1 Whakapapa 10
1 Na kua whawhai nga Pirihitini ki a Iharaira; a ka whati nga tangata o Iharaira i te aroaro o nga Pirihitini, a hinga ana, mate rawa, i Maunga Kiripoa.
Then the Philistims fought against Israel: and the men of Israel fled before the Philistims, and fell downe slaine in mount Gilboa.
2 Na ka whaia e nga Pirihitini a Haora ratou ko ana tama; a patua iho e nga Pirihitini a Honatana ratou ko Apinarapa, ko Marikihua, nga tama a Haora.
And the Philistims pursued after Saul and after his sonnes, and the Philistims smote Ionathan, and Abinadab, and Malchishua the sonnes of Saul.
3 Na kua taikaha haere te whawhai ki a Haora, a kua mau ia i nga kaikopere; a kua he tona manawa i nga kaikopere.
And the battel was sore against Saul; and the archers hit him, and he was wounded of the archers.
4 Katahi a Haora ka mea ki tana kaimau patu, Unuhia tau hoari, werohia hoki ahau; kei haere mai tenei hunga kokotikore, kei whakatupu kino i ahau. Otiia kihai i pai tana kaimau patu; he nui hoki no tona hopohopo. Heoi ka mau a Haora ki tana hoari, hinga iho ana ki runga.
Then sayde Saul to his armour bearer, Drawe out thy sworde, and thrust me thorowe therewith, lest these vncircumcised come and mocke at me: but his armour bearer would not, for he was sore afraid: therefore Saul tooke the sword and fell vpon it.
5 A, no te kitenga o tana kaimau patu kua mate a Haora, ka hinga hoki ia ki runga ki tana hoari, a ka mate.
And when his armour bearer saw that Saul was dead, he fell likewise vpon the sworde, and dyed.
6 Heoi ka mate a Haora me ana tama tokotoru; mate tahi ana tona whare katoa.
So Saul dyed and his three sonnes, and all his house, they dyed together.
7 A, no te kitenga o nga tangata katoa o Iharaira i te raorao kua whati ratou, kua mate hoki a Haora ratou ko ana tama, whakarerea ake e ratou o ratou pa, a rere ana; na ka haere mai nga Pirihitini, a nohoia iho e ratou.
And when all the men of Israel that were in the valley, sawe how they fledde, and that Saul and his sonnes were dead, they forsooke their cities, and fled away, and the Philistims came, and dwelt in them.
8 A, i te aonga ake, i te haerenga mai o nga Pirihitini ki te muru i te hunga i patua, na ka kitea a Haora ratou ko ana tama e takoto ana i runga i Maunga Kiripoa.
And on the morrowe when the Philistims came to spoyle them that were slaine, they found Saul and his sonnes lying in mount Gilboa.
9 Na huia ana ona e ratou, tangohia ana tona upoko me ana patu, tukua ana kia kawea puta noa i te whenua o nga Pirihitini a tawhio noa, kia kauwhautia ki a ratou whakapakoko, ki te iwi.
And when they had stript him, they tooke his head and his armour, and sent them into the land of the Philistims round about, to publish it vnto their idoles, and to the people.
10 I whakatakotoria hoki e ratou ana patu ki te whare o o ratou atua, a ko tona upoko titia ake e ratou ki te whare o Rakono.
And they layd vp his armour in the house of their god, and set vp his head in the house of Dagon.
11 A, no te rongonga o Iapehe Kireara katoa ki nga mea katoa i mea ai nga Pirihitini ki a Haora,
When all they of Iabesh Gilead heard all that the Philistims had done to Saul,
12 Ka whakatika nga marohirohi katoa, tangohia iho e ratou te tinana o Haora, me nga tinana o ana tama, kawea ana ki Iapehe, tanumia ana o ratou wheua ki raro i tetahi oki i Iapehe, a e whitu nga ra i nohopuku ai ratou.
Then they arose (all the valiant men) and tooke the body of Saul, and the bodies of his sonnes, and brought them to Iabesh, and buryed the bones of them vnder an oke in Iabesh, and fasted seuen dayes.
13 Heoi kua mate a Haora mo tona he i he ai ia ki a Ihowa, mo te kupu a Ihowa kihai nei i puritia e ia; mona hoki i ui ki tetahi, i a ia nei te atua maori, he rapu whakaaro,
So Saul dyed for his transgression, that he committed against the Lord, euen against the word of the Lord, which he kept not, and in that he sought and asked counsel of a familiar spirit,
14 A kihai i rapu whakaaro i a Ihowa: no reira i whakamatea ai ia e ia, a hurihia ketia ana te kingitanga ki a Rawiri tama a Hehe.
And asked not of the Lord: therefore he slewe him, and turned the kingdome vnto Dauid the sonne of Ishai.
