< Lunakanawai 3 >
1 EIA na lahuikanaka a Iehova i waiho ai e hoao i ka Iseraela, i ka poe a pau i ike ole i ke kaua ana a pau ma Kanaana;
Now these are the nations which the LORD left, to test Israel by them, even as many of Israel as had not known all the wars of Canaan;
2 I mea wale no e ike ai na hanauna o na mamo a Iseraela, e ao aku ia lakou i ke kaua, i ka poe hoi i ike ole ia mea mamua;
Only that the generations of the children of Israel might know, to teach them war, at the least such as before knew nothing of it;
3 Elima alii o ko Pilisetia, a me ko Kanaana a pau, a me ko Zidona, a me ko Hevi i noho ma ka mauna o Lebanona, mai ka mauna mai o Baala-Heremona a hiki i Hamata.
Namely, five lords of the Philistines, and all the Canaanites, and the Sidonians, and the Hivites that dwelt on mount Lebanon, from mount Baalhermon to the entrance of Hamath.
4 He mea lakou e hoao ai i ka Iseraela, i ikeia ko lakou hoolohe a me ka ole i na kauoha a Iehova ana i kauoha mai ai i ko lakou poe makua, ma ka lima o Mose.
And they were to test Israel by them, to know whether they would hearken to the commandments of the LORD, which he commanded their fathers by the hand of Moses.
5 Noho pu iho la no na mamo a Iseraela me ko Kanaana, a me ka Heta, a me ka Amora, a me ka Pereza, a me ka Hevi, a me ka Iebusi.
And the children of Israel dwelt among the Canaanites, Hittites, and Amorites, and Perizzites, and Hivites, and Jebusites:
6 A lawe no lakou i ka lakou kaikamahine, i wahine na lakou, a haawi no i ka lakou kaikamahine iho i na keikikane a kela poe kanaka; a malama no i ko lakou poe akua.
And they took their daughters to be their wives, and gave their daughters to their sons, and served their gods.
7 Hana hewa iho la na mamo a Iseraela imua o Iehova, a hoopoina ae la ia Iehova, i ko lakou Akua, a malama aku la ia Baala a me Asetarota.
And the children of Israel did evil in the sight of the LORD, and forgot the LORD their God, and served Baalim and the groves.
8 Wela iho la ka huhu o Iehova i ka Iseraela, a hoolilo ae la oia ia lakou i ka lima o Kusanerisataima, ke alii o Mesopotamia, a hookauwa aku na mamo a Iseraela na Kusanerisataima, i ewalu makahiki
Therefore the anger of the LORD was hot against Israel, and he sold them into the hand of Chushanrishathaim king of Mesopotamia: and the children of Israel served Chushanrishathaim eight years.
9 A kahea aku la na mamo a Iseraela ia Iehova, alaila, hoala mai o Iehova i mea nana e hoola'e i na mamo a Iseraela, a hoola ae la oia ia lakou, o Oteniela, ke keiki a Kenaza, ke kaikaina o Kaleba.
And when the children of Israel cried to the LORD, the LORD raised up a deliverer to the children of Israel, who delivered them, even Othniel the son of Kenaz, Caleb’s younger brother.
10 Kau mai ka Uhane o Iehova maluna ona, a hooponopono ia i ka Iseraela, a hele aku la i ke kaua; a haawi mai la o Iehova ma kona lima, ia Kusanerisataima, ke alii o Mesopotamia. A lanakila ae la kona lima maluna o Kusanerisataima.
And the Spirit of the LORD came upon him, and he judged Israel, and went out to war: and the LORD delivered Chushanrishathaim king of Mesopotamia into his hand; and his hand prevailed against Chushanrishathaim.
11 Kuapapanui iho la ka aina i hookahi kanaha makahiki; a make iho la o Oteniela, ke keiki a Kenaza.
And the land had rest forty years. And Othniel the son of Kenaz died.
12 Hana hewa hou aku la na mamo a Iseraela imua o Iehova. A hooikaika mai la o Iehova ia Egelona i ke alii o Moaba, e ku e i ka Iseraela, no ka mea, ua hana hewa lakou imua o Iehova.
And the children of Israel did evil again in the sight of the LORD: and the LORD strengthened Eglon the king of Moab against Israel, because they had done evil in the sight of the LORD.
13 Hoakoakoa mai la oia io na la i na mamo a Amona, a me Amaleka, hele ae la, a luku aku la i ka Iseraela, a loaa ia ia ke kulanakauhale o na laau pama.
And he gathered to him the children of Ammon and Amalek, and went and smote Israel, and possessed the city of palm trees.
14 Hookauwa aku ka poe mamo a Iseraela na Egelona, ke Alii o Moaba, i umikumamawalu makahiki.
So the children of Israel served Eglon the king of Moab eighteen years.
15 A i ka wa i kahea aku ai na mamo a Iseraela ia Iehova, alaila, hoala mai o Iehova i mea e hoopakele ae ia lakou, o Ehuda, ke keiki a Gera, he mamo na Beniamina, he kanaka lima hema: a ma kona lima i hoouna aku ai na mamo a Iseraela i makana no Egelona ke alii o Moaba.
But when the children of Israel cried to the LORD, the LORD raised them up a deliverer, Ehud the son of Gera, a Benjamite, a man lefthanded: and by him the children of Israel sent tribute to Eglon king of Moab.
16 Hana iho la o Ehuda i pahikaua oi lua nana, hookahi kubita ka loihi, a omau ae la ma kona uha akau, maloko o kona kapa.
But Ehud made him a dagger which had two edges, of a cubit length; and he girded it under his raiment upon his right thigh.
17 A lawe aku la ia i ka makana ia Egelona, i ke alii o Moaba. He kanaka konahua loa o Egelona.
And he brought the tribute to Eglon king of Moab: and Eglon was a very fat man.
18 A pau ka haawi ana i ka makana, hoihoi aku la ia i ka poe kanaka i lawe i ka makana.
And when he had finished offering the tribute, he sent away the people that bore the tribute.
19 Hoi hou aku la ia, mai na kii o Gilegala aku, i aku la, He olelo malu ka'u nau, e ke alii. I ae la kela, E noho malie. A o ka poe a pau e ku pu ana me ia, hele aku la lakou i waho.
But he himself turned back at the quarries that were by Gilgal, and said, I have a secret errand to thee, O king: who said, Keep silence. And all that stood by him went out from him.
20 Hele mai la o Ehuda io na la; e noho ana ia ma ke keena hooluolu maluna; nona wale no ia wahi I ae la o Ehuda ia ia, He mea ka'u ia oe, na ke Akua mai. Ku mai la oia, mai kona noho mai.
And Ehud came to him; and he was sitting in a summer parlour, which he had for himself alone. And Ehud said, I have a message from God to thee. And he arose from his seat.
21 Hooholo iho la o Ehuda i kona lima hema, lalau iho la i ka pahi ma kona uha akau, a hou aku la iloko o kona opu.
And Ehud put forth his left hand, and took the dagger from his right thigh, and thrust it into his belly:
22 Komo pu aku la ke au mahope a ka maka, a paa mai la ke konahua maluna o ka maka, aole i hiki ia ia ke unuhi i ka pahi mailoko mai o kona opu; a hu mai la ka lepo.
And the handle also entered after the blade; and the fat closed upon the blade, so that he could not draw the dagger out of his belly; and the dirt came out.
23 Alaila, hele aku la o Ehuda iwaho o ka lanai, a pani ae la i na puka o ke keena, a hoopaa iho la.
Then Ehud went forth through the porch, and shut the doors of the parlour upon him, and locked them.
24 A hala aku la ia iwaho, hele mai la na kauwa a Egelona, nana ae la, aia hoi, ua paa na puka o ke keena. I iho la lakou, Ke uhi wale nei oia i kona wawae maloko o ke keena hooluolu.
When he had gone out, his servants came; and when they saw that, behold, the doors of the parlour were locked, they said, Surely he covereth his feet in his summer chamber.
25 Kakali iho la lakou, a hilahila wale, aia hoi, aole ia i wehe mai i na puka o ke keena; a lawe lakou i ke ki, a wehe ae la, aia hoi, ua hina ko lakou haku ilalo i ka honua, ua make.
And they tarried till they were ashamed: and, behold, he opened not the doors of the parlour; therefore they took a key, and opened them: and, behold, their lord lay dead on the earth.
26 Pakele o Ehuda, i ko lakou kakali ana, a hele aku la, ma o aku o na kii, a hiki i Seirata.
And Ehud escaped while they tarried, and passed beyond the quarries, and escaped to Seirath.
27 A hiki aku la ia, puhi iho la ia i ka pu ma na mauna o Eperaima, a iho pu aku la na mamo a Iseraela me ia, mai ka mauna mai, a oia ma ko lakou alo.
And it came to pass, when he had come, that he blew a trumpet in the mountain of Ephraim, and the children of Israel went down with him from the mount, and he before them.
28 I aku la ia ia lakou, E hahai oukou mamuli o'u, no ka mea, ua haawi mai o Iehova i ko oukou poe enemi, i ka Moaba iloko o ko oukou lima. A hahai aku la lakou mamuli ona, a lilo ia lakou na ahua o Ioredane, e ku pono ana i Moaba, aole i ae aku i kekahi kanaka ke hele i kela aoao.
And he said to them, Follow me: for the LORD hath delivered your enemies the Moabites into your hand. And they went down after him, and took the fords of Jordan toward Moab, and permitted not a man to pass over.
29 Luku aku la lakou i ko Moaba ia manawa, i umi paha tausani kanaka, he poe puipui wale no, ua koa no lakou a pau; aole hookahi kanaka i pakele.
And they slew of Moab at that time about ten thousand men, all stout, and all men of valour; and there escaped not a man.
30 Hoohaahaaia ko Moaba ia la maialo iho o ka lima o ka Iseraela. Kuapapanui iho la ka aina, i kanawalu makahiki.
So Moab was subdued that day under the hand of Israel. And the land had rest eighty years.
31 Mahope iho ona, ku mai o Samegara, ke keiki a Anata, nana i luku aku i eono haneri kanaka o ko Pilisetia i ke o bipi; a hoopakele ae la hoi oia i ka Iseraela.
And after him was Shamgar the son of Anath, who slew of the Philistines six hundred men with an ox goad: and he also delivered Israel.
