8 ¶ Pea naʻe kouna ʻe ʻAmasia ʻae kau talafekau kia Soasa, ko e foha ʻo Sihoaasi ko e foha ʻo Sehu, ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻo pehē, “Haʻu, ke ta fesiofaki ʻakitaua ko e mata ki he mata.” 9 Pea naʻe fekau ʻe Soasa ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli kia ʻAmasia ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta, ʻo pehē, “Naʻe fekau atu ʻe he talatalaʻāmoa ʻaia naʻe ʻi Lepanoni ki he sita ʻaia naʻe ʻi Lepanoni, ʻo ne pehē, ‘Foaki mai ho ʻofefine ki hoku foha kena mali:’ pea naʻe ʻalu ange ha manu fekai naʻe nofo ʻi Lepanoni, ʻo ne malamalaki hifo ʻae talatalaʻāmoa.” 10 Ko e moʻoni kuo ke teʻia ʻa ʻItomi, pea kuo angahiki ai ho loto: ke ke monūʻia, pea ke nofo ai pe ʻi ho fale: he koeʻumaʻā ʻa hoʻo lavea ʻi he kaunoa pe, mo ke hinga ai, ʻio, ʻa koe, pea mo Siuta fakataha mo koe? 11 Ka naʻe ʻikai fie fakaongo ʻa ʻAmasia ki ai. Ko ia naʻe ʻalu hake ai ʻa Soasa ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli; pea naʻe fesiofaki ia mo ʻAmasia ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta, ko e mata ki he mata ʻi Pete-Semesi ʻaia ʻoku ʻi Siuta. 12 Pea naʻe teʻia ʻa Siuta ʻi he ʻao ʻo ʻIsileli; pea naʻe hola ʻae tangata taki taha ki hono fale fehikitaki. 13 Pea naʻe maʻu ʻa ʻAmasia ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta, ko e foha ʻo Soasa ko e foha ʻo ʻAhasia, ʻe Soasa ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻi Pete-Semesi, ʻo ne ʻomi ki Selūsalema, pea ne holoki hifo ʻae ʻa ʻo Selūsalema mei he matapā ʻo ʻIfalemi, ʻo aʻu ki he matapā ʻoe tuliki, ko e hanga ʻe valungeau. 14 Pea naʻa ne toʻo ʻae koula kotoa pē mo e siliva, pea mo e ngaahi nāunau naʻe ʻilo ʻi he fale ʻo Sihova, pea ʻi he tukunga koloa ʻoe fale ʻoe tuʻi, pea mo e kau pōpula, pea ne toe ʻalu ai ki Samēlia.
15 ¶ Pea ko eni ko hono toe ʻoe ngaahi ngāue ʻa Soasa, ʻaia naʻa ne fai, pea mo ʻene mālohi, pea mo ʻene tau mo ʻAmasia ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta, ʻikai kuo tohi ia ʻi he tohi fakamatala ki he ngaahi tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli? 16 Pea naʻe mohe ʻa Soasa mo ʻene ngaahi tamai, pea naʻe fai hono putu ki Samēlia fakataha mo e ngaahi tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli; pea naʻe fetongi ia ʻi he pule ʻe Selopoami ko hono foha.
17 ¶ Pea ko ʻAmasia ko e foha ʻo Soasi ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta naʻe moʻui ia hili ʻae pekia ʻa Soasa ko e foha ʻo Sihoaasi ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻi he taʻu ʻe hongofulu ma nima. 18 Pea ko hono toe ʻoe ngaahi ngāue ʻa ʻAmasia, ʻikai kuo tohi ia ʻi he tohi fakamatala ki he ngaahi tuʻi ʻo Siuta? 19 Ka ko eni, naʻa nau teuteu ke fai ʻae lapa kiate ia ʻi Selūsalema: pea naʻa ne hola ki Lakisi; ka naʻa nau fekau ke tuli ia ki Lakisi, pea naʻa nau tāmate ia ʻi ai. 20 Pea naʻa nau fakaheka ia mo ʻomi ia ʻi he fanga hoosi: pea naʻe tanu ia ʻi Selūsalema fakataha mo ʻene ngaahi tamai ʻi he Kolo ʻo Tevita.
21 ¶ Pea naʻe ʻave ʻa ʻAsalia ʻe he kakai kotoa pē ʻi hono hongofulu ma nima ʻo ʻene taʻu, mo nau fakanofo ia ke tuʻi ko e fetongi ʻo ʻene tamai ko ʻAmasia. 22 Naʻa ne langa ʻe ia ʻa ʻElati, mo ne toe ʻange ia ki Siuta, ʻi he ʻene hili ʻae mohe ʻae tuʻi ki heʻene ngaahi tamai.
23 ¶ ʻI hono hongofulu ma nima ʻoe taʻu ʻa ʻAmasia ko e foha ʻo Soasi ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta, naʻe kamata pule ʻi Samēlia ʻa Selopoami ko e foha ʻo Soasi ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli, pea naʻa ne pule ʻi he taʻu ʻe fāngofulu ma taha. 24 Pea naʻa ne fai ʻe ia ʻae kovi ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova: naʻe ʻikai mahuʻi ia mei he ngaahi angahala ʻa Selopoami ko e foha ʻo Nipati, ʻaia naʻe fakaangahalaʻi ʻa ʻIsileli. 25 Naʻa ne toe fokotuʻu ʻae ngataʻanga ʻo ʻIsileli mei he hūʻanga ʻo Hemati ʻo aʻu ki he tahi ʻoe potu tokalelei, ʻo hangē ko e folofola ʻa Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻaia naʻa ne folofolaʻaki ʻi heʻene tamaioʻeiki ko Siona, ko e foha ʻo ʻAmitai, ko e palōfita, ʻaia naʻe nofo ʻi Katihefeli. 26 He naʻe ʻafioʻi ʻe Sihova ʻae mamahi ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻa ʻene kovi lahi ʻaupito: he naʻe ʻikai kei ai ha niʻihi naʻe nofo ʻi lotoʻā pe ʻalu kituʻa, pe ha taha ke tokoni ʻa ʻIsileli. 27 Pea naʻe ʻikai pehē ʻe Sihova te ne tāmateʻi ʻae hingoa ʻo ʻIsileli mei he lalo langi: ka naʻa ne fakamoʻui ʻakinautolu ʻi he nima ʻo Selopoami ko e foha ʻo Soasi.
28 ¶ Pea ko eni, ko hono toe ʻoe ngaahi ngāue ʻa Selopoami, mo e meʻa kotoa pē naʻa ne fai, pea mo ʻene mālohi, ʻae anga ʻo ʻene faʻa tau, pea mo e meʻa naʻa ne toe maʻu ai ʻa Tamasikusi, mo Hemati, ʻaia naʻe kau ki Siuta, ke ʻia ʻIsileli ia, ʻikai kuo tohi ia ʻi he tohi fakamatala ki he ngaahi tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli? 29 Pea naʻe mohe ʻa Selopoami mo ʻene ngaahi tamai, ʻio, ʻae ngaahi tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli; pea naʻe fetongi ia ʻi he pule ʻe hono foha ko Sakalia.
