Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Tevita ʻi hono loto, “Ko eni, ʻe ai ha ʻaho te u ʻauha ai nai ʻi he nima ʻo Saula: ʻoku ʻikai ha meʻa lelei hake kiate au, ka ko ʻeku hola ʻo hao ki he fonua ʻoe kau Filisitia; pea ʻe ʻosi ai ʻae mamahi ʻa Saula kiate au, ʻi he toe kumi kiate au ʻi he ngaahi potu fonua ʻo ʻIsileli: ko ia te u hao ai mei hono nima.”
2 Te phoeiah David te thoo tih, a taengkah hlang ya rhuk neh Gath manghai Maoch capa Akhish tea paan.
Pea naʻe tuʻu ʻa Tevita, pea hoko atu ia mo e kau tangata ʻe toko onongeau naʻe ʻiate ia kia ʻAkisi, ko e foha ʻo Maoki ko e tuʻi ʻo Kati.
3 David amah neh a hlang rhoek khaw, a hlang kah a imkhui khaw, David neh a yuu rhoi Jezreel nu Ahinoam, Karmel Nabal yuu Abigal khaw, Gath kah Akhish taengah kho a sak.
Pea naʻe nofo ʻa Tevita mo ʻAkisi ʻi Kati, ʻaia mo hono kau tangata, ʻae tangata taki taha mo hono fale, ʻa Tevita mo hono ongo uaifi ʻe toko ua, ko ʻAhinoami ko e fefine Sesilili, mo ʻApikale ko e fefine Kameli, ʻaia naʻe mali mo Napale.
4 Gath la Davida yong te Saul taenglaa puen pah ngawn dae David tlap koep ham te khoep rhoe khoep voel pawh.
Pea naʻe tala kia Saula kuo hola ʻa Tevita ki Kati: pea naʻe ʻikai te ne toe kumi ia.
5 Te vaengah David loh Akhish taengah, “Na mikhmuh ah mikdaithen ni ka dang atah, khohmuen kah khopuei pakhat ah kai he hmuen m'pae mai lamtah pahoi ka om mai eh. Ram kah khopuei khuiah na sal loh namah taengah kho a sak te ba ham lae?” a ti nah.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Tevita kia ʻAkisi, “Ko eni, kapau kuo u ʻilo ʻae ʻofa ʻi ho ʻao, tuku kenau foaki mai kiate au ha potu fonua ʻi ha kolo, pe ʻi ʻuta, koeʻuhi ke u nofo ki ai: he koeʻumaʻā ʻae nofo ʻa hoʻo tamaioʻeiki mo koe ʻi he kolo ʻae tuʻi?”
6 Tekah khohnin ah anih te Akhish loh Ziklag kho te a paek. Te dongah Ziklag he tihnin hil Judah manghai rhoek kah la om.
Pea naʻe foaki kiate ia ʻe ʻAkisi ʻa Sikilaki ʻi he ʻaho ko ia: ko ia naʻe toka ai ʻa Sikilaki ki he ngaahi tuʻi ʻo Siuta ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ni.
7 David loh Philisti khohmuen ah kho a sak tea khohnin khaw amah tarhing atah kum at neh hla li lo coeng.
Pea ko hono lahi ʻoe ʻaho naʻe nofo ai ʻa Tevita ʻi he fonua ʻoe kakai Filisitia, ko e taʻu ʻe taha mo e māhina ʻe fā.
8 Te vaengah David neh a hlang rhoek loh cet uh tih Geshuri neh Gezari tea cuuk thil uh. Tedae te khohmuen kah khosa rhoek Gezari neh Amalek rhoek tah khosuen lamloh Shur neh Egypt kho duela na paan tangtae ni.
Pea naʻe ʻalu hake ʻa Tevita mo hono kau tangata, ʻo tauʻi ʻae kakai Kesuli, mo e kakai Kesili, mo e kakai ʻAmaleki; he ko kinautolu ko e kakai ʻi muʻa ʻoe fonua ʻi hoʻo ʻalu ki Sua, ʻo ʻalu atu ki he fonua ko ʻIsipite.
9 Khohmuen te David loh a ngawn tih huta khaw tongpa khaw hing sak pawh. Tedae boiva, saelhung, laak, kalauk neh himbai te a loh tiha mael daengah Akhish tea paan.
Pea naʻe taaʻi ʻe Tevita ʻae fonua, pea naʻe ʻikai tuku ke moʻui ha tangata pe ko e fefine, pea naʻa ne fetuku ʻo ʻave ʻae fanga sipi, mo e fanga pulu, mo e fanga ʻasi, mo e fanga kāmeli, mo e ngaahi kofu, pea liu mai ʻo haʻu, pea hoko ia kia ʻAkisi.
10 Te vaengah Akhish loh, “Tihnin atah na muk mahpawt a?” a ti nah hatah David loh, “Judah tuithim neh Jerahmeli tuithim, Keni tuithim a?” a ti nah.
Pea pehē ʻe ʻAkisi, “Kuo mou tofa ʻae hala ki fē he ʻaho ni?” Pea pehē ʻe Tevita, “Ki he potu tonga ʻo Siuta, pea ki he potu tonga ʻoe kakai Selamili, pea ki he potu tonga ʻoe kakai Kena.”
11 Tedae David kah a saii neh a thui soah, “Kaimih kawng he Gath la a khuen vetih puen ve,” a ti dongah David loh huta khaw tongpa khaw hlun pawh. Tekah khosing nen ni Philisti kho kah a om tue khuiah kho a sak.
Pea naʻe ʻikai fakamoʻui ʻe Tevita ha tangata ʻe tokotaha pe ha fefine, ke ʻomi ʻae ongoongo ki Kati, ʻo ne pehē, Telia naʻa nau haʻu ʻo talaʻi ʻakimautolu, ʻo pehē, naʻe fai pehē ʻe Tevita, pea ʻe pehē pe ʻene anga, lolotonga ʻene nofo ʻi he fonua ʻoe kakai Filisitia.
12 Te vaengah Akhish loh David tea tangnah tih, “A pilnam Israel taengah a bo rhim la rhim coeng tih kamah taengah kumhal sal la om saeh,” a ti.
Pea naʻe tui ʻa ʻAkisi kia Tevita, ʻo ne pehē, “Kuo fakafehiʻa ʻaupito ʻe ia ʻa hono kakai ʻIsileli kiate ia; ko ia ʻe hoko ai ia ko ʻeku tamaioʻeiki ʻo taʻengata.”
