< 2 Samuela 23 >
1 Pea ko eni, ko e ngaahi lea fakamuimui eni ʻa Tevita. Naʻe pehē ʻe Tevita ko e foha ʻo Sese, pea naʻe lea ʻo pehē ʻe he tangata naʻe hiki hake ke māʻolunga, ko ia naʻe pani ʻe he ʻOtua ʻo Sēkope, pea pehē ʻe ia naʻe fasi mālie ʻi ʻIsileli,
2 Naʻe folofola ʻiate au ʻae Laumālie ʻo Sihova, pea ko ʻene folofola naʻe ʻi hoku ʻelelo.
3 Naʻe pehē ʻe he ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli, “Naʻe folofola mai kiate au ʻae Makatuʻu ʻa ʻIsileli, Ke ke pule koe ki he kakai ʻi he angatonu, ʻo pule ʻi he manavahē ki he ʻOtua.
4 Ke tatau ia mo e maama ʻoe pongipongi, ʻoka hopo hake ʻae laʻā, ʻi he pongipongi ʻoku ʻikai ai ha ngaahi ʻao; pea hangē ko e mohuku maʻuiʻui ʻoku [tupu ]mei he kelekele ʻaia ʻoku ngingila lelei ʻoka ʻosi ʻae tō ʻae ʻuha.”
5 Neongo ʻoku ʻikai pehē ʻa hoku fale ki he ʻOtua, ka kuo ne fai mo au ha fuakava taʻengata, kuo tuʻutuʻuni lelei ʻi he meʻa kotoa pē mo maʻu: pea ko ia kotoa pē te u moʻui ai, mo ia kotoa pē ʻoku ou holi ki ai, ʻikai te ne ngaohi ia ke tupu?
6 Ka ʻe tatau ʻaia kotoa pē ʻoku ʻoe angakovi mo e talatalaʻi ʻakau ʻoku tekeʻi atu, koeʻuhi ʻoku ʻikai faʻa puke ʻaki ia ʻae nima:
7 He ko e tangata ʻe ala ki ai ʻoku lelei ke ne mahafu ʻaki ʻae ukamea mo e kau ʻoe tao; pea ʻe tutu ʻaki ʻae afi ke ʻauha mālie kinautolu ʻi he potu[pe ko ia].
8 Ko e hingoa eni ʻoe kau tangata mālohi ʻaia naʻe ʻia Tevita: ko Sosepiposipati mei Takimoni, ko e tuʻukimuʻa ʻi he ʻeiki ʻe “Toko Tolu;” ko ia foki ko ʻAtino ko e Hasinate: naʻa ne tauʻi ʻae toko valungeau ʻaia naʻa ne tāmateʻi ʻi he kuonga pe taha.
9 Pea naʻe hoko mo ia ʻa ʻEliesa ko e foha ʻo Toto ko e tangata ʻAhoi, ko e taha ʻi he tuʻunga tangata ʻe toko tolu naʻe ʻia Tevita, ʻi he kuonga naʻa nau luki ki he kakai Filisitia naʻe tānaki fakataha ki he tau, ka kuo ʻalu mei ai ʻae kakai ʻIsileli:
10 Naʻa ne tuʻu hake, ʻo ne taaʻi ʻae kau Filisitia, pea naʻe fai ai pe ke vaivai hono nima, pea naʻe piki maʻu hono nima ki he heletā; pea naʻe fai ʻe Sihova ʻi he ʻaho ko ia ʻae ikuna fakamanavahē; pea naʻe muimui kiate ia ʻae kakai ke vete pe ʻae koloa.
11 Pea naʻe hoko mo ia ʻa Sama ko e foha ʻo ʻAkii ko e tangata Halali. Pea naʻe tānaki fakataha ʻae kau Filisitia ke papani, ki he potu ngoue naʻe fonu ʻi he piini: pea naʻe feholaki ʻae kakai mei he ʻao ʻoe kau Filisitia.
12 Ka naʻe tuʻu pe ia ʻi he loto ngoue, ʻo ne maluʻi ia, mo ne tāmateʻi ʻae kau Filisitia: pea naʻe fai ʻe Sihova ʻae ikuna lahi.
13 Pea naʻe ʻalu hifo ʻae ʻeiki ʻe toko tolu naʻe pule ki he “Toko Tolungofulu” naʻe tuʻukimuʻa, ʻonau hoko mai kia Tevita ʻi he lolotonga ʻae ututaʻu, ki he ʻana ʻi ʻAtulami: pea naʻe nofo ʻae kautau ʻoe kakai Filisitia ʻi he teleʻa ʻo Lefeimi.
14 Pea naʻe nofo ʻa Tevita ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ko ia ʻi he kolo mālohi, pea naʻe nofo ʻae tau ʻae kakai Filisitia ʻi he kuonga ko ia ʻi Petelihema.
15 Pea naʻe holi ʻa Tevita, ʻo ne pehē, “Taumaiā ke ʻomi ʻe ha tokotaha haʻaku vai ke u inu mei he vaikeli ʻo Petelihema, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he veʻematapā!”
16 Pea naʻe ʻoho atu ʻae kau tangata mālohi ʻe Toko Tolu ko ia, ʻo ʻasi ʻi he matatau ʻoe kau Filisitia, ke utu hake ʻae vai mei he vaikeli ʻi Petelihema, ʻaia naʻe ʻi he veʻe matanikolo, pea naʻa nau toʻo ia, ʻo ʻomi kia Tevita: ka neongo ia naʻe ʻikai te ne inu mei ai, ka naʻa ne lilingi atu ia ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova.
17 Pea naʻa ne pehē, “Ke mamaʻo ia ʻiate au, ʻE Sihova, ke u fai ʻae meʻa ni; ʻikai ko e toto eni ʻoe kau tangata naʻe ʻalu kae tuʻutāmaki ʻenau moʻui?” Ko ia naʻe ʻikai ai te ne inu mei ai. Ko e ngaahi meʻa eni naʻe fai ʻe he kau tangata mālohi ʻe toko tolu ko ia.
18 Pea ko ʻApisai, ko e tokoua ʻo Soape, ko e tama ʻa Seluia, naʻe ʻeiki hake ia ʻi he Toko Tolu. Pea naʻa ne apoapo ʻa ʻene tao ke tauʻi ʻae toko tolungeau, pea naʻa ne tāmateʻi kinautolu, pea naʻe ongoongo hake ʻa hono hingoa ʻi he Toko Tolu.
19 ʻIkai naʻe ongoongoa lahi hake ia ʻi he Toko Tolu? Ko ia naʻa ne ʻeiki kiate kinautolu: ka naʻe ʻikai tatau ia mo e ʻuluaki Toko Tolu.
20 Pea ko Penaia, ko e foha ʻo Sehoiata, ko e foha ʻoe tangata toʻa mei Kapisili, ʻaia naʻe fai ʻae ngaahi meʻa lahi, naʻa ne tāmateʻi ʻe ia ʻae ongo tangata Moape naʻe anga fakalaione: naʻa ne ʻalu hifo foki ʻo ne tāmateʻi ha laione ʻi he takele ʻo ha luo lolotonga ʻae faʻahitaʻu ʻoe ʻuha hinehina:
21 Pea naʻa ne tāmateʻi ha tangata ʻIsipite, ko e tangata toulekeleka: pea naʻe toʻo ʻe he tangata ʻIsipite ha tao ʻi hono nima: ka naʻa ne ʻalu atu kiate ia mo e tokotoko pe, pea ne hamusi ʻae tao mei he nima ʻoe tangata ʻIsipite, pea ne tāmateʻi ia ʻaki ʻa ʻene tao ʻaʻana.
22 Ko e ngaahi meʻa eni naʻe fai ʻe Penaia ko e foha ʻo Sehoiata, pea naʻe lau hono hingoa ki he Toko Tolu naʻe ongoongoa.
23 Naʻe ongoongo lahi hake ia ʻi he Toko Tolungofulu, ka naʻe ʻikai tatau ia mo e ʻuluaki Toko Tolu. Pea naʻe fakanofo ia ʻe Tevita ke tuʻukimuʻa ʻi heʻene kau mātuʻa alea.
24 Pea ko ʻAsaeli ko e tehina ʻo Soape ko e tokotaha ia ʻi he toko tolungofulu; ko Elihanani ko e foha ʻo Toto mei Petelihema,
25 Ko Sama ko e tangata Heloti, mo Elika ko e tangata Heloti,
