1 Samuel 29
1 So the Philistims were gathered together with all their armies in Aphek: and the Israelites pitched by the fountaine, which is in Izreel.
Philisti loh a caem boeih te Aphek ah a coi uh tih, Israel rhoek khaw Jezreel tuiphuet ah rhaeh uh.
2 And the princes of the Philistims went foorth by hundreths and thousandes, but Dauid and his men came behinde with Achish.
Philisti boei rhoek tah yakhat nen khaw thawngkhat nen khaw kat uh dae David tah a hael ah a hlang rhoek neh Akhish neh kat uh.
3 Then saide the princes of the Philistims, What doe these Ebrewes here? And Achish said vnto the princes of the Philistims, Is not this Dauid the seruant of Saul the King of Israel, who hath bene with me these dayes, or these yeeres, and I haue found nothing in him, since he dwelt with me vnto this day?
Te vaengah Philisti mangpa rhoek loh, “Hebrew rhoek te banim ca?” a ti uh. Te dongah Philisti mangpa rhoek te Akhish loh, “Te te Israel manghai Saul kah sal David moenih a? Anih te kai taengah a kum la a hnin la om coeng ta. A koep hnin lamkah tihnin hil a lolh pakhat khaw anih pum dongah ka hmuh moenih,” a ti nah.
4 But the princes of the Philistims were wroth with him, and the princes of the Philistims said vnto him, Sende this fellow backe, that he may goe againe to his place which thou hast appointed him, and let him not goe downe with vs to battell, least that in the battell he be an aduersarie to vs: for wherewith should he obteine the fauour of his master? shoulde it not be with the heades of these men?
Tedae Philisti mangpa rhoek te anih taengah a thintoek uh. Te dongah amah vik te Philisti mangpa rhoek loh, “Tekah hlang te mael sak lamtah amah na hlah nah hmuen la bal saeh. Mamih neh caemtloek la ha suntla boel saeh. Caemtloek vaengah mamih taengah khingkhoekkung la om mahpawt nim? Ba nen lae a boei rhoek te a moeithen eh? Amih hlang rhoek kah a lu moenih a?
5 Is not this Dauid, of whome they sang in daunces, saying, Saul slewe his thousande, and Dauid his ten thousande?
Anih te David moenih a? Anih te lam neh a doo uh tih, ‘Saul loh thawngkhat, David loh thawngrha, thawngrha a ngawn coeng,’ a ti ta,” a ti uh.
6 Then Achish called Dauid, and said vnto him, As the Lord liueth, thou hast bene vpright and good in my sight, when thou wentest out and in with mee in the hoste, neither haue I founde euill with thee, since thou camest to me vnto this day, but the princes doe not fauour thee.
Akhish loh David te a khue tih, “BOEIPA kah hingnah dongah na thuem coeng. Na pongthoh khaw ka mikhmuh ah then tih rhaehhmuen ah khaw kamah taengah na pongpa mako. Kai taengla na pawk hnin lamloh tihnin due nang soah boethae ka hmuh moenih. Tedae boei rhoek kah mik dongah tah na then moenih.
7 Wherefore nowe returne, and go in peace, that thou displease not the princes of the Philistims.
Te dongah mael lamtah ngaimong la cet mai laeh. Philisti boei rhoek kah mikhmuh ah boethae saii boel mai,” a ti nah.
8 And Dauid said vnto Achish, But what haue I done? and what hast thou founde in thy seruant as long as I haue bene with thee vnto this day, that I may not goe and fight against the enemies of my lorde the King?
David loh Akhish te, “Tedae balae ka saii tih na mikhmuh ah ka om khohnin lamloh tahae khohnin duela na sal pum dongah balae na hmuh coeng. Ka boei thunkha manghai pataeng ka paan tih ka vathoh thil moenih,” a ti nah.
9 Achish then answered, and said to Dauid, I knowe thou pleasest mee, as an Angell of God: but the princes of the Philistims haue saide, Let him not goe vp with vs to battell.
Te dongah David te Akhish loh a doo tih, “Pathen puencawn bangla ka mikhmuh ah na then te ka ming dae Philisti mangpa rhoek long tah, ‘Caemtloek khuiah kaimih neh pongpa boel saeh,’ a ti uh.
10 Wherefore now rise vp earely in the morning with thy masters seruants that are come with thee: and when ye be vp earely, assoone as ye haue light, depart.
Te dongah namah neh naka pawk hmaih na boeipa kah sal rhoek neh mincang ah thoo uh. Mincang ah na thoo uh vetih kho a tueng neh pahoi na cet mako,” a ti nah.
11 So Dauid and his men rose vp earely to depart in the morning, and to returne into the lande of the Philistims: and the Philistims went vp to Izreel.
Te dongah David amah neh a hlang rhoek tah mincang ah caeh hamla thoo coeng tih Philisti kho la mael. Tedae Philisti rhoek tah Jezreel la cet uh.
