1 Kings 16

1 And the word of the LORD came to Jehu the son of Hanani against Baasha, saying,

Naʻe toki hoko mai ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova kia Sehu ko e foha ʻo Hanani, koeʻuhi ko Paʻasa, ʻo pehē,

2 Forasmuch as I exalted thee out of the dust, and made thee prince over my people Israel; and thou hast walked in the way of Jeroboam, and hast made my people Israel to sin, to provoke me to anger with their sins;

“Koeʻuhi naʻaku hakeakiʻi koe mei he efu, ʻo ngaohi koe ko e ʻeiki ki hoku kakai ko ʻIsileli; pea kuo ke ʻalu koe ʻi he hala ʻo Selopoami, pea kuo ke fakaangahalaʻi ʻa hoku kakai ʻIsileli ke nau fakatupu ʻae houhau ʻiate au ki heʻenau ngaahi angahala;

3 behold, I will utterly sweep away Baasha and his house; and I will make thy house like the house of Jeroboam the son of Nebat.

Vakai, te u fetuku atu ʻae hako ʻo Paʻasa, mo e hako ʻo hono fale; pea [te u ]ngaohi ho fale ke hangē ko e fale ʻo Selopoami ko e foha ʻo Nipati.

4 Him that dieth of Baasha in the city shall the dogs eat; and him that dieth of his in the field shall the fowls of the air eat.

Ko ia ʻia Paʻasa ʻoku mate ʻi he kolo ʻe kai ia ʻe he fanga kulī; pea ko ia ʻoku ʻaʻana ʻe mate ʻi he ngoue ʻe keina ʻe he fanga manupuna ʻoe ʻatā.”

5 Now the rest of the acts of Baasha, and what he did, and his might, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?

Pea ko eni ko e toe ʻoe ngaahi ngāue ʻa Paʻasa, mo ia naʻa ne fai, mo ʻene mālohi, ʻikai kuo tohi ia ʻi he tohi fakamatala ki he ngaahi tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli?

6 And Baasha slept with his fathers, and was buried in Tirzah; and Elah his son reigned in his stead.

Ko ia naʻe mohe ʻa Paʻasa mo ʻene ngaahi tamai, pea naʻe fai hono putu ʻi Tilisa: pea naʻe pule ʻa Ela ko hono foha, ko hono fetongi.

7 And moreover by the hand of the prophet Jehu the son of Hanani came the word of the LORD against Baasha, and against his house, both because of all the evil that he did in the sight of the LORD, to provoke him to anger with the work of his hands, in being like the house of Jeroboam, and because he smote him.

Pea naʻe ʻomi foki ʻi he nima ʻoe palōfita ko Sehu ko e foha ʻo Hanani, ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova kia Paʻasa, pea ki hono fale ʻoʻona; ʻio, ko e meʻa ʻi he kovi kotoa pē naʻa ne fai ʻe ia ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, ʻi he fakatupu ʻene houhau ki he ngāue ʻa hono nima, ko e meʻa ʻi heʻene tatau mo e fale ʻo Selopoami; pea koeʻuhi ko ʻene tāmateʻi ia.

8 In the twenty and sixth year of Asa king of Judah began Elah the son of Baasha to reign over Israel in Tirzah, [and reigned] two years.

ʻI hono uofulu ma ono ʻoe taʻu ʻa ʻAsa ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta naʻe kamata ʻe Ela ko e foha ʻo Paʻasa ke pule ki ʻIsileli ʻi Tilisa, ʻi he taʻu ʻe ua.

9 And his servant Zimri, captain of half his chariots, conspired against him: now he was in Tirzah, drinking himself drunk in the house of Arza, which was over the household in Tirzah:

Pea naʻe lapasi ia ʻe heʻene tamaioʻeiki ko Simili, ko e ʻeiki naʻe pule ki hono vahe ua mālie ʻo ʻene ngaahi saliote, lolotonga ʻa ʻene ʻi Tilisa, mo ʻene inu ke kona ʻi he fale ʻo ʻAlisa ko e tauhi ʻo hono fale ʻi Tilisa.

10 and Zimri went in and smote him, and killed him, in the twenty and seventh year of Asa king of Judah, and reigned in his stead.

He naʻe hū atu ʻa Simili ʻo ne taaʻi ia ke ne mate, ʻi hono uofulu ma fitu ʻoe taʻu ʻa ʻAsa ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta, mo ne fetongi ia ʻi he pule.

11 And it came to pass, when he began to reign, as soon as he sat on his throne, that he smote all the house of Baasha: he left him not a single man child, neither of his kinsfolks, nor of his friends.

Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi heʻene kamata pule, ʻi heʻene nofo hifo leva ki hono nofoʻa fakatuʻi, naʻa ne tāmateʻi ʻae kaungā fale kotoa pē ʻo Paʻasa: naʻe ʻikai te ne fakatoe ha tangata ʻe tokotaha kiate ia, ʻi hono kāinga moʻoni, pe ʻi hono kāinga kehe.

12 Thus did Zimri destroy all the house of Baasha, according to the word of the LORD, which he spake against Baasha by Jehu the prophet,

naʻe pehē ʻae fakaʻauha ʻe Simili ʻae fale kotoa pē ʻo Paʻasa, ʻo hangē ko e folofola ʻa Sihova, ʻaia naʻa ne folofolaʻaki kia Paʻasa ʻia Sehu, ko e palōfita,

13 for all the sins of Baasha, and the sins of Elah his son, which they sinned, and wherewith they made Israel to sin, to provoke the LORD, the God of Israel, to anger with their vanities.

Koeʻuhi ko e angahala kotoa pē ʻa Paʻasa, mo e angahala ʻa Ela ko hono foha, ʻaia naʻa na halaia ai, mo na fakaangahala ai ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻi he fakatupu ʻae houhau ʻa Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli ki heʻenau ngaahi meʻa vaʻinga.

14 Now the rest of the acts of Elah, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?

Pea ko eni ko e toe ʻoe ngaahi ngāue ʻa Ela, mo ia kotoa pē naʻa ne fai, ʻikai kuo tohi ia ʻi he tohi fakamatala ki he ngaahi tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli?

15 In the twenty and seventh year of Asa king of Judah did Zimri reign seven days in Tirzah. Now the people were encamped against Gibbethon, which belonged to the Philistines.

ʻI hono uofulu ma fitu ʻoe taʻu ʻa ʻAsa ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta naʻe pule ʻa Simili ʻi he ʻaho ʻe fitu ʻi Tilisa. Pea naʻe nofo ʻapitanga ʻae kakai ke tauʻi ʻa Kipitoni, ʻaia naʻe ʻoe kakai Filisitia.

16 And the people that were encamped heard say, Zimri hath conspired, and hath also smitten the king: wherefore all Israel made Omri, the captain of the host, king over Israel that day in the camp.

Pea naʻe fanongo ʻe he kakai ʻi he ʻapitanga, ki he talanoa, ʻo pehē, Kuo fai ʻae lapa ʻe Simili, pea kuo ne tāmateʻi foki ʻae tuʻi: ko ia naʻe fai ʻe ʻIsileli kātoa ke fakanofo ʻa Omili, ko e ʻeiki pule ʻoe kautau, ke ne tuʻi ki ʻIsileli ʻi he ʻaho ko ia ʻi he ʻapitanga.

17 And Omri went up from Gibbethon, and all Israel with him, and they besieged Tirzah.

Pea naʻe ʻalu hake ʻa Omili mei Kipitoni ʻaia mo ʻIsileli kātoa mo ia, pea naʻa nau kāpui ʻa Tilisa ʻaki ʻae tau.

18 And it came to pass, when Zimri saw that the city was taken, that he went into the castle of the king’s house, and burnt the king’s house over him with fire, and died,

Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi heʻene mamata ʻe Simili kuo kapa ʻae kolo, naʻa ne hū atu ki he potu māʻolunga ʻoe fale ʻoe tuʻi, pea naʻa ne tungia ʻae fale ʻoe tuʻi, pea ne mate ai,

19 for his sins which he sinned in doing that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, in walking in the way of Jeroboam, and in his sin which he did, to make Israel to sin.

Ko e meʻa ʻi heʻene ngaahi angahala ʻaia naʻa ne fai hala ai mo fai kovi ai ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, mo ne ʻalu ʻi he hala ʻo Selopoami, pea ʻi heʻene angahala ʻaʻana ʻaia naʻa ne fai ke ne fakaangahalaʻi ʻa ʻIsileli.

20 Now the rest of the acts of Zimri, and his treason that he wrought, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?

Pea ko eni ko e toe ʻoe ngaahi ngāue ʻa Simili, pea mo ʻene angatuʻu ʻaia naʻa ne fai, ʻikai kuo tohi ia ʻi he tohi fakamatala ki he ngaahi tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli?

21 Then were the people of Israel divided into two parts: half of the people followed Tibni the son of Ginath, to make him king; and half followed Omri.

Pea naʻe vahe ua ʻae kakai ʻIsileli: ko hono vahe ʻe taha ʻoe kakai naʻe muimui kia Tipini ko e foha ʻo Kinati, ke fakanofo ia ko e tuʻi; ka ko hono vahe ʻe taha naʻe muimui kia Omili.

22 But the people that followed Omri prevailed against the people that followed Tibni the son of Ginath: so Tibni died, and Omri reigned.

Ka naʻe mālohi hake ʻae kakai naʻe muimui kia Omili ki he kakai naʻe muimui kia Tipini ko e foha ʻo Kinati: pea naʻe mate ʻa Tipini kae pule ʻa Omili.

23 In the thirty and first year of Asa king of Judah began Omri to reign over Israel, [and reigned] twelve years: six years reigned he in Tirzah.

ʻI hono tolungofulu ma taha ʻoe taʻu ʻa ʻAsa ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta naʻe kamata ʻae pule ʻa Omili ki ʻIsileli, ʻi he taʻu ʻe hongofulu ma ua: naʻe pule ia ʻi he taʻu ʻe ono ʻe Tilisa.

24 And he bought the hill Samaria of Shemer for two talents of silver; and he built on the hill, and called the name of the city which he built, after the name of Shemer, the owner of the hill, Samaria.

Pea naʻa ne fakatau ʻae moʻunga ʻo Samēlia meia Semeli ʻaki ʻae taleniti ʻe ua ʻoe siliva, pea naʻa ne fai ʻae langa ʻi he moʻunga, ʻo ne fakahingoa ʻae kolo naʻa ne langa, ki he hingoa ʻo Semeli ʻaia naʻe ʻoʻona ʻae moʻunga, ko Samēlia.

25 And Omri did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, and dealt wickedly above all that were before him.

Ka naʻe fai kovi ʻa Omili ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, ʻo ne fai ʻo kovi lahi hake ʻiate kinautolu kotoa pē naʻe muʻa ʻiate ia.

26 For he walked in all the way of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, and in his sins wherewith he made Israel to sin, to provoke the LORD, the God of Israel, to anger with their vanities.

He naʻa ne ʻalu ʻi he hala ʻo Selopoami ko e foha ʻo Nipati, pea ki heʻene angahala ʻaʻana ʻaia naʻa ne fakaangahala ai ʻa ʻIsileli, ke fakatupu ai ʻae houhau ʻa Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli ʻi heʻenau ngaahi meʻa vaʻinga.

27 Now the rest of the acts of Omri which he did, and his might that he shewed, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?

Pea ko eni ko e toe ʻoe ngaahi ngāue ʻa Omili ʻaia naʻa ne fai, mo ʻene mālohi naʻa ne fakahā, ʻikai kuo tohi ia ʻi he tohi fakamatala ki he ngaahi tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli?

28 So Omri slept with his fathers, and was buried in Samaria: and Ahab his son reigned in his stead.

Pea pehē, naʻe mohe ʻa Omili mo ʻene ngaahi tamai, pea naʻe fai hono putu ʻi Samēlia: pea naʻe pule ʻa ʻEhapi ko hono foha, ko hono fetongi.

29 And in the thirty and eighth year of Asa king of Judah began Ahab the son of Omri to reign over Israel: and Ahab the son of Omri reigned over Israel in Samaria twenty and two years.

Pea ʻi hono tolungofulu ma valu ʻoe taʻu ʻa ʻAsa ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta, naʻe kamata pule ki ʻIsileli ʻa ʻEhapi ko e foha ʻo Omili: pea naʻe pule ʻa ʻEhapi ko e foha ʻo Omili ki ʻIsileli, ʻi Samēlia, ʻi he taʻu ʻe uofulu ma ua.

30 And Ahab the son of Omri did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD above all that were before him.

Pea naʻe fai kovi ʻa ʻEhapi ko e foha ʻo Omili ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova ʻo lahi hake ʻiate kinautolu kotoa pē naʻe muʻa ʻiate ia.

31 And it came to pass, as if it had been a light thing for him to walk in the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, that he took to wife Jezebel the daughter of Ethbaal king of the Zidonians, and went and served Baal, and worshipped him.

Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, hangē ko e meʻa maʻamaʻa ia ʻa ʻene ʻalu ʻi he ngaahi angahala ʻa Selopoami ko e foha ʻo Nipati, he naʻa ne fili mai ke mali mo ia ʻa Sisipeli, ko e ʻofefine ʻo ʻEtipeali ko e tuʻi ʻoe kakai Saitoni, ʻo ne ʻalu ʻo tauhi kia Peali, ʻo ne lotu ki ai.

32 And he reared up an altar for Baal in the house of Baal, which he had built in Samaria.

Pea naʻa ne fokotuʻu hake ha feilaulauʻanga kia Peali ʻi he fale ʻo Peali ʻaia naʻa ne langa hake ʻi Samēlia.

33 And Ahab made the Asherah; and Ahab did yet more to provoke the LORD, the God of Israel, to anger than all the kings of Israel that were before him.

Pea naʻe ngaohi ʻe ʻEhapi ha vao tapu; pea naʻe lahi hake ʻae meʻa naʻe fai ʻe ʻEhapi ke fakatupu ʻae houhau ʻa Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli [ʻi he meʻa naʻe fai ]ʻe he ngaahi tuʻi kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli naʻe ʻi muʻa ʻiate ia.

34 In his days did Hiel the Beth-elite build Jericho: he laid the foundation thereof with the loss of Abiram his firstborn, and set up the gates thereof with the loss of his youngest son Segub; according to the word of the LORD, which he spake by the hand of Joshua the son of Nun.

‌ʻI hono ngaahi ʻaho ʻoʻona naʻe langa hake ʻa Seliko ʻe Ieli ko e tangata Peteli: naʻa ne ʻai hono tuʻunga kae mate ʻa ʻApilami ko hono ʻuluaki fānau, pea naʻa ne fokotuʻu ʻa hono ngaahi matapā kae mate ʻa hono foha ki mui ko Sikupi, ʻo hangē ko e folofola ʻa Sihova, ʻaia naʻa ne folofolaʻaki ʻia Siosiua ko e foha ʻo Nuni.
