I Samuela 20
1 HOLO aku la o Davida mai Naiota i Rama aku, a hele mai, a i mai la imua o Ionatana, Heaha la ka'u i hana'i heaha ko'u hewa, heaha KO'U hala imua o kou makuakane, i imi mai ai ia i kuu ola?
And David fled from Naioth in Ramah, and came and said before Jonathan: 'What have I done? what is mine iniquity? and what is my sin before thy father, that he seeketh my life?'
2 I mai la oia ia ia, Aole loa; aole oe e make: aia hoi, aole e hana ko'u makuakane i ka mea nui, aole hoi i ka mea liilii, ke hai ole mai oia ia'u; no ke aha la ko'u makuakane i huna'i i keia mea ia'u? Aole pela.
And he said unto him: 'Far from it; thou shalt not die; behold, my father doeth nothing either great or small, but that he discloseth it unto me; and why should my father hide this thing from me? it is not so.'
3 Hoohiki aku la o Davida, i aku la, Ua ike pono kou makuakane i ka loaa ana ia'u o ke aloha imua o kou maka; a ua olelo iho, Aole e hoike keia mea ia Ionatana, o kaumaha ia: aka, he oiaio, ma ke ola o Iehova, a me ke ola o kou uhane, hookahi kapuwai wale no i koe iwaena o'u a me ka make.
And David swore moreover, and said: 'Thy father knoweth well that I have found favour in thine eyes; and he saith: Let not Jonathan know this, lest he be grieved; but truly as the LORD liveth, and as thy soul liveth, there is but a step between me and death.'
4 Olelo aku la o Ionatana ia Davida, O ka mea a kou naau e i mai ai, o ka'u ia e hana aku ai ia oe.
Then said Jonathan unto David: 'What doth thy soul desire, that I should do it for thee?'
5 I mai la o Davida ia Ionatana, Aia hoi, apopo ka malama hou, a he pono ia'u e noho pu me ke alii i ka ahaaina: aka, e kuu mai oe ia'u, a huna au ia'u iho ma ke kula, a hiki i ke ahiahi o ka po akolu.
And David said unto Jonathan: 'Behold, to-morrow is the new moon, when I should sit with the king to eat; so let me go, that I may hide myself in the field unto the third day at even.
6 Ina paha i ike kou makuakane i ko'u nalo ana, alaila e i aku oe, Ua noi ikaika mai o Davida ia'u e holo ia ma Betelehema i kona kulanakauhale; no ka mea, ilaila ka mohai makahiki no ka ohana a pau.
If thy father miss me at all, then say: David earnestly asked leave of me that he might run to Beth-lehem his city; for it is the yearly sacrifice there for all the family.
7 Ina paha i olelo mai ia peneia, Ua pono; ina na maluhia kau kauwa: aka, ina paha i huhu nui mai ia, he oiaio, ua ino kona manao ana mai.
If he say thus: It is well; thy servant shall have peace; but if he be wroth, then know that evil is determined by him.
8 No ia mea, e hana mai i kau kauwa me ke aloha; no ka mea, ua hookomo mai oe i kau kauwa iloko o ke kuikahi me oe ma o Iehova la: ina paha he hewa iloko o'u, nau no wau e pepehi; no ke aha la oe e lawe aku ai ia'u i kou makuakane?
Therefore deal kindly with thy servant; for thou hast brought thy servant into a covenant of the LORD with thee; but if there be in me iniquity, slay me thyself; for why shouldest thou bring me to thy father?'
9 I aku la o Ionatana, Aole loa ia mea ia oe: no ka mea, ina paha i ike pono wau, ua ino ka manao ana o ko'u makuakane e hele mai maluna ou, aole anei au i hai aku ia oe?
And Jonathan said: 'Far be it from thee; for if I should at all know that evil were determined by my father to come upon thee, then would not I tell it thee?
10 I mai o Davida ia Ionatana, Nawai la wau e hai mai? Pehea la, ke olelo pakike mai kou makuakane ia oe?
Then said David to Jonathan: 'Who shall tell me if perchance thy father answer thee roughly?'
11 I aku la o Ionatana ia Davida, Ea, e hele kaua iwaho ma ke kula, A hele aku la laua ma ke kula.
And Jonathan said unto David: 'Come and let us go out into the field.' And they went out both of them into the field.
12 I aku la o Ionatana ia Davida, E Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela, aia e ninau pono aku au i ko'u makuakane i kekahi manawa i ka la apopo, a ia la aku paha, aia hoi, he mea pono no Davida, a e hoouna ole aku au iou la, a e hai ia oe;
And Jonathan said unto David: 'The LORD, the God of Israel — when I have sounded my father about this time to-morrow, or the third day, behold, if there be good toward David, shall I not then send unto thee, and disclose it unto thee?
13 E hana mai o Iehova ia Ionatana pela, a nui aku hoi: ina paha i makemake ko'u makuakane e hana ino ia oe; alaila e hai aku au ia oe, a e hookuu aku ia oe e hele oe me ke aloha; a o Iehova pu kekahi me oe, e like me ia mamua me ko'u makuakane.
The LORD do so to Jonathan, and more also, should it please my father to do thee evil, if I disclose it not unto thee, and send thee away, that thou mayest go in peace; and the LORD be with thee, as He hath been with my father.
14 Aole i ko'u manawa e ola ana wale no oe e hoike mai ia'u i ka lokomaikai o Iehova, i make ole ai au;
And thou shalt not only while yet I live show me the kindness of the LORD, that I die not;
15 Aka, mai hooki oe i kou lokomaikai i ko'u hale i na manawa a pau; aole hoi i ka manawa e hookiia'i na enemi a pau o Davida, mai ke alo aku o ka honua.
but also thou shalt not cut off thy kindness from my house for ever; no, not when the LORD hath cut off the enemies of David every one from the face of the earth.'
16 A kuikahi iho la o Ionatana me ko ka hale o Davida, [i ka i ana, ] Na Iehova e imi mai ia ma ka lima o ko Davida poe enemi.
So Jonathan made a covenant with the house of David: 'The LORD even require it at the hand of David's enemies.'
17 A hoohiki hou aku la o Ionatana me Davida, no kona aloha ia ia; no ka mea, ua aloha no oia ia ia, e like me ia i aloha ai i kona ola iho.
And Jonathan caused David to swear again, for the love that he had to him; for he loved him as he loved his own soul.
18 I aku la o Ionatana ia ia, Apopo ka mahina hou; a e ikeia kou nalo ana, no ka mea, e ikeia kou noho kaawale.
And Jonathan said unto him: 'To-morrow is the new moon; and thou wilt be missed, thy seat will be empty.
19 A i ka po akolu, e iho wawe oe a hiki ma kahi au i pee ai i ka la o ka hana ana, a e noho oe ma ka pohaku o Ezela:
And in the third day thou shalt hide thyself well, and come to the place where thou didst hide thyself in the day of work, and shalt remain by the stone Ezel.
20 A e pana aku au i na pua ekolu ma ka aoao, e like me ka pana ana'ku i ka hoailona.
And I will shoot three arrows to the side-ward, as though I shot at a mark.
21 Aia hoi, e hoouna aku au i kekahi keiki e hele e imi i na pua. A ina paha e olelo akaka aku au i ke keiki, Aia na pua ma keia aoao ou, e lawe ia mau mea; alaila e hele mai oe: no ka mea, he pomaikai nou, aohe mea ino, ma ke ola o Iehova.
And, behold, I will send the lad: Go, find the arrows. If I say unto the lad: Behold, the arrows are on this side of thee; take them, and come; for there is peace to thee and no hurt, as the LORD liveth.
22 Aka, ina e olelo aku au i ke keiki peneia, Aia na pua ma o aku ou; alaila e hele e aku oe: no ka mea, na Iehova oe i Hoouna aku ai.
But if I say thus unto the boy: Behold, the arrows are beyond thee; go thy way; for the LORD hath sent thee away.
23 A ma ka mea a kaua i kamailio ai, aia hoi, o Iehova no iwaena o kaua i ka manawa a pau.
And as touching the matter which I and thou have spoken of, behold, the LORD is between me and thee for ever.'
24 A pee iho la o Davida ma ke kula: a hiki mai ka mahina hou, noho iho la ke alii e ahaaina ai.
So David hid himself in the field; and when the new moon was come, the king sat him down to the meal to eat.
25 Noho iho ke alii maluna o kona noho, me ia i ka manawa mamua, maluna o ka noho ma ka paia: a ku ae la o Ionatana, a noho iho la o Abenera ma ka aoao o Saula, a ua kaawale ko Davida wahi.
And the king sat upon his seat, as at other times, even upon the seat by the wall; and Jonathan stood up, and Abner sat by Saul's side; but David's place was empty.
26 Aka, aole o Saula i olelo iki ia la: no ka mea, manao iho la ia, ua hiki mai kekahi mea ia ia, ua haumia oia; oiaio, ua haumia oia.
Nevertheless Saul spoke not any thing that day; for he thought: 'Something hath befallen him, he is unclean; surely he is not clean.'
27 A ia la ae, oia ka po alua o ka malama, ua kaawale ko Davida wahi; ninau aku la o Saula ia Ionatana i kana keiki, No ke aha la i hele ole mai ai ke keiki a Iese i ka ahaaina inehinei a i keia la?
And it came to pass on the morrow after the new moon, which was the second day, that David's place was empty; and Saul said unto Jonathan his son: 'Wherefore cometh not the son of Jesse to the meal, neither yesterday, nor to-day?'
28 I mai la o Ionatana ia Saula, Ua noi ikaika mai o Davida ia'u, e hele ia ma Betelehema.
And Jonathan answered Saul: 'David earnestly asked leave of me to go to Beth-lehem;
29 A i mai la ia, Ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e kuu mai oe ia'u e hele, no ka mea, he mohai ohana no makou ma ke kulanakauhale, a ua kauoha mai kuu kaikuaana ia'u; ano hoi, ina ua loaa ia'u ke aloha i kou maka, e ae mai oe ia'u e hele koke aku au e ike i ko'u mau hoahanau: oia ka mea i hele ole mai ai ia i ka papaaina o ke alii.
and he said: Let me go, I pray thee; for our family hath a sacrifice in the city; and my brother, he hath commanded me; and now, if I have found favour in thine eyes, let me get away, I pray thee, and see my brethren. Therefore he is not come unto the king's table.'
30 Alaila hoaia ka inaina o Saula ia Ionatana, i aku la ia ia, E ke keiki paakiki, kekee, aole anei au i ike, ua koho aku oe i ke keiki a Iese, i mea hilahila nou, a me ka hilahila o kahi huna o kou makuwahine?
Then Saul's anger was kindled against Jonathan, and he said unto him: 'Thou son of perverse rebellion, do not I know that thou hast chosen the son of Jesse to thine own shame, and unto the shame of thy mother's nakedness?
31 No ka mea, i na la a pau o ke ola ana o ke keiki a Iese maluna o ka honua, aole e hookupaaia oe a me kou aupuni: ano hoi, e hoouna aku oe, a e lawe mai ia ia io'u nei, no ka mea, e pono no ia ke make.
For as long as the son of Jesse liveth upon the earth, thou shalt not be established, nor thy kingdom. Wherefore now send and fetch him unto me, for he deserveth to die.'
32 Olelo mai la o Ionatana ia Saula i kona makuakane, i mai la ia ia, No ke aha la e pepehiia'i oia? heaha kana i hana'i?
And Jonathan answered Saul his father, and said unto him: 'Wherefore should he be put to death? what hath he done?'
33 Hou aku la o Saula i ka ihe ia ia e pepehi ia ia: no ia mea, ike iho la o Ionatana i ka manao ana o kona makuakane e pepehi ia Davida.
And Saul cast his spear at him to smite him; whereby Jonathan knew that it was determined of his father to put David to death.
34 Ku ae la o Ionatana mai ka papaaina mai me ka huhu wela, aole ia i ai i ka ai i ka lua o ka la o ka malama, no kona kaumaha ia Davida, no ka mea, ua olelo hoino kona makuakane ia ia.
So Jonathan arose from the table in fierce anger, and did eat no food the second day of the month; for he was grieved for David, and because his father had put him to shame.
35 A i kakahiaka ae, hele aku la o Ionatana ma ke kula i ka manawa i oleloia ai me Davida, a me ia pu kekahi keiki.
And it came to pass in the morning, that Jonathan went out into the field at the time appointed with David, and a little lad with him.
36 I aku la ia i kona keiki, E holo, e imi i na pua a'u e pana aku ai. A i kona holo ana, pana aku la ia i ka pua ma o aku ona.
And he said unto his lad: 'Run, find now the arrows which I shoot.' And as the lad ran, he shot an arrow beyond him.
37 A hiki aku la ke keiki ma kahi o ka pua a Ionatana i pana aku ai, kahea aku la o Ionatana i ke keiki, i aku la, Aole anei ma o aku ou ka pua?
And when the lad was come to the place of the arrow which Jonathan had shot, Jonathan cried after the lad, and said: 'Is not the arrow beyond thee?'
38 Kahea aku la o Ionatana mahope o ke keiki, E lalelale, e wiki, mai kali oe. Hoiliili ae la ke keiki o Ionatana i na pua, a hoi mai i kona haku.
And Jonathan cried after the lad: 'Make speed, hasten, stay not.' And Jonathan's lad gathered up the arrows, and came to his master.
39 Aole ike iki ua keiki la: o Ionatana laua o Davida wale no ka i ike ia mea.
But the lad knew not any thing; only Jonathan and David knew the matter.
40 Haawi aku la o Ionatana i kana mea kaua ma kona keiki, i aku la ia ia, O hele, a lawe aku ma ke kulanakauhale.
And Jonathan gave his weapons unto his lad, and said unto him: 'Go, carry them to the city.'
41 A hala aku la ke keiki, ku ae la o Davida ma ke kukuluhema, a haule iho la ilalo ke alo ma ka honua, a kulou iho la ekolu kulou ana: honi iho la laua kekahi i kekahi, a uwe pu laua, a nui aku la ka Davida.
And as soon as the lad was gone, David arose out of a place toward the South, and fell on his face to the ground, and bowed down three times; and they kissed one another, and wept one with another, until David exceeded.
42 I aku la o Ionatana ia Davida, O hele me ka malu, no ka mea, ua hoohiki kaua a elua ma ka inoa o Iehova, i ka i ana ae, O Iehova no iwaena o'u a o oe, a iwaena hoi o ko'u hua a o kou hua i ka manawa a pau. Ku ae la ia, a hele aku la; a hoi aku la o Ionatana ma ke kulanakauhale.
And Jonathan said to David: 'Go in peace, forasmuch as we have sworn both of us in the name of the LORD, saying: The LORD shall be between me and thee, and between my seed and thy seed, for ever.' And he arose and departed; and Jonathan went into the city.
