II Samuela 13
1 A MAHOPE iho o ia mea, he kaikuwahine maikai ko Abesaloma ke keikikane a Davida, o Tamara kona inoa: aloha mai la o Amenona ke keikikane a Davida ia ia.
After this, Absalom the son of David had a beautiful sister, whose name was Tamar; and Amnon the son of David loved her.
2 Pela ka pono ole ana o Amenona, a mai iho la ia no kona kaikuwahine no Tamara; no ka mea, he puupaa ia: aole i hiki pono ia Amenona ke hana aku i kekahi mea ia ia.
Amnon was so troubled that he became sick because of his sister Tamar, for she was a virgin, and it seemed hard to Amnon to do anything to her.
3 He hoalauna ko Amenona, o Ionadaba kona inoa, ke keiki a Simea a ko Davida kaikuaana: a he kanaka maalea loa o Ionadaba.
But Amnon had a friend whose name was Jonadab the son of Shimeah, David’s brother; and Jonadab was a very subtle man.
4 I aku la kela ia ia, O oe ke keiki a ke alii, heaha la kau mea e wiwi ai i kela la i keia la? Aole oe e hai mai ia'u, ea? I mai la o Amenona ia ia, Ua aloha au ia Tamara i ke kaikuwahine o kuu kaikaina o Abesaloma.
He said to him, “Why, son of the king, are you so sad from day to day? Won’t you tell me?” Amnon said to him, “I love Tamar, my brother Absalom’s sister.”
5 I aku la o Ionadaba ia ia, E moe iho oe ma kou wahi moe, a e hoomaimai iho oe: a hele mai kou makuakane e ike ia oe, e i aku oe ia ia, Ea, ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e ae mai oe e hele mai o Tamara kuu kaikuwahine e haawi mai ia i ai na'u, e hoomakaukau ia i ka ai imua o ko'u mau maka, i ike au, a ai iho hoi ma kona lima.
Jonadab said to him, “Lay down on your bed and pretend to be sick. When your father comes to see you, tell him, ‘Please let my sister Tamar come and give me bread to eat, and prepare the food in my sight, that I may see it and eat it from her hand.’”
6 Moe iho la o Amenona, a hoomaimai ia ia iho: a hele mai ke alii e ike ia ia, i aku la o Amenona i ke alii, E, ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e ae mai oe e hele mai o Tamara kuu kaikuwahine, a hana iho na'u i elua wahi popo palaoa imua o kuu mau maka, i ai iho au ma kona lima.
So Amnon lay down and faked being sick. When the king came to see him, Amnon said to the king, “Please let my sister Tamar come and make me a couple of cakes in my sight, that I may eat from her hand.”
7 Alaila, hoouna aku la o Davida io Tamara la ma kona wahi, i aku la, E hele oe ano i ka hale o kou kaikunane o Amenona, a e hana oe i wahi ai nana.
Then David sent home to Tamar, saying, “Go now to your brother Amnon’s house, and prepare food for him.”
8 Hele aku la o Tamara i ka hale o kona kaikunane o Amenona, a e moe ana no ia. Lawe ae la kela i ka palaoa, kawili ae la, a hana iho la i na popo imua o kona maka, a pulehu iho la i ua mau popo la.
So Tamar went to her brother Amnon’s house; and he was lying down. She took dough, kneaded it, made cakes in his sight, and baked the cakes.
9 Lawe ae la ia i ke pa, a ninini aku la ia mau mea imua ona, aole nae ia i ai. I aku la o Amenona, E hele iwaho na kanaka a pau mai o'u aku nei; I hele aku la na kanaka a pau iwaho mai ona aku la.
She took the pan and poured them out before him, but he refused to eat. Amnon said, “Have all men leave me.” Then every man went out from him.
10 I aku la o Amenona ia Tamara, E lawe mai oe i ka ai maloko o ke keena nei i ai iho au ma kou lima, Lawe ae la o Tamara i na popo palaoa ana i hana'i, a halihali mai la iloko o ke keena io Amenona la i kona kaikunane.
Amnon said to Tamar, “Bring the food into the room, that I may eat from your hand.” Tamar took the cakes which she had made, and brought them into the room to Amnon her brother.
11 Aia lawe mai la ia io na la e ai ai, lalau aku la kela ia ia, i aku la ia ia, E, e moe kaua, e kuu kaikuwahine.
When she had brought them near to him to eat, he took hold of her and said to her, “Come, lie with me, my sister!”
12 I mai la kela ia ia, Aole, e kuu kaikunane, mai pue wale mai oe ia'u; no ka mea, aole e pono ke hana pela iwaena o ka Iseraela: mai hana oe i keia mea ino.
She answered him, “No, my brother, do not force me! For no such thing ought to be done in Israel. Don’t you do this folly!
13 A owau la, mahea la uanei au e huna ai i kuu hilahila? A o oe hoi, e like auanei oe me kekahi o ka poe haukae iloko o ka Iseraela. No ia mea ea, e olelo aku oe i ke alii; aole ia e paa ia'u mai ou aku la.
As for me, where would I carry my shame? And as for you, you will be as one of the fools in Israel. Now therefore, please speak to the king; for he will not withhold me from you.”
14 Aole nae ia i hoolohe mai i kona leo; aka, no ka oi o kona ikaika i ko ia la, pue wale aku la kela ia ia, a moe iho la me ia.
However, he would not listen to her voice; but being stronger than she, he forced her and lay with her.
15 Alaila, mains aku la o Amenona ia ia me ka inaina nui loa: a ua oi aku ka inaina ana i inaina aku ai ia ia, i ke aloha ana i aloha mua aku ai ia ia. I aku la o Amenona ia ia, E ala'e, e hoi.
Then Amnon hated her with exceedingly great hatred; for the hatred with which he hated her was greater than the love with which he had loved her. Amnon said to her, “Arise, be gone!”
16 I mai la kela ia ia, Aohe pono; o keia hala o kou kipaku ana ia'u ua oi aku ia i kela mea au i hana iho nei ia'u: aole nae ia i hoolohe aku ia ia.
She said to him, “Not so, because this great wrong in sending me away is worse than the other that you did to me!” But he would not listen to her.
17 Kahea aku la ia i kana kauwa, i ka mea i lawelawe nana, i aku la, E kipaku aku oe ia ia nei iwaho mai o'u aku nei, a e hoopaa i ka puka mahope ona.
Then he called his servant who ministered to him, and said, “Now put this woman out from me, and bolt the door after her.”
18 He kapa onionio maluna ona: pela no i kahikoia'i na kaikamahine puupaa a ke alii. Alaila lawe ae la kana kauwa ia ia iwaho, a hoopaa iho la i ka puka mahope ona.
She had a garment of various colours on her, for the king’s daughters who were virgins dressed in such robes. Then his servant brought her out and bolted the door after her.
19 Lu iho la o Tamara i ka lehuahi maluna o kona poo, haehae ae la i kona kapa onionio maluna ona, kau ae la hoi ia i kona lima maluna o kona poo, a hele aku la e uwe ana.
Tamar put ashes on her head, and tore her garment of various colours that was on her; and she laid her hand on her head and went her way, crying aloud as she went.
20 I aku la o Abesaloma o kona kaikunane ia ia, Ua moe no anei o Amenona kou kaikunane me oe? E noho malie hoi oe, e kuu kaikuwahine, o kou kaikunane kela, mai manao nui oe ma ia mea. A noho mehameha iho la o Tamara ma ka hale o Abesaloma kona kaikunane.
Absalom her brother said to her, “Has Amnon your brother been with you? But now hold your peace, my sister. He is your brother. Don’t take this thing to heart.” So Tamar remained desolate in her brother Absalom’s house.
21 A i ka lohe ana o Davida ke alii ia mau mea a pau, huhu loa iho la ia.
But when King David heard of all these things, he was very angry.
22 Aole i olelo aku o Abesaloma ia Amenona kona kaikuaana i ka pono, aole hoi i ka hewa: no ka mea, ua inaina aku o Abesaloma ia Amenona, i kona pue wale ana ia Tamara i kona kaikuwahine.
Absalom spoke to Amnon neither good nor bad; for Absalom hated Amnon, because he had forced his sister Tamar.
23 A hala ae la na makahiki okoa elua, he aha ako hipa ko Abesaloma ma Baalahazora e kokoke ana me ko Eperaima: a kono aku la o Abesaloma i na keikikane a pau a ke alii e hele ilaila.
After two full years, Absalom had sheep shearers in Baal Hazor, which is beside Ephraim; and Absalom invited all the king’s sons.
24 Hele mai la o Abesaloma i ke alii, i mai la, Aia he aha ako hipa o kau kauwa; ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e hele pu ke alii a me kana poe kauwa me kau kauwa.
Absalom came to the king and said, “See now, your servant has sheep shearers. Please let the king and his servants go with your servant.”
25 I aku la ke alii ia Abesaloma, Aole makou a pau e hele, e kuu keiki, o hookaumaha makou ia oe. Koi mai la kela ia ia; aole nae ia I manao e hele, aka, hoomaikai aku la oia ia ia.
The king said to Absalom, “No, my son, let’s not all go, lest we be burdensome to you.” He pressed him; however he would not go, but blessed him.
26 I mai la o Abesaloma, A i ole, ke noi aku nei au ia oe, o ae mai i kuu kaikuaana ia Amenona e hele pu me makou. I aku la ke alii ia ia, Heaha la kana e hele pu aku ai me oe?
Then Absalom said, “If not, please let my brother Amnon go with us.” The king said to him, “Why should he go with you?”
27 Koi aku la o Abesaloma ia ia, a ae mai la ia e hele pu o Amenona, a o na keikikane a pau a ke alii me ia.
But Absalom pressed him, and he let Amnon and all the king’s sons go with him.
28 Kauoha aku la o Abesaloma i kana poe kauwa, i aku la, E nana oukou, a olioli ka naau o Amenona i ka waina; a olelo aku hoi au ia oukou, E pepehi ia Amenona, alaila e pepehi ia ia, mai makau; aole anei au i kauoha aku? I nui ke aho, a e koa hoi.
Absalom commanded his servants, saying, “Mark now, when Amnon’s heart is merry with wine; and when I tell you, ‘Strike Amnon,’ then kill him. Don’t be afraid. Haven’t I commanded you? Be courageous, and be valiant!”
29 A hana aku la na kauwa a Abesaloma ia Amenona, e like me ka Abesaloma i kauoha ai: alaila ku ae la na keikikane a pau a ke alii, ae aku la kela kanaka keia kanaka maluna o kona hoki, a holo aku la.
The servants of Absalom did to Amnon as Absalom had commanded. Then all the king’s sons arose, and every man got up on his mule and fled.
30 Aia ma ke alanui lakou, haiia mai ia Davida, i ka i ana, Ua pepehi iho la o Abesaloma i na keikikane a pau a ke alii, aole koe kekahi o lakou.
While they were on the way, the news came to David, saying, “Absalom has slain all the king’s sons, and there is not one of them left!”
31 Alaila, ku ae la ke alii, haehae ae la i na kapa ona, a moe iho la ma ka honua, a ku mai la na kauwa ana a pau me ka haehaeia o ko lakou kapa.
Then the king arose, and tore his garments, and lay on the earth; and all his servants stood by with their clothes torn.
32 Olelo mai la o Ionadaba ko keiki a Simea a ko Davida kaikuaana, i mai la, Mai manao oe, e kuu haku, ua pepehi lakou i ka poe kanaka opiopio a pau, i na keikikane a ke alii: o Amenona wale no ka i make, no ka mea, ua ohumuia keia mea ma ka waha o Abesaloma, mai ka la mai i pue wale aku ai kela i kona kaikuwahine ia Tamara.
Jonadab the son of Shimeah, David’s brother, answered, “Don’t let my lord suppose that they have killed all the young men, the king’s sons, for Amnon only is dead; for by the appointment of Absalom this has been determined from the day that he forced his sister Tamar.
33 Nolaila hoi, mai hookaumaha kuu haku ke alii i kona naau ia mea, me ka manao ua make na keiki a pau a ko alii: o Amenona wale no ka i make.
Now therefore don’t let my lord the king take the thing to his heart, to think that all the king’s sons are dead; for only Amnon is dead.”
34 Mahuka aku la o Abesaloma. A o ke kanaka opiopio e kiai ana, alawa ae la na maka ona iluna, ike aku la, aia la, he nui na kanaka e hele mai ana ma ke ala ma ka aoao o ka puu mahope ona.
But Absalom fled. The young man who kept the watch lifted up his eyes and looked, and behold, many people were coming by way of the hillside behind him.
35 I aku la o Ionadaba i ke alii, Aia la, ke hele mai nei na keikikane a ke alii, e like me ka olelo ana a kau kauwa.
Jonadab said to the king, “Behold, the king’s sons are coming! It is as your servant said.”
36 A pau ae la ka olelo ana, hiki mai la na keikikane a ke alii, hookiekie ae la lakou i ko lakou leo, a uwe aku la: uwe nui loa iho la ke alii a me kana poe kauwa a pau.
As soon as he had finished speaking, behold, the king’s sons came, and lifted up their voices and wept. The king also and all his servants wept bitterly.
37 Mahuka aku la o Abesaloma, a hele aku la io Talemai la i ke keiki a Amihuda ke alii no Gesura. Kanikau iho la o [Davida] i kana keiki i kela la i keia la.
But Absalom fled and went to Talmai the son of Ammihur, king of Geshur. David mourned for his son every day.
38 Mahuka aku la o Abesaloma, a hele aku la i Gesura, noho iho la ilaila ekolu makahiki.
So Absalom fled and went to Geshur, and was there three years.
39 Iini loa iho la o Davida ke alii e hele aku io Abesaloma la; no ka mea, ua hooluoluia oia no Amenona, i kona make ana.
King David longed to go out to Absalom, for he was comforted concerning Amnon, since he was dead.
