1 Meʻa Hokohoko 20
1 Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi heʻene hili ange ʻae taʻu ʻe taha, ʻi he faʻahitaʻu ʻaia ʻoku faʻa ʻalu atu ai ʻae ngaahi tuʻi [ke fai ʻae tau], naʻe tataki atu ʻe Soape ʻae mālohi ʻoe kautau, pea naʻa ne fakalala ʻae fonua ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻAmoni, pea naʻa ne hoko atu ʻo kāpui ʻa Lapa ʻaki ʻae tau. Ka naʻe nofo pe ʻa Tevita ʻi Selūsalema. Pea naʻe kapa ʻa Lapa ʻe Soape, mo ne fakaʻauha ia.
Factum est autem post anni circulum, eo tempore quo solent reges ad bella procedere, congregavit Joab exercitum, et robur militiæ, et vastavit terram filiorum Ammon: perrexitque et obsedit Rabba. Porro David manebat in Jerusalem, quando Joab percussit Rabba et destruxit eam.
2 Pea naʻe toʻo mai ʻe Tevita ʻae tatā fakatuʻi mei he ʻulu ʻo honau tuʻi, pea ko hono mamafa ko e taleniti koula ʻe taha, pea naʻe fonofono ki ai ʻae ngaahi maka mahuʻinga; pea naʻe ʻai ia ki he fofonga ʻo Tevita: pea naʻa ne fetuku foki mei he kolo ʻae koloa lahi ʻaupito.
Tulit autem David coronam Melchom de capite ejus, et invenit in ea auri pondo talentum, et pretiosissimas gemmas, fecitque sibi inde diadema: manubias quoque urbis plurimas tulit;
3 Pea naʻa ne ʻomi kituaʻā ʻae kakai naʻe nofo ʻi ai, mo ne kilisi ʻakinautolu ʻaki ʻae kili, pea mo e ngaahi meʻa keli ukamea, pea mo e ngaahi toki. Naʻe fai pehē ʻe Tevita ki he ngaahi kolo kotoa pē ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻAmoni, Pea naʻe foki mai ʻa Tevita pea mo e kakai kotoa pē ki Selūsalema.
populum autem, qui erat in ea, eduxit, et fecit super eos tribulas, et trahas, et ferrata carpenta transire, ita ut dissecarentur et contererentur. Sic fecit David cunctis urbibus filiorum Ammon: et reversus est cum omni populo suo in Jerusalem.
4 Pea hili ʻae meʻa ni naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, naʻe fai ʻae tau ʻi Kesa mo e kakai Filisitia; pea ko e kuonga ia naʻe tāmateʻi ʻa Sipei ʻe Sipikei ko e tangata Husa, ko e taha ʻi he fānau ʻoe tangata sino lahi ʻaupito: pea naʻe ikuna ʻakinautolu.
Post hæc initum est bellum in Gazer adversum Philisthæos, in quo percussit Sobochai Husathites, Saphai de genere Raphaim, et humiliavit eos.
5 Pea naʻe toe fai ʻae tau mo e kakai Filisitia: pea naʻe tāmateʻi ʻe Elihanani ko e foha ʻo Saele ʻo Laami ko e tehina ʻo Kolaia ko e tangata Kati, ʻaia naʻe tatau hono foʻi tao mo e ʻakau lalanga ʻoe tangata lalanga tupenu.
Aliud quoque bellum gestum est adversus Philisthæos, in quo percussit Adeodatus filius Saltus Bethlehemites fratrem Goliath Gethæi, cujus hastæ lignum erat quasi liciatorium texentium.
6 Pea naʻe toe fai foki ʻae tau ʻi Kati, pea naʻe ʻi ai ha tangata fuʻu lahi ʻaupito, ʻaia naʻe uofulu ma fā ʻa hono kupuʻi nima mo hono kupuʻi vaʻe, ko e taki ono ʻi he nima, mo e taki ono ʻi he vaʻe: pea ko e foha foki ia ʻoe tangata sino lahi ʻaupito.
Sed et aliud bellum accidit in Geth, in quo fuit homo longissimus, senos habens digitos, id est, simul viginti quatuor: qui et ipse de Rapha fuerat stirpe generatus.
7 Ka ʻi heʻene polepole tau ki ʻIsileli naʻe tāmateʻi ia ʻe Sonatane ko e foha ʻo Simia ko e tokoua ʻo Tevita.
Hic blasphemavit Israël: et percussit eum Jonathan filius Samaa fratris David.
8 Naʻe fanauʻi ʻakinautolu ni ki he fuʻu tangata lahi ʻaupito ʻi Kati; pea naʻa nau tō ʻo mate ʻi he nima ʻo Tevita pea ʻi he nima ʻo ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki.
Hi sunt filii Rapha in Geth, qui ceciderunt in manu David et servorum ejus.
