Pea naʻe fekau ʻe he tuʻi kia Soape mo ʻApisai mo Itei, ʻo pehē, “Faifai mālie koeʻuhi ko au ki he talavou ko ʻApisalomi.” Pea naʻe ongoʻi ʻe he kakai kotoa pē ʻa ʻene tuku ʻe he tuʻi ʻae fekau naʻe kau kia ʻApisalomi.

Pea naʻe sio ki ai ʻae tangata ʻe tokotaha, ʻo ne tala ia kia Soape, ʻo pehē, “Vakai, naʻaku mamata kia ʻApisalomi kuo tautau ʻi ha oke.”
11 Yowab ya ce wa mutumin da ya ba shi labarin, “Mene! Ka ga shi? Don me ba ka buge shi har ƙasa nan da nan ba? Ai, da na ba ka shekel goma na azurfa da abin ɗamarar jarumi.”
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Soape ki he tangata naʻe fakahā mai ia kiate ia, “Pea vakai, naʻa ke sio [ki ai], pea ko e hā naʻe ʻikai ai te ke taaʻi hifo ia ʻi ai ki he kelekele? Ka ne ke pehē, kuo u tuku kiate koe ha [sikeli ]siliva ʻe hongofulu pea mo ha noʻovala.”
12 Amma mutumin ya ce wa Yowab, “Ko da za a auna mini azurfa dubu a hannuna, ba zan miƙa hannuna in taɓa ɗan sarki ba. A kunnuwanmu fa sarki ya umarce ka, da Abishai, da Ittai cewa, ‘Ku tsare saurayin nan Absalom a madadina.’
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tangata kia Soape, “Ka ne u maʻu ha [sikeli ]siliva ʻe afe ki hoku nima, neongo ia ʻe ʻikai te u ala atu hoku nima ki he ʻalo ʻoe tuʻi: he naʻa mau fanongo ki he fekauʻi ʻa koe mo ʻApisai, mo Itei, ʻe he tuʻi, ʻo pehē, ‘Mou vakai kotoa pē telia naʻa alasi ʻae talavou ko ʻApisalomi.’
13 Da na yi haka da na sa kaina a halin ƙaƙa-ni-ka-yi, kuma babu abin da zai ɓoyu ga sarki, kai kuwa za ka janye abinka daga gare ni.”
Ka ne u fai pehē, pehē kuo u fai ʻae lohiakiʻi ki heʻeku moʻui ʻaʻaku: he ʻoku ʻikai fufū ha meʻa mei he tuʻi, pea naʻa mo koe te ke ʻita kiate au.”

Pea naʻe toki pehē ʻe Soape, “ʻE ʻikai ʻaonga ʻa ʻeku tatali mo koe.” Pea naʻa ne toʻo ʻi hono nima ʻae foʻi tao ʻe tolu, ʻo ne velo ʻaki ia ke ʻasi ʻi he mafu ʻo ʻApisalomi lolotonga ʻa ʻene kei moʻui ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe [ʻakau ko e ]oke.
15 Masu ɗaukan kayan yaƙin Yowab goma kuwa sun kewaye Absalom, suka bubbuge shi suka kashe.
Pea naʻe kāpui mo taaʻi ʻa ʻApisalomi ʻe he kau talavou ʻe toko hongofulu naʻe fua ʻae mahafutau ʻa Soape, ʻonau tāmateʻi ia.

Pea naʻe ifi ʻe Soape ʻae meʻalea, pea naʻe foki mai ʻae kakai mei heʻenau tuli ki ʻIsileli: he naʻe taʻofi ʻae kakai ʻe Soape.
17 Suka ɗauki Absalom, suka jefa shi cikin wani babban rami a kurmin, suka kuwa tula tsibin duwatsu a kansa. Ana cikin haka, sai dukan Isra’ilawa suka tsere zuwa gidajensu.
Pea naʻa nau ʻave ʻa ʻApisalomi ʻo lī ia ki ha fuʻu luo lahi naʻe ʻi he vao ʻakau, pea naʻe fokotuʻu ki ʻolunga ʻiate ia ha fuʻu ʻesi maka lahi; pea naʻe feholaki ʻa ʻIsileli kātoa taki taha ki hono fale fehikitaki.

Ka ko eni, lolotonga ʻa ʻene kei moʻui naʻe ngaohi mo fokotuʻu ʻe ʻApisalomi maʻana ha fuʻu pou, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he teleʻa ʻoe tuʻi: he naʻa ne pehē, ʻOku ʻikai haku foha ke manatuʻi ai ʻa hoku hingoa: pea naʻa ne ui ʻae pou ki hono hingoa ʻoʻona: pea ʻoku ui ia ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ni, Ko e potu ʻo ʻApisalomi.
19 Ahimawaz ɗan Zadok ya ce, “Bari in ruga in kai wa sarki labari cewa Ubangiji ya cece shi daga hannun abokan gābansa.”
Pea naʻe toki pehē ʻe ʻAhimasi ko e foha ʻo Satoki, “Tuku eni ke u lele, pea ʻave ʻae ongoongo ki he tuʻi, ʻoe totongi kuo fai ʻe Sihova ki hono ngaahi fili.”
20 Yowab ya ce, “Ba kai ba ne za ka kai wannan labari a yau ba. Kana iya kai labarin wani lokaci, amma yau kam ba zai yiwu ba, saboda ɗan sarki ya mutu.”
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Soape kiate ia, “ʻE ʻikai te ke ʻave ha ongoongo he ʻaho ni, ka te ke ʻave ʻae ongoongo ʻi ha ʻaho ange: ka ko e ʻaho ni ʻe ʻikai te ke ʻave ha ongoongo, he kuo pekia ʻae ʻalo ʻoe tuʻi.”
21 Sai Yowab ya ce wa wani mutumin Kush, “Je ka faɗa wa sarki abin da ka gani.” Mutumin Kush ɗin kuwa ya rusuna wa Yowab, sai ya ruga a guje.
Pea naʻe toki pehē ʻe Soape kia Kusi, “ʻAlu ʻo tala ki he tuʻi ʻaia kuo ke mamata ki ai.” Pea naʻe punou hifo ʻa Kusi kia Soape, ʻo ne lele.
22 Ahimawaz ɗan Zadok ya sāke ce wa Yowab, “Ko mene ne zai faru, ina roƙonka bari in bi bayan mutumin Kush nan.” Amma Yowab ya ce, “Ɗana me ya sa kake so ka je? Ba ka da labarin da zai jawo maka lada.”
Pea naʻe toe pehē ai ʻe ʻAhimasi ko e foha ʻo Satoki kia Soape, “ʻOku ou kole kiate koe, ha meʻa pe ʻe fai, kae tuku pe au ke u lele muimui ʻia Kusi.” Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Soape, “Ko e hā ka ke ka lele ai koe, hoku foha, ka ʻoku ʻikai ʻiate koe ha ongoongo ʻoku lelei?”
23 Ya ce, “Ko mene ne zai faru, ina so in ruga da gudu.” Sai Yowab ya ce, “Ruga!” Sai Ahimawaz ya sheƙa a guje ya bi ta hanyar fili ya riga mutumin Kush nan.
[Pea naʻa ne pehē], “Neongo ia tuku ke u lele.” Pea naʻa ne pehē kiate ia, “Lele.” Pea naʻe toki lele ai ʻa ʻAhimasi ʻi he hala ʻoe toafa, pea naʻa ne liʻaki ʻa Kusi.

Pea naʻe nofo ʻa Tevita ʻi he vahaʻa ʻoe ongo matapā ʻoe kolo: pea naʻe ʻalu hake ʻae tangata leʻo ki he tuʻafale ʻi he ʻā ʻo feʻunga hake mo e matapā, pea naʻa ne hanga hake hono mata, ʻo ne sio, pea vakai naʻe lele mai ʻae tangata naʻe tokotaha pe.
25 Mai tsaro ya tā da murya ya faɗa wa sarki. Sarki ya ce, “In shi kaɗai ne, ya kawo labari mai kyau ke nan.” Mutumin ya matso kusa-kusa.
Pea naʻe kalanga ʻe he tangata leʻo, ʻo ne fakahā [ia ]ki he tuʻi. Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tuʻi, “Kapau ʻoku ne tokotaha pe ʻoku ai ha ongoongo ʻi hono ngutu.” Pea naʻa ne haʻu fakatoʻotoʻo pe, ʻo[ne ]fakaofiofi mai.
26 Sai mai tsaron ya ga wani mutum yana zuwa a guje. Sai ya tā da murya ya kira mai tsaron ƙofa ya ce, “Duba, ga wani mutum kuma yana gudu shi kaɗai!” Sarki ya ce, “Shi ma yana kawo labari mai daɗi ne.”
Pea naʻe mamata ʻe he tangata leʻo ki he tangata kehe ʻe tokotaha ʻoku lele: pea naʻe ui ʻe he tangata leʻo ki he tangata naʻe tauhi matapā, ʻo ne pehē, “Vakai ʻoku lele mai tokotaha pe ʻae tangata kehe.” Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tuʻi, “ʻOku ʻomi ʻae ongoongo ʻe ia foki.”
27 Sai mai tsaron ya ce, “A ganina gudu na farin, ya yi kama da gudun Ahimawaz, ɗan Zadok.” Sarki ya ce, “Shi mutumin kirki ne, yana zuwa da saƙo mai kyau.”
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tangata leʻo, “ʻOku ou mahalo ʻoku lele ʻaia ʻoku muʻomuʻa ʻo hangē ko e lele ʻa ʻAhimasi, ko e foha ʻo Satoki.” Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tuʻi, “Ko e tangata lelei ia, pea ʻoku ʻomi ʻe ia ʻae ongoongolelei.”
28 Sai Ahimawaz ya tā da murya ya ce wa sarki, “Kome lafiya yake!” Sai ya rusuna har ƙasa a gaban sarki ya ce, “Yabo ya tabbata ga Ubangiji Allahnka! Ya ba da mutanen da suka tayar wa ranka yă daɗe a hannunsa.”
Pea naʻe ui ʻa ʻAhimasi, ʻo ne pehē ki he tuʻi, “Ke ke fiemālie.” Pea naʻa ne tōmapeʻe hifo ʻi hono mata ki he kelekele ʻi he ʻao ʻoe tuʻi, ʻo ne pehē, “Fakafetaʻi kia Sihova ko ho ʻOtua, ʻaia kuo ne fakamoʻua ʻae kau tangata naʻe hiki hake honau nima ke angatuʻu ki hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi.”
29 Sai sarki ya ce, “Saurayin nan Absalom yana nan da rai?” Ahimawaz ya ce, “Na ga wani babban rikicewar a daidai lokacin da Yowab yake gab da aikan bawan sarki da kuma ni, sai dai ban san ko mene ne ba.”
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tuʻi, “ʻOku lelei koā ʻae talavou ko ʻApisalomi?” Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ʻAhimasi, “ʻI heʻene fekau ʻa Soape ʻae tamaioʻeiki ʻae tuʻi pea mo au ko hoʻo tamaioʻeiki, naʻaku mamata ki he fuʻu vākē lahi ka naʻe ʻikai te u ʻilo ʻa hono ʻuhinga.”
30 Sai sarki ya ce, “Koma gefe ka jira a can.” Sai ya ja gefe ya tsaya.
Pea naʻe pehē atu ʻe he tuʻi, “Tuʻu atu koe ki hena.” Pea naʻa ne tuʻu atu, mo ne tatali ai.
31 Sai ga mutumin Kush ya iso ya ce, “Ranka yă daɗe sarki, ka ji labari mai kyau! Ubangiji ya cece ka yau daga dukan waɗanda suka tayar maka.”
Pea vakai, naʻe haʻu ʻa Kusi; pea naʻe pehē ʻe Kusi, “ʻE hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi, ʻoku ou ʻomi ʻae ongoongo: he kuo fai totongi he ʻaho ni ʻe Sihova maʻau kiate kinautolu kotoa pē naʻe tuʻu angatuʻu hake kiate koe.”
32 Sarki ya ce wa mutumin Kush, “Saurayin nan Absalom, yana nan lafiya?” Mutumin Kush ya ce, “Allah yă sa abokan gāban ranka yă daɗe, da duk waɗanda suka tayar maka da mugunta, su zama kamar saurayin nan.”
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tuʻi kia Kusi, “ʻOku lelei koā ʻae talavou ko ʻApisalomi?” Pea naʻe pehēange ʻe Kusi, “Ke tatau mo e tangata talavou na, ʻae ngaahi fili ʻo hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi, pea mo kinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku tuʻu hake ke fai ha kovi kiate koe.”

Pea naʻe mamahi lahi ʻaupito ʻae tuʻi, pea naʻa ne ʻalu hake ki he potu fale naʻe ʻi ʻolunga ʻi he matanikolo mo ne tangi ai: pea lolotonga ʻa ʻene ʻalu naʻe pehē ʻa ʻene lea, “ʻE ʻApisalomi ko hoku foha, ʻa hoku foha, ʻa hoku foha ko ʻApisalomi, taumaiā kuo u mate koeʻuhi ko koe, ʻe ʻApisalomi, ko hoku foha, ko hoku foha.”
