Kings II 13
1 And it happened after this that Abessalom the son of David had a very beautiful sister, and her name [was] Themar; and Amnon the son of David loved her.
Devit e capa Absalom ni a tawncanu a meikahawi poung e buet touh a tawn. A min teh Tamar doeh. Devit e a capa Amnon ni ahni hah a ngai.
2 And Amnon was distressed even to sickness, because of Themar his sister; for she was a virgin, and it seemed very difficult for Amnon to do anything to her.
Amnon teh Tamar a ngai lawi a takpatawkhai. Ahni teh tanglakacuem doeh. Ahni koevah bangpatet e hno a sak e hai Amnon hanelah coung thai hoeh.
3 And Amnon had a friend, and his name [was] Jonadab, the son of Samaa the brother of David: and Jonadab [was] a very cunning man.
Hatei, Amnon ni hui a tawn, a min teh Jonadab doeh. Ahni teh Devit e hmau Shimeah capa doeh. Jonadab teh huenghai kaawm e lah ao.
4 And he said to him, What ails thee that thou art thus weak? O son of the king, morning by morning? wilt thou not tell me? and Ammon said, I love Themar the sister of my brother Abessalom.
Nang teh siangpahrang e capa lah na o eiteh, hnin touh hnukkhu hnin touh bangkongmaw na kamsoe. Kai koe na dei ngai han na ou telah atipouh. Amnon ni ka nawngha Absalom e a tawncanu Tamar ka lungpataw lawi doeh telah atipouh.
5 And Jonadab said to him, Lie upon thy bed, and make thyself sick, and thy father shall come in to see thee; and thou shalt say to him, Let, I pray thee, Themar my sister come, and feed me with morsels, and let her prepare food before my eyes, that I may see and eat at her hands.
Jonadab ni vah, na ikhun dawk ka pataw lah kâsak loe. Na pa ni na khet navah, ka tawncanu kai koe tho naseh. Vaiyei ka ca hane na poe naseh. Ahni ni a thawng e cakawi kai ni ka hmu vaiteh, a kut dawk e ka ca hanelah ka hmalah thawng naseh na ti pouh han telah pouknae a poe.
6 So Ammon lay down, and made himself sick; and the king came in to see him: and Amnon said to the king, Let, I pray thee, my sister Themar come to me, and make a couple of cakes in my sight, and I will eat them at her hand.
Amnon teh pataw lah a kâsak teh a yan. Siangpahrang ni a khet navah Amnon ni siangpahrang koevah, pahren lahoi ka tawncanu hi tho sak nateh ka hmaitung vah vaiyei a phen kahni tabang na sak pouh seh, a kut dawk e ka ca han telah atipouh.
7 And David sent to Themar to the house, saying, Go now to thy brother's house, and dress him food.
Devit ni Tamar koevah, na thangroi Amnon im vah cet nateh, ca hane kawi thawng pouh telah tami a patoun.
8 And Themar went to the house of her brother Amnon, and he [was] lying down: and she took the dough and kneaded it, and made cakes in his sight, and baked the cakes.
Tamar teh Amnon im a cei. Ahni teh ikhun dawk a yan. A kanawk e vaiyei hah a hmaitung vah a karê.
9 And she took the frying pan and poured them out before him, but he would not eat. And Amnon said, Send out every man from about me. And they removed every man from about him.
Ailo dawk hoi a sin teh a hmalah a pâtoum pouh. Hatei cat pouh ngai hoeh. Amnon ni taminaw be tâcawt sak ei telah ati dawkvah taminaw teh a tâco awh.
10 And Amnon said to Themar, Bring in the food into the closet, and I will eat of thy hand. And Themar took the cakes which she had made, and brought them to her brother Amnon into the chamber.
Amnon ni Tamar koevah, na kut dawk e ka ca hanelah ikhun koe thokhai telah atipouh. Tamar ni vaiyei phen a sin teh a thangroi Amnon e irakhan thung a ceikhai.
11 And she brought [them] to him to eat, and he caught hold of her, and said to her, Come, lie with me, my sister.
Amnon ca hanelah a sin pouh navah a kut a kuet pouh teh ka tawncanu kai hoi ip roi sei atipouh.
12 And she said to him, Nay, my brother, do not humble me, for it ought not to be so done in Israel; do not this folly.
Tamar ni telah nahoeh ka thangroi, kai hah na pacekpahlek hanh. Isarel miphun dawk het patet e hno sak kawi nahoeh. Kahawihoeh e hno sak hanh.
13 And I, whither shall I remove my reproach? and thou shalt be as one of the fools in Israel. And now, speak, I pray thee, to the king, for surely he will not keep me from thee.
Na sak pawiteh kayanae koehoi bangtelamaw hlout thai han vaw. Nang hai Isarel miphunnaw dawk tamipathu lah doeh na awm ti. Hatdawkvah, siangpahrang koe dei pouh. Kangek mahoeh mue telah atipouh.
14 But Amnon would not hearken to her voice; and he prevailed against her, and humbled her, and lay with her.
Hatei, ahni ni a lawk ngai pouh hoeh, a tawncanu hlak a tha ao dawkvah a tapam teh a ikhai.
15 Then Amnon hated her with very great hatred; for the hatred with which he hated her was greater than the love with which he had loved her, for the last wickedness was greater than the first: and Amnon said to her, Rise, and be gone.
Hahoi, Amnon ni a tawncanu hah bout a hmuhma, ahmaloe a lungpatawnae hlak a hmuhmanae hoe a len. Amnon ni thaw nateh cet leih atipouh.
16 And Themar spoke to him concerning this great mischief, greater, [said she], than the other that thou didst me, to send me away: but Amnon would not hearken to her voice.
A tawncanu ni vah telah nahoeh. Het patetlah hrumhram na hrek e kai na yonkhai e hlak atu na hrek e doeh yonnae hoe kalen telah ati. Ammon ni noutna pouh hoeh.
17 And he called his servant who had charge of the house, and said to him, Put now this [woman] out from me, and shut the door after her.
A san buet touh a kaw teh, hete napui heh pâlei leih. Tho taren sin haw atipouh.
18 And she had on her a variegated robe, for so were the king's daughters that were virgins attired in their apparel: and his servant led her forth, and shut the door after her.
Tanglakacuem siangpahrang canu ni ouk a khohna e patetlah a em kaawm e angkidung a kho. A san ni a hrek teh tho king a taren sin.
19 And Themar took ashes, and put them on her head; and she rent the variegated garment that was upon her: and she laid her hands on her head, and went crying continually.
Tamar ni hraba a kâphuen teh a hni ka dung a em kaawm e koung a phi. A lû dawk a kut a toung teh a cei laihoi pueng hoi a khuika.
20 And Abessalom her brother said to her, Has thy brother Amnon been with thee? now then, my sister, be silent, for he is thy brother: be not careful to mention this matter. So Themar dwelt as a widow in the house of her brother Abessalom.
A thangroi Absalom ni, na hmau Amnon ni na pacekpahlek na maw. Lawkkamuem lah awmh. Ahni teh na thangroi doeh. Hete hni heh na lungthung vah thouk pouk hanh, telah atipouh. Hottelah Tamar teh a thangroi Absalom im vah, oru laihoi ao.
21 And king David heard of all these things, and was very angry; but he did not grieve the spirit of his son Amnon, because be loved him, for he was his first-born.
Hateiteh, siangpahrang Devit niteh, hote hno a thai navah, a lung puenghoi a khuek.
22 And Abessalom spoke not to Amnon, good or bad, because Abessalom hated Amnon, on account of his humbling his sister Themar.
Absalom ni a hmaunawngha Amnon koe banghai dei hane ngai hoeh. A tawncanu a pacekpahlek dawkvah, Absalom ni Amnon a maithoe.
23 And it came to pass at the end of two whole years, that they were shearing [sheep] for Abessalom in Belasor near Ephraim: and Abessalom invited all the king's sons.
Kum hni touh a kuep hnukkhu Absalom teh Ephraim kho teng Baalhazor kho hoi, tu muen ngaw saknae pawi koe siangpahrang e canaw pueng a coun.
24 And Abessalom came to the king, and said, Behold, thy servant has a sheep-shearing; let now the king and his servants go with thy servant.
Absalom teh siangpahrang koe a cei teh, na san ni tu muen a ngaw pouh. Na sannaw kaw nateh, ka sannaw koe nama hoi rei cet awh telah atipouh.
25 And the king said to Abessalom, Nay, my son, let us not all go, and let us not be burdensome to thee. And he pressed him; but he would not go, but blessed him.
Siangpahrang ni Absalom koevah, telah nahoeh, ka capa abuemlahoi he ka cet awh mahoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, hmuenri phu lah awm payon vaih telah ati. Absalom ni a coun eiteh, cet ngai hoeh. Yawhawinae hah a poe.
26 And Abessalom said to him, And if not, let I pray thee, my brother Amnon go with us. And the king said to him, Why should he go with thee?
Absalom ni hottelah pawiteh, ka nawngha Amnon hateh kaimouh koe tho van seh telah atipouh navah, siangpahrang ni bangkongmaw khuet a cei han telah atipouh.
27 And Abessalom pressed him, and he sent with him Amnon and all the king's sons; and Abessalom made a banquet like the banquet of the king.
Hateiteh, Absalom ni Amnon hoi siangpahrang e a canaw hah cei hanelah bout a coun.
28 And Abessalom charged his servants, saying, Mark when the heart of Amnon shall be merry with wine, and I shall say to you, Smite Amnon, and slay him: fear not; for is it not I that command you? Be courageous, and be valiant.
Absalom ni a sannaw hah khenhaw! Amnon teh misurtui nei hoi a nawm lahun navah, Amnon hah thet awh ka ti navah na thei awh han. Taket awh hanh. Kâ na poe awh toe nahoehmaw. Tarankahawilah awm awh telah lawk a thui.
29 And the servants of Abessalom did to Amnon as Abessalom commanded them: and all the sons of the king rose up, and they mounted every man his mule, and fled.
Hottelah Absalom e a sannaw ni Amnon dawk Absalom ni kâ a poe e patetlah a sak awh. Siangpahrang e a canaw a thaw awh teh amamae la dawk lengkaleng a kâcui awh teh a yawng awh.
30 And it came to pass, when they were in the way, that a report came to David, saying, Abessalom has slain all the king's sons, and there is not one of them left.
Ahnimanaw a pha hoehnahlan, aloukenaw a tho awh teh, Absalom ni, siangpahrang e a canaw he a thei toe, buet touh hai hlung hoeh telah Devit koe a thaisak awh.
31 Then the king arose, and rent his garments, and lay upon the ground: and all his servants that were standing round him rent their garments.
Siangpahrang ni a thaw teh, a hni hah a ravei teh talai dawk a kamlei. A sannaw ni hai a hni a ravei awh teh a teng vah a kangdue awh.
32 And Jonadab the son of Samaa brother of David, answered and said, Let not my Lord the king say that he has slain all the young men the sons of the king, for Amnon only of them all is dead; for he was appointed [to death] by the mouth of Abessalom from the day that he humbled his sister Themar.
Devit e a hmau Shimeah capa Jonadab ni, ka bawipa ni siangpahrang e a canaw heh a thei tie yuem hanh naseh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, kadout e teh Amnon dueng doeh. A tawncanu Tamar pacekpahleknae koehoi hete hno heh Absalom ni kâ a poe e patetlah sut pouk e lah ao toe.
33 And now let not my lord the king take the matter to heart, saying, All the king's sons are dead: for Amnon only of them is dead.
Hatdawkvah, ka bawipa siangpahrang e a canaw heh a due telah pouk hanh naseh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, kadout e teh Amnon dueng doeh telah a ti.
34 And Abessalom escaped: and the young man the watchman, lifted up his eyes, and looked; and, behold, much people went in the way behind him from the side of the mountain in the descent: and the watchman came and told the king, and said, I have seen men by the way of Oronen, by the side of the mountain.
Absalom teh a yawng. Ramveng ni a radoung teh a khet nah, ahnie a hnuklah monhlep lae lam dawk ka cet e tami moikapap a hmu.
35 And Jonadab said to the king, Behold, the king's sons are present: according to the word of thy servant, so has it happened.
Jonadab ni siangpahrang capanaw a tho toe, na san ni a dei e patetlah doeh ao telah atipouh.
36 And it came to pass when he had finished speaking, that, behold, the king's sons came, and lifted up their voices and wept: and the king also and all his servants wept with a very great weeping.
Siangpahrang e a canaw teh a tho awh teh kacaipounglah a ka awh. Siangpahrang hai a sannaw hoi kacaipoung a khuika awh.
37 But Abessalom fled, and went to Tholmi son of Emiud the king of Gedsur to the land of Chamaachad: and king David mourned for his son continually.
Hatei Absalom a yawng teh Geshur siangpahrang Ammihud capa Talmai koelah a cei. Devit ni hnintangkuem a capa hah a khui.
38 So Abessalom fled, and departed to Gedsur, and was there three years.
Absalom teh Geshur koelah a yawng teh kum thum touh hawvah ao.
39 And king David ceased to go out after Abessalom, for he was comforted concerning Amnon, touching his death.
Hahoi siangpahrang Devit ni Absalom koe cei hanelah dikdik a doun. Amnon due e dawk te, a lung yo a kâpahawi toe.
