1 Samuel 29

1 Now the Philistines got all their army together at Aphek: and the Israelites put their forces in position by the fountain in Jezreel.

Muntina Philistine sepaiho Aphek a akikhom khom’un, chule Israel te sepai chu Jezreel twinah phung mun’ah akikhom uve.

2 And the lords of the Philistines went on with their hundreds and their thousands, and David and his men came after with Achish.

Philistine lamkaihon, asepai teho loi jakhat loi, loi sangkhat khat in akhen un alamkaiyun, David chule a sepai teho Achish lengpa kom langa akijot un ahi.

3 Then the rulers of the Philistines said, What are these Hebrews doing here? And Achish said to the rulers of the Philistines, Is this not David, the servant of Saul the king of Israel, who has been with me for a year or two, and I have never seen any wrong in him from the time when he came to me till now?

Ahinlah Philistine gal lamkaihon, “Hebrew mite hohin hiche’a hi ipibolla hiuvem?” atiuve. Chuin Achish in, “Hichepa hi David, Israel mite lengpa Saul sohpa chu ahi. Amahi akum kum’a keitoh umkhom kahi lhonin, ahunglhun nia kipat, tuni chengeiyin athepmona imacha kamupoi,” ati.

4 But the rulers of the Philistines were angry with him, and said to him, Make the man go back to the place you have given him; do not let him go down with us to the fight, or he may be turned against us and be false to us: for how will this man make peace with his lord? will it not be with the heads of these men?

Ahinla Philistine lamkaiho chu alunghang un, “Nakhopi pehna a chun nungsol tan! Ama keihotoh galsat in konkhom thei pouvinte, ama galsatna mun’ah kilehei henlang Philistine mite eihin le sat kit u henlang, eiho luchang hijatpi hi kipoh henlang apupa toh kicham kit taleh, hiche tilouva aman thilpha abolthei ding adang ipi uma nangaitom?” atiuvin ahi.

5 Is this not David, who was named in their songs, when in the dance they said to one another, Saul has put to death thousands, and David tens of thousands?

“Hiche David kitipa hi hilou ham? Mihon la abol uva, ‘Saul in mi asang asang athat in, David in mi sangsom som in athat’e, tia kisei chu?

6 Then Achish sent for David and said to him, By the living Lord, you are upright, and everything you have done with me in the army has been pleasing to me: I have seen no evil in you from the day when you came to me till now: but still, the lords are not pleased with you.

Hichun Achish lengpan achaina in akouvin David jah’ah, “Pakai hingjing mina kasei ahi, nangma keidin nakitah lheh jengin ahi. Keima gellin nangtoh galla ikon khom dingham kanati ahin, ajeh chu nahunglhun tilla kipat in tuni chan geijin nasuhkhel na imacha kamupon ahi. Ahivanginla Philistine lamkai len dangho nangma toh gal isat khom diu hi, anom pouvin ahi.

7 So now go back, and go in peace, so that you do not make the lords of the Philistines angry.

Lungset tah in achunguva lungnom mo louvin, lungmong in inlama kile kit tan,” ati.

8 And David said to Achish, But what have I done? what have you seen in your servant while I have been with you till this day, that I may not go and take up arms against those who are now making war on my lord the king?

Hichun David in, “Ipi kanabol khella hitobang thil soh ham? Nasohpa keima chunga hi ipi lung lhai louna namu doh’a ka pakai le ka lengpa toh, galmi ho kasat khom thei lou hitam?” ati.

9 And Achish in answer said, It is true that in my eyes you are good, like an angel of God: but still, the rulers of the Philistines have said, He is not to go up with us to the fight.

Ahinlah Achish in, “Keima tah mudol in, nangma hi Pakai vantil bangin nadih lheh jenge, ahinlah Philistine gal lamkai hon gal nasat khompi ding akichauvin ahi.

10 So get up early in the morning, with the servants of your lord who are with you, and go to the place I have given you, and have no evil design in your heart, for you are good in my eyes; but when there is light enough in the morning, go away.

Hijeh chun, jingkah matah tengle kithou vinlang namiteho jouse toh neidalha tauvin,” ati.

11 So David and his men got up early in the morning to go back to the land of the Philistines. And the Philistines went up to Jezreel.

Hiti chun David le aloiteho akigong’un, Philistine gamsung adalha tauvin ahi. Hiche phat chun Philistine sepai hon Jezreel ajon tauvin ahi.
