1 Samuel 29
1 Then all the troops of the Philistines were gathered together at Aphek. But Israel also made camp, above the spring which is in Jezreel.
Muntina Philistine sepaiho Aphek a akikhom khom’un, chule Israel te sepai chu Jezreel twinah phung mun’ah akikhom uve.
2 And indeed, the princes of the Philistines advanced by hundreds and by thousands; but David and his men were in the rear with Achish.
Philistine lamkaihon, asepai teho loi jakhat loi, loi sangkhat khat in akhen un alamkaiyun, David chule a sepai teho Achish lengpa kom langa akijot un ahi.
3 And the leaders of the Philistines said to Achish, “What do these Hebrews intend to do?” And Achish said to the leaders of the Philistines: “Could you be ignorant about David, who was the servant of Saul, the king of Israel, and who has been with me for many days, even years, and I have not found within him anything, from the day that he fled to me, even to this day?”
Ahinlah Philistine gal lamkaihon, “Hebrew mite hohin hiche’a hi ipibolla hiuvem?” atiuve. Chuin Achish in, “Hichepa hi David, Israel mite lengpa Saul sohpa chu ahi. Amahi akum kum’a keitoh umkhom kahi lhonin, ahunglhun nia kipat, tuni chengeiyin athepmona imacha kamupoi,” ati.
4 Then the leaders of the Philistines became angry against him, and they said to him: “Let this man return, and let him settle in his place, which you appointed for him. But let him not descend with us to battle, lest he become an adversary to us when we begin to fight. For in what other way will he be able to please his lord, except with our heads?
Ahinla Philistine lamkaiho chu alunghang un, “Nakhopi pehna a chun nungsol tan! Ama keihotoh galsat in konkhom thei pouvinte, ama galsatna mun’ah kilehei henlang Philistine mite eihin le sat kit u henlang, eiho luchang hijatpi hi kipoh henlang apupa toh kicham kit taleh, hiche tilouva aman thilpha abolthei ding adang ipi uma nangaitom?” atiuvin ahi.
5 Is not this the David, about whom they were singing, while dancing, saying: ‘Saul struck down his thousands, but David his ten thousands?’”
“Hiche David kitipa hi hilou ham? Mihon la abol uva, ‘Saul in mi asang asang athat in, David in mi sangsom som in athat’e, tia kisei chu?
6 Therefore, Achish called David, and he said to him: “As the Lord lives, you are good and righteous in my sight, even in your departure and your return with me in the military camp. And I have not found anything evil in you, from the day that you came to me, even to this day. But you are not pleasing to the princes.
Hichun Achish lengpan achaina in akouvin David jah’ah, “Pakai hingjing mina kasei ahi, nangma keidin nakitah lheh jengin ahi. Keima gellin nangtoh galla ikon khom dingham kanati ahin, ajeh chu nahunglhun tilla kipat in tuni chan geijin nasuhkhel na imacha kamupon ahi. Ahivanginla Philistine lamkai len dangho nangma toh gal isat khom diu hi, anom pouvin ahi.
7 Therefore, return, and go in peace, so that you do not offend the eyes of the princes of the Philistines.”
Lungset tah in achunguva lungnom mo louvin, lungmong in inlama kile kit tan,” ati.
8 And David said to Achish, “But what have I done, or what have you found in me, your servant, from the day that I was in your sight to this day, so that I may not go out and fight against the enemies of my lord, the king?”
Hichun David in, “Ipi kanabol khella hitobang thil soh ham? Nasohpa keima chunga hi ipi lung lhai louna namu doh’a ka pakai le ka lengpa toh, galmi ho kasat khom thei lou hitam?” ati.
9 And in response, Achish said to David: “I know that you are good in my sight, like an angel of God. But the leaders of the Philistines have said: ‘He shall not go up with us to the battle.’
Ahinlah Achish in, “Keima tah mudol in, nangma hi Pakai vantil bangin nadih lheh jenge, ahinlah Philistine gal lamkai hon gal nasat khompi ding akichauvin ahi.
10 And so, rise up in the morning, you and the servants of your lord who came with you. And when you have risen up in the night, as it begins to be light, go forth.”
Hijeh chun, jingkah matah tengle kithou vinlang namiteho jouse toh neidalha tauvin,” ati.
11 And so David rose up in the night, he and his men, so that they might set out in the morning. And they returned to the land of the Philistines. But the Philistines ascended to Jezreel.
Hiti chun David le aloiteho akigong’un, Philistine gamsung adalha tauvin ahi. Hiche phat chun Philistine sepai hon Jezreel ajon tauvin ahi.
