Kings I 29
1 And the Philistines gather all their armies to Aphec, and Israel encamped in Aendor, which is in Jezrael.
Philisti loh a caem boeih te Aphek ah a coi uh tih, Israel rhoek khaw Jezreel tuiphuet ah rhaeh uh.
2 And the lords of the Philistines went on by hundreds and thousands, and David and his men went on in the rear with Anchus.
Philisti boei rhoek tah yakhat nen khaw thawngkhat nen khaw kat uh dae David tah a hael ah a hlang rhoek neh Akhish neh kat uh.
3 And the lords of the Philistines said, Who [are] these that pass by? And Anchus said to the captains of the Philistines, [Is] not this David the servant of Saul king of Israel? He has been with us some time, even this second year, and I have not found any fault in him from the day that he attached himself to me even until this day.
Te vaengah Philisti mangpa rhoek loh, “Hebrew rhoek te banim ca? a ti uh. Te dongah Philisti mangpa rhoek te Akhish loh, “Te te Israel manghai Saul kah sal David moenih a? Anih te kai taengah a kum la a hnin la om coeng ta. A koep hnin lamkah tihnin hil a lolh pakhat khaw anih pum dongah ka hmuh moenih,” a ti nah.
4 And the captains of the Philistines were displeased at him, and they say to him, Send the man away, and let him return to his place, where thou didst set him; and let him not come with us to the war, and let him not be a traitor in the camp: and wherewith will he be reconciled to his master? Will it not be with the heads of those men?
Tedae Philisti mangpa rhoek te anih taengah a thintoek uh. Te dongah amah vik te Philisti mangpa rhoek loh, “Tekah hlang te mael sak lamtah amah na hlah nah hmuen la bal saeh. Mamih neh caemtloek la ha suntla boel saeh. Caemtloek vaengah mamih taengah khingkhoekkung la om mahpawt nim? Ba nen lae a boei rhoek te a moeithen eh? Amih hlang rhoek kah a lu moenih a?
5 [Is] not this David whom they celebrated in dances, saying, Saul has smitten his thousands, and David his ten thousands?
Anih te David moenih a? Anih te lam neh a doo uh tih, 'Saul loh thawngkhat, David loh thawngrha, thawngrha a ngawn coeng,’ a ti ta,” a ti uh.
6 And Anchus called David, and said to him, [As] the Lord lives, thou [art] right and approved in my eyes, and [so is] thy going out and thy coming in with me in the army, and I have not found [any] evil to charge against thee from the day that thou camest to me until this day: but thou art not approved in the eyes of the lords.
Akhish loh David te a khue tih, “BOEIPA kah hingnah dongah na thuem coeng. Na pongthoh khaw ka mikhmuh ah then tih rhaehhmuen ah khaw kamah taengah na pongpa mako. Kai taengla na pawk hnin lamloh tihnin due nang soah boethae ka hmuh moenih. Tedae boei rhoek kah mik dongah tah na then moenih.
7 Now then return and go in peace, thus thou shalt not do evil in the sight of the lords of the Philistines.
Te dongah mael lamtah ngaimong la cet mai laeh. Philisti boei rhoek kah mikhmuh ah boethae saii boel mai,” a ti nah.
8 And David said to Anchus, What have I done to thee? and what hast thou found in thy servant from the [first] day that I was before thee even until this day, that I should not come and war against the enemies of the lord my king?
David loh Akhish te, “Tedae balae ka saii tih na mikhmuh ah ka om khohnin lamloh tahae khohnin duela na sal pum dongah balae na hmuh coeng. Ka boei thunkha manghai pataeng ka paan tih ka vathoh thil moenih,” a ti nah.
9 And Anchus answered David, I know that thou [art] good in my eyes, but the lords of the Philistines say, He shall not come with us to the war.
Te dongah David te Akhish loh a doo tih, “Pathen puencawn bangla ka mikhmuh ah na then te ka ming dae Philisti mangpa rhoek long tah, “Caemtloek khuiah kaimih neh pongpa boel saeh,” a ti uh.
10 Now then rise up early in the morning, thou and the servants of thy lord that are come with thee, and go to the place where I appointed you, and entertain no evil thought in thy heart, for thou [art] good in my sight: and rise early for your journey when it is light, and depart.
Te dongah namah neh naka pawk hmaih na boeipa kah sal rhoek neh mincang ah thoo uh. Mincang ah na thoo uh vetih kho a tueng neh pahoi na cet mako,” a ti nah.
11 So David arose early, he and his men, to depart and guard the land of the Philistines: and the Philistines went up to Jezrael to battle.
Te dongah David amah neh a hlang rhoek tah mincang ah caeh hamla thoo coeng tih Philisti kho la mael. Tedae Philisti rhoek tah Jezreel la cet uh.
