1 Kings 1

1 Now king David was old [and] stricken in years; and they covered him with clothes, but he gat no heat.

David lengpa jong ateh lheh tan, pon lum ijat asilpeh vang un, ama chu alum jou mong mong tapon ahi.

2 Wherefore his servants said unto him, Let there be sought for my lord the king a young virgin: and let her stand before the king, and let her cherish him, and let her lie in thy bosom, that my lord the king may get heat.

Hijeh chun alhacha a pang hon David lengpa jah a, “Kapu, nang dingin nungah theng khat naumpi di le najen le dingin hol’u hite. Chutileh aman lum nasahna din naluppi le phate,” atiuve.

3 So they sought for a fair damsel throughout all the coasts of Israel, and found Abishag a Shunammite, and brought her to the king.

Hiti chun amahon Israel gam sung pumpia nungah melhoi tah khat ahol un ahileh Shunem’a konin Abishag kitinu chu a mudoh un Lengpa kom a chun ahin puilut tauvin ahi.

4 And the damsel [was] very fair, and cherished the king, and ministered to him: but the king knew her not.

Hiche nungahnu chu ahoi lheh jengin ama chun lengpa chu ave sui jin ajen le tan ahi. Ahin lah lengpa chun aki timatpi thei tapon ahi.

5 Then Adonijah the son of Haggith exalted himself, saying, I will be king: and he prepared him chariots and horsemen, and fifty men to run before him.

Hiche phatlai chun David leh Haggith chapa Adonijah chun “Keima leng ka chan ding ahi” tin aki phongdoh tan ahi. Hichun aman sakol kangtalai tamtah aki semdoh in chu leh achung touthem ho jong akigo uvin chuleh ama masang nga lamhong a pang dingin mi-somnga a lhaisah in ahi.

6 And his father had not displeased him at any time in saying, Why hast thou done so? and he also [was a] very goodly [man; ] and [his mother] bare him after Absalom.

Apa David Lengpan la “Ipi bol’a na him?” tin khat vei cha jong aphoh kha pon chule ahil jong ahil khapon ahi. Hiche Adonijah hi Absalom pen jouva peng’a ahin, ama jong hi mi melhoi tah khat ahi.

7 And he conferred with Joab the son of Zeruiah, and with Abiathar the priest: and they following Adonijah helped [him].

Lengmun alogotna a hin Adonijah in Zeruiah chapa Joab le Abiathar thempu pachu ama langa pang dingin ana kijol lut in chule amanin jong anop peh tan ahi.

8 But Zadok the priest, and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and Nathan the prophet, and Shimei, and Rei, and the mighty men which [belonged] to David, were not with Adonijah.

Ahinlah Zadok thempupa leh Jehoiada chapa Benaiah, themgao Nathan, Simei, Rei chuleh David veng themma pang mihat hon vang ana panpi pouvin ahi.

9 And Adonijah slew sheep and oxen and fat cattle by the stone of Zoheleth, which [is] by En-rogel, and called all his brethren the king’s sons, and all the men of Judah the king’s servants:

Adonijah chun En-royal twinah komma Zoheleth song phunga chun ache in chule hilai mun ah chun kelngoiho, bongchal ho leh bongnou thaotah tah ho mangchan pumgo thilto ana boltan ahi. Hichea chun David lengpa chapate, a sopi ho chengse ho leh Judahh gamsung’a Lengpa ding’a pan mun neiho jouse jong ana koukhom in ahi.

10 But Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah, and the mighty men, and Solomon his brother, he called not.

Ahinlah aman Nathan themgao, Beniah chule lengpa veng tup a pang ho chujongleh a sopipa Solomon ana koupon ahi.

11 Wherefore Nathan spake unto Bath-sheba the mother of Solomon, saying, Hast thou not heard that Adonijah the son of Haggith doth reign, and David our lord knoweth [it] not?

Hichun Nathan chu Solomon nu Bethsheba komma achen, hiti hin aga dong tan ahi, “Haggith chapa Adonijah chu ama leh ama leng in aki sem tan ahi ti na jahdoh lou ham? Chuleh lengpan jong ana jahdoh khah lou ham?”

12 Now therefore come, let me, I pray thee, give thee counsel, that thou mayest save thine own life, and the life of thy son Solomon.

“Nang leh na chapa Solomon hinkho na hoidoh nom le keiman kaseipeh bang vang hin jui in,” atipeh tan ahi.

13 Go and get thee in unto king David, and say unto him, Didst not thou, my lord, O king, swear unto thine handmaid, saying, Assuredly Solomon thy son shall reign after me, and he shall sit upon my throne? why then doth Adonijah reign?

Tun gang tah in Lengpa komma chen lang hitin ga seitan “Kapu Lengpa, nang in na chapa Solomon hi kei banna leng hung chang ding ahi neina tipeh lou ham? tua hi i-atileh Adonijah khu leng chang hitam?” ati.

14 Behold, while thou yet talkest there with the king, I also will come in after thee, and confirm thy words.

Chule nang in hi tia chu akomma thu na na seipeh tah leh keima hung lut in ting na thusei chu ka hung suh det ding ahi.

15 And Bath-sheba went in unto the king into the chamber: and the king was very old; and Abishag the Shunammite ministered unto the king.

Hiti chun Bethsheba chu Lengpa lupna dan sunga chun alut in Lengpa chu ateh behseh tan Abishag chun ajen jing in ahi.

16 And Bath-sheba bowed, and did obeisance unto the king. And the king said, What wouldest thou?

Bethsheba chu lengpa ang’a chun abohkhup in ahileh aman, “Ipi nadei ham?” ahin tin ahi.

17 And she said unto him, My lord, thou swarest by the LORD thy God unto thine handmaid, [saying], Assuredly Solomon thy son shall reign after me, and he shall sit upon my throne.

Amanun adonbut in, “Kapu Lengpa nang in Pakai, Pathen masang’a na kihahsel in ka kom ah hitin nana seijin ahi: na chapa Solomon hi kei banna ka laltouna munna hi leng hung chang tei ding ahi tin nana seijin ahi.

18 And now, behold, Adonijah reigneth; and now, my lord the king, thou knowest [it] not:

Ahinlah tun Adonijah hi ama leh ama Lengin akisem tan ahinlah nangin na hepha pon ahi.

19 And he hath slain oxen and fat cattle and sheep in abundance, and hath called all the sons of the king, and Abiathar the priest, and Joab the captain of the host: but Solomon thy servant hath he not called.

Aman bongchal ho, bongnou thaotah tah ho leh kelngoi ho athat in pumgo thilto aboltan, Lengpa chate dangse akouvin kei chapa Solomon akou pon chu leh aman themgao Abiathar leh sepai lamkai Joab jong akouvin ahi.

20 And thou, my lord, O king, the eyes of all Israel [are] upon thee, that thou shouldest tell them who shall sit on the throne of my lord the king after him.

Tuhin kapu Lengpa Israel mipite jousen nang banna leng chang ding hi koi pen na hisah ding ham? tia avet cheh u ahi,” ati.

21 Otherwise it shall come to pass, when my lord the king shall sleep with his fathers, that I and my son Solomon shall be counted offenders.

“Tua hi nang in pan nalah vahlou leh nathi nung leh ka chapa Solomon toh kei ni hi themmo nanei khat bang a eikibol lhon di ahitai,” ati.

22 And, lo, while she yet talked with the king, Nathan the prophet also came in.

Amanun hitia thu ana sei sung in Nathan themgao chu akom aga lhung in ahi.

23 And they told the king, saying, Behold Nathan the prophet. And when he was come in before the king, he bowed himself before the king with his face to the ground.

Nathan themgao ahung in na kimupi nom’e tichu Lengpa a seipeh tauvin, hichun Nathan themgao alut in Lengpa kom achun akhup boh in achun amai tol’a a sulut jeng tan ahi.

24 And Nathan said, My lord, O king, hast thou said, Adonijah shall reign after me, and he shall sit upon my throne?

Nathan in “Kapu Lengpa nangin, Adonijah hi nang banna leng changding’a nana phondoh khah em?

25 For he is gone down this day, and hath slain oxen and fat cattle and sheep in abundance, and hath called all the king’s sons, and the captains of the host, and Abiathar the priest; and, behold, they eat and drink before him, and say, God save king Adonijah.

Tu nin aman bongchal ho, bongnou thao tahtah ho leh kelngoi ho pumgo thilto abol in hiche’a chun Lengpa chate, sepai lamkai ho, Abiathar themgao pa akouvin ama hon aneuvin adon un leng Adoniah hingsot hen tin a sam un ahi.

26 But me, [even] me thy servant, and Zadok the priest, and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and thy servant Solomon, hath he not called.

Aman kei leh thempupa Zadok leh Beniah chu leh na soh Solomon jong akou pon ahi.

27 Is this thing done by my lord the king, and thou hast not shewed [it] unto thy servant, who should sit on the throne of my lord the king after him?

Kapu Lengpa nang in hiche hi nang ding’a panmun neiho hetsah louva nang banna leng chang ding hi nalhen khat tou hitam?” ati.

28 Then king David answered and said, Call me Bath-sheba. And she came into the king’s presence, and stood before the king.

David lengpan ahin donbut in ajah a, “Bethsheba chu ga kouvin,” ati. Hichun amanu ahung in Lengpa masanga ading tan ahi.

29 And the king sware, and said, [As] the LORD liveth, that hath redeemed my soul out of all distress,

Hichun Lengpan aki hahselna chu avel sei kit in, “Keiman hahsatna kato channa eina huhdoh hing jing Pakai minna kasei ahi.

30 Even as I sware unto thee by the LORD God of Israel, saying, Assuredly Solomon thy son shall reign after me, and he shall sit upon my throne in my stead; even so will I certainly do this day.

Na chapa Solomon chun keima bantah a lengmun chu Pakai Israel Pathen minna ka kitepna dungjuija tuni tah a hi alo ding ahi tai,” ati.

31 Then Bath-sheba bowed with [her] face to the earth, and did reverence to the king, and said, Let my lord king David live for ever.

Hichun Bethsheba chu akun in tol ah amai a sulut in Lengpa chu salam abol in asei tai, “Kapu Lengpa David hing sot hen!” ati.

32 And king David said, Call me Zadok the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada. And they came before the king.

Hichun David lengpan thu apen “Zadok thempupa, themgao Nathan le Jehoiada chapa Bennah ga kou un” ati. Ama ho lengpa angsung’a ahung lhunphat un,

33 The king also said unto them, Take with you the servants of your lord, and cause Solomon my son to ride upon mine own mule, and bring him down to Gihon:

Lengpan amaho kom ah asei tan ahi, “Solomon leh kei ding’a pan mun nikho nei ho chengse chu Gihon tui putna mun’a chun pui unlang chu leh Solomon chu keima sakol pol chung’a chun tousah un.

34 And let Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet anoint him there king over Israel: and blow ye with the trumpet, and say, God save king Solomon.

Hichea chun Thempupa Zadok le Themgao pa Nathan in Israel pumpi chung a Leng chang dingin Solomon chu thao ganu lhon hen lang saki pengkul chu mut un chuleh lengpa Solomon hingsot hen tin sam un.

35 Then ye shall come up after him, that he may come and sit upon my throne; for he shall be king in my stead: and I have appointed him to be ruler over Israel and over Judah.

Chujou teng hilanga hinle puikit un ka laltouna a tousah un. Keima Lengmun lo ding leh Israel leh Judahh chung’a vaihom dinga keiman ka pansah ahi tai,” ati.

36 And Benaiah the son of Jehoiada answered the king, and said, Amen: the LORD God of my lord the king say so [too].

Jehoiadah chapa Benaiah chun adonbut in “Hihen, Kapu Lengpa Pakai Pathen in jong hichu guilhun sah hen” ati.

37 As the LORD hath been with my lord the king, even so be he with Solomon, and make his throne greater than the throne of my lord king David.

“Kapu Lengpa nangma nana umpi jing bang in Pakaiyin Solomon jong umpi hen chuleh Solomon vaihopna gamchu nanga sang in letsah jo hen!” atiuvin ahi

38 So Zadok the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and the Cherethites, and the Pelethites, went down, and caused Solomon to ride upon king David’s mule, and brought him to Gihon.

Hiti chun Thempupa Zadok, Themgao pa Nathan leh Jehoiada chapa Benaiah chuleh Lengpa vesui sepai hon Gihon munlang’a chun Solomon chu apui jun apa sakolpol chunga chun a tousah un ahi.

39 And Zadok the priest took an horn of oil out of the tabernacle, and anointed Solomon. And they blew the trumpet; and all the people said, God save king Solomon.

Hiche mun achun thempupa Zadok chun indan thenga kon in Olive thao atheija um chu alan Solomon chu anu peh in ahi. Hijou chun saki sumkon chu amut un “Leng Solomon hingsot hen,” tin asam un ahi.

40 And all the people came up after him, and the people piped with pipes, and rejoiced with great joy, so that the earth rent with the sound of them.

Hiche jou chun mipihon Solomon chu Jerusalem geijin ajui jin kuli amut’un kipahtah injong a sam un, akipanao o-gin kithong tah a a sap u chun leiset jeng jong a kithin sah leu jengin ahi.

41 And Adonijah and all the guests that [were] with him heard [it] as they had made an end of eating. And when Joab heard the sound of the trumpet, he said, Wherefore [is this] noise of the city being in an uproar?

Adonijah leh aloi agolho chun golvah abol chai jouvin Solomon lengchan husa thong jejun ajauvin saki pengkul kimut gin chu Joab in ajah doh phat in, “Khopi sung khubanga choh jeju khu ipi kibolna hitan tem?” atin ahi.

42 And while he yet spake, behold, Jonathan the son of Abiathar the priest came: and Adonijah said unto him, Come in; for thou [art] a valiant man, and bringest good tidings.

Hiche thu chu asei pet tah'un, Abiather Thempupa chapa Jonathan chu ahung lhung tan ahileh Adonijah in “Hunglutnin ajeh chu nanghi mipha na hin na thu poh jong thuphahi ngei inte,” atin ahi.

43 And Jonathan answered and said to Adonijah, Verily our lord king David hath made Solomon king.

Jonathan in a donbut in ahinai saipoi David Lengpan tutah chun Solomon chu leng ahitai tin aphong doh in ahi” ati.

44 And the king hath sent with him Zadok the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and the Cherethites, and the Pelethites, and they have caused him to ride upon the king’s mule:

Lengpan ama chu Gihon geijin asol suh in, Zadok Thempu pa le Nathan Themgaopa leh Jehoiada chapa Benaiah toh Lengpa vesuija pang sepai hon ahin juijun ahi. Lengpa Sakolpol achu Solomon atousah un ahi.

45 And Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet have anointed him king in Gihon: and they are come up from thence rejoicing, so that the city rang again. This [is] the noise that ye have heard.

Zadok le Nathan in Gihon ah leng dingin thao anu lhon in ahi. Amaho chu tutah chun ahung kile uvin ahileh khopi pumpi chun a kipapi uva asap u ahi. Hichu ahi achoh jeju achu,

46 And also Solomon sitteth on the throne of the kingdom.

Hiche bana jong chu laltouna a Leng in a tou tan ahi.

47 And moreover the king’s servants came to bless our lord king David, saying, God make the name of Solomon better than thy name, and make his throne greater than thy throne. And the king bowed himself upon the bed.

Lengpa ding’a panmun nei Lamkai ho jousen jong leng David komma acheuvin Lengpa chu aga kipapi uvin, na Pathen in Solomon hi nang sangin minthang jo hen lang nang sang in jong vaihom lenjon hung kije sal jo hen atiuve. Lengpan jong alupna mun achun Pathen jana’n akun in ahi.

48 And also thus said the king, Blessed [be] the LORD God of Israel, which hath given [one] to sit on my throne this day, mine eyes even seeing [it].

Chuleh hiti chun aman “Israel Pathen chu thangvah in umhen, aman tuni’n keima hinkho sung in kamit mutah in ka khel’a laltouna a touding ei lhenpeh tan ahi” atin ahi.

49 And all the guests that [were] with Adonijah were afraid, and rose up, and went every man his way.

Hichun Adonijah loile golho sese chu tijatah'in anehkhom na’u dokhanga kon chun aki thecheh gam jeng un ahi.

50 And Adonijah feared because of Solomon, and arose, and went, and caught hold on the horns of the altar.

Adonijah chun Solomon akicha lheh jengin alhai jin muntheng’a maicham saki teni chu aga tuhchah jengin ahi.

51 And it was told Solomon, saying, Behold, Adonijah feareth king Solomon: for, lo, he hath caught hold on the horns of the altar, saying, Let king Solomon swear unto me to day that he will not slay his servant with the sword.

Adonijah chun kichatah in maichama saki teni chu atuh chah jeng e tithu ahung kithang in Leng Solomon in jong ajadoh tan ahi. Hichun Adonijah jong ataovin “Leng Solomon in eitha louna dingin ki hahsel hen” tin ahi.

52 And Solomon said, If he will shew himself a worthy man, there shall not an hair of him fall to the earth: but if wickedness shall be found in him, he shall die.

Solomon in a donbut in, “Ama kitongkha ponte, ahinla achunga a phatmona aki mudoh leh thi ding ahi,” ati.

53 So king Solomon sent, and they brought him down from the altar. And he came and bowed himself to king Solomon: and Solomon said unto him, Go to thine house.

Hiti chun Solomon in Adonijah chu akouvin ahi leh ama chu maichamma konin ama kom apui lut un, Ama jana neitah in Solomon Lengpa ang-a akun in ahileh aman na inlang’a che tan,” atin ahi.
