1 Meʻa Hokohoko 14

1 Ka ko eni, naʻe kouna atu ʻe Helami ko e tuʻi ʻo Taia ʻae kau talafekau kia Tevita, ke [ʻave ]ʻae ngaahi taʻanga sita, mo e kau tufunga maka, mo e kau tufunga ʻakau, ke langa ha fale moʻona.

Now Hiram king of Tyre sent messengers to David, and timber of cedars, with masons and carpenters, to build him a house.

2 Pea naʻe ʻilo ʻe Tevita kuo fakapapau meia Sihova ke tuʻi ia ki ʻIsileli, he naʻe hakeakiʻi ke māʻolunga ʻa hono puleʻanga, koeʻuhi ko ʻene kakai ʻIsileli.

And David perceived that the LORD had confirmed him king over Israel, for his kingdom was exalted on high, because of his people Israel.

3 Pea naʻe toe fakatokolahi ʻe Tevita ʻa hono ngaahi uaifi ʻi Selūsalema: pea naʻe toe tupu ʻia Tevita ʻae ngaahi foha mo e ngaahi ʻofefine kehe.

And David took more wives at Jerusalem: and David begat more sons and daughters.

4 Ko eni ia ʻae hingoa ʻoe fānau naʻa ne maʻu ʻi Selūsalema: ko Samua, mo Sopapi, mo Natani, mo Solomone,

Now these [are] the names of [his] children which he had in Jerusalem; Shammua, and Shobab, Nathan, and Solomon,

5 Mo Ipia, mo ʻIlisua, mo Ilifileti,

And Ibhar, and Elishua, and Elpalet,

6 Mo Noka, mo Nefeki, mo Safia,

And Nogah, and Nepheg, and Japhia,

7 Mo ʻIlisama, mo Peliata, mo Ilifileti.

And Elishama, and Beeliada, and Eliphalet.

8 Pea ʻi he fanongo ʻe he kakai Filisitia kuo fakanofo ʻa Tevita ko e tuʻi ki ʻIsileli kātoa, naʻe ʻalu hake ʻae kakai Filisitia kotoa pē ke kumi kia Tevita. Pea naʻe fanongo ki ai ʻa Tevita, pea naʻa ne ʻalu atu ke talia ʻakinautolu.

And when the Philistines heard that David was anointed king over all Israel, all the Philistines went up to seek David. And David heard [of it], and went out against them.

9 Pea naʻe haʻu ʻae kakai Filisitia mo nau fakamafola atu ʻakinautolu ʻi he potu talalo ʻo Lifemi.

And the Philistines came and spread themselves in the valley of Rephaim.

10 Pea naʻe fakafehuʻi ʻe Tevita ki he ʻOtua, ʻo ne pehē, “Te u ʻalu hake ke tauʻi ʻae kakai Filisitia? Pea te ke tuku mai ʻakinautolu ki hoku nima?” Pea naʻe pehē kiate ia ʻe Sihova, “Ke ke ʻalu hake; he te u tukuange ʻakinautolu ki ho nima.”

And David inquired of God, saying, Shall I go up against the Philistines? and wilt thou deliver them into my hand? And the LORD said to him, Go up; for I will deliver them into thy hand.

11 Ko ia naʻa nau hoko hake ki Peali-Pilasimi; pea naʻe teʻia ʻakinautolu ʻi ai ʻe Tevita. Pea naʻe toki pehē ʻe Tevita, “Kuo pā atu ʻae ʻOtua ki hoku ngaahi fili ʻaki ʻa hoku nima ʻo hangē ko e pā atu ha ngaahi vai: ko ia naʻe ui ai ʻae potu ko ia ko Peali-Pilasimi.”

So they came up to Baal-perazim; and David smote them there. Then David said, God hath broken in upon my enemies by my hand like the breaking forth of waters: therefore they called the name of that place Baal-perazim.

12 Pea ʻi heʻenau tuku ʻa honau ngaahi tamapua ʻi ai, naʻe fekau ʻe Tevita, pea naʻe tutu ʻakinautolu ʻi he afi.

And when they had left their gods there, David gave a commandment, and they were burned with fire.

13 Pea naʻe toe [haʻu ]ʻae kakai Filisitia ʻo fakamafola atu ʻakinautolu ʻi he potu talalo.

And the Philistines yet again spread themselves abroad in the valley.

14 Ko ia naʻe toe fehuʻi ai ʻe Tevita ki he ʻOtua; pea naʻe pehē ʻe he ʻOtua kiate ia, “ʻOua naʻa ke ʻalu hake kiate kinautolu; foki atu meiate kinautolu, pea hoko mai kiate kinautolu ʻi he potu ʻoku feʻunga tonu mo e vaoʻakau molipeli.

Therefore David inquired again of God: and God said to him, Go not up after them; turn away from them, and come upon them over against the mulberry trees.

15 Pea ʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻoka ke ka ongoʻi ʻae mumuhu ʻi he ʻuluʻi ʻakau molipeli, te ke toki ʻalu atu ki he tau: koeʻuhi kuo muʻomuʻa atu ʻiate koe ʻae ʻOtua ke ne teʻia ʻae tau ʻae kakai Filisitia.”

And it shall be, when thou shalt hear a sound of going in the tops of the mulberry trees, then thou shalt go out to battle: for God hath gone forth before thee to smite the host of the Philistines.

16 Ko ia naʻe fai ʻe Tevita ʻo hangē ko ia naʻe fekau kiate ia ʻe he ʻOtua: pea naʻa nau teʻia ʻae kautau ʻoe kakai Filisitia mei Kipione ʻo aʻu atu ki Kesa.

David therefore did as God commanded him: and they smote the host of the Philistines from Gibeon even to Gazer.

17 Pea naʻe mafola atu ʻae ongoongo ʻo Tevita ki he ngaahi fonua kotoa pē; pea naʻe fakahoko ʻe Sihova ʻae manavahē kiate ia ki he ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē.

And the fame of David went out into all lands; and the LORD brought the fear of him upon all nations.
