1 Siangpahrang 13
1 Angbawnhaih sak hanah Jeroboam hmaicam pongah angdoet naah, Angraeng ih lok baktih toengah, Sithaw kami maeto loe Judah prae hoiah Bethel ah angzoh.
And behold, there came a man of God out of Juda by the word of the Lord to Baethel, and Jeroboam stood at the altar to sacrifice.
2 To kami loe Angraeng ih lok baktih toengah, Aw hmaicam, hmaicam; Angraeng mah hae tiah thuih; Khenah, Josiah tiah ahmin kaom, caa nongpa maeto David imthung takoh ah tapen tih; anih mah na nuiah hmuihoih thlaek hmuensang ih qaimanawk to angbawnhaih ah paek ueloe, na nuiah kami ahuhnawk to hmai hoiah thlaek tih, tiah a naa.
And he cried against the altar by the word of the Lord, and said, O altar, altar, thus saith the Lord, Behold, a son is [to be] born to the house of David, Josias by name; and he shall offer upon thee the priests of the high places, [even] of them that sacrifice upon thee, and [he] shall burn men's bones upon thee.
3 To na niah Sithaw kami mah angmathaih to paek, Hae loe Angraeng mah thuih ih angmathaih ah oh, Khenah, hmaicam to koi phom ueloe, a nui ih maiphunawk to takhoek boih tih, tiah a naa.
And in that day one shall give a sign, saying, This [is] the word which the Lord has spoken, saying, Behold, the altar is rent, and the fatness upon it shall be poured out.
4 Bethel vangpui ih hmaicam taeng hoi Sithaw kami hanghaih lok to Jeroboam siangpahrang mah thaih naah, hmaicam hoiah ban payangh moe, Anih to naeh oh; tiah a naa. Toe anih mah payangh ih ban to duek pae moe, a zuk let thai ai boeh.
And it came to pass when king Jeroboam heard the words of the man of God who called on the altar that was in Baethel, that the king stretched forth his hand from the altar, saying, Take hold of him. And, behold, his hand, which he stretched forth against him, withered, and he could not draw it back to himself.
5 Angraeng ih lok rang hoiah Sithaw kami mah paek ih angmathaih baktih toengah, hmaicam to koih phom moe, maiphunawk doeh anghaeh phang.
And the altar was rent, and the fatness was poured out from the altar, according to the sign which the man of God gave by the word of the Lord.
6 To naah siangpahrang mah Sithaw kami khaeah, Ka ban hae hoih let thai hanah, na Angraeng Sithaw khaeah tahmenhnikhaih lawk na thui paeh, tiah a naa. To pongah Angraeng ih kami mah Angraeng khaeah tahmenhaih hnik pae let; to naah siangpahrang ih ban to hoih pae, hmaloe ih baktiah oh let.
And king Jeroboam said to the man of God, Intreat the Lord thy God, and let my hand be restored to me. And the man of God intreated the Lord, and he restored the king's hand to him, and it became as before.
7 Siangpahrang mah Sithaw kami khaeah, Kai hoi nawnto im ah angzo ah loe, caaknaek koi hmuen maeto caa raeh, tangqum kang paek han, tiah a naa.
And the king said to the man of God, Enter with me into the house, and dine, and I will give thee a gift.
8 Toe Sithaw kami mah siangpahrang khaeah, Na im ahap nang paek langlacadoeh, nang khaeah kang zo mak ai; hae ah buh ka caa mak ai, tui doeh ka nae mak ai;
And the man of God said to the king, If thou shouldest give me the half of thine house, I would not go in with thee, neither will I eat bread, neither will I drink water in this place; for thus the Lord charged me by [his] word, saying,
9 Angraeng ih lok mah, Buh na caa mak ai, tui doeh na nae mak ai ueloe, nang zohhaih loklam hoiah doeh nam laem let mak ai, tiah thuih, tiah siangpahrang khaeah a thuih pae.
Eat no bread, and drink no water, and return not by the way by which thou camest.
10 To pongah anih loe loklam kalah bang hoiah caeh, angzohhaih loklam Bethel hoiah amlaem let ai.
So he departed by another way, and returned not by the way by which he came to Baethel.
11 Bethel ah tahmaa mitong maeto oh; tahmaa ih caanawk loe to na niah Sithaw kami mah sak ih hmuennawk hoi siangpahrang khaeah thuih pae ih loknawk to, ampa khaeah thuih pae o boih.
And there dwelt an old prophet in Baethel; and his sons came and told him all the works that the man of God did on that day in Baethel, and the words which he spoke to the king: and they turned the face of their father.
12 To naah ampa mah a caanawk khaeah, Anih loe naa bang ih loklam ah maw caeh? tiah a naa; Judah prae hoiah angzo Sithaw kami amlaemhaih loklam to a hnuk o pongah, a caanawk mah ampa khaeah thuih pae o.
And their father spoke to them, saying, Which way went he? and his sons shew him the way by which the man of God who came out of Juda went up.
13 To pongah anih mah a caanawk khaeah, Laa hrang na paek oh, tiah a naa. To pongah a caanawk mah anih hanah Laa hrang to paek o moe, angthueng o sak,
And he said to his sons, Saddle me the ass: and they saddled him the ass, and he mounted it,
14 Sithaw kami hnukah a caeh, oak thing tahlip ah kanghnu anih to hnuk naah, anih khaeah, Nang loe Judah prae hoiah angzo Sithaw ih kami maw? tiah a naa. Anih mah, Ue, tiah pathim pae.
and went after the man of God, and found him sitting under an oak: and he said to him, Art thou the man of God that came out of Juda? And he said to him, I [am].
15 To naah tahmaaa mah anih khaeah, Ka hnukah im ah angzoh loe, caeknaek koi hmuen maeto caa raeh, tiah a naa.
And he said to him, Come with me, and eat bread.
16 Sithaw kami mah, Na hnukah angzoh hanah kam laem let mak ai, takaw doeh ka caa mak ai ueloe, hae ah tui doeh ka nae mak ai.
And he said, I shall not by any means be able to return with thee, neither will I eat bread, neither will I drink water in this place.
17 Angraeng ih lok mah, To ah takaw na caa mak ai, tui doeh na nae mak ai ueloe, na caehhaih loklam hoiah doeh nam laem let mak ai, tiah ang thuih, tiah a naa.
For thus the Lord commanded me by word, saying, Eat not bread there, and drink not water, and return not thither by the way by which thou camest.
18 Tahmaaa mitong mah, Kai doeh nang baktih tahmaaa maeto toeng ni, Angraeng ih lok baktih toengah van kaminawk mah kai khaeah, To kami to nangmah im ah amlaemsak let ah, takaw to caa nasoe loe, tui doeh nae nasoe, tiah ang thuih, tiah a naa. Toe anih mah amsawnlok ni a thuih pae.
And he said to him, I also am a prophet as thou [art]; and an angel spoke to me by the word of the Lord, saying, Bring him back to thee into thy house, and let him eat bread and drink water: but he lied to him.
19 To pongah Sithaw kami loe anih hnukah amlaem let moe, anih im ah caak pacoengah, tui doeh a naek.
And he brought him back, and he ate bread and drank water in his house.
20 Caboi pongah anghnut hoi li naah, anih amlaem let haih tahmaa mitong khaeah Angraeng ih lok to angzoh;
And it came to pass while they were sitting at the table, that the word of the Lord came to the prophet that brought him back;
21 anih mah Judah prae hoi angzo Sithaw kami khaeah, Angraeng mah hae tiah thuih; Angraeng ih lok to na aek moe, na Angraeng Sithaw mah ang paek ih lok to na pazui ai,
and he spoke to the man of God that came out of Juda, saying, Thus saith the Lord, Because thou hast resisted the word of the Lord, and hast not kept the commandment which the Lord thy God commanded thee,
22 nam laem let moe, Angraeng mah caak moe, naek han om ai, tiah thuih ih ahmuen ah takaw na caak moe, tui na naek pongah, na qok to nam panawk ih taprong ah aphum o mak ai, tiah a thuih pae.
but hast returned, and eaten bread and drunk water in the place of which he spoke to thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat bread, and shalt not drink water; [therefore] thy body shall in nowise enter into the sepulchre of thy fathers.
23 Kamlaem let Sithaw kami loe buhcaak moe, tuinaek pacoengah, amlaem let han kathui tahmaa mitong mah Judah ih tahmaa hanah hrang to paek.
And it came to pass after he had eaten bread and drunk water, that he saddled the ass for him, and he turned and departed.
24 Loklam ah anih to kaipui mah hmaang moe, kaek maat; a qok to loklam ah suek sut, hrang hoi kaipui loe a taengah angdoet hoi.
And a lion found him in the way, and slew him; and his body was cast out in the way, and the ass was standing by it, and the lion [also] was standing by the body.
25 To ah caeh kaminawk mah vah sut ih, kadueh qok taengah kangdoe kaipui to a hnuk o naah, caeh o moe, vangpui thung kaom, tahmaa mitong khaeah thuih pae o.
And, behold, men [were] passing by, and saw the carcase cast in the way, and the lion was standing near the carcase: and they went in and spoke [of it] in the city where the old prophet dwelt.
26 Loklam hoi Sithaw kami amlaem haih let, tahmaa mitong mah to lok to thaih naah, anih loe Angraeng ih lok aek kami ni, Angraeng mah anih to kaipui khaeah paek, Angraeng mah thuih ih lok baktih toengah, anih loe kaipui mah kaek moe, hum boeh, tiah a thuih.
And [the prophet] that turned him back out of the way heard, and said, This is the man of God who rebelled against the word of the Lord.
27 Tahmaa mah a caanawk khaeah, Laa hrang to hnik, to pongah nihcae mah laa hrang to angthueng o sak.
[And he spoke to his sons, saying, Saddle me the ass, and they saddled it. ]
28 A caeh naah loklam ah vah sut ih qok to hnuk; hrang hoi kaipui loe a taengah angdoet hoi; kaipui mah kami qok to caa ai, Laa hrang doeh kaek ai.
And he went and found the body cast in the way, and the ass and the lion were standing by the body: and the lion had not devoured the body of the man of God, and had not torn the ass.
29 Tahmaa mah Sithaw kami ih qok to lak moe, hrang nuiah thuengh pacoengah, angmah avang ah amlaem haih let; anih to qah haih moe, taprong ah aphum.
And the prophet took up the body of the man of God, and laid it on his ass; and the prophet brought him back to his city, to bury him in his own tomb,
30 Sithaw kami ih qok to angmah ih taprong ah aphum pacoengah, Aw, kam nawk, tiah a qah haih.
and they bewailed him, [saying], Alas, brother.
31 Anih to aphum pacoengah a caanawk khaeah, Ka duek naah, Sithaw kaminawk aphumhaih taprong ah na phum oh loe, anih ih ahuh taengah ka huh hae suem oh;
And it came to pass after he had lamented him, that he spoke to his sons, saying, Whenever I die, bury me in this tomb wherein the man of God is buried; lay me by his bones, that my bones may be preserved with his bones.
32 Bethel vangpui ih hmaicam hoi Samaria vangpui hmuensang ah kaom im kawng loe, Sithaw mah thuih ih lok baktih toengah akoep tih, tiah a naa.
For the word will surely come to pass which he spoke by the word of the Lord against the altar in Baethel, and against the high houses in Samaria.
33 To tiah oh pacoeng naah doeh Jeroboam loe a sak ih kahoih ai loklam hoiah amkhrai ai, kami rumramnawk to hmuensang ih qaima ah a suek let; qaima toksak han koeh kaminawk boih to hmuensang ah qaima toksakhaih to a paek.
And after this Jeroboam turned not from his sin, but he turned and made of part of the people priests of the [high places]: whoever would, he consecrated him, and he became a priest for the high places.
34 Hae hmuen loe Jeroboam imthung takoh zaehaih ah oh moe, to tiah sak pongah Jeroboam ih acaeng to long pum hoi tahmaat boih hanah zaehaih ah angcoengsak.
And this thing became sin to the house of Jeroboam, even to its destruction and its removal from the face of the earth.
