1 Samuela 16
1 Pea naʻe folofola ʻe Sihova kia Samuela, “ʻE tuku ʻafē ʻa hoʻo tēngihia ʻa Saula; he kuo u liʻaki ia ke ʻoua naʻa pule ia ki ʻIsileli? fakafonu haʻo nifoʻi manu ʻi he lolo, pea ke ʻalu, te u fekau koe kia Sese ko e tangata Petelihema: he kuo u teuteu ha tuʻi mei hono ngaahi foha.
dixitque Dominus ad Samuhel usquequo tu luges Saul cum ego proiecerim eum ne regnet super Israhel imple cornu tuum oleo et veni ut mittam te ad Isai Bethleemitem providi enim in filiis eius mihi regem
2 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Samuela, “ʻE fēfē ʻeku faʻa ʻalu? Kapau ʻe fanongo ki ai ʻa Saula te ne tāmateʻi au.” Pea pehē ʻe Sihova kiate ia, “ʻAve ha pulu fefine mo koe, pea ke pehē, kuo u haʻu ke feilaulau kia Sihova.
et ait Samuhel quomodo vadam audiet enim Saul et interficiet me et ait Dominus vitulum de armento tolles in manu tua et dices ad immolandum Domino veni
3 Pea ke ui ʻa Sese ki he feilaulau, pea te u fakahā kiate koe ʻaia te ke fai: pea ke pani maʻaku ʻaia te u lau kiate koe.”
et vocabis Isai ad victimam et ego ostendam tibi quid facias et ungues quemcumque monstravero tibi
4 Pea naʻe fai ʻe Samuela ʻaia naʻe folofola ki ai ʻa Sihova. Pea naʻe tetetete ʻae kau mātuʻa ʻoe kolo ʻi heʻene hoko ki ai, ʻonau pehē, “ʻOku ke haʻu melino pe?”
fecit ergo Samuhel sicut locutus est ei Dominus venitque in Bethleem et admirati sunt seniores civitatis occurrentes ei dixeruntque pacificus ingressus tuus
5 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “ʻOku ou haʻu melino pē: kuo u haʻu ke fai ʻae feilaulau kia Sihova: fakatapui ʻakimoutolu, pea mou haʻu mo au ki he feilaulau.” Pea naʻa ne fakatapui ʻa Sese mo hono ngaahi foha, ʻo ne ui ʻakinautolu ki he feilaulau.
et ait pacificus ad immolandum Domino veni sanctificamini et venite mecum ut immolem sanctificavit ergo Isai et filios eius et vocavit eos ad sacrificium
6 Pea ʻi heʻenau hoko mai, naʻe sio ia kia Iliape, pea pehē ʻe ia, “Ta ʻoku ʻi he ʻao ni ʻo Sihova ʻaia kuo ne pani.”
cumque ingressi essent vidit Heliab et ait num coram Domino est christus eius
7 Ka naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova kia Samuela, “ʻOua naʻa ke mamata ki hono mata, pea ki he māʻolunga ʻo hono sino; he kuo u liʻaki ia: he ʻoku ʻikai mamata ʻa Sihova ʻo hangē ko e mamata ʻae tangata; he ʻoku sio ʻae tangata ki he anga ʻoku hā ʻituʻa, ka ʻoku ʻafioʻi ʻe Sihova ʻae loto.”
et dixit Dominus ad Samuhel ne respicias vultum eius neque altitudinem staturae eius quoniam abieci eum nec iuxta intuitum hominis iudico homo enim videt ea quae parent Dominus autem intuetur cor
8 Hili ia naʻe ui ʻe Sese ke haʻu ʻa ʻApinatapi, ke ne ʻalu ange ʻi he ʻao ʻo Samuela. Pea naʻa ne pehē, ʻOku ʻikai fili ia foki ʻe Sihova.
et vocavit Isai Abinadab et adduxit eum coram Samuhel qui dixit nec hunc elegit Dominus
9 Pea naʻe fekau ʻe Sese ke ʻalu ange ʻa Sama. Pea pehē ʻe ia, “ʻOku ʻikai fili foki ia ʻe Sihova.”
adduxit autem Isai Samma de quo ait etiam hunc non elegit Dominus
10 Pea naʻe toe fekau ʻe Sese ke ʻalu ange hono foha ʻe toko fitu ʻi he ʻao ʻo Samuela. Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Samuela kia Sese, “ʻOku ʻikai fili ʻe Sihova ʻakinautolu.”
adduxit itaque Isai septem filios suos coram Samuhel et ait Samuhel ad Isai non elegit Dominus ex istis
11 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Samuela kia Sese, “ʻOku ʻi heni hoʻo fānau kotoa pē?” Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “ʻOku kei toe ʻae kimui, pea vakai, ʻoku ne tauhi ʻae fanga sipi.” Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Samuela kia Sese, “Fekau ke ʻomi ia: koeʻuhi ʻe ʻikai te tau nofo ki lalo kaeʻoua ke haʻu ia.”
dixitque Samuhel ad Isai numquid iam conpleti sunt filii qui respondit adhuc reliquus est parvulus et pascit oves et ait Samuhel ad Isai mitte et adduc eum nec enim discumbemus priusquam ille huc venerit
12 Pea naʻe fekau ʻe ia, ke ʻomi ia ki loto. Pea naʻe totototo mo e toulekeleka hono mata, ʻo matamatalelei ʻene hā mai. Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova, “Tuʻu hake, ʻo pani ia; he ko eni ia.”
misit ergo et adduxit eum erat autem rufus et pulcher aspectu decoraque facie et ait Dominus surge ungue eum ipse est enim
13 Pea naʻe toki toʻo ʻe Samuela ʻae nifoʻi manu naʻe ʻi ai ʻae lolo, ʻo ne pani ia ʻi he ʻao ʻo hono ngaahi kāinga; pea naʻe hoko ʻae Laumālie ʻo Sihova kia Tevita talu mei he ʻaho ko ia. Pea naʻe tuʻu ʻa Samuela ʻo ʻalu ki Lama.
tulit igitur Samuhel cornu olei et unxit eum in medio fratrum eius et directus est spiritus Domini in David a die illa et in reliquum surgensque Samuhel abiit in Ramatha
14 Ka naʻe mahuʻi ʻae Laumālie ʻo Sihova meia Saula, pea naʻe fakamamahiʻi ia ʻe he laumālie kovi meia Sihova.
spiritus autem Domini recessit a Saul et exagitabat eum spiritus nequam a Domino
15 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he kau tamaioʻeiki ʻa Saula kiate ia, “Ko eni, vakai, ko e laumālie kovi mei he ʻOtua ʻoku ne fakamamahiʻi koe.
dixeruntque servi Saul ad eum ecce spiritus Dei malus exagitat te
16 Ke fekau mai ni ʻe homau ʻeiki ki hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki, ʻoku ʻi ho ʻao, ke kumi ha tangata ʻoku poto ʻi he tā ʻoe haʻape: pea ʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻoka ʻiate koe ʻae laumālie kovi mei he ʻOtua, pea ʻe tā ʻe ia ʻaki hono nima, pea te ke moʻui ai.”
iubeat dominus noster et servi tui qui coram te sunt quaerant hominem scientem psallere cithara ut quando arripuerit te spiritus Dei malus psallat manu sua et levius feras
17 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Saula ki heʻene kau tamaioʻeiki, “Ko eni, mou kumi leva ni ha tangata ʻoku poto ʻi he tā meʻa faiva pea ʻomi ia kiate au.”
et ait Saul ad servos suos providete mihi aliquem bene psallentem et adducite eum ad me
18 Pea naʻe lea ai ʻae tamaioʻeiki ʻe tokotaha, ʻo pehē, “Vakai, naʻaku mamata ki he foha ʻo Sese ko e tangata Petelihema, ʻaia ʻoku poto ʻi he tā, pea ko e tangata toʻa ʻaupito ia, mo e tangata tau, pea ʻoku anga fakapotopoto, pea ko e tangata matamatalelei, pea ʻoku ʻiate ia ʻa Sihova.”
et respondens unus de pueris ait ecce vidi filium Isai Bethleemitem scientem psallere et fortissimum robore et virum bellicosum et prudentem in verbis et virum pulchrum et Dominus est cum eo
19 Ko ia naʻe fekau ai ʻe Saula ʻae kau talafekau kia Sese, ʻo pehē, “Tuku mai ho foha ko Tevita, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he fanga sipi, ke haʻu kiate au.”
misit ergo Saul nuntios ad Isai dicens mitte ad me David filium tuum qui est in pascuis
20 Pea naʻe ʻave ʻe Sese ʻae ʻasi naʻe tauloto mā, mo e hina uaine, mo e ʻuhikiʻi sipi, ʻo ne ʻatu ia kia Saula ʻi he nima ʻo hono foha ko Tevita.
tulitque Isai asinum plenum panibus et lagoenam vini et hedum de capris unum et misit per manum David filii sui Saul
21 Pea naʻe hoko ange ʻa Tevita kia Saula, ʻo tuʻu ʻi hono ʻao: pea naʻe ʻofa lahi ia kiate ia; pea hoko ia ko hono hoa tau.
et venit David ad Saul et stetit coram eo at ille dilexit eum nimis et factus est eius armiger
22 Pea naʻe fekau ʻe Saula kia Sese, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku ou kole kiate koe tuku mai ʻa Tevita ke nofo ia ʻi hoku ʻao; he ʻoku ou leleiʻia ai au.”
misitque Saul ad Isai dicens stet David in conspectu meo invenit enim gratiam in oculis meis
23 Pea ʻi he hoko kia Saula ʻae laumālie mei he ʻOtua, pea pehē, naʻe toʻo ʻe Tevita ʻae haʻape ʻo ne tā ʻaki ia hono nima: pea naʻe fakafiemālie ai ʻa Saula, pea moʻui ai, pea naʻe ʻalu ʻiate ia ʻae laumālie kovi.
igitur quandocumque spiritus Dei arripiebat Saul tollebat David citharam et percutiebat manu sua et refocilabatur Saul et levius habebat recedebat enim ab eo spiritus malus
