1 Chronicles 10
1 Now the Philistines were fighting against Israel, and the men of Israel fled from the Philistines, and they fell down wounded on mount Gilboa.
Pea ko eni, naʻe fai ʻae tau ʻe he kakai Filisitia ki ʻIsileli; pea naʻe feholaki ʻae kau tangata ʻo ʻIsileli mei he ʻao ʻoe kakai Filisitia, pea naʻa nau tō hifo ʻo lavea ʻi he moʻunga ko Kilipoa.
2 And when the Philistines had drawn near, pursuing Saul and his sons, they struck down Jonathan, and Abinadab, and Malchishua, the sons of Saul.
Pea naʻe tuli mālohi ʻe he kakai Filisitia kia Saula pea mo hono ngaahi foha; pea naʻe tāmateʻi ʻe he kakai Filisitia ʻa Sonatane, mo ʻApinatapi, mo Malikisua, ko e ngaahi foha ʻo Saula.
3 And the battle grew heavy against Saul. And the archers found him, and they wounded him with arrows.
Pea naʻe mālohi lahi ʻae tau kia Saula, pea naʻe fanaʻi ia ʻe he kau toʻo meʻa fana, pea naʻe lavea ia ʻe he kau tangata fana.
4 And Saul said to his armor bearer: “Unsheathe your sword and kill me. Otherwise, these uncircumcised men may arrive and mock me.” But his armor bearer was not willing, having been struck with fear. And so, Saul took hold of his sword, and he fell upon it.
Pea naʻe toki pehē ai ʻe Saula ki hono tangata toʻo mahafutau, “Unuhi mai hoʻo heletā, pea ke tui ʻaki au ke ʻasi; telia naʻa haʻu ʻae kau taʻekamu na mo nau manuki kiate au.” Ka naʻe ʻikai fie fai ia ʻe hono tangata toʻo mahafutau; he naʻa ne manavahē lahi. Ko ia naʻe toʻo ai ʻe Saula ha heletā, mo ne hinga atu ki ai.
5 And when his armor bearer had seen this, specifically, that Saul was dead, he now fell on his sword also, and he died.
Pea ʻi heʻene sio ʻe hono tangata toʻo mahafutau kuo mate ʻa Saula, naʻa ne hinga foki ia ki he heletā, mone mate ai.
6 Therefore, Saul died, and his three sons passed away, and his entire house fell, together.
Ko ia, naʻe mate ʻa Saula, pea mo hono ngaahi foha ʻe toko tolu, pea mate fakataha mo hono fale kotoa pē.
7 And when the men of Israel who were living in the plains had seen this, they fled. And since Saul and his sons were dead, they abandoned their cities and were dispersed, here and there. And the Philistines arrived and lived among them.
Pea ʻi heʻene sio ʻe he kau tangata ʻIsileli kotoa pē ʻakinautolu naʻe ʻi he potu talalo, ki heʻenau feholaki, pea kuo mate ʻa Saula pea mo hono ngaahi foha, naʻa nau toki liʻaki honau ngaahi kolo, mo nau hola: pea naʻe haʻu ʻae kakai Filisitia mo nofo atu ki ai.
8 Then, on the next day, when the Philistines were taking away the spoils of the slain, they found Saul and his sons, lying on mount Gilboa.
Pea ʻi heʻene hoko ki he pongipongi naʻe feholoi, ʻi heʻene ʻalu ange ʻae kakai Filisitia ke vete ʻae ngaahi kofu mei he kakai mate, naʻa nau ʻilo ʻa Saula pea mo hono ngaahi foha kuo tō hifo ʻi he moʻunga ko Kilipoa.
9 And when they had despoiled him, and had cut off his head, and had stripped his armor, they sent these things into their land, so that they would be carried around and displayed in the temples of the idols and to the people.
Pea ʻosi ʻenau fakatelefuaʻi ia, naʻa nau toʻo ʻa hono ʻulu, mo hono mahafu, mo nau fekau atu ki he fonua ʻoe kakai Filisitia ʻi he potu fulipē, ke fanongonongo hono tala ki honau ngaahi tamapua, pea mo e kakai.
10 But his armor they consecrated in the shrine of their god, and his head they affixed in the temple of Dagon.
Pea naʻa nau tuku ʻa hono mahafu ki he fale ʻo honau ngaahi ʻotua, mo nau tautau ʻa hono ʻulu ʻi he fale tapu ʻo Takoni.
11 When the men of Jabesh Gilead had heard this, specifically, all that the Philistines had done concerning Saul,
Pea ʻi heʻene ongo atu ki Sepesi-Kiliati kotoa pē ʻae meʻa kotoa pē naʻe fai kia Saula ʻe he kakai Filisitia,
12 each one of the valiant men rose up, and they took the bodies of Saul and of his sons. And they brought them to Jabesh. And they buried their bones under the oak that was in Jabesh. And they fasted for seven days.
Naʻa nau tuʻu hake, ʻae kau tangata toʻa kotoa pē, ʻonau ʻave ʻae sino ʻo Saula, mo e sino ʻo hono ngaahi foha, mo nau ʻomi ia ki Sepesi, pea naʻa nau tanu ʻa honau ngaahi hui ʻi he lolo ʻoke ʻi Sepesi, pea [naʻa nau ]ʻaukai ʻi he ʻaho ʻe fitu.
13 Thus did Saul die for his iniquities, because he betrayed the commandment of the Lord which he had instructed, and did not keep it. And moreover, he even consulted a woman diviner;
Ko ia, naʻe mate ʻa Saula koeʻuhi ko ʻene angahala ʻaia naʻa ne fai angahala ai kia Sihova, mo ʻene talangataʻa ai ki he folofola ʻa Sihova, ʻaia naʻe ʻikai te ne fai ki ai, pea koeʻuhi foki ko ʻene fakafehuʻi ki ha taha naʻe kau mo e laumālie kovi ke fakaongo ki ai:
14 for he did not trust in the Lord. Because of this, he caused his death, and he transferred his kingdom to David, the son of Jesse.
ʻO ʻikai fakaongo ia kia Sihova: ko ia naʻa ne tāmateʻi ai ia, mo ne fakafoki atu ʻae puleʻanga kia Tevita ko e foha ʻo Sese.
