< 2 Samuel 12 >

1 BAWIPA ni Devit koe Nathan hah a patoun. Nathan ni a kâen teh Oe siangpahrang, kho buet touh dawk tami kahni touh ao, buet touh teh ka tawnta e tami, buet touh teh ka roedeng e tami.
Then the Lord sent Nathan vnto Dauid, who came to him, and sayd vnto him, There were two men in one citie, the one riche, and the other poore.
2 Ka tawnta e ni teh maito hoi tu moikapap a tawn.
The rich man had exceeding many sheepe and oxen:
3 Ka roedeng e tami teh tulaca buet touh a ran teh a paca e hloilah alouke hno banghai tawn hoeh. Hote tulaca teh ama hoi a canaw hoi rei ao awh teh a roung awh. Rawca hai rei a hmawng awh. Tui hai rei a nei awh. A bawipa e a lungtabue dawk kaawm e a canu patetlah doeh ao.
But the poore had none at all, saue one litle sheepe which he had bought, and nourished vp: and it grew vp with him, and with his children also, and did eate of his owne morsels, and dranke of his owne cup, and slept in his bosome, and was vnto him as his daughter.
4 Ka tawnta e im dawk imyin buet touh a tho teh imyin paca hanelah amae tu hoi maitonaw thei hane a pasai teh ka roedeng e tulaca hah a la teh imyin hanelah a thawng pouh, telah atipouh.
Now there came a stranger vnto the rich man, who refused to take of his owne sheepe, and of his owne oxen to dresse for the stranger that was come vnto him, but tooke the poore mans sheepe, and dressed it for the man that was come to him.
5 Devit teh hote tami lathueng puenghoi a lungkhuek teh, Nathan koevah BAWIPA a hring e patetlah hot patetlae hno ka sak e teh a due hane roe doeh.
Then Dauid was exceeding wroth with the man, and sayde to Nathan, As the Lord liueth, the man that hath done this thing, shall surely dye,
6 Pahrennae tawn laipalah, hot patetlae hno a sak dawkvah, tulaca yueng lah let pali touh hoi patho naseh telah ati.
And he shall restore the lambe foure folde, because he did this thing, and had no pitie thereof.
7 Nathan ni Devit koe ahni teh alouke tami nahoeh. Nang hah doeh. Isarel BAWIPA Cathut ni a dei e teh, Isarel siangpahrang lah satui na awi teh Sawl e kut dawk hoi na hlout sak.
Then Nathan sayd to Dauid, Thou art the man. Thus sayth the Lord God of Israel, I anoynted thee King ouer Israel, and deliuered thee out of the hand of Saul,
8 Na bawipa im dawk e râwnaw na coe sak, na bawipa e yunaw hai na lungtabue dawk ka hruek, Isarel imthung hoi Judah imthung hai na poe. Hotnaw hah youn rah pawiteh alouke hno hai na poe sin han rah.
And gaue thee thy lordes house, and thy lords wiues into thy bosome, and gaue thee the house of Israel, and of Iudah, and would moreouer (if that had bene too litle) haue giuen thee such and such things.
9 Nang teh BAWIPA e kâlawk poe e na noutna hoeh. Bangkongmaw ka hmaitung vah kahawihoehe hno na sak. Hit tami Uriah hringnae tahloi hoi na thei teh, a yu hah na lawp. Ammonnaw hoi ahni teh tahloi hoi na thei.
Wherefore hast thou despised the commandement of the Lord, to doe euill in his sight? thou hast killed Vriah the Hittite with ye sworde, and hast taken his wife to be thy wife, and hast slaine him with the sworde of the children of Ammon.
10 Nang ni kai banglahai na noutna hoeh teh Hit tami Uriah e yu na la dawkvah, na imthungnaw teh tahloi hoi pou a kâhmo awh han toe.
Now therefore the sworde shall neuer depart from thine house, because thou hast despised me, and taken the wife of Vriah the Hittite to be thy wife.
11 BAWIPA ni a dei e teh, na imthung dawk hoi hno kahawihoehe ka tho sak han. Na hmaitung vah na yunaw ka la vaiteh, na imri hah ka poe vaiteh, kanîthun vah a ikhai awh han.
Thus sayth the Lord, Behold, I will rayse vp euil against thee out of thine owne house, and will take thy wiues before thine eyes, and giue them vnto thy neighbour, and he shall lie with thy wiues in the sight of this sunne.
12 Bangkongtetpawiteh, nang ni arulahoi na sak, hatei kai ni Isarelnaw hmaitung kanî hmalah kamnue sak han telah ati.
For thou diddest it secretly: but I will doe this thing before all Israel, and before the sunne.
13 Devit ni Nathan koevah, kai ni BAWIPA koe ka payon toe telah ati. Nathan ni Devit koevah, BAWIPA ni hai na yonnae na la pouh toe. Na dout mahoeh.
Then Dauid sayde vnto Nathan, I haue sinned against the Lord. And Nathan sayde vnto Dauid, The Lord also hath put away thy sinne, thou shalt not die.
14 Hateiteh, nang ni hottelah na payonnae lahoi BAWIPA e tarannaw koe dudam nahanelah na poe dawkvah, atu na hmu e na ca hah a due roeroe han telah atipouh. Hahoi Nathan ni a im lah a ban takhai.
Howbeit because by this deede thou hast caused the enemies of the Lord to blaspheme, the childe that is borne vnto thee shall surely die.
15 Uriah e yu ni Devit hanelah a khe pouh e capa hah BAWIPA ni a hem teh ka nut lah a pataw.
So Nathan departed vnto his house: and the Lord stroke the childe that Vriahs wife bare vnto Dauid, and it was sicke.
16 Hatdawkvah, Devit ni camo hanelah Cathut koe a kâhei. Rawcahai laihoi karum tuettuet talai dawk a yan.
Dauid therefore besought God for the childe, and fasted and went in, and lay all night vpon the earth.
17 A imthungnaw dawk e kacuenaw a thaw awh teh a pathaw awh hanelah a teng vah a kangdue awh. Hatei thaw ngai hoeh, ahnimouh koe rawcahai cat hoeh.
Then the Elders of his house arose to come vnto him, and to cause him to rise from the groud: but he would not, neither did he eate meate with them.
18 Asari hnin vah camo teh a due. Camo a due tie a sannaw ni Devit koe dei ngam awh hoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh ahnimouh ni camo a hring nah maimouh ni dei e lawk hah thai han ngai hoeh, camo a due toe telah bangtelamaw maimouh ni dei ngam awh han. Amahoima runae kâpoe payon vaih telah ati awh.
So on the seuenth day the child dyed: and the seruants of Dauid feared to tell him that the childe was dead: for they sayde, Beholde, while the childe was aliue, we spake vnto him, and he woulde not hearken vnto our voyce: how then shall we say vnto him, The childe is dead, to vexe him more?
19 Devit ni hottelah a sannaw ni arulawk duem a dei e a thai navah, camo a due tie Devit ni a panue. Hatdawkvah, Devit ni a sannaw koevah, camo a due toung maw telah ati. Ahnimouh ni oe a due toe telah atipouh awh.
But when Dauid sawe that his seruantes whispered, Dauid perceiued that the childe was dead: therefore Dauid sayde vnto his seruants, Is the childe dead? And they sayd, He is dead.
20 Devit teh talai dawk hoi a thaw teh hak a kâpasu teh satui a kâhluk, a khohna a kâpahoung teh BAWIPA e im lah a cei teh a bawk. A im lah bout a ban teh bu ca hane a hei navah, a sannaw ni a rakueng pouh awh teh a ca.
Then Dauid arose from the earth, and washed and anoynted himselfe, and changed his apparell, and came into the house of the Lord, and worshipped, and afterward came to his owne house, and bade that they should set bread before him, and he did eate.
21 A sannaw ni na hno na sak e hah bangmaw, camo a hring navah rawca nahai teh na khuika, hatei camo a due toteh na thaw teh rawca na ca telah atipouh awh.
Then saide his seruants vnto him, What thing is this, that thou hast done? thou diddest fast and weepe for the childe while it was aliue, but when the childe was dead, thou diddest rise vp, and eate meate.
22 Devit ni Oe, camo a hring navah rawca kahai teh ka ka, camo heh a hring thai nahan BAWIPA ni a pahren talang teh tie apinimaw a dei thai han ka ti dawk doeh.
And he sayde, While the childe was yet aliue, I fasted, and wept: for I sayde, Who can tell whether God will haue mercy on me, that the childe may liue?
23 Atuteh camo a due toe, bangkongmaw rawca kahai han vaw, bout ka hring sak thai han na maw. Ahni koe kai ka cei han, ahni teh kai koe bout ban mahoeh toe telah ati.
But now being dead, wherefore shoulde I now fast? Can I bring him againe any more? I shall goe to him, but he shall not returne to me.
24 Devit ni a yu Bathsheba hah a lung a pahawi. Ahni koe a kâen teh a ikhai. Ahni ni ca tongpa buet touh a khe teh Solomon telah min a phung. Ahni teh BAWIPA ni a lung a pataw.
And Dauid comforted Bath-sheba his wife, and went in vnto her, and lay with her, and she bare a sonne, and he called his name Salomon: also the Lord loued him.
25 Profet Nathan hah a patoun teh camo e min teh BAWIPA e Jedidiah telah min a phung.
For the Lord had sent by Nathan the Prophet: therefore he called his name Iedidiah, because the Lord loued him.
26 Joab ni Ammon ram Rabbah kho hah a tuk teh khopui hah a la.
Then Ioab fought against Rabbah of the children of Ammon, and tooke the citie of the kingdome.
27 Joab ni Devit koe patounenaw a patoun teh kai ni Rabbah kho ka tuk, tui kapoekung khopui hah ka la.
Therefore Ioab sent messengers to Dauid, saying, I haue fought against Rabbah, and haue taken the citie of waters.
28 Atuvah, ka cawi rae taminaw pâkhueng awh, khopui teng tumpup awh nateh tuk awh nateh lat awh. Khopui ka la vaiteh kama e ka min lahoi ka kaw han telah ati.
Now therefore gather the rest of the people together, and besiege the city, that thou mayest take it, lest the victorie be attributed to me.
29 Devit ni tami pueng a pâkhueng teh Rabbah vah a cei awh, a tuk awh teh a la awh.
So Dauid gathered al the people together, and went against Rabbah, and besieged it, and tooke it.
30 Hahoi ahnimae siangpahrangnaw e bawilakhung a kâmuk e a la pouh awh. Sui talen buet touh a ri, aphukaawm e talung hai ao. Devit a kâmuk sak awh. Kho thung e hno moi a lawp awh.
And he tooke their Kings crowne from his head, (which weighed a talent of golde, with precious stones) and it was set on Dauids head: and he brought away the spoyle of the citie in exceeding great abundance.
31 Kho thung e khocanaw a tâco sak awh teh, hlaw hoi sumtaboung hoi cakâ hoi thaw a tawk sak awh teh, amhru hai a sak sak awh. Ammonnaw e khopuinaw hah hottelah a sak awh. Devit hoi a taminaw pueng Jerusalem kho lah a ban awh.
And he carryed away the people that was therein, and put them vnder sawes, and vnder yron harowes, and vnder axes of yron, and cast them into the tyle kylne: euen thus did he with all the cities of the children of Ammon. Then Dauid and all the people returned vnto Ierusalem.
