< I Samuela 2 >
1 PULE aku la o Hana, i aku la, O ko'u naau ke hauoli nei iloko o Iehova; O ko'u pepeiaohao ua hookiekieia iloko o Iehova; O ko'u waha ua hoakeaia maluna o ko'u poe enemi: No ka mea, ke hauoli nei au iloko o kou ola.
And Hannah prayed, and said, My heart rejoiceth in Yhwh, mine horn is exalted in Yhwh: my mouth is enlarged over mine enemies; because I rejoice in thy salvation.
2 Aohe mea hemolele e like me Iehova; No ka mea, aohe mea e ae, o oe wale no la. Aohe pohaku e like me ko kakou Akua.
There is none holy as Yhwh: for there is none beside thee: neither is there any rock like our God.
3 Mai olelo hou me ka hookiekie loa; Mai puka hou ka hookano mai ko oukou waha mai: No ka mea, he Akua ike o Iehova, Nana no i kaupaona na hana.
Talk no more so exceeding proudly; let not arrogancy come out of your mouth: for Yhwh is a God of knowledge, and by him actions are weighed.
4 O na kakaka o ka poe mana ua haki, O ka poe i haalulu ua kakooia me ka ikaika.
The bows of the mighty men are broken, and they that stumbled are girded with strength.
5 O na mea maona ua hoolimalima ia lakou iho no ka ai; O na mea pololi na noho hoomaha lakou. Pela hoi, o ka mea i pa ua hanau i ehiku; O ka mea keiki he nui ua hoonawaliwaliia.
They that were full have hired out themselves for bread; and they that were hungry ceased: so that the barren hath born seven; and she that hath many children is waxed feeble.
6 Na Iehova ka pepehi a me ka hoola: Nana i hoohaahaa ilalo i ka halelua, a nana no i hoala hou mai. (Sheol )
Yhwh killeth, and maketh alive: he bringeth down to the grave, and bringeth up. (Sheol )
7 Na Iehova i hooilihune, a oia no ka mea i waiwai ai: Nana i hoohaahaa, a me ka hookiekie.
Yhwh maketh poor, and maketh rich: he bringeth low, and lifteth up.
8 Ke hookiekie oia i ka poe ilihune mai ka lepo mai; Ke kaikai ae la ia i ka poe nele mai kahi ino mai, E hoonoho ia lakou me na'lii, E hooili no lakou i ka nohoalii nani: No Iehova na kia o ka honua. Nana i hoonoho ke ao nei maluna o lakou.
He raiseth up the poor out of the dust, and lifteth up the beggar from the dunghill, to set them among princes, and to make them inherit the throne of glory: for the pillars of the earth are Yhwh's, and he hath set the world upon them.
9 Nana no e malama na wawae o kona poe haipule, Aka, e make ka poe hewa iloko o ka pouli; No ka mea, aole ke kanaka e lanakila i ka ikaika.
He will keep the feet of his saints, and the wicked shall be silent in darkness; for by strength shall no man prevail.
10 O na enemi o Iehova e ulupaia lakou; Mai ka lani mai ia e hoohekili mai ai maluna o lakou: Na Iehova e hookolokolo na welau o ka honua; A e haawi mai ia i ka ikaika no kona alii. A e hookiekie hoi i ka pepeiaohao o kona mea i poniia.
The adversaries of Yhwh shall be broken to pieces; out of heaven shall he thunder upon them: Yhwh shall judge the ends of the earth; and he shall give strength unto his king, and exalt the horn of his anointed.
11 A hele aku la o Elekana i kona hale ma Rama: a hookauwa aku ke keiki na Iehova imua o Eli ke kahuna.
And Elkanah went to Ramah to his house. And the child did minister unto Yhwh before Eli the priest.
12 A o na keiki a Eli, he mau keiki hewa; aole i ike laua ia Iehova.
Now the sons of Eli were sons of Belial; they knew not Yhwh.
13 Ua maa no ia mea o na kahuna me na kanaka, a i kaumaha aku kekahi kanaka i ka mohai, hele mai ke kauwa a ke kahuna me ke o manamana kolu ma kona lima i ka manawa i hoolapalapa ai i ka io;
And the priests’ custom with the people was, that, when any man offered sacrifice, the priest’s servant came, while the flesh was in seething, with a fleshhook of three teeth in his hand;
14 A hou iho la iloko o ka ipu, o ka ipu lepo paha, o ka ipu keleawe paha, o ka ipu hao paha, a o ka mea a pau i loaa i ke o, na ke kahuna ia i lawe nana iho. Pela no lakou i hana'i ma Silo i ka Iseraela a pau i hele ai ilaila.
And he struck it into the pan, or kettle, or caldron, or pot; all that the fleshhook brought up the priest took for himself. So they did in Shiloh unto all the Israelites that came thither.
15 Mamua hoi o ke puhi ana i ka momona, hele mai la ke kauwa a ke kahuna, a i mai la i ke kanaka e kaumaha ana, E haawi mai i ka io no ka ohinu ana na ke kahuna; aole ona makemake ia oe i ka io i hoolapalapaia, aka, he io maka no.
Also before they burnt the fat, the priest’s servant came, and said to the man that sacrificed, Give flesh to roast for the priest; for he will not have sodden flesh of thee, but raw.
16 Ina i i aku kekahi kanaka ia ia, He pono no lakou e puhi koke i ka momona, alaila e lawe oe i ka mea a kou naau e makemake ai: a i mai la kela ia ia, Ano oe e haawi mai, a i ole, na'u no e kaili wale.
And if any man said unto him, Let them not fail to burn the fat presently, and then take as much as thy soul desireth; then he would answer him, Nay; but thou shalt give it me now: and if not, I will take it by force.
17 No ia mea, ua nui loa ka hewa o ua mau kanaka opiopio la imua o Iehova; no ka mea, ua hoowahawaha na kanaka i ka mohai a Iehova.
Wherefore the sin of the young men was very great before Yhwh: for men abhorred the offering of Yhwh.
18 Aka o Samuela, he keiki, lawelawe no ia imua o Iehova, i kaeiia i ka epoda olona.
But Samuel ministered before Yhwh, being a child, girded with a linen ephod.
19 Hana iho la kona makuwahine i wahi lole komo uuku nona, a lawe mai ia mea ia ia i kela makahiki keia makahiki, ia ia i hele mai ai me kana kane e kaumaha aku i ka mohai makahiki.
Moreover his mother made him a little coat, and brought it to him from year to year, when she came up with her husband to offer the yearly sacrifice.
20 Hoomaikai aku la o Eli la Elekana a me kana wahine, i aku la, Na Iehova i haawi mai ia oe i keiki na keia wahine no ka mea noi ana i noi ai ia Iehova. A hoi aku la laua i ko laua wahi.
And Eli blessed Elkanah and his wife, and said, Yhwh give thee seed of this woman for the loan which is lent to Yhwh. And they went unto their own home.
21 A ike mai la o Iehova ia Hana, hapai ae la ia, a hanau mai la na keikikane ekolu a me na kaikamahine elua. Ua nui ae o Samuela ke keiki imua o Iehova.
And Yhwh visited Hannah, so that she conceived, and bare three sons and two daughters. And the child Samuel grew before Yhwh.
22 A ua elemakule loa o Eli, a ua lohe no ia i na mea a pau a kana mau keiki i hana'i i ka Iseraela a pau; i ko laua moe ana me na wahine i houluuluia ma ka puka o ka halelewa anaina.
Now Eli was very old, and heard all that his sons did unto all Israel; and how they lay with the women that assembled at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
23 Ninau aku la oia ia laua, No ke aha la olua i hana'i i keia mau mea? Ua lohe au i keia poe kanaka a pau i ka olua hana ino ana.
And he said unto them, Why do ye such things? for I hear of your evil dealings by all this people.
24 He oiaio, e ka'u mau keiki, aole he mea pono ka'u i lohe ai; ua hoolilo olua i na kanaka o Iehova e hana hewa ai.
Nay, my sons; for it is no good report that I hear: ye make Yhwh's people to transgress.
25 Ina i hana hewa kekahi ia hai, alaila e hooponopono na lunakanawai ia ia; aka, i hana hewa ke kanaka ia Iehova, owai ka mea e pule aku nona? Aole no hoi laua i hoolohe i ka leo o ko laua makuakane; no ka mea, manao no o Iehova e pepehi mai ia laua.
If one man sin against another, the judge shall judge him: but if a man sin against Yhwh, who shall intreat for him? Notwithstanding they hearkened not unto the voice of their father, because Yhwh would slay them.
26 A nui ae la o Samuela ke keiki: a ua alohaia oia e Iehova a me kanaka.
And the child Samuel grew on, and was in favour both with Yhwh, and also with men.
27 Hele mai la kekahi kanaka o ke Akua ia Eli, i mai la ia ia, Ke i mai nei o Iehova peneia, Ua hoike akaka ia anei au i ko ka hale o kou makuakane, ia lakou i noho ai i Aigupita ma ka hale o Parao?
And there came a man of God unto Eli, and said unto him, Thus saith Yhwh, Did I plainly appear unto the house of thy father, when they were in Egypt in Pharaoh’s house?
28 A ua wae anei au ia ia noloko mai o na hanauna kanaka a pau o ka Iseraela i kahuna na'u, e kaumaha aku maluna o ko'u kuahu, e kuni i ka mea ala, e hookomo i ka epoda imua o'u? a ua haawi anei i ko ka hale o kou makuakane i na mohaikuni a pau a na mamo a Iseraela?
And did I choose him out of all the tribes of Israel to be my priest, to offer upon mine altar, to burn incense, to wear an ephod before me? and did I give unto the house of thy father all the offerings made by fire of the children of Israel?
29 No ke aha la oukou e keehi aku ai i kuu mohai, a me kuu alana a'u i kauoha aku ai ma [kuu] hale; a hoohanohano oe i kau mau keiki maluna o'u e hoomomona ana oukou ia oukou iho i na mea maikai o na mohai a pau a ka Iseraela, a kuu poe kanaka?
Wherefore kick ye at my sacrifice and at mine offering, which I have commanded in my habitation; and honourest thy sons above me, to make yourselves fat with the chiefest of all the offerings of Israel my people?
30 No ia mea, ke olelo mai nei o Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela, I iho la au, o ko ka hale ou, a me ko ka hale o kou makuakane, e hele mau loa lakou imua o'u; aka ano, ke i mai nei o Iehova, Hoole aku la au ia; no ka mea, o na mea e hoomaikai mai ia'u, na'u lakou e hoomaikai aku; a o na mea e hoowahawaha mai ia'u, e hoowahawahaia lakou.
Wherefore Yhwh God of Israel saith, I said indeed that thy house, and the house of thy father, should walk before me for ever: but now Yhwh saith, Be it far from me; for them that honour me I will honour, and they that despise me shall be lightly esteemed.
31 Aia hoi, e hiki mai ana ka la e oki ai au i kou lima, a me ka lima o ko ka hale o kou makuakane, i ole ai he elemakule iloko o kou hale.
Behold, the days come, that I will cut off thine arm, and the arm of thy father’s house, that there shall not be an old man in thine house.
32 E ike auanei oe i ka popilikia o ka halelewa mawaena o ka maikai ana e hana aku ai i ka Iseraela: aka, aole he elemakule iloko o kou hale i na la a pau.
And thou shalt see an enemy in my habitation, in all the wealth which God shall give Israel: and there shall not be an old man in thine house for ever.
33 A o ke kanaka ou a'u e oki ole ai mai kuu kuahu aku, e lilo ia i mea e hoopau ai i kou maka, a e hookaumaha ai i kou naau: a o na hua a pau o kou hale e make lakou i ka wa ui.
And the man of thine, whom I shall not cut off from mine altar, shall be to consume thine eyes, and to grieve thine heart: and all the increase of thine house shall die in the flower of their age.
34 Eia ka hoailona ia oe, o ka mea e hiki mai ana maluna o kau mau keiki elua, o Hopeni a o Pinehasa; i ka la hookahi e make no laua a elua.
And this shall be a sign unto thee, that shall come upon thy two sons, on Hophni and Phinehas; in one day they shall die both of them.
35 A e hooku auanei au i kahuna pono na'u, nana e hana ka mea ku i ko'u manao, a me ko'u naau: a na'u no e kukulu i hale mau nona, a e hele mau loa no ia imua o ko'u mea i poniia.
And I will raise me up a faithful priest, that shall do according to that which is in mine heart and in my mind: and I will build him a sure house; and he shall walk before mine anointed for ever.
36 A o kela mea keia mea i waihoia iloko o kou hale e hele mai no a e kulou iho imua ona no kekahi kala uuku, a me kekahi pai berena, a e i mai, Ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e haawi mai ia'u i wahi oihana kahuna, i ai iho ai au i kahi berena.
And it shall come to pass, that every one that is left in thine house shall come and crouch to him for a piece of silver and a morsel of bread, and shall say, Put me, I pray thee, into one of the priests’ offices, that I may eat a piece of bread.
