wanana hoi lakou. A hoouna hou aku la o Saula i na elele, o ke kolu keia, a wanana no hoi lakou.
When Saul was told this, he sent other messengers, and they also prophesied. So Saul sent messengers again the third time, and they also prophesied.
22 Alaila hele aku la hoi ia ma Rama, a hiki ma ka punawai nui ma Seku: ninau aku la ia, i aku la, Mahea o Samuela a me Davida? a haiia mai, Aia ma Naiota i Rama.
Then he also went to Ramah and came to the deep well that is in Seku. He asked, “Where are Samuel and David?” Someone said, “See, they are at Naioth in Ramah.”
23 A hele aku la ia ma Naiota i Rama: a hiki mai ka Uhane o ke Akua maluna ona, a hele aku la ia e wanana ana, a hiki ma Naiota i Rama.
Saul went to Naioth in Ramah. Then the Spirit of God came upon him, and as he went he prophesied until he came to Naioth in Ramah.
24 A wehe ae la ia i kona aahu, a wanana ae la hoi ia imua o Samuela, a haule iho la ia me ka aahu ole ia la a pau, a ia po a pau. No ia mea, olelo ae la lakou, O Saula anei kekahi me ka poe kaula?
He stripped off his clothes and also prophesied before Samuel. He lay naked all that day and all that night. This is why they ask, “Is Saul also among the prophets?”
