1 Kings 2
1 Now the days of David drew near that he should die. And he charged Solomon his son, saying,
Devit a due han a hnai toung dawkvah, a capa Solomon hah kâ a poe.
2 I am going the way of all the earth. Be thou strong therefore, and show thyself a man,
Talai phung patetlah ka cei han toe. Hatdawkvah, thakâlat nateh tongpatang lah awm loe.
3 and keep the charge of Jehovah thy God, to walk in his ways, to keep his statutes, and his commandments, and his ordinances, and his testimonies, according to that which is written in the law of Moses, that thou may prosper in all that thou do, and wherever thou turn thyself.
Na sak e hno pueng hoi na ceinae naw pueng koe a lamcawn nahanlah Mosi e kâlawk dawk thut e patetlah BAWIPA na Cathut ni a lamthung dawn hane hoi a phunglam, kâpoelawk, lawkcengnae hoi na panuesaknae naw tarawi hanelah lawk na poe e naw hah tarawi haw.
4 That Jehovah may establish his word which he spoke concerning me, saying, If thy sons take heed to their way, to walk before me in truth with all their heart and with all their soul, there shall not fail thee a man on the throne of Israel.
BAWIPA ni kaie kong dawk hoi na capanaw ni lungthin buemlahoi a hringnae buemlahoi a ceinae koe kâhruetcuet lahoi ka hmalah yuemkamcu lah awm pawiteh, Isarelnaw e bawitungkhung dawk ka tahung hane na vout awh mahoeh, telah a dei e hah a caksak han.
5 Moreover thou also know what Joab the son of Zeruiah did to me, even what he did to the two captains of the armies of Israel, to Abner the son of Ner, and to Amasa the son of Jether, whom he killed, and shed the blood of war in peace, and put the blood of war upon his belt that was about his loins, and in his shoes that were on his feet.
Hathloilah, Zeruiah capa Joab ni kai dawk a sak e naw hah na panue. Isarel ransanaw kaukkung kahni touh, Ner capa Abner hoi Jether capa Amosa a theinae dawk a sak e naw hah, roumnae tueng nah tarantuknae thipaling a lawng sak teh a keng dawk a kâyeng e taisawm dawk hai thoseh, a khokkhawm dawk hai thoseh, tarantuknae koe kânep e naw hah pahnim hanh.
6 Do therefore according to thy wisdom, and do not let his hoar head go down to Sheol in peace. (Sheol h7585)
Hatdawkvah, na lungang e patetlah tawk haw, a sam kaponaw phuen vah karoumcalah loum sak hanh. (Sheol h7585)
7 But show kindness to the sons of Barzillai the Gileadite, and let them be of those who eat at thy table, for so they came to me when I fled from Absalom thy brother.
Gilead tami Barzillai tinaw koe teh lungmanae kamnuek sak. Na caboi dawk rawca kavenkung lah sak. Bangkongtetpawiteh, na hmau Absalom koehoi ka yawng nah kai koe a tho awh.
8 And, behold, there is with thee Shimei the son of Gera, the Benjamite, of Bahurim, who cursed me with a grievous curse in the day when I went to Mahanaim. But he came down to meet me at the Jordan, and I swore to him by Jehovah, saying, I will not put thee to death with the sword.
Hahoi, khenhaw! Bahurim kho e tami Benjamin catoun Gera capa Shimei heh nang koe ao. Ahni ni, Mahanaim hmuen koe ka cei navah, Atangcalah thoe na bo. Hatei, Jordan vah kai na dawn hanelah a tho teh, hote hmuen koe tahloi hoi thei hoeh hanelah Cathut min hno lahoi lawk yo ka kam toe.
9 Now therefore do not hold him guiltless, for thou are a wise man, and thou will know what thou ought to do to him, and thou shall bring his hoar head down to Sheol with blood. (Sheol h7585)
Hatdawkvah, yonnae ka tawn hoeh e patetlah pouk hanh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, nang teh tami lungkaang lah na o. A lathueng vah bangtelamaw ka sak han tie hah na panue han doeh. Phuen dawk a sam kaponaw teh thipaling hoi na ceisak han telah atipouh. (Sheol h7585)
10 And David slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David.
Hahoi Devit teh a na mintoenaw koe a i teh, Devit khopui dawk a pakawp awh.
11 And the days that David reigned over Israel were forty years. He reigned seven years in Hebron, and he reigned thirty-three years in Jerusalem.
Devit ni Isarel a uknae tueng kum 40 touh a pha. Hebron vah kum 7 touh a uk teh, Jerusalem vah kum 33 touh a uk.
12 And Solomon sat upon the throne of David his father, and his kingdom was established greatly.
Hahoi, Solomon teh a na pa e bawitungkhung dawk a tahung teh a uknaeram teh hoe a caksak.
13 Then Adonijah the son of Haggith came to Bathsheba the mother of Solomon. And she said, Do thou come peaceably? And he said, Peaceably.
Haggith capa Adonijah teh Solomon e manu Bathsheba koe a tho. Manu ni roumnae hoi maw na tho telah a pacei. Roumnae hoi ka tho doeh telah atipouh.
14 He said moreover, I have something to say to thee. And she said, Say on.
Hahoi, ahni ni nang koe lawk dei hane ka tawn atipouh. Manu ni dei haw atipouh.
15 And he said, Thou know that the kingdom was mine, and that all Israel set their faces on me, that I should reign. However the kingdom is turned about, and has become my brother's, for it was his from Jehovah.
Ahni ni ram hateh kaie lah ao tie hoi Isarelnaw pueng ni hai kai ni uknaeram hanlah a pouknae naw kai dawk a bo tie hai na panue. Hatei, ram hateh, ka nawngha koe a pha toe. Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA khokhangnae teh ahni hanelah doeh ao.
16 And now I ask one petition of thee; do not deny me. And she said to him, Say on.
Atuvah, hno buet touh hei hane ka tawn, na ek pouh hanh leih atipouh. Manu ni dei leih bout atipouh.
17 And he said, Speak, I pray thee, to Solomon the king (for he will not say no thee), that he give me Abishag the Shunammite to wife.
Pahren lahoi siangpahrang Solomon na pato pouh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, na lawk teh ek mahoeh. Shunam tami Abishag hah yu lah na paluen sak haw naseh atipouh.
18 And Bathsheba said, Well, I will speak for thee to the king.
Bathsheba ni, oe siangpahrang koe ka dei pouh han atipouh.
19 Bathsheba therefore went to king Solomon to speak to him for Adonijah. And the king rose up to meet her, and bowed himself to her, and sat down on his throne, and caused a throne to be set for the king's mother. And she sat on his right hand.
Hahoi, Bathsheba teh Adonijah e lawk dei pouh hanelah, siangpahrang Solomon koe a cei. Siangpahrang teh a manu a dawn hanelah a thaw teh, a hmalah a tabo teh a bawitungkhung dawk bout a tahung. Siangpahrang e manu hanelah bawitungkhung hah a hruek pou teh, aranglah a tahung pouh.
20 Then she said, I ask one small petition of thee; do not deny me. And the king said to her, Ask on, my mother, for I will not deny thee.
Hahoi, hno buet touh ka hei hane ao. Na lungkuepkhai loe atipouh. Siangpahrang ni het loe anu, ka ek mahoeh atipouh.
21 And she said, Let Abishag the Shunammite be given to Adonijah thy brother to wife.
Ahni ni, Shunam tami Abishag he na hmau Adonijah e yu lah paluen sak loe atipouh.
22 And king Solomon answered and said to his mother, And why do thou ask Abishag the Shunammite for Adonijah? Ask for him the kingdom also, for he is my elder brother, even for him, and for Abiathar the priest, and for Joab the son of Zeruiah.
Siangpahrang Solomon ni, bangkongmaw Shunam napui Abishag hah Adonijah hanelah na hei. Uknaeram hai het pouh bokhe. Bangkongtetpawiteh, ahni teh ka hmau nahoehmaw. Ahni hane hoi vaihma Abiathar hoi Zeruiah capa Joab hane hai het pouh bokhe atipouh.
23 Then king Solomon swore by Jehovah, saying, God do so to me, and more also, if Adonijah has not spoken this word against his own life.
Siangpahrang Solomon ni BAWIPA e min lahoi Adonijah ni a hei e heh ama due nahane nahoeh pawiteh, Cathut ni a ngai e patetlah kai dawk sak lawiseh, hothlak ka pataw lahai yah ati.
24 Now therefore as Jehovah lives, who has established me, and set me on the throne of David my father, and who has made me a house as he promised, surely Adonijah shall be put to death this day.
BAWIPA e lawkkam patetlah na caksak teh apa Devit e bawitungkhung dawk na tahung sak teh ka imthung kangdout sak e hringnae lahoi ka dei. Adonijah het sahnin roeroe thei e lah awm seh telah lawk a kam.
25 And king Solomon sent by Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and he fell upon him so that he died.
Hahoi teh, siangpahrang Solomon ni Jehoiada capa Benaiah a patoun teh ahni ni a hem teh a due.
26 And the king said to Abiathar the priest, Get thee to Anathoth, to thine own fields, for thou are worthy of death. But I will not at this time put thee to death, because thou bore the ark of the lord Jehovah before David my father, and because thou were afflicted in all wherein my father was afflicted.
Hahoi, vaihma Abiathar koevah, siangpahrang ni, Anathoth kho e nang nama im ban leih. Due hanlah na kamcu, hatei apa Devit hmalah Bawipa Jehovah e thingkong na hrawm teh apa ni a khang e runae naw hai na khangkhai van dawkvah, atu teh na thet mahoeh rah atipouh.
27 So Solomon thrust out Abiathar from being priest to Jehovah, that he might fulfill the word of Jehovah, which he spoke concerning the house of Eli in Shiloh.
Hahoi teh, Cathut ni Shiloh kho vah Eli imthungnaw hno lahoi a dei e a kuep nahanelah, Solomon ni Abiathar teh BAWIPA e vaihma thaw dawk hoi a takhoe.
28 And the news came to Joab, for Joab had turned after Adonijah, though he did not turn after Absalom. And Joab fled to the tent of Jehovah, and caught hold on the horns of the altar.
Hote lawk hah Joab ni a thai. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Joab teh Absalom koelah bawk hoeh eiteh, Adonijah koelah ka bawk e tami lah ao. Hahoi Joab teh BAWIPA e lukkareiim dawk a yawng teh thuengnae khoungroe ki hah a kuet.
29 And it was told king Solomon, Joab has fled to the tent of Jehovah, and, behold, he is by the altar. Then Solomon sent Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, saying, Go, fall upon him.
Hahoi, BAWIPA e lukkareiim dawk Joab a yawng, thuengnae khoungroe koe ao telah Solomon koe a dei pouh awh. Hahoi siangpahrang Solomon ni Jehoiada capa Benaiah koe cet nateh, thet atipouh.
30 And Benaiah came to the tent of Jehovah, and said to him, Thus says the king, Come forth. And he said, No, but I will die here. And Benaiah brought the king word again, saying, Thus said Joab, and thus he answered me.
Benaiah teh BAWIPA lukkareiim koe lah a ceitakhang teh ahni koevah siangpahrang ni tâcawt loe ati atipouh. Ahni ni nahoeh hete hmuen koe doeh ka due han atipouh. Benaiah ni Joab ni hettelah a dei, hettelah na pato telah siangpahrang koe a thai sak.
31 And the king said to him, Do as he has said, and fall upon him, and bury him, that thou may take away the blood, which Joab shed without cause, from me and from my father's house.
Siangpahrang ni hai yon ka tawn hoeh e tami Joab ni a thei e yonnae teh kai hoi apa imthungnaw kâbet hoeh hanelah a dei e patetlah thet nateh pakawm awh atipouh.
32 And Jehovah will return his blood upon his own head, because he fell upon two men more righteous and better than he, and killed them with the sword, and my father David did not know it, namely, Abner the son of Ner, captain of the army of Israel, and Amasa the son of Jether, captain of the army of Judah.
Hat toteh, ama hlak kalan e kahawi e tami kahni touh Ner capa Abner Isarel ransanaw kaukkung hoi Jether capa Amsa Judah ransanaw kaukkung hah apa Devit ni panuek laipalah a tuk teh, tahloi hoi a thei dawkvah, BAWIPA ni a thipaling teh amae a lû dawk a pha sak han.
33 So shall their blood return upon the head of Joab, and upon the head of his seed forever. But to David, and to his seed, and to his house, and to his throne, there shall be peace forever from Jehovah.
Hottelah, thipaling teh Joab e lû dawk hoi a catounnaw e lû dawk yuengyoe ban vaiteh, Devit e lathueng thoseh, a ca catounnaw e lathueng thoseh, a imthungnaw e lathueng thoseh, a bawitungkhung dawk BAWIPA koehoi roumnae yungyoe ao han atipouh.
34 Then Benaiah the son of Jehoiada went up, and fell upon him, and killed him. And he was buried in his own house in the wilderness.
Jehoiada capa Benaiah ni a cei teh a thei. Hahoi kahrawngum amae im dawk a pakawp.
35 And the king put Benaiah the son of Jehoiada in his room over the army. And the king put Zadok the priest in the place of Abiathar.
Hahoi siangpahrang ni Jehoiada capa Benaiah teh, ransabawi lah a hruek teh, vaihma Zadok hah siangpahrang ni Abiathar e a yueng lah a hruek.
36 And the king sent and called for Shimei, and said to him, Build for thee a house in Jerusalem, and dwell there, and go not forth from there anywhere.
Hahoi siangpahrang ni Shimei a kaw sak teh, ahni koevah Jerusalem vah im sak nateh, hawvah awmh. Hote hmuen koehoi nahai tâcawt hanh.
37 For on the day thou go out, and pass over the brook Kidron, know thou for certain that thou shall surely die; thy blood shall be upon thine own head.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, na tâco hnin, Kidron palang na raka hnin roeroe vah na due han tie hah panuek. Na thipaling teh nama e na lû dawk ao han atipouh.
38 And Shimei said to the king, The saying is good. As my lord the king has said, so will thy servant do. And Shimei dwelt in Jerusalem many days.
Shimei ni siangpahrang koevah, bokheiyah, siangpahrang ka bawipa ni na dei e patetlah na san ni ka sak han atipouh.
39 And it came to pass at the end of three years, that two of the servants of Shimei ran away to Achish, son of Maacah, king of Gath. And they told Shimei, saying, Behold, thy servants are in Gath.
Shimei teh Jerusalem vah ka saw hnawn lah ao. Kum thum touh a ro toteh, Shimei koe kaawm e sannaw thung hoi tami kahni touh teh, Gath siangpahrang Maakah capa Akhish koe a yawng. Thaihaw, na san teh Gath vah ao telah Shimei koe a dei pouh awh.
40 And Shimei arose, and saddled his donkey, and went to Gath to Achish to seek his servants. And Shimei went, and brought his servants from Gath.
Shimei a thaw teh, la a rakueng teh a san tawng hanelah Gath vah Akhish koe a cei. Hahoi Shimei ni Gath kho e a san hah a thokhai.
41 And it was told Solomon that Shimei had gone from Jerusalem to Gath, and was come again.
Shimei teh Jerusalem kho dawk hoi a tâco teh Gath kho lah a cei teh, bout a ban telah Solomon koe a dei pouh awh.
42 And the king sent and called for Shimei, and said to him, Did I not adjure thee by Jehovah, and protest to thee, saying, Know for certain, that on the day thou go out, and walk abroad anywhere, thou shall surely die? And thou said to me, The saying that I have heard is good.
Siangpahrang ni Shimei a kaw sak teh, ahni koevah na tâco hnin, ram louk lah na cei hnin vah na due roeroe han telah BAWIPA e min noe lahoi lawk kâkam teh na thaisak nahoehmaw. Hahoi nang ni hai na dei e ka thai e heh ahawi na ti.
43 Why then have thou not kept the oath of Jehovah, and the commandment that I have charged thee with?
Bangkongmaw BAWIPA e lawkkam hoi kâlawknaw na tarawi hoeh atipouh.
44 The king said moreover to Shimei, Thou know all the iniquity which thy heart is privy to, what thou did to David my father. Therefore Jehovah shall return thy iniquity upon thine own head.
Siangpahrang ni Shimei koe, na hawihoehnae apa Devit koe na sak e hah na lungthin ni na panue. Hatdawkvah, BAWIPA ni na hawihoehnae patetlah nange lathueng vah a ban sak han.
45 But king Solomon shall be blessed, and the throne of David shall be established before Jehovah forever.
Hatei, siangpahrang Solomon teh yawhawi e lah ao vaiteh, Devit bawitungkhung teh BAWIPA hmalah yungyoe caksak lah ao han telah atipouh.
46 So the king commanded Benaiah the son of Jehoiada. And he went out, and fell upon him so that he died. And the kingdom was established in the hand of Solomon.
Hat toteh, siangpahrang ni Jehoiada capa Benaiah koe kâ a poe teh a thei. Hat toteh, uknaeram teh Solomon kut dawk a caksak.
