1 Dungkrhoekhaih 10
1 Philistin kaminawk mah Israel caanawk to tuk o; Israel caanawk loe nihcae hmaa ah cawnh o moe, Gilboa mae nuiah kami paroeai duek o.
Now the Philistines fought against Israel: and the men of Israel fled from before the Philistines, and fell down slain on Mount Gilboa.
2 Philistinnawk loe Saul hoi anih ih capanawk to patom o moe, Saul ih capa Jonathan, Abinadab hoi Malki-Shua to hum pae o.
The Philistines followed hard after Saul and after his sons; and the Philistines killed Jonathan, and Abinadab, and Malkishua, the sons of Saul.
3 Saul to kanung aep ah tuk o, kalii kaat kop kaminawk mah Saul to kah o moe, ahmaa caak o sak.
The battle grew fierce against Saul, and the archers overtook him; and he was wounded by the archers.
4 Saul mah angmah ih maiphawmaica sinkung khaeah, Na sumsen to aphongh loe na thun ah; to tih ai nahaeloe tangzat hin aat ai kaminawk mah kai hae na pacaekthlaek o tih, tiah a naa. Toe anih ih maiphawmaica sin kami loe zit pongah, anih to thun ai. To pongah Saul mah angmah ih sumsen to lak moe, a sumsen pongah angthunh.
Then said Saul to his armor bearer, "Draw your sword, and thrust me through with it, lest these uncircumcised come and torture me." But his armor bearer would not, for he was greatly afraid. Therefore Saul took his sword, and fell on it.
5 Saul loe duek boeh, tiah maiphaw sin kami mah hnuk naah, anih doeh angmah ih sumsen hoiah angthunh moe, duek toeng.
When his armor bearer saw that Saul was dead, he likewise fell on his sword, and died.
6 Saul loe angmah ih imthung takoh ah kaom, a capa thumtonawk hoi nawnto duek.
So Saul died, and his three sons; and all his house died together.
7 Azawn ah kaom Israelnawk mah, nihcae ih misatuh kaminawk loe cawnh o ving boeh, Saul hoi anih ih caanawk doeh duek o boeh ti, tiah panoek o naah, avang to cawnh o taak boih; to pacoengah Philistinnawk angzoh o moe, avang ah khosak o.
When all the men of Israel who were in the valley saw that they fled, and that Saul and his sons were dead, they forsook their cities, and fled; and the Philistines came and lived in them.
8 Khawnbangah loe Philistinnawk mah kadueh kaminawk ih khukbuen to khring hanah angzoh o, to naah Gilboa mae ah kadueh Saul hoi anih ih capanawk to hnuk o.
It happened on the next day, when the Philistines came to strip the slain, that they found Saul and his sons fallen on Mount Gilboa.
9 Nihcae mah Saul ih khukbuen to khringh pae o, anih ih lu hoi maiphaw to a lak o moe, angmacae kaminawk hoi sakcop ih krangnawk khaeah tamthang thuih o hanah, Philistin prae boih ah kami to patoeh o.
They stripped him, and took his head, and his armor, and sent into the land of the Philistines all around, to carry the news to their idols, and to the people.
10 Anih ih maiphaw to angmacae sithawnawk suekhaih im ah a suek o; anih ih lu to Dagon tempul thungah bangh o.
They put his armor in the house of their gods, and fastened his head in the house of Dagon.
11 Philistinawk mah Saul nuiah sak o ih hmuen boih to Gilead prae Jabesh vangpui ah kaom kaminawk mah thaih o naah,
When all the inhabitants of Jabesh Gilead heard all that the Philistines had done to Saul,
12 misahoih kaminawk boih caeh o moe, Saul hoi anih capanawk ih qok to lak o pacoengah, Jabesh ah amlaem o haih; nihcae ih ahuhnawk to Jabesh avang ih Oak thing tlim ah aphum o, nihcae mah ni sarihto thung buhzah o haih.
all the valiant men arose, and took away the body of Saul, and the bodies of his sons, and brought them to Jabesh, and buried their bones under the oak in Jabesh, and fasted seven days.
13 Saul loe Angraeng ih lok tahngai ai, Angraeng hmaa ah zaehaih to sak moe, Angraeng khaeah hni ai ah, taqawk oephaih hoiah pakhra kawk thaih kaminawk khaeah lokdueng lat pongah,
So Saul died for his trespass which he committed against Jehovah, because of the word of Jehovah, which he did not keep; and also because he asked counsel of one who had a familiar spirit, to inquire thereby,
14 Angraeng mah anih to paduek moe, Jesse capa David khaeah prae to paek ving.
and did not inquire of Jehovah: therefore he killed him, and turned the kingdom to David the son of Jesse.
