Jeremiah 38:4

Ko ia naʻe pehē ai ʻae houʻeiki ki he tuʻi, “ʻOku mau kole kiate koe, tuku ke tāmateʻi ʻae tangata ni: he ʻoku ne fakavaivaiʻi ʻae nima ʻoe kau tangata tau ʻoku kei toe ʻi he kolo ni, pea mo e nima ʻoe kakai kotoa pē, ʻi heʻene lea ʻaki ʻae ngaahi lea pehē kiate kinautolu: he ʻoku ʻikai kumi ʻe he tangata ni ʻae lelei ʻoe kakai ni, ka ko e kovi.”

KO E TOHI TAPU KĀTOA

In The King James Version

Therefore the princes said unto the king, We beseech thee, let this man be put to death: for thus he weakeneth the hands of the men of war that remain in this city, and the hands of all the people, in speaking such words unto them: for this man seeketh not the welfare of this people, but the hurt.
