< 1 Samuel 31 >

1 Now the Philistines fought against Israel: and the men of Israel fled from before the Philistines, and fell down slain in mount Gilboa.
Hot patetlah Filistinnaw ni Isarelnaw hah a tuk awh teh, Isarelnaw teh Filistinnaw hmalah a yawng awh teh, Gilboa mon vah a thei awh.
2 And the Philistines followed hard upon Saul and upon his sons; and the Philistines slew Jonathan, and Abinadab, and Malchi–shua, Saul’s sons.
Filistin taminaw ni Sawl hoi a capa hah poe a pâlei awh teh, Sawl capa Jonathan hoi Abinadab hoi Malkhishua hah a thei awh.
3 And the battle went sore against Saul, and the archers hit him; and he was sore wounded of the archers.
Sawl hah pueng hoi rek a saueng awh teh, pala kapatuemnaw ni a ma hah rek a pha awh teh, hmâ puenghoi a ca sak awh.
4 Then said Saul unto his armourbearer, Draw thy sword, and thrust me through therewith; lest these uncircumcised come and thrust me through, and abuse me. But his armourbearer would not; for he was sore afraid. Therefore Saul took a sword, and fell upon it.
Hot patetlah Sawl ni amae senehmaica ka sin koe, na tahloi hah rayu nateh, poukkayawng lah na thun leih. Hottelah na tet hoehpawiteh, vuensom ka a hoehnaw ni na pacekpahlek awh langvaih atipouh. Hatei, senehmaica ka sin e ni, thun ngai hoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, a taki poung. Hat torei teh, Sawl ni a tahloi hah a la teh a tabo sin.
5 And when his armourbearer saw that Saul was dead, he fell likewise upon his sword, and died with him.
Hahoi senehmaica ka sin e tami ni Sawl a due e hah a hmu toteh, ahni ni hai a tahloi a tabo sin van teh, cungtalah a due roi.
6 So Saul died, and his three sons, and his armourbearer, and all his men, that same day together.
Hot patetlah Sawl hoi a capa kathum touh hoi senehmaica ka sin e hoi a taminaw pueng hoi hot hnin roeroe vah a due awh.
7 And when the men of Israel that were on the other side of the valley, and they that were on the other side Jordan, saw that the men of Israel fled, and that Saul and his sons were dead, they forsook the cities, and fled; and the Philistines came and dwelt in them.
Ravo namran lah kaawm e Isarelnaw hoi Jordan namran lah kaawmnaw ni Isarelnaw a sung awh toe tie hoi Sawl hoi a capanaw a due awh toe tie a thai awh toteh, kho a tâco takhai awh teh a yawng awh. Hahoi Filistinnaw ni rek ao sin awh.
8 And it came to pass on the morrow, when the Philistines came to strip the slain, that they found Saul and his three sons fallen in mount Gilboa.
Hahoi teh, Filistinnaw ni a thei awh nae tangtho vah, senehmaica ka sin e a cei sin awh navah, Sawl hoi a capa kathum touh Gilboa mon koe a due awh e hah a hmu awh.
9 And they cut off his head, and stripped off his armour, and sent into the land of the Philistines round about, to publish it in the house of their idols, and among the people.
A lû a tâtueng pouh teh senehmaica a rading pouh awh. A kamthaw nah meikaphawk bawknae bawkim tangkuem hoi taminaw pueng koe pathang hanelah Filistin ram pueng dawk a pathang awh.
10 And they put his armour in the house of Ashtaroth: and they fastened his body to the wall of Beth–shan.
Hote senehmaica teh, Ashtaroth im vah a ta awh. A ro teh Bethshan kalupnae tapang dawk a vo awh.
11 And when the inhabitants of Jabesh–gilead heard of that which the Philistines had done to Saul;
Jabesh Gilead vah kaawmnaw ni Filistinnaw ni Sawl ro dawk a sak awh e a hmu awh toteh,
12 All the valiant men arose, and went all night, and took the body of Saul and the bodies of his sons from the wall of Beth–shan, and came to Jabesh, and burnt them there.
Tami tarankahawi poung ni a thaw teh, karum khodai a cei awh teh, Bethshan kalupnae tapang dawk e Sawl hoi a capanaw ro hah a la awh. Jabesh a pha awh toteh, hawvah a pâeng awh.
13 And they took their bones, and buried them under a tree at Jabesh, and fasted seven days.
A hru hah a la awh teh, Jabesh e bengkeng thing rahim vah a pakawp awh teh hnin sari touh rawca a hai awh.
