And all the tribes of Israel come to David to Chebron, and they said to him, Behold, we [are] thy bone and thy flesh.

And heretofore Saul being king over us, thou was he that didst lead out and bring in Israel: and the Lord said to thee, Thou shalt feed my people Israel, and thou shalt be for a leader to my people Israel.

3 Hijeh chun Hebron munnah ahitin ahi, leng David in Pakai masang le Israel upa ho jouse masang ngah kitep nakhat asem tan ahi. chuin amahon Israel mite chunga leng din thao anu taovin ahi.

And all the elders of Israel come to the king to Chebron; and king David made a covenant with them in Chebron before the Lord; and they anoint David king over all Israel.

And David and his men, departed to Jerusalem, to the Jebusite that inhabited the land: and it was said to David, Thou shalt not come in hither: for the blind and the lame withstood him, saying, David shall not come in hither.

7 Ahilah David in khopi dettah Zion khopi chu alatan ahi, tunin hiche mun chu David khopi akiti tai.

And David took first the hold of Sion: this [is] the city of David.

8 Chuchi agabulu nikhou chun David in a sepai ho hengah hitin aseiye, “keiman Jebusite mi mitcho hole elbai ho chu kavet nompoi. Koi hileh agabulu ding hochu twilam apet khopi sung lut diu ahi.” hichu thu kisei abul ahi, “mitcho hole elbai ho chu insung lut man lou Meithei u ahi.” ati.

And David said on that day, Every one that smites the Jebusite, let him attack with the dagger both the lame and the blind, and those that hate the soul of David. Therefore they say, The lame and the blind shall not enter into the house of the Lord.

9 Hitichun David in akulpiu chu a inmun in asemin chule David khopi asah tan ahi. chule David in khopi sung chu achung langah ahinpan in aasung lang gei in akeh len ben ahi.

And David dwelt in the hold, and it was called the city of David, and he built the city itself round about from the citadel, and [he built] his own house.

10 Hitichun David jong ahung thahat cheh cheh jengin ahi, ajeh chu Pakai Van Pathen sepai ten ama aumpi jeh u ahi.

And David advanced and became great, and the Lord Almighty [was] with him.

And Chiram king of Tyre sent messengers to David, and cedar wood, and carpenters, and stone-masons: and they built a house for David.

12 Hichun David in Pakaiyin Israel mite jouse chunga leng dia atun nale ami Israel te khohsah najalla aleng gam phatthei aboh chu ahin geldoh tan ahi.

And David knew that the Lord had prepared him to be king over Israel, and that his kingdom was exalted for the sake of his people Israel.

And the Philistines heard that David was anointed king over Israel; and all the Philistines went up to seek David; and David heard of it, and went down to the strong hold.

18 Chuin Philistine tejong ahung lhung un chule Rephaim phaicham lam geiyin akithe thang taovin ahi.

And the Philistines came, and assembled in the valley of the giants.

And David enquired of the Lord, saying, Shall I go up against the Philistines? and wilt thou deliver them into my hands? and the Lord said to David, Go up, for I will surely deliver the Philistines into thine hands.

And David came from Upper Breaches, and smote the Philistines there: and David said, The Lord has destroyed the hostile Philistines before me, as water is dispersed; therefore the name of that place was called Over Breaches.

21 Philistines miten hiche mun ah chun amilimdoi houchu adalhao vin, chule David le asepai ten amaho chu ala taovin ahi.

And they leave there their gods, and David and his men with him took them.

22 Chuin phat chomkhat jouvin Philistines mite chu akile kit un, chule Rephaim phaicham geijin aga kithe thang kit un ahi.

And the Philistines came up yet again, and assembled in the valley of Giants.

And David enquired of the Lord: and the Lord said, Thou shalt not go up to meet them: turn from them, and thou shalt meet them near the place of weeping.

24 Chule nanghon poplar thing chung lamma mikijot kengto gin najah teng ule kiging sadem a naum diu ahi! hichu Philistine mite chunga galjona nanei thei nadiuva Pakaiyin nachungvum uva nalhonpi nao melchih na hiding ahi.

And it shall come to pass when thou hearest the sound of a clashing together from the grove of weeping, then thou shalt go down to them, for then the Lord shall go forth before thee to make havoc in the battle with the Philistines.

25 Hijeh chun David injong Pakaiyin athupeh bang chun abollin, Philistines mite jouse chu Gibeon apet Gezer changei in athat gam tan ahi.

And David did as the Lord commanded him, and smote the Philistines from Gabaon as far as the land of Gazera.
