< 1 Kings 21 >

1 Now Naboth the Jezreelite had a vine-garden in Jezreel, near the house of Ahab, king of Samaria.
Jezreel akonin Naboth kiti mikhat anaum in, ama hin Samaria lengpa Ahab leng inpi toh kinaicha in, Jezreel mun na chun lengpilei khat ana neijin ahi.
2 And Ahab said to Naboth, Give me your vine-garden so that I may have it for a garden of sweet plants, for it is near my house; and let me give you a better vine-garden in exchange, or, if it seems good to you, let me give you its value in money.
Nikhat hi Ahab min Naboth kom ah, “Na lengpilei hi ka leng inpi toh akinai jeh in, honna kanei dingin neiki chohsah tan, akhel in hiche sang’a lengpilei phajo nape ingting ahiloule na deijoh leh aman dingin sum joh peh lhon nang’e,” atipeh in ahi.
3 But Naboth said to Ahab, By the Lord, far be it from me to give you the heritage of my fathers.
Ahin Naboth in adonbut in, “Kapu kapa khang’a pat’a kagou chin khat chu nang ka pehdoh jeng ding vang chu Pakai jahnom lou himai hen,” atipeh in ahi.
4 So Ahab came into his house bitter and angry because Naboth the Jezreelite had said to him, I will not give you the heritage of my fathers. And stretching himself on the bed with his face turned away, he would take no food.
Hiche Naboth donbutna chun Ahab chu alunghansah lheh jengin, lungnom mo tah’in ainlang’a achetan ahi. Lengpa chun an jong ane nom tapon, bang lang angan alum tan ahi.
5 But Jezebel, his wife, came to him and said, Why is your spirit so bitter that you have no desire for food?
Ajinu Jezebel chun, “Ipi nati ham? Ipi dinga lungnom mo tah a anne louva na um jeng ham?” tin adong in ahi.
6 And he said to her, Because I was talking to Naboth the Jezreelite, and I said to him, Let me have your vine-garden for a price, or, if it is pleasing to you, I will give you another vine-garden for it: and he said, I will not give you my vine-garden.
Ahab in, “Naboth komah na lengpilei nei chohsah in ahi louleh akhel nape nang’e, kati leh anom pon ahi,” ati.
7 Then Jezebel, his wife, said, Are you now the ruler of Israel? Get up, take food, and let your heart be glad; I will give you the vine-garden of Naboth the Jezreelite.
Jezebel in, “Nangma hi Israelte lengp nahi hilou ham? Thoudoh inlang an nen, hiche chungthua chun lungkham tah hih’in, keiman Naboth lengpilei chu nape nang’e,” atin ahi.
8 So she sent a letter in Ahab's name, stamped with his stamp, to the responsible men and the chiefs who were in authority with Naboth.
Hichun Jezebel in Ahab khel in ama min in lekha ajih in mohor anam khum in hichun khopi sunga lamkai holeh upa ho koma chun lekha athot in hitin anajih e,
9 And in the letter she said, Let a time of public sorrow be fixed, and put Naboth at the head of the people;
“Mipiho chu an-ngol a tao dingin koukhom unlang, Naboth chu mun thupi’a tou sah un,
10 And get two good-for-nothing persons to come before him and give witness that he has been cursing God and the king. Then take him out and have him stoned to death.
Chuleh pannabei mi ni akoma tousah unlang, amani chun lengpa le Pathen atai tom’e tin themmo chan u-hen. Chujouteng kai doh’unlang song in seplih un,” ati.
11 So the responsible men and the chiefs who were in authority in his town, did as Jezebel had said in the letter she sent them.
Hiti chun khopi sunga upa ho leh lamkai ho chun Jezebel lekha a kijih thupeh dungjui chun abol tauvin ahi.
12 They gave orders for a day of public sorrow, and put Naboth at the head of the people.
Amahon an ngol ding asom’un, Nabath chu mipi masanga thupitah in atousah un ahi.
13 And the two good-for-nothing persons came in and took their seats before him and gave witness against Naboth, in front of the people, saying, Naboth has been cursing God and the king. Then they took him outside the town and had him stoned to death.
Hijouchun mi pannabei mini chu amasanga atousah un, Naboth chu mipi masanga themmo achan lhonin, “Ama hin Pathen leh lengpa asamsen ahi,” ati lhonin ahi. Hijeh chun ama chu khopi po langa akaidoh un song in aseplih tauvin ahi.
14 And they sent word to Jezebel, saying, Naboth has been stoned and is dead.
Khopi lamkai ho chun Jezebel komah thu athot un, “Nabath chu aki seplih tai,” atiuvin ahi.
15 Then Jezebel, hearing that Naboth had been stoned and was dead, said to Ahab, Get up and take as your heritage the vine-garden of Naboth the Jezreelite, which he would not give you for money, for Naboth is no longer living but is dead.
Chuin Jezebel in hiche thu chu ajah phat in, Ahab jah’ah, “Naboth lengpilei nang kom’a ana joh nomlou chu nahet em? Ven ama athi tai, alengpilei khu na kilah thei ahi tai,” ati.
16 So Ahab, hearing that Naboth was dead, went down to the vine-garden of Naboth the Jezreelite to take it as his heritage.
Hichun Ahab jong gangtah’in ache suh in Naboth lengpilei chu aga kichan tan ahi.
17 And the word of the Lord came to Elijah the Tishbite, saying,
Ahin Pakaiyin Elijah komah thu ahin seitan ahi.
18 Go down to Ahab, king of Israel, in Samaria; see, he is in the vine-garden of Naboth the Jezreelite, where he has gone to take it as his heritage.
“Samaria a vaihompa Israel lengpa Ahab khu ga kimupi dingin chesuh tan, amachu Jezreel munna Naboth lengpileiya ama a ding akichan pet tah nato ding ahi,” ati.
19 Say to him, The Lord says, Have you put a man to death and taken his heritage? Then say to him, The Lord says, In the place where dogs have been drinking the blood of Naboth, there will your blood become the drink of dogs.
Hiche thuhi ahengah seipeh in, “Pakaiyin hitin aseiye, Naboth na tha chu phakhopset lou ham? Hitiapihi anei agou nachom kit nalaiset ding ham? Hitia hi thil nabol jeh in, ui-chaten Naboth thisan ale na’u mun achun nang thisan jong ale di’u ahi,” agatisah tai.
20 And Ahab said to Elijah, Have you come face to face with me, O my hater? And he said, I have come to you because you have given yourself up to do evil in the eyes of the Lord.
Hichun Ahab chu Elijah komah apeng jah jengin, “Tuahi kamelma pan, neihung mudoh kit hi tam?” atileh, Elijah in adonbut in, “Henge, nangman Pakai mitmu a thilse jeng bolna a nakipeh jing jeh a ka hungkit ahi tai,” ati.
21 See, I will send evil on you and put an end to you completely, cutting off from Ahab every male child, him who is shut up and him who goes free in Israel;
Hijeh chun tun Pakaiyin hitin aseiye, “Nangma naval-lhum jing thei manthahna kahin lhun khum sah ding, nangma chilhah te pasal ho chuleh nasohho chujongleh soh hilou ho jong Israel gamsung hoilai mun hijong leh kasuhmang ding ahi.
22 And I will make your family like the family of Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, and like the family of Baasha, the son of Ahijah, because you have made me angry, and have made Israel do evil.
Keiman Ahijah chapa Baasha insung mite le Nebat chapa Jeroboam insung mite kasuh mang hel banga, nangma insung mite jong kasuhmang ding ahitai. Ajeh chu nangman keima nei sulunghang behseh jengin chuleh nangin Israel tehi nachonset sah tan ahi,” ati
23 And of Jezebel the Lord said, Jezebel will become food for dogs in the heritage of Jezreel.
“Chuleh Jezebel chungchang ahin, Pakaiyin hitin aseiye, ‘Jezreel mun’a gam behkhat chunga Jezebel tahsa chu uichan aneh ding ahi,” ati.
24 Any man of the family of Ahab who comes to his death in the town will become food for the dogs; and he who comes to his death in the open country will be food for the birds of the air.
“Ahab insung mite jouse hiche khopi sunga thiho jouse jong chu uicha hon aneh dingu chuleh gam lah’a thiho jouse chu muthong hon aneh diu ahi,” ati.
25 (There was no one like Ahab, who gave himself up to do evil in the eyes of the Lord, moved to it by Jezebel his wife.
Ajinu Jezebel in athu nun jeh'a Ahab min Pakai mitmua thilse bolna a aki pehlut banga kipehlut na koimacha dang aumpon ahi.
26 He did a very disgusting thing in going after false gods, doing all the things the Amorites did, whom the Lord sent out before the children of Israel.)
Athil bolset nasa pen chu, milim doi Amon mite ahou bang uva ahou chu ahipen’e. Amaho hi Israelte lhun masanga Pakaiyin ana deldoh masat nam mite chu ahiuve.
27 Hearing these words, Ahab, in great grief, put haircloth on his flesh and went without food, sleeping in haircloth, and going about quietly.
Hiche thupeh hi Ahab in ajah phat in, apon abottel in, khaodip pon akisel in, an angol in lunghem tah in khaodip pon chung ah alum in ahi.
28 Then the word of the Lord came to Elijah the Tishbite, saying,
Hichun Pakaija kon’a thupeh Elijah kom’a ahung lhung kit in,
29 Do you see how Ahab has made himself low before me? because he has made himself low before me, I will not send the evil in his life-time, but in his son's time I will send the evil on his family.
“Ahab khu keima masanga ichangeiya amale ama kisunem’a hitam ti namu em? Aman hichen geija aki suhnem tah jeh in, keiman ka bolgot chu ama damsung in bol taponge, achate cheng leh achilhah chunga bou ka bolding, alenggam kasuhmang ding ahi tai,” ati.
