Thutan Vaihom Ho 13

1 Avellin Israelten Pakai mitmun thilse jeng aboltauvin ahi. Hijeh chun Pakaiyin amaho chu Philistine te khut’ah apedoh tauvin ahileh amahon kum 40 sungin asungenthei lheh jengun ahi.

And the children of Israel yet again committed iniquity before the Lord; and the Lord delivered them into the hand of the Phylistines forty years.

2 Hiche nikholai hin Manoah kiti Daan phungmi khat Zorah khopi sungah anachengin ahi. Ama jinu hin nao avop theipon chanei louvin aum lhonin ahi.

And there was a man of Saraa, of the family of the kindred of Dan, and his name was Manoe, and his wife was barren, and bore not.

3 Pakai vantil khat Manoah jinu komah ahung kilah in hitin aseije, “Nangma chanei theilou hellin hitih chan’in ana umjong lechun tuahi gangtah a nao nahinvop ding chapa khat nahinding ahi.

And an angel of the Lord appeared to the woman, and said to her, Behold, you are barren and have not born; yet you shall conceive a son.

4 Hijeh chun chingtheijin, nangin ju hihenlang khamnathei dang ipi hijongleh don hihbeh in chuleh nehding kijahda thil ho chu nehih beh in.

And now be very cautious, and drink no wine nor strong drink, and eat no unclean thing;

5 Nangman nao hinvop in natin chapa khat nahin ding ahi, chuleh asam navopeh louhelding ahi. Ajeh chu amachu ahung penna patna athichan geija Nazir khat hina-a Pathenna kikatdoh ding ahi. Aman Philistine tea konna Israelte ahin huhdoh ding ahi,” ati.

for behold, you are with child, and shall bring forth a son; and there shall come no razor upon his head, for the child shall be a Nazarite to God from the womb; and he shall begin to save Israel from the hand of the Phylistines.

6 Hichun hiche numeinu chu alhai jellin ajipa aga hetsah tan ahi, “Pathen mikhat kakom’ah ahung kilah in, amachu Pathen vantil toh akilouvin, vetding tijat umtah ahi. Hoiya hungkon ham ti kana dongpon amanjong amin eiseipeh pon ahi.

And the woman went in, and spoke to her husband, saying, A man of God came to me, and his appearance [was as] of an angel of God, very dreadful; and I did not ask him whence he was, and he did not tell me his name.

7 Ahinlah aman nao nahinvop ding chapa khat nahinding ahi ati. Jujong nadon louding khamnathei adang, ipi hijongleh nadon louding nehjong nanehlou ding ahi ati. Ajeh chu nachapa chu ahung penna patna athi nichan geija Nazir khat iding Pathenna kikat dohding ahi,” ati.

And he said to me, Behold, you are with child, and shall bring forth a son; and now drink no wine nor strong drink, and eat no unclean thing; for the child shall be holy to God from the womb until the day of his death.

8 Hichun Manoah Pathen hengah atauvin aseitai, “Pakai, lungsettah in Pathen mipa chu avellin hungkit henlang ahung pengding chapang chungchang chu eiseipeh behen” ati.

And Manoe prayed to the Lord and said, I pray you, O Lord my lord, [concerning] the man of God whom you sent; let him now come to us once more, and teach us what we shall do to the child about to be born.

9 Pathen’in Manoah taona chu asangin avellin ajinu loulaija atoupetnin Pathen vantil chu ahung kilah kitnin ahi. Ahinla ajipa Manoah chu amanu komma ana umloupet ahi.

And the Lord heard the voice of Manoe, and the angel of God came yet again to the woman; and she sat in the field, and Manoe her husband was not with her.

10 Hijeh chun amanu chu gangtah in ajia koma alhai jallin agaseipeh in, “Nikhatna kakomma hungkilah a chu avellin ahung kitne” ati.

And the woman hasted, and ran, and brought word to her husband, and said to him, Behold the man who came in [the other] day to me has appeared to me.

11 Manoah chu ajinu chutoh alelhai lhonnin adongtan ahi, “Nangmahi nikhatna kajinu komma hung kilah chu nahim?” tin ana dongin ahi. Aman ahin donbut nin “kahi” ati.

And Manoe arose and followed his wife, and came to the man, and said to him, Are you the man that spoke to the woman? and the angel said, I [am].

12 Hijeh chun Manoah in hiti i nana dong tai, “Nathusei chu ahung guilhun teng hiche chapang chun ipi atoh dingham? chuleh itobanga hinkho amending ham?” tin ana dong tai.

And Manoe said, Now shall [your] word come to pass: what shall be the ordering of the child, and our dealings with him?

13 Pakai Vantil chun ahin donbutnin, “Najinun atohding kaseipeh hochu phatah a ajuiding ahi,

And the angel of the Lord said to Manoe, Of all things concerning which I spoke to the woman, she shall beware.

14 Amanun lengpithei tuija kon poupou chu anehlou ding chuleh ju hihenlang khamnathei adang itobang hijongleh adonlou ding chuleh athenglou poupou chu anehlou ding ahi” ati.

She shall eat of nothing that comes of the vine yielding wine, and let her not drink wine or strong liquor, and let her not eat anything unclean: all things that I have charged her she shall observe.

15 Hiche jouchun Manoah in Pakai Vantil komma chun aseije, “Lungsettah in keinin naneh ding kelnou khat kahin honlhon tokah in hiche ahin umtadin” ati.

And Manoe said to the angel of the Lord, Let us detain you here, and prepare before you a kid of the goats.

16 Pakai Vantil chun adonbutnin “anaum nange” ahilah ima kaneh louding ahi, hijeng jongleh Pakai komma kilhaina a pumgo thilto nabolthei lhon ding ahi” ati. (Manoah chun Pakai Vantil chu Pakai ahilam ahetlou ahi).

And the angel of the Lord said to Manoe, If you should detain me, I will not eat of your bread; and if you would offer a whole burnt offering, to the Lord you shall offer it: for Manoe knew not that he [was] an angel of the Lord.

17 Hichun Manoah in Pakai Vantil komma chun “Namin ipi ham?” tin anadongin ahi. Ajeh chu hicheho jousehi ahung guilhun tengleh keinin naming hi kajabol thei lhonna dingin” ati.

And Manoe said to the angel of the Lord, What [is] your name, that [when] your word shall come to pass, we may glorify you?

18 Pakai Vantil chun adonbutnin, “Ipi dinga kamin neidoh ham? Nangin nahet dinga kidang val ding ahi” ati.

And the angel of the Lord said to him, Why do you thus ask after my name; whereas it is wonderful?

19 Hichun Manoah in kelnou khat toh lousoh ga themkhat toh ahin choijin song chunga chun Pakai kommah pumgo thilto din atohdoh lhontan ahi. Chutia chu Manoah teni nupan avetpet lhonchun Pakai chun thil kidang tah aboldoh tan ahi.

And Manoe took a kid of the goats and its meat-offering, and offered it on the rock to the Lord; and [the angel] wrought a distinct work, and Manoe and his wife were looking on.

20 Hichea maichamma konna meikong chu vanlanga akontou phat chun Pakai Vantil jongchu meikong lah a chun akaltou tan ahi. Manoah leh ajinun hichu amu lhon phatnin abohkhup lhonnin jana apelhon tai.

And it came to pass when the flame went up above the altar towards heaven, that the angel of the Lord went up in the flame; and Manoe and his wife were looking, and they fell upon their face to the earth.

21 Vantil chu Manoah te nupa kommah avellin ahung kilah kittapon ahi. Hichun Manoah chun Pakai Vantil chu Pakai ahiti ahedoh tai.

And the angel appeared no more to Manoe and to his wife: then Manoe knew that this [was] an angel of the Lord.

22 Aman ajinu kommah hitin aseije, “Eini ithi teitei ding ahitai ajeh chu einin Pathen imulhon tan ahi” akiti lhon tan ahi.

And Manoe said to his wife, We shall surely die, because we have seen God.

23 Ahinlah ajinun, “Pakai chun eitha lhon ding ahilah kelnou leh lhosoh ga chu sangponte, aman eini komma jong hung kilah louding eini komma hitobang hojong abollou ding ahi” ati.

But his wife said to him, If the Lord were pleased to kill us, he would not have received of our hand a whole burnt offering and a meat-offering; and he would not have shown us all these things, neither would he have caused us to hear all these things

24 Achapa chu ahungso phatnin amanun jong amin Samson asahtai, chuleh amachu ahung khanlet to kilhonin Pakaiyin phatthei aboh in ahi.

And the woman brought forth a son, and she called his name Sampson; and the child grew, and the Lord blessed him.

25 Ama Zorah leh Eshtaol khopi teni kikah a Mahaneh-dan munna achen petnin Pathen lhagaovin amachu ahin hatdohsah tan ahi.

And the Spirit of the Lord began to go out with him in the camp of Dan, and between Saraa and Esthaol.
