I Samuel 13

E toru tekau nga tau o Haora ka kingi ia; a e rua ona tau e kingi ana mo Iharaira.

Saul reigned one year; and when he had reigned two years over Israel,

Na ka whiriwhiria e Haora etahi tangata o Iharaira mana, e toru mano. A o aua mano, e rua i a Haora i Mikimaha, i Maunga Peteere, kotahi mano i a Honatana i Kipea o Pineamine; ko te nuinga ia o te iwi i tonoa atu e ia ki tona teneti, ki tona tene ti.

Saul chose him three thousand men of Israel; whereof two thousand were with Saul in Michmash and in mount Beth–el, and a thousand were with Jonathan in Gibeah of Benjamin: and the rest of the people he sent every man to his tent.

Na ka patua e Honatana nga hoia pupuri a nga Pirihitini i Kepa, a rongo ana nga Pirihitini. Na ka whakatangihia te tetere e Haora puta noa i te whenua katoa, a ka mea, Kia rongo nga Hiperu.

And Jonathan smote the garrison of the Philistines that was in Geba, and the Philistines heard of it. And Saul blew the trumpet throughout all the land, saying, Let the Hebrews hear.

A ka rongo a Iharaira katoa i te korero kua patua e Haora nga hoia pupuri a nga Pirihitini, a kua whakahouhou hoki a Iharaira ki nga Pirihitini, na ka huihui te iwi ki te whai i a Haora ki Kirikara.

And all Israel heard say that Saul had smitten a garrison of the Philistines, and that Israel also was had in abomination with the Philistines. And the people were called together after Saul to Gilgal.

Me nga Pirihitini hoki, i huihui ki te whawhai ki a Iharaira, e toru tekau mano nga hariata, e ono mano nga hoia eke hoiho, me nga tangata e rite ana ki te onepu i te taha o te moana te tini. Na ka haere ratou, ka noho ki Mikimaha, whaka te rawhi ti o Peteawene.

And the Philistines gathered themselves together to fight with Israel, thirty thousand chariots, and six thousand horsemen, and people as the sand which is on the sea shore in multitude: and they came up, and pitched in Michmash, eastward from Beth–aven.

I te kitenga o nga tangata o Iharaira kei roto ratou i te raru, kua pawera hoki te iwi, na piri ana te iwi i roto i nga ana, i nga wahi ururua, i runga i nga kamaka, i nga taumaihi, i roto i nga rua.

When the men of Israel saw that they were in a strait, (for the people were distressed,) then the people did hide themselves in caves, and in thickets, and in rocks, and in high places, and in pits.

Na tera etahi o nga Hiperu i whiti atu i Horano ki te whenua o Kara, o Kireara, Ko Haora ia, i Kirikara ano ia; a aru wehi ana te iwi katoa i a ia.

And some of the Hebrews went over Jordan to the land of Gad and Gilead. As for Saul, he was yet in Gilgal, and all the people followed him trembling.

A e whitu nga ra i tatari ai ia; ko te wa hoki ia i whakaritea e Hamuera; kahore ia a Hamuera i tae ki Kirikara; a marara noa atu tona nuinga.

And he tarried seven days, according to the set time that Samuel had appointed: but Samuel came not to Gilgal; and the people were scattered from him.

Na ka mea a Haora, Kawea mai te tahunga tinana ki ahau, me nga whakahere mo te pai. Na whakaekea ana e ia te tahunga tinana.

And Saul said, Bring hither a burnt offering to me, and peace offerings. And he offered the burnt offering.

A ka oti tana tahunga tinana te whakaeke, na kua puta a Hamuera; a haere ana a Haora ki te whakatau i a ia, ki te oha ki a ia.

And it came to pass, that as soon as he had made an end of offering the burnt offering, behold, Samuel came; and Saul went out to meet him, that he might salute him.

Na ka mea a Hamuera, He mahi aha tau? Ano ra ko Haora, I kite hoki ahau kua marara noa atu toku nuinga, a kahore koe i tae mai i nga ra i whakaritea, heoi e huihui ana nga Pirihitini ki Mikimaha:

And Samuel said, What hast thou done? And Saul said, Because I saw that the people were scattered from me, and that thou camest not within the days appointed, and that the Philistines gathered themselves together at Michmash;

Koia ka mea ahau, Akuanei nga Pirihitini haere mai ai ki ahau ki Kirikara, a kahore ano ahau kia inoi ki a Ihowa. Na pehia ana e ahau toku ngakau, a whakaekea ana te tahunga tinana.

Therefore said I, The Philistines will come down now upon me to Gilgal, and I have not made supplication unto the LORD: I forced myself therefore, and offered a burnt offering.

Na ko te kianga a Hamuera ki a Haora, He mahi kuware tau; kihai nei i pupuri i te whakahau a Ihowa, a tou Atua i whakahau ai ia ki a koe: penei kua whakapumautia e Ihowa aianei tou kingitanga ki a Iharaira a ake ake.

And Samuel said to Saul, Thou hast done foolishly: thou hast not kept the commandment of the LORD thy God, which he commanded thee: for now would the LORD have established thy kingdom upon Israel for ever.

Ko tenei, e kore e tu tou kingitanga: kua rapua e Ihowa tetahi tangata mana, ko ta tona ngakau i pai ai, kua oti ano ia te whakahau e Ihowa hei rangatira mo tana iwi; mou kihai i pupuri i ta Ihowa i whakahau ai ki a koe.

But now thy kingdom shall not continue: the LORD hath sought him a man after his own heart, and the LORD hath commanded him to be captain over his people, because thou hast not kept that which the LORD commanded thee.

Na whakatika ana a Hamuera, a haere atu ana i Kirikara ki Kipea o Pineamine. A taua ana e Haora nga tangata i piri ki a ia; tata tonu aua tangata ki te ono rau.

And Samuel arose, and gat him up from Gilgal unto Gibeah of Benjamin. And Saul numbered the people that were present with him, about six hundred men.

Na i Kepa o Pineamine a Haora raua ko tana tama, ko Honatana, me te hunga hoki i piri ki a raua: i Mikimaha ano nga Pirihitini e noho ana.

And Saul, and Jonathan his son, and the people that were present with them, abode in Gibeah of Benjamin: but the Philistines encamped in Michmash.

Na ka puta nga kaipahua i te puni o nga Pirihitini, e toru nga ngohi: kotahi te ngohi i anga na te ara ki Opora, ki te whenua o Huara:

And the spoilers came out of the camp of the Philistines in three companies: one company turned unto the way that leadeth to Ophrah, unto the land of Shual:

Kotahi te ngohi i anga na te huarahi ki Petehorono: kotahi te ngohi i anga na te ara ki te rohe e aro nui ana ki te raorao o Tepoimi whaka te koraha.

And another company turned the way to Beth–horon: and another company turned to the way of the border that looketh to the valley of Zeboim toward the wilderness.

Na kahore he parakimete i kitea puta noa i te whenua katoa o Iharaira: i mea hoki nga Pirihitini, Kei hanga he hoari, he tao ranei, e nga Hiperu.

Now there was no smith found throughout all the land of Israel: for the Philistines said, Lest the Hebrews make them swords or spears:

Haere ai a Iharaira katoa ki raro, ki nga Pirihitini ki te whakakoi i te hea, i te maripi o tana parau, i tana toki, i tana ko.

But all the Israelites went down to the Philistines, to sharpen every man his share, and his coulter, and his axe, and his mattock.

Otiia he whaiuru ano ta ratou mo nga hea, mo nga maripi o nga parau, mo nga marau, mo nga toki, hei oro ano hoki mo nga wero kau.

Yet they had a file for the mattocks, and for the coulters, and for the forks, and for the axes, and to sharpen the goads.

Heoi i te ra o te pakanga kahore i kitea he hoari, he tao i roto i te ringa o tetahi o nga tangata a Haora raua ko Honatana: otiia i kitea ano ki a Haora raua ko tana tama, ko Honatana.

So it came to pass in the day of battle, that there was neither sword nor spear found in the hand of any of the people that were with Saul and Jonathan: but with Saul and with Jonathan his son was there found.

Na ka haere nga hoia pupuri a nga Pirihitini ki te whakawhitinga atu o Mikimaha.

And the garrison of the Philistines went out to the passage of Michmash.
