1A I ka hoi ana mai o Saula i ka hahai ana i ko Pilisetia, ua haiia mai ia ia, i mai la, Aia hoi o Davida ma ka waonahele o Enegedi.
1(24-2) And it came to pass, when Saul was returned from following the Philistines, that it was told him, saying: 'Behold, David is in the wilderness of En-gedi.'
2Alaila lawe ae la o Saula i ekolu tausani kanaka i waeia noloko mai o ka Iseraela a pau, a hele aku la e imi ia Davida a me kona poe kanaka maluna o na pohaku o na kao hihiu.
2(24-3) Then Saul took three thousand chosen men out of all Israel, and went to seek David and his men upon the rocks of the wild goats.
3A hiki aka ia i na pa hipa ma ke ala, a malaila he ana; a komo aku la o Saula e uhi i kona wawae: a o Davida a me kona poe kanaka aia ma na aoao o ke ana.
3(24-4) And he came to the sheepcotes by the way, where was a cave; and Saul went in to cover his feet. Now David and his men were sitting in the innermost parts of the cave.
4I aku la na kanaka o Davida ia ia, Aia hoi, ua hiki mai ka la a Iehova i i mai ai, Aia hoi, e hoolilo ana au i kou enemi iloko o kou lima, i hana aku ai oe ia ia e like me kou makemake. Alaila ku ae la o Davida, a oki malu iho i ka lepa o ka lole aahu o Saula.
4(24-5) And the men of David said unto him: 'Behold the day in which the LORD hath said unto thee: Behold, I will deliver thine enemy into thy hand, and thou shalt do to him as it shall seem good unto thee.' Then David arose, and cut off the skirt of Saul's robe privily.
5A mahope iho, kui iho la ka naau o Davida ia ia iho, i kona oki ana i ka lepa o ka lole aahu o Saula.
5(24-6) And it came to pass afterward, that David's heart smote him, because he had cut off Saul's skirt.
6I aku la ia i kona poe kanaka, Ua hoole mai o Iehova ke hana aku au i keia mea i kuu haku, i ka mea a Iehova i poni ai, a e kau aku i kuu lima maluna ona, no ka mea, oia ka mea i poniia e Iehova.
6(24-7) And he said unto his men: 'The LORD forbid it me, that I should do this thing unto my lord, the LORD'S anointed, to put forth my hand against him, seeing he is the LORD'S anointed.'
7Hooikaika aku la o Davida i kona poe kanaka ma keia olelo, aole ia i ae aku ia lakou e ku e ia Saula. Ku ae la o Saula mawaho o ke ana, a hele aku la ma ke ala.
7(24-8) So David checked his men with these words, and suffered them not to rise against Saul. And Saul rose up out of the cave, and went on his way.
8Mahope iho, ku ae la o Davida a hele iwaho o ke ana, a kahea aku la mahope o Saula, i aku la, E kuu haku, e ke alii. A nana ae la o Saula mahope ona, kulou iho la o Davida me kona maka ma ka honua, a haule iho ilalo.
8(24-9) David also arose afterward, and went out of the cave, and cried after Saul, saying: 'My lord the king.' And when Saul looked behind him, David bowed with his face to the earth, and prostrated himself.
9I aku la o Davida ia Saula, No ke aha la oe i hoolohe ai i ka olelo a kanaka, i ka i ana mai, Aia hoi, ke imi nei o Davida e hana eha ia oe?
9(24-10) And David said to Saul: 'Wherefore hearkenest thou to men's words, saying: Behold, David seeketh thy hurt?
10Aia hoi, i keia la ua ike kou maka i ka hoolilo ana o Iehova ia oe iloko o kuu lima ma ke ana: a i mai la kekahi e pepehi ia oe; aka, ua aloha au ia oe; i aku la, Aole au e kau aku i kuu lima maluna o kuu haku; no ka mea, oia ka Iehova i poni ai.
10(24-11) Behold, this day thine eyes have seen how that the LORD had delivered thee to-day into my hand in the cave; and some bade me kill thee; but mine eye spared thee; and I said: I will not put forth my hand against my lord; for he is the LORD'S anointed.
11E nana oe, e kuu makuakane, e nana hoi i ka lepa o kou aahu ma kuu lima: no ka mea, i kuu oki ana i ka lepa o kou aahu, aole hoi i pepehi ia oe, e nana hoi, e ike oe, aole he hewa, aole hoi he lawehala iloko o kuu lima, aole no au i hana hewa aku ia oe: aka, ke imi mai nei oe i kuu ola e lawe aka ia.
11(24-12) Moreover, my father, see, yea, see the skirt of thy robe in my hand; for in that I cut off the skirt of thy robe, and killed thee not, know thou and see that there is neither evil nor transgression in my hand, and I have not sinned against thee, though thou layest wait for my soul to take it.
12Na Iehova e hooponopono iwaena o kaua, a na Iehova e hoopai ia oe no'u; aka, aole e kauia'ku kuu lima maluna ou.
12(24-13) The LORD judge between me and thee, and the LORD avenge me of thee; but my hand shall not be upon thee.
13E like me ka olelo a ka poe kahiko, No ka poe hewa mai ka hewa; aka, aole e kauia'ku kuu lima maluna ou.
13(24-14) As saith the proverb of the ancients: Out of the wicked cometh forth wickedness; but my hand shall not be upon thee.
14Mamuli owai i puka mai nei ke alii o ka Iseraela? e alualu ana oe ia wai? mamuli o ka ilio make anei? mamuli o ka ukulele anei?
14(24-15) After whom is the king of Israel come out? after whom dost thou pursue? after a dead dog, after a flea.
15O Iehova ka lunakanawai, a nana e hooponopono iwaena o kaua, a nana hoi e hooponopono mai i kuu mea, a e hoopakele mai ia'u mai kou lima ae.
15(24-16) The LORD therefore be judge, and give sentence between me and thee, and see, and plead my cause, and deliver me out of thy hand.'
16A pau ae la ka Davida olelo ana'ku i keia mau olelo ia Saula; i mai la o Saula, O kou leo anei keia, e Davida kuu keiki? a hookiekie ae la o Saula i kona leo iluna, a uwe iho la.
16(24-17) And it came to pass, when David had made an end of speaking these words unto Saul, that Saul said: 'Is this thy voice, my son David?' And Saul lifted up his voice, and wept.
17I aku la oia ia Davida, Ua oi aka kou pono mamua o ko'u: no ka mea, ua hana pono mai oe ia'u a ua hana ino aku au ia oe.
17(24-18) And he said to David: 'Thou art more righteous than I; for thou hast rendered unto me good, whereas I have rendered unto thee evil.
18A ua hoike mai oe i keia la i kau hana pono mai ia'u: no ka mea, i ko Iehova hoolilo ana ia'u iloko o kou lima, aole oe i pepehi mai ia'u.
18(24-19) And thou hast declared this day how that thou hast dealt well with me; forasmuch as when the LORD had delivered me up into thy hand, thou didst not kill me.
19Ina i loaa i ke kanaka kona enemi, e kuu ola aku anei kela ia ia? no ia mea, e uku mai o Iehova ia oe i ka pono no ka mea au i hana mai ai ia'u i keia la.
19(24-20) For if a man find his enemy, will he let him go well away? wherefore the LORD reward thee good for that which thou hast done unto me this day.
20Ano hoi, ua ike maopopo no au, e lilo auanei oe i alii, a e hookupaaia ke aupuni o ka Iseraela iloko o kou lima.
20(24-21) And now, behold, I know that thou shalt surely be king, and that the kingdom of Israel shall be established in thy hand.
21Ano hoi, e hoohiki mai oe ia'u ma Iehova, i ole oe e hooki iho i ka'u hua mahope o'u, i ole hoi oe e hooki i kuu inoa mai ka hale aku o ko'u makuakane.
21(24-22) Swear now therefore unto me by the LORD, that thou wilt not cut off my seed after me, and that thou wilt not destroy my name out of my father's house.'
22A hoohiki aku la o Davida ia Saula, a hoi aku la o Saula i kona wahi; aka, pii aku la o Davida me kona poe kanaka ma kahi paa.
22(24-23) And David swore unto Saul. And Saul went home; but David and his men got them up unto the stronghold.
