1 Samuel 19
1 And Saul spoke to Jonathan his son, and to all his servants, that they should slay David.
Saul loh a capa Jonathan taengah khaw a sal rhoek taengah khaw David te duek sak hamla boeih a thui pah. Tedae Saul capa Jonathan longtah David te bahoeng a ngaih.
2 But Jonathan Saul's son delighted much in David. And Jonathan told David, saying, Saul my father seeks to kill thee; and now, I pray thee, take heed to thyself in the morning, and abide in a secret place and hide thyself;
Te dongah Jonathan te David taengah a puen tih, “A pa Saul loh nang he duek sak hamla m'mae coeng, te dongah mincang duela ngaithuen uh, yinhnuk ah khosa lamtah thuh uh,
3 and I will go out and stand beside my father in the field where thou art, and will speak of thee with my father: and see what it is, and tell thee.
Kai khaw ka cet vetih na om nah lohma kah a pa kut dongah kana pai bitni. Te vaengah nang kawng te kamah loh a pa taengah ka thui pah vetih mebang ka hmuh akhaw nang taengah ka puen bitni,” a ti nah.
4 And Jonathan spoke good of David to Saul his father, and said to him, Let not the king sin against his servant, against David, because he has not sinned against thee; for also what he did was very advantageous to thee;
David kawng te Jonathan loh a napa Saul taengah a then la a thui pah tih, “A sal taeng neh David taengah manghai nang loh lai khueh boeh, anih loh nang taengah lai a khueh van moenih, a khoboe khaw nang taengah bahoeng then.
5 for he put his life in hand, and smote the Philistine, and Jehovah wrought a great salvation for all Israel: thou didst see [it], and didst rejoice; why then wilt thou sin against innocent blood, in slaying David without cause?
A kut dongah a hinglu te a hmoel tih Philisti a ngawn khaw, BOEIPA loh Israel boeih ham a saii loeihnah tanglue na hmuh vaengah na kohoe ta. Tedae balae tih ommongsitoe thii dongah na tholh vetih, lunglilungla la David a duek eh?,” a ti nah.
6 And Saul hearkened to the voice of Jonathan, and Saul swore, [As] Jehovah liveth, he shall not be put to death!
Saul loh Jonathan ol te a yaak vaengah, “BOEIPA kah hingnah rhang neh ka ngawn mahpawh,” tila Saul loh a caeng.
7 Then Jonathan called David, and Jonathan declared to him all those things. And Jonathan brought David to Saul, and he was in his presence as previously.
Te dongah Jonathan loh David te a khue tih olka he khaw anih taengah Jonathan loh boeih a thui pah. Te phoeiah David te Jonathan loh Saul taengla a khuen tih hlaem hlavai kah bangla a mikhmuh ah a om pah.
8 And there was war again; and David went forth and fought with the Philistines, and smote them with a great slaughter; and they fled before him.
Caemtloek loh a koei tih a om vaengah David te hlah uh tih Philisti te a vathoh thil. Te vaengah amih te hmasoe len neh a ngawn tih Philisti khaw David mikhmuh lamkah rhaelrham uh.
9 And an evil spirit from Jehovah was upon Saul. And he sat in his house with his spear in his hand; and David played with his hand.
Tedae BOEIPA kah mueihla thae loh Saul soah a om vaengah tah a kut dongkah caai neh a im khuiah ngol. Te vaengah David loh kut a luem nah.
10 And Saul sought to smite David and the wall with the spear; but he slipped away out of Saul's presence, and he smote the spear into the wall. And David fled, and escaped that night.
Saul loh David neh pangbueng te caai neh daeng rhenten hamla a moeh coeng dae Saul kah mikhmuh ah a phaelhael tak dongah caai te pangbueng dongah tlaeh. David khaw tekah khoyin ah rhaelrham tih a poeng a hal.
11 And Saul sent messengers to David's house, to watch him, and to slay him in the morning; and Michal David's wife told him, saying, If thou save not thy life to-night, to-morrow thou wilt be put to death.
Te dongah anih te dawn tih mincang ah ngawn hamla Saul loh David im la puencawn a hlah. Tedae a yuu Mikhal te David taengla puen tih, “Na hinglu ham khoyin ah na loeih pawt koinih thangvuen ah na duek pawn ni,” a ti nah.
12 And Michal let David down through a window; and he went, and fled and escaped.
Te dongah Mikhal loh David te bangbuet longah a suntlak sak tih a caeh sak daengah yong pueng tih a poeng a hal pueng.
13 And Michal took the image, and laid it in the bed, and put the net of goats' [hair] at its head, and covered it with the coverlet.
Te phoeiah Mikhal loh sithui te a loh tih baiphaih dongah a soei. A lu ah maae mul a khueh pah tih himbai neh a khuk.
14 And Saul sent messengers to take David, and she said, He is sick.
David te tuuk hamla Saul loh puencawn rhoek a tueih vaengah tah, “David a sa tlo,” a ti nah.
15 And Saul sent the messengers to see David, saying, Bring him up to me in the bed, that I may put him to death.
Tedae David te sawt hamla Saul loh puencawn rhoek te a tueih tih, “Anih te ngawn hamla baiphaih neh kamah taengla hang khuen uh,” a ti nah.
16 And the messengers came in, and behold, the image was in the bed, and the net of goats' [hair] at its head.
Tedae baiphaih dongkah sithui vik te a lu dongah maae mul hoeng la puencawn rhoek loh kak a thoeng thiluh.
17 Then Saul said to Michal, Why hast thou deceived me so, and sent away mine enemy, that he is escaped? And Michal said to Saul, He said to me, Let me go; why should I slay thee?
Te dongah Saul loh Mikhal te, “Balae tih he tluk la kai nam phok, ka thunkha te na tueih tih a loeih,” a ti nah. Te vaengah Mikhal loh Saul te, “Amah loh kai taengah, 'Kai he n'tueih mai,’ a ti balae tih nan duek sak eh,” a ti nah.
18 And David fled, and escaped, and came to Samuel to Ramah, and told him all that Saul had done to him. And he and Samuel went and dwelt in Naioth.
David te yong tih a loeih phoeiah Ramah kah Samuel te a paan. Te vaengah Saul loh anih taengah a saii te a taengah boeih a thui pah. Te phoeiah Samuel neh cet rhoi tih Naioth ah om rhoi.
19 And it was told Saul, saying, Behold, David is at Naioth by Ramah.
Tedae Saul taengla a puen pa uh tih, “Ramah Naioth ah David om ke,” a ti nah.
20 Then Saul sent messengers to take David; and they saw a company of prophets prophesying, and Samuel standing as president over them; and the Spirit of God came upon the messengers of Saul, and they also prophesied.
Te dongah David tuuk hamla Saul loh puencawn rhoek te a tueih. Te vaengah tonghma tarhoi te tonghma uh tih amih taengah Samuel cawkdawk la a pai te a hmuh uh. Saul kah puencawn rhoek khaw Pathen Mueihla loh a om thil dongah amih khaw boeih tonghma uh.
21 And it was told Saul, and he sent other messengers, and they also prophesied. And Saul sent messengers again the third time, and they also prophesied.
Saul taengla a puen uh dongah puencawn a tloe rhoek a tueih hatah amih khaw nunan tonghma uh. Te dongah Saul loh a pathum duela a rhaep tih puencawn rhoek te a tueih hatah amih khaw tonghma uh sumsoek.
22 Then went he also to Ramah, and came to the great well that is in Sechu; and he asked and said, Where are Samuel and David? And one said, Behold, at Naioth by Ramah.
Te dongah amah khaw Ramah la cet tih Seku kah tangrhom puei la pawk. Te vaengah a dawt tih, “Samuel neh David ta?,” a ti nah hatah, “Ramah Naioth ah om ke,” a ti nauh.
23 And he went thither to Naioth by Ramah; and the Spirit of God came upon him also, and he went on, and prophesied, until he came to Naioth by Ramah.
Te dongah Ramah Naioth la pahoi cet. Tedae anih khaw Pathen Mueihla loh a om thil dongah cet cet tih Ramah Naioth a pha duela voek tonghma bal.
24 And he himself also stripped off his clothes, and prophesied, himself also, before Samuel, and lay down naked all that day and all that night. Wherefore they say, Is Saul also among the prophets?
Amah khaw a himbai a pit tih Samuel mikhmuh ah amah tonghma bal. Te khothaih puet khoyin puet pumtling la yalh. Te dongah, “Saul khaw tonghma khuikah ni nama?” a ti uh.
