Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)
1LAWE aku la ko Pilisetia i ka pahu o ke Akua, a halihali aku la mai Ebenezera aku a hiki i Asedoda.
1And the Philistines took the ark of God, and carried it from the Stone of help into Azotus.
2A lawe ae la ko Pilisetia i ka pahu o ke Akua, a hali aku la iloko o ka hale o Dagona, a waiho ma ka aoao o Dagona.
2And the Philistines took the ark of God, and brought it into the temple of Dagon, and set it by Dagon.
3Ia la iho, ala ae la ko Asedoda i kakahiaka nui, aia hoi, ua hina iho la o Dagona ilalo ke alo ma ka honua imua o ka pahu o Iehova. Lawe aku la lakou ia Dagona, a hooku hou ia ia ma kona wahi.
3And when the Azotians arose early the next day, behold Dagon lay upon his face on the ground before the ark of the Lord: and they took Dagon, and set him again in his place.
4A ia la ae, ala hou ae la lakou i kakahiaka nui, aia hoi, ua hina iho la o Dagona ilalo ke alo ma ka honua imua o ka pahu o Iehova; a o ke poo o Dagona, a me kona mau lima elua, ua hemo ma ka paepae, a o ka ia wale no i koe ia ia.
4And the next day again, when they rose in the morning, they found Dagon lying upon his face on the earth before the ark of the Lord: and the head of Dagon, and both the palms of his hands were cut off upon the threshold:
5No ia mea, o na kahuna a Dagona, a me na mea a pau e hele maloko o ka hale o Dagona, aole lakou e hehi maluna o ka paepae o Dagona ma Asedoda, a hiki i keia wa.
5And only the stump of Dagon remained in its place. For this cause neither the priests of Dagon, nor any that go into the temple tread on the threshold of Dagon in Azotus unto this day.
6A ua kaumaha ka lima o Iehova maluna o ko Asedoda, a luku mai oia ia lakou, a hahau mai ia lakou i ka mai hikoko, i ko Asedoda a me ko laila wahi a puni.
6And the hand of the Lord was heavy upon the Azotians, and he destroyed them, and afflicted Azotus and the coasts thereof with emerods. And in the villages and fields in the midst of that country, there came forth a multitude of mice, and there was the confusion of a great mortality in the city.
7A ike aku la na kanaka o Asedoda i ka mea i hanaia pela, i ae la lakou, Aole e noho me kakou ka pahu o ke Akua o ka Iseraela: no ka mea, ua kaumaha kona lima maluna o kakou, a maluna o Dagona ko kakou akua.
7And the men of Azotus seeing this kind of plague, said: The ark of the God of Israel shall not stay with us: for his hand is heavy upon us, and upon Dagon our god.
8Hoouna aku la lakou e houluulu i na haku a pau o ko Pilisetia io lakou la, ninau aku la ia lakou, Heaha ka makou e hana aku ai i ka pahu o ke Akua o ka Iseraela? I mai la lakou, E laweia'ku ka pahu o ke Akua o ka Iseraela ma Gata. A lawe aku la lakou i ka pahu o ke Akua o ka Iseraela ilaila.
8And sending, they gathered together all the lords of the Philistines to them, and said: What shall we do with the ark of the God of Israel? And the Gethrites answered: Let the ark of the God of Israel be carried about. And they carried the ark of the God of Israel about.
9A mahope o ka lakou lawe ana ku ia mea malaila, ku e mai la ka lima o Iehova i ua kulanakauhale la me ka luku nui loa; a hahau mai ia i ua kanaka o ke kulanakauhale, i ka mea uuku, a me ka mea nui, a poha iho la ko lakou puupuu koko.
9And while they were carrying it about, the band of the Lord came upon every city with an exceeding great slaughter: and he smote the men of every city, both small and great, and they had emerods in their secret parts. And the Gethrites consulted together, and made themselves seats of skins.
10No ia mea, lawe aku la lakou i ka pahu o ke Akua i Ekerona. A hiki aku la ka pahu o ke Akua ma Ekerona, auwe iho la ko Ekerona, i ka i ana ae, Ua lawe mai lakou i ka pahu o ke Akua o ka Iseraela io kakou nei e pepehi ia kakou a me ko kakou poe kanaka.
10Therefore they sent the ark of God into Accaron. And when the ark of God was come into Accaron, the Accaronites cried out, saying: They have brought the ark of the God of Israel to us, to kill us and our people.
11No ia hoi, hoouna aku la lakou e houluulu i na haku a pau o ko Pilisetia, i aku la, E lawe aku i ka pahu o ke Akua o ka Iseraela, a e hoihoi aku ma kona wahi, i ole ai ia e pepehi mai ia makou a me ko makou poe kanaka: no ka mea, he make nui ma ke kulanakauhale a pau; ua kaumaha loa ka lima o ke Akua malaila.
11They sent therefore and gathered together all the lords of the Philistines: and they said: Send away the ark of the God of Israel, and let it return into its own place, and not kill us and our people.
12A o na kanaka aole i make, loohia lakou e ka mai hikoko; a pii ae la ka uwe o ua kulanakauhale la i ka lani.
12For there was the fear of death in every city, and the hand of God was exceeding heavy. The men also that did not die, were afflicted with the emerods: and the cry of every city went up to heaven.
