1 Chronicles 11
1 Then all Israel came together to David at Hebron, and said, Truly, we are your bone and your flesh.
Hili ia naʻe fakataha ʻa ʻIsileli kotoa kia Tevita ki Hepeloni, mo nau pehē, “Vakai, ko ho hui ʻoʻou ʻakimautolu mo ho kakano ʻoʻou.
2 In the past, when Saul was king, it was you who went at the head of Israel when they went out or came in; and the Lord your God said to you, You are to be the keeper of my people Israel, and their ruler.
Kaeʻumaʻā foki ʻae ngaahi ʻaho kuo hili ange, ʻio, lolotonga ʻae kei tuʻi ʻa Saula, ko koe ia naʻe taki atu mo toe ʻomi ʻa ʻIsileli: pea naʻe pehē kiate koe ʻe Sihova ko ho ʻOtua, ‘Te ke fafanga ʻe koe ʻa hoku kakai ʻIsileli, pea te ke pule ʻe koe ki hoku kakai ʻIsileli.’”
3 So all the responsible men of Israel came to the king at Hebron; and David made an agreement with them in Hebron before the Lord; and they put the holy oil on David and made him king over Israel, as the Lord had said by Samuel.
Ko ia naʻe fakataha ai ʻae kau mātuʻa kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli ki he tuʻi ki Hepeloni; pea naʻe fai ʻe Tevita ha fuakava mo kinautolu ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova ʻi Hepeloni, pea naʻa nau pani ʻa Tevita ʻaki ʻae lolo ke ne tuʻi ki ʻIsileli, ʻo fakatatau mo e folofola ʻa Sihova ʻia Samuela.
4 Then David and all Israel went to Jerusalem (which is Jebus); and the Jebusites, the people of the land, were there.
Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻa Tevita mo ʻIsileli kotoa pē ki Selūsalema, ʻa ia [ʻoku ui ]ko Sepusi; ko e potu naʻe nofo ai ʻae kakai Sepusi, ko e kakai ʻoe fonua.
5 And the people of Jebus said to David, You will not come in here. But still, David took the strong place of Zion, which is the town of David.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he kakai ʻo Sepusi kia Tevita, “ʻE ʻikai te ke hoko mai ki heni.” Ka neongo ia naʻe kapasia ʻe Tevita ʻae kolotau ʻo Saione, ʻa ia [ʻoku ui ]ko e “Kolo ʻo Tevita.”
6 And David said, The first to overcome the Jebusites will be chief and captain. And Joab, the son of Zeruiah, went up first, and became chief.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Tevita, “Ko ia ʻe tomuʻa teʻia ʻae kakai Sepusi, ʻe hoko ia ko e tuʻukimuʻa mo e ʻeiki pule.” Pea pehē, naʻe tomuʻa hoko hake ʻa Soape ko e tama ʻo Seluia, pea naʻe hoko ai ia ko e ʻeiki pule.
7 And David took the strong tower for his living-place, so it was named the town of David.
Pea naʻe nofo ʻa Tevita ki he kolotau; pea ko ia naʻe ui ai ia ko e Kolo ʻo Tevita.
8 And he took in hand the building of the town all round, starting from the Millo; and Joab put the rest of the town in order.
Pea naʻa ne langa hake ʻae kolo ʻo takatakai hake, ʻio, mei Milo ʻo tākai hake: pea naʻe toe langa foʻou ʻe Soape ʻa hono toe ʻoe kolo.
9 And David became greater and greater in power, because the Lord of armies was with him.
Naʻe pehē ʻae fakaʻaʻau ʻa Tevita ke lahi mo lahi hake ʻaupito: he naʻe kau kiate ia ʻa Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau.
10 Now these are the chief of David's men of war who were his strong supporters in the kingdom, and, with all Israel, made him king, as the Lord had said about Israel.
Ko kinautolu eni foki ʻae kau tuʻukimuʻa ʻi he kau tangata mālohi lahi ʻaia naʻe maʻu ʻe Tevita, ʻakinautolu naʻe kau mālohi mo ia ʻi hono puleʻanga, pea mo ʻIsileli kātoa, koeʻuhi ke ne hoko ko e tuʻi, ʻo fakatatau mo e folofola ʻa Sihova ʻaia naʻe kau ki ʻIsileli.
11 This is the list of David's men of war: Ishbaal, the son of a Hachmonite, the chief of the three: he put to death three hundred at one time with his spear.
Pea ko eni ʻa hono lau hake ʻoe kau tangata mālohi lahi naʻe maʻu ʻe Tevita: ko Sasopiami ko e tangata ʻAkimoni, ko e tuʻukimuʻa ʻi he ngaahi ʻeikitau: naʻa ne hiki hake ia ʻa hono tao ke tauʻi ʻae “Toko Tolungeau” naʻe tāmate ʻe ia ʻi he ʻaho pe taha.
12 And after him was Eleazar, the son of Dodo the Ahohite, who was one of the three great fighters.
Pea naʻe hoko mo ia ʻa ʻEliesa ko e foha ʻo Toto, ko e tangata ʻAhoi, ʻaia ko e taha ia ʻi he “Toko Tolu” naʻe mālohi lahi.
13 He was with David at Pas-dammim, where the Philistines had come together for the fight, near a bit of land full of barley; and the people went in flight before the Philistines.
Naʻe ʻia Tevita ia ʻi Pasi-Tamemi, pea naʻe fakataha ʻi ai ʻae kakai Filisitia ki he tau, pea naʻe ʻi ai ʻae potu ngoue naʻe fonu ʻi he paʻale; pea naʻe feholaki ʻae kakai mei he ʻao ʻoe kau Filisitia.
14 And he took up his position in the middle of the bit of land, and kept back their attack, and overcame the Philistines; and the Lord gave a great salvation.
Pea naʻa nau malumu ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe potu fonua ko ia, mo nau fakahaofi ia, mo tāmateʻi ʻae kakai Filisitia; pea naʻe fakamoʻui ʻakinautolu ʻe Sihova ʻi he fakamoʻui lahi.
15 And three of the thirty went down to David, to the rock, into the strong place of Adullam; and the army of the Philistines had taken up their position in the valley of Rephaim.
Pea ko eni, naʻe ʻalu hifo ki he maka kia Tevita ʻi he ʻanaʻi maka ko ʻAtulami ʻae toko tolu ʻoe ngaahi ʻeikitau ʻe toko tolungofulu; ka naʻe nofo ʻae kautau ʻoe kakai Filisitia ki he potu talalo ʻo Lefeimi.
16 At that time David had taken cover in the strong place, and an armed force of the Philistines was in Beth-lehem.
Pea ko e kuonga ia naʻe nofo ai ʻa Tevita ki he kolo mālohi, pea ko e kolotau ʻoe kakai Filisitia naʻe ʻi Petelihema ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ko ia.
17 And David, moved by a strong desire, said, If only someone would give me a drink of the water from the water-hole of Beth-lehem by the doorway into the town!
Pea naʻe holi feinga pe ʻa Tevita, ʻo ne pehē, “Taumaiā ke ʻomi ʻe ha tokotaha kiate au haʻaku inu mei he vai ʻoe vaikeli ʻi Petelihema, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he veʻematapā!”
18 So the three, forcing a way through the Philistine army, got water from the water-hole of Beth-lehem, by the doorway into the town, and took it back to David; but David would not take it, but made an offering of it, draining it out to the Lord,
Pea naʻe ʻasi atu ʻe he toko tolu ko ia ʻi he kautau ʻoe kakai Filisitia, mo nau ʻutu hake ʻae vai mei he vaikeli ʻo Petelihema, ʻaia naʻe ʻi he veʻematapā, pea naʻa nau toʻo ʻo ʻomi ia kia Tevita: ka naʻe ʻikai siʻi inu ia ʻe Tevita, ka naʻa ne lilingi atu ia kia Sihova,
19 Saying, By my God, far be it from me to do this! How may I take as drink the life-blood of these men who have put their lives in danger? so he did not take it. These things did the three great men of war.
Pea ne pehē ʻe ia, “Ke taʻofi au ʻe hoku ʻOtua, ke ʻoua naʻaku fai ha meʻa pehē: he te u inu koā ʻae toto ʻoe kau tangata ni, ʻakinautolu kuo fakatuʻutāmaki ʻenau moʻui?” He ko ʻenau moʻui pe naʻe ʻomi ai ia. Ko ia naʻe ʻikai siʻi te ne inu mei ai. Ko e ngaahi meʻa eni naʻe fai ʻekinautolu ni ko e “Toko Tolu” naʻe mālohi lahi hake.
20 And Abishai, the brother of Joab, was chief of the thirty, for he put to death three hundred with his spear, but he had not a name among the three.
Pea ko ʻApisai ko e tokoua ʻo Soape, naʻe ʻeiki hake ia ʻi he “Toko Tolu:” he naʻa ne hiki hake ʻa hono tao ke tauʻi ʻae toko tolungeau, mo ne tāmateʻi ʻakinautolu, pea naʻe lau hono hingoa mo e “Toko Tolu.”
21 Of the thirty, he was the noblest, and was made their captain, but he was not equal to the first three.
ʻI he “Toko Tolu,” naʻe ongoongo hake ia ʻi he toko ua; he ko hona ʻeiki ia: ka neongo ia naʻe ʻikai ke hoko hake ia ki he [ʻuluaki ]“Toko Tolu.”
22 Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, a fighting-man of Kabzeel, had done great acts; he put to death two young lions going into their secret place; and he went down into a hole and put a lion to death in time of snow.
Ko Penaia ko e foha ʻa Sihoiata, ko e foha ʻoe tangata toʻa mei Kapisieli, ʻaia naʻe ongoongo ʻa ʻene ngaahi meʻa ne fai; naʻa ne tāmateʻi ʻe ia ʻae ongo tangata Moape naʻe anga fakalaione: pea naʻa ne ʻalu hifo ki ha luo ʻo ne tāmate ai ha laione ʻi he ʻaho naʻe tō ai ʻae ʻuha hinehina.
23 And he made an attack on an Egyptian, a very tall man about five cubits high, armed with a spear like a cloth-worker's rod; he went down to him with a stick, and pulling his spear out of the hand of the Egyptian, put him to death with that same spear.
Pea naʻa ne tāmateʻi ha tangata ʻIsipite, ko e tangata naʻe fuʻu sino ʻaupito, ko e hanga ʻe hongofulu ʻa hono māʻolunga; pea naʻe toʻo ʻe he tangata ʻIsipite ʻi hono nima ha tao naʻe hangē ko e ʻakau ʻoe tangata lalanga tupenu; pea naʻa ne ʻalu hifo kiate ia mo e tokotoko pe mone hamusi mai ʻae tao mei he nima ʻoe tangata ʻIsipite, ʻo ne tāmateʻi ia ʻaki ʻa ʻene tao ʻaʻana.
24 These were the acts of Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, who had a great name among the thirty men of war.
Ko e ngaahi meʻa eni naʻe fai ʻe Penaia ko e foha ʻo Sihoiata, pea naʻe lau hono hingoa fakataha mo e toko tolu mālohi.
25 He was honoured over the thirty, but he was not equal to the first three: and David put him over his servants.
Vakai, naʻe ongoongo ia ʻi he toko tolungofulu, ka naʻe ʻikai hoko hake ia ki he [ʻuluaki ]“Toko Tolu:” pea naʻe tuku ia ʻe Tevita ke pule ki hono kau tangata leʻo.
26 And these were the great men of war: Asahel, the brother of Joab, Elhanan, the son of Dodo of Beth-lehem,
