2 Samuel 5

1 Chuin Israel phungmi jouse Hebron munna David kom achiu vin ahengah hitin aseijui, “keihohi nangma tahsa le thisan jeng kahiuve.

Then came all the tribes of Israel to David unto Hebron, and spoke, saying: 'Behold, we are thy bone and thy flesh.

2 Achisa phatlai a Saul kaleng u ahilai jeng injong, nangma bou nahi Israel sepai te analamkai chu. Chule Pakaiyin nahengah aseiyin, ‘nangma hi kami Israel te chingpa nahi ding ahi. nangma hi Israel’s te lamkai ding nahi.”’ Atiuve.

In times past, when Saul was king over us, it was thou that didst lead out and bring in Israel; and the LORD said to thee: Thou shalt feed My people Israel, and thou shalt be prince over Israel.'

3 Hijeh chun Hebron munnah ahitin ahi, leng David in Pakai masang le Israel upa ho jouse masang ngah kitep nakhat asem tan ahi. chuin amahon Israel mite chunga leng din thao anu taovin ahi.

So all the elders of Israel came to the king to Hebron; and king David made a covenant with them in Hebron before the LORD; and they anointed David king over Israel.

4 David in lengvai ahinpoh chun atahsa kum kum somthum alhing tan ahi, chule kum somli sung lengvai anapon ahi.

David was thirty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned forty years.

In Hebron he reigned over Judah seven years and six months; and in Jerusalem he reigned thirty and three years over all Israel and Judah.

And the king and his men went to Jerusalem against the Jebusites, the inhabitants of the land, who spoke unto David, saying: 'Except thou take away the blind and the lame, thou shalt not come in hither'; thinking: 'David cannot come in hither.'

7 Ahilah David in khopi dettah Zion khopi chu alatan ahi, tunin hiche mun chu David khopi akiti tai.

Nevertheless David took the stronghold of Zion; the same is the city of David.

8 Chuchi agabulu nikhou chun David in a sepai ho hengah hitin aseiye, “keiman Jebusite mi mitcho hole elbai ho chu kavet nompoi. Koi hileh agabulu ding hochu twilam apet khopi sung lut diu ahi.” hichu thu kisei abul ahi, “mitcho hole elbai ho chu insung lut man lou Meithei u ahi.” ati.

And David said on that day: 'Whosoever smiteth the Jebusites, and getteth up to the gutter, and taketh away the lame and the blind, that are hated of David's soul —.' Wherefore they say: 'There are the blind and the lame; he cannot come into the house.'

9 Hitichun David in akulpiu chu a inmun in asemin chule David khopi asah tan ahi. chule David in khopi sung chu achung langah ahinpan in aasung lang gei in akeh len ben ahi.

And David dwelt in the stronghold, and called it the city of David. And David built round about from Millo and inward.

10 Hitichun David jong ahung thahat cheh cheh jengin ahi, ajeh chu Pakai Van Pathen sepai ten ama aumpi jeh u ahi.

And David waxed greater and greater; for the LORD, the God of hosts, was with him.

11 Chuin Tyre gamma lengpa Hiram in David hengah sottol le hochu Cedar thingho, thingthem bolho, song insathem ho chutoh asol than amahon David leng inpi ashah pih taovin ahi.

And Hiram king of Tyre sent messengers to David, and cedar-trees, and carpenters, and masons; and they built David a house.

12 Hichun David in Pakaiyin Israel mite jouse chunga leng dia atun nale ami Israel te khohsah najalla aleng gam phatthei aboh chu ahin geldoh tan ahi.

And David perceived that the LORD had established him king over Israel, and that He had exalted his kingdom for His people Israel's sake.

13 Hebron akon Jerusalem akichon doh jou chun, David in ajiding le thaikem ding akipui ben, chule amahon chapa le chanu ahinbe pih un ahi.

And David took him more concubines and wives out of Jerusalem, after he was come from Hebron; and there were yet sons and daughters born to David.

14 Hiche hohi David chapate Jerusalem a peng ho min ahi: Shammua, Shabab, Nathan, Solomon,

And these are the names of those that were born unto him in Jerusalem: Shammua, and Shobab, and Nathan, and Solomon;

And when the Philistines heard that David was anointed king over Israel, all the Philistines went up to seek David; and David heard of it, and went down to the hold.

18 Chuin Philistine tejong ahung lhung un chule Rephaim phaicham lam geiyin akithe thang taovin ahi.

Now the Philistines had come and spread themselves in the valley of Rephaim.

19 Hichun David in Pakai adongin, “keima kapotdoh a hiche Philistine mite hi kaga kisatpi ding ham? Nangman amaho chunga galjona neipih ding ham?” ati. Chuin Pakaiyin David ahin donbut in, “henge, chijengin. Keiman amaho khu nangma khut a kapeh tei ding ahi.” atitai.

And David inquired of the LORD, saying: 'Shall I go up against the Philistines? wilt Thou deliver them into my hand?' And the LORD said unto David: 'Go up; for I will certainly deliver the Philistines into thy hand.'

20 Chuin David in Baal – perazim lam ajonin hiche mun ah chun Philistine te ajou tan ahi. chuin David in hitin aseiye, Pakai bola ahi! aman kamelma jouse twi kithe thang bangin athe thang tan ahi. hijeh chun aman chi mun chu Baal – perazim asah tan ahi. (hichu Pakaiyin athethang tina ahi).

And David came to Baal-perazim, and David smote them there; and he said: 'The LORD hath broken mine enemies before me, like the breach of waters.' Therefore the name of that place was called Baal-perazim.

21 Philistines miten hiche mun ah chun amilimdoi houchu adalhao vin, chule David le asepai ten amaho chu ala taovin ahi.

And they left their images there, and David and his men took them away.

22 Chuin phat chomkhat jouvin Philistines mite chu akile kit un, chule Rephaim phaicham geijin aga kithe thang kit un ahi.

And the Philistines came up yet again, and spread themselves in the valley of Rephaim.

23 Chule David in epi kabol ding ham tin Pakai chu adong kit in ahileh. Pakaiyin hitin ahin donbut nin, jangkei a nachiuva naga bulu tah lou diu ahi, hinlah anung lam uva kon naumkol diu chuteng poplar thing kom akon nabulu diu ahi ati.

And when David inquired of the LORD, He said: 'Thou shalt not go up; make a circuit behind them, and come upon them over against the mulberry-trees.

24 Chule nanghon poplar thing chung lamma mikijot kengto gin najah teng ule kiging sadem a naum diu ahi! hichu Philistine mite chunga galjona nanei thei nadiuva Pakaiyin nachungvum uva nalhonpi nao melchih na hiding ahi.

And it shall be, when thou hearest the sound of marching in the tops of the mulberry-trees, that then thou shalt bestir thyself; for then is the LORD gone out before thee to smite the host of the Philistines.'

25 Hijeh chun David injong Pakaiyin athupeh bang chun abollin, Philistines mite jouse chu Gibeon apet Gezer changei in athat gam tan ahi.

And David did so, as the LORD commanded him, and smote the Philistines from Geba until thou come to Gezer.
