1 Samuel 28
1 It happened in those days, that the Philistines gathered their armies together for warfare, to fight with Israel. Achish said to David, "Know assuredly that you are to go out with me to battle, you and your men."
Pea ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ko ia naʻe fakataha ʻe he kakai Filisitia honau ngaahi kautau ki he tau, kenau tauʻi ʻa ʻIsileli. Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ʻAkisi kia Tevita, “Ko eni ke ke ʻilo pau te tau ō mo koe ki he tau, ʻa koe mo ho kau tangata.”
2 David said to Achish, "Therefore you shall know what your servant will do." Achish said to David, "therefore I will make you my bodyguard for ever."
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Tevita kia ʻAkisi, “Ko e moʻoni te ke ʻilo pau ʻaia ʻoku mafai ʻe hoʻo tamaioʻeiki. Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ʻAkisi kia Tevita, “Ko ia te u fakanofo koe koe tauhi ʻo hoku ʻulu ʻo taʻengata.
3 Now Samuel was dead, and all Israel had lamented him, and buried him in Ramah, even in his own city. Saul had removed the mediums, and spiritists, from the land.
Ka ko eni kuo pekia ʻa Samuela, pea naʻe tēngihia ia ʻe ʻIsileli kotoa pē, ʻonau tanu ia ʻi Lama, ʻio, ʻi heʻene kolo nofoʻanga ʻaʻana. Pea kuo ʻosi hono kapusi ʻe Saula mei he fonua ʻakinautolu naʻe maʻu laumālie kovi, mo e kau kikite loi.
4 The Philistines gathered themselves together, and came and camped in Shunem: and Saul gathered all Israel together, and they camped in Gilboa.
Pea fakakātoa fakataha ʻakinautolu ʻe he kakai Filisitia, ʻonau haʻu ʻo ʻapitanga ʻi Sunemi: pea naʻe fakakātoa fakataha ʻe Saula ʻa ʻIsileli kotoa pē, ʻonau haʻu ʻo ʻapitanga ʻi Kilipoa.
5 When Saul saw the army of the Philistines, he was afraid, and his heart trembled greatly.
Pea ʻi he mamata ʻa Saula ki he tau ʻae Filisitia, naʻe manavahē ia, pea tetetete lahi hono loto.
6 When Saul inquired of YHWH, YHWH did not answer him, neither by dreams, nor by Urim, nor by prophets.
Pea ʻi he fehuʻi ʻa Saula kia Sihova, naʻe ʻikai tali ia ʻe Sihova, ʻi ha misi, pe ʻi he ʻUlimi pe ʻi he kau palōfita.
7 Then Saul said to his servants, "Find for me a woman who is a medium, that I may go to her and inquire of her." His servants said to him, "Look, there is a woman who is a medium at Endor."
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Saula ki heʻene kau tamaioʻeiki, “Mou kumi kiate au ha fefine ʻoku ʻiate ia ha laumālie kovi, koeʻuhi ke u ʻalu atu, pea fehuʻi kiate ia.” Pea naʻe pehē ʻe heʻene kau tamaioʻeiki kiate ia, “Vakai, ʻoku ai ʻae fefine ʻi Enitoa ʻoku ʻiate ia ʻae laumālie kovi.”
8 Saul disguised himself, and put on other clothing, and went, he and two men with him, and they came to the woman by night. And he said, "Divine a spirit for me, please, and bring up for me the one whom I name to you."
Pea naʻe fakapuli ia ʻe Saula, ʻo ne ʻai ʻae ngaahi kofu kehe, pea ʻalu ia, mo e ongo tangata, pea naʻa nau hoko atu ki he fefine ʻi he poʻuli: pea pehē ʻe ia, “ʻOku ou kole kiate koe, ke ke fakahā kiate au ʻi he laumālie, pea ke ʻohake kiate au, ʻaia te u tala kiate koe.”
9 The woman said to him, "Look, you know what Saul has done, how he has cut off the mediums and spiritists out of the land. Why then do you lay a snare for my life, to cause me to die?"
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he fefine kiate ia, “Vakai, ʻoku ke ʻilo ʻaia kuo fai ʻe Saula, koeʻuhi ko ʻene tāmateʻi ʻakinautolu naʻe ʻi ai ʻae ngaahi laumālie kovi, mo e kau kikite, mei he fonua: ko ia ko e hā ʻoku ke tō ai ʻae tauhele ki heʻeku moʻui, ke u mate ai au?”
10 But Saul swore to her, saying, "As YHWH lives, no punishment will come upon you for this thing."
Pea naʻe fuakava ʻa Saula kiate ia ʻia Sihova, ʻo pehē, “Hangē ʻoku moʻui ʻa Sihova ʻe ʻikai hoko ha tautea kiate koe, koeʻuhi ko e meʻa ni.”
11 Then the woman said, "Whom shall I bring up to you?" He said, "Bring Samuel up for me."
Pea naʻe pehē ai ʻe he fefine kiate ia, “Ko hai ia te u ʻohake kiate koe?” Pea pehē ʻe ia, “ʻOhake kiate au ʻa Samuela.”
12 When the woman saw Samuel, she cried with a loud voice; and the woman spoke to Saul, saying, "Why have you deceived me? For you are Saul."
Pea ʻi heʻene mamata ʻae fefine kia Samuela, naʻe tangi kalanga ʻo leʻo lahi ia: pea lea ʻae fefine kia Saula, ʻo pehē, “Ko e hā kuo ke kākaaʻi ai au? He ko Saula koe.”
13 The king said to her, "Do not be afraid. For what do you see?" The woman said to Saul, "I see a god coming up out of the earth."
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tuʻi kiate ia, “ʻOua naʻa ke manavahē: he ko e hā kuo ke mamata ai?” Pea pehē ʻe he fefine kia Saula, “Kuo u mamata ki he ngaahi ʻotua ʻoku ʻalu hake mei he kelekele.”
14 He said to her, "What does he look like?" She said, "An old man comes up. He is covered with a robe." Saul perceived that it was Samuel, and he bowed with his face to the ground, and showed respect.
Pea pehēange ʻe ia kiate ia, “Ko e hā hono anga?” Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia, ʻOku ʻalu hake ʻae tangata motuʻa; pea ʻoku pūlou ʻaki ia ʻae pulupulu.” Pea naʻe ʻilo ʻe Saula ko Samuela ia, pea tulolo ia mo hono fofonga ki he kelekele, pea naʻa ne punou hifo ia.
15 And Samuel said, "Why have you disturbed me by bringing me up?" And Saul answered, "I am very distressed, for the Philistines are fighting against me, and God has turned away from me and no longer answers me, either by prophets, or by dreams. So therefore I have called on you, that you may make known to me what I should do."
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Samuela kia Saula, “Ko e hā kuo ke ueʻi ai au ke ʻohake au?” Pea talaange ʻe Saula, “Kuo u mamahi lahi; he ʻoku tauʻi au ʻe he kakai Filisitia, pea kuo ʻalu ʻae ʻOtua ʻiate au, pea ʻoku ʻikai te ne kei talia au, ʻi he kau palōfita, pe ʻi he ngaahi misi: ko ia kuo u ui ai kiate koe, koeʻuhi ke ke fakahā kiate au ʻaia ʻoku lelei ke u fai.”
16 Samuel said, "Why then do you ask of me, since YHWH has departed from you and is with your neighbor?
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Samuela, “Pea ko e hā kuo ke fehuʻi ai kiate au, ka kuo ʻalu ʻa Sihova ʻiate koe, pea kuo hoko ia ko ho fili?
17 YHWH has done to you as he spoke by me. YHWH has torn the kingdom out of your hand, and given it to your neighbor, even to David.
Pea kuo fai ʻe Sihova kiate koe, ʻo hangē ko ʻene lea ʻiate au: he kuo hae ʻe Sihova ʻae puleʻanga mei ho nima, ʻo ne foaki ia ki ho kaungāʻapi, ʻio, kia Tevita:
18 Because you did not obey the voice of YHWH, and did not execute his fierce wrath on Amalek, therefore YHWH has done this thing to you this day.
Ko e meʻa ʻi he ʻikai te ke talangofua ki he leʻo ʻo Sihova, pea fai kia ʻAmaleki hono houhau lahi, ko ia kuo fai ai ʻe Sihova ʻae meʻa ni kiate koe he ʻaho ni.
19 Moreover YHWH will deliver Israel also with you into the hand of the Philistines; and tomorrow you and your sons with you will fall. YHWH will deliver the army of Israel also into the hand of the Philistines."
Pea ko eni foki ʻe tukuange ʻe Sihova ʻa ʻIsileli mo koe ki he nima ʻoe kakai Filisitia: pea ko koe mo ho ngaahi foha te mou ʻiate au ʻapongipongi: pea ʻe tukuange foki ʻe Sihova ʻae tau ʻa ʻIsileli ki he nima ʻoe kakai Filisitia.”
20 Then Saul fell immediately his full length on the earth, and was terrified, because of the words of Samuel. There was no strength in him; for he had eaten no bread all the day, nor all the night.
Pea naʻe tō lafalafa leva ʻa Saula ki he kelekele, pea ne manavahē lahi, ko e meʻa ʻi he ngaahi lea ʻa Samuela, pea naʻe ʻikai toe ha mālohi ʻiate ia; he naʻe teʻeki kai ia ʻi he ʻaho kotoa ko ia, pe ʻi he pō kotoa.”
21 And the woman came to Saul and saw that he was terrified, and said to him, "Look, your servant has obeyed you, and I have put my life in my hand and have listened to your words which you spoke to me.
Pea naʻe haʻu ʻae fefine kia Saula, ʻo ne vakai ʻoku mamahi lahi, pea naʻa ne pehē kiate ia, “Vakai, kuo fai talangofua ʻa hoʻo kaunanga ki ho leʻo, pea kuo u ʻai ʻeku moʻui ki hoku nima, pea kuo u tokanga ki hoʻo ngaahi lea ʻaia naʻa ke lea kiate au.”
22 Now therefore, please listen also to the voice of your servant, and let me set a morsel of bread before you; and eat, that you may have strength, when you go on your way."
Pea ko eni, ʻoku ou kole kiate koe, ke ke tokanga koe foki ki he leʻo ʻo hoʻo kaunanga, pea tuku ke u ʻai ʻae konga mā siʻi ʻi ho ʻao; pea ke kai koeʻuhi ke ke maʻu ʻae mālohi ʻi hoʻo ʻalu ʻi ho hala.
23 But he refused, and said, "I will not eat." But his servants, together with the woman, pressed him; and he listened to their voice. So he arose from the ground, and sat on the bed.
Ka naʻe fakafisi ia, ʻo ne pehē, “ʻE ʻikai te u kai.” Ka ko ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki fakataha mo e fefine naʻa nau fakalotoʻi ia. Ko ia naʻe tuʻu hake ia mei he kelekele, pea hekeheka ki he mohenga
24 The woman had a fattened calf in the house. She hurried and killed it; and she took flour, and kneaded it, and baked unleavened bread of it.
Pea naʻe maʻu ʻe he fefine ʻae ʻuhiki pulu sino ʻi he fale; pea naʻe fakatoʻotoʻo ʻo tāmateʻi ia, ʻo ne ʻave ʻae mahoaʻa, pea natu ia, pea taʻo ʻaki ia ʻae ngaahi foʻi mā taʻefakalēvani:
25 She brought it before Saul, and before his servants; and they ate. Then they rose up, and went away that night.
Pea naʻa ne ʻomi ia ki he ʻao ʻo Saula, pea ki he ʻao ʻo ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki; pea naʻa nau kai. Hili ia naʻa nau tuʻu hake, pea ʻalu ʻi he pō ko ia.
