1 Samuel 14
1 Then on a day Ionathan the sonne of Saul sayde vnto the yong man that bare his armour, Come and let vs goe ouer towarde the Philistims garison, that is yonder on the other side, but he tolde not his father.
Hnin at a om nen tah Saul capa Jonathan loh a hno phuei cadong te, “Halo lamtah rhalvang ah Philisti rhaltawt hmuen te paan sih,” a ti nah. Tedae a napa taengla puen pawh.
2 And Saul taried in the border of Gibeah vnder a pomegranate tree, which was in Migron, and the people that were with him, were about sixe hundreth men.
Te vaengah Saul tah Gibeah bawt ah, Migron kah tale thing hmuiah ngol tih a taengkah pilnam he hlang ya rhuk tluk om uh.
3 And Ahiah the sonne of Ahitub, Ichabods brother, the sonne of Phinehas, the sonne of Eli, was the Lordes Priest in Shiloh, and ware an Ephod: and the people knewe not that Ionathan was gone.
Te vaengah hnisui aka bai tih Shiloh ah BOEIPA kah khosoih la aka om Eli capa Phinekha koca Ikhabot mana Ahitub capa Ahijah khaw om. Tedae Jonathan a caeh te pilnam loh a ming moenih.
4 Nowe in the way whereby Ionathan sought to go ouer to the Philistims garison, there was a sharpe rocke on the one side, and a sharpe rocke on the other side: the name of the one was called Bozez, and the name of the other Seneh.
Philisti rhaltawt hmuen paan ham te Jonathan loh a laklo kah lamkai longah a mae. Te vaengah rhalvangan khat benah thaelpang cangngok la om tih rhalvangan khat benah thaelpang cangngok la om bal. Pakhat a ming ah Bozez tih pakhat tah a ming ah Seneh ni.
5 The one rocke stretched from the North towarde Michmash, and the other was from the South toward Gibeah.
Lungto cangngok pakhat te tlangpuei kah Mikmash imdan ah, pakhat te tuithim kah Geba imdan ah tungpuei la pai.
6 And Ionathan saide to the yong man that bare his armour, Come, and let vs goe ouer vnto the garison of these vncircumcised: it may be that the Lord will worke with vs: for it is not hard to the Lord to saue with many, or with fewe.
Jonathan loh a hno phuei cadong te, “Cet sih lamtah, pumdul rhoek kah rhaltawt hmuen ke paan sih. Amih te BOEIPA loh mamih ham a saii khaming. A yol a yet neh khang ham te BOEIPA taengah kanghalhkung a om moenih,” a ti nah.
7 And he that bare his armour, saide vnto him, Doe all that is in thine heart: goe where it pleaseth thee: beholde, I am with thee as thine heart desireth.
Te dongah a hno phuei loh, “Na thinko ah aka om te tah boeih saii ngawn. Na ngaih bangla vikvuek uh ngawn, na thinko kah bangla nang taengah ka om ngawn he,” a ti nah.
8 Then said Ionathan, Beholde, we goe ouer vnto those men, and will shewe our selues vnto them.
Te vaengah Jonathan loh, “Mamih rhoi loh hlang te m'paan coeng tih amih taengla m'phoe pawn ni he.
9 If they say on this wise to vs, Tarie vntill we come to you, then we will stand still in our place, and not goe vp to them.
Tedae mamih rhoi taengah ni, ‘Nangmih taengla kaimih ka pawk hil duem rhoi dae,’ a ti uh atah mah paihmuen ah pai sih lamtah amih taengla cet boel sih,” a ti nah.
10 But if they say, Come vp vnto vs, then we will goe vp: for the Lord hath deliuered them into our hande: and this shall be a signe vnto vs.
Tedae, “‘Kaimih taengla ha luei laeh,’ a ti uh van atah luei van sih. Amih te BOEIPA loh mamih kut dongah m'paek coeng dongah tahae kah he mamih ham miknoek la om coeng,” a ti nah.
11 So they both shewed themselues vnto the garison of the Philistims: and the Philistims said, See, the Ebrewes come out of the holes wherein they had hid themselues.
Te phoeiah amih rhoi khaw Philisti rhaltawt hmuen taengla a moe rhoi hatah Philisti rhoek loh, “Aka thuh uh tangtae Hebrew loh a khui lamkah ha moe ke,” a ti uh.
12 And the men of the garison answered Ionathan, and his armour bearer, and said, Come vp to vs: for we will shewe you a thing. Then Ionathan said vnto his armour bearer, Come vp after me: for the Lord hath deliuered them into the hand of Israel.
Te dongah rhaltawt hlang rhoek loh Jonathan neh a hno phuei te a doo tih, “Kaimih taengla ha luei rhoi lamtah nangmih rhoi te olka kan thuituen eh,” a ti nah. Te dongah a hno phuei te Jonathan loh, “Kai hnukah halo laeh, amih he BOEIPA loh Israel kut dongah a paek coeng,” a ti nah.
13 So Ionathan went vp vpon his hands and vpon his feete, and his armour bearer after him: and some fell before Ionathan, and his armour bearer slewe others after him.
Jonathan te a kut a kho neh a luei vaengah a hno phuei loh a hnukah a rhoi van. Te vaengah Jonathan mikhmuh kah aka cungku rhoek te a hno phuei loh a hnukah a ngawn pah.
14 So the first slaughter which Ionathan and his armour bearer made, was about twentie men, as it were within halfe an acre of land which two oxen plowe.
Jonathan neh a hno phuei loh a tloek lamhma dongah khohmuen kah rhoi hma ngancawn ah hlang pakul tluk tah hmasoe la om.
15 And there was a feare in the hoste, and in the field, and among all the people: the garison also, and they that went out to spoyle, were afraid themselues: and the earth trembled: for it was striken with feare by God.
Te vaengah lambong khuiah khaw, lohma ah khaw, rhaltawt hmuen kahpilnam boeih khuiah khaw thuennah om. Kutcaihnah neh amih khaw a lakueng uh vaengah diklai te tlai tih Pathen taengkah thuennah bangla om.
16 Then the watchmen of Saul in Gibeah of Beniamin sawe: and beholde, the multitude was discomfited, and smitten as they went.
Benjamin Gibeah kah Saul kah rhaltawt rhoek loh a sawt uh vaengah tah hlangping te tarha paci tih he ben he bang la a caeh pah.
17 Therefore saide Saul vnto the people that were with him, Search nowe and see, who is gone from vs. And when they had nombred, beholde, Ionathan and his armour bearer were not there.
Te dongah Saul loh a taengkah pilnam te, “So uh lah, mamih taeng lamkah aka cet rhoek te thuep uh lah,” a ti nah. Te vaengah Jonathan neh a hno phuei te hah tarha a tae uh.
18 And Saul said vnto Ahiah, Bring hither the Arke of God (for the Arke of God was at that time with the children of Israel)
Tekah khohnin ah Pathen kah thingkawng he Israel ca rhoek taengla a om coeng dongah Ahijah te Saul loh, “Pathen kah thingkawng te hang khuen,” a ti nah.
19 And while Saul talked vnto the Priest, the noyse that was in the hoste of the Philistims, spred farther abroade, and encreased: therefore Saul said vnto the Priest, Withdraw thine hand.
Saul loh khosoih te a voek vaengah Philisti rhaehhmuen khuikah hlangping aka pongpa te a yet la muep pongpa uh. Te dongah khosoih te Saul loh, “Na kut te vawk poem ne,” a ti nah.
20 And Saul was assembled with all the people that were with him, and they came to the battell: and behold, euery mans sworde was against his fellow, and there was a very great discomfiture.
Te daengah Saul neh a taengkah pilnam pum te a hueh tih caem te a paan uh. Tedae hlang kah cunghang loh a hui te a cuk thil tarha dongah soekloeknah loh len khungdaeng.
21 Moreouer, the Ebrewes that were with the Philistims beforetime, and were come with them into all partes of the hoste, euen they also turned to be with the Israelites that were with Saul and Ionathan.
Hebrew rhoek loh hlaem hlavai ah tah Philisti taengla om uh tih rhaehhmuen kaepvai ah amih taengla cet uh. Tedae amih khaw Saul neh Jonathan taengkah Israel taengla koep om uh.
22 Also all the men of Israel which had hid themselues in mount Ephraim, when they heard, that the Philistims were fled, they followed after them in the battell.
Philisti rhoek rhaelrham coeng tila Ephraim tlang ah aka thuh Israel hlang boeih loh a yaak uh vaengah caemtloek dongah amih taengah koep kibaeng uh.
23 And so the Lord saued Israel that day: and the battell continued vnto Beth-auen.
Tekah khohnin ah Israel te BOEIPA loh a khang dongah caem loh Bethaven a poeng phai.
24 And at that time the men of Israel were pressed with hunger: for Saul charged the people with an othe, saying, Cursed be the man that eateth foode till night, that I may be auenged of mine enemies: so none of the people tasted any sustenance.
Te khohnin ah Israel hlang te a tueihno coeng. Saul loh pilnam te a tap tih, “Hlaem duela buh aka ca hlang te tah thaephoei thil saeh, ka thunkha soah phu ka loh vaengah,” a ti. Te dongah pilnam boeih loh buh ten pawh.
25 And all they of the land came to a wood, where hony lay vpon the ground.
Te daengah khohmuen pum loh duup neh diklai hman kah khoitui aka om te a paan uh pueng.
26 And the people came into the wood, and beholde, the hony dropped, and no man mooued his hand to his mouth: for the people feared the othe.
Pilnam loh duup khuiah khoitui tuicip te lawt a thoeng thil. Tedae olhlo te pilnam loh a rhih dongah a ka khuila a kut puei pawh.
27 But Ionathan heard not when his father charged the people with the othe: wherefore he put foorth the ende of the rod that was in his hand, and dipt it in an hony combe, and put his hand to his mouth, and his eyes receiued sight.
Tedae a napa loh pilnam a toem a ngam vaengah Jonathan loh ya pawh. Te dongah a kut dongkah caitueng hmuidong te a khoh tih duup kah khoitui khuila a nuem. A hmuh lawt neh a kut te a ka dongla a coh hatah a mik a tueng pah.
28 Then answered one of the people, and said, Thy father made the people to sweare, saying, Cursed be the man that eateth sustenance this day: and the people were faint.
Te vaengah pilnam khuikah hlang pakhat loh a doo tih, “Pilnam te na pa loh ol a caeng a caeng tih, ‘Tihnin ah caak aka ca hlang tah thaephoei thil la om coeng,’ a ti nah dongah pilnam he lamlum,” a ti nah.
29 Then said Ionathan, My father hath troubled the land: see nowe howe mine eyes are made cleare, because I haue tasted a litle of this honie:
Te vaengah Jonathan loh, “Khohmuen kongah a pa loh n'lawn coeng. He khoitui bet ka ten dongah ka mik a tueng he hmu uh van lah.
30 Howe much more, if the people had eaten to day of the spoyle of their enemies which they found? for had there not bene nowe a greater slaughter among the Philistims?
A thunkha kah kutbuem a hmuh uh te pilnam loh tihnin ah ca lammah ca van mai koinih Philisti khuiah hmasoe yet pawt suidae a?” a ti.
31 And they smote the Philistims that day, from Michmash to Aiialon: and the people were exceeding faint.
Tekah khohnin ah Philisti te Mikmash lamloh Aijalon duela a tloek uh tih pilnam khaw mat tawn.
32 So the people turned to the spoile, and tooke sheepe, and oxen, and calues, and slewe them on the ground, and the people did eate them with the blood.
Te tlam te a saii vaengah pilnam te kutbuem kutbuem dongla cu. Te phoeiah boiva khaw, saelhung khaw, saelhung ca khaw a loh uh. Te te diklai ah a ngawn uh tih a thii khaw pilnam loh a caak thil.
33 Then men tolde Saul, saying, Beholde, the people sinne against the Lord, in that they eate with the blood. And he saide, Ye haue trespassed: roule a great stone vnto me this day.
Te dongah Saul taengla puen uh tih, “Thii a caak dongah pilnam loh BOEIPA taengah tholh uh coeng ke,” a ti nah. Tedae, “Na hnukpoh uh tih tihnin ah kai taengla lungnu nam paluet uh,” a ti nah.
34 Againe Saul said, Goe abroade among the people, and bid them bring me euery man his oxe, and euery man his sheepe, and slay them here, and eate and sinne not against the Lord in eating with the blood. And ye people brought euery man his oxe in his hand that night, and slew them there.
Te phoeiah Saul loh, “Pilnam taengah taekyak uh lamtah amih te thui pah. Hlang boeih loh kai taengla a vaito khaw, hlang boeih loh a tu hang khuen saeh. He ah ngawn uh lamtah ca uh. Tedae a thii neh na caak ham tah BOEIPA taengah na tholh uh pawt nim?” a ti nah. Te dongah khoyin ah tah pilnam boeih loh amah kah vaito te a kut dongah rhip a khuen uh tih pahoi a ngawn uh.
35 Then Saul made an altar vnto the Lord, and that was the first altar that he made vnto the Lord.
Te vaengah Saul loh BOEIPA ham hmueihtuk a suem te anih loh BOEIPA ham lamhma cuek a suem hmueihtuk la om.
36 And Saul saide, Let vs goe downe after the Philistims by night, and spoyle them vntill the morning shine, and let vs not leaue a man of them. And they saide, Doe whatsoeuer thou thinkest best. Then saide the Priest, Let vs drawe neere hither vnto God.
Te phoeiah Saul loh, “Khoyin ah Philisti hnuk te suntlak thil sih lamtah mincang khosae duela amih te poelyoe sih, amih hlang te hlun boel sih,” a ti nah hatah, “Na mik dongah aka then sarhui tah saii laeh,” a ti na uh. Tedae khosoih longtah, “Pathen taengla pahoi nawn uh sih,” a ti nah.
37 So Saul asked of God, saying, Shall I goe downe after ye Philistims? wilt thou deliuer them into the hands of Israel? But he answered him not at that time.
Te dongah Pathen te Saul loh, “Philisti hnukah ka suntla aya? Amih ke Israel kut ah na paek aya?” tila a dawt. Tedae tekah khohnin ah anih te doo pawh.
38 And Saul said, All ye chiefe of the people, come ye hither, and knowe, and see by whom this sinne is done this day.
Te dongah Saul loh, “Pilnam te a cong cong ah boeih ha mop saeh lamtah ming uh saeh. Tihnin kah aka om tholhnah he hmu uh van saeh.
39 For as the Lord liueth, which saueth Israel, though it be done by Ionathan my sonne, he shall dye the death. But none of all the people answered him.
BOEIPA kah hingnah dongah Israel he a khang. Te loh ka ca Jonathan om puei mai cakhaw Jonathan he duek rhoe duek saeh,” a ti. Tedae pilnam boeih loh anih te doo voel pawh.
40 Then he saide vnto all Israel, Be ye on one side, and I and Ionathan my sonne will be on the other side. And the people saide vnto Saul, Doe what thou thinkest best.
Te phoeiah, “Nangmih Israel pum te rhalvangan pakhat ah om lamtah kai neh ka capa Jonathan tah rhalvangan pakhat ah ka om eh,” a ti nah. Tedae Saul te pilnam loh, “Na mikhmuh ah aka then tah saii ngawn,” a ti na.
41 Then Saul said vnto the Lord God of Israel, Giue a perfite lot. And Ionathan and Saul were taken, but the people escaped.
Te dongah Israel Pathen BOEIPA te Saul loh, “A cuemthuek mah m'pae,” a ti nah. Te dongah Jonathan neh Saul te a tuuk tih pilnam te loeih.
42 And Saul saide, Cast lot betweene me and Ionathan my sonne. And Ionathan was taken.
Saul loh, “Kai laklo neh ka capa Jonathan laklo ah hmulung naan lah,” a ti nah tih Jonathan a tuuk.
43 Then Saul said to Ionathan, Tell me what thou hast done. And Ionathan tolde him, and said, I tasted a litle hony with the ende of the rod, that was in mine hand, and loe, I must die.
Te phoeiah Saul loh Jonathan te, “Na saii te kai taengah thui lah,” a ti nah. Te dongah Jonathan loh anih taengla a puen pah tih, “Khoitui a yol, ka kut dongkah caitueng hmuidong kah te ka ten la ka ten mai nen nim kai ka duek tarha eh?” a ti nah.
44 Againe Saul answered, God doe so and more also, vnlesse thou die the death, Ionathan.
Saul loh, “Jonathan! duek khaw duek laeh, Pathen loh n'saii vetih n'talh bal ve,” a ti nah.
45 And the people said vnto Saul, Shall Ionathan die, who hath so mightily deliuered Israel? God forbid. As the Lord liueth, there shall not one heare of his head fall to the ground: for he hath wrought with God this day. So the people deliuered Ionathan that he dyed not.
Tedae Saul taengah pilnam loh, “Israel khuiah khangnah a len la aka saii Jonathan te duek saeh e?

Te dongah Jonathan te pilnam loh a lat tih duek pawh.
46 Then Saul came vp from the Philistims: and the Philistims went to their owne place.
Te daengah Saul khaw Philisti hnuk lamloh vik nong tih Philisti khaw amah hmuen la cet uh.
47 So Saul helde the kingdome ouer Israel, and fought against all his enemies on euery side, against Moab, and against the children of Ammon, and against Edom, and against the Kings of Zobah, and against the Philistims: and whithersoeuer he went, he handled them as wicked men.

48 He gathered also an hoste and smote Amalek, and deliuered Israel out of the handes of them that spoyled them.
Caem neh a saii tih Amalek te a tloek dongah anih aka rheth kut lamloh Israel te a huul.
49 Nowe the sonnes of Saul were Ionathan, and Ishui, and Malchishua: and the names of his two daughters, the elder was called Merab, and the yonger was named Michal.
Saul ca rhoek he Jonathan khaw, Ishee khaw, Malkhishua khaw, a canu rhoi khaw a ming om uh. A canu a ham ming tah Merab tih a noe ming Mikhal ni.
50 And the name of Sauls wife was Ahinoam the daughter of Ahimaaz: and the name of his chiefe captaine was Abner the sonne of Ner, Sauls vncle.

51 And Kish was Sauls father: and Ner the father of Abner was the sonne of Abiel.
Kish he tah Saul kah a napa la om tih, Abiel capa Abner he tah Ner kah a napa la om.
52 And there was sore warre against the Philistims all the dayes of Saul: and whomsoeuer Saul sawe to be a strong man, and meete for the warre, he tooke him vnto him.
Saul tue khuiah he Philisti neh caemtloek he a tlungluen la om. Te dongah Saul loh hlang boeih te hlangrhalh neh tatthai ca khaw boeih a hmuh tih amah taengla a coi.
