< 1 Samuel 25 >

1 And Samuel died; and all Israel were gathered together, and lamented him; and they buried him in his house at Ramah. And David arose and went down to the wilderness of Paran.
Tun Samuel athitan ahile Israel mite jouse avui dingin ahung kikhom un, athilong chu a-op uvin, Ramah khoa a-inah avui tauvin ahi. Hichun David chu Maon gamthip ah akumsuh tan ahi.
2 And there was a man at Maon, whose business was at Carmel; and the man was very great, and he had three thousand sheep and a thousand goats; and he was shearing his sheep at Carmel.
Maon a kon neile gou tampi neiyah mihaothei tah khat Carmel khopia kiveina bol mi khat aum in ahi. Amachun kelngoi sang thum chule kelcha sangkhat aneiyin ahi chule hiche phatlai chu kelmulvo phatlai ahi.
3 And the name of the man was Nabal, and the name of his wife Abigail; and the woman was of good understanding, and of a beautiful countenance; but the man was churlish and evil in his doings; and he was a Calebite.
Hiche mipa min chu Nabal akitin, ajinu min chu Abigail akitin ahi, Ajinu chu numei chingtah ahin, thil umdan hekhen themtah jong ahin, amel jong melhoi tah ahi. Ajipa vang chu Caleb phungmi, umdan, chondan helou mi ahin, agiloutah a chon jeng ahi.
4 And David heard in the wilderness that Nabal was shearing his sheep.
Nabal kitipa hin kelngoi avah’e ti hi David in ahedoh tan ahi.
5 Then David sent out ten young men; and David said to the young men, Go up to Carmel, and go to Nabal, and greet him in my name.
Hijeh chun David in gollhang somkhat asolin Nabal henga thuthot le salam gabol din asol in ahi.
6 And thus shall ye say: Long life [to thee]! and peace be to thee, and peace be to thy house, and peace be to all that thou hast!
Hichun gollhangho chun, “Chamna le khantouna nangle na insunga chule naneile nanga chengse chunga umhen!” atiuvin ahi.
7 And now I have heard that thou hast shearers; now thy shepherds who were with us, we hurt them not, neither was there aught missed by them, all the while they were in Carmel.
“Nangman kelngoi mulvou ding miho chu keiho Carmel koma nakoiye ti kajan, keihon suh gentheina ima kanei pouve chule amahoa kon in jong ima guhle lah kanei pouve.
8 Ask thy young men, and they will tell thee. Therefore let the young men find favour in thine eyes; for we come in a good day: give, I pray thee, what thy hand may find to thy servants, and to thy son David.
Namiteho dong jong le chun adihtah chu naseipeh nauvinte. Golvah nikho khatle kahung diu ahin, kipah tah a neisan diu David in adeiye. Lungset tah in napeh thei thei neipeuvin, nalhacha keiho le nagol ngaitah keima David min in,” ati.
9 And David's young men came, and spoke to Nabal according to all those words in the name of David, and ceased.
David gollhangho chun David minin hicheng chu Nabal henga alhut uvin chule amahon Nabal donbutna angahuvin ahi.
10 And Nabal answered David's servants and said, Who is David? and who is the son of Jesse? there are many servants now-a-days that break away every man from his master.
Nabal in jong noise tah in, “David kitipa chu koi hija ham? Hiche Jesse chapa hin ama le ama ipia kigel ham? Tulaiya hi soh tamtah apakai teu henga konna jam mang atam e.
11 And shall I take my bread, and my water, and my flesh which I have killed for my shearers, and give [it] to men whom I know not whence they are?
Achutile, iti keiman kakelngoi mulvou’a pangho kathapeh kelngoi-sa, a twidon ding u chule aneh diu kachanglhah jouse hi kalah peh’a, kahetphah lou gam'a hungkon miho chu kapeh beh ding hija ham?” ati pen tai.
12 And David's young men turned their way, and went back, and came and reported to him according to all those words.
Hichun David gollhangho chu ahung kinunglen, Nabal in asei jouse chu David heng’ah alhut tauvin ahi.
13 And David said to his men, Gird ye on every man his sword. And they girded on every man his sword; and David also girded on his sword; and there went up after David about four hundred men; and two hundred abode by the baggage.
Chuin David in, “Nachemjam kigotun,” atin, hichun mi jali toh akilhon’un, chule mi jali anunglam uva thilkeo ngah din adalha uvin ahi.
14 And one of [Nabal's] young men told Abigail, Nabal's wife, saying, Behold, David sent messengers out of the wilderness to bless our master; and he has insulted them.
Hichun Nabal soh ho lah-a mi khat in Abigail aga hetsah in, “David in gamthip gam'a konin gollhangho kapu koma salam boldin asollin ahileh anaphoh sal in,
15 And the men were very good to us, and we were not hurt, neither missed we anything, as long as we companied with them, when we were in the fields.
Gollhang ho chu keiho dinga phattah ahiuve, keihon amahoa kon in hahsatna imacha katoh khapouve, kaum khom sung uvin jong keihoa konin imacha alahdoh-u jong aumpoi.
16 They were a wall to us both by night and day, all the while we were with them feeding the sheep.
Sunle jan in keihole kelngoiho ding in baang bang in eihong jing un, eingah tup jinguve.
17 And now know and consider what thou wilt do, for evil is determined against our master, and against all his household; and he is such a son of Belial, that one cannot speak to him.
Hiche thu hohi nangman nahet chet angaiye chule ipi bolding ham ti nagel angaiye, ajeh chu ka pakai pa le ainsung mite jousea ding’a thil hahsa hungsoh ding in akilome. Amala alungtong lheh inkoimacha to kihou tehi ahipoi,” ati.
18 And Abigail made haste, and took two hundred loaves, and two skin-bottles of wine, and five sheep ready dressed, and five measures of parched [corn], and a hundred raisin-cakes, and two hundred fig-cakes, and laid them on asses.
Hichun Abigail gangtah in changlhah lhon jani akigot in, lengpitwi savun peng ni dimset agongin, honminsa kelngoi nga akigot in, changpoh kana atena dim nga agon, lengpithei changlhah boh jakhat toh, theichang changlhah a kisem jani, hciheng hi, amanun sangan chungah asem in,
19 And she said to her young men, Go on before me; behold, I come after you. But she did not tell her husband Nabal.
Asohte jah ah, “Anache masauvin, keiman kahin juipai ding nahiuve,” ati.
20 And as she was riding on the ass, and coming down by the covert of the hill, behold, David and his men came down opposite to her; and she met them.
Abigail chu asangan chunga atouvin molchunga akaltouvin, aman David le amite ama langa-a ahung chu amun ahi.
21 Now David had said, Surely, in vain have I kept all that this [man] had in the wilderness, so that nothing was missed of all that was his; and he has requited me evil for good.
David in, “Hiche Nabal kitipa gancha jouse chu keiman khatcha beh jong manthah sah louva gammang noija kachinpeh chu pan nabeija kabol dan ahitai, tun Nabal in kathilpha bol jouse thilsen eihin lethoh pehtai.
22 So and more also do God to the enemies of David, if I leave of all that is his by the morning light any male.
Jingkah teng Nabal mi ahi kiti tapou pasal khatna khat jeng cha jong hinghoi louva katha gam louva ahile, Pakaiyin keima David hi eithat jeng hen,” tin aseitai.
23 And when Abigail saw David, she hasted and lighted off the ass, and fell before David on her face, and bowed herself to the ground,
Abigail in David amu phat’in, asangan chunga kon in akumlhan amasang ah akunin abohkhup’in jana apen ahi.
24 and fell at his feet, and said, Upon me, my lord, [upon] me let the iniquity be; but let thy handmaid, I pray thee, speak in thine ears, and hear the words of thy handmaid.
Akengphang bul’a abohkhup in ajah-a, “ka pakai thilsoh hicheng hohi keima themmo na ahijenge, chule nahenga kasei hi, neingaipeh-in.
25 Let not my lord, I pray thee, regard this man of Belial, Nabal; for as his name is, so is he: Nabal is his name, and folly is with him; and I thy handmaid did not see the young men of my lord, whom thou didst send.
Hiche Nabal hi milungtong le mipha ahipoi, thupitah in lahih-in, ajeh chu amahi mingol ahibouve amin tobang banga amajong hija ahi. Ahinla kapun nahinsol gollhangho chu nasoh nun kana mulou ahi,” ati.
26 And now, my lord, [as] Jehovah liveth, and [as] thy soul liveth, seeing Jehovah has restrained thee from coming with bloodshed, and from avenging thyself with thine own hand, now let thine enemies, and they that seek evil to my lord, be as Nabal.
“Tujeng injong Pakai hingjing mina kasei ahi, kapu jong nahin laihin Pakaiyin thisan so’a themmo sahna ding jousea nahoidoh sah ahitan, nakhut tah’a phu nalah ding jong aphal lousa ahitai, hijeh chun suhset ding thadinga nahola namelmate jouse chu Nabal tobang hisoh kei uhen.
27 And now this blessing which thy bondmaid has brought to my lord, let it be given to the young men that follow my lord.
Nasoh nu keiman hiche nangma le nagollhang ho neh le chah dia kahin poh hi kapu neisanpeh tei teiyin.
28 I pray thee, forgive the transgression of thy handmaid: for Jehovah will certainly make my lord a lasting house; because my lord fights the battles of Jehovah, and evil has not been found in thee all thy days.
Nasohnu hi ipi hile kathemmona aumleh abonchan nei ngaidam in. Pakai dia galsat nahijeh in Pakaiyin nang le nachilhahte lenga natun jing uhen chule nahinkho lhumkeiyin thilse bolda jeng in,” ati.
29 And if a man is risen up to pursue thee and to seek thy life, the soul of my lord shall be bound in the bundle of the living with Jehovah thy God; and the souls of thine enemies, them shall he sling out from the hollow of the sling.
“Midang hon thading in hung kipat u henlang, nahol hol jeng jong leu, kapu nahinkho hi Pakai na Pathen in nei le gou manlu tah bangin naven tup jing in ahi. Ahin namelma teho jouse gophel a songchang kikap mang bang’a akap mang ding ahi.
30 And it shall come to pass, when Jehovah shall do to my lord according to all the good that he has spoken concerning thee, and shall appoint thee ruler over Israel,
Chujong le nachung chang thudola Pakaiyin aseisa jouse chu kapu dinga nabolpeh soh keiya, Israel chunga lenga natun tengle,
31 that this shall be no stumbling-block to thee, nor offence of heart for my lord, either that thou hast shed blood without cause, or that my lord has avenged himself. And when Jehovah shall deal well with my lord, then remember thy handmaid.
Hitobang hohi hi nolna bei nahina chu kipuisetsah hihin. Chutile ajeh beiya mitha jeh ham ahiloule nangin naphu nakilah jeh ham a nalung gimpi lou ding ahi. Chuleh Pakaiyin kapu nang ma chung’a phatecha-a nainchen sah tengle, nasohnu keijong neihin geldoh tei teiyin,” ati.
32 And David said to Abigail, Blessed be Jehovah, the God of Israel, who sent thee this day to meet me.
David in Abgail adonbutin, “Tunia Israel Pathen in keito kimuto dinga nahinsol jeh in, Pakai chu thangvah in umhen!
33 And blessed be thy discernment, and blessed be thou, who hast kept me this day from coming with bloodshed, and from avenging myself with mine own hand.
Thil nahet them jeh in Pathen thangvah in umhen! Nangma jong phatthei chang in, ajeh chun nangman tuni hin kathemmona ding thisan kaso’a keile kei phulah na’a kakhut kalap nadinga konin nei huhdoh tai.
34 But indeed, as Jehovah the God of Israel liveth, who has restrained me from hurting thee, except thou hadst hasted and come to meet me, there had not been left to Nabal by the morning light any male.
Pakai Israel Pathen min a kasei ahi, Pakaiyin nangho eisuhsetda sah ahitai, neihung kimupi loi hih le chu, jingkhovah masang’a Nabal mite khat a khatcha kahinghoi loud ing kathagam heldiu ahitai,” ati.
35 So David received of her hand what she had brought him, and said to her, Go up in peace to thy house; see, I have hearkened to thy voice, and have accepted thy person.
Hichun David in jong athilpeh chengse akisan in, chule amanu jah-ah, “Lungmong tah-in na-inlama chetan, keiman nathusei kangai peh in, na inneipu jong katha lou ding ahitai,” ati.
36 And Abigail came to Nabal; and behold, he held a feast in his house, like the feast of a king; and Nabal's heart was merry within him, for he was drunken to excess; so she told him nothing, less or more, until the morning light.
Hitichun Abigail ahungkile kitna ain agalhun phat in, Nabal chun ainsungah lengpa golvah ni bangin kut anabollin ahi. Ama chu ju hakham in akhamin, hijeh chun amanun jong ajing jingkah changeiyin David toh akimuto thujong aseipeh tapoi.
37 And it came to pass in the morning, when the wine was gone out of Nabal, that his wife told him these things; and his heart died within him, and he became [as] a stone.
Jingkah khovah lhah’a Nabal jong ajukhamna akonna hung limdoh phat in, ajinun thilsoh umchan jouse chu abonchan aseipeh tan ahileh atija behseh jeng in, alung sunga alung achat tapon, songtum bangin akitung dentai.
38 And it came to pass in about ten days that Jehovah smote Nabal, and he died.
Nisom jouvin, Pakaiyin Nabal chu adeng in, athipai pai tai.
39 And when David heard that Nabal was dead, he said, Blessed be Jehovah, who has pleaded the cause of my reproach from the hand of Nabal, and has kept back his servant from evil; but Jehovah has returned Nabal's evil upon his own head. And David sent and communed with Abigail, to take her as his wife.
David in Nabal thi ajah phat in, “Pakai thangvah in umhen, Nabal khutna kona jumsona hiche Nabal chunga phu eilah peh chu nunnom hen. Nabal in achonset man akisan ahitai,” ati. Chuin David in Abigail henga aji hina dingin thuthot aneiyin, agadoh sah tan ahi.
40 And the servants of David came to Abigail to Carmel, and spoke to her, saying, David has sent us to thee, to take thee as his wife.
Chuin thupole ho chu Carmel alhun phat un, Abigail jah’a, “David in jia neidia, nang puiya eihinsol’u ahi,” agatiuve.
41 And she arose and bowed herself on her face to the earth, and said, Behold, let thy handmaid be a bondwoman to wash the feet of the servants of my lord.
Hichun Abigail chu tol’ah abohkhup’in hitin adonbut in, “Kei, nasohnu, David toh kakichen ding kakipah’e, alhacha hiya akeng soppeh dia gotsa kahi,” ati.
42 And Abigail hasted, and arose, and rode upon an ass, with five damsels of hers that followed her; and she went after the messengers of David, and became his wife.
Abigail jong lungkin tah-in akigongin, akipatdoh pai paiyin, sangan chung khat’a akaldoh in ama jenlea pangji asoh numei nga chu akipuiyin, David sohte nung ajuijin, David ji- dingin apangtai.
43 David had also taken Ahinoam of Jizreel; and they became, even both of them, his wives.
David chun Ahinoam Jezreel kho mi jong akichenpin, anigel lhon in, ajidin apang lhontai.
44 But Saul had given Michal his daughter, David's wife, to Phalti the son of Laish, who was of Gallim.
Hiche kahlah chun Saul chun achanu Michal kitinu, David jinu chu Gallim kho mi Palti chapa La’ish chu aji din ape tai.
