< Kings III 13 >

1 And behold, there came a man of God out of Juda by the word of the Lord to Baethel, and Jeroboam stood at the altar to sacrifice.
Pakai thupeh dungjuiyin, Pathen mikhat Judahh akonin Bethel’ah ahungin, Jeroboam in maicham ajot’a gimnamtui hal ding agah got laitah’in aga lhung in ahi.
2 And he cried against the altar by the word of the Lord, and said, O altar, altar, thus saith the Lord, Behold, a son is [to be] born to the house of David, Josias by name; and he shall offer upon thee the priests of the high places, [even] of them that sacrifice upon thee, and [he] shall burn men's bones upon thee.
Hichun Pakai thupeh dungjuiyin, ahung apengjah jengin, “Vo maicham maicham! Pakaiyin hitin aseiye, ‘David chilhah lah’a Josiah kiti khat hung peng ding ahi. Amahin tua cheptan loute maicham a lhacha’a pang ji ho, nachunga kilhaina gan thatji thempu ho hi nangma chunga athagam ding chule na chung ahi mihem gule chang hung kilhut vam ding ahi, tin ahung seije,” ati.
3 And in that day one shall give a sign, saying, This [is] the word which the Lord has spoken, saying, Behold, the altar is rent, and the fatness upon it shall be poured out.
Hiche nikho mama chun Pathen in a Thupeh adih ahi hetthei nan, melchihna khat apen ahi. Aman ajah’a, “Pakaiyin hiche melchihna hi pe dingin kitepna aneije; hiche maicham hi kehni hung kiso ding chule avut vam ho chu tol’a hung kithe lha ding ahi,” ati.
4 And it came to pass when king Jeroboam heard the words of the man of God who called on the altar that was in Baethel, that the king stretched forth his hand from the altar, saying, Take hold of him. And, behold, his hand, which he stretched forth against him, withered, and he could not draw it back to himself.
Jeroboam Lengpan Bethel maicham douna hung kisei chu ajah phat in, themgaopa chu akoh-in, “Hiche pachu man un!” tin ahinsam tan ahi. Ahinlah hiche pettah chun Lengpa khut chu ahung ngoijin adingden tan, anung lahdoh jou tapon ahi.
5 And the altar was rent, and the fatness was poured out from the altar, according to the sign which the man of God gave by the word of the Lord.
Hiche pettah chun maicham chu ahung lengkeh jengin, Pathen mipan aseibang bangin maicham sunga kon chun vutvam jouse chu ahung kibo lhan ahi.
6 And king Jeroboam said to the man of God, Intreat the Lord thy God, and let my hand be restored to me. And the man of God intreated the Lord, and he restored the king's hand to him, and it became as before.
Lengpa chu Pathen mipa kom’a hung peng jah jengin, “Pakai na Pathen heng’a ka khut adamthei na dingin nei taopeh tan,” ati. Hichun Pathen mipa chu Pakai kom’a atao tan ahile Lengpa khut chu adamhel jengin achat le theitan ahi.
7 And the king said to the man of God, Enter with me into the house, and dine, and I will give thee a gift.
Hichun Lengpan Pathen mipa kom a chun, “Hungin ka in lang’a che hi tin, an hung nen lang kipa thilpeh jong nape ing’e,” ati.
8 And the man of God said to the king, If thou shouldest give me the half of thine house, I would not go in with thee, neither will I eat bread, neither will I drink water in this place; for thus the Lord charged me by [his] word, saying,
Pathen mipan Lengpa kom achun, “Na lenggam akeh khat neipeh ding hi jong leh nang toh kilhon khom pong’e, keiman hiche mun’a hi nehle chah kahol lou ding ahi,
9 Eat no bread, and drink no water, and return not by the way by which thou camest.
Ajeh chu Pakai Pathen in, nangman hiche munna naum laisea neh le chah nahol lou ding chuleh hiche lampi mama a hi Judah gam mun na hung kile kit ding ahi, tin athupeh einei jin ahi,” ati.
10 So he departed by another way, and returned not by the way by which he came to Baethel.
Hijeh chun aman Bethel adalhan lam chom aho in ainlang ajon tan ahi.
11 And there dwelt an old prophet in Baethel; and his sons came and told him all the works that the man of God did on that day in Baethel, and the words which he spoke to the king: and they turned the face of their father.
Hichepet hin Bethel muna chun themgao tehse khat ana cheng in, chuin achapate chu ainmun’u ahunglhun phat in, Bethel a Pathen mipan athilbol ho chu ana seipeh tan ahi. Chuleh hiche Lengpa kom’a a thusei ho jong chu a seipeh un ahi.
12 And their father spoke to them, saying, Which way went he? and his sons shew him the way by which the man of God who came out of Juda went up.
Hichun tehsepu chun, “Hoilang che tantem?” tin adong in ahi leh, amahon Pathen mipan hoiche lang pen aho ham tichu apao chu ana seipeh un ahi.
13 And he said to his sons, Saddle me the ass: and they saddled him the ass, and he mounted it,
Tehsepu chun achate kom ah, “Gangtah in sangan chung’a chun toupha nei koi loiyun,” atinle, achaten sangan chunga chu toupha chu akoi peh un, ama jong atou doh in,
14 and went after the man of God, and found him sitting under an oak: and he said to him, Art thou the man of God that came out of Juda? And he said to him, I [am].
Pathen mipa chu adeltan ahileh, ama chu thingphung lentah khat noija chun ana tou agamudoh in ahi. Tehsepun, “Judah gam’a kona hung Pathen mipa chu na him?” atileh aman jong, “Henge ama chu ka hi naiye,” ati.
15 And he said to him, Come with me, and eat bread.
Hichun aman Pathen mipa koma chun, “Hung in ka in ah bu hung nen,” ati.
16 And he said, I shall not by any means be able to return with thee, neither will I eat bread, neither will I drink water in this place.
Aman a donbut in, “Ahipoi kei hung thei pong’e, keima hiche mun’a hi anneh tuidon bol thei pong’e,
17 For thus the Lord commanded me by word, saying, Eat not bread there, and drink not water, and return not thither by the way by which thou camest.
Ajeh chu Pakaiyin hiche munna naum laisen anneh tuidon nabol lou ding ahi, chu leh na hungna lampi hi mang cha a nahung kile theilou ding ahi, tin ei sei peh in ahi,” ati.
18 And he said to him, I also am a prophet as thou [art]; and an angel spoke to me by the word of the Lord, saying, Bring him back to thee into thy house, and let him eat bread and drink water: but he lied to him.
Ahin tehsepun adonbut in, “Kei jong themgao khat kahi, Pakaiya konin vantil khat in hiche thupeh hi ei hinpen, ama chu na in’a pui inlang an nehsah in tui donsah in eiti,” ati. Amavang tehsepu chun ajou asei ahi.
19 And he brought him back, and he ate bread and drank water in his house.
Hiti chun akinungle lhontan, Pathen mipan tehsepu in achun an anen, tui adon tan ahi.
20 And it came to pass while they were sitting at the table, that the word of the Lord came to the prophet that brought him back;
Hitia chu amani atou khompet lhon chun Pakaija konin Themgao tehsepu kom achun thupeh khat ahung lhung tan ahile,
21 and he spoke to the man of God that came out of Juda, saying, Thus saith the Lord, Because thou hast resisted the word of the Lord, and hast not kept the commandment which the Lord thy God commanded thee,
Ama jong Judahh a kona hung Pathen mipa koma chun apeng jah in, “Nangin Pakai thupeh chu na sukeh’in, Pakai na Pathen in thu napeh dungjui jin na chon tapoi.
22 but hast returned, and eaten bread and drunk water in the place of which he spoke to thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat bread, and shalt not drink water; [therefore] thy body shall in nowise enter into the sepulchre of thy fathers.
Hilai munna na hung kilen, na nen, na don in, ne hih in don hih in kati chu na sumil tai. Hiti ahiyeh chun, natahsa hi napu napate lupna a kivuilou ding ahitai,” ati.
23 And it came to pass after he had eaten bread and drunk water, that he saddled the ass for him, and he turned and departed.
Pathen mipan aneh a adon jouvin Themgao tehsepu chun ama sangan chunga chun toupha apha dohpeh in,
24 And a lion found him in the way, and slew him; and his body was cast out in the way, and the ass was standing by it, and the lion [also] was standing by the body.
Hichun Pathen mipa chu akipatdoh tan ahi. Hitia chu inlam jona ache laitah in, humpi khat atoh khan athat tan ahi. Atahsa chu lamlen chung ah akijamin, sangan le humpi chu ana ding khom lhonin ahi.
25 And, behold, men [were] passing by, and saw the carcase cast in the way, and the lion was standing near the carcase: and they went in and spoke [of it] in the city where the old prophet dwelt.
Mi phabep in along lampia kijam le akoma sakei ding atoh khauvin, hichun Themgao tehsepu umna Bethel geiyin acheuvin athilmu u chu aga seipeh tauve.
26 And [the prophet] that turned him back out of the way heard, and said, This is the man of God who rebelled against the word of the Lord.
Themgao tehsepu chun athu ajahdoh phat’in, “Hiche Pathen mipa hin, Pathen thupeh anit lou ahin, Pakaiyin keipi chu athasah’a athusei chu asuh bulhit ahi tai,” atin ahi.
27 [And he spoke to his sons, saying, Saddle me the ass, and they saddled it. ]
Themgaopa luipan chun achate kom’ah, “Sangan chung’a chun toupha hin koijun,” atin, ahin koipeh phat un,
28 And he went and found the body cast in the way, and the ass and the lion were standing by the body: and the lion had not devoured the body of the man of God, and had not torn the ass.
Ama ache in, atahsa lamlen chunga lum chu agamu’n, a sangan leh humpi akom’a ana din nah lai vang'in, humpi chun ana nedeh pon chule Sangan jong chu ima ana tipon ahi.
29 And the prophet took up the body of the man of God, and laid it on his ass; and the prophet brought him back to his city, to bury him in his own tomb,
Themgaopa chun Pathen mipa tahsa chu a sangan chung’a chun akoijin, khopi lang a chun along op dingin ahin pon ahi.
30 and they bewailed him, [saying], Alas, brother.
Aman lhan’ah avui in, lhase tah in akap in “Vo ka sopipa,” atin ahi.
31 And it came to pass after he had lamented him, that he spoke to his sons, saying, Whenever I die, bury me in this tomb wherein the man of God is buried; lay me by his bones, that my bones may be preserved with his bones.
Hichejou chun Themgao pa chun achate kom’ah, “Keima ka thi teng leh Pathen mipa kivuina lhan ah hin nei hin vui uvin lang, kagu hi ama gu panga hin lupsah un,” ati.
32 For the word will surely come to pass which he spoke by the word of the Lord against the altar in Baethel, and against the high houses in Samaria.
“Ajeh chu Pakaiyin Samaria khopi sung’a khopi holah a ki semdoh semthu pathen houna maicham leh Bethel maicham douna Pakaiyin ana phondohsa chu guilhung tei ding hija ahi,” ati.
33 And after this Jeroboam turned not from his sin, but he turned and made of part of the people priests of the [high places]: whoever would, he consecrated him, and he became a priest for the high places.
Ahivang in hitobang thilsoh nung jengin jong, Jeroboam in athilse bolna a konin akihei mangdeh pon ahi. Aman milham lah a konin Thempu ana lheng jing nalaiyin ahi. Semthu pathen houna doiphung’a thempu dingin apang nom jouse anapan sah jengin ahi.
34 And this thing became sin to the house of Jeroboam, even to its destruction and its removal from the face of the earth.
Hiche hi chonset nasatah ahung hitan chule Jeroboam chilhah ho leiset chunga konin suhmang in aumlo tan ahi.
