Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
1Now Dinah, the daughter Leah had borne to Jacob, went out to visit the daughters of the land.
1HELE aku la o Dina o ke kaikamahine a Lea i hanau ai na Iakoba, e ike i na kaikamahine o ia aina.
2When Shechem son of Hamor the Hivite, the prince of the region, saw her, he took her and lay with her by force.
2A ike mai la o Sekema o ke keiki a Hamora no ka Hivi ke alii o ua aina la ia ia, lalau aku la kela ia ia, moe iho la me ia, a hoohaumia ia ia.
3And his soul was drawn to Dinah, the daughter of Jacob. He loved the young girl and spoke to her tenderly.
3Hoopili mai la kona naau ia Dina i ke kaikamahine a Iakoba; aloha mai la ia i ua kaikamahine la, a olelo oluolu mai la i ua kaikamahine la.
4So Shechem told his father Hamor, “Get me this girl as a wife.”
4Olelo aku la o Sekema i kona makuakane ia Hamora, E kii aku oe i ua kaikamahine la, i wahine na'u.
5Jacob heard that Shechem had defiled his daughter Dinah, but since his sons were with his livestock in the field, he remained silent about it until they returned.
5Lohe ae la o Iakoba ua hoohaumia oia i kana kaikamahine ia Dina: aia no kana mau keikikane ma ke kula me kona poe holoholona; a noho olelo ole la o Iakoba, a hoi mai la lakou.
6Meanwhile, Shechem’s father Hamor came to speak with Jacob.
6Hele aku la o Hamora, ka makuakane o Sekema iwaho io Iakoba la e kamailio me ia.
7When Jacob’s sons heard what had happened, they returned from the field. They were filled with grief and fury, because Shechem had committed an outrage in Israel by lying with Jacob’s daughter—a thing that should not be done.
7A lohe ae la na keiki a Iakoba, hoi mai la lakou mai ke kela mai: ehaeha loa ka naau o ua poe kanaka la, a huhu loa iho la lakou, no ka mea, ua hana mai ia i ka mea kolohe i ka Iseraela, i ka moe ana me ke kaikamahine a Iakoba; ka mea pono ole ke hanaia pela.
8But Hamor said to them, “My son Shechem longs for your daughter. Please give her to him as his wife.
8Kamailio mai la o Hamora me lakou, i mai la, Ua pili ka naau o kuu keikikane i ka oukou kaikamahine: ke noi aku nei au ia oukou, e haawi mai ia ia i wahine nana.
9Intermarry with us; give us your daughters, and take our daughters for yourselves.
9E mare mai oukou me makou; e haawi mai i na kaikamahine a oukou na makou, a e lawe hoi i na kaikamahine a makou na oukou.
10You may settle among us, and the land will be open to you. Live here, move about freely, and acquire your own property.”
10E noho pu oukou me makou: imua hoi o ko oukou alo ka aina: e noho oukou, a e kuai hoi iloko, a e hoolilo i ka aina no oukou.
11Then Shechem said to Dinah’s father and brothers, “Grant me this favor, and I will give you whatever you ask.
11Olelo mai la hoi o Sekema i ko Dina makuakane a me kona mau kaikunane, E lokomaikai mai oukou ia'u, a e haawi aku hoi au i ka oukou mea e olelo mai ai ia'u.
12Demand a high dowry and an expensive gift, and I will give you whatever you ask. Only give me the girl as my wife!”
12E hoonui loa oukou i ka'u mea e uku aku ai, a me ka makana, a e haawi aku no au e like me ka oukou e olelo mai ai: aka, e haawi mai i ke kaikamahine i wahine na'u.
13But because Shechem had defiled their sister Dinah, Jacob’s sons answered him and his father Hamor deceitfully.
13Olelo hoopunipuni aku la na keikikane a Iakoba ia Sekema, a ia Hamora i kona makuakane, olelo lakou pela, no ka mea, ua hoohaumia oia ia Dina i ko lakou kaikuwahine.
14“We cannot do such a thing,” they said. “To give our sister to an uncircumcised man would be a disgrace to us.
14Olelo aku la lakou ia laua, Aole e pono ia makou ke hana ia mea, ke haawi aku i ko makou kaikuwahine na ka mea i okipoepoe ole ia; no ka mea, he mea hoino ia no makou.
15We will consent to this on one condition, that you become circumcised like us—every one of your males.
15Penei wale no ka makou e ae aku ai ia olua, a i like auanei oukou me makou, i okipoepoeia na kane o oukou a pau;
16Then we will give you our daughters and take your daughters for ourselves. We will dwell among you and become one people.
16Alaila makou e haawi aku ai i ka makou kaikamahine na oukou, a e lawe hoi i na kaikamahine a oukou na makou; a e noho pu me oukou, a lilo kakou i hookahi poe kanaka.
17But if you will not agree to be circumcised, then we will take our sister and go.”
17Aka, ke hoolohe ole oukou i ka makou, e okipoepoeia'i; alaila e lawe aku makou i ka makou kaikamahine, a e hele.
18Their offer seemed good to Hamor and his son Shechem.
18A he oluolu ka lakou olelo ia Hamora, a me Sekema ke keiki a Hamora.
19The young man, who was the most respected of all his father’s household, did not hesitate to fulfill this request, because he was delighted with Jacob’s daughter.
19Aole i hoopanee aku na kanaka opiopio la i ka hana ana ia mea; no ka mea, he makemake kona i ke kaikamahine a Iakoba: a ua oi aku kona maikai imua o ko ka hale a pau o kona makuakane.
20So Hamor and his son Shechem went to the gate of their city and addressed the men of their city:
20Hele aku la o Hamora, laua o Sekema o kana keiki ma ka ipuka o ko laua kulanakauhale, a kamailio pu iho la me na kanaka o ko laua kulanakauhale, i kai ana aku,
21“These men are at peace with us. Let them live and trade in our land; indeed, it is large enough for them. Let us take their daughters in marriage and give our daughters to them.
21Ea, ke noho malie nei keia poe kanaka me kakou; nolaila, e hoonoho kakou ia lakou ma ka aina, e piele lakou iloko; no ka mea, o ka aina, aia hoi, ua akea ia no lakou; e lawe kakou i na kaikamahine a lakou i wahine na kakou, a e haawi aku hoi kakou i na kaikamahine a kakou na lakou.
22But only on this condition will the men agree to dwell with us and be one people: if all our men are circumcised as they are.
22Penei wale no e ae mai ai ua poe kanaka la e noho me kakou, hookahi poe, i okipoepoeia na kane a pau o kakou, e like me lakou i okipoepoeia'i.
23Will not their livestock, their possessions, and all their animals become ours? Only let us consent to them, and they will dwell among us.”
23Aole anei e lilo na kakou ko lakou poe holoholona iki, ka lakou waiwai, a me na holoholona nui a pau a lakou? E ae wale aku no kakou ia lakou, a e noho pu auanei lakou me kakou.
24All the men who went out of the city gate listened to Hamor and his son Shechem, and every male of the city was circumcised.
24Hoolohe aku la lakou ia Hamora a i kana keiki ia Sekema, o ka poe a pau i puka iwaho ma ka ipuka o kona kulanakauhale: a ua okipoepoeia na kane a pau, ka poe a pau i puka iwaho ma ka ipuka o kona kulanakauhale.
25Three days later, while they were still in pain, two of Jacob’s sons (Dinah’s brothers Simeon and Levi) took their swords, went into the unsuspecting city, and slaughtered every male.
25A i ke kolu o ka la, ia lakou i eha ai, o na keikikane elua a Iakoba, o Simeona laua o Levi, na kaikunane o Dina, lalau aku la laua i na pahikaua a laua, hele aku la laua i ua kulanakauhale la me ka makau ole, a pepehi aku la i na kane a pau.
26They killed Hamor and his son Shechem with their swords, took Dinah out of Shechem’s house, and went away.
26Pepehi aku la laua ia Hamora, laua o Sekema o kana keiki me ka maka o ka pahikaua, lawe aku la hoi ia Dina iwaho o ka hale o Sekema, a hele aku la iwaho.
27Jacob’s other sons came upon the slaughter and looted the city, because their sister had been defiled.
27Held mai la na keiki a Iakoba i ka poe i pepehiia, a lawe pio ae la i ka waiwai o ke kulanakauhale; no ka mea, ua hoohaumia lakou i ko lakou kaikuwahine.
28They took their flocks and herds and donkeys, and everything else in the city or in the field.
28Lawe pio aku la hoi lakou i na hipa a lakou, a me na bipi a lakou, a me na hoki a lakou, me ko loko o ke kulanakauhale, a me ko ke kula,
29They carried off all their possessions and women and children, and they plundered everything in their houses.
29Me ko lakou waiwai a pau, me ka lakou kamalii a pau, a me na wahine a lakou, na pau ia lakou i ka hoopioia; a hao ae la lakou i na mea a pau o ka hale.
30Then Jacob said to Simeon and Levi, “You have brought trouble upon me by making me a stench to the Canaanites and Perizzites, the people of this land. We are few in number; if they unite against me and attack me, I and my household will be destroyed.”
30Olelo aku la o Iakoba ia Simeona laua o Levi, Ua hoopilikia mai olua ia'u, i pilau aku ai au iwaena o na kanaka o ka aina nei, iwaena o ka Kanaana a me ka Perezi: a owau la e, he poe uuku ko'u, e hoakoakoa mai auanei lakou e ku e ia'u, a e pepehi mai ia'u, a e make auanei au me ko ka Hale o'u.
31But they replied, “Should he have treated our sister like a prostitute?”
31I mai la lakou, E pono anei e hana mai ia i ko makou kaikuwahine, me he wahine hookamakama la?
