Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
Tongan Bible, Revised West Version
1OLELO mai la o Iehova ia Samuela, Pehea la ka loihi o kou uwe ana ia Saula, no ka mea, ua haalele au ia ia, aole oia ke alii maluna o ka Iseraela? E hoopiha oe i kou pepeiaohao i ka aila, a e hele, e hoouna aku au ia oe io Iese la no Betelehema: no ka mea, ua wae iho au i alii no'u iwaena o kana mau keiki.
1Pea 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.
2I aku la o Samuela, Pehea la wau e hele ai? ina lohe o Saula, e pepehi mai ia ia'u. Olelo mai la o Iehova, E lawe pu me oe i bipiwahine, a e i aku, Ua hele mai nei au e kaumaha aku ia Iehova.
2Pea 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.
3A e kahea aku oe ia Iese e hele i ka mohai, a e hoike aku au ia oe i kau mea e hana aku ai: a e poni iho oe no'u i ka mea a'u e olelo aku ai ia oe.
3Pea 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.”
4A hana aku la o Samuela i ka Iehova i olelo mai ai, a hele aku la i Betelehema: a haalulu na lunakahiko o ke kulanakauhale i kona hiki ana mai, i mai la, I hele mai nei oe me ke aloha?
4Pea 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?”
5I aku la ia, Me ke aloha no: i hele mai nei au e kaumaha aku ia Iehova; e hoomaemae oukou ia oukou iho, a e hele pu mai me au i ka mohai. Hoomaemae aku la oia ia Iese a me kana mau keiki, a kahea aku la oia ia lakou i ka mohai.
5Pea 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.
6A i ko lakou hiki ana mai, nana aku oia ia Eliaba, i iho la, He oiaio imua o'u ka poni a Iehova.
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.”
7A olelo mai la o Iehova ia Samuela, Mai nana oe i kona ano mawaho, aole hoi i ka loihi o kona kino; ua hoole aku au ia ia: no ka mea, aole ma ka mea a ke kanaka i ike; ke nana nei ke kanaka i na helehelena, aka, ke nana nei o Iehova i ka naau.
7Ka 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.”
8A kahea aku la o Iese ia Abinadaba, a hoike ia ia imua o Samuela. I mai la ia, Aole i wae mai o Iehova i keia.
8Hili 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.
9Hoike aku la o Iese ia Sama. I mai la ia, Aole o Iehova i wae mai i keia.
9Pea naʻe fekau ʻe Sese ke ʻalu ange ʻa Sama. Pea pehē ʻe ia, “ʻOku ʻikai fili foki ia ʻe Sihova.”
10Hoike aku la o Iese i kana mau keikikane ehiku imua o Samuela. I mai la o Samuela ia Iese, Aole o Iehova i wae mai ia lakou nei.
10Pea 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.”
11Ninau aku la o Samuela ia Iese, O ka pau anei keia o na keiki? I mai la ia, O ka pokii wale no i koe, aia hoi, ke malama nei ia i na hipa. I aku la o Samuela ia Iese, E kii, a lawe mai ia ia: no ka mea, aole kakou e noho iho a hiki mai ia.
11Pea 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.”
12Kii aku la ia, a lawe mai ia ia. He ehu, he nani kona mau maka, he maikai ke nana aku. Olelo mai o Iehova, E ku ae oe, a e poni ia ia, no ka mea, oia no ia.
12Pea 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.”
13Alaila lalau aku la o Samuela i ka pepeiaohao aila, a poni ia ia iwaena o kona mau hoahanau: a hiki mai la ka Uhane o Iehova maluna o Davida ia la, a ma ia hope aku. Ku ae la o Samuela, a hele aku ma Rama.
13Pea 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.
14A haalele ka Uhane o Iehova ia Saula, a hikilele mai ka uhane ino maluna ona na Iehova mai.
14¶ Ka naʻe mahuʻi ʻae Laumālie ʻo Sihova meia Saula, pea naʻe fakamamahiʻi ia ʻe he laumālie kovi meia Sihova.
15I mai la na kauwa a Saula ia ia, Aia hoi, ano ua hiki wawe mai ka uhane ino i ou la na ke Akua mai.
15Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he kau tamaioʻeiki ʻa Saula kiate ia, “Ko eni, vakai, ko e laumālie kovi mei he ʻOtua ʻoku ne fakamamahiʻi koe.
16Ano, e ko makou haku, e olelo mai i kau mau kauwa imua ou, e imi lakou i kanaka akamai i ka hookani i ka lira: a i hiki mai ka uhane ino maluna ou na ke Akua mai; alaila oia e hookani ai me kona lima, a ola oe.
16Ke 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.”
17I aku la o Saula i kana mau kauwa, Ano e imi oukou no'u i kanaka akamai i ka hookani, a e lawe mai io'u nei.
17Pea 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.”
18Alaila olelo mai kekahi o na kauwa, i mai la, Aia hoi, ua ike au i kekahi keiki a Iese no Betelehema, ua akamai i ka hookani, a ua koa loa, a he kanaka kaua, a me ke akamai i ka olelo, a he helehelena maikai, a me ia no o Iehova.
18Pea 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.”
19Hoouna aku la o Saula i na elele io Iese la, i aku la, E hoouna mai io'u nei ia Davida, i kau keiki, aia no ia me ka poe hipa.
19Ko 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.”
20Lawe ae la o Iese i ka hoki, me ka berena, a me ka hue waina, a me kahi keikikao, a hoouna aku la ma ka lima o Davida, kana keiki, io Saula la.
20Pea 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.
21Hele aku la o Davida io Saula la, a ku imua ona: a ua nui kona aloha mai ia ia: a lilo ia i mea halihali i kana mea kaua.
21Pea 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.
22Hoouna aku la o Saula io Iese la, i aku la, Ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e ae mai oe, e ku o Davida imua o'u: no ka mea, ua loaa ia ia ke aloha imua o ko'u maka.
22Pea 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.”
23A i ka manawa i hiki mai ai ka uhane ino maluna o Saula na ke Akua mai, lalau aku la o Davida i ka lira, a hookani aku la me kona lima; a ua oluolu o Saula, a ua ola hoi, a haalele ka uhane ino ia ia.
23Pea 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.
