Kapau ʻe ʻikai, ke ke lea mai pe koe.” 7 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Husai kia ʻApisalomi, “Ko e fakakaukau kuo lea ʻaki ʻe ʻAhitofeli ʻoku ʻikai lelei ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ko eni.” 8 He naʻe pehē ʻe Husai, “ʻOku ke ʻilo ʻa hoʻo tamai pea mo ʻene kau tangata, ko e kau tangata toʻa ʻakinautolu, pea kuo nau mamahi ʻi honau loto, ʻo hangē ko ha pea kuo kaihaʻasi mei ai hono ʻuhiki ʻi he vao: pea ko hoʻo tamai ko e tangata maheni ai mo e tau, pea ʻe ʻikai te ne nofo fakataha mo e kakai. 9 Vakai, kuo fufū eni ia ʻi ha luo, pe ʻi ha potu kehe: pea ʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻoka tō hifo honau niʻihi ʻi he kamataʻanga, ʻe pehē ʻe ia kotoa pē ʻoku fanongo ki ai, Kuo fai ʻae teʻia ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe kakai ʻoku muimui kia ʻApisalomi. 10 Pea ko ia foki ʻoku toʻa pea tatau hono loto mo e loto ʻo ha laione, ʻe vaivai ʻaupito: he ʻoku ʻilo ʻe ʻIsileli kātoa ko hoʻo tamai ko e tangata toʻa ia, pea ʻoku lototoʻa ʻakinautolu ʻoku kau mo ia. 11 Ko ia ko ʻeku fakakaukau ʻaʻaku ke tānaki kotoa pē ʻa ʻIsileli kiate koe, mei Tani ʻo aʻu atu ki Peasipa, ke hangē ko e ʻoneʻone ʻoe matātahi ʻa honau tokolahi; pea ko koe, ke ʻalu koe ki he tau. 12 Pea pehē, te tau hoko atu kiate ia ʻi ha potu pe ʻe ʻilo ai ia, pea te tau tō hifo ki ai ʻo hangē ko e tō hifo ʻae hahau ki he funga kelekele: pea ʻiate ia pea mo e kau tangata kotoa pē ʻoku kau mo ia ʻe ʻikai ʻaupito tuku ke toe hanau tokotaha. 13 Pea kapau foki kuo ne hū atu ki ha kolo, ʻe toki ʻomi ai ʻe ʻIsileli kātoa ha ngaahi maea ki he kolo ko ia, pea te tau tohoaki ia ki he vaitafe, kaeʻoua ke taʻeʻiloʻi ʻi ai hano momoʻi foʻi maka siʻi ʻe taha.” 14 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ʻApisalomi pea mo e kau tangata kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli, “ʻOku lelei hake ʻae fakakaukau ʻa Husai ko e tangata ʻAliki ʻi he fakakaukau ʻa ʻAhitofeli. He naʻe tuʻutuʻuni ʻe Sihova ke veuveuki ʻae fakakaukau lelei ʻa ʻAhitofeli, koeʻuhi kae ʻomi ʻe Sihova ʻae kovi kia ʻApisalomi.”
15 ¶ Pea naʻe toki pehē ai ʻe Husai kia Satoki mo ʻApiata ko e ongo taulaʻeiki, naʻe pehē mo pehē ʻae fakakaukau naʻe fai ʻe ʻAhitofeli kia ʻApisalomi pea mo e kau mātuʻa ʻo ʻIsileli; pea kuo pehē mo pehē ʻa ʻeku fakakaukau ʻaʻaku. 16 Ko ia foki mo fekau fakatoʻotoʻo, pea tala kia Tevita, ʻo pehē, ʻoua naʻa ke nofo ʻi he poōni ʻi he potu ʻataʻatā ʻoe toafa, ka ke mole atu ke vave; telia naʻa fōngia hifo ʻae tuʻi pea mo e kakai kotoa pē ʻoku ʻiate ia. 17 Ka ko eni naʻe nofo ʻa Sonatane mo ʻAhimasi ʻo ofi ki Eni-Lokeli; he naʻe tapu ʻe na hū mai ki he kolo: ko ia naʻe ʻalu ai ha fefine ʻo ne tala ia kiate kinaua; pea naʻa na ʻalu ʻo fakahā ia ki he tuʻi ko Tevita. 18 Ka naʻe mamata kiate kinaua ha tamasiʻi, pea ne fakahā ia kia ʻApisalomi: ka naʻa na ʻalu fakatoʻotoʻo fakatouʻosi, ʻo na hoko ki he fale ʻo ha tangata ʻi Pahulimi, ʻaia naʻe maʻu ha luo vaikeli ʻi hono lotoʻā, pea naʻa na ʻalu hifo ki ai. 19 Pea naʻe ʻomi ʻe he fefine ha meʻa ʻufiʻufi ʻo ne ʻufiʻufi ʻaki ʻae ngutu ʻoe luo vai, pea naʻe folofolahi ki ai ʻae fuaʻi uite ʻaia naʻe momosi; pea naʻe ʻikai ʻiloʻi ʻae meʻa ko ia. 20 Pea ʻi he hoko mai ʻae kau tamaioʻeiki ʻa ʻApisalomi ki he fefine ʻi he fale, naʻa nau pehē, Ko fē ʻia ʻa ʻAhimasi pea mo Sonatane? Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he fefine kiate kinautolu, “Kuo na mole atu ki he kauvai ʻe taha.” Pea hili ʻenau kumi mo taʻeʻiloʻi ʻakinaua, naʻa nau toe ʻalu ki Selūsalema. 21 Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, hili ʻenau ʻalu, naʻa na ʻalu hake mei he luo vaikeli, ʻo na ō mo fakahā kia Tevita, ko e tuʻi, ʻo na pehē kia Tevita, “Tuʻu hake, pea ʻalu fakatoʻotoʻo atu ki he kauvai: he kuo pehē ni ʻae fakakaukau ʻa ʻAhitofeli kiate kimoutolu.” 22 Pea naʻe toki tuʻu hake ai ʻa Tevita, pea mo e kakai kotoa pē naʻe ʻiate ia, pea naʻa nau aʻa atu ki he kauvai ʻe taha ʻo Sioatani: ʻi heʻene maʻa hake ʻae ʻaho naʻe ʻikai toe ha tokotaha naʻe taʻeʻā atu ʻi Sioatani.
23 ¶ Pea ʻi heʻene mamata ʻe ʻAhitofeli kuo ʻikai fai ʻa ʻene fakakaukau ʻaʻana, naʻa ne ʻai ʻae hekaʻanga ki heʻene ʻasi, pea ne tuʻu hake, pea naʻe ʻalu ia ki hono ʻapi, pea ki hono kolo, pea naʻa ne tuku ʻae fekau ki hono fale, pea ne tautau ʻe ia ia, ʻo ne mate, pea naʻe tanu ia ʻi he faʻitoka ʻo ʻene tamai. 24 Pea hili ia naʻe haʻu ʻa Tevita ki Mehanemi. Pea naʻe aʻa atu ʻa ʻApisalomi ʻi Sioatani, ʻaia mo e kau tangata kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli naʻe ʻiate ia.
25 ¶ Pea naʻe fakanofo ʻe ʻApisalomi ʻa ʻAmasa ko e ʻeiki pule ʻoe tau ko e fetongi ʻo Soape: pea ko ʻAmasa ko e foha ia ʻoe tangata ʻaia naʻe hingoa ko Itila ko e tangata ʻIsileli, ʻaia naʻe ʻalu ʻo mohe mo ʻApikali ko e ʻofefine ʻo Naʻasi, pea ko e tokoua kia Seluia ko e faʻē ʻa Soape. 26 Ko ia naʻe nofo ai ʻa ʻIsileli mo ʻApisalomi ʻi he fonua ʻo Kiliati.
