1 Siangpahrang 1
1 Siangpahrang Devit teh a matawng poung toe, hni a kâkhu hai a phubet hoeh toe.
Now King David was old and far on in years; and though they put covers over him, his body was cold.
2 Hatdawkvah, a sannunaw ni ahni koevah, siangpahrang bawipa nang hanelah tanglakacuem buet touh ka tawng awh vai. Siangpahrang e a teng ao vaiteh, khenyawn naseh. Siangpahrang bawipa a phubet thai nahanelah a lungtabue dawk i sak han telah ati awh.
So his servants said to him, Let search be made for a young virgin for my lord the king, to take care of him and be waiting on him; and you may take her in your arms, and so my lord the king will be warm.
3 Hahoi, Isarel ram pueng dawk tangla a meikahawi a tawng awh teh, Shunam tami Abishag a hmu awh teh, siangpahrang koevah a thokhai awh.
So after searching through all the land of Israel for a fair young girl, they saw Abishag the Shunammite, and took her to the king.
4 Hote tangla teh a meihawipoung teh siangpahrang hah kahawicalah a khetyawt teh, a thawnaw a tawk pouh. Hatei, siangpahrang ni ipkhai hoeh.
Now she was very beautiful; and she took care of the king, waiting on him at all times; but the king had no connection with her.
5 Hatnavah, Haggith capa Adonijah ni a mahoima a kârasang teh siangpahrang ka tawk han telah rangleng hoi marangransanaw hoi tami 50 touh a hmalah yawng sak hanelah a kâcai.
Then Adonijah, the son of Haggith, lifting himself up in pride, said, I will become king; and he made ready his carriages of war and his horsemen, with fifty runners to go before him.
6 A na pa ni nâtuek hai bangkongmaw het patet lae hno na sak telah yue boihoeh. Ahni teh a meikahawi poung e tami lah ao teh, a manu ni Absalom hnukkhu, a khe e doeh.
Now all his life his father had never gone against him or said to him, Why have you done so? and he was a very good-looking man, and younger than Absalom.
7 Zeruiah capa Joab hoi vaihma Abiathar hah lawk a kâpankhai teh, ahnimouh roi hai Adonijah koelah a kambawng roi.
And he had talk with Joab, the son of Zeruiah, and with Abiathar the priest; and they were on his side and gave him their support.
8 Hatei, vaihma Zadok hoi Jehoiada capa Benaiah hoi, profet Nathan, Shimei, Rei hoi Devit koe e athakaawme taminaw teh, Adonijah koelah kambawng awh van hoeh.
But Zadok the priest, and Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, and Nathan the prophet and Shimei and Rei, and David's men of war did not take the side of Adonijah.
9 Hahoi Adonijah ni tu hoi maitotan kathâw poung e hah Zoheleth lungsong koevah a thei. Hothateh, Enrogel teng vah kaawm e doeh. Siangpahrang capa, hmaunawnghanaw abuemlahoi Judah ram e siangpahrang e sannaw abuemlah a kaw.
Then Adonijah put to death sheep and oxen and fat beasts by the stone of Zoheleth, by En-rogel; and he sent for all his brothers, the king's sons, and all the men of Judah, the king's servants, to come to him:
10 Hatei, profet Nathan hoi athakaawme taminaw hoi a nawngha Solomon teh coun van hoeh.
But he did not send for Nathan the prophet and Benaiah and the other men of war and Solomon his brother.
11 Hatnavah, Nathan ni Solomon e manu Bathsheba koevah, siangpahrang capa Adonijah hah maimae bawipa Devit ni panuek laipalah siangpahrang lah a kârasang toe tie hah na panuek hoeh maw.
Then Nathan said to Bath-sheba, the mother of Solomon, Has it not come to your ears that Adonijah, the son of Haggith, has made himself king without the knowledge of David our lord?
12 Tho nateh, na hringnae hoi na capa Solomon e hringnae rungngang thai nahanelah, ratoumnae lahoi pouknae na poe vai.
So now, let me make a suggestion, so that you may keep your life safe and the life of your son Solomon.
13 Siangpahrang Devit koevah karanglah kâen nateh, ahni koevah oe siangpahrang ka bawipa, na sannu koevah na capa Solomon heh kai hnuk vah siangpahrang lah ao roeroe han, ahni teh kaie bawitungkhung dawk a tahung han telah lawk na kam toe nahoehmaw. Bangkongmaw Adonijah ni siangpahrang khuet a tawk han vaw telah dei pouh.
Come now, go to King David and say to him, Did you not, O my lord, take an oath to me, your servant, saying, Truly Solomon your son will be king after me, seated on the seat of my kingdom? why then is Adonijah acting as king?
14 Khenhaw! siangpahrang hoi na kâpatawn roi lahun nah kai hai ka tho van vaiteh, na dei e dawk na kabawp van han telah atipouh.
And while you are still talking there with the king, see, I will come in after you and say that your story is true.
15 Hahoi teh, Bathsheba teh siangpahrang e imthung a kâen. Siangpahrang teh a matawng poung toung dawkvah, Shunam tami Abishag ni thaw a tawk pouh.
Then Bath-sheba went into the king's room; now the king was very old, and Abishag the Shunammite was waiting on him.
16 Bathsheba ni siangpahrang koe tabo laihoi kut a man teh, siangpahrang ni bangmaw na panki telah atipouh.
And Bath-sheba went down on her face on the earth before the king giving him honour. And he said, What is your desire?
17 Hahoi ahni ni ka bawipa, na BAWIPA Cathut min lahoi na sannu koe, na capa Solomon heh kai hnuk vah siangpahrang lah ao mingming vaiteh, ahni ni ka bawitungkhung dawk a tahung han telah lawk na kam.
And she said to him, My lord, you took an oath by the Lord your God and gave your word to your servant, saying, Truly, Solomon your son will be king after me, seated on the seat of my kingdom.
18 Khenhaw! atuvah, Adonijah teh, siangpahrang lah ao toe. Siangpahrang ka bawipa nang ni hote kongnaw hah na panuek hoeh.
And now, see, Adonijah has made himself king without my lord's knowledge;
19 Kathâw e maitotan, saringnaw hoi tunaw a thei awh teh, siangpahrang capanaw abuemlah, vaihma Abiathar hoi ransanaw kaukkung Joab hah a coun awh. Hatei, na san Solomon teh coun awh hoeh.
And has put to death oxen and fat beasts and sheep in great numbers, and has sent for all the sons of the king, and Abiathar the priest, and Joab, the captain of the army; but he has not sent for Solomon your servant.
20 Oe siangpahrang ka bawipa atuvah, Isarelnaw ni siangpahrang ka bawipa e bawitungkhung dawk, ahni hnukkhu apimaw ka tahung han tie na dei hane ring laihoi sut a pawp awh.
And now, my lord the king, the eyes of all Israel are on you, waiting for you to say who is to take the place of my lord the king after him.
21 Nahoeh pawiteh, hettelah han doeh. Siangpahrang ka bawipa heh mintoenaw koe a kâhat van toteh, kai hoi ka capa Solomon teh hnoun e lah doeh kaawm roi titoe telah atipouh.
For as things are, it will come about, when my lord the king is sleeping with his fathers, that I and Solomon my son will be made outlaws.
22 Khenhaw! hottelah siangpahrang koe a dei pouh lahun nah, profet Nathan hai a kâen van
And while she was still talking with the king, Nathan the prophet came in.
23 Khenhaw! profet Nathan a tho telah siangpahrang koe a dei pouh awh. Siangpahrang koe a pha toteh, siangpahrang e hmalah a minhmai talai dawk rekkâbet lahoi a tabo.
And they said to the king, Here is Nathan the prophet. And when he came in before the king, he went down on his face on the earth.
24 Hahoi Nathan ni Oe siangpahrang ka bawipa, kai hnuk vah Adonijah heh siangpahrang lah ao vaiteh, kaie bawitungkhung dawk a tahung han telah na dei boimaw.
And Nathan said, O my lord king, have you said, Adonijah is to be king after me, seated on the seat of my kingdom?
25 Sahnin vah a ceicathuk teh, kathâw e saring, maitotan hoi, tu naw hah a thei awh teh, siangpahrang capanaw hoi ransa kaukkungnaw hoi vaihma Abiathar tinaw hah a coun, reirei a canei awh teh, siangpahrang Adonijah na hring saw naseh telah atipouh awh.
Because today he has gone down and has put to death oxen and fat beasts and sheep in great numbers, and has sent for all the king's sons to come to him, with the captains of the army and Abiathar the priest; and they are feasting before him and crying, Long life to King Adonijah!
26 Hateiteh, na san kai hoi vaihma Zadok hoi Jehoiada capa Benaiah hoi na san Solomon kaimanaw teh na coun van awh hoeh.
But me, your servant, and Zadok the priest, and Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, and your servant Solomon, he has not sent for.
27 Hote hnonaw heh siangpahrang ka bawipa ni kâ na poe dawk, sak e na pawiteh, siangpahrang ka bawipa ni a hnuk vah bawitungkhung dawk ka tahung hane hah apimaw tie na sannaw koe na la dei hoeh e han namaw, telah atipouh.
Has this thing been done by my lord the king, without giving word to your servants who was to be placed on my lord the king's seat after him?
28 Hahoi siangpahrang Devit ni a pathang e teh, Bathsheba hah na kaw pouh haw atipouh e patetlah siangpahrang teng vah a tho teh a hmalah a kangdue.
Then King David in answer said, Send for Bath-sheba to come to me. And she came in and took her place before the king.
29 Siangpahrang ni lawk a kam teh rucatnae pueng thung dawk hoi ka hringnae ka ratang e Bawipa Cathut a hring e patetlah,
And the king took an oath, and said, By the living Lord, who has been my saviour from all my troubles,
30 nang koevah Isarel BAWIPA Cathut min lahoi na capa Solomon heh kai hnuk vah siangpahrang lah ao roeroe han. Kaie yueng lah ka bawitungkhung dawk a tahung han telah lawk a kam tangcoung e patetlah sahnin ka sak roeroe han telah a ti.
As I took an oath to you by the Lord, the God of Israel, saying, Certainly Solomon your son will become king after me, seated on my seat in my place; so will I do this day.
31 Bathsheba ni minhmai talai rekkâbet lah a tabo laihoi siangpahrang e a kut a kuet teh, ka bawipa siangpahrang Devit teh a yungyoe pou hring lawiseh, telah a ti.
Then Bath-sheba went down on her face on the earth before the king giving him honour, and said, May my lord King David go on living for ever.
32 Siangpahrang Devit ni vaihma Zadok hoi profet Nathan, Jehoiada capa Benaiah tinaw hah na kaw pouh awh haw ati teh, ahnimouh ni a hmalah a kâen awh.
And King David said, Send for Zadok the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada. And they came before the king.
33 Siangpahrang ni ahnimouh koe vah, na bawipa e sannaw hrawi awh nateh, ka capa Solomon hah kaie la dawk kâcui sak nateh, Gihon lah cetkhai awh.
And the king said to them, Take with you the servants of your lord, and put Solomon my son on my beast, yes, mine, and take him down to Gihon;
34 Vaihma Zadok hoi profet Nathan ni hote hmuen koe Isarel siangpahrang lah satui awi naseh. Mongka ueng awh nateh, siangpahrang Solomon hring saw na seh telah a hram awh han.
And there let Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet put the holy oil on him to make him king over Israel; and sounding the horn say, Long life to King Solomon!
35 Ahnie hnuk na kâbang awh vaiteh, ka bawitungkhung dawk na tahung vaiteh, kaie yueng lah siangpahrang lah ao han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Isarel hoi Judah kaukkung lah ka hruek toe telah a ti.
Then come up after him and he will come in and take his place on the seat of my kingdom; for he is to be king in my place, and I have given orders that he is to be ruler over Israel and over Judah.
36 Jehoiada capa Benaiah ni siangpahrang koevah, Amen siangpahrang ka bawipa, Bawipa Jehovah ni, hnâbawtkhai naseh.
And Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, answering the king, said, So be it: and may the Lord, the God of my lord the king, say so.
37 Siangpahrang ka bawipa koevah Jehovah ao van e patetlah, Solomon koehai awmkhai naseh. Ka bawipa siangpahrang Devit e bawitungkhung hlak hai ka bawipa e bawitungkhung teh hoe len naseh telah a ti.
As the Lord has been with my lord the king, even so may he be with Solomon and make the seat of his authority greater than that of my lord King David.
38 Hahoi teh, vaihma Zadok hoi profet Nathah hoi Jehoiada capa Benaiah capa, Kereth taminaw hoi Peleth taminaw a cei awh teh, Solomon teh Devit e la a kâcui sak awh teh, Gihon lah a ceikhai awh.
So Zadok the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, and the Cherethites and the Pelethites, went down and put Solomon on King David's beast and took him to Gihon.
39 Hahoi vaihma Zadok ni, lukkareiim thung hoi satui tanae ki hah a la teh, Solomon hah a awi. Hahoi mongka a ueng awh teh, taminaw pueng ni siangpahrang Solomon teh hring saw naseh telah a hram awh.
And Zadok the priest took the vessel of oil out of the Tent, and put the holy oil on Solomon. And when the horn was sounded, all the people said, Long life to King Solomon!
40 Taminaw ni a hnukkâbang awh. Vovit a ueng awh teh talai meimei kâbawng lah lunghawi poung laihoi a hramki awh.
And all the people came up after him, piping with pipes, and they were glad with great joy, so that the earth was shaking with the sound.
41 Hahoi teh, Adonijah hoi a sannaw ahni koe kaawm e taminaw pueng ni, rawca he a ca awh hnukkhu, hote pawlawknaw a thai awh. Joab ni mongka lawk a thai toteh, kho thung kamthang e pawlawknaw teh bang namaw telah a ti.
And it came to the ears of Adonijah and all the guests who were with him, when their meal was ended. And Joab, hearing the sound of the horn, said, What is the reason of this noise as if the town was worked up?
42 Hottelah a dei lahun nah, vaihma Abiathar capa Jonathan a tho teh, Adonijah ni tho haw, nang teh tamikahawi lah na o e patetlah kamthang kahawi e na thokhai han doeh telah atipouh.
And while the words were on his lips, Jonathan, the son of Abiathar the priest, came; and Adonijah said, Come in; for you are a man of good faith and the news which you have for us will be good.
43 Jonathan ni Adonijah koevah, ka thokhai hoeh bawipa, siangpahrang Devit ni Solomon teh siangpahrang lah a ta toe.
And Jonathan, answering, said to Adonijah, Not so, but our lord King David has made Solomon king:
44 Ahni koe vah vaihma Zadok, profet Nathan, Jehoiada capa Bennaiah, Kereth taminaw hoi Peleth taminaw hah siangpahrang ni a patoun.
And he sent with him Zadok the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, and the Cherethites and the Pelethites; and they put him on the king's beast:
45 Vaihma Zadok hoi profet Nathan ni, Gihon vah siangpahrang hanlah satui a awi roi, hatei, hmuen koehoi lunghawi laihoi a takhang awh teh, hote kamthang dawk khopui thung ruengruengti awh. Hothateh, na thai awh e kamthang doeh.
And Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet put the holy oil on him and made him king in Gihon; and they came back from there with joy, and the town was all worked up. This is the noise which has come to your ears.
46 Solomon teh bawitungkhung dawk a tahung.
And now Solomon is seated on the seat of the kingdom.
47 Siangpahrang e a sannaw ni na Cathut ni nange min hlak Solomon e min teh, tawmrasang naseh. Na bawitungkhung hlak a bawitungkhung teh len sak na seh telah ka bawipa Devit hah lunghawikhai hanlah a tho awh. Hahoi siangpahrang teh ikhun dawk a tabo.
And the king's servants came to our lord King David, blessing him and saying, May God make the name of Solomon better than your name, and the seat of his authority greater than your seat; and the king was bent low in worship on his bed.
48 Siangpahrang ni hai hettelah a dei. Bawipa Isarelnaw e Cathut, sahnin ka bawitungkhung dawk ka tahung hane na kapoekung teh pholen e lah awm naseh. Ka mit roeroe ni a hmu telah a ti.
Then the king said, May the God of Israel be praised, who has given one of my seed to be king in my place this day and has let my eyes see it.
49 Hahoi teh Adonijah ni a hrawi e pueng ni, a taki awh, a thaw awh teh amamae lam dawk lengkaleng a cei awh.
And all the guests of Adonijah got up in fear and went away, every man to his place.
50 Adonijah ni Solomon hah a taki. A thaw teh a cei teh thuengnae khoungroe ki hah a kuet.
And Adonijah himself was full of fear because of Solomon; and he got up and went to the altar, and put his hands on its horns.
51 Hahoi khenhaw! Adonijah ni siangpahrang Solomon a taki teh, siangpahrang Solomon ni a san heh a thei hoeh hanelah kai koe lawk kam naseh telah thuengnae khoungroe ki a kuet telah Solomon koe a dei pouh awh.
And they gave Solomon word of it, saying, See, Adonijah goes in such fear of King Solomon, that he has put his hands on the horns of the altar, saying, Let King Solomon first give me his oath that he will not put his servant to death with the sword.
52 Yuemkamcu lah onae kamnuek pawiteh, a sam buet touh boehai talai dawk bawt mahoeh. Hatei, yonnae a tawn tie ka thai pawiteh a due han telah a ti.
And Solomon said, If he is seen to be a man of good faith, not a hair of him will be touched; but if any wrongdoing is seen in him, he is to be put to death.
53 Hahoi siangpahrang Solomon ni tami a patoun teh thuengnae khoungroe koehoi a hrawi. Hahoi a cei teh, siangpahrang Solomon hah kut a man. Solomon ni ahni koevah, nama im ban leih atipouh.
So King Solomon sent, and they took him down from the altar. And he came and gave honour to King Solomon; and Solomon said to him, Go to your house.
