1 Samuel 8
1 When Samuel was nowe become olde, he made his sonnes Iudges ouer Israel.
Samuel ateh lheh tan ahile, Israel lah’a thutan vaihom ding’in achapate apansah tai.
2 (And the name of his eldest sonne was Ioel, and the name of the second Abiah) euen Iudges in Beer-sheba.
Joel le Abijah chu achate lah’a akum tampen teni ahilhone, amani Beersheba khopi’ah thutan vaihom’in apang lhone.
3 And his sonnes walked not in his wayes, but turned aside after lucre, and tooke rewards, and peruerted the iudgement.
Ahivangin apa toh abang lhonpoi, sum lam’ah akitah lhonpoi. Amanin sum nehguh pou abol lhonin, thu adih in atanji lhon tapoi.
4 Wherefore all the Elders of Israel gathered them together, and came to Samuel vnto Ramah,
Achai’nan Israel upa ho jouse chu Ramah kho’ah Samuel toh lunggel khomna anei juvin ahi.
5 And said vnto him, Beholde, thou art olde, and thy sonnes walke not in thy wayes: make vs nowe a King to iudge vs like all nations.
Amahon, “Ven, nangla nateh lheh jengtan, nachate jong nangtoh abang lhonpon, Leng khat neipeuvin namdang ten anei banga thutan dingin,” atin aseipeh un ahi.
6 But the thing displeased Samuel, when they said, Giue vs a King to iudge vs: and Samuel prayed vnto the Lord.
Samuel vang chu athil ngaichat’u chung’ah chun alung alhaipoi, hijeh chun panpi ngaichan Pakai koma ache’in ahi.
7 And the Lord said vnto Samuel, Heare the voyce of the people in all that they shall say vnto thee: for they haue not cast thee away, but they haue cast me away, that I should not reigne ouer the.
Pakaiyin Samuel jah’a, “Nakoma asei jouseu bolpeh in, nang napaiju ahipoi, keijoh eipaiju ahibouve, amahon kei eidei lou u ahibouve, aleng diuva eidei lou u ahi,” tin adonbut tan ahi.
8 As they haue euer done since I brought them out of Egypt euen vnto this day, (and haue forsaken me, and serued other gods) euen so doe they vnto thee.
“Egypt gam'a kona kahin puidoh uva kipat’na gamchom mite indoi bou ahou nom jo uve. Tua jong hitobangma achu nang jong nabollu ahibouve,” ati.
9 Nowe therefore hearken vnto their voyce: howbeit yet testifie vnto them, and shewe them the maner of ye King that shall reigne ouer them.
“Asei jouseu chu bolpeh in, ahinlah leng khat in achunguva vai ahin hopna ding thua hin, kaangkhen chan gihsallin,” atipeh tai.
10 So Samuel told all the wordes of the Lord vnto the people that asked a King of him.
Hijeh chun Samuel in, Pakaiya kona gihna thuchang hochu Israel mite chu leng athumnao chungthu’ah chun aban ban’in ahetsah tan ahi.
11 And he saide, This shall be the maner of the King that shall reigne ouer you: he will take your sonnes, and appoint them to his charets, and to be his horsemen, and some shall runne before his charet.
Samuel Israelte jah’ah, “Leng nahin nei uva aman nachung’uva lengvai ahin hop tengle, Leng in nachateu chu alah’a sakol kangtalai hole sakol sepai dinga, chule sakol kangtalai masanga lhai dinga,
12 Also he will make them his captaines ouer thousands, and captaines ouer fifties, and to eare his ground, and to reape his haruest, and to make instruments of warre, and the thinges that serue for his charets.
Abangkhat chu sepai lah a jalamkai chule lamkai napeh dingu, abang kit chu pumthou chang loukaiya apan sah dingu, abangkhat chu kangtalai ase ho sema napan sah diu ahi,” ati.
13 He will also take your daughters and make them apoticaries, and cookes, and bakers.
“Lengpan nachanu teu amat uva anhon'a apansah uva, abang chu changlhah kang a apansah diu chujongle abangkhat chu thao namtwi sem’a apansah uva soh’a anei diu ahi.
14 And he will take your fieldes, and your vineyardes, and your best Oliue trees, and giue them to his seruants.
Nalou phalai ho jouse nalah peh uva lengpithei lei le olive leija abol uva athao alah tenguleh atohkhompi ho apeh ding’u ahi.
15 And he will take the tenth of your seede, and of your vineyards, and giue it to his Eunuches, and to his seruants.
Aman na chang-ga le lousoh ho akona soma khat alah ding chule vaibolla pang hole sohte ho apeh ding’u ahi.
16 And he will take your men seruants, and your maide seruants, and the chiefe of your yong men, and your asses, and put them to his worke.
Aman napasal houle, numei ho soh dia akimat a, chule nagancha hoilai lai ho ama dinga akilah ding ahi.
17 He will take the tenth of your sheepe, and ye shall be his seruants.
Aman na ganchahon ho jeng’a jong soma khat angeh ding, nachamlouva napeh ding ahi.
18 And ye shall crie out at that day, because of your King, whom ye haue chosen you, and the Lord will not heare you at that day.
Chuche nikho chuleh nanghon nakilhen’u lengpa jeh’a chu nahung ka diu chule Pakaiyin naka gin’u nangaipeh lou diu ahi,” tin aseipeh tai.
19 But the people would not heare the voyce of Samuel, but did say, Nay, but there shall be a King ouer vs.
Ahivangin mipite ho chun, “Hijeng jongleh Leng chu kadei nalaiyuve,” tin Samuel thusei chu angaisah dehpouvin ahi.
20 And we also will be like all other nations, and our King shall iudge vs, and goe out before vs, and fight our battels.
Hichun mipi ho chun, “Kakimvel uva gamdang ho bangin, kalengpau vin kachung uva thutan hen, gal kisat jeng’a jong hin eilamkai uhen,” ati tauvin ahi.
21 Therefore when Samuel heard all ye wordes of ye people, he rehearsed the in ye eares of ye Lord.
Hichun Samuel in Pakai kom’ah mipi ho thusei chu aseipeh kit in ahile,
22 And the Lord saide to Samuel, Hearken vnto their voyce, and make them a King. And Samuel said vnto the men of Israel, Goe euery man vnto his citie.
Pakaiyin, “Asei bang bang u chun bolpeh inlang, Leng chu petan,” ati. Hichun Samuel jong anom’in mipi teho chu ainlam cheh uva anung soltan ahi,
