1 Chronicles 12
1 Now these [are] they that came to David to Ziklag, while he yet kept himself close because of Saul the son of Kish: and they [were] among the mighty men, helpers of the war.
Ko kinautolu eni naʻe haʻu kia Tevita ki Sikilaki lolotonga ʻa ʻene kei fakafufū ia koeʻuhi ko Saula ko e foha ʻo Kisi: pea naʻa nau kau mo e kau tangata toʻa, ko e kau tokoni ʻi he tau.
2 [They were] armed with bows, and could use both the right hand and the left in [hurling] stones, and [shooting] arrows from a bow, [even] of Saul's brethren of Benjamin.
Ko honau mahafutau ʻae kaufana, pea naʻa nau faʻa ngāueʻaki honau nima toʻomataʻu mo honau toʻohema ʻi he lī ʻae maka mo e fanaʻi ʻae ngahau mei he kaufana, pea naʻa nau ʻoe kāinga ʻo Saula ʻia Penisimani.
3 The chief [was] Ahiezer, then Joash, the sons of Shemaah the Gibeathite; and Jeziel, and Pelet, the sons of Azmaveth; and Berachah, and Jehu the Antothite,
Ko ia naʻe ʻeiki hake ko ʻAhiesa, pea hoko mo ia ʻa Soasi, ko e ongo foha ʻo Simaʻa ko e tangata Kipea; mo Sisieli, mo Peleti, ko e ongo foha ʻo ʻAsimaveti; mo Pilaka, mo Sehu ko e tangata ʻAnatoti,

8 And of the Gadites there separated themselves to David in the hold in the wilderness men of might, [and] men of war [fit] for the battle, that could handle shield and buckler, whose faces [were like] the faces of lions, and [were] as swift as the roes upon the mountains;
Pea naʻe ai ʻae kakai Kata naʻe mavahe ʻakinautolu kia Tevita ke [nofo ]mo ia ʻi he potu mālohi ʻi he toafa, ko e kau tangata mālohi, mo e kau tangata ngalingali mo e fai ʻae tau, naʻa nau faʻa toʻo ʻae pā pea mo e tao, pea naʻe tatau ʻa honau mata mo e mata ʻoe fanga laione, pea naʻa nau veʻevave ʻo hangē ko e fanga tia ʻi he funga moʻunga;
9 Ezer the first, Obadiah the second, Eliab the third,
Ko e ʻuluaki ʻa Eseli, ko hono toko ua ʻa ʻOpataia, ko hono toko tolu ʻa ʻIliapi,
10 Mishmannah the fourth, Jeremiah the fifth,
Ko hono toko fā ʻa Misimani, ko hono toko nima ʻa Selemaia,
11 Attai the sixth, Eliel the seventh,
Ko hono toko ono ʻa ʻAtai, ko hono toko fitu ʻa Ilieli.
12 Johanan the eighth, Elzabad the ninth,
Ko hono toko valu ʻa Sohanani, ko hono toko hiva ʻa Elisapati.
13 Jeremiah the tenth, Machbanai the eleventh.
Ko hono toko hongofulu ʻa Selemaia, pea ko hono toko hongofulu ma taha ʻa Makipanai.
14 These [were] of the sons of Gad, captains of the host: one of the least [was] over a hundred, and the greatest over a thousand.
Ko e ngaahi foha eni ʻo Kata, naʻe ʻeiki pule ki he kautau: ko ia naʻe siʻi hifo ʻiate kinautolu naʻe pule ki he toko teau, pea ko ia naʻe lahi hake naʻe pule ki he toko afe.
15 These [are] they that went over Jordan in the first month, when it had overflowed all its banks; and they put to flight all [them] of the valleys, [both] towards the east, and towards the west.
Ko kinautolu eni naʻe ʻalu atu ʻi he Soatani ʻi he ʻuluaki māhina, lolotonga ʻa ʻene malofa atu ʻae vai ki hono kau vai kotoa pē; pea naʻa nau tuli ʻakinautolu kotoa pē naʻe nofo ʻi he ngaahi teleʻa, ki he feituʻu hahake, pea ki he lulunga.
16 And there came of the children of Benjamin and Judah to the hold to David.
Pea naʻe haʻu foki ha niʻihi mei he fānau ʻa Penisimani mo Siuta ki he kolo mālohi kia Tevita.
17 And David went out to meet them, and answered and said to them, If ye have come peaceably to me to help me, my heart shall be knit to you: but if [ye have come] to betray me to my enemies, seeing [there is] no wrong in my hands, the God of our fathers look [on it], and rebuke [it].
Pea naʻe ʻalu atu ʻa Tevita ke fakafetaulaki kiate kinautolu, pea naʻa ne lea ʻo pehē kiate kinautolu, “Kapau kuo mou omi fakamelino pe kiate au ke tokoni kiate au, ʻe kautaha ʻa hoku loto mo kimoutolu: ka ko eni, kapau kuo mou haʻu ke lavakiʻi au ki hoku ngaahi fili, ka ʻoku ʻikai ha fai fakamālohi ʻi hoku nima, ke ʻafioʻi ia ʻe he ʻOtua ʻoe tau ngaahi tamai, pea ne valoki ia.”
18 Then the spirit came upon Amasai, [who was] chief of the captains, [and he said], Thine [are we], David, and on thy side, thou son of Jesse: peace, peace [be] to thee, and peace [be] to thy helpers; for thy God helpeth thee. Then David received them, and made them captains of the band.
Pea naʻe toki hoko ʻae Laumālie kia ʻAmasai ʻaia naʻe ʻeiki hake ʻi he ngaahi ʻeikitau, [pea naʻa ne pehē], “ʻOku ʻoʻou [ʻakimautolu], ʻe Tevita, pea ʻoku [mau ]kau kiate koe, ʻa koe ko e foha ʻo Sese: ke melino, ke melino pe koe, pea ke melino ʻakinautolu ʻoku tokoni kiate koe; he ʻoku tokoni ʻe ho ʻOtua kiate koe. Pea naʻe toki maʻu ʻakinautolu ʻe Tevita, pea naʻa ne fakanofo ʻakinautolu ko e ngaahi ʻeikitau ki he kongakau.
19 And there fell [some] of Manasseh to David, when he came with the Philistines against Saul to battle: but they helped them not: for the lords of the Philistines upon advisement sent him away, saying, He will fall to his master Saul to [the jeopardy of] our heads.
Pea naʻe tō mai kia Tevita ha niʻihi meia Manase, ʻi heʻene omi fakataha mo e kakai Filisitia ke tauʻi ʻa Saula: ka naʻe ʻikai maʻu ʻekinautolu ʻenau tokoni: he naʻe loto ʻae houʻeiki ʻoe kau Filisitia ke ne ʻalu, ʻonau pehē, “ʻE kau atu ia ki heʻene ʻeiki ko Saula, pea [ʻe tuʻutāmaki ai ]ʻa hotau ʻulu ʻotautolu.”
20 And as he went to Ziklag, there fell to him of Manasseh, Adnah, and Jozabad, and Jediael, and Michael, and Jozabad, and Elihu, and Zilthai, captains of the thousands that [were] of Manasseh.
Lolotonga ʻa ʻene ʻalu ki Sikilaki, naʻe hoko mai kiate ia meia Manase, ʻa ʻAtina, mo Sosapati, mo Sitieli, mo Mikaeli, mo Sosapati, mo Ilihu, mo Silitei, ko e ngaahi ʻeiki pule [ʻakinautolu ]ki he ngaahi toko afe ʻo Manase.
21 And they helped David against the band [of the rovers]: for they [were] all mighty men of valor, and were captains in the host.
Pea naʻa nau tokoni ʻa Tevita ʻaki ha kautau: he ko e kau tangata toʻa lahi ʻaupito ʻakinautolu kotoa pē, pea ko e ngaahi ʻeiki pule ʻakinautolu ʻi he kautau.
22 For at [that] time day by day there came to David to help him, until [it was] a great host, like the host of God.
He ko e kuonga ko ia naʻe haʻu ai [ʻae kakai ]kia Tevita ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē ke tokoni kiate ia, pea naʻe fakaʻaʻau ʻo fuʻu tokolahi ʻa ʻene kautau, ʻo hangē ko e kautau ʻoe ʻOtua.
23 And these [are] the numbers of the bands [that were] ready armed to the war, [and] came to David to Hebron, to turn the kingdom of Saul to him, according to the word of the LORD.
Pea ko hono lau eni ʻoe ngaahi kongakau naʻe tali teuteu ki he tau, mo nau omi kia Tevita ʻi Hepeloni, ke liliu ʻae puleʻanga ʻo Saula kiate ia, ʻo tatau mo e folofola ʻa Sihova.
24 The children of Judah that bore shield and spear [were] six thousand and eight hundred, ready armed for war.

Pea ko Sihoiata ko ia naʻe tataki ʻae kakai ʻElone, pea naʻe ʻiate ia ʻae toko tolu afe ma fitungeau:
28 And Zadok, a young man mighty of valor, and of his father's house twenty and two captains.
Mo Satoki, ko e tangata talavou naʻe mālohi mo toʻa lahi, pea mei he fale ʻo ʻene tamai ʻae ngaahi ʻeikitau ʻe toko uofulu ma ua.
29 And of the children of Benjamin, the kindred of Saul, three thousand: for hitherto the greatest part of them had kept the ward of the house of Saul.
Pea ʻoe fānau ʻa Penisimani, ko e kāinga ʻo Saula, ko e toko tolu afe: he naʻe fai ʻo aʻu ki he kuonga ko ia ʻe honau tokolahi, ʻae tauhi ʻi he fale ʻo Saula.
30 And of the children of Ephraim twenty thousand and eight hundred, mighty men of valor, famous throughout the house of their fathers.

31 And of the half tribe of Manasseh eighteen thousand, who were expressed by name, to come and make David king.
Pea mei hono vahe ua ʻoe faʻahinga ʻo Manase [naʻe haʻu ]ʻae tokotaha mano mo e valungeau, ʻaia naʻe lau honau hingoa, ke haʻu ʻo fakanofo ʻa Tevita ke tuʻi.
32 And of the children of Issachar, [who were men] that had understanding of the times, to know what Israel ought to do; the heads of them [were] two hundred; and all their brethren [were] at their command.
Pea ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsaka, ʻakinautolu naʻe poto ʻi he ʻilo ʻae anga ʻoe kuonga, pea ke ʻilo ʻaia naʻe totonu ke fai ʻe ʻIsileli; ko e ngaahi ʻeiki ʻiate kinautolu ko e toko uangeau; pea naʻe tali ʻenau fekau ʻe honau kāinga kotoa pē.
33 Of Zebulun, such as went forth to battle, expert in war, with all instruments of war, fifty thousand, who could keep rank: [they were] not of double heart.
ʻOe fānau ʻa Sepuloni, ʻakinautolu naʻe ʻalu atu ki he tau, mo poto ʻi he tau, ʻi he ngaahi mahafutau kotoa pē, ko e toko nima mano, ʻaia naʻe faʻa tutuʻu fakataha lelei ʻi he tau: naʻe ʻikai te nau lotolotoua.
34 And of Naphtali a thousand captains, and with them with shield and spear thirty and seven thousand.

Pea ʻi he kau vai ʻe taha ʻo Soatani, ʻoe kau Lupeni, mo e kau Kata, pea mei hono vahe ua ʻoe faʻahinga ʻo Manase, ko e tokotaha kilu mo e ua mano, naʻe toʻo ʻae ngaahi mahafutau kehekehe ʻi he tau.
38 All these men of war, that could keep rank, came with a perfect heart to Hebron, to make David king over all Israel: and all the rest also of Israel [were] of one heart to make David king.
Ko e kau tangata faʻa tau eni kotoa pē, naʻe faʻa tutuʻu lelei, pea naʻa nau omi kia Tevita ʻi he loto moʻoni ki Hepeloni, ke fakanofo ʻa Tevita ke tuʻi ki ʻIsileli kātoa: pea ko hono toe foki [ʻoe kakai ]ʻi ʻIsileli naʻe loto taha pe ke fakanofo ʻa Tevita ke tuʻi.
39 And there they were with David three days, eating and drinking: for their brethren had prepared for them.
Pea naʻa nau ʻi ai mo Tevita ʻi he ʻaho ʻe tolu, pea naʻa nau kai mo inu: he naʻe fai ʻa honau tali ʻe honau ngaahi kāinga.
40 Moreover, they that were nigh them, [even] to Issachar, and Zebulun, and Naphtali, brought bread on asses, and on camels, and on mules, and on oxen, [and] provision, meal, cakes of figs, and bunches of raisins, and wine, and oil, and oxen, and sheep abundantly: for [there was] joy in Israel.
