< Kings II 2 >

1 And it came to pass after this that David enquired of the Lord, saying, Shall I go up into one of the cities of Juda? and the Lord said to him, Go up. And David said, Whither shall I go up? and he said, To Chebron.
Hiche jouchun David in Pakai chu adongin, “Judah ho khopi khat pen pen akhu kalechi ding ham?” atin ahileh, Pakaiyin ahindonbut in, “henge kinunglen” ati. Hiche jouchun David in adong pei in, “hoichi pen khopi a kachi ding ham?” atin ahileh, Pakaiyin a donbut in Hebron khopi ah ati.
2 And David went up there to Chebron, [he] and both his wives, Achinaam the Jezraelitess, and Abigaia the wife of Nabal the Carmelite,
David jiteni chu Ahinoam kiti Jezreel mi le Carmel kho a Nabal kiti meithaipa jinu Abigail ahilhon ne. hitichun David le ajiteu
3 and the men that were with him, every one and his family; and they lived in the cities of Chebron.
Chuleh ama mite ho jouse leh a insung mite jouse chutoh Judah gam lamah akitol uvin, Hebron khopi kom ah chun acheng taovin ahi.
4 And the men of Judea come, and anoint David there to reign over the house of Juda; and they reported to David, saying, The men of Jabis of the country of Galaad have buried Saul.
Hichejou chun Judah gamma mikhat David komma ahungin, amapa chun David chu Judah mite jouse chunga leng din thao ahungnui. Hiti chun Saul vuija pang ho chu Jabesh – gilead mite ahiuve ti David in ajah doh phat chun,
5 And David sent messengers to the rulers of Jabis of the country of Galaad, and David said to them, Blessed be you of the Lord, because you have wrought this mercy toward your lord, even toward Saul the anointed of the Lord, and you have buried him and Jonathan his son.
Aman hiche thuthot hi aneitao vin ahi: “nangho Pakaiyin phatthei naboh uhen ajeh chu nanghon na pakai pao Saul chungah naki tahnao navetsah un chule phatah in nanavui jun ahi.
6 And now may the Lord deal in mercy and truth towards you: and I also will requite towards you this good deed, because you have done this.
Hijeh chun Pakaiyin ami ngailutna longlou chun naumpiu henlang chule kitahna neitah in nabol uhen! Chuguh hilouvin keima jeng in jong nathilpha bol nachung uva kipaman kapeh ding nahiuve, ati.
7 And now let your hands be made strong, and be valiant; for your master Saul is dead, and moreover the house of Juda have anointed me to be king over them.
Tun Saul athitan, hijeh chun keima leng thah din Judah mite thao einu taovin ahi, hijeh a chu keiman katep nahiuve Judah mite bangin keima din hangsan tah le kitah tah in pang uvin.”
8 But Abenner, the son of Ner, the commander-in-chief of Saul's army, took Jebosthe son of Saul, and brought him up from the camp to Manaem
Ahin Ner chapa Abner, Saul’s sepai jalamkaipa chu Saul’s chapa Ishbosheth chutoh Mahanaim lam ah achilhon tan ahi.
9 and made him king over the land of Galaad, and over Thasiri, and over Jezrael, and over Ephraim, and over Benjamin, and over all Israel.
Hiah chun Ishbosheth chu Gilead, Jezreel, Ephraim, Benjamin, Ashurites gamsung leh Israel pumpi jouse chunga Leng din akiphong doh tan ahi.
10 Jebosthe, Saul's son [was] forty years old, when he reigned over Israel; and he reigned two years, but not over the house of Juda, who followed David.
Saul’s chapa Ishbosheth chu kum somli alhing tan ahi Israel te chunga leng ahi chun, chule Mahanaim akon lengvai kumni ahinpo pan in ahi. alangkhat nin Judah mite vang chu David a din kitah tah in aum jing jeng un ahi.
11 And the days which David reigned in Chebron over the house of Juda were seven years and six months.
David in Hebron chu munpi in asem in, chule Judah mite chungah kum sagi le lhagup sung lengvai anapon ahi.
12 And Abenner the son of Ner went forth, and the servants of Jebosthe the son of Saul, from Manaem to Gabaon.
Nikhat Abner in Ishbosheth’s sepai hochu Mahanaim akon Gibeon lam apui in ahi.
13 And Joab the son of Saruia, and the servants of David, went forth from Chebron, and met them at the fountain of Gabaon, at the same place: and these sat down by the fountain on this side, and those by the fountain on that side.
Hiche phat chat chun, Zeruiah chapa Joab in David’s sepai hochun apuidoh in Gibeon twikul ah agakimupiu vin ahi. chule hiche mun ah chun alang lang in atou un akigar vettou vin ahi.
14 And Abenner said to Joab, Let now the young men arise, and play before us. And Joab said, Let them arise.
Chuin Abner in Joab ja ah aseiyin, “Isepai teu themkhat emasang lhon ah kidelsah hite.” Atin ahileh, “Joab jong anom tan ahi.”
15 And there arose and passed over by number twelve of the children of Benjamin, belonging to Jebosthe the son of Saul, and twelve of the servants of David.
Hichun alang toa mi somleni cheh kideldin alheng doh taovin ahi – Saul chapa Ishbosheth langa din Benjamin mi somleni, chule David langa din mi somleni ma alhengdoh un ahi.
16 And they seized every one the head of his neighbor with his hand, and his sword [was thrust] into the side of his neighbor, and they fall down together: and the name of that place was called The portion of the treacherous ones, which is in Gabaon.
Mikhat cheh in akitopi hou sam atuh un chule achemjam un khat cheh pongpeh akisutpih to un ahileh abonchaovin athi taovin ahi. hijeh chun Gibeon mun hi eitih in chemjam a kidot namun tin akihe jing tan ahi.
17 And the battle was very severe on that day; and Abenner and the men of Israel were worsted before the servants of David.
Hiche jouchun anikho maman nasatah in akisatou vin chule David sepai techun Abner le Israel mite chu gal in anajou uvin ahi.
18 And there were there the three sons of Saruia, Joab, and Abessa, and Asael: and Asael was swift in his feet as a roe in the field.
Chule hiche nikho chun David sepai te la ah Zeruiah chapate thum Joab, Abishai, chule Asahel apang uvin ahi. chule Asahel hi gam sakhinou banga jang tah a lhei thei mi ahi.
19 And Asael followed after Abenner, and turned not to go to the right hand or to the left from following Abenner.
Chuin Asahel in Abner nung chu jungjelin mundang ema velou vin chule thil emacha jeh a kingapa lou vin adel tan ahi.
20 And Abenner looked behind him, and said, Are you Asael himself? and he said, I am.
Hichun Abner akinunghei in ahileh amapa ahung chu amutan ahi, chuin aman akou in, “nangma Asahel nahiham?” ati. Chuin aman adonbut in, “henge keima kahi” ati.
21 And Abenner said to him, Turn you to the right hand or to the left, and lay hold for yourself on one of the young men, and take to yourself his armor: but Asel would not turn back from following him.
Chuin Abner in agih in, “chin lang michomkhat gaman in! chule chapang khangdong jep khat chu man inlang amanchah lahpih in” ati. hinlah Asahel chun Abner lamchu jangkei in mundanga kiheidoh lou vin ajuipeh in ahi.
22 And Abenner said yet again to Asael, Stand aloof from me, lest I strike you to the ground? and how should I lift up my face to Joab?
Abner chun Asahel chu ahinsam kit in, hichemun akon kihei mangin! Keiman nangma kathanom poi. Akhuti leh iti nasopipa Joab mai kamukit ding ham? Ati.
23 And what does this mean? return to Joab your brother? But he would not stand aloof; and Abenner smites him with the hinder end of the spear on the loins, and the spear went out behind him, and he falls there and dies on the spot: and it came to pass that every one that came to the place where Asael fell and died, stood still.
Ahin Asahel chu ama akon kiheimang ding anom dehpon, hijeh chun Abner in Asahel oipoh laitah atengcha bulgeijin asun lhum in ahileh atengcha chu anung langah apeidoh liu in hichun amun maman alhun athidan tan ahi. chule koi hileh hilaimun hinpha a Asahel thi muchan chu akinga un adingdan taovin ahi.
24 And Joab and Abessa pursued after Abenner, and the sun went down: and they went as far as the hill of Amman, which is in the front of Gai, by the desert way of Gabaon.
Chuin Joab le Abishai in itabong thilsoh ham ti ahetdoh lhon phat in, Abner nung adel pei lhon tan, ahin Gibeon gamthip jotna lampi, Giah kom Ammah molsang agei lhonin nisan alhum den lhon tan ahi.
25 And the children of Benjamin who followed Abenner gather themselves together, and they formed themselves into one body, and stood on the top of a hill.
Benjamin phungmi Abner sepai ho chu akithah gopkhom kit un molsang chungah chun apang taovin ahi.
26 And Abenner called Joab, and said, Shall the sword devour perpetually? know you not that it will be bitter at last? How long then will you refuse to tell the people to turn from following our brethren?
Chuin Abner in Joab chu ahinsam in, eitih chan a khat le khat ekitha to jing diu hitam? achaina lungjin najeng ahihi nageldoh loulai uham? Etih tah leh namiteu chu nasopi Israel te nung ahindel naova kon nakham gah dingu hitam? ati.
27 And Joab said, As the Lord lives, if you had not spoken, even from the morning the people had gone up every one from following his brother.
Chuin Joab in ahinsei in, “Pathen bouvin ahei epiti ding ham nangman ima nahinsei lou hileh, ajeh chu keima hon jankhovah hella kahin del thei u nahi.”
28 And Joab sounded the trumpet, and all the people departed, and did not pursue after Israel, and did not fight any longer.
Hichun Joab in saki chu amutging in ahileh amite jouse chu adingdan un Israel sepai techu adel tapou vin ahi.
29 And Abenner and his men departed at evening, [and went] all that night, and crossed over Jordan, and went along the whole adjacent [country], and they come to the camp.
Chuchi jan chun Abner le amite chun Jordan phaicham chu ajot peh un, Jordan vadung chu agalkai un chule jingkah geijin achijomjing un Mahanaim alhun kahseu vin kinga lou vin anachijom jing un ahi.
30 And Joab returned from following Abenner, and he assembled all the people, and there were missing of the people of David, nineteen men, and Asael.
Hitabang tah chun, Joab le amite jong inlam akile taovin ahi. chule Joab in amite athiho chu ahin simtan ahileh mi somleko le Asahel alhahsam chu ahinmudoh tan ahi.
31 And the servants of David struck of the children of Benjamin, of the men of Abenner, three hundred and sixty men belonging to him.
Ahinlah Abner’s mi kithat jat chu jathum le somgup ahi, chule amaho chu abon va Benjamin phunga kon ngen ahiuve.
32 And they take up Asael, and bury him in the tomb of his father in Bethleem. And Joab and the men with him went all the night, and the morning rose upon them in Chebron.
Chuin Joab le amite chun Asahel’s longchu Bethlehem lammah apuvin apa lhankhuh ma achun avuitao vin ahi. chujou vin amaho jankhovah keiyin akitolun jingkho ahungvah in Hebron alhung taovin ahi.
