I Samuela 25

1 A MAKE iho la o Samuela; a hoakoakoaia'e la ka Iseraela a pau, a uwe iho la ia ia, a kanu aku la ia ia iloko o kona hale ma Rama. Ku ae la o Davida, a iho ilalo ma ka waonahele o Parana.

Samuel died; and all Israel gathered themselves together, and lamented him, and buried him in his house at Ramah. David arose, and went down to the wilderness of Maon.

2 A o kekahi kauaka ma Maona, a ma Karemela kona waiwai; a he kanaka waiwai loa ia, akolu ana tausani hipa, hookahi tausani kao; a ako iho la ia i kana poe hipa ma Karemela.

There was a man in Maon, whose possessions were in Carmel; and the man was very great, and he had three thousand sheep, and a thousand goats: and he was shearing his sheep in Carmel.

3 O Nabala ka inoa o ua kanaka la, a o Abigaila ka inoa o kana wahine: a he wahine akamai i ka noonoo, a he maikai kona helehelena: aka, o ke kanaka, he huhu ia, a he hewa kana hana ana: no ko Kaleba ohana ia.

Now the name of the man was Nabal; and the name of his wife Abigail. And the woman was intelligent and beautiful, but the man was harsh and evil in his dealings; and the man was a Calebite.

4 A lohe ae la o Davida ma ka waonahele e ako aua o Nabala i kana poe hipa.

David heard in the wilderness that Nabal was shearing his sheep.

5 Hoouna aku la o Davida i na kanaka ui he umi, a, i aku la o Davida i na kanaka ui, E pii ae oukou ma Karemela, a hele io Nabala la, a e aloha aku ia ia ma kuu inoa.

So David sent ten young men, and said to the young men, "Go up to Carmel, and go to Nabal, and greet him in my name.

6 Penei oukou e olelo aku ai ia ia e ola ana, Aloha oe, aloha ko ka hale, a aloha hoi kou mea a pau loa.

Thus you are to say to my brother, 'Peace be to you, and peace be to your house, and peace be to all that you have.

7 A ua lohe iho nei au, aia no ia oe na mea ako huluhipa: o kou poe kahuhipa me makou, aole makou i hana ino aku ia lakou, aole i lilo kekahi o ko lakou mea i ka manawa a pau a lakou i noho ai ma Karemela.

And now, look, I have heard that you have shearers. Now your shepherds have been with us in the wilderness, and we did not hurt them, neither was there anything missing from them, all the while they were in Carmel.

8 E ninau aku oe i kou poe kanaka ui, a e hai mai lakou ia oe. No ia mea, e loaa auanei i na kanaka ui ke aloha imua o kou maka: no ka mea, ua hiki mai makou i ka la maikai: ke noi aku nei au ia oe, o ka mea i loaa i kou lima e haawi na kau poe kauwa, a na kau keiki, na Davida.

Ask your young men, and they will tell you. Therefore let the young men find favor in your eyes; for we come in a good day. Please give whatever comes to your hand, to your servants, and to your son David.'"

9 A hiki aku la ka poe kanaka ui o Davida, hai aku la lakou ia Nabala ia mau olelo a pau ma ka inoa o Davida, a hooki iho la.

So the young men came and spoke to Nabal according to all those words on David's behalf, but he behaved arrogantly.

10 Olelo mai la o Nabala i na kauwa a Davida, i mai la, Owai la o Davida, owai hoi ke keiki a Iese? I neia manawa, ua nui na kauwa, o kela kanaka keia kanaka i mahuka mai ke alo aku o kona haku.

Nabal answered David's servants, and said, "Who is David? Who is the son of Jesse? There are many servants who break away from their masters these days.

11 E lawe anei au i kuu berena, a me ko'u wai, a me ka'u holoholona a'u i kalua'i na ka poe ako huluhipa, a e haawi aku na na kanaka a'u i ike ole ai i ko lakou wahi e hele mai nei?

Shall I then take my bread, and my wine, and my meat that I have slaughtered for the shearers of my sheep, and give it to men who I do not know where they come from?"

12 A huli ae la na kanaka ui o Davida ma ko lakou ala, a hoi aku la a hiki, a hai aku la lakou ia ia ia mau olelo a pau.

So David's young men turned on their way, and went back, and came and told him according to all these words.

13 I aku la o Davida i kona poe kanaka, E hawele oukou o kela kanaka keia kanaka i kana pahikaua. A hawele iho la kela kanaka keia kanaka i kana pahikaua; a hawele iho hoi o Davida i kana pahikaua; aha haneri kanaka paha i hahai mahope o Davida; alua haneri i noho ma na ukana.

David said to his men, "Every man put on his sword." So every man put on his sword. David also put on his sword. About four hundred men followed David; and two hundred stayed by the baggage.

14 A hai aku kekahi o ka poe kanaka ui ia Abigaila, ka wahine a Nabala, i aku la, Aia hoi, ua hoouna mai o Davida i na elele mai ka waonahele mai e aloha mai i ko makou haku, a lele ino aku oia ia lakou.

But one of the young men told Abigail, Nabal's wife, saying, "Look, David sent messengers out of the wilderness to greet our master; and he railed at them.

15 Aka, ua hana pono mai ia poe kanaka ia makou, aole i hana eha mai ia makou, aole i lilo kekahi mea o makou i na la a pau a makou i noho pu ai me lakou ma ke kula.

But the men were very good to us, and we were not hurt, nor did we miss anything as long as we went with them, when we were in the fields.

16 He pa pohaku lakou no makou ma ka po a me ke ao, i na la a pau a makou i noho pu ai me lakou, e malama ana i ka poe hipa.

They were a wall to us both by night and by day, all the while we were with them keeping the sheep.

17 Ano hoi e noonoo oe a ike i kau mea e hana aku ai; no ka mea, ua manao hewa ia mai no to makou haku, a no kona ohua a pau; no ka mea, he keiki ia na Beliala, aole e pono ke olelo aku ia ia.

Now therefore know and consider what you will do; for evil is determined against our master, and against all his house; for he is such a worthless fellow that one can't speak to him."

18 Alaila lalelale ae la o Abigaila, a lawe aku la i elua haneri pai berena, a i elua hue waina, a me na hipa elima i hoomakaukauia, a me na ipu hua palaoa elima i pulehuia, a i hookahi haneri paihuawaina maloo, a i elua haneri pai huafiku maloo, a kau ae la maluna o na hoki.

Then Abigail hurried and took two hundred loaves of bread, two bottles of wine, five sheep ready dressed, five measures of parched grain, one hundred clusters of raisins, and two hundred cakes of figs, and laid them on donkeys.

19 I aku la ia i kana poe kauwa, E hele e oukou mamua o'u, aia hoi, e hahai ana au mahope o oukou. Aole ia i hai aku ia Nabala kana kane.

She said to her young men, "Go on before me. Look, I come after you." But she did not tell her husband.

20 A i kona holo ana maluna o ka hoki a hiki ma kahi malu o ka mauna, aia hoi o Davida a me kona poe kanaka e iho mai ana e halawai me ia, a halawai aku la ia me lakou.

It was so, as she rode on her donkey, and came down by the covert of the mountain, that look, David and his men came down toward her; and she met them.

21 Ua olelo iho la o Davida, He oiaio, ua malama make hewa au i na mea a pau a keia kanaka ma ka waonahele, aole i lilo kekahi o kana mau mea a pau; a ua hoihoi mai ia i ka hewa ia'u no ka pono.

Now David had said, "Surely in vain have I kept all that this fellow has in the wilderness, so that nothing was missed of all that pertained to him. He has returned me evil for good.

22 Pela hoi, a e oi aku hoi ka ke Akua e hana aku ai i ka poe enemi o Davida, ke waiho au a hiki i ka malamalama o ke ao i kekahi o kona poe kane.

God do so to David, and more also, if I leave of all that belongs to him by the morning light so much as one who urinates on a wall."

23 A ike aku la o Abigaila ia Davida, lele koke iho la ia mai luna mai o ka hold, a haule ilalo ke alo imua o Davida, a kulou iho la ma ka honua.

When Abigail saw David, she hurried, and got off from her donkey, and fell before David on her face, and bowed herself to the ground at his feet.

24 A haule iho la ma kona wawae, i aku la, Maluna o'u, e kuu haku, maluna o'u ka hewa: a ke noi aku nei au, e ae mai oe i kau kauwawahine, e olelo aku maloko o kou pepeiao, a e hoolohe mai i ka olelo a kau kauwawahine.

And she said, "On me, my lord, be the guilt; and please let your servant speak to you directly, and hear the words of your servant.

25 Ke noi aku nei au ia oe, mai manao nui kuu haku i keia kanaka hewa, ia Nabala: no ka mea, e like me ke ano o kona inoa, pela hoi ia, o Nabala kona inoa, a me ia no ka lapuwale: aka, aole i ike kau kauwawahine i ka poe kanaka ui au i hoouna mai ai.

Please do not let my lord regard this worthless fellow, for as his name is, so is he. Nabal is his name, and folly is with him; but I, your servant, did not see the young men whom you sent.

26 Ano hoi, e kuu haku, ma ke ola o Iehova, a ma ke ola o kou uhane, no ke keakea ana o Iehova i kou hele mai e hookahe i ke koko, a me ka hoopai ana nou me kou lima iho, ano hoi, e lilo ana kou poe enemi, a me ka poe imi hewa i kuu haku, e like me Nabala.

Now therefore, my lord, as the LORD lives, and as your soul lives, since the LORD has withheld you from blood guiltiness, and from avenging yourself with your own hand, now therefore let your enemies, and those who seek evil to my lord, be as Nabal.

27 Ano hoi, o keia manawalea a kau kauwawahine i lawe mai nei na kuu haku, e haawiia'ku ia na ka poe kanaka ui e hele ana ma ka wawae o kuu haku.

Now this present which your servant has brought to my lord, let it be given to the young men who follow my lord.

28 Ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e kala ae oe i ka hala o kau kauwawahine: no ka mea, e hana io mai no o Iehova i hale mau no kuu haku; no ke kaua ana a kuu haku i na kaua o Iehova, aole i loaa ka hewa iloko ou i kou mau la.

Please forgive the trespass of your servant. For the LORD will certainly make my lord a sure house, because my lord fights the battles of the LORD; and evil shall not be found in you all your days.

29 Aka, ua ku mai kekahi kanaka e hahai ia oe, a e imi i kou ola: aka, e nakii pu ia auanei ke ola o kuu haku iloko o ka pua o ka poe ola me Iehova kou Akua; a o ke ola o kou poe enemi, nana no lakou e maa aku mai loko ae o ka maa.

Though men may rise up to pursue you, and to seek your soul, yet the soul of my lord shall be bound in the bundle of life with the LORD your God. He will sling out the souls of your enemies, as from the hollow of a sling.

30 A i ka manawa e hana mai ai o Iehova no kuu haku, e like me ka pono a pau ana i olelo mai ai nou, a e hoolilo ia oe i alii no ka Iseraela;

It shall come to pass, when the LORD has done to my lord according to all the good that he has spoken concerning you, and shall have appointed you prince over Israel,

31 Alaila aole e lilo keia i mea kaumaha nou, a me ka hihia no ka naau o kuu haku, o kou hookahe ole ana i ke koko hala ole, a o ka hoopai ole ana o kuu haku nona: a i hana pono mai o Iehova i kuu haku, alaila e hoomanao oe i kau kauwawahine.

that this will have no cause of grief or a troubled conscience for my lord, that blood was shed without cause and that my lord has gained victory by his own hand. And when the LORD has done well with my lord, then remember your servant."

32 Olelo mai la o Davida ia Abigaila, E hoomaikaiia ke Akua o ka Iseraela, i kona hoouna ana mai ia oe i keia la e halawai me au:

David said to Abigail, "Blessed is the LORD, the God of Israel, who sent you this day to meet me.

33 E hoomaikaiia kou naauao, a e hoomaikaiia oe i kou keakea ana mai ia'u i ka hele ana mai e hookahe i ke koko, a me ka hoopai ana no'u me kuu lima iho.

Blessed is your discretion, and blessed are you, that have kept me this day from blood guiltiness, and from avenging myself with my own hand.

34 He oiaio, ma ke ola o Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela, nana i keakea mai ia'u e hana hewa aku ia oe, ina paha aole oe i hele koke mai e halawai me au, ina aole koe ia Nabala a hiki i ka malamalama o ke ao kekahi o kona poe kane.

For indeed, as the LORD, the God of Israel, lives, who has withheld me from hurting you, unless you had hurried and come to meet me, surely there wouldn't have been left to Nabal by the morning light so much as one who urinates on a wall."

35 A lawe aku la o Davida mai kona lima aku i ka mea ana i lawe mai ai nana, a i aku la ia ia ia, E pii pomaikai oe ma kou hale; aia hoi, ua hoolohe aku au i kou leo, a ua maliu aku au ia oe.

So David received of her hand that which she had brought him: and he said to her, "Go up in peace to your house. Look, I have listened to your voice, and have granted your request."

36 A hoi aku la o Abigaila ia Nabala; aia hoi, he ahaaina kana ma kona hale e like me ka ahaaina alii; a ua olioli ka naau o Nabala iloko ona, no ka mea, ua ona loa: no ia mea, aole ia i hai iki aku ia ia, a hiki i ka malamalama o ke ao.

Abigail came to Nabal; and look, he held a feast in his house, like the feast of a king. Nabal's heart was merry within him, for he was very drunk. Therefore she told him nothing, less or more, until the morning light.

37 A ao ae la, i ka wa i hala aku ka waina mawaho o Nabala, a hai aku la kana wahine ia ia i keia mau mea, make iho la kona naau iloko ona, a like ia me ka pohaku.

It happened in the morning, when the wine was gone out of Nabal, that his wife told him these things, and his heart died within him, and he became as a stone.

38 A he anahulu paha la ma ia hope mai, pepehi mai o Iehova ia Nabala, a make iho la ia.

It happened about ten days after, that the LORD struck Nabal, so that he died.

39 A lohe ae la o Davida, ua make o Nabala, i iho la ia, E hoomaikaiia o Iehova, nana i hoopai aku maluna o Nabala i kuu hoinoia mai, a nana i keakea mai i kana kauwa i ole e hana ino; a ua hoihoi aku o Iehova i ka hewa o Nabala maluna o kona poo. A hoouna aku la o Davida, a kamailio me Abigaila e lawe ia ia i wahine nana.

And David heard, and he said, "Blessed is the LORD, who has taken my side in the matter of Nabal's insult, and has kept back his servant from evil. The LORD has returned the evildoing of Nabal on his own head." David sent and spoke concerning Abigail, to take her to him as wife.

40 A hiki aku la na kauwa a Davida io Abigaila la ma Karemela, olelo aku la lakou ia ia, i aku la, Ua hoouna mai o Davida ia makou iou la e lawe ia oe i wahine nana.

When the servants of David had come to Abigail to Carmel, they spoke to her, saying, "David has sent us to you, to take you to be his wife."

41 Ku ae la ia, a kulou iho la me kona maka ma ka honua, i aku la, Aia hoi, e hooliloia kau kauwawahine i kauwa e holoi ai i na wawae o na kauwa a kuu haku.

She got up and bowed herself with her face to the ground, and said, "Look, your servant is a lowly servant to wash the feet of your servants."

42 A ku koke ae la o Abigaila, a hooholo maluna o ka hoki me kona mau wahine elima i hele mahope ona; a hahai aku la ia mahope o na elele a Davida, a lilo ia i wahine nana.

Then Abigail got up quickly and rode on a donkey, and with five female servants following her; and she followed the messengers of David, and became his wife.

43 Lawe hoi o Davida ia Ahinoama no Iezereela, a lilo laua elua i mau wahine nana.

David also took Ahinoam of Jezreel; and they both became his wives.

44 Ua haawi aku o Saula ia Mikala kana kaikamahine, ka wahine a Davida, i wahine na Paleti ke keiki a Laisa no Galima.

Now Saul had given Mikal his daughter, David's wife, to Palti the son of Laish, who was of Gallim.
