2 Samuel 13
1 And it came to pass after this, that Abshalom the son of David had a handsome sister, whose name was Thamar; and Amnon the son of David loved her.
Te phoeiah om tih David capa Absalom tah a ngannu sakthen om. Anih ming tah Tamar tih David capa Amnon loh a lungnah.
2 And Amnon worried himself so that he fell sick on account of Thamar his sister; for she was a virgin; and it was impossible in the eyes of Amnon to do her the least [harm].
A ngannu Tamar kong ah Amnon te tloh la a yuek. Anih te a oila pueng dongah khat khat a saii ham Amnon mik ah rhaisang.
3 But Amnon had a friend, whose name was Yonadab, the son of Shim'ah, David's brother; and Yonadab was a very sensible man.
Te vaengah David maya Shimeah capa, a ming ah Jonadab tah Amnon kah a paya la om. Jonadab tah bahoeng aka cueih hlang la om.
4 And he said to him, Why art thou so wasted, O prince, morning after morning? Wilt thou not tell me? Then said Amnon to him, Thamar the sister of Abshalom my brother do I love.
Te dongah anih te, “Ba aih lae mincang bal, mincang bal nang manghai capa he na tattloel aih. Kai taengah na thui mahpawt a?” a ti nah. Te daengah Amnon loh, “Ka manuca Absalom ngannu Tamar ka ngaih,” a ti nah.
5 And Yonadab said to him, Lie down on thy couch, and feign thyself sick; and when thy father cometh to see thee, thou must say unto him, Let, I pray thee, Thamar my sister come, and give me some food, and prepare the refreshment before my eyes, in order that I may see it, and eat it out of her hand.
Te dongah anih te Jehonadab loh, “Na thingkong dongah satlo bangla yalh. Nang te sawt hamla na pa ha pawk vaengah amah taengah, ‘Ka ngannu Tamar ha pawk laeh vetih kai buh n'tuh lah mako. Ka mikhmuh ah buhmaeh a saii te ka hmu dae eh. Te daengah ni a kut dongkah ka caak eh,’ ti nah,” a ti nah.
6 So Amnon lay down, and feigned himself sick; and when the king came to see him, Amnon said to the king, Let, I pray thee, Thamar my sister come, and mix up before my eyes a couple of cakes, that I may enjoy them out of her hand.
Amnon te satlo bangla yalh toengloeng tih anih te sawt hamla manghai te ha pawk. Te vaengah Amnon loh manghai taengah, “Ka ngannu Tamar ha pawk laeh saeh lamtah ka mikhmuh ah vaidam panit ah saii saeh. Te daengah ni anih kut lamkah te ka caak eh,” a ti nah.
7 Then did David send home to Thamar, saying, Do go now to thy brother Amnon's house, and prepare for him the refreshment.
Te dongah David loh Tamar te a im la a tah tih, “Na nganpa Amnon im la cet lamtah anih ham buhmaeh saii pah laeh,” a ti nah.
8 So Thamar went to the house of Amnon her brother, and he was lying down; and she took the dough and kneaded, and mixed it up before his eyes, and baked the cakes;
Tamar te a nganpa Amnon im la a caeh vaengah anih te ana yalh pah. Vaidamtlam te a loh tih a duep, a duep phoeiah a mikhmuh ah a saii pah. Te phoeiah vaidam te a thong pah.
9 And she took the pan, and poured them out before him; but he refused to eat; and Amnon said, Cause every man to go out from me; and they went out, every man, from him.
Thi-am te a loh tih a mikhmuh ah a poep pah hatah caak hamla a aal. Te phoeiah Amnon loh, “Ka taeng lamkah hlang he boeih tueih uh,” a ti nah. Te dongah hlang boeih te anih taeng lamloh nong uh.
10 And Amnon said to Thamar, Bring the refreshment into the chamber, that I may enjoy it out of thy hand. So Thamar took the cakes which she had made, and brought them unto Amnon her brother into the chamber.
Te phoeiah Amnon loh Tamar te, “Imkhui la buhmaeh hang khuen lamtah na kut dongah ka ca eh,” a ti nah. Te dongah vaidam a saii te Tamar loh a loh tih imkhui kah a nganpa Amnon taengla a kun puei.
11 And when she had brought them near unto him to eat, he took hold of her, and said unto her, Come, lie with me, my sister.
A caak ham a taengah a tawn pah vaengah tah amah te vik a tuuk tih, “Ka ngannu halo lamtah kamah neh yalh sih,” a ti nah.
12 But she said to him, No, my brother, do not violate me; for such a deed ought not to be done in Israel; do not this scandalous act!
Tedae anih te, “Ka nganpa aw te tlam moenih, kai m'poeih boeh, Israel khuiah te bang te a saii noek moenih. Boethaehalang he saii boeh.
13 And I, whither should I carry my shame? and as for thee, thou wouldst be like one of the worthless in Israel; but now, O speak, I pray thee, unto the king, for he will not withhold me from thee.
Kai he kamah kah kokhahnah neh melam ka caeh eh. Namah khaw Israel khuiah hlang ang boeiloeih bangla na om ve. Manghai taengah thui kanoek lamtah nang taengah tah kai khaw n'hloh mahpawh,” a ti nah.
14 Nevertheless, he would not hearken unto her voice; but he overpowered her, and violated her, and lay with her.
Tedae a ol te yaak ngaih pawh. A ngannu te rhap a kop tih a yalh puei.
15 Then did Amnon hate her with a very great hatred; so that the hatred with which he hated her was greater than the love with which he had loved her; and Amnon said unto her, Arise, be gone.
Te phoeiah tah anih te Amnon loh lat a hnoel tih a hmuhuetnah bahoeng a nah pah. A thiinah vaengkah a hmuhuetnah te a lungnah vaengkah lungnah lakah nah. Te dongah anih te Amnon loh, “Thoo, cet laeh,” a ti nah.
16 And she said unto him, [Do] not add this yet greater wrong than the other which thou hast done with me, to send me [now] away! But he would not listen to her;
Amnon te, “He lakah a tloe la aka len boethae kah a kong a mai he a om moenih. Kai nan saii tih nan haek te,” a ti nah. Tedae anih ol te yaak ngaih voel pawh.
17 And he called his young man, his servant, and said, Do send this woman away from me, into the street, and lock the door behind her.
Te dongah amah aka khut a taengca te, “Anih te kai taeng lamloh kawtpoeng la tueih uh lamtah anih hnukah thohkhaih te kalh laeh,” a ti nah.
18 And she had on a garment of divers colors; for thus were usually appareled the king's daughters when virgins, in robes; and his servant brought her out into the street, and locked the door behind her.
Te vaengah a pum dongah pendum angkidung a bai. Te bang te manghai canu rhoek loh oila kah hnikul la a bai uh. Amnon aka khut loh Tamar te vongvoel la a thak tih a hnukah thohkhaih te kalh.
19 And Thamar put ashes on her head, and the garment of divers colors which was on her she rent: and she placed her hand on her head, and went away and cried as she went along.
Tamar loh a lu dongah hmaiphu a phul tih a pum dongkah pendum angkidung khaw a phen. Te phoeiah a kut te a lu dongah a pingpoei tih a caeh, caeh doeah rhap.
20 Then said to her Abshalom her brother, Hath Amnon thy brother been with thee? but now, my sister, keep silence, he is thy brother, take this thing not to thy heart. So Thamar remained, and was secluded in the house of Abshalom her brother.
Te dongah anih te a nganpa Absalom loh, “Na nganpa Amnon a nang taengah aka om? Ka ngannu na hilphah laeh anih a nang nganpa, he olka dongah na lungbuei khueh boeh,” a ti nah. Te dongah Tamar tah a nganpa Absalom im ah kho a sak tih pong van.
21 And when king David heard all these things, it displeased him greatly.
Tedae he rhoek kah olka boeih te manghai David loh a yaak vaengah amah khaw muep sai coeng.
22 And Abshalom spoke not with Amnon either bad or good; for Abshalom hated Amnon, because he had violated Thamar his sister.
A ngannu Tamar a poeih dongkah olka dongah Absalom loh Amnon te a hmuhuet tih a thae a then akhaw Absalom loh Amnon te voek pawh.
23 And it came to pass after two full years, that Abshalom had sheep-shearers at Ba'al-chazor, which is near Ephraim; and Abshalom invited all the king's sons.
A kum khohnin a pha vaengah Ephraim taengkah Baalhazor ah Absalom ham mul vok a saii uh tih manghai ca rhoek boeih te Absalom loh a khue.
24 And Abshalom came to the king, and said, Behold, now, thy servant hath sheep-shearers; let the king, I pray thee, and his servants go with thy servant.
Te dongah Absalom te manghai taengla kun tih, “Na sal ham mul aka vo rhoek cet uh pawn ni ke, manghai namah neh, na sal neh a sal rhoek te ta,” a ti nah.
25 And the king said to Abshalom, No, my son, do not let us all go now, that we may not be a burden upon thee. And he urged him much, but he would not go, and he blessed him.
Manghai loh Absalom te, “Ka capa te tlam moenih, mamih boeih n'cet tarha mahpawh, te daengah ni namah te n'nan pawt eh,” a ti nah. A taengah a cahoeh ngawn dae paan pah ham tah huem pawt tih anih te yoethen a paek.
26 And Abshalom said, If not, let, I pray thee, Amnon my brother go with us. And the king said to him, Why should he go with thee?
Absalom loh, “Te pawt atah ka maya Amnon tah kaimih taengah m'paan mai mako,” a ti nah. Tedae amah te manghai loh, “Balae tih nang te m'paan eh?” a ti nah.
27 But Abshalom urged him greatly, and he sent with him Amnon and all the sons of the king.
Tedae anih te Absalom loh a cahoeh dongah Amnon neh manghai capa rhoek boeih te a taengla a tueih pah.
28 Now Abshalom commanded his servants, saying, Mark ye, I pray you, when Annon's heart is merry with wine, and I say unto you, Smite Amnon: then kill him, fear not; behold, it is I who command it you; be firm and show yourselves men of valor.
Te vaengah Absalom loh a tueihyoeih rhoek te a uen tih, “Misurtui lamloh Amnon kah lungbuei a umya vaengah hmu uh laeh, nangmih taengah, ‘Amnon te ngawn uh lamtah duek sak uh, anih te rhih uh boeh, nangmih te kang uen pawt nim? Ning uh lamtah tatthai capa bangla om uh,’ ka ti,” a ti nah.
29 And the servants of Abshalom did unto Amnon as Abshalom had commanded. Then arose all the king's sons, and they rode off, every man on his mule, and fled.
Te dongah Absalom kah a uen bangla Amnon te Absalom kah tueihyoeih rhoek loh a saii uh. Te dongah manghai capa rhoek tah boeih thoo uh tih a muli-marhang dongah rhip ngol uh tih rhaelrham uh.
30 And it happened, while they were on the way, that the report came to David, saying, Abshalom hath smitten all the king's sons, and there is not one of them left.
Amih te a longpueng uh vaengah olthang tah David taengla pawk coeng tih, “Absalom loh manghai capa rhoek te boeih a ngawn tih amih te pakhat khaw a hlun moenih,” a ti nah.
31 Then arose the king and rent his garments, and laid himself on the earth: and all his servants were standing by with their garments rent.
Te dongah manghai te thoo tih a himbai te a phen tih lai dongah yalh. Te vaengah a sal aka pai rhoek boeih long khaw himbai te a phen uh.
32 But Yonadab the son of Shim'ah, David's brother, commenced and said, Let not my Lord suppose that they have slain all the young men, the king's sons; since Amnon alone is dead; for by the command of Abshalom was this ordained from the day that he violated Thamar his sister.
Tedae David maya Shimeah capa Jonadab loh a doo tih, “Ka boeipa loh manghai capa camoe rhoek la rhenten thui boeh. Amnon amah bueng ni a ngawn uh. A ngannu Tamar te a poeih pah hnin lamloh anih te Absalom loh a ka dongah a ngawn tangtae la a khueh coeng.
33 And now let not my Lord the king take the thing to his heart, thinking, that all the king's sons are dead; for Amnon alone is dead.
Te dongah manghai capa rhoek boeih duek coeng a ti ol te ka boeipa manghai loh a lungbuei ah khueh boel saeh. Amnon amah bueng ni a duek,” a ti nah.
34 And Abshalom flew away. And the young man that was watching lifted up his eyes, and looked, and behold, many people were coming by the way behind him, by the side of the mount.
Absalom a yong vaengah rhaltawt camoe te a mik, mik ah a dan. Te vaengah anih hnukah tlang hlaep longpuei ah aka cet pilnam te yet te kak a hmuh.
35 And Yonadab said to the king, The king's sons are come: according to the word of thy servant, so hath it come to pass.
Te dongah Jonadab loh manghai taengah, “Manghai capa rhoek ha pawk uh coeng ke, na sal kah ol bangla om tangkhuet,” a ti nah.
36 And it happened, as he had just finished speaking, that, behold, the king's sons came, and they lifted up their voice and wept; and also the king and all his servants wept very much.
A thui te a khah van neh manghai capa rhoek te pahoi ha pawk uh. Te vaengah a ol a huel uh tih rhap uh. Te dongah manghai neh a sal rhoek boeih khaw rhahnah neh a nah la hluk hluk rhap uh.
37 But Abshalom had fled; and he went to Talmai, the son of 'Ammihud, the king of Geshur: and [David] mourned for his son all the time.
Absalom te yong tih Geshuri manghai Ammihud capa Talmai taengla cet. Tedae a capa dongah hnin takuem nguekcoi.
38 So did Abshalom fly, and go to Geshur, and he remained there three years.
Absalom te yong tih Geshuri la aka cet te kum thum pahoi om.
39 And [the soul of] king David longed to go forth unto Abshalom; for he was comforted concerning Amnon, that he was dead.
Tedae David manghai tah Amnon a duek dongah te hal tih Absalom taengla a caeh ham khaw a toeng.
