I Samuel 19

And Saul spake to Jonathan his son, and to all his servants, that they should kill David.

Na ka korero a Haora ki a Honatana, ki tana tama, ratou ko ana tangata katoa, kia whakamatea a Rawiri.

But Jonathan Saul's son delighted much in David: and Jonathan told David, saying, Saul my father seeketh to kill thee: now therefore, I pray thee, take heed to thyself until the morning, and abide in a secret place, and hide thyself:

Otiia nui atu te whakaahuareka o Honatana, tama a Haora, ki a Rawiri. Na ka korero a Honatana ki a Rawiri, ka mea, E whai ana toku papa, a Haora kia whakamatea koe: na kia tupato ki a koe i te ata, me noho ki te wahi ngaro, ka huna ai i a koe;

And I will go out and stand beside my father in the field where thou art, and I will commune with my father of thee; and what I see, that I will tell thee.

A ka puta atu ahau, ka tu ki te taha o toku papa i te mara kei reira nei koe, na ka korerotia koe e ahau ki toku papa, a ko taku e kite ai ka korerotia e ahau ki a koe.

And Jonathan spake good of David unto Saul his father, and said unto him, Let not the king sin against his servant, against David; because he hath not sinned against thee, and because his works have been to thee-ward very good:

Na ka korerotia paitia a Rawiri e Honatana ki tona papa, ki a Haora; i mea ia ki a ia, Kei hara te kingi ki tana pononga, ki a Rawiri; kahore hoki ona hara ki a koe, he nui rawa hoki te pai o ana mahi ki a koe.

For he did put his life in his hand, and slew the Philistine, and the LORD wrought a great salvation for all Israel: thou sawest it, and didst rejoice: wherefore then wilt thou sin against innocent blood, to slay David without a cause?

I whakamomori atu na hoki ia ki te mate, a patua iho te Pirihitini, na he nui te whakaoranga i whakaora ai a Ihowa i a Iharaira katoa: i kite koe, i koa hoki, a he aha ra koe ka hara ai ki nga toto harakore, ka whakamate noa iho ai i a Rawiri?

And Saul hearkened unto the voice of Jonathan: and Saul sware, As the LORD liveth, he shall not be slain.

Na ka whakarongo a Haora ki te reo o Honatana; a ka oati a Haora, E ora ana a Ihowa, e kore ia e whakamatea.

And Jonathan called David, and Jonathan shewed him all those things. And Jonathan brought David to Saul, and he was in his presence, as in times past.

Na ka karangatia a Rawiri e Honatana, a whakaaturia ana e Honatana enei mea katoa ki a ia. Na kawea ana a Rawiri e Honatana ki a Haora; a noho ana ia ki tona aroaro, pera i mua.

And there was war again: and David went out, and fought with the Philistines, and slew them with a great slaughter; and they fled from him.

Na he whawhai ano tera: a haere ana a Rawiri ki te whawhai ki nga Pirihitini, a patua iho ratou e ia, he nui te parekura, a whati ana ratou i tona aroaro.

And the evil spirit from the LORD was upon Saul, as he sat in his house with his javelin in his hand: and David played with his hand.

Na kua puta he wairua kino i a Ihowa ki a Haora, i a ia e noho ana i tona whare, me tana tao i tona ringa; a ko Rawiri i whakatangi i te hapa ki tona ringa.

And Saul sought to smite David even to the wall with the javelin; but he slipped away out of Saul's presence, and he smote the javelin into the wall: and David fled, and escaped that night.

Na ka whai a Haora kia werohia a Rawiri ki te tao, kia titi pu ki te pakitara; otiia i whakahipa ia i te aroaro o Haora, a akina kautia ana e tera te tao ki te pakitara; ko Rawiri ia i rere, i mawhiti i taua po.

Saul also sent messengers unto David's house, to watch him, and to slay him in the morning: and Michal David's wife told him, saying, If thou save not thy life to night, to morrow thou shalt be slain.

Na ka tono karere a Haora ki te whare o Rawiri, ki te whanga ki a ia, kia whakamatea ia i te ata. Na ka korerotia ki a Rawiri, ki te whanga ki a ia, kia whakamatea ia i te ata. Na ka korerotia ki a Rawiri e Mikara, e tana wahine; i mea, Ki te ka hore koe e whakaora i a koe i tenei po, apopo koe whakamatea ai.

So Michal let David down through a window: and he went, and fled, and escaped.

Heoi ka tukua iho a Rawiri e Mikara na te matapihi: a ka haere ia, ka rere, ka ora.

And Michal took an image, and laid it in the bed, and put a pillow of goats' hair for his bolster, and covered it with a cloth.

Na ka mau a Mikara ki tetahi whakapakoko, a whakatakotoria ana e ia ki te moenga, i whakatakotoria iho ano e ia tetahi urunga huruhuru koati ki to tera urunga, hipokina iho ki te kakahu.

And when Saul sent messengers to take David, she said, He is sick.

A, no te tononga a Haora i nga tangata ki te tiki i a Rawiri, ka mea tera, E mate ana ia.

And Saul sent the messengers again to see David, saying, Bring him up to me in the bed, that I may slay him.

Na ka tono ano a Haora i nga karere kia kite i a Rawiri, ka mea, Kawea mai ki ahau i runga i te moenga, kia whakamatea ia e ahau.

And when the messengers were come in, behold, there was an image in the bed, with a pillow of goats' hair for his bolster.

A, i te taenga atu o nga karere, na ko te whakapakoko i te moenga, me te urunga huruhuru koati i te wahi ki tona pane.

And Saul said unto Michal, Why hast thou deceived me so, and sent away mine enemy, that he is escaped? And Michal answered Saul, He said unto me, Let me go; why should I kill thee?

Na ka mea a Haora ki a Mikara, Na te aha koe i tinihanga nei ki ahau, i tuku nei i toku hoariri kia haere, a mawhiti atu ana ia? Ano ra ko Mikara ki a Haora, Nana ra i ki mai ki ahau, Tukua ahau kia haere; kia whakamate ahau i a koe hei aha?

So David fled, and escaped, and came to Samuel to Ramah, and told him all that Saul had done to him. And he and Samuel went and dwelt in Naioth.

Heoi ka rere a Tawiri, a mawhiti atu ana; tae tonu atu ki a Hamuera, ki Rama, a korerotia ana ki a ia nga mea katoa i mea ai a Haora ki a ia. Na ka haere raua ko Hamuera, a noho ana raua ki Naioto.

And it was told Saul, saying, Behold, David is at Naioth in Ramah.

A i korerotia te korero ki a Haora, Ko Rawiri tera kei Naiota o Rama e noho ana.

And Saul sent messengers to take David: and when they saw the company of the prophets prophesying, and Samuel standing as appointed over them, the Spirit of God was upon the messengers of Saul, and they also prophesied.

Na ka tono tangata a Haora ki te hopu i a Rawiri: na, i to ratou kitenga i te ropu poropiti e poropiti ana, me Hamuera e tu ana hei tumuaki mo ratou, ka tau iho te wairua o te Atua ki nga tangata a Haora, a poropiti ana hoki ratou.

And when it was told Saul, he sent other messengers, and they prophesied likewise. And Saul sent messengers again the third time, and they prophesied also.

A, no ka korerotia ki a Haora, ka tono ia i etahi atu tangata, a ka poropiti ano ratou. Na ko te toru o nga tononga tangata ano a Haora, a poropiti ana ano hoki ratou.

Then went he also to Ramah, and came to a great well that is in Sechu: and he asked and said, Where are Samuel and David? And one said, Behold, they be at Naioth in Ramah.

Katahi ka haere ko ia hoki ki Rama, a ka tae ki te puna nui i Heku; a ka ui ia, ka mea, Kei hea a Hamuera raua ko Rawiri? ka mea ko tetahi, Nana, kei Naioto o Rama.

And he went thither to Naioth in Ramah: and the Spirit of God was upon him also, and he went on, and prophesied, until he came to Naioth in Ramah.

Na ka haere ia ki reira, ki Naioto o Rama; a ka tau iho te wairua o te Atua ki a ia ano hoki; na ka haere ia, me te poropiti haere, a tae noa ki Naioto o Rama.

And he stripped off his clothes also, and prophesied before Samuel in like manner, and lay down naked all that day and all that night. Wherefore they say, Is Saul also among the prophets?

A i huia hoki e ia ona kakahu, a poropiti ana ano ia i te aroaro o Hamuera; a takoto tahanga ana ia i taua ra katoa, me taua po katoa. Na reira ta ratou kupu, Kei roto ano koia a Haora i nga poropiti?
