II Samuela 11
1 A I ka makahiki hou, i ka manawa e hele aku ai na alii [i ke kaua, ] hoouna aku la o Davida ia Ioaba, a me na kauwa ana me ia, a me ka Iseraela a pau; a luku aku la lakou i ka poe mamo a Amona; a pue aku la ia Raba: aka, noho iho la o Davida ma Ierusalema ia manawa.
And it came to pass, at the return of the year, at the time when kings go forth, that David sent Joab, and his servants with him, and all Israel; and they laid waste the [land of the] children of Ammon, and besieged Rabbah. But David abode at Jerusalem.
2 A i ka manawa ahiahi, ala'e la o Davida mai kona wahi moe, a holoholo ae la maluna o ka hale o ke alii: nana aku la ia mai luna ae o ka hale i kekahi wahine e auau ana: a he maikai loa ua wahine la ke nanaia'ku.
And it came to pass at evening time that David arose from off his couch, and walked upon the roof of the king's house; and from the roof he saw a woman bathing, and the woman was very beautiful;
3 Hoouna aku la o Davida e ninau aku no ka wahine. I mai la kekahi, Aole anei keia o Bateseba ke kaikamahine a Eliama, ka wahine hoi a Uria ka Heta?
and David sent and inquired after the woman. And one said, Is not this Bathsheba, the daughter of Eliam, the wife of Urijah the Hittite?
4 Hoouna aku la o Davida i na mea kii aku, a lalau aku la ia ia: a hele mai la ia iloko io na la, a moe iho la kela me ia; no ka mea, ua huikalaia oia i kona haumia ana: a hoi hou aku la ia i kona hale.
And David sent messengers, and took her; and she came in to him, and he lay with her; and she had purified herself from her uncleanness; and she returned to her house.
5 A hapai ae la ua wahine la, hoouna aku la a hai ia Davida, i ka i ana, Ua hapai au.
And the woman conceived, and sent and told David, and said, I am with child.
6 Hoouna aku la o Davida io Ioaba la, i aku la, E hoouna mai oe ia Uria ka Heta i o'u nei. A hoouna mai la o Ioaba ia Uria io Davida la.
And David sent to Joab [saying], Send me Urijah the Hittite. And Joab sent Urijah to David.
7 A hiki mai la o Uria io na la, ninau aku la o Davida ia ia i ka pomaikai o Ioaba, me ka pomaikai o na kanaka, a me ka pomaikai ana o ke kaua.
And when Urijah had come to him, David asked how Joab prospered, and how the people prospered, and how the war prospered.
8 I aku la o Davida ia Uria, e iho iho oe i kou hale, a e holoi i kou wawae. A hele aku la o Uria iwaho o ka hale o ke alii, a ukali aku la kekahi ai mahope ona na ke alii aku.
And David said to Urijah, Go down to thy house and wash thy feet. And Urijah departed out of the king's house, and there followed him presents from the king.
9 Aka, hiamoe iho la o Uria ma ka puka o ka hale o ke alii me na kauwa a pau a kona haku, aole ia i hele aku i kona hale.
And Urijah slept at the entrance of the king's house with all the servants of his lord, and went not down to his house.
10 Hai aku la lakou ia Davida, i aku la, Aole i hele aku o Uria i kona hale. Ninau aku la o Davida ia Uria, Aole anei oe i hele mai mai kou hele ana? Heaha hoi kau i hele ole aku ai i kou hale?
And they had told David saying, Urijah did not go down to his house; and David said to Urijah, Art thou not come from a journey? why didst thou not go down to thy house?
11 I aku la o Uria ia Davida, Ke noho nei ka pahuberita, a o ka Iseraela a o ka Iuda iloko o na halelewa; ke hoomoana la hoi kuu haku o Ioaba me na kauwa a kuu haku mawaho ma ke kula; e komo anei hoi au iloko o ko'u hale e ai, a e inu, a e moe me ka'u wahine? Ma kou ola ana, me ke ola ana hoi o kou uhane, aole au e hana ia mea.
And Urijah said to David, The ark, and Israel, and Judah abide in booths; and my lord Joab, and the servants of my lord, are encamped in the open fields: shall I then go into my house, to eat and to drink, and to lie with my wife? [As] thou livest, and [as] thy soul liveth, I will not do this thing.
12 I aku la o Davida ia Uria, E noho iho hoi oe i keia la, a apopo e kuu aku ai au ia oe e hoi. A noho iho la o Uria ma Ierusalema ia la, a hiki i kekahi la ae.
And David said to Urijah, Abide here to-day also, and to-morrow I will let thee depart. And Urijah abode in Jerusalem that day and the morrow.
13 Kahea aku la o Davida ia ia, a ai iho la ia a inu hoi imua ona; hoinu iho la o Davida ia ia a ona: a ahiahi ae la, hele aku la ia iwaho e moe ma kona wahi moe me na kauwa o kona haku, aole nae ia i hele i kona hale.
And David invited him, and he ate and drank before him; and he made him drunk. And in the evening he went out to lie on his couch with the servants of his lord, but did not go down to his house.
14 A kakahiaka ae, kakau iho la o Davida i ka palapala ia Ioaba, a hoouka aku la ia ma ka lima o Uria.
And it came to pass in the morning, that David wrote a letter to Joab, and sent it by Urijah.
15 Kakau iho la ia iloko o ka palapala, i ka i ana'ku, E hoonoho aku oe ia Uria ma ke alo o ke kaua ikaika, a e hoi i hope oukou mai ona aku la, i pepehiia'i oia a make.
And he wrote in the letter saying, Set Urijah in the front of the thickest fight, and withdraw from him, that he may be smitten and die.
16 A i ko Ioaba nana ana aku i ke kulanakauhale, hoonoho aku la oia ia Uria ma kahi ana i ike ai ilaila na kanaka ikaika.
And it came to pass as Joab watched the city, that he assigned Urijah to a place where he knew that the valiant men were.
17 Hele mai la na kanaka o ua kulanakauhale la iwaho, a kaua mai la ia Ioaba ma: a hina iho la kekahi poe kanaka o na kauwa a Davida, a make iho la hoi o Uria ka Heta.
And the men of the city went out and fought with Joab; and there fell some of the people, of the servants of David; and Urijah the Hittite died also.
18 Hoouna aku la o Ioaba, a hai aku la ia Davida i na mea a pau o ke kaua;
Then Joab sent and told David all the matters of the war;
19 Kauoha aku la ia i ka elele, i aku la, A pau kau hai ana aku i na mea o ke kaua i ke alii;
and charged the messenger, saying, When thou hast ended telling the matters of the war to the king,
20 Ina paha e huhu mai ke alii, a e i mai hoi ia oe, No ke aha la oukou i hele aku ai pela a kokoke i ke kulanakauhale i ke kaua ana o oukou? Aole anei oukou i ike, e pana mai lakou mai luna mai o ka pa?
and if so be that the king's wrath arise, and he say to thee, Why did ye go so near to the city to fight? did ye not know that they would shoot from the wall?
21 Nawai i pepehi ia Abimeleka ke keiki a Ierubeseta? Aole anei he wahine i hoolei iho i ka apana pohaku wili palaoa maluna ona, i make ai oia ma Tebeza? No ke aha la oukou i hele aku ai a kokoke i ka pa? Alaila e i aku oe, Ua make no hoi kau kauwa o Uria o ka Heta.
Who smote Abimelech the son of Jerubbesheth? did not a woman cast the upper stone of a handmill from the wall, that he died in Thebez? why did ye go near the wall? — then say thou, Thy servant Urijah the Hittite is dead also.
22 Hele aku la ka elele, hiki aku la a hai aku la ia Davida i na mea a pau a Ioaba i hoouna aku ai ia ia.
And the messenger went; and he came and told David all that Joab had sent him for.
23 I aku la ka elele ia Davida, He oiaio ua lanakila mai kela poe kanaka maluna o makou, a hele mai la lakou iwaho io makou la ma ke kula, a hahai aku la makou ia lakou a hiki i ke komo ana ma ka puka.
And the messenger said to David, The men prevailed against us, and came out against us into the field, and we were upon them as far as the entrance of the gate.
24 A pana mai la ka poe pana mai luna mai o ka pa maluna iho o kau poe kauwa, a ua make kekahi poe kauwa a ke alii, a ua make hoi kau kauwa o Uria.
And the shooters shot from upon the wall against thy servants; and some of the king's servants are dead, and thy servant Urijah the Hittite is dead also.
25 Alaila i aku la o Davida i ka elele, Penei kau e olelo aku ai ia Ioaba, Mai hoino oe ia mea ma kou manao; no ka mea, i ka ai ana mai a ka pahikaua e like me keia, pela no i na mea a pau: e hooikaika ae oe i kou kaua ana i ke kulanakauhale, a e hookahuli ia wahi; a nau no e hooikaika aku ia ia.
Then David said to the messenger, Thus shalt thou say to Joab: Let not this thing displease thee, for the sword devours one as well as another: make thy battle strong against the city, and overthrow it; — and encourage him.
26 A lohe ae la ka wahine a Uria, ua make o Uria kana kane, kanikau iho la ia i kana kane.
And the wife of Urijah heard that Urijah her husband was dead, and she mourned for her husband.
27 A pau ae la ke kanikau ana, kii aku la o Davida, a lawe mai la ia ia i kona hale, a lilo ae la ia i wahine nana: a hanau mai la ia i keikikane nana: aka, he ino ka mea a Davida i hana'i imua o Iehova.
And when the mourning was past, David sent and fetched her to his house, and she became his wife, and bore him a son. But the thing that David had done was evil in the sight of Jehovah.
