1 Samuel 31
1 Philistine miten Israel mite chu anokhum tauvin ahile, Israel mite chu Philistinete masanga ajamcheh uvin, Gilboa molsanga ken laiyah chun Philistine ten athatgam tauve.
And the Philistines fought against Israel, and the men of Israel fled from before the Philistines, and fell down slain in mount Gelboe.
2 Philistine miten Saul le achapa teho jong adelphapa uvin, achapa thum Jonathan, Abinadab, chule Malkishua jong athat tauve.
And the Philistines fell upon Saul, and upon his sons, and they slew Jonathan, and Abinadab and Melchisua the sons of Saul.
3 Saul panmun kimvel’a jong gal akihasat lheh jengun, akhona in thalpi kapthem hon akap kha’un, melsetah in amavo uvin ahi.
And the whole weight of the battle was turned upon Saul: and the archers overtook him, and he was grievously wounded by the archers.
4 Chuin Saul in agalvon popa jah ah, “Nachemjam satdoh inlang neithat in hiche Philistine Pathen helou ho ahung uva eimoh sutlih sang un,” ati. Ahinla agalvonpopa akichan athat ngampon ahi. Chuin Saul in jong ama chemjam asatdoh in, achemjam chu abokhum in amale ama akithat tai.
Then Saul said to his armourbearer: Draw thy sword, and kill me: lest these uncircumcised come, and slay me, and mock at me. And his armourbearer would not: for he was struck with exceeding great fear. Then Saul took his sword, and fell upon it.
5 Chuin agalvon popan Saul athitai ti ahetdoh phat in achemjam asatdoh in alhuh khum in alengpa komah amajong athi tan ahi.
And when his armourbearer saw this, to wit, that Saul was dead, he also fell upon his sword and died with him.
6 Hitichun Saul, achapa thumho, chule agalvon popa, abonchauvin nikhat sung in athi soh hel tauvin ahi.
So Saul died, and his three sons, and his armourbearer, and all his men that same day together.
7 Jezreel phaicham agal langkhat, Jordan vadung niso lam’a Israelten, Israel sepaite ho galjam gam tauve tithu ajahdoh uva, Saul le achapa teho jong athat taove ti ajah phat un, akhopi hou adalhauvin ahile Philistine miten akhopi sung uva alut un khopi u chu alo tauvin ahi.
And the men of Israel, that were beyond the valley, and beyond the Jordan, seeing that the Israelites were fled, and that Saul was dead, and his sons, forsook their cities, and fled: and the Philistines came, and dwelt there.
8 Ajing nikho in Philistine miten mithilong ho hetup dinga ahung uleh Gilboa mol chunga Saul le achapate thumho le agalvon popa, alongu ahung mudoh un ahi.
And on the morrow the Philistines came to strip the slain, and they found Saul and his three sons lying in mount Gelboe.
9 Chuin Saul alu atan uvin agalvon chengtoh apotauve, Saul thi jeh in Philistine gamsung jouse le a pathen hounau houin’ah kipa thuphon aneiyun ahi.
And they cut off Saul’s head, and stripped him of his armour, and sent into the land of the Philistines round about, to publish it in the temples of their idols, and among their people.
10 Saul galvon chu amilim doi ahounao Ashteroth kiti houin sung ah akoijun chule atahsa chu Beth-shan kiti khopi sunga bang ah akhaiyun ahi.
And they put his armour in the temple of Astaroth, but his body they hung on the wall of Bethsan.
11 Ahinlah Jabesh-gilead miten jong, Philistine miten Saul abolnao ajah phat un,
Now when the inhabitants of Jabes Galaad had heard all that the Philistines had done to Saul,
12 Galhang pasal jouse akipat doh un, ahung kitol’un, jan khovah hellin Beth-shan a kon in Saul le achapa teho long chu banga kon in ala lhauvin, Jabesh khopi ah ahin pulut un hikoma chun ahalvam un ahi.
All the most valiant men arose, and walked all the night, and took the body of Saul, and the bodies of his sons, from the wall of Bethsan: and they came to Jabes Galaad, and burnt them there:
13 Chujouvin agu ho chu alauvin Jabesh khoa Tamarisk thingphung noiyah avui uivn, chule ni sagi jen apuldou nan an angol uvin ahi.
And they took their bones and buried them in the wood of Jabes: and fasted seven days.
