1 Lengte 13
1 Pakai thupeh dungjuiyin, Pathen mikhat Judahh akonin Bethel’ah ahungin, Jeroboam in maicham ajot’a gimnamtui hal ding agah got laitah’in aga lhung in ahi.
And lo! a man of God, came in out of Judah, by the word of Yahweh, unto Bethel, —as Jeroboam was standing by the altar, to make a perfume.
2 Hichun Pakai thupeh dungjuiyin, ahung apengjah jengin, “Vo maicham maicham! Pakaiyin hitin aseiye, ‘David chilhah lah’a Josiah kiti khat hung peng ding ahi. Amahin tua cheptan loute maicham a lhacha’a pang ji ho, nachunga kilhaina gan thatji thempu ho hi nangma chunga athagam ding chule na chung ahi mihem gule chang hung kilhut vam ding ahi, tin ahung seije,” ati.
And he made proclamation against the altar, by the word of Yahweh, and said, O altar! altar! Thus, saith Yahweh, —Lo! a son to be born unto the house of David, Josiah his name, who shall sacrifice upon thee the priests of the high-places, who are making a perfume upon thee, and, human bones, shall be burned upon thee;
3 Hiche nikho mama chun Pathen in a Thupeh adih ahi hetthei nan, melchihna khat apen ahi. Aman ajah’a, “Pakaiyin hiche melchihna hi pe dingin kitepna aneiye; hiche maicham hi kehni hung kiso ding chule avut vam ho chu tol’a hung kithe lha ding ahi,” ati.
and he shall give, on that day, a sign, saying, This, is the sign of which Yahweh hath spoken, —Lo! the altar, is to be rent, and the ashes that are upon thee shall be, poured out!
4 Jeroboam Lengpan Bethel maicham douna hung kisei chu ajah phat in, themgaopa chu akoh-in, “Hiche pachu man un!” tin ahinsam tan ahi. Ahinlah hiche pettah chun Lengpa khut chu ahung ngoijin adingden tan, anung lahdoh jou tapon ahi.
And it came to pass, when the king heard the word of the man of God which he proclaimed against the altar in Bethel, Jeroboam thrust forth his hand, from off the altar, saying—Lay hold of him! and his hand which he had thrust forth against him was dried up, that he could not draw it back to him.
5 Hiche pettah chun maicham chu ahung lengkeh jengin, Pathen mipan aseibang bangin maicham sunga kon chun vutvam jouse chu ahung kibo lhan ahi.
Moreover, the altar, was rent, and the ashes poured out from the altar, —according to the sign which the man of God had given, by the word of Yahweh.
6 Lengpa chu Pathen mipa kom’a hung peng jah jengin, “Pakai na Pathen heng’a ka khut adamthei na dingin nei taopeh tan,” ati. Hichun Pathen mipa chu Pakai kom’a atao tan ahile Lengpa khut chu adamhel jengin achat le theitan ahi.
Then responded the king and said unto the man of God—Appease, I pray thee, the face of Yahweh thy God, and pray for me, that my hand may be restored unto me. So the man of God appeased the face of Yahweh, and the hand of the king was restored unto him, and became as aforetime.
7 Hichun Lengpan Pathen mipa kom a chun, “Hungin ka in lang’a che hi tin, an hung nen lang kipa thilpeh jong nape ing’e,” ati.
Then spake the king unto the man of God, Come home with me, and refresh thyself, —and let me give thee a present.
8 Pathen mipan Lengpa kom achun, “Na lenggam akeh khat neipeh ding hi jong leh nang toh kilhon khom pong’e, keiman hiche mun’a hi nehle chah kahol lou ding ahi,
But the man of God said unto the king—If thou wouldst give me the half of thy house, I would not go in with thee, —neither would I eat bread or drink water, in this place;
9 Ajeh chu Pakai Pathen in, nangman hiche munna naum laisea neh le chah nahol lou ding chuleh hiche lampi mama a hi Judah gam mun na hung kile kit ding ahi, tin athupeh einei jin ahi,” ati.
for, so, he charged me, by the word of Yahweh, saying, Thou shalt not eat bread, nor shalt thou drink water, —neither shalt thou come back by the way thou wentest.
10 Hijeh chun aman Bethel adalhan lam chom aho in ainlang ajon tan ahi.
So he departed another way, —and went not back by the way by which he came unto Bethel.
11 Hichepet hin Bethel muna chun themgao tehse khat ana cheng in, chuin achapate chu ainmun’u ahunglhun phat in, Bethel a Pathen mipan athilbol ho chu ana seipeh tan ahi. Chuleh hiche Lengpa kom’a a thusei ho jong chu a seipeh un ahi.
But, a certain aged prophet, was dwelling in Bethel, —whose sons came in and related to him all the deeds which the man of God had done that day in Bethel—and the words which he had spoken unto the king, and they related them to their father.
12 Hichun tehsepu chun, “Hoilang che tantem?” tin adong in ahi leh, amahon Pathen mipan hoiche lang pen aho ham tichu apao chu ana seipeh un ahi.
And their father said unto them, Which way then went he? Now his sons had seen the way which the man of God went who had come in out of Judah.
13 Tehsepu chun achate kom ah, “Gangtah in sangan chung’a chun toupha nei koi loiyun,” atinle, achaten sangan chunga chu toupha chu akoi peh un, ama jong atou doh in,
So he said unto his sons, Saddle for me, the ass. And they saddled for him the ass, and he rode thereon;
14 Pathen mipa chu adeltan ahileh, ama chu thingphung lentah khat noija chun ana tou agamudoh in ahi. Tehsepun, “Judah gam’a kona hung Pathen mipa chu na him?” atileh aman jong, “Henge ama chu ka hi naiye,” ati.
and went after the man of God, and found him, sitting under an oak. And he said unto him—Art, thou, the man of God who came in out of Judah? And he said—I am.
15 Hichun aman Pathen mipa koma chun, “Hung in ka in ah bu hung nen,” ati.
Then said he unto him, Come home with me, —and eat bread.
16 Aman a donbut in, “Ahipoi kei hung thei pong’e, keima hiche mun’a hi anneh tuidon bol thei pong’e,
And he said—I may not return with thee, nor go in with thee, —neither will I eat bread or drink water with thee, in this place;
17 Ajeh chu Pakaiyin hiche munna naum laisen anneh tuidon nabol lou ding ahi, chu leh na hungna lampi hi mang cha a nahung kile theilou ding ahi, tin ei sei peh in ahi,” ati.
for there came a message unto me by the word of Yahweh, Thou shalt neither eat bread, nor drink water there, —thou shalt not turn back to come by the way by which thou wentest.
18 Ahin tehsepun adonbut in, “Kei jong themgao khat kahi, Pakaiya konin vantil khat in hiche thupeh hi ei hinpen, ama chu na in’a pui inlang an nehsah in tui donsah in eiti,” ati. Amavang tehsepu chun ajou asei ahi.
And he said to him-I also, am a prophet, like unto thee, and, a messenger, hath spoken unto me, by the word of Yahweh, saying—Bring him back with thee, into thy house, that he may eat bread, and drink water. He deceived him.
19 Hiti chun akinungle lhontan, Pathen mipan tehsepu in achun an anen, tui adon tan ahi.
So he went back with him, and did eat bread in his house, and drank water.
20 Hitia chu amani atou khompet lhon chun Pakaija konin Themgao tehsepu kom achun thupeh khat ahung lhung tan ahile,
And so it was, as, they, were sitting at the table, yea, so it was, that the word of Yahweh came unto the prophet who had brought him back;
21 Ama jong Judahh a kona hung Pathen mipa koma chun apeng jah in, “Nangin Pakai thupeh chu na sukeh’in, Pakai na Pathen in thu napeh dungjui jin na chon tapoi.
and he cried out unto the man of God who had come in out of Judah, saying, Thus, saith Yahweh, —Forasmuch as thou hast rebelled against the bidding of Yahweh, and hast not kept the commandment which Yahweh thy God commanded thee;
22 Hilai munna na hung kilen, na nen, na don in, ne hih in don hih in kati chu na sumil tai. Hiti ahiyeh chun, natahsa hi napu napate lupna a kivuilou ding ahitai,” ati.
but hast returned, and eaten bread and drunk water, in the place of which he said unto thee, Thou mayest neither eat bread nor drink water: thy dead body shall not enter the burying-place of thy fathers.
23 Pathen mipan aneh a adon jouvin Themgao tehsepu chun ama sangan chunga chun toupha apha dohpeh in,
And it came to pass, after he had eaten bread, and after he had drunk, that he saddled for him the ass, for the prophet whom he had brought back.
24 Hichun Pathen mipa chu akipatdoh tan ahi. Hitia chu inlam jona ache laitah in, humpi khat atoh khan athat tan ahi. Atahsa chu lamlen chung ah akijamin, sangan le humpi chu ana ding khom lhonin ahi.
And, when he had gone, there met him a lion by the way, and slew him, —and his dead body was cast out in the way, and, the ass, was standing near it, and, the lion, was standing near the dead body.
25 Mi phabep in along lampia kijam le akoma sakei ding atoh khauvin, hichun Themgao tehsepu umna Bethel geiyin acheuvin athilmu u chu aga seipeh tauve.
And lo! certain men, passing by, saw the dead body, cast out in the way, and the lion standing near the dead body, —so they came in, and spake [of it] in the city, wherein, the aged prophet, dwelt.
26 Themgao tehsepu chun athu ajahdoh phat’in, “Hiche Pathen mipa hin, Pathen thupeh anit lou ahin, Pakaiyin keipi chu athasah’a athusei chu asuh bulhit ahi tai,” atin ahi.
And, when the prophet who had brought him back from the way heard of it, he said—The man of God, it is, who rebelled against the bidding of Yahweh, —therefore did Yahweh deliver him unto the lion, and it hath torn him and slain him, according to the word of Yahweh which he spake unto him.
27 Themgaopa luipan chun achate kom’ah, “Sangan chung’a chun toupha hin koijun,” atin, ahin koipeh phat un,
And he spake unto his sons, saying, Saddle for me the ass. And they saddled it.
28 Ama ache in, atahsa lamlen chunga lum chu agamu’n, a sangan leh humpi akom’a ana din nah lai vang'in, humpi chun ana nedeh pon chule Sangan jong chu ima ana tipon ahi.
So he went and found his dead body, cast out in the way, with, the ass and the lion, standing near the dead body, —the lion had neither eaten the dead body, nor had it torn the ass.
29 Themgaopa chun Pathen mipa tahsa chu a sangan chung’a chun akoiyin, khopi lang a chun along op dingin ahin pon ahi.
And the prophet took up the dead body of the man of God, and laid it upon the ass, and brought it back, —and the aged prophet came into the city, to make lamentation, and to bury him.
30 Aman lhan’ah avui in, lhase tah in akap in “Vo ka sopipa,” atin ahi.
And he laid his dead body in his own grave, —and they lamented over him, [saying] —Alas, my brother!
31 Hichejou chun Themgao pa chun achate kom’ah, “Keima ka thi teng leh Pathen mipa kivuina lhan ah hin nei hin vui uvin lang, kagu hi ama gu panga hin lupsah un,” ati.
And it came to pass, after he had buried him, that he spake unto his sons, saying, When I die, then shall ye bury me in the grave wherein the man of God is buried; beside his bones, lay my bones;
32 “Ajeh chu Pakaiyin Samaria khopi sung’a khopi holah a ki semdoh semthu pathen houna maicham leh Bethel maicham douna Pakaiyin ana phondohsa chu guilhung tei ding hija ahi,” ati.
For the message which he proclaimed, by the ward of Yahweh, against the altar which is in Bethel, —and against all the houses of the high places which are in the cities of Samaria, shall surely come to pass.
33 Ahivang in hitobang thilsoh nung jengin jong, Jeroboam in athilse bolna a konin akihei mangdeh pon ahi. Aman milham lah a konin Thempu ana lheng jing nalaiyin ahi. Semthu pathen houna doiphung’a thempu dingin apang nom jouse anapan sah jengin ahi.
After this thing, Jeroboam turned not from his wicked way, —but again made, from the whole compass of the people, priests of high places, whomsoever he would, he installed, and he became priest of high places.
34 Hiche hi chonset nasatah ahung hitan chule Jeroboam chilhah ho leiset chunga konin suhmang in aumlo tan ahi.
And so this thing became the sin of the house of Jeroboam, —that it should be both taken away and destroyed, from off the face of the ground.
