1Pea naʻe fakahā kia Soape, “Vakai, ʻoku tangi mo mamahi ʻae tuʻi koeʻuhi ko ʻApisalomi.”
1U A haiia'ku ia Ioaba, Aia ke uwe nei ke alii, a ke kanikau nei oia no Abesaloma.
2Pea ko e fakamoʻui ʻoe ʻaho ko ia naʻe liliu ia ko e fakamamahi ki he kakai kotoa pē: he naʻe fanongo ʻe he kakai ʻi he ʻaho ko ia ki he mamahi ʻoe tuʻi koeʻuhi ko hono ʻalo.
2Ia la, lilo ae la ke ola i mea e kanikau ai o na kanaka a pau: no ka mea, ua lohe na kanaka ia la, i ka haiia mai o ka uwe ana o ke alii no kana keiki.
3Pea ʻi he ʻaho ko ia naʻe ʻalu fakatoitoi pe ʻae kakai ki he kolo, ʻo hangē ko e ʻalu fakatoitoi ha kakai ʻi heʻenau mā ʻoka nau ka feholataki ʻi he tau.
3A hoi malu aku la na kanaka iloko o ke kulanakauhale ia la, e like me na kanaka hilahila e holo malu aku, ke hee lakou i ke kaua.
4Ka naʻe ʻufiʻufi ʻe he tuʻi ʻa hono fofonga, pea naʻe tangi ʻaki ʻe he tuʻi ʻae leʻo lahi, ʻOiauē, ʻa hoku foha ko ʻApisalomi, “ʻOiauē ʻApisalomi, ko hoku ʻalo, ko hoku ʻalo!”
4Aka, o ke alii, pulou iho la ia i kona maka, a uwe aku la ke alii me ka leo nui, E kuu keiki e Abesaloma e! e Abesaloma kuu keiki, kuu keiki e!
5Pea naʻe hau ʻa Soape ki loto fale ki he tuʻi, ʻo ne pehē, “Kuo ke fakamaaʻi he ʻaho ni ʻae mata kotoa pē ʻo hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki, ʻaia kuo fakahaofi ʻa hoʻo moʻui he ʻaho ni, mo e moʻui ʻa hoʻo ngaahi foha mo hoʻo ngaahi ʻofefine, mo e moʻui ʻa hoʻo ngaahi uaifi, mo e moʻui ʻa hoʻo kau sinifu;
5Hele aku la o Ioaba iloko o ka hale i ke alii, i aku la, Ua hoohilahila oe i keia la i na maka o kau poe kauwa a pau, o ka poe nana i malama i kou ola, a me ke ola o kau mau keikikane, a me kau mau kaikamahine, a me ke ola o kau mau wahine, a me ke ola o kau mau haiawahine;
6Ko e meʻa ʻi hoʻo ʻofa ki ho ngaahi fili, ka kuo ke fehiʻa ki ho kāinga. He kuo ke fakahā he ʻaho ni ʻoku ʻikai mahuʻinga kiate koe ʻae houʻeiki pe ko e kau tamaioʻeiki: he ʻoku ou mamata he ʻaho ni, ka ne moʻui pe ʻa ʻApisalomi, ke mau mate kotoa pē ʻakimautolu he ʻaho ni, pehē kuo ke lelei ai.
6Ma kou aloha ana aku i kou poe enemi, a me ka hoowahawaha ana i kou poe hoalauna: no ka mea, ua hoike mai oe i keia la, he mea ole ia oe na alii a me na kauwa: a ke ike nei au i keia la, ina paha i ola o Abesaloma, a make makou a pau i keia la, ina ua oluolu io no oe.
7Ko ia foki, tuʻu hake, pea ʻalu atu, pea lea fakafiemālie ki he loto ʻo hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki: he ʻoku ou fuakava ʻia Sihova kiate koe, kapau ʻe ʻikai te ke ʻalu atu, ʻe ʻikai toe kiate koe ha tokotaha ʻi he poōni: pea ʻe kovi lahi hake ia ʻi he kovi kotoa pē kuo hoko mai kiate koe talu mei hoʻo kei siʻi ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ni.”
7Ano hoi, e ala'e oe, e hele iwaho, a e olelo hooluolu aku i kau poe kauwa. Ke hoohiki aku nei au ma o Iehova la, a i hele ole aku oe, aole e noho kekahi me oe i neia po; a e ino loa aku ia mea, i na mea ino a pau i hiki mai iou la mai kou wa opiopio a hiki ia nei.
8Pea naʻe toki tuʻu hake ai ʻae tuʻi, ʻo ne ʻafio ʻi he matapā. Pea naʻa nau fakahā ki he kakai kotoa pē, ʻo pehē, “Vakai, kuo ʻafio ʻae tuʻi ʻi he matapā.” Pea naʻe haʻu ʻae kakai kotoa pē ki he ʻao ʻoe tuʻi: he kuo hola ʻae kau tangata kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli taki taha ki hono fale fehikitaki.
8Alaila ala'e la ke alii, a noho iho la ma ka ipuka o ka pa. Hai aku la lakou i na kanaka a panu, Aia hoi, ke noho mai la ke alii ma ka ipuka. A hele mai la na kanaka a pau imua o ke alii; no ka mea, ua mahuka aku la ka Iseraela o kela kanaka keia kanaka a pau i kona halelewa iho.
9¶ Pea naʻe fekeʻikeʻi ʻae kakai kotoa pē ʻi he ngaahi faʻahinga ʻo ʻIsileli kotoa pē, ʻo fepehēʻaki, “Naʻe fakamoʻui ʻakitautolu ʻe he tuʻi mei he nima ʻo hotau ngaahi fili, pea naʻa ne fakahaofi ʻakitautolu mei he nima ʻoe kau Filisitia; pea kuo ne hola eni mei he fonua koeʻuhi ko ʻApisalomi.”
9Hoopaapaa ae la na kanaka a pau ma na ohana a pau o ka Iseraela, i ae la, Ua hoola mai ke alii ia kakou mai ka lima ae o ko kakou poe enemi, a ua hoopakele hoi oia ia kakou mai ka lima ae o ko Pilisetia: ano hoi, ua holo aku no ia mawaho o ka aina no Abesaloma.
10Pea ko ʻApisalomi ʻaia naʻa tau fakanofo kiate kitautolu, kuo mate ʻi he tau. Pea ko ia foki ko e hā ʻoku mou taʻelea ai ke toe ʻomi ʻae tuʻi?
10A o Abesaloma ka mea a kakou i poni ai i alii maluna o kakou, ua make ia iloko o ke kaua: heaha hoi ka mea e olelo ole aku ai oukou i kekahi huaolelo no ka hoihoi ana mai i ke alii?
11¶ Pea naʻe fekau ʻe he tuʻi ko Tevita kia Satoki mo ʻApiata ko e ongo taulaʻeiki, ʻo ne pehē, “Mo lea ki he mātuʻa ʻo Siuta, ʻo pehē, Ko e hā ʻoku mou tomui ai ʻi he toe ʻomi ʻae tuʻi ki hono fale? Ka kuo hā mai ʻae lea ʻa ʻIsileli kotoa pē ki he tuʻi ki hono fale.
11Hoouna aku la o Davida ke alii io Zadoka la a me Abiatara na kahuna, i aku la, E olelo aku olua i na lunakahiko o ka Iuda, e i aku, No ke aha la e lohi loa nei oukou i ka hoihoi ana mai i ke alii i kona hale? no ka mea, ua hiki mai ka olelo a ka Iseraela a pau i ke alii, a i kona ohana.
12Ko hoku kāinga kimoutolu, ko hoku hui mo hoku kakano kimoutolu: ko ia ko e hā ʻoku mou tomui ai ʻi he toe ʻomi ʻae tuʻi?”
12Oukou no na hoahanau o'u, oukou no ko'u mau iwi a me ko'u io; no ke aha hoi e lohi loa nei oukou i ka hoihoi aku i ke alii?
13Pea mo pehē atu kia ʻAmasa, “ʻIkai ʻoku ke ʻo hoku hui, pea ʻo hoku kakano? Ke fai pehē ʻe he ʻOtua kiate au ʻo lahi hake foki, ʻo kapau ʻe ʻikai te ke ʻeiki koe ki he kautau ʻi hoku ʻao maʻuaipē, ko e fetongi ʻo Soape.”
13E i aku hoi olua ia Amasa, Aole anei oe no kuu iwi a me kuu io? Pela ke Akua e hana mai ai ia'u, a nui aku, i ole oe ka lunakaua mau imua o'u ma ko Ioaba wahi.
14Pea naʻa ne ueʻi ʻae loto ʻoe kakai kotoa pē ʻo Siuta, ʻo hangē kuo nau taha pe; ko ia ne nau ʻave ai ʻae lea ni ki he tuʻi, Ke ke foki mai koe, pea mo hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki kotoa pē.
14Hoohuli mai la kela i ka naau o na kanaka a pau o ka Iuda, e like me ko ke kanaka hookahi; nolaila, olelo aku la lakou i ke alii, E hoi hou mai oe a me au mau kauwa a pau.
15Ko ia naʻe foki mai ʻae tuʻi, ʻo ne haʻu ki Sioatani. Pea naʻe haʻu ʻakinautolu ʻo Siuta ki Kilikali, ke fakafetaulaki atu ki he tuʻi, pea ke ʻomi ʻae tuʻi ki he kauvai ʻe taha ʻo Sioatani.
15Alaila hoi mai la ke alii, a hiki mai i Ioredane. A hele mai la ka Iuda i Gilegala e halawai me ke alii, a e alakai i ke alii ma keia aoao o Ioredane.
16¶ Pea ko Simi ko e foha ʻo Kela, ko e tangata Penisimani, ʻaia naʻe ʻo Pahulimi, naʻa ne ʻalu fakatoʻotoʻo hifo mo e kau tangata ʻo Siuta, ke fetaulaki mo e tuʻi ko Tevita.
16Ao Simei ke keiki a Gera, he mamo na Beniamina no Bahurima, wikiwiki ae la ia a iho pu aku la me na kanaka o ka Iuda e halawai me ke alii me Davida.
17Pea naʻe ʻalu mo ia ʻae kau tangata Penisimani ʻe toko taha afe, pea mo Sipa ko e tamaioʻeiki mei he fale ʻo Saula, pea mo hono foha ʻoʻona ʻe toko hongofulu ma toko nima, pea mo ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki ʻe toko uofulu; pea naʻa nau muʻomuʻa atu ʻi he tuʻi ʻi heʻene aʻa ʻi Sioatani.
17Me ia pu na kanaka o ka Beniamina he tausani, a o Ziba ke kauwa na ka ohana a Saula, a me ia hoi na keikikane ana he umikumamalima, a me na kauwa ana he iwakalua: hele mai la lakou ma keia aoao o Ioredane imua o ke alii.
18Pea naʻe ʻalu foki ʻae vaka fokotuʻu ke fetukutuku ai ʻae kaungāʻapi ʻoe tuʻi, pea ke fai ha meʻa naʻe pehē ʻe ia ke fai. Pea naʻe tō hifo ʻa Simi ko e foha ʻo Kela ʻi he ʻao ʻoe tuʻi ʻi heʻene laka mai mei Sioatani;
18A holo ae la ka waapa e alo mai i ko ka hale o ke alii, a e lawelawe hoi i ka mea a ke alii i manao ai he pono. Moe iho la o Simei ke keiki a Gera imua o ke alii i kona pae ana i keia aoao o Ioredane.
19ʻo ne pehē ki he tuʻi, “ʻOua naʻa tuku ha hia kiate au ʻe hoku ʻeiki, pea ʻoua foki naʻa ke manatuʻi ʻae meʻa naʻe fai angatuʻu ai ʻe hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ʻi he ʻaho ko ia naʻe ʻalu atu ai ʻa hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi mei Selūsalema, ke mamahi ai ʻae loto ʻoe tuʻi.
19I mai la ia i ke alii, mai manao hewa mai kuu haku ia'u, aole hoi e hoomauhala i ka mea a kau kauwa i hana kolohe aku ai i ka la a kuu haku a ke alii i puka mai ai iwaho o Ierusalema, i waiho ai ke alii ia mea maloko o kona naau.
20He ʻoku ʻiloʻi ʻe hoʻo tamaioʻeiki kuo u fai angahala: pea ko ia foki kuo u haʻu ke u muʻomuʻa mai he ʻaho ni ʻi he fale kotoa pē ʻo Siosefa ke u hoko mai ke fakafetaulaki ki hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi.”
20No ka mea, ke ike nei kau kauwa; ua hana hewa no wau: nolaila, eia au i hele mai nei, ka mea mua o ka ohana a Iosepa, i iho mai e halawai me kuu haku me ke alii.
21Ka naʻe pehēange ʻe ʻApisai ko e tama ʻa Seluia, “ʻIkai ʻe tāmateʻi ʻa Simi koeʻuhi ko e meʻa ni, koeʻuhi ko ʻene lea kapekape kiate ia kuo pani ʻaki ʻae lolo ʻe Sihova?”
21Olelo mai la o Abisai ke keiki a Zeruia, i mai la, Aole anei e make o Simei ia mea; no ka mea, ua hoino mai ia i ka Iehova mea i poniia?
22Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Tevita, “Ko e hā kimoutolu kiate au, ʻakimoutolu ʻae ngaahi tama ʻo Seluia, ke mou hoko ai ko e ngaahi fili kiate au he ʻaho ni? He ʻe tāmateʻi ha tokotaha ʻi ʻIsileli ʻi he ʻaho ni? He ʻoku ʻikai te u ʻilo koā kuo u tuʻi au he ʻaho ni ki ʻIsileli?”
22I aku la o Davida, Heaha ka'u ia olua, e na keiki a Zeruia, i ku e mai ai olua ia'u i keia la? E make anei kekahi kanaka i keia la iloko o ka Iseraela? Aole anei au i ike, owau no ke alii i keia la maluna o ka Iseraela?
23Ko ia naʻe pehē ai ʻe he tuʻi kia Simi, “ʻE ʻikai te ke mate. Pea naʻe fuakava ʻe he tuʻi kiate ia.”
23I aku la ke alii ia Simei, Aole oe e make: a hoohiki aku la ke alii ia ia.
24¶ Pea naʻe ʻalu hifo ʻa Mifiposeti ko e foha ʻo Saula ke fetaulaki mo e tuʻi, pea naʻe ʻikai ke kaukau hono vaʻe, pe teuteuʻi hono kava, pe fō hono ngaahi kofu, talu mei he ʻaho ko ia naʻe ʻalu atu ai ʻae tuʻi, ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho naʻa ne toe haʻu ai ʻi he melino.
24Iho aku la hoi o Mepiboseta ka moopuna a Saula e halawai me ke alii; aole ia i hooponopono i kona mau wawae, aole i hoomaikai i kona umiumi, aole no hoi i holoi i kona kapa, mai ka la i hele aku ai ke alii, a hiki i ka la i hoi hou mai ai ia me ka malu.
25Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi heʻene hoko mai ki Selūsalema, ke fetaulaki mo e tuʻi, naʻe pehē ʻe he tuʻi kiate ia, “ʻE Mifiposeti, ko e hā naʻe ʻikai te ta ō ai mo au?”
25A hiki mai la ia i Ierusalema e halawai me ke alii, i aku la ke alii ia ia, E Mepiboseta, heaha kau i hele pu ole ai me au?
26Pea naʻe pehēange ʻe ia, “ʻE hoku ʻeiki, ko e tuʻi, naʻe kākaaʻi au ʻe hoku tamaioʻeiki: he naʻe pehē ʻe hoʻo tamaioʻeiki, ‘Te u ʻai ha hekaʻanga ki he ʻasi, koeʻuhi ke u heka ai ʻo ʻalu ki he tuʻi; koeʻuhi ʻoku ketu ʻa hoʻo tamaioʻeiki.’
26I mai la kela, E kuu haku, e ke alii, ua hoopunipuni mai kuu kauwa ia'u: no ka mea, i aku la kau kauwa, e hoee aku no au i ka noho maluna o ka hoki no'u, i holo ai au maluna, a hele aku i ke alii; no ka mea, he oopa kau kauwa.
27Pea kuo ne lauʻikoviʻi ʻa hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ki hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi; ka ʻoku tatau ʻa hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi mo ha ʻāngelo ʻae ʻOtua: ko ia ke ke fai ʻaia ʻoku matamatalelei kiate koe.
27A ua alapahi kela i kau kauwa imua o kuu haku o ke alii; a ua like kuu haku ke alii me ka anela o ke Akua; nolaila, e hana aku oe i ka mea pono ma kou maka.
28He ko kinautolu kotoa pē ʻoe fale ʻa ʻeku tamai, ko e kau mate kinautolu ʻi he ʻao ʻo hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi: ka neongo ia naʻa ke fakanofo ʻa hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ko au ʻi he haʻohaʻonga ʻokinautolu naʻe kai mei ho keinangaʻanga ʻoʻou. Ko ia foki ʻe totonu fēfē ʻa ʻeku toe tangi ki he tuʻi?”
28No ka mea, ua like me na kanaka make ka poe ohana a pau o kuu kupunakane imua o kuu haku o ke alii; aka, ua hoonoho oe i kau kauwa iwaena o ka poe nana i ai ma kou papaaina iho: heaha hoi kuu pono e kahea hou aku ai i ke alii?
29Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tuʻi kiate ia, “Ko e hā ʻoku ke kei lea ai ki hoʻo ngaahi meʻa ʻaʻau? Kuo ʻosi ʻeku lea, Ke mo vaheua mo Sipa ʻae fonua.”
29I aku la ke alii ia ia, No ke aha oe e olelo hou mai nei no kau mau mea? Ua olelo aku no wau, E hoolike a like olua me Ziba i ka aina.
30Pea naʻe pehēange ʻe Mifiposeti ki he tuʻi, “Tuku ke ne maʻu kotoa pē maʻana, koeʻuhi kuo toe hoko mai ʻa hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi ki hono fale ʻoʻona ʻi he melino.”
30I mai la o Mepiboseta i ke alii, Ae, e lawe kela nona i na mea a pau: no ka mea, ua hoi hou mai nei kuu haku ke alii i kona hale me ka malu.
31¶ Pea naʻe ʻalu hifo ʻa Pasilai ko e tangata Kiliati mei Lokelimi, pea naʻe ʻalu atu ia mo e tuʻi ki he kauvai ʻo Sioatani, ke ne fakaaʻa atu ia ʻi Sioatani.
31Iho mai la hoi o Barezilai no Gileada mai Rogelima mai a hele pu mai me ke alii ma keia kapa o Ioredane, e alakai ia ia ma neia aoao o Ioredane.
32Ka ko eni naʻe motuʻa lahi ʻaupito ʻa Pasilai, he naʻe valungofulu ʻa hono taʻu: pea naʻa ne tokonaki meʻakai maʻae tuʻi lolotonga ʻa ʻene nofo ʻi Mehanemi; he ko e tangata ʻeikilahi ia.
32He kanaka elemakule o Barezilai; he kanawalu kona mau makahiki: a hanai aku la ia i ke alii i kona wa i noho ai ma Mahanaima; no ka mea, he kanaka koikoi nui loa ia.
33Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tuʻi kia Pasilai, Haʻu koe ke ta aʻa atu mo au, pea te u fafangaʻi koe mo au ʻi Selūsalema.
33I aku la ke alii ia Barezilai, E hele pu oe me au, a e hanai aku no au ia oe ma Ierusalema.
34Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Pasilai ki he tuʻi, “He ʻoku toe fiha ʻae ngaahi ʻaho ʻo ʻeku moʻui, koeʻuhi ke u ʻalu hake ai mo e tuʻi ki Selūsalema?
34I mai la o Barezilai i ke alii, Ehia mau la o kuu ola e koe, i pii aku ai au me ke alii i Ierusalema?
35ʻOku ou valungofulu taʻu he ʻaho ni pea ʻoku ou faʻa fai koā ke fifili ki he meʻa ʻoku lelei mo ia ʻoku kovi? He ʻoku faʻa ifoifo ʻe hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ʻaia ʻoku ou kai pe ko ia ʻoku ou inu? Pea ʻoku ou kei faʻa ongoʻi koā ʻae leʻo ʻoe kau tangata fasi hiva mo e kau fefine fasi hiva?” Pea ka kuo pehē, ko e hā hono ʻaonga ʻoe hoko ʻa hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ko e fakamāfasia pe ki hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi?
35He kanawalu na makahiki o'u i keia la; e hiki anei ia'u ke ike mawaena o ka pono a me ka hewa? Ua ono anei i kau kauwa ka'u mea e ai ai, a me ka'u mea e inu ai? e lohe hou anei au i ka leo o na kane mea mele a me na wahine mea mele? no ke aha hoi e hookaumaha aku ai kau kauwa i kuu haku i ke alii?
36ʻE ʻalu mamaʻo siʻi atu pe ʻa hoʻo tamaioʻeiki mo e tuʻi ki he kauvai ʻe taha ʻo Sioatani: pea ko e hā hono ʻuhinga ʻoe totongi kiate au ʻe he tuʻi ʻi ha totongi pehē fau?
36E hele ana kau kauwa ma o iki aku o Ioredane me ke alii: no ke aha hoi e hoouku mai ai ke alii ia'u ia uku nui?
37ʻOku ou kole kiate koe, tuku ʻa hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ke toe foki ki mui, koeʻuhi ke u mate ʻi hoku kolo ʻoʻoku, ʻo ofi ki he faʻitoka ʻo ʻeku tamai pea mo ʻeku faʻē. “Kae vakai, ko hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ko Kimami; tuku ke ʻalu atu ia mo hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi; pea ke fai kiate ia ʻaia ʻoku lelei ʻi ho ʻao.”
37Ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e ae mai oe i kau kauwa e hoi hou aku ia, i make au maloko o kuu kulanakauhale, ma ka halekupapau o kuu makuakane a me uku makuwahine. Aka, eia hoi kau kauwa o Kimehama; e aho e hele pu ia me kuu haku me ke alii; e hana aku oe ia ia e like me ka mea pono ia oe.
38Pea naʻe pehēange ʻe he tuʻi, “ʻE ʻalu atu mo au ʻa Kimami, pea te u fai kiate ia ʻaia te ke loto koe ki ai: pea ko ia kotoa pē ʻoku ke loto mai ke u fai, te u fai ia maʻau.”
38I aku la ke alii, E hele pu o Kimehama me au, a e hana aku au ia ia ma ka mea pono ia oe: a o ka mea au e makemake mai ai ia'u, oia ka'u e hana aku ai nou.
39Pea naʻe aʻa atu ʻae kakai kotoa pē ʻi Sioatani. Pea hili ʻae lava atu ʻae tuʻi, naʻe ʻuma ʻe he tuʻi kia Pasilai, mo ne tāpuakiʻi ia; pea naʻe toe foki atu ia ki hono potu ʻoʻona.
39Hele mai la na kanaka a pau ma neia aoao o Ioredane. A pae mai ke alii, alaila honi ae la ke alii ia Barezilai, a hoomaikai aku la ia ia, a hoi hou aku la ia i kona wahi.
40¶ Hili ia naʻe mole atu ʻae tuʻi ki Kilikali, pea naʻe ʻalu atu mo ia ʻa Kimami: pea naʻe fakafeʻao ki he tuʻi ʻae kakai kotoa pē ʻo Siuta, pea mo hono vaheua ʻoe kakai ʻo ʻIsileli.
40Alaila hele aku la ke alii i Gilegala, a hele pu aku la o Kimehama me ia: a alakai aku la na kanaka a pau o ka Iuda i ke alii, a pela hoi kekahi hapa o na kanaka o ka Iseraela.
41Pea vakai, naʻe haʻu ki he tuʻi ʻae kau tangata kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻonau pehē ki he tuʻi, “Ko e hā kuo ʻave fakakaihaʻa ai koe ʻe homau kāinga ko e kau tangata ʻo Siuta, pea kuo nau ʻomi ʻekinautolu ʻae tuʻi, pea mo hono kaungā nofoʻanga, pea mo e kau tangata kotoa pē ʻo Tevita, ki he kauvai ni ʻo Sioatani?”
41Aia hoi, hele mai la na kanaka a pau o ka Iseraela i ke alii, i aku la i ke alii, No ke aha la i aihue aku ai ko makou mau hoahanau na kanaka o ka Iuda ia oe, a ua kai mai i ke alii a me ko ka hale ona, a me na kanaka o Davida a pau me ia ma keia kapa o Ioredane?
42Pea naʻe tali ʻe he kau tangata kotoa pē ʻo Siuta ki he kau tangata ʻIsileli, ʻo pehē , “Koeʻuhi ko homau kāinga ofi lahi ʻae tuʻi: ko ia ko e hā ʻoku mou ʻita ai ʻi he meʻa ni? He kuo mau kai mei he meʻakai ʻae tuʻi? Pe kuo ne ʻomi ha koloa kiate kimautolu?”
42Olelo aku la na kanaka a pau o ka Iuda i na kanaka o ka Iseraela, no ka mea, ua hookahi kona hanauna me ko makou; heaha ka oukou e huhu mai nei ia mea? Ua ai iki anei makou i ka ke alii? a ua haawi mai anei ia i ka manawalea ia makou?
43Pea naʻe leaange ʻe he kau tangata ʻIsileli ki he kau tangata Siuta, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku mau maʻu ʻae vahe ʻe hongofulu ʻi he tuʻi, pea ʻoku totonu lahi hake ʻemau kau kia Tevita ʻiate kimoutolu: ko ia ko e hā kuo mou paetaku ai kiate kimautolu ʻi he ʻikai tomuʻa kumi ʻemau lea ʻamautolu ki he toe ʻomi ʻa homau tuʻi?” Pea naʻe mālohi hake ʻae ngaahi lea ʻae kau tangata Siuta ʻi he ngaahi lea naʻe fai ʻe he kau tangata ʻIsileli.
43Olelo aku la na kanaka o ka Iseraela i na kanaka o ka Iuda, i ae la, He umi mau hakina o ke alii ka makou, a he nui aku ka makou ia Davida i ka oukou: no ke aha hoi oukou i hoowahawaha ai ia makou, i lilo ole ka makou olelo no ka hoihoi ana mai i ke alii i ka mea mua? A o ka olelo ana a na kanaka o ka Iuda, he ikaika aku ia i ka olelo ana a na kanaka o ka Iseraela.
