1 Samuel 13
1 [was] a son of (Thirty *X*) year[s] Saul when became king he (and forty *X*) and two years he reigned over Israel.
Naʻe pule ʻa Saula ʻi he tau ʻe taha; pea hili ʻene pule ʻi he taʻu ʻe ua ki ʻIsileli,
2 And he chose for himself Saul three thousand from Israel and they were with Saul two thousand at Micmash and in [the] hill country of Beth-el and one thousand they were with Jonathan at Gibeah of Benjamin and [the] rest of the people he sent away each man to tents his.
Naʻe fili ʻe Saula ʻene kau tangata ʻe toko tolu afe mei ʻIsileli: naʻe ʻia Saula ʻi Mikimasi, pea ʻi he moʻunga ko Peteli ʻae toko ua afe, pea naʻe ʻia Sonatane ʻi Kipea ʻo Penisimani ʻae toko taha afe: pea ko hono toe ʻoe kakai naʻa ne fekau ke ʻalu ʻae tangata taki taha ki hono fale fehikitaki.
3 And he attacked Jonathan [the] garrison of [the] Philistines which [was] at Geba and they heard [the] Philistines and Saul he gave a blast on the trumpet in all the land saying let them hear the Hebrews.
Pea naʻe taaʻi ʻe Sonatane ʻae kolo tau ʻae kakai Filisitia ʻaia naʻe ʻi Kipea, pea naʻe fanongo ki ai ʻae kakai Filisitia. Pea naʻe ifi meʻalea ʻe Saula ʻi he potu fonua kotoa pē, ʻo ne pehē, Ke ongoʻi ʻe he kakai Hepelū.
4 And all Israel they heard saying he has attacked Saul [the] garrison of [the] Philistines and also it has made itself odious Israel with the Philistines and they were summoned the people after Saul Gilgal.
Pea naʻe fanongo ʻa ʻIsileli kotoa pē ki he lea, kuo taaʻi ʻe Saula ha kolo tau ʻae kakai Filisitia, pea kuo fehiʻanekina ʻaupito ʻa ʻIsileli ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kakai Filisitia. Pea naʻe fekau ke fakataha ʻae kakai kia Saula ʻi Kilikali.
5 And [the] Philistines they gathered - to fight with Israel thirty thousand chariot[s] and six thousand horsemen and a people like the sand which [is] on [the] shore of the sea for multitude and they came up and they encamped at Micmash [the] east of Beth Aven.
Pea naʻe kātoa fakataha ʻae kakai Filisitia ke tauʻi ʻa ʻIsileli, ko e ngaahi saliote ʻe tolu mano, mo e kau tangata heka hoosi ʻe toko ono afe, pea ko e kakai naʻe hangē ko e ʻoneʻone ʻi he matātahi honau tokolahi: pea naʻa nau ʻalu hake ʻo nofo ʻi Mikimasi, ʻi he potu hopoʻangalaʻā mei Pete-ʻAveni.
6 And everyone of Israel they saw that it was distress to it for it was hard pressed the people and they hid themselves the people in caves and in thickets and in cliffs and in underground chambers and in cisterns.
Pea ʻi he vakai ʻae kau tangata ʻIsileli kuo ʻākilotoa ʻakinautolu (he naʻe mamahi ʻae kakai), naʻe fakatoitoi ʻakinautolu ʻe he kakai ʻi he ngaahi ʻana, mo e ngaahi vaofihi, pea ʻi he ngaahi maka, mo e potu māʻolunga, pea ʻi he ngaahi luo.
7 And Hebrews they passed over the Jordan [the] land of Gad and Gilead and Saul still he [was] at Gilgal and all the people they trembled after him.
Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻae kau Hepelū niʻihi ki he kauvai ʻe taha ʻo Sioatani ki he fonua ʻo Kata mo Kiliati, ka ko Saula naʻe kei ʻi Kilikali ia, pea naʻe muimui tetetete pe ʻae kakai kiate ia.
8 (And he waited *Q(K)*) seven days to the appointed time which Samuel and not he had come Samuel Gilgal and it scattered the people from with him.
Pea naʻe tatali ia ʻi he ʻaho ʻe fitu ʻo fakatatau ki he ʻaho naʻe kotofa ʻe Samuela: ka naʻe ʻikai haʻu ʻa Samuela ki Kilikali; pea naʻe movetevete ʻae kakai ʻiate ia.
9 And he said Saul bring near to me the burnt offering and the peace offerings and he offered up the burnt offering.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Saula, “ʻOmi ki heni kiate au ʻae feilaulau tutu, mo e feilaulau fakalelei.” Pea naʻa ne ʻatu ʻae feilaulau tutu.
10 And it was when finished he to offer up the burnt offering and there! Samuel [was] coming and he went out Saul to meet him to bless him.
Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, hili leva ʻene fakaʻosi ʻene ʻatu ʻae feilaulau tutu, vakai, kuo hoko mai ʻa Samuela; pea naʻe ʻalu atu ʻa Saula ke fakafetaulaki kiate ia, ke na feʻiloaki.
11 And he said Samuel what? have you done and he said Saul if I saw that it was scattered the people from with me and you not you had come to [the] appointed time of the days and [the] Philistines [were] gathering Micmash.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Samuela, “Ko e hā ia kuo ke fai?” Pea pehē ʻe Saula, “Ko e meʻa ʻi heʻeku vakai kuo movete ʻae kakai meiate au, pea naʻe ʻikai te ke hoko mai ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho naʻe kotofa, pea kuo kātoa fakataha ʻae kau Filisitia ki Mikimasi:
12 And I said now they will come down [the] Philistines against me Gilgal and [the] face of Yahweh not I have entreated and I forced myself and I offered up the burnt offering.
Ko ia naʻaku pehē ai, ‘Ko eni ʻe hoko hifo kiate au ʻae kau Filisitia ki Kilikali, ka ʻoku teʻeki ai te u fai ʻae hū kia Sihova’: ko ia ne u kātaki ai au ʻo ʻatu ʻae feilaulau tutu.”
13 And he said Samuel to Saul you have acted foolishly not you have kept [the] commandment of Yahweh God your which he commanded you for now he established Yahweh kingdom your to Israel until perpetuity.
Pea pehē ʻe Samuela kia Saula, “Kuo ke fai vale: kuo ʻikai te ke tauhi ʻae fekau ʻa Sihova ko ho ʻOtua, ʻaia naʻa ne fekau kiate koe: ka ne pehē, kuo fokotuʻumaʻu ʻe Sihova ho puleʻanga ki ʻIsileli ʻo taʻengata.
14 And now kingdom your not it will endure he has sought Yahweh for himself a man according to own heart his and he has appointed him Yahweh to ruler over people his for not you have kept [that] which he commanded you Yahweh.
Ka ko eni ʻe ʻikai tuʻumaʻu ho puleʻanga: kuo fili ʻe Sihova ha tangata maʻana ʻo hangē ko hono loto ʻoʻona, pea kuo fekau ʻe Sihova kiate ia ke ʻeiki ia ki hono kakai, koeʻuhi naʻe ʻikai te ke tauhi ʻaia naʻe fekau ʻe Sihova kiate koe.”
15 And he arose Samuel and he went up from Gilgal (and he went on way his and the rest of the people it went up after Saul to meet [the] people [of] the battle and they went from Gilgal *X*) Gibeah of Benjamin and he mustered Saul the people who were found with him about six hundred man.
Pea naʻe tuʻu hake ʻa Samuela, ʻo ʻalu mei Kilikali ki Kipea ʻo Penisimani. Pea naʻe lau ʻe Saula ʻae kakai naʻe ʻiate ia, ko e toko onongeau nai.
16 And Saul and Jonathan son his and the people which was found with them [were] remaining in Geba of Benjamin and [the] Philistines they encamped in Micmash.
Pea ko Saula mo hono foha ko Sonatane, pea mo e kakai naʻe ʻiate kinaua, naʻa nau nofo ʻi Kipea ʻo Penisimani: ka naʻe ʻapitanga ʻae kakai Filisitia ʻi Mikimasi.
17 And it came out the destroyer from [the] camp of [the] Philistines three companies the company one it turned to [the] direction of Ophrah to [the] land of Shual.
Pea naʻe haʻu ʻae vahe ʻe tolu ʻoe kau maumau mei he nofoʻanga tau ʻoe kau Filisitia: naʻe ʻalu ʻae kautau ʻe taha ki he hala ki Ofila, ki he fonua ko Suali:
18 And the company one it turned [the] direction of Beth Horon and the company one it turned [the] direction the border which looks down over [the] valley of Zeboim the wilderness towards.
Pea naʻe afe ʻae kautau ʻe taha ki he hala ki Pete-holoni: pea ʻalu ʻae kautau ʻe taha ki he hala ʻoe veʻe fonua ʻoku hanga atu ki he teleʻa ʻo Sipoimi ʻo hanga atu ki he toafa.
19 And a craftsman not he was found in all [the] land of Israel for (they said *Q(K)*) [the] Philistines lest they should make the Hebrews a sword or a spear.
Pea ko eni, naʻe ʻikai ʻiloʻi ha tufunga tuki ukamea ʻi he fonua kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli: he ne pehē ʻe he kau Filisitia, Telia naʻa tuki ʻe he kau Hepelū ʻae ngaahi heletā mo e tao maʻanautolu.
20 And they went down all Israel the Philistines to sharpen each man plowshare his and mattock his and axe his and plowshare his.
Ka naʻe ʻalu hifo ki he kau Filisitia ʻae kakai ʻIsileli kotoa pē, ke fakamata taki taha ʻae tangata hono huotoho, mo ʻene hele, mo ʻene toki, mo ʻene huo keli.
21 And it was the charge two thirds of a shekel for the plowshares and for the mattocks and for three fork and for the axes and to make straight the goad[s].
Ka naʻa nau maʻu ʻae kili fakamata ki he huo keli, pea ki he hele, mo e ngaahi huhuʻi pea mo e ngaahi toki, pea ke fakamata ʻae meʻa kini.
22 And it was on a day of battle and not it was found a sword and a spear in [the] hand of any of the people which [was] with Saul and with Jonathan and it was found to Saul and to Jonathan son his.
Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi he ʻaho ʻoe tau, naʻe ʻikai ʻiloa ha heletā pe ha tao ʻi he nima ʻo ha tokotaha ʻi he kakai naʻe ʻia Saula mo Sonatane: ka ko Saula mo hono foha ko Sonatane, naʻe ʻilo ai ia.
23 And it came out [the] garrison of [the] Philistines to [the] pass of Micmash.
Pea naʻe hiki kituʻa ʻae ʻapitanga ʻoe kau Filisitia ke ʻalu ki he potu ʻaluʻanga ki Mikimasi.
