1 Saul thi jouvin ahitin ahi, David chun Amalek mite chunga galjona aneijou vin ahung kinung len Ziklag munnah nini sung aumden in ahi.
After the death of Saul, when David had returned from the slaughter of the Amalekites, and David had stayed two days in Ziklag,
2 Anithum nin mikhat Saul’s ngahmun a konin von tel dehduh le aluchunga leiset nat pum in lunghem vetsahnan a hungin, David angsungah jana neitah in abohkhup tan ahi.
on the third day, behold, a man came out of the camp from Saul, with his clothes torn and earth on his head. When he came to David, he fell to the earth and showed respect.
3 Chuin David in adong in, “hoiya kon hung nahim”? atileh amapan adonbut in, “Israel te ngahmun a kon hung jamdoh kahi” ati.
David said to him, “Where do you come from?” He said to him, “I have escaped out of the camp of Israel.”
4 Chuin David in adongin, “Epiti hytam?” “Gal umchan thu neiseipih in” ati, chuin aman adonbut in, “kasepai te jouseu galmun akon ajam gam uvin, mitampin thina atoh un, chule Saul le achapa Jonathan jong athi lhon tai ati.”
David said to him, “How did it go? Please tell me.” He answered, “The people have fled from the battle, and many of the people also have fallen and are dead. Saul and Jonathan his son are dead also.”
5 Chuin David in Gollhangpa ja ah, “Eti Saul le Jonathan athi taiti nahet ham?” ati.
David said to the young man who told him, “How do you know that Saul and Jonathan his son are dead?”
6 chuin mipan adonbut in, keima Gilboa molchungah kaga umkhan ahileh, hi ah chun Saul in a tengcha chu anaop phan chuleh agalmite sakol kangtalai holeh sakol them hon ahin delphah kon chao chu ahitai.
The young man who told him said, “As I happened by chance on Mount Gilboa, behold, Saul was leaning on his spear; and behold, the chariots and the horsemen followed close behind him.
7 Chuin ama ahung kiheiyin keima eimu phat in amakom adin eikoutai. Chuin keiman kadong ngin, Eti kaki thopi ding ham Katie.
When he looked behind him, he saw me and called to me. I answered, ‘Here I am.’
8 Hichun aman eidonbut in, nang koi nahim eiti? Chuin keiman kaseipih in, keima Amalek mi kahi Katie.
He said to me, ‘Who are you?’ I answered him, ‘I am an Amalekite.’
9 Hichun ama kahengah ataovin, hung inlang neihung that tan, ajeh chu keiman kanat nahi kathoh jou tapon hijeh chun kathinom tai, ati.
He said to me, ‘Please stand beside me, and kill me, for anguish has taken hold of me because my life lingers in me.’
10 “Hijeh chun keiman ama chu kathat tai,” tin Amalek mipa chun David komah aseitai, ajeh chu keiman kahet ahitai ama ahinjou tah lou ding chu. Hiti chun a Lallukhuh leh abanbul tom naho kahin lan nakom ah kahin lhut e ka Pakai, ati.
So I stood beside him and killed him, because I was sure that he could not live after he had fallen. I took the crown that was on his head and the bracelet that was on his arm, and have brought them here to my lord.”
11 Hitabong thusoh chu David leh amiten ajah doh phat un apon u abot eh un alung genthei lheh taovin ahi.
Then David took hold on his clothes and tore them; and all the men who were with him did likewise.
12 Hitichun amahon sun nilhum in Saul chule achapa Jonathan ding, Pakai sepai holeh Israel nam mite adin an angolun, akap un, pul adou un alunghem un ahi, ajeh chu hiche nikho a hi amaho chemjam a thisoh ahiuve.
They mourned, wept, and fasted until evening for Saul and for Jonathan his son, and for the people of the LORD, and for the house of Israel, because they had fallen by the sword.
13 Hichun David in thu hinpo gollhang pa komah chun aseitan, “hoiya kon hung nahim ati?” chuin aman adonbut in, keima gamdang, jatdang Amalek mi, nagam uva khosa kahi, ati.
David said to the young man who told him, “Where are you from?” He answered, “I am the son of a foreigner, an Amalekite.”
14 Chuin David in adongin, “Epi tidan a nangman Pakai thaonu mikhat chu thading kichat na nanei lou hel ham? Atie.
David said to him, “Why were you not afraid to stretch out your hand to destroy the LORD’s anointed?”
15 Chuin David in amiho khat pen komah chun asei in, “that in!” ati, hichun mipan Amalek mipa chu achemjam in adot in athat tan ahi.
David called one of the young men and said, “Go near, and cut him down!” He struck him so that he died.
16 Chujou vin David in aseiyin, “Nang le nang themmo kichan nahi,” “ajeh chu nangman nakam tah a Pakai thaonu pachu kathat tai nati.”
David said to him, “Your blood be on your head, for your mouth has testified against you, saying, ‘I have slain the LORD’s anointed.’”
17 Hitichun David in Saul le Jonathan din ka-la asemin,
David lamented with this lamentation over Saul and over Jonathan his son
18 Chuleh hichehi Judah te jong hilding ahitin thupeh anei in ahi. hiche la hi thalpi la tin akihen chuleh hichehi Jashar te lekhabu a kijih lut ahi.
(and he commanded them to teach the children of Judah the song of the bow; behold, it is written in the book of Jashar):
19 Vo Israel naloupi nao le nakipa nao chu molsang chungah akithat tai! I ati leh galhang mihat hochu lhugam u hitam!
“Your glory, Israel, was slain on your high places! How the mighty have fallen!
20 Gath muna athu hohi seidoh hih un, Ashkelon lamlen dungah jong phongdoh hih un, achuti louva ahileh Philistines Chanute kipah untin, chule cheptan louho jong galjou bangnga nuidiu ahi.
Do not tell it in Gath. Do not publish it in the streets of Ashkelon, lest the daughters of the Philistines rejoice, lest the daughters of the uncircumcised triumph.
21 O nang Gilboa molsang, nachungah daitwi lhah da hen lang, gojong juhda hen, chule loujao va lou hon jong amuchiga hinsepdoh dahen. Ajeh chu mihatpa lumdal chu suhboh in aum tan; Saul lumdal chu thaotwi nulouva um ahitai.
You mountains of Gilboa, let there be no dew or rain on you, and no fields of offerings; for there the shield of the mighty was defiled and cast away, the shield of Saul was not anointed with oil.
22 Jonathan kineosah chu nasatah ahin, chule Saul chemjam chun na loupi tah atongdoh in ahi. amahon agalmiteu thisan asou vin chule galhat, mi hangsan ho tahsa asun in ahi.
From the blood of the slain, from the fat of the mighty, Jonathan’s bow did not turn back. Saul’s sword did not return empty.
23 Iti ngailut le lungset um hitam Saul le Jonathan hi! Ahinlai sung lhon leh athigei lhon in aumkhom jing lhon in ahi. amanihi Muvanlai sanga gang joleh keipi bahkai sanga jong hatjo ahilhon in ahi.
Saul and Jonathan were lovely and pleasant in their lives. In their death, they were not divided. They were swifter than eagles. They were stronger than lions.
24 Vo Israel Chanute, Saul a dingin kap un, ajeh chu amahi ponsanthip deium mantamtah a nachun pao le sana a najem pao chu ahi.
You daughters of Israel, weep over Saul, who clothed you delicately in scarlet, who put ornaments of gold on your clothing.
25 Iti galhat miho galmuna lhugam u hitam! munsang chungah Jonathan jong athisan akijam tai.
How the mighty have fallen in the middle of the battle! Jonathan was slain on your high places.
26 Jonathan kasopipa, nangjeh in kakap kap jeng e! ichan a kangailut nahi hitam! chule nangman neingailut nahi athuh lheh in, numei ngailut nasangin athuh jon ahi!
I am distressed for you, my brother Jonathan. You have been very pleasant to me. Your love to me was wonderful, surpassing the love of women.
27 Iti mihat ho lhugam a! galmanchah ho mangsoh a, amaho athia kijam chap jeng hitam? ati.
How the mighty have fallen, and the weapons of war have perished!”
