2 Samuel 12
1 And the Lord sent Nathan unto David, and he came unto him and said to him, Two men were once in one city, the one rich and the other poor.
Angraeng mah Nathan to David khaeah patoeh; David khaeah caeh moe, anih khaeah, Vangpui thungah kami hnetto oh, maeto loe angraeng moe, maeto loe amtang.
2 The rich man had flocks and herds, in great abundance.
Angraeng kami loe tuu hoi maitaw paroeai tawnh;
3 But the poor man had nothing, save one little ewe, which he had bought; and he nourished it, and it grew up with him and with his children together; of his bread it used to eat, and out of his cup it used to drink, and in his bosom it used to lie, and it was to him as a daughter.
toe kamtang kami loe minawk khaeah qan ih tuu tala maeto khue ai ah loe kalah tidoeh tawn ai; to tuu to anih mah pacah, tuu loe a caanawk hoi nawnto qoeng o tahang; tuu loe pacahkung ih buh to caak moe, anih mah naek ih tui to naek toeng; pacahkung ih ban ah iih pongah, canu baktiah a khet.
4 And there came a traveler unto the rich man; and he felt compunction to take from his own flocks and from his own herds to dress for the wayfarer that was come to him; but he took the ewe of the poor man, and dressed it for the man that was come to him.
Angvin maeto angraeng im ah angzoh, toe angraeng loe angvin pacah hanah angmah ih tuu hoi maitawnawk to paawt pongah, kamtang kami ih tuu caa to lak pae moe, angmah khaeah angzo vangvin caak hanah boh pae, tiah a naa.
5 And the anger of David was greatly kindled against the man; and he said to Nathan, As the Lord liveth, surely the man that hath done this deserveth to die;
To naah David loe to tiah kaom kami nuiah paroeai palungphui moe, Nathan khaeah, Angraeng loe hing baktih toengah, to baktih hmuen sah kami loe duek han oh!
6 And the ewe he shall pay fourfold, for punishment that he hath done this thing, and because he had no compassion.
Tahmenhaih tawn ai ah to baktih hmuen to a sak pongah, tuu caa alet palito laemsak han oh, tiah a naa.
7 Then said Nathan to David, Thou art the man! Thus hath said the Lord, the God of Israel, It is I who anointed thee as king over Israel, and it is I who delivered thee out of the hand of Saul;
To naah Nathan mah David khaeah, To kami loe nang ni! Israel Angraeng Sithaw mah, Israel nuiah siangpahrang ah situi kang bawh moe, Saul ban thung hoiah kang pahlong;
8 And I gave unto thee the house of thy master, and [put] the wives of thy master into thy bosom, and gave unto thee the house of Israel and Judah: and if this be too little, I could bestow on thee yet many more like these things.
na angraeng ih im to nang hanah kang paek, na angraeng ih zunawk to na ban ah kang paek, Israel hoi Judah imthung takoh to kang paek; hae hmuen hae zetta, tiah na poek nahaeloe, to baktih kalah hmuennawk doeh kang paek let bae han vop, tiah thuih.
9 Wherefore hast thou despised the word of the Lord to do what is evil in his eyes? Uriyah the Hittite hast thou smitten with the sword, and his wife hast thou taken unto thee for wife; but him hast thou slain with the sword of the children of 'Ammon.
Tipongah a mikhnukah kahoih ai hmuen na sak moe, Angrang mah paek ih lok na patoek loe? Sumsen hoiah Hit acaeng Uriah to na hum moe, a zu to na lomh pae; Ammon kaminawk ih sumsen hoiah anih to na hum.
10 And now, the sword shall not depart from thy house for ever; for the reason that thou hast despised me, and hast taken the wife of Uriyah the Hittite to be thy wife.
Ka lok tidoeh na sah ai moe, Hit kami Uriah ih zu to na lomh pongah, sumsen mah vaihi na imthung takoh to caehtaak mak ai boeh.
11 Thus hath said the Lord, Behold, I will raise up against thee evil out of thy own house, and I will take away thy wives before thy eyes, and I will give them unto thy neighbor; and he shall lie with thy wives before the face of this sun.
Angraeng mah, Khenah, na imthung takoh thung hoiah sethaih ka tacawtsak han; na mikhnukah na zunawk to ka lak moe, na imtaeng kami khaeah ka paek han; anih mah na zunawk to khodai ah iip haih tih.
12 For thou hast done it in secret; but I will surely do this thing before all Israel, and before the sun.
Nang mah hae hmuen hae tamquta hoiah na sak, toe kaimah loe to hmuen to Israel kaminawk boih mikhnukah, khodai ah ka sak han, tiah thuih, tiah a naa.
13 Then said David unto Nathan, I have sinned against the Lord. And Nathan said to David, Also the Lord hath caused thy sin to pass away: thou shalt not die.
To naah David mah Nathan khaeah, Angraeng hmaa ah ka zae moeng boeh, tiah a naa. To naah Nathan mah, Angraeng mah na zaehaih lak ving boeh pongah, na dueh mak ai.
14 Nevertheless, because thou hast given great cause to the enemies of the Lord to blaspheme through this thing, the child also that hath been born unto thee shall surely die.
Toe hae tiah na sak ih hmuen mah, Angraeng ih misanawk hanah kasaethuihaih loklam na paek pongah, na sak ih na caa loe dueh tih, tiah a naa.
15 And Nathan went to his house; and the Lord struck the child that Uriyah's wife had born unto David, that it became very sick.
Nathan loe anih im hoiah tacawt. Uriah zu mah David hanah sak pae ih, a capa to Angraeng mah boh pongah, nawkta loe ngannat nung parai.
16 And David besought God in behalf of the lad; and David kept a fast, and came home, and lay over night upon the earth.
To pongah David mah nawkta han Sithaw khaeah tahmenhaih hnik; David loe imthung ah caeh moe, buhzah; aqum puek long ah angsong.
17 And the elders of the house arose about him, to raise him up from the earth; but he would not, and he did not partake of any bread with them.
A imthung ih kacoehtanawk mah, anih to pathawk hanah, ataeng ah caeh o; toe anih mah angmak pae; nihcae hoi buh nawnto caa pae ai.
18 And it came to pass on the seventh day that the child died; and the servants of David were afraid to tell him, that the child was dead; for they said, Behold, while the child was yet alive, we spoke to him, and he would not hearken to our voice: how then shall we say to him, The child is dead! he might do [himself] a hurt.
Ni sarihto naah loe nawkta to duek; David ih tamnanawk mah anih khaeah nawkta loe duek boeh, tiah thuih pae hanah zit o; nihcae mah, Khenah, nawkta hing nathuem ah mataeng doeh, anih khaeah thuih pae ih lok to anih mah tahngai han koeh ai; nawkta loe duek ving boeh, tiah thui pae o nahaeloe, angmah hoi angmah to zit kaom hmuen sah lat moeng doeh om tih, tiah a thuih o.
19 But when David saw that his servants were whispering to each other, David understood that the child was dead; wherefore David said unto his servants, Is the child dead? and they said, he is dead.
A tamnanawk mah tamquta hoiah thuih o ih lok to David mah hnuk naah, nawkta loe duek boeh, tiah panoek. To pongah David mah a tamnanawk khaeah, nawkta loe duek boeh maw? tiah a dueng. Nihcae mah, Ue, nawkta loe duek ving boeh, tiah a naa o.
20 David then rose up from the earth, and washed and anointed himself, and changed his garments, and went into the house of the Lord and prostrated himself; and then he came to his own house, and asked that they should set food before him, and he ate.
To naah David loe long hoiah angthawk, tui amthluk moe, hmuihoih tui to angnok; khukbuen to angkraih moe, Angraeng imthung ah caeh pacoengah, Angraeng to bok; to pacoengah angmah im ah caeh moe, buhcaak hanah a hnik; a tamnanawk mah caaknaek to patoem pae o moe, a caak.
21 And his servants then said unto him, What is this thing which thou hast done? On account of the child when living thou didst fast and weep; but as soon as the child was dead thou didst arise and eat bread!
A tamnanawk mah, Tikhoe hae tiah na oh loe? Nawkta hing nathung ah buh na zah moe, na qah; nawkta duek naah loe, nang thawk moe, buh aan to na caak lat, tiah a naa o.
22 And he said, While the child was yet alive, I fasted and wept; because I said, Who knoweth, but that the Lord will be gracious to me, that the child may live?
Anih mah, Nawkta hing let thai hanah, Sithaw mah kai na tahmen tih maw, tahmen mak ai, tiah mi mah doeh panoek ai, to pongah nawkta hing nathung ah buh ka zah moe, ka qah, tiah a naa.
23 But now he is dead, wherefore should I fast then? can I restore him again? I am going to him; but he will not return to me.
Toe vaihi nawkta loe duek boeh; tih han ih buh ka zah han vop loe? Anih to ka hingsak let thai tih maw? Anih khaeah ni kai ka caeh han; toe anih loe kai khaeah amlaem let mak ai boeh, tiah a naa.
24 And David comforted Bath-sheba' his wife, and he went in unto her, and lay with her; and she bore a son, and called his name Solomon; and the Lord loved him.
To naah David mah a zu Bethsheba to pathloep; to pacoengah ataeng ah caeh moe, a iih haih; anih mah capa maeto sak pae let; anih ih ahmin to Solomon, tiah sak. Anih loe Angraeng mah palung.
25 And he sent by the hand of Nathan the prophet, and called his name, Yedideyah in behalf of the Lord.
Angraeng mah anih to palung pongah, Jedidiah, tiah ahminphui hanah tahmaa Nathan khaeah lokpaek.
26 And Joab fought against Rabbah of the children of 'Ammon, and captured the royal city.
To naah Joab mah Ammon kaminawk ih Rabbah vangpui to tuk moe, siangpahrang ohhaih vangpui to lak.
27 And Joab sent messengers to David; and said, I have fought against Rabbah, and have also captured the water-town.
To naah Joab mah David khaeah laicaeh patoeh moe, Rabbah vangpui to ka tuk pacoengah, vangpui mah caak ih tui to ka lak boeh.
28 And now gather the rest of the people together, and encamp against the city, and capture it: lest I capture the city myself, and it be called by my name.
To pongah vaihi anghmat kaminawk to kok ah, vangpui to tuh loe, laa ah; to tih ai nahaeloe, vangpui to ka lak moe, kaimah ih ahmin ka sak han boeh, tiah a naa.
29 And David gathered all the people together and went to Rabbah, and fought against it, and captured it.
To pongah David mah kaminawk boih to kok moe, Rabbah vangpui tuk hanah caeh moe, a lak.
30 And he took the crown of Malkam from off his head, and its weight was a talent of gold, and [on it was] a precious stone, and it was set on the head of David; and the booty of the city he brought out in great abundance.
Nihcae siangpahrang lu nui ih angraeng lumuek to lak pae o moe, David lu nuiah angmuek o sak; vangpui thung ih paroeai hmuennawk to lak pae o.
31 And the people that were therein he brought forward, and put them under saws, and under iron threshing-wagons, and under axes of iron, and made them pass through brick-kilns; and thus did he unto all the cities of the children of 'Ammon: and David returned with them with all the people unto Jerusalem.
To ah kaom kaminawk to caeh haih moe, sarang hoi sak han koi kaom tok, cakaa hoi sak han koi kaom tok, sum aahhaih bang ih toknawk to a paek moe, amlai long sakhaih ahmuen ah toksaksak. Vangpui ih kaom Ammon kaminawk boih to tiah tok saksak. To pacoengah David hoi angmah ih kaminawk boih Jerusalem ah amlaem o.
