2 Samuel 13
1 Now after this so it was, that Absalom the sonne of Dauid hauing a fayre sister, whose name was Tamar, Amnon the sonne of Dauid loued her.
Pea hili eni naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, naʻe ʻia ʻApisalomi ko e foha ʻo Tevita, ʻae tuofefine naʻe hoihoifua, pea ko Tamaa ʻa hono hingoa; pea naʻe mamana kiate ia ʻa ʻAmanoni ko e foha ʻo Tevita.
2 And Amnon was so sore vexed, that he fell sicke for his sister Tamar: for she was a virgin, and it seemed hard to Amnon to doe any thing to her.
Pea ko e meʻa ʻi heʻene feinga mamahi ʻa ʻAmanoni, naʻa ne hoko ʻo mahakiʻia koeʻuhi ko hono tuofefine ko Tamaa; he ko e tāupoʻou ia; pea ko e meʻa fifilingataʻa kia ʻAmanoni haʻane fai ha meʻa kiate ia.
3 But Amnon had a friend called Ionadab, the sonne of Shimeah Dauids brother: and Ionadab was a very subtile man.
Ka naʻe ai ʻae kaumeʻa ʻa ʻAmanoni, naʻe hingoa ko Sonatapi, ko e foha ʻo Simia ko e kāinga ʻo Tevita: pea ko e tangata kākā ʻaupito ʻa Sonatapi.
4 Who sayde vnto him, Why art thou the Kings sonne so leane from day to day? wilt thou not tell me? Then Amnon answered him, I loue Tamar my brother Absaloms sister.
Pea naʻa ne pehē kiate ia, “Ko e foha koe ʻoe tuʻi, pea ko e hā ʻoku pehē ai ho tutue ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē? ʻIkai te ke tala mai kiate au?” Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ʻAmanoni kiate ia, “ʻOku ou ʻofa kia Tamaa, ko e tuofefine ʻo ʻApisalomi ko hoku tokoua.”
5 And Ionadab sayd vnto him, Lie downe on thy bed, and make thy selfe sicke: and when thy father shall come to see thee, say vnto him, I pray thee, let my sister Tamar come, and giue me meate, and let her dresse meate in my sight, that I may see it, and eate it of her hand.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sonatapi kiate ia, “Tokoto hifo koe ki ho mohenga, pea ke pehē ʻoku ke mahaki: pea ʻoka haʻu hoʻo tamai ke mamata kiate koe, te ke pehē kiate ia, ‘ʻOku ou kole kiate koe, tuku ke haʻu ʻa hoku tuofefine ko Tamaa, ke ne ʻomi ʻeku meʻakai, pea ne teuteu ʻeku meʻakai ʻi hoku ʻao, koeʻuhi ke u mamata ki ai, pea kai ia mei hono nima.’”
6 So Amnon lay downe, and made himselfe sicke: and when the King came to see him, Amnon sayde vnto the King, I pray thee, let Tamar my sister come, and make me a couple of cakes in my sight, that I may receiue meate at her hand.
Ko ia naʻe tokoto ai ʻa ʻAmanoni, ʻo ne pehē kuo ne mahaki: pea ʻi heʻene haʻu ʻae tuʻi ke mamata kiate ia, naʻe pehē ʻe ʻAmanoni ki he tuʻi, “ʻOku ou kole kiate koe, tuku ke haʻu ʻa Tamaa ko hoku tuofefine, ke ne ngaohi ha foʻi mā ʻe ua ʻi hoku ʻao, koeʻuhi ke u kai ia mei hono nima.”
7 Then Dauid sent home to Tamar, saying, Goe now to thy brother Amnons house, and dresse him meate.
Pea naʻe fekau ai ʻe Tevita ki he fale ʻo Tamaa, ʻo pehē, “ʻAlu leva ni ki he fale ʻo ʻAmanoni ko ho tuongaʻane, pea teuteu haʻane meʻakai.”
8 So Tamar went to her brother Amnons house, and he lay downe: and she tooke floure, and knead it, and made cakes in his sight, and did bake the cakes.
Ko ia naʻe ʻalu ai ʻa Tamaa ki he fale ʻo ʻAmanoni ko hono tuongaʻane; ka kuo tokoto hifo ia. Pea naʻe toʻo ʻe ia ʻae mahoaʻa, pea ne natu ia, pea naʻa ne ngaohi ʻae ngaahi foʻi mā ʻi hono ʻao, pea naʻa ne taʻo ʻae ngaahi foʻi mā.
9 And she tooke a pan, and powred them out before him, but he would not eat. Then Amnon saide, Cause ye euery man to goe out from me: so euery man went out from him.
Pea naʻa ne toʻo mai ha ipu ʻo ne lilingi ia ʻi hono ʻao: ka naʻe ʻikai loto ia ke kai. Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ʻAmanoni, “Tuku kituʻa ʻae kau tangata kotoa pē meiate au.” Pea naʻa nau ʻalu kotoa pē kituʻa meiate ia.
10 Then Amnon said vnto Tamar, Bring the meate into the chamber, that I may eate of thine hand. And Tamar tooke the cakes which shee had made, and brought them into the chamber to Amnon her brother.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ʻAmanoni kia Tamaa, “ʻOmi ʻae meʻakai ki loto fale, koeʻuhi ke u kai ia mei ho nima.” Pea naʻe hiki ʻe Tamaa ʻae ngaahi foʻi mā naʻa ne ngaohi, ʻo ne ʻomi ia ki loto fale kia ʻAmanoni ko hono tuongaʻane.
11 And when she had set them before him to eate, he tooke her, and sayd vnto her, Come, lye with me, my sister.
Pea ʻi heʻene ʻomi ia kiate ia ke ne kai, naʻa ne puke ia, ʻo ne pehē ki ai, “Haʻu hoku tuofefine ke ta mohe mo au.”
12 But shee answered him, Nay, my brother, doe not force me: for no such thing ought to be done in Israel: commit not this follie.
Pea naʻa ne pehēange ʻe ia, “ʻE ʻikai, ʻa hoku tuongaʻane, ʻoua naʻa ke fakamaaʻi au; he ʻoku ʻikai totonu ke fai ha meʻa pehē ʻi ʻIsileli: ʻoua naʻa ke fai ʻae vale ni.
13 And I, whither shall I cause my shame to goe? and thou shalt be as one of the fooles in Israel: now therefore, I pray thee, speake to the King, for he will not denie me vnto thee.
Pea ko au, te u tuku ke ʻalu ki fē ʻa hoku fakamā? Pea ko koe, te ke hangē koe ko ha taha ʻoe kau vale ʻi ʻIsileli. Ko ia foki, ʻoku ou kole kiate koe, ke ke lea ki he tuʻi; he koeʻuhi ʻe ʻikai te ne taʻofi au meiate koe.”
14 Howbeit he would not hearken vnto her voyce, but being stronger then she, forced her, and lay with her.
Ka neongo eni naʻe ʻikai fie tokanga ia ki heʻene lea: pea ko e meʻa ʻi heʻene mālohi lahi ʻiate ia, naʻa ne tohotohoʻi ia, pea mohe mo ia.
15 Then Amnon hated her exceedingly, so that the hatred wherewith he hated her, was greater then the loue, wherewith hee had loued her: and Amnon sayde vnto her, Vp, get thee hence.
Pea hili ia naʻe fehiʻa ʻaupito kiate ia ʻa ʻAmanoni; ko ia naʻe lahi hake ai ʻae fehiʻa naʻa ne fehiʻa ʻaki kiate ia, ʻi he ʻofa ʻaia naʻa ne ʻofa ai kiate ia. Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ʻAmanoni kiate ia, “Tuʻu hake, pea ke ʻalu.”
16 And she answered him, There is no cause: this euill (to put mee away) is greater then the other that thou diddest vnto me: but he would not heare her,
Pea naʻa ne pehē kiate ia, “ʻOku ʻikai hano ʻuhinga: ʻoku lahi hake ʻae kovi ni ʻo hoʻo fekauʻi au ke ʻalu, ʻi he meʻa ʻe taha kuo ke fai kiate au. Ka naʻe ʻikai ʻaupito fanongo ia kiate ia.”
17 But called his seruant that serued him, and sayd, Put this woman now out from me, and locke the doore after her.
Pea naʻa ne toki ui ki heʻene tamaioʻeiki ʻaia naʻe talifekau kiate ia, ʻo ne pehē, “Kapusi atu leva ʻa e [fefine ]ni meiate au, pea songo ʻae matapā kiate ia.”
18 (And she had a garment of diuers coulours vpon her: for with such garments were the Kings daughters that were virgins, apparelled) Then his seruant brought her out, and locked the doore after her.
Pea naʻe fakakofuʻaki ia ʻae kofu pulepule: he ko e anga ia ʻoe kofu naʻe kofuʻaki ʻae ngaahi ʻofefine ʻoe tuʻi ʻaia naʻe tāupoʻou. Pea hili ia naʻe ʻomi ia kituʻa ʻe heʻene tamaioʻeiki, pea ne songo ʻae matapā kiate ia.
19 And Tamar put ashes on her head and rent the garment of diuers colours which was on her, and layde her hand on her head, and went her way crying.
Pea naʻe pani ʻaki ʻe Tamaa ʻa hono ʻulu ʻae efuefu, pea naʻa ne haehae ʻa hono kofu pulepule ʻaia naʻa ne kofuʻaki, pea naʻa ne ʻai hono nima ki hono ʻulu, pea naʻa ne ʻalu pe mo tangi.
20 And Absalom her brother sayd vnto her, Hath Amnon thy brother bene with thee? Now yet be still, my sister: he is thy brother: let not this thing grieue thine heart. So Tamar remayned desolate in her brother Absaloms house.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ʻApisalomi ko hono tuongaʻane kiate ia, “Kuo ala [koā ]ʻa ʻAmanoni ko ho tuongaʻane kiate koe? Ka ko eni ʻa hoku tuofefine ke ke longo pe; he ko ho tuongaʻane ia; ʻoua naʻa ke tokanga ki he meʻa ni.” Ko ia naʻe nofo mamahi pe ʻa Tamaa ʻi he fale ʻo hono tuongaʻane ko ʻApisalomi.
21 But when King Dauid heard all these things, he was very wroth.
Ka ʻi heʻene fanongo ʻa Tevita ko e tuʻi ki he ngaahi meʻa ni, naʻe houhau ʻaupito ia.
22 And Absalom sayde vnto his brother Amnon neither good nor bad: for Absalom hated Amnon, because he had forced his sister Tamar.
Pea naʻe ʻikai ke moimoʻi lea ʻa ʻApisalomi ki hono tokoua ko ʻAmanoni ʻi he lelei pe ko e kovi: he naʻe fehiʻa ʻa ʻApisalomi kia ʻAmanoni, koeʻuhi ko ʻene tohotohoʻi ʻa hono tuofefine.
23 And after the time of two yeeres, Absalom had sheepesherers in Baal-hazor, which is beside Ephraim, and Absalom called all the Kings sonnes.
Pea hili ʻae taʻu kātoa ʻe ua naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, naʻe maʻu ʻe ʻApisalomi ʻae kau tangata kosi sipi ʻi Peali-Hasoa, ʻaia ʻoku ofi ki ʻIfalemi; pea naʻe talaki ki ai ʻae ngaahi foha kotoa pē ʻoe tuʻi.
24 And Absalom came to the King and sayd, Beholde now, thy seruant hath sheepesherers: I pray thee, that the King with his seruants would goe with thy seruant.
Pea naʻe haʻu ʻa ʻApisalomi ki he tuʻi, ʻo ne pehē, “Vakai eni, kuo ʻi hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ʻae kau tangata kosi sipi; ʻoku ou kole kiate koe, ke meʻa ʻae tuʻi pea mo ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki ke ʻalu mo ho tamaioʻeiki.”
25 But the King answered Absalom, Nay my sonne, I pray thee, let vs not goe all, lest we be chargeable vnto thee. Yet Absalom lay sore vpon him: howbeit he would not go, but thanked him.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tuʻi kia ʻApisalomi, “ʻE ʻikai, hoku foha, ʻoua naʻa tau ʻalu eni kotoa pē, telia naʻa mau fakamāfasia kiate koe.” Pea naʻa ne kole mālohi kiate ia; pea naʻe ʻikai te ne ʻalu mo ia, ka naʻa ne tāpuakiʻi ia.
26 Then sayd Absalom, But, I pray thee, shall not my brother Amnon goe with vs? And the king answered him, Why should he go with thee?
Pea naʻe toki pehē ai ʻe ʻApisalomi, “Ka kuo ʻikai, pea ʻoku ou kole kiate koe, tuku ke ʻalu ʻa ʻAmanoni mo kimautolu.” Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tuʻi kiate ia, “Ko e hā ka ʻalu ai ia mo koe?”
27 But Absalom was instant vpon him, and he sent Amnon with him, and all the Kings children.
Ka naʻe kole fakamātoato ʻe ʻApisalomi, ke ne tuku ʻa ʻAmanoni pea mo e ngaahi foha kotoa pē ʻoe tuʻi ke ʻalu mo ia.
28 Now had Absalom commanded his seruants, saying, Marke now when Amnons heart is merry with wine, and when I say vnto you, Smite Amnon, kill him, feare not, for haue not I commanded you? be bold therefore, and play the men.
Ka ko eni, kuo ʻosi hono tala ʻe ʻApisalomi ki heʻene kau tamaioʻeiki, ʻo pehē, “Mou vakai ʻoka fiefia ʻae loto ʻo ʻAmanoni ʻi he uaine, pea kau ka pehē ʻeau kiate kimoutolu, Tāʻi ʻa ʻAmanoni; mou toki tāmateʻi ia, ʻoua naʻa manavahē; ʻikai kuo u fekau ʻeau kiate kimoutolu? Mou lototoʻa pea fai mālohi.”
29 And the seruantes of Absalom did vnto Amnon, as Absalom had commanded: and al the Kings sonnes arose, and euery man gate him vp vpon his mule, and fled.
Pea naʻe fai ʻe he kau tamaioʻeiki ʻa ʻApisalomi kia ʻAmanoni ʻo hangē ko ia naʻe fekau ʻe ʻApisalomi. Pea naʻe tuʻu hake ai ʻae ngaahi foha ʻoe tuʻi, pea naʻe taki taha heka ʻae tangata ki heʻene miuli pea hola.
30 And while they were in the way, tydings came to Dauid, saying, Absalom hath slaine al the Kings sonnes, and there is not one of them left.
Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, lolotonga ʻenau ʻi he hala, naʻe ʻomi ʻae ongoongo kia Tevita, ʻo pehē, “Kuo tāmateʻi ʻe ʻApisalomi ʻae ngaahi foha kotoa pē ʻoe tuʻi, pea ʻoku ʻikai toe ha tokotaha ʻokinautolu.”
31 Then the King arose, and tare his garments, and lay on the ground, and all his seruants stoode by with their clothes rent.
Pea naʻe tuʻu hake ai ʻae tuʻi pea ne haehae ʻa hono ngaahi kofu, pea ne tō hifo ki he funga kelekele; pea naʻe tutuʻu ofi ai ʻa ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki kotoa pē pea kuo haehae ʻa honau ngaahi kofu.
32 And Ionadab the sonne of Shimeah Dauids brother answered and sayde, Let not my lord suppose that they haue slayne all the yong men the Kings sonnes: for Amnon onely is dead, because Absalom had reported so, since hee forced his sister Tamar.
Pea ko Sonatapi ko e foha ʻo Simia ko e tokoua ʻo Tevita, naʻe tali ʻe ia ʻo ne pehē, “Ke ʻoua naʻa mahalo ʻe hoku ʻeiki kuo nau tāmateʻi ʻae kau talavou kotoa pē ko e ngaahi foha ʻoe tuʻi; he ko ʻAmanoni pe tokotaha kuo mate; he kuo fakapapau ʻae meʻa ni mei he ngutu ʻo ʻApisalomi talu mei he ʻaho naʻe tohotoho ai ʻa Tamaa ko hono tuofefine.
33 Nowe therefore let not my lord the King take the thing so grieuously, to thinke that all ye Kings sonnes are dead: for Amnon only is dead.
Ko ia foki ke ʻoua naʻa mamahi fau ʻae loto ʻo hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi, ke ne mahalo kuo mate ʻae ngaahi foha kotoa pē ʻoe tuʻi: he ko ʻAmanoni pe tokotaha kuo mate.”
34 Then Absalom fled: and the yong man that kept the watch, lift vp his eyes, and looked, and behold, there came much people by the way of the hill side behinde him.
Ka naʻe hola ʻa ʻApisalomi. Pea naʻe hanga hake ʻe he tangata talavou ʻaia naʻe nofo ke leʻo, pea ne sio, pea vakai, naʻe haʻu ʻae kakai tokolahi ʻi he hala ʻi he tafaʻaki moʻunga ki mui ʻiate ia.
35 And Ionadab said vnto the King, Behold, ye Kings sonnes come: as thy seruant sayd, so it is.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sonatapi ki he tuʻi, “Vakai, ʻoku haʻu ʻae ngaahi foha ʻoe tuʻi: ʻo hangē ko ia naʻe lea ʻaki ʻe hoʻo tamaioʻeiki.”
36 And assoone as hee had left speaking, behold, the Kings sonnes came, and lift vp their voyces, and wept: and the King also and all his seruants wept exceedingly sore.
Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi heʻene fakaʻosi leva ʻe ia ʻa ʻene lea, vakai, naʻe hoko mai ʻae ngaahi foha ʻoe tuʻi pea naʻa nau hiki hake honau leʻo ʻo tangi: pea naʻe tangi lahi ʻaupito foki ʻae tuʻi pea mo ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki kotoa pē.
37 But Absalom fled away, and went to Talmai the sonne of Ammihur King of Geshur: and Dauid mourned for his sonne euery day.
Ka naʻe hola ʻa ʻApisalomi, ʻo ne ʻalu kia Talimei, ko e foha ʻo ʻAmihuti ko e tuʻi ʻo Kesuli. Pea naʻe loto mamahi [ʻa Tevita ]ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē koeʻuhi ko hono foha.
38 So Absalom fled, and went to Geshur, and was there three yeeres.
Ko ia, naʻe hola ʻa ʻApisalomi, ʻo ne ʻalu ki Kesuli, pea naʻa ne ʻi ai ʻi he taʻu ʻe tolu.
39 And King Dauid desired to go forth vnto Absalom, because he was pacified concerning Amnon, seeing he was dead.
Pea naʻe holi tuʻu pe ʻa Tevita ke ne ʻalu atu kia ʻApisalomi: he kuo fakafiemālieʻi ia ʻia ʻAmanoni, koeʻuhi ko ʻene pekia.
