2 Pea tuʻu hake ʻa ʻIsimeʻeli ko e foha ʻo Natania, mo e kau tangata ʻe toko hongofulu naʻe ʻiate ia, pea nau taaʻi aki ʻae heletā ʻa Ketalia ko e foha ʻo ʻAhikami ko e foha ʻo Safani, pea tāmateʻi ia, ʻaia naʻe fakanofo ʻe he tuʻi ʻo Papilone ke pule ki he fonua.

3 Pea naʻe tāmateʻi foki ʻe ʻIsimeʻeli ʻae kau Siu kotoa pē naʻe ʻiate ia, ʻaia naʻe ia Ketalia, ʻi Misipa, pea mo e kau Kalitia naʻe ʻi ai, pea mo e kautau.

4 Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē ʻi hono ua ʻoe ʻaho ʻi he hili ʻae tāmateʻi ʻo Ketalia, ʻi he teʻeki ke ʻilo ia ʻe ha tokotaha,

And it was on the day second of killing Gedaliah and anyone not he knew.

5 Naʻe haʻu ʻae kau tangata mei Sikemi, pea mei Sailo, pea mei Samelia, ko e toko valungofulu kuo tele honau kava, pea kuo mahaehae honau kofu, pea foa ʻakinautolu, pea naʻe ʻi honau nima ʻae feilaulau mo e meʻa namu kakala, ke ʻomi ki he fale ʻo Sihova.

And they came men from Shechem from Shiloh and from Samaria eighty man shaven of beard and torn of clothes and having cut themselves and an offering and frankincense in hand their to bring [the] house of Yahweh.

6 Pea naʻe ʻalu atu ʻa ʻIsimeʻeli ko e foha ʻo Natania mei Misipa ke fakafetaulaki mo kinautolu, pea naʻe tangi maʻu pe ia ʻi heʻene ʻalu: pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē ʻi heʻene fetaulaki mo kinautolu naʻa ne pehē kiate kinautolu, “Mou omi kia Ketalia ko e foha ʻAhikami,”

And he went out Ishmael [the] son of Nethaniah to meet them from Mizpah going continually and weeping and it was when met them and he said to them come to Gedaliah [the] son of Ahikam.

7 Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē ʻi heʻenau haʻu ki loto kolo, naʻe tāmateʻi ʻakinautolu ʻo lī ki he luo, ʻe ʻIsimeʻeli ko e foha ʻo Natania, ko ia, mo e kau tangata naʻe ʻiate ia.

And it was when came they into [the] middle of the city and he slaughtered them Ishmael [the] son of Nethaniah into [the] middle of the cistern he and the men who [were] with him.

8 Ka naʻe ʻiate kinautolu ʻae kau tangata ʻe toko hongofulu, naʻe lea kia ʻIsimeʻeli, ʻo pehē, “ʻOua naʻa ke tāmateʻi ʻakimautolu he ʻoku ʻiate kimautolu ʻae ngaahi koloa kuo fakafufū ʻi he ngaahi ngoue, ko e uite, mo e paʻale, mo e lolo, pea mo e meʻa huʻamelie.” Ko ia naʻa ne tafoki, pea naʻe ʻikai tāmateʻi ʻakinautolu mo honau kāinga.

And ten men they were found among them and they said to Ishmael may not you kill us for there is [belonging] to us treasures in the field wheat and barley and oil and honey and he refrained and not he killed them in among relatives their.

9 Pea ko e luo, ʻaia naʻe lī ki ai ʻe ʻIsimeʻeli ʻae ʻangaʻanga ʻoe kau tangata, naʻa ne tāmateʻi fakataha mo Ketalia, ko ia pe naʻe ngaohi ʻe he tuʻi ko ʻAsa, ko ʻene manavahē kia Paʻasa ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli; pea ko ia, naʻe fakapito aki ia ʻae kakai kuo tāmateʻi, ʻe ʻIsimeʻeli ko e foha ʻo Natania.

11 Pea kuo fanongo ʻa Sohanani, ko e foha ʻo Kalia, pea mo e houʻeikitau kotoa pē naʻe ʻiate ia, ki he kovi kotoa pē kuo fai ʻe ʻIsimeʻeli ko e foha ʻo Natania,
