1 Meʻa Hokohoko 18

1 Pea hili eni naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, naʻe teʻia ʻe Tevita ʻae kakai Filisitia, mo ne ikuna ʻakinautolu, mo ne kapasia ʻa Kati mo hono ngaahi kolo mei he nima ʻoe kakai Filisitia.

Now after this it came to pass that David smote the Philistines, and subdued them, and took Gath and its towns out of the hand of the Philistines.

2 Pea naʻa ne teʻia ʻa Moape; pea naʻe hoko ʻae kakai Moape ko e kau hopoate kia Tevita, pea naʻa nau ʻomi ʻae ngaahi koloa.

And he smote Moab; and the Moabites became David's servants, [and] brought gifts.

3 Pea naʻe teʻia ʻe Tevita ʻa Hetatesa ko e tuʻi ʻo Sopa ʻo aʻu ki Hamati, lolotonga ʻa ʻene ʻalu ke fakamālohi hono puleʻanga ʻi he veʻe vaitafe ko ʻIufaletesi.

And David smote Hadarezer king of Zobah to Hamath, as he went to establish his dominion by the river Euphrates.

4 Pea naʻe toʻo mai ʻe Tevita meiate ia ʻae ngaahi saliote ʻe afe, mo e kakai heka hoosi ʻe toko fitu afe, mo e kakai hāʻele ʻe toko ua mano: pea naʻe tuʻusi foki ʻe Tevita ʻae uoua ʻoe vaʻe ʻoe fanga hoosi kotoa pē ʻoe ngaahi saliote, ka naʻa ne tuku ha [hoosi ]ki he saliote ʻe teau.

And David took from him a thousand chariots, and seven thousand horsemen, and twenty thousand footmen: David also houghed all the chariot -[horses], but reserved of them a hundred chariots.

5 Pea ʻi he kuonga naʻe haʻu ai ʻae kakai Silia mei Tamasikusi, ke tokoni kia Hetatesa ko e tuʻi ʻo Sopa, naʻe tāmateʻi ʻe Tevita ʻae kakai Silia ʻae kau tangata ʻe toko ua mano mo e ua afe.

And when the Syrians of Damascus came to help Hadarezer king of Zobah, David slew of the Syrians two and twenty thousand men.

6 Hili ia naʻe tuku ʻe Tevita [ha kautau ]ki Silia-Tamasikusi: pea naʻe hoko ʻae kakai Silia ko e kau hopoate kia Tevita, pea naʻa nau ʻomi koloa. Naʻe pehē ʻae fakamoʻui ʻa Tevita ʻe Sihova ʻi he potu kotoa pē naʻa ne ʻalu ki ai.

Then David put [garrisons] in Syria-damascus; and the Syrians became David's servants, [and] brought gifts. Thus the LORD preserved David whithersoever he went.

7 Pea naʻe toʻo mai ʻe Tevita ʻae ngaahi sifa koula naʻe kofuʻaki ʻe he kakai ʻo Hetatesa, ʻo ne ʻomi ia ki Selūsalema.

And David took the shields of gold that were on the servants of Hadarezer, and brought them to Jerusalem.

8 Pea mei Tipati foki, pea mei Kuni, ko e ongo kolo ʻa Hetatesa, naʻe ʻomi ʻe Tevita ʻae palasa lahi ʻaupito, ʻaia naʻe ngaohiʻaki ʻe Solomone ʻae fuʻu ʻaiʻanga vai lahi, mo e ngaahi pou, mo e ngaahi ipu palasa.

Likewise from Tibhath, and from Chun, cities of Hadarezer, David brought very much brass, with which Solomon made the brazen sea, and the pillars, and the vessels of brass.

9 Pea ko eni, ʻi heʻene fanongo ʻe Tou ko e tuʻi ʻo Hamati ki he teʻia ʻe Tevita ʻae kautau kotoa pē ʻo Hetatesa ko e tuʻi ʻa Sopa;

Now when Tou king of Hamath heard how David had smitten all the host of Hadarezer king of Zobah;

10 Naʻa ne fekau ʻa Hatolami ko hono foha ke [ʻalu ]kia Tevita, ke ʻaʻahi fakakāinga kiate ia, mo ne lea lelei kiate ia, koeʻuhi ko ʻene tauʻi ʻa Hetatesa, mo ne teʻia ia; (he naʻe faʻa tau ʻa Hetatesa mo Tou; ) pea naʻe [ʻoange ]mo ia ʻae ngaahi ipu koula mo e siliva mo e palasa.

He sent Hadoram his son to king David to inquire of his welfare, and to congratulate him, because he had fought against Hadarezer, and smitten him; (for Hadarezer had warred with Tou; ) and [with him] all manner of vessels of gold, and silver, and brass.

11 Naʻe fakatapui foki ia ʻe Tevita kia Sihova, ʻaia mo e siliva mo e koula naʻa ne ʻomi mei he ngaahi puleʻanga [ko ia]; mei ʻItomi, pea mo Moape, pea mei he fānau ʻa ʻAmoni, pea mei he kakai Filisitia, pea mei ʻAmaleki.

Them also king David dedicated to the LORD, with the silver and the gold that he brought from all [these] nations; from Edom, and from Moab, and from the children of Ammon, and from the Philistines, and from Amalek.

12 Pea naʻe tāmateʻi ʻe ʻApisai foki ko e tama ʻa Seluia ʻae kau ʻItomi ʻe tokotaha mano mo e toko valu afe ʻi he potu talalo ʻoe māsima.

Moreover, Abishai the son of Zeruiah slew of the Edomites in the valley of salt eighteen thousand.

13 Pea naʻa ne fakanofo ʻae ngaahi kautau ʻi ʻItomi; pea naʻe hoko ʻo tamaioʻeiki kia Tevita ʻae kakai ʻItomi kotoa pē. naʻe pehē ʻae fakamoʻui ʻa Tevita ʻe Sihova ʻi he potu kotoa pē naʻa ne ʻalu ki ai.

And he put garrisons in Edom; and all the Edomites became David's servants. Thus the LORD preserved David whithersoever he went.

14 Ko ia, naʻe pule ʻa Tevita ki ʻIsileli kātoa, mo ne fai ʻae fakamaau mo e pule totonu ʻi he lotolotonga ʻo ʻene kakai kotoa pē.

So David reigned over all Israel, and executed judgment and justice among all his people.

15 Pea naʻe pule ʻa Soape ko e tama ʻa Seluia ki he kautau; pea ko Sihosafate ko e foha ʻo ʻAhilute ko e tangata tohi meʻa fakapuleʻanga ia.

And Joab the son of Zeruiah [was] over the host; and Jehoshaphat the son of Ahilud, recorder;

16 Pea ko Satoki ko e foha ʻo ʻAhitupe, mo ʻApimeleki ko e foha ʻo ʻApiata, ko e ongo taulaʻeiki ʻakinaua; pea ko Savisa ko e tangata tohi ia;

And Zadok the son of Ahitub, and Abimelech the son of Abiathar, [were] the priests; and Shavsha was scribe;

17 Pea naʻe pule ʻa Penaia ko e foha ʻo Sihoiata ki he kakai Keliti mo e kakai Peleti; pea ko e ngaahi foha ʻo Tevita naʻe tuʻu ʻo ofi ki he tuʻi.

And Benaiah the son of Jehoiada [was] over the Cherethites and the Pelethites; and the sons of David [were] chief about the king.
