1 Samuel 18
Maori Bible
18 A ka mutu tana korero ki a Haora, na piri tonu te wairua o Honatana ki te wairua o Rawiri, a aroha ana a Honatana ki a ia me te mea ko tona wairua ake.
2 Na ka mau a Haora ki a ia i taua ra, kihai hoki ia i tukua kia hoki ki te whare o tona papa.
3 I whakarite kawenata ano a Honatana raua ko Rawiri; i arohaina hoki ia e ia, me te mea ko tona wairua ake.
4 I huia ano e Honatana tona koroka i runga i a ia, a hoatu ana ki a Rawiri, me ona kakahu, tae noa ki tana hoari, me tana kopere, me tona whitiki.
5 Na ka haere a Rawiri ki nga wahi katoa i tonoa ai ia e Haora, ka mahi tupato; a ka meinga ia e Haora hei rangatira mo nga tangata whawhai, a pai tonu ia ki te titiro a te iwi katoa, ki te titiro ano hoki a nga tangata a Haora.
6 Na i to ratou haerenga mai, i te hokinga mai o Rawiri i te patu i te Pirihitini, ka puta nga wahine i nga pa katoa o Iharaira, me te waiata, me te kanikani, me nga timipera, me te koa, me nga mea whakatangi, ki te whakatau i a Kingi Haora.
7 Na ka waiata whakatene nga wahine i a ratou e takaro ana, ka mea, Na Haora ana mano, na Rawiri ana tekau mano i patu.
8 Na nui rawa te riri o Haora; he mea kino hoki taua kupu ki tona whakaaro. Na ka mea ia, Tekau a ratou mano i hoatu ai ki a Rawiri, he mano kau nei a ratou i homai nei ki ahau: ko te aha ake mana ki te kahore te kingitanga?
9 Na whakatau ana te kanohi o Haora ki a Rawiri no taua ra tonu iho.
10 Na i te aonga ake ka puta kaha mai he wairua kino i te Atua ki a Haora, a ka poropiti ia i waenganui o te whare; a ka whakatangi te ringa o Rawiri i te hapa, ko tana hanga i tena ra, i tena ra: he tao ano i te ringa o Haora:
11 Ko te tino werohanga a Haora i te tao; i mea hoki ia, Me patu a Rawiri e ahau, kia titi rawa ki te pakitara. Na karohia ana e Rawiri: e rua nga mawhititanga i tona aroaro.
12 Na ka wehi a Haora i a Rawiri, no te mea i a ia a Ihowa, a kua mawehe i a Haora.
13 Koia i wehea atu ai ia e Haora i a ia, a meinga ana ia e ia ko tana rangatira mano: na ka haere atu ia, ka haere mai i te aroaro o te iwi.
14 Na tupato tonu te whakahaere a Rawiri i ona ara katoa: i a ia ano a Ihowa.
15 A, i te kitenga o Haora he tangata tupato rawa ia, ka wehi ia i a ia.
16 A i aroha a Iharaira katoa ratou ko Hura ki a Rawiri, no te mea i haere atu ia, i haere mai i to ratou aroaro.
17 Na ka mea a Haora ki a Rawiri, Nana, taku tamahine matamua, a Merapa, me hoatu e ahau hei wahine mau, otiia ko koe hei toa maku, hei whawhai i nga whawhai a Ihowa. I mea hoki a Haora, Kaua toku ringa e pa ki a ia; engari kia pa te ringa o nga Pi rihitini ki a ia.
18 Na ka mea a Rawiri ki a Haora, Ko wai ahau, he oranga aha hoki toku, he hapu aha to toku papa i roto i a Iharaira, e meinga ai ahau hei hunaonga me te kingi?
19 I te wa ia e homai ai a Merapa, te tamahine a Haora ma Rawiri, na ka hoatu ia hei wahine ma Atariere o Mehora.
20 Na i aroha a Mikara, te tamahine a Haora ki a Rawiri, a ka korerotia ki a Haora, a he mea ahuareka tena ki tona whakaaro.
21 Na ka mea a Haora, Me hoatu ia e ahau ki a ia a hei rore ia mona e pa ai te ringa o nga Pirihitini ki a ia. Koia a Haora i mea ai ki a Rawiri, Ko aianei te rua o ou meatanga hei hunaonga maku.
22 Na ka whakahau a Haora ki ana tangata, Korero puku ki a Rawiri, mea atu, Nana, e whakaahuareka ana te kingi ki a koe, e aroha ana hoki ana tangata katoa ki a koe: na reira ko koe hei hunaonga ma te kingi.
23 Na korerotia ana aua kupu e nga tangata a Haora ki nga taringa o Rawiri. A ka mea a Rawiri, He mea noa iho koia ki a koutou kia meinga ahau hei hunaonga ma te kingi, he rawakore nei hoki ahau, he ware?
24 Na ka korero nga tangata a Haora ki a ia, ka mea, ko nga kupu enei i puaki mai i a Rawiri.
25 Na ka mea a Haora, Kia penei ta koutou ki ki a Rawiri, Kahore o te kingi hiahia ki te kaipakuha; engari ki nga kiri matamata kotahi rau o nga Pirihitini: kia whai utu ai i nga hoariri o te kingi. I whakaaro hoki a Haora kia hinga a Rawiri i te r inga o nga Pirihitini.
26 A, no ka korerotia e ana tangata enei kupu ki a Rawiri, ahuareka tonu ki a Rawiri kia meinga ia hei hunaonga ma te kingi. A kahore ano nga ra kia rite.
27 Na ka whakatika a Rawiri, a haere ana ratou ko ana tangata, na patua iho e ia o nga Pirihitini e rua rau nga tangata; a kawea ana e Rawiri o ratou kiri matamata; na hoatu ana e ratou ki te kingi te mea e rite ana, kia meinga ai ia hei hunaonga m a te kingi. Na ka homai e Haora a Mikara, tana tamahine hei wahine mana.
28 A i kite a Haora, i mohio, kei a Rawiri a Ihowa; a i arohaina ia e Mikara tamahine a Haora.
29 Na ka nui rawa atu te wehi o Haora i a Rawiri; a he ito a Rawiri ki a Haora i nga ra katoa.
30 Katahi ka whakaputa nga rangatira o nga Pirihitini, a i nga wa katoa i whakaputa ai ratou, nui atu te tika o te ngarahu a Rawiri i ta nga tangata katoa a Haora; koia i tino matea nuitia ai tona ingoa.

Saul’s Growing Fear of David
18 After David had finished talking with Saul, Jonathan(A) became one in spirit with David, and he loved(B) him as himself.(C) 2 From that day Saul kept David with him and did not let him return home to his family. 3 And Jonathan made a covenant(D) with David because he loved him as himself. 4 Jonathan took off the robe(E) he was wearing and gave it to David, along with his tunic, and even his sword, his bow and his belt.(F)
5 Whatever mission Saul sent him on, David was so successful(G) that Saul gave him a high rank in the army.(H) This pleased all the troops, and Saul’s officers as well.
6 When the men were returning home after David had killed the Philistine, the women came out from all the towns of Israel to meet King Saul with singing and dancing,(I) with joyful songs and with timbrels(J) and lyres. 7 As they danced, they sang:(K)
“Saul has slain his thousands,
and David his tens(L) of thousands.”
8 Saul was very angry; this refrain displeased him greatly. “They have credited David with tens of thousands,” he thought, “but me with only thousands. What more can he get but the kingdom?(M)” 9 And from that time on Saul kept a close(N) eye on David.
10 The next day an evil[a] spirit(O) from God came forcefully on Saul. He was prophesying in his house, while David was playing the lyre,(P) as he usually(Q) did. Saul had a spear(R) in his hand 11 and he hurled it, saying to himself,(S) “I’ll pin David to the wall.” But David eluded(T) him twice.(U)
12 Saul was afraid(V) of David, because the Lord(W) was with(X) David but had departed from(Y) Saul. 13 So he sent David away from him and gave him command over a thousand men, and David led(Z) the troops in their campaigns.(AA) 14 In everything he did he had great success,(AB) because the Lord was with(AC) him. 15 When Saul saw how successful he was, he was afraid of him. 16 But all Israel and Judah loved David, because he led them in their campaigns.(AD)
17 Saul said to David, “Here is my older daughter(AE) Merab. I will give her to you in marriage;(AF) only serve me bravely and fight the battles(AG) of the Lord.” For Saul said to himself,(AH) “I will not raise a hand against him. Let the Philistines do that!”
18 But David said to Saul, “Who am I,(AI) and what is my family or my clan in Israel, that I should become the king’s son-in-law?(AJ)” 19 So[b] when the time came for Merab,(AK) Saul’s daughter, to be given to David, she was given in marriage to Adriel of Meholah.(AL)
20 Now Saul’s daughter Michal(AM) was in love with David, and when they told Saul about it, he was pleased.(AN) 21 “I will give her to him,” he thought, “so that she may be a snare(AO) to him and so that the hand of the Philistines may be against him.” So Saul said to David, “Now you have a second opportunity to become my son-in-law.”
22 Then Saul ordered his attendants: “Speak to David privately and say, ‘Look, the king likes you, and his attendants all love you; now become his son-in-law.’”
23 They repeated these words to David. But David said, “Do you think it is a small matter to become the king’s son-in-law?(AP) I’m only a poor man and little known.”
24 When Saul’s servants told him what David had said, 25 Saul replied, “Say to David, ‘The king wants no other price(AQ) for the bride than a hundred Philistine foreskins, to take revenge(AR) on his enemies.’” Saul’s plan(AS) was to have David fall by the hands of the Philistines.
26 When the attendants told David these things, he was pleased to become the king’s son-in-law. So before the allotted time elapsed, 27 David took his men with him and went out and killed two hundred Philistines and brought back their foreskins. They counted out the full number to the king so that David might become the king’s son-in-law. Then Saul gave him his daughter Michal(AT) in marriage.
28 When Saul realized that the Lord was with David and that his daughter Michal(AU) loved David, 29 Saul became still more afraid(AV) of him, and he remained his enemy the rest of his days.
30 The Philistine commanders continued to go out to battle, and as often as they did, David met with more success(AW) than the rest of Saul’s officers, and his name became well known.
