< 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.
Jeroboam teh hmuitui hmaisawi hanelah khoungroe teng a kangdue navah, Cathut e tami buet touh teh Bawipa e lawk patetlah Judah ram lahoi Bethel kho vah a tho.
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.’”
BAWIPA e lawk patetlah khoungroe koe hram laihoi, Oe khoungroe, khoungroe, BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei. Devit imthung dawk e Josiah a min kâphung e a khe han. Nange lathueng hmuitui hmaisawi vaiteh, hmuen rasang koe vaihma thaw katawknaw hah ahni ni na lathueng thuengnae a thueng vaiteh, tami kadout e hrunaw hah hmai a sawi han ati telah ati.
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.”
Hote hnin dawkvah, mitnoutnae a poe teh, BAWIPA ni a dei e mitnoutnae hateh, khoungroe a tip roeroe han. Khoungroe e van kaawm e hraba hah koung a yut han telah ati.
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.
Hottelah Cathut e tami ni, Bethel kho e khoungroe dawk a hram e hah Jeroboam siangpahrang ni a thai toteh, khoungroe dawk hoi a kut a kâyap teh man awh telah ati. A man nahanlah a kâyap e kut hah a kamkhuen teh a kut bout lat thai hoeh toe.
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.
Cathut e tami ni BAWIPA e a lawk a poe e patetlah mitnoutnae hoi kâvan lah khoungroe a tip teh, hraba hai khoungroe dawk hoi he a yut.
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.
Siangpahrang ni ka kut bout a dam thai nahanelah kai hane ratoum nateh, na BAWIPA Cathut e hmalah, pahrennae het haw atipouh. Cathut e tami ni BAWIPA koe a hei pouh navah, siangpahrang e kut teh bout a dam. Ahmaloe e boiboe lah bout ao.
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.”
Siangpahrang ni Cathut e tami koe, kai koe tho nateh na thapatho, tawkphu na poe han telah atipouh.
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.
Cathut e tami ni siangpahrang koevah, na im tangawn na ka poe nakunghai nang koe ka tho mahoeh. Hete hmuen dawk vaiyei hoi tui hai ka net mahoeh.
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.’”
BAWIPA e lawk ni vaiyei cat hanh, tui hai net hanh. Na thonae lam dawk hoi ban han telah kai koe lawk na poe toe telah siangpahrang koe a dei pouh.
10 Then he departed by another way, and he did not return along the way that he had traveled to Bethel.
Bethel lam lahoi a thonae lam hah a roun teh, alouke lae lam lahoi a ban.
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.
Hatnae tueng dawkvah, Bethel kho vah, profet matawng buet touh ao. A capanaw a tho awh teh, hot hnin vah Cathut tami ni Bethel kho a sak e pueng hah a dei pouh. Siangpahrang koe a dei pouh e hai a na pa koe a dei pouh.
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.
Judah ram lahoi ka tho e Cathut e tami teh, na lae lam dawk hoi maw a cei tie a panue awh dawkvah, a na pa ni ahni na lae lam dawk hoi maw a cei tie a pacei.
13 And he said to his sons, “Saddle the donkey for me.” And when they had saddled it, he climbed on,
A capanaw koe vah la hah, hni padoun haw ati e patetlah a canaw ni hni a padoun pouh teh a kâcui.
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.”
Cathut e tami hah a pâlei. Kathen e rahim a tahung e a hmu nah nang teh Judah ram lahoi na ka tho e Cathut e tami maw telah a pacei. Oe kai doeh atipouh.
15 And he said to him, “Come home with me, so that you may eat bread.”
Profet ni kai hoi rei cei roi han, ka im totouh kâbang nateh, vaiyei hai cat loe telah a coun.
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.
Kai teh nang hoi rei ka cet mahoeh. Na im dawk ka kâen mahoeh. Hie hmuen dawk vaiyei ka cat mahoeh, tui hai ka net mahoeh.
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.”
BAWIPA ni hote a hmuen koe, vaiyei cat hanh, tui net hanh, na thonae lam dawk hoi ban hanh loe kai koe na dei pouh telah ati.
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.
Profet ni kai hai nang patetlah profet lah ka o. Nang teh vaiyei na ca vaiteh, tui na nei sak nahanelah nang ka im dawk na coun nahanelah, kalvantami ni BAWIPA e a lawk lahoi na dei pouh toe telah laithoe sin teh a dei pouh.
19 And he led him back with him. Then he ate bread and drank water in his house.
Cathut e tami teh, profet hoi a ban roi teh, a im dawk vaiyei a ca teh tui hai a nei.
20 And while they were sitting at table, the word of the Lord came to the prophet who had led him back.
Caboi dawk rei a tahung roi nah, ka ban khai e profet koevah, BAWIPA e lawk a pha.
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,
Judah ram lahoi ka tho e Cathut e tami koe BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei. BAWIPA e lawk dei e na tarawi hoeh. BAWIPA Cathut e kâpoe e na ngai hoeh.
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.”
Hie hmuen koe vaiyei cat hanh, tui net hanh telah lawk na poe e hmuen koe vaiyei na ca teh, tui na nei dawkvah, na ro heh na mintoenaw e tangkom koe phat mahoeh telah a pâpho.
23 And when he had eaten and had drunk, he saddled his donkey for the prophet whom he had led back.
Vaiyei hoi tui a canei hnukkhu, hote profet ni ka ban e profet hanelah amae la hah hni a padoun pouh teh a cei sak.
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.
Lam vah Sendek a kâhmo teh, a kei. A ro teh lam dawk a yan. Sendek hoi la teh a teng vah a kangdue.
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.
A ro teh lam dawk a yan teh Sendek hoi la teh a teng vah a kangdue pouh e kahlawng ka cet e ni a hmu nah, ka matawng e profet koe a cei teh a dei pouh.
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.”
La hoi ka bankhai e profet ni hote lawk a thai toteh, Cathut e tami BAWIPA e lawk ka ngai hoeh e han doeh. Hatdawkvah, BAWIPA ni ahni koe a dei pouh e a lawk patetlah BAWIPA ni Sendek koe a poe teh, vekrasen lah a hruek, a thei tayaw telah ati.
27 And he said to his sons, “Saddle a donkey for me.” And when they had saddled it,
A capanaw koe la hni na padoun pouh awh atipouh e patetlah a padoun pouh awh.
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 cei teh lam dawk ka yan e a ro hoi a teng kangdout e sendek hah a hmu. Sendek ni a ro la cat hoeh rah. La hai runae poe hoeh rah.
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.
Profet ni Cathut e tami e a ro hah a kayo teh la van a phu teh a bankhai. Profet matawng a onae kho dawk khuikakhai teh, pakawp hanelah a ma kho lah a ceikhai.
30 And he placed his dead body in his own sepulcher. And they mourned for him, saying: “Alas! Alas! My brother!”
A ro teh amae tangkom dawk a pakawp teh, Oe ka nawngha telah a khuikakhai awh.
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.
A pakawp hnukkhu a canaw koevah, ka due toteh Cathut e tami pakawpnae tangkom dawk na pakawp awh. A hru teng vah kaie hru hai tat awh.
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.”
Bethel kho khoungroe hoi Samaria kho ram dawk e hmuenrasang koe sak e imnaw a vang lah Cathut e a lawk patetlah ka hram e lawk teh a kuep katang han telah ati.
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.
Hathnukkhu Jeroboam ni amae lamthung kahawihoehe roun hoeh. Hmuenrasang koe tami rumramnaw vaihmanaw lah bout a hruek. Vaihma tawk hane ka ngai e pueng a tawmrasang teh, ahnimouh teh hmuenrasang koe vaihma lah ao awh.
34 And for this reason, the house of Jeroboam sinned, and was uprooted, and was wiped from the face of the earth.
Hottelah a sak dawkvah, Jeroboam catoun hah talai dawk hoi koung ka mit sak hane hoi kong ka raphoenae yon teh a pha.
