1 Samoela 29
1 Ary ny Filistina dia namory ny miaramilany rehetra ho ao Afeka; fa ny Isiraely kosa nitoby teo anilan’ ny loharano ao Jezirela.
Pea naʻe tānaki fakataha ʻe he kakai Filisitia ʻa ʻenau ngaahi matanga tau ki ʻEfeki: pea naʻe ʻapitanga ʻae kakai ʻIsileli ʻo ofi ki he matavai ʻaia ʻoku ʻi Sesilili.
2 Ary ireo andrianan’ ny Filistina nandroso nitarika ny miaramilany isan-jato sy isan’ arivo; fa Davida sy ny olony kosa nandroso teo aoriana niaraka tamin’ i Akisy.
Pea naʻe ʻalu atu ʻae houʻeiki ʻoe kakai Filisitia ʻi he ngaahi toko teau, mo e ngaahi toko afe: pea ʻalu ʻa Tevita mo hono kau tangata kimui mo ʻAkisi.
3 Ary hoy ireo andrianan’ ny Filistina: Haninona moa ireto Hebreo ireto? Ary hoy Akisy tamin’ ireo andrianan’ ny Filistina: Tsy io va no Davida, mpanompon’ i Saoly, mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely, ilay tatỳ amiko elaela ihany izay, ary tsy hitako izay tsininy hatrizay nialany niandany tamiko ka mandraka androany?
Pea pehē ʻe he houʻeiki ʻoe kakai Filisitia, “Ko e hā ʻoku fai ʻe he kau Hepelū ni ʻi heni?” Pea pehē ʻe ʻAkisi ki he houʻeiki ʻoe kakai Filisitia, “ʻIkai ko Tevita eni, ko e tamaioʻeiki ʻa Saula, ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻaia kuo ʻiate au ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ni, pe ko e ngaahi taʻu, pea ʻoku ʻikai te u ʻilo ha kovi ʻe taha ʻiate ia talu ʻene hau kiate au ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ni?”
4 Dia tezitra taminy ireo andrianan’ ny Filistina ka nanao taminy hoe: Avereno ihany ilehio ho any amin’ ny fonenany izay efa nomenao azy, fa aza avela hidina hiaraka amintsika hiady izy, fandrao ho tonga fahavalontsika raha miady; fa amin’ inona no hahazoan’ io sitraka amin’ ny tompony? Tsy amin’ ny lohan’ ireto olona ireto va?
Pea naʻe ʻita ʻae houʻeiki ʻoe kakai Filisitia kiate ia; pea pehē ʻe he houʻeiki ʻoe kau Filisitia kiate ia, “Ke ke fakafoki ʻae siana ni, koeʻuhi ke toe ʻalu ia ki hono potu ʻaia kuo ke tuʻutuʻuni kiate ia, pea ʻoua naʻa tuku ia ke ʻalu hifo mo kitautolu ki he tau, telia naʻa hoko ia ʻi he tau ko e fili kiate kitautolu: he te ne fakalelei ia ki heʻene ʻeiki ʻi he hā? ʻIkai ʻaki ʻae ngaahi ʻulu ʻoe kau tangata ni?
5 Tsy io moa no Davida, izay nandihizany sy nanaovany hira mifamaly hoe: “Saoly nahafaty arivoarivo, Fa Davida nahafaty alinalina?”
ʻIkai ko Tevita eni, ʻaia naʻa nau hiva fetoutou fetaliʻaki ai ʻi he ngaahi meʻe, ʻo pehē, ‘Kuo tāmateʻi ʻe Saula ʻene ngaahi toko afe, mo Tevita ʻene ngaahi toko mano?’”
6 Ary Akisy niantso an’ i Davida ka nanao taminy hoe: Raha velona koa Jehovah, marina ianao, sady sitrako ny iarahanao miditra sy mivoaka amiko eto an-toby, fa tsy hitako izay tsininao hatrizay nahatongavanao teto amiko ka mandraka androany; nefa kosa tsy sitrak’ ireo andriana ireo ianao.
Pea naʻe ui ʻe ʻAkisi ʻa Tevita, ʻo ne pehē kiate ia, “Ko e moʻoni, hangē ʻoku moʻui ʻa Sihova, naʻa ke fai angatonu, pea ko e tau fetoutoumoliliuʻaki mo koe ʻi he tau, ʻoku lelei ʻi hoku ʻao: he ʻoku ʻikai te u ʻilo ha kovi ʻiate koe talu ʻae ʻaho ʻo hoʻo haʻu kiate au ʻo hoko mo e ʻaho ni: ka ko e moʻoni ʻoku ʻikai te ke lelei ʻi he ʻao ʻoe houʻeiki.
7 Koa miverena, ary mandehana soa aman-tsara, mba tsy hanaovanao izay tsy sitrak’ ireo andrianan’ ny Filistina.
Ko ia ke ke foki ni, pea ke ʻalu fiemālie pe, telia naʻa ke fakaʻita ʻae houʻeiki ʻoe kakai Filisitia.”
8 Fa hoy Davida tamin’ i Akisy: Inona no nataoko, ary inona no hitanao tamin’ ny mpanomponao hatrizay nitoerako tatỳ aminao ka mandraka androany, no tsy hahazoako mandeha hiady amin’ ny fahavalon’ ny mpanjaka tompoko?
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Tevita kia ʻAkisi, “Ka ko e hā ia kuo u fai? Pea ko e hā ia kuo ke ʻilo ki hoʻo tamaioʻeiki lolotonga ʻe tau nonofo mo koe ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ni, koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻaku ʻalu ʻo tauʻi ʻae ngaahi fili ʻo ʻeku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi?”
9 Ary Akisy namaly an’ i Davida hoe: Fantatro fa tsara eo imasoko tahaka ny anjelin’ Andriamanitra ianao; nefa ireo andrianan’ ny Filistina no nanao hoe: Tsy hiara-miakatra amintsika hiady izy.
Pea leaange ʻa ʻAkisi ʻo pehē kia Tevita, “ʻOku ou ʻilo ʻoku ke lelei ʻi hoku ʻao, ʻo hangē ko e ʻāngelo ʻae ʻOtua: ka koeʻuhi kuo ʻosi ʻae lea ʻae houʻeiki ʻoe kakai Filisitia, ʻo pehē, ‘ʻE ʻikai ʻalu ia mo kitautolu ki he tau.’
10 Koa mifohaza maraina koa ianao mbamin’ ny mpanompon’ ny tomponao izay nanaraka anao; ary rehefa nifoha maraina ianareo, ka mazava ny andro, dia mandehana.
Pea ko ia ke ke tuʻu hengihengi hake ʻi he ʻapongipongi mo e kau tamaioʻeiki ʻa hoʻo ʻeiki ʻaia kuo haʻu mo koe: pea ʻi hoʻomou tuʻu hake leva ʻi he ʻapongipongi, pea maama ʻae ʻaho, pea mou ʻalu.”
11 Ary Davida sy ny olony nifoha maraina koa handeha maraina hiverina any amin’ ny tanin’ ny Filistina. Ary ny Filistina dia niakatra nankany Jezirela.
Ko ia naʻe tuʻu hengihengi hake ai ʻa Tevita mo hono kau tangata ʻi he pongipongi, ke foki atu ki he fonua ʻoe kakai Filisitia. Pea naʻe ʻalu hake ʻae kakai Filisitia ki Sesilili.
