1 Samuel 13
1 Saul nowe had beene King one yeere, and he reigned two yeeres ouer Israel.
Saul a manghai kum neh Israel soah kum nit a manghai nen tah,
2 Then Saul chose him three thousand of Israel: and two thousande were with Saul in Michmash, and in mount Beth-el, and a thousande were with Ionathan in Gibeah of Beniamin: and the rest of the people he sent euery one to his tent.
Israel hlang thawng thum te Saul loh amah ham a coelh. Te vaengah Mikmash kah Saul taeng neh Bethel tlang ah a thawng thawng om uh tih Benjamin Gibeah kah Jonathan taengah khaw a thawng thawng la om uh. Pilnam hlangrhuel rhoek te amah dap la boeih a tueih.
3 And Ionathan smote the garison of the Philistims, that was in the hill: and it came to the Philistims eares: and Saul blewe the trumpet throughout all the land, saying, Heare, O yee Ebrewes.
Geba kah Philisti khohung te Jonathan loh a tloek tih Philisti rhoek loh a yaak uh. Te dongah Saul loh kho takuem ah tuki a ueng tih, “Hebrew rhoek loh ya saeh,” a ti nah.
4 And al Israel heard say, Saul hath destroied a garison of the Philistims: wherefore Israel was had in abomination with the Philistims: and the people gathered together after Saul to Gilgal.
Israel pum loh a yaak uh vaengah, “Saul loh Philisti khohung a tloek dongah Israel he Philisti ham a bo rhim coeng,” a ti uh. Te dongah pilnam khaw Gilgal kah Saul hnukah bukbuk pang uh.
5 The Philistims also gathered themselues together to fight with Israel, thirty thousand charets, and sixe thousande horsemen: for the people was like the sand which is by the seas side in multitude, and came vp, and pitched in Michmash Eastward from Beth-auen.
Te dongah Philisti loh Israel te vathoh thil ham, leng thawng sawmthum neh marhang caem thawng rhuk neh pilnam te tuipuei tuikaeng kah laivin yet la taai uh. Te phoeiah cet uh tih Bethaven khothoeng Mikmash ah rhaeh uh.
6 And when the men of Israel saw that they were in a strait (for the people were in distresse) the people hid themselues in caues, and in holdes, and in rockes, and in towres, and in pittes.
Pilnam taengah lai a suk pah tih puen a cak te Israel hlang loh a hmuh vaengah pilnam tah lungko khuila, hlingpuep khuila, thaelpang khuila, hmuensang neh tangrhom khuila thuh uh.
7 And some of the Ebrewes went ouer Iorden vnto the lande of Gad and Gilead: and Saul was yet in Gilgal, and al the people for feare followed him.
Hebrew rhoek khaw Gad kho kah Jordan neh Gilead la kat uh. Tedae Saul amah tah Gilgal ah om pueng tih a hnukkah pilnam boeih long tah lakueng uh.
8 And he taried seuen daies, according vnto the time that Samuel had appointed: but Samuel came not to Gilgal, therefore the people were scattered from him.
Te dongah a khoning bangla Samuel te hnin rhih khuiah a rhing mai a rhing mai. Tedae Samuel te Gilgal la a pawk pawt dongah pilnam khaw Saul taeng lamloh taekyak uh.
9 And Saul sayde, Bring a burnt offering to me and peace offrings: and he offered a burnt offering.
Te dongah Saul loh, “Hmueihhlutnah neh rhoepnah te kai taengla hang khuen,” a ti nah tih hmueihhlutnah te a nawn.
10 And assoone as hee had made an ende of offering the burnt offering, beholde, Samuel came: and Saul went foorth to meete him, to salute him.
Tedae hmueihhlutnah a nawn te a khah van neh Samuel te tarha ha pawk tih anih doe ham neh uem hamla Saul te cet.
11 And Samuel saide, What hast thou done? Then Saul saide, Because I sawe that the people was scattred from me, and that thou camest not within the daies appoynted, and that the Philistims gathered themselues together to Michmash,
Samuel loh, “Balae na saii?” a ti nah hatah, Saul loh, “Pilnam he kai taeng lamloh haeh coeng tih tingtunnah tue vaengah namah khaw na pawk voel pawh tila ka hmuh. Te vaengah Philisti loh Mikmash ah taai uh coeng.
12 Therefore said I, The Philistims will come downe nowe vpon me to Gilgal, and I haue not made supplication vnto the Lord. I was bolde therefore and offred a burnt offring.
Tedae, “Philisti loh kai taengla Gilgal ah ha suntla uh pawn ni, BOEIPA maelhmai ka tong pawt ah,” ka ti dongah ka thiim uh tih hmueihhlutnah te ka nawn,” a ti nah.
13 And Samuel saide to Saul, Thou hast done foolishly: thou hast not kept the commandement of the Lord thy God, which he commanded thee: for the Lord had nowe stablished thy kingdome vpon Israel for euer.
Tedae Samuel loh Saul te, “Na pavai dongah ni BOEIPA na Pathen loh nang ng'uen olpaek na tuem pawh. Na ram he BOEIPA loh Israel taengah kumhal duela a thoh pawn suidae ta.
14 But nowe thy kingdom shall not continue: the Lord hath sought him a man after his owne heart, and the Lord hath commanded him to be gouernour ouer his people, because thou hast not kept that which the Lord had commanded thee.
Tedae na ram he pai voel mahpawh. BOEIPA loh nang ng'uen te na tuem pawt dongah amah kah thinko aka tong hlang ni BOEIPA loh a toem, anih te BOEIPA loh a pilnam soah rhaengsang la a uen coeng,” a ti nah.
15 And Samuel arose, and gate him vp from Gilgal in Gibeah of Beniamin: and Saul nombred the people that were found with him, about sixe hundreth men.
Te phoeiah Samuel te thoo tih Gilgal lamloh Benjamin Gibeah la cet. Pilnam te Saul loh a soep vaengah hlang ya rhuk tluk amah taengah a om pah.
16 And Saul and Ionathan his sonne, and the people that were found with them, had their abiding in Gibeah of Beniamin: but the Philistims pitched in Michmash.
Saul, a capa Jonathan neh a taengkah aka om pilnam loh Benjamin Geba ah a om vaengah Philisti tah Mikmash ah rhaeh.
17 And there came out of the hoste of the Philistims three bandes to destroie, one bande turned vnto the way of Ophrah vnto the lande of Shual,
Te vaengah Philisti caem lamkah kutpo rhoek te, rhoi thum la coe uh tih rhoi at tah Shual kho kah Ophrah longpuei la hooi uh.
18 And another bad turned toward the way to Beth-horon, and the third band turned toward the way of the coast that looketh toward the valley of Zeboim, towarde the wildernesse.
Rhoi at te Bethhoron longpuei la hooi uh tih rhoi at te kolrhawk la aka dan khosoek rhi kah longpuei la hooi uh.
19 Then there was no smith founde throughout all the land of Israel: for the Philistims sayde, Lest the Ebrewes make them swordes or speares.
Te vaengah Israel kho tom ah kutthai ana om pawt hatah Philisti loh, “Hebrew te cunghang khaw, caai khaw saii uh phayoe ve,” a ti uh.
20 Wherefore all ye Israelites went downe to the Philistims, to sharpen euery man his share, his mattocke, and his axe, and his weeding hooke.
Tedae a thecung neh a tuktong mai khaw, a hai neh a thecung mai khaw hlang loh a tah ham vaengah tah Philisti te Israel pum loh a suntlak thiluh.
21 Yet they had a file for the shares, and for the mattockes, and for the picke forkes, and for the axes, and for to sharpen the goades.
Tedae thecung neh tuktong khaw, thingsong pathum neh hai khaw, ciksum a ten ham koi khaw yula man la a om pah.
22 So whe the day of battell was come, there was neither sworde nor speare founde in the handes of any of the people that were with Saul and with Ionathan: but onely with Saul and Ionathan his sonne was there founde.
Te dongah caemtloek tue a pha vaengah Saul neh Jonathan taengkah pilnam he pakhat kut dongah khaw cunghang neh caai hmu voel pawh. Tedae Saul neh a capa Jonathan taengah ah dawk hmuh la om.
23 And the garison of the Philistims came out to the passage of Michmash.
Te vaengah Philisti rhaltawt hmuen tah Mikmash lamkai la pawk coeng.
