< 1 Samuel 11 >

1 Then Nahash the Ammonite came vp, and besieged Iabesh Gilead: and all the men of Iabesh saide vnto Nahash, Make a couenant with vs, and we will be thy seruants.
Ammon tami Nahash a luen teh, Gilead ram, Jabesh kho teng a tungpup awh. Jabesh khocanaw ni Nahash koe kaimouh koe lawkkam nateh, nange na thaw ka tawk han telah a dei awh.
2 And Nahash ye Ammonite answered them, On this condition will I make a couenant with you, that I may thrust out all your right eies, and bring that shame vpon all Israel.
Ammon phun Nahash ni nangmouh pueng e aranglae mit hah cawngkhawi vaiteh, Isarelnaw pueng hane min mathoenae hoi kaya sak torei doeh ahnimouh hoi lawkkam han telah bout atipouh.
3 To whome the Elders of Iabesh said, Giue vs seuen daies respet, that we may sende messengers vnto all the coastes of Israel: and then if no man deliuer vs, we will come out to thee.
Jabesh kho e kacuenaw ni ahni koe Isarel ram pueng dawk patounenaw patoun thai nahan, hnin 7 touh atueng na poe ei. Kaimouh ka rungngang hane buet touh boehai awm hoehpawiteh, hattorei doeh nang koe vah ka tâco awh han telah atipouh awh.
4 Then came the messengers to Gibeah of Saul, and tolde these tidings in the eares of the people: and all the people lift vp their voices and wept.
Patounenaw teh Sawl a onae Gibeah kho a pha awh teh, taminaw a thai nahan hote akong a dei awh teh, taminaw teh a khuika awh.
5 And behold, Saul came following the cattell out of the fielde, and Saul saide, What aileth this people, that they weepe? And they tolde him the tidings of the men of Iabesh.
Hatnae tueng nah Sawl teh maito a khoumnae koehoi a tho. Taminaw a khuika awh e bangkongmaw telah a pacei navah, ahnimouh ni Jabeshnaw ni a dei e lawk hah a dei pouh awh.
6 Then the Spirit of God came vpon Saul, when he heard those tidings, and he was exceeding angrie,
Hote lawk Sawl ni a thai toteh Sawl e lathueng Cathut e Muitha a pha teh a lung puenghoi a khuek.
7 And tooke a yoke of oxen, and hewed them in pieces, and sent them throughout all the coastes of Israel by the hands of messengers, saying, Whosoeuer commeth not foorth after Saul, and after Samuel, so shall his oxen be serued. And the feare of the Lord fell on the people, and they came out with one consent.
Hahoi maito kahni touh a thei teh a moi koung a raban teh Isarel ram pueng dawk patounenaw a rei sak teh, taran tuknae koe Sawl hoi Samuel hnukkâbang hoeh e tami pueng e maito hah, hettelah sak han telah pathang pouh. BAWIPA takinae taminaw koe a pha teh cungtalah koung a tâco awh.
8 And when he nombred them in Bezek, the children of Israel were three hundreth thousande men: and the men of Iudah thirtie thousand.
Bezek kho dawk tami a pâkhueng teh, Isarelnaw 300000, Judahnaw 30000 touh a pha.
9 Then they saide vnto the messengers that came, So say vnto the men of Iabesh Gilead, To morowe by then the sunne be hote, ye shall haue helpe. And the messengers came and shewed it to the men of Iabesh, which were glad.
Hahoi ka tho awh e patounenaw koe, Jebesh Gilead taminaw koe, hettelah na dei pouh han. Tangtho khumbei a thoe lahun nah kabawpnae na hmu awh han, na ti pouh han atipouh. Patounenaw ni a cei awh teh, Jebesh khocanaw hah a dei pouh navah, a lung ahawipoung awh.
10 Therefore the men of Iabesh sayde, To morowe we will come out vnto you, and yee shall doe with vs all that pleaseth you.
Hatdawkvah, Jebesh taminaw ni, tangtho nangmouh koe ka tâco awh vaiteh, nangmouh ni ahawi na tie patetlah kaimae lathueng sak lawih telah atipouh awh.
11 And when the morowe was come, Saul put the people in three bandes, and they came in vpon the hoste in the morning watche, and slewe the Ammonites vntill the heate of the day: and they that remained, were scattered, so that two of them were not left together.
Atangtho vah Sawl ni taminaw hah ahu kathum touh lah a kapek. Tarannaw tumpupnae koe amom vah a pha awh teh, Ammonnaw teh kanîthun khumbeithoe lahun totouh a thei awh. Kahlout e tami buet touh hoi buet touh boehai cungtalah o thai hoeh totouh a kâkayei awh.
12 Then the people said vnto Samuel, Who is he that saide, Shall Saul reigne ouer vs? bring those men that we may slaie them.
Hatnavah taminaw ni Samuel koe, Sawl ni na uk awh han namaw, ka tet e api nama. Thei thai nahan hi thokhai awh haw telah atipouh.
13 But Saul said, There shall no man die this day: for to day the Lord hath saued Israel.
Hatei Sawl ni sahnin dawk teh tami buet touh hai thet hanh sei. Bangkongtetpawiteh, sahnin BAWIPA ni Isarel taminaw koe rungngangnae akuepsak telah a ti.
14 Then saide Samuel vnto ye people, Come, that we may goe to Gilgal, and renue the kingdome there.
Hathnukkhu Samuel ni taminaw koe tho awh. Gilgal kho lah cet awh sei. Hote hmuen koe uknaeram hah bout kangdout sak awh sei telah atipouh.
15 So all the people went to Gilgal, and made Saul King there before the Lord in Gilgal: and there they offered peace offerings before the Lord: and there Saul and all the men of Israel reioyced exceedingly.
Taminaw pueng teh Gilgal kho lah a cei awh teh, haw vah BAWIPA e hmalah Sawl hah siangpahrang lah a tawm awh. Hote hmuen koe roum thuengnae BAWIPA koe a sak awh. Sawl hoi Isarelnaw teh puenghoi a lunghawi awh.
