1 Meʻa Hokohoko 19
1 Pea hili eni naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, naʻe pekia ʻae tuʻi ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻAmoni ko Nahasi, pea naʻe fetongi ia ʻi he pule ʻe hono foha.
Accidit autem ut moreretur Naas rex filiorum Ammon, et regnaret filius ejus pro eo.
2 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Tevita, Te u fai ʻofa kia Hanuni ko e foha ʻo Nahasi, koeʻuhi naʻe fai ʻofa kiate au ʻe heʻene tamai. Pea naʻe fekau atu ʻe Tevita ʻae kau tangata ke lea fakafiemālie kiate ia koeʻuhi ko ʻene tamai. Pea pehē, “Naʻe hoko atu ʻae kau tamaioʻeiki ʻa Tevita ki he fonua ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻAmoni kia Hanuni koeʻuhi ke fakafiemālie kiate ia.”
Dixitque David: Faciam misericordiam cum Hanon filio Naas: præstitit enim mihi pater ejus gratiam. Misitque David nuntios ad consolandum eum super morte patris sui. Qui cum pervenissent in terram filiorum Ammon ut consolarentur Hanon,
3 Ka naʻe pehē ʻe he houʻeiki ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻAmoni kia Hanuni, “ʻOku ke mahalo koā kuo fai fakaʻapaʻapa ʻe Tevita ki hoʻo tamai, ʻi heʻene fekau mai ʻae kau fakafiemālie kiate koe? Ka ʻikai kuo haʻu ʻa ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki kiate koe, koeʻuhi ke hakule, pea ke fakahingaʻi, pea ke matakiʻi ʻae fonua?”
dixerunt principes filiorum Ammon ad Hanon: Tu forsitan putas, quod David honoris causa in patrem tuum miserit qui consolentur te: nec animadvertis quod ut explorent, et investigent, et scrutentur terram tuam, venerint ad te servi ejus.
4 Ko ia naʻe puke ʻe Hanuni ʻae kau tamaioʻeiki ʻa Tevita, mo ne tele honau kava, mo ne tuʻusi ua ʻa honau ngaahi kofu ʻo feʻunga mo honau tuʻungaiku, mo ne toki fekauʻi ke nau ʻalu.
Igitur Hanon pueros David decalvavit, et rasit, et præcidit tunicas eorum a natibus usque ad pedes, et dimisit eos.
5 Pea naʻe ʻalu ai ʻae niʻihi mo nau fakahā kia Tevita ʻae meʻa kuo fai ki he kau tangata. Pea naʻa ne fekau atu ke fetaulaki kiate kinautolu: he naʻe mā lahi ʻaupito ʻae kau tangata. Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tuʻi, Mou nofo ki Seliko kaeʻoua ke tupu hake ʻa homou kava, pea mou toki omi.
Qui cum abiissent, et hoc mandassent David, misit in occursum eorum (grandem enim contumeliam sustinuerant) et præcepit ut manerent in Jericho, donec cresceret barba eorum, et tunc reverterentur.
6 Pea ʻi he toki ʻilo ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻAmoni kuo nau fakanamukūʻi ʻakinautolu kia Tevita, naʻe ʻave ʻe Hanuni mo e fānau ʻa ʻAmoni ha taleniti siliva ʻe afe ke totongi ʻaki ha ngaahi saliote mo e kau heka hoosi mei Mesopōtemia, pea mei Silia-Meaka, pea mei Sopa.
Videntes autem filii Ammon quod injuriam fecissent David, tam Hanon quam reliquus populus, miserunt mille talenta argenti, ut conducerent sibi de Mesopotamia, et de Syria Maacha, et de Soba currus et equites.
7 Ko ia naʻa nau totongi ke maʻu ai ʻae ngaahi saliote ʻe tolu mano mo e ua afe, pea mo e tuʻi ʻo Meaka pea mo hono kakai; pea naʻa nau haʻu ʻo fakanofo ʻenau tau ʻi Metipa. Pea naʻe fakataha ʻakinautolu ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻAmoni mei honau ngaahi kolo, ʻonau haʻu ki he tau.
Conduxeruntque triginta duo millia curruum, et regem Maacha cum populo ejus. Qui cum venissent, castrametati sunt e regione Medaba. Filii quoque Ammon congregati de urbibus suis venerunt ad bellum.
8 Pea ʻi heʻene fanongo ki ai ʻa Tevita, naʻa ne fekau atu ʻa Soape, pea mo e kautau kotoa pē ko e kau tangata toʻa lahi.
Quod cum audisset David, misit Joab, et omnem exercitum virorum fortium:
9 Pea naʻe hū mai kituʻa ʻae fānau ʻa ʻAmoni mo nau fakanofo ʻae tau ʻi he ʻao ʻoe matapā ʻoe kolo: pea naʻe nofo kehe fakataha ʻae ngaahi tuʻi naʻe haʻu, ʻi he potu ngoue.
egressique filii Ammon, direxerunt aciem juxta portam civitatis; reges autem, qui ad auxilium ejus venerant, separatim in agro steterunt.
10 Pea ʻi heʻene sio ʻe Soape kuo fakanofo ʻae kautau ke tauʻi ia ʻi ʻao pea mei tuʻa, naʻa ne fili mai ʻae kau mālohi mei ʻIsileli, mo ne tuku ʻakinautolu ke tauʻi ʻae kakai Silia.
Igitur Joab, intelligens bellum ex adverso et post tergum contra se fieri, elegit viros fortissimos de universo Israël, et perrexit contra Syrum.
11 Pea naʻa ne tuku ʻa hono toe ʻoe kakai ki he nima ʻo hono tokoua ko ʻApisai, pea naʻa nau tali tau ʻakinautolu ki he fānau ʻa ʻAmoni.
Reliquam autem partem populi dedit sub manu Abisai fratris sui: et perrexerunt contra filios Ammon.
12 Pea naʻa ne pehē, “Kapau ʻe mālohi fau ʻae kakai Silia kiate au, te mou toki tokoni kiate au; pea kapau ʻe mālohi fau ʻae fānau ʻa ʻAmoni kiate koe, te u toki tokoni ʻeau kiate koe.
Dixitque: Si vicerit me Syrus, auxilio eris mihi: si autem superaverint te filii Ammon, ero tibi in præsidium.
13 Mou lototoʻa, pea ke tau fai ngalingali tangata mā ʻahotau kakai, pea koeʻuhi ko e ngaahi kolo ʻo hotau ʻOtua, pea ke fai ʻe Sihova ʻae meʻa ʻoku ne finangalo lelei ki ai.”
Confortare, et agamus viriliter pro populo nostro, et pro urbibus Dei nostri: Dominus autem, quod in conspectu suo bonum est, faciet.
14 Ko ia naʻe ʻunuʻunu atu ʻa Soape mo e kakai naʻe kau mo ia, ki he ʻao ʻoe kakai Silia ke fai ʻae tau; pea naʻa nau hola mei hono ʻao.
Perrexit ergo Joab et populus qui cum eo erat, contra Syrum ad prælium: et fugavit eos.
15 Pea ʻi he sio ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻAmoni kuo hola ʻae kakai Silia, naʻa nau hola foki ʻakinautolu mei he ʻao ʻo ʻApisai ko hono tokoua, mo ne hū atu ki he kolo. Hili ia naʻe haʻu ʻa Soape ki Selūsalema.
Porro filii Ammon videntes quod fugisset Syrus, ipsi quoque fugerunt Abisai fratrem ejus, et ingressi sunt civitatem: reversusque est etiam Joab in Jerusalem.
16 Pea ʻi he sio ʻe he kakai Silia kuo nau tuʻutāmaki ʻi he ʻao ʻo ʻIsileli, naʻa nau kouna atu ʻae kau tangata fekau, ke nau ʻomi ʻae kau Silia naʻe nofo ʻi he kau vai ʻe taha: pea naʻe tataki ʻakinautolu ʻe Sofaki ko e ʻeiki ki he kautau ʻo Hetatesa.
Videns autem Syrus quod cecidisset coram Israël, misit nuntios, et adduxit Syrum, qui erat trans fluvium: Sophach autem princeps militiæ Adarezer erat dux eorum.
17 Pea naʻe fakahā ia kia Tevita; pea naʻa ne tānaki fakataha ʻa ʻIsileli kātoa, mo ne Lakaatu ʻi he Soatani, mo ne hoko atu kiate kinautolu, pea ne teuteu ke fai ʻae tau kiate kinautolu. Pea pehē, hili ʻae teuteu ʻae tau ʻe Tevita ke fai ki he kakai Silia, naʻa nau fai mo ia ʻae tau.
Quod cum nuntiatum esset David, congregavit universum Israël, et transivit Jordanem, irruitque in eos et direxit ex adverso aciem, illis contra pugnantibus.
18 Ka naʻe hola ʻae kakai Silia mei he ʻao ʻo ʻIsileli; pea naʻe tāmateʻi ʻe Tevita ʻoe kakai Silia ʻae kau tangata naʻe heka saliote, ko e toko fitu afe, mo e kakai hāʻele ʻe toko fā mano, pea naʻa ne tāmateʻi ʻa Sofaki ko e ʻeiki naʻe pule ki he kautau.
Fugit autem Syrus Israël, et interfecit David de Syris septem millia curruum, et quadraginta millia peditum, et Sophach exercitus principem.
19 Pea ʻi he sio ʻe he kau tamaioʻeiki ʻa Hetatesa kuo nau tuʻutāmaki ʻi he ʻao ʻo ʻIsileli, naʻa nau alea ke nau melino mo Tevita, pea naʻa nau hoko ʻo tokalalo kiate ia: pea naʻe ʻikai toe loto ʻae kakai Silia ke tokoni ki he fānau ʻa ʻAmoni.
Videntes autem servi Adarezer se ab Israël esse superatos, transfugerunt ad David, et servierunt ei: noluitque ultra Syria auxilium præbere filiis Ammon.
