< 2 Samuel 12 >
1 And he sent Yahweh Nathan to David and he came to him and he said to him two men they were in a city one one [was] rich and one [was] poor.
Pea naʻe fekau ʻe Sihova ʻa Natani kia Tevita. Pea naʻa ne haʻu kiate ia, ʻo ne pehē ki ai, “Naʻe ai ʻae ongo tangata ʻe toko ua, ʻi he kolo pe taha: naʻe koloaʻia ʻae tokotaha kae masiva ʻae tokotaha.
2 To [the] rich [man] it belonged flock[s] and herd[s] many very.
Naʻe maʻu ʻe he koloaʻia ʻae fanga manu siʻi mo e fanga manu lalahi ʻo lahi ʻaupito:
3 And [belonged] to the poor [man] not anything that except a ewe-lamb one small which he had acquired and he nourished it and it grew up with him and with children his together from morsel his it ate and from cup his it drank and in bosom his it lay down and it was to him like a daughter.
Ka naʻe ʻikai ha meʻa ʻi he tangata masiva, ka ko e kihiʻi lami fefine pe taha, ʻaia naʻa ne fakatau pea pusiaki: pea naʻe tupu hake ia mo ia pea mo ʻene fānau; pea naʻe kai ia ʻi heʻene meʻakai ʻaʻana, pea ne inu mei heʻene ipu ʻaʻana, pea naʻe tokoto ia ki hono fatafata, pea naʻe tatau ia kiate ia mo ha ʻofefine.
4 And he came a traveler to [the] man rich and he spared to take one of own sheep his and one of own cattle his to prepare for the traveler who had come to him and he took [the] ewe-lamb of the man poor and he prepared it for the man who had come to him.
Pea naʻe haʻu ʻae tangata fononga ki he tangata koloaʻia, pea naʻa ne mamae ke fili mei heʻene fanga manu siʻi ʻaʻana, mo ʻene fanga manu lalahi, ke teuteu ia maʻae tangata fononga ʻaia naʻe haʻu kiate ia; ka naʻa ne ʻomi ʻae lami ʻae tangata masiva, ʻo ne teuteuʻi ia maʻae tangata ʻaia naʻe haʻu kiate ia.”
5 And it burned [the] anger of David on the man exceedingly and he said to Nathan [by] [the] life of Yahweh for [is] a son of death the man who did this.
Pea naʻe tupu ʻo vela lahi ʻae houhau ʻa Tevita ki he tangata; pea naʻa ne pehē kia Netane, “Hangē ʻoku moʻui ʻa Sihova, ʻoku totonu ke mate ʻae tangata ʻaia kuo fai ʻae meʻa ni:
6 And the ewe-lamb he will restore fourfold consequence that he did the thing this and on that not he showed pity.
Pea ʻe totongi ia ʻae lami ke liunga fā, koeʻuhi ko ʻene fai ʻae meʻa ni, pea koeʻuhi naʻe ʻikai ʻiate ia ha angaʻofa.”
7 And he said Nathan to David you [are] the man thus he says Yahweh [the] God of Israel I I anointed you to king over Israel and I I delivered you from [the] hand of Saul.
Pea naʻe pehē atu ʻe Netane kia Tevita, “Ko koe ʻae tangata ko ia. ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli, naʻaku pani lolo koe ke ke tuʻi ʻi ʻIsileli, pea naʻaku fakamoʻui koe mei he nima ʻo Saula;
8 And I gave! to you [the] house of master your and [the] wives of master your in bosom your and I gave! to you [the] house of Israel and Judah and if little and I will add to you like those and like those.
Pea naʻaku tuku kiate koe ʻae fale ʻo hoʻo ʻeiki, pea u tuku ki ho fatafata ʻae ngaahi uaifi ʻo hoʻo ʻeiki, pea u ʻatu kiate koe ʻae fale ʻo ʻIsileli pea mo Siuta; pea ka ne siʻi ia, pehē te u foaki kiate koe mo e ngaahi meʻa kehekehe.
9 Why? have you despised - [the] word of Yahweh by doing the evil (in eyes my *Q(K)*) Uriah the Hittite you struck down with the sword and wife his you took for yourself to a wife and him you killed with [the] sword of [the] people of Ammon.
Ka ko e hā kuo ke paetaku ai ki he fekau ʻa Sihova, ke fai ʻae kovi ʻi hono ʻao? Kuo ke tāmateʻi ʻa ʻUlia ko e tangata Heti ʻi he heletā, pea kuo ke ʻomi ʻa hono uaifi ke mali mo koe, pea kuo ke tāmateʻi ia ʻaki ʻae heletā ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻAmoni.
10 And therefore not it will depart [the] sword from house your until perpetuity consequence for you despised me and you took [the] wife of Uriah the Hittite to become of you a wife.
Pea ko eni foki, ʻe ʻikai mahuʻi ʻae heletā mei ho fale ʻo taʻengata; koeʻuhi kuo ke manuki kiate au, pea kuo ke ʻomi ʻae uaifi ʻo ʻUlia ko e tangata Heti, ke hoko ko ho uaifi.
11 Thus - he says Yahweh here I [am] about to raise up on you calamity from own house your and I will take wives your to eyes your and I will give [them] to neighbor your and he will lie with wives your to [the] eyes of the sun this.
ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, Vakai, te u fakatupu hake ʻae kovi kiate koe mei ho fale pe ʻoʻou, pea te u toʻo atu mei ho ʻao ʻa ho ngaahi uaifi, ʻo ʻatu ʻakinautolu ki ho kaungāʻapi, pea ʻe mohe ia mo ho ngaahi uaifi ʻi he ʻao ʻoe laʻā ni.
12 For you you acted in secret and I I will do the thing this before all Israel and before the sun.
He naʻa ke fai fufū ia ʻe koe ka te u fai ʻeau ʻae meʻa ni ʻi he ʻao ʻo ʻIsileli kātoa, pea ʻi he ʻao ʻoe laʻā.’”
13 And he said David to Nathan I have sinned to Yahweh. And he said Nathan to David also Yahweh he has taken away sin your not you will die.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Tevita kia Natani, “Kuo u fai ʻae angahala kia Sihova.” Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Netane kia Tevita, “Kuo ʻave foki ʻe Sihova ʻa hoʻo angahala; ʻe ʻikai te ke mate.
14 Nevertheless for indeed you have declared contemptible [the] enemies of Yahweh by the thing this also the son born to you certainly he will die.
Ka ko eni, koeʻuhi kuo ke tuku ha tuʻunga ʻi he meʻa ni ke lauʻikovi ai ʻa Sihova ʻe hono ngaahi fili, ʻe mate moʻoni ʻae tamasiʻi kuo fanauʻi kiate koe.”
15 And he went Nathan to house his and he struck Yahweh the child whom she had borne [the] wife of Uriah to David and he was sick.
Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻa Netane ki hono fale. Pea naʻe taaʻi ʻe Sihova ʻae tamasiʻi ʻaia naʻe fānau ʻe he uaifi ʻo ʻUlia kia Tevita, pea naʻe mahaki lahi ia.
16 And he sought David God for the lad and he fasted David a fast and he went and he passed [the] night and he lay (in the sackcloth *X*) [the] ground towards.
Ko ia naʻe kole ai ʻa Tevita ki he ʻOtua koeʻuhi ko e tamasiʻi; pea naʻe fai ʻae ʻaukai ʻe Tevita, pea ne ʻalu ʻo tokoto ki he funga kelekele ʻi he pō ʻo ʻaho.
17 And they stood [the] elders of house his with him to raise him from the ground and not he was willing and not he ate with them food.
Pea naʻe tutuʻu hake ʻae kau mātuʻa ʻo hono fale kiate ia, ke hiki hake ia mei he kelekele: ka naʻe ʻikai loto ia ki ai, pea naʻe ʻikai te ne kai ha meʻa mo kinautolu.
18 And it was on the day seventh and he died the child and they were afraid [the] servants of David to tell to him - that he had died the child for they said here! when was the child alive we spoke to him and not he listened to voice our and how? will we say to him he has died the child and he will do harm.
Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, naʻe pekia ʻae tamasiʻi ki hono fitu ʻoe ʻaho. Pea naʻe manavahē ʻae kau tamaioʻeiki ʻa Tevita ke tala kiate ia kuo pekia ʻae tamasiʻi: he naʻa nau pehē, “Vakai, ʻi heʻene kei moʻui ʻae tamasiʻi, naʻa mau lea kiate ia, pea naʻe ʻikai fie tokanga ia ki homau leʻo: kae huanoa ʻa ʻene fakamamahi ia, ʻo kapau te mau tala kiate ia kuo pekia ʻae tamasiʻi?”
19 And he saw David that servants his [were] whispering to one another and he understood David that he had died the child and he said David to servants his ¿ has he died the child and they said he has died.
Ka ʻi heʻene mamata ʻa Tevita ki he fefanafanahi ʻa ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki, naʻe ʻilo ai ʻe Tevita kuo pekia ʻae tamasiʻi; ko ia naʻe pehē ai ʻe Tevita ki heʻene kau tamaioʻeiki, “Kuo pekia ʻae tamasiʻi?” Pea naʻa nau pehē, “Kuo pekia.”
20 And he arose David from the ground and he bathed and he anointed himself and he changed (garments his *Q(K)*) and he went [the] house of Yahweh and he bowed down and he went to own house his and he asked and they set for him food and he ate.
Pea naʻe toki tuʻu hake ʻa Tevita mei he kelekele, pea ne kaukau mo tākai ia, pea naʻa ne fetongi hono kofu, pea naʻe haʻu ia ki he fale ʻo Sihova, pea fai ʻene hū: pea hili ia naʻa ne haʻu ki hono fale ʻoʻona; pea ʻi he fai ʻene fekau, naʻa nau ʻomi ʻae meʻakai ki hono ʻao, pea naʻa ne kai.
21 And they said servants his to him what? [is] the thing this which you have done for sake of the child [was] alive you fasted and you wept and just when he died the child you arose and you ate food.
Pea naʻe toki pehē ai ʻe heʻene kau tamaioʻeiki kiate ia, “Ko e hā ʻae meʻa ko eni ʻaia kuo ke fai? Naʻa ke ʻaukai mo tangi koeʻuhi ko e tamasiʻi ʻi heʻene kei moʻui; ka ʻi heʻene pekia ʻae tamasiʻi, naʻa ke tuʻu hake mo ke kai ʻae meʻakai.”
22 And he said while still the child [was] alive I fasted and I wept for I said who? [is] knowing (and he will show favor to me *Q(K)*) Yahweh and he will live the child.
Pea naʻe pehēange ʻe ia, “Lolotonga ʻae kei moʻui ʻae tamasiʻi, naʻaku ʻaukai mo tangi: he naʻaku pehē, Ko hai ʻoku ʻilo, naʻa ʻaloʻofa ʻae ʻOtua kiate au, koeʻuhi ke moʻui ʻae tamasiʻi?
23 And now - he has died why? this [am] I fasting ¿ am I able to bring back him again I [am] going to him and he not he will return to me.
Ka ko eni kuo ne mate, pea ko e ʻumaʻā ʻeku ʻaukai? He te u faʻa fai ke toe omi ia? Te u ʻalu atu kiate ia ka e ʻikai toe haʻu ia kiate au.
24 And he comforted David Bath-sheba wife his and he went into her and he lay with her and she bore a son (and she called *Q(K)*) name his Solomon and Yahweh he loved him.
Pea naʻe fakafiemālieʻi ʻe Tevita ʻa hono uaifi ko Patisepa, pea naʻa ne ʻalu ange kiate ia, mo ne mohe mo ia: pea naʻa ne fanauʻi ʻae tama tangata, pea naʻa ne fakahingoa ia ko Solomone pea naʻe ʻofeina ia ʻe Sihova.
25 And he sent by [the] hand of Nathan the prophet and he called name his Jedidiah for sake of Yahweh.
Pea naʻa ne fekau kiate ia ia Netane ko e palōfita; pea naʻa ne fakahingoa ia ko Sitaia, koeʻuhi ko Sihova.
26 And he fought Joab against Rabbah of [the] people of Ammon and he captured [the] city of royalty.
Pea naʻe fai ʻae tau ʻe Soape ki Lapa ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻAmoni, mo ne kapasi ʻae kolo ʻoe tuʻi.
27 And he sent Joab messengers to David and he said I have fought against Rabbah also I have captured [the] city of the waters.
Pea naʻe ʻave ʻe Soape ʻae kau talafekau kia Tevita, ʻo ne pehē, “Kuo u tau ki Lapa, pea kuo kapasi ʻae kolo ʻoe ngaahi vai.
28 And therefore gather [the] rest of the people and encamp on the city and capture it lest I should take I the city and it will be called name my on it.
Ko ia foki, tānaki mai ʻae toenga ʻoe kakai, pea fakanofo ʻae tau ki he kolo, pea lavaʻi ia: telia naʻaku lavaʻi ʻeau ʻae kolo, pea ʻe fakahingoa ia ki hoku hingoa ʻoʻoku.”
29 And he gathered David all the people and he went Rabbah towards and he fought against it and he captured it.
Pea naʻe tānaki fakataha ʻe Tevita ʻae kakai kotoa pē, pea ne ʻalu ki Lapa, pea ne tau ki ai, ʻo ne hamu ia.
30 And he took [the] crown of king their from on head his and weight its [was] a talent of gold and a stone precious and it was on [the] head of David and [the] plunder of the city he brought out much very.
Pea naʻa ne toʻo ʻae tatā fakatuʻi mei he fofonga ʻo honau tuʻi, ko hono mamafa ko e taleniti ʻe taha ʻoe koula fakataha mo hono ngaahi maka mahuʻinga: pea naʻe ʻai ia ki he fofonga ʻo Tevita. Pea naʻa ne fetuku kituʻa ʻae koloa vete ʻoe kolo ʻo lahi ʻaupito.
31 And the people which [was] in it he brought out and he set [them] at the saws and at [the] picks of iron and at [the] axes of iron and he caused to pass them (in the brick mold[s] *Q(K)*) and thus he did to all [the] cities of [the] people of Ammon and he returned David and all the people Jerusalem.
Pea naʻa ne ʻomi kituʻa ʻae kakai naʻe ʻi ai, ʻo ne tuku ʻakinautolu ki he lalo kili, pea ki lalo ʻi he ngaahi meʻa toho vangavanga naʻe ngaohi ʻaki ʻae ʻaione, pea ki lalo ʻi he ngaahi toki ukamea, pea naʻa ne pule kenau ʻalu atu ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe tutuʻanga makaʻumea: pea naʻe pehē pe ʻa ʻene fai ki he ngaahi kolo kotoa pē ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻAmoni. Pea naʻe liu mai ki Selūsalema ʻa Tevita pea mo e kakai kotoa pē.
