2 Samuel 16
1 Devit ni monsom kuet a tapoung navah, Mephibosheth e a san Ziba ni a dawn nahan la kahni touh a rakueng. Vaiyei tueng 200, misur bom ka ke e 100, thaibunglung paw 100, touh hoi misur um buet touh la dawk a phu sak.
And when David was a little past the top [of the hill], behold, Ziba the servant of Mephibosheth met him, with a couple of asses saddled, and upon them two hundred [loaves] of bread, and a hundred bunches of raisins, and a hundred of summer fruits, and a bottle of wine.
2 Siangpahrang ni Ziba koevah, bangtelah na sak hane maw hete hno heh na sin atipouh. Ziba ni la heh siangpahrang imthung a kâcui nahane, vaiyei hoi a pawnaw teh thoundounnaw ni a ca hane, misurtui hai kahrawngum a tha katawnnaw ni a nei hane doeh telah atipouh.
And the king said to Ziba, What meanest thou by these? And Ziba said, The asses [are] for the king's household to ride on; and the bread and summer fruit for the young men to eat; and the wine, that such as are faint in the wilderness may drink.
3 Siangpahrang ni na bawipa e capa hah namaw ao telah a pacei. Ziba ni Jerusalem kho dawk ao. Sahnin vah Isarelnaw ni apa e uknae hah na poe han telah ati doeh na a telah atipouh.
And the king said, And where [is] thy master's son? And Ziba said to the king, Behold, he abideth at Jerusalem: for he said, To-day shall the house of Israel restore to me the kingdom of my father.
4 Siangpahrang ni Ziba koe vah Mephibosheth ni a tawn e hno pueng nange lah ao toe telah atipouh. Ziba ni na hmalah kârahnoum laihoi ka tho. Oe siangpahrang ka bawipa, na minhmai kahawi ka hmu thai nahan pou kâyawm han telah atipouh.
Then said the king to Ziba, Behold, thine [are] all that [pertained] to Mephibosheth. And Ziba said, I humbly beseech thee [that] I may find grace in thy sight, my lord, O king.
5 Devit siangpahrang teh Bahurim kho a pha toteh, Sawl imthung Gera capa a min Shimei teh thoebo laihoi a tho.
And when king David came to Bahurim, behold, thence came out a man of the family of the house of Saul, whose name [was] Shimei, the son of Gera: he came forth, and cursed still as he came.
6 Devit hoi siangpahrang e a sannaw hah talung hoi a dêi awh. Taminaw hoi athakaawme taminaw teh avoilah aranglah ao awh.
And he cast stones at David, and at all the servants of king David: and all the people and all the mighty men [were] on his right hand and on his left.
7 Shimei ni thoebo nalaihoi cet leih khe, cet leih khe, nange thi ka palawng e hoi tamikayon,
And thus said Shimei when he cursed, Come out, come out, thou bloody man, and thou man of Belial:
8 Sawl e a uknae a la teh, Sawl imthung e a thi paling nange na lû dawk BAWIPA ni a pha sak teh, a uknaeram teh na capa Absalom a poe toe. Thi ka palawng e lah na o dawkvah, namahoima runae na kâpoe e doeh telah atipouh.
The LORD hath returned upon thee all the blood of the house of Saul, in whose stead thou hast reigned; and the LORD hath delivered the kingdom into the hand of Absalom thy son: and behold, thou [art taken] in thy mischief, because thou [art] a bloody man.
9 Zeruiah capa Abishai ni siangpahrang koevah, bangkongmaw ui ro ni ka bawipa thoe a bo. A lû ka tâtueng pouh han telah atipouh.
Then said Abishai the son of Zeruiah to the king, Why should this dead dog curse my lord the king? let me go over, I pray thee, and take off his head.
10 Siangpahrang ni nangmouh Zeruiah capanaw, nangmanaw hoi kai teh bangpuibangpa nahoeh. BAWIPA ni Devit hah thoebo lah awmseh, telah ahni koe lawk thui pawiteh thoebo yawkaw naseh. Hatdawkvah, bangkongmaw hettelah na sak telah apinihai tet pouh mahoeh toe.
And the king said, What have I to do with you, ye sons of Zeruiah? so let him curse, because the LORD hath said to him, Curse David. Who shall then say, Why hast thou done so?
11 Devit ni Abishai hoi a sannaw koe, ka thung hoi ka tâcawt e ka capa ni, thei hanelah na noung pawiteh, Benjamin miphunnaw ni hothlak thei han na noung han doeh. Bangtelah hai tet awh hanh. Thoe na bo yawkaw naseh. BAWIPA ni a sak sak e doeh.
And David said to Abishai, and to all his servants, Behold, my son, who came forth from my bowels, seeketh my life: how much more now [may this] Benjaminite [do it]? let him alone, and let him curse; for the LORD hath bidden him.
12 BAWIPA ni ka rucatnae a hmu vaiteh, ahni ni thoe na bo e heh ahawinae koe lahoi BAWIPA ni na pathung e lahai ao han telah Abishai hoi a sannaw koe a dei pouh.
It may be that the LORD will look on my affliction, and that the LORD will requite me good for his cursing this day.
13 Devit hoi a taminaw teh lam dawk a cei awh lahun navah, Shimei teh Devit hoi phekkadangka lah mon langboung a cei teh, thoebo nalaihoi talung hoi a dei teh, vaiphu a kahei sin.
And as David and his men went by the way, Shimei went along on the hill's side over against him, and cursed as he went, and threw stones at him, and cast dust.
14 Siangpahrang hoi a hnukkâbangnaw teh a tawn poung awh. Jordan tui koe a pha awh teh a kâhat awh.
And the king, and all the people that [were] with him, came weary, and refreshed themselves there.
15 Absalom hoi a taminaw pueng Jerusalem kho a pha awh teh, ahni koe Ahithophel hah ao.
And Absalom, and all the people the men of Israel, came to Jerusalem, and Ahithophel with him.
16 Devit e a hui Arki tami Hushai teh Absalom koe a pha toteh, Hushai ni Absalom koevah, siangpahrang na hring saw naseh, siangpahrang na hring saw naseh telah yawhawinae a poe.
And it came to pass, when Hushai the Archite, David's friend, had come to Absalom, that Hushai said to Absalom, God save the king, God save the king.
17 Absalom ni Hushai koevah, hettelamaw na hui na lungpataw, bangkongmaw na hui koe na cei hoeh telah ati.
And Absalom said to Hushai, [Is] this thy kindness to thy friend? why wentest thou not with thy friend?
18 Hushai ni Absalom koevah, ka cet mahoeh, Cathut ama hoi ahnimouh Isarelnaw ni a rawi awh e koe a san lah ka o han, ahni koe ka o han atipouh.
And Hushai said to Absalom, Nay; but whom the LORD, and this people, and all the men of Israel choose, his will I be, and with him will I abide.
19 Apie thaw maw ka tawk han. A capa koe thaw ka tawk han nahoehmaw. Na pa e hmalah thaw ka tawk e patetlah nange hmalah ka tawk han telah atipouh.
And again, whom should I serve? [should I] not [serve] in the presence of his son? as I have served in thy father's presence, so will I be in thy presence.
20 Absalom ni Ahithophel koe bangtelamaw ka sak han, pouknae na poe haw telah atipouh.
Then said Absalom to Ahithophel, Give counsel among you what we shall do.
21 Ahithophel ni na pa e a yudo im karingkungnaw a ta e naw koe kâen sin. Isarelnaw ni na pa ni na maithoe tie panuek awh vaiteh, nang koe kaawm e naw e kut teh a tha a sai awh han atipouh.
And Ahithophel said to Absalom, Go in to thy father's concubines, which he hath left to keep the house; and all Israel shall hear that thou art abhorred by thy father: then shall the hands of all that [are] with thee be strong.
22 Hottelah imvan vah Absalom hanelah rim a sak pouh awh. Hottelah Isarelnaw e a hmaitung vah, a na pa e yudonaw koe a kâen.
So they spread Absalom a tent upon the top of the house; and Absalom went in to his father's concubines in the sight of all Israel.
23 Hatnae tueng nah Ahithophel ni pouknae a poe e teh, Cathut lawk patetlah ouk pouk pouh e lah ao. Hot patetlah Ahithophel ni Devit hoi Absalom pouknae a poe e pueng teh, pouk pouh e lah ao.
And the counsel of Ahithophel, which he counseled in those days, [was] as if a man had inquired at the oracle of God: so [was] all the counsel of Ahithophel both with David and with Absalom.
