I Samuel 28

Na i aua ra kua huihuia e nga Pirihitini a ratou taua mo te pakanga, hei whawhai ki a Iharaira. Na ka mea a Akihi ki a Rawiri, Kia tino mohio koe me haere tahi taua ki te whawhai, koutou ko au tangata.

And it came to pass in those days, that the Philistines gathered their armies together for warfare, to fight with Israel. And Achish said unto David, Know thou assuredly, that thou shalt go out with me to battle, thou and thy men.

Ano ra ko Rawiri ki a Akihi, Ma reira koe ka mohio ai ki nga mahi a tau pononga. A ka mea a Akihi ki a Rawiri, Koia ahau ka mea nei i a koe hei tiaki mo toku upoko i nga ra katoa.

And David said to Achish, Surely thou shalt know what thy servant can do. And Achish said to David, Therefore will I make thee keeper of mine head for ever.

Na, kua mate a Hamuera, kua uhungatia hoki e Iharaira katoa, kua tanumia ki Rama, ki tona pa ake. Kua whakakorea atu hoki e Haora i te whenua te hunga i nga waka atua, i nga rapa maori hoki.

Now Samuel was dead, and all Israel had lamented him, and buried him in Ramah, even in his own city. And Saul had put away those that had familiar spirits, and the wizards, out of the land.

Na ka huihui nga Pirihitini, a haere mai ana, puni ana ki Huneme; i huihuia ano e Haora a Iharaira katoa, a puni ana ki Kiripoa.

And the Philistines gathered themselves together, and came and pitched in Shunem: and Saul gathered all Israel together, and they pitched in Gilboa.

A, no te kitenga o Haora i te taua a nga Pirihitini, ka wehi, tuiri rawa tona ngakau.

And when Saul saw the host of the Philistines, he was afraid, and his heart greatly trembled.

Na, i te uinga a Haora ki a Ihowa, hore rawa he kupu a Ihowa i whakahokia mai ki a ia, e nga moe, e nga Urimi, e nga poropiti ranei.

And when Saul enquired of the LORD, the LORD answered him not, neither by dreams, nor by Urim, nor by prophets.

Katahi a Haora ka mea ki ana tangata, Rapua maku tetahi wahine he atua maori tona kia haere ahau ki a ia ki te rapu tikanga i a ia. Ano ra ko ana tangata ki a ia, Tera tetahi wahine he atua maori tona, kei Eneroro.

Then said Saul unto his servants, Seek me a woman that hath a familiar spirit, that I may go to her, and enquire of her. And his servants said to him, Behold, there is a woman that hath a familiar spirit at Endor.

Na ka whakaahua ke a Haora i a ia, a kakahu ana i etahi kakahu ke, haere ana ia me ana tangata tokorua; ka tae ki taua wahine i te po, ka mea atu ia, Tena koa, hirihiria te atua maori, a whakaputaina ake ki ahau taku e ki atu ai.

And Saul disguised himself, and put on other raiment, and he went, and two men with him, and they came to the woman by night: and he said, I pray thee, divine unto me by the familiar spirit, and bring me him up, whom I shall name unto thee.

Na ka mea taua wahine ki a ia, Ha, kua mohio ano koe ki ta Haora i mea ai, ki tana hautopenga atu i te hunga atua maori, i nga rapa maori, o te whenua nei; he aha ra koe i mea mahanga mai ai mo toku wairua, kia mate ai ahau?

And the woman said unto him, Behold, thou knowest what Saul hath done, how he hath cut off those that have familiar spirits, and the wizards, out of the land: wherefore then layest thou a snare for my life, to cause me to die?

Na ka oatitia a Ihowa e Haora ki a ia, i mea ia, E ora ana a Ihowa, e kore tetahi he e pa ki a koe mo tenei mea.

And Saul sware to her by the LORD, saying, As the LORD liveth, there shall no punishment happen to thee for this thing.

Katahi te wahine ka mea, Ko wai kia whakaputaina ake e ahau ki a koe? Ano ra ko ia, Ko Hamuera tau e whakaputa ake ai ki ahau.

Then said the woman, Whom shall I bring up unto thee? And he said, Bring me up Samuel.

A, no te kitenga o te wahine i a Hamuera, nui atu tona reo ki te hamama; a ka korero te wahine ki a Haora, ka mea, He aha koe i tinihanga ai ki ahau? ko Haora hoki koe.

And when the woman saw Samuel, she cried with a loud voice: and the woman spake to Saul, saying, Why hast thou deceived me? for thou art Saul.

Na ka mea te kingi ki a ia, Kaua e wehi: i kite hoki koe i te aha? Na ka mea te wahine ki a Haora, Kei te kite ahau i tetahi atua e haere ake ana i te whenua.

And the king said unto her, Be not afraid: for what sawest thou? And the woman said unto Saul, I saw gods ascending out of the earth.

Ano ra ko tera ki a ia, He ahua aha tona? Ka mea ia, He koroheke te haere ake nei; he koroka hoki te kakahu. Na ka mohio a Haora ko Hamuera. Tuohu ana tona mata ki te whenua, piko ana ia.

And he said unto her, What form is he of? And she said, An old man cometh up; and he is covered with a mantle. And Saul perceived that it was Samuel, and he stooped with his face to the ground, and bowed himself.

Na ka mea a Hamuera ki a Haora, He aha koe i whakaohooho ai i ahau, i mea ai kia haere ake ahau? Ano ra ko Haora, Nui atu toku mate; e whawhai ana hoki nga Pirihitini ki ahau, a kua mahue ahau i te Atua, kahore ake hoki he kupu ana e whakahokia mai ki ahau e nga poropiti, e nga moe ranei; koia ahau i karanga ai ki a koe, hei ako i ahau ki taku e mea ai.

And Samuel said to Saul, Why hast thou disquieted me, to bring me up? And Saul answered, I am sore distressed; for the Philistines make war against me, and God is departed from me, and answereth me no more, neither by prophets, nor by dreams: therefore I have called thee, that thou mayest make known unto me what I shall do.

Katahi a Hamuera ka mea, He aha ra koe i u ai ki ahau, kua mahue nei hoki koe i a Ihowa, hei hoariri ano ia ki a koe?

Then said Samuel, Wherefore then dost thou ask of me, seeing the LORD is departed from thee, and is become thine enemy?

Na kua meatia e Ihowa mona ake tana i whakapuakina e ahau: kua haea atu hoki te kingitanga i tou ringa, kua hoatu ki tou hoa, ara ki a Rawiri.

And the LORD hath done to him, as he spake by me: for the LORD hath rent the kingdom out of thine hand, and given it to thy neighbour, even to David:

Mou kihai i rongo ki te reo o Ihowa, kihai i whakaputa i tona riri aritarita ki a Amareke; na reira a Ihowa i mea ai i tenei mea ki a koe i tenei ra.

Because thou obeyedst not the voice of the LORD, nor executedst his fierce wrath upon Amalek, therefore hath the LORD done this thing unto thee this day.

Ko tenei, ka hoatu ano a Iharaira e Ihowa me koe hoki ki te ringa o nga Pirihitini, a apopo koutou ko au tama tae ake ai ki ahau: a ka hoatu e Ihowa te taua a Iharaira ki te ringa o nga Pirihitini.

Moreover the LORD will also deliver Israel with thee into the hand of the Philistines: and to morrow shalt thou and thy sons be with me: the LORD also shall deliver the host of Israel into the hand of the Philistines.

Katahi ka hinga tonu iho a Haora, tona roa katoa ki te whenua, nui rawa hoki tona wehi mo nga kupu a Hamuera: kahore ano he kaha i roto i a ia; kihai hoki ia i kai taro noa pau noa taua ra, pau noa taua po.

Then Saul fell straightway all along on the earth, and was sore afraid, because of the words of Samuel: and there was no strength in him; for he had eaten no bread all the day, nor all the night.

Na ka haere taua wahine ki a Haora; a ka kite e pororaru rawa ana ona whakaaro, ka mea ki a ia, Nana, kua whakarongo nei tau pononga ki tou reo, a whakamomori ana ahau ki te mate, whakarongo ana ahau ki au kupu i korerotia e koe ki ahau.

And the woman came unto Saul, and saw that he was sore troubled, and said unto him, Behold, thine handmaid hath obeyed thy voice, and I have put my life in my hand, and have hearkened unto thy words which thou spakest unto me.

Na, tena, whakarongo mai hoki aianei ki te reo o tau pononga, Kia whakatakotoria e ahau tetahi wahi taro ki tou aroaro; me kai ano koe, kia whai kaha ai koe ina haere i tou huarahi.

Now therefore, I pray thee, hearken thou also unto the voice of thine handmaid, and let me set a morsel of bread before thee; and eat, that thou mayest have strength, when thou goest on thy way.

Otiia i whakakahore ia, i mea, E kore ahau e kai. Heoi tohea ana ia e ana tangata ratou ko te wahine; na ka rongo ia ki to ratou reo, a whakatika ake ana i te whenua, noho ana ki runga ki te moenga.

But he refused, and said, I will not eat. But his servants, together with the woman, compelled him; and he hearkened unto their voice. So he arose from the earth, and sat upon the bed.

Na he kuao kau ta taua wahine i te whare, he mea whangai; na hohoro tonu tana patu, tikina ana e ia he paraoa, pokepokea ana, tunua iho e ia etahi keke rewenakore;

And the woman had a fat calf in the house; and she hasted, and killed it, and took flour, and kneaded it, and did bake unleavened bread thereof:

Kawea mai ana e ia ki te aroaro o Haora, ki te aroaro ano o ana tangata. Na kai ana ratou, a whakatika ana, haere atu ana i taua po.

And she brought it before Saul, and before his servants; and they did eat. Then they rose up, and went away that night.
