Judges 3
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
1Now these are the nations which the LORD left, to prove Israel by them, even as many as had not known all the wars of Canaan;
1EIA na lahuikanaka a Iehova i waiho ai e hoao i ka Iseraela, i ka poe a pau i ike ole i ke kaua ana a pau ma Kanaana;
2only that the generations of the children of Israel might know, to teach them war, at the least such as beforetime knew nothing thereof;
2I mea wale no e ike ai na hanauna o na mamo a Iseraela, e ao aku ia lakou i ke kaua, i ka poe hoi i ike ole ia mea mamua;
3namely, the five lords of the Philistines, and all the Canaanites, and the Zidonians, and the Hivites that dwelt in mount Lebanon, from mount Baal-hermon unto the entrance of Hamath.
3Elima alii o ko Pilisetia, a me ko Kanaana a pau, a me ko Zidona, a me ko Hevi i noho ma ka mauna o Lebanona, mai ka mauna mai o Baala-Heremona a hiki i Hamata.
4And they were there, to prove Israel by them, to know whether they would hearken unto the commandments of the LORD, which He commanded their fathers by the hand of Moses.
4He mea lakou e hoao ai i ka Iseraela, i ikeia ko lakou hoolohe a me ka ole i na kauoha a Iehova ana i kauoha mai ai i ko lakou poe makua, ma ka lima o Mose.
5And the children of Israel dwelt among the Canaanites, the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites;
5Noho pu iho la no na mamo a Iseraela me ko Kanaana, a me ka Heta, a me ka Amora, a me ka Pereza, a me ka Hevi, a me ka Iebusi.
6and they took their daughters to be their wives, and gave their own daughters to their sons, and served their gods.
6A lawe no lakou i ka lakou kaikamahine, i wahine na lakou, a haawi no i ka lakou kaikamahine iho i na keikikane a kela poe kanaka; a malama no i ko lakou poe akua.
7And the children of Israel did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, and forgot the LORD their God, and served the Baalim and the Asheroth.
7Hana hewa iho la na mamo a Iseraela imua o Iehova, a hoopoina ae la ia Iehova, i ko lakou Akua, a malama aku la ia Baala a me Asetarota.
8Therefore the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel, and He gave them over into the hand of Cushan-rishathaim king of Aram-naharaim; and the children of Israel served Cushan-rishathaim eight years.
8Wela iho la ka huhu o Iehova i ka Iseraela, a hoolilo ae la oia ia lakou i ka lima o Kusanerisataima, ke alii o Mesopotamia, a hookauwa aku na mamo a Iseraela na Kusanerisataima, i ewalu makahiki
9And when the children of Israel cried unto the LORD, the LORD raised up a saviour to the children of Israel, who saved them, even Othniel the son of Kenaz, Caleb's younger brother.
9A kahea aku la na mamo a Iseraela ia Iehova, alaila, hoala mai o Iehova i mea nana e hoola'e i na mamo a Iseraela, a hoola ae la oia ia lakou, o Oteniela, ke keiki a Kenaza, ke kaikaina o Kaleba.
10And the spirit of the LORD came upon him, and he judged Israel; and he went out to war, and the LORD delivered Cushan-rishathaim king of Aram into his hand; and his hand prevailed against Cushan-rishathaim.
10Kau mai ka Uhane o Iehova maluna ona, a hooponopono ia i ka Iseraela, a hele aku la i ke kaua; a haawi mai la o Iehova ma kona lima, ia Kusanerisataima, ke alii o Mesopotamia. A lanakila ae la kona lima maluna o Kusanerisataima.
11And the land had rest forty years. And Othniel the son of Kenaz died.
11Kuapapanui iho la ka aina i hookahi kanaha makahiki; a make iho la o Oteniela, ke keiki a Kenaza.
12And the children of Israel again did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD; and the LORD strengthened Eglon the king of Moab against Israel, because they had done that which was evil in the sight of the LORD.
12Hana hewa hou aku la na mamo a Iseraela imua o Iehova. A hooikaika mai la o Iehova ia Egelona i ke alii o Moaba, e ku e i ka Iseraela, no ka mea, ua hana hewa lakou imua o Iehova.
13And he gathered unto him the children of Ammon and Amalek; and he went and smote Israel, and they possessed the city of palm-trees.
13Hoakoakoa mai la oia io na la i na mamo a Amona, a me Amaleka, hele ae la, a luku aku la i ka Iseraela, a loaa ia ia ke kulanakauhale o na laau pama.
14And the children of Israel served Eglon the king of Moab eighteen years.
14Hookauwa aku ka poe mamo a Iseraela na Egelona, ke Alii o Moaba, i umikumamawalu makahiki.
15But when the children of Israel cried unto the LORD, the LORD raised them up a saviour, Ehud the son of Gera, the Benjamite, a man left-handed; and the children of Israel sent a present by him unto Eglon the king of Moab.
15A i ka wa i kahea aku ai na mamo a Iseraela ia Iehova, alaila, hoala mai o Iehova i mea e hoopakele ae ia lakou, o Ehuda, ke keiki a Gera, he mamo na Beniamina, he kanaka lima hema: a ma kona lima i hoouna aku ai na mamo a Iseraela i makana no Egelona ke alii o Moaba.
16And Ehud made him a sword which had two edges, of a cubit length; and he girded it under his raiment upon his right thigh.
16Hana iho la o Ehuda i pahikaua oi lua nana, hookahi kubita ka loihi, a omau ae la ma kona uha akau, maloko o kona kapa.
17And he offered the present unto Eglon king of Moab — now Eglon was a very fat man.
17A lawe aku la ia i ka makana ia Egelona, i ke alii o Moaba. He kanaka konahua loa o Egelona.
18And when he had made an end of offering the present, he sent away the people that bore the present.
18A pau ka haawi ana i ka makana, hoihoi aku la ia i ka poe kanaka i lawe i ka makana.
19But he himself turned back from the quarries that were by Gilgal, and said: 'I have a secret errand unto thee, O king.' And he said: 'Keep silence.' And all that stood by him went out from him.
19Hoi hou aku la ia, mai na kii o Gilegala aku, i aku la, He olelo malu ka'u nau, e ke alii. I ae la kela, E noho malie. A o ka poe a pau e ku pu ana me ia, hele aku la lakou i waho.
20And Ehud came unto him; and he was sitting by himself alone in his cool upper chamber. And Ehud said: 'I have a message from God unto thee.' And he arose out of his seat.
20Hele mai la o Ehuda io na la; e noho ana ia ma ke keena hooluolu maluna; nona wale no ia wahi I ae la o Ehuda ia ia, He mea ka'u ia oe, na ke Akua mai. Ku mai la oia, mai kona noho mai.
21And Ehud put forth his left hand, and took the sword from his right thigh, and thrust it into his belly.
21Hooholo iho la o Ehuda i kona lima hema, lalau iho la i ka pahi ma kona uha akau, a hou aku la iloko o kona opu.
22And the haft also went in after the blade; and the fat closed upon the blade, for he drew not the sword out of his belly; and it came out behind.
22Komo pu aku la ke au mahope a ka maka, a paa mai la ke konahua maluna o ka maka, aole i hiki ia ia ke unuhi i ka pahi mailoko mai o kona opu; a hu mai la ka lepo.
23Then Ehud went forth into the porch, and shut the doors of the upper chamber upon him, and locked them.
23Alaila, hele aku la o Ehuda iwaho o ka lanai, a pani ae la i na puka o ke keena, a hoopaa iho la.
24Now when he was gone out, his servants came; and they saw, and, behold, the doors of the upper chamber were locked; and they said: 'Surely he is covering his feet in the cabinet of the cool chamber.'
24A hala aku la ia iwaho, hele mai la na kauwa a Egelona, nana ae la, aia hoi, ua paa na puka o ke keena. I iho la lakou, Ke uhi wale nei oia i kona wawae maloko o ke keena hooluolu.
25And they tarried till they were ashamed; and, behold, he opened not the doors of the upper chamber; therefore they took the key, and opened them; and, behold, their lord was fallen down dead on the earth.
25Kakali iho la lakou, a hilahila wale, aia hoi, aole ia i wehe mai i na puka o ke keena; a lawe lakou i ke ki, a wehe ae la, aia hoi, ua hina ko lakou haku ilalo i ka honua, ua make.
26And Ehud escaped while they lingered, having passed beyond the quarries, and escaped unto Seirah.
26Pakele o Ehuda, i ko lakou kakali ana, a hele aku la, ma o aku o na kii, a hiki i Seirata.
27And it came to pass, when he was come, that he blew a horn in the hill-country of Ephraim, and the children of Israel went down with him from the hill-country, and he before them.
27A hiki aku la ia, puhi iho la ia i ka pu ma na mauna o Eperaima, a iho pu aku la na mamo a Iseraela me ia, mai ka mauna mai, a oia ma ko lakou alo.
28And he said unto them: 'Follow after me; for the LORD hath delivered your enemies the Moabites into your hand.' And they went down after him, and took the fords of the Jordan against the Moabites, and suffered not a man to pass over.
28I aku la ia ia lakou, E hahai oukou mamuli o'u, no ka mea, ua haawi mai o Iehova i ko oukou poe enemi, i ka Moaba iloko o ko oukou lima. A hahai aku la lakou mamuli ona, a lilo ia lakou na ahua o Ioredane, e ku pono ana i Moaba, aole i ae aku i kekahi kanaka ke hele i kela aoao.
29And they smote of Moab at that time about ten thousand men, every lusty man, and every man of valour; and there escaped not a man.
29Luku aku la lakou i ko Moaba ia manawa, i umi paha tausani kanaka, he poe puipui wale no, ua koa no lakou a pau; aole hookahi kanaka i pakele.
30So Moab was subdued that day under the hand of Israel. And the land had rest fourscore years.
30Hoohaahaaia ko Moaba ia la maialo iho o ka lima o ka Iseraela. Kuapapanui iho la ka aina, i kanawalu makahiki.
31And after him was Shamgar the son of Anath, who smote of the Philistines six hundred men with an ox-goad; and he also saved Israel.
31Mahope iho ona, ku mai o Samegara, ke keiki a Anata, nana i luku aku i eono haneri kanaka o ko Pilisetia i ke o bipi; a hoopakele ae la hoi oia i ka Iseraela.
