1 Samuel 10
1 Then Samuel took a flask of olive oil and poured it over Saul's head, and kissed him, saying, “The Lord has anointed you as ruler of his chosen people.
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 you leave me today, you will meet two men near Rachel's tomb in Zelzah, on the border of Benjamin. They will tell you that the donkeys you went to look for have been found. Now your father isn't concerned about them but is worried about you. He's wondering, ‘What about 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 You will leave there and go on to the oak at Tabor where you will meet three men on their way to worship God at Bethel. One will be carrying three young goats, one will be carrying three loaves of bread, and one will be carrying a skin 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 They will greet you and give you two loaves of bread which you should take.
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 Next you will come to Gibeah of God, where the Philistines have a garrison. As you come into town, you will meet a procession of prophets coming down from the high place led by harps, tambourines, flutes, and lyres, and they will be 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 The Spirit of the Lord will come on you with power. You will prophesy with them, and you will become a different man.
BAWIPA e Muitha ni na lathueng a pha vaiteh ahnimouh koe profet lawk na dei vaiteh tami aloukcalah na o han.
7 After these signs have happened, do what you need to do, for God is with you.
Nang dawk mitnoutnaw ao toteh kamcu lah sak loe. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Cathut nang koe ao.
8 Then go ahead of me to Gilgal. I assure you I will come and join you to present burnt offerings and friendship offerings. Wait there seven days until I come to you, and let you know what you should 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 The moment Saul turned to leave Samuel, God gave Saul a different way of thinking, and all the signs were fulfilled 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 When Saul and his servant arrived in Gibeah, there was a procession of prophets coming out to meet them, the Spirit of God came on Saul with power, and he also started to prophesy with 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 Everyone who had used to know Saul and saw him prophesying with the prophets said to each other, “What's going on with the son of Kish? Is Saul one of the prophets too?”
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 A man living there responded, “But who is their father?” So it became a saying: “Is Saul one of the prophets too?”
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 After Saul had finished prophesying, he went to the high place.
Sawl teh profet lawk a pâpho hnukkhu hmuen karasang koe a cei.
14 Saul's uncle asked Saul and his servant, “Where have you been?” “We were looking for the donkeys,” Saul replied. “When we couldn't find them 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 “Please tell me what he said to you,” Saul's uncle asked.
Sawl e panga ni, Samuel ni nang koe bangmaw a dei, na dei pouh haw telah a pacei.
16 “He promised us the donkeys had been found,” Saul replied. But Saul didn't tell his uncle what Samuel had said about him becoming king.
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 Samuel called the people of Israel to come before the Lord at Mizpah.
Samuel ni Mizpah kho dawk taminaw BAWIPA koe a kamkhueng sak.
18 He told the Israelites, “This is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says: I led Israel out of Egypt, and I saved you from the Egyptians and from all the kingdoms that were oppressing 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 now you have rejected your God, the one who saves you from all your troubles and disasters. You told him, ‘You must appoint a king to rule us.’ So now present yourselves before the Lord by your tribes and family groups.”
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 Samuel had all Israel come forward by tribes, and the tribe of Benjamin was chosen by lot.
Samuel ni Isarel miphunnaw hah ama koe a tho sak teh Benjamin miphun hah a rawi.
21 Then he had the tribe of Benjamin come forward by its family groups, and the family group of Matri was chosen. Lastly, Saul, son of Kish, was chosen. But when they looked for him, he couldn't 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 So they asked the Lord, “Has he arrived here yet?” The Lord replied, “Go and look—he's hiding 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 They ran and brought Saul over. When he stood among the people, he was head and shoulders taller than anyone else.
Ayawng sin awh teh a thokhai awh. Tamimaya koe a kangdue nah ahnimanaw hlak a rasang poung apinihai aloung tapuet pouh hoeh.
24 Samuel said to everyone, “Can you see the one the Lord has chosen? There's no one like him anywhere!” All the people shouted, “Long live the king!”
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 Then Samuel explained to the people all that a king would do. He wrote it down on a scroll and placed it before the Lord. Then Samuel sent everyone home.
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 Saul also returned to his home in Gibeah, accompanied by warriors who God had encouraged to help him.
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 some obnoxious men asked, “How could this man save us?” They hated him and didn't bring him any gifts; but Saul did not retaliate.
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.
