I Samuel 15

Samuel also said unto Saul, The LORD sent me to anoint thee to be king over his people, over Israel: now therefore hearken thou unto the voice of the words of the LORD.
Na ka mea a Hamuera ki a Haora, I tonoa mai ahau e Ihowa ki te whakawahi i a koe hei kingi mo tana iwi, mo Iharaira: na whakarongo mai ki te reo o nga kupu a Ihowa.
Thus saith the LORD of hosts, I remember that which Amalek did to Israel, how he laid wait for him in the way, when he came up from Egypt.
Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa o nga mano, E whakaaro ana ahau ki ta Amareke i mea ai ki a Iharaira, ki tana whanganga i a ia i te ara i tona haerenga mai i Ihipa.
Now go and smite Amalek, and utterly destroy all that they have, and spare them not; but slay both man and woman, infant and suckling, ox and sheep, camel and ass.
Na tikina, patua a Amareke, whakangaromia rawatia a ratou mea katoa, kaua hoki ratou e tohungia; engari whakamatea ngatahitia te tane me te wahine, te potiki me te mea ngote u, te kau me te hipi, te kamera me te kaihe.
And Saul gathered the people together, and numbered them in Telaim, two hundred thousand footmen, and ten thousand men of Judah.
Na ka huihuia te iwi e Haora, a taua ana e ia ki Teraimi, e rua rau mano, he hunga haere i raro, me nga tangata hoki o Hura, kotahi tekau mano.
And Saul came to a city of Amalek, and laid wait in the valley.
Na ko te haerenga atu o Haora ki te pa o Amareke, a whakatakoto pehipehi ana i roto i te awaawa.
And Saul said unto the Kenites, Go, depart, get you down from among the Amalekites, lest I destroy you with them: for ye shewed kindness to all the children of Israel, when they came up out of Egypt. So the Kenites departed from among the Amalekites.
I mea hoki a Haora ki nga Keni, Whakatika, mawehe atu, haere ki raro i roto i nga Amareki, kei huna tahitia koe e ahau me ratou; i puta hoki ta koutou atawhai ki nga tamariki katoa a Iharaira i to ratou haerenga mai i Ihipa. Heoi ka mawehe nga Ke ni i roto i a Amareki.
And Saul smote the Amalekites from Havilah until thou comest to Shur, that is over against Egypt.
Na tukitukia ana e Haora nga Amareki i Hawira atu a tae noa koe ki Huru, ki te ritenga atu o Ihipa.
And he took Agag the king of the Amalekites alive, and utterly destroyed all the people with the edge of the sword.
Hopukia oratia ana hoki e ia a Akaka kingi o Amareke, ko te iwi katoa hoki i whakangaromia rawatia e ia ki te mata o te hoari.
But Saul and the people spared Agag, and the best of the sheep, and of the oxen, and of the fatlings, and the lambs, and all that was good, and would not utterly destroy them: but every thing that was vile and refuse, that they destroyed utterly.
Otiia i tohungia e Haora ratou ko te iwi a Akaka, me nga mea papai o nga hipi, o nga kau, o nga mea momona hoki, me nga reme, me nga mea pai katoa, kihai hoki i aro ki te whakangaro i a ratou: engari nga mea e whakaparahakotia ana, e rukea ana, k o ena a ratou i whakangaro ai.
Then came the word of the LORD unto Samuel, saying,
Katahi ka puta te kupu a Ihowa ki a Hamuera, ka mea,
It repenteth me that I have set up Saul to be king: for he is turned back from following me, and hath not performed my commandments. And it grieved Samuel; and he cried unto the LORD all night.
Kua puta ke oku whakaaro i meinga ai e ahau a Haora hei kingi; kua hoki atu hoki ia i te whai i ahau, a kihai hoki i whakamana i aku kupu. Na ka oho te riri a Hamuera; a pau katoa taua po i a ia e tangi ana ki a Ihowa.
And when Samuel rose early to meet Saul in the morning, it was told Samuel, saying, Saul came to Carmel, and, behold, he set him up a place, and is gone about, and passed on, and gone down to Gilgal.
Na ka maranga wawe a Hamuera i te ata ki te whakatau i a Haora; a ka korerotia ki a Hamuera, ka meatia, I te mai a Haora ki Karamere, na whakaturia ana e ia he tohu mana, a haere awhio atu ana, kua pahemo atu, kua riro ki raro, ki Kirikara.
And Samuel came to Saul: and Saul said unto him, Blessed be thou of the LORD: I have performed the commandment of the LORD.
Na ka tae atu a Hamuera ki a Haora, a ka mea a Haora ki a ia, Kia manaakitia koe e Ihowa, kua whakamana e ahau te kupu a Ihowa.
And Samuel said, What meaneth then this bleating of the sheep in mine ears, and the lowing of the oxen which I hear?
Na ka mea a Hamuera, He aha koia tenei tangi o nga hipi i roto nei i oku taringa, me te tangi o nga kau e rongo nei ahau?
And Saul said, They have brought them from the Amalekites: for the people spared the best of the sheep and of the oxen, to sacrifice unto the LORD thy God; and the rest we have utterly destroyed.
Ano ra ko Haora, He mea mau mai e ratou i nga Amareki: i tohungia hoki e te iwi nga mea papai o nga hipi, o nga kau, hei mea patunga tapu ki a Ihowa, ki tou Atua; a ko te toenga, whakangaromia iho e matou.
Then Samuel said unto Saul, Stay, and I will tell thee what the LORD hath said to me this night. And he said unto him, Say on.
Katahi ka mea a Hamuera ki a Haora, Kati, kia korerotia e ahau ki a koe ta Ihowa i mea ai ki ahau i tenei po. Ano ra ko tera, Korero.
And Samuel said, When thou wast little in thine own sight, wast thou not made the head of the tribes of Israel, and the LORD anointed thee king over Israel?
A ka mea a Hamuera, I a koe e iti ana ki tou whakaaro, kihai ianei koe i meinga hei upoko mo nga iwi o Iharaira, i whakawahia e Ihowa hei kingi mo Iharaira?
And the LORD sent thee on a journey, and said, Go and utterly destroy the sinners the Amalekites, and fight against them until they be consumed.
Na ka tono a Ihowa i a koe kia haere, ka mea, Tikina, whakangaromia te hunga hara, nga Amareki, whawhai hoki ki a ratou a poto noa ratou.
Wherefore then didst thou not obey the voice of the LORD, but didst fly upon the spoil, and didst evil in the sight of the LORD?
He aha koe te whakarongo ai ki te reo o Ihowa, i aurara atu ai ki nga taonga parakete, i mahi ai i te kino i te tirohanga a Ihowa?
And Saul said unto Samuel, Yea, I have obeyed the voice of the LORD, and have gone the way which the LORD sent me, and have brought Agag the king of Amalek, and have utterly destroyed the Amalekites.
Na ka mea a Haora ki a Hamuera, Ina, i whakarongo ano ahau ki te reo o Ihowa, i haere i te ara i tonoa ai ahau e Ihowa, kua kawea mai ano hoki e ahau a Akaka kingi o Amareke; ko nga Amareki ano hoki, whakangaromia iho e ahau.
But the people took of the spoil, sheep and oxen, the chief of the things which should have been utterly destroyed, to sacrifice unto the LORD thy God in Gilgal.
Na te iwi hoki i tango etahi o nga taonga, o nga hipi, o nga kau, nga mea tino papai o nga mea e whakangaromia ana hei mea patunga tapu ki a Ihowa, ki tou Atua, ki Kirikara.
And Samuel said, Hath the LORD as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of the LORD? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to hearken than the fat of rams.
Ano ra ko Hamuera, Ki ta Ihowa, he pera ranei te ahuareka o nga tahunga tinana, o nga patunga tapu, me te whakarongo ki te reo o Ihowa? Nana, pai atu te whakarongo i te patunga tapu, te ngakau mahara i te ngako o nga hipi toa.
For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry. Because thou hast rejected the word of the LORD, he hath also rejected thee from being king.
Rite tonu hoki te tutu ki te hara makutu; te whakatuturi ki te kino, ki te karakia whakapakoko. He whakaparahako nau ki te kupu a Ihowa, ka whakaparahako hoki ia ki a koe hei kingi.
And Saul said unto Samuel, I have sinned: for I have transgressed the commandment of the LORD, and thy words: because I feared the people, and obeyed their voice.
Na ka ki a Haora ki a Hamuera, Kua hara ahau, i ahau i takahi nei i te kupu a Ihowa, i au kupu ano hoki: i wehi hoki ahau i te iwi, i whakarongo ki to ratou reo.
Now therefore, I pray thee, pardon my sin, and turn again with me, that I may worship the LORD.
Tena ra, whakarerea noatia iho toku hara, kia hoki atu taua, kia koropiko ai ahau ki a Ihowa.
And Samuel said unto Saul, I will not return with thee: for thou hast rejected the word of the LORD, and the LORD hath rejected thee from being king over Israel.
Ano ra ko Hamuera ki a Haora, E kore ahau e hoki tahi taua; he mea hoki kua whakaparahako koe ki te kupu a Ihowa, a kua whakaparahako a Ihowa ki a koe hei kingi mo Iharaira.
And as Samuel turned about to go away, he laid hold upon the skirt of his mantle, and it rent.
A, i te tahuritanga o Hamuera ki te haere, ka mau tera ki te pito o tona kakahu, a kua pakaru.
And Samuel said unto him, The LORD hath rent the kingdom of Israel from thee this day, and hath given it to a neighbour of thine, that is better than thou.
Na ka mea a Hamuera ki a ia, Kua haea mai e Ihowa inaianei tou kingitanga i roto i a Iharaira, kua hoatu ki tou hoa e pai atu ana i a koe.
And also the Strength of Israel will not lie nor repent: for he is not a man, that he should repent.
E kore ano hoki te Kaha o Iharaira e teka; e kore ano hoki e puta ke ona whakaaro; no te mea ehara ia i te tangata e puta ke ai ona whakaaro.
Then he said, I have sinned: yet honour me now, I pray thee, before the elders of my people, and before Israel, and turn again with me, that I may worship the LORD thy God.
Ano ra ko tera, Kua hara ahau: otiia whakahonoretia ahau aianei i te aroaro o nga kaumatua o toku iwi, i te aroaro o Iharaira, kia hoki tahi taua, kia koropiko ai ahau ki a Ihowa, ki tou Atua.
So Samuel turned again after Saul; and Saul worshipped the LORD.
Heoi hoki ana a Hamuera i muri i a Haora, a karakia ana a Haora ki a Ihowa.
Then said Samuel, Bring ye hither to me Agag the king of the Amalekites. And Agag came unto him delicately. And Agag said, Surely the bitterness of death is past.
Katahi a Hamuera ka mea, Kawea mai ki ahau a Akaka kingi o Amareke. Na ka ata hikoi a Akaka ki a ia. A ka mea a Akaka, He pono kua pahemo ke te ngau kino a te mate.
And Samuel said, As thy sword hath made women childless, so shall thy mother be childless among women. And Samuel hewed Agag in pieces before the LORD in Gilgal.
Ano ra ko Hamuera, Na tau hoari i kore ai nga uri o nga wahine, ka pena ano tou whaea te urikore i roto i nga wahine. Na haua iho a Akaka e Hamuera i te aroaro o Ihowa i Kirikara.
Then Samuel went to Ramah; and Saul went up to his house to Gibeah of Saul.
Katahi ka haere a Hamuera ki Rama; ko Haora ia i haere ki runga ki tona whare, ki Kipea o Haora.
And Samuel came no more to see Saul until the day of his death: nevertheless Samuel mourned for Saul: and the LORD repented that he had made Saul king over Israel.
Kihai hoki a Haora i tirotirohia e Hamuera i muri iho a taea noatia te ra i mate ai ia: heoi tangihia ana a Haora e Hamuera: i puta ke ano hoki nga whakaaro o Ihowa i meinga ai e ia a Haora hei kingi mo Iharaira.
