< 2 Samuel 13 >

1 Chuin David chapa Absalom chun sopi numei hoi tah khat aneiyin, amin chu Tamar akiti; hiti chun phat chomkhat jouvin David chapa Ammonin Tamar chu ahin deicha lheh tan ahi.
After this, Absalom the son of David had a beautiful sister, whose name was Tamar; and Amnon the son of David loved her.
2 Amnon chun Tamar chu adeicha lheh jeng tan ahileh hinkho man ding dan jong ahethei tapon, hichun achainan Tamar adeichat behset jeh in adam mo lotan ahi; Ijeh inem itileh Tamar chu nungah thengsel ahina laiyin, chule Amnon in amanu chu kachan joulou ding hitam tin alungin agel tan ahi.
Amnon was so troubled that he became sick because of his sister Tamar, for she was a virgin, and it seemed hard to Amnon to do anything to her.
3 Ahivangin Amnon hin kilopi loi lungthim suhto je themtah khat anei in, amin jong Jonadab akiti; amapa hi David loipa Shimea chapa ahi.
But Amnon had a friend whose name was Jonadab the son of Shimeah, David’s brother; and Jonadab was a very subtle man.
4 Nikhat Jonadab in Amnon koma aseiyin, “Ipi bola lengpa chapa jingkah seh le mi-ngol ho um banga umjing nahim? Ipi ham nabuina?” atileh; Amnon in jong asei peh tai, “Keiman kasopi pa Absalom naonu Tamar khu kadei chat jeh ahi,” tin aphong doh tan ahi.
He said to him, “Why, son of the king, are you so sad from day to day? Won’t you tell me?” Amnon said to him, “I love Tamar, my brother Absalom’s sister.”
5 Chuphat’in Jonadab chun aphai, “keiman epi nabol ding naseipih nange ati. Nungchin lang Nalupna a khun lumin lang kinat lhem sah in. Napa chu nangma ve dinga ahung tengleh napa koma hitin seiyin, Tamar chu ahunga nangma dia an neh themkhat nahung bolpih din thum'in. chule aman namitmu a akhut tah a nahung vah'a ahileh nangma naol chom din jong seipih tan ati.”
Jonadab said to him, “Lay down on your bed and pretend to be sick. When your father comes to see you, tell him, ‘Please let my sister Tamar come and give me bread to eat, and prepare the food in my sight, that I may see it and eat it from her hand.’”
6 Hichun Amnon in jong asei bang bang chun alup nah a alumin akinat lhem sah tai. chuin lengpa chu ave din ahungtan ahileh Amnon chun lengpa koma chun asei tai,” Lungset tah in kanaonu Tamar chu neihin solpeh inlang keima mitmun kadutah khat nehding eihung sempih hen, chutile ken ama khutsoh mong mong chu nenge,” ati tai.
So Amnon lay down and faked being sick. When the king came to see him, Amnon said to the king, “Please let my sister Tamar come and make me a couple of cakes in my sight, that I may eat from her hand.”
7 Hijeh chun David jong anom in Tamar chu Amnon’s in a agachi a anneh ding them khat agasem peh din asol tan ahi.
Then David sent home to Tamar, saying, “Go now to your brother Amnon’s house, and prepare food for him.”
8 Chuphat’in Tamar jong Amnon in'a achen alhun phat in, alupna lang a ache lut tai. Hichun changboi goina alan changbong agoiyin, Amnon mitmu tah in changlhah chu asem’in akan peh tai.
So Tamar went to her brother Amnon’s house; and he was lying down. She took dough, kneaded it, made cakes in his sight, and baked the cakes.
9 Ahin amanun akhangbel sunga a changlhah kansa chu Amnon ang sunga agathah lutpeh vang'in amapan ane deh tapon ahi. Hichun Amnon’in asohte kommah aseiyin, “Kakoma konin nabon un potdoh'un,” ati. Hijeh chun abonchao vin ama koma konin apotdoh soh kei tau’ve.
She took the pan and poured them out before him, but he refused to eat. Amnon said, “Have all men leave me.” Then every man went out from him.
10 Chutah chun Amnon in Tamar koma asei in, “Tun an neh ding chu kalupna langah hinchoilut inlang chule neinehsah tan ati. Hichun Tamar injong anehh ding chu achoilut pih tan ahi.
Amnon said to Tamar, “Bring the food into the room, that I may eat from your hand.” Tamar took the cakes which she had made, and brought them into the room to Amnon her brother.
11 Ahin amanun anehsah jing lai chun, amapan ahintuh chah kheh in chule athumtan ahi, “Hungin neihung luppin kalungset kanaonu,” tin.
When she had brought them near to him to eat, he took hold of her and said to her, “Come, lie with me, my sister!”
12 Chuin Tamar chu akap in “Ahipoi he-u, ngol hih in! hitabang pihi kema kom ah bolhih beh in! hitobang ngol hoitah thil hi Israel chate lah a kibol ngai lou ahi, ati.
She answered him, “No, my brother, do not force me! For no such thing ought to be done in Israel. Don’t you do this folly!
13 Chule keiman hoilam a jum kathoh ngam ding ham? chule nang jong Israel chate lah a michavai mi-ngol khat mong mong nahi ding hita chume. Hijeh a chu katao tho ahi, lengpa koma neiki thumle chun aman jong nang ding beh a chu ajah da louhel ding ahi nai,” ati.
As for me, where would I carry my shame? And as for you, you will be as one of the fools in Israel. Now therefore, please speak to the king; for he will not withhold me from you.”
14 Ahin Amnon chun amanu thusei chu a ngaipeh tapon, amanu sanga athahat joh jeh chun pum hat’in aluppi tai.
However, he would not listen to her voice; but being stronger than she, he forced her and lay with her.
15 Chuin hetman louvin Amnon’s lungset nachu muda najoh ahungsoh tan, chule amuda dan chu masanga adei chat na sang in akhoh jo tai ahi. Hijeh chun Amnon chun akoma hitin asei tai, “Kithou doh loiyin lang pot doh loiyin,” tin asol doh loitan ahi.
Then Amnon hated her with exceedingly great hatred; for the hatred with which he hated her was greater than the love with which he had loved her. Amnon said to her, “Arise, be gone!”
16 Chuin Tamar’in kap pummin aseiyin, “Ahipoi he-u, hitobang thildih louva neisol doh loi hi neibol masat na sanga khoh cheh jo ahi,” ativangin Amnonin angai peh deh tapon ahi.
She said to him, “Not so, because this great wrong in sending me away is worse than the other that you did to me!” But he would not listen to her.
17 Chujouvin Amnon in alhacha ho akouvin thu apetan ahi, “Hiche nu hi kamasang a konin sol doh loiyun lang anunga kotpichu kamloi un” ati.
Then he called his servant who ministered to him, and said, “Now put this woman out from me, and bolt the door after her.”
18 Hitichun Amnon lhachahon Tamar chu asoldoh loiyun anunga kotpi akamden tan ahi. Tamar chun sangkhol chol hoitah aki-ah ahi; ajeh chu chuchi laikhanga chon nadan dungjui a leng chanu nu-ngah theng hochu hitobanga chu ana kivonji mongu ahiye.
She had a garment of various colors on her, for the king’s daughters who were virgins dressed in such robes. Then his servant brought her out and bolted the door after her.
19 Ahinlah tun Tamar in asang khol chol chu abot tel’in chule alu jangah vutvam akiloi tan ahi. chuin akhut chu amai ah akoi in, o thong je jun akap’in achi mangtan ahi.
Tamar put ashes on her head, and tore her garment of various colors that was on her; and she laid her hand on her head and went her way, crying aloud as she went.
20 Hichun A-upa Absalom in ana dong in “Na sopipa Amnon chun naum khompi hiteiyin te ong? hijongle tun thipchat in umtan, ajeh chu ama jong na-upa ahi bouve. chule athilbol hi nalungthim a chinda tan,” ati. Hijeh chun Tamar jong a-upa Absalom in’a chun lung genthei tah in acheng den tan ahi.
Absalom her brother said to her, “Has Amnon your brother been with you? But now hold your peace, my sister. He is your brother. Don’t take this thing to heart.” So Tamar remained desolate in her brother Absalom’s house.
21 Chuin David lengpan hitobang thilsoh ho hi ajah doh phat’in alung hang lheh jeng tan ahi.
But when King David heard of all these things, he was very angry.
22 Chule Absalom in hitabong thilsoh hi Amnon koma aseidoh lou vang'in Amnon chu nasatah in avetda lheh jeng tan ahi ajeh chu anaonu chunga athilbol aumchan jeh chu ahi. Absalom’s in Amnon Chunga Phu Alah
Absalom spoke to Amnon neither good nor bad; for Absalom hated Amnon, because he had forced his sister Tamar.
23 Hitichun kumni jouvin Absalom chun Ephriam kom a Baal-hazor khoa kelngoi mul avou in, Chule Absalom chun leng chapate jouse chu abonchan golvah a chun akou soh kei in ahi.
After two full years, Absalom had sheep shearers in Baal Hazor, which is beside Ephraim; and Absalom invited all the king’s sons.
24 Hichun Absalom jong lengpa henga achin hitin agaseiye, “ka kelngomul vou hon tunna atong un, hijeh chun lengpa le asoh te jouse jong lungset tah a nahung uva hiche nikho hi keitoh neihung man khompi diu ham? tin agasei tai.
Absalom came to the king and said, “See now, your servant has sheep shearers. Please let the king and his servants go with your servant.”
25 Ahivang in lengpan Absalom adonbut’in, “Ahipoi kacha, kabon uva kahung uleh nang dinga khanlel kahi diu ahi ati. Ahinla Absalom in aha tem cheh jeng in ahi, hiche jong hin David chu ache deh poi, Absalom chu aphat thei na aboh jeng vang'in.
The king said to Absalom, “No, my son, let’s not all go, lest we be burdensome to you.” He pressed him; however he would not go, but blessed him.
26 Chuphat’in Absalomin aphai khutia nang nahung thei lou ding leh eti nagel em kanaopa Amnon hinsol ding chu? Chuin lengpan ahin donbut in, epi jeh a Amnon hungding? ati.
Then Absalom said, “If not, please let my brother Amnon go with us.” The king said to him, “Why should he go with you?”
27 Ahin Absalomin asei kit in Amnon le leng chapate aboncha solpeh ding lengpa anup masang in angeh ngeh jenge tan ahi. ajeh chu Absalom kigutnahi lengte jaona dia kilomtah a kingon abol ahi.
But Absalom pressed him, and he let Amnon and all the king’s sons go with him.
28 Chujou in Absalom chun asoh teho chu thu asei peh masat in, “Amnon chu lengpi twi ahung kham ve-lhi jing jenguvin lang, keiman najah-uva, ‘Amnon chu jep’uvin tia kahin sei tengle that jeng uvin, kicha hih hel’uvin. Ajeh chu keiman thu kapeh louva nabol u ham? Hangsan tah le thanei tah in pang uvin,” tin asei peh tai.
Absalom commanded his servants, saying, “Mark now, when Amnon’s heart is merry with wine; and when I tell you, ‘Strike Amnon,’ then kill him. Don’t be afraid. Haven’t I commanded you? Be courageous, and be valiant!”
29 Hijeh chun Absalom soh ten jong Absalom in athupeh bang bang uvin Amnon chu athat taovin ahi. Chuin lengpa chapate adangho se abonchan akipat’uvin asakol pol cheh chunga atou doh soh keiyuvin ajam gamtauve.
The servants of Absalom did to Amnon as Absalom had commanded. Then all the king’s sons arose, and every man got up on his mule and fled.
30 Hichun amaho lamkim lah Jerusalem ahung gei uvin David henga thu ahung kithang lut masan, “Absalomin lengpa chapate jouse athat game, khat’a khat cha jong ahing hoi ta poi,” tin ahung ki sei e.
While they were on the way, the news came to David, saying, “Absalom has slain all the king’s sons, and there is not one of them left!”
31 Chutah chun lengpa jong akipat doh paiyin aponsil jouse abottel’in tollhanga akijam tai; chuin akoma ding alhacha jousen jong tijat jeh le lungkham jeh in aponsil akibotel soh kei tao vin ahi.
Then the king arose, and tore his garments, and lay on the earth; and all his servants stood by with their clothes torn.
32 Chuin David golpa Shimea chapa Jonadab chu David kom ahung in hitin asei e, “Ahipoi tahsan hih beh in, lengpa chapate ho jouse aboncha atha ahi sam poi, Amnon chang seh kithat ahibouve; ijeh-inem itileh Absalomin hichebol ding hi masanga pet Amnonin anaonu Tamar pum hat san a abolset nikho’a pat a chu gonsa anakoi ahitai.
Jonadab the son of Shimeah, David’s brother, answered, “Don’t let my lord suppose that they have killed all the young men, the king’s sons, for Amnon only is dead; for by the appointment of Absalom this has been determined from the day that he forced his sister Tamar.
33 Ahipoi, kapu lengpa nachapate abonchauva thigam ahi poi! Amnon sehbou thi ahi,” ati.
Now therefore don’t let my lord the king take the thing to his heart, to think that all the king’s sons are dead; for only Amnon is dead.”
34 Hichephat tah chun Absalom chu ajam mang tai; chuin Jerusalem a mive lhia pangpa chun akho dah in agah vet’a ahileh, vetan, Horonaim molsang pang langa chun mihem tamtah ahung kijot’uvin ahi. tin lengpa seipih din alhai tan ahi.
But Absalom fled. The young man who kept the watch lifted up his eyes and looked, and behold, many people were coming by way of the hillside behind him.
35 Hichun Jonadab chun lengpa jaah ven! Tun leng chapate khu ahung tauve; nalhachapa keiman kasei peh bang in ahung taove,” ati peh e.
Jonadab said to the king, “Behold, the king’s sons are coming! It is as your servant said.”
36 Chule Jonadab chun thu asei jou jouvin, vetan, lengpa chapate chu ahung lhung pai tauvin, chuin apeng jah’uvin akap cheh tauvin ahileh, lengpa le alhacha ho jong abonchauvin lhase tah-in akap soh kei uve.
As soon as he had finished speaking, behold, the king’s sons came, and lifted up their voices and wept. The king also and all his servants wept bitterly.
37 Chuin David in nisotpi achapa Amnon pul adouvin ahi. Absalom vang chu apupa Geshur lengpa Ammihud chapa Talmai koma ajam tan ahi.
But Absalom fled and went to Talmai the son of Ammihur, king of Geshur. David mourned for his son every day.
38 Hitichun Absalom Geshur gamah kumthum sungin aga um tan ahi.
So Absalom fled and went to Geshur, and was there three years.
39 Chule tun leng David injong Amnon thi chung changa kicham na nei a, achapa Absalom toh kithah gopkhom kit ding chu angaicha lheh tan ahi.
King David longed to go out to Absalom, for he was comforted concerning Amnon, since he was dead.
