< 2 Samuel 4 >
1 Chuin Saul’s chapa Ishbosheth in Hebron munna Abner’s athi chung chang ajah chun ahansan najouse abei tan chule Israel pumpi jong kichat nan adim taovin ahi.
And when Saul's son heard that Abner had died in Hebron, his hands became enfeebled, and all the Israelites were troubled.
2 Tun Ishbosheth’s in sepai galamkai Rimmon chateni Baanah le Recab chu anei in, amani chu Benjamin phungmi Beeroth a cheng ahilhon ne. chule tun Beeroth khopi chu Benjamin’s te gamsung ahitan ahi.
And Saul's son had two men who were captains of bands; the name of the one was Ba'anah, and the name of the other Rechab, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, of the children of Benjamin: (for Beeroth also was reckoned to Benjamin:
3 Ajeh chu Beeroth mimong mong hochu Gittaim ah anajam lutnun, tunigeijin khopem mi bong ngin aching taove.
And the Beerothites had fled to Gittayim, and remained sojourners there until this day.)
4 (Chuin Saul’s chapa Jonathan in chapa khat anei in amin Mephibosheth akitie, chule amahi aneova pet elbai ahi. Jezreel akonna Saul le Jonathan gal munnah atitai tithu ahung chun ama kum nga bou ahinalai in ahi. hitabong thusoh chapangpa jenlenun ajah doh phat in ama chu aman in ajampi tan ahi. hinlah amanu akinovar jeh in chapangpa chu akheh shah tan ahileh amachu akeng ahung bai tan ahi).
And Jonathan, Saul's son, had a son that was lame on both feet. He was five years old when the tidings came of Saul and Jonathan from Yizre'el, and his nurse took him up and fled: and it came to pass, in her haste to flee, that he fell, and was rendered lame. And his name was Mephibosheth.
5 Nikhat chu Beeroth akon Rimmon chapateni Recab le Baanath chu Ishbosheth’s in'ah sun in agachi lhon in ahileh amapa chun sun kichol anabol in ahi.
And the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, Rechab and Ba'anah, went, and came at the heat of the day to the house of Ish-bosheth, who was just lying in bed as usual at noon.
6 Chuin kotngah a pangnun, chang anasep in ahileh aimut sophat in ana emulhatan ahi. hijeh chun Recab le Baanah jong chun amanu chu akalchuh lhonin achipei lhon tai.
And they came thither into the interior of the house, as buyers of wheat; and they smote him under the fifth rib: and Rechab and Ba'anah his brother escaped.
7 Insung alut lhonin ahileh Ishbosheth alupna chunga analup amulhon tan ahi. hichun anailut lhonin avolih lhonin alol atanpih lhon tan ahi. chujou vin alu akichoi lhonin Jordan phaicham geijin jankhovah hellin ajam lhon tan ahi.
Namely, they came into the house, while he was lying on his bed in his sleeping-chamber, and they smote him, and slew him, and cut off his head, and took his head, and went by the way of the plain all the night.
8 Chuin Hebron alhun lhonin Ishbosheth’s lu chu David api lhon tan ahi. chuin lengpa hengah apeng jah jeng lhonin, “ven!” hichehi nagalmi nangma that dia kigo Saul chapa Ishbosheth luchang ahi. tunin Pathenin ka pakai lengpa dingin Saul le a insungmite chungah phu alatan ahi.
And they brought the head of Ish-bosheth unto David to Hebron, and they said to the king, Behold, here is the head of Ish-bosheth the son of Saul thy enemy, who sought thy life: and the Lord hath granted to my lord the king vengeance this day on Saul, and on his seed.
9 Ahin David in Recab le Baanah jaah hitin aseiyin, ka Pathen, kagalmite jouse a kon eihuhdoh pa minna kasei ahi.
But David answered Rechab and Ba'anah his brother, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, and said unto them, As the Lord liveth, who hath redeemed my soul out of all adversity,
10 Khatvei mikhat in Saul athitai tin kakommah ahung seiye, amapachun keimadia thupha hinpo dan a kigel hite. Hinlah keiman ama chu kapui in Ziklag munnah kagathat tan ahi. hichu amadia ahin thupoh man a kapeh ahi.
When one told me, saying, Behold, Saul is dead, and he was in his own eyes as though he brought good tidings, I took hold of him, and slew him in Ziklag, who [thought] that I should give him a reward for his tidings:
11 Akhuti leh keiman kho hepha louva ainsunga alupna a lumpa that migilou hochu echangeija kipaman kapih ding hitam? keiman ama thisan phuhi kalah da a leiset chunga jong kasuh mang da lhon ding ham? ati.
How much more, when wicked men have slain a righteous man in his own house upon his bed? and now, behold, I will require his blood of your hand, and I will remove you away from the earth.
12 Chuin David in amani that din agollhang hochu thupeh anei in, chule amahon jong abol taovin ahi. chuin amahon akhut, akeng atenpih un atahsa chu Hebron twikul kommah akhai taovin ahi. chujou vin Ishbosheth’s lubuh chu achoi un Hebron muna Abner’s lhan ah chun avui tao vin ahi.
And David gave the command to the young men, and they slew them, and cut off their hands and their feet, and hanged them up by the pool in Hebron. But the head of Ish-bosheth they took, and buried it in the sepulchre of Abner in Hebron.
