1 Tuʻi 16

1 Naʻe toki hoko mai ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova kia Sehu ko e foha ʻo Hanani, koeʻuhi ko Paʻasa, ʻo pehē,

And the word of the Lord came by the hand of Ju son of Anani to Baasa, [saying],

2 “Koeʻuhi naʻaku hakeakiʻi koe mei he efu, ʻo ngaohi koe ko e ʻeiki ki hoku kakai ko ʻIsileli; pea kuo ke ʻalu koe ʻi he hala ʻo Selopoami, pea kuo ke fakaangahalaʻi ʻa hoku kakai ʻIsileli ke nau fakatupu ʻae houhau ʻiate au ki heʻenau ngaahi angahala;

Forasmuch as I lifted you up from the earth, and made you ruler over my people Israel; and you have walked in the way of Jeroboam, and have caused my people Israel to sin, to provoke me with their vanities;

3 Vakai, te u fetuku atu ʻae hako ʻo Paʻasa, mo e hako ʻo hono fale; pea [te u ]ngaohi ho fale ke hangē ko e fale ʻo Selopoami ko e foha ʻo Nipati.

Behold, I raise up [enemies] after Baasa, and after his house; and I will make your house as the house of Jeroboam son of Nabat.

4 Ko ia ʻia Paʻasa ʻoku mate ʻi he kolo ʻe kai ia ʻe he fanga kulī; pea ko ia ʻoku ʻaʻana ʻe mate ʻi he ngoue ʻe keina ʻe he fanga manupuna ʻoe ʻatā.”

Him that dies of Baasa in the city the dogs shall devour, and him that dies of his in the field the birds of the sky shall devour.

5 Pea ko eni ko e toe ʻoe ngaahi ngāue ʻa Paʻasa, mo ia naʻa ne fai, mo ʻene mālohi, ʻikai kuo tohi ia ʻi he tohi fakamatala ki he ngaahi tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli?

Now the rest of the history of Baasa, and all that he did, and his mighty acts, behold, are not these written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?

6 Ko ia naʻe mohe ʻa Paʻasa mo ʻene ngaahi tamai, pea naʻe fai hono putu ʻi Tilisa: pea naʻe pule ʻa Ela ko hono foha, ko hono fetongi.

And Baasa slept with his fathers, and they bury him in Thersa; and Ela his son reigns in his stead.

7 Pea naʻe ʻomi foki ʻi he nima ʻoe palōfita ko Sehu ko e foha ʻo Hanani, ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova kia Paʻasa, pea ki hono fale ʻoʻona; ʻio, ko e meʻa ʻi he kovi kotoa pē naʻa ne fai ʻe ia ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, ʻi he fakatupu ʻene houhau ki he ngāue ʻa hono nima, ko e meʻa ʻi heʻene tatau mo e fale ʻo Selopoami; pea koeʻuhi ko ʻene tāmateʻi ia.

And the Lord spoke by Ju the son of Anani against Baasa, and against his house, [even] all the evil which he wrought before the Lord to provoke him to anger by the works of his hands, in being like the house of Jeroboam; and because he struck him.

8 ʻI hono uofulu ma ono ʻoe taʻu ʻa ʻAsa ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta naʻe kamata ʻe Ela ko e foha ʻo Paʻasa ke pule ki ʻIsileli ʻi Tilisa, ʻi he taʻu ʻe ua.

And Ela son of Baasa reigned over Israel two years in Thersa.

9 Pea naʻe lapasi ia ʻe heʻene tamaioʻeiki ko Simili, ko e ʻeiki naʻe pule ki hono vahe ua mālie ʻo ʻene ngaahi saliote, lolotonga ʻa ʻene ʻi Tilisa, mo ʻene inu ke kona ʻi he fale ʻo ʻAlisa ko e tauhi ʻo hono fale ʻi Tilisa.

And Zambri, captain of half his cavalry, conspired against him, while he was in Thersa, drinking himself drunk in the house of Osa the steward at Thersa.

10 He naʻe hū atu ʻa Simili ʻo ne taaʻi ia ke ne mate, ʻi hono uofulu ma fitu ʻoe taʻu ʻa ʻAsa ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta, mo ne fetongi ia ʻi he pule.

And Zambri went in and struck him and killed him, and reigned in his stead.

11 Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi heʻene kamata pule, ʻi heʻene nofo hifo leva ki hono nofoʻa fakatuʻi, naʻa ne tāmateʻi ʻae kaungā fale kotoa pē ʻo Paʻasa: naʻe ʻikai te ne fakatoe ha tangata ʻe tokotaha kiate ia, ʻi hono kāinga moʻoni, pe ʻi hono kāinga kehe.

And it came to pass when he reigned, when he sat upon his throne,

12 naʻe pehē ʻae fakaʻauha ʻe Simili ʻae fale kotoa pē ʻo Paʻasa, ʻo hangē ko e folofola ʻa Sihova, ʻaia naʻa ne folofolaʻaki kia Paʻasa ʻia Sehu, ko e palōfita,

that he struck all the house of Baasa, according to the word which the Lord spoke against the house of Baasa, and to Ju the prophet,

13 Koeʻuhi ko e angahala kotoa pē ʻa Paʻasa, mo e angahala ʻa Ela ko hono foha, ʻaia naʻa na halaia ai, mo na fakaangahala ai ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻi he fakatupu ʻae houhau ʻa Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli ki heʻenau ngaahi meʻa vaʻinga.

for all the sins of Baasa and Ela his son, as he led Israel astray to sin, to provoke the Lord God of Israel with their vanities.

14 Pea ko eni ko e toe ʻoe ngaahi ngāue ʻa Ela, mo ia kotoa pē naʻa ne fai, ʻikai kuo tohi ia ʻi he tohi fakamatala ki he ngaahi tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli?

And the rest of the deeds of Ela which he did, behold, are not these written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?

15 ʻI hono uofulu ma fitu ʻoe taʻu ʻa ʻAsa ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta naʻe pule ʻa Simili ʻi he ʻaho ʻe fitu ʻi Tilisa. Pea naʻe nofo ʻapitanga ʻae kakai ke tauʻi ʻa Kipitoni, ʻaia naʻe ʻoe kakai Filisitia.

And Zambri reigned in Thersa seven days: and the army of Israel [was] encamped against Gabathon of the Philistines.

16 Pea naʻe fanongo ʻe he kakai ʻi he ʻapitanga, ki he talanoa, ʻo pehē, Kuo fai ʻae lapa ʻe Simili, pea kuo ne tāmateʻi foki ʻae tuʻi: ko ia naʻe fai ʻe ʻIsileli kātoa ke fakanofo ʻa Omili, ko e ʻeiki pule ʻoe kautau, ke ne tuʻi ki ʻIsileli ʻi he ʻaho ko ia ʻi he ʻapitanga.

And the people heard in the army, saying, Zambri has conspired and struck the king: and the people of Israel made Ambri the captain of the host king in that day in the camp over Israel.

17 Pea naʻe ʻalu hake ʻa Omili mei Kipitoni ʻaia mo ʻIsileli kātoa mo ia, pea naʻa nau kāpui ʻa Tilisa ʻaki ʻae tau.

And Ambri went up, and all Israel with him, out of Gabathon; and they besieged Thersa.

18 Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi heʻene mamata ʻe Simili kuo kapa ʻae kolo, naʻa ne hū atu ki he potu māʻolunga ʻoe fale ʻoe tuʻi, pea naʻa ne tungia ʻae fale ʻoe tuʻi, pea ne mate ai,

And it came to pass when Zambri saw that his city was taken, that he goes into the inner chamber of the house of the king, and burnt the king's house over him, and died.

19 Ko e meʻa ʻi heʻene ngaahi angahala ʻaia naʻa ne fai hala ai mo fai kovi ai ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, mo ne ʻalu ʻi he hala ʻo Selopoami, pea ʻi heʻene angahala ʻaʻana ʻaia naʻa ne fai ke ne fakaangahalaʻi ʻa ʻIsileli.

Because of his sins which he committed, doing that which was evil in the sight of the Lord, so as to walk in the way of Jeroboam the son of Nabat, and in his sins wherein he caused Israel to sin.

20 Pea ko eni ko e toe ʻoe ngaahi ngāue ʻa Simili, pea mo ʻene angatuʻu ʻaia naʻa ne fai, ʻikai kuo tohi ia ʻi he tohi fakamatala ki he ngaahi tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli?

And the rest of the history of Zambri, and his conspiracies wherein he conspired, behold, are not these written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?

21 Pea naʻe vahe ua ʻae kakai ʻIsileli: ko hono vahe ʻe taha ʻoe kakai naʻe muimui kia Tipini ko e foha ʻo Kinati, ke fakanofo ia ko e tuʻi; ka ko hono vahe ʻe taha naʻe muimui kia Omili.

Then the people of Israel divides; half the people goes after Thamni the son of Gonath to make him king; and half the people goes after Ambri.

22 Ka naʻe mālohi hake ʻae kakai naʻe muimui kia Omili ki he kakai naʻe muimui kia Tipini ko e foha ʻo Kinati: pea naʻe mate ʻa Tipini kae pule ʻa Omili.

The people that followed Ambri overpowered the people that followed Thamni son of Gonath; and Thamni died and Joram his brother at that time, and Ambri reigned after Thamni.

23 ʻI hono tolungofulu ma taha ʻoe taʻu ʻa ʻAsa ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta naʻe kamata ʻae pule ʻa Omili ki ʻIsileli, ʻi he taʻu ʻe hongofulu ma ua: naʻe pule ia ʻi he taʻu ʻe ono ʻe Tilisa.

In the thirty-first year of king Asa, Ambri begins to reign over Israel twelve years: he reigns six years in Thersa.

24 Pea naʻa ne fakatau ʻae moʻunga ʻo Samēlia meia Semeli ʻaki ʻae taleniti ʻe ua ʻoe siliva, pea naʻa ne fai ʻae langa ʻi he moʻunga, ʻo ne fakahingoa ʻae kolo naʻa ne langa, ki he hingoa ʻo Semeli ʻaia naʻe ʻoʻona ʻae moʻunga, ko Samēlia.

And Ambri bought the mount Semeron of Semer the lord of the mountain for two talents of silver; and he built [upon] the mountain, and they called the name of the mountain [on] which he built, after the name of Semer the lord of the mount, Semeron.

25 Ka naʻe fai kovi ʻa Omili ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, ʻo ne fai ʻo kovi lahi hake ʻiate kinautolu kotoa pē naʻe muʻa ʻiate ia.

And Ambri did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord, and wrought wickedly beyond all that were before him.

26 He naʻa ne ʻalu ʻi he hala ʻo Selopoami ko e foha ʻo Nipati, pea ki heʻene angahala ʻaʻana ʻaia naʻa ne fakaangahala ai ʻa ʻIsileli, ke fakatupu ai ʻae houhau ʻa Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli ʻi heʻenau ngaahi meʻa vaʻinga.

And he walked in all the way of Jeroboam the son of Nabat, and in his sins wherewith he caused Israel to sin, to provoke the Lord God of Israel by their vanities.

27 Pea ko eni ko e toe ʻoe ngaahi ngāue ʻa Omili ʻaia naʻa ne fai, mo ʻene mālohi naʻa ne fakahā, ʻikai kuo tohi ia ʻi he tohi fakamatala ki he ngaahi tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli?

And the rest of the acts of Ambri, and all that he did, and all his might, behold, [are] not these things written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?

28 Pea pehē, naʻe mohe ʻa Omili mo ʻene ngaahi tamai, pea naʻe fai hono putu ʻi Samēlia: pea naʻe pule ʻa ʻEhapi ko hono foha, ko hono fetongi.

And Ambri slept with his fathers, and is buried in Samaria; and Achaab his son reigns in his stead.

29 Pea ʻi hono tolungofulu ma valu ʻoe taʻu ʻa ʻAsa ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta, naʻe kamata pule ki ʻIsileli ʻa ʻEhapi ko e foha ʻo Omili: pea naʻe pule ʻa ʻEhapi ko e foha ʻo Omili ki ʻIsileli, ʻi Samēlia, ʻi he taʻu ʻe uofulu ma ua.

In the second year of Josaphat king of Juda, Achaab son of Ambri reigned over Israel in Samaria twenty-two years.

30 Pea naʻe fai kovi ʻa ʻEhapi ko e foha ʻo Omili ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova ʻo lahi hake ʻiate kinautolu kotoa pē naʻe muʻa ʻiate ia.

And Achaab did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord, and did more wickedly than all that were before him.

31 Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, hangē ko e meʻa maʻamaʻa ia ʻa ʻene ʻalu ʻi he ngaahi angahala ʻa Selopoami ko e foha ʻo Nipati, he naʻa ne fili mai ke mali mo ia ʻa Sisipeli, ko e ʻofefine ʻo ʻEtipeali ko e tuʻi ʻoe kakai Saitoni, ʻo ne ʻalu ʻo tauhi kia Peali, ʻo ne lotu ki ai.

And it was not enough for him to walk in the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nabat, but he took as wife, Jezabel the daughter of Jethebaal king of the Sidonians; and he went and served Baal, and worshipped him.

32 Pea naʻa ne fokotuʻu hake ha feilaulauʻanga kia Peali ʻi he fale ʻo Peali ʻaia naʻa ne langa hake ʻi Samēlia.

And he set up an altar to Baal, in the house of his abominations, which he built in Samaria.

33 Pea naʻe ngaohi ʻe ʻEhapi ha vao tapu; pea naʻe lahi hake ʻae meʻa naʻe fai ʻe ʻEhapi ke fakatupu ʻae houhau ʻa Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli [ʻi he meʻa naʻe fai ]ʻe he ngaahi tuʻi kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli naʻe ʻi muʻa ʻiate ia.

And Achaab made a grove; and Achaab did yet more abominably, to provoke the Lord God of Israel, and [to sin against] his own life so that he should be destroyed: he did evil above all the kings of Israel that were before him.

34 ‌ʻI hono ngaahi ʻaho ʻoʻona naʻe langa hake ʻa Seliko ʻe Ieli ko e tangata Peteli: naʻa ne ʻai hono tuʻunga kae mate ʻa ʻApilami ko hono ʻuluaki fānau, pea naʻa ne fokotuʻu ʻa hono ngaahi matapā kae mate ʻa hono foha ki mui ko Sikupi, ʻo hangē ko e folofola ʻa Sihova, ʻaia naʻa ne folofolaʻaki ʻia Siosiua ko e foha ʻo Nuni.

And in his days Achiel the Baethelite built Jericho: he laid the foundation of it in Abiron his firstborn, and he set up the doors of it in Segub his younger son, according to the word of the Lord which he spoke by Joshua the son of Naue.
