< 1 Samũeli 20 >
1 Na rĩrĩ, Daudi akĩũra, akiuma Naiothu kũu Rama agĩthiĩ kũrĩ Jonathani, akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Nĩ atĩa njĩkĩte? Nĩ ngero ĩrĩkũ niĩ ngerete? Thoguo ndĩmũhĩtĩirie atĩa atĩ nĩkĩo arageria kũnjũraga?”
Pea naʻe hola ʻa Tevita mei Naoti ʻi Lama, pea ne haʻu ʻo lea kia Sonatane ʻo pehē, “Ko e hā kuo u fai? Ko e hā ʻeku hia? Pea ko e hā ʻeku angahala ʻi he ʻao ʻo hoʻo tamai, koeʻuhi ke ne kumi ʻeku moʻui?”
2 Jonathani akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Kũroaga gũtuĩka ũguo; wee ndũgũkua! Atĩrĩrĩ, baba ndarĩ ũndũ ekaga o na ũmwe mũnene kana mũnini ataamenyithĩtie. Egũkĩĩhitha ũndũ ta ũcio nĩkĩ? Ũguo ti guo!”
Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate ia, “Ke taʻofi ʻe he ʻOtua; ʻe ʻikai te ke mate koe: vakai, ʻe ʻikai ʻaupito fai ʻe heʻeku tamai ha meʻa lahi pe siʻi, ka te ne tomuʻa fakahā ia kiate au: pea ʻe fēfeeʻi ʻae fufū ʻe heʻeku tamai ʻae meʻa ni ʻiate au? ʻOku ʻikai pehē.”
3 No Daudi akĩĩhĩta akiuga atĩrĩ, “Thoguo nĩoĩ o wega mũno atĩ nĩnjĩtĩkĩrĩkĩte nĩwe, nake nĩeĩrĩte atĩrĩ, ‘Jonathani ndagĩrĩirwo nĩ kũmenya ũndũ ũyũ, ndakae kũnyiitwo nĩ kĩeha.’ No rĩrĩ, ti-itherũ o ta ũrĩa Jehova atũũraga muoyo, na ũrĩa wee mwene ũtũũraga muoyo-rĩ, hatigaire o ikinya rĩmwe gatagatĩ gakwa na gĩkuũ.”
Pea naʻe fuakava foki ʻe Tevita, ʻo ne pehē, “Kuo ʻilo pau ʻe hoʻo tamai kuo u maʻu ʻae ʻofa ʻi ho ʻao; pea ʻoku ne pehē, ʻoua naʻa ʻilo ʻe Sonatane ʻae meʻa ni telia naʻa mamahi ai ia: kae hangē ʻoku moʻoni ʻae moʻui ʻa Sihova, pea ʻoku moʻui ho laumālie, ʻoku ai ʻae laka pe taha ʻi homa vahaʻa mo e mate.”
4 Jonathani akĩĩra Daudi atĩrĩ, “Ũndũ o wothe ũngĩenda njĩke-rĩ, nĩngũgwĩkĩra.”
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sonatane kia Tevita, “Fakahā pe ko e hā ho loto, pea te u fai ia kiate koe.”
5 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Daudi akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Atĩrĩrĩ, rũciũ nĩ gĩathĩ gĩa Karũgamo ka Mweri na nĩnjagĩrĩirwo gũkaarĩanĩra hamwe na mũthamaki, no reke thiĩ ngehithe mĩgũnda-inĩ nginya mũthenya wa gatatũ hwaĩ-inĩ.
Pea pehē ʻe Tevita kia Sonatane, “Vakai, ko e tuʻu efiafi ʻapongipongi, pea ʻoku totonu ke u nofo mo e tuʻi ʻi he kai: ka ke tuku au ke u ʻalu koeʻuhi ke u toitoi ʻi he ngoue, ʻo aʻu ki he efiafi ʻo hono tolu ʻoe ʻaho.
6 No thoguo angĩnjaga-rĩ, mwĩre atĩrĩ, ‘Daudi nĩarathaithire ndĩmwĩtĩkĩrie aguthũke Bethilehemu itũũra-inĩ rĩao, nĩ ũndũ nĩ kũrĩ na igongona rĩkũrutwo kuo rĩa mwaka nĩ ũndũ wa mũhĩrĩga wao wothe.’
Kapau ʻe ʻekeʻi au ʻe hoʻo tamai, pea ke pehē, naʻe kole fakamātoato ʻe Tevita kiate au, ke ne fakatoʻotoʻo ki Petelihema ko ʻene kolo: he ʻoku ʻi ai ʻae kātoanga ʻoku fai ʻi he taʻu kotoa pē ʻi honau fale.
7 Angĩkoiga atĩrĩ, ‘Nĩ wega mũno,’ hĩndĩ ĩyo ndungata yaku nĩĩgakorwo na thayũ. No angĩkaarakara-rĩ, nĩũkamenya na ma atĩ nĩatuĩte nĩekũngera ngero.
Kapau te ne pehē ʻe ia, ‘ʻOku lelei;’ ʻe ʻi hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ʻae fiemālie: pea kapau ʻe ʻita lahi ia, ke ʻilo pau ai ʻe koe, kuo tuʻutuʻuni ʻae kovi.
8 No wee rĩ, onania wendani kũrĩ ndungata yaku, nĩ ũndũ nĩũgĩĩte kĩrĩkanĩro nayo mbere ya Jehova. Kũngĩkorwo ndĩ na mahĩtia-rĩ, njũraga wee mwene! Ũgũkĩneana kũrĩ thoguo nĩkĩ?”
Ko ia ke ke fai angaʻofa ki hoʻo tamaioʻeiki; he kuo ke fakahoko hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ko au ki he fuakava ʻa Sihova mo koe; ka ko eni kapau ʻoku ai ha hia ʻiate au, ke ke tāmateʻi au ʻe koe; he koeʻumaʻā hoʻo ʻomi au ki hoʻo tamai?”
9 Jonathani akiuga atĩrĩ, “Kũroaga gũtuĩka ũguo! Korwo nĩ kũrĩ kaũndũ o na kanini njũũĩ atĩ baba nĩatuĩte gũkũgera ngero-rĩ, githĩ to ngwĩre?”
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sonatane, “Ke mamaʻo ia ʻiate koe: he kapau kuo u ʻilo kuo pau pe ʻae loto ʻo ʻeku tamai ke fakahoko ʻae kovi kiate koe, ʻe ʻikai koā te u tala ia kiate koe?”
10 Daudi akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Thoguo angĩgagũcookeria arĩ na marũrũ-rĩ, ngaaheo ũhoro nũũ?”
Pea pehē ʻe Tevita kia Sonatane, “Ko hai te ne fakahā ia kiate au? Pea ʻe fefei ʻo kapau ʻe tali lea mālohi kiate koe ʻe hoʻo tamai?”
11 Jonathani akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ũka, tũthiĩ na kũu mũgũnda-inĩ.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio magĩthiĩ kuo me hamwe.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sonatane kia Tevita, “Haʻu ke ta ō kituʻa ki he ngoue.” Pea ne na ō fakatouʻosi pe kituaʻā ki he ngoue.
12 Ningĩ Jonathani akĩĩra Daudi atĩrĩ, “Nĩ ũndũ wa Jehova o we Ngai wa Isiraeli, ti-itherũ nĩngaaria na baba ihinda ta rĩrĩ mũthenya wa gatatũ! Angĩgakorwo akenetio nĩ wee-rĩ, githĩ to ngũtũmanĩre ngũmenyithie ũhoro ũcio?
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sonatane kia Tevita, “ʻE Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻo kau ka ʻeke ki heʻeku tamai ʻi he feituʻulaʻā ni ʻapongipongi, pea ʻi hono tolu ʻoe ʻaho, pea vakai, kapau ʻoku ai ha lelei kia Tevita, kae ʻikai te u fekau kiate koe, mo fakahā ia kiate koe;
13 No baba angĩtua nĩ egũkũgera ngero-rĩ, Jehova aroherithia na anjĩke ũũru makĩria, ingĩkaaga gũkũmenyithia, na ndeke ũthiĩ na thayũ. Jehova arokorwo hamwe nawe o ta ũrĩa akoretwo arĩ hamwe na baba.
Ke fai pehē ʻe Sihova kia Sonatane mo lahi hake ʻaupito: pea kapau ʻoku lelei ki heʻeku tamai ke fai kovi kiate koe, te u toki fakahā ia kiate koe, pea te u fekau koe ke ke ʻalu, koeʻuhi ke ke ʻalu fiemālie pe: pea ke ʻiate koe ʻa Sihova ʻo hangē ko ʻene ʻi heʻeku tamai.
14 No nyonia tha iria itathiraga ta iria cia Jehova matukũ marĩa ngũtũũra muoyo, nĩguo ndikanooragwo,
Pea te ke fakahā ʻe koe ʻae angaʻofa ʻa Sihova kiate au, ʻikai ʻi heʻeku kei moʻui ni pē, koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻaku mate:
15 na ndũkaneherie tha ciaku o na rĩ kuuma kũrĩ nyũmba yakwa, o na hĩndĩ ĩrĩa Jehova agaakorwo aniinĩte thũ ciothe cia Daudi gũkũ thĩ.”
Ka ʻe ʻikai te ke tutuʻu ke motu hoʻo ʻofa mei hoku fale ʻo taʻengata; neongo hono motuhi ʻe Sihova ʻae ngaahi fili ʻo Tevita taki taha kotoa pē mei he funga ʻo māmani.
16 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Jonathani akĩgĩa kĩrĩkanĩro na nyũmba ya Daudi, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Jehova arorĩhĩria Daudi kũrĩ thũ ciake.”
Ko ia naʻe fai ʻe Sonatane [ʻae fuakava ]mo e fale ʻo Tevita, ʻo pehē, Tuku ke ʻeke ia ʻe Sihova ʻi he nima ʻoe ngaahi fili ʻo Tevita.”
17 Nake Jonathani agĩtũma Daudi akiindĩre mwĩhĩtwa wake nĩ ũndũ nĩamwendete, nĩgũkorwo aamwendete o ta ũrĩa eyendete we mwene.
Pea naʻe toe fekauʻi ʻa Tevita ʻe Sonatane ke fuakava ko e meʻa ʻi heʻene ʻofa kiate ia: he ne ne ʻofa kiate ia hangē ko ʻene ʻofa ki hono laumālie ʻoʻona.
18 Ningĩ Jonathani akĩĩra Daudi atĩrĩ, “Rũciũ nĩ gĩathĩ gĩa Karũgamo ka Mweri. Wee nĩũkoneka ndũrĩ ho, nĩ ũndũ gĩtĩ gĩaku gĩgaakorwo kĩrĩ gĩtheri.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sonatane kia Tevita, “Ko e tuʻuefiafi ʻapongipongi: pea ʻe ʻiloʻi ʻa hoʻo taʻeʻiai koeʻuhi ʻe ava pe ʻa ho nofoʻa.
19 Mũthenya wa gatatũ gwatua gũtuka-rĩ, ũgaathiĩ handũ harĩa wehithĩte hĩndĩ ĩrĩa thĩĩna ũyũ waambĩrĩirie, na weterere hau ihiga-inĩ rĩa Ezeli.
Pea hili haʻo tatali ʻi he ʻaho ʻe taha, pea ke ʻalu vave hifo, ʻo hoko ki he potu naʻa ke toitoi ai koe ʻi he ʻaho ʻoe ngāue, pea ke tatali ʻo ofi ki he maka ko Iseli.
20 Nĩngaikia mĩguĩ ĩtatũ mwena-inĩ warĩo, taarĩ wathi ngwĩgera.
Pea te u fanaʻi ʻae ngahau ʻe tolu ʻi hono potu ʻo hangē ko ʻeku fana ki ha meʻa fakaʻilonga.
21 Ningĩ nĩngatũma kahĩĩ ndĩkeere atĩrĩ, ‘Thiĩ ũgacarie mĩguĩ ĩyo.’ Ingĩgakeera atĩrĩ, ‘Mĩguĩ ĩrĩ mwena ũyũ waku; mĩrehe haha,’ hĩndĩ ĩyo ũgooka, nĩ ũndũ ti-itherũ o ta ũrĩa Jehova atũũraga muoyo, ndũrĩ ũũru ũkoona; no thayũ.

22 No ingĩkeera kahĩĩ kau atĩrĩ, ‘Mĩguĩ ĩrĩ mbere yaku,’ hĩndĩ ĩyo no nginya ũthiĩ, nĩ ũndũ Jehova nĩakũrekereirie ũthiĩ.
Pea kapau te u pehē ki he talavou, ‘Vakai ʻoku mamaʻo atu ʻiate koe ʻae ngaahi ngahau; ke ke ʻalu koe: he kuo fekau koe ʻe Sihova ke ke ʻalu.’
23 Naguo ũhoro ũrĩa twaranĩirie nawe-rĩ, ririkana, Jehova nĩwe mũira gatagatĩ gakwa nawe nginya tene.”
Pea ʻi he meʻa kuo ta alea ki ai ʻa koe mo au, vakai, ke ʻiate kitaua maʻuaipē ʻa Sihova ʻo taʻengata.”
24 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Daudi akĩĩhitha kũu mũgũnda-inĩ, na hĩndĩ ĩrĩa gĩathĩ gĩa Karũgamo ka Mweri gĩakinyire-rĩ, mũthamaki agĩikara thĩ arĩe irio.
Pea naʻe toitoi ʻa Tevita ʻi he ngoue pea hoko ʻae efiafi, pea naʻe nofo hifo ʻae tuʻi ki he kai.
25 Agĩikara thĩ handũ harĩa aamenyerete, kũrigania na rũthingo, angʼethanĩire na Jonathani, nake Abineri agĩikara thĩ kũrigania na Saũlũ, no handũ ha Daudi haarĩ hatheri.
Pea ʻafio ʻae tuʻi ʻi hono nofoʻa, ʻo hangē ko ʻene faʻa fai, ʻio, ki he nofoʻa ofi ki he holisi: pea tuʻu ʻa Sonatane, pea nofo ʻa ʻApina ki he potu ʻo Saula, ka naʻe ava pe ʻae nofoʻa ʻo Tevita.
26 Saũlũ ndoigire ũndũ mũthenya ũcio, nĩ ũndũ eeciiririe atĩrĩ, “No nginya gũkorwo kũrĩ ũndũ wĩkĩkĩte kũrĩ Daudi akanyiitwo nĩ thaahu; ti-itherũ arĩ na thaahu.”
Ka naʻe ʻikai lea ʻa Saula ki ha meʻa ʻi he ʻaho ko ia: he naʻe mahalo ʻe ia, “Kuo hoko ha meʻa nai kiate ia, ʻoku ʻikai maʻa ai; ko e moʻoni nai ʻoku ʻikai maʻa ia.”
27 No mũthenya ũyũ ũngĩ, mũthenya wa keerĩ wa mweri ũcio, handũ ha Daudi haarĩ o hatheri rĩngĩ. Hĩndĩ ĩyo Saũlũ akĩũria mũriũ Jonathani atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kĩĩ kĩgirĩtie mũrũ wa Jesii oke iruga-inĩ ira na ũmũthĩ?”
Pea ʻi he pongipongi ʻe taha ʻaia ko hono ua ʻoe ʻaho ʻoe māhina, naʻe ava pe ʻae nofoʻa ʻo Tevita: pea pehē ʻe Saula ki hono ʻalo ko Sonatane, “Ko e hā ʻoku ʻikai haʻu ai ʻae foha ʻo Sese ki he kai, ʻaneafi, pe ko e ʻaho ni?”
28 Jonathani agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Daudi nĩarathaithire ndĩmwĩtĩkĩrie athiĩ Bethilehemu.
Pea naʻe talaange ʻe Sonatane kia Saula, “Naʻe kole fakamātoato ʻa Tevita kiate au ke ʻalu ia ki Petelihema;
29 Aranjĩĩrire atĩrĩ, ‘Reke thiĩ, nĩ ũndũ andũ a nyũmba iitũ marĩ na igongona kũu itũũra-inĩ, na mũrũ wa baba nĩanjathĩte ngorwo ho. Ingĩkorwo nĩnjĩtĩkĩrĩkĩte nĩwe-rĩ, reke thiĩ ngoone ariũ a baba.’ Ũndũ ũcio nĩguo ũgirĩtie oke metha-inĩ ya mũthamaki.”
ʻo ne pehē, ‘ʻOku ou kole kiate koe, tuku au ke u ʻalu; he ʻoku ai ʻae feilaulau ʻa homau fale ʻi he kolo; pea kuo fekau hoku tokoua ke u hoko ki ai: pea ko eni, kapau kuo u ʻilo ʻae lelei ʻi ho ʻao, ʻoku ou kole kiate koe tuku au ke u ʻalu, ʻo vakai ki hoku ngaahi kāinga.’ Ko ia ʻoku ʻikai haʻu ai ia ki he keinangaʻanga ʻoe tuʻi.”
30 Marakara ma Saũlũ magĩakanĩra Jonathani, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Wee mũrũ wa mũtumia mwaganu na mũremi! Githĩ ndiũĩ atĩ wee nĩũnyiitanĩte na mũrũ wa Jesii nĩguo agũconorithie na aconorithie nyũkwa ũrĩa wagũciarire?
Pea naʻe tupu ai ʻae houhau ʻa Saula kia Sonatane ʻo ne pehē kiate ia, “Ko e tama fakamaveuveu mo angatuʻu fau, ʻikai ʻoku ou ʻilo kuo ke fili ʻae foha ʻo Sese ke fakamaaʻi ai koe, pea ko e fakamaaʻi ʻae telefua ʻo hoʻo faʻē?

32 Jonathani akĩũria ithe atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kĩĩ gĩgũtũma ooragwo? Nĩ atĩa ekĩte?”
Pea naʻe pehēange ʻe Sonatane kia Saula ko ʻene tamai, “ʻE tāmateʻi ia koeʻumaʻā? Ko e hā ia kuo ne fai?”
33 No Saũlũ akĩmũikĩria itimũ rĩake nĩguo amũũrage. Nake Jonathani akĩmenya atĩ ithe nĩatuĩte itua rĩa kũũraga Daudi.
Pea naʻe velo leva ʻe Saula ʻae tao ke ne taaʻi ia: ko ia naʻe ʻilo ai ʻe Sonatane kuo tonupa pe ʻae loto ʻo ʻene tamai ke tāmateʻi ʻa Tevita.
34 Jonathani agĩũkĩra, akiuma metha-inĩ arĩ mũrakaru mũno; na mũthenya ũcio wa keerĩ wa mweri ũcio, ndaarĩire irio nĩ ũndũ aarĩ na kĩeha nĩ ũrĩa ithe ekĩte Daudi ciĩko cia kũmũconorithia.
Ko ia naʻe tuʻu lili hake ai ʻa Sonatane mei he keinangaʻanga, pea ʻikai kai ha meʻa ʻi hono ua ʻoe ʻaho ʻi he māhina: he naʻe mamahi ia koeʻuhi ko Tevita, he kuo fai fakamā ʻene tamai kiate ia.
35 Rũciinĩ rũrũ rũngĩ Jonathani akiumagara, agĩthiĩ kũu mũgũnda agacemanie na Daudi. Nake agĩthiĩ na kahĩĩ kanini;
Pea ʻi heʻene pongipongi, naʻe ʻalu kituaʻā ʻa Sonatane ki he ngoue ʻi he feituʻulaʻā naʻa na alea ki ai mo Tevita, pea naʻe ʻiate ia ʻae tamasiʻi.
36 akĩĩra kahĩĩ kau atĩrĩ, “Tengʼera ũgacarie mĩguĩ ĩrĩa ngũikia.” Na rĩrĩa kahĩĩ kau gaatengʼeraga-rĩ, agĩikia mũguĩ mbere yako.
Pea pehē ʻe ia ki he tama, “Lele, ʻo kumi mai ʻae ngaahi ngahau ʻoku ou fanaʻi.” Pea ʻi he lele ʻae tama, naʻe fanaʻi ʻe ia ʻae ngaahi ngahau ke mamaʻo ʻiate ia.
37 Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa kahĩĩ kau gaakinyire harĩa mũguĩ wa Jonathani wagwĩte-rĩ, Jonathani agĩgeeta agĩkeera atĩrĩ, “Githĩ mũguĩ ndũrĩ mbere yaku?”
Pea ʻi he hoko ʻae tamasiʻi ki he potu ʻoe ngahau ʻaia naʻe fanaʻi ʻe Sonatane, pea kalanga ʻa Sonatane ki he tama, ʻo ne pehē, “ʻIkai ʻoku mamaʻo atu ʻae ngahau ʻiate koe?
38 Ningĩ akĩanĩrĩra agĩkeera atĩrĩ, “Hiũha! Hanyũka! Ndũkarũgame!” Kahĩĩ kau gakĩoya mũguĩ ũcio, gagĩcooka kũrĩ mwathi wako.
Pea kalanga ʻa Sonatane ki he tama, ʻo pehē, ‘Fakatoʻotoʻo, faivave, ʻoua naʻa tatali.’” Pea tānaki ʻe he tamasiʻi ʻa Sonatane ʻae ngaahi ngahau, pea haʻu ia ki heʻene ʻeiki.
39 (Kahĩĩ kau gatirĩ ũndũ kaamenyaga ũhoro-inĩ ũcio; tiga Jonathani na Daudi maamenyaga ũhoro ũcio.)
Ka naʻe ʻikai ʻilo ha meʻa ʻe he tamasiʻi: ko Sonatane mo Tevita pe naʻa na ʻilo ʻae meʻa.
40 Ningĩ Jonathani akĩnengera kahĩĩ kau indo ciake cia mbaara, agĩkeera atĩrĩ, “Kuua, thiĩ na indo ici ũcicookie itũũra-inĩ.”
Pea naʻe tuku ʻe Sonatane ʻene ngaahi mahafu ki he tamasiʻi, ʻo ne pehē kiate ia, “ʻAlu ʻo ʻave ia ki he kolo.”
41 Thuutha wa kahĩĩ kau gũthiĩ-rĩ, Daudi agĩũkĩra akiuma mwena wa gũthini wa ihiga rĩu, akĩinamĩrĩra maita matatũ mbere ya Jonathani, agĩturumithagia ũthiũ wake thĩ. Magĩcooka makĩmumunyana o eerĩ, makĩrĩranĩra, no Daudi nĩwe warĩrire mũno makĩria.
Pea ʻi he ʻalu ʻae tamasiʻi, naʻe tuʻu hake ʻa Tevita mei he potu naʻe hanga ki tonga, pea fakatōmapeʻe hono mata ki he kelekele, ʻo fakapunou tuʻo tolu ia: pea naʻa na fetoutou fekita pe, ʻo fai ʻae fetāngihi, ka naʻe lahi hake ʻia Tevita.
42 Jonathani akĩĩra Daudi atĩrĩ, “Thiĩ na thayũ, tondũ nĩtwehĩtire na mwĩhĩtwa tũtũũrie ũrata gatagatĩ gaitũ thĩinĩ wa rĩĩtwa rĩa Jehova, tũkiuga atĩrĩ, ‘Jehova nĩwe mũira gatagatĩ gakwa nawe, na gatagatĩ ka njiaro ciaku na njiaro ciakwa nginya tene.’” Daudi agĩũkĩra agĩĩthiĩra, nake Jonathani agĩcooka itũũra-inĩ.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sonatane kia Tevita, ʻAlu fiemālie pe, he kuo ta fefuakava ʻi he huafa ʻo Sihova, ʻo pehē, “Ke ʻiate koe mo au ʻa Sihova, pea ke ʻi hoku hako ia mo ho hako ʻo taʻengata.” Pea naʻe tuʻu hake ia ʻo ʻalu: pea naʻe ʻalu ʻo Sonatane ki he kolo.
