1 Samuel 24
1 And it came to pass, when Saul was returned from following the Philistines, that it was told him, saying, Behold, David is in the wilderness of En-gedi.
Filistinnaw pâleinae koehoi ka ban e ni Sawl koe Devit teh Engedi kahrawngum vah ao telah a dei pouh.
2 Then Saul took three thousand chosen men out of all Israel, and went to seek David and his men upon the rocks of the wild goats.
Hateh, Sawl ni Isarelnaw thung dawk hoi tami 3000 touh a kaw teh, a thaonae lungsong tie ram dawk Devit hoi a taminaw tawng hanelah a cei awh.
3 And he came to the sheepcotes by the way, where was a cave, and Saul went in to cover his feet. Now David and his men were abiding in the innermost parts of the cave.
Lam teng vah tutakha onae lungngoum koe a pha awh. Sawl teh vaipuen cei hanelah lungngoum thung a kâen. Devit hoi a taminaw teh hote lungngoum thung vah ao awh.
4 And the men of David said to him, Behold, the day of which Jehovah said to thee, Behold, I will deliver thine enemy into thy hand, and thou shall do to him as it shall seem good to thee. Then David arose, and cut off the skirt of Saul's robe secretly.
Devit e taminaw ni, BAWIPA ni na taran hah na kut dawk na poe han. Ahni dawk na sak ngai e patetlah saknae kâ ao han ati e teh, sahnin doeh toe atipouh awh. Hateh Devit ni a thaw teh, Sawl e angki pawi hah arulahoi duem a a pouh.
5 And it came to pass afterward, that David's heart smote him, because he had cut off Saul's skirt.
Hottelah Devit ni Sawl e angki pawi a a e dawk a lungrei a thai sak.
6 And he said to his men, Jehovah forbid that I should do this thing to my lord, Jehovah's anointed, to put forth my hand against him, since he is Jehovah's anointed.
Hahoi a taminaw koevah BAWIPA ni satui awi e doeh tie panue nahlangva hoi runae poe hanelah ka kut ka dâw teh BAWIPA ni satui awi e ka bawipa lathueng hete hno ka sak e coung thai hoeh telah ati.
7 So David restrained his men with these words, and did not allow them to rise against Saul. And Saul rose up out of the cave, and went on his way.
Hottelah hoi Devit ni a taminaw hah hote lawk lahoi a haw thai teh, Sawl thei hanelah ka cet hane naw hah pasoung hoeh. Hahoi teh Sawl haiyah lungngoum thung hoi a tâco teh a cei.
8 David also arose afterward, and went out of the cave, and cried after Saul, saying, My lord the king. And when Saul looked behind him, David bowed with his face to the earth, and did obeisance.
Hathnukkhu Devit a thaw teh, lungngoum thung hoi a tâco teh Sawl e hnuk lahoi, ka bawipa siangpahrang, telah a hram. Hahoi Sawl ni hnuk lah a kamlang teh a khet navah, Devit ni a tabut teh a minhmai talai rekkâbet lah a tabo.
9 And David said to Saul, Why do thou hearken to men's words, saying, Behold, David seeks thy hurt?
Devit ni nang runae poe hanlah a kâcai telah taminaw ni a dei e hah bangkongmaw khuet na tang vaw.
10 Behold, this day thine eyes have seen how that Jehovah had delivered thee today into my hand in the cave. And some bade me kill thee, but I spared thee. And I said, I will not put forth my hand against my lord, for he is Jehovah's anointed.
Sahnin BAWIPA ni nang hah ka kut dawk na poe e hah khenhaw! Nang thei hanelah ayânaw ni na hroecoe eiteh, kai ni na pasai teh ka bawipa teh BAWIPA ni satui awi e lah na o dawkvah, runae poe hanelah ka kut ka dâw mahoeh telah ka pouk.
11 Moreover, my father, see, yea, see the skirt of thy robe in my hand, for in that I cut off the skirt of thy robe, and killed thee not. Know thou and see that there is neither evil nor transgression in my hand, and I have not sinned against thee, though thou hunt after my life to take it.
Hothloilah apa khenhaw! na hni pawi hai ka kut dawk ao hei. Na hni pawi ka a thai e hoi na thei hoeh e ni, ka kut dawk hawihoehnae hoi tarantuknae awm hoeh tie hoi ka hringnae thei hanelah pou na tawng ei nakunghai, nang taranlahoi yonnae ka sak hoeh tie hah khoeroe pahnim hanh.
12 Jehovah judge between me and thee, and Jehovah avenge me of thee, but my hand shall not be upon thee.
BAWIPA ni kai hoi nang rahak lawkceng na seh. Hatei kai ni teh nang dawk ka kut ka tha mahoeh. Nang koe ka yonnae hah BAWIPA ni na pathung na seh.
13 As says the proverb of the ancients, Out of the wicked comes forth wickedness, but my hand shall not be upon thee.
Ayan cingthuinae dawkvah, tamikathout koehoi thoenae a tâco. Hatei, ka kut teh nang dawk phat hanh naseh.
14 After whom is the king of Israel come out? After whom do thou pursue? After a dead dog, after a flea.
Isarel siangpahrang teh api tawng hanelah maw a tho. Ui ro maw a tawng, uihli maw a tawng.
15 Jehovah therefore be judge, and give sentence between me and thee, and see, and plead my cause, and deliver me out of thy hand.
Hatdawkvah, BAWIPA teh lawkcengkung lah awm lawiseh. Kai hoi nang rahak vah lawkceng lawiseh. Na pouk pouh vaiteh, na dei pouh lawiseh. Na kut dawk hoi a ma ni na rasat lawiseh telah Sawl koe a dei pouh.
16 And it came to pass, when David had made an end of speaking these words to Saul, that Saul said, Is this thy voice, my son David? And Saul lifted up his voice, and wept.
Hottelah Devit ni Sawl koe be a dei hnukkhu, Sawl ni ka capa Devit, ka thai e lawk hah nange lawk namaw ati teh a khuika.
17 And he said to David, Thou are more righteous than I, for thou have rendered to me good, whereas I have rendered to thee evil.
Kai hlak nang te hoe na lan doeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, nang ni teh hawinae hoi na pathung teh, kai ni teh hawihoehnae hoi na pathung.
18 And thou have declared this day how that thou have dealt well with me, inasmuch as when Jehovah had delivered me up into thy hand, thou killed me not.
Kai koe hawinae bangtelamaw na sak tie sahnin na kamnue sak toe. Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA ni kai hah na kut dawk na poe ei, nang ni na thet laipalah na o toe.
19 For if a man finds his enemy, will he let him go away well? Therefore Jehovah reward thee good for that which thou have done to me this day.
Tami ni a taran hah hmawt pawiteh, duem a hlout sak han namaw. Hatei, nang ni sahnin kai koe na sak e hawinae hah BAWIPA ni na patho lawiseh.
20 And now, behold, I know that thou shall surely be king, and that the kingdom of Israel shall be established in thy hand.
Atuvah, nang teh atangcalah siangpahrang lah na o han. Isarel uknaeram hai na kut dawk a kangning han tie hah kacailah ka panue awh katang toe.
21 Swear now therefore to me by Jehovah, that thou will not cut off my seed after me, and that thou will not destroy my name out of my father's house.
Hatdawkvah, ka catounnaw hah na raphoe hoeh nahane hoi, ka imthungnaw thung hoi ka min na kahma sak hoeh nahanelah, BAWIPA min lahoi kai koe lawk kam haw atipouh.
22 And David swore to Saul. And Saul went home, but David and his men got up to the stronghold.
Hottelah Devit ni Sawl koe lawk a kam teh, Devit hoi a taminaw teh rapanim koe a cei awh.
