1 Chronicles 19
1 After this also Nahash the King of the children of Ammon dyed, and his sonne reigned in his stead.
Te phoeiah tah Ammon koca rhoek kah manghai Nahash te duek tih a capa te anih yueng la manghai.
2 And Dauid said, I will shew kindnesse vnto Hanun the sonne of Nahash, because his father shewed kindnesse vnto me. And Dauid sent messengers to comfort him for his father. So the seruants of Dauid came into the lande of the children of Ammon to Hanun to comfort him.
Te vaengah David loh, “A napa loh kai taengah sitlohnah a tueng sak dongah Nahash capa Hanun te sitlohnah ka tueng sak van eh,” a ti. Te dongah a napa kongah anih suem ham te David loh puencawn a tueih tih David kah sal rhoek khaw Hanun suem hamla Ammon koca rhoek kah khohmuen la pawk uh.
3 And the princes of the children of Ammon said to Hanun, Thinkest thou that Dauid doeth honour thy father, that he hath sent comforters vnto thee? Are not his seruants come to thee to search, to seeke and to spie out the land?
Tedae Ammon koca rhoek kah mangpa rhoek loh Hanun taengah, “Nang suem ham han tueih dongah na mikhmuh ah David loh na pa a thangpom nama? Khohmuen he hip ham neh maelh ham, khe ham pawt nim a sal rhoek te nang taengla ha pawk uh?” a ti nah.
4 Wherefore Hanun tooke Dauids seruants, and shaued them, and cut off their garments by the halfe vnto the buttocks, and sent them away.
Te dongah Hanun loh David kah sal rhoek te a tuuk. Amih te sam a vok pah, a himbai te a ael ah rhakthuem a hlueng pah phoeiah a tueih.
5 And there went certaine and tolde Dauid concerning the men: and he sent to meete them (for the men were exceedingly ashamed) and the King saide, Tarie at Iericho, vntill your beardes be growen: then returne.
A caeh uh vaengah tah a hlang rhoek kawng te David ham a puen pa uh. Hlang rhoek khaw hmaithae la mat a om uh coeng dongah amih aka doe te a tueih. Te vaengah manghai loh, “Na hmuimul a cawn hil Jerikho ah om uh lamtah ha mael uh,” a ti nah.
6 When the children of Ammon saw that they stanke in the sight of Dauid, then sent Hanun and the children of Ammon a thousande talents of siluer to hire them charets and horsemen out of Aram Naharaim and out of Aram Maachah, and out of Zobah.
David taengah bo a rhim uh te Ammon koca rhoek loh a hmuh uh. Te dongah Hanun neh Ammon koca rhoek loh Aramnaharaim, Arammaakah, Zobah lamkah leng neh marhang caem te paang hamla cak talent thawng khat neh a tah.
7 And they hired them two and thirty thousande charets, and the King of Maachah and his people, which came and pitched before Medeba: and the children of Ammon gathered themselues together from their cities, and came to the battell.
Te dongah amamih ham te leng thawng sawmthum thawng hnih te a paang uh. Manghai Maakah neh a pilnam te khaw cet uh tih Medeba rhaldan ah rhaeh uh. Ammon koca rhoek khaw amamih khopuei lamloh coi uh thae tih caemtloek la pawk uh.
8 And when Dauid heard, he sent Ioab and all the hoste of the valiant men.
David loh a yaak vaengah Joab neh hlangrhalh caempuei te boeih a tueih.
9 And the children of Ammon came out, and set their battell in aray at the gate of the citie. And the Kings that were come, were by them selues in the fielde.
Ammon koca rhoek te cet uh tih khopuei thohka ah caemtloek rhong a pai uh. Te vaengah manghai aka pawk rhoek te lohma ah amamih bueng om uh.
10 When Ioab saw that the front of the battel was against him before and behinde, then he chose out of all the choyse of Israel, and set him selfe in aray to meete the Aramites.
Joab loh caemtloek hmai ah a hnuk a hmai la a om te a hmuh. Te dongah Israel khuikah a coelh boeih te koep a coelh tih Aram te mah hamla rhong a pai.
11 And the rest of the people he deliuered vnto the hande of Abishai his brother, and they put them selues in aray against the children of Ammon.
Pilnam kah a coihpaih te a mana Abishai kut ah a khueh tih Ammon koca rhoek te mah hamla rhong a pai uh.
12 And he saide, If Aram be too strong for me, then thou shalt succour me: and if the children of Ammon preuaile against thee, then I wil succour thee.
Te vaengah, “Aram te kai lakah a tlung atah loeihnah hamla kai taengah om. Tedae Ammon koca rhoek te nang lakah a tlung oeh atah nang kang khang van eh.
13 Be strong, and let vs shewe our selues valiant for our people, and for the cities of our God, and let the Lord doe that which is good in his owne sight.
Thaahuel uh lamtah mah pilnam ham neh mamih kah Pathen khopuei rhoek ham khaw thaahuel uh sih. BOEIPA loh a mikhmuh ah a then a saii bitni,” a ti nah.
14 So Ioab and the people that was with him, came neere before the Aramites vnto the battel, and they fled before him.
Te phoeiah Joab neh a taengkah pilnam loh Aram te caemtloek la a thoeih hatah a mikhmuh lamloh rhaelrham uh.
15 And when the children of Ammon sawe that the Aramites fled, they fled also before Abishai his brother, and entred into the citie: so Ioab came to Ierusalem.
Ammon koca rhoek loh Aram a rhaelrham te a hmuh vaengah amamih khaw Joab mana Abishai mikhmuh lamloh rhaelrham uh tih khopuei khuila a kun coeng dongah Joab khaw Jerusalem la mael.
16 And when the Aramites sawe that they were discomfited before Israel, they sent messengers and caused the Aramites to come forth that were beyond the riuer: and Shophach the captaine of the hoste of Hadarezer went before them.
Aram loh Israel mikhmuh ah a yawk te a hmuh vaengah puencawn rhoek te a tueih uh. Te vaengah Aram loh tuiva rhalvangan lamkah te a khuen uh tih Hadadezer kah caempuei mangpa Shophate te amih hmai ah a lamhma sak.
17 And when it was shewed Dauid, he gathered all Israel, and went ouer Iorden, and came vnto them, and put him selfe in aray against them: And when Dauid had put him selfe in battel aray to meete the Aramites, they fought with him.
Tedae David taengla a puen pah dongah Israel pum te a coi tih Jordan te kat. Amih te a paan tih a rhaldan ah rhong a pai. David loh Aram te caemtloek neh doe hamla rhong a pai tih a vathoh thil uh.
18 But the Aramites fled before Israel, and Dauid destroyed of the Aramites seuen thousand charets, and fourtie thousand footemen, and killed Shophach the captaine of the hoste.
Aram te Israel mikhmuh lamloh a rhaelrham coeng dongah David loh Aram kah leng caem thawng rhih, rhalkap te hlang thawng sawmli a ngawn pah tih caempuei mangpa Shophate te a duek sak.
19 And when the seruants of Hadarezer sawe that they fell before Israel, they made peace with Dauid, and serued him. And the Aramites would no more succour the children of Ammon.
Israel mikhmuh ah a yawk uh te Hadadezer kah sal rhoek loh a hmuh. Te dongah David te a sah tih a taengah thotat uh. Te phoeiah Aram loh Ammon koca te rhun ham ngaih voel pawh.
