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 all the tribes of Israel came to David at Hebron and spoke, saying, “Behold, we are your bone and your flesh.
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.
In times past, when Saul was king over us, it was you who led Israel out and in. The LORD said to you, ‘You will be shepherd of my people Israel, and you will be prince 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.
So all the elders of Israel came to the king to Hebron, and King David made a covenant with them in Hebron before the LORD; and they anointed David 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.
David was thirty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned forty years.
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-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.
The king and his men went to Jerusalem against the Jebusites, the inhabitants of the land, who spoke to David, saying, “The blind and the lame will keep you out of here,” thinking, “David can’t come in here.”
7 Aka, hoopio ae la o Davida i ka pakaua o Ziona, oia hoi ke kulanakauhale o Davida.
Nevertheless David took the stronghold of Zion. This is David’s city.
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.
David said on that day, “Whoever strikes the Jebusites, let him go up to the watercourse and strike those lame and blind, who are hated by David’s soul.” Therefore they say, “The blind and the lame can’t 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.
David lived in the stronghold, and called it David’s city. David built around from Millo and inward.
10 Mahuahua ae la o Davida a nui loa, me ia pu no hoi o Iehova ke Akua o na kaua.
David grew greater and greater, for the LORD, the God of Armies, 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.
Hiram king of Tyre sent messengers to David, with cedar trees, carpenters, and masons; and they built David a house.
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.
David perceived that the LORD had established him king over Israel, and that he had exalted his kingdom for his people Israel’s sake.
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.
David took more concubines and wives for himself out of Jerusalem, after he had come from Hebron; and more sons and daughters were born to David.
14 Eia na inoa o ka poe i hanau nana ma Ierusalema, o Samua, o Sobaba, o Natana, a o Solomona,
These are the names of those who were born to him in Jerusalem: Shammua, Shobab, Nathan, Solomon,
15 O Ibehana hoi me Elisua, o Nepega a me Iapia,
Ibhar, Elishua, Nepheg, Japhia,
16 O Elisama, o Eliada, a me Elipaleta.
Elishama, Eliada, 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.
When the Philistines heard that they had anointed David king over Israel, all the Philistines went up to seek David, but David heard about it and went down to the stronghold.
18 Hele mai la hoi ka poe Pilisetia, a hoomoana aku la ma ke awawa o Repaima.
Now the Philistines had come and spread themselves 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.
David inquired of the LORD, saying, “Shall I go up against the Philistines? Will you deliver them into my hand?” The LORD said to David, “Go up; for I will certainly deliver the Philistines into your 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.
David came to Baal Perazim, and David struck them there. Then he said, “The LORD has broken my enemies before me, like the breach of waters.” Therefore he called the name of that place Baal Perazim.
21 Haalele lakou i na kii o lakou ilaila, a lawe aku la o Davida a me na kanaka ona ia mau mea.
They left their images there, and David and his men took them away.
22 Pii hou mai la ka poe Pilisetia, a hoomoana iho la ma ke awawa o Repaima.
The Philistines came up yet again and spread themselves 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.
When David inquired of the LORD, he said, “You shall not go up. Circle around behind them, and attack them in front of 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.
When you hear the sound of marching in the tops of the mulberry trees, then stir yourself up; for then the LORD has gone out before you to strike the army 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.
David did so, as the LORD commanded him, and struck the Philistines all the way from Geba to Gezer.
