< 2 Samuel 12 >

1 Hiti chun Nathan themgaopa chu Pakaiyin David komah asol tan ahi: Hichun Nathanin jong David koma hitin aga seiye, “Khopi sung khat’a hin pasal ni acheng lhonin, khatpa chu mihao ahin, khat jopa vang chu mivaicha ahi.
Then the LORD sent Nathan to David, and when he arrived, he said, “There were two men in a certain city, one rich and the other poor.
2 Hichun mihaopa hin kelngoihon tamtah le bonghon tampi aneiyin ahi.
The rich man had a great number of sheep and cattle,
3 Ahin mivaichapa vang chun imacha aneipoi, ahin aman alel lel a akichoh kelngoipi khat seh seh bou aneiye. Hijongle aman akelngoipi chu akivah vah-in achate toh phatechan avah in ahi; kelngoipi hin ama changlhah aneh ding an jong anejin, adon ding twi jong ama khon sunga konin adon ji'e; chutengle a-angsunga alum jin, achanu tobang bangin aumtan ahi.
but the poor man had nothing except one small ewe lamb that he had bought. He raised it, and it grew up with him and his children. It shared his food and drank from his cup; it slept in his arms and was like a daughter to him.
4 Hichelai hin kholjin mikhat mihaopa koma chun ahung lhung in ahileh, hiche kholjinpa thapeh ding chun mihaopan jong ama kelngoi hon lah a khattou thapeh ding jong a-ittan, chule ama bonghon lah a kona khattou thapeh ding jong a-it tai; ahin mivaichapa kelngoipi khat sheh anei chu aman in akoma hung kholjin pa ding chun atha peh tan ahi,” ati.
Now a traveler came to the rich man, who refrained from taking one of his own sheep or cattle to prepare for the traveler who had come to him. Instead, he took the poor man’s lamb and prepared it for his guest.”
5 Chutah chun David jong alung hangjah jengin hiche mihaopa douna chun Nathan themgao koma chun hitin aseitai, “Pakai hing jing mina kasei ahi, hitobanga kisa chonvalpa chu thi dinga kilom mong ahibouve!
David burned with anger against the man and said to Nathan: “As surely as the LORD lives, the man who did this deserves to die!
6 Chujongle aman voujang natna beihela hitobang thilpi hi abol jeh hin aman kelngoipi chu ajat li’a asah kit ding ahi,’ atitai.
Because he has done this thing and has shown no pity, he must pay for the lamb four times over.”
7 Chuin Nathan themgaopan David koma aseipai jengin, “Hichea kisei mihaopa hi nangma nahi, Pakai Israel Pathenin hitin aseiye, ‘Nang hi keiman Israel chate chunga leng chang dinga thao kanusa nahin, chule Saul thaneina a kon kanahuhdoh nahiye.
Then Nathan said to David, “You are that man! This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: ‘I anointed you king over Israel, and I delivered you from the hand of Saul.
8 Chujongle napupa Saul’in, ajiteu jouse chule Israel insung pumpi le Judah insung pumpi jong kapeh nahi; hicheng jong hi alhom behseh na laiya ahileh tamtah kapehbe ding nahi nalaiye.
I gave your master’s house to you and your master’s wives into your arms. I gave you the house of Israel and Judah, and if that was not enough, I would have given you even more.
9 Chuti ahileh epi dinga nangman Pakai thusei nanot thap a hitabang tijat umtah thil hi nabol hitam? Nangman Hittite mipa Uriah chu nadengin Ammon mite chemjamin nathat nin, chule ajinu jong naji din nakipui jeng theiye.
Why then have you despised the command of the LORD by doing evil in His sight? You put Uriah the Hittite to the sword and took his wife as your own, for you have slain him with the sword of the Ammonites.
10 Hijeh a chu tua hi nangma insunga kona jong chemjam lang jing jeng ding ahi. ajeh chu nangin keima nahsah mon neibolin, Hittite mipa Uriah jinu chu naji din nakipuitai,’ tin aseiye.
Now, therefore, the sword will never depart from your house, because you have despised Me and have taken the wife of Uriah the Hittite to be your own.’
11 Chuin Pakaiyin hitin aseiye, ajeh chu nangman nathil bol banga, keiman nangma insunga kona nadou ding thilse kahin kondoh sah ding ahi. chule namitmu changtah a najite jeng jong kalah peh a naheng nakom mite kapeh doh ding, chule amahon japi mitmu lai jenga jong najite chu aluppi dingu ahi.
This is what the LORD says: ‘I will raise up adversity against you from your own house. Before your very eyes I will take your wives and give them to another, and he will lie with them in broad daylight.
12 Ijeh inem itileh nangman nathil bol chu guhthima nabol ahin, keiman vang Israel chate pumpi mitmu dinga kabol ding ahi,’ tin aseiye.”
You have acted in secret, but I will do this thing in broad daylight before all Israel.’”
13 Chutah chun David in jong Nathan koma hitin aseiye, “Keima Pakai dounan kachonsetai,” atin ahileh; Nathan jong chun David koma aseipaiyin, “Pakaiyin nachonset angaidam tai. hijeh a chu hiche chonset jeh in nangma thi tapon nate.
Then David said to Nathan, “I have sinned against the LORD.” “The LORD has taken away your sin,” Nathan replied. “You will not die.
14 Hijongle nangin hiche thil hi nabol a Pakai chu nahsah mo tah a nabol a nataitom ahitan, hijeh a chu ahung peng ding nacha chu thitei tei ding ahi tai,” tin aseitai.
Nevertheless, because by this deed you have shown utter contempt for the word of the LORD, the son born to you will surely die.”
15 Hichun Nathan ainlama achijou chun. Pakaiyin Uriah jinu hin David chapa chu gotna apen ahileh naosen chu apet petin adammo pai tan ahi.
After Nathan had gone home, the LORD struck the child that Uriah’s wife had borne to David, and he became ill.
16 Hijeh chun David jong naosen adamna din Pakai henga atao tao tan ahi; David chun an angolin apotdoh in, jan khovah hel chun tollhanga alumin ahi.
David pleaded with God for the boy. He fasted and went into his house and spent the night lying in sackcloth on the ground.
17 Chuphat’in ainsung mi upa chengsen ajol jol jenguvin chule tollhanga alupnaa kona tho doh sah tei din agouve; ahinla David chu akithou doh deh pon, chule an jong aneh pi deh pouve.
The elders of his household stood beside him to help him up from the ground, but he was unwilling and would not eat anything with them.
18 Ahivangin nisagi lhin nin naosen chu athi tan ahi. Hichun naosen chu athitai’ tia David koma sei peh ding asohte chu akicha tauve; ajeh chu amaho geldola, vetan, naosen ahinlaiya bon eiho thusei angai louva ahileh, tua naosen athitai, tia iti iseidoh ngam diu ham? Amale ama kithalo mai ding ahi,” tia angaitou ahiye.
On the seventh day the child died. But David’s servants were afraid to tell him that the child was dead, for they said, “Look, while the child was alive, we spoke to him, and he would not listen to us. So how can we tell him the child is dead? He may even harm himself.”
19 Ahin David chun asohte chu akhoisa cheh tauve ti ahetdoh phat’in naosen chu athi ahitai tin David’in ahedoh pai paitan ahi; hijeh chun David chun asohte chu adong in, “Naosen chu athia hitam?” atileh amahon jong, “Athitai,’ atiuve.
When David saw that his servants were whispering to one another, he perceived that the child was dead. So he asked his servants, “Is the child dead?” “He is dead,” they replied.
20 Chuphat’in David jong tol'a alupna a konin ahung thou dohin akisil ngim in, thao akinun, aponsil akhel’in, Pakai houin sunga avah lut’in chibai agaboh-e; chujouvin David chu ama inlama ahung in an athum in amahon jong ankong aluipeh-uva ahileh, an anetan ahi.
Then David got up from the ground, washed and anointed himself, changed his clothes, and went into the house of the LORD and worshiped. Then he went to his own house, and at his request they set food before him, and he ate.
21 Hichun asohten ajah a aseiyuve, “Ipibola hitia hi naum ham? naosen ahai hai pet in an nangol in nakap kap jengin, naosen athi tah bah phat in nathou doh in an nane jenge,’ atiuve.
“What is this you have done?” his servants asked. “While the child was alive, you fasted and wept, but when he died, you got up and ate.”
22 Hichun David in jong hitin adonbut’e, “Naosen ahinpet a chu an kangola kaka ka ahin, “Kon ija ahet thei ham, ajo le Pakaiyin eilungset a naosen hi ahin hin sah thei ahi?” tia keiman kagel jeh ahi.
David answered, “While the child was alive, I fasted and wept, for I said, ‘Who knows? The LORD may be gracious to me and let him live.’
23 Ahin tun vang ama athia ahitan ibola an kangol ngol nah lai ding ham? ken ama chu kahinsah theiya nabol’uham? keibou ama koma nikhat le kache ding ahin, ama chu kahenga hung kile kit louhel ding ahitai,” ati.
But now that he is dead, why should I fast? Can I bring him back again? I will go to him, but he will not return to me.”
24 Hichun David’in ajinu Bathsheba alhem lung mongin akoma aga lut kit’in aluppin ahileh amanun nao ahinvop in chapa khat ahing kit’e; Chule David in amin Solomon asah in ahi. Pakaiyin amahi angailui.
Then David comforted his wife Bathsheba, and he went to her and lay with her. So she gave birth to a son, and they named him Solomon. Now the LORD loved the child
25 Hijeh chun Nathan themgaopa henga ahin hetsah in ahileh Nathanin Pakai thusei dungjuiyin ama chu amin Jedidiah tinjong aminvo kit’e, (hichu Pakaiyin angailut tina ahi).
and sent word through Nathan the prophet to name him Jedidiah because the LORD loved him.
26 Chuin Joab chun Ammon mite khopi lanlung Rabbah chu adel khumin gal’in akisat pin ahileh ajouvin leng khopi chu alatan ahi.
Meanwhile, Joab fought against Rabbah of the Ammonites and captured the royal fortress.
27 Chuin Joab chun David koma sottolle miho asol’in agasei sah tai, “Keiman Rabbah kaga kisat pin, twiphai khopi chu kajoutai tin.
Then Joab sent messengers to David to say, “I have fought against Rabbah and have captured the water supply of the city.
28 Hijeh chun tun mipi amoh cheng khom tup’in lang khopi dounan ngahmun hung sem tan, chule akhopi jong hung toupha jengin, achuti louva ahileh keiman akhopi hi kalah a keima min kaputsah ding ahi tai,” ati.
Now, therefore, assemble the rest of the troops, lay siege to the city, and capture it. Otherwise I will capture the city, and it will be named after me.”
29 Hijeh chun David in mipi abonchan akhom soh keiyin Rabbah khopi lama achen, chule akhopi dou nan gal abol’in akisat pin ahileh ajouvin akhopi chu alatan ahi.
So David assembled all the troops and went to Rabbah; and he fought against it and captured it.
30 Chule alengpau lallukhuh chu David in aluchanga konin alahdoh peh in chule amalu changah akikoi tan ahi. alallukhuh chu sana le songman tam a kisem chule agih dan chu pound somsagi le nga ahi. chujongle asunga chun song mantam tah akikoiyin. Chujongleh David chun Rabbah khopia thil thang tamtah ahin chom doh in ahi.
Then he took the crown from the head of their king. It weighed a talent of gold and was set with precious stones, and it was placed on David’s head. And David took a great amount of plunder from the city.
31 Chujongle akhopi sunga cheng mipi jouse chu gal hing-in akaiyin, chule thing-at dingle tuphul kheng dingle, heicha kheng dingin agoiyin, chule cheh dengin apansah tai. Hitichun David chun hitobanga hi Ammon mite khopi jouse anabol ahi; chujouvin David le mipi chu abonchauvin Jerusalema ahung kile kit tauvin ahi.
David brought out the people who were there and put them to work with saws, iron picks, and axes, and he made them work at the brick kilns. He did the same to all the Ammonite cities. Then David and all his troops returned to Jerusalem.
