< 1 Chronicles 14 >

1 Also, Hiram, the king of Tyre, sent messengers to David, and cedar wood, and artisans of walls and of wood, so that they might build a house for him.
Ka ko eni, naʻe kouna atu ʻe Helami ko e tuʻi ʻo Taia ʻae kau talafekau kia Tevita, ke [ʻave ]ʻae ngaahi taʻanga sita, mo e kau tufunga maka, mo e kau tufunga ʻakau, ke langa ha fale moʻona.
2 And David realized that the Lord had confirmed him as king over Israel, and that his kingdom had been lifted up over his people Israel.
Pea naʻe ʻilo ʻe Tevita kuo fakapapau meia Sihova ke tuʻi ia ki ʻIsileli, he naʻe hakeakiʻi ke māʻolunga ʻa hono puleʻanga, koeʻuhi ko ʻene kakai ʻIsileli.
3 Also, David took other wives in Jerusalem. And he conceived sons and daughters.
Pea naʻe toe fakatokolahi ʻe Tevita ʻa hono ngaahi uaifi ʻi Selūsalema: pea naʻe toe tupu ʻia Tevita ʻae ngaahi foha mo e ngaahi ʻofefine kehe.
4 And these are the names of those who were born to him in Jerusalem: Shammua and Shobab, Nathan and Solomon,
Ko eni ia ʻae hingoa ʻoe fānau naʻa ne maʻu ʻi Selūsalema: ko Samua, mo Sopapi, mo Natani, mo Solomone,
5 Ibhar, and Elishua, and Elpelet,
Mo Ipia, mo ʻIlisua, mo Ilifileti,
6 as well as Nogah, and Nepheg, and Japhia,
Mo Noka, mo Nefeki, mo Safia,
7 Elishama, and Beeliada, and Eliphelet.
Mo ʻIlisama, mo Peliata, mo Ilifileti.
8 Then, hearing that David had been anointed as king over all of Israel, all the Philistines ascended so that they might seek him. But when David had heard of it, he went out to meet them.
Pea ʻi he fanongo ʻe he kakai Filisitia kuo fakanofo ʻa Tevita ko e tuʻi ki ʻIsileli kātoa, naʻe ʻalu hake ʻae kakai Filisitia kotoa pē ke kumi kia Tevita. Pea naʻe fanongo ki ai ʻa Tevita, pea naʻa ne ʻalu atu ke talia ʻakinautolu.
9 Now the Philistines, arriving, spread out in the Valley of the Rephaim.
Pea naʻe haʻu ʻae kakai Filisitia mo nau fakamafola atu ʻakinautolu ʻi he potu talalo ʻo Lifemi.
10 And so David consulted the Lord, saying, “Shall I ascend to the Philistines, and will you deliver them into my hand?” And the Lord said to him, “Ascend, and I will deliver them into your hand.”
Pea naʻe fakafehuʻi ʻe Tevita ki he ʻOtua, ʻo ne pehē, “Te u ʻalu hake ke tauʻi ʻae kakai Filisitia? Pea te ke tuku mai ʻakinautolu ki hoku nima?” Pea naʻe pehē kiate ia ʻe Sihova, “Ke ke ʻalu hake; he te u tukuange ʻakinautolu ki ho nima.”
11 And when they had ascended to Baal-perazim, David struck them there, and he said: “God has divided my enemies by my hand, just as waters are divided.” And therefore the name of that place was called Baal-perazim.
Ko ia naʻa nau hoko hake ki Peali-Pilasimi; pea naʻe teʻia ʻakinautolu ʻi ai ʻe Tevita. Pea naʻe toki pehē ʻe Tevita, “Kuo pā atu ʻae ʻOtua ki hoku ngaahi fili ʻaki ʻa hoku nima ʻo hangē ko e pā atu ha ngaahi vai: ko ia naʻe ui ai ʻae potu ko ia ko Peali-Pilasimi.”
12 And they left behind their gods in that place, and so David ordered them to be burned.
Pea ʻi heʻenau tuku ʻa honau ngaahi tamapua ʻi ai, naʻe fekau ʻe Tevita, pea naʻe tutu ʻakinautolu ʻi he afi.
13 And then, at another time, the Philistines invaded, and they spread out in the valley.
Pea naʻe toe [haʻu ]ʻae kakai Filisitia ʻo fakamafola atu ʻakinautolu ʻi he potu talalo.
14 And again, David consulted God. And God said to him: “You shall not ascend after them. Draw away from them. And you shall come against them opposite the balsam trees.
Ko ia naʻe toe fehuʻi ai ʻe Tevita ki he ʻOtua; pea naʻe pehē ʻe he ʻOtua kiate ia, “ʻOua naʻa ke ʻalu hake kiate kinautolu; foki atu meiate kinautolu, pea hoko mai kiate kinautolu ʻi he potu ʻoku feʻunga tonu mo e vaoʻakau molipeli.
15 And when you hear a sound approaching in the tops of the balsam trees, then you shall go forth to war. For God has gone forth before you, so that he may strike down the army of the Philistines.”
Pea ʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻoka ke ka ongoʻi ʻae mumuhu ʻi he ʻuluʻi ʻakau molipeli, te ke toki ʻalu atu ki he tau: koeʻuhi kuo muʻomuʻa atu ʻiate koe ʻae ʻOtua ke ne teʻia ʻae tau ʻae kakai Filisitia.”
16 Therefore, David did just as God had instructed him. And he struck down the army of the Philistines, from Gibeon as far as Gazera.
Ko ia naʻe fai ʻe Tevita ʻo hangē ko ia naʻe fekau kiate ia ʻe he ʻOtua: pea naʻa nau teʻia ʻae kautau ʻoe kakai Filisitia mei Kipione ʻo aʻu atu ki Kesa.
17 And the name of David became well-known in all the regions. And the Lord placed the fear of him over all the nations.
Pea naʻe mafola atu ʻae ongoongo ʻo Tevita ki he ngaahi fonua kotoa pē; pea naʻe fakahoko ʻe Sihova ʻae manavahē kiate ia ki he ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē.
