< 1 Samuel 28 >
1 Phat chomkhat jouvin, Philistine miten gamsunga a sepai jouse akikhom un, Israel mite toh kisat ding in akigo tauve. Achish lengpan David jah’ah, “Nangle na sepaiten galsat na-a neipan khompi diu ginchat aume,” ati.
And it came to pass in those days that the Philistines gathered together their armies for warfare to fight against Israel. And Achish said to David, Know thou assuredly that thou shalt go out with me to the camp, thou and thy men.
2 David jong nom in, “Aphalheh jenge! Ichan kabol the idol natahsa tah a namu ding ahi,” ati. Chuti chun Achish in David jah-a, “Keiman keima hinkho eivengtup dia kasem ding nahi,” ati.
And David said to Achish, Thereby thou shalt know what thy servant can do. And Achish said to David, Therefore will I make thee keeper of my person for ever.
3 Samuel athi phat in, Israel pumpin alhaset piuvin, along a-op uvin, ama akhopi sung ma ma Ramah ah avuitauvin ahi. Chule Saul in agamsunga gaochang jouse le phunsan ho athisa ho lhagao ho toh kihoutoh ho jouse anomang tan ahi.
(Now Samuel was dead, and all Israel had lamented him, and they had buried him in Ramah, even in his own city. And Saul had put away the necromancers and the soothsayers out of the land.)
4 Philistine te akikou khom’un, Shunem ah ngahmun asauvin chule Saul in Israel sepai jouse akhomin Gilboa ah ngahmun asem in ahi.
And the Philistines gathered themselves together, and came and encamped in Shunem; and Saul gathered all Israel together, and they encamped in Gilboa.
5 Saul in Philistine sepai tamtah amuphat in akicha behseh jeng in alungthim alinglao lheh jengtan ahi.
And when Saul saw the camp of the Philistines, he was afraid, and his heart greatly trembled.
6 Hichun aman, ipi kabolding hitam tin Pakai adongin, ahinlah Pakaiyin adonbut tapoi, mang hihenlang, chule Urim le Thummim phunsan jong chule themgao hijongle iman adonbut tapoi.
And Saul inquired of Jehovah; but Jehovah did not answer him, either by dreams, or by Urim, or by prophets.
7 Chuin Saul in athumop a pang ho asol’in, “Cheuvin lang Gaochang numei nei gahol peh un, keima chengting ama nu chu kagadoh ding ahi,” ati. Hitichun athumop a pang ho khat in, “Endor mun ah Gaochang numei khat aume,” ahin atipeh in ahi.
Then said Saul to his servants, Seek me a woman that has a spirit of Python, that I may go to her and inquire of her. And his servants said to him, Behold, there is a woman who has a spirit of Python at En-dor.
8 Hichun Saul in athempu von chol akhellin von mai mai in akivon in, jan in sepai mi ni akipuijin numeinu in'a chun acheuvin ahi. Chun aman, “Keiman athisa mi khat kakihoupi nome, a lhagao neikou peh thei dem?” ati.
And Saul disguised himself, and put on other garments, and he went, and two men with him, and they came to the woman by night; and he said, I pray thee, divine to me by the spirit of Python, and bring me [him] up whom I shall name to thee.
9 Numeinu chun, “Nangman tha ding a neigot ham? Saul in gamsunga kona gaochang jouse le phunsan them jouse adelmang hi nahet ding ahi. Chutia ahileh nangman ipi dinga keima kipalsahtei ding neigot ham?” ati.
And the woman said to him, Behold, thou knowest what Saul has done, how he has cut off the necromancers and the soothsayers out of the land; and why layest thou a snare for my life, to cause me to die?
10 Ahinlah Saul chu Pakai min pan in akihah sellin akitem in ahi. “Tahbeh’a hingjing Pakai mina kasei ahi, hiche nabol jeh hin ima thilse umponte,” ati.
And Saul swore unto her by Jehovah, saying, [As] Jehovah liveth, there shall no punishment happen to thee for this thing.
11 Achainan numeinun jong, “Aphai, koipentah lhagao kakoudoh peh ding ham?” atile Saul in, “Samuel lhagao neikoudoh peh in,” ati.
Then said the woman, Whom shall I bring up to thee? And he said, Bring me up Samuel.
12 Numeinun Samuel amu phat in, ahung pengjah jeng in, “Nangman neijou lhep’e, nangma Saul nahi!” ati.
And when the woman saw Samuel, she cried out with a loud voice; and the woman spoke to Saul, saying, Why hast thou deceived me? Even thou art Saul.
13 Hichun Lengpan amanu komah, “Kicha hih in, koi namum?” atile amanun jong, “Pathen khat kamun leisetna konin ahung pot doh’e,” ahin ti.
And the king said to her, Be not afraid; but what didst thou see? And the woman said to Saul, I saw a god ascending out of the earth.
14 Saul in, “Amapa chu koitoh kilou’em? Ama chu tehsepu ahin, sangkhol chol khat aki’ah e,” ati. Saul in Samuel ahi ahechentan, chuin amasanga tol’ah abohkhup’in chibai abohtai.
And he said to her, What is his form? And she said, An old man comes up; and he is covered with a mantle. And Saul knew that it was Samuel, and he stooped with his face to the ground, and bowed himself.
15 Hichun Samuel in, “Ipi jeh’a neisuh boiya, neinung kou ham?” Chuin Saul in, “Ajeh chu keima kaboina asanglhehtai, Philistine ten galsat din ahung kigo uvin, Pathen in eidalhatan, themgao ahiloule mang in jong eihetsah tapoi. Hijeh a chu nang kahin doh ahi, Ipi katiding hitam?” ati.
And Samuel said to Saul, Why hast thou disquieted me, to bring me up? And Saul said, I am sore distressed; for the Philistines make war against me, and God is departed from me, and answers me no more, neither by prophets nor by dreams; therefore I have called thee, that thou mayest make known to me what I shall do.
16 Ahinla Samuel in adonbut in, “Pathen in nadalhah tah’a, chule agalmi nahitah’a ahile, Ibola kei neidoh ham?” ati.
And Samuel said, Why then dost thou inquire of me, seeing Jehovah is departed from thee, and is become thine enemy?
17 “Pathenyin asei banga abol ahitai. Nalengam nanga kona alhe lhah a chule David joh apeh ahitai.
And Jehovah has done for himself as he spoke by me; and Jehovah has rent the kingdom out of thy hand, and given it to thy neighbour, to David.
18 Pakai thupeh jouse napalkeh’a, alungnat na naboldoh a, Amalek mite le anei jouseu nasuhmang hel lou jeh'a tuahi Pakaiyin hita abol ahitai.
Because thou didst not hearken to the voice of Jehovah, and didst not execute his fierce anger upon Amalek, therefore has Jehovah done this thing to thee this day.
19 Chule jing nikho teng le nang le na sepai teho jouse Philistine te khut’a apeh doh ding ahitai, chule nangma le nachapa kaheng’a hung ding nahi lhon tai. Israel sepaite jong Pakaiyin Philistine te khut’a pedohtante,” ati
And Jehovah will also give Israel with thee into the hand of the Philistines; and to-morrow shalt thou and thy sons be with me; the army of Israel also will Jehovah give into the hand of the Philistines.
20 Samuel thucheng seiho atijat behseh jeng jeh in, Saul chu tol’ah akijam jangden jengin ahi. Sun le jan’a an nelouva aum jeh in, agilkel in alhalhop jeng tan ahi.
And Saul fell straightway his full length on the earth, and was sore afraid because of the words of Samuel; and there was no strength in him, for he had eaten no bread all the day nor all the night.
21 Numeinu chea agavet le, atijat val chu amudoh in, “Kapu, neilungset’in kenbon kahinkho phalngam’a neidoh ho kanop’a kabolpeh ngam le,
And the woman came to Saul, and saw that he was sore troubled, and said to him, Behold, thy bondmaid has hearkened to thy voice, and I have put my life in my hand, and have hearkened to thy words which thou spokest to me.
22 Tun nangman jong kasei bangin bollin, neh ding phabep kapeh ding nahin, nenlang natha kidodoh sah kit in,” ati.
And now, I pray thee, hearken thou also to the voice of thy bondmaid, and let me set a morsel of bread before thee; and eat, that thou mayest have strength when thou goest on thy way.
23 Ahinlah Saul in ima neh ding anom pon, Chule avaipote ho geiyin nehsah tei ding agouvin, akhon khon nan anomin tol’a konin ahung kithoudoh in jalkhun chung’a atousah tauvin ahi.
But he refused and said, I will not eat. Then his servants, and the woman also, compelled him, and he hearkened to their voice; and he arose from the earth and sat on the bed.
24 Hiche numeinu hin aina bongnou thaochet khat anei ahin, hichu agathat loiyin, changbong toh ameh nangjet in, cholsolouvin changlhah akangtan ahi.
And the woman had a fat calf in the house; and she hasted and killed it, and took flour, and kneaded it, and baked unleavened bread thereof;
25 Chuin changlhah le bongsa chu Saul le aloi teni chu athuh peh in ahile amahon anetauve. Aneh jou phat un hcihe jan chun amaho ahung kile kit tauve.
and she brought it near before Saul, and before his servants, and they ate. And they rose up and went away that night.
