Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
1But after a while, in the time of wheat harvest, Samson visited his wife with a young goat. He said, “I will go in to my wife’s room.” But her father wouldn’t allow him to go in.
1A MAUOPE iho, i na la o ka hoiliili ana i ka hua palaoa, hele aku la o Samesona, me ke kaokeiki, e ike i kana wahine; i iho la, E komo aku no wau iloko o ke keena i ka'u wahine. Aole nae i haawi mai kona makuakane ia ia ke komo iloko.
2Her father said, “I most certainly thought that you utterly hated her; therefore I gave her to your companion. Isn’t her younger sister more beautiful than she? Please, take her instead.”
2I mai la kona makuakane, Manao maopopo ae la au, ua hoowahawaha loa oe ia ia nei, nolaila haawi aku au ia ia i kou hoa. Aole anei i oi aku ka maikai o kona kaikaina mamua o kona? Nau ia, ea, a kaawale keia.
3Samson said to them, “This time I will be blameless in the case of the Philistines when I harm them.”
3I iho la o Samesona no lakou, Aole au e hewa e like me ko Pilisetia, ke hana au i mea e poino ai lakou.
4Samson went and caught three hundred foxes, and took torches, and turned tail to tail, and put a torch in the middle between every two tails.
4Hele aku la o Samesona, hopu iho la i na alopeke, ekolu haneri, a lawe i na lamaku, a hui ae la i kahi huelo i kahi huelo, a waiho iho la i ka lamaku iwaena o na huelo elua.
5When he had set the torches on fire, he let them go into the standing grain of the Philistines, and burned up both the shocks and the standing grain, and also the olive groves.
5A puhi iho ia i na lama i ke ahi, alaila kuu aku la, e hele lakou iloko o ka hua palaoa o ko Pilisetia e ku ana, a puhi i ke ahi i na puu hua palaoa a me ka hua palaoa e ku ana, a me na pawaina, a me na oliva.
6Then the Philistines said, “Who has done this?” They said, “Samson, the son-in-law of the Timnite, because he has taken his wife and given her to his companion.” The Philistines came up, and burned her and her father with fire.
6Alaila, ninau ae la ko Pilisetia, Nawai i hana i keia? I mai la lakou, Na Samesona, na ka hunona a kekahi o ko Timenata, no ka mea, na lawe oia i ka ia la wahine, a ua haawi ia ia na kona hoa. Pii mai la ko Pilisetia, a puhi iho la i ua wahine la, a me kona makuakane i ke ahi.
7Samson said to them, “If you behave like this, surely I will take revenge on you, and after that I will cease.”
7I ae la o Samesona ia lakou, Ua hana no oukou i keia, aka, e hoopai aku au ia oukou, a mahope iho, oki au.
8He struck them hip and thigh with a great slaughter; and he went down and lived in the cave in Etam’s rock.
8Luku ae la ia ia lakou, ke kikala a me ka uha, he luku nui loa. Alaila iho aku la ia a noho ma kekahi ana o ka pohaku, ma Etama.
9Then the Philistines went up, encamped in Judah, and spread themselves in Lehi.
9Alaila hele ae la ko Pilisetia, a hoomoana iho la ma ko Iuda, a hoopalahalaha aku la ma Lehi.
10The men of Judah said, “Why have you come up against us?” They said, “We have come up to bind Samson, to do to him as he has done to us.”
10Ninau aku la na kanaka o ka Iuda, No ke aha la oukou i pii mai nei e ku e ia makou? I mai la lakou, Ua pii mai nei makou e nakinaki ia Samesona e hana aku ia ia, e like me kana i hana mai ai ia makou.
11Then three thousand men of Judah went down to the cave in Etam’s rock, and said to Samson, “Don’t you know that the Philistines are rulers over us? What then is this that you have done to us?” He said to them, “As they did to me, so I have done to them.”
11Alaila, iho aku la ekolu tausani kanaka o ka Iuda i ke ana iloko o ka pohaku ma Etama, i aku la ia Samesona, Aole anei oe i ike, o ko Pilisetia no ko kakou poe haku? Heaha keia mea au i hana mai nei ia kakou? I mai la kela ia lakou, E like me ka lakou i hana mai ai ia'u, pela no wau i hana aku ai ia lakou.
12They said to him, “We have come down to bind you, that we may deliver you into the hand of the Philistines.” Samson said to them, “Swear to me that you will not attack me yourselves.”
12I aku la lakou ia ia, Ua iho mai nei makou e nakinaki ia oe, a e haawi aku ia oe i ka lima o ko Pilisetia. I mai la o Samesona ia lakou, E hoohiki mai oukou ia'u, aole oukou e pepehi mai ia'u.
13They spoke to him, saying, “No, but we will bind you securely and deliver you into their hands; but surely we will not kill you.” They bound him with two new ropes, and brought him up from the rock.
13Olelo aku la lakou ia ia, i aku la, Aole, aku, e nakinaki makou ia oe a paa, a haawi aku ia oe i ko lakou lima, aole loa makou e pepehi aku ia oe. Nakinaki iho la lakou ia ia i na kaula hou elua, a lawe mai ia ia, mai ka pohaku mai.
14When he came to Lehi, the Philistines shouted as they met him. Then the LORD’s Spirit came mightily on him, and the ropes that were on his arms became as flax that was burned with fire; and his bands dropped from off his hands.
14Hele ae la ia a Lehi, hooho ku e mai la ko Pilisetia ia ia; a kau mai la ka Uhane o Iehova maluna ona, lilo iho la na kaula maluna o kona mau lima e like me ke olona i pau i ke ahi, a popo iho la kona mea paa ma kona lima.
15He found a fresh jawbone of a donkey, put out his hand, took it, and struck a thousand men with it.
15A loaa ia ia ka iwia o ka hoki, he iwia maka, hohola aku la i kona lima, lalau iho la ia mea, a me ia no ia i luku aku ai i hookahi tausani kanaka.
16Samson said, “With the jawbone of a donkey, heaps on heaps; with the jawbone of a donkey I have struck a thousand men.”
16I iho la o Samesona, Me ka iwia o ka hoki, o ka puu o na puu, me ka iwia o ka hoki ka'u i luku aku ai i hookahi tausani kanaka.
17When he had finished speaking, he threw the jawbone out of his hand; and that place was called Ramath Lehi.
17A pau kana olelo ana, hoolei aku la ia i ka iwia mailoko aku o kona lima, a kapa aku ia wahi o Ramatalehi.
18He was very thirsty, and called on the LORD and said, “You have given this great deliverance by the hand of your servant; and now shall I die of thirst, and fall into the hands of the uncircumcised?”
18Makewai loa iho la ia, a hea aku la ia Iehova, i aku la, Ua haawi mai oe i keia ola nui ma ka lima o kau kauwa nei; a e make anei au i ka makewai, a haule iloko o ka lima o ka poe i okipoepoe ole ia?
19But God split the hollow place that is in Lehi, and water came out of it. When he had drunk, his spirit came again, and he revived. Therefore its name was called En Hakkore, which is in Lehi, to this day.
19Wahi ae la ke Akua i puka maloko o ka iwia, a puka mai la ka wai, mailoko mai o ia mea; a inu ia, alaila, hoi mai ka hanu, a ola ae la ia: nolaila, kapa aku la oia i ka inoa o ia wahi o Enehakore, aia ma Lehi, a hiki mai i keia la.
20He judged Israel twenty years in the days of the Philistines.
20Nana no i hooponopono i ka Iseraela i na la o ko Pilisetia, i na makahiki he iwakalua.
