I Samuela 4
1 A HIKI ae la ka olelo a Samuela i ka Iseraela a pau. Hele ku e aku la ka Iseraela i ko Pilisetia i ke kaua, a hoomoana iho la ma Ebenezera; a o ko Pilisetia hoomoana iho la ma Apeka.
The word of Samuel came to all Israel. Now Israel went out against the Philistines to battle, and encamped beside Ebenezer; and the Philistines encamped in Aphek.
2 Hoomakaukau iho ko Pilisetia ia lakou iho e ku e i ka Iseraela; a hoouka iho la, a ua lukuia o ka Iseraela imua o ko Pilisetia; a eha tausani kanaka paha i lukuia i ke kaua ana ma ke kula.
The Philistines put themselves in array against Israel. When they joined battle, Israel was defeated by the Philistines, who killed about four thousand men of the army in the field.
3 A hiki mai la na kanaka i kahi i hoomoana'i, i ae la na lunakahiko o ka Iseraela, No ke aha la o Iehova i luku mai ai ia kakou i keia la imua o ko Pilisetia? E lawe mai io kakou nei i ka pahuberita o Iehova mai Silo mai, a hiki mai ia iwaena o kakou, oia ka mea e hoola ia kakou mai ka lima mai o ko kakou poe enemi.
When the people had come into the camp, the elders of Israel said, “Why has Yahweh defeated us today before the Philistines? Let’s get the ark of Yahweh’s covenant out of Shiloh and bring it to us, that it may come among us and save us out of the hand of our enemies.”
4 Hoouna aku la na kanaka ma Silo e lawe mai mailaila mai i ka pahuberita o Iehova sabaota, e waiho ana mawaena o na kerubima: ilaila na keiki elua a Eli, o Hopeni a me Pinehasa me ka pahuberita o ke Akua.
So the people sent to Shiloh, and they brought from there the ark of the covenant of Yahweh of Armies, who sits above the cherubim; and the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, were there with the ark of the covenant of God.
5 A hiki mai la ka pahuberita o Iehova iloko o kahi i hoomoana'i, hooho ae la ka Iseraela a pau me ka hooho nui, a haalulu ka honua.
When the ark of Yahweh’s covenant came into the camp, all Israel shouted with a great shout, so that the earth resounded.
6 A lohe ae la ko Pilisetia i ka leo o ka hooho ana, i ae la lakou, No ke aha la ka leo o keia hooho nui ana ma kahi i hoomoana'i ka poe Hebera? A ike lakou, ua hiki mai ka pahu o Iehova ma kahi i hoomoana'i.
When the Philistines heard the noise of the shout, they said, “What does the noise of this great shout in the camp of the Hebrews mean?” They understood that Yahweh’s ark had come into the camp.
7 Makau iho la ko Pilisetia, no ka mea, i iho la lakou, Ua hiki mai ke Akua iloko o kahi i hoomoana'i. I ae la lakou, Auwe kakou! no ka mea, aohe mea mamua e like ai me keia.
The Philistines were afraid, for they said, “God has come into the camp.” They said, “Woe to us! For there has not been such a thing before.
8 Auwe kakou! owai la ka mea nana kakou e hoola mai ka lima mai o keia mau Akua mana? o na Akua keia i luku ai i ka poe o Aigupita i ua ino a pau ma ka waonahele.
Woe to us! Who shall deliver us out of the hand of these mighty gods? These are the gods that struck the Egyptians with all kinds of plagues in the wilderness.
9 E ikaika oukou, e hookanaka hoi, e ko Pilisetia, i lilo ole ai oukou i kauwa na ka poe Hebera, e like me lakou na oukou: e hookanaka e kaua aku.
Be strong and behave like men, O you Philistines, that you not be servants to the Hebrews, as they have been to you. Strengthen yourselves like men, and fight!”
10 A kaua aku la ko Pilisetia, a lukuia o ka Iseraela, a holo kela kanaka keia kanaka i kona halelewa; a he nui loa na mea i make, no ka mea, haule iho la o ka Iseraela, he kanakolu tausani koa hele wawae.
The Philistines fought, and Israel was defeated, and each man fled to his tent. There was a very great slaughter; for thirty thousand footmen of Israel fell.
11 A ua haoia ka pahu o ke Akua; a make na keiki elua a Eli, o Hopeni a o Pinehasa.
God’s ark was taken; and the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, were slain.
12 Holo aku la kekahi kanaka no Beniamina mai ke kaua aku, a hiki ma Silo ia la hookahi, me kona kapa i haehaeia, a me ka lepo maluna o kona poo.
A man of Benjamin ran out of the army and came to Shiloh the same day, with his clothes torn and with dirt on his head.
13 A hiki aku la ia, aia hoi, e noho ana o Eli maluna o ka noho ma kapa alanui, e kiai ana: no ka mea, pihoihoi kona naau no ka pahu o ke Akua. A hiki aku la ke kanaka ma ke kulanakauhale, a hai aku, auwe nui iho la ko ke kulanakauhale a pau.
When he came, behold, Eli was sitting on his seat by the road watching, for his heart trembled for God’s ark. When the man came into the city and told about it, all the city cried out.
14 A lohe ae la o Eli i ka leo o ka uwe ana, i iho la ia, No ke aha la ka leo o keia haunaele? A hele koke mai ke kanaka, a hai ia Eli.
When Eli heard the noise of the crying, he said, “What does the noise of this tumult mean?” The man hurried, and came and told Eli.
15 He kanaiwakumamawalu ko Eli mau makahiki, ua ku paa kona mau maka, aole ia i ike.
Now Eli was ninety-eight years old. His eyes were set, so that he could not see.
16 I mai la ke kanaka ia Eli, Owau no ka mea i hele mai, mai ke kaua mai, i keia la wau i holo mai nei mai ke kaua mai. Ninau aku la ia, Heaha ka olelo, e kuu keiki?
The man said to Eli, “I am he who came out of the army, and I fled today out of the army.” He said, “How did the matter go, my son?”
17 Olelo mai la ka elele, i mai la, Ua hee ka Iseraela imua o ko Pilisetia: a ua nui loa ka poe kanaka i pepehiia; a o kau mau keiki elua, o Hopeni a o Pinehasa, ua make laua, a ua haoia ka pahu o ke Akua.
He who brought the news answered, “Israel has fled before the Philistines, and there has been also a great slaughter among the people. Your two sons also, Hophni and Phinehas, are dead, and God’s ark has been captured.”
18 A i kona hai ana mai i ka pahu o ke Akua, haule iho la o Eli mahope o kona noho ma ka aoao o ka ipuka, a hai kona a-i, a make iho la ia; no ka mea, he kanaka elemakule ia, ua kaumaha hoi. A ua hooponopono aku ia i ka Iseraela i na makahiki he kanaha.
When he made mention of God’s ark, Eli fell from off his seat backward by the side of the gate; and his neck broke, and he died, for he was an old man and heavy. He had judged Israel forty years.
19 A o kona hunonawahine, ka wahine a Pinehasa, ua hapai, kokoke no i puni: a lohe ae la oia ia mea, i ka lilo ana o ka pahu o ke Akua, i ka make ana o kona makuahonoaikane a me kaua kane hoi, kulou iho la ia, no ka hanau ana; no ka mea, ua hiki mai kona nahunahu ia ia.
His daughter-in-law, Phinehas’ wife, was with child, near to giving birth. When she heard the news that God’s ark was taken and that her father-in-law and her husband were dead, she bowed herself and gave birth; for her pains came on her.
20 A kokoke ia e make, i aku la na wahine e ku ana ia ia, Mai makau oe, no ka mea, ua hoohanau oe i keikikane. Aole ia i ekemu mai, aole hoi ia i maliu mai.
About the time of her death the women who stood by her said to her, “Don’t be afraid, for you have given birth to a son.” But she didn’t answer, neither did she regard it.
21 A kapa aku la ia i ka inoa o ke keiki o Ikaboda, i aku la, Ua hala aku la ka nani mai ka Iseraela aku; no ka pahu o ke Akua i laweia'ku, a no kona makuahonoaikane, a no kana kane.
She named the child Ichabod, saying, “The glory has departed from Israel!” because God’s ark was taken, and because of her father-in-law and her husband.
22 I aku la ia, Ua hala aku la ka nani mai ka Iseraela aku: no ka mea, ua haoia ka pahu o ke Akua.
She said, “The glory has departed from Israel; for God’s ark has been taken.”
