1ʻI hono uofulu ma tolu ʻoe taʻu ʻo Soasi ko e foha ʻo ʻAhasia ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta, naʻe kamata pule ki ʻIsileli ʻi Samēlia ʻa Sihoaasi ko e foha ʻo Sehu, pea naʻa ne pule ʻi he taʻu ʻe hongofulu ma fitu.
2Pea naʻa ne fai ʻae meʻa naʻe kovi ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, pea naʻa ne muimui ki he ngaahi angahala ʻa Selopoami ko e foha ʻo Nipati, ʻaia naʻe fakaangahalaʻi ʻa ʻIsileli naʻe ʻikai te ne mahuʻi mei ai.
3Pea naʻe fakatupu ʻae houhau ʻo Sihova ki ʻIsileli, pea naʻa ne tukuange ʻakinautolu ki he nima ʻo Hasaeli ko e tuʻi ʻo Silia, pea ki he nima ʻo Peni-Hatati ko e foha ʻo Hasaeli, ʻi hona ngaahi ʻaho ʻonaua.
4Pea naʻe kole ʻe Sihoaasi kia Sihova, pea naʻe ongoʻi ia ʻe Sihova: he naʻa ne ʻafioʻi ʻae fakamālohiʻi ʻo ʻIsileli, he naʻe fakamālohiʻi ʻakinautolu ʻe he tuʻi ʻo Silia.
5(Pea naʻe foaki ʻe Sihova ʻae fakamoʻui kiate kinautolu, ko ia naʻa nau hao atu ai mei he nima ʻoe kakai Silia: pea naʻe toe nofo ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ki honau ngaahi fale fehikitaki ʻo hangē ko ia ʻi muʻa.
6Ka neongo ia naʻe ʻikai mahuʻi ʻakinautolu mei he ngaahi angahala ʻoe fale ʻo Selopoami, ʻaia naʻe fakaangahalaʻi ʻa ʻIsileli, ka naʻa nau ʻalu ai: pea naʻe kei tuʻu foki ʻae vaotapu ʻi Samēlia.)
7Pea naʻe ʻikai te ne tuku ha kakai kia Sihoaasi ka ko e kau heka hoosi ʻe toko nimangofulu pe, mo e saliote ʻe hongofulu, pea mo e kakai hāʻele ʻe tokotaha mano; he kuo fakaʻauha ʻakinautolu ʻe he tuʻi ʻo Silia, mo ne ngaohi ʻakinautolu ke tatau mo e efu ʻoe hahaʻanga.
8Pea ko eni, ko hono toe ʻoe ngaahi ngāue ʻa Sihoaasi, pea mo ia kotoa pē naʻa ne fai, pea mo ʻene mālohi, ʻikai kuo tohi ia ʻi he tohi fakamatala ki he ngaahi tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli?
9Pea naʻe mohe ʻa Sihoaasi mo ʻene ngaahi tamai; pea naʻa nau fai hono putu ʻi Samēlia; pea naʻe fetongi ia ʻi he pule ʻe Soasi ko hono foha.
10ʻI hono tolungofulu ma fitu ʻoe taʻu ʻo Soasi ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta naʻe kamata pule ki ʻIsileli ʻi Samēlia ʻa Soasa ko e foha ʻo Sihoaasi, pea naʻa ne pule ʻi he taʻu ʻe hongofulu ma ono.
11Pea naʻa ne fai ʻae meʻa naʻe kovi ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova; naʻe ʻikai mahuʻi ia mei he ngaahi angahala kotoa pē ʻa Selopoami ko e foha ʻo Nipati, ʻaia naʻe fakaangahalaʻi ʻa ʻIsileli: ka naʻa ne ʻalu ai pe.
12Pea ko hono toe ʻoe ngaahi ngāue ʻa Soasi, mo ia kotoa pē naʻa ne fai, pea mo ʻene mālohi ʻi heʻene tauʻi ʻa ʻAmasia ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta, ʻikai kuo tohi ia ʻi he tohi ʻoe ngaahi tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli?
13Pea naʻe mohe ʻa Soasi mo ʻene ngaahi tamai; pea naʻe nofo ʻa Selopoami ki hono nofoʻa fakatuʻi: pea naʻe tanu ʻa Soasi ʻi Samēlia fakataha mo e ngaahi tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli.
14Ka ko eni naʻe pukea ʻa ʻIlaisa ʻi he mahaki ʻaia naʻa ne toki fononga ai. Pea naʻe ʻalu hifo kiate ia ʻa Soasi ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli, pea naʻe tangi ia ki hono mata, mo ne pehē, “ʻOiauē, ʻa ʻeku tamai, ʻa ʻeku tamai! ko e saliote ʻo ʻIsileli mo e kau heka hoosi ʻo ia!”
15Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ʻIlaisa kiate ia, “Toʻo ʻae kaufana mo e ngaahi ngahau.” Pea naʻa ne toʻo mai kiate ia ʻae kaufana pea mo e ngaahi ngahau
16Pea naʻa ne pehē ki he tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli, “ʻAi ho nima ki he kaufana.” Pea naʻa ne ʻai hono nima ki ai: pea naʻe ʻai ʻe ʻIlaisa ʻa hono nima ʻoʻona ki he nima ʻoe tuʻi.
17Pea naʻa ne pehē, “Fakaava ʻae matapā sioʻata ki he potu hahake.” Pea naʻa ne fakaava ia. Pea naʻe toki pehē ʻe ʻIlaisa, “Fana.” Pea naʻa ne fana. Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “Ko e ngahau eni ʻoe fakamoʻui ʻa Sihova, pea mo e ngahau ʻoe fakamoʻui mei Silia: he te ke teʻia ʻae kakai Silia ʻi ʻAfeki, kaeʻoua ke nau ʻauha ʻiate koe.”
18Pea naʻa ne pehē, “Toʻo ʻae ngaahi ngahau.” Pea naʻa ne toʻo ia. Pea naʻa ne pehē ki he tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli, “Ke ke taaʻi ʻae kelekele.” Pea naʻa ne tā ia ʻo liunga tolu pea tuku.
19Pea naʻe mamahi kiate ia ʻae tangata ʻoe ʻOtua, ʻo ne pehē, “Naʻe totonu ʻa hoʻo tā ke liunga nima pe liunga ono; ka ne pehē, pehē kuo ke teʻia ʻae kakai Silia kaeʻoua ke nau ʻauha; ka ko eni ʻe tuʻo tolu pe ʻa hoʻo teʻia ʻa Silia.”
20Pea naʻe pekia ʻa ʻIlaisa, pea naʻa nau ʻai hono putu. Pea naʻe haʻu ʻae kautau ʻa Moape ki he fonua ʻi he kamataʻanga ʻoe taʻu.
21Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē lolotonga ʻenau tanu ha tangata, ʻiloange naʻa nau sio ki ha kautau; pea naʻa nau laku atu ʻae tangata ki he fonualoto ʻo ʻIlaisa: pea ʻi heʻene tō hifo ki ai ʻae tangata mo lave ki he ngaahi hui ʻo ʻIlaisa, naʻa ne toe moʻui hake mo ne tuʻu ki ʻolunga ki hono vaʻe.
22Ka naʻe fakamālohiʻi ʻa ʻIsileli ʻe Hasaeli ko e tuʻi ʻo Silia ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho kotoa pē ʻo Sihoaasi.
23Pea naʻe angaʻofa ʻa Sihova kiate kinautolu, pea naʻa ne manavaʻofa kiate kinautolu, pea naʻa ne tokanga kiate kinautolu, koeʻuhi ko ʻene fuakava mo ʻEpalahame, mo ʻAisake, pea mo Sēkope, pea naʻe ʻikai te ne fie fakaʻauha ʻakinautolu, pea naʻe ʻikai te ne lī atu leva ʻakinautolu mei hono ʻao.
24Ko ia naʻe pekia ʻa Hasaeli ko e tuʻi ʻo Silia; pea naʻe fetongi ia ʻi he pule ʻe Penihatati ko hono foha.
25Pea naʻe toe haʻu ʻo maʻu ʻe Soasa ko e foha ʻo Sihoaasi mei he nima ʻo Penihatati ko e foha ʻo Hasaeli, ʻae ngaahi kolo, ʻaia naʻa ne lavaʻi mei he nima ʻo Sihoaasi ko ʻene tamai ʻi he tau. Naʻe tuʻo tolu ʻae lava ia ʻe Soasi, mo ne toe maʻu ai ʻae ngaahi kolo ʻIsileli.
