I Samuel 22

Na ka haere atu a Rawiri i reira, a rere ana ki te ana o Aturama. A ka rongo ona tuakana, me te whare katoa o tona papa, na ka haere ki reira, ki a ia.

David therefore departed thence, and escaped to the cave Adullam: and when his brethren and all his father's house heard it, they went down thither to him.

I huihui ano ki a ia nga tangata katoa e pehia ana e te aha, e te aha, me nga tangata i a ratou nei etahi taonga tarewa, me nga tangata katoa e mamae ana te ngakau: a ko ia hei rangatira mo ratou, tata tonu ki te wha rau nga tangata i piri ki a i a.

And every one that was in distress, and every one that was in debt, and every one that was discontented, gathered themselves unto him; and he became a captain over them: and there were with him about four hundred men.

Na ka haere atu a Rawiri i reira ki Mihipa o Moapa, ka mea ki te kingi Moapa, Tukua toku papa me toku whaea kia haere mai ki a koutou, kia mohio ra ano ahau ki ta te Atua e mea ai ki ahau.

And David went thence to Mizpeh of Moab: and he said unto the king of Moab, Let my father and my mother, I pray thee, come forth, and be with you, till I know what God will do for me.

Na ka kawea raua e ia ki te aroaro o te kingi o Moapa, a noho ana kaua ki a ia i nga ra katoa i noho ai a Rawiri i te pourewa

And he brought them before the king of Moab: and they dwelt with him all the while that David was in the hold.

Na ka mea a Kara poropiti ki a Rawiri, Kaua e noho ki te pourewa, whakatika, haere ki te whenua o hura. Na ka haere a Rawiri, a noho ana i te nehenehe i Harete

And the prophet Gad said unto David, Abide not in the hold; depart, and get thee into the land of Judah. Then David departed, and came into the forest of Hareth.

A, no te rongonga o Haora kua kitea a Rawiri ratou ko ona hoa, na i Kipea a Haora e noho ana, i raro i tetahi rakau, i Rama, me tana tao i tona ringa, me te tu ana tangata katoa i tona taha;

When Saul heard that David was discovered, and the men that were with him, (now Saul abode in Gibeah under a tree in Ramah, having his spear in his hand, and all his servants were standing about him;)

Ka mea a Haora ki ana tangata e tu ana i tona taha, Whakarongo mai ki ahau, e nga Pinemini; e homai ranei e te tama a Hehe he mara ki a koutou katoa, he kari waina, e meinga ranei koutou katoa e ia hei rangatira mano, hei rangatira rau;

Then Saul said unto his servants that stood about him, Hear now, ye Benjamites; will the son of Jesse give every one of you fields and vineyards, and make you all captains of thousands, and captains of hundreds;

I whakatenetene mai ai koutou ki ahau; a kahore tetahi hei whakaatu ki ahau i te whakaritenga kawenata a taku tama raua ko te tama a Hehe: kahore tetahi o koutou e pouri moku, e whaki ranei ki ahau, na taku tama i whakatutehu taku tangata ki ahau, kia whanga puku, penei me tenei inaianei?

That all of you have conspired against me, and there is none that sheweth me that my son hath made a league with the son of Jesse, and there is none of you that is sorry for me, or sheweth unto me that my son hath stirred up my servant against me, to lie in wait, as at this day?

Katahi ka oho mai ko Roeke Eromi, he kaitohutohu no nga tangata a Haora, ka mea, I kite ahau i te tama a Hehe e haere ana ki Nopo, ki a Ahimereke tama a Ahitupu.

Then answered Doeg the Edomite, which was set over the servants of Saul, and said, I saw the son of Jesse coming to Nob, to Ahimelech the son of Ahitub.

Na uia ana e tera he tikanga mana i a Ihowa; i hoatu ano e ia he o mona; ko te hoari hoki a Koriata Pirihitini i hoatu ano e ia ki a ia.

And he enquired of the LORD for him, and gave him victuals, and gave him the sword of Goliath the Philistine.

Katahi te kingi ka unga tangata atu hei karanga i te tohunga, i a Ahimereke tama a Ahitupu ratou ko te whare katoa o tona papa, i nga tohunga e noho ana i Nopo, a ka haere katoa mai ratou ki te kingi.

Then the king sent to call Ahimelech the priest, the son of Ahitub, and all his father's house, the priests that were in Nob: and they came all of them to the king.

Na ka mea a Haora, Whakarongo mai, e te tama a Ahitupu. A ka mea tera, Tenei ahau, e toku ariki.

And Saul said, Hear now, thou son of Ahitub. And he answered, Here I am, my lord.

Ano ra ko Haora ki a ia, He aha korua ko te tama a Hehe i whakatenetene mai ai ki ahau, a hoatu ana e koe he taro mana, he hoari, uia ana ano e koe he tikanga mana i te Atua, kia whakatika mai ai ia ki ahau whanga ai; koia ano tenei inaianei?

And Saul said unto him, Why have ye conspired against me, thou and the son of Jesse, in that thou hast given him bread, and a sword, and hast enquired of God for him, that he should rise against me, to lie in wait, as at this day?

Na ka utu a Ahimereke ki te kingi, ka mea, Ha, ko wai o au tangata katoa hei rite mo Rawiri te pono? ko te hunaonga hoki ia a te kingi, e haere ana i tau ngare, e whakahonoretia ana hoki i roto i tou whare?

Then Ahimelech answered the king, and said, And who is so faithful among all thy servants as David, which is the king's son in law, and goeth at thy bidding, and is honourable in thine house?

No tenei ra koia i timata ai ahau ki te ui mea mana i te Atua? kahore rapea! kaua tetahi mea e whakairia mai e te kingi ki tana pononga, ki tetahi ranei o te whare o toku papa: kahore hoki tau pononga i mohio ki tetahi aha o tenei, ahakoa iti, a hakoa rahi.

Did I then begin to enquire of God for him? be it far from me: let not the king impute any thing unto his servant, nor to all the house of my father: for thy servant knew nothing of all this, less or more.

Na ka mea te kingi, Ko te mate anake mou, e Ahimereke, mou, mo te whare katoa ano o tou papa.

And the king said, Thou shalt surely die, Ahimelech, thou, and all thy father's house.

Na ka mea te kingi ki nga kaitiaki e tu ana i tona taha, Tahuri atu, whakamatea nga tohunga a Ihowa; he mea ko o ratou ringa ano kei a Rawiri; i mohio hoki ratou e rere ana ia, a kihai i whakaatu mai ki ahau. Otiia kihai i pai nga tangata a te k ingi kia totoro atu o ratou ringa, kia rere ki runga ki nga tohunga a Ihowa.

And the king said unto the footmen that stood about him, Turn, and slay the priests of the LORD; because their hand also is with David, and because they knew when he fled, and did not shew it to me. But the servants of the king would not put forth their hand to fall upon the priests of the LORD.

Na ka mea te kingi ki a Roeke, Tahuri atu, e rere ki runga ki nga tohunga. Na tahuri ana a Roeke, Eromi, a rere ana ki runga ki nga tohunga, a e waru tekau ma rima nga tangata i patua e ia i taua ra, he hunga kakahu i te epora rinena.

And the king said to Doeg, Turn thou, and fall upon the priests. And Doeg the Edomite turned, and he fell upon the priests, and slew on that day fourscore and five persons that did wear a linen ephod.

I patua ano hoki e ia a Nopo, te pa o nga tohunga, ki te mata o te hoari, te tane, te wahine, nga tamariki, nga mea ngote u, nga kau, nga kaihe, nga hipi, ki te mata o te hoari.

And Nob, the city of the priests, smote he with the edge of the sword, both men and women, children and sucklings, and oxen, and asses, and sheep, with the edge of the sword.

Na i mawhiti tetahi o nga tama a Ahimereke tama a Ahitupu, tona ingoa ko Apiatara; a rere ana ki te whai i a Rawiri.

And one of the sons of Ahimelech the son of Ahitub, named Abiathar, escaped, and fled after David.

A na Apiatara i korero ki a Rawiri ta Haora patunga i nga tohunga a Ihowa.

And Abiathar shewed David that Saul had slain the LORD'S priests.

Na ka mea a Rawiri ki a Apiatara, I mohio ano ahau i taua ra i a Roeke Eromi i kona, ka whakaaturia e ia ki a Haora. Naku i mate ai nga tangata katoa o te whare o tou papa.

And David said unto Abiathar, I knew it that day, when Doeg the Edomite was there, that he would surely tell Saul: I have occasioned the death of all the persons of thy father's house.

E noho koe ki ahau, kaua e wehi; ko te tangata hoki e whai ana i te mate moku, e whai ana i te mate mou: na kei ahau nei koe, ka tiakina koe.

Abide thou with me, fear not: for he that seeketh my life seeketh thy life: but with me thou shalt be in safeguard.
