< 1 Samuel 10 >

1 Then Samuel took the vial of oil, and poured it upon his head, and kissed him, and said, Is it not because Jehovah has anointed thee prince over his inheritance?
Samuel ni satuium a la teh Sawl e a lû dawk a awi hnukkhu, a paco teh, BAWIPA ni nang koe amae râw miphun lathueng siangpahrang hanelah satui na awi toe nahoehmaw.
2 When thou goest from me to-day, thou shalt meet two men by Rachel's sepulchre in the border of Benjamin at Zelzah; and they will say to thee, The asses are found which thou wentest to seek, and behold, thy father has dismissed the matter of the asses, and is anxious about you, saying, What shall I do for my son?
Sahnin kai koehoi na cei toteh, Benjamin ram khori Zelzah kho Rachel tangkom koevah tami kahni touh na hmu han. Ahnimouh roi ni na tawng awh e la a hmu awh toe. Na pa ni la kong hah pouk mahoeh toe. Ka capa hanelah bangmaw ka sak han vai ati telah nang koe na dei pouh awh han.
3 And thou shalt go on forward from thence, and shalt come to the oak of Tabor, and there shall meet thee three men going up to God, to Bethel, one carrying three kids, and another carrying three cakes of bread, and another carrying a flask of wine.
Hote hmuen koehoi pou na cei vaiteh Tabor hmuen koe kaawm e kathen kung koe na pha han. Hmae kathum touh ka sin e tami buet touh, alouke tami ni vaiyei kathum touh a sin vaiteh, tami buet touh ni misur um a sin han.
4 And they will ask after thy welfare, and give thee two loaves, which thou shalt receive of their hands.
Ahnimouh ni nangmouh koe ka dam lah ati awh vaiteh kut na man awh han. Vaiyei kahni touh na poe awh han. Nangmouh ni ahnimouh koe e vaiyei na dâw awh han.
5 After that thou shalt come to the hill of God, where are the outposts of the Philistines; and it shall come to pass, when thou comest thither, into the city, that thou shalt meet a company of prophets coming down from the high place with lute and tambour and pipe and harp before them; and they themselves prophesying.
Hathnukkhu hoi, Filistinnaw onae koe Cathut mon dawk na pha awh han. Kho koe na pha awh navah, hmuen rasang koehoi ka kum e profetnaw na hmu awh han. Ahnimae a hmalah ratoung, tapueng, vovit, tâbaw khawng awh vaiteh profet lawk a dei awh han.
6 And the Spirit of Jehovah will come upon thee, and thou shalt prophesy with them, and shalt be turned into another man.
BAWIPA e Muitha ni na lathueng a pha vaiteh ahnimouh koe profet lawk na dei vaiteh tami aloukcalah na o han.
7 And it shall be, when these signs shall come to thee, thou shalt do as thy hand shall find; for God is with thee.
Nang dawk mitnoutnaw ao toteh kamcu lah sak loe. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Cathut nang koe ao.
8 And thou shalt go down before me to Gilgal; and behold, I will come down to thee, to offer up burnt-offerings, [and] to sacrifice sacrifices of peace-offerings: seven days shalt thou wait, until I come to thee and inform thee what thou shalt do.
Gilgal vah ka hmalah la cet leih. Kai hai hmaisawi thuengnae hoi roum thuengnae sak hanelah nang koe ka tho han. Nang koe ka tho hoehroukrak hnin 7 touh na ring han. Na sak hane kawi na dei pouh awh han.
9 And it was [so] that when he turned his back to go away from Samuel, God gave him another heart; and all those signs came to pass that day.
Sawl teh Samuel koehoi a kamlang teh a cei han ati navah, Cathut ni alouke lungthin a poe teh, hote mitnoutnae pueng teh hote hnin dawk be a kuep.
10 And when they came thither to the hill, behold, a company of prophets met him; and the Spirit of God came upon him, and he prophesied among them.
Mon koe a pha toteh, profetnaw ni a kâhmo navah BAWIPA e Muitha ni Sawl e lathueng a pha teh ahnimouh koe profet lawk a pâpho van.
11 And it came to pass, when all that knew him before saw that, behold, he prophesied among the prophets, then the people said one to another, What is this that has happened to the son of Kish? Is Saul also among the prophets?
Sawl teh profetnaw hoi cungtalah profet lawk a pâpho e hah hoehnahlan, ahni la kapanueknaw ni a hmu awh navah, Kish capa dawk hno kaawm e bangtelane. Sawl hai profetnaw koe ka bawk van e na ou telah a kâ pacei awh.
12 And a man of that place answered and said, But who is their father? Therefore it became a proverb, Is Saul also among the prophets?
Hawvah kaawm e tami buet touh ni, ahnimae a na pa hah apimaw telah a pacei nah, Sawl hai profet lah ao na maw tie lawk teh panuilai lah a hno awh.
13 And when he had ended prophesying, he came to the high place.
Sawl teh profet lawk a pâpho hnukkhu hmuen karasang koe a cei.
14 And Saul's uncle said to him and to his servant, Whither went ye? And he said, To seek the asses; and when we saw that they were nowhere, we went to Samuel.
Sawl e panga ni nâ lah maw na cei awh telah ama hoi a sannaw a pacei navah, la naw ka tawng awh ka hmu awh hoeh dawk Samuel koe ka cei awh telah atipouh awh.
15 And Saul's uncle said, Tell me, I pray thee, what Samuel said to you.
Sawl e panga ni, Samuel ni nang koe bangmaw a dei, na dei pouh haw telah a pacei.
16 And Saul said to his uncle, He told us for certain that the asses were found. But of the matter of the kingdom, of which Samuel had spoken, he told him not.
Sawl ni lanaw ka hmu awh toe tie na dei pouh telah a panga koe bout a dei pouh. Hatei uknae kong Samuel ni a dei e hah dei hoeh.
17 And Samuel called the people together to Jehovah to Mizpah.
Samuel ni Mizpah kho dawk taminaw BAWIPA koe a kamkhueng sak.
18 And he said to the children of Israel, Thus saith Jehovah, the God of Israel, I brought up Israel out of Egypt, and delivered you out of the hand of the Egyptians, and out of the hand of all the kingdoms that oppressed you;
Isarelnaw koe Isarel BAWIPA Cathut ni hettelah a dei. Izip taminaw e kut thung hoi a khok hoi a coungroe e ram pueng dawk hoi ka rungngang.
19 but ye have this day rejected your God, who himself saved you out of all your adversities and your troubles, and have said unto him, [Nay, ] but a king shalt thou set over us. Now therefore present yourselves before Jehovah by your tribes, and by your thousands.
Hatei sahnin vah na reithainae, rucatnae pueng thung hoi nangmouh ka rungngang e Cathut roeroe hah na ngai awh hoeh. Ahni koe siangpahrang mah kaimouh han na rawi pouh awh telah na dei awh. Hatdawkvah, na miphun, na imthungkhu lahoi BAWIPA hmalah hnai awh atipouh.
20 And Samuel caused all the tribes of Israel to come near, and the tribe of Benjamin was taken.
Samuel ni Isarel miphunnaw hah ama koe a tho sak teh Benjamin miphun hah a rawi.
21 And he caused the tribe of Benjamin to come near by their families, and the family of Matri was taken; and Saul the son of Kish was taken. And they sought him, but he was not to be found.
Benjamin miphunnaw a imthung lahoi a tho sak teh Matri imthungnaw a rawi. Kish capa Sawl hah a rawi. Ahnimouh ni a tawng awh eiteh hmawt awh hoeh.
22 Therefore they inquired of Jehovah further, Will the man yet come hither? And Jehovah answered, Behold, he hath hid himself among the baggage.
Ahnimouh ni BAWIPA hah bout a pacei awh teh, ka tho hane tami ao rah maw, telah ati. BAWIPA ni khenhaw! hnonaw a rahak a kâhro telah atipouh.
23 And they ran and fetched him thence; and when he stood among the people, he was higher than any of the people from his shoulders and upward.
Ayawng sin awh teh a thokhai awh. Tamimaya koe a kangdue nah ahnimanaw hlak a rasang poung apinihai aloung tapuet pouh hoeh.
24 And Samuel said to all the people, See ye him whom Jehovah has chosen, that there is none like him among all the people? And all the people shouted and said, May the king live.
Samuel ni taminaw koe, BAWIPA ni a rawi e na hmu awh maw. Taminaw thung dawk ahni patet e buet touh hai awmhoeh telah ati teh tamimaya ni a hram awh teh siangpahrang hring saw naseh ati awh.
25 And Samuel told the people the right of the kingdom, and wrote it in the book, and laid it before Jehovah. And Samuel sent all the people away, every man to his house.
Samuel ni taminaw koe a sakyoe e a dei pouh. Cauk dawk a thut pouh teh, BAWIPA e hmalah a hruek awh. Hahoi Samuel ni taminaw ama im lah be a cei sak.
26 And Saul also went home to Gibeah; and with him went the band, whose hearts God had touched.
Sawl hai Gibeah kho ama im vah a ban van. Cathut ni a lung ka youk e taran kahawinaw ahni hoi rei a cei awh.
27 But the children of Belial said, How should this man save us? And they despised him, and brought him no gifts. But he was as one deaf.
Hatei taran ka thaw e tami tangawn ni hete tami ni maimanaw bangtelamaw na rungngang thai han telah ati awh teh, a dudam awh teh, poehno hai poe awh hoeh. Hatei Sawl ni duem ao.
