ʼUluaki Samuele 14:1-52
14 ʼI te tahi ʼaho, neʼe ui e Sonatane,+ te foha ʼo Saulo ki te tagata ʼae neʼe ina toʼo ʼana mahafu: “Haʼu pea ke ta olo ʼo kaku ki te faʼahi ʼae ʼe tutuʼu ai te kau solia Filisitini.” Kae neʼe mole ina fakaha age ki tana tamai.
2 Neʼe nofo ia Saulo ʼi te ʼu tafaʼaki ʼo Kipease+ ʼi te lalo fuʼu kelenate ʼi Mikoloni, pea neʼe fakatahi mo ia te teitei toko 600 tagata.+
3 (Pea neʼe tui te efote+ e Akisa, te foha ʼo Ahitupe,+ te tehina ʼo Ikapote,+ te foha ʼo Fineasi,+ te foha ʼo Eli,+ te pelepitelo ʼa Sehova ʼi Silo.+) Pea neʼe mole iloʼi e te hahaʼi ia te kua alu ʼa Sonatane.
4 Pea ʼi te vaha ʼo te ʼu ala ʼae neʼe faiga ke fakalaka ai ia Sonatane ke kaku ki te kau solia Filisitini, neʼe ʼi ai he fuʼu maka neʼe hage ko he foʼi nifo ʼi te tahi faʼahi, pea mo he tahi fuʼu maka neʼe hage ko he foʼi nifo ʼi te tahi age faʼahi. Neʼe higoa te tahi ko Poteseti pea neʼe higoa te tahi ko Sene.
5 ʼI te ʼu fuʼu maka ʼaia, neʼe tuʼu te tahi ohage ko he foʼi pou ʼi te potu noleto, ʼo haga ki Mikemase, pea neʼe tuʼu te tahi ʼi te potu saute, ʼo haga ki Kepa.+
6 Koia neʼe ui e Sonatane ki tana tagata toʼo mahafu: “Haʼu pea ke ta olo ʼo kaku ki te kau solia heʼe silikosisio ʼaia.*+ ʼE lagi fai anai e Sehova he meʼa maʼa taua, he ʼe mole he meʼa ʼe feala ke ina taʼofi ia Sehova moʼo haofaki te hahaʼi ʼaki he tokolahi peʼe ko he tokosiʼi.”+
7 Pea neʼe ui age e tana tagata toʼo mahafu: “Fai te meʼa ʼae ʼe ke loto ki ai. Alu ki te faʼahi ʼae ʼe ke loto ki ai, pea ʼe au muliʼi pe anai koe.”
8 Pea neʼe ui e Sonatane: “ ʼE ta olo anai ʼo kaku ki te ʼu tagata ʼaia pea ʼe ta ha anai kia natou.
9 Kapau ʼe natou ui mai: ‘Kolua nonofo ʼi hena ʼo kaku ki tamatou olo atu!’ pea ʼe ta nonofo maʼu anai pea ʼe mole ta hake anai kia natou.
10 Kae kapau ʼe natou ui: ‘Kolua ʼomai ʼo tauʼi matou!’ ʼe ta olo anai, he ʼe tuku mai anai e Sehova ia natou ki ʼotā nima. ʼE ko te fakailoga ʼaia maʼa taua.”+
11 Neʼe nā ha leva ki te kau solia Filisitini. Neʼe ui e te kau Filisitini: “Koʼeni kua ʼomai ki tuʼa te kau Hepeleo mai te ʼu luo ʼae neʼe natou fenonoʼi ai.”+
12 Pea neʼe ui e te kau solia kia Sonatane mo tana tagata toʼo mahafu: “Kolua hahake mai, ʼe heʼeki kolua iloʼi koa la koulua ia matou!”+ ʼI te moʼi temi pe ʼaia, neʼe ui e Sonatane ki tana tagata toʼo mahafu: “Mulimuli mai ia au, he ʼe tuku anai e Sehova ia natou ki te ʼu nima ʼo Iselaele.”+
13 Neʼe kake leva ia Sonatane ʼi te mata mato pea neʼe mulimuli mai pe ia ia tana tagata toʼo mahafu. Neʼe tauʼi e Sonatane te kau Filisitini, pea neʼe haga tana tagata toʼo mahafu ʼo matehi natou.
14 ʼI te ʼuluaki ʼohofi ʼaia neʼe fai e Sonatane mo tana tagata toʼo mahafu, neʼe nā matehi ai te ʼu tagata ʼe teitei toko 20 ʼi he vaha kele veliveli pe.*
15 Pea neʼe matataku te nofoʼaga solia mo te kau solia ʼae neʼe tutuʼu ʼi te mata mato, maʼia mo te ʼu kutuga solia ʼae neʼe olo ʼo tauʼi ia Iselaele.+ Neʼe kamata galulu te kele pea neʼe natou matataku ʼuhi ko te ʼAtua.
16 Neʼe sisio te ʼu tagata leʼo ʼa Saulo ʼae ʼi Kipease+ ʼo Pesamino ki te mafola ʼo te maveuveu ʼi te ʼu potu kehekehe.+
17 Neʼe ui leva e Saulo ki te hahaʼi ʼae neʼe nonofo mo ia: “Fakalelei, kae kotou lau mo vakaʼi pe ko ai ʼae ʼe puli.” Koia, neʼe natou lau pea neʼe natou tokagaʼi neʼe pupuli ia Sonatane pea mo tana tagata toʼo mahafu.
18 Neʼe ui e Saulo kia Akisa:+ “Fakaovi mai te Aleka ʼo te ʼAtua moʼoni!” (Koteʼuhi ʼi te temi ʼaia,* neʼe nofo te Aleka ʼo te ʼAtua moʼoni mo te kau Iselaele.)
19 Pea lolotoga te palalau ʼa Saulo ki te pelepitelo, neʼe toe lahi age te maveuveu ʼi te nofoʼaga ʼo te kau Filisitini. Neʼe ui leva e Saulo ki te pelepitelo: “Tuku muʼa te meʼa ʼaena ʼe ke fai.”*
20 Koia, neʼe fakatahitahi ai ia Saulo mo te hahaʼi fuli ʼae neʼe nonofo mo ia, ʼo natou olo ki te tau, kae neʼe natou maʼu atu te kau Filisitini ʼe natou fematematehiʼaki ʼaki pe ʼanatou heleta, pea neʼe lahi ʼaupito te maveuveu.
21 Pea ko te kau Hepeleo, ʼae ʼi muʼa atu neʼe fakatahi mo te kau Filisitini pea neʼe ʼomai ki te nofoʼaga, neʼe natou kau leva mo Iselaele ʼae neʼe takitaki e Saulo mo Sonatane.
22 Pea ko te kau tagata fuli ʼo Iselaele ʼae neʼe fenonoʼi+ ʼi te ʼu potu moʼugaʼia ʼo Efalaimi, neʼe natou logo ki te feholaki ʼa te kau Filisitini, pea neʼe natou toe kau mo natou ki te tuli ʼo te kau Filisitini ʼi te tau.
23 Koia neʼe haofaki e Sehova ia Iselaele ʼi te ʼaho ʼaia,+ pea neʼe kaku te tau ki Pete-aveni.+
24 Kae neʼe kua gaʼegagaʼe leva te kau tagata ʼo Iselaele ʼi te ʼaho ʼaia, he neʼe fakamaʼua e Saulo ki te hahaʼi ke natou fakalogo ki te fakapapau ʼaeni: “Malaʼia te tagata ʼae ʼe kai anai ki he meʼa kai* ʼi muʼa ʼo te afiafi pea ʼi muʼa ʼo taku fakahoko taku lagavaka ki ʼoku fili!” Koia neʼe mole kai ai he tahi.+
25 Neʼe hu leva te hahaʼi* katoa ki te vao matuʼa, pea neʼe ʼi ai he meli ʼi te kele.
26 ʼI te hu ʼa te hahaʼi ki te vao matuʼa, neʼe natou sisio ki te hali ʼo te meli, kae neʼe mole kai ki ai he tahi, he neʼe natou matataku ʼuhi ko te fakapapau.
27 Kae neʼe mole logo ia Sonatane ki te fakapapau ʼae neʼe fakamaʼua e tana tamai ke fakalogo ki ai te hahaʼi.+ Koia neʼe ina toʼo ai te ʼakau ʼae neʼe ʼi tona nima ʼo ʼai te muʼamuʼaʼi ʼakau ki te meli. Pea ʼi te temi ʼae neʼe ina ʼahiʼahi ai te moʼi meli, neʼe toe malohi ai.*
28 Neʼe ui age e he tahi ʼi te hahaʼi: “Neʼe fakamaʼua e tau tamai ki te hahaʼi ke natou fakalogo ki te fakapapau ʼaeni: ‘Malaʼia te tagata ʼae ʼe kai anai ki he meʼa kai ʼi te ʼaho nei!’+ Ko te tupuʼaga la ʼaia ʼo te kua gaʼegagaʼe ʼaupito ʼa te hahaʼi.”
29 Kae neʼe ui e Sonatane: “Neʼe lahi ʼaupito te mamahi ʼae neʼe fakatupu e taku tamai ʼi te fenua. Kotou tokagaʼi taku kua toe malohi ʼi taku ʼahiʼahi te moʼi meli ʼaeni.
30 ʼE mahino ia, ka na neʼe kakai faʼitaliha la te hahaʼi+ ʼi te ʼaho nei ki te ʼu koloa ʼae neʼe natou maʼu mai ʼonatou fili, ʼe fua lelei age anai kia natou! Ka na ʼaua la neʼe toe kaugamalie age te kau Filisitini ʼae neʼe natou tamateʼi.”
31 ʼI te ʼaho ʼaia, neʼe hoko atu pe tanatou matehi te kau Filisitini mai Mikemase ki Asaloni,+ pea neʼe kua gaʼegagaʼe ʼaupito te hahaʼi.
32 Koia neʼe ʼoho ai te hahaʼi mo he lotomanumanū ki te ʼu koloa ʼae neʼe natou maʼu, pea neʼe natou toʼo te ʼu ovi, mo te ʼu pipi mo te ʼu ʼuhiʼi pipi ʼo natou tamateʼi ʼi te kele, pea neʼe natou kai leva te kanoʼi manu mo te toto.+
33 Pea neʼe fakaha age leva kia Saulo te faʼahi ʼaeni: “Koʼeni ʼe agahala te hahaʼi kia Sehova ʼi tanatou kai te kanoʼi manu mo te toto.”+ Neʼe ina ui: “Neʼe kotou heʼe agatonu ʼi te meʼa ʼae neʼe kotou fai. Kotou foimo fuli mai he foʼi maka lahi.”
34 Pea neʼe ui e Saulo: “Kotou mavete atu ʼo logologo ki te hahaʼi: ‘Kotou tahi ʼaumai tana vitulo mo tana ovi ke kotou matehi ʼi heni, pea mo kotou kai leva. ʼAua naʼa kotou agahala kia Sehova ʼo kotou kai te kanoʼi manu mo te toto.’ ”+ ʼI te po ʼaia, neʼe natou tahi ʼaumai ai tana vitulo ʼo matehi ʼi ai.
35 Pea neʼe laga e Saulo he ʼaletale maʼa Sehova.+ Neʼe ko te ʼuluaki ʼaletale ʼaia neʼe ina laga maʼa Sehova.
36 Ki muli age, neʼe ui e Saulo: “Tou hifo pea tou tuli te kau Filisitini ʼi te poʼuli mo toʼo ʼonatou koloa ʼo kaku ki te mafoa ʼo te ʼaho. ʼE mole tou tuku anai ke maʼuli he tahi.” Neʼe natou tali age: “Fai te meʼa ʼae ʼe lelei ki ʼou mata.” Pea neʼe ui e te pelepitelo: “Tou fakaovi ʼi heni ki te ʼAtua moʼoni.”+
37 Pea neʼe fehuʼi e Saulo ki te ʼAtua: “ ʼE tonu koa ke au tuli te kau Filisitini?+ ʼE ke tuku anai koa natou ki te ʼu nima ʼo Iselaele?” Kae neʼe mole tali age e te ʼAtua ʼi te ʼaho ʼaia.
38 Koia neʼe ui ai e Saulo: “Kau takitaki ʼo te hahaʼi, kotou ʼomai fuli ki heni pea kotou vakaʼi pe kotea te agahala ʼae neʼe fai ʼi te ʼaho nei.
39 Koteʼuhi, ʼe au fakapapau atu ia muʼa ʼo Sehova, te ʼAtua maʼuli ʼae neʼe ina haofaki ia Iselaele, tatau aipe mo kapau ʼe maʼu atu ko Sonatane toku foha, ʼe tonu anai ke matehi.” Kae neʼe mole he tahi ʼi te hahaʼi neʼe tali age ki ai.
40 Neʼe ina ui leva ki Iselaele katoa: “ ʼE kotou tutuʼu anai ʼi te tahi faʼahi, kae ʼe ma tutuʼu anai mo Sonatane toku foha ʼi te tahi faʼahi.” Pea neʼe tali e te hahaʼi kia Saulo: “Fai te meʼa ʼae ʼe lelei ki ʼou mata.”
41 Neʼe ui leva e Saulo kia Sehova: “ ʼAtua ʼo Iselaele, tali mai ʼaki te Tumime!”+ Pea neʼe filifili leva ia Sonatane mo Saulo, kae neʼe tuku te hahaʼi ke olo.
42 Neʼe ui e Saulo: “Fai he toho+ ke iloʼi ai pe ʼe ko au peʼe ko Sonatane, toku foha.” Pea neʼe filifili leva ia Sonatane.
43 Neʼe ui e Saulo kia Sonatane: “Fakaha mai, kotea ʼae neʼe ke fai?” Pea neʼe tali age leva e Sonatane: “Neʼe au ʼahiʼahi pe he moʼi meli ʼaki te muʼamuʼaʼi ʼakau ʼae ʼi toku nima.+ Koʼeni au! Kotou matehi au!”
44 Pea neʼe ui e Saulo: “Ke tauteaʼi lahi au e te ʼAtua mo kapau ʼe mole matehi koe, Sonatane.”+
45 Kae neʼe ui e te hahaʼi kia Saulo: “ ʼE tonu koa ke matehi ia Sonatane, ʼae neʼe ina foaki te toe malo lahi ʼaeni+ ki Iselaele? ʼE mole feala anai ke hoko! ʼE matou fakapapau ia muʼa ʼo Sehova, te ʼAtua maʼuli, ʼe mole to anai ki te kele he fuluʼi ʼulu ʼe tahi ʼo tona ʼulu, koteʼuhi neʼe tokoni te ʼAtua kia ia ʼi te ʼaho nei.”+ Neʼe haofaki* ai e te hahaʼi ia Sonatane, ʼo mole mate ai.
46 Neʼe tuku leva e Saulo tana tuli te kau Filisitini pea neʼe olo ai te kau Filisitini ki tonatou fenua.
47 Neʼe fakatuʼu e Saulo tana pule ki Iselaele ke malohi pea neʼe ina tauʼi ʼona fili fuli mai te ʼu potu kehekehe, te kau Moape,+ mo te kau Amone,+ mo te kau Etome,+ mo te ʼu hau ʼo Tesopa,+ mo te kau Filisitini.+ Pea ko he faʼahi pe neʼe alu ki ai, neʼe malo ia natou.
48 Neʼe tau mo he lototoʼa pea neʼe malo ʼi te kau Amaleke,+ ʼo ina haofaki ai Iselaele mai te ʼu nima ʼo ʼonatou fili.
49 Ko te ʼu foha ʼo Saulo neʼe ko Sonatane, mo Sisevi pea mo Malekisua.+ Neʼe ko ʼona ʼofafine ʼe lua, neʼe higoa ia ia ʼae ʼe lahi ko Melape,+ pea ko te muli ko Mikale.+
50 Neʼe higoa te ʼohoana ʼo Saulo ko Asinoame, te ʼofafine ʼo Asimaate. Neʼe higoa te pule ʼo tana kautau ko Apenele,+ te foha ʼo Nele, te tehina ʼo te tamai ʼa Saulo.
51 Ko Kisi+ neʼe ko te tamai ʼa Saulo, pea ko Nele,+ te tamai ʼa Apenele, neʼe ko te foha ʼo Apiele.
52 ʼI te temi ʼae neʼe pule ai Saulo, neʼe malohi tana tauʼi te kau Filisitini.+ Ka sio ia Saulo ki he tagata malohi mo lototoʼa, neʼe ina toʼo ia ia ke kau ki tana kau solia.+
