1 καὶ ἐγένετο ἐν μηνὶ Νισαν ἔτους εἰκοστοῦ Αρθασασθα βασιλεῖ καὶ ἦν ὁ οἶνος ἐνώπιον ἐμοῦ καὶ ἔλαβον τὸν οἶνον καὶ ἔδωκα τῷ βασιλεῖ καὶ οὐκ ἦν ἕτερος ἐνώπιον αὐτοῦ
Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē ʻi he māhina ko Nisani, ʻi hono uofulu taʻu ʻo ʻAtakisekisi ko e tuʻi, naʻe ʻi hoku ʻao ʻae uaine: pea naʻaku toʻo hake ʻae uaine ʻo ʻatu ia ki he tuʻi. Pea ko eni naʻe teʻeki ai te u matapeko ʻi hono ʻao.
2 καὶ εἶπέν μοι ὁ βασιλεύς διὰ τί τὸ πρόσωπόν σου πονηρὸν καὶ οὐκ εἶ μετριάζων οὐκ ἔστιν τοῦτο εἰ μὴ πονηρία καρδίας καὶ ἐφοβήθην πολὺ σφόδρα
Ko ia naʻe pehē ai ʻe he tuʻi kiate au, “Ko e hā ʻoku matapeko ai ho mata, ka ʻoku ʻikai te ke mahaki?” ʻOku ʻikai ko e meʻa kehe ia ka ko e mamahi ʻi loto. Pea ne u manavahē lahi ai.
3 καὶ εἶπα τῷ βασιλεῖ ὁ βασιλεὺς εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα ζήτω διὰ τί οὐ μὴ γένηται πονηρὸν τὸ πρόσωπόν μου διότι ἡ πόλις οἶκος μνημείων πατέρων μου ἠρημώθη καὶ αἱ πύλαι αὐτῆς κατεβρώθησαν ἐν πυρί
Pea naʻaku pehē ki he tuʻi, “Tuku ke moʻui ʻae tuʻi ʻo taʻengata: ʻe ʻikai te u mata tangi nai ko e hā, lolotonga kuo tuku liʻaki pe ʻae kolo, ko e potu ʻoe ngaahi tanuʻanga ʻo ʻeku ngaahi tamai, pea ko hono ngaahi matapā kuo tutuʻaki ʻae afi?”
4 καὶ εἶπέν μοι ὁ βασιλεύς περὶ τίνος τοῦτο σὺ ζητεῖς καὶ προσηυξάμην πρὸς τὸν θεὸν τοῦ οὐρανοῦ
Pea pehē ai ʻe he tuʻi kiate au, “Ko e hā ia ʻoku ke kole? Ko ia naʻaku lotu ai ki he ʻOtua ʻoe langi.”
5 καὶ εἶπα τῷ βασιλεῖ εἰ ἐπὶ τὸν βασιλέα ἀγαθόν καὶ εἰ ἀγαθυνθήσεται ὁ παῖς σου ἐνώπιόν σου ὥστε πέμψαι αὐτὸν εἰς Ιουδα εἰς πόλιν μνημείων πατέρων μου καὶ ἀνοικοδομήσω αὐτήν
Pea ne u pehē ki he tuʻi, “Kapau ʻoku lelei ki he tuʻi, pea kapau kuo ʻilo ʻe hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ʻae ʻofa ʻi ho ʻao, ke ke fekau au ki Siuta, ki he kolo ʻoe ngaahi tanuʻanga ʻo ʻeku ngaahi tamai, koeʻuhi ke u langa hake ia.”
6 καὶ εἶπέν μοι ὁ βασιλεὺς καὶ ἡ παλλακὴ ἡ καθημένη ἐχόμενα αὐτοῦ ἕως πότε ἔσται ἡ πορεία σου καὶ πότε ἐπιστρέψεις καὶ ἠγαθύνθη ἐνώπιον τοῦ βασιλέως καὶ ἀπέστειλέν με καὶ ἔδωκα αὐτῷ ὅρον
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tuʻi kiate au, (pea naʻe nofo ofi kiate ia ʻae tuʻi fefine foki, ) “Ko e hā hono fuoloa ʻo ho fononga? Pea te ke toe haʻu ʻafē? Pea naʻe lelei ki he tuʻi ke ne fekauʻi au; pea ne u kotofa kiate ia ʻae kuonga.”
7 καὶ εἶπα τῷ βασιλεῖ εἰ ἐπὶ τὸν βασιλέα ἀγαθόν δότω μοι ἐπιστολὰς πρὸς τοὺς ἐπάρχους πέραν τοῦ ποταμοῦ ὥστε παραγαγεῖν με ἕως ἔλθω ἐπὶ Ιουδαν
Pea ne u pehē foki ki he tuʻi, “Kapau ʻoku lelei ki he tuʻi, tuku ke ʻomi kiate au ʻae ngaahi tohi ki he ngaahi pule ʻi he potu kauvai ʻe taha ʻoe vaitafe, koeʻuhi ke nau moimoiʻi au ʻo aʻu ki heʻeku hoko atu ki Siuta;
8 καὶ ἐπιστολὴν ἐπὶ Ασαφ φύλακα τοῦ παραδείσου ὅς ἐστιν τῷ βασιλεῖ ὥστε δοῦναί μοι ξύλα στεγάσαι τὰς πύλας καὶ εἰς τὸ τεῖχος τῆς πόλεως καὶ εἰς οἶκον ὃν εἰσελεύσομαι εἰς αὐτόν καὶ ἔδωκέν μοι ὁ βασιλεὺς ὡς χεὶρ θεοῦ ἡ ἀγαθή
Mo e tohi ʻe taha kia ʻAsafi ko e tauhi ʻoe vao ʻakau ʻoe tuʻi koeʻuhi ke ne foaki kiate au ʻae ngaahi ʻakau ke ngaohi ʻaki ʻae ʻakau lalava ki he ngaahi matapā ʻoe fale ʻaia ʻoku kau ki he faletapu, pea maʻae ʻā maka ʻoe kolo, pea maʻae fale ʻaia te u hū ki ai.” Pea naʻe tuku mai ʻe he tuʻi kiate au, ʻo hangē ko e ʻiate au ʻae nima lelei ʻo hoku ʻOtua.
9 καὶ ἦλθον πρὸς τοὺς ἐπάρχους πέραν τοῦ ποταμοῦ καὶ ἔδωκα αὐτοῖς τὰς ἐπιστολὰς τοῦ βασιλέως καὶ ἀπέστειλεν μετ’ ἐμοῦ ὁ βασιλεὺς ἀρχηγοὺς δυνάμεως καὶ ἱππεῖς
Pea ne u toki hoko atu ki he kau pule ʻi he tuʻa vaitafe, pea u tuku kiate kinautolu ʻae ngaahi tohi ʻoe tuʻi. Pea naʻe fekau ʻe he tuʻi ke ʻalu mo au ʻae ngaahi ʻeiki ʻoe tau mo e kau tangata heka hoosi.
10 καὶ ἤκουσεν Σαναβαλλατ ὁ Αρωνι καὶ Τωβια ὁ δοῦλος ὁ Αμμωνι καὶ πονηρὸν αὐτοῖς ἐγένετο ὅτι ἥκει ἄνθρωπος ζητῆσαι ἀγαθὸν τοῖς υἱοῖς Ισραηλ
Pea ʻi he fanongo ki ai ʻe Sanipalate ko e tangata Holoni, mo Topaia ko e tamaioʻeiki, ko e tangata ʻAmoni, naʻe mamahi lahi ʻakinaua, koeʻuhi ʻi he haʻu ʻae tangata ke kumi ke lelei ai ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli.
11 καὶ ἦλθον εἰς Ιερουσαλημ καὶ ἤμην ἐκεῖ ἡμέρας τρεῖς
Ko ia, ne u hoko ki Selūsalema, pea ne u ʻi ai ʻi he ʻaho ʻe tolu.
12 καὶ ἀνέστην νυκτὸς ἐγὼ καὶ ἄνδρες ὀλίγοι μετ’ ἐμοῦ καὶ οὐκ ἀπήγγειλα ἀνθρώπῳ τί ὁ θεὸς δίδωσιν εἰς καρδίαν μου τοῦ ποιῆσαι μετὰ τοῦ Ισραηλ καὶ κτῆνος οὐκ ἔστιν μετ’ ἐμοῦ εἰ μὴ τὸ κτῆνος ᾧ ἐγὼ ἐπιβαίνω ἐπ’ αὐτῷ
Pea ne u tuʻu hake ʻi he poʻuli, mo e kau tangata tokosiʻi naʻe ʻiate au; pea naʻe ʻikai te u tala ki ha tokotaha ʻaia naʻe tuku ʻe hoku ʻOtua ki hoku loto ke fai ʻi Selūsalema: pea naʻe ʻikai ha manu ʻiate au ka ko ia naʻaku heka ai.
13 καὶ ἐξῆλθον ἐν πύλῃ τοῦ γωληλα καὶ πρὸς στόμα πηγῆς τῶν συκῶν καὶ εἰς πύλην τῆς κοπρίας καὶ ἤμην συντρίβων ἐν τῷ τείχει Ιερουσαλημ ὃ αὐτοὶ καθαιροῦσιν καὶ πύλαι αὐτῆς κατεβρώθησαν πυρί
Pea ne u ʻalu kituaʻā ʻi he poʻuli ʻi he matapā ʻoe teleʻa, ʻo hangatonu mo e vaikeli ko e talākoni, pea ki he matapā fokotuʻunga veve, pea u vakai ki he ngaahi ʻā maka ʻo Selūsalema, ʻaia naʻe holoki hifo, mo e ngaahi matapā ʻaia naʻe fakaʻauha ʻaki ʻae afi.
14 καὶ παρῆλθον ἐπὶ πύλην τοῦ Αιν καὶ εἰς κολυμβήθραν τοῦ βασιλέως καὶ οὐκ ἦν τόπος τῷ κτήνει παρελθεῖν ὑποκάτω μου
Pea naʻaku ʻalu ai pe ki he matapā ʻoe matavai, pea ki he anovai ʻoe tuʻi: pea naʻe ʻikai ha potu ke ʻalu ai ʻae manu naʻaku heka ai.
15 καὶ ἤμην ἀναβαίνων ἐν τῷ τείχει χειμάρρου νυκτὸς καὶ ἤμην συντρίβων ἐν τῷ τείχει καὶ ἤμην ἐν πύλῃ τῆς φάραγγος καὶ ἐπέστρεψα
Pea naʻaku ʻalu hake ai ʻi he poʻuli ʻo ofi ki he vaitafe, ʻo vakai ki he ʻā maka, pea u tafoki ki mui, pea hū ʻi he matapā ʻoe teleʻa, pea toe foki atu ai.
16 καὶ οἱ φυλάσσοντες οὐκ ἔγνωσαν τί ἐπορεύθην καὶ τί ἐγὼ ποιῶ καὶ τοῖς Ιουδαίοις καὶ τοῖς ἱερεῦσιν καὶ τοῖς ἐντίμοις καὶ τοῖς στρατηγοῖς καὶ τοῖς καταλοίποις τοῖς ποιοῦσιν τὰ ἔργα ἕως τότε οὐκ ἀπήγγειλα
Pea naʻe ʻikai ʻilo ʻe he kau pule pe naʻaku ʻalu ki fē, pe ko ia naʻaku fai; pea naʻe teʻeki te u tala ia ki he kakai Siu, pe ki he kau taulaʻeiki, pe ki he houʻeiki, pe ki he kau pule, pe ki he toenga [kakai ]naʻe fai ʻae ngāue.
17 καὶ εἶπα πρὸς αὐτούς ὑμεῖς βλέπετε τὴν πονηρίαν ἐν ᾗ ἐσμεν ἐν αὐτῇ πῶς Ιερουσαλημ ἔρημος καὶ αἱ πύλαι αὐτῆς ἐδόθησαν πυρί δεῦτε καὶ διοικοδομήσωμεν τὸ τεῖχος Ιερουσαλημ καὶ οὐκ ἐσόμεθα ἔτι ὄνειδος
Pea ne u pehē ai kiate kinautolu, “ʻOku mou mamata ki he mamahi ʻoku tau moʻua ai, koeʻuhi kuo tutu liʻaki pe ʻa Selūsalema, pea kuo tuku hono ngaahi matapā ʻaki ʻae afi: haʻu, ketau langa hake ʻae ʻā maka ʻo Selūsalema, koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻa tau kei hoko ko e lumaʻanga.”
18 καὶ ἀπήγγειλα αὐτοῖς τὴν χεῖρα τοῦ θεοῦ ἥ ἐστιν ἀγαθὴ ἐπ’ ἐμέ καὶ τοὺς λόγους τοῦ βασιλέως οὓς εἶπέν μοι καὶ εἶπα ἀναστῶμεν καὶ οἰκοδομήσωμεν καὶ ἐκραταιώθησαν αἱ χεῖρες αὐτῶν εἰς ἀγαθόν
Pea ne u toki tala kiate kinautolu ʻae nima ʻo hoku ʻOtua ʻaia naʻe hili lelei kiate au; pea mo e ngaahi lea ʻae tuʻi foki ʻaia naʻa ne lea kiate au. Pea naʻa nau pehē, “Ke tau tuʻu hake pea langa.” Ko ia naʻa nau fakamālohiʻi honau nima ki he ngāue lelei ni.
19 καὶ ἤκουσεν Σαναβαλλατ ὁ Αρωνι καὶ Τωβια ὁ δοῦλος ὁ Αμμωνι καὶ Γησαμ ὁ Αραβι καὶ ἐξεγέλασαν ἡμᾶς καὶ ἦλθον ἐφ’ ἡμᾶς καὶ εἶπαν τί τὸ ῥῆμα τοῦτο ὃ ὑμεῖς ποιεῖτε ἦ ἐπὶ τὸν βασιλέα ὑμεῖς ἀποστατεῖτε
Ka ʻi he fanongo ki ai ʻe Sanipalate ko e tangata Holoni, mo Topaia ko e tamaioʻeiki, ko e tangata ʻAmoni, mo Kesemi ko e tangata ʻAlepea, naʻa nau kata manukiʻi ʻakimautolu, pea lumaʻi ʻakimautolu, ʻo pehē, “Ko e hā ʻae meʻa ni ʻoku mou fai? ʻOku mou loto ke angatuʻu ki he tuʻi?”
20 καὶ ἐπέστρεψα αὐτοῖς λόγον καὶ εἶπα αὐτοῖς ὁ θεὸς τοῦ οὐρανοῦ αὐτὸς εὐοδώσει ἡμῖν καὶ ἡμεῖς δοῦλοι αὐτοῦ καθαροί καὶ οἰκοδομήσομεν καὶ ὑμῖν οὐκ ἔστιν μερὶς καὶ δικαιοσύνη καὶ μνημόσυνον ἐν Ιερουσαλημ
Pea naʻaku talia ʻakinautolu, pea u pehē kiate kinautolu, “Ko e ʻOtua ʻoe langi, te ne fakamonūʻia ʻakimautolu; ko ia ko kimautolu ko ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki te mau tuʻu hake ʻo langa: ka ʻoku ʻikai ha tofiʻa, pe ha potu, pe ha fakaʻilonga ʻi Selūsalema maʻamoutolu.”
