Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
King James Version with Apocrypha
1MAHOPE mai o ia mea, make iho la o Nahasa ke alii o na mamo a Amona, a nohoalii iho la o Hanuna ma kona wahi.
1Now it came to pass after this, that Nahash the king of the children of Ammon died, and his son reigned in his stead.
2Olelo iho la o Davida, E lokomaikai no wau ia Hanuna ke keiki a Nahasa; no ka mea, i lokomaikai mai kona makuakane ia'u. Hoouna aku la o Davida i na elele e hooluolu aku ia ia no kona makuakane. A hiki aku la na elele o Davida i ka aina o na mamo a Amona, io Hanuna la, e hooluolu ia ia.
2And David said, I will shew kindness unto Hanun the son of Nahash, because his father shewed kindness to me. And David sent messengers to comfort him concerning his father. So the servants of David came into the land of the children of Ammon to Hanun, to comfort him.
3Aka, o na alii o na mamo a Amona, i aku la lakou ia Hanuna, Ke manao nei anei oe, e hoomaikai mai o Davida i kou makuakane i kona hoouna ana mai iou la i na mea hooluolu? Aole anei i hele mai kana mau kauwa iou nei e makaikai, a e hookahuli, a e hoomakakiu mai i ka aina?
3But the princes of the children of Ammon said to Hanun, Thinkest thou that David doth honour thy father, that he hath sent comforters unto thee? are not his servants come unto thee for to search, and to overthrow, and to spy out the land?
4Nolaila, lalau mai la o Hanuna i na kauwa a Davida, a kahi ae la i ko lakou umiumi, a okioki iho la i ko lakou mau aahu mawaena, ma ko lakou kikala, a kipaku mai la ia lakou.
4Wherefore Hanun took David’s servants, and shaved them, and cut off their garments in the midst hard by their buttocks, and sent them away.
5Hele mai la kekahi, a hai aku la ia Davida i ka mea i hanaia mai i ua mau kanaka la. Hoouna aku ia ia e halawai me lakou: no ka mea, ua hilahila loa lakou. I aku la ke alii, E noho oukou ma Ieriko, a ulu ae ko oukou umiumi, alaila e hoi mai
5Then there went certain , and told David how the men were served. And he sent to meet them: for the men were greatly ashamed. And the king said, Tarry at Jericho until your beards be grown, and then return.
6A ike iho la na mamo a Amona, ua pilau lakou imua o Davida, hoouka aku la o Hanuna me na mamo a Amona i na talena kala he tausani e hoolimalima no lakou i na halekaa a me na hoohololio mai Mesopotamia, a mai Suria-maaka, a mai Zoba mai.
6¶ And when the children of Ammon saw that they had made themselves odious to David, Hanun and the children of Ammon sent a thousand talents of silver to hire them chariots and horsemen out of Mesopotamia, and out of Syria-maachah, and out of Zobah.
7Hoolimalima ae la lakou i na kaa he kanakolukumamalua tausani, a me ke alii o Maaka, a me kona poe kanaka; a hele mai lakou a hoomoana imua o Medeba. Akoakoa mai la na mamo a Amona mailoko mai o ko lakou mau kulanakauhale, a hele mai i ke kaua.
7So they hired thirty and two thousand chariots, and the king of Maachah and his people; who came and pitched before Medeba. And the children of Ammon gathered themselves together from their cities, and came to battle.
8A lohe ae la o Davida, hoouna aku la oia ia Ioaba, me ka puali a pau o ka poe ikaika.
8And when David heard of it , he sent Joab, and all the host of the mighty men.
9Hele mai la ka poe mamo a Amona iwaho, a hoonohonoho i ke kaua ma ke alo o ka puka e komo ai iloko o ke kulanakauhale: a ku okoa ae la na alii i hiki mai ma ke kola.
9And the children of Ammon came out, and put the battle in array before the gate of the city: and the kings that were come were by themselves in the field.
10A ike aku la o Ioaba i ke alo o na kaua, mamua kekahi, a mahope kekahi, wae aku la oia i ka poe ui a pau o ka Iseraela, a hoonohonoho aku la ia lakou e ku e i ko Suria
10Now when Joab saw that the battle was set against him before and behind, he chose out of all the choice of Israel, and put them in array against the Syrians.
11A haawi aku la ia i ka poe i koe ma ka lima o Abisai kona kaikaina, a hoonohonoho aku oia ia lakou e ku e i na mamo a Amona.
11And the rest of the people he delivered unto the hand of Abishai his brother, and they set themselves in array against the children of Ammon.
12I aku la oia, Ina e oi aku ka ikaika o ko Suria i ko'u, alaila e kokua mai oe ia'u: aka, ina e oi aku ka ikaika o na mamo a Amona i kou, alaila au e kokua aku ia oe.
12And he said, If the Syrians be too strong for me, then thou shalt help me: but if the children of Ammon be too strong for thee, then I will help thee.
13I nui ka ikaika, a e koa hoi kakou no ko kakou lahuikanaka, a me na kulanakauhale no ko kakou Akua: a e hana mai o Iehova i ka mea pono imua o kona maka.
13Be of good courage, and let us behave ourselves valiantly for our people, and for the cities of our God: and let the LORD do that which is good in his sight.
14Neenee aku la o Ioaba me na kanaka me ia imua o ko Suria, i ke kaua ana; a hee aku la lakou imua ona.
14So Joab and the people that were with him drew nigh before the Syrians unto the battle; and they fled before him.
15A ike aku la na mamo a Amona, ua hee aku la ko Suria, alaila hee aku la hoi lakou imua o Abisai kona kaikaina, a komo aku la iloko o ke kulanakauhale. Alaila hele mai la o Ioaba i Ierusalema.
15And when the children of Ammon saw that the Syrians were fled, they likewise fled before Abishai his brother, and entered into the city. Then Joab came to Jerusalem.
16A ike ae la ko Suria, ua pepehiia lakou imua o ka Iseraela, hoouna aku la lakou i na elele, a kai mai la lakou i ko Suria e noho ana ma kela aoao o ka muliwai: a imua o lakou o Sopaka ka lunakoa no Hadarezera.
16¶ And when the Syrians saw that they were put to the worse before Israel, they sent messengers, and drew forth the Syrians that were beyond the river: and Shophach the captain of the host of Hadarezer went before them.
17A hai aku la kekahi ia Davida: a hoakoakoa ae la oia i ka Iseraela a pau, a hele aku la ma kela aoao o Ioredane, a hiki aku la io lakou la, a hoonohonoho aku la i ke kaua ku e ia lakou. Aia hoonohonoho aku ai o Davida i ke kaua ku e ia lakou, alaila lakou i kaua mai me ia.
17And it was told David; and he gathered all Israel, and passed over Jordan, and came upon them, and set the battle in array against them. So when David had put the battle in array against the Syrians, they fought with him.
18A hee aku la ko Suria imua o ka Iseraela; a pepehi aku la o Davida i na kanaka o na halekaa ehiku tausani, a me na kanaka kaniwawae he kanaha tausani, a make iho la o Sopaka ka lunakaua.
18But the Syrians fled before Israel; and David slew of the Syrians seven thousand men which fought in chariots, and forty thousand footmen, and killed Shophach the captain of the host.
19A ike iho la na kauwa a Hadarezera, ua pepehiia lakou imua o ka Iseraela, hookuikahi mai la lakou me Davida, a lilo iho la i poe kauwa nana Aole hoi i manao ko Suria e kokua hou aku i na mamo a Amona.
19And when the servants of Hadarezer saw that they were put to the worse before Israel, they made peace with David, and became his servants: neither would the Syrians help the children of Ammon any more.
