< 1 Samuel 19 >

1 Then Saul ordered his son Jonathan and all his servants to kill David. But Jonathan delighted greatly in David,
Saul in achapa Jonathan le asohteho jouse toh David thana ding lunggel anei khompi tan ahi. Ahinlah Joanthan le David golphatah ahi lhon jeh chun,
2 so he warned David, saying, “My father Saul intends to kill you. Be on your guard in the morning; find a secret place and hide there.
Jonathn in David jah’a, “Kapan, jing jingkah le tha ding nagoi, chinghtheiyin, loulai sunga kisel nading mun khat kihol’in,” tin apa thilgon ho jouse chu aseipeh tan ahi.
3 I will go out and stand beside my father in the field where you are, so I can ask about you. And if I find out anything, I will tell you.”
“Chutengle, keiman kappa chu munchom khatna puidong ing kating, nachungchang thu kihoulimpi ing katin, kamudoh chengse chu nang kaseipeh ding nahi,” tin aseipeh kit tan ahi.
4 Then Jonathan spoke well of David to his father Saul and said to him, “The king should not sin against his servant David; he has not sinned against you. In fact, his actions have been highly beneficial to you.
Ajing jingkah in, Jonathan in David chungchang thu apa komah aphatna le athilpha boljeng aseipeh in ahi. Chule Jonathan in apa koma chun, “Lengpa chu asoh David douna-a chonse lou ding ahi chule David in nangma dounan thil imacha abolpoi, aman ajochanin aphat jousen nakithopin ahi,” ati.
5 He took his life in his hands when he struck down the Philistine, and the LORD worked a great salvation for all Israel. You saw it and rejoiced, so why would you sin against innocent blood by killing David for no reason?”
“Pathen thahatna jal'a Philistine mihatpa anatha-a Israelte dinga gal lentah eina jopeh-u phatlai chu nasuhmil hitam? Hichea thilsoh chungchanga chu nangma nana kipa dehset hilou ham? Achutia ahileh imacha bolselou, mona neilou David chu ipi bolla thading nagot ham? Ajeh imacha aumpoi!” ati.
6 Saul listened to the voice of Jonathan and swore an oath: “As surely as the LORD lives, David will not be put to death.”
Hijeh chun Saul in Jonathan thusei chu phatah’in angaijin chuin akihahsel’in, “Hingjing Pakai min pan’a kasei ahi, David chu kithat louding ahi,” ati
7 So Jonathan summoned David and told him all these things. Then Jonathan brought David to Saul to serve him as he had before.
Hiche jouchun Jonathan in David akouvin, thil ijakai asepeh tan ahi. Chule aman David chu Saul komah apuijin, amasa bangin David in leng inpi’ah na atong kit in ahi.
8 When war broke out again, David went out and fought the Philistines and struck them with such a mighty blow that they fled before him.
Chuin Philistine tetoh gal kisatna aumkit in, David in asepaite akipuijin Philistine tetoh akisat in, amaho nasatah in athat-in ahile, amaho ajam tauve.
9 But as Saul was sitting in his house with his spear in his hand, a spirit of distress from the LORD came upon him. While David was playing the harp,
Ahinlah nikhat hi Saul in’ah atouvin tengcha akhut ah akichoijin ahile, Pathen a kona hungkon lhagao dihlou chun hetman louvin achungah ahung chu kit’in ahile, David in angai bangin semjang asailaitah in,
10 Saul tried to pin him to the wall with his spear. But the spear struck the wall and David eluded him, ran away, and escaped that night.
Saul in David chu atengcha choiya chun akhoa, bangtoh khobeh ding agotna ahile, David ana ki-otdoh in, atengcha chun bang ah akibut lut jeng in, hiche jan chun David akiseldoh tan ahi.
11 Then Saul sent messengers to David’s house to watch him and kill him in the morning. But David’s wife Michal warned him, “If you do not run for your life tonight, tomorrow you will be dead!”
Chuin Saul in David ain-langa avelhi ding in asepaite asollin ahi. Asepaite jah’ah, ajing jingkah teng aina kona ahung potdoh tengle natha dingu ahi, tin thu apen ahi. Ahinlah ainneipi Michal in David jah’a, “Tujana nakiseldoh louva ahileh, jing jingkah leh nathi ding ahitai,” ati.
12 So Michal lowered David from the window, and he ran away and escaped.
Chuin ainneipi Michal in kotcha neo langa kon in akhai lhan, ajamdoh in, ahoi dohtai.
13 Then Michal took a household idol and laid it in the bed, placed some goat hair on its head, and covered it with a garment.
Hichun amanun milim khat alan, alupna ah ponsa khat asil peh’in, asam ding in kelcha mul asem peh in ahi.
14 When Saul sent the messengers to seize David, Michal said, “He is ill.”
Chuin sottol le ho ahung uva David matding agot uleh, ainneipin adam hih in athou joupoi tin alep in ahi.
15 But Saul sent the messengers back to see David and told them, “Bring him up to me in his bed so I can kill him.”
Ahinlah Saul in asottol leho jah’a thu apen, “Alupna a konin hinkaidoh un, kathading ahi,” atin ahi.
16 And when the messengers entered, there was the idol in the bed with the quilt of goats’ hair on its head.
Ahin alupna-a kona kaidoh ding agot uva aponsil chu agah hodoh uva ahileh, milim kisemthu, alua kelchamul chu amudoh tauve.
17 And Saul said to Michal, “Why did you deceive me like this? You sent my enemy away and he has escaped!” Michal replied, “He said to me, ‘Help me get away, or I will kill you!’”
Hijeh chun Saul in Michal jah’a, “Ipibolla hitia hi nei joulhep’a, kagalmi keija kona najamdoh sah ham?” atin ahile, Michal in jong, “Aman neikithopi louva ahileh katha ding nahi eitijeh’a kabol ahi,” tin ana donbut in ahi.
18 So David ran away and escaped. And he went to Samuel at Ramah and told him all that Saul had done to him. Then he and Samuel went to Naioth and stayed there.
David ajamdoh in Ramah khopi’ah achen Samuel to akimuto lhonin, chule Saul in achunga itobang tah’a na atoh ham ti aseipeh tan ahi. Samuel in David akilhonpin Ramah gamsunga Naioth mun’ah acheng tan ahi.
19 When Saul was told that David was at Naioth in Ramah,
David Ramah gamsunga Naioth muna aume ti thulhut Saul’in ana jatan ahi.
20 he sent messengers to capture him. But when they saw the group of prophets prophesying, with Samuel leading them, the Spirit of God came upon them, and Saul’s messengers also began to prophesy.
Hichun aman David manding in sottol-le ho asoltan ahi. Ahinlah amaho agalhun phat’un, Samuel lamkaina a themgao phabep in gaothu asei pet’u atohkha uvin, Saul sottol leho chu Pathen lhagao chung uvah ahung chun, amahon jong gaothu aseipan tauvin ahi.
21 When this was reported to Saul, he sent more messengers, but they began to prophesy as well. So Saul tried again and sent messengers a third time, and even they began to prophesy.
Chuin Saul in hichu ajahdoh kit phat’in, sottol dangho asolkit in ahileh, amahon jong gaothu aseiden kit tauvin ahi. Athumvei chan nan jong angai ngai ahiuve.
22 Finally, Saul himself left for Ramah and came to the large cistern at Secu, where he asked, “Where are Samuel and David?” “At Naioth in Ramah,” he was told.
Chuphat’in, Saul amatah Ramah kho jonin achetai, Secu’a um twikul lentah phung ahin phah in, “Samuel le David hoiya um lhon em?” tin adongin ahile, “Ramah gam'a Naioth mun ah aum lhone,” tin mi koiham khat in ahin donbut in ahi.
23 So Saul went to Naioth in Ramah. But the Spirit of God came upon even Saul, and he walked along prophesying until he came to Naioth in Ramah.
Ahin Ramah gam'a Naioth ajot chun, lampi’ah Pathen lhagao Saul chungah ahung chun, Naioth alhun kahsen gaothu aseiyin ahi.
24 Then Saul stripped off his robes and also prophesied before Samuel. And he collapsed and lay naked all that day and night. That is why it is said, “Is Saul also among the prophets?”
Saul in apon abotkeh in, akeochang in tollhang ah alumin, Samuel angsung’ah sun nilhum jan khovah in gaothu asei in ahi. Chuin mihon aveuvin, adatmouvin, “Iti dana, Saul jeng jong themgao lah’a jao hitam?” atiuvin ahi.
