< II Samuela 1 >
1 MAHOPE iho o ka make ana o Saula, a ua hoi hou mai o Davida mai ka luku ana i ka Amaleka, a noho iho o Davida elua la i Zikelaga;
It happened after the death of Saul, that David returned from the slaughter of the Amalekites, and he stayed two days in Ziklag.
2 A i ke kolu o ka la, aia hoi, he kanaka i hele mai, mai ke kahua kaua, mai Saula mai, me kona kapa i haehaeia, a me ka lepo maluna o kona poo; a hiki aku la ia io Davida la, moe iho la ia ma ka honua, a hoomaikai aku la.
It happened on the third day, that, look, a man came out of the camp from Saul, with his clothes torn and dirt on his head. And it came about when he came to David that he fell to the ground and paid homage.
3 I aku la o Davida ia ia, Mai hea mai oe i hele mai nei? I mai la kela ia ia, Ua pakele mai nei au mai ke kahua kaua mai o ka Iseraela.
David said to him, "Where do you come from?" He said to him, "I have escaped out of the camp of Israel."
4 I aku la o Davida ia ia, Pehea kela mea? Ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e hai mai ia'u. I mai la kela, Ua hee aku la na kanaka mai ke kaua aku, a ua haule na kanaka he nui loa a make: ua make hoi o Saula a me kana keikikane o Ionatana.
David said to him, "How did it go? Please tell me." He answered, "The people have fled from the battle, and many of the people also have fallen and are dead; and Saul and Jonathan his son are dead also."
5 I aku la o Davida i ke kanaka opiopio nana i hai mai ia ia, Pehea kau ike ana, ua make o Saula a me Ionatana kana keiki?
David said to the young man who had told him this, "How do you know that Saul and Jonathan his son are dead?"
6 I mai la ua kanaka opiopio la nana i hai mai ia ia, A i ko'u hiki wale ana aku maluna o ka puu o Gileboa, aia hoi, e kalele ana o Saula maluna iho o kona ihe; a hahai ikaika mai la na halekaa a me na hoohololio mahope ona.
Then the young man replied, "I happened to be on Mount Gilboa and saw Saul leaning on his spear. And look, the chariots and the horsemen were closing in on him.
7 Alawa ae la ia i hope, ike mai la ia'u, a kahea mai la ia'u: i aku la au, Eia no wau.
When he looked behind him, he saw me, and called to me. I answered, 'Here I am.'
8 Ninau mai kela ia'u, Owai oe? Olelo aku la au, He Amaleka wau.
He said to me, 'Who are you?' I answered him, 'I am an Amalekite.'
9 I hou mai la ia ia'u, Ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e ku oe maluna iho o'u, a e pepehi mai ia'u; no ka mea, ke kau mai nei ka poniuniu maluna iho o'u, a ke koe nei ke ola okoa iloko o'u.
He said to me, 'Please stand beside me, and kill me; for anguish has taken hold of me, yet there is life in me still.'
10 A ku iho la au maluna ona, a pepehi iho la ia ia; no ka mea, ua ike pono au, aole ia e ola mahope iho o kona haule ana: lawe ae la no au i ka papale alii maluna o kona poo, a me ke kupee ma kona lima, a ua halihali mai nei au ia mau mea i kuu haku.
So I stood beside him, and killed him, because I was sure that he could not live after he had fallen. Then I took the crown that was on his head, and the bracelet that was on his arm, and have brought them here to my lord."
11 Alaila, lalau iho la o Davida i kona kapa, a haehae iho la, a pela no hoi na kanaka a pau me ia.
Then David grabbed his clothes and tore them, and all the men with him did the same.
12 Kanikau aku la lakou me ka uwe aku, a hookeai iho la lakou a hiki i ke ahiahi, no Saula a no Ionatana kana keiki, a no ka poe kanaka o Iehova, a no ka ohana a Iseraela; no ka mea, ua haule lakou i ka pahikaua.
They mourned, and wept, and fasted until evening, for Saul, and for Jonathan his son, and for the people of the LORD, and for the house of Israel; because they had fallen by the sword.
13 Ninau aku la o Davida i ke kanaka opiopio nana i hai mai ia ia, Nohea oe? I mai la kela, He keiki au na kekahi malihini, he Amaleka.
David said to the young man who had told him, "Where are you from?" He answered, "I am the son of a foreigner, an Amalekite."
14 I aku la o Davida ia ia, Heaha kou mea i makau ole ai i ka o aku i kou lima e pepehi i ka Iehova mea i poniia?
David said to him, "How is it that you were not afraid to put forth your hand to destroy the LORD's anointed?"
15 Kahea aku la o Davida i kekahi kanaka opiopio, i aku la, E neenee aku oe, a e lele aku maluna ona. Pepehi aku la kela ia ia, a make iho la ia.
David called one of the young men, and said, "Go near, and fall on him." He struck him, so that he died.
16 I aku la o Davida ia ia, Maluna o kou poo iho ke koko ou: no ka mea, ua ahewa mai la kou waha iho ia oe, i ka i ana, Ua pepehi no au i ka Iehova mea i poniia.
David said to him, "Your blood is on your head, for your mouth has testified against you, saying, 'I have killed the LORD's anointed.'"
17 Kanikau aku la o Davida i keia kanikau ana ia Saula a ia Ionatana kana keiki.
And David lamented with this lamentation over Saul and over Jonathan his son,
18 (Kauoha aku la hoi ia e ao i na mamo a Iuda i ke kakaka: aia hoi ua kakauia maloko o ka buke a Iasera.)
and said it should be taught to the people of Judah. Look, it is written in the book of Jashar.
19 O ka nani o ka Iseraela, ua pepehiia oia maluna o na wahi kiekie ou; Kai ka haule ana o ka poe ikaika?
"Your glory, Israel, is slain on your high places. How the mighty have fallen.
20 Mai hai aku ia mea ma Gata, Mai kala aku hoi ia ma na alanui o Asekelona; O hauoli na kaikamahine a ka poe Pilisetia, O haanui hoi na kaikamahine a ka poe okipoepoe ole ia.
Do not tell it in Gath. Do not publish it in the streets of Ashkelon, lest the daughters of the Philistines rejoice, lest the daughters of the uncircumcised celebrate.
21 E na puu o Gileboa, aole make hau, Aole hoi he ua maluna iho o oukou; Aole hoi na mahinaai o na hua mua: Ilaila kahi i hooleiia'ku ai ka palekaua o ka mea ikaika, Ka palekaua o Saula i poni ole ia i ka aila.
You mountains of Gilboa, let there be no dew nor rain on you, nor fields of offerings. For there the shield of the mighty was dishonored. The shield of Saul, no longer anointed with oil.
22 Mai ke koko ae o ka poe i make, A mai ka momona ae o ka poe ikaika, Aole i hoi ihope ke kakaka o Ionatana, Aole hoi i hoi nele mai ka pahikaua a Saula.
From the blood of the slain, from the fat of the mighty, Jonathan's bow did not retreat. Saul's sword did not return empty.
23 Ua aloha no, a ua oluolu hoi o Saula a o Ionatana i ko laua ola ana, A i ko laua make ana, aole laua i hookaawaleia. Ua oi aku ko laua mama i ko na aeto, A me ko laua ikaika i ko na liona.
Saul and Jonathan, beloved and lovely, not separated. Lovely in their life, and in their death they were not separated. They were swifter than eagles. They were stronger than lions.
24 E na kaikamahine o ka Iseraela, e kanikau aku oukou ia Saula, Nana oukou i hoaahu aku i ke kapa ula, a me na mea nani: Nana i hoonani i ko oukou kapa i ke gula.
You daughters of Israel, weep over Saul, who clothed you luxuriously in scarlet, who put ornaments of gold on your clothing.
25 Kai ka haule ana o ka poe ikaika iwaena o ke kaua ana! E Ionatana, ua pepehiia oe maluna o na wahi kiekie ou.
How are the mighty fallen in the midst of the battle. Jonathan is slain on your high places.
26 Ua ehaeha loa au nou, e kuu hoahanau, e Ionatana: He oluolu loa oe ia'u, he kupanaha kou aloha ia'u, E oi mai ana i ke aloha o na wahine.
I grieve for you, my brother. You have been very pleasant to me. Your love for me was a wonder, more than the love of women.
27 Kai ka haule ana o ka poe ikaika, A me ka pau ana o na mea kaua!
How are the mighty fallen, and the weapons of war perished."
