< 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.
And David departed thence, and escaped to the cave 'Adullam: and when his brothers and all his father's house heard 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 there gathered themselves unto him every one that was in distress, and every one that had a creditor, and every one that had an embittered spirit; and he became a captain over them: 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 went thence to Mizpeh of Moab: and he said unto the king of Moab, Let my father and my mother, I pray thee, go forth with you, until I can 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 conducted them to the presence of the king of Moab: and they remained with him all the time that David was in the strong-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 the prophet Gad said unto David, Thou must not remain in the strong-hold: depart, and get thee into the land of Judah. Then David departed, and came into the forest of Chereth.
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 discovered, and the men that were with him, [now Saul was sitting in Gib'ah under the tamarisk on the hill, with 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;
Then said Saul unto his servants that stood about him, Hear, I pray you, men of Benjamin! will the son of Jesse give, indeed, to every one of you fields and vineyards? will he appoint you all captains of thousands, and captains of hundreds?
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 ye have conspired, all of you, against me, and there is none that informeth me, while my son hath made a covenant with the son of Jesse, and there is none of you that is concerned for me, or informeth me that my son hath stirred up my servant to lie in wait against me, as it is 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.
Then answered Doeg the Edomite, who was set over the servants of Saul, and said, I saw the son of Jesse coming to Nob, to Achimelech the son of Achitub.
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 asked counsel for him of the Lord, and he gave him provision, and gave him also 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 sent the king to call Achimelech, the son of Achitub, the priest, and all his father's house, the priests that were in Nob: 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, Hear now, thou son of Achitub. And he said, here am I, 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 unto him, Why have ye conspired against me, thou and the son of Jesse, in that thou didst give him bread, and a sword, and hast asked counsel for him of God, that he should rise to lie in wait against me, as it is 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?
Then answered Achimelech the king, and said, And who is among all thy servants so trusted as David, and the king's son-in-law, and freely admitted to thy private council, and is honored 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 this day then begin to ask counsel for him of God? far be it from me; let not the king impute any thing unto his servant, [nor] to all the house of my father; for thy servant knew not of all this, either a little or great thing.
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, Thou shalt surely 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 unto the runners that stood about him, Turn round and slay the priests of the Lord; because their hand also is with David, and because they knew that he was fleeing, and did not disclose it to me. But the servants of the king would not stretch forth their hand to fall upon 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 round, and fall upon the priests. And Doeg the Edomite turned round, and he fell upon the priests, and slew on that day eighty and five persons that did wear a 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 Nob, the city of the priests, he smote with the edge of the sword, both men and women, children and sucklings, and oxen, and asses, and lambs, 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.
And there escaped one of the sons of Achimelech the son of Achitub, whose name was Ebyathar, and he fled after David.
21 A hoike aku la o Abiatara ia Davida i ka Saula pepehi ana i na kahuna o Iehova.
And Ebyathar told David 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 unto Ebyathar, I knew on that day, because Doeg the Edomite was there, that he would surely tell Saul: I have myself occasioned the death of all the persons 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.
Remain thou with me, fear nothing; for he that will seek my life will seek thy life; but thou shalt be well guarded with me.
