1 Chronicles 5

1 Also, there were the sons of Reuben, the firstborn of Israel. For indeed, he was his firstborn, but when he had violated the bed of his father, his right as firstborn was given to the sons of Joseph, the son of Israel, and he was not reputed as firstborn.

Ko eni ko e ngaahi foha ʻo Lupeni, ko e ʻuluaki fānau kia ʻIsileli, (he ko e ʻuluaki fānau ia; ka ko e meʻa ʻi heʻene fakaʻuliʻi ʻae mohenga ʻo ʻene tamai, ko ia naʻe foaki ai ʻae ʻinasi ʻoe ʻuluaki fānau ki he ngaahi foha ʻo Sosefa ko e foha ʻo ʻIsileli: pea ʻoku ʻikai lau ʻae hohoko ʻo fai mei he ʻuluaki fānau.

2 Moreover, Judah, who was strongest among his brothers, from his stock leaders sprung up, but the right of firstborn was reputed to Joseph.

He naʻe mālohi hake ʻa Siuta ki hono ngaahi tokoua, pea naʻe meiate ia ʻae ʻeiki pule, ka ko e ʻinasi ʻoe ʻuluaki fānau naʻe ʻia Sosefa ia: )

3 So then, the sons of Reuben, the firstborn of Israel, were Hanoch and Pallu, Hezron and Carmi.

‌ʻIo, ko e ngaahi foha ʻo Lupeni ko e ʻuluaki fānau kia ʻIsileli, ko Henoke, mo Falu, mo Hesiloni, mo Kalimi.

4 The sons of Joel: Shemaiah his son, Gog his son, Shimei his son,

Ko e ngaahi foha ʻo Soeli; ko Simaia ko hono foha, mo Koki ko hono foha ʻoʻona, mo Simi ko hono foha ʻoʻona,

5 Micah his son, Reaiah his son, Baal his son,

Ko Maika ko hono foha ʻoʻona, ko Liaia ko hono foha ʻoʻona, ko Peali ko hono foha ʻoʻona,

6 Beerah his son, whom Tilgath-pilneser, the king of the Assyrians, led away captive, and he was a leader in the tribe of Reuben.

Ko Piela ko hono foha ʻoʻona, ʻaia naʻe ʻave [fakapōpula ]ʻe Tekilati-Pilesa ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻAsilia: ko e ʻeiki ia ʻoe faʻahinga ʻo Lupeni.

7 Now his brothers and all his kindred, when they were being numbered according to their families, had as leaders Jeiel and Zechariah.

Pea ko e tuʻukimuʻa eni ʻi hono ngaahi tokoua ʻoʻona ʻi honau ngaahi faʻahinga, ʻi heʻene lau hake ʻae hohoko ʻo honau ngaahi toʻutangata, ko Sehieli, mo Sakalia,

8 Now Bela, the son of Azaz, the son of Shema, the son of Joel, lived in Aroer, as far as Nebo and Baalmeon.

Mo Pela ko e foha ʻo ʻAsasi, ko e foha ʻo Sema, ko e foha ʻo Soeli, ʻaia naʻe nofo ʻi ʻAloeli, ʻo aʻu atu ki Nipo mo Peali mioni.

9 And he lived toward the eastern region, as far as the entrance to the wilderness and the river Euphrates. For indeed, they possessed a great number of cattle in the land of Gilead.

Pea ki he feituʻu hahake naʻa ne nofo ʻo aʻu atu ki he hūʻanga ʻoe toafa mei he vaitafe ko ʻIufaletesi: koeʻuhi naʻe tupu ʻo lahi ʻenau fanga manu ʻi he fonua ʻo Kiliati.

10 Then, in the days of Saul, they battled against the Hagarites and put them to death. And they lived in place of them, in their dwellings, throughout the entire region that looks to the east of Gilead.

Pea ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ʻo Saula naʻa nau fai ʻae tau ki he kakai Hekaʻā, pea naʻa nau tō hifo ʻi honau nima: pea naʻa nau nofo ʻi honau ngaahi falefehikitaki ʻi he feituʻu hahake kotoa pē ʻo Kiliati.

11 Truly, the sons of Gad lived in the opposite region from them, in the land of Bashan, as far as Salecah:

Pea naʻe nofo hangatonu mai kiate kinautolu ʻae fānau ʻa Kata, ʻi he fonua ʻo Pesani, mo Salika:

12 Joel the head, and Shapham the second, then Janai and Shaphat, in Bashan.

Ko Soeli ko e ʻeiki lahi, pea hoko mo ia ʻa Safami, mo Sanei, mo Safati ʻi Pesani.

13 Truly, their brothers, according to the houses of their kindred, were: Michael, and Meshullam, and Sheba, and Jorai, and Jacan, and Zia, and Eber, seven.

Pea ko honau kāinga eni ʻi he fale ʻo ʻenau ngaahi tamai, ko Mikaeli, mo Mesulami, mo Sepa, mo Solei, mo Sakani, mo Sia, mo Hepa, ko e toko fitu.

14 These were the sons of Abihail, the son of Huri, the son of Jaroah, the son of Gilead, the son of Michael, the son of Jeshishai, the son of Jahdo, the son of Buz,

Pea ko e fānau eni ʻa ʻApieli ko e foha ʻo Huli, ko e foha ʻo Saloa, ko e foha ʻo Kiliati, ko e foha ʻo Mikaeli, ko e foha ʻo Sesisai, ko e foha ʻo Sato, ko e foha ʻo Pusa;

15 along with their brothers, the sons of Abdiel, the son of Guni, the leader of the house, in their families,

Ko ʻAhi ko e foha ʻo ʻApitieli, ko e foha ʻo Kuni, ko e ʻeiki ia ʻi he fale ʻo ʻenau ngaahi tamai.

16 And they lived in Gilead, and in Bashan and its towns, and in all the suburbs of Sharon, as far as the borders.

Pea naʻa nau nofo ʻi Kiliati ʻi Pesani, pea ʻi hono ngaahi kolo, pea ʻi he ngaahi potu tuaʻā ʻo Saloni, ʻi honau ngaahi ngataʻanga [fonua].

17 All these were numbered in the days of Jotham, the king of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam, the king of Israel:

naʻe lau hake eni kotoa pē ʻo fakatatau mo honau ngaahi toʻutangata ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ʻo Sotami ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta, pea ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ʻo Selopoami ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli.

18 the sons of Reuben, and of Gad, and the one half tribe of Manasseh, men of war, carrying shields and swords, and bending the bow, and trained for battle, forty-four thousand and seven hundred sixty, advancing to the fight.

Ko e ngaahi foha ʻo Lupeni, mo e kakai Kata, mo hono vahe ua ʻoe faʻahinga ʻa Manase, ʻae kau tangata toʻa, ko e kau tangata naʻe faʻa toʻo ʻae pā pea mo e heletā, pea faʻa fanaʻaki ʻae kaufana, mo poto ʻi he tau, ko honau tokolahi ko e toko fā mano, mo e fā afe ma fitungeau ma onongofulu, naʻe ʻalu atu ki he tau.

19 They struggled against the Hagarites, yet truly the Jetureans, and Naphish, and Nodab offered assistance to them.

Pea naʻa nau fakalanga ʻae tau ki he kakai Hekaʻā, pea kia Setuli, mo Nafisi, pea mo Notapi.

20 And the Hagarites were delivered into their hands, and all who were with them. For they called upon God while they did battle. And he heeded them, because they had trusted in him.

Pea naʻe tokoni ʻakinautolu ʻi heʻenau fai kiate kinautolu, pea naʻe tukuange ʻae kakai Hekaʻā ki honau nima, pea mo kinautolu kotoa pē naʻe kau mo kinautolu: he naʻa nau tangi ki he ʻOtua ʻi he tau, pea naʻa ne fakaongo kiate kinautolu; koeʻuhi naʻa nau fakafalala kiate ia.

21 And they seized all that they possessed, of camels fifty thousand, and of sheep two hundred fifty thousand, and of donkeys two thousand, and of men one hundred thousand lives.

Pea naʻa nau ʻave ʻa ʻenau fanga manu; ko e fanga kāmeli ʻe nima mano, mo e fanga sipi ʻe ua kilu mo e nima mano, mo e fanga ʻasi ʻe ua afe, pea mo e kakai tangata ʻe tokotaha kilu,

22 And many fell down wounded. For it was a war of the Lord. And they lived in place of them, until the transmigration.

He naʻe tō ʻo mate ʻae fuʻu tokolahi, he naʻe mei he ʻOtua ʻae tau. Pea naʻa nau nofo ʻi honau ngaahi potu ʻonautolu ʻo aʻu ki he [kuonga ]ʻoe fakapōpula.

23 Also, the sons of the one half tribe of Manasseh possessed the land, from the parts of Bashan as far as Baal, Hermon, and Sanir, and Mount Hermon. For certainly, their number was immense.

Pea naʻe nofo ʻi he fonua ʻae fānau ʻoe vahe ua ʻoe faʻahinga ʻo Manase: naʻa nau tupu ʻo tokolahi mei Pesani ʻo aʻu atu ki Peali-Heamoni, mo Sinili, ʻo aʻu ki he moʻunga ko Heamoni.

24 And these were leaders of the house of their kindred: Epher, and Ishi, and Eliel, and Azriel, and Jeremiah, and Hodaviah, and Jahdiel, very valiant and powerful men, and renowned leaders in their families.

Pea ko kinautolu eni ʻae kau mātuʻa ʻi he fale ʻo ʻenau ngaahi tamai, ʻio, ʻa Hefeli, mo Isi, mo Ilieli, mo ʻAsilieli, mo Selemaia, mo Hotevia, mo Satieli, ko e kau tangata toʻa lahi, ko e kau tangata ongoongo lahi, mo e kau mātuʻa ʻi he fale ʻo ʻenau ngaahi tamai.

25 But they abandoned the God of their fathers, and they fornicated after the gods of the peoples of the land, whom God took away before them.

Pea naʻa nau fai angahala ki he ʻOtua ʻo ʻenau ngaahi tamai, pea naʻa nau ʻalu kehe ke muimui ki he ngaahi ʻotua ʻoe kakai ʻoe fonua, ʻaia naʻe fakaʻauha ʻe he ʻOtua ʻi muʻa ʻiate kinautolu.

26 And so the God of Israel stirred up the spirit of Pul, the king of the Assyrians, and the spirit of Tilgath-pilneser, the king of Assur. And he took away Reuben, and Gad, and the one half tribe of Manasseh. And he led them to Halah, and to Habor, and to Hara, and to the river of Gozan, even to this day.

Pea naʻe ueʻi hake ʻe he ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli ʻae loto ʻo Puli ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻAsilia, mo e loto ʻo Tekilati-Pilesa ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻAsilia, pea naʻa ne ʻave pōpula ʻakinautolu, ʻio, ʻae kakai Lupeni, mo e kakai Kata, mo e vahe ua ʻoe faʻahinga ʻo Manase, pea naʻa ne ʻomi ʻakinautolu ki Hela, mo Hapoa, mo Hala, pea ki he vaitafe ko Kosani, ʻo aʻu mai ki he kuonga ni.
