< Kings I 31 >

1 And the Philistines fought with Israel: and the men of Israel fled from before the Philistines, and they fall down wounded in the mountain in Gelbue.
Philisti loh Israel a vathoh thil tih, Israel hlang hlang rhoek tah Philisti mikhmuh lamloh rhaelrham uh. Te vaengah Gilboa tlang ah a rhok la cungku uh.
2 And the Philistines press closely on Saul and his sons, and the Philistines strike Jonathan, and Aminadab, and Melchisa son of Saul.
Te vaengah Saul neh anih ca rhoek te Philisti loh meh a duep uh tih Saul ca rhoek Jonathan, Abinadab neh Malkhishua te Philisti loh a ngawn pah.
3 And the battle prevails against Saul, and the shooters with arrows, even the archers find him, and he was wounded under the ribs.
Saul taengah caemrhal a tlung coeng dongah hlang loh lii a kah neh anih te khoem tong uh. Te dongah lipom hma loh mat a tluek sak.
4 And Saul said to his armour-bearer, Draw your sword and pierce me through with it; lest these uncircumcised come and pierce me through, and mock me. But his armour-bearer would not, for he feared greatly: so Saul took his sword and fell upon it.
Te vaengah a hno phuei te Saul loh, “Na cunghang te phong lamtah kai n'thun mai laeh. Amih pumdul rhoek te ha pawk uh vaengah kai n'thun uh vetih m'poelyoe uh ve,” a ti nah. Tedae a hno phuei long tah bahoeng a rhih tih huem pah pawh. Te dongah Saul loh cunghang te a loh tih a bakop thil.
5 And his armour-bearer saw that Saul was dead, and he fell also himself upon his sword, and died with him.
Saul a duek te a hno phuei loh a hmuh vaengah amah khaw a cunghang dongah cungku tih duek.
6 So Saul died, and his three sons, and his armour-bearer, in that day together.
Hnin at dongah Saul neh a ca pathum, a hno phuei neh a hlang rhoek khaw rhenten boeih duek.
7 And the men of Israel who were on the other side of the valley, and those beyond Jordan, saw that the men of Israel fled, and that Saul and his sons were dead; and they leave their cities and flee: and the Philistines come and dwell in them.
Israel hlang rhoek a rhaelrham uh khaw, Saul te a pacaphung ah a duek uh te khaw, khopuei rhoek te a hnoo uh tih a rhaelrham uh dongah Philisti rhoek ha pawk uh tih a khuiah kho a sak uh khaw, tuikol rhalvang neh Jordan rhalvang kah Israel hlang rhoek loh a hmuh uh.
8 And it came to pass on the morrow that the Philistines come to strip the dead, and they find Saul and his three sons fallen on the mountains of Gelbue.
A vuen ah rhok hloem ham Philisti rhoek ha pawk uh hatah Gilboa tlang ah Saul neh a ca rhoek pathum ana cungku te a hmuh uh.
9 And they turned him, and stripped off his armour, and sent it into the land of the Philistines, sending round glad tidings to their idols and to the people.
A lu te a tloek pa uh tih a hnopai te a pit uh. Te phoeiah amamih kah muei im neh pilnam taengah phong ham Philisti kaepvai kah kho tom la a tueih uh.
10 And they set up his armour at the temple of Astarte, and they fastened his body on the wall of Baethsam.
A hnopai te Ashtoreth im ah a khueh uh tih a rhok te Bethshan vongtung ah a hen uh.
11 And the inhabitants of Jabis Galaad hear what the Philistines did to Saul.
Philisti loh Saul a saii te Jabesh Gilead khosa rhoek a yaak.
12 And they rose up, [even] every man of might, and marched all night, and took the body of Saul and the body of Jonathan his son from the wall of Baethsam; and they bring them to Jabis, and burn them there.
Te dongah tatthai hlang boeih loh thoo uh tih khoyin khing ah cet uh. Bethshan vongtung lamkah Saul rhok neh a ca rhoek kah rhok te a loh uh. Te phoeiah Jabesh la a khuen uh tih pahoi a tih uh.
13 And they take their bones, and bury them in the field that is in Jabis, and fast seven days.
A rhuh te a khuen uh tih Jabesh kah kolanhlaeng hmuiah a up uh tih hnin rhih a yaeh uh.
