1 Samuel 17
1 Now the Philistines gathering together their troops to battle, assembled at Socho of Juda, and camped between Socho and Azeca in the borders of Dommim.
Pea naʻe tānaki ʻe he kakai Filisitia ʻa ʻenau ngaahi tau ke tau, pea naʻe kātoa fakataha ʻakinautolu ʻi Soko ʻaia ʻoku ʻo Siuta, ʻonau ʻapitanga ʻi he vahaʻa ʻo Soko mo ʻAseka ʻi ʻEfesi-Tamemi.
2 And Saul and the children of Israel being gathered together came to the valley of Terebinth, and they set the army in array to fight against the Philistines.
Pea kuo kātoa fakataha ʻa Saula mo e kau tangata ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻonau ʻapitanga ʻi he teleʻa ʻo Ila, ʻonau fakanofonofo ʻae tau ke tauʻi ʻae kakai Filisitia.
3 And the Philistines stood on a mountain on the one side, and Israel stood on a mountain on the other side: and there was a valley between them.
Pea naʻe tuʻu ʻae kau Filisitia ʻi he moʻunga ʻi he potu ʻe taha, pea tuʻu ʻa ʻIsileli ʻi he moʻunga ʻi he potu kehe: pea naʻe ai ʻae teleʻa ʻi hona vahaʻa.
4 And there went out a man baseborn from the camp of the Philistines named Goliath, of Geth, whose height was six cubits and a span:
Pea naʻe ʻalu atu mei he ʻapitanga ʻoe kau Filisitia ʻae tangata toʻa, ko Kolaiate ʻo Kati hono hingoa, ko e hanga ʻe hongofulu ma tolu hono māʻolunga.
5 And he had a helmet of brass upon his head, and he was clothed with a coat of mail with scales, and the weight of his coat of mail was five thousand sicles of brass:
Pea naʻe ʻi hono ʻulu ʻae tatā palasa, pea naʻe kofu ia ʻaki ʻae kofu palasa: pea ko e fakatatau ʻo hono kofu ko e sikeli palasa ʻe nima afe.
6 And he had greaves of brass on his legs, and a buckler of brass covered his shoulders.
Pea naʻe kofuʻaki ʻae palasa ʻa hono vaʻe pea naʻe ʻi he vahaʻa ʻo hono uma ha sifa palasa.
7 And the staff of his spear was like a weaver’s beam, and the head of his spear weighed six hundred sicles of iron: and his armourbearer went before him.
Pea ko e kau ʻo hono tao naʻe hangē ko e ʻakau fakamaʻunga ʻae tangata lalanga; pea ko hono mamafa ʻoe ʻulu ʻo hono tao ko e sikeli ʻaione ʻe onongeau: pea naʻe ʻalu ha tokotaha ʻi hono ʻao ke fua ʻae pā.
8 And standing he cried out to the bands of Israel, and said to them: Why are you come out prepared to fight? am not I a Philistine, and you the servants of Saul? Choose out a man of you, and let him come down and fight hand to hand.
Pea naʻe tuʻu ia ʻo kalanga ki he ngaahi tau ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻo ne pehē kiate kinautolu, “Ko e hā kuo mou haʻu ke fakatoka ai ʻae tau? ʻIkai ko e Filisitia au, pea mo kimoutolu ko e kau tamaioʻeiki kia Saula? Fili ha tangata maʻamoutolu, pea tuku ke ʻalu hifo ia kiate au.
9 If he be able to fight with me, and kill me, we will be servants to you: but if I prevail against him, and kill him, you shall be servants, and shall serve us.
Kapau ʻoku mafai ʻe ia ke ma tau mo au, pea ne tāmateʻi au, pehē te mau hoko ho hoʻomou kau tamaioʻeiki: pea kapau te u mālohi au kiate ia, ʻo tāmateʻi ia, te mou hoko ko ʻemau kau tamaioʻeiki, pea te mou tauhi ʻakimautolu.”
10 And the Philistine said: I have defied the bands of Israel this day: Give me a man, and let him fight with me hand to hand.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tangata Filisitia, “ʻOku ou sipitau ki he ngaahi tau ʻo ʻIsileli he ʻaho ni; tuku mai ha tangata ke ma fai mo au.”
11 And Saul and all the Israelites hearing these words of the Philistine were dismayed, and greatly afraid.
Pea ʻi he fanongo ʻa Saula mo ʻIsileli kotoa pē ki he ngaahi lea ko ia ʻae tangata Filisitia, naʻa nau ilifia mo manavahē lahi.
12 Now David was the son of that Ephrathite of Bethlehem Juda before mentioned, whose name was Isai, who had eight sons, and was an old man in the days of Saul, and of great age among men.
Pea ko Tevita ko e foha ia ʻoe tangata ʻo Efalata ʻo Petelihema, ko hono hingoa ko Sese; pea naʻe ʻiate ia ʻae foha ʻe toko valu: pea naʻe lau ʻae tangata ko ia mo e kau mātuʻa ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ʻo Saula.
13 And his three eldest sons followed Saul to the battle: and the names of his three sons that went to the battle, were Eliab the firstborn, and the second Abinadab, and the third Samma.
Pea naʻe muimui ʻia Saula ki he tau ʻae ngaahi foha ʻe toko tolu ʻo Sese naʻe tuʻukimuʻa; pea ko e hingoa ʻo hono foha ʻe toko tolu naʻe ʻalu ki he tau, ko Iliape ko e ʻuluaki ia, pea naʻe hoko mo ia ʻa ʻApinatapi, pea ko hono toko tolu ko Sama.
14 But David was the youngest. So the three eldest having followed Saul,
Pea ko e kimui ʻa Tevita: pea naʻe muimui ʻia Saula ʻae taʻokete ʻe toko tolu.
15 David went, and returned from Saul, to feed his father’s flock at Bethlehem.
Ka naʻe hiki ʻa Tevita meia Saula ke toe ʻalu ʻo tauhi ʻae fanga sipi ʻa ʻene tamai ʻi Petelihema.
16 Now the Philistine came out morning and evening, and presented himself forty days.
Pea naʻe ʻunuʻunu mai ʻae tangata Filisitia ʻi he pongipongi mo e efiafi, ʻo ne fakahā ia ʻi he ʻaho ʻe fāngofulu.
17 And Isai said to David his son: Take for thy brethren an ephi of frumenty, and these ten loaves, and run to the camp to thy brethren.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sese ki hono foha ko Tevita, “Ko eni, ke ke ʻave ki ho ngaahi taʻokete ʻae efa ʻe taha ʻoe uite tunu ni, mo e foʻi mā ʻe hongofulu, pea ke lele ki he ʻapitanga ki ho kāinga;
18 And carry these ten little cheeses to the tribune: and go see thy brethren, if they are well: and learn with whom they are placed.
Pea ke ʻave ʻae ngaahi siisi ʻe hongofulu ki he ʻeiki ʻo ʻenau toko afe, pea vakai, pe ʻoku fēfē ʻa ho ngaahi taʻokete, pea ke maʻu ʻenau popōaki.
19 But Saul, and they, and all the children of Israel were in the valley of Terebinth fighting against the Philistines.
Pea ko eni, ko Saula mo kinautolu, mo e kau tangata kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli, naʻa nau ʻi he teleʻa ʻo Ila, ke tau mo e kakai Filisitia.”
20 David therefore arose in the morning, and gave the charge of the flock to the keeper: and went away loaded as Isai had commanded him. And he came to the place of Magala, and to the army, which was going out to fight, and shouted for the battle.
Pea naʻe tuʻu hengihengi hake ʻa Tevita ʻi he ʻapongipongi, ʻo ne tuku ʻae fanga sipi ki he tangata ke leʻohi, pea naʻe teu, ʻo ʻalu ia, ʻo hangē ko e fekau ʻa Sese kiate ia; pea naʻe hoko atu ia ki he keli, ʻo feʻunga mo ʻene ʻalu atu ʻae tau ke tau, mo ʻenau kaila ki he tau.
21 For Israel had put themselves in array, and the Philistines who stood against them were prepared.
He naʻe ʻosi hono fakaʻotu ʻae tau ʻe ʻIsileli mo e kakai Filisitia, pea naʻe fehāngaaki ʻae tau ki he tau.
22 And David leaving the vessels which he had brought, under the care of the keeper of the baggage, ran to the place of the battle and asked if all things went well with his brethren.
Pea naʻe tuku ʻe Tevita ʻae ngaahi meʻa naʻe tokonaki ki he nima ʻoe tangata leʻo koloa, ka ka lele ia ki he tau, pea naʻe hoko atu ia ʻo ne feʻiloaki mo hono ngaahi taʻokete.
23 And as he talked with them, that baseborn man whose name was Goliath, the Philistine, of Geth, shewed himself coming up from the camp of the Philistines: and he spoke according to the same words, and David heard them.
Pea ʻi heʻenau kei talanoa, vakai, naʻe ʻalu hake ʻae fuʻu toʻa ko e tangata Filisitia ʻo Kati, ko Kolaiate hono hingoa, mei he ngaahi tau ʻoe kakai Filisitia, pea naʻe lea ia ʻo fakatatau ki heʻene ngaahi lea muʻa: pea naʻe fanongo ki ai ʻa Tevita.
24 And all the Israelites when they saw the man, fled from his face, fearing him exceedingly.
Pea ʻi he mamata kiate ia ʻae kau tangata kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli, naʻa nau hola meiate ia, pea manavahē lahi.
25 And some one of Israel said: Have you seen this man that is come up, for he is come up to defy Israel. And the man that shall slay him, the king will enrich with great riches, and will give him his daughter, and will make his father’s house free from tribute in Israel.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he kau tangata ʻo ʻIsileli, “Kuo mou mamata ki he tangata ni kuo ʻalu hake? Ko e moʻoni kuo ʻalu hake ia ke luki ki ʻIsileli: ka ʻe ʻilonga ʻae tangata ʻe tāmateʻi ia, ʻe fakakoloa ia ʻe he tuʻi ʻaki ʻae koloa lahi, pea ʻe foaki kiate ia hono ʻofefine, pea ʻe fakatauʻatāina ʻae fale ʻo ʻene tamai ʻi ʻIsileli.”
26 And David spoke to the men that stood by him, saying: What shall be given to the man that shall kill this Philistine, and shall take away the reproach from Israel? for who is this uncircumcised Philistine, that he should defy the armies of the living God?
Pea naʻe lea ʻa Tevita ki he kau tangata naʻe tuʻu ʻi ai, ʻo pehē, “Ko e hā ʻe fai ki he tangata ʻoku ne tāmateʻi ʻae Filisitia ko eni, pea ʻave ke mamaʻo ʻae manuki mei ʻIsileli? He ko hai ʻae Filisitia taʻekamu ni koeʻuhi ke tuʻu ia ʻo luki ki he ngaahi kautau ʻae ʻOtua moʻui?”
27 And the people answered him the same words saying: These things shall be given to the man that shall slay him.
Pea naʻe lea ʻae kakai kiate ia ʻo fakatatau mo ia kuo lau, ʻo pehē, ʻE pehē pe hono fai ki he tangata te ne tāmateʻi ia.
28 Now when Eliab his eldest brother heard this, when he was speaking with others, he was angry with David, and said: Why earnest thou hither? and why didst thou leave those few sheep in the desert? I know thy pride, and the wickedness of thy heart: that thou art come down to see the battle.
Pea naʻe fanongo ʻa Iliape ko hono taʻokete ʻi heʻene lea ki he kau tangata; pea naʻe tupu ai ʻae ʻita ʻa Iliape kia Tevita, pea pehē ʻe ia, “Ko e hā naʻa ke omi ai ki heni? Pea kuo ke tuku kia hai ʻae fanga sipi siʻi na ʻi he toafa? ʻOku ou ʻilo hoʻo fielahi, mo e kovi lahi ʻo ho loto; he kuo ke haʻu ki heni koeʻuhi ke ke mamata ki he tau.”
29 And David said: What have I done? is there not cause to speak?
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Tevita, “Ko eni ko e hā kuo u fai? ʻIkai ʻoku ai hono ʻuhinga?”
30 And he turned a little aside from him to another: and said the same word. And the people answered him as before.
Pea ne tafoki ia meiate ia ʻo hanga ki he tokotaha, ʻo toe lea ʻo pehē pe: pea naʻe toe tala kiate ia, ʻo hangē ko e fuofua lea.
31 And the words which David spoke were heard, and were rehearsed before Saul.
Pea ʻi heʻene ongoongo atu ʻae ngaahi lea naʻe lea ʻaki ʻe Tevita, naʻa nau fakahā ia ʻi he ʻao ʻo Saula: pea naʻa ne fekau ke ʻomi ia.
32 And when he was brought to him, he said to him: Let not any man’s heart be dismayed in him: I thy servant will go, and will fight against the Philistine.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Tevita kia Saula, “ʻOua naʻa ilifia ʻae loto ʻo ha tangata koeʻuhi ko ia; ko hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ko au te u ʻalu ʻo tauʻi ʻae tangata Filisitia.”
33 And Saul said to David: Thou art not able to withstand this Philistine, nor to fight against him: for thou art but a boy, but he is a warrior from his youth.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Saula kia Tevita, “ʻOku ʻikai te ke mafai ke ʻalu ke tuʻu hake ʻo tauʻi ʻae Filisitia ni: he ko e tamasiʻi pe koe, ka ko e tangata tau pe ia talu ʻene kei siʻi.”
34 And David said to Saul: Thy servant kept his father’s sheep, and there came a lion, or a bear, and took a ram out of the midst of the flock:
Ka naʻe pehē ʻe Tevita kia Saula, “Naʻe tauhi ʻe hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ʻae fanga sipi ʻa ʻene tamai, mo ʻene haʻu ʻae laione mo e pea, ʻo puke ʻo ʻave ʻae ʻuhikiʻi lami mei he fanga sipi:
35 And I pursued after them, and struck them, and delivered it out of their mouth: and they rose up against me, and I caught them by the throat, and I strangled and killed them.
Pea naʻaku tuli ia ʻi tuaʻā, ʻo taaʻi ia, pea u fakamoʻui ia mei hono ngutu: pea ʻi heʻene tuʻu ki ʻolunga kiate au, naʻaku puke ia ʻi hono fakapau, pea tā ia ʻo tāmateʻi.
36 For I thy servant have killed both a lion and a bear: and this uncircumcised Philistine shall be also as one of them. I will go now, and take away the reproach of the people: for who is this uncircumcised Philistine, who hath dared to curse the army of the living God?
Naʻe tāmateʻi fakatouʻosi pe ʻe hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ʻae laione mo e pea: pea ko e Filisitia taʻekamu ni, ʻe tatau ia mo ha taha ʻo kinaua, ko e meʻa ʻi heʻene pole ki he ngaahi tau ʻae ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli.”
37 And David said: The Lord who delivered me out of the paw of the lion, and out of the paw of the bear, he will deliver me out of the hand of this Philistine. And Saul said to David: Go, and the Lord be with thee.
Pea naʻe lea foki ʻa Tevita ʻo pehē, “Ko Sihova ʻaia naʻa ne fakamoʻui au mei he pesipesi ʻoe laione, mo e pesipesi ʻoe pea, te ne fakamoʻui au mei he nima ʻoe Filisitia ni.” Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Saula kia Tevita, “ʻAlu, pea ke ʻiate koe ʻa Sihova.
38 And Saul clothed David with his garments, and put a helmet of brass upon his head, and armed him with a coat of mail.
Pea naʻe fakakofu tau ʻe Saula ʻa Tevita, “Pea ne ʻai ʻae tatā palasa ki hono ʻulu; pea ne ʻai kiate ia foki ʻae kofu palasa.
39 And David having girded his sword upon his armour, began to try if he could walk in armour: for he was not accustomed to it. And David said to Saul: I cannot go thus, for I am not used to it. And he laid them off,
Pea naʻe nonoʻo ʻe Tevita ʻene heletā ʻituʻa ki he kofu tau, ʻo ne ʻahiʻahi ke ʻalu; he naʻe teʻeki ai te ne ʻahiʻahiʻi ia. Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Tevita kia Saula, “ʻOku ʻikai te u faʻa ʻalu mo e nāunau ni: he kuo ʻikai te u ʻahiʻahiʻi ia.” Pea naʻe vete ia ʻe Tevita ʻo ne tuku ia.
40 And he took his staff, which he had always in his hands: and chose him five smooth stones out of the brook, and put them into the shepherd’s scrip, which he had with him, and he took a sling in his hand, and went forth against the Philistine.
Pea naʻe toʻo ʻe ia hono tokotoko, ʻi hono nima, ʻo ne fili ʻae foʻi maka molemole ʻe nima mei he tafeʻanga, vai, ʻo ne ʻai ia ki he kato ʻae tauhi sipi naʻe ʻiate ia, ʻaia ko e kato siʻi; pea naʻe ʻi hono nima ʻene makatā: pea naʻe ʻunuʻunu atu ia ki he tangata Filisitia.
41 And the Philistine came on, and drew nigh against David, and his armourbearer before him.
Pea naʻe haʻu ʻae tangata Filisitia ʻo ne ʻunuʻunu ke ofi kia Tevita: pea ko e tangata naʻe fua ʻae pā naʻe ʻalu muʻomuʻa ia ʻi hono ʻao.
42 And when the Philistine looked, and beheld David, he despised him. For he was a young man, ruddy, and of a comely countenance.
Pea ʻi he fesiofaki ʻae tangata Filisitia, ʻo ne mamata kia Tevita, naʻa ne manuki kiate ia: he naʻe kei tamasiʻi pe ia, pea totototo, pea matamatalelei hono mata.
43 And the Philistine said to David: Am I a dog, that thou comest to me with a staff? And the Philistine cursed David by his gods.
Pea pehē ʻe he tangata Filisitia kia Tevita, “Ko e kulī au, kuo ke haʻu ai kiate au mo e ngaahi ʻakau?” Pea kapeʻi ʻe he tangata Filisitia ʻa Tevita ʻi hono ngaahi ʻotua.
44 And he said to David: Come to me, and I will give thy flesh to the birds of the air, and to the beasts of the earth.
Pea pehē ʻe he tangata Filisitia kia Tevita, “Haʻu kiate au, pea te u ʻatu ho kakano ki he fanga manu ʻoe ʻatā, pea ki he fanga manu ʻoe vao.”
45 And David said to the Philistine: Thou comest to me with a sword, and with a spear, and with a shield: but I come to thee in the name of the Lord of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, which thou hast defied.
Pea pehē ʻe Tevita ki he tangata Filisitia, “ʻOku ke haʻu kiate au ʻaki ʻae heletā, mo e tao, pea mo e pā: ka ʻoku ou ʻalu atu kiate koe ʻi he huafa ʻo Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, ko e ʻOtua ʻoe ngaahi tau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻaia kuo ke polepole ki ai.
46 This day, and the Lord will deliver thee into my hand, and I will slay thee, and take away thy head from thee: and I will give the carcasses of the army of the Philistines this day to the birds of the air, and to the beasts of the earth: that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel.
ʻE tuku koe ʻe Sihova he ʻaho ni ki hoku nima; pea te u taaʻi koe ʻo toʻo ho ʻulu meiate koe; pea te u foaki ʻae ngaahi ʻangaʻanga ʻoe tau ʻae kakai Filisitia he ʻaho ni ki he fanga manu ʻoe ʻatā, pea ki he fanga manu kaivao ʻoe fonua, koeʻuhi ke hoko ʻo ʻilo ʻe māmani kotoa pē, ʻoku ai ha ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli.
47 And all this assembly shall know, that the Lord saveth not with sword and spear: for it is his battle, and he will deliver you into our hands.
Pea ʻe hoko ʻo ʻilo ʻe he fakataha ni kotoa pē, ʻoku ʻikai fakamoʻui ʻe Sihova ʻaki ʻae heletā mo e tao; he ʻoku ʻa Sihova ʻae tau, pea te ne tuku ʻakimoutolu ki homau nima.”
48 And when the Philistine arose and was coming, and drew nigh to meet David, David made haste, and ran to the fight to meet the Philistine.
Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi he tuʻu hake ʻae tangata Filisitia, pea haʻu ke ʻunuʻunu mai ke fakafetaulaki kia Tevita, naʻe fai vave ʻa Tevita ʻo lele atu ki he fuʻu tau ke fakafetaulaki atu ki he Filisitia.
49 And he put his hand into his scrip, and took a stone, and cast it with the sling, and fetching it about struck the Philistine in the forehead: and the stone was fixed in his forehead, and he fell on his face upon the earth.
Pea naʻe ala ʻe Tevita hono nima ki heʻene kato, ʻo ne toʻo mei ai ʻae foʻi maka, ʻo ne makataaʻi ia, ʻo ne taaʻi ʻae Filisitia ʻi hono foʻi laʻē, pea naʻe ngalo hifo ʻae maka ʻi hono ʻulu; pea ne tō ʻo tuʻu hono mata ki he kelekele.
50 And David prevailed over the Philistine, with a sling and a stone, and he struck, and slew the Philistine. And as David had no sword in his hand,
Ko ia naʻe ikuna ʻe Tevita ʻae tangata Filisitia ʻaki ʻae makatā mo e foʻi maka, ʻo ne taaʻi ʻae Filisitia, ʻo tāmateʻi ia; ka naʻe ʻikai ha heletā ʻi he nima ʻo Tevita.
51 He ran, and stood over the Philistine, and took his sword, and drew it out of the sheath, and slew him, and cut off his head. And the Philistines seeing that their champion was dead, fled away.
Pea ko ia naʻe lele ai ʻa Tevita ʻo tuʻu ki he tangata Filisitia, ʻo ne puke ʻene heletā ʻaʻana, ʻo unuhi ia mei hono ʻaiʻanga, ʻo tāmateʻi ia ʻo ne tutuʻu ʻaki ia ʻa hono ʻulu. Pea ʻi he mamata ʻae kau Filisitia kuo mate honau toʻa, naʻa nau hola.
52 And the men of Israel and Juda rising up shouted, and pursued after the Philistines till they came to the valley and to the gates of Accaron, and there fell many wounded of the Philistines in the way of Saraim, and as far as Geth, and as far as Accaron.
Pea naʻe tuʻu hake ʻae kau tangata ʻo ʻIsileli mo Siuta, ʻonau kaila, ʻonau tuli ʻae kau Filisitia, ʻo aʻu atu ki he toafa, pea ki he ngaahi matapā ʻo Ekiloni. Pea naʻe tō ki lalo ʻae kau kafo ʻoe kakai Filisitia ʻi he hala ki Sealeimi, ʻio, ʻo aʻu atu ki Kati mo Ekiloni.
53 And the children of Israel returning, after they had pursued the Philistines, fell upon their camp.
Pea naʻe liu mai ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli mei heʻenau tuli ki he kakai Filisitia, ʻonau maumauʻi honau ngaahi fale ʻapitanga.
54 And David taking the head of the Philistine brought it to Jerusalem: but his armour he put in his tent.
Pea naʻe toʻo ʻe Tevita ʻae ʻulu ʻoe tangata Filisitia, ʻo ne ʻomi ia ki Selūsalema; ka naʻa ne ʻai ʻene mahafutau ki hono fale fehikitaki.
55 Now at the time that Saul saw David going out against the Philistines, he said to Abner the captain of the army: Of what family is this young man descended, Abner? And Abner said: As thy soul liveth, O king, I know not.
Pea ʻi he mamata ʻa Saula ki he ʻalu atu ʻa Tevita ke tauʻi ʻae tangata Filisitia, naʻe pehē ʻe ia kia ʻApina ko e ʻeiki ʻo ʻene tau, ʻApina, “Ko e foha ʻo hai ʻae tamasiʻi ni?” Pea pehē ʻe ʻApina, “Hangē ʻoku moʻui ho laumālie, ʻE tuʻi, ʻoku ʻikai te u ʻiloa.”
56 And the king said: Inquire thou, whose son this man is.
Pea pehē ʻe he tuʻi, “Ke ke fehuʻi koe, pe ko e foha ʻo hai ʻae tangata siʻi ni.”
57 And when David was returned, after the Philistine was slain, Abner took him, and brought him in before Saul, with the head of the Philistine in his hand.
Pea ʻi he liu mai ʻa Tevita mei he tāmateʻi ʻoe tangata Filisitia, naʻe maʻu ia ʻe ʻApina, ʻo ne ʻomi ia ki he ʻao ʻo Saula mo e ʻulu ʻoe Filisitia naʻe ʻi hono nima.
58 And Saul said to him: Young man, of what family art thou? And David said: I am the son of thy servant Isai the Bethlehemite.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Saula kiate ia, “Ko e foha koe ʻo hai?” Pea naʻe pehēange ʻe Tevita, “Ko e foha [au ]ʻo hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ko Sese ko e tangata Petelihema.”
