< I Samuela 22 >
1 HELE o Davida mai laila aku, a holo aku la ma ke ana o Adulama: a lohe ae la kona mau hoahanau a me na mea a pau o ka hale o kona makuakane, hele lakou io na la ilaila.
David therefore went from thence and fled to the cave of Odollam. And when his brethren, and all his father’s house had heard of it, they went down to him thither;
2 O na kanaka a pau i popilikia, a me na kanaka aie a pau, a me na kanaka a pau i eha ma ka naau, hoakoakoa ae la lakou io na la: a lilo ia i luna no lakou: eha haneri kanaka paha me ia.
And all that were in distress and oppressed with debt, and under affliction of mind gathered themselves unto him: and he became their prince, and there were with him about four hundred men.
3 A hele o Davida mai laila aku a Mizepa ma Moaba: i aku la ia i ke alii o Moaba, Ke noi aku nei au, e ae mai oe i ko'u makuakane a me ko'u makuwahine e hele mai e noho me oe, a ike au i ka mea a ke Akua e hana mai ai no'u.
And David departed from thence into Maspha of Moab: and he said to the king of Moab: Let my father and my mother tarry with you, I beseech thee, till I know what God will do for me.
4 A lawe mai oia ia laua i ke alii o Moaba, a noho laua me ia i na la a pau a Davida i noho ai maluna o ka puukaua.
And he left them under the eyes of the king of Moab, and they abode with him all the days that David was in the hold.
5 Olelo aku la ke kaula a Gada ia Davida, Mai noho oe ma ka puukaua; e hele aku, a hiki oe ma ka aina o ka Iuda. A hele aku la o Davida a hiki ma ka ululaau o Hareta.
And Gad the prophet said to David: Abide not in the hold, depart, and go into the land of Juda. And David departed, and came into the forest of Haret.
6 A lohe ae la o Saula, ua ikeia o Davida, a me na kanaka me ia, (e noho ana o Saula ma Gibea malalo o ka laau ma kahi kiekie, a ma kona lima kana ihe, a ua hoonohoia kana mau kauwa a puni ona; )
And Saul heard that David was seen, and the men that were with him. Now whilst Saul abode in Gabaa, and was in the wood, which is by Rama, having his spear in his hand, and all his servants were standing about him,
7 Olelo aku la o Saula i kana poe kauwa e ku ana a puni ona, E hoolohe ano, e na Beniamina; e haawi anei ke keiki a Iese i na mahinaai, a me na pawaina na oukou a pau, a e hoolilo ia oukou a pau i luna tausani, a i luna haneri;
He said to his servants that stood about him: Hear me now, ye sons of Jemini: will the son of Isai give everyone of you fields, and vineyards, and make you all tribunes, and centurions:
8 I kipi ai oukou a pau ia'u, aohe mea e hoike mai ia'u, ua hana ka'u keiki me ke keiki a Iese i kuikahi, aole kekahi o oukou e manao mai ia'u, aole hoi e hoike mai ia'u, ua hoala ka'u keiki i ka'u kauwa e ku e ia'u, e hoohalua, e like me ia i keia la?
That all of you have conspired against me, and there is no one to inform me, especially when even my son hath entered into league with the soil of Isai? There is not one of you that pitieth my case, nor that giveth me any information: because my son hath raised up my servant against me, plotting against me to this day.
9 Alaila olelo mai o Doega no Edoma, oia ka luna o na kauwa a Saula, i mai la, Ua ike au i ke keiki a Iese e hele ana ma Noba io Ahimeleka la ke keiki a Ahituba.
And Doeg the Edomite who stood by, and was the chief among the servants of Saul, answering, said: I saw the son of Isai, in Nobe with Achimelech the son of Achitob the priest.
10 A ua ninau aku oia ia Iehova nona, a haawi aku i ka ai nana, a haawi aku hoi ia ia i ka pahikaua a Golia ke kanaka no ko Pilisetia.
And he consulted the Lord for him, and gave him victuals, and gave him the sword of Goliath the Philistine.
11 Alaila hoouna aku ke alii e hea ia Ahimeleka, ke kahuna, ke keiki a Ahituba, a me ko ka hale a pau o kona makuakane, na kahuna ma Noba; a hele mai lakou a pau i ke alii.
Then the king sent to call for Achimelech the priest the son of Achitob, and all his father’s house, the priests that were in Nobe, and they came all of them to the king.
12 I aku la o Saula, Ano e hoolohe mai oe, e ke keiki a Ahituba. I mai la kela, Eia wau, e kuu haku.
And Saul said to Achimelech: Hear, thou son of Achitob. He answered: Here I am, my lord.
13 I aku la o Saula ia ia, No ke aha la i kipi ai olua ia'u o oe a me ke keiki a Iese, i kou haawi ana ia ia i ka berena, a me ka pahikaua, a ua ninau oe i ke Akua nona, i ku e mai ia ia'u e halua, e like me ia i keia la.
And Saul said to him: Why have you conspired against me, thou, and the son of Isai, and thou hast given him bread and a sword, and hast consulted the Lord for him, that he should rise up against me, continuing a traitor to this day.
14 Olelo mai la o Ahimeleka i ke alii, i mai la, Owai la ka mea o kau poe kauwa i malama pono e like me Davida, ka hunonakane a ke alii, a ua hele ia i kau i ana aku, a ua manao nui ia ma kou hale?
And Achimelech answering the king, said: And who amongst all thy servants is so faithful as David, who is the king’s son in law, and goeth forth at thy bidding, and is honourable in thy house?
15 O kuu hoomaka no anei ia e ninau aku i ke Akua nona? Aole ia'u ia mea: mai hooili ke alii ia mea maluna o kana kauwa, maluna hoi o ko ka hale a pau o ko'u makuakane; no ka mea, aole i ike kau kauwa i ka mea uuku, aole hoi i ka mea nui o keia mea.
Did I begin today to consult the Lord for him? far be this from me: let not the king suspect such a thing against his servant, or any one in all my father’s house: for thy servant knew nothing of this matter, either little or great.
16 I aku la ke alii, E make io auanei oe, e Ahimeleka, o oe a me ko ka hale a pau o kou makuakane.
And the king said: Dying thou shalt die, Achimelech, thou and all thy father’s house.
17 Olelo aku la ke alii i ka poe kiai e ku ana a puni ona, E huli ae oukou a e pepehi i na kahuna no Iehova; no ka mea, ua hui pu ko lakou lima me Davida, a ua ike lakou i kona mahuka ana, aole hoi i hoike mai ia'u Aka, aole makemake na kauwa a ke alii e kau aku i ko lakou lima e lele maluna o na kahuna no Iehova.
And the king said to the messengers that stood about him: Turn, and kill the priests of the Lord, for their hand is with David, because they knew that he was fled, and they told it not to me. And the king’s servants would not put forth their hands against the priests of the Lord.
18 I aku la ke alii ia Doega, E huli ae oe, a lele maluna o ua kahuna. A huli ae la o Doega, ka Edoma, a lele maluna o na kahuna, a pepehi iho la ia la i na kanaka he kanawalukumamalima i pulikiia i ka epoda olona.
And the king said to Doeg: Turn thou, and fall upon the priests. And Doeg the Edomite turned, and fell upon the priests and slew in that day eighty-five men that wore the linen ephod.
19 A luku aku la oia ia Noba ke kulanakauhale o na kahuna me ka maka o ka pahikaua; o na kanaka, o na wahine, o na kamalii, o na mea omo waiu, o na bipi, o na hoki, a me na hipa, me ka maka o ka pahikaua.
And Nobe the city of the priests he smote with the edge of his sword, both men and women, children, and sucklings, and ox and ass, and sheep with the edge of the sword.
20 A o kekahi o na keiki a Ahimeleka, ke keiki a Ahituba, o Abiatara kona inoa, pakele aku la ia, a holo aku mahope o Davida.
But one of the sons of Achimelech the son of Achitob, whose name was Abiathar, escaped, and fled to David,
21 A hoike aku la o Abiatara ia Davida i ka Saula pepehi ana i na kahuna o Iehova.
And told him that Saul had slain the priests of the Lord.
22 I mai la o Davida i Abiatara, Ia la, i ka noho ana o Doega ka Edoma malaila, ike no wau, e hai aku ia ia Saula: owau no ka mea i make ai o na mea a pau o ka hale o kou makuakane.
And David said to Abiathar: I knew that day when Doeg the Edomite was there, that without doubt he would tell Saul: I have been the occasion of the death of all the souls of thy father’s house.
23 E noho pu oe me au, mai makau: no ka mea, o ka mea nana e imi mai i kuu ola, oia ke imi mai i kou ola: aka, me a'u e maluhia oe.
Abide thou with me, fear not: for he that seeketh my life, seeketh thy life also, and with me thou shalt be saved.
