1 Samuel 19
1 And Saul spoke to Jonathan his son, and to all his servants, that they should slay David; but Jonathan Saul's son delighted much in David.
Pea naʻe lea ʻa Saula kia Sonatane ko hono foha, pea ki heʻene kau tamaioʻeiki kotoa pē, koeʻuhi kenau tāmateʻi ʻa Tevita.
2 And Jonathan told David, saying: 'Saul my father seeketh to slay thee; now therefore, I pray thee, take heed to thyself in the morning, and abide in a secret place, and hide thyself.
Ka naʻe loto lelei lahi ʻa Sonatane ko e foha ʻo Saula kia Tevita: pea naʻe fakahā ʻe Sonatane kia Tevita, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku fai ʻe Saula ko ʻeku tamai ke ne tāmateʻi koe: pea ko eni, ʻoku ou kole kiate koe, ke ke vakai kiate koe ke ʻoua ke pongipongi, pea nofo ʻi ha potu lilo, ʻo toitoiʻi koe:
3 And I will go out and stand beside my father in the field where thou art, and I will speak with my father of thee; and if I see aught, I will tell thee.'
Pea te u ʻalu ʻo tuʻu ofi ki heʻeku tamai ʻi he ngoue ʻaia ʻoku ke ʻi ai, pea te ma alea mo ʻeku tamai kiate koe; pea ko ia teu mamata ki ai, teu tala kiate koe.
4 And Jonathan spoke good of David unto Saul his father, and said unto him: 'Let not the king sin against his servant, against David; because he hath not sinned against thee, and because his work hath been very good towards thee;
Pea naʻe lea lelei ʻa Sonatane ki heʻene tamai ko Saula kia Tevita, ʻo ne pehē, “Ke ʻoua naʻa fai ha kovi ʻe he tuʻi ki heʻene tamaioʻeiki ko Tevita; koeʻuhi kuo ʻikai te ne fai angahala kiate koe pea koeʻuhi ko ʻene ngaahi ngāue kuo lelei ʻaupito kiate koe:
5 for he put his life in his hand, and smote the Philistine, and the LORD wrought a great victory for all Israel; thou sawest it, and didst rejoice; wherefore then wilt thou sin against innocent blood, to slay David without a cause?'
He naʻa ne ʻai ʻene moʻui ki hono nima, pea ne tāmateʻi ʻae tangata Filisitia, pea naʻe fai ʻe Sihova ʻae fakamoʻui lahi maʻa ʻIsileli: naʻa ke vakaiʻi ia: pea ne ke fiefia ai: pea ko e hā ai te ke fai angahala ai ki he toto angatonu, ke tāmateʻi ʻa Tevita taʻehanotuʻunga?”
6 And Saul hearkened unto the voice of Jonathan; and Saul swore: 'As the LORD liveth, he shall not be put to death.'
Pea naʻe tokanga ʻa Saula ki he leʻo ʻo Sonatane: pea fuakava ʻa Saula, ʻI he moʻui ʻa Sihova ʻe ʻikai tāmateʻi ia.
7 And Jonathan called David, and Jonathan told him all those things. And Jonathan brought David to Saul, and he was in his presence, as beforetime.
Pea naʻe ui ʻe Sonatane ʻa Tevita, pea fakahā ʻe Sonatane kiate ia ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni. Pea naʻe ʻomi ʻe Sonatane ʻa Tevita kia Saula, pea naʻe ʻi hono ʻao ia ʻo hangē ko ʻene ʻi ai ʻi muʻa.
8 And there was war again; and David went out, and fought with the Philistines, and slew them with a great slaughter; and they fled before him.
Pea naʻe toe hoko ʻae tau: pea ʻalu ai ʻa Tevita ʻo tauʻi ʻae kakai Filisitia, pea ne taaʻi ʻakinautolu ʻi he tāmateʻi lahi; pea naʻa nau hola meiate ia.
9 And an evil spirit from the LORD was upon Saul, as he sat in his house with his spear in his hand; and David was playing with his hand.
Pea naʻe ʻia Saula ʻae laumālie kovi meia Sihova, ʻi heʻene nofo ʻi hono fale mo e tao ʻi hono nima: pea naʻe tā [ʻene meʻa ]ʻe Tevita ʻaki hono nima.
10 And Saul sought to smite David even to the wall with the spear; but he slipped away out of Saul's presence, and he smote the spear into the wall; and David fled, and escaped that night.
Pea naʻe feinga ʻa Saula ke ne veloʻi ʻa Tevita ki he holisi ʻaki ʻae tao; ka naʻe kalo mālie ʻa Tevita, pea velo ʻo tau ʻae tao ki he holisi: pea naʻe hola ʻa Tevita ʻo hao mei hono ʻao ʻi he pō ko ia.
11 And Saul sent messengers unto David's house, to watch him, and to slay him in the morning; and Michal David's wife told him, saying: 'If thou save not thy life to-night, to-morrow thou shalt be slain.'
Pea naʻe fekau ʻe Saula ʻae kau tangata fekau ki he fale ʻo Tevita, ke lamasi ia, pea kenau tāmateʻi ia ʻi he pongipongi: pea naʻe tala ʻe Mikale ko e uaifi ʻo Tevita kiate ia, ʻo pehē, “Kapau ʻe ʻikai te ke fakahaofi hoʻo moʻui he poōni, ʻe tāmateʻi koe ʻapongipongi.”
12 So Michal let David down through the window; and he went, and fled, and escaped.
Ko ia naʻe tukutuku hifo ai ʻe Mikale ʻa Tevita mei he matapā sioʻata: pea naʻe ʻalu ia, pea hola ʻo hao.
13 And Michal took the teraphim, and laid it in the bed, and put a quilt of goats' hair at the head thereof, and covered it with a cloth.
Pea naʻe toʻo ʻe Mikale ʻae meʻa fakatātā ʻo tuku ia ki he mohenga, pea ne ʻai ʻae ʻolunga ko e fulufuluʻi kosi ke ʻolunga ʻaki, ʻo ne ʻufiʻufi ʻaki ia ʻae kafu.
14 And when Saul sent messengers to take David, she said: 'He is sick.'
Pea ʻi he fekau ʻa Saula ʻae kau talafekau ke puke ʻa Tevita, naʻe pehē ʻe ia, ʻOku mahaki ia.
15 And Saul sent the messengers to see David, saying: 'Bring him up to me in the bed, that I may slay him.'
Pea naʻe toe fekau ʻe Saula ʻae kau talafekau kenau mamata kia Tevita, ʻo pehē, “Mou ʻomi ia kiate au ʻi hono mohenga, koeʻuhi ke u tāmateʻi ia.”
16 And when the messengers came in, behold, the teraphim was in the bed, with the quilt of goats' hair at the head thereof.
Pea ʻi he hū ki loto ʻae kau tangata talafekau, vakai, naʻe ʻi he mohenga ʻae meʻa fakatātā mo e ʻolunga kuo ngaohi ʻaki ʻae fulufuluʻi kosi.
17 And Saul said unto Michal: 'Why hast thou deceived me thus, and let mine enemy go, that he is escaped?' And Michal answered Saul: 'He said unto me: Let me go; why should I kill thee?'
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Saula kia Mikale, “Ko e hā kuo ke kākā pehē ai au, mo ke fekau ki hoku fili ke ʻalu, pea kuo ne hao?” Pea pehē ʻe Mikale kia Saula, naʻe pehē mai ʻe ia, Tuku ke u ʻalu; he ko e hā te u tāmateʻi ai koe?”
18 Now David fled, and escaped, and came to Samuel to Ramah, and told him all that Saul had done to him. And he and Samuel went and dwelt in Naioth.
Ko ia naʻe hola pea hao ʻa Tevita, ʻo ne ʻalu kia Samuela ki Lama, ʻo ne tala kiate ia ʻaia kotoa pē kuo fai ʻe Saula kiate ia. Pea naʻa na ō mo Samuela ʻo nofo ʻi Naoti.
19 And it was told Saul, saying: 'Behold, David is at Naioth in Ramah.'
Pea naʻe tala kia Saula, ʻo pehē, Vakai, ʻoku ʻi Naoti ʻa Tevita ʻi Lama.
20 And Saul sent messengers to take David; and when they saw the company of the prophets prophesying, and Samuel standing as head over them, the spirit of God came upon the messengers of Saul, and they also prophesied.
Pea naʻe fekau ʻe Saula ʻae kau tangata ke puke ʻa Tevita: pea ʻi heʻenau mamata ki he kau palōfita ʻoku malanga, kae tuʻu ʻa Samuela ʻaia ko honau tauhi, naʻe hoko ʻae laumālie ʻoe ʻOtua ki he kau tangata fekau ʻa Saula, pea malanga foki mo kinautolu.
21 And when it was told Saul, he sent other messengers, and they also prophesied. And Saul sent messengers again the third time, and they also prophesied.
Pea ʻi he fakahā ia kia Saula, naʻa ne fekau atu ʻae kau tangata kehe, pea naʻe malanga ʻakinautolu foki. Pea naʻe ʻave ʻe Saula ʻae kau tangata fekau ho hono liunga tolu, pea naʻa nau malanga foki.
22 Then went he also to Ramah, and came to the great cistern that is in Secu; and he asked and said: 'Where are Samuel and David?' And one said: 'Behold, they are at Naioth in Ramah.'
Pea naʻe toki ʻalu ia foki ki Lama pea hoko atu ki he fuʻu luo vai ʻaia ʻoku ʻi Sikiu: pea naʻe fehuʻi ʻe ia ʻo pehē, “ʻOku ʻi fē ʻa Samuela mo Tevita?” Pea pehē ʻe he tokotaha, Vakai, ʻoku na ʻi Naoti ʻi Lama.
23 And he went thither to Naioth in Ramah; and the spirit of God came upon him also, and he went on, and prophesied, until he came to Naioth in Ramah.
Pea ne ʻalu ki ai ki Naoti ʻi Lama: pea hoko kiate ia foki ʻae Laumālie ʻoe ʻOtua, pea naʻe ʻalu pe ia, ʻo malanga, ʻo feʻunga mo ʻene hoko ki Naoti ʻi Lama.
24 And he also stripped off his clothes, and he also prophesied before Samuel, and lay down naked all that day and all that night. Wherefore they say: 'Is Saul also among the prophets?'
Pea naʻa ne toʻo foki hono ngaahi kofu, ʻo malanga pehē pē ʻi he ʻao ʻo Samuela, pea naʻe tokoto hifo taʻekofu ia ʻi he ʻaho kotoa ko ia mo e pō kotoa ko ia. Ko e tupunga ia ʻoe pehē, “He kuo kau ʻa Saula foki mo e kau palōfita?”
