1 Kings 13
1 And behold, by the word of the Lord, a man of God went from Judah to Bethel, when Jeroboam was standing over the altar, and burning incense.
Pathen kah hlang he BOEIPA ol neh Judah lamloh Bethel la pakcak pawk. Te vaengah Jeroboam tah hmueih phum ham hmueihtuk taengah pai.
2 And by the word of the Lord, he cried out against the altar. And he said: “O altar, O altar! Thus says the Lord: ‘Behold, a son will be born to the house of David, Josiah by name. And upon you, he will immolate the priests of the high places, who now burn incense upon you. And upon you, he will burn up the bones of men.’”
Te vaengah BOEIPA ol lamloh hmueihtuk te a doek tih, “Hmueihtuk, hmueihtuk, BOEIPA loh he ni a thui, David imkhui ham capa pakhat, a ming ah Josiah om coeng ke. Te dongah nang soah hmueih aka phum hmuensang khosoih rhoek te nang soah a ngawn vetih hlang rhuh ni nang soah a tih eh?,” a ti nah.
3 And he gave a sign on the same day, saying: “This will be the sign that the Lord has spoken. Behold, the altar shall be torn apart, and the ashes that are upon it shall be poured out.”
Te khohnin ah kopoekrhai a paek tih, “BOEIPA loh he kah kopoekrhai he a thui, hmueihtuk he paeng tih a sokah maehhloi luk pawn ni he,” a ti nah.
4 And when the king had heard the word of the man of God, which he had cried out against the altar at Bethel, he extended his hand from the altar, saying, “Apprehend him!” But his hand, which he had extended against him, withered. And he was unable to draw it back to himself.
Bethel ah hmueihtuk aka pang thil Pathen hlang kah ol te manghai loh a yaak. Te dongah Jeroboam loh hmueihtuk dong lamloh a kut a thueng tih, “Anih ke tu uh,” a ti nah. Tedae anih taengla a kut a thueng te a koh pah tih amah taengla yuek thai voel pawh.
5 Also, the altar was torn apart, and the ashes were poured out from the altar, in accord with the sign that the man of God had predicted by the word of the Lord.
Te phoeiah BOEIPA ol lamloh Pathen hlang kah a paek kopoekrhai bangla hmueihtuk te paeng tih maehhloi khaw hmueihtuk dong lamloh luk.
6 And the king said to the man of God, “Entreat the face of the Lord your God, and pray for me, so that my hand may be restored to me.” And the man of God prayed before the face of the Lord, and the hand of the king was restored to him, and it became as it had been before.
Te daengah manghai loh a doo tih Pathen kah hlang taengah, “BOEIPA na Pathen mikhmuh ah nguek mai. Kai hamla la thangthui lamtah kai he ka kut hoeih pawn saeh,” a ti nah. Pathen kah hlang te BOEIPA mikhmuh ah a nguek daengah manghai te a kut a yueh thai tih lamhma kah thim la a om pah.
7 Then the king said to the man of God: “Come home with me, so that you may dine. And I will give you gifts.”
Manghai loh Pathen kah hlang te, “Kamah taengah im la ham paan lamtah na lungbuei duel dae, nang te kutdoe kam paek bitni,” a ti nah.
8 And the man of God responded to the king: “Even if you will give me one half part of your house, I will not go with you, nor eat bread, nor drink water in this place.
Tedae Pathen kah hlang loh manghai te, “Kai he na im rhakthuem nam pae cakhaw nang taengla ka mop mahpawh. He hmuen ah buh khaw ka ca mahpawh, tui khaw ka o mahpawh.
9 For so it was commanded to me by the word of the Lord, ordering: ‘You shall not eat bread, and you shall not drink water, nor shall you return by the way that you came.’”
BOEIPA ol loh kai n'uen tangloeng tih, 'Buh khaw ca boeh, tui khaw o boeh, na caeh long lamloh mael boeh,’ a ti,” a ti nah.
10 Then he departed by another way, and he did not return along the way that he had traveled to Bethel.
Te dongah longpuei a tloe longah cet tih Bethel la aka pawk longpuei longah mael voel pawh.
11 Now a certain elderly prophet was living in Bethel. His sons went to him, and they described to him all the works which the man of God had accomplished on that day in Bethel. And they described to their father the words that he had spoken to the king.
Te vaengah tonghma patong pakhat tah Bethel ah kho a sak. Te dongah a capa te a pawk vaengah Pathen kah hlang loh Bethel ah hnin at neh bitat cungkuem a saii khaw, manghai taengah athui ol te khaw, a taengah a thui pah tih a napa ham a daek pauh.
12 And their father said to them, “By which way did he depart?” His sons showed him the way by which the man of God, who had come from Judah, had departed.
Te vaengah a napa loh amih te, “Me long nim a caeh,” a ti nah. Te dongah Judah lamkah aka pawk Pathen hlang kah a caeh nah longpuei te a ca rhoek loh a tueng uh.
13 And he said to his sons, “Saddle the donkey for me.” And when they had saddled it, he climbed on,
A ca rhoek te, “Kai ham laak te khit uh,” a ti nah. Te dongah anih ham laak te a khih pa uh tih a soah ngol.
14 and he went away after the man of God. And he found him sitting under a terebinth tree. And he said to him, “Are you the man of God who came from Judah?” And he responded, “I am.”
Te phoeiah Pathen hlang hnuk te a vai hatah rhokael hmuiah a ngol te hmuh. Te dongah anih te, “Nang he Judah lamkah aka pawk Pathen kah hlang ni nama?” a ti nah hatah, “Kai ni ue,” a ti nah.
15 And he said to him, “Come home with me, so that you may eat bread.”
Te phoeiah anih te, “Kai taengah im la halo lamtah buh ca dae,” a ti nah.
16 But he said: “I am not able to turn back, nor to go with you. Neither will I eat bread, or drink water in this place.
Tedae, “Nang taengah ka mael ham neh na taengah pongpa ham ka coeng moenih. He hmuen ah buh ka ca mahpawh, nang taengkah tui khaw ka o mahpawh.
17 For the Lord has spoken to me, by the word of the Lord, saying, “You shall not eat bread, and you shall not drink water in that place, nor shall you return by the way that you arrived.”
Ka taengkah ol he BOEIPA ol dongkah ni. Teah te buh ca boeh, tui khaw o boeh, na lo vaengkah longpuei dongah na mael vaengah cet boeh,’ a ti,” a ti nah.
18 And he said to him: “I, too, am a prophet like you. And an Angel spoke to me, by the word of the Lord, saying, ‘Lead him back with you to your house, so that he may eat bread, and drink water.’” And so he deceived him.
Te vaengah amah te, “Kai khaw nang bangla tonghma van ni. Puencawn loh kai taengah BOEIPA ol neh a thui tih, 'Anih te namah neh na im la mael puei lamtah, buh ca dae saeh, tui khaw o saeh,’ a ti,” a ti nah tih a taengah basa.
19 And he led him back with him. Then he ate bread and drank water in his house.
Te dongah a taengla mael tih a im ah buh a caak, tui khaw a ok pah.
20 And while they were sitting at table, the word of the Lord came to the prophet who had led him back.
Te phoeiah amih te caboei dongah ngol uh. Te vaengah BOEIPA kah ol anih aka khuen tonghma taengah pai.
21 And he cried out to the man of God who had arrived from Judah, saying: “Thus says the Lord: Because you were not obedient to the mouth of the Lord, and you did not keep the commandment that the Lord your God instructed to you,
Te vaengah Judah lamkah aka pawk Pathen hlang te a o tih, “BOEIPA ol na koek dongah BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Na Pathen BOEIPA loh nang n'uen bangla olpaek te na ngaithuen moenih.
22 and you turned back, and ate bread, and drank water in the place where he commanded you that you should not eat bread, nor drink water: your dead body shall not be carried back to the sepulcher of your fathers.”
Na mael tih namah taengah, 'Buh ca boeh, tui o boeh,’ a ti nah hmuen ah buh na caak tih, tui na ok dongah na rhok loh na pa rhoek kah phuel te paan mahpawh,” a ti nah.
23 And when he had eaten and had drunk, he saddled his donkey for the prophet whom he had led back.
Buh a caak phoei neh a ok phoeiah tah anih aka mael puei tonghma loh anih ham laak a khih pah.
24 And when he had departed, a lion found him along the way, and it killed him, and his dead body was left upon the road. Now the donkey was standing beside him. And the lion was standing beside the dead body.
Tedae a caeh vaengah anih te sathueng loh longpuei ah a mah tih anih te a duek sak. A rhok te long ah a voeih tih a om vaengah laak te a taengah pai. Sathueng khaw rhok taengah pai.
25 And behold, men who were passing by saw the dead body lying in the road, with the lion standing beside the body. And they went and made it widely known in the city where that elderly prophet was living.
Te vaengah hlang aka cet loh longpuei ah rhok yalh tih rhok taengah sathueng a pai te lawt a hmuh uh. Te dongah tonghma patong a om nah khopuei ah a thui uh.
26 And when that prophet, who had led him back from the way, had heard it, he said: “It is the man of God, who was disobedient to the mouth of the Lord. And the Lord has delivered him to the lion. And it has torn him apart and killed him, in accord with the word of the Lord, which he spoke to him.”
Te vaengah longpueng lamloh anih aka mael puei tonghma loh a yaak tih, “BOEIPA ol aka koek Pathen kah hlang pai ni, a taengah a thui pah BOEIPA ol bangla BOEIPA loh anih he sathueng taengla a paek dongah a phuet tih a duek sak,” a ti.
27 And he said to his sons, “Saddle a donkey for me.” And when they had saddled it,
Te phoeiah a ca rhoek te, “Kai hamla laak te khit uh,” a ti nah tih a khih pauh.
28 and he had departed, he found the dead body lying on the road, with the donkey and the lion standing beside the dead body. The lion did not eat from the dead body, nor did it harm the donkey.
A caeh vaengah a rhok te long ah ana voeih tih rhok taengah laak neh sathueng a pai te a hmuh. Sathueng loh rhok te ca pawt tih laak te khaw nget pawh.
29 Then the prophet took the dead body of the man of God, and he placed it upon the donkey, and returning, he brought it into the city of the elderly prophet, so that he might mourn for him.
Tonghma loh Pathen hlang kah rhok te a pom tih laak dongla a tloeng phoeiah a mael puei. Te phoeiah rhaengsae ham neh up hamla tonghma patong kah khopuei la a pawk puei.
30 And he placed his dead body in his own sepulcher. And they mourned for him, saying: “Alas! Alas! My brother!”
A rhok te amah phuel ah a yalh sak vaengah, “Anunae kai mana aih,” tila a rhaengsae thil.
31 And when they had mourned over him, he said to his sons: “When I will have died, bury me in the sepulcher in which the man of God was buried. Place my bones beside his bones.
Anih te a up phoeiah tah a ca rhoek te a uen tih, “Ka duek vaengah kai he Pathen hlang up nah phuel ah ng'up uh. Anih rhuh taengah ka rhuh he yalh saeh.
32 For certainly, the word will arrive, which he predicted by the word of the Lord, against the altar, which is in Bethel, and against all the shrines of the high places, which are in the cities of Samaria.”
BOEIPA ol lamloh Bethel kah hmueihtuk ham neh Samaria khopuei rhoek kah hmuensang im boeih ham a doek ol te thoeng rhoe thoeng bitni,” a ti nah.
33 After these words, Jeroboam did not turn back from his very evil way. Instead, to the contrary, he made priests for the high places out of the least of the people. Whosoever was willing, he filled his hand, and he became a priest of the high places.
He ol phoeiah khaw Jeroboam he a longpuei thae lamloh a mael moenih. Tedae a bal vaengah khobawt pilnam khui lamkah te hmuensang khosoih la a khueh. A kut loh a pha rhang la aka omtoem tah hmuensang khosoih la ana om van.
34 And for this reason, the house of Jeroboam sinned, and was uprooted, and was wiped from the face of the earth.
He hno dongah Jeroboam imkhui ah tholhnah la om tih diklai maelhmai lamloh aka thup ham neh aka mitmoeng sak ham ni a om coeng.
