Kings I 30
1 And it came to pass when David and his men had entered Sekelac on the third day, that Amalec had made an incursion upon the south, and upon Sekelac, and struck Sekelac, and burnt it with fire.
Nithum jouvin, David le aloite ain’u Ziklag khopi agalhun phatun, Amalek miten Negev chule Ziklag ana sat uva, Ziklag khopi chu meiya ana hal vam’u agatoh khauvin ahi.
2 And as to the women and all things that were in it, great and small, they killed neither man nor woman, but carried them captives, and went on their way.
Mihem khatcha that louvin, numeile chapang gei geiyin ana kaimang uvin ahi.
3 And David and his men came into the city, and, behold, it was burnt with fire; and their wives, and their sons, and their daughters were carried captive.
Chuin David le amihon thilsoh le akisuh chimit chu amuva chule insung uva thil anasoh ho amu phat uvin,
4 And David and his men lifted up their voice, and wept till there was no longer any power within them to weep.
Amaho ha kan akap’un, acholdeh chan geiyin akap un ahi.
5 And both the wives of David were carried captive, Achinaam, the Jezraelitess, and Abigaia the wife of Nabal the Carmelite.
David jiteni, Jezreela akona Ahinoam chule Carmel akona Nabal meithai, Abigail, teni jong chu akaimang nalah uva chu jaotha’ah ahi.
6 And David was greatly distressed, because the people spoke of stoning him, because the soul of all the people was grieved, each for his sons and his daughters: but David strengthened himself in the Lord his God.
Hijeh chun, David jong alung himo behseh jengtan ahi, ajeh chu amiteho jile chateho jong ana kaimang u ahi. Ahinlah David in Pathen akon in thahatna akimu ben ahi.
7 And David said to Abiathar the priest the son of Achimelech, Bring near the ephod.
Hijeh chun Abiathar in thempupa jah’a, “Thempu von ompho chu neihin hoipeh in,” ati. Hijeh chun Abiathar in hichu ahinchoi peh’in ahi
8 And David enquired of the Lord, saying, Shall I pursue after this troop? shall I overtake them? and he said to him, Pursue, for you shall surely overtake them, and you shall surely rescue [the captives].
Chuin David in jong Pakai adongin, “Hiche Amalek mite hi anung’u del leng kaphah ding hinam?” atileh Pakaiyin ahin adonbut in, “Henge, dellin, akaimangsa jouse jong nanung mu kit ding ahi!” ati.
9 So David went, he an the six hundred men with him, an they come as far as the brook Bosor, and the superfluous ones stopped.
Hijeh chun David in mi jagup akigot in, Besor vadung ahungpha tauve.
10 And he pursued them with four hundred men; and there remained behind two hundred men, who tarried on the other side of the brook Bosor.
Sepaite jani vang chu Besor vadung agalkai ding’u chu alel behseh jeh’u chun, David chun amoh cheng mi jali toh adeltou peh uvin ahi.
11 And they find an Egyptian in the field, and they take him, and bring him to David; and they gave him bread and he ate, and they caused him to drink water.
Ache uva ahile gamlah ah Egypt mite khat amandoh uvin David henga ahin akailut tauve. Amahon nehding changlhah phabep chule adonding twi apeuvin ahi.
12 And they gave him a piece of a cake of figs, and he ate, and his spirit was restored in him; for he had not eaten bread, and had not drunk water three days and three nights.
Chule theichang-ga a kisem changlhah lhon jong apeuvin aneh a adon jou phat in atha ahung hat dohtan ahi. Ajeh chu an nelou twidon louva nithum le janthum jen kelthoh a um anahitai.
13 And David said to him, Whose are you? and whence are you? and the young man the Egyptian said, I am the servant of an Amalekite; and my master left me, because I was taken ill three days ago.
Chuin David in, “Hoiya hungkon nahia, koimi nahim” tia adoh le, “Keima Egypt mi gollhang kahin, Amalek mikhat soh kahi, nithum masanga pat’a chu damlou kahi, kadammo a kipat’a ka pakaipan eidalhah ahitai.
14 And we made an incursion on the south of the Chelethite, and on the parts of Judea, and on the south of Chelub, and we burnt Sekelac with fire.
Judah gamsung a Chereth mite gamsung’a Negev khopi, Caleb phung mite gamsung kachom un, chule Ziklag khopi chu meiyin kahal lhah uva hung kile kahiuve,” ati.
15 And David said to him, Will you bring me down to this troop? And he said, Swear now to me by God, that you will not kill me, and that you will not deliver me into the hands of my master, and I will bring you down upon this troop.
Hichun David in, “Hiche michom ho koma chu neipuilut thei ding ham?” tia adoh le, gollhangpan, “Keima neitha da-a, chule kapu henga neipehdoh kit lou ding’a, Pathen min’a nakihahsel le, keiman napui nange,” ati.
16 So be brought him down there, and behold, they [were] scattered abroad upon the surface of the whole land, eating and drinking, and feasting by [reason of] all the great spoils which they had taken out of the land of the Philistines, and out of the land of Juda.
Hijeh chun David chu apuijin ahile amahon Amalek miteho chun Philistine gamsung le Judah gamsung’a kona achomdoh thilkeo simsen lou kipapina’a golnop abol uva, muntina akithe thang uva, ane pet u, adon pet u chule ala pet u, atohkha tauvin ahi.
17 And David came upon them, and struck them from the morning till the evening, and on the next day; and not one of them escaped, except four hundred young men, who were mounted on camels, and fled.
Chuti chun David le amiten anokhum un, jan khovah keiyin Amalek mite chu athat un ajing nilhum keiyin nilhangkai chan geiyin athat jing un ahi. Gollhang mi jali sangong sang chunga tou’a ajamdoh ho tilou adangse vang athat soh hel in ahi.
18 And David recovered all that the Amalekites had taken, and he rescued both his wives.
Amalek miten alahpeh jouseu chu David in abonchan ainneipi teni jaonan anung lah peh kittai.
19 And nothing was lacking to them of great or small, either of the spoils, or the sons and daughters, or anything that they had taken of theirs; and David recovered all.
Imacha jong amangthah den aumpoi, aneo alen, chapa ahiloule chanu, abonchan akinung mu kittai.
20 And he took all the flocks, and the herds, and led them away before the spoils: and it was said of these spoils, These [are] the spoils of David.
David chun kelngoi hon le bonghon jouse jong abonchan anung lah peh kit in, amiten ahin hoilut soh tauve. Hichun amahon, “Hiche hi David in gal’a achom doh ho ahi,” atiuve.
21 And David comes to the two hundred men who were left behind that they should not follow after David, and he had caused them to remain by the brook of Bosor; and they came forth to meet David, and to meet his people with him: and David drew near to the people, and they asked him how he did.
Chuin David chu chol behseh jeh a Besor vadunga kidalha sepai jani heng’a achen, David le aloi adangho amuphat uvin ahung potdoh uvin, kipah le thanom tah in ahung lamtouvin ahi.
22 Then every ill-disposed and bad man of the soldiers who had gone with David, answered and said, Because they did not pursue together with us, we will not give them of the spoils which we have recovered, only let each one lead away with him his wife and his children, and let them return.
Ahin David mite lah miphalou boina sem jeng miphabep khat ho chun, “Hiche eihotoh kilhonkhom lou ho hin hiche thilkeo kichomdoh hohi kilah thei pouvinte,” ahin tiuve.
23 And David said, You shall not do so, after the Lord has delivered [the enemy] to us, and guarded us, and the Lord has delivered into our hands the troop that came against u.
Ahinlah David in, “Ahipoi, kasopi teho, hiche thilkeo chunga hin kilosepou hite. Aman damsella eiven uva, galte eijosah uva, ijakaija eikithopiuva,
24 And who will listen to these your words? for they are not inferior to us; for according to the portion of him that went down to the battle, so shall be the portion of him that abides with the baggage; they shall share alike.
Eihon hitia hi thu isei uleh kon nasei angai ding ham? Galkonpa chan jat chu thil ngahpa jong chang tei ding ahi,” tin ahin donbut in ahi.
25 And it came to pass from that day forward, that it became an ordinance and a custom in Israel until this day.
Hiche nia kipan chun David in chonna dan ding ana sem in, tuni geiyin Israel sunga chonna dan in akimangtai.
26 And David came to Sekelac, and sent of the spoils to the elders of Juda, and to his friends, saying, Behold [some] of the spoils of the enemies of the Lord;
Ziklag ahunglhun phat in, gal’a kihom doh thilkeo phabep chu aloi agol Judaho athot in hitin aseiye, “Hiche thilpeh hi nangho ding ahi, Pakai dougal teho a kon ahi,” ati.
27 to those in Baethsur, and to those in Rama of the south, and to those in Gethor.
Athilkeo athot hochu anoiya khomite ding hi ahi, Bethel, Ramoth-negev, Jattir,
28 And to those in Aroer, and to those in Ammadi, and to those in Saphi, and to those in Esthie,
Aroer, Siphmoth, Eshtermoa,
29 and to those in Geth, and to those in Cimath, and to those in Saphec, and to those in Themath, and to those in Carmel, and to those in the cities of Jeremeel, and to those in the cities of the Kenezite;
Jerah’meel khopi Racal, Ken mite khopi dung’a chengte,
30 and to those in Jerimuth, and to those in Bersabee, and to those in Nombe,
Hormah, Bor-ashan, Athach,
31 and to those in Chebron, and to all the places which David and his men had passed through.
Hebron chujongle David le asepaite toh akilon na muntin na athotsoh kei uvin ahi.
