< II Samuela 21 >
1 I LAILA no i na la o Davida na makahiki wi ekolu, i kela makahiki i keia makahiki: a ninau aku la Davida ia Iehova. I mai la o Iehova, No Saula ia, a no kona ohana koko; no ka mea, ua pepehi oia i ko Gibeona.
And there was a famine in the days of David three years, year after year; and David sought the face of Jehovah. And Jehovah said, It is for Saul, and for his bloody house, because he put to death the Gibeonites.
2 Kii aku la ke alii i ko Gibeona, i aku la ia lakou; (a o ko Gibeona aole lakou no na mamo a Iseraela, no ke koena lakou o ka poe Amori; a ua hoohiki aku na mamo a Iseraela ia lakou: a manao iho la o Saula e pepehi ia lakou no kona manao ikaika i na mamo a Iseraela laua o Iuda.)
And the king called the Gibeonites, and spoke to them (now the Gibeonites were not of the sons of Israel, but of the remnant of the Amorites, and the sons of Israel had sworn to them, and yet Saul sought to kill them in his zeal for the sons of Israel and Judah),
3 I aku la o Davida i ko Gibeona, Heaha ka'u e hana aku ai no oukou? pehea hoi au e hookalahala aku ai, i hoomaikai mai oukou i ka aina a Iehova i haawi mai ai?
and David said to the Gibeonites, What shall I do for you? And with what shall I make atonement that ye may bless the inheritance of Jehovah?
4 I mai la ko Gibeona ia ia, Aole makou e makemake i ke kala, aole hoi i ke gula no Saula a no kana ohana; aole hoi oe e pepehi i kekahi kanaka iloko o ka Iseraela no makou. I aku la kela, O ka mea a oukou e olelo mai ai, oia ka'u e hana aku ai no oukou.
And the Gibeonites said to him, It is no matter of silver or gold between us and Saul or his house, neither is it for us to put any man to death in Israel. And he said, What ye shall say, that I will do for you.
5 I mai la lakou i ke alii, O ke kanaka nana makou i hoopau aku, a i noonoo e luku mai ia makou, i noho ole ai makou ma kekahi palena aina o ka Iseraela,
And they said to the king, The man who consumed us, and who devised against us, that we should be destroyed from remaining in any of the borders of Israel,
6 E haawiia mai na kanaka ehiku o kana mau keiki ia makou, a e kau aku makou ia lakou iluna no Iehova ma Gibea no Saula o ka mea a Iehova i wae ai. I aku la ke alii, E haawi no wau.
let seven men of his sons be delivered to us, and we will hang them up to Jehovah in Gibeah of Saul, the chosen of Jehovah. And the king said, I will give them.
7 Aka, kala aku la ke alii ia Mepiboseta ke keiki a Ionatana ke keiki a Saula, no ka hoohiki ana ia Iehova iwaena o laua, iwaena o Davida laua o Ionatana ke keiki a Saula.
But the king spared Mephibosheth, the son of Jonathan the son of Saul, because of Jehovah's oath that was between them, between David and Jonathan the son of Saul.
8 A lawe aku la ke alii i na keikikane elua a Rizepa ke kaikamahine a Aia, i na mea ana i hanau ai na Saula, o Aremoni a o Mepiboseta; a me na keikikane elima a Mikala ke kaikamahine a Saula, na mea ana i hanai ai na Aderiela ke keiki a Barezilai no Meholata.
But the king took the two sons of Rizpah the daughter of Aiah whom she bore to Saul, Armoni and Mephibosheth, and the five sons of Merab the daughter of Saul whom she bore to Adriel the son of Barzillai the Meholathite.
9 A haawi aku la oia ia lakou i na lima o ko Gibeona, a kaawe aku la lakou ia poe maluna o ka puu imua o Iehova; a hina pu iho la lakou a ehiku, a make iho la i na la o ka ohi ai ana, i na la mua o ka ohi bale ana.
And he delivered them into the hands of the Gibeonites. And they hanged them in the mountain before Jehovah, and they fell all seven together. And they were put to death in the days of harvest, in the first days, at the beginning of barley harvest.
10 Lawe ae la o Rizepa ke kaikamahine a Aia i ke kapa inoino, a halii iho la nona maluna o ka pohaku nui, mai ka wa mua o ka ohi bale ana a hiki i ka wa i haule mai ai ka ua mai ka lani mai maluna iho o lakou, a kiai iho la ia i kau ole ai na manu o ka lewa maluna o lakou i ke ao, aole hoi na holoholona o ke kula i ka po.
And Rizpah the daughter of Aiah took sackcloth, and spread it for her upon the rock, from the beginning of harvest until water was poured upon them from heaven. And she neither allowed the birds of the heaven to rest on them by day, nor the beasts of the field by night.
11 A ua haiia aku ia Davida ka mea a Rizepa ke kaikamahine a Aia, ka haiawahine a Saula i hana'i.
And it was told David what Rizpah the daughter of Aiah, the concubine of Saul, had done.
12 Hele aku la o Davida, a lawe mai la ia i na iwi o Saula a me na iwi o Ionatana kana keiki mai na kanaka o Iabesagileada mai, ka poe nana i lawe malu ia laua mai ke alanui o Betesana mai, kahi a ka poe Pilisetia i kau ai ia laua, i ka wa i pepehi ai ka poe Pilisetia ia Saula i Gileboa.
And David went and took the bones of Saul and the bones of Jonathan his son from the men of Jabesh-gilead, who had stolen them from the street of Beth-shan where the Philistines had hanged them in the day that the Philistines killed Saul in Gilboa,
13 Lawe mai la ia i na iwi o Saula a me na iwi o Ionatana kana keiki mai laila mai; a hoiliili ae la lakou i na iwi o ka poe i kaaweia.
and he brought up from there the bones of Saul and the bones of Jonathan his son, and they gathered the bones of those who were hanged.
14 Kanu aku la lakou i na iwi o Saula a o Ionatana kana keiki ma Zela ma ka aina o ka Beniamina, maloko o ka halekupapau no Kisa no kona makuakane: a hana aku la lakou i na mea a pau a ke alii i kena aku ai. A mahope iho ua hoomaliuia'ku ke Akua no ka aina.
And they buried the bones of Saul and Jonathan his son in the country of Benjamin in Zela, in the sepulcher of Kish his father. And they performed all that the king commanded. And after that God was entreated for the land.
15 A kaua hou mai la ko Pilisetia me ka Iseraela; iho aku la o Davida me kana poe kauwa, a kaua aku la i ko Pilisetia: a paupauaho iho la o Davida.
And the Philistines had war again with Israel. And David went down, and his servants with him, and fought against the Philistines. And David grew faint,
16 A o Isebi-benoba no na keiki a ke kanaka nunui, o kona ihe, ekolu haneri sekela keleawe ia ma ke kaupaona ana, ua kaei oia i ka pahikaua hou, a manao iho la oia e pepehi ia Davida.
and Ishbibenob, who was of the sons of the giant, the weight of whose spear was three hundred shekels of brass in weight, he being girded with a new sword, thought to have slain David.
17 Kokua mai la o Abisai ke keiki a Zeruia ia ia, hahau aku la ia i ke kanaka no Pilisetia, a pepehi iho la ia ia. Alaila papa mai la na kanaka ia Davida, i mai la, Mai hele hou aku oe me makou i ke kaua, i kinai ole iho ai oe i ke kukui no ka Iseraela.
But Abishai the son of Zeruiah helped him, and smote the Philistine, and killed him. Then the men of David swore to him, saying, Thou shall no more go out with us to battle, that thou not quench the lamp of Israel.
18 A mahope iho o keia manawa, he kaua hou me ko Pilisetia ma Goba; a pepehi iho la o Sibekai no Husata ia Sapa no na keiki a ke kanaka nunui.
And it came to pass after this, that there was again war with the Philistines at Gob. Then Sibbecai the Hushathite killed Saph, who was of the sons of the giant.
19 He kaua hou no hoi ma Goba me ko Pilisetia, ilaila i pepehi iho ai o Elehanana ke keiki a Iaareoregima no Betelehema i ke kaikaina o Golia no Gata, o ke au o kona ihe, ua like ia me ka laau o ka mea ulana lole.
And there was again war with the Philistines at Gob. And Elhanan the son of Jaareoregim the Bethlehemite killed Goliath the Gittite, the staff of whose spear was like a weaver's beam.
20 A he kaua hou ma Gata, ilaila he kanaka nunui me na manamanalima eono ma kela lima ma keia lima, a me na manamanawawae eono no ma kela wawae ma keia wawae, he iwakaluakumamaha i ka helu ana: ua hanau hoi ia na ke kanaka nunui.
And there was again war at Gath, where there was a man of great stature who had on every hand six fingers, and on every foot six toes, twenty-four in number, and he also was born to the giant.
21 I kona hoino ana mai i ka Iseraela, pepehi iho la o Ionatana ke keiki a Simea a ke kaikuaana a Davida ia ia.
And when he defied Israel, Jonathan the son of Shimei, David's brother, killed him.
22 Ua hanau keia poe eha na ke kanaka nunui ma Gata, a ua haule lakou ma ka lima o Davida, a me ka lima hoi o kana poe kauwa.
These four were born to the giant in Gath, and they fell by the hand of David, and by the hand of his servants.
