1 Samuel 29
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
1Now the Philistines gathered together all their hosts to Aphek; and the Israelites pitched by the fountain which is in Jezreel.
1HOAKOAKOA ae la na Pilisetia i ko lakou poe kaua a pau ma Apeka: a hoomoana ae la ka Iseraela ma ka waipuna aia ma Iezereela.
2And the lords of the Philistines passed on by hundreds, and by thousands; and David and his men passed on in the rearward with Achish.
2A hele ae la na haku o na Pilisetia ma na haneri, a ma na tausani: aka, o Davida a me kona poe kanaka hele lakou mahope me Akisa.
3Then said the princes of the Philistines: 'What do these Hebrews here?' And Achish said unto the princes of the Philistines: 'Is not this David, the servant of Saul the king of Israel, who hath been with me these days or these years, and I have found no fault in him since he fell away unto me unto this day?'
3Olelo mai la na'lii o na Pilisetia, I mea aha la keia poe Hebera? I aku la o Akisa i na'lii o na Pilisetia, Aole anei o Davida keia, ke kauwa a Saula, ke alii o ka Iseraela, ka mea i noho me au i neia mau la a i neia mau makahiki, aole i loaa ia'u ka mea i hewa ai oia mai ka wa i noho ai ia me au a hiki i keia la?
4But the princes of the Philistines were wroth with him; and the princes of the Philistines said unto him: 'Make the man return, that he may go back to his place where thou hast appointed him, and let him not go down with us to battle, lest in the battle he become an adversary to us; for wherewith should this fellow reconcile himself unto his lord? should it not be with the heads of these men?
4Huhu iho la na'lii o na Pilisetia ia ia, a i aku la na'lii o na Pilisetia ia ia, E hoihoi aku oe i keia kanaka ma kona wahi au i hoonoho ai ia ia, a, mai hele pu ia me kakou i ke kaua, o lilo ia i enemi no kakou i ke kaua ana: no ka mea, me ke aha la e hooluolu ai ia i kona haku? Aole anei me na poo o keia poe kanaka?
5Is not this David, of whom they sang one to another in dances, saying: Saul hath slain his thousands, and David his ten thousands?'
5Aole anei o Davida keia a lakou i mele ai i kekahi i kekahi me ka haa ana, i ka i ana ae, He mau tausani ka Saula i pepehi, he umi tausani ka Davida?
6Then Achish called David, and said unto him: 'As the LORD liveth, thou hast been upright, and thy going out and thy coming in with me in the host is good in my sight; for I have not found evil in thee since the day of thy coming unto me unto this day; nevertheless the lords favour thee not.
6Alaila hea aku la o Akisa ia Davida, i aku la ia ia, He oiaio, ma ke ola o Iehova, he pono kou, a o kou hele ana'ku, a o kou hoi ana mai me au ma ke kaua, ua maikai no ia imua o ko'u maka: no ka mea, aole i loaa ia'u ka hewa iloko ou mai ka manawa au i hele mai ai io'u nei, a hiki i keia la: aka, aole ou pono imua o na haku.
7Wherefore now return, and go in peace, that thou displease not the lords of the Philistines.'
7No ia mea, e hoi oe, a e hele me ke aloha, i ole ai oe e hewa imua o na haku o na Pilisetia.
8And David said unto Achish: 'But what have I done? and what hast thou found in thy servant so long as I have been before thee unto this day, that I may not go and fight against the enemies of my lord the king?'
8I aku la o Davida ia Akisa, Heaha ka'u i hana'i? a heaha la i loaa'i ia oe iloko o kau kauwa i ko'u manawa i noho pu ai me oe a hiki i keia la, i ole ai au e hele e kaua aku i na enemi o kuu haku o ke alii?
9And Achish answered and said to David: 'I know that thou art good in my sight, as an angel of God; notwithstanding the princes of the Philistines have said: He shall not go up with us to the battle.
9Olelo mai la o Akisa, i mai la ia Davida, Ua ike au, he pono kou imua o'u me he anela la o ke Akua; aka, ua i mai na haku o na Pilisetia, Aole ia e hele pu me kakou i ke kaua.
10Wherefore now rise up early in the morning with the servants of thy lord that are come with thee; and as soon as ye are up early in the morning, and have light, depart.'
10Ano hoi, e ala ae oe i kakahiaka nui me na kauwa a kou haku i hele pu mai me oe: a i ko oukou ala ana i kakahiaka nui, a malamalama, alaila hele aku.
11So David rose up early, he and his men, to depart in the morning, to return into the land of the Philistines. And the Philistines went up to Jezreel.
11A ala ae la o Davida a me kona poe kanaka i kakahiaka nui e hele, a hoi aku i ka aina o na Pilisetia. A pii ae la na Pilisetia ma Iezereela.
