1 Samuel 22
1 So David went away from there and took cover in a strong place at Adullam; and his brothers and all his father's people, hearing of it, went down to him there.
Gath lamkah loh David cet tih Adullam lungko la a poeng a hal. Te vaengah a manuca rhoek neh a napa imkhui loh boeih a yaak uh tih anih taeng la suntla uh.
2 And everyone who was in trouble, and everyone who was in debt, and everyone who was bitter in soul, came together to him, and he became captain over them: about four hundred men were joined to him.
Te vaengah a caeknah kah hlang boeih, David taengah lai aka ba hlang boeih, hinglu khahing hlang boeih loh anih taengla coi uh thae. Te dongah amih taengah mangpa la om tih hlang ya li tluk loh anih taengah om uh.
3 And from there David went to Mizpeh in the land of Moab: and he said to the king of Moab, Let my father and mother come and make their living-place with you till it is clear to me what God will do for me.
David tah te lamloh Moab Mizpeh la cet tih, Moab manghai taengah, “Pathen loh kai ham a saii te ka ming duela a nu neh a pa he nang taengah cu mai saeh,” a ti nah.
4 And he took them to the king of Moab and they went on living with him while David was in his safe place.
Te tlam te Moab manghai kah mikhmuh ah amih te a khuen tih rhalvong khuiah David a om tue khuiah Moab manghai neh kho a sak uh.
5 And the prophet Gad said to David, Do not go on living in this place but go into the land of Judah. Then David went away and came to the woodland of Hereth.
Tonghma Gad loh David taengah, “Rhalvong khuiah om voel boeh, cet lamtah Judah kho te namah hamla kun thil,” a ti nah. Te dongah David te cet tih Hereth duup te a paan.
6 And news was given to Saul that David had been seen, and the men who were with him: now Saul was in Gibeah, seated under the tree in the high place, with his spear in his hand, and all his servants were in their places before him.
David neh anih taengkah hlang rhoek a phoe te Saul loh a yaak. Te vaengah Saul te Gibeah thaehhing kah kolanhlaeng hmuiah ngol tih a kut dongah caai a pom. A sal rhoek long khaw anih te boeih a pai thiluh.
7 Then Saul said to his servants who were there about him, Give ear now, you Benjamites; will the son of Jesse give to every one of you fields and vine-gardens, will he make you all captains of hundreds and captains of thousands;
Saul loh amah aka pai thil a sal rhoek te, “Benjamin ca rhoek loh ya uh lah, Jesse capa loh nangmih boeih te khohmuen neh misur te m'paek aya? Nangmih te thawngkhat mangpa neh yakhat mangpa la boeih ng'khueh aya?
8 That all of you have made designs against me, and not one of you gave me word when my son made an agreement with the son of Jesse, and not one of you has pity for me or has made my eyes open to the fact that my servant has been moved by my son against me, as at this day?
Nangmih loh kai he boeih nan hlaengtang thil uh ngawn dae kai capa loh Jesse capa neh paipi a saii vaengah kai hna ah a kun moenih. Tihnin kah bangla kai he rhongngol thil ham ka capa loh ka sal a pai puei te kai ham ko aka thae tih kai hna ah aka thui khaw na om uh moenih,” a ti nah.
9 Then Doeg, the Edomite, who was by the side of the servants of Saul, in answer said, I saw the son of Jesse coming to Nob, to Ahimelech, the son of Ahitub.
Tedae Saul kah sal rhoek taengah aka pai Edom hoel Doeg loh a doo tih, “Jesse capa te ka hmuh, Nob kah Ahitub capa Ahimelek taengla pawk coeng.
10 And he got directions from the Lord for him, and gave him food, and put in his hand the sword of Goliath the Philistine.
Anih ham BOEIPA a dawt pah tih anih te lampu a paek. Te phoeiah Philisti Goliath kah cunghang te anih taengla a paek,” a ti nah.
11 Then the king sent for Ahimelech the priest, the son of Ahitub, and for all the men of his father's family who were priests in Nob: and they all came to the king.
Te dongah manghai loh Ahitub capa khosoih Ahimelek neh Nob ah khosoih aka bi a napa imkhui boeih te a tah tih a khue. Te dongah amih te manghai taengla boeih ha pawk uh.
12 And Saul said, Give ear now, O son of Ahitub. And answering he said, Here I am, my lord.
Saul loh, “Ahitub capa, hnatun lah,” a ti nah vanbangla, “Ka om he ka boeipa,” a ti nah.
13 And Saul said to him, Why have you made designs against me with the son of Jesse, giving him food and a sword and getting directions from the Lord for him, and helping him to take up arms against me, and to be on the watch to make a secret attack on me as he is doing now?
Te phoeiah anih te Saul loh, “Balae tih kai he nang neh Jesse capa loh nan hlaengtang thil tih, anih te buh neh cunghang na paek. Tihnin kah bangla kai aka pai thil tih rhongngol thil ham a anih yueng la Pathen na dawt? a ti nah.
14 Then Ahimelech answering said to the king, Who among all your servants is so true to you as David, who is the king's son-in-law, and is a captain of your armed men, and has a place of honour in your house?
Ahimelek loh manghai te a doo tih, “David bangla aka cak tih manghai cava te na sal rhoek boeih khuiah ulae aka om. Na taengom lamkah nong mai cakhaw na imkhui ah a oep uh.
15 Is this the first time I have got directions from God for him? Far be the thought! let the king make no such statement against his servant or my father's family, for your servant has no knowledge, great or small, of this thing.
Tihnin ah anih ham Pathen ka dawt he ka uem a, kai lamkah tah savisava, manghai loh a sal neh a pa cako boeih taengah olcen kama khueh boel saeh. Na sal loh hekah olka a yit a len khaw boeih a ming moenih,” a ti nah.
16 And the king said, You will certainly be put to death, Ahimelech, you and all your father's family.
Tedae manghai loh, “Ahimelek, namah khaw na pa imkhui boeih khaw na duek rhoe na duek ni,” a ti nah.
17 Then the king said to the runners who were waiting near him, Put the priests of the Lord to death; because they are on David's side, and having knowledge of his flight, did not give me word of it. But the king's servants would not put out their hands to make an attack on the Lord's priests.
Te phoeiah manghai loh a taengkah aka pai aka cungpoeh rhoek taengah, “BOEIPA kah khosoih te vael uh lamtah ngawn. Amih kut khaw David taengah nuen van tih David a yong te a ming uh lalah kai hna ah phoe puei uh pawh,” a ti nah. Tedae BOEIPA khosoih rhoek cuk thil ham neh a kut hlah thil ham tah manghai kah sal rhoek loh huem uh pawh.
18 Then the king said to Doeg, You are to put the priests to death. And Doeg the Edomite, turning on the priests and attacking them, put to death that day eighty-five men who took up the ephod.
Te vaengah manghai loh Doeg te, “Doeg nang loh vael lamtah khosoih rhoek te cuuk thil,” a ti nah. Te dongah Edom hoel Doeg loh khosoih rhoek te a vael tih a cuuk thil. Te dongah takhlawk hnisui aka vah hlang sawmrhet panga te hnin at dongah a duek sak.
19 And Nob, the town of the priests, he put to the sword, all the men and women, children and babies at the breast, and oxen and asses and sheep.
Khosoih rhoek kah khopuei Nob te khaw cunghang ha neh a ngawn tih, tongpa khaw huta, camoe, cahni khaw, vaito, laak neh tu khaw cunghang ha neh a thup.
20 And Abiathar, one of the sons of Ahimelech, the son of Ahitub, got away and went in flight after David;
Tedae Ahitub capa Ahimelek kah a capa pakhat tah loeih. Anih ming tah Abiathar tih David hnukah yong.
21 And gave him the news of how Saul had put to death the Lord's priests.
Saul loh BOEIPA kah khosoih rhoek a ngawn te Abiathar loh David taengla a puen pah.
22 And David said to Abiathar, I was certain that day, when Doeg the Edomite was there, that he would take the news to Saul: I am responsible for the lives of all your father's family.
David loh Abiathar taengah, “Edom hoel Doeg loh Saul taengah puen rhoe puen pahoi ni tila amah tekah khohnin ah ka ming, na pa imkhui kah a hinglu boeih te kai ni laikung coeng.
23 Keep here with me and have no fear; for he who has designs on my life has designs on yours: but with me you will be safe.
Kai taengah khosa lamtah kai kah hinglu han toem khaw, nang kah hinglu han toem akhaw anih te rhih boeh. Kai taengah tah na sueng coeng,” a ti nah.
