20 ʻI he hili iá, naʻe haʻu ʻa e kau Mōapé+ mo e kau ʻĀmoní,+ fakataha mo e niʻihi ʻo e kau ʻAmonimí* ke tauʻi ʻa Sihosafate. 2 Ko ia naʻe tala kia Sihosafate: “Kuo haʻu ha fuʻu kakai ke tauʻi koe mei he feituʻu ʻo e tahí,* mei ʻĪtomi,+ pea ko kinautolu ena ʻoku nau ʻi Hasasoni-tamali, ʻa ia ko ʻEni-keti+ ia.” 3 ʻI he meʻa ko iá naʻe hoko ai ʻa Sihosafate ʻo ilifia, pea naʻá ne fakapapauʻi* ke kumi kia Sihova.+ Ko ia naʻá ne fanongonongo ai ki Siuta kotoa ha ʻaukai. 4 Naʻe fakatahataha mai leva ʻa e kakai ʻo Siutá ke fai ha fehuʻi kia Sihova;+ naʻa nau haʻu mei he ngaahi kolo kotoa ʻo Siutá ke kumi faleʻi kia Sihova.
5 Pea naʻe tuʻu hake ʻa Sihosafate ʻi he fakatahaʻanga ʻo Siuta mo Selusalemá ʻi he fale ʻo Sihová ʻi muʻa ʻi he lotoʻā foʻoú, 6 pea naʻá ne pehē:
“ʻE Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻemau fanga kuí, ʻikai ko e ʻOtua koe ʻi he langí;+ ʻikai ʻokú ke pule ki he puleʻanga kotoa pē ʻo e ngaahi kakaí?+ ʻOku ʻi ho nimá ʻa e ivi mo e mālohi, pea ʻe ʻikai lava ke tuʻu ha taha kiate koe.+ 7 ʻE homau ʻOtua, ʻikai naʻá ke kapusi ʻa e ngaahi kakai ʻo e fonuá ni mei he ʻao ʻo ho kakai ko ʻIsilelí pea foaki leva ia ko ha tofiʻa taʻengata ki he hako ʻo ho kaumeʻa ko ʻĒpalahamé?+ 8 Pea naʻa nau nofo ai, pea naʻa nau langa ʻi ai maʻau ha feituʻu toputapu ki ho huafá,+ ʻo nau pehē, 9 ‘Kapau ʻe hoko mai kiate kimautolu ha fakatamaki, ʻi ha heletā, fakamaau tamaki, mahaki fakaʻauha, pe ko ha honge, tuku ke mau tuʻu ʻi muʻa ʻi he falé ni pea ʻi ho ʻaó (he ko ho huafá ʻoku ʻi he falé ni)+ ʻo ui kiate koe ki ha tokoni ʻi heʻemau mamahí, pea ʻofa ke ke fanongo mai ʻo fakahaofi kimautolu.’+ 10 Ko eni ko e kau tangata eni ʻo ʻĀmoni, Mōape, mo e feituʻu moʻungaʻia ʻo Seiá,+ ʻa ia naʻe ʻikai te ke fakaʻatā ke fakatūʻuta ai ʻa ʻIsileli ʻi heʻenau haʻu mei he fonua ko ʻIsipité. Naʻa nau afe meiate kinautolu pea naʻe ʻikai ke nau fakaʻauha ʻosi kinautolu.+ 11 Ko eni ʻoku nau totongi fakafoki kiate kimautolu ʻaki ʻenau haʻu ke kapusi kimautolu mei ho tofiʻa ʻa ia naʻá ke foaki kiate kimautolu ke hoko ko homau tofiʻá.+ 12 ʻE homau ʻOtua, ʻe ʻikai koā te ke fakahoko ha fakamaau kiate kinautolu?+ He ʻoku ʻikai hamau mālohi ʻi he ʻao ʻo e fuʻu kakai ko eni ʻoku haʻu ke tauʻi kimautolú; pea ʻoku ʻikai te mau ʻiloʻi ʻa e meʻa ʻoku totonu ke mau faí,+ ka ʻoku hanga atu homau matá kiate koe.”+
13 Lolotonga ení, ko e faʻahinga kotoa ʻi Siutá naʻa nau tuʻu ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihová, fakataha mo ʻenau fānau īkí, ko honau ngaahi uaifí, pea mo ʻenau fānaú.*
14 Pea ʻi he lotolotonga ʻo e fakatahaʻangá, naʻe hoko mai ai ʻa e laumālie ʻo Sihová kia Sehesili ko e foha ʻo Sākalaia ko e foha ʻo Penaia ko e foha ʻo Sieli ko e foha ʻo Matanaia ko e Līvaí mei he ngaahi foha ʻo ʻĒsafé. 15 Naʻá ne pehē: “Mou tokanga, ʻa Siuta kotoa mo kimoutolu ʻa e kakai ʻo Selusalemá pea mo Tuʻi Sihosafate! Ko e folofola eni ʻa Sihova kiate kimoutolú, ‘ʻOua naʻa mou ilifia pe manavahē koeʻuhi ko e fuʻu kakaí ni, he ko e taú ʻoku ʻikai ʻamoutolu ia ka ʻoku ʻa e ʻOtuá.+ 16 Mou ʻalu hifo kiate kinautolu ʻapongipongi. Te nau ʻalu hake ʻi he tahake ʻo Sisí, pea te mou ʻilo kinautolu ʻi he ngataʻanga ʻo e teleʻá* ʻi muʻa ʻi he toafa Siluelí. 17 ʻE ʻikai fiemaʻu ia ke mou faitau ʻi he tau ko ení. Mou tuʻu ki homou tuʻuʻangá, ʻo tuʻu maʻu,+ pea sio ki he fakamoʻui ʻa Sihova ʻokú ne fai maʻamoutolú.*+ ʻE Siuta mo Selusalema, ʻoua naʻa mou ilifia pe manavahē.+ Mou ʻalu atu ʻapongipongi ʻo tauʻi kinautolu, pea ʻe kau ʻa Sihova mo kimoutolu.’”+
18 ʻI he taimi pē ko iá naʻe punou ʻa Sihosafate ʻo hanga ki he kelekelé, pea ko Siuta kotoa mo e kakai ʻo Selusalemá naʻa nau fakatōmapeʻe ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihová ke lotu kia Sihova. 19 Pea ko e kau Līvai ʻa ia ko e hako ʻo e haʻa Kōhaté+ pea mo e haʻa Kolá naʻa nau tuʻu hake ke fakahīkihikiʻi leʻo-lahi ʻaupito+ ʻa Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsilelí.
20 Naʻa nau tuʻu hengihengia hake ʻi he pongipongi hono hokó ʻo ʻalu atu ki he toafa ʻo Tēkoá.+ ʻI heʻenau ʻalu atú, naʻe tuʻu hake ʻa Sihosafate ʻo ne pehē: “Fanongo mai kiate au, ʻe Siuta mo kimoutolu ʻa e kakai ʻo Selusalemá! Mou tui kia Sihova ko homou ʻOtuá koeʻuhí ke mou malava ai ʻo tuʻu maʻu.* Tui ki heʻene kau palōfitá,+ pea te mou lavameʻa.”
21 ʻI he hili ʻa ʻene talatalanoa mo e kakaí, naʻá ne fakanofo ʻa e kau tangata ke nau hiva+ kia Sihova pea ke ʻohake ʻa e fakahīkihiki pea ʻoku nau tui ʻa e teunga toputapu ʻi heʻenau ʻalu muʻomuʻa ʻi he kau tangata taú, mo pehē: “Mou fakamālō kia Sihova, he ko ʻene ʻofa mateakí ʻoku tolonga ʻo taʻengata.”+
22 ʻI heʻenau kamata ke hiva fakahīkihiki fiefiá, naʻe fakatoka ʻe Sihova ha malumu ke ʻohofi ʻa e kau tangata ʻo ʻĀmoní, Mōapé, pea mo e feituʻu moʻungaʻia ʻo Seia ʻa ia naʻa nau fakatūʻuta ʻi Siutá, pea naʻa nau fetāʻaki pē ʻiate kinautolu.+ 23 Pea ko e kau ʻĀmoní mo e kau Mōapé naʻa nau tafoki hake ki he kakai ʻo e feituʻu moʻungaʻia ʻo Seiá+ ke fakaʻauha pea ke tafiʻi ʻosi atu kinautolu; pea ʻi he ʻosi ʻenau fakaʻauha ʻa e kakai ʻo Seiá, naʻa nau fefakaʻauhaʻaki.+
24 Ka ʻi he aʻu ʻa Siuta ki he taua leʻo ʻo e toafá+ pea hanga atu ki he fuʻu kakaí, naʻa nau sio atu ai ki honau ngaahi ʻangaʻangá kuo fola mai ʻi he kelekelé;+ naʻe ʻikai ha taha ʻe hao. 25 Ko ia naʻe haʻu ʻa Sihosafate mo hono kakaí ke fetuku ʻa e koloa vete meiate kinautolu, pea naʻa nau ʻilo ʻi honau lotolotongá ha koloa lahi ʻaupito, vala, mo e ngaahi meʻa fakaʻofoʻofa, ʻa ia naʻa nau vete maʻanautolu kae ʻoua kuo ʻikai ke nau kei lava ʻo fetuku.+ Naʻe feʻunga mo e ʻaho ʻe tolu ʻenau fetuku ʻa e koloa veté, he naʻe lahi ʻaupito. 26 ʻI he ʻaho hono faá naʻa nau fakatahataha ʻi he Teleʻa* Pelaká, he naʻa nau fakahīkihikiʻi* ai ʻa Sihova. Ko e ʻuhinga ia naʻa nau ui ai ʻa e feituʻu ko iá ko e Teleʻa Pelaká*+—ʻo aʻu mai ki he ʻahó ni.
27 Ko e kau tangata kotoa leva ʻo Siuta mo Selusalemá, fakataha mo Sihosafate ʻa ia naʻá ne taki kinautolú, naʻa nau foki ki Selusalema mo e fiefia, he naʻe ʻai ʻe Sihova ke nau fiefia ʻi honau ngaahi filí.+ 28 Ko ia naʻa nau hū ki Selusalema mo e ngaahi meʻalea filo, ngaahi haʻape,+ mo e ngaahi talupite+ pea naʻa nau ʻalu ki he fale ʻo Sihová.+ 29 Pea naʻe tofuhia ʻa e ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa ʻo e ngaahi fonuá ʻi he manavahē ki he ʻOtuá ʻi heʻenau fanongo kuo tauʻi ʻe Sihova ʻa e ngaahi fili ʻo ʻIsilelí.+ 30 Ko ia naʻe ʻikai ke fakahohaʻasi ʻa e puleʻanga ʻo Sihosafaté, pea naʻe hokohoko atu hono ʻoange kiate ia ʻe hono ʻOtuá ʻa e mālōlō ʻi he feituʻu kotoa pē.+
31 Pea naʻe hokohoko atu ʻa e pule ʻa Sihosafate ki Siutá. Naʻá ne taʻu 35 ʻi heʻene hoko ko e tuʻí, pea naʻá ne pule ʻi he taʻu ʻe 25 ʻi Selusalema. Ko e hingoa ʻo ʻene faʻeé ko ʻĀsupa ko e ʻofefine ʻo Silihi.+ 32 Naʻá ne hanganaki ʻaʻeva ʻi he ʻalunga ʻo ʻene tamai ko ʻAsá.+ Naʻe ʻikai te ne afe mei ai, pea naʻá ne fai ʻa e meʻa naʻe totonu ʻi he vakai mai ʻa Sihová.+ 33 Kae kehe, naʻe ʻikai ke toʻo ʻa e ngaahi potu māʻolungá,+ pea ko e kakaí naʻe teʻeki ai ke teuteu honau lotó ki he ʻOtua ʻo ʻenau fanga kuí.+
34 Ko e meʻa ki he toenga ʻo e hisitōlia ʻo Sihosafaté, mei he kamataʻangá ki he ngataʻangá, vakai kuo hiki ia ʻi he ngaahi lea ʻa Sehu+ ko e foha ʻo Hēnaní,+ ʻa ia naʻe kau ʻi he Tohi ʻo e Ngaahi Tuʻi ʻo ʻIsilelí. 35 ʻI he hili ení naʻe kau ʻa Tuʻi Sihosafate ʻo Siutá mo Tuʻi ʻAhasaia ʻo ʻIsilelí, ʻa ia naʻá ne fai ha tōʻonga fulikivanu.+ 36 Ko ia naʻá ne ʻai ia ke na hoa ngāue ʻi hono faʻu ʻo e ngaahi vaka ke folau ki Tāsisi,+ pea naʻá na faʻu ʻa e ngaahi vaká ʻi ʻEsioni-kepa.+ 37 Kae kehe, naʻe lea fakaekikite ʻa ʻEliese ko e foha ʻo Totavahu ʻo Malesá kia Sihosafate, ʻo pehē: “Koeʻuhí kuó ke kau mo ʻAhasaia, ʻe fakaʻauha ʻe Sihova ʻa hoʻo ngaahi ngāué.”+ Ko ia naʻe haveki ʻa e ngaahi vaká,+ pea naʻe ʻikai lava ke folau ia ki Tāsisi.
