1 Thusimbu 20
1 Chuche kum chavang lai a lengpa galbol dia ahung chun Israel mite chun Job lamkai na noi in Ammon mite anasat uvin ahi. Hichun aman Rabbah khopi chu ana umkhom in ahi. Hinlah David chu Jerusalem ah chun ana umden in ahi.
And it cometh to pass, at the time of the turn of the year — at the time of the going out of the messengers — that Joab leadeth out the force of the host, and destroyeth the land of the sons of Ammon, and cometh in and beseigeth Rabbah — David is abiding in Jerusalem — and Joab smiteth Rabbah, and breaketh it down.
2 David Rabbah khopi ahung lhun in lengpa lallukhuh chu aladoh in aman akikhuh in ahi. Hiche lal lukhuh chu sana pah jem a kisem chule agih dan jong pound som sagi le nga ahi. David in jong thilman tampi khopia chun ahin kipoh in ahi.
And David taketh the crown of their king from off his head, and findeth it [in] weight a talent of gold, and in it a precious stone, and it is on the head of David: and spoil of the city he hath brought out very much,
3 Aman Rabbah kho mite chu soh in ana mang in, amaho chu thingat, thih khenchi a leilai le heicha’a thing chan in anapan sah in, Ammon mite chu engbolna ana pen ahi. Chujouvin David le asepaite chu Jerusalem a anache tauve.
and the people who [are] in it he hath brought out, and setteth to the saw, and to cutting instruments of iron, and to axes; and thus doth David to all cities of the sons of Ammon, and David turneth back, and all the people, to Jerusalem.
4 Chujouvin jong Israel te le Philistine techu Gazer mun a gal in ana kisat kit in ahi. Hiche akisat nau va hin, Hushah kho a Sebbecai jin milen galhat minthang ho chilhah a kon Saph kitipa ana that in chule Philistine ten gal analel tauvin ahi.
And it cometh to pass, after this, that there remaineth war in Gezer with the Philistines, then hath Sibbechai the Hushathite smitten Sippai, of the children of the giant, and they are humbled.
5 Philistine te toh gal kisat na mun khat ma ana um kit in, hichea chun Elhanan chapa Jair chun Gath khoa kon Goliath sopipa Lahmi chu anathat in ahi. Chule Lahmi tenglum chu lentah ahi.
And there is again war with the Philistines, and Elhanan son of Jair smiteth Lahmi, brother of Goliath the Gittite, the wood of whose spear [is] like a beam of weavers.
6 Philistine tetoh Gath khopia gal ana kisat namun uva jong chun milentah galhat mi khut jung gup le keng jung gup nei abon'a somni le li nei khat ana pang e, amahi gollui lai galhang minthang ho son chilhah a kon ahi.
And there is again war in Gath, and there is a man of measure, and his fingers and his toes [are] six and six, twenty and four, and also, he hath been born to the giant.
7 Chule aman Israel mite totnop nale noise tah a anabol jeh chun David sopipa Shimea chapa Jonathan in’a anathat tai.
And he reproacheth Israel, and smite him doth Jonathan son of Shimea, brother of David.
8 David in anatha Philistine galhang mite hi Gath kho akon milui galhang ho son chilhah jeng anahiu ve.
These were born to the giant in Gath, and they fall by the hand of David, and by the hand of his servants.
