< 1 Samuel 28 >
1 And it came to pass in those days, that the Philistines gathered their hosts together for warfare, to fight with Israel. And Achish said unto David, Know thou assuredly, that thou shalt go out with me in the host, thou and thy 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 And David said to Achish, Therefore thou shalt know what thy servant will do. And Achish said to David, Therefore will I make thee keeper of mine head 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. And Saul had put away those that had familiar spirits, and the wizards, out of 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 And the Philistines gathered themselves together, and came and pitched in Shunem: and Saul gathered all Israel together, and they pitched 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 And when Saul saw the host 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 And when Saul inquired of the LORD, the LORD answered him not, 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 said Saul unto his servants, Seek me a woman that hath a familiar spirit, that I may go to her, and inquire of her. And his servants said to him, Behold, there is a woman that hath a familiar spirit at En-dor.
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 And Saul disguised himself, and put on other raiment, and went, he and two men with him, and they came to the woman by night: and he said, Divine unto me, I pray thee, by the familiar spirit, and bring me up whomsoever I shall name unto thee.
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 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?
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 And Saul sware to her by the LORD, saying, As the LORD liveth, there shall no punishment happen to thee 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 said the woman, Whom shall I bring up unto thee? And he said, Bring me up Samuel.
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 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.
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 And the king said unto her, Be not afraid: for what seest thou? And the woman said unto 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 And he said unto her, What form is he of? And she said, An old man cometh up; and he is covered with a robe. And Saul perceived that it was Samuel, and he bowed with his face to the ground, and did obeisance.
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 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.
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 And Samuel said, Wherefore then dost thou ask of me, seeing the LORD is departed from thee, and is become thine adversary?
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 And the LORD hath wrought for himself, as he spake by me: and the LORD hath rent the kingdom out of thine hand, and given it to thy neighbour, 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 thou obeyedst not the voice of the LORD and didst not execute his fierce wrath upon Amalek, therefore hath the LORD done this thing unto thee 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 the LORD will deliver Israel also with thee into the hand of the Philistines: and tomorrow shalt thou and thy sons be with me: the LORD shall deliver the host 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 straightway his full length upon 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.
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 unto Saul, and saw that he was sore troubled, and said unto him, Behold, thine handmaid hath hearkened unto thy voice, and I have put my life in my hand, and have hearkened unto thy words which thou spakest unto 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, 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.
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, constrained him; and he hearkened unto their voice. So he arose from the earth, and sat upon 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 And the woman had a fatted calf in the house; and she hasted, and killed it; and she took flour, and kneaded it, and did bake unleavened bread thereof:
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 and she brought it before Saul, and before his servants; and they did eat. 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.
