1 Chronicles 12
1 Now these are they that came to David to Ziklag, while he yet kept himself close because of Saul the son of Kish: and they were among the mighty men, his helpers in war.
Ko kinautolu eni naʻe haʻu kia Tevita ki Sikilaki lolotonga ʻa ʻene kei fakafufū ia koeʻuhi ko Saula ko e foha ʻo Kisi: pea naʻa nau kau mo e kau tangata toʻa, ko e kau tokoni ʻi he tau.
2 They were armed with bows, and could use both the right hand and the left in slinging stones and in shooting arrows from the bow; they were of Saul’s brethren of Benjamin.
Ko honau mahafutau ʻae kaufana, pea naʻa nau faʻa ngāueʻaki honau nima toʻomataʻu mo honau toʻohema ʻi he lī ʻae maka mo e fanaʻi ʻae ngahau mei he kaufana, pea naʻa nau ʻoe kāinga ʻo Saula ʻia Penisimani.
3 The chief was Ahiezer, then Joash, the sons of Shemaah the Gibeathite; and Jeziel, and Pelet, the sons of Azmaveth; and Beracah, and Jehu the Anathothite;
Ko ia naʻe ʻeiki hake ko ʻAhiesa, pea hoko mo ia ʻa Soasi, ko e ongo foha ʻo Simaʻa ko e tangata Kipea; mo Sisieli, mo Peleti, ko e ongo foha ʻo ʻAsimaveti; mo Pilaka, mo Sehu ko e tangata ʻAnatoti,
4 and Ishmaiah the Gibeonite, a mighty man among the thirty and over the thirty; and Jeremiah, and Jahaziel, and Johanan, and Jozabad the Gederathite;

8 And of the Gadites there separated themselves unto David to the hold in the wilderness, mighty men of valour, men trained for war, that could handle shield and spear; whose faces were like the faces of lions, and they were as swift as the roes upon the mountains;
Pea naʻe ai ʻae kakai Kata naʻe mavahe ʻakinautolu kia Tevita ke [nofo ]mo ia ʻi he potu mālohi ʻi he toafa, ko e kau tangata mālohi, mo e kau tangata ngalingali mo e fai ʻae tau, naʻa nau faʻa toʻo ʻae pā pea mo e tao, pea naʻe tatau ʻa honau mata mo e mata ʻoe fanga laione, pea naʻa nau veʻevave ʻo hangē ko e fanga tia ʻi he funga moʻunga;
9 Ezer the chief, Obadiah the second, Eliab the third;
Ko e ʻuluaki ʻa Eseli, ko hono toko ua ʻa ʻOpataia, ko hono toko tolu ʻa ʻIliapi,
10 Mishmannah the fourth; Jeremiah the fifth;
Ko hono toko fā ʻa Misimani, ko hono toko nima ʻa Selemaia,
11 Attai the sixth, Eliel the seventh;
Ko hono toko ono ʻa ʻAtai, ko hono toko fitu ʻa Ilieli.

Ko hono toko valu ʻa Sohanani, ko hono toko hiva ʻa Elisapati.
13 Jeremiah the tenth, Machbannai the eleventh.
Ko hono toko hongofulu ʻa Selemaia, pea ko hono toko hongofulu ma taha ʻa Makipanai.
14 These of the sons of Gad were captains of the host: he that was least was equal to an hundred, and the greatest to a thousand.
Ko e ngaahi foha eni ʻo Kata, naʻe ʻeiki pule ki he kautau: ko ia naʻe siʻi hifo ʻiate kinautolu naʻe pule ki he toko teau, pea ko ia naʻe lahi hake naʻe pule ki he toko afe.
15 These are they that went over Jordan in the first month, when it had overflown all its banks; and they put to flight all them of the valleys, both toward the east, and toward the west.
Ko kinautolu eni naʻe ʻalu atu ʻi he Soatani ʻi he ʻuluaki māhina, lolotonga ʻa ʻene malofa atu ʻae vai ki hono kau vai kotoa pē; pea naʻa nau tuli ʻakinautolu kotoa pē naʻe nofo ʻi he ngaahi teleʻa, ki he feituʻu hahake, pea ki he lulunga.
16 And there came of the children of Benjamin and Judah to the hold unto David.
Pea naʻe haʻu foki ha niʻihi mei he fānau ʻa Penisimani mo Siuta ki he kolo mālohi kia Tevita.
17 And David went out to meet them, and answered and said unto them, If ye be come peaceably unto me to help me, mine heart shall be knit unto you: but if [ye be come] to betray me to mine adversaries, seeing there is no wrong in mine hands, the God of our fathers look thereon, and rebuke it.
Pea naʻe ʻalu atu ʻa Tevita ke fakafetaulaki kiate kinautolu, pea naʻa ne lea ʻo pehē kiate kinautolu, “Kapau kuo mou omi fakamelino pe kiate au ke tokoni kiate au, ʻe kautaha ʻa hoku loto mo kimoutolu: ka ko eni, kapau kuo mou haʻu ke lavakiʻi au ki hoku ngaahi fili, ka ʻoku ʻikai ha fai fakamālohi ʻi hoku nima, ke ʻafioʻi ia ʻe he ʻOtua ʻoe tau ngaahi tamai, pea ne valoki ia.”
18 Then the spirit came upon Amasai, who was chief of the thirty, [and he said], Thine are we, David, and on thy side, thou son of Jesse: peace, peace be unto thee, and peace be to thine helpers; for thy God helpeth thee. Then David received them, and made them captains of the band.
Pea naʻe toki hoko ʻae Laumālie kia ʻAmasai ʻaia naʻe ʻeiki hake ʻi he ngaahi ʻeikitau, [pea naʻa ne pehē], “ʻOku ʻoʻou [ʻakimautolu], ʻe Tevita, pea ʻoku [mau ]kau kiate koe, ʻa koe ko e foha ʻo Sese: ke melino, ke melino pe koe, pea ke melino ʻakinautolu ʻoku tokoni kiate koe; he ʻoku tokoni ʻe ho ʻOtua kiate koe. Pea naʻe toki maʻu ʻakinautolu ʻe Tevita, pea naʻa ne fakanofo ʻakinautolu ko e ngaahi ʻeikitau ki he kongakau.
19 Of Manasseh also there fell away some to David, when he came with the Philistines against Saul to battle, but they helped them not: for the lords of the Philistines upon advisement sent him away, saying, He will fall away to his master Saul to the jeopardy of our heads.
Pea naʻe tō mai kia Tevita ha niʻihi meia Manase, ʻi heʻene omi fakataha mo e kakai Filisitia ke tauʻi ʻa Saula: ka naʻe ʻikai maʻu ʻekinautolu ʻenau tokoni: he naʻe loto ʻae houʻeiki ʻoe kau Filisitia ke ne ʻalu, ʻonau pehē, “ʻE kau atu ia ki heʻene ʻeiki ko Saula, pea [ʻe tuʻutāmaki ai ]ʻa hotau ʻulu ʻotautolu.”
20 As he went to Ziklag, there fell to him of Manasseh, Adnah, and Jozabad, and Jediael, and Michael, and Jozabad, and Elihu, and Zillethai, captains of thousands that were of Manasseh.
Lolotonga ʻa ʻene ʻalu ki Sikilaki, naʻe hoko mai kiate ia meia Manase, ʻa ʻAtina, mo Sosapati, mo Sitieli, mo Mikaeli, mo Sosapati, mo Ilihu, mo Silitei, ko e ngaahi ʻeiki pule [ʻakinautolu ]ki he ngaahi toko afe ʻo Manase.
21 And they helped David against the band of rovers: for they were all mighty men of valour, and were captains in the host.
Pea naʻa nau tokoni ʻa Tevita ʻaki ha kautau: he ko e kau tangata toʻa lahi ʻaupito ʻakinautolu kotoa pē, pea ko e ngaahi ʻeiki pule ʻakinautolu ʻi he kautau.
22 For from day to day there came to David to help him, until it was a great host, like the host of God.
He ko e kuonga ko ia naʻe haʻu ai [ʻae kakai ]kia Tevita ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē ke tokoni kiate ia, pea naʻe fakaʻaʻau ʻo fuʻu tokolahi ʻa ʻene kautau, ʻo hangē ko e kautau ʻoe ʻOtua.
23 And these are the numbers of the heads of them that were armed for war, which came to David to Hebron, to turn the kingdom of Saul to him, according to the word of the LORD.
Pea ko hono lau eni ʻoe ngaahi kongakau naʻe tali teuteu ki he tau, mo nau omi kia Tevita ʻi Hepeloni, ke liliu ʻae puleʻanga ʻo Saula kiate ia, ʻo tatau mo e folofola ʻa Sihova.

28 and Zadok, a young man mighty of valour, and of his father’s house twenty and two captains.
Mo Satoki, ko e tangata talavou naʻe mālohi mo toʻa lahi, pea mei he fale ʻo ʻene tamai ʻae ngaahi ʻeikitau ʻe toko uofulu ma ua.
29 And of the children of Benjamin, the brethren of Saul, three thousand: for hitherto the greatest part of them had kept their allegiance to the house of Saul.
Pea ʻoe fānau ʻa Penisimani, ko e kāinga ʻo Saula, ko e toko tolu afe: he naʻe fai ʻo aʻu ki he kuonga ko ia ʻe honau tokolahi, ʻae tauhi ʻi he fale ʻo Saula.

31 And of the half tribe of Manasseh eighteen thousand, which were expressed by name, to come and make David king.
Pea mei hono vahe ua ʻoe faʻahinga ʻo Manase [naʻe haʻu ]ʻae tokotaha mano mo e valungeau, ʻaia naʻe lau honau hingoa, ke haʻu ʻo fakanofo ʻa Tevita ke tuʻi.

ʻOe fānau ʻa Sepuloni, ʻakinautolu naʻe ʻalu atu ki he tau, mo poto ʻi he tau, ʻi he ngaahi mahafutau kotoa pē, ko e toko nima mano, ʻaia naʻe faʻa tutuʻu fakataha lelei ʻi he tau: naʻe ʻikai te nau lotolotoua.

Pea ʻi he kau vai ʻe taha ʻo Soatani, ʻoe kau Lupeni, mo e kau Kata, pea mei hono vahe ua ʻoe faʻahinga ʻo Manase, ko e tokotaha kilu mo e ua mano, naʻe toʻo ʻae ngaahi mahafutau kehekehe ʻi he tau.
38 All these, being men of war, that could order the battle array, came with a perfect heart to Hebron, to make David king over all Israel: and all the rest also of Israel were of one heart to make David king.
Ko e kau tangata faʻa tau eni kotoa pē, naʻe faʻa tutuʻu lelei, pea naʻa nau omi kia Tevita ʻi he loto moʻoni ki Hepeloni, ke fakanofo ʻa Tevita ke tuʻi ki ʻIsileli kātoa: pea ko hono toe foki [ʻoe kakai ]ʻi ʻIsileli naʻe loto taha pe ke fakanofo ʻa Tevita ke tuʻi.
39 And they were there with David three days, eating and drinking: for their brethren had made preparation for them.
