< 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 had come to him, he said to him: “Two men were in one city: one wealthy, and the other poor.
2 Hichun mihaopa hin kelngoihon tamtah le bonghon tampi aneiyin ahi.
The wealthy man had very many sheep and oxen.
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 at all, except one little sheep, which he had bought and nourished. And she had grown up before him, together with his children, eating from his bread, and drinking from his cup, and sleeping in his bosom. And she 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.
But when a certain traveler had come to the wealthy man, neglecting to take from his own sheep and oxen, so that he might present a feast for that traveler, who had come to him, he took the sheep of the poor man, and he prepared a meal for the man who had come to him.”
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!
Then David’s indignation was enraged exceedingly against that man, and he said to Nathan: “As the Lord lives, the man who has done this is a son of death.
6 Chujongle aman voujang natna beihela hitobang thilpi hi abol jeh hin aman kelngoipi chu ajat li’a asah kit ding ahi,’ atitai.
He shall restore the sheep fourfold, because he did this word, and he did not take pity.”
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.
But Nathan said to David: “You are that man. Thus says the Lord, the God of Israel: ‘I anointed you as king over Israel, and I rescued 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.
And I gave the house of your lord to you, and the wives of your lord into your bosom. And I gave the house of Israel and of Judah to you. And as if these things were small, I shall add much greater things to you.
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.
Therefore, why have you despised the word of the Lord, so that you did evil in my sight? You have struck down Uriah the Hittite with the sword. And you have taken his wife as a wife for yourself. And you have put him to death with the sword of the sons of Ammon.
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.
For this reason, the sword shall not withdraw from your house, even perpetually, because you have despised me, and you have taken the wife of Uriah the Hittite, so that she may be your wife.’
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.
And so, thus says the Lord: ‘Behold, I will raise up over you an evil from your own house. And I will take your wives away before your eyes, and I will give them to your neighbor. And he will sleep with your wives in the sight of this sun.
12 Ijeh inem itileh nangman nathil bol chu guhthima nabol ahin, keiman vang Israel chate pumpi mitmu dinga kabol ding ahi,’ tin aseiye.”
For you acted secretly. But I will do this word in the sight of all of Israel, and in the sight of the sun.’”
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.
And David said to Nathan, “I have sinned against the Lord.” And Nathan said to David: “The Lord has also taken away your sin. You shall 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.
Yet truly, because you have given occasion to the enemies of the Lord to blaspheme, because of this word, the son who was born to you: dying he shall 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.
And Nathan returned to his own house. And the Lord struck the little one, whom the wife of Uriah had borne to David, and he was despaired of.
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.
And David begged the Lord on behalf of the little one. And David fasted strictly, and entering alone, he lay upon 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.
Then the elders of his house came, urging him to rise up from the ground. And he was not willing, nor would he eat a meal 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.
Then, on the seventh day, it happened that the infant died. And the servants of David were afraid to report to him that the little one had died. For they said: “Behold, when the child was still alive, we were speaking to him, but he would not listen to our voice. How much more will he afflict himself, if we tell him that the boy is dead?”
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.
But when David had seen his servants whispering, he realized that the infant had died. And he said to his servants, “Is the child dead?” And they responded to him, “He is dead.”
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.
Therefore, David rose up from the ground. And he washed and anointed himself. And when he had changed his clothing, he entered the house of the Lord, and he worshiped. Then he went to his own house, and he asked them to place bread 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.
But his servants said to him: “What is this word that you have done? You fasted and were weeping, on behalf of the infant, while he was still alive. But when the boy was dead, you arose and ate bread.”
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.
And he said: “While he was yet alive, I fasted and wept on behalf of the infant. For I said: Who knows if the Lord may perhaps give him to me, and let the infant 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? Would I be able to bring him back anymore? Instead, I will go to him. Yet truly, 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.
And David consoled his wife Bathsheba. And entering to her, he slept with her. And she bore a son, and he called his name Solomon, and the Lord loved him.
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 he sent, by the hand of Nathan the prophet, and he called his name, Beloved of the Lord, 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.
And then Joab fought against Rabbah of the sons of Ammon, and he fought outside the royal city.
27 Chuin Joab chun David koma sottolle miho asol’in agasei sah tai, “Keiman Rabbah kaga kisat pin, twiphai khopi chu kajoutai tin.
And Joab sent messengers to David, saying: “I have struggled against Rabbah, and so the City of Waters will soon be seized.
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, gather the remaining portion of the people together, and besiege the city and take it. Otherwise, when the city will have been laid waste by me, the victory will be ascribed to my name.”
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.
And so David gathered together all the people, and he set out against Rabbah. And after he had fought, he seized 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.
And he took the crown of their king from his head. The weight of it was a talent of gold, having the most precious gems. And it was placed upon the head of David. Moreover, he carried away the spoils of the city, which were very many.
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.
Also, bringing forth its people, he sawed them, and he drove over them with iron wagons, and he divided them with knives, and he dragged them through brick kilns. So he did to all the citizens of the sons of Ammon. And David returned, with the entire army, to Jerusalem.
