1 Tuʻi 13
1And behold, a man of God came out of Judah by the word of the LORD to Bethel. Jeroboam was standing by the altar to make offerings.
1PEA vakai, naʻe haʻu ha tangata ʻoe ʻOtua mei Siuta ko e meʻa ʻi he folofola ʻa Sihova, ʻo ne hoko atu ki Peteli: pea naʻe tuʻu ʻa Selopoami ʻi he veʻe feilaulauʻanga ke ʻatu ʻae meʻa namu kakala.
2And the man cried against the altar by the word of the LORD and said, “O altar, altar, thus says the LORD: ‘Behold, a son shall be born to the house of David, Josiah by name, and he shall sacrifice on you the priests of the high places who make offerings on you, and human bones shall be burned on you.’”
2Pea naʻa ne ui ki he feilaulauʻanga ʻi he folofola ʻa Sihova, ʻo pehē, “ʻE feilaulauʻanga, ʻe feilaulauʻanga! ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova; Vakai ʻe fanauʻi ha tamasiʻi ki he fale ʻo Tevita, ko Sosaia ʻa hono hingoa; pea te ne ʻohake ʻiate koe ʻae kau taulaʻeiki ʻoe ngaahi potu māʻolunga ʻakinautolu ʻoku tutu meʻa namu kakala ʻiate koe, pea ʻe tutu ʻiate koe ʻae ngaahi hui ʻoe tangata.”
3And he gave a sign the same day, saying, “This is the sign that the LORD has spoken: ‘Behold, the altar shall be torn down, and the ashes that are on it shall be poured out.’”
3Pea naʻa ne tuku ʻae fakaʻilonga ʻi he ʻaho pe ko ia, ʻo ne pehē, “Ko hono fakaʻilonga eni kuo folofolaʻaki ʻe Sihova; Vakai, ʻe mahaehae ʻae feilaulauʻanga, pea ʻe lilingi atu ʻae efuefu ʻaia ʻoku ʻi ai.”
4And when the king heard the saying of the man of God, which he cried against the altar at Bethel, Jeroboam stretched out his hand from the altar, saying, “Seize him.” And his hand, which he stretched out against him, dried up, so that he could not draw it back to himself.
4Pea ʻi heʻene fanongo ʻae tuʻi ko Selo-Poami ki he lea ʻae tangata ʻoe ʻOtua, ʻaia naʻa ne kalanga ʻaki ki he feilaulauʻanga ʻi Peteli, naʻa ne mafao atu hono nima mei he feilaulauʻanga, ʻo ne pehē, “Puke ia.” Pea ko hono nima, ʻaia naʻa ne mafao atu kiate ia, naʻe mate ia, pea naʻe ʻikai ai te ne faʻa toʻo mai ia kiate ia.
5The altar also was torn down, and the ashes poured out from the altar, according to the sign that the man of God had given by the word of the LORD.
5Naʻe mahaehae foki ʻae feilaulauʻanga, pea naʻe lilingi ʻae efuefu mei he feilaulauʻanga, ʻo fakatatau mo e fakaʻilonga ʻaia naʻe tuku ʻe he tangata ʻoe ʻOtua ʻi he folofola ʻa Sihova.
6And the king said to the man of God, “Entreat now the favor of the LORD your God, and pray for me, that my hand may be restored to me.” And the man of God entreated the LORD, and the king’s hand was restored to him and became as it was before.
6Pea naʻe pehēange ʻe he tuʻi ki he tangata ʻoe ʻOtua, “Fakakolekole eni ki he fofonga ʻo Sihova ko ho ʻOtua, pea ke kole koeʻuhi ko au, ke toe fakamoʻui ʻa hoku nima.” Pea naʻe kole ʻe he tangata ʻoe ʻOtua ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, pea naʻe toe fakamoʻui ʻae nima ʻoe tuʻi kiate ia, ʻo hangē ko ʻene teʻeki liliu.
7And the king said to the man of God, “Come home with me, and refresh yourself, and I will give you a reward.”
7Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tuʻi ki he tangata ʻoe ʻOtua, “Ke ta ō mo au ki ʻapi, pea ke fakamālōlō ai, pea te u foaki ha totongi kiate koe.”
8And the man of God said to the king, “If you give me half your house, I will not go in with you. And I will not eat bread or drink water in this place,
8Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tangata ʻoe ʻOtua ki he tuʻi, “Kapau te ke ʻomi kiate au hono vaeua ʻo ho fale, ka ʻe ʻikai te u ʻalu mo koe, pea ʻe ʻikai te u kai ha mā pe inu ha vai ʻi he potu ni;
9for so was it commanded me by the word of the LORD, saying, ‘You shall neither eat bread nor drink water nor return by the way that you came.’”
9He naʻe fekauʻi au ʻe he folofola ʻa Sihova, ʻo pehē, ʻoua naʻa kai ha mā, pe inu ha vai, pe te ke toe liliu mai ʻi he hala naʻa ke ʻalu ai.”
10So he went another way and did not return by the way that he came to Bethel.
10Ko ia naʻa ne ʻalu ai ʻi he hala kehe, ʻo ʻikai te ne liliu atu ʻi he hala naʻa ne haʻu ai ki Peteli.
11Now an old prophet lived in Bethel. And his sons came and told him all that the man of God had done that day in Bethel. They also told to their father the words that he had spoken to the king.
11Ka ko eni, naʻe ai ha motuʻa palōfita naʻe nofo ʻi Peteli; pea naʻe ʻalu ange ʻa hono ngaahi foha ʻo tala kiate ia ʻae ngaahi ngāue naʻe fai ʻe he tangata ʻoe ʻOtua ʻi he ʻaho ko ia ʻi Peteli: ko e ngaahi lea naʻa ne lea ʻaki ki he tuʻi, naʻa nau fakahā ia foki ki heʻenau tamai.
12And their father said to them, “Which way did he go?” And his sons showed him the way that the man of God who came from Judah had gone.
12Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he ʻenau tamai kiate kinautolu, ‘Naʻa ne ʻalu ʻi he hala fē?” He kuo mamata ʻe hono ngaahi foha ki he hala naʻe ʻalu ai ʻae tangata ʻoe ʻOtua, ʻaia naʻe haʻu mei Siuta.
13And he said to his sons, “Saddle the donkey for me.” So they saddled the donkey for him and he mounted it.
13Pea naʻa ne pehē ki hono ngaahi foha, ʻAi ʻae hekaʻanga ki he ʻasi. Pea naʻa nau ʻai ʻae hekaʻanga ki he ʻasi, pea naʻa ne heka ki ai,
14And he went after the man of God and found him sitting under an oak. And he said to him, “Are you the man of God who came from Judah?” And he said, “I am.”
14Pea ne muimui ia ki he tangata ʻoe ʻOtua, pea naʻa ne maʻu atu ia lolotonga ʻene nofo ʻi he lolo ʻoke: pea naʻa ne pehē kiate ia, “Ko koe ia ʻae tangata ʻoe ʻOtua ʻaia naʻe haʻu mei Siuta?” Pea naʻa ne pehē mai, “Ko au.”
15Then he said to him, “Come home with me and eat bread.”
15Pea naʻa ne toki pehē kiate ia, “Ke ta ō mo au ki ʻapi, pea ke kai ha meʻakai.”
16And he said, “I may not return with you, or go in with you, neither will I eat bread nor drink water with you in this place,
16Pea naʻa ne pehē, “ʻE ʻikai te u faʻa foki atu mo koe, pe ʻalu mo koe: pea ʻe ʻikai te u kai ha meʻakai pe inu ha vai mo koe ʻi he potu ni:
17for it was said to me by the word of the LORD, ‘You shall neither eat bread nor drink water there, nor return by the way that you came.’”
17He naʻe tala mai ʻi he folofola ʻa Sihova, ʻE ʻikai te ke kai ha mā pe inu ha vai ʻi ai, pe te ke toe liliu atu ke ʻalu ʻi he hala naʻa ke omi ai.”
18And he said to him, “I also am a prophet as you are, and an angel spoke to me by the word of the LORD, saying, ‘Bring him back with you into your house that he may eat bread and drink water.’” But he lied to him.
18Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia kiate ia, “Ko e palōfita foki au ʻo hangē ko koe; pea naʻe lea mai ha ʻāngelo kiate au ʻi he fekau ʻa Sihova, ʻo pehē, ‘Toe ʻomi ia mo koe ki ho fale, koeʻuhi ke ne kai ha meʻakai mo inu ha vai.’|” Ka naʻa ne loi kiate ia.
19So he went back with him and ate bread in his house and drank water.
19Ko ia naʻa ne foki atu mo ia, mo ne kai ʻae meʻakai ʻi hono fale, mo ne inu vai.
20And as they sat at the table, the word of the LORD came to the prophet who had brought him back.
20Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, lolotonga ʻena nofo ʻi he keinangaʻanga, naʻe hoko mai ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova ki he palōfita naʻe fakafoki mai ia:
21And he cried to the man of God who came from Judah, “Thus says the LORD, ‘Because you have disobeyed the word of the LORD and have not kept the command that the LORD your God commanded you,
21Pea naʻa ne ui ki he tangata ʻoe ʻOtua ʻaia naʻe haʻu mei Siuta, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, Koeʻuhi kuo ke talangataʻa ki he folofola ʻa Sihova, pea kuo ʻikai te ke fai ʻae fekau ʻaia naʻe fekau kiate koe ʻe Sihova ko ho ʻOtua,
22but have come back and have eaten bread and drunk water in the place of which he said to you, “Eat no bread and drink no water,” your body shall not come to the tomb of your fathers.’”
22Ka kuo ke toe foki ki mui, pea kuo ke kai ʻae meʻakai mo inu ʻae vai ʻi he potu, ʻaia naʻe pehē ai kiate koe, ‘ʻOua naʻa ke kai ha meʻakai, pe inu ha vai;’ ʻe ʻikai hoko ho ʻangaʻanga ki he fonua loto ʻo hoʻo ngaahi tamai.”
23And after he had eaten bread and drunk, he saddled the donkey for the prophet whom he had brought back.
23Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, hili ʻa ʻene kai ʻae meʻakai pea hili mo ʻene inu, naʻa ne ʻai ʻae hekaʻanga ki he ʻasi, maʻae palōfita naʻa ne fakafoki mai.
24And as he went away a lion met him on the road and killed him. And his body was thrown in the road, and the donkey stood beside it; the lion also stood beside the body.
24Pea ʻi heʻene ʻalu, naʻe fetaulaki mai kiate ia ha laione ʻi he hala, ʻo ne tāmateʻi ia: pea naʻe tō hifo ʻa hono ʻangaʻanga ʻi he hala pea naʻe tuʻu ofi ki ai ʻae ʻasi, pea naʻe tuʻu foki ʻae laione ʻo ofi atu ki he ʻangaʻanga.
25And behold, men passed by and saw the body thrown in the road and the lion standing by the body. And they came and told it in the city where the old prophet lived.
25Pea vakai, naʻe ʻalu atu ai ha kau tangata, ʻonau mamata ki he ʻangaʻanga naʻe lī ʻi he hala, pea mo e laione naʻe tuʻu ofi atu ki he ʻangaʻanga: pea naʻa nau omi ʻo tala ia ʻi he kolo ʻaia naʻe nofo ai ʻae motuʻa palōfita.
26And when the prophet who had brought him back from the way heard of it, he said, “It is the man of God who disobeyed the word of the LORD; therefore the LORD has given him to the lion, which has torn him and killed him, according to the word that the LORD spoke to him.”
26Pea ʻi heʻene fanongo ki ai ʻae palōfita ʻaia naʻe fakafoki mai ia mei he hala, naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “Ko e tangata ʻoe ʻOtua ia, ʻaia naʻe talangataʻa ki he folofola ʻa Sihova: ko ia kuo tukuange ai ia ki he laione, ʻaia kuo maumauʻi ia, mo tāmateʻi ia, ʻo hangē ko e folofola ʻa Sihova, ʻaia naʻa ne folofolaʻaki kiate ia.”
27And he said to his sons, “Saddle the donkey for me.” And they saddled it.
27Pea naʻe lea ia ki hono ngaahi foha, ʻo pehē, “ʻAi ʻae hekaʻanga ki he ʻasi maʻaku.” Pea naʻa nau ʻai ʻae hekaʻanga.
28And he went and found his body thrown in the road, and the donkey and the lion standing beside the body. The lion had not eaten the body or torn the donkey.
28Pea naʻa ne ʻalu ʻo ʻilo ʻa hono ʻangaʻanga kuo lī ʻi he hala, pea tutuʻu ʻae ʻasi mo e laione ʻo vāofi mo e ʻangaʻanga: naʻe ʻikai keina ʻe he laione ʻae ʻangaʻanga, pe te ne haehae ʻae ʻasi.
29And the prophet took up the body of the man of God and laid it on the donkey and brought it back to the city to mourn and to bury him.
29Pea naʻe toʻo hake ʻe he palōfita ʻae ʻangaʻanga ʻoe tangata ʻoe ʻOtua, ʻo ne fakaheka ia ki he ʻasi, ʻo ne toe ʻomi ia: pea naʻe haʻu ʻae motuʻa palōfita ki he kolo, ke ne tēngihia ia pea ke fai hono putu.
30And he laid the body in his own grave. And they mourned over him, saying, “Alas, my brother!”
30Pea naʻa ne tuku hono sino ki hono faʻitoka ʻoʻona; pea naʻa nau tēngihia ia, ʻo pehē, “ʻOiauē! ʻA hoku kāinga!”
31And after he had buried him, he said to his sons, “When I die, bury me in the grave in which the man of God is buried; lay my bones beside his bones.
31Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, hili ʻa ʻene tanu ia, naʻa ne lea ki hono ngaahi foha, ʻo pehē, “ʻO kau ka mate au, te mou toki tanu au ʻi he fonua loto ʻaia kuo tanu ai ʻae tangata ʻoe ʻOtua; tuku fakataha ʻa hoku ngaahi hui mo hono ngaahi hui:”
32For the saying that he called out by the word of the LORD against the altar in Bethel and against all the houses of the high places that are in the cities of Samaria shall surely come to pass.”
32Koeʻuhi ko e lea naʻa ne kalanga ʻaki ʻi he folofola ʻa Sihova ki he feilaulauʻanga ʻi Peteli, pea ki he ngaahi fale kotoa pē ʻi he ngaahi potu māʻolunga, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he ngaahi kolo ʻo Samelia, ʻe hoko moʻoni ia ʻo fai.
33After this thing Jeroboam did not turn from his evil way, but made priests for the high places again from among all the people. Any who would, he ordained to be priests of the high places.
33Kae hili ʻae meʻa ni naʻe ʻikai tafoki ʻa Selopoami mei hono hala kovi, ka naʻa ne toe fakanofo ʻae kau taulaʻeiki mei he kau tuʻa ʻoe kakai, ki he ngaahi potu māʻolunga: ko ia fulipē naʻe loto ki ai, naʻa ne fakanofo ia ʻo ne hoko ki he faʻahinga taulaʻeiki ʻoe ngaahi potu māʻolunga.
34And this thing became sin to the house of Jeroboam, so as to cut it off and to destroy it from the face of the earth.
34Pea naʻe hoko ʻae meʻa ni ko e angahala ki he fale ʻo Selopoami, ke motuhi ai ia, pea ke fakaʻauha ia mei he funga ʻo māmani.
