Lunakanawai 12
1 A KOAKOA mai la na kanaka o ka Eperaima, a hele ae la i ka aoao akau, i aku la ia Iepeta, No ke aha la oe i hele aku e kaua aku i na mamo a Amona, aole kii mai ia makou e hele pu me oe? E puhi ana makou i kou hale i ke ahi maluna ou.
And the men of Ephraim were gathered together, and passed to Zaphon; and they said unto Jephthah: 'Wherefore didst thou pass over to fight against the children of Ammon, and didst not call us to go with thee? we will burn thy house upon thee with fire.'
2 I mai la o Iepeta ia lakou, He kanaka hakaka nui loa au me na mamo a Amona, a o ko'u poe kanaka kekahi; a i ko'u hea ana aku ia oukou, aole oukou i hoopakele mai ia'u, mai ko lakou lima mai.
And Jephthah said unto them: 'I and my people were at great strife with the children of Ammon; and when I called you, ye saved me not out of their hand.
3 A ike aku la au, aole oukou i hoopakele mai ia'u, alaila waiho iho la au i ko'u ola ma kuu lima, a hele ku e aku la i na mamo a Amona. Haawi mai no o Iehova ia lakou iloko o kuu lima. No ke aha la hoi oukou i hele mai ai ia'u i keia la e kaua mai ia'u?
And when I saw that ye saved me not, I put my life in my hand, and passed over against the children of Ammon, and the LORD delivered them into my hand; wherefore then are ye come up unto me this day, to fight against me?'
4 Alaila hoakoakoa mai la o Iepeta i na kanaka o Gileada, a kaua pu iho la me ka Eperaima. Luku aku la na kanaka o Gileada i ka Eperaima, no ka mea, olelo lakou, O oukou, o ko Gileada, he poe aea oukou no Eperaima, e noho ana mawaena o ka Eperaima, a me ka Manase.
Then Jephthah gathered together all the men of Gilead, and fought with Ephraim; and the men of Gilead smote Ephraim, because they said: 'Ye are fugitives of Ephraim, ye Gileadites, in the midst of Ephraim, and in the midst of Manasseh.'
5 Lilo iho la na ahua o Ioredane i ka Gileada, mamua o ka Eperaima. A ina i hele mai kekahi o ka Eperaima, i pakele, a olelo mai, E hele paha wau i kela aoao; alaila ninau ae la na kanaka o Gileada ia ia, No ka Eperaima oe? A ina olelo mai oia, Aole;
And the Gileadites took the fords of the Jordan against the Ephraimites; and it was so, that when any of the fugitives of Ephraim said: 'Let me go over,' the men of Gilead said unto him: 'Art thou an Ephraimite?' If he said: 'Nay';
6 Alaila, olelo mai lakou ia ia, E i iho oe, Sehiboleta. I mai la kela, Siboleta; no ka mea, aole hiki ia ia ke olelo pololei pela. Alaila hoopaa lakou ia ia, a pepehi no ma na ahua o Ioredane. Ia manawa haule na kanaka o Eperaima, he kanahakumamalua tausani.
then said they unto him: 'Say now Shibboleth'; and he said 'Sibboleth'; for he could not frame to pronounce it right; then they laid hold on him, and slew him at the fords of the Jordan; and there fell at that time of Ephraim forty and two thousand.
7 Hooponopono o Iepeta i ka Iseraela, i eono makahiki. Alaila, make o Iepeta no Gileada, a kanuia oia ma kekahi o na kulanakauhale o Gileada.
And Jephthah judged Israel six years. Then died Jephthah the Gileadite, and was buried in one of the cities of Gilead.
8 A mahope iho ona, na Ibezana o Betelehema i hooponopono i ka Iseraela.
And after him Ibzan of Beth-lehem judged Israel.
9 He kanakolu ana keikikane, a he kanakolu kaikamahine. Hoouna aku la ia ia lakou i kahi e, a lawe mai i kanakolu kaikamahine, mai kahi e, na kana poe keikikane. Nana i hooponopono i ka Iseraela, i ehiku makahiki.
And he had thirty sons, and thirty daughters he sent abroad, and thirty daughters he brought in from abroad for his sons. And he judged Israel seven years.
10 Alaila make o Ibezana, a kanuia ma Betelehema.
and Ibzan died, and was buried at Beth-lehem.
11 A mahope iho ona, hooponopono o Elona, no ka Zebuluna i ka Iseraela. Hooponopono ia i ka Iseraela, he umi makahiki.
And after him Elon the Zebulunite judged Israel; and he judged Israel ten years.
12 A make iho la o Elona, no ka Zebuluna, a kauia iho la ia ma Aialona, ma ka aina o Zebuluna.
And Elon the Zebulunite died, and was buried in Aijalon in the land of Zebulun.
13 A mahope iho ona, na Abedona, ke keiki a Hilela, no ka Piratona, i hooponopono i ka Iseraela.
And after him Abdon the son of Hillel the Pirathonite judged Israel.
14 He kanaha kana poe keikikane, a he kanakolu moopuna kane, a holo lakou maluna o na hoki keiki, he kanahiku. Nana i hooponopono i ka Iseraela, i ewalu makahiki.
And he had forty sons and thirty sons' sons, that rode on threescore and ten ass colts; and he judged Israel eight years.
15 Make iho la o Abedona, ke keiki a Hilela no Piratona, a kanuia iho la ia ma Piratona, ka aina o Eperaima ma ka mauna o ka Ameleka.
And Abdon the son of Hillel the Pirathonite died, and was buried in Pirathon in the land of Ephraim, in the hill-country of the Amalekites.
