< II Samuela 5 >

1 A LAILA hele mai la na ohana a pau o ka Iseraela io Davida la i Heberona, a olelo mai la lakou, Eia hoi, hookahi no ko kakou iwi a me ka io.
Then came all the tribes of Israel to David unto Hebron, and spoke, saying, Behold us, thy bone and thy flesh are we;
2 I ka wa mamua no hoi, ia Saula i alii ai maluna o kakou, o oe no ka mea nana i alakai aku a i alakai mai i ka Iseraela; i mai la hoi o Iehova ia oe, E hanai oe i ko'u poe kanaka i ka Iseraela, a e lilo oe i luna no ka Iseraela.
Already yesterday, and even before, when Saul was king over us, thou wast the one that led out and brought in Israel: And the Lord said to thee, Thou shalt indeed feed my people Israel, and thou shalt be a chief over Israel.
3 Pela na lunakahiko a pau o ka Iseraela i hele mai ai i ke alii ma Heberona; a hoopaa iho la ke alii o Davida i berita me lakou ma Heberona imua o Iehova: a poui iho la lakou ia Davida i alii no ka Iseraela.
Thus came all the elders of Israel to the king unto Hebron; and king David made a covenant with them in Hebron before the Lord: and they anointed David as king over Israel.
4 He kanakolu na makahiki o Davida, i kona wa i lilo ai i alii, a nohoalii iho la ia i na makahiki he kanaha.
Thirty years was David old when he became king, [and] forty years he reigned.
5 Ehiku mau makahiki a me na malama keu eono i nohoalii iho ai oia ma Heberona maluna o ka Iuda; a ma Ierusalema i nohoalii iho ai oia maluna o ka Iseraela a pau a me ka Iuda i na makahiki he kanakolu a me kumamakolu.
In Hebron he reigned over Judah seven years and six months: and in Jerusalem he reigned thirty and three years over all Israel and Judah.
6 Hele aku la ke alii a me na kauaka ona i Ierusalema i ka poe Iebusi, na kamaaina o ia wahi. Olelo mai la lakou ia Davida, i ka i ana mai, Ina aole oe e lawe aku i ka poe makapo a me ka poe oopa, aole no oe e komo mai ia nei: e manao ana lakou aole e komo o Davida ilaila.
And the king and his men went to Jerusalem against the Jebusites, the inhabitants of the land; who said unto David, as followeth, Thou shalt not come in hither, except thou [first] remove away the blind and the lame: meaning, David cannot come in hither.
7 Aka, hoopio ae la o Davida i ka pakaua o Ziona, oia hoi ke kulanakauhale o Davida.
Nevertheless David captured the strong-hold of Zion; the same is the city of David.
8 I aku la Davida ia la, O na mea pepehi i ka Iebusi, e hele lakou i ke kahawai e luku i ka poe oopa a me ka poe makapo, i ka poe i inainaia e ko Davida naau; no ka mea, ua olelo na mea makapo a me na mea oopa, Aole ia e hiki maloko o ka hale.
And David said on that day, Whosoever will smite the Jebusites, and reach the aqueduct and the lame and the blind, that are hateful to David's soul, —Wherefore people usually say, The blind and the lame shall not come into the house.
9 Noho iho la o Davida iloko o ka pakaua, a kapa iho la ia wahi, O ke kulanakauhale o Davida: a kukulu iho la o Davida i na hale ma Milo mawaho a maloko.
And David dwelt in the fort, and he called it “The City of David.” And David built [it] round about from the Millo and inward.
10 Mahuahua ae la o Davida a nui loa, me ia pu no hoi o Iehova ke Akua o na kaua.
And David went on, and became greater and greater, and the Lord the God of hosts was with him.
11 A o Hirama ke alii o Turo, hoouna mai la ia i na elele io Davida la, me na laau kedera, a me na kamana, a me na kalaipohaku; a hana iho la lakou i hale no Davida.
And Hiram the king of Tyre sent messengers to David, and cedar-trees, and carpenters, and stone-masons: and they built a house for David.
12 Ike pono iho la o Davida, ua hookupaa iho no o Iehova ia ia i alii maluna o ka Iseraela, a ua hookiekie ae ia i kona aupuni no kona poe kanaka no ka Iseraela.
And David felt conscious that the Lord has established him as king over Israel, and that he had exalted his kingdom for the sake of his people Israel.
13 Lawe hou ae la o Davida i na haiawahine a me na wahine hoi nana no Ierusalema, mahope iho o kona hele ana mai mai Heberona mai: a hanau mai la na keikikane hou a me na kaikamahine hou na Davida.
And David took yet more concubines and wives out of Jerusalem, after he was come from Hebron; and there were born to David yet [more] sons and daughters.
14 Eia na inoa o ka poe i hanau nana ma Ierusalema, o Samua, o Sobaba, o Natana, a o Solomona,
And these are the names of those that were born unto him in Jerusalem: Shammua', and Shobab, and Nathan, and Solomon,
15 O Ibehana hoi me Elisua, o Nepega a me Iapia,
And Yibchar, and Elishua', and Nepheg, and Yaphia',
16 O Elisama, o Eliada, a me Elipaleta.
And Elishama', and Elyada', and Eliphelet.
17 A lohe ae la ka poe Pilisetia, ua poni iho lakou ia Davida i alii maluna o ka Iseraela; pii nui mai la na Pilisetia a pau e imi ia Davida; a lohe ae la Davida, a iho iho la ia ma ka pakaua.
But when the Philistines heard that the people had anointed David as king over Israel, all the Philistines came up to seek David: and David heard of it, and went down to the strong-hold.
18 Hele mai la hoi ka poe Pilisetia, a hoomoana aku la ma ke awawa o Repaima.
The Philistines also came and spread themselves out in the valley of Rephaim.
19 Ninau aku la o Davida ia Iehova, i aku la, E pii aku anei au i ka poe Pilisetia? E hoolilo mai hoi oe ia lakou i kuu lima? I mai la o Iehova ia Davida, E pii aku oe, no ka mea, e oiaio no e noolilo au i ka poe Pilisetia i kou lima.
And David asked counsel of the Lord, saying, shall I go up against the Philistines? wilt thou deliver them into my hand? And the Lord said unto David, Go up; for I will certainly deliver the Philistines into thy hand.
20 Hele aku la o Davida i Baala-perazima, a luku aku la o Davida ia lakou malaila, i iho la ia, Ua poha aku o Iehova maluna o ko'u poe enemi, e like me ka poha ana o ka wai. Nolaila, kapa aku la ia i ka inoa o ia wahi, o Baala-perazima.
And David came to Ba'al-perazim, and David smote them there, and said, The Lord hath broken down my enemies before me, as a breach [is made by] water. Wherefore he called the name of that place Ba'al-perazim.
21 Haalele lakou i na kii o lakou ilaila, a lawe aku la o Davida a me na kanaka ona ia mau mea.
And they left behind there their idols, and David and his men burnt them.
22 Pii hou mai la ka poe Pilisetia, a hoomoana iho la ma ke awawa o Repaima.
And the Philistines came up once again, and spread themselves out in the valley of Rephaim.
23 A ninau aku la o Davida ia Iehova, i mai la kela, Aole oe e pii pono aku; aka, e hoopuni ae oe mahope mai o lakou, i kahi e kupono ana i na laau silika.
And when David asked counsel of the Lord, he said, Thou shalt not go up; but turn about and fall in the rear of them, and come upon them opposite to the mulberry-trees.
24 A lohe oe i ka halulu o ka hele ana ma na welau o na laau silika, alaila oe e lalelale: no ka mea, alaila e hele aku ana o Iehova imua ou e pepehi aku i na Pilisetia.
And it shall be, when thou hearest the sound of walking on the top of the mulberry-trees, that thou shalt then bestir thyself; for then will the Lord go out before thee, to smite in the camp of the Philistines.
25 Hana aku la o Davida e like me ka Iehova i kauoha mai ai ia ia; a luku aku la ia i na Pilisetia mai Geba aku a hiki aku oe i Gazera.
And David did so, as the Lord had commanded him; and he smote the Philistines from Geba' until thou comest to Gezer.
