< 1 Chronicles 12 >

1 Now these are the men who came to David at Ziklag, while he was still shut up, because of Saul, the son of Kish; they were among the strong men, his helpers in war.
Ko kinautolu eni naʻe haʻu kia Tevita ki Sikilaki lolotonga ʻa ʻene kei fakafufū ia koeʻuhi ko Saula ko e foha ʻo Kisi: pea naʻa nau kau mo e kau tangata toʻa, ko e kau tokoni ʻi he tau.
2 They were armed with bows, and were able to send stones, and arrows from the bow, with right hand or left: they were Saul's brothers, of Benjamin.
Ko honau mahafutau ʻae kaufana, pea naʻa nau faʻa ngāueʻaki honau nima toʻomataʻu mo honau toʻohema ʻi he lī ʻae maka mo e fanaʻi ʻae ngahau mei he kaufana, pea naʻa nau ʻoe kāinga ʻo Saula ʻia Penisimani.
3 Ahiezer was their chief, then Joash, the sons of Shemaah the Gibeathite; and Jeziel and Pelet, the sons of Azmaveth; and Beracah and Jehu the Anathothite;
Ko ia naʻe ʻeiki hake ko ʻAhiesa, pea hoko mo ia ʻa Soasi, ko e ongo foha ʻo Simaʻa ko e tangata Kipea; mo Sisieli, mo Peleti, ko e ongo foha ʻo ʻAsimaveti; mo Pilaka, mo Sehu ko e tangata ʻAnatoti,
4 And Ishmaiah the Gibeonite, a great man among the thirty, and their chief; and Jeremiah and Jehaziel and Johanan and Jozabad the Gederathite;
Mo Isimaia ko e tangata Kipione, ko e tangata toʻa ia ʻi he “Toko Tolungofulu,” pea naʻe pule ia ki he “Toko Tolungofulu;” mo Selemaia, mo Sehesili, mo Sohanani, mo Sosapati ko e tangata Kitala,
5 Eluzai and Jerimoth and Bealiah and Shemariah and Shephatiah the Haruphite;
Mo Elusei, mo Selimoti, mo Pealia, mo Simalia, mo Sifatia ko e tangata Halufi,
6 Elkanah and Isshiah and Azarel and Joezer and Jashobeam, the Korahites;
Mo ʻElikena, mo Sisia, mo ʻAsalili, mo Soesa, mo Sasopeami, ko e kau tangata Kola,
7 And Joelah and Zebadiah, the sons of Jeroham of Gedor.
Mo Soela, mo Sepatia, ko e ongo foha ʻo Silohami ko e tangata Kitoa.
8 And some of the Gadites, siding with David, went to his strong place in the waste land, great and strong men, trained for war, expert in the use of arms, whose faces were like the faces of lions, and they were quick-footed like roes on the mountains;
Pea naʻe ai ʻae kakai Kata naʻe mavahe ʻakinautolu kia Tevita ke [nofo ]mo ia ʻi he potu mālohi ʻi he toafa, ko e kau tangata mālohi, mo e kau tangata ngalingali mo e fai ʻae tau, naʻa nau faʻa toʻo ʻae pā pea mo e tao, pea naʻe tatau ʻa honau mata mo e mata ʻoe fanga laione, pea naʻa nau veʻevave ʻo hangē ko e fanga tia ʻi he funga moʻunga;
9 Ezer their chief, Obadiah the second, Eliab the third,
Ko e ʻuluaki ʻa Eseli, ko hono toko ua ʻa ʻOpataia, ko hono toko tolu ʻa ʻIliapi,
10 Mishmannah the fourth, Jeremiah the fifth,
Ko hono toko fā ʻa Misimani, ko hono toko nima ʻa Selemaia,
11 Attai the sixth, Eliel the seventh,
Ko hono toko ono ʻa ʻAtai, ko hono toko fitu ʻa Ilieli.
12 Johanan the eighth, Elzabad the ninth,
Ko hono toko valu ʻa Sohanani, ko hono toko hiva ʻa Elisapati.
13 Jeremiah the tenth, Machbannai the eleventh.
Ko hono toko hongofulu ʻa Selemaia, pea ko hono toko hongofulu ma taha ʻa Makipanai.
14 These Gadites were captains of the army; the least of them was captain over a hundred men, and the greatest over a thousand.
Ko e ngaahi foha eni ʻo Kata, naʻe ʻeiki pule ki he kautau: ko ia naʻe siʻi hifo ʻiate kinautolu naʻe pule ki he toko teau, pea ko ia naʻe lahi hake naʻe pule ki he toko afe.
15 It was they who went over Jordan in the first month, when the river was overflowing, and put to flight all the people of the valleys, to the east and to the west.
Ko kinautolu eni naʻe ʻalu atu ʻi he Soatani ʻi he ʻuluaki māhina, lolotonga ʻa ʻene malofa atu ʻae vai ki hono kau vai kotoa pē; pea naʻa nau tuli ʻakinautolu kotoa pē naʻe nofo ʻi he ngaahi teleʻa, ki he feituʻu hahake, pea ki he lulunga.
16 And some of the children of Benjamin and Judah came to David in his strong place.
Pea naʻe haʻu foki ha niʻihi mei he fānau ʻa Penisimani mo Siuta ki he kolo mālohi kia Tevita.
17 And David went out to them, and said to them, If you have come in peace to give me help, my heart will be united with yours; but if you have come to give me up to those who would take my life, though my hands are clean from wrongdoing, then may the God of our fathers see it and give you punishment.
Pea naʻe ʻalu atu ʻa Tevita ke fakafetaulaki kiate kinautolu, pea naʻa ne lea ʻo pehē kiate kinautolu, “Kapau kuo mou omi fakamelino pe kiate au ke tokoni kiate au, ʻe kautaha ʻa hoku loto mo kimoutolu: ka ko eni, kapau kuo mou haʻu ke lavakiʻi au ki hoku ngaahi fili, ka ʻoku ʻikai ha fai fakamālohi ʻi hoku nima, ke ʻafioʻi ia ʻe he ʻOtua ʻoe tau ngaahi tamai, pea ne valoki ia.”
18 Then the spirit came on Amasai, who was chief of the captains, and he said, We are yours, David, we are on your side, O son of Jesse: may peace be with you and peace be with your helpers; for God is your helper. Then David took them into his army and made them captains of the band.
Pea naʻe toki hoko ʻae Laumālie kia ʻAmasai ʻaia naʻe ʻeiki hake ʻi he ngaahi ʻeikitau, [pea naʻa ne pehē], “ʻOku ʻoʻou [ʻakimautolu], ʻe Tevita, pea ʻoku [mau ]kau kiate koe, ʻa koe ko e foha ʻo Sese: ke melino, ke melino pe koe, pea ke melino ʻakinautolu ʻoku tokoni kiate koe; he ʻoku tokoni ʻe ho ʻOtua kiate koe. Pea naʻe toki maʻu ʻakinautolu ʻe Tevita, pea naʻa ne fakanofo ʻakinautolu ko e ngaahi ʻeikitau ki he kongakau.
19 And some of the men of Manasseh came over to David, when he went with the Philistines to the war against Saul, but he gave them no help: for the lords of the Philistines, after discussion, sent him away, saying, He will go back to his master Saul, at the price of our lives.
Pea naʻe tō mai kia Tevita ha niʻihi meia Manase, ʻi heʻene omi fakataha mo e kakai Filisitia ke tauʻi ʻa Saula: ka naʻe ʻikai maʻu ʻekinautolu ʻenau tokoni: he naʻe loto ʻae houʻeiki ʻoe kau Filisitia ke ne ʻalu, ʻonau pehē, “ʻE kau atu ia ki heʻene ʻeiki ko Saula, pea [ʻe tuʻutāmaki ai ]ʻa hotau ʻulu ʻotautolu.”
20 Then when he went back to Ziklag, there came over to him, of the men of Manasseh, Adnah and Jozabad and Jediael and Michael and Jozabad and Elihu and Zillethai, captains of thousands from the armies of Manasseh.
Lolotonga ʻa ʻene ʻalu ki Sikilaki, naʻe hoko mai kiate ia meia Manase, ʻa ʻAtina, mo Sosapati, mo Sitieli, mo Mikaeli, mo Sosapati, mo Ilihu, mo Silitei, ko e ngaahi ʻeiki pule [ʻakinautolu ]ki he ngaahi toko afe ʻo Manase.
21 And they gave David help against the armed bands, for they were all great men of war, and captains in the army.
Pea naʻa nau tokoni ʻa Tevita ʻaki ha kautau: he ko e kau tangata toʻa lahi ʻaupito ʻakinautolu kotoa pē, pea ko e ngaahi ʻeiki pule ʻakinautolu ʻi he kautau.
22 And from day to day more supporters came to David, till he had a great army like the army of God.
He ko e kuonga ko ia naʻe haʻu ai [ʻae kakai ]kia Tevita ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē ke tokoni kiate ia, pea naʻe fakaʻaʻau ʻo fuʻu tokolahi ʻa ʻene kautau, ʻo hangē ko e kautau ʻoe ʻOtua.
23 These are the numbers of the chiefs of the armed men, ready for war, who came to David at Hebron, to give the kingdom of Saul into his hands, as the Lord had said.
Pea ko hono lau eni ʻoe ngaahi kongakau naʻe tali teuteu ki he tau, mo nau omi kia Tevita ʻi Hepeloni, ke liliu ʻae puleʻanga ʻo Saula kiate ia, ʻo tatau mo e folofola ʻa Sihova.
24 There were six thousand, eight hundred spearmen of the children of Judah, armed for war;
Ko e fānau ʻa Siuta naʻe fua ʻae pā mo e tao ko e toko ono afe mo e valungeau, naʻe tali teuteu ki he tau.
25 Seven thousand, one hundred of the children of Simeon, great men of war;
‌ʻOe fānau ʻa Simione, ko e kau tangata mālohi mo toʻa ki he tau, ko e toko fitu afe mo e toko teau.
26 Of the children of Levi, four thousand, six hundred.
‌ʻOe fānau ʻa Livai ko e toko fā afe mo e onongeau.
27 And Jehoiada, chief of the family of Aaron, and with him three thousand, seven hundred men;
Pea ko Sihoiata ko ia naʻe tataki ʻae kakai ʻElone, pea naʻe ʻiate ia ʻae toko tolu afe ma fitungeau:
28 And Zadok, a young man, great and strong in war, with twenty-two captains from his father's people.
Mo Satoki, ko e tangata talavou naʻe mālohi mo toʻa lahi, pea mei he fale ʻo ʻene tamai ʻae ngaahi ʻeikitau ʻe toko uofulu ma ua.
29 And of the children of Benjamin, the brothers of Saul, three thousand; for up to that time the greater part of them had been true to Saul.
Pea ʻoe fānau ʻa Penisimani, ko e kāinga ʻo Saula, ko e toko tolu afe: he naʻe fai ʻo aʻu ki he kuonga ko ia ʻe honau tokolahi, ʻae tauhi ʻi he fale ʻo Saula.
30 And of the children of Ephraim, twenty thousand, eight hundred great men of war, men of great name in their families.
Pea ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIfalemi ko e toko ua mano mo e valungeau, ko e kau tangata mālohi mo toʻa, ko e kau ongoongo ʻi he fale ʻo ʻenau ngaahi tamai.
31 And from the half-tribe of Manasseh, eighteen thousand, listed by name, came to make David king.
Pea mei hono vahe ua ʻoe faʻahinga ʻo Manase [naʻe haʻu ]ʻae tokotaha mano mo e valungeau, ʻaia naʻe lau honau hingoa, ke haʻu ʻo fakanofo ʻa Tevita ke tuʻi.
32 And of the children of Issachar, there were two hundred chiefs, men who had expert knowledge of the times and what it was best for Israel to do, and all their brothers were under their orders.
Pea ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsaka, ʻakinautolu naʻe poto ʻi he ʻilo ʻae anga ʻoe kuonga, pea ke ʻilo ʻaia naʻe totonu ke fai ʻe ʻIsileli; ko e ngaahi ʻeiki ʻiate kinautolu ko e toko uangeau; pea naʻe tali ʻenau fekau ʻe honau kāinga kotoa pē.
33 Of Zebulun, there were fifty thousand men, who went out with the army, expert in ordering the fight, to give help with all sorts of arms; true-hearted men.
‌ʻOe fānau ʻa Sepuloni, ʻakinautolu naʻe ʻalu atu ki he tau, mo poto ʻi he tau, ʻi he ngaahi mahafutau kotoa pē, ko e toko nima mano, ʻaia naʻe faʻa tutuʻu fakataha lelei ʻi he tau: naʻe ʻikai te nau lotolotoua.
34 And of Naphtali, a thousand captains with thirty-seven thousand spearmen.
Pea ʻo Nafitali, ko e ngaahi ʻeikitau ʻe toko taha afe, pea naʻe kau mo kinautolu ʻae toko tolu mano mo e toko fitu afe naʻe toʻo ʻae pā mo e tao.
35 And of the Danites, twenty-eight thousand, six hundred, expert in ordering the fight.
Pea ʻoe faʻahinga ʻo Tani naʻe poto ʻi he tau, ko e toko ua mano, ma valu afe mo e onongeau.
36 And of Asher, forty thousand who went out with the army, expert in ordering the fight.
Pea ʻo ʻAseli, ʻakinautolu naʻe ʻalu atu ki he tau, mo poto ʻi he tau, ko e toko fā mano.
37 From the other side of Jordan, there were a hundred and twenty thousand of the Reubenites and the Gadites and the men of the half-tribe of Manasseh, armed with every sort of instrument of war.
Pea ʻi he kau vai ʻe taha ʻo Soatani, ʻoe kau Lupeni, mo e kau Kata, pea mei hono vahe ua ʻoe faʻahinga ʻo Manase, ko e tokotaha kilu mo e ua mano, naʻe toʻo ʻae ngaahi mahafutau kehekehe ʻi he tau.
38 All these men of war, expert in ordering the fight, came to Hebron with the full purpose of making David king over all Israel; and all the rest of Israel were united in their desire to make David king.
Ko e kau tangata faʻa tau eni kotoa pē, naʻe faʻa tutuʻu lelei, pea naʻa nau omi kia Tevita ʻi he loto moʻoni ki Hepeloni, ke fakanofo ʻa Tevita ke tuʻi ki ʻIsileli kātoa: pea ko hono toe foki [ʻoe kakai ]ʻi ʻIsileli naʻe loto taha pe ke fakanofo ʻa Tevita ke tuʻi.
39 For three days they were there with David, feasting at his table, for their brothers had made ready food for them.
Pea naʻa nau ʻi ai mo Tevita ʻi he ʻaho ʻe tolu, pea naʻa nau kai mo inu: he naʻe fai ʻa honau tali ʻe honau ngaahi kāinga.
40 And those who were near, as far as Issachar and Zebulun and Naphtali, came with food on asses and camels and mules and oxen, with meal for food and cakes of figs and masses of grapes, and wine and oil and oxen and sheep in great numbers, for there was joy in Israel.
Pea ʻilonga ʻae kakai naʻe vāofi mo kinautolu, kia ʻIsaka, mo Sepuloni, mo Nafitali, naʻa nau ʻomi ʻae mā kuo fakaheka ki he fanga ʻasi, pea ki he fanga kāmeli, pea ki he fanga miuli, pea ki he fanga pulu, pea [naʻe ʻomi ]mo e mangisi, ko e mahoaʻa, mo e ngaahi fiki fakamōmoa, mo e ngaahi fuhinga kālepi, mo e uaine, mo e lolo, mo e fanga pulu, mo e fanga sipi lahi ʻaupito: he naʻe lahi ʻae fakafiefia ʻi ʻIsileli.
