1 Samuel 27

1 Ahinlah David amale ama akingaiton, “Nikhat leh Saul in tha tei ding eigot ahitai. Kabol thei pentah chu ahile Philistine gam'a jamdoh ing ting, Chutileh, Saul in Israel gamsunga eidal le le hi bei tante chuteng hichu kahoidoh na achaina hitante,” ati.

And Dauid said in his heart, I shall now perish one day by the hand of Saul: is it not better for me that I saue my selfe in the lande of the Philistims, and that Saul may haue no hope of me to seeke me any more in all the coastes of Israel, and so escape out of his hand?

2 Hichun David in a sepai mi jagup akipuijin, Gath lengpa Moach chapa Achish ajoptai. David le a sepaite, chule ainsung mite, Gath muna Achish toh acheng khom tauve.

Dauid therefore arose, and he, and the sixe hundreth men that were with him, went vnto Achish the sonne of Maoch King of Gath.

3 David chu aji teni, Ahinoam Jezreel a kon, chule Abigail, Nabal inneipi meithai Carmel’a kon hotoh hungkhom ahiuve.

And Dauid dwelt with Achish at Gath, he, and his men, euery man with his housholde, Dauid with his two wiues, Ahinoam the Izreelite, and Abigail Nabals wife the Carmelite.

4 Saul in adel jamle le theilou nading in David Gath lengpa komah ajamlut tai tithu chu Saul in gangtah in ana jatan ahi.

And it was tolde Saul that Dauid was fled to Gath: so he sought no more for him.

5 Nikhat David in Achish komah, “Kachunga nalung alhaiya, nalungsetna kachanthei dinga ahile, hiche kholen ho lah’a hin kachenna thei ding mun khat neipen, ajeh chu ipi dinga nasohpa hi hiche lengpa khopi sunga nangtoh kachen khom khom thei ding ham?” ati.

And Dauid saide vnto Achish, If I haue nowe founde peace in thine eyes, let them giue me a place in some other citie of the countrey, that I may dwell there: for why should thy seruant dwel in ye head citie of the kingdome with thee?

6 Hijeh chun Achish in hiche nikho chun Ziklag khopi chu David anape tai, hijeh a chu tuni changeija Ziklag khopi hi Juda lengte chang den ahitai.

Then Achish gaue him Ziklag that same day: therefore Ziklag pertaineth vnto the kings of Iudah vnto this day.

7 Chule amaho Philistine mite lah’a kum khat le lha li ana chenguve.

And the time that Dauid dwelt in the countrey of the Philistims, was foure moneths and certaine dayes.

8 David le a sepai te ana kon touvun Geshur mite le Girzi mite chule Amalek mite aga chom uvin ahi. Hiche mite hohi Shur toh kinai, Egypt mite gamsunga ana chenglui ahitauve.

Then Dauid and his men went vp, and inuaded the Geshurites, and the Girzites, and the Amalekites: for they inhabited the lande from the beginning, from the way, as thou goest to Shur, euen vnto the lande of Egypt.

9 David in ana nokhum chun koimacha ana hinghoi pon ahi. Aman kelngoi, kelcha, bong, sangan, sa-ngong sao ana kikaiyin, chule ponho analan, Achish lengpa kom ana lhut in ahi.

And Dauid smote the lande, and left neither man nor woman aliue, and tooke sheepe, and oxen, and asses, and camels, and apparell, and returned and came to Achish.

10 Achish in, “Tuchung koipen naga chom hitam?” tin anadongin ahile David in, “Juda gam lhanglam sang, Jerahmeel gamsung, Ken mite chenna gamsung dung pou kaga chom ahi,” ati.

And Achish said, Where haue ye bene a rouing this day? And Dauid answered, Against the South of Iudah, and against the South of the Ierahmeelites, and against the South of ye Kenites.

11 David chun koimacha numei pasal khen beiyin ana thatgam jin, ama le amite natoh dol chu Gath khoa gaseidoh ding aumjipoi. Philistine miho lah’a aum sunga, avel vella hichehi abol jing kei ahi.

And Dauid saued neither man nor woman aliue, to bring them to Gath, saying, Lest they should tel on vs, and say, So did Dauid, and so will be his maner all the while that he dwelleth in the countrey of the Philistims.

12 Achish chun David chu atahsan jeh chun, “Tuvang hin Israel miten David hi hatah in doudal tauvin tin, kakoma uma aimatih chana kakin abol ding hita hi,” tin ana gel’e.

And Achish beleeued Dauid, saying, He hath made his people of Israel vtterly to abhorre him: therefore he shalbe my seruant for euer.
