< 2 Samuel 23 >

1 He tah David kah olka, Jesse capa David kah hmailong olphong, Jakob Pathen loh a koelh tih sang la thoh hlang kah olphong, Israel kah laa ding ni.

Now these are David’s last words. David the son of Isai said: The man to whom it was appointed concerning the Christ of the God of Jacob, the excellent psalmist of Israel said:

2 BOEIPA kah Mueihla he kai dongah cal tih, a ol te ka lai dongah om.

The spirit of the Lord hath spoken by me and his word by my tongue.

3 Israel Pathen loh kai taengah a thui tih, “Israel lungpang tah hlang soah a dueng la aka taemrhai tih Pathen hinyahnah neh aka taem aka rhai la om.

The God of Israel said to me, the strong one of Israel spoke, the ruler of men, the just ruler in the fear of God.

4 Mincang khosae khomik aka thoeng bangla, mincang khomai a om pawt dongah a aa bangla, khotlan hnukah diklai lamkah baelhing banghui ni.

As the light of the morning, when the sun riseth, shineth in the morning without clouds, and as the grass springeth out of the earth by rain.

5 Ka imkhui he Pathen neh doda uh ngawn pawt cakhaw kumhal paipi tah kamah taengah ni a khueh. A cungkuem dongah rhong a tael tih ka daemnah cungkuem te a ngaithuen. Te dongah ka hue ngaih boeih te khaw cuen voel pawh.

Neither is my house so great with God, that he should make with me an eternal covenant, firm in all things and assured. For he is all my salvation, and all my will: neither is there ought thereof that springeth not up.

6 Tedae aka muen tah hling bangla a thaek banlak tih kut nen khaw lo voel pawh.

But transgressors shall all of them be plucked up as thorns: which are not taken away with hands.

7 Amih aka ben hlang long tah thi neh caai tueng khaw cung tih amah hmuen ah hmai neh a hoeh la a hoeh uh,” a ti.

And if a man will touch them, he must be armed with iron and with the staff of a lance: but they shall be set on fire and burnt to nothing.

8 He rhoek he tah David kah hlangrhalh rhoek kah a ming ni. Takhemoni Joshebbashebeth tah boeilu la om tih anih tah amah kah caai neh yahuem sut. Caai nen te hlang ya rhet mai voei khat la a rhokpam sak.

These are the names of the valiant men of David. Jesbaham sitting in the chair was the wisest chief among the three, he was like the most tender little worm of the wood, who killed eight hundred men at one onset.

9 Anih hnuk, anih hnukah tah Akhohi capa Dodo, Dodo capa Eleazar khaw David taengkah hlangrhalh pathum khuiah thum. Amih te a veet tih caemtloek ham Philisti rhoek a tingtun uh vaengah Israel hlang khaw a khuen uh.

After him was Eleazar the son of Dodo the Ahohite, one of the three valiant men that were with David when they defied the Philistines, and they were there gathered together to battle.

10 Te dongah anih te thoo tih a kut a kohnue neh cunghang dongah a kut rhap a khoom duela Philisti te a tloek. Te dongah BOEIPA loh amah khohnin ah loeihnah tanglue a saii pah tih pilnam khaw anih hnukah hnopai pit ham dawk la ha pawk uh.

And when the men of Israel were gone away, he stood and smote the Philistines till his hand was weary, and grew stiff with the sword: and the Lord wrought a great victory that day: and the people that were fled away, returned to take spoils of them that were slain.

11 Anih phoeiah Harari Agee capa Shammah a om vaengah Philisti tah mulhing bangla tingtun uh. Te vaengah lohma kah khamyai ah rhacik khawk om tapkhoeh. Pilnam tah Philisti mikhmuh lamloh rhaelrham coeng.

And after him was Semma the son of Age of Arari. And the Philistines were gathered together in a troop: for there was a field full of lentils. And when the people were fled from the face of the Philistines,

12 Te vaengah khamyai bangli ah pai tih pilnam te a huul. Philisti te a ngawn vaengah BOEIPA loh loeihnah tanglue a saii pah.

He stood in the midst of the field, and defended it, and defeated the Philistines: and the Lord gave a great victory.

13 A lu sawmthum pathum khuikah sawmthum te suntla uh tih cangah vaengah Adullam lungko kah David taengla pawk uh. Te vaengah Philisti mulhing tah Rephaim kol ah rhaeh pueng.

Moreover also before this the three who were princes among the thirty, went down and came to David in the harvest time into the cave of Odollam: and the camp of the Philistines was in the valley of the giants.

14 Te vaengah David te rhalvong khuiah om tih Philisti rhaltawt hmuen tah Bethlehem ah om van.

And David was then in a hold. and there was a garrison of the Philistines then in Bethlehem.

15 David loh vongka kah Bethlehem tuito tui ke a ngaidam tih, “U long nim kai n'tul lah ve,” a ti.

And David longed, and said: O that some man would get me a drink of the water out of the cistern, that is in Bethlehem, by the gate.

16 Te dongah hlangrhalh pathum loh Philisti kah rhaehhmuen te a va uh tih vongka kah Bethlehem tuito tui a than uh. Te phoeiah a khuen uh tih David taengla a pawk puei uh. Tedae a ok ham huem pawt tih BOEIPA hmaiah a hawk.

And the three valiant men broke through the camp of the Philistines, and drew water out of the cistern of Bethlehem, that was by the gate, and brought it to David: but he would not drink, but offered it to the Lord,

17 Te vaengah, “He ka saii ham kai lamkah tah savisava BOEIPA, a hinglu aka caeh puei hlang rhoek kah a thii a? a ti tih ok ham huem pawh. Hlangrhalh pathum long khaw te tlam te ni a saii uh.

Saying: The Lord be merciful to me, that I may not do this: shall I drink the blood of these men that went, and the peril of their lives? therefore he would not drink. These things did these three mighty men.

18 Zeruiah capa Joab mana Abishai tah pathum kah a lu la om. Anih loh a caai te a haeng tih ya thum a rhokpam sak. Te dongah anih tah pathum lakah a ming om.

Abisai also the brother of Joab, the son of Sarvia, was chief among three: and he lifted up his spear against three hundred whom he slew, and he was renowned among the three,

19 Pathum lakah a thangpom het a? Te dongah amih taengah mangpa la om cakhaw pathum te a pha moenih.

And the noblest of three, and was their chief, but to the three first he attained not.

20 Kabzeel lamkah Jehoiada capa Benaiah tah hlangtang capa, tatthai neh a bisai khaw khuet. Anih loh Moab kah sathueng hlang panit te a ngawn. Te phoeiah anih te suntla tih vuel hla dongah vaam kah sathueng khui ah aka om sathueng te a ngawn.

And Banaias the son of Joiada a most valiant man, of great deeds, of Cabseel: he slew the two lions of Moab, and he went down, and slew a lion in the midst of a pit, in the time of snow.

21 Anih loh Egypt hlang tah a mueimae hlang aka then khaw a ngawn bal. Egypt kut dongah caai om dae a conghol neh a suntlak thil. Te phoeiah Egypt kut lamkah caai te a rhawth pah tih amah caai neh amah te a ngawn.

He also slew an Egyptian, a man worthy to be a sight, having a spear in his hand: but he went down to him with a rod, and forced the spear out of the hand of the Egyptian, and slew him with his own spear.

22 Te te a saii dongah Jehoiada capa Benaiah tah hlangrhalh pathum dongah a ming thum.

These things did Banaias the son of Joiada.

23 Sawmthum lakah a thangpom dongah pathum taengah thum sak voel pawt tih anih te David amah kah a taengom la a khueh.

And he was renowned among the three valiant men, who were the most honourable among the thirty: but he attained riot to the first three: and David made him of his privy council.

24 Sawmthum khuiah Joab mana Asahel neh Bethlehem kah Dodo capa Elhanan,

Asael the brother of Joab was one of the thirty, Elehanan the son of Dodo of Bethlehem.
