< Kinohi 20 >

1 HELE aku la o Aberahama mailaila aku ma ka aina kukuluhema, a noho hoi ia mawaena o Kadesa a o Sura, a ma Gerara kona noho malihini ana.
Abraham traveled from there toward the land of the Negev, and lived between Kadesh and Shur. He lived as a foreigner in Gerar.
2 Olelo aku la o Aberahama no kana wahine no Sara, Oia no kuu kaikuwahine: a hoouna mai la o Abimeleka ke alii o Gerara, a lawe aku la ia Sara.
Abraham said about Sarah his wife, "She is my sister." Abimelech king of Gerar sent, and took Sarah.
3 A hele mai la ke Akua io Abimeleka la ma ka moeuhane i ka po, i mai la ia ia, Aia hoi, he kanaka make oe, no ka wahine au i lawe iho nei, no ka mea, he wahine mea kane ia.
But God came to Abimelech in a dream of the night, and said to him, "Look, you are a dead man, because of the woman whom you have taken. For she is a man's wife."
4 Aka, aole i hoopili o Abimeleka ia ia: i aku la oia, E ka Haku, e pepehi mai no hoi oe i ka lahuikanaka hala ole?
Now Abimelech had not come near her. He said, "Lord, will you kill even a righteous nation?
5 Aole anei ia i olelo mai ia'u, O ko'u kaikuwahine ia! a o ka wahine, oia ka i i mai, He kaikunane keia no'u: ma ka manao pono o kuu naau a me ka hala ole o kuu mau lima ka'u i hana aku ai i keia.
Did not he tell me, 'She is my sister?' She, even she herself, said, 'He is my brother.' In the integrity of my heart and the innocence of my hands have I done this."
6 I mai la ke Akua ia ia ma ka moeuhane, Oiaio. ke ike nei au, ua hana aku oe i keia ma ka manao pono o kou naau; a ua hoopaa no hoi au ia oe, i ole oe e hana hewa mai ia'u: nolaila, aole au i ae aku ia oe e hoopa ia ia.
God said to him in the dream, "Yes, I know that in the integrity of your heart you have done this, and I also withheld you from sinning against me. Therefore I did not allow you to touch her.
7 No ia mea hoi, e hoihoi aku na ua kanaka la i kana wahine; no ka mea, he kaula ia, a nana no e pule mai nou, i ola ai oe: a i ole oe e hoihoi mai ia ia, alaila e ike pono oe, he oiaio e make no oe, o oe a me ou poe a pau.
Now therefore, restore the man's wife. For he is a prophet, and he will pray for you, and you will live. If you do not restore her, know for sure that you will die, you, and all who are yours."
8 Ala ae la o Abimeleka i kakahiaka nui, houluulu ae la i kana poe kauwa a pau, a hai aku la i keia mau mea maloko o ko lakou mau pepeiao: a makau loa iho la na kanaka.
Abimelech rose early in the morning, and called all his servants, and told all these things in their ear. The men were very scared.
9 Alaila, kahea mai la o Abimeleka ia Aberahama, i mai la ia ia, Heaha kau i hana mai ai ia makou? Heaha hoi ko'u hala in oe, i hooili mai ai oe iluna iho o'u a o ko'u aupuni ka hewa nui? Ua hana mai oe ia'u i na mea pono ole ke hanaia.
Then Abimelech called Abraham, and said to him, "What have you done to us? How have I sinned against you, that you have brought on me and on my kingdom a great sin? You have done deeds to me that ought not to be done."
10 Ninau mai la o Abimeleka ia Aberahama, Heaha kau i ike mai ai, i hana iho ai oe i keia mea?
Abimelech said to Abraham, "What were you thinking, to do this thing?"
11 I aku la o Aberahama, No ka mea, i iho la au ma kuu naau, He oiaio, aole ka makau i ke Akua ma keia wahi; a e pepehi mai auanei lakou ia'u no kuu wahine.
Abraham said, "Because I thought, 'Surely the fear of God is not in this place, so they will kill me because of my wife.'
12 He oiaio hoi, o ko'u kaikuwahine no ia, ke kaikamahine a kuu makuakane, aole nae ia ke kaikamahine a kuu makuwahine, a lilo mai la ia i wahine na'u.
Besides, she is indeed my sister, the daughter of my father, but not the daughter of my mother; and she became my wife.
13 A i ka manawa a ke Akua i hooanwana mai ai ia'u mai ka hale o ko'u makuakane mai, i aku la au ia ia nei, Eia kou lokomaikai au e hoike mai ai ia'u: i na wahi a pau e hiki aku ai kana, e olelo aku oe no'u, O ko'u kaikunane ia.
It happened, when God caused me to wander from my father's house, that I said to her, 'This is your kindness which you shall show to me. Everywhere that we go, say of me, "He is my brother."'"
14 Lawe ae la o Abimeleka i na hipa, me na bipikane, i na kauwakane a me na kauwawahine, a haawi mai la ia Aberahama, a hoihoi mai la oia ia Sara kana wahine nana.
Abimelech took sheep and cattle, male servants and female servants, and gave them to Abraham, and restored Sarah, his wife, to him.
15 I mai la o Abimeleka, Aia hoi, imua ou ko'u aina, e noho ma kahi i makemake ai oe.
Abimelech said, "Look, my land is before you. Dwell where it pleases you."
16 I mai la hoi oia ia Sara, Aia hoi, ua haawi iho nei au i na apana kala he tausani na kou kaikunane: aia hoi, he mea pale maka ia nou imua o ka poe a pau me oe, a me na mea a pau: pela oia i aoia mai ai.
To Sarah he said, "Look, I have given your brother a thousand pieces of silver. Look, it is to cover the offense against you before all who are with you. In front of all you are vindicated."
17 Pule aku la o Aberahama i ke Akua: a hoola mai la ke Akua ia Abimeleka, me kana wahine a me kana poe kauwawahine; a hanaukeiki lakou.
Abraham prayed to God, and God healed Abimelech, and his wife, and his female servants, and they bore children.
18 No ka mea, ua papaniia e Iehova na opu o na wahine a pau o ka hale o Abimeleka, no Sara ka wahine a Aberahama.
For God had made every woman infertile in the household of Abimelech, because of Sarah, Abraham's wife.
