< 1 Samuel 11 >
1 And it came to pass about a month after this that Naas, the Ammonite came up, and began to fight against Jabes Galaad. And all the men of Jabes said to Naas: Make a covenant with us, and we will serve thee.
Lhakhat jouvin Ammon mi Nahash lengpa chun Jebesh-gilead khopi dou dingin ahung konin ahi. Chuin Jabesh khoa cheng mijouse chun Nahash jah-a, “Keiho toh kitepna khat sem uhitin chule nasoh kahi diu ahi,” tin atao tauve.
2 And Naas the Ammonite answered them: On this condition will I make a covenant with you, that I may pluck out all your right eyes, and make you a reproach in all Israel.
Hichun Nahash in, “Aphai, ahinla aumdan khat sem uhite, Israel pumpi kajumso thei nadia, namit changu jetlam cheh ka kaldoh ding ahi,” ati.
3 And the ancients of Jabes said to him: Allow us seven days, that we may send messengers to all the coasts of Israel: and if there be no one to defend us, we will come out to thee.
Hichun amahon, “Achutile nisagi nei ngah un, Israel gamsunga mi sol uvinge, eikithopi diu koima ahung louva ahileh naheng uvah lut tau vinge,” tin Jabesh upa hon adonbut tauve.
4 The messengers therefore came to Gabaa of Saul: and they spoke these words in the hearing of the people: and all the people lifted up their voices, and wept.
Thupoho Saul umna Gibeah ahunglhun phat’un, mijouse mitchang kaldoh ding thu ajahdoh phat in khopi sunga mi jouse akapjah jeng tauvin ahi.
5 And behold Saul came, following oxen out of the field, and he said: What aileth the people that they weep? And they told him the words of the men of Jabes.
Hiche pettah’a chu Saul chu louva kona ganchahon nunga hunga ahi, chule khopi ahunglhun phat’in, “Ipi thilsoh uma hitam? Ipi jeh'a mipite hitobang tah’a khu kap-a hiuvem?” tin adong in ahile amahon Jabesh thupole ho thu chu aseipeh tauve.
6 And the spirit of the Lord came upon Saul, when he had heard these words, and his anger was exceedingly kindled.
Chuin Saul’in chuche thusoh ajah phat’in, Pathen akona lhagao achungah ahung chun, alunghan nachu ahung koujah jeng in ahi.
7 And taking both the oxen, he cut them in pieces, and sent them into all the coasts of Israel by messengers, saying: Whosoever shall not come forth, and follow Saul and Samuel, so shall it be done to his oxen. And the fear of the Lord fell upon the people, and they went out as one man.
Chuin bongchal ni athat’in, achanbong bongin, Israel gamkai jousea ahom dingin thupole ho asollin, “Samuel le Saul gal’a jui louva galkon lou jouse abongchal jouse hitia hi kichanpan ding ahi!” tin gih na jong aneiyin ahi. Chule Pathen in Saul lunghan chun mijouse akichat sah in, kilungkhat tah in ahung kikhom sohkeijun ahi.
8 And he numbered them in Bezec: and there were of the children of Israel three hundred thousand: and of the men of Juda thirty thousand.
Chuin Saul’in Bezek mun’ah akhom khomin ahile Israel a kon mi sang jathum, chule Judah a kon, mi sang somthum akhom doh in ahi.
9 And they said to the messengers that came: Thus shall you say to the men of Jabes Galaad: Tomorrow, when the sun shall be hot, you shall have relief. The messengers therefore came, and told the men of Jabes: and they were glad.
Saul in thupole ho chu Jabesh-Gilead miho henga, “Jing sunkim le kithopina namu diu ahi!” tin thu ale thot in ahile hiche thusoh ajah phat’un, khopi sungah kipana lentah ahung lhungin ahi.
10 And they said: In the morning we will come out to you: and you shall do what you please with us.
Jabesh mihon agal miteho komah “Jing teng naheng uva kahung diu ahin, kachunguva nabol nom chan nabol theiju ahi,” tin aseipeh taovin ahi.
11 And it came to pass, when the morrow was come that Saul put the people in three companies: and he came into the midst of the camp in the morning watch, and he slew the Ammonites until the day grew hot, and the rest were scattered, so that two of them were not left together.
Ahin, ajing jingkah matah in Saul ahung lhun’in, asepaite hopthum in ahom khen’in, khovah in amelmate ngahmun adelkhum’un, hiche jingkah sungse chun, Ammon mite athat in, ahingdoh chasun akithen cheh uvin, achang changing ajam mang tauvin ahi.
12 And the people said to Samuel: Who is he that said: Shall Saul reign over us? Bring the men and we will kill them.
Chuin mipiten Samuel jah’a, “Ipijeh’a Saul i-chung uva leng chang ding ham? tia seiho chu hoilai um gam uhi tam? Neipedoh un, that gam uvinge!” tin angeh un ahi.
13 And Saul said: No man shall be killed this day, because the Lord this day hath wrought salvation in Israel:
Ahin Saul in adonbutin, “Tunia hi mi khatcha kithat lou ding ahi, ajeh chu tuni hi Israel ahuhhing nikho ni ahi,” ati.
14 And Samuel said to the people: Come and let us go to Galgal, and let us renew the kingdom there.
Chuin Samuel in mipi jah ah, “Hungun Gilgal ah cheu hitin, ilengpau gaphongdoh kit uhite,” ati.
15 And all the people went to Galgal, and there they made Saul king before the Lord in Galgal, and they sacrificed there victims of peace before the Lord. And there Saul and all the men of Israel rejoiced exceedingly.
Chuin mipite jouse chu Gilgal ah acheuvin, Pakai masang ah Saul chu Leng in asem doh tahbeh tauve. Hiti chun Pakai angsung ah chamna, kilhaina thilto gantha abolluvin, Saul jong Israel mite jong hapan akipah sohkei juvin ahi.
