< 1 Kings 13 >

1 And, behold, there came a man of God out of Judah by the word of the Lord unto Beth-el: while Jerobo'am was standing upon the altar to burn incense.
Pathen kah hlang he BOEIPA ol neh Judah lamloh Bethel la pakcak pawk. Te vaengah Jeroboam tah hmueih phum ham hmueihtuk taengah pai.
2 And he called out against the altar by the word of the Lord, and he said, O altar, altar, thus hath said the Lord, Behold, a child shall be born unto the house of David, Josiah by name, and he shall sacrifice upon thee the priests of the high-places that burn incense upon thee, and men's bones shall be burnt upon thee.
Te vaengah BOEIPA ol lamloh hmueihtuk te a doek tih, “Hmueihtuk, hmueihtuk, BOEIPA loh he ni a thui, David imkhui ham capa pakhat, a ming ah Josiah om coeng ke. Te dongah nang soah hmueih aka phum hmuensang khosoih rhoek te nang soah a ngawn vetih hlang rhuh ni nang soah a tih eh?,” a ti nah.
3 And he gave on the same day a token, saying, This is the token that the Lord hath spoken, Behold, the altar shall be rent, and the ashes which are upon it shall be spilled about.
Te khohnin ah kopoekrhai a paek tih, “BOEIPA loh he kah kopoekrhai he a thui, hmueihtuk he paeng tih a sokah maehhloi luk pawn ni he,” a ti nah.
4 And it came to pass, when the king heard the word of the man of God, which he had called out against the altar in Beth-el, that Jerobo'am stretched forth his hand from off the altar, saying, Seize him. And his hand, which he had put forth against him, dried up, so that he could not draw it back to himself.
Bethel ah hmueihtuk aka pang thil Pathen hlang kah ol te manghai loh a yaak. Te dongah Jeroboam loh hmueihtuk dong lamloh a kut a thueng tih, “Anih ke tu uh,” a ti nah. Tedae anih taengla a kut a thueng te a koh pah tih amah taengla yuek thai voel pawh.
5 The altar also was rent, and the ashes were spilled about from the altar, according to the token which the man of God had given by the word of the Lord.
Te phoeiah BOEIPA ol lamloh Pathen hlang kah a paek kopoekrhai bangla hmueihtuk te paeng tih maehhloi khaw hmueihtuk dong lamloh luk.
6 And the king commenced and said unto the man of God, Offer but entreaty before the Lord thy God, and pray in behalf of me, that my hand may return to me again. And the man of God offered his entreaty before the Lord, and the king's hand returned to him again, and became as it was before.
Te daengah manghai loh a doo tih Pathen kah hlang taengah, “BOEIPA na Pathen mikhmuh ah nguek mai. Kai hamla la thangthui lamtah kai he ka kut hoeih pawn saeh,” a ti nah. Pathen kah hlang te BOEIPA mikhmuh ah a nguek daengah manghai te a kut a yueh thai tih lamhma kah thim la a om pah.
7 And the king spoke unto the man of God, Come home with me, and take some refreshment, and I will give thee a present.
Manghai loh Pathen kah hlang te, “Kamah taengah im la ham paan lamtah na lungbuei duel dae, nang te kutdoe kam paek bitni,” a ti nah.
8 But the man of God said unto the king, If thou wert to give me the half of thy house, I would not go in with thee, neither would I eat bread nor drink water in this place;
Tedae Pathen kah hlang loh manghai te, “Kai he na im rhakthuem nam pae cakhaw nang taengla ka mop mahpawh. He hmuen ah buh khaw ka ca mahpawh, tui khaw ka o mahpawh.
9 For so was it charged me by the word of the Lord, saying, Thou shalt not eat bread, nor drink water, nor return by the way that thou camest.
BOEIPA ol loh kai n'uen tangloeng tih, 'Buh khaw ca boeh, tui khaw o boeh, na caeh long lamloh mael boeh,’ a ti,” a ti nah.
10 So he went by another way, and returned not by the way on which he was come to Beth-el.
Te dongah longpuei a tloe longah cet tih Bethel la aka pawk longpuei longah mael voel pawh.
11 Now there dwelt a certain old prophet in Beth-el; and his son came and told him all the deed that the man of God had done that day in Beth-el: the words [also] which he had spoken unto the king, these too they told to their father.
Te vaengah tonghma patong pakhat tah Bethel ah kho a sak. Te dongah a capa te a pawk vaengah Pathen kah hlang loh Bethel ah hnin at neh bitat cungkuem a saii khaw, manghai taengah athui ol te khaw, a taengah a thui pah tih a napa ham a daek pauh.
12 And their father spoke unto them, What way did he go? His sons however had seen what way had gone the man of God, who had come from Judah.
Te vaengah a napa loh amih te, “Me long nim a caeh,” a ti nah. Te dongah Judah lamkah aka pawk Pathen hlang kah a caeh nah longpuei te a ca rhoek loh a tueng uh.
13 And he said unto his sons, Saddle me the ass. So they saddled him the ass, and he rode away thereon,
A ca rhoek te, “Kai ham laak te khit uh,” a ti nah. Te dongah anih ham laak te a khih pa uh tih a soah ngol.
14 And he went after the man of God, and found him sitting under the oak; and he said unto him, Art thou the man of God that camest from Judah? And he said, I am.
Te phoeiah Pathen hlang hnuk te a vai hatah rhokael hmuiah a ngol te hmuh. Te dongah anih te, “Nang he Judah lamkah aka pawk Pathen kah hlang ni nama?” a ti nah hatah, “Kai ni ue,” a ti nah.
15 Then said he unto him, Come with me home, and eat bread.
Te phoeiah anih te, “Kai taengah im la halo lamtah buh ca dae,” a ti nah.
16 And he said, I cannot return with thee, nor go in with thee: neither will I eat bread nor drink water with thee in this place;
Tedae, “Nang taengah ka mael ham neh na taengah pongpa ham ka coeng moenih. He hmuen ah buh ka ca mahpawh, nang taengkah tui khaw ka o mahpawh.
17 For a command came to me by the word of the Lord, Thou shalt not eat bread nor drink water there; thou shalt not return to go by the way [also] by which thou camest.
Ka taengkah ol he BOEIPA ol dongkah ni. Teah te buh ca boeh, tui khaw o boeh, na lo vaengkah longpuei dongah na mael vaengah cet boeh,’ a ti,” a ti nah.
18 And he said unto him, I also am a prophet like thee; and an angel spoke unto me by the word of the Lord, saying, Bring him back with thee unto thy house, that he may eat bread and drink water. But he lied unto him.
Te vaengah amah te, “Kai khaw nang bangla tonghma van ni. Puencawn loh kai taengah BOEIPA ol neh a thui tih, 'Anih te namah neh na im la mael puei lamtah, buh ca dae saeh, tui khaw o saeh,’ a ti,” a ti nah tih a taengah basa.
19 So he returned with him, and ate bread in his house, and drank water.
Te dongah a taengla mael tih a im ah buh a caak, tui khaw a ok pah.
20 And it came to pass, as they were sitting at the table, That the word of the Lord came unto the prophet who had brought him back;
Te phoeiah amih te caboei dongah ngol uh. Te vaengah BOEIPA kah ol anih aka khuen tonghma taengah pai.
21 And he called unto the man of God that was come from Judah, saying, Thus hath said the Lord, Forasmuch as thou hast disobeyed the order of the Lord, and hast not kept the commandment which the Lord thy God had commanded thee;
Te vaengah Judah lamkah aka pawk Pathen hlang te a o tih, “BOEIPA ol na koek dongah BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Na Pathen BOEIPA loh nang n'uen bangla olpaek te na ngaithuen moenih.
22 But didst return, and hast eaten bread and drunk water in the place, of which he had spoken to thee, Thou shalt not eat bread, nor drink water: thy dead body shall not come unto the sepulchre of thy fathers.
Na mael tih namah taengah, 'Buh ca boeh, tui o boeh,’ a ti nah hmuen ah buh na caak tih, tui na ok dongah na rhok loh na pa rhoek kah phuel te paan mahpawh,” a ti nah.
23 And it came to pass, after he had eaten bread, and after he had drunk, that he saddled for him the ass, [to wit, ] for the prophet whom he had brought back.
Buh a caak phoei neh a ok phoeiah tah anih aka mael puei tonghma loh anih ham laak a khih pah.
24 And when he was gone, a lion met him on the way, and slew him; and his corpse remained cast down on the way, and the ass stood by it, the lion also stood by the corpse.
Tedae a caeh vaengah anih te sathueng loh longpuei ah a mah tih anih te a duek sak. A rhok te long ah a voeih tih a om vaengah laak te a taengah pai. Sathueng khaw rhok taengah pai.
25 And, behold, men passed by, and saw the corpse cast down on the way, and the lion standing by the corpse; and they came and spoke of it in the city where the old prophet dwelt.
Te vaengah hlang aka cet loh longpuei ah rhok yalh tih rhok taengah sathueng a pai te lawt a hmuh uh. Te dongah tonghma patong a om nah khopuei ah a thui uh.
26 And when the prophet that had brought him back from the way heard it, he said, It is the man of God who was disobedient unto the order of the Lord; wherefore the Lord hath given him up unto the lion, who hath torn him, and slain him, according to the word of the Lord, which he had spoken unto him.
Te vaengah longpueng lamloh anih aka mael puei tonghma loh a yaak tih, “BOEIPA ol aka koek Pathen kah hlang pai ni, a taengah a thui pah BOEIPA ol bangla BOEIPA loh anih he sathueng taengla a paek dongah a phuet tih a duek sak,” a ti.
27 And he spoke to his sons, saying, Saddle me the ass. And they saddled him.
Te phoeiah a ca rhoek te, “Kai hamla laak te khit uh,” a ti nah tih a khih pauh.
28 And he went and found his corpse cast down on the way, and the ass and the lion standing by the corpse: the lion had not eaten the corpse, nor torn the ass.
A caeh vaengah a rhok te long ah ana voeih tih rhok taengah laak neh sathueng a pai te a hmuh. Sathueng loh rhok te ca pawt tih laak te khaw nget pawh.
29 And the prophet took up the corpse of the man of God, and laid it upon the ass, and brought it back; and he came to the city of the old prophet, to lament for, and to bury him.
Tonghma loh Pathen hlang kah rhok te a pom tih laak dongla a tloeng phoeiah a mael puei. Te phoeiah rhaengsae ham neh up hamla tonghma patong kah khopuei la a pawk puei.
30 And he laid his corpse in his own sepulchre; and they lamented over him, “Alas, my brother!”
A rhok te amah phuel ah a yalh sak vaengah, “Anunae kai mana aih,” tila a rhaengsae thil.
31 And it came to pass, after he had buried him, that he spoke to his sons, saying, When I am dead, then bury me in the sepulchre wherein the man of God is buried; beside his bones lay ye my bones;
Anih te a up phoeiah tah a ca rhoek te a uen tih, “Ka duek vaengah kai he Pathen hlang up nah phuel ah ng'up uh. Anih rhuh taengah ka rhuh he yalh saeh.
32 For the thing which he called out by the word of the Lord against the altar which is in Beth-el, and against all the houses of the high-places which are in the cities of Samaria, will surely come to pass.
BOEIPA ol lamloh Bethel kah hmueihtuk ham neh Samaria khopuei rhoek kah hmuensang im boeih ham a doek ol te thoeng rhoe thoeng bitni,” a ti nah.
33 After this event Jerobo'am returned not from his evil way; but made again of the lowest of the people priests of the high-places: whosoever desired it, he consecrated, that he might become one of the priests of the high-places.
He ol phoeiah khaw Jeroboam he a longpuei thae lamloh a mael moenih. Tedae a bal vaengah khobawt pilnam khui lamkah te hmuensang khosoih la a khueh. A kut loh a pha rhang la aka omtoem tah hmuensang khosoih la ana om van.
34 And he became through this thing the cause of sin unto the house of Jerobo'am, and to cause that it was blotted out, and destroyed from off the face of the earth.
He hno dongah Jeroboam imkhui ah tholhnah la om tih diklai maelhmai lamloh aka thup ham neh aka mitmoeng sak ham ni a om coeng.
