1 Chronicles 16

1 So they brought in the Arke of God, and set it in the middes of the Tabernacle that Dauid had pitched for it, and they offred burnt offrings and peace offrings before God.

Ko ia naʻa nau ʻomi ʻae puha ʻoe fuakava ʻae ʻOtua, mo tuku ia ʻi he loto fale fehikitaki ʻaia naʻe fokotuʻu ki ai ʻe Tevita: pea naʻa nau ʻatu ʻae ngaahi feilaulau tutu, mo e ngaahi feilaulau fakamelino ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ʻOtua.

2 And when Dauid had made an ende of offering the burnt offering and the peace offerings, hee blessed the people in the Name of the Lord.

Pea ʻi heʻene fakaʻosi ʻe Tevita ʻae ʻatu ʻae ngaahi feilaulau tutu, mo e ngaahi feilaulau fakamelino, naʻa ne tāpuaki ʻae kakai ʻi he huafa ʻo Sihova.

3 And he dealt to euery one of Israel both man and woman, to euery one a cake of breade, and a piece of flesh, and a bottel of wine.

Pea naʻa ne tufaki ki he kakai taki taha kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli, ki he tangata mo e fefine fakatouʻosi, ke taki taha haʻane foʻi mā, mo e konga kanomate lahi, mo e ipu uaine ʻe taha.

4 And he appointed certaine of the Leuites to minister before the Arke of the Lord, and to rehearse and to thanke and prayse the Lord God of Israel:

Pea naʻa ne fakanofo ʻae niʻihi ʻi he kau Livai ke tauhi ʻi he ʻao ʻoe puha ʻoe fuakava ʻa Sihova, pea ke fai ʻae tohi fakamanatu, pea ke fai ʻae fakafetaʻi mo e fakamālō kia Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli:

5 Asaph the chiefe, and next to him Zechariah, Ieiel, and Shemiramoth, and Iehiel, and Mattithiah, and Eliab, and Benaiah, and Obed Edom, euen Ieiel with instruments, violes and harpes, and Asaph to make a sound with cymbales,

Ko honau ʻeiki ʻa ʻAsafi, pea hoko mo ia ʻa Sakalia, mo Sieli, mo Similamoti, mo Sehieli, mo Matitia, mo ʻIliapi, mo Penaia, mo ʻOpeti-ʻItomi: pea naʻe ʻia Sieli ʻae ngaahi ūtete mo e ngaahi haʻape; ka naʻe ʻia ʻAsafi ʻae fakaongo ʻaki ʻae ngaahi meʻa pakihi;

6 And Benaiah and Iahaziel Priestes, with trumpets continually before the Arke of the couenant of God.

Pea naʻe ʻia Penaia foki mo Seesieli ko e ongo taulaʻeiki ʻae ngaahi meʻalea maʻuaipē ʻi he ʻao ʻoe puha ʻoe fuakava ʻae ʻOtua.

7 Then at that time Dauid did appoint at the beginning to giue thankes to the Lord by the hand of Asaph and his brethren.

Pea ʻi he ʻaho ko ia naʻe fuofua ʻatu ʻe Tevita ʻae fakafetaʻi kia Sihova ʻi he nima ʻo ʻAsafi pea mo hono kāinga.

8 Praise the Lord and call vpon his Name: declare his workes among the people.

Mou fakafetaʻi kia Sihova, ui ki hono huafa, fakaongoongo ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe kakai ʻa ʻene ngaahi ngāue.

9 Sing vnto him, sing praise vnto him, and talke of all his wonderfull workes.

Mou hiva kiate ia, hiva ʻaki ʻae ngaahi saame kiate ia, mou fetalanoaʻaki ʻa ʻene ngaahi ngāue fakaofo.

10 Reioyce in his holy Name: let the hearts of them that seeke the Lord reioyce.

Mou vikiviki ʻi hono huafa māʻoniʻoni: tuku ke fiefia ʻae loto ʻokinautolu, ʻoku kumi kia Sihova.

11 Seeke the Lord and his strength: seeke his face continually.

Mou kumi kia Sihova pea mo ʻene mālohi, mou kumi maʻuaipē ki hono fofonga.

12 Remember his marueilous workes that he hath done, his wonders, and the iudgements of his mouth,

Manatu ki heʻene ngaahi ngāue fakamanavahē ʻaia kuo ne fai, ʻa ʻene ngaahi meʻa fakaofo, pea mo e fakamaau mei hono fofonga:

13 O seede of Israel his seruant, O the children of Iaakob his chosen.

‌ʻAkimoutolu ʻae hako ʻo ʻIsileli ko ʻene tamaioʻeiki, ʻakimoutolu ʻae fānau ʻa Sekope, ʻae kakai kuo ne fili.

14 He is the Lord our God: his iudgements are throughout all the earth.

Ko ia ko Sihova ko hotau ʻOtua ʻoku ʻi māmani kotoa pē ʻa ʻene ngaahi fakamaau.

15 Remember his couenant for euer, and the worde, which hee commanded to a thousand generations:

Mou manatu maʻuaipē ki heʻene fuakava; ʻae folofola ko ia naʻa ne fekau ʻaki ki he toʻutangata ʻe afe;

16 Which he made with Abraham, and his othe to Izhak:

‌ʻAia naʻa ne fai mo ʻEpalahame, pea mo ʻene fuakava kia ʻAisake;

17 And hath confirmed it to Iaakob for a Law, and to Israel for an euerlasting couenant,

Pea kuo ne fakapapau ia kia Sekope ko e fono tuʻumaʻu, pea ko e fuakava taʻengata ki ʻIsileli.

18 Saying, To thee will I giue the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance.

‌ʻI [heʻene ]pehē, “Ko koe te u foaki ki ai ʻae fonua ko Kēnani, ko e tufakanga ʻo homou tofiʻa;”

19 When ye were fewe in number, yea, a very fewe, and strangers therein,

Lolotonga ʻa hoʻomou tokosiʻi pe, ʻio, ko e tokosiʻi pe, pea ko e kau muli pe ʻi ai.

20 And walked about from nation to nation, and from one kingdome to another people,

Pea ʻi heʻenau ʻalu fano mei he fonua ʻe taha ki ha fonua kehe, pea mei he puleʻanga ʻe taha ki ha kakai kehe;

21 He suffered no man to do them wrong, but rebuked Kings for their sakes, saying,

Naʻe ʻikai tuku ʻe ia ke fai taʻetotonu kiate kinautolu ʻe ha tokotaha: naʻa mo e ngaahi tuʻi naʻa ne valokiʻi koeʻuhi ko kinautolu,

22 Touch not mine anoynted, and doe my Prophets no harme.

[Mo ne pehē], “ʻOua naʻa ala kiate ia kuo u pani ʻaki ʻae lolo, pea ʻoua naʻa fai ha kovi ki hoku kau palōfita.”

23 Sing vnto the Lord all the earth: declare his saluation from day to day.

Ke hiva kia Sihova, ʻa māmani kātoa; fakahāhā atu ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē ʻa ʻene fakamoʻui.

24 Declare his glory among the nations, and his wonderful workes among all people.

Fanongonongo ʻa ʻene nāunauʻia ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe kakai hiteni; mo ʻene ngaahi ngāue fakaofo lahi ki he ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē.

25 For the Lord is great and much to be praised, and hee is to bee feared aboue all gods.

He ʻoku lahi ʻa Sihova, pea ʻoku taau mo ia ʻae fakafetaʻi lahi: ʻoku taau mo ia foki ʻae manavahē ke lahi hake ʻi he ngaahi ʻotua kotoa pē.

26 For all the gods of the people are idoles, but the Lord made the heauens.

He ko e ngaahi tamapua pe ʻae ngaahi ʻotua ʻoe kakai: ka naʻe ngaohi ʻe Sihova ʻae ngaahi langi.

27 Prayse and glory are before him: power and beautie are in his place.

‌ʻOku ʻi hono ʻao ʻoʻona ʻae nāunau, mo e ʻapasia; ʻoku ʻi hono nofoʻanga ʻae mālohi mo e fiefia.

28 Giue vnto the Lord, ye families of the people: giue vnto the Lord glory and power.

‌ʻAtu kia Sihova, ʻakimoutolu ʻae ngaahi faʻahinga kakai, ʻatu kia Sihova ʻae nāunau mo e mālohi.

29 Giue vnto the Lord ye glory of his Name: bring an offring and come before him, and worship the Lord in the glorious Sanctuarie.

‌ʻAtu kia Sihova ʻae ongoongolelei ʻoku taau mo hono huafa: ʻomi ha feilaulau, pea haʻu ki hono ʻao: lotu kia Sihova ʻi he matamatalelei ʻoe māʻoniʻoni.

30 Tremble ye before him, al the earth: surely the world shalbe stable and not moue.

Ke manavahē kiate ia ʻa māmani kotoa pē: ʻe nofomaʻu foki ʻa māmani ke ʻoua naʻa ngaue ia.

31 Let the heauens reioyce, and let the earth be glad, and let them say among the nations, The Lord reigneth.

Tuku ke fiefia ʻae ngaahi langi, pea tuku ke nekeneka ʻa māmani: pea tuku ke pehē ʻe he kakai ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe ngaahi puleʻanga, “ʻOku pule ʻa Sihova.”

32 Let the sea roare, and all that therein is: Let the field be ioyfull and all that is in it.

Ke ʻuʻulu ʻae tahi, pea mo hono fonu ʻo ia: ke fiefia ʻae ngaahi tokanga ngoue mo e ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku ʻi ai.

33 Let the trees of the wood then reioyce at the presence of the Lord: for he commeth to iudge the earth.

‌ʻE toki pā atu ʻae hiva ʻoe ngaahi ʻakau ʻoe vao ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, koeʻuhi ʻoku ne hāʻele mai ke fakamaau ʻa māmani.

34 Prayse the Lord, for hee is good, for his mercie endureth for euer.

Mou tuku ʻae fakafetaʻi kia Sihova he ʻoku ne angalelei; pea ʻoku taʻengata ʻa ʻene ʻaloʻofa.

35 And say ye, Saue vs, O God, our saluation, and gather vs, and deliuer vs from the heathen, that we may prayse thine holy Name, and glorie in thy praise.

Pea mou pehē, “Fakamoʻui ʻakimautolu, ʻa koe ko e ʻOtua ʻo homau fakamoʻui, pea tānaki fakataha ʻakimautolu, pea fakahaofi ʻakimautolu mei he hiteni, koeʻuhi ke mau ʻatu ʻae fakafetaʻi ki ho huafa māʻoniʻoni, pea [mau ]vikiviki ʻi he fakamālō kiate koe.”

36 Blessed be the Lord God of Israel for euer and euer: and let all people say, So be it, and praise the Lord.

Ke fakafetaʻi kia Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻo taʻengata pea taʻengata. Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he kakai kotoa pē, “ʻEmeni,” mo nau fai ʻae fakafetaʻi kia Sihova.

37 Then he left there before the Arke of the Lordes couenant Asaph and his brethren to minister continually before the Arke, that which was to be done euery day:

Ko ia naʻa ne tuku ʻa ʻAsafi mo hono kāinga ʻi he ʻao ʻoe puha ʻoe fuakava ʻa Sihova, koeʻuhi ke tauhi maʻuaipē ʻi he ʻao ʻoe puha ʻoe fuakava, ʻo hangē ko e ngāue naʻe totonu ke fai ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē:

38 And Obed Edom and his brethren, three score and eight: and Obed Edom the sonne of Ieduthun, and Hosah were porters.

Mo ʻOpeti-ʻItomi mo honau kāinga, ko e toko onongofulu ma valu; ka ko e kau leʻo matapā ʻa ʻOpeti-ʻItomi ko e foha ʻo Situtuni, pea mo Hosa:

39 And Zadok the Priest and his brethren the Priestes were before the Tabernacle of ye Lord, in the hie place that was at Gibeon,

Pea ko Satoki ko e taulaʻeiki, pea mo hono ngaahi kāinga ko e kau taulaʻeiki, ʻi he ʻao ʻoe fale fehikitaki ʻo Sihova ʻi he potu māʻolunga ʻaia naʻe ʻi Kipione,

40 To offer burnt offrings vnto the Lord, vpon the burnt offring altar continually, in the morning and in the euening, euen according vnto all that is written in the law of the Lord, which hee commanded Israel.

Ke [nau ]ʻohake ʻae ngaahi feilaulau tutu kia Sihova ʻi he funga feilaulauʻanga ʻoe feilaulau tutu maʻuaipē ʻi he pongipongi mo e efiafi, pea ke fai ʻo fakatatau mo ia kotoa pē kuo tohi ʻi he fono ʻa Sihova, ʻaia naʻa ne fekau ki ʻIsileli;

41 And with them were Heman, and Ieduthun, and the rest that were chosen (which were appointed by names) to praise the Lord, because his mercie endureth for euer.

Pea naʻe fakataha mo kinautolu ʻa Hemani mo Situtuni mo kinautolu naʻe fili, ʻakinautolu naʻe lau ʻa honau hingoa, ke fai ʻae fakafetaʻi kia Sihova, koeʻuhi ko ʻene ʻaloʻofa ʻoku taʻengata;

42 Euen with them were Heman and Ioduthun, to make a sound with the cornets and with the cymbales, with excellent instruments of musicke: and the sonnes of Ieduthun were at the gate.

Pea fakataha mo kinautolu ʻa Hemani mo Situtuni mo ʻena ngaahi meʻalea mo ʻena ngaahi meʻa pakihi koeʻuhi ko kinautolu ʻe hiva ki he ʻOtua ʻaki ʻae ngaahi meʻa fasi hiva. Pea ko e ngaahi foha ʻo Situtuni ko e kau leʻo matapā ʻakinautolu.

43 And all the people departed, euerie man to his house: and Dauid returned to blesse his house.

Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻae kakai, ko e tangata taki taha ki hono fale ʻoʻona: pea naʻe ʻalu foki ʻa Tevita ke ne tāpuakiʻi ʻa hono fale.
