ʻUluaki Sāmiuela
15 Naʻe pehē ange leva ʻe Sāmiuela kia Saula: “Naʻe fekauʻi mai au ʻe Sihova ke pani koe ke ke hoko ko e tuʻi ki hono kakai ko ʻIsilelí;+ ko ia ke ke fanongo ki he folofola ʻa Sihová.+ 2 Ko e folofola eni ʻa Sihova ʻo e ngaahi kau tau: ‘Te u ʻeke ki he kau ʻAmalekí ʻa e meʻa naʻa nau fai ki ʻIsileli ʻi heʻenau fakafepakiʻi kinautolu ʻi heʻenau fononga mai mei ʻIsipité.+ 3 Ko ia ke ke ʻalu ʻo taaʻi ʻa e kau ʻAmalekí,+ pea tuku atu kinautolu ki he fakaʻauha+ fakataha mo e meʻa kotoa ʻoku nau maʻú. Kuo pau ke ʻoua naʻá ke fakahaofi* kinautolu; te ke tāmateʻi kinautolu,+ ʻa e tangata pea pehē ki he fefine, fānau pea pehē ki he valevale, ʻa e pulu pea pehē ki he sipi, ʻa e kāmeli pea pehē ki he ʻasi.’”+ 4 Naʻe ui ʻe Saula ʻa e kakaí peá ne lau kinautolu ʻi Telaimi: Naʻe toko 200,000 ʻa e kau sōtia ʻalu laló pea toko 10,000 ʻa e kau tangata Siutá.+
5 Naʻe ʻalu atu ʻa Saula ʻo aʻu ki he kolo ʻo ʻAmalekí peá ne fakatoka ha malumu ʻi he veʻe teleʻá.* 6 Naʻe pehē leva ʻe Saula ki he kau Kēnaí:+ “Mou ō, mavahe mei he lotolotonga ʻo e kau ʻAmalekí, ke ʻoua naʻá ku tafiʻi koe fakataha mo kinautolu.+ He naʻá ke fakahaaʻi ʻa e ʻofa mateaki ki he kakai ʻIsilelí+ kotoa ʻi he taimi naʻa nau omi ai mei ʻIsipité.” Ko ia naʻe mavahe ʻa e kau Kēnaí mei he lotolotonga ʻo ʻAmalekí. 7 ʻI he hili iá, naʻe taaʻi ʻe Saula ʻa e kau ʻAmalekí+ mei Havila+ ʻo aʻu ki Sula,+ ʻa ia ʻoku hoko atu ki ʻIsipité. 8 Naʻá ne puke moʻui ʻa ʻĒkaki+ ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻAmalekí, ka ko e kotoa ʻo e kakai kehé naʻá ne tuku atu ia ki he fakaʻauha ʻaki ʻa e heletaá.+ 9 Kae kehe, naʻe fakahaofi ʻe Saula mo e kakaí ʻa* ʻĒkaki pea mo e lelei taha ʻi he fanga sipí, ko e fanga pulú, ko e fanga manu sisinó, ko e fanga sipi tangatá, pea mo e meʻa kotoa pē naʻe leleí.+ Naʻe ʻikai te nau loto ke tuku atu ia ki he fakaʻauha. Ka ko e meʻa kotoa pē naʻe ʻikai ʻaonga mo ʻikai fiemaʻú, naʻa nau tuku atu ia ki he fakaʻauha.
10 Ko ia naʻe hoko mai ʻa e folofola ʻa Sihová kia Sāmiuela ʻo pehē: 11 “ʻOku ou fakaʻiseʻisa* ʻi heʻeku fakanofo ʻa Saula ke tuʻí, he kuó ne tafoki mei he muimui kiate aú pea kuo ʻikai te ne fakahoko ʻeku ngaahi leá.”+ Naʻe loto-mamahi ʻaupito ʻa Sāmiuela, pea naʻá ne hanganaki tangi kia Sihova ʻi he poó kotoa.+ 12 ʻI he tuʻu pongipongia hake ʻa Sāmiuela ke fakafetaulaki kia Saulá, naʻe fakahā ai kia Sāmiuela: “Naʻe ʻalu ʻa Saula ki Kāmeli,+ pea naʻá ne fokotuʻu ai moʻona hano fakamanatu.+ Hili iá, naʻá ne tafoki ʻo ne ʻalu hifo ki Kilikali.” 13 ʻI he faifai pea aʻu atu ʻa Sāmiuela kiate iá, naʻe pehē ange ʻe Saula kiate ia: “Fakatauange ke faitāpuekina koe ʻe Sihova. Kuó u fakahoko ʻa e folofola ʻa Sihová.” 14 Ka naʻe pehē ʻe Sāmiuela: “Ka ko e hā ʻa e tangi ia ko eni ʻa e fanga sipi ʻoku ou fanongo ki aí pea mo e tangi ʻa e fanga pulu ʻoku ou fanongo ki aí?”+ 15 ʻI he meʻá ni naʻe pehē ange ai ʻe Saula: “Naʻe ʻomi ia mei he kau ʻAmalekí, koeʻuhí naʻe fakahaofi ʻe he kakaí ʻa e* fanga sipi mo e fanga pulu lelei tahá ke fai ʻaki kinautolu ha feilaulau kia Sihova ko ho ʻOtuá; ka ko e toengá naʻa mau tuku atu ia ki he fakaʻauha.” 16 ʻI he meʻá ni naʻe pehē ʻe Sāmiuela kia Saula: “Taʻofi! Tuku ke u tala atu ʻa e meʻa naʻe folofola mai ʻaki ʻe Sihova kiate au ʻanepoó.”+ Ko ia naʻá ne pehē ange ai kiate ia: “Lea mai!”
17 Naʻe hoko atu ʻa Sāmiuela: “ʻIkai naʻá ke vakai kiate koe tonu ko ha tokotaha taʻeʻiloa+ ʻi he taimi naʻe ʻai ai koe ko e ʻulumotuʻa ʻo e ngaahi matakali ʻo ʻIsilelí pea ʻi he taimi naʻe pani ai koe ʻe Sihova ke ke hoko ko e tuʻi ki ʻIsilelí?+ 18 Ki mui ai, naʻe tuku atu koe ʻe Sihova ʻi ha fekau ʻo pehē, ‘ʻAlu atu pea tuku atu ʻa e kau ʻAmaleki angahalaʻiá ki he fakaʻauha.+ Tauʻi kinautolu kae ʻoua kuó ke fakaʻauha ʻosi kinautolu.’+ 19 Ko ia ko e hā naʻe ʻikai ai te ke talangofua ki he leʻo ʻo Sihová? ʻI hono kehé, kuó ke ʻoho mānumanu atu ki he koloa veté+ pea fai ʻa e meʻa naʻe kovi ʻi he vakai mai ʻa Sihová!”
20 Kae kehe, naʻe pehē ʻe Saula kia Sāmiuela: “Ka kuó u talangofua ki he leʻo ʻo Sihová! Naʻá ku ʻalu ʻi he fekau ko ia naʻe tuku atu ai au ʻe Sihová, pea naʻá ku ʻomai ʻa ʻĒkaki ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻAmalekí, pea naʻá ku tuku atu ʻa e kau ʻAmalekí ki he fakaʻauha.+ 21 Ka ko e kakaí naʻa nau toʻo ʻa e fanga sipi mo e fanga pulu mei he koloa veté, ʻa e lelei taha ʻo e meʻa naʻe tuku atu ki he fakaʻauhá, ke feilaulau ʻaki kia Sihova ko ho ʻOtuá ʻi Kilikali.”+
22 Naʻe pehē ange leva ʻe Sāmiuela: “Ko e hā ʻoku leleiʻia ange ai ʻa Sihová: Ko e feilaulau tutu monumanú+ pe ko e fanongo ki he leʻo ʻo Sihová? Ko e moʻoni: ʻOku lelei ange ʻa e talangofuá ʻi hono fai ha feilaulaú+ pea ʻoku lelei ange ʻa e fanongo tokangá ʻi he ngako+ ʻo e fanga sipí; 23 he ko e angatuʻú+ ʻoku tatau ia mo e angahala ko e vavaló,+ pea ko e tutui atu ʻi he ʻafungí ʻoku tatau ia mo hono ngāueʻaki ʻa e mālohi fakafaimaná mo e tauhi ʻaitolí.* Koeʻuhí ko hoʻo siʻaki ʻa e folofola Sihová,+ kuó ne siʻaki koe mei hoʻo hoko ko e tuʻí.”+
24 Naʻe pehē ange leva ʻe Saula kia Sāmiuela: “Kuó u faiangahala, he kuó u laka kehe mei he tuʻutuʻuni ʻa Sihová pea mei hoʻo leá, koeʻuhí he naʻá ku manavahē ki he kakaí peá u fanongo ki he meʻa naʻa nau leaʻakí. 25 Pea ko eni, kātaki muʻa ʻo fakamolemoleʻi ʻeku angahalá, peá ke foki mo au koeʻuhí ke u ʻalu ʻo punou kia Sihova.”+ 26 Ka naʻe pehē ʻe Sāmiuela kia Saula: “ʻE ʻikai te u foki mo koe, he kuó ke siʻaki ʻa e folofola ʻa Sihová, pea kuo siʻaki koe ʻe Sihova mei hoʻo hokohoko atu ko e tuʻi ki ʻIsilelí.”+ 27 ʻI he tafoki ʻa Sāmiuela ke ʻalú, naʻe puke ʻe Saula ʻa e kapa ʻo hono kofu taʻenimá, ka naʻe mahae ia. 28 ʻI he meʻá ni, naʻe pehē ʻe Sāmiuela kiate ia: “Kuo hae ʻe Sihova meiate koe ʻa e pule ko e tuʻi ki ʻIsilelí he ʻahó ni, pea te ne foaki ia ki ha taha ʻi hoʻo kau tangatá ʻa ia ʻoku lelei ange ʻiate koé.+ 29 ʻIkai ko ia pē, ko e ʻOtua Fungani ʻo ʻIsilelí+ ʻe ʻikai loi+ pe liliu ʻene fakakaukaú,* he ʻoku ʻikai ko ha tangata pē Ia ke liliu ʻene fakakaukaú.”*+
30 ʻI he meʻá ni naʻá ne pehē: “Kuó u faiangahala. Ka ke fakalāngilangiʻi muʻa au ʻi he ʻao ʻo e kau mātuʻa ʻo hoku kakaí pea ʻi he ʻao ʻo ʻIsilelí. Ke ke foki mo au, pea te u ʻalu ʻo punou kia Sihova ko ho ʻOtuá.”+ 31 Ko ia naʻe foki ʻa Sāmiuela ʻo ne muimui atu ʻia Saula, pea naʻe punou ʻa Saula kia Sihova. 32 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sāmiuela: “ʻOmi ʻa ʻĒkaki ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻAmalekí ke ofi mai kiate au.” Pea naʻe ʻalu fakatōtōʻohi* atu ʻa ʻĒkaki kiate ia, he naʻe pehē loto pē ʻe ʻĒkaki: ‘ʻOku pau pē kuo mahili atu ʻa e fakamanamana* ʻo e maté.’ 33 Kae kehe, naʻe pehē ʻe Sāmiuela: “Hangē pē ko hono fakamasivaʻi ʻe hoʻo heletaá mei he kakai fefiné ʻa ʻenau fānaú, ʻe pehē pē ʻa e hoko ʻa hoʻo faʻeé ko e fefine masiva fānau taha ʻi he kakai fefiné.” ʻI he meʻa ko iá naʻe tuʻutuʻu kongokonga ʻe Sāmiuela ʻa ʻĒkaki ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihová ʻi Kilikali.+
34 Naʻe ʻalu leva ʻa Sāmiuela ki Lama, pea naʻe ʻalu hake ʻa Saula ki hono fale ʻoʻoná ʻi Kīpea. 35 Naʻe ʻikai ke toe sio ʻa Sāmiuela kia Saula ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho naʻá ne mate aí, kae kehe naʻe tangi mamahi ʻa Sāmiuela ʻia Saula.+ Pea naʻe fakaʻiseʻisa ʻa Sihova ʻi heʻene fakanofo ʻa Saula ke tuʻi ki ʻIsilelí.+
