1 Samuela 5
1 Pea naʻe ʻave ʻe he kakai Filisitia ʻae puha tapu ʻoe ʻOtua, ʻo ʻomi ia mei Epenisa ki ʻAsitoti.
Philisthiim autem tulerunt arcam Dei, et asportaverunt eam a lapide Adjutorii in Azotum.
2 ʻI he maʻu ʻe he kau Filisitia ʻae puha tapu ʻoe ʻOtua, naʻa nau ʻomi ia ki he fale ʻo Takoni, ʻonau fokotuʻu ia ofi kia Takoni.
Tuleruntque Philisthiim arcam Dei, et intulerunt eam in templum Dagon, et statuerunt eam juxta Dagon.
3 Pea ʻi he tuʻu hengihengi hake ʻi he ʻapongipongi ʻae kakai ʻo ʻAsitoti, vakai, kuo tō fakafoʻohifo ʻa Takoni ki hono mata ki he kelekele ʻi he ʻao ʻoe puha tapu ʻo Sihova. Pea naʻa nau hiki ʻa Takoni ʻo toe fokotuʻu ia ki hono potu.
Cumque surrexissent diluculo Azotii altera die, ecce Dagon jacebat pronus in terra ante arcam Domini: et tulerunt Dagon, et restituerunt eum in locum suum.
4 Pea ʻi heʻenau tuʻu hengihengi hake ʻi he pongipongi ʻe taha, vakai, kuo tuʻulu ʻa Takoni mo hono mata ki he kelekele he ʻao ʻoe puha tapu ʻo Sihova; pea kuo motuua ʻae ʻulu ʻo Takoni, mo hono fasi ʻae nima fakatouʻosi pē ʻi he mata fale: naʻe toe pe kia Takoni ʻa hono foʻi sino pe.
Rursumque mane die altera consurgentes, invenerunt Dagon jacentem super faciem suam in terra coram arca Domini: caput autem Dagon, et duæ palmæ manuum ejus abscissæ erant super limen:
5 Ko ia ʻoku ʻikai lakalakavale ʻae kau taulaʻeiki ʻo Takoni, pe ha tokotaha ʻoku haʻu ki he fale ʻo Takoni, ki he matafale ʻo Takoni ʻi ʻAsitoti ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ni.
porro Dagon solus truncus remanserat in loco suo. Propter hanc causam non calcant sacerdotes Dagon, et omnes qui ingrediuntur templum ejus, super limen Dagon in Azoto, usque in hodiernum diem.
6 Ka naʻe mamafa ʻae nima ʻo Sihova ki he kakai ʻo ʻAsitoti, ʻo ne fakaʻauha ʻakinautolu, ʻo teʻia ʻakinautolu ʻaki ʻae mahaki kovi, ʻio, ʻa ʻAsitoti mo hono ngaahi potu.
Aggravata est autem manus Domini super Azotios, et demolitus est eos: et percussit in secretiori parte natium Azotum, et fines ejus. Et ebullierunt villæ et agri in medio regionis illius, et nati sunt mures et facta est confusio mortis magnæ in civitate.
7 Pea ʻi he mamata ʻae kau tangata ʻo ʻAsitoti ʻoku pehē, naʻa nau lea, “ʻE ʻikai tuku ʻae puha tapu ʻoe ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli: he ʻoku tō mamahi hono nima kiate kitautolu, pea kia Takoni ko hotau ʻotua.”
Videntes autem viri Azotii hujuscemodi plagam, dixerunt: Non maneat arca Dei Israël apud nos: quoniam dura est manus ejus super nos, et super Dagon deum nostrum.
8 Ko ia naʻa nau fekau ʻo tānaki kiate kinautolu ʻae houʻeiki kotoa pē ʻoe kau Filisitia, ʻonau pehē, “Ko e hā te tau fai ki he puha tapu ʻoe ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli?” Pea naʻa nau pehē, “Ke haʻamo fano ʻae puha tapu ʻoe ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli ʻo ʻave ki Kati.” Pea naʻa nau haʻamo fano mei ai ʻae puha tapu ʻoe ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli.
Et mittentes congregaverunt omnes satrapas Philisthinorum ad se, et dixerunt: Quid faciemus de arca Dei Israël? Responderuntque Gethæi: Circumducatur arca Dei Israël. Et circumduxerunt arcam Dei Israël.
9 Pea naʻe pehē, hili ʻenau haʻamo fano ia, naʻe hoko mālohi ʻae nima ʻo Sihova ki he kolo ʻi he fakaʻauha lahi: pea ne taaʻi ʻae kau tangata ʻoe kolo, ʻae siʻi mo e lahi, pea naʻa nau mahaki kovi ʻi honau potu fufū.
Illis autem circumducentibus eam, fiebat manus Domini per singulas civitates interfectionis magnæ nimis: et percutiebat viros uniuscujusque urbis, a parvo usque ad majorem, et computrescebant prominentes extales eorum. Inieruntque Gethæi consilium, et fecerunt sibi sedes pelliceas.
10 Ko ia naʻa nau ʻave ai ʻae puha tapu ʻoe ʻOtua ki Ekiloni. Pea ʻi he hoko ʻae puha tapu ʻoe ʻOtua ki Ekiloni, naʻe tangi ʻae kakai Ekiloni, ʻo pehē, “Kuo nau ʻomi ʻae puha tapu ʻoe ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli kiate kitautolu, ke tāmateʻi kitautolu mo hotau kakai.”
Miserunt ergo arcam Dei in Accaron. Cumque venisset arca Dei in Accaron, exclamaverunt Accaronitæ, dicentes: Adduxerunt ad nos arcam Dei Israël ut interficiat nos et populum nostrum.
11 Ko ia naʻa nau fekau ʻo tānaki ʻae houʻeiki kotoa pē ʻoe kakai Filisitia, ʻonau pehē, “Fekau ke ʻave ʻae puha tapu ʻoe ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli, pea tuku ke ʻalu ia ki hono potu, telia naʻa ne tāmateʻi kitautolu mo hotau kakai:” he naʻe hoko ʻae fakaʻauha lahi ki he potu kotoa pē ʻoe kolo; naʻe mamafa ʻaupito ʻae nima ʻoe ʻOtua ʻi ai.
Miserunt itaque et congregaverunt omnes satrapas Philisthinorum: qui dixerunt: Dimittite arcam Dei Israël, et revertatur in locum suum, et non interficiat nos cum populo nostro.
12 Pea ko e kau tangata naʻe ʻikai mate naʻe taaʻi ʻakinautolu ʻaki ʻae mahaki kovi: pea naʻe ʻalu hake ki langi ʻae tangi ʻae kolo.
Fiebat enim pavor mortis in singulis urbibus, et gravissima valde manus Dei. Viri quoque qui mortui non fuerant, percutiebantur in secretiori parte natium: et ascendebat ululatus uniuscujusque civitatis in cælum.
