II. Samuela 19
Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
King James Version with Apocrypha
1U A haiia'ku ia Ioaba, Aia ke uwe nei ke alii, a ke kanikau nei oia no Abesaloma.
1And it was told Joab, Behold, the king weepeth and mourneth for Absalom.
2Ia la, lilo ae la ke ola i mea e kanikau ai o na kanaka a pau: no ka mea, ua lohe na kanaka ia la, i ka haiia mai o ka uwe ana o ke alii no kana keiki.
2And the victory that day was turned into mourning unto all the people: for the people heard say that day how the king was grieved for his son.
3A hoi malu aku la na kanaka iloko o ke kulanakauhale ia la, e like me na kanaka hilahila e holo malu aku, ke hee lakou i ke kaua.
3And the people gat them by stealth that day into the city, as people being ashamed steal away when they flee in battle.
4Aka, o ke alii, pulou iho la ia i kona maka, a uwe aku la ke alii me ka leo nui, E kuu keiki e Abesaloma e! e Abesaloma kuu keiki, kuu keiki e!
4But the king covered his face, and the king cried with a loud voice, O my son Absalom, O Absalom, my son, my son!
5Hele aku la o Ioaba iloko o ka hale i ke alii, i aku la, Ua hoohilahila oe i keia la i na maka o kau poe kauwa a pau, o ka poe nana i malama i kou ola, a me ke ola o kau mau keikikane, a me kau mau kaikamahine, a me ke ola o kau mau wahine, a me ke ola o kau mau haiawahine;
5And Joab came into the house to the king, and said, Thou hast shamed this day the faces of all thy servants, which this day have saved thy life, and the lives of thy sons and of thy daughters, and the lives of thy wives, and the lives of thy concubines;
6Ma kou aloha ana aku i kou poe enemi, a me ka hoowahawaha ana i kou poe hoalauna: no ka mea, ua hoike mai oe i keia la, he mea ole ia oe na alii a me na kauwa: a ke ike nei au i keia la, ina paha i ola o Abesaloma, a make makou a pau i keia la, ina ua oluolu io no oe.
6In that thou lovest thine enemies, and hatest thy friends. For thou hast declared this day, that thou regardest neither princes nor servants: for this day I perceive, that if Absalom had lived, and all we had died this day, then it had pleased thee well.
7Ano hoi, e ala'e oe, e hele iwaho, a e olelo hooluolu aku i kau poe kauwa. Ke hoohiki aku nei au ma o Iehova la, a i hele ole aku oe, aole e noho kekahi me oe i neia po; a e ino loa aku ia mea, i na mea ino a pau i hiki mai iou la mai kou wa opiopio a hiki ia nei.
7Now therefore arise, go forth, and speak comfortably unto thy servants: for I swear by the LORD , if thou go not forth, there will not tarry one with thee this night: and that will be worse unto thee than all the evil that befell thee from thy youth until now.
8Alaila ala'e la ke alii, a noho iho la ma ka ipuka o ka pa. Hai aku la lakou i na kanaka a panu, Aia hoi, ke noho mai la ke alii ma ka ipuka. A hele mai la na kanaka a pau imua o ke alii; no ka mea, ua mahuka aku la ka Iseraela o kela kanaka keia kanaka a pau i kona halelewa iho.
8Then the king arose, and sat in the gate. And they told unto all the people, saying, Behold, the king doth sit in the gate. And all the people came before the king: for Israel had fled every man to his tent.
9Hoopaapaa ae la na kanaka a pau ma na ohana a pau o ka Iseraela, i ae la, Ua hoola mai ke alii ia kakou mai ka lima ae o ko kakou poe enemi, a ua hoopakele hoi oia ia kakou mai ka lima ae o ko Pilisetia: ano hoi, ua holo aku no ia mawaho o ka aina no Abesaloma.
9¶ And all the people were at strife throughout all the tribes of Israel, saying, The king saved us out of the hand of our enemies, and he delivered us out of the hand of the Philistines; and now he is fled out of the land for Absalom.
10A o Abesaloma ka mea a kakou i poni ai i alii maluna o kakou, ua make ia iloko o ke kaua: heaha hoi ka mea e olelo ole aku ai oukou i kekahi huaolelo no ka hoihoi ana mai i ke alii?
10And Absalom, whom we anointed over us, is dead in battle. Now therefore why speak ye not a word of bringing the king back?
11Hoouna aku la o Davida ke alii io Zadoka la a me Abiatara na kahuna, i aku la, E olelo aku olua i na lunakahiko o ka Iuda, e i aku, No ke aha la e lohi loa nei oukou i ka hoihoi ana mai i ke alii i kona hale? no ka mea, ua hiki mai ka olelo a ka Iseraela a pau i ke alii, a i kona ohana.
11¶ And king David sent to Zadok and to Abiathar the priests, saying, Speak unto the elders of Judah, saying, Why are ye the last to bring the king back to his house? seeing the speech of all Israel is come to the king, even to his house.
12Oukou no na hoahanau o'u, oukou no ko'u mau iwi a me ko'u io; no ke aha hoi e lohi loa nei oukou i ka hoihoi aku i ke alii?
12Ye are my brethren, ye are my bones and my flesh: wherefore then are ye the last to bring back the king?
13E i aku hoi olua ia Amasa, Aole anei oe no kuu iwi a me kuu io? Pela ke Akua e hana mai ai ia'u, a nui aku, i ole oe ka lunakaua mau imua o'u ma ko Ioaba wahi.
13And say ye to Amasa, Art thou not of my bone, and of my flesh? God do so to me, and more also, if thou be not captain of the host before me continually in the room of Joab.
14Hoohuli mai la kela i ka naau o na kanaka a pau o ka Iuda, e like me ko ke kanaka hookahi; nolaila, olelo aku la lakou i ke alii, E hoi hou mai oe a me au mau kauwa a pau.
14And he bowed the heart of all the men of Judah, even as the heart of one man; so that they sent this word unto the king, Return thou, and all thy servants.
15Alaila hoi mai la ke alii, a hiki mai i Ioredane. A hele mai la ka Iuda i Gilegala e halawai me ke alii, a e alakai i ke alii ma keia aoao o Ioredane.
15So the king returned, and came to Jordan. And Judah came to Gilgal, to go to meet the king, to conduct the king over Jordan.
16Ao Simei ke keiki a Gera, he mamo na Beniamina no Bahurima, wikiwiki ae la ia a iho pu aku la me na kanaka o ka Iuda e halawai me ke alii me Davida.
16¶ And Shimei the son of Gera, a Benjamite, which was of Bahurim, hasted and came down with the men of Judah to meet king David.
17Me ia pu na kanaka o ka Beniamina he tausani, a o Ziba ke kauwa na ka ohana a Saula, a me ia hoi na keikikane ana he umikumamalima, a me na kauwa ana he iwakalua: hele mai la lakou ma keia aoao o Ioredane imua o ke alii.
17And there were a thousand men of Benjamin with him, and Ziba the servant of the house of Saul, and his fifteen sons and his twenty servants with him; and they went over Jordan before the king.
18A holo ae la ka waapa e alo mai i ko ka hale o ke alii, a e lawelawe hoi i ka mea a ke alii i manao ai he pono. Moe iho la o Simei ke keiki a Gera imua o ke alii i kona pae ana i keia aoao o Ioredane.
18And there went over a ferry boat to carry over the king’s household, and to do what he thought good. And Shimei the son of Gera fell down before the king, as he was come over Jordan;
19I mai la ia i ke alii, mai manao hewa mai kuu haku ia'u, aole hoi e hoomauhala i ka mea a kau kauwa i hana kolohe aku ai i ka la a kuu haku a ke alii i puka mai ai iwaho o Ierusalema, i waiho ai ke alii ia mea maloko o kona naau.
19And said unto the king, Let not my lord impute iniquity unto me, neither do thou remember that which thy servant did perversely the day that my lord the king went out of Jerusalem, that the king should take it to his heart.
20No ka mea, ke ike nei kau kauwa; ua hana hewa no wau: nolaila, eia au i hele mai nei, ka mea mua o ka ohana a Iosepa, i iho mai e halawai me kuu haku me ke alii.
20For thy servant doth know that I have sinned: therefore, behold, I am come the first this day of all the house of Joseph to go down to meet my lord the king.
21Olelo mai la o Abisai ke keiki a Zeruia, i mai la, Aole anei e make o Simei ia mea; no ka mea, ua hoino mai ia i ka Iehova mea i poniia?
21But Abishai the son of Zeruiah answered and said, Shall not Shimei be put to death for this, because he cursed the LORD’s anointed?
22I aku la o Davida, Heaha ka'u ia olua, e na keiki a Zeruia, i ku e mai ai olua ia'u i keia la? E make anei kekahi kanaka i keia la iloko o ka Iseraela? Aole anei au i ike, owau no ke alii i keia la maluna o ka Iseraela?
22And David said, What have I to do with you, ye sons of Zeruiah, that ye should this day be adversaries unto me? shall there any man be put to death this day in Israel? for do not I know that I am this day king over Israel?
23I aku la ke alii ia Simei, Aole oe e make: a hoohiki aku la ke alii ia ia.
23Therefore the king said unto Shimei, Thou shalt not die. And the king sware unto him.
24Iho aku la hoi o Mepiboseta ka moopuna a Saula e halawai me ke alii; aole ia i hooponopono i kona mau wawae, aole i hoomaikai i kona umiumi, aole no hoi i holoi i kona kapa, mai ka la i hele aku ai ke alii, a hiki i ka la i hoi hou mai ai ia me ka malu.
24¶ And Mephibosheth the son of Saul came down to meet the king, and had neither dressed his feet, nor trimmed his beard, nor washed his clothes, from the day the king departed until the day he came again in peace.
25A hiki mai la ia i Ierusalema e halawai me ke alii, i aku la ke alii ia ia, E Mepiboseta, heaha kau i hele pu ole ai me au?
25And it came to pass, when he was come to Jerusalem to meet the king, that the king said unto him, Wherefore wentest not thou with me, Mephibosheth?
26I mai la kela, E kuu haku, e ke alii, ua hoopunipuni mai kuu kauwa ia'u: no ka mea, i aku la kau kauwa, e hoee aku no au i ka noho maluna o ka hoki no'u, i holo ai au maluna, a hele aku i ke alii; no ka mea, he oopa kau kauwa.
26And he answered, My lord, O king, my servant deceived me: for thy servant said, I will saddle me an ass, that I may ride thereon, and go to the king; because thy servant is lame.
27A ua alapahi kela i kau kauwa imua o kuu haku o ke alii; a ua like kuu haku ke alii me ka anela o ke Akua; nolaila, e hana aku oe i ka mea pono ma kou maka.
27And he hath slandered thy servant unto my lord the king; but my lord the king is as an angel of God: do therefore what is good in thine eyes.
28No ka mea, ua like me na kanaka make ka poe ohana a pau o kuu kupunakane imua o kuu haku o ke alii; aka, ua hoonoho oe i kau kauwa iwaena o ka poe nana i ai ma kou papaaina iho: heaha hoi kuu pono e kahea hou aku ai i ke alii?
28For all of my father’s house were but dead men before my lord the king: yet didst thou set thy servant among them that did eat at thine own table. What right therefore have I yet to cry any more unto the king?
29I aku la ke alii ia ia, No ke aha oe e olelo hou mai nei no kau mau mea? Ua olelo aku no wau, E hoolike a like olua me Ziba i ka aina.
29And the king said unto him, Why speakest thou any more of thy matters? I have said, Thou and Ziba divide the land.
30I mai la o Mepiboseta i ke alii, Ae, e lawe kela nona i na mea a pau: no ka mea, ua hoi hou mai nei kuu haku ke alii i kona hale me ka malu.
30And Mephibosheth said unto the king, Yea, let him take all, forasmuch as my lord the king is come again in peace unto his own house.
31Iho mai la hoi o Barezilai no Gileada mai Rogelima mai a hele pu mai me ke alii ma keia kapa o Ioredane, e alakai ia ia ma neia aoao o Ioredane.
31¶ And Barzillai the Gileadite came down from Rogelim, and went over Jordan with the king, to conduct him over Jordan.
32He kanaka elemakule o Barezilai; he kanawalu kona mau makahiki: a hanai aku la ia i ke alii i kona wa i noho ai ma Mahanaima; no ka mea, he kanaka koikoi nui loa ia.
32Now Barzillai was a very aged man, even fourscore years old: and he had provided the king of sustenance while he lay at Mahanaim; for he was a very great man.
33I aku la ke alii ia Barezilai, E hele pu oe me au, a e hanai aku no au ia oe ma Ierusalema.
33And the king said unto Barzillai, Come thou over with me, and I will feed thee with me in Jerusalem.
34I mai la o Barezilai i ke alii, Ehia mau la o kuu ola e koe, i pii aku ai au me ke alii i Ierusalema?
34And Barzillai said unto the king, How long have I to live, that I should go up with the king unto Jerusalem?
35He kanawalu na makahiki o'u i keia la; e hiki anei ia'u ke ike mawaena o ka pono a me ka hewa? Ua ono anei i kau kauwa ka'u mea e ai ai, a me ka'u mea e inu ai? e lohe hou anei au i ka leo o na kane mea mele a me na wahine mea mele? no ke aha hoi e hookaumaha aku ai kau kauwa i kuu haku i ke alii?
35I am this day fourscore years old: and can I discern between good and evil? can thy servant taste what I eat or what I drink? can I hear any more the voice of singing men and singing women? wherefore then should thy servant be yet a burden unto my lord the king?
36E hele ana kau kauwa ma o iki aku o Ioredane me ke alii: no ke aha hoi e hoouku mai ai ke alii ia'u ia uku nui?
36Thy servant will go a little way over Jordan with the king: and why should the king recompense it me with such a reward?
37Ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e ae mai oe i kau kauwa e hoi hou aku ia, i make au maloko o kuu kulanakauhale, ma ka halekupapau o kuu makuakane a me uku makuwahine. Aka, eia hoi kau kauwa o Kimehama; e aho e hele pu ia me kuu haku me ke alii; e hana aku oe ia ia e like me ka mea pono ia oe.
37Let thy servant, I pray thee, turn back again, that I may die in mine own city, and be buried by the grave of my father and of my mother. But behold thy servant Chimham; let him go over with my lord the king; and do to him what shall seem good unto thee.
38I aku la ke alii, E hele pu o Kimehama me au, a e hana aku au ia ia ma ka mea pono ia oe: a o ka mea au e makemake mai ai ia'u, oia ka'u e hana aku ai nou.
38And the king answered, Chimham shall go over with me, and I will do to him that which shall seem good unto thee: and whatsoever thou shalt require of me, that will I do for thee.
39Hele mai la na kanaka a pau ma neia aoao o Ioredane. A pae mai ke alii, alaila honi ae la ke alii ia Barezilai, a hoomaikai aku la ia ia, a hoi hou aku la ia i kona wahi.
39And all the people went over Jordan. And when the king was come over, the king kissed Barzillai, and blessed him; and he returned unto his own place.
40Alaila hele aku la ke alii i Gilegala, a hele pu aku la o Kimehama me ia: a alakai aku la na kanaka a pau o ka Iuda i ke alii, a pela hoi kekahi hapa o na kanaka o ka Iseraela.
40Then the king went on to Gilgal, and Chimham went on with him: and all the people of Judah conducted the king, and also half the people of Israel.
41Aia hoi, hele mai la na kanaka a pau o ka Iseraela i ke alii, i aku la i ke alii, No ke aha la i aihue aku ai ko makou mau hoahanau na kanaka o ka Iuda ia oe, a ua kai mai i ke alii a me ko ka hale ona, a me na kanaka o Davida a pau me ia ma keia kapa o Ioredane?
41¶ And, behold, all the men of Israel came to the king, and said unto the king, Why have our brethren the men of Judah stolen thee away, and have brought the king, and his household, and all David’s men with him, over Jordan?
42Olelo aku la na kanaka a pau o ka Iuda i na kanaka o ka Iseraela, no ka mea, ua hookahi kona hanauna me ko makou; heaha ka oukou e huhu mai nei ia mea? Ua ai iki anei makou i ka ke alii? a ua haawi mai anei ia i ka manawalea ia makou?
42And all the men of Judah answered the men of Israel, Because the king is near of kin to us: wherefore then be ye angry for this matter? have we eaten at all of the king’s cost ? or hath he given us any gift?
43Olelo aku la na kanaka o ka Iseraela i na kanaka o ka Iuda, i ae la, He umi mau hakina o ke alii ka makou, a he nui aku ka makou ia Davida i ka oukou: no ke aha hoi oukou i hoowahawaha ai ia makou, i lilo ole ka makou olelo no ka hoihoi ana mai i ke alii i ka mea mua? A o ka olelo ana a na kanaka o ka Iuda, he ikaika aku ia i ka olelo ana a na kanaka o ka Iseraela.
43And the men of Israel answered the men of Judah, and said, We have ten parts in the king, and we have also more right in David than ye: why then did ye despise us, that our advice should not be first had in bringing back our king? And the words of the men of Judah were fiercer than the words of the men of Israel.
