1 Le ɣeyiɣi aɖe megbe la, David bia Yehowa be, “Mayi Yuda duawo dometɔ ɖeka mea?” Yehowa ɖo eŋu be, “Ɛ̃, yi.” David gabiae be, “Du ka mee mayi?” Yehowa ɖo eŋu be, “Yi Hebron.”
Pea hili ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni, naʻe fehuʻi ʻe Tevita kia Sihova, ʻo pehē, “ʻE lelei ʻa ʻeku ʻalu hake ki ha taha ʻoe ngaahi kolo ʻo Siuta?” Pea naʻe pehē kiate ia ʻe Sihova, “ʻAlu hake.” Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Tevita, “Te u ʻalu ki fē?” Pea naʻa ne pehē, “Ki Hepeloni.”
2 Ale David kplɔ srɔ̃awo, Ahinoam tso Yezreel kple Abigail, Nabal ƒe ahosi tso Karmel,
Ko ia naʻe ʻalu ʻa Tevita ki ai, ko ia mo hono ongo uaifi foki, ko ʻAhinoami ko e [fefine ]Sesilili, mo ʻApikale naʻe mali mo Napale ko e [tangata ]Kameli.

Pea ko e kau tangata naʻe ʻiate ia, naʻe ʻohake kinautolu ʻe Tevita, ko e tangata taki taha mo hono kaunga nofoʻanga: pea naʻa nau nofo ʻi he ngaahi kolo ʻo Hepeloni.
4 Yuda ƒe kplɔlawo va ɖo David fiae ɖe Yuda ƒe dukɔ ƒoƒuwo nu. Esi David se be Yabes Gileadtɔwo ɖi Saul la,
Pea naʻe haʻu ʻae kau tangata mei Siuta, pea naʻa nau fakanofo ʻi ai ʻa Tevita, ko e tuʻi ki he faʻahinga ʻo Siuta. Pea naʻa nau tala kia Tevita, ʻo pehē, “Ko e kau tangata ʻo Sepesi-Kiliati, ko kinautolu ia naʻe tanu ʻa Saula.
5 eɖo du ɖe wo be, “Yehowa nayra mi le ale si miewɔ nuteƒe na miaƒe aƒetɔ eye mieɖii kple bubu la ta.
Pea naʻe kouna ʻe Tevita ʻae kau talafekau ki he kakai ʻo Sepesi-Kiliati, ʻo ne pehē kiate kinautolu, “Ke fakamonūʻia ʻakimoutolu meia Sihova, koeʻuhi kuo mou fakahā ʻae ʻofa ni ki homou ʻeiki, ʻio, kia Saula, pea kuo mou fai hono putu.
6 Yehowa nave mia nu eye wòatsɔ eƒe lɔlɔ̃ ƒe ɖeɖefia kple nyateƒe aɖo eteƒe na mi. Nye hã mave mia nu le nu si miewɔ la ta.
Pea ʻofa ʻeni ke fakahā ʻe Sihova ʻae angalelei mo e moʻoni kiate kimoutolu: pea ko au foki, te u totongi ʻae ngāue lelei ni, koeʻuhi kuo mou fai ʻae meʻa ni.
7 Azɔ la, mele biabiam tso mia si be esi Saul ku la, mianye nye ame sesẽwo, eye miawɔ nuteƒe nam. Minɔ abe Yuda ƒe viwo, ame siwo tsɔm ɖo woƒe Fia yeye ene.”
Ko ia, tuku eni ke fakamālohi homou nima, pea mou lototoʻa: he kuo pekia ʻa homou ʻeiki ko Saula, pea kuo fakanofo au foki ʻe he faʻahinga ʻo Siuta ko e tuʻi kiate kinautolu.
8 Ke Abner, Saul ƒe aʋafia do ŋgɔ yi Mahanaim be yeatsɔ Saul ƒe viŋutsu Is Boset aɖo fiae,
Ka naʻe ʻave ʻa Isiposeti ko e foha ʻo Saula, ʻe ʻApina ko e foha ʻo Nea, ko e ʻeiki ʻoe kau tau ʻa Saula, ʻo ne ʻomi ia ki Mehanemi;

‌ʻO ne fakanofo ia ke tuʻi ʻi Kiliati, pea ki he kakai ʻAsilia, mo Sesilili, mo ʻIfalemi pea mo Penisimani, pea ki ʻIsileli kātoa.
10 Exɔ ƒe blaene hafi woɖoe fiae eye wòɖu Israel dzi ƒe eve. Ke Yuda ƒe viwo nɔ David yome
Naʻe fāngofulu taʻu ʻae motuʻa ʻa Isiposeti ko e foha ʻo Saula ʻi heʻene kamata pule ki ʻIsileli, pea naʻa ne pule ʻi he taʻu ʻe ua. Ka naʻe muimui ʻae faʻahinga ʻo Siuta kia Tevita.

Pea ko e kuonga naʻe tuʻi ai ʻa Tevita ʻi Hepeloni ki he fale ʻo Siuta, ko e taʻu ia ʻe fitu mo e māhina ʻe ono.
12 Gbe ɖeka la, Aʋafia Abner kplɔ Is Boset ƒe aʋawɔlawo tso Mahanaim yi Gibeon,
Pea naʻe ʻalu mei Mehanemi ki Kipione ʻa ʻApina ko e foha ʻo Nea, pea mo e kau tamaioʻeiki ʻa Isiposeti ko e foha ʻo Saula.

Pea naʻe ʻalu atu ʻa Soape ko e tama ʻo Seluia, pea mo e kau tamaioʻeiki ʻa Tevita, pea naʻa nau fakataha ki he anovai ʻo Kipione: pea naʻa nau nofo hifo, ko e taha ki he potu anovai ʻe taha, pea ko e taha ki he potu anovai ʻe taha.
14 Abner gblɔ na Yoab be, “Mina míaƒe ɖekakpuiawo nawɔ fefe kple woƒe yiwo míakpɔ!” Yoab lɔ̃ hegblɔ bena, “Enyo, na ne woawɔe.”
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ʻApina kia Soape, “Tuku ke tuʻu hake ni ʻae kau talavou, ʻo fakavā ʻi hota ʻao.” Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Soape, “Tuku ke nau tuʻu hake.”
15 Ale aʋakɔ eveawo dometɔ ɖe sia ɖe tia ɖekakpui wuieve na Benyamin kple Saul vi Is Boset eye wuieve bubu na David.
Pea naʻe toki tuʻu hake mo ʻalu atu ʻae toko hongofulu ma ua mei Penisimani naʻe lau, ʻaia naʻe kau kia Isiposeti ko e foha ʻo Saula, mo e toko hongofulu ma ua mei he kau tamaioʻeiki ʻa Tevita.

17 Aʋakɔ eveawo de asi aʋawɔwɔ me azɔ eye hafi zã nado la, Yoab kple David ƒe amewo ɖu Abner kple eƒe amewo tso Israel dzi.
Pea naʻe fakamanavahē ʻae tau ʻi he ʻaho ko ia: pea naʻe fakavaivai ʻa ʻApina, pea mo e kau tangata ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kakai ʻo Tevita.
18 Yoab nɔviŋutsuwo, Abisai kple Asahel hã nɔ aʋawɔlawo dome. Asahel ƒua du abe zi ene
Pea naʻe ʻi ai ʻae tama ʻe toko tolu ʻo Seluia, ko Soape, Mo ʻApisai, mo ʻAsaeli: pea naʻe veʻevave ʻa ʻAsaeli ʻo tatau mo e ʻanitelope hehengi ʻoe vao.
19 eye eya ɖeka kplɔ Abner ɖo. Medze ɖe ɖusi alo mia me le Abner yome o.
Pea naʻe tuli ʻe ʻAsaeli kia ʻApina pea ʻi heʻene ʻalu naʻe ʻikai ke feafeʻaki ia ki he toʻomataʻu pe ki he toʻohema ʻi heʻene tulia ʻa ʻApina.
20 Esi Abner nye kɔ kpɔ megbe eye wòkpɔ Asahel wògbɔna la, ebiae be, “Wòe nye ema, Asahel?” Asahel ɖo eŋu be, “Ɛ̃, nyee!”
Pea naʻe toki sio ki mui ʻa ʻApina, ʻo ne pehē, “Ko ʻAsaeli koe?” Pea naʻa ne pehē atu, “Ko au.”
21 Abner gblɔ nɛ be, “Ti ame bubu yome!” Ke Asahel gbe eye wòyi eyometiti dzi.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ʻApina kiate ia, “Ke ke foki atu ki he toʻomataʻu pe ki hoʻo toʻohema, pea ke puke ha taha ʻoe kau talavou, pea ke maʻu ʻa hono mahafu.” Ka naʻe ʻikai afe atu ʻa ʻAsaeli mei [heʻene ]tuli kiate ia.
22 Abner gado ɣli gblɔ nɛ be, “Dzo le afi sia. Ne mewu wò la, nyemate ŋu anɔ te ɖe nɔviwò Yoab nu o.”
Pea naʻe toe pehē ʻe ʻApina kia ʻAsaeli, “Tafoki atu koe mei hoʻo tuli kiate au: koeʻumaʻā ʻa ʻeku tā hifo koe ki he kelekele? Pea ka pehē ʻe fēfē ʻeku hiki ʻa hoku mata kia Soape ko ho tokoua?
23 Ke egbe, megbugbɔ o. Ale Abner ƒo akplɔ ɖe dɔ me nɛ eye akplɔ la ŋɔe do ɖe eƒe dzime. Edze anyi, heku eye ame sia ame si va ɖo afi si wòmlɔ la tɔna ɖe afi ma.

24 Azɔ la, Yoab kple Abisai ti Abner yome. Ɣe la nɔ to ɖom esi wova ɖo Ama togbɛ la gbɔ le Gia lɔƒo le mɔ si yi Gibeon gbegbe la dzi.
Naʻe tuli foki ʻa ʻApina ʻe Soape pea mo ʻApisai: pea naʻe tō ʻae laʻā feʻunga mo ʻena hoko ki he moʻunga ko ʻAma, ʻaia ʻoku hanga ki Kia ʻi he hala ʻoe toafa ʻo Kipione.

Pea naʻe toki ui ʻe ʻApina kia Soape, ʻo pehē, “ʻE tāmateʻi maʻuaipē ʻe he heletā? ʻIkai ʻoku ke ʻilo ʻe ai ha fakamamahi ʻi hono ikuʻanga?” Pea ka kuo pehē, “Pea ʻe fēfeeʻi ʻa hono fuoloa, kaeʻoua ke ke tala ki he kakai ke foki atu mei he tulia ʻa honau kāinga?”

Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Soape, “Hangē ʻoku moʻui ʻae ʻOtua, ka ne ʻikai te ke lea, pehē, kuo ʻalu ʻae kakai taki taha mei he muimui ki hono kāinga ʻi he ʻanepongipongi.”
28 Tete Yoab ku kpẽ eye eƒe amewo dzudzɔ Israel ƒe aʋakɔ la yometiti.
Ko ia naʻe ifi ai ʻe Soape ha meʻalea, pea naʻe tuʻumaʻu ʻae kakai kotoa pē, pea naʻe ʻikai te nau kei tuli ki ʻIsileli, pea naʻe ʻikai toe fai ha tau.
29 Gbe ma gbe fiẽ la, Abner kple eƒe amewo gbugbɔ to Araba. Woyi Yɔdan ƒe balime, tso tɔsisi la eye wozɔ mɔ le zã va se ɖe ŋufɔke ŋdi hafi woɖo Mahanaim.

Pea naʻe liliu mai ʻa Soape mei heʻene tuli ʻa ʻApina; pea ʻi heʻene tānaki fakataha ʻae kakai kotoa pē, ko e toko hongofulu ma toko hiva ʻoe kau tangata ʻa Tevita naʻe ʻikai ʻiloa, pea mo ʻAsaeli.
