1 Samuel 20
1 And David fled from Naioth in Ramah, and came and said before Jonathan, What have I done? what is my iniquity? and what is my sin before your father, that he seeks my life?
David chu Ramah gam'a Naioth a konin ajamdoh’in, Jonathan kom ajonin, “Ipi kabol’a, Ipi kabol khel hitam? Itobang gitlouna ipi um’a napan tha dinga eihol le le ham?” ati.
2 And he said to him, God forbid; you shall not die: behold, my father will do nothing either great or small, but that he will show it me: and why should my father hide this thing from me? it is not so.
Jonathan in, “Hichu dihlou ahi, nangma thipon nate, abol ding jouse thilneo hihen lang thil len hijongleh kei hetlouvin ima abolji poi, eihetsah jinai. Kapan hitobang thil hohi, kakoma aselguh louhel ding ahi,” tin ana nelkal in ahi.
3 And David swore moreover, and said, Your father certainly knows that I have found grace in your eyes; and he says, Let not Jonathan know this, lest he be grieved: but truly as the LORD lives, and as your soul lives, there is but a step between me and death.
Chuin David in Jonathan masang ah akihahsellin, “Napan iki golngai lhon hi kichentah’a ahetsoh kei ahi, hijeh chun amale ama akihouvin, Jonathan hetsah da tange, ipibolla alung kasuhnat ding ham? Ahinlah hingjing Pakai le nangma min pana kasei ahi keima le thina kikah hi kal khat seh bou uma ahi!” ati.
4 Then said Jonathan to David, Whatever your soul desires, I will even do it for you.
Jonathan in, “Ipi ti kakithopi thei ding ham neiseipeh in,” ati.
5 And David said to Jonathan, Behold, to morrow is the new moon, and I should not fail to sit with the king at meat: but let me go, that I may hide myself in the field to the third day at even.
David in adonbut in, “Jing nikho hi lhathah kut ahin, lengpa to ankong umkhom dingdol kahi, ahin keima jing nikho tengle loulaiya kakisela hichea chu nithum chan na nilhah tokah’a kaumden ding ahi,” ati.
6 If your father at all miss me, then say, David earnestly asked leave of me that he might run to Bethlehem his city: for there is a yearly sacrifice there for all the family.
“Napan hoiya che ham tia nahin doh’a ahileh, Bethlehem ain’ah kumseh kilhaina bol dingin kakom ah phalna athum’in ache’e tin seipeh in,” ati.
7 If he say thus, It is well; your servant shall have peace: but if he be very wroth, then be sure that evil is determined by him.
“Aman ‘Aphai!’ atia ahileh, thu anome ti nahet ding ahi. Ahinlah alung ahanna alung alhaso khah’a ahile, eithanom ahi ti nahet ding ahi.
8 Therefore you shall deal kindly with your servant; for you have brought your servant into a covenant of the LORD with you: notwithstanding, if there be in me iniquity, slay me yourself; for why should you bring me to your father?
Lungset tah in hiti chun neibolpeh in, thengsel’a kahenga Pakai ang’a nakitepna nit’in. amavang napa douna a themmo kahile nangmatah’in neithat jengin. Ahinlah nei joulhep hih beh in,” ati.
9 And Jonathan said, Far be it from you: for if I knew certainly that evil were determined by my father to come on you, then would not I tell it you?
Jonathan in, “Hitobang chu agel in geldan, kapan chutobang’a nangma tha nading lunggel neocha hijongle anei mong’a ahile, nang kahin mahetsah tei ding ahi,” ati.
10 Then said David to Jonathan, Who shall tell me? or what if your father answer you roughly?
Chuin David in, “Napa alunghang’e ahiloule alunghang poi tichu ken iti kahet thei ding ham?” tin adong in ahi.
11 And Jonathan said to David, Come, and let us go out into the field. And they went out both of them into the field.
Jonathan in adonbut’in, “Hungin loulai langa khun gapotdoh hite,” ati. Chule polam’ah akijotdoh khom lhonin ahi.
12 And Jonathan said to David, O LORD God of Israel, when I have sounded my father about to morrow any time, or the third day, and, behold, if there be good toward David, and I then send not to you, and show it you;
Chuti chun Jonathan in David komah, “Pakai Israel Pathen chu ahettohsah hijeng hen! Keiman jing tuphat don ahilouleh nithum joutengle, kappa dongin katin, nachung alungdam nah le thu kahin thot ding,
13 The LORD do so and much more to Jonathan: but if it please my father to do you evil, then I will show it you, and send you away, that you may go in peace: and the LORD be with you, as he has been with my father.
“Ahinlah ijem tia kappa alunghan’a nangma tha tei ding nagot’a, nangma na hindohtei tei nadinga keiman nahenga kaseipeh masat’a kasolmang lou poupouva ahileh Pakaiyin Jonathan kiti keima hi eibolsejo hen ahilou jongle eithat jeng hen. Pakaiyin kapa ana umpi bangin nang jong naumpi hen,” ati.
14 And you shall not only while yet I live show me the kindness of the LORD, that I die not:
“Neingailut monga ahileh, kahinkho aumlai sungsen Pakai ngailutna sangtah in nei ngailun. Ahinlah kathia ahileh,
15 But also you shall not cut off your kindness from my house for ever: no, not when the LORD has cut off the enemies of David every one from the face of the earth.
Kainsung mite din tahsan umtah ngailutna sangtah in hin ngailun chule Pakaiyin nagalmite jouse jong leiset a konin suhmang gamkei hen,” ati.
16 So Jonathan made a covenant with the house of David, saying, Let the LORD even require it at the hand of David’s enemies.
Hijeh chun Jonathan in David toh kitepna khat asemin, “Pakaiyin nagalmite jouse asugam keihen!” ati.
17 And Jonathan caused David to swear again, because he loved him: for he loved him as he loved his own soul.
Chule Jonathan in David chu ama aki ngailut bang banga angailut jeh chun, David in jong angailut din akitepsah kit tan ahi.
18 Then Jonathan said to David, To morrow is the new moon: and you shall be missed, because your seat will be empty.
Chuin Jonathan in, “Jing nikho le lhathah kut kimang ding ahin, natouna dokhang a-on jeh’a nakiholmo ding ahi,” ati.
19 And when you have stayed three days, then you shall go down quickly, and come to the place where you did hide yourself when the business was in hand, and shall remain by the stone Ezel.
“Athaini nilhah lam leh, tumasanga nakiselji na mun songpi pang mama’a chun che in lang gakisel tan.
20 And I will shoot three arrows on the side thereof, as though I shot at a mark.
Chule keima kahungdoh’a doikhat neibanga, thalchang thum hiche panga chu kahinkap ding ahi,” ati.
21 And, behold, I will send a lad, saying, Go, find out the arrows. If I expressly say to the lad, Behold, the arrows are on this side of you, take them; then come you: for there is peace to you, and no hurt; as the LORD lives.
“Chule chapang khat thal chang ho hol ding’a kahinsol ding ahi. Chule chapangpa jah’a, ‘Ven, thalchang ho chu nasihlam panga naume,’ tia kasei najah a ahile, hing jing Pakai mina kasei ahi, abonchan aphasoh keiye, imacha hahsatna aumpoi.
22 But if I say thus to the young man, Behold, the arrows are beyond you; go your way: for the LORD has sent you away.
Amavang keiman amajah’a, “Gamla jepmah chen, thal chang chu nakhel lamah aume, katia ahile, nalampia gangtah’in che jeng in, ajeh chu Pakaiyin nasolmang ahi,” ti hetna ahi,” ati.
23 And as touching the matter which you and I have spoken of, behold, the LORD be between you and me for ever.
“Chule Pakai ahettohsah ahijeh'in, ikitepna vang chu Pakaiyin tonsot geiya einitsah teitei lhon hen,” ati
24 So David hid himself in the field: and when the new moon was come, the king sat him down to eat meat.
Hitichun David chu loulaiyah akisellin, chule lhathah kut kiman na ahunglhun phat in, Lengpa chu, anne dingin atou lhatan ahi.
25 And the king sat on his seat, as at other times, even on a seat by the wall: and Jonathan arose, and Abner sat by Saul’s side, and David’s place was empty.
Chule lengpa chu nidanga bangin bangkoma touna chunga chun atouvin ahi. Jonathan toh akimai ngatton, chule Abner asih-lang ah atouve. Ahin David touna chu a-ongtai.
26 Nevertheless Saul spoke not any thing that day: for he thought, Something has befallen him, he is not clean; surely he is not clean.
Ahinlah Saul in hicheni chun imacha aseipoi, ajeh chu ama chunga thil thenglou khattou David asuhboh hinte, tia alunggel ahi.
27 And it came to pass on the morrow, which was the second day of the month, that David’s place was empty: and Saul said to Jonathan his son, Why comes not the son of Jesse to meat, neither yesterday, nor to day?
Ahinlah, ajinga jong David touna a-on kit phat in, Saul in Jonathan jah’a, “Ipi jeh’a Jesse chapa janhia jong tunia jong hunglou hitam?” tin adongtai.
28 And Jonathan answered Saul, David earnestly asked leave of me to go to Bethlehem:
Jonathan in, “David in Bethlehem a cheding in hatah in kakoma phalna athumin,
29 And he said, Let me go, I pray you; for our family has a sacrifice in the city; and my brother, he has commanded me to be there: and now, if I have found favor in your eyes, let me get away, I pray you, and see my brothers. Therefore he comes not to the king’s table.
Aman, ‘Lungset tah in, neichesah in, ajeh chu kainsung miten kumseh a kho sunga gan kilhaina kaneidiu ahin, chule kasopi te hotoh jong kakimupi nom’e, tin ataovin ahi. Hijeh a chu lengpa dokhang’a atouna ong’ah ahi,” atin ahi.
30 Then Saul’s anger was kindled against Jonathan, and he said to him, You son of the perverse rebellious woman, do not I know that you have chosen the son of Jesse to your own confusion, and to the confusion of your mother’s nakedness?
Chuin Jonathan chunga Saul alunghang behseh jengin, “Numei chaveinu chapa!” tin lunghang tah’in ahousen ahi. “Nalunggel hohi ken kahetlouva nagel ham? Nakhella lenga natungot ham? Nangma le nanu jumso pa,” ati.
31 For as long as the son of Jesse lives on the ground, you shall not be established, nor your kingdom. Why now send and fetch him to me, for he shall surely die.
“Jesse chapa David ahinlai sungsen, nang leng’in pang theipon nate. Tun chenlang gaholdoh in katha ding ahi,” ati.
32 And Jonathan answered Saul his father, and said to him, Why shall he be slain? what has he done?
Jonathan in, “Ipijeh’a kithat ding ham? Aman ipi abolset ham?” tin apa adongin ahi.
33 And Saul cast a javelin at him to smite him: whereby Jonathan knew that it was determined of his father to slay David.
Chuin Saul in achapa Jonathan chu thadingin tengchan akho jeng in ahi. Hichea kon chun Jonathan in jong apan David thading’a agot mong ahi tichu ahedoh tai.
34 So Jonathan arose from the table in fierce anger, and did eat no meat the second day of the month: for he was grieved for David, because his father had done him shame.
Hichun Jonathan chu lunghang tah’in dokhang akonin akipatdoh in, apan ajachat sah behseh jeh chun chuche kut ni ni lhin nichun an ane tapoi, David chu alungkhampi lheh tan ahi.
35 And it came to pass in the morning, that Jonathan went out into the field at the time appointed with David, and a little lad with him.
Ajing jingkah in David toh akitepna bangin, Jonathan chu chapang khat toh apotdoh lhon in, loujaova chun ache lhontai.
36 And he said to his lad, Run, find out now the arrows which I shoot. And as the lad ran, he shot an arrow beyond him.
Chuin aman chapangpa jah’a chun “ka kapgot thalchang hohi gaholdoh in,” ati. Chuin chapangpa chu alhaijel in ahile, Jonathan in akal langpeh a thalchang chu akap’in ahi.
37 And when the lad was come to the place of the arrow which Jonathan had shot, Jonathan cried after the lad, and said, Is not the arrow beyond you?
Chuin chapangpa chu Jonathan in akapdoh thalchang kom aphah phat ding konin, Jonathan in chapangpa jah-a, “Thalchang chu akal langpeh’ah achubouve,” atin ahi.
38 And Jonathan cried after the lad, Make speed, haste, stay not. And Jonathan’s lad gathered up the arrows, and came to his master.
Jonathanin chapangpa chu asamin, “Hikoma chun dingden hih in, agang gangin hinchoi loiyin,” ati. Chuin chapangpa chun thalchangho chu achom khomin, apu henga ahungtai.
39 But the lad knew not any thing: only Jonathan and David knew the matter.
Ahinlah chapangpa chun imacha ahepon, Jonathan le David in bou thil kibolho chu ahet lhon ahi.
40 And Jonathan gave his artillery to his lad, and said to him, Go, carry them to the city.
Chuin Jonathan in amanchah ho chu chapangpa apen, chenlang khopi sungah anapolut in tin asoltai.
41 And as soon as the lad was gone, David arose out of a place toward the south, and fell on his face to the ground, and bowed himself three times: and they kissed one another, and wept one with another, until David exceeded.
Chuin chapangpa apotdoh doh in, songlhuh pang’a akiselna a konin David chu ahung potdoh'in, thumveijen tollah amai asulut in Jonathan maiyah akunin, anilhon in amitlhipum in akikolto lhonin ana kivailhah lhon tai. Hichu Jonathan sangin David apona dehset in ahi.
42 And Jonathan said to David, Go in peace, for as much as we have sworn both of us in the name of the LORD, saying, The LORD be between me and you, and between my seed and your seed for ever. And he arose and departed: and Jonathan went into the city.
Jonathan in David komah, “Lungmong’in chetan, Pakai mina thengsel’a ikihahsel lhon nang le kei, na chilhahte le keiya din, ikitepna chu tonsot geiyin Pakaiyin eikoi jing u hen,” ati. Hichun David in adalhan, chule Jonathan jong khopi lam’ah akile kittai.
