< 1 Samuel 31 >

1 Now the Philistims fought against Israel, and the me of Israel fled away from ye Philistims, and they fell downe wounded in mount Gilboa.
Philisti loh Israel a vathoh thil tih, Israel hlang hlang rhoek tah Philisti mikhmuh lamloh rhaelrham uh. Te vaengah Gilboa tlang ah a rhok la cungku uh.
2 And the Philistims preassed sore vpon Saul and his sonnes, and slewe Ionathan, and Abinadab, and Malchishua Sauls sonnes.
Te vaengah Saul neh anih ca rhoek te Philisti loh meh a duep uh tih Saul ca rhoek Jonathan, Abinadab neh Malkhishua te Philisti loh a ngawn pah.
3 And when the battel went sore against Saul, the archers and bowmen hit him, and hee was sore wounded of the archers.
Saul taengah caemrhal a tlung coeng dongah hlang loh lii a kah neh anih te khoem tong uh. Te dongah lipom hma loh mat a tluek sak.
4 Then saide Saul vnto his armour bearer, Drawe out thy sworde, and thrust mee through therewith, lest the vncircumcised come and thrust me through and mocke me: but his armour bearer would not, for hee was sore afraid. Therefore Saul tooke a sworde and fell vpon it.
Te vaengah a hno phuei te Saul loh, “Na cunghang te phong lamtah kai n'thun mai laeh. Amih pumdul rhoek te ha pawk uh vaengah kai n'thun uh vetih m'poelyoe uh ve,” a ti nah. Tedae a hno phuei long tah bahoeng a rhih tih huem pah pawh. Te dongah Saul loh cunghang te a loh tih a bakop thil.
5 And when his armour bearer sawe that Saul was dead, he fell likewise vpon his sword, and dyed with him.
Saul a duek te a hno phuei loh a hmuh vaengah amah khaw a cunghang dongah cungku tih duek.
6 So Saul dyed, and his three sonnes, and his armour bearer, and all his men that same day together.
Hnin at dongah Saul neh a ca pathum, a hno phuei neh a hlang rhoek khaw rhenten boeih duek.
7 And when the men of Israel that were on the other side of the valley, and they of the other side Iorden saw that the men of Israel were put to flight, and that Saul and his sonnes were dead, then they left the cities, and ran away: and the Philistims came and dwelt in them.
Israel hlang rhoek a rhaelrham uh khaw, Saul te a pacaphung ah a duek uh te khaw, khopuei rhoek te a hnoo uh tih a rhaelrham uh dongah Philisti rhoek ha pawk uh tih a khuiah kho a sak uh khaw, tuikol rhalvang neh Jordan rhalvang kah Israel hlang rhoek loh a hmuh uh.
8 And on the morowe when the Philistims were come to spoyle them that were slaine, they founde Saul and his three sonnes lying in mount Gilboa,
A vuen ah rhok hloem ham Philisti rhoek ha pawk uh hatah Gilboa tlang ah Saul neh a ca rhoek pathum ana cungku te a hmuh uh.
9 And they cut off his head, and stripped him out of his armour, and sent into the land of ye Philistims on euery side, that they should publish it in the temple of their idoles, and among the people.
A lu te a tloek pa uh tih a hnopai te a pit uh. Te phoeiah amamih kah muei im neh pilnam taengah phong ham Philisti kaepvai kah kho tom la a tueih uh.
10 And they layed vp his armour in the house of Ashtaroth, but they hanged vp his body on the wall of Beth-shan.
A hnopai te Ashtoreth im ah a khueh uh tih a rhok te Bethshan vongtung ah a hen uh.
11 When the inhabitants of Iabesh Gilead heard, what the Philistims had done to Saul,
Philisti loh Saul a saii te Jabesh Gilead khosa rhoek a yaak.
12 Then they arose (as many as were strong men) and went all night, and tooke the body of Saul, and the bodies of his sonnes, from the wall of Beth-shan, and came to Iabesh, and burnt them there,
Te dongah tatthai hlang boeih loh thoo uh tih khoyin khing ah cet uh. Bethshan vongtung lamkah Saul rhok neh a ca rhoek kah rhok te a loh uh. Te phoeiah Jabesh la a khuen uh tih pahoi a tih uh.
13 And tooke their bones and buried them vnder a tree at Iabesh, and fasted seuen dayes.
A rhuh te a khuen uh tih Jabesh kah kolanhlaeng hmuiah a up uh tih hnin rhih a yaeh uh.
