I Samuel 14

Now it came to pass upon a day, that Jonathan the son of Saul said unto the young man that bare his armour, Come, and let us go over to the Philistines' garrison, that is on the other side. But he told not his father.

Na i tetahi o aua ra ka mea a Honatana, tama a Haora, ki te taitama e mau ana i ana patu, Haere mai, taua ka whiti atu ki nga hoia pupuri a nga Pirihitini i tawahi ra. Otiia kihai i korerotia e ia ki tona papa.

And Saul tarried in the uttermost part of Gibeah under a pomegranate tree which is in Migron: and the people that were with him were about six hundred men;

A i tera pito o Kipea a Haora e noho ana i raro i tetahi pamekaranete i Mikirono: tata tonu ana tangata ki te ono nga rau;

And Ahiah, the son of Ahitub, I–chabod's brother, the son of Phinehas, the son of Eli, the LORD'S priest in Shiloh, wearing an ephod. And the people knew not that Jonathan was gone.

Me Ahia ano hoki, tama a Ahitupu, tuakana o Ikaporo, tama a Pinehaha, tama a Eri tohunga a Ihowa i Hiro, ko te kaikakahu ia o te epora. Na kihai te iwi i mohio kua riro a Honatana.

And between the passages, by which Jonathan sought to go over unto the Philistines' garrison, there was a sharp rock on the one side, and a sharp rock on the other side: and the name of the one was Bozez, and the name of the other Seneh.

Na, i waenga o nga whitinga i whai ai a Honatana kia whiti atu ki nga hoia pupuri a nga Pirihitini, tera tetahi pari kohatu i tetahi taha, he pari kohatu hoki i tetahi taha: ko te ingoa o tetahi ko Potete, ko te ingoa o tetahi ko Henehe.

The forefront of the one was situate northward over against Michmash, and the other southward over against Gibeah.

I te raki tetahi pari e tu ana, i te ritenga atu o Mikimaha; i te tonga tetahi, i te ritenga atu o Kipea.

And Jonathan said to the young man that bare his armour, Come, and let us go over unto the garrison of these uncircumcised: it may be that the LORD will work for us: for there is no restraint to the LORD to save by many or by few.

Na ka mea a Honatana ki te taitama e mau ana i ana patu, Haere mai, taua ka haere ki nga hoia o enei kokotikore: tera pea a Ihowa e mahi mo taua: kahore he aha ki a Ihowa kia riro ma te tokomaha, ma te tokoiti ranei e whakaora.

And his armourbearer said unto him, Do all that is in thine heart: turn thee; behold, I am with thee according to thy heart.

Ano ra ko te kaimau o ana patu ki a ia, Meatia nga mea katoa e paingia ana e tou ngakau: anga atu, tenei ahau hei hoa mou, hei pera me ta tou ngakau e pai ai.

Then said Jonathan, Behold, we will pass over unto these men, and we will discover ourselves unto them.

Ano ra ko Honatana, Nana, me haere atu taua ki nga tangata ra, me whakaputa atu hoki ki a ratou.

If they say thus unto us, Tarry until we come to you; then we will stand still in our place, and will not go up unto them.

Ki te penei mai ta ratou ki a taua, Tu marie, kia tae atu ra ano matou ki a korua; na me tu taua i to taua turanga, e kore ano e piki ki a ratou.

But if they say thus, Come up unto us; then we will go up: for the LORD hath delivered them into our hand: and this shall be a sign unto us.

Engari ki te penei ta ratou ki, Piki ake ki a matou, ko reira taua piki atu ai; no te mea kua homai ratou e Ihowa ki o taua ringa: a ko tenei hei tohu ki a taua.

And both of them discovered themselves unto the garrison of the Philistines: and the Philistines said, Behold, the Hebrews come forth out of the holes where they had hid themselves.

Na ka puta raua tokorua ki nga hoia pupuri a nga Pirihitini: a ka mea nga Pirihitini, Nana, ko nga Hiperu e puta mai ana i roto i nga rua i piri ai ratou.

And the men of the garrison answered Jonathan and his armourbearer, and said, Come up to us, and we will shew you a thing. And Jonathan said unto his armourbearer, Come up after me: for the LORD hath delivered them into the hand of Israel.

Na ka oho nga hoia pupuri ki a Honatana raua ko tana kaimau patu, ka mea, Piki ake ki a matou kia whakakitea ai tetahi mea e matou ki a korua. Na ka mea a Honatana ki te kaimau o ana patu, Piki ake i muri i ahau; kua homai hoki ratou e Ihowa ki te ringa o Iharaira.

And Jonathan climbed up upon his hands and upon his feet, and his armourbearer after him: and they fell before Jonathan; and his armourbearer slew after him.

Na ka piki atu a Honatana, he mea ngoki atu, me tana kaimau patu i muri i a ia: na hinga ana ratou i a Honatana, me te patu ano te kaimau patu i muri i a ia.

And that first slaughter, which Jonathan and his armourbearer made, was about twenty men, within as it were an half acre of land, which a yoke of oxen might plow.

Na, ko te patunga tuatahi i patu ai a Honatana raua ko tana kaimau patu, tata tonu ki te rua tekau nga tangata: ko te nui o taua wahi, me te mea kei te hawhe eka whenua.

And there was trembling in the host, in the field, and among all the people: the garrison, and the spoilers, they also trembled, and the earth quaked: so it was a very great trembling.

Na ka pa te wiri ki te puni, ki era i te parae, ki te iwi katoa ano hoki: ko nga hoia, me nga kaipahua, i wiri ano hoki ratou; i ru ano te whenua: nui rawa te wiri.

And the watchmen of Saul in Gibeah of Benjamin looked; and, behold, the multitude melted away, and they went on beating down one another.

A ka titiro nga tutei a Haora i Kipea o Pineamine; na, kua papahoro te ope, me te haere ano ratou, kopiko atu, kopiko mai.

Then said Saul unto the people that were with him, Number now, and see who is gone from us. And when they had numbered, behold, Jonathan and his armourbearer were not there.

Katahi a Haora ka mea ki te iwi i reira, i a ia, Tatauria tatou kia kitea ko wai kua riro. A, no ka tatauria e ratou, na kahore a Honatana raua ko tana kaimau patu i reira.

And Saul said unto Ahiah, Bring hither the ark of God. For the ark of God was at that time with the children of Israel.

Na ka mea a Haora ki a Ahia, Kawea mai te aaka a te Atua. I nga tama hoki a Iharaira te aaka a te Atua i taua wa.

And it came to pass, while Saul talked unto the priest, that the noise that was in the host of the Philistines went on and increased: and Saul said unto the priest, Withdraw thine hand.

A, i a Haora e korero ana ki te tohunga, ka tino nui haere te ngangau i te puni o nga Pirihitini: na ka ki a Haora ki te tohunga, Pepeke ake tou ringa.

And Saul and all the people that were with him assembled themselves, and they came to the battle: and, behold, every man's sword was against his fellow, and there was a very great discomfiture.

Na ka huihui a Haora ratou ko tona nuinga, a haere ana ki te whawhai: na e anga mai ana tera te hoari a tetahi, a tetahi, ki tona hoa, ki tona hoa: nui atu te pokaikaha.

Moreover the Hebrews that were with the Philistines before that time, which went up with them into the camp from the country round about, even they also turned to be with the Israelites that were with Saul and Jonathan.

Na ko nga Hiperu i roto i nga Pirihitini i mua atu, i haere tahi atu nei me ratou ki te puni i te whenua i tetahi taha, i tetahi taha; na huri ana ano hoki ratou ki te taha i a Iharaira, ki nga hoa o Haora raua ko Honatana.

Likewise all the men of Israel which had hid themselves in mount Ephraim, when they heard that the Philistines fled, even they also followed hard after them in the battle.

Na pera ano nga tangata katoa o Iharaira i piri nei ki te whenua pukepuke o Eparaima, i to ratou rongonga kua whati nga Pirihitini, na kei te whai haere ano hoki i a ratou i roto i te pakanga.

So the LORD saved Israel that day: and the battle passed over unto Beth–aven.

Heoi whakaorangia ana a Iharaira, i taua ra e Ihowa: a puta ke ana te whawhai ki Peteawene.

And the men of Israel were distressed that day: for Saul had adjured the people, saying, Cursed be the man that eateth any food until evening, that I may be avenged on mine enemies. So none of the people tasted any food.

A i hemanawa nga tangata o Iharaira i taua ra: i whakaoati hoki a Haora i te iwi, i mea, Ki te kai tetahi tangata i te kai a ahiahi noa, ka kanga ia, kia whai utu ra ano ahau i oku hoariri. Na reira kihai tetahi o te iwi i anga ki te kai.

And all they of the land came to a wood; and there was honey upon the ground.

Na ko te haerenga o nga tangata katoa o te whenua ki tetahi ngahere; a he honi kei runga i te whenua.

And when the people were come into the wood, behold, the honey dropped; but no man put his hand to his mouth: for the people feared the oath.

A, no te taenga o te iwi ki te ngahere, na e turuturu iho ana te honi; otiia kihai i pa te ringa o tetahi tangata ki tona waha; i wehi hoki te iwi i te oati.

But Jonathan heard not when his father charged the people with the oath: wherefore he put forth the end of the rod that was in his hand, and dipped it in an honeycomb, and put his hand to his mouth; and his eyes were enlightened.

Ko Honatana ia kihai i rongo i te whakaoati a tona papa i te iwi: na ka kokiritia e ia te pito o te tokotoko i tona ringa, a toua ana ki roto ki te honikoma, whakahokia ana e ia tona ringa ki tona waha, a ka marama ona kanohi.

Then answered one of the people, and said, Thy father straitly charged the people with an oath, saying, Cursed be the man that eateth any food this day. And the people were faint.

Katahi ka oho tetahi o te iwi, a ka mea, I tino whakaoatitia te iwi e tou papa; i mea ia, Kia kanga te tangata e kai ana i tetahi kai aianei; a e hemo ana te iwi.

Then said Jonathan, My father hath troubled the land: see, I pray you, how mine eyes have been enlightened, because I tasted a little of this honey.

Katahi a Honatana ka mea, Raru ana te whenua nei i toku papa: titiro hoki, kua marama oku kanohi, noku i kai i tetahi wahi iti o te honi nei.

How much more, if haply the people had eaten freely to day of the spoil of their enemies which they found? for had there not been now a much greater slaughter among the Philistines?

Tera noa ake mehemea pea i kai noa atu te iwi inaianei i nga mea i pahuatia mai i o ratou hoariri i tupono atu ai ratou? ko tenei kahore i rahi te parekura o nga Pirihitini.

And they smote the Philistines that day from Michmash to Aijalon: and the people were very faint.

Na patua iho e ratou nga Pirihitini i taua rangi i Mikimaha atu a tae noa ki Aitarono: a e tino hemo ana te iwi.

And the people flew upon the spoil, and took sheep, and oxen, and calves, and slew them on the ground: and the people did eat them with the blood.

Na ko te rerenga atu o te iwi ki nga taonga; ka mau ki nga hipi, ki nga kau, ki nga kuao kau, patua iho ki te whenua, kainga tahitia ana e te iwi me nga toto.

Then they told Saul, saying, Behold, the people sin against the LORD, in that they eat with the blood. And he said, Ye have transgressed: roll a great stone unto me this day.

Katahi ka korerotia ki a Haora ka meatia, Nana, kua hara te iwi ki a Ihowa, e kainga tahitia ana ta ratou kai me nga toto. Na ka mea ia, He mahi hianga ta koutou: hurihia mai he kohatu nui ki ahau aianei.

And Saul said, Disperse yourselves among the people, and say unto them, Bring me hither every man his ox, and every man his sheep, and slay them here, and eat; and sin not against the LORD in eating with the blood. And all the people brought every man his ox with him that night, and slew them there.

Ka mea ano a Haora, Tomotomo atu koutou ki roto ki te iwi mea atu hoki ki a ratou, Kawea mai ki ahau, e tera, e tera, tana kau, tana hipi, ka patu ai ki konei hei kai ma koutou; kaua hoki e hara ki a Ihowa, e kai i te toto. Katahi ka kawea mai e te iwi katoa i taua po te kau a tena, a tena, a patua iho ana ki reira.

And Saul built an altar unto the LORD: the same was the first altar that he built unto the LORD.

Na ka hanga e Haora he aata ma Ihowa. Koia tenei ko te aata tuatahi i hanga e ia ma Ihowa.

And Saul said, Let us go down after the Philistines by night, and spoil them until the morning light, and let us not leave a man of them. And they said, Do whatsoever seemeth good unto thee. Then said the priest, Let us draw near hither unto God.

Na ka mea a Haora, Tatou ka haere ki raro, ka whai i nga Pirihitini i te po, ka pahua i a ratou a marama noa te ata; kaua ano e waiho tetahi tangata o ratou. Na ka mea ratou, Meatia ra nga mea katoa e pai ana ki tou whakaaro. Na ka mea ake te to hunga, Kia whakatata tatou ki a Ihowa.

And Saul asked counsel of God, Shall I go down after the Philistines? wilt thou deliver them into the hand of Israel? But he answered him not that day.

Na ka tono whakaaro a Haora i te Atua, Me haere ranei ahau ki raro, ki te whai i nga Pirihitini? e homai ranei ratou e koe ki te ringa o Iharaira? Otiia kahore he kupu i whakahokia ki a ia i taua ra.

And Saul said, Draw ye near hither, all the chief of the people: and know and see wherein this sin hath been this day.

Na ka mea a Haora, Neke mai, e nga rangatira katoa o te iwi: kia mohio ai, kia kite ai koutou no hea tenei hara i tenei ra.

For, as the LORD liveth, which saveth Israel, though it be in Jonathan my son, he shall surely die. But there was not a man among all the people that answered him.

Ta te mea, e ora ana a Ihowa e whakaora nei i a Iharaira, ahakoa no taku tama, no Honatana, ka mate ia, mate rawa. Otiia kahore he tangata o te iwi katoa hei whakahoki kupu ki a ia.

Then said he unto all Israel, Be ye on one side, and I and Jonathan my son will be on the other side. And the people said unto Saul, Do what seemeth good unto thee.

Katahi ia ka mea ki a Iharaira katoa, Hei tetahi taha koutou, hei tetahi taha maua ko taku tama, ko Honatana. Na ka mea te iwi ki a Haora, Meatia ra te mea e pai ana ki tou whakaaro.

Therefore Saul said unto the LORD God of Israel, Give a perfect lot. And Saul and Jonathan were taken: but the people escaped.

Katahi a Haora ka mea ki a Ihowa, ki te Atua o Iharaira, Kia tika te homaitanga o te rota. Na ka mau ko Honatana raua ko Haora; i mawhiti hoki te iwi.

And Saul said, Cast lots between me and Jonathan my son. And Jonathan was taken.

Na ka mea a Haora, maka te rota mo maua ko taku tama, ko Honatana. Na ka mau ko Honatana.

Then Saul said to Jonathan, Tell me what thou hast done. And Jonathan told him, and said, I did but taste a little honey with the end of the rod that was in mine hand, and, lo, I must die.

Katahi ka mea a Haora ki a Honatana, Whakaaturia mai ki ahau, i aha koe. Katahi ka whakaaturia e Honatana ki a ia, ka mea, He tika i whakamatau kau atu ahau i tetahi wahi iti o te honi ki te pito o te tokotoko i toku ringa; na, ka mate nei ahau.

And Saul answered, God do so and more also: for thou shalt surely die, Jonathan.

Ano ra ko Haora, Kia meatia tenei e te Atua, tera atu ano hoki; ka mate rawa hoki koe, e Honatana.

And the people said unto Saul, Shall Jonathan die, who hath wrought this great salvation in Israel? God forbid: as the LORD liveth, there shall not one hair of his head fall to the ground; for he hath wrought with God this day. So the people rescued Jonathan, that he died not.

Na ka mea te iwi ki a Haora, Kia mate a Honatana nana nei tenei whakaoranga nui i roto i a Iharaira? Kahore ra hoki. E ora ana a Ihowa, e kore e taka tetahi makawe o tona matenga ki te whenua; i te mahi tahi nei hoki ia me te Atua i tenei ra. He oi whakaorangia ana a Honatana e te iwi, a kihai i mate.

Then Saul went up from following the Philistines: and the Philistines went to their own place.

Katahi ka hoki a Haora i te whai i nga Pirihitini; a haere ana nga Pirihitini ki to ratou na wahi.

So Saul took the kingdom over Israel, and fought against all his enemies on every side, against Moab, and against the children of Ammon, and against Edom, and against the kings of Zobah, and against the Philistines: and whithersoever he turned himself, he vexed them.

A, no ka riro i a Haora te kingitanga o Iharaira, ka whawhai ia ki ona hoariri katoa i tetahi taha, i tetahi taha, ki a Moapa, ki nga tama a Amona, ki a Eroma, ki nga kingi ano o Topa, ki nga Pirihitini, a he ana ratou i a ia i nga wahi katoa i tahuri ai ia.

And he gathered an host, and smote the Amalekites, and delivered Israel out of the hands of them that spoiled them.

A i puta tona toa, a patua ana nga Amareki, a ora ake i a ia a Iharaira i te ringa o ona kaipahua.

Now the sons of Saul were Jonathan, and Ishui, and Melchi–shua: and the names of his two daughters were these; the name of the firstborn Merab, and the name of the younger Michal:

Na ko nga tama a Haora, ko Honatana, ko Ihui, ko Marikihua; a, ko nga ingoa enei o ana tamahine tokorua, ko te ingoa o te matamua ko Merapa, ko te ingoa o to muri ko Mikara.

And the name of Saul's wife was Ahinoam, the daughter of Ahimaaz: and the name of the captain of his host was Abner, the son of Ner, Saul's uncle.

A, ko te ingoa o te wahine a Haora ko Ahinoama, he tamahine na Ahimaata: ko te ingoa hoki o te rangatira o tana ope ko Apanere, tama a Nere matua keke o Haora.

And Kish was the father of Saul; and Ner the father of Abner was the son of Abiel.

Ko Kihi hoki te papa o Haora; a he tama na Apiere a Nere papa o Apanere.

And there was sore war against the Philistines all the days of Saul: and when Saul saw any strong man, or any valiant man, he took him unto him.

A he nui te whawhai ki nga Pirihitini i nga ra katoa o Haora; a ka kite a Haora i tetahi marohirohi, i tetahi maia, na ka tangohia e ia mana.
