ʼE foaki e te kau Filisitini te kolo ko Tesikelake kia Tavite (1-12)
27 Kae neʼe ui e Tavite ʼi tona loto: “ ʼE ʼi ai pe anai he ʼaho ʼe matehi moʼoni ai au e Saulo. Koia, ʼe lelei age ke au hola+ ki te fenua ʼo te kau Filisitini. ʼE tuku anai leva e Saulo tana tuli au ʼi te fenua katoa ʼo Iselaele+ pea ʼe au hao anai mai ʼona nima.”
2 Neʼe tuʼu ake ai leva ia Tavite mo te ʼu tagata ʼe toko 600+ ʼae neʼe fakatahi mo ia, ʼo natou olo kia Akise,+ te foha ʼo Maoke, te hau ʼo Kiete.
3 Pea neʼe nofo ia Tavite mo Akise ʼi Kiete, ia ia mo tana kau tagata, mo ʼonatou loto fale takitahi. Neʼe nofo ia Tavite mo ʼona ʼohoana ʼe lua, ia Asinoame+ mai Siseleele, pea mo Apikaile,+ te fafine mai Kalemelo ʼae neʼe ʼohoana ʼi muʼa atu mo Napale.
4 ʼI te temi ʼae neʼe fakaha age kia Saulo kua hola ia Tavite ki Kiete, neʼe tuku ai leva tana kumi ia ia.+
5 Neʼe ui leva e Tavite kia Akise: “Kapau ʼe ke ʼofa ia au, foaki mai he koga meʼa ʼi te ʼu kolo liliki, ke au maʼuli ai. He koʼe ʼe maʼuli anai tau tagata faifekau ʼi te kolo hau?”
6 Koia, ʼi te ʼaho ʼaia, neʼe foaki age ai e Akise kia ia te kolo ko Tesikelake.+ Ko te tupuʼaga la ʼaia ʼo te maʼu e te ʼu hau ʼo Suta te kolo ko Tesikelake ʼo kaku mai ki te ʼaho nei.
7 Neʼe maʼuli ia Tavite ʼi te fenua ʼo te kau Filisitini lolotoga te taʼu katoa mo mahina ʼe fa.+
8 Neʼe tau alu ia Tavite mo tana kau tagata ʼo ʼohofi te kau Kesuli,+ mo te kau Kisili pea mo te kau Amaleke,+ he neʼe natou nonofo ʼi te fenua mai Telame ʼo kaku ki Sule+ pea mo te fenua ʼo Esipito.
9 ʼI te temi fuli pe ʼae neʼe ʼohofi ai e Tavite te fenua, neʼe mole ina tuku ke maʼuli he tagata peʼe ko he fafine,+ kae neʼe ina toʼo te faga ovi, mo te faga pipi, mo te ʼu asino, mo te ʼu kamelo, mo te ʼu mutuʼi meʼa, pea hili ʼaia neʼe toe liliu kia Akise.
10 Pea moka fehuʼi age e Akise: “Ko te potu fea ʼae neʼe kotou olo ʼo ʼohofi ʼi te ʼaho nei?” neʼe tali age e Tavite: “Ko te potu saute* ʼo Suta”+ peʼe “Ko te potu saute ʼo te kau Selasemeele,”+ peʼe “Ko te potu saute ʼo te kau Kenite.”+
11 Neʼe mole tuku e Tavite ke maʼuli he tagata peʼe ko he fafine ke ʼaumai ki Kiete, he neʼe ina ui: “Ke ʼaua naʼa natou fakamatala he meʼa ʼo ʼuhiga mo matou pea mo natou ui: ‘Ko te meʼa ʼaeni neʼe fai e Tavite.’ ” (Neʼe ko tana faʼahiga fai ʼaia ʼi te temi katoa ʼae neʼe maʼuli ai ʼi te fenua ʼo te kau Filisitini.)
12 Neʼe tui ia Akise kia Tavite, pea neʼe manatu: ‘ ʼE mahino ia kua fehiʼaʼinaʼi ʼosi ia ia e Iselaele, tana hahaʼi. Koia ʼe gaue tuʼumaʼu pe anai maʼaku.’
