Kinohi 24
1 U A elemakule o Aberahama, ua nui no hoi kona mau la, a ua hoopomaikai o Iehova ia Aberahama i na mea a pau.
And Abraham was old, [and] well stricken in age: and Jehovah had blessed Abraham in all things.
2 I aku la o Aberahama i ke kauwa kahiko o kona hale, i ka mea ia ia ka malama i kona mea a pau, E, e kau mai oe i kou lima malalo iho o ko'u uha:
And Abraham said unto his servant, the elder of his house, that ruled over all that he had, Put, I pray thee, thy hand under my thigh:
3 A na'u no e haawi aku ia oe e hoohiki ma o Iehova la, ma ke Akua o ka lani, a ke Akua o ka honua; i lawe ole ai oe i wahine na ka'u keiki na Isaaka, no na kaikamahine a ko Kanaana ka poe a'u o noho nei iwaena.
and I will make thee swear by Jehovah, the God of heaven and the God of the earth, that thou wilt not take a wife for my son of the daughters of the Canaanites, among whom I dwell:
4 Aka, e hele aku oe i ko'u aina, a i ko'u poe hoahanau, a e lawe mai i wahine na ka'u keiki na Isaaka.
but thou shalt go unto my country, and to my kindred, and take a wife for my son Isaac.
5 I mai la ua kauwa nei ia ia, Ina paha aole e makemake ka wahine e hahai mai ia'u a hiki i keia aina: e pono anei ia'u e kai aku i kau keiki i ka aina au i hele mai nei?
And the servant said unto him, Peradventure the woman will not be willing to follow me unto this land: must I needs bring thy son again unto the land from whence thou camest?
6 Papa aku la o Aberahama ia ia, E ao oe, mai kai aku oe i ka'u keiki malaila.
And Abraham said unto him, Beware thou that thou bring not my son thither again.
7 Na Iehova ke Akua o ka lani, nana au i lawe, mai ka hale mai o ko'u makuakane, a mai ka aina mai o ko'u poe hoahanau, a olelo mai ia'u, a hoohiki mai no hoi ia'u, i ka i ana mai, E haawi auanei au i keia aina no kau poe mamo; nana no e hoouna aku i kona anela mamua ou, a e lawe mai oe i wahine na ka'u keiki mailaila mai.
Jehovah, the God of heaven, who took me from my father’s house, and from the land of my nativity, and who spake unto me, and who sware unto me, saying, Unto thy seed will I give this land; he will send his angel before thee, and thou shalt take a wife for my son from thence.
8 A i makemake ole ka wahine e hahai mai ia oe, alaila e hala ole oe i keia hoohiki ana no'u: aka, mai kai aku oe i ka'u keiki ilaila.
And if the woman be not willing to follow thee, then thou shalt be clear from this my oath; only thou shalt not bring my son thither again.
9 A kau iho la ke kauwa i kona lima malalo iho o ka uha o Aberahama kona haku, a hoohiki iho la nona ma ia mea.
And the servant put his hand under the thigh of Abraham his master, and sware to him concerning this matter.
10 Lalau aku la ua kauwa la i na kamelo o kona haku he umi, no ka mea, ma kona lima ka waiwai a pau o kona haku: ku ae la ia, a hele aku la i Mesopotamia, i ke kulanakauhale o Nahora.
And the servant took ten camels, of the camels of his master, and departed, having all goodly things of his master’s in his hand: and he arose, and went to Mesopotamia, unto the city of Nahor.
11 Hookukuli iho la ia i kona mau kamelo mawaho o ke kulanakauhale, ma ka luawai, i ke ahiahi, i ka manawa e hele mai ai na wahine e huki wai.
And he made the camels to kneel down without the city by the well of water at the time of evening, the time that women go out to draw water.
12 I aku la ia, E Iehova ke Akua o kuu haku o Aberahama, ke pule aku nei au ia oe, e hoopomaikai mai oe ia'u i keia la, a e lokomaikai mai oe i kuu haku ia Aberahama,
And he said, O Jehovah, the God of my master Abraham, send me, I pray thee, good speed this day, and show kindness unto my master Abraham.
13 Eia au ke ku nei ma ka luawai; a e hele mai ana na kaikamahine a na kanaka o ke kulanakauhale e huki i ka wai:
Behold, I am standing by the fountain of water; and the daughters of the men of the city are coming out to draw water:
14 E ae mai oe, o ke kaikamahine a'u e olelo aku ai, Ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e kuu iho oe i kou bakeke, i inu ai au; a e i mai oia, E inu oe, a e hoohainu hoi au i na kamelo: oia no ka mea au i koho ai na kau kauwa na Isaaka: ilaila au e ike ai i kau lokomaikai ana mai i kuu haku.
and let it come to pass, that the damsel to whom I shall say, Let down thy pitcher, I pray thee, that I may drink; and she shall say, Drink, and I will give thy camels drink also: let the same be she that thou hast appointed for thy servant Isaac; and thereby shall I know that thou hast showed kindness unto my master.
15 Aole ia i hooki iho i kana olelo ana, Aia hoi, hiki mai la o Rebeka, ka mea i hanau na Betuela, na ke keikikane a Mileka a ka wahine a Nahora, ko Aberahama kaikuaana, me kona bakeke maluna o kona poohiwi.
And it came to pass, before he had done speaking, that, behold, Rebekah came out, who was born to Bethuel the son of Milcah, the wife of Nahor, Abraham’s brother, with her pitcher upon her shoulder.
16 Ua maikai ka maka o ua kaikamahine la ke nanaia'ku, he wahine puupaa, aole i ikeia e kekahi kane: iho iho la ia ma ka luawai, hoopiha iho la i kona bakeke, a hoi mai la iluna.
And the damsel was very fair to look upon, a virgin, neither had any man known her: and she went down to the fountain, and filled her pitcher, and came up.
17 Holo aku la ua kauwa la e halawai me ia, i aku la, E, ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e ho mai no'u i wahi wai o kou bakeke e inu.
And the servant ran to meet her, and said, Give me to drink, I pray thee, a little water from thy pitcher.
18 I mai la kela, E inu oe, e kuu haku a wikiwiki oia i kuu iho i kona bakeke ma kona lima, a hoohainu mai la ia ia.
And she said, Drink, my lord: and she hasted, and let down her pitcher upon her hand, and gave him drink.
19 A pau kana hoohainu ana ia ia, i mai la ia, E huki hoi au i ka wai no kou mau kamelo, a pau ko lakou inu ana.
And when she had done giving him drink, she said, I will draw for thy camels also, until they have done drinking.
20 Wikiwiki ae la ia, a ninini iho la i ka wai o kona bakeke iloko o ke pa, a holo hou ae la i ka luawai e huki ai, a huki mai la ia no kona poe kamelo a pau.
And she hasted, and emptied her pitcher into the trough, and ran again unto the well to draw, and drew for all his camels.
21 Mahalo iho la ka naau o ua kanaka la ia ia, aole ia i ekemu aku, i mea e ike ai oia, i ka hoopomaikai ana mai paha o Iehova i kona hele ana mai, aole paha.
And the man looked stedfastly on her, holding his peace, to know whether Jehovah had made his journey prosperous or not.
22 A pau ka inu ana o na kamelo, lawe ae la ua kanaka la i kekahi apo gula no ka ihu, he hapalua o ka sekela ma ke kaupouna ana, me na kupee gula elua no kona mau lima, he umi [na sekela] ma ke kaupouna ana;
And it came to pass, as the camels had done drinking, that the man took a golden ring of half a shekel weight, and two bracelets for her hands of ten shekels weight of gold,
23 Ninau aku la ia, He kaikamahine oe nawai? ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e hai mai ia'u: a he wahi kaawale no anei iloko o ka hale o kou makuakane e moe ai makou?
and said, Whose daughter art thou? tell me, I pray thee. Is there room in thy father’s house for us to lodge in?
24 I mai la kela ia ia, Owau no ke kaikamahine a Betuela a ke keiki a Mileka, ana i hanau ai na Nahora.
And she said unto him, I am the daughter of Bethuel the son of Milcah, whom she bare unto Nahor.
25 I hou mai la hoi kela ia ia, He mauu maloo no a he ai na na holoholona ia makou a nui, a he wahi no hoi e moe ai.
She said moreover unto him, We have both straw and provender enough, and room to lodge in.
26 Kulou iho la ke poo o ua kanaka la, a hoomaikai aku la ia Iehova;
And the man bowed his head, and worshipped Jehovah.
27 I aku la, E hoomaikaiia'ku o Iehova ke Akua o kuu haku o Aberahama, aole ia i hoonele mai i kuu haku i kona aloha a me kona oiaio: ma ke alanui wau, a ua alakai aku o Iehova ia'u ma ka hale o na hoahanau o kuu haku.
And he said, Blessed be Jehovah, the God of my master Abraham, who hath not forsaken his lovingkindness and his truth toward my master: as for me, Jehovah hath led me in the way to the house of my master’s brethren.
28 Holo aku la ua kaikamahine la, a hai aku la i ko ka hale o kona makuwahine ia mau mea.
And the damsel ran, and told her mother’s house according to these words.
29 He kaikunane ko Rebeka, o Labana kona inoa; a holo mai la o Labana iwaho i ua kanaka la, ma ka luawai.
And Rebekah had a brother, and his name was Laban: and Laban ran out unto the man, unto the fountain.
30 A ike aku la ia i ke apo no ka ihu, a me na kupee lima ma na lima o kona kaikuwahine, a lohe aku la ia i ka olelo a kona kaikuwahine a Rebeka, i ka i ana mai, Pela i olelo mai ai ke kanaka ia'u; hele mai la ia i ua kanaka nei; aia hoi, ku iho la ia me na kamelo ma ka luawai.
And it came to pass, when he saw the ring, and the bracelets upon his sister’s hands, and when he heard the words of Rebekah his sister, saying, Thus spake the man unto me; that he came unto the man; and, behold, he was standing by the camels at the fountain.
31 I mai la ia, E ka mea i alohaia e Iehova, e komo mai oe; heaha kau e ku wale nei iwaho? no ka mea, ua hoomakaukau iho nei au i ka hale, a me ka wahi no na kamelo.
And he said, Come in, thou blessed of Jehovah; wherefore standest thou without? for I have prepared the house, and room for the camels.
32 Komo aku la ua kanaka la iloko o ka hale: wehe ae la ia i na kamelo, a haawi aku la i ka mauu maloo a me ka mea ai na na kamelo, a me ka wai e holoi i kona mau wawae, a me na wawae o na kanaka me ia.
And the man came into the house, and he ungirded the camels; and he gave straw and provender for the camels, and water to wash his feet and the feet of the men that were with him.
33 A laweia mai ka ai nana: i aku la oia, Aole au e ai, a hai e aku au mamua i ka'u mea i hele mai nei. I mai la kela, E hai mai.
And there was set food before him to eat: but he said, I will not eat, until I have told mine errand. And he said, Speak on.
34 I aku la ia, Owau no ke kauwa a Aberahama.
And he said, I am Abraham’s servant.
35 Ua hoopomaikai nui mai o Iehova i kuu haku; a ua lilo ia i mea nui: ua haawi mai ia nana i hipa, a me na bipi, i ke kala a me ke gula, i na kauwakane a me na kauwawahine, i na kamelo a me na hoki.
And Jehovah hath blessed my master greatly; and he is become great: and he hath given him flocks and herds, and silver and gold, and men-servants and maid-servants, and camels and asses.
36 A hanau mai la o Sara ka wahine a kuu haku i keikikane nana i kona wa luwahine, a ua haawi aku kela i kona waiwai a pau nona.
And Sarah my master’s wife bare a son to my master when she was old: and unto him hath he given all that he hath.
37 A ua haawi mai kuu haku ia'u e hoohiki, i ka i ana mai, Mai lawe oe i wahine na kuu keiki no na kaikamahine a ko Kanaana, nona keia wahi a'u e noho nei:
And my master made me swear, saying, Thou shalt not take a wife for my son of the daughters of the Canaanites, in whose land I dwell:
38 Aka, e hele oe i ka ohana a kuu maknakane, a i ko'u poe hoahanau, a e lawe mai oe i wahine na kuu keiki.
but thou shalt go unto my father’s house, and to my kindred, and take a wife for my son.
39 I aku la au i kuu haku, Ina paha aole e makemake ka wahine e hahai mai ia'u.
And I said unto my master, Peradventure the woman will not follow me.
40 I mai la kela ia'u, Na Iehova, na ka Mea imua ona ko'u hele ana, nana no e hoouna aku i kona anela me oe, a e hoopomaikai i kou hele ana; a e lawe mai oe i wahine na kuu keiki no ko'u poe hoahanau, a no ka ohana a ko'u makuakane:
And he said unto me, Jehovah, before whom I walk, will send his angel with thee, and prosper thy way; and thou shalt take a wife for my son of my kindred, and of my father’s house:
41 Alaila, e hala ole oe i kuu hoohiki ana, ke hiki aku oe i ko'u poe hoahanau, a haawi ole mai lakou ia oe, alaila e hala ole oe i kuu hoohiki ana.
then shalt thou be clear from my oath, when thou comest to my kindred; and if they give her not to thee, thou shalt be clear from my oath.
42 A hiki mai la au i keia la i ka luawai, i aku la, E Iehova ke Akua o kuu haku o Aberahama, ina oe e hoopomaikai mai i kuu hele ana e hele nei:
And I came this day unto the fountain, and said, O Jehovah, the God of my master Abraham, if now thou do prosper my way which I go:
43 Eia wau, ke ku nei ma ka luawai, a i ka manawa e hele mai ai ka wahine puupaa e huki wai ai, a e i aku au ia ia, Ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e haawi mai no'u i wahi wai o kou bakeke e inu;
behold, I am standing by the fountain of water; and let it come to pass, that the maiden that cometh forth to draw, to whom I shall say, Give me, I pray thee, a little water from thy pitcher to drink;
44 A e olelo mai oia ia'u, E inu oe, a e huki hoi au no kou mau kamelo; oia ka wahine a Iehova i koho ai na ke keiki a ko'u haku.
and she shall say to me, Both drink thou, and I will also draw for thy camels: let the same be the woman whom Jehovah hath appointed for my master’s son.
45 Aole au i hooki iho i ka olelo ana iloko o kuu naau, aia hoi, puka mai la o Rebeka, me kona bakeke maluna o kona poohiwi; iho iho la ia ma ka luawai, a huki mai la: i aku la au ia ia, Ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e haawi mai no'u e inu.
And before I had done speaking in my heart, behold, Rebekah came forth with her pitcher on her shoulder; and she went down unto the fountain, and drew: and I said unto her, Let me drink, I pray thee.
46 Wikiwiki iho la ia, a kuu iho la i kona bakeke mailuna iho ona, i mai la, E inu oe, a e hooinu hoi au i kou mau kamelo: inu iho la no au, a hooinu aku la hoi oia i na kamelo.
And she made haste, and let down her pitcher from her shoulder, and said, Drink, and I will give thy camels drink also: so I drank, and she made the camels drink also.
47 Ninau aku la au ia ia, i aku la, He kaikamahine oe nawai? I mai la kela, He kaikamahine na Betuela ke keiki a Nahora, na ka mea a Mileka i hanau ai nana: a lou aku la au i ke apo ma kona ihu, a me na kupee lima ma kona mau lima.
And I asked her, and said, Whose daughter art thou? And she said, The daughter of Bethuel, Nahor’s son, whom Milcah bare unto him: and I put the ring upon her nose, and the bracelets upon her hands.
48 Kulou iho la au i kuu poo, a hoomana aku la ia Iehova, a hoomaikai aku la ia Iehova i ke Akua o kun haku o Aberahama, nana au i alakai ma ke ala pono, i lawe au i ke kaikamahine a ka hoahanau o kuu haku i wahine na kana keiki.
And I bowed my head, and worshipped Jehovah, and blessed Jehovah, the God of my master Abraham, who had led me in the right way to take my master’s brother’s daughter for his son.
49 Ano la, a i manao lokomaikai io mai oukou i kuu haku, e hai mai ia'u: a i ole, e hai mai hoi; i huli aku ai au i ka akau paha, i ka hema paha.
And now if ye will deal kindly and truly with my master, tell me: and if not, tell me; that I may turn to the right hand, or to the left.
50 Alaila, olelo mai la o Labana laua o Betuela, i mai la, No Iehova mai ia mea; aole e hiki ia maua ke olelo aku ia oe he hewa, aole hoi he pono.
Then Laban and Bethuel answered and said, The thing proceedeth from Jehovah: we cannot speak unto thee bad or good.
51 Aia hoi o Rebeka imua o kou alo, e lawe oe ia ia a e hele aku, i lilo ai ia i wahine na ke keiki a kou haku, e like me ka Iehova i olelo mai ai.
Behold, Rebekah is before thee, take her, and go, and let her be thy master’s son’s wife, as Jehovah hath spoken.
52 A lohe ae la ke kanwa a Aberahama i ka laua olelo, hoomana aku la ia ia Iehova, [e kulou ana] i ka honua.
And it came to pass, that, when Abraham’s servant heard their words, he bowed himself down to the earth unto Jehovah.
53 Lawe mai la ua kauwa la i na mea kala a me na mea gula, a me na aahu, a haawi aku la ia mau mea no Rebeka: haawi aku la hoi oia i na mea maikai na kona kaikunane a me kona makuwahine.
And the servant brought forth jewels of silver, and jewels of gold, and raiment, and gave them to Rebekah: he gave also to her brother and to her mother precious things.
54 Ai iho la lakou a inu hoi, oia a me na kanaka me ia, a moe iho la ia po. Ala ae la lakou i kakahiaka, i aku la ia, E kuu aku oukou ia'u e hele i ko'u haku.
And they did eat and drink, he and the men that were with him, and tarried all night; and they rose up in the morning, and he said, Send me away unto my master.
55 I mai la kona kaikunane laua o kona makuwahine, E noho no ke kaikamahine me makou i kekahi mau la, i umi paha: a mahope aku e hele no ia.
And her brother and her mother said, Let the damsel abide with us [a few] days, at the least ten; after that she shall go.
56 I aku la kela ia laua, Mai keakea mai olua ia'u, no ka mea, ua hoopomaikai mai o Iehova i kuu hele ana mai; e kuu aku oukou ia'u e hele aku ai i ko'u haku.
And he said unto them, Hinder me not, seeing Jehovah hath prospered my way; send me away that I may go to my master.
57 I mai la laua, E hea aku maua i ke kaikamahine, a e ninau aku ia ia.
And they said, We will call the damsel, and inquire at her mouth.
58 Hea aku la laua ia Rebeka, ninau aku la ia ia, E aku oe e hele pu me keia kanaka? I mai la kela, E hele wau.
And they called Rebekah, and said unto her, Wilt thou go with this man? And she said, I will go.
59 Kuu aku la laua ia Rebeka o ko laua kaikuwahine, me kona kahu, a me ke kauwa a Aberahama, a me na kanaka ona.
And they sent away Rebekah their sister, and her nurse, and Abraham’s servant, and his men.
60 Hoomaikai aku la laua ia Rebeka, i aku la, O oe no ko maua kaikuwahine, e lilo oe i makuwahine o na tausani miliona: e lilo hoi no kau poe mamo, ka pukapa o ka poe inaina aku ia lakou.
And they blessed Rebekah, and said unto her, Our sister, be thou [the mother] of thousands of ten thousands, and let thy seed possess the gate of those that hate them.
61 Ku ae la o Rebeka, me kona mau wahine, holo mai la lakou maluna o na kamelo, e hahai ana i ua kanaka la: a lawe ae la ua kauwa la ia Rebeka, a hoi mai la.
And Rebekah arose, and her damsels, and they rode upon the camels, and followed the man: and the servant took Rebekah, and went his way.
62 I hele mai la o Isaaka ma ke alanui o ka punawai Lahairoi: no ka mea, i noho no ia ma ka aina kukuluhema.
And Isaac came from the way of Beer-lahai-roi; for he dwelt in the land of the South.
63 Hele aku la o Isaaka ma ke kula e noonoo ai i ka wa ahiahi: alawa ae la kona mau maka iluna, aia hoi na kamelo e hoi mai ana.
And Isaac went out to meditate in the field at the eventide: and he lifted up his eyes, and saw, and, behold, there were camels coming.
64 Nana mai la o Rebeka, a ike mai la oia ia Isaaka, lele iho la ia mai luna iho o ke kamelo.
And Rebekah lifted up her eyes, and when she saw Isaac, she alighted from the camel.
65 No ka mea, ua ninau aku ia i ua kauwa la, Owai ia kanaka e hele mai ana i ke kula e halawai me kakou? a ua i mai ke kauwa, O kuu haku no ia: no ia mea, lawe ae la ia i ka pale, a hoouhi iho la ia ia iho.
And she said unto the servant, What man is this that walketh in the field to meet us? And the servant said, It is my master: and she took her veil, and covered herself.
66 A hai mai la ua kauwa la ia Isaaka i na mea a pau ana i hana'i.
And the servant told Isaac all the things that he had done.
67 Alakai aku la o Isaaka ia ia maloko o ka halelewa o kona makuwahine o Sara; lawe aku la oia ia Rebeka, a lilo iho la ia i wahine nana, a aloha ae la oia ia ia. A ua hooluoluia o Isaaka no kona makuwahine.
And Isaac brought her into his mother Sarah’s tent, and took Rebekah, and she became his wife; and he loved her. And Isaac was comforted after his mother’s death.
