1 Samoela 26
1 Ary ny Zifita tonga tao amin’ i Saoly tany Gibea ka nanao hoe: Tsy miery any amin’ ny havoana Hakila manandrify ny efitra va Davida?
Pea naʻe haʻu ʻae kau tangata Sifi kia Saula ki Kipea, ʻonau pehē, ʻIkai ʻoku toitoi ʻa Tevita ʻi he moʻunga ʻo Hakila ʻaia ʻoku hanga ki Sesimoni?
2 Dia niainga Saoly nidina nankany an-efitr’ i Zifa, nitondra telo arivo lahy voafantina tamin’ ny Isiraely hanaraka azy hitady an’ i Davida any an-efitr’ i Zifa.
Pea naʻe ʻalu atu ʻa Saula ʻo ne hifo ki he toafa ʻo Sifi, naʻe ʻiate ia ʻae kau tangata ʻe toko tolu afe naʻe fili mei ʻIsileli, kenau kumi ʻa Tevita ʻi he toafa ʻo Sifi.
3 Ary nitoby tao amin’ ny havoana Hakila manandrify ny efitra teo amoron-dalana izy. Fa Davida kosa nitoetra tany an-efitra, ary hitany fa tonga nanaraka azy tany an-efitra Saoly.
Pea naʻe ʻapitanga ʻa Saula ʻi he moʻunga ʻo Hakila, ʻaia ʻoku hanga ki Sesimoni, ʻi he veʻehala. Ka naʻe nofo ʻa Tevita ʻi he toafa, ʻo ne vakai mei ai ʻae haʻu ʻa Saula ke kumi ia ʻi he toafa.
4 Dia naniraka mpisafo Davida, ka fantany fa tonga tokoa Saoly.
Ko ia naʻe fekau ai ʻe Tevita ʻae kau mataki, ʻo ne ʻilo kuo haʻu moʻoni ʻa Saula.
5 Dia niainga Davida ka tonga teo amin’ ny nitobian’ i Saoly; ary hitan’ i Davida izay nandrian’ i Saoly sy Abnera, zanak’ i Nera, komandin’ ny miaramilany; fa Saoly nandry teo anatin’ ny sehatra-sariety, sady nitoby nanodidina azy ny vahoaka.
Pea naʻe tuʻu hake ʻa Tevita, ʻo ne haʻu ki he potu ʻaia naʻe nofo ʻapitanga ai ʻa Saula: pea naʻe vakai ʻe Tevita ki he potu naʻe tokoto ai ʻa Saula mo ʻApina ko e foha ʻo Nea, ko e ʻeiki ʻoe tau: pea naʻe tokoto ʻa Saula ʻi heʻene saliote, pea naʻe nofo takatakai ʻa ʻene kakai kiate ia.
6 Ary hoy Davida tamin’ i Ahimeleka Hetita sy Abisay, zanak’ i Zeroia, rahalahin’ i Joaba; Iza no hidina hiaraka amiko ho any amin’ i Saoly any an-toby? Dia hoy Abisay: Izaho hidina hiaraka aminao.
Pea naʻe lea ʻa Tevita ʻo pehē kia ʻAhimeleki ko e tangata Heti, mo ʻApisai ko e tama ʻa Seluia, ko e tokoua ʻo Soape, ʻo pehē, “Ko hai ʻe ʻalu hifo mo au kia Saula ki he ʻapitanga?” Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ʻApisai, “Ta ō hifo mo koe.”
7 Ary tonga tao amin’ ny vahoaka Davida sy Abisay nony alina; ary, indro, Saoly nandry ka natory teo anatin’ ny sehatra-sariety, ary ny lefony nitsatoka amin’ ny tany teo anilan’ ny lohany; fa Abnera sy ny vahoaka nandry manodidina azy.
Ko ia naʻe hoko ai ʻa Tevita mo ʻApisai ki he kakai ʻi he poʻuli: pea vakai, naʻe tokoto ʻo mohe ʻa Saula ʻi heʻene saliote, pea naʻe velo hono tao ki he kelekele ʻi hono ʻolunga: pea naʻe tokoto ʻa ʻApina mo e kakai ʻo takatakai ʻiate ia.
8 Ary hoy Abisay tamin’ i Davida: Efa voahidin’ Andriamanitra eo an-tananao ny fahavalonao izao; koa, masìna ianao, aoka holefoniko indray mandeha monja hataoko miboroaka amin’ ny tany izy, fa tsy hamely azy indroa akory aho.
Pea naʻe pehē ai ʻe ʻApisai kia Tevita, “Kuo tuku ʻe he ʻOtua ʻa ho fili ki ho nima he ʻaho ni: pea ko eni ʻoku ou kole kiate koe, tuku ke u veloʻi leva ia ʻaki ʻae tao ki he kelekele, pea ʻe ʻikai te u veloʻi ia ke liunga ua.”
9 Fa hoy Davida tamin’ i Abisay: Aza mamono azy; fa iza no maninjitra ny tànany tamin’ ny voahosotr’ i Jehovah ka tsy nanan-tsiny?
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Tevita kia ʻApisai, “ʻOua naʻa tāmateʻi ia: he ko hai ʻe mafao atu hono nima ki he fakatapui ʻa Sihova pea taʻeangahala ia?”
10 Ary hoy koa Davida: Raha velona koa Jehovah, dia aoka Jehovah no hamely azy; na ho tonga ny androny, ka ho faty izy; na hirotsaka ho amin’ ny ady izy, ka any no hahafaty azy.
Pea naʻe lea foki ʻa Tevita, “ʻOku moʻui ʻa Sihova pea ʻe taaʻi ia ʻe Sihova pea ʻe hokosia hono ʻaho ke mate ai pē te ne ʻalu ki ha tau, pea mate ai.
11 Sanatria amiko eo anatrehan’ i Jehovah, raha haninjitra ny tanako hamely ny voahosotr’ i Jehovah aho; fa masìna ianao, ny lefona eo anilan’ ny lohany sy ny tavoara fitondran-drano no alao, dia andeha isika handeha.
Ke taʻofi au ʻe Sihova ke ʻoua naʻaku mafao hoku nima ki he fakatapui ʻa Sihova: ka ʻoku ou kole kiate koe, ke ke toʻo ni ʻae tao ʻoku ʻi hono ʻolunga, pea mo e ipu vai, pea ke ta ō.”
12 Dia nalain’ i Davida ny lefona sy ny tavoara izay teo anilan’ ny lohan’ i Saoly ka dia lasa izy, ary tsy nisy olona nahita, na nahalala, na nahatsiaro; fa natory izy rehetra, satria nataon’ i Jehovah renoky ny torimaso izy.
Ko ia naʻe toʻo ai ʻe Tevita ʻae tao mo e ipu vai mei he ʻolunga ʻo Saula: pea ne na hiki, ʻo na ō, pea naʻe ʻikai mamata ki ai ha tangata ʻe tokotaha, pe ʻilo ia, pe ʻā ai: he kuo nau mohe kotoa pē; koeʻuhi kuo tō kiate kinautolu ʻae mohe maʻu meia Sihova.
13 Dia nita nankeny an-dafin-tsaha Davida ka nijanona teo an-tampon’ ny tendrombohitra lavidavitra (lavidavitra ihany ny elanelan’ izy roa tonta);
Pea naʻe ʻalu ai ʻa Tevita ʻo laka ki he potu ʻe taha, pea tuʻu ia ki he tumutumu ʻoe moʻunga ʻo mamaʻo ai; ko e ʻataʻatā lahi naʻe ʻi hona vahaʻa:
14 ary Davida niantso ny olona sy Abnera, zanak’ i Nera, hoe: Tsy mamaly va ianao, ry Abnera? Ary Abnera dia namaly hoe: Iza moa ianao, no miantso ho re eto anatrehan’ ny mpanjaka?
Pea naʻe ui ʻe Tevita ki he kakai, pea kia ʻApina ko e foha ʻo Nea, ʻo pehē, “ʻApina ʻoku ʻikai te ke lea?” Pea naʻe lea ai ʻa ʻApina, ʻo pehē, “Ko hai koe ʻoku ke ui ki he tuʻi?”
15 Ary hoy Davida tamin’ i Abnera: Tsy lehilahy mahery va ianao, ary iza no tahaka anao amin’ ny Isiraely? Koa nahoana ianao no tsy miambina ny mpanjaka tomponao? fa nisy anankiray tamin’ ny olona tonga teo hamono ny mpanjaka tomponao.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Tevita kia ʻApina, “ʻIkai ko e tangata koe? Pea ko hai ʻoku hangē ko koe ʻi ʻIsileli? Pea ko e hā ʻoku ʻikai te ke maluʻi ai hoʻo ʻeiki ko e tuʻi? He naʻe ʻalu atu ha tokotaha mei he kakai ke taaʻi ʻae tuʻi ko ho ʻeiki.
16 Tsy mety izany nataonao izany. Raha velona koa Jehovah, dia tokony ho faty ianareo, satria tsy miambina ny tomponareo, ilay voahosotr’ i Jehovah Ary izahao ange, fa aiza moa ny lefon’ ny mpanjaka sy ny tavoara fitondran-drano teo anilan’ ny lohany?
Ko e meʻa kuo ke fai ʻoku ʻikai lelei. Hangē ʻoku moʻui ʻa Sihova, ʻoku totonu ke mou mate tāmateʻi, koeʻuhi naʻe ʻikai te mou leʻohi homou ʻeiki ko e fakatapui ʻe Sihova. Pea ko eni, vakai, kuo ʻi fē ʻae tao ʻoe tuʻi mo e ipu vai naʻe ʻi hono ʻolunga.”
17 Ary fantatr’ i Saoly ny feon’ i Davida ka hoy izy: Feonao moa izany, ry Davida zanako? Ary hoy Davida: Feoko tokoa, ry mpanjaka tompoko.
Pea naʻe ʻilo ʻe Saula ʻae leʻo ʻo Tevita, ʻo ne pehē, “He ko ho leʻo ʻena, ʻa hoku foha ko Tevita?” Pea pehē ʻe Tevita, “Ko hoku leʻo ia, ʻE tuʻi ko hoku ʻeiki.”
18 Ary hoy koa izy: Nahoana ny tompoko no manenjika ny mpanompony? Inona no nataoko, ary inona no ratsy amin’ ny tanako?
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “Ko e hā ʻoku tuli pehē ai ʻe hoku ʻeiki ki hoʻo tamaioʻeiki? He ko e hā ia naʻaku fai? Pe ko e hā ha kovi ʻoku ʻi hoku nima?
19 Ary ankehitriny masìna ianao, ry mpanjaka tompoko, mihainoa ny tenin’ ny mpanomponao. Raha Jehovah no nanesika anao hamely ahy, dia aoka handray fanatitra mani-pofona Izy; fa raha zanak’ olona kosa, dia aoka ho voaozona eo anatrehan’ i Jehovah izy, satria efa nandroaka ahy androany tsy hanana anjara amin’ ny lova nomen’ i Jehovah izy ka nanao hoe: Mandehana, manompoa andriamani-kafa.
Pea ko eni, ʻOku ou kole kiate koe, ke fanongo ʻe hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi ki he lea ʻa hoʻo tamaioʻeiki. Kapau kuo langaʻi koe ʻe Sihova ke tauʻi au, tuku ke ne maʻu mālie ha feilaulau: pea kapau ʻoku mei he fānau ʻae tangata, ke malaʻia ʻakinautolu ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova; he kuo nau kapusi au he ʻaho ni, ke ʻoua naʻaku nofo ʻi he tofiʻa ʻo Sihova, ʻonau pehē, ‘ʻAlu ʻo tauhi ʻae ngaahi ʻotua kehe.’
20 Koa aza avela ho latsaka amin’ ny tany lavitra an’ i Jehovah ny rako; fa ny mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely nivoaka nitady parasy iray, tahaka ny manenjika tsipoy eny an-tendrombohitra.
Pea ko eni, ke ʻoua naʻa tafe hoku toto ki he kelekele ʻi he ʻao ʻae fofonga ʻo Sihova: he kuo haʻu kituaʻā ʻae tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli ke kumi ʻae kutufisi, ʻo hangē ha tokotaha ʻoku tuli ʻae veka ʻi he ngaahi moʻunga.”
21 Ary hoy Saoly: Efa nanota aho: miverena, ry Davida zanako, fa tsy hanisy ratsy anao intsony aho, fa soa teo imasonao ny aiko androany; indro, efa nanao adala aho ka diso indrindra.
Pea pehē ai ʻe Saula, “Kuo u fai angahala: ʻe hoku foha ko Tevita, tafoki mai: ʻe ʻikai te u toe fai ha kovi kiate koe, koeʻuhi naʻe maʻongoʻonga ʻa hoku laumālie ʻi ho ʻao he ʻaho ni: vakai, kuo u fai ʻae anga fakavalevale, pea kuo u hē lahi ʻaupito.”
22 Ary Davida namaly hoe: Indro ny lefon’ ny mpanjaka! koa asaovy misy zatovo anankiray mankety haka azy.
Pea naʻe tali ʻe Tevita ʻo pehē, “Vakai, ko e tao ʻoe tuʻi! Pea ke haʻu ha tokotaha ʻoe kau talavou ʻo ʻatu ia.
23 Ny lehilahy izay nanoloran’ i Jehovah anao teo an-tànany androany dia hovaliany araka ny fahitsiany sy ny fahamarinany, fa tsy nety naninjitra ny tanako hamely ny voahosotr’ i Jehovah aho.
Ke ʻatu ʻe Sihova ki he tangata kotoa pē ʻo hangē ko ʻene māʻoniʻoni mo ʻene angatonu: he naʻe tuku mai koe ʻe Sihova ki hoku nima he ʻaho ni, ka naʻe ʻikai te u loto ke mafao atu hoku nima ke taaʻi ʻae fakatapui ʻe Sihova.
24 Ary, indro, fa tahaka ny nanaovako ny aina ho lehibe androany no mba hanaovan’ i Jehovah ny aiko ho lehibe kosa ka hanafahany ahy amin’ ny fahoriana rehetra.
Pea vakai, hangē naʻe mahuʻinga lahi hoʻo moʻui he ʻaho ni ʻi hoku mata, ʻofa ke mahuʻinga pehē ʻeku moʻui ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, pea ke fakamoʻui ʻe ia au mei he ngaahi mamahi kotoa pē.”
25 Ary hoy Saoly tamin’ i Davida: Hotahina anie ianao, ry Davida zanako; hanao dia hanao ianao sady hahatontosa. Dia lasa Davida, fa Saoly kosa nitodi-doha hiverina.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Saula kia Tevita, “ʻE hoku foha ko Tevita: ke monūʻia pe koe, he te ke fai pe ʻe koe ʻae ngaahi meʻa lahi, pea ke ikuna foki.” Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻa Tevita ʻi hono hala, pea liu atu ʻa Saula ki hono potu.
