< 2 Samuel 12 >

1 Hiti chun Nathan themgaopa chu Pakaiyin David komah asol tan ahi: Hichun Nathanin jong David koma hitin aga seiye, “Khopi sung khat’a hin pasal ni acheng lhonin, khatpa chu mihao ahin, khat jopa vang chu mivaicha ahi.
AND the Lord sent Nathan unto David. And he came unto him, and said unto him, There were two men in one city; the one rich, and the other poor.
2 Hichun mihaopa hin kelngoihon tamtah le bonghon tampi aneiyin ahi.
The rich man had exceeding many flocks and herds:
3 Ahin mivaichapa vang chun imacha aneipoi, ahin aman alel lel a akichoh kelngoipi khat seh seh bou aneiye. Hijongle aman akelngoipi chu akivah vah-in achate toh phatechan avah in ahi; kelngoipi hin ama changlhah aneh ding an jong anejin, adon ding twi jong ama khon sunga konin adon ji'e; chutengle a-angsunga alum jin, achanu tobang bangin aumtan ahi.
But the poor man had nothing, save one little ewe lamb, which he had bought and nourished up: and it grew up together with him, and with his children; it did eat of his own meat, and drank of his own cup, and lay in his bosom, and was unto him as a daughter.
4 Hichelai hin kholjin mikhat mihaopa koma chun ahung lhung in ahileh, hiche kholjinpa thapeh ding chun mihaopan jong ama kelngoi hon lah a khattou thapeh ding jong a-ittan, chule ama bonghon lah a kona khattou thapeh ding jong a-it tai; ahin mivaichapa kelngoipi khat sheh anei chu aman in akoma hung kholjin pa ding chun atha peh tan ahi,” ati.
And there came a traveller unto the rich man, and he spared to take of his own flock and of his own herd, to dress for the wayfaring man that was come unto him; but took the poor man’s lamb, and dressed it for the man that was come to him.
5 Chutah chun David jong alung hangjah jengin hiche mihaopa douna chun Nathan themgao koma chun hitin aseitai, “Pakai hing jing mina kasei ahi, hitobanga kisa chonvalpa chu thi dinga kilom mong ahibouve!
And David’s anger was greatly kindled against the man; and he said to Nathan, As the Lord liveth, the man that hath done this thing shall surely die:
6 Chujongle aman voujang natna beihela hitobang thilpi hi abol jeh hin aman kelngoipi chu ajat li’a asah kit ding ahi,’ atitai.
And he shall restore the lamb fourfold, because he did this thing, and because he had no pity.
7 Chuin Nathan themgaopan David koma aseipai jengin, “Hichea kisei mihaopa hi nangma nahi, Pakai Israel Pathenin hitin aseiye, ‘Nang hi keiman Israel chate chunga leng chang dinga thao kanusa nahin, chule Saul thaneina a kon kanahuhdoh nahiye.
And Nathan said to David, Thou art the man. Thus saith the Lord God of Israel, I anointed thee king over Israel, and I delivered thee out of the hand of Saul;
8 Chujongle napupa Saul’in, ajiteu jouse chule Israel insung pumpi le Judah insung pumpi jong kapeh nahi; hicheng jong hi alhom behseh na laiya ahileh tamtah kapehbe ding nahi nalaiye.
And I gave thee thy master’s house, and thy master’s wives into thy bosom, and gave thee the house of Israel and of Judah; and if that had been too little, I would moreover have given unto thee such and such things.
9 Chuti ahileh epi dinga nangman Pakai thusei nanot thap a hitabang tijat umtah thil hi nabol hitam? Nangman Hittite mipa Uriah chu nadengin Ammon mite chemjamin nathat nin, chule ajinu jong naji din nakipui jeng theiye.
Wherefore hast thou despised the commandment of the Lord, to do evil in his sight? thou hast killed Uriah the Hittite with the sword, and hast taken his wife to be thy wife, and hast slain him with the sword of the children of Ammon.
10 Hijeh a chu tua hi nangma insunga kona jong chemjam lang jing jeng ding ahi. ajeh chu nangin keima nahsah mon neibolin, Hittite mipa Uriah jinu chu naji din nakipuitai,’ tin aseiye.
Now therefore the sword shall never depart from thine house; because thou hast despised me, and hast taken the wife of Uriah the Hittite to be thy wife.
11 Chuin Pakaiyin hitin aseiye, ajeh chu nangman nathil bol banga, keiman nangma insunga kona nadou ding thilse kahin kondoh sah ding ahi. chule namitmu changtah a najite jeng jong kalah peh a naheng nakom mite kapeh doh ding, chule amahon japi mitmu lai jenga jong najite chu aluppi dingu ahi.
Thus saith the Lord, Behold, I will raise up evil against thee out of thine own house, and I will take thy wives before thine eyes, and give them unto thy neighbour, and he shall lie with thy wives in the sight of this sun.
12 Ijeh inem itileh nangman nathil bol chu guhthima nabol ahin, keiman vang Israel chate pumpi mitmu dinga kabol ding ahi,’ tin aseiye.”
For thou didst it secretly: but I will do this thing before all Israel, and before the sun.
13 Chutah chun David in jong Nathan koma hitin aseiye, “Keima Pakai dounan kachonsetai,” atin ahileh; Nathan jong chun David koma aseipaiyin, “Pakaiyin nachonset angaidam tai. hijeh a chu hiche chonset jeh in nangma thi tapon nate.
And David said unto Nathan, I have sinned against the Lord. And Nathan said unto David, The Lord also hath put away thy sin; thou shalt not die.
14 Hijongle nangin hiche thil hi nabol a Pakai chu nahsah mo tah a nabol a nataitom ahitan, hijeh a chu ahung peng ding nacha chu thitei tei ding ahi tai,” tin aseitai.
Howbeit, because by this deed thou hast given great occasion to the enemies of the Lord to blaspheme, the child also that is born unto thee shall surely die.
15 Hichun Nathan ainlama achijou chun. Pakaiyin Uriah jinu hin David chapa chu gotna apen ahileh naosen chu apet petin adammo pai tan ahi.
And Nathan departed unto his house. And the Lord struck the child that Uriah’s wife bare unto David, and it was very sick.
16 Hijeh chun David jong naosen adamna din Pakai henga atao tao tan ahi; David chun an angolin apotdoh in, jan khovah hel chun tollhanga alumin ahi.
David therefore besought God for the child; and David fasted, and went in, and lay all night upon the earth.
17 Chuphat’in ainsung mi upa chengsen ajol jol jenguvin chule tollhanga alupnaa kona tho doh sah tei din agouve; ahinla David chu akithou doh deh pon, chule an jong aneh pi deh pouve.
And the elders of his house arose, and went to him, to raise him up from the earth: but he would not, neither did he eat bread with them.
18 Ahivangin nisagi lhin nin naosen chu athi tan ahi. Hichun naosen chu athitai’ tia David koma sei peh ding asohte chu akicha tauve; ajeh chu amaho geldola, vetan, naosen ahinlaiya bon eiho thusei angai louva ahileh, tua naosen athitai, tia iti iseidoh ngam diu ham? Amale ama kithalo mai ding ahi,” tia angaitou ahiye.
And it came to pass on the seventh day, that the child died. And the servants of David feared to tell him that the child was dead: for they said, Behold, while the child was yet alive, we spake unto him, and he would not hearken unto our voice: how will he then vex himself, if we tell him that the child is dead?
19 Ahin David chun asohte chu akhoisa cheh tauve ti ahetdoh phat’in naosen chu athi ahitai tin David’in ahedoh pai paitan ahi; hijeh chun David chun asohte chu adong in, “Naosen chu athia hitam?” atileh amahon jong, “Athitai,’ atiuve.
But when David saw that his servants whispered, David perceived that the child was dead: therefore David said unto his servants, Is the child dead? And they said, He is dead.
20 Chuphat’in David jong tol'a alupna a konin ahung thou dohin akisil ngim in, thao akinun, aponsil akhel’in, Pakai houin sunga avah lut’in chibai agaboh-e; chujouvin David chu ama inlama ahung in an athum in amahon jong ankong aluipeh-uva ahileh, an anetan ahi.
Then David arose from the earth, and washed, and anointed himself, and changed his apparel, and came into the house of the Lord, and worshipped: then he came to his own house; and when he required, they set bread before him, and he did eat.
21 Hichun asohten ajah a aseiyuve, “Ipibola hitia hi naum ham? naosen ahai hai pet in an nangol in nakap kap jengin, naosen athi tah bah phat in nathou doh in an nane jenge,’ atiuve.
Then said his servants unto him, What thing is this that thou hast done? thou didst fast and weep for the child, while it was alive; but when the child was dead, thou didst rise and eat bread.
22 Hichun David in jong hitin adonbut’e, “Naosen ahinpet a chu an kangola kaka ka ahin, “Kon ija ahet thei ham, ajo le Pakaiyin eilungset a naosen hi ahin hin sah thei ahi?” tia keiman kagel jeh ahi.
And he said, While the child was yet alive, I fasted and wept: for I said, Who can tell whether God will be gracious to me, that the child may live?
23 Ahin tun vang ama athia ahitan ibola an kangol ngol nah lai ding ham? ken ama chu kahinsah theiya nabol’uham? keibou ama koma nikhat le kache ding ahin, ama chu kahenga hung kile kit louhel ding ahitai,” ati.
But now he is dead, wherefore should I fast? can I bring him back again? I shall go to him, but he shall not return to me.
24 Hichun David’in ajinu Bathsheba alhem lung mongin akoma aga lut kit’in aluppin ahileh amanun nao ahinvop in chapa khat ahing kit’e; Chule David in amin Solomon asah in ahi. Pakaiyin amahi angailui.
And David comforted Bath-sheba his wife, and went in unto her, and lay with her: and she bare a son, and he called his name Solomon: and the Lord loved him.
25 Hijeh chun Nathan themgaopa henga ahin hetsah in ahileh Nathanin Pakai thusei dungjuiyin ama chu amin Jedidiah tinjong aminvo kit’e, (hichu Pakaiyin angailut tina ahi).
And he sent by the hand of Nathan the prophet; and he called his name Jedidiah, because of the Lord.
26 Chuin Joab chun Ammon mite khopi lanlung Rabbah chu adel khumin gal’in akisat pin ahileh ajouvin leng khopi chu alatan ahi.
And Joab fought against Rabbah of the children of Ammon, and took the royal city.
27 Chuin Joab chun David koma sottolle miho asol’in agasei sah tai, “Keiman Rabbah kaga kisat pin, twiphai khopi chu kajoutai tin.
And Joab sent messengers to David, and said, I have fought against Rabbah, and have taken the city of waters.
28 Hijeh chun tun mipi amoh cheng khom tup’in lang khopi dounan ngahmun hung sem tan, chule akhopi jong hung toupha jengin, achuti louva ahileh keiman akhopi hi kalah a keima min kaputsah ding ahi tai,” ati.
Now therefore gather the rest of the people together, and encamp against the city, and take it: lest I take the city, and it be called after my name.
29 Hijeh chun David in mipi abonchan akhom soh keiyin Rabbah khopi lama achen, chule akhopi dou nan gal abol’in akisat pin ahileh ajouvin akhopi chu alatan ahi.
And David gathered all the people together, and went to Rabbah, and fought against it, and took it.
30 Chule alengpau lallukhuh chu David in aluchanga konin alahdoh peh in chule amalu changah akikoi tan ahi. alallukhuh chu sana le songman tam a kisem chule agih dan chu pound somsagi le nga ahi. chujongle asunga chun song mantam tah akikoiyin. Chujongleh David chun Rabbah khopia thil thang tamtah ahin chom doh in ahi.
And he took their king’s crown from off his head, the weight whereof was a talent of gold with the precious stones: and it was set on David’s head. And he brought forth the spoil of the city in great abundance.
31 Chujongle akhopi sunga cheng mipi jouse chu gal hing-in akaiyin, chule thing-at dingle tuphul kheng dingle, heicha kheng dingin agoiyin, chule cheh dengin apansah tai. Hitichun David chun hitobanga hi Ammon mite khopi jouse anabol ahi; chujouvin David le mipi chu abonchauvin Jerusalema ahung kile kit tauvin ahi.
And he brought forth the people that were therein, and put them under saws, and under harrows of iron, and under axes of iron, and made them pass through the brickkiln: and thus did he unto all the cities of the children of Ammon. So David and all the people returned unto Jerusalem.
