2 Samuel 1
1 After the death of Saul, when Dauid was returned from the slaughter of the Amalekites and had beene two dayes in Ziklag,
Saul a dueknah hnukah David te Amalek a tloek lamkah ha mael. Te vaengah David te Ziklag ah hnin nit om.
2 Behold, a man came the third day out of the host from Saul with his clothes rent, and earth vpon his head: and when hee came to Dauid, he fell to the earth, and did obeisance.
Hnin thum a om phoeiah Saul taengkah hlang te caem lamkah tarha ha pawk. A himbai te a pawnsoem la a lu dongkah laipi neh David taengla ha pawk vaengah lai la yalh tih a bawk.
3 Then Dauid saide vnto him, Whence commest thou? And he said vnto him, Out of the host of Israel I am escaped.
Anih te David loh, “Me lamkah lae na pawk,” a ti nah. Te dongah amah te, “Israel caem lamloh ka yong,” a ti nah.
4 And Dauid saide vnto him, What is done? I pray thee, tell me. Then he said, that the people is fled from the battel, and many of the people are ouerthrowen, and dead, and also Saul and Ionathan his sonne are dead.
Te dongah anih te David loh, “Olka aka om te kai taengah thui laeh,” a ti nah hatah pilnam te caemtloek lamkah rhaelrham tih pilnam muep a duek te khaw, Saul a duek te khaw, a capa Jonathan a duek khaw a thui pah.
5 And Dauid saide vnto the yong man that tolde it him, Howe knowest thou that Saul and Ionathan his sonne be dead?
Te dongah amah taengla aka puen cadong te David loh, “Saul neh a capa Jonathan a duek te me tlam lae na ming?” a ti nah.
6 Then the yong man that tolde him, answered, As I came to mount Gilboa, behold, Saul leaned vpon his speare, and loe, the charets and horsemen followed hard after him.
Amah taengla aka puen cadong loh, “Gilboa tlang la ka thoeng rhoe ka thoeng. Te vaengah Saul te amah kah caai dongah hangdang tih leng neh marhang caem boei rhoek loh anih te tarha a cuuk thiluh.
7 And when he looked backe, he saw me, and called me. And I answered, Here am I.
Te vaengah a hnukla ha mael tih kai m'hmuh hatah ng'khue tih, 'Kai ni he ue,’ ka ti nah.
8 And he said vnto me, Who art thou? And I answered him, I am an Amalekite.
Te phoeiah kai te, “Nang ulae,” a ti. Te dongah anih te ka doo tih, “Kai Amalek ni,” ka ti nah.
9 Then saide hee vnto me, I pray thee come vpon mee, and slay me: for anguish is come vpon me, because my life is yet whole in me.
Te vaengah, “Kai taengah pai lamtah kai he n'duek sak laeh, duekrhui loh kai n'tuuk tih ka khuiah ka hinglu khaw khak om pueng he,” a ti.
10 So I came vpon him, and slewe him, and because I was sure that hee coulde not liue, after that hee had fallen, I tooke the crowne that was vpon his head, and the bracelet that was on his arme, and brought them hither vnto my lord.
Tedae a cungku coeng he tah hing mahpawh tila ka ming dongah anih te ka pai tih ka duek sak. Te phoeiah a lu dongkah rhuisam neh a ban dongkah cak te ka loh tih ka boei taengla pahoi kang khuen,” a ti nah.
11 Then Dauid tooke hold on his clothes, and rent them, and likewise al the men that were with him.
Te dongah David loh a himbai te a paco tih a phen hatah a taengkah hlang rhoek long khaw boeih a rhoiuh.
12 And they mourned and wept, and fasted vntil euen, for Saul and for Ionathan his sonne, and for the people of the Lord, and for the house of Israel, because they were slaine with the sword.
cunghang neh a cungku uh coeng dongah Israel imkhui ham khaw, BOEIPA kah pilnam ham khaw, Saul ham neh a capa Jonathan ham khaw a rhaengsae uh. Rhap uh tih kholaeh duela a yaeh uh.
13 Afterward Dauid saide vnto the yong man that tolde it him, Whence art thou? And hee answered, I am the sonne of a stranger an Amalekite.
Te phoeiah amah taengla aka puen camoe te David loh, “Nang me lamkah lae,” a ti nah hatah, “Kai tah Amalek yinlai, hlang capa ni,” a ti nah.
14 And Dauid said vnto him, How wast thou not afrayd, to put forth thine hand to destroy the Anoynted of the Lord?
Tedae anih te David loh, “BOEIPA kah a koelh te thup hamla kut na hlah te balae tih na rhih pawh?” a ti nah.
15 Then Dauid called one of his yong men, and said, Goe neere, and fall vpon him. And hee smote him that he dyed.
Te phoeiah David loh cadong pakhat te a khue tih, “Thoeih lamtah, a cuuk thil,” a ti nah. Te dongah a ngawn tih duek.
16 Then said Dauid vnto him, Thy blood be vpon thine owne head: for thine owne mouth hath testified against thee, saying, I haue slaine the Lords Anoynted.
Anih te David loh, “'BOEIPA kah a koelh te kai loh ka duek sak,’ na ti tih na ka loh namah taengah a phoe coeng dongah na thii khaw namah thii vanbangla namah lu soah tla saeh,” a ti nah.
17 Then Dauid mourned with this lamentation ouer Saul, and ouer Ionathan his sonne,
Saul neh a capa Jonathan te David loh rhahlung neh a rhaengsae.
18 (Also he bade them teach the children of Iudah to shoote, as it is written in the booke of Iasher)
Te dongah Jashar cabu dongkah a daek liva laa he Judah ca rhoek a cang ham a thui.
19 O noble Israel, hee is slane vpon thy hie places: how are the mightie ouerthrowen!
Israel kirhang hlangrhalh nang loh, hmuensang ah balae tih a rhok la a cung uh.
20 Tell it not in Gath, nor publish it in the streetes of Ashkelon, lest the daughters of the Philistims reioyce, lest the daughters of the vncircumcised triumph.
Gath ah na puen pawh, Ashkelon tollong ah khaw na phong pawh. Philisti nu loh n'kokhah ve pumdul nu rhoek sundaep uh ve.
21 Ye mountaines of Gilboa, vpon you be neither dewe nor raine, nor be there fieldes of offrings: for there the shielde of the mightie is cast downe, the shielde of Saul, as though he had not bene anointed with oyle.
Gilboa tlang ah buemtui tla boel saeh, nang soah khotlan khaw bo boel saeh. Saul kah photling, hlangrhalh photling te na tuei dongah khocang hmuen loh situi nen khaw koelh boel saeh.
22 The bow of Ionathan neuer turned backe, neither did the sword of Saul returne emptie from the blood of the slaine, and from the fatte of the mightie.
Hlangrhalh tha neh salaem thii he, Jonathan kah liva loh a hnuk la balkhong tak pawt tih Saul kah cunghang khaw kuttling la a mael moenih.
23 Saul and Ionathan were louely and pleasant in their liues, and in their deaths they were not deuided: they were swifter then eagles, they were stronger then lions.
Saul neh Jonathan lung uh rhoi. A hing khuiah naepnoi rhoi tih a duek vaengah tuiphih pawh. Aatha lakah yanghoep rhoi tih, sathueng lakah a na rhoi.
24 Yee daughters of Israel, weepe for Saul, which clothed you in skarlet, with pleasures, and hanged ornaments of gold vpon your apparel.
Nangmih a lingdik neh omthennah aka bawn tih, na pueinak dongah sui cangen neh aka cam Israel nu rhoek loh, Saul te rhah uh lah.
25 Howe were the mightie slaine in the mids of the battel! O Ionathan, thou wast slaine in thine hie places.
Na hmuensang kah Jonathan te, hlangrhalh rhoek loh caemrhal laklo ah a rhok la a cungku sakuh.
26 Wo is me for thee, my brother Ionathan: very kinde hast thou bene vnto me: thy loue to me was wonderfull, passing the loue of women:
Ka manuca Jonathan nang ham kai n'daengdaeh. Kai taengah na hlahmae sut tih, yuu kah lungnah lakah khaw kai ham tah, nang kah lungnah ni khobaerhambae coeng.
27 howe are the mightie ouerthrowen, and the weapons of warre destroyed!
Balae tih hlangrhalh rhoek a cungku uh vaengah, caemtloek kah hnopai khaw a paltham.
