1 Chronicles 20

1 And when the yere was expired, in the time that Kings goe out a warfare, Ioab caryed out the strength of the armie, and destroyed the countrey of the children of Ammon, and came and besieged Rabbah (but Dauid taryed at Ierusalem) and Ioab smote Rabbah and destroyed it.

Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi heʻene hili ange ʻae taʻu ʻe taha, ʻi he faʻahitaʻu ʻaia ʻoku faʻa ʻalu atu ai ʻae ngaahi tuʻi [ke fai ʻae tau], naʻe tataki atu ʻe Soape ʻae mālohi ʻoe kautau, pea naʻa ne fakalala ʻae fonua ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻAmoni, pea naʻa ne hoko atu ʻo kāpui ʻa Lapa ʻaki ʻae tau. Ka naʻe nofo pe ʻa Tevita ʻi Selūsalema. Pea naʻe kapa ʻa Lapa ʻe Soape, mo ne fakaʻauha ia.

2 Then Dauid tooke the crowne of their King from off his head, and founde it the weight of a talent of golde, with precious stones in it: and it was set on Dauids head, and he brought away the spoyle of the citie exceeding much.

Pea naʻe toʻo mai ʻe Tevita ʻae tatā fakatuʻi mei he ʻulu ʻo honau tuʻi, pea ko hono mamafa ko e taleniti koula ʻe taha, pea naʻe fonofono ki ai ʻae ngaahi maka mahuʻinga; pea naʻe ʻai ia ki he fofonga ʻo Tevita: pea naʻa ne fetuku foki mei he kolo ʻae koloa lahi ʻaupito.

3 And he caryed away the people that were in it, and cut them with sawes, and with harowes of yron, and with axes: euen thus did Dauid with all the cities of the children of Ammon. Then Dauid and all the people came againe to Ierusalem.

Pea naʻa ne ʻomi kituaʻā ʻae kakai naʻe nofo ʻi ai, mo ne kilisi ʻakinautolu ʻaki ʻae kili, pea mo e ngaahi meʻa keli ukamea, pea mo e ngaahi toki. Naʻe fai pehē ʻe Tevita ki he ngaahi kolo kotoa pē ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻAmoni, Pea naʻe foki mai ʻa Tevita pea mo e kakai kotoa pē ki Selūsalema.

4 And after this also there arose warre at Gezer with the Philistims: then Sibbechai the Hushathite slewe Sippai, of the children of Haraphah, and they were subdued.

Pea hili ʻae meʻa ni naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, naʻe fai ʻae tau ʻi Kesa mo e kakai Filisitia; pea ko e kuonga ia naʻe tāmateʻi ʻa Sipei ʻe Sipikei ko e tangata Husa, ko e taha ʻi he fānau ʻoe tangata sino lahi ʻaupito: pea naʻe ikuna ʻakinautolu.

5 And there was yet another battell with the Philistims: and Elhanan the sonne of Iair slewe Lahmi, the brother of Goliath the Gittite, whose spearestaffe was like a weauers beame.

Pea naʻe toe fai ʻae tau mo e kakai Filisitia: pea naʻe tāmateʻi ʻe Elihanani ko e foha ʻo Saele ʻo Laami ko e tehina ʻo Kolaia ko e tangata Kati, ʻaia naʻe tatau hono foʻi tao mo e ʻakau lalanga ʻoe tangata lalanga tupenu.

6 And yet againe there was a battel at Gath, where was a man of a great stature, and his fingers were by sixes, euen foure and twentie, and was also the sonne of Haraphah.

Pea naʻe toe fai foki ʻae tau ʻi Kati, pea naʻe ʻi ai ha tangata fuʻu lahi ʻaupito, ʻaia naʻe uofulu ma fā ʻa hono kupuʻi nima mo hono kupuʻi vaʻe, ko e taki ono ʻi he nima, mo e taki ono ʻi he vaʻe: pea ko e foha foki ia ʻoe tangata sino lahi ʻaupito.

7 And when he reuiled Israel, Iehonathan the sonne of Shimea Dauids brother did slay him.

Ka ʻi heʻene polepole tau ki ʻIsileli naʻe tāmateʻi ia ʻe Sonatane ko e foha ʻo Simia ko e tokoua ʻo Tevita.

8 These were borne vnto Haraphah at Gath, and fell by the hand of Dauid: and by the hands of his seruants.

Naʻe fanauʻi ʻakinautolu ni ki he fuʻu tangata lahi ʻaupito ʻi Kati; pea naʻa nau tō ʻo mate ʻi he nima ʻo Tevita pea ʻi he nima ʻo ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki.
