2 Samuel 21
1 And there was a famine in the days of David three years, year after year; and David besought the presence of the Lord. And the Lord said, On account of Saul, and on account of the house of blood, is this; because he hath slain the Gib'onites.
David tue vaengah kum thum tah kum khat phoeiah kum khat khokha tlung. Te dongah David loh BOEIPA maelhmai te a toem. Te vaengah BOEIPA loh Saul neh anih imkhui loh Gibonee a ngawn vaengkah thii kawng te a thui.
2 And the king called for the Gib'onites, and said unto them: [now the Gib'onites are not of the children of Israel, but of the remnant of the Emorites; and the children of Israel had sworn unto them; but Saul had sought to slay them in his zeal for the children of Israel in Judah: ]
Te dongah manghai loh Gibonee rhoek te a khue tih amih te, “Gibonee rhoek amih he Israel ca khui lamkah moenih. Tedae Amori hlangrhuel lamkah ni. Israel ca rhoek loh amih taengah ol a caeng uh coeng. Tedae Israel ca neh Judah kongah ni Saul loh amih te a thatlai neh ngawn hamla a moeh,” a ti nah.
3 Wherefore David said unto the Gib'onites, What shall I do for you? and wherewith shall I make the atonement, that ye may bless the inheritance of the Lord?
David loh Gibonee rhoek taengah, “Nangmih taengah balae kan saii eh? BOEIPA kah rho te yoethen sak ham ba nen lae rhong eh?,” a ti nah.
4 And the Gib'onites said unto him, We have no concern of silver or gold with Saul and with his house: nor do we wish to kill any man in Israel. And he said, What ye say, will I do for you.
Te dongah Gibonee rhoek loh, “Saul taeng lamkah neh anih imkhui lamkah cak neh sui te kaimih loh ka kuek uh moenih. Israel khuikah pakhat ngawn ham kaimih hut moenih,” a ti nauh. Te vaengah, “Na ti uh coeng te tah nangmih ham balae kan saii eh?” a ti nah.
5 And they said to the king, The man that consumed us, and that devised against us that we should be destroyed, so that we should have no footing in all the boundaries of Israel.
Te phoeiah manghai te, “Mamih aka khap tih mamih aka lutlat thil hlang, anih loh Israel khorhi tom ah aka pai te a mitmoeng sak.
6 Let there be delivered unto us seven men of his sons, and we will hang them up unto the Lord in Gib'ah of Saul, the chosen of the Lord. And the king said, I will give them.
Anih koca lamkah hlang parhih te kaimih taengah han tloeng lammah han tloeng saeh lamtah, amih te BOEIPA kah a coelh Saul khopuei Gibeah kah BOEIPA taengah hoeng uh saeh,” a ti uh. Te dongah manghai loh, “Kamah loh kan tloeng bitni,” a ti nah.
7 But the king had pity on Mephibosheth, the son of Jonathan the son of Saul, because of the Lord's oath that was between them, between David and Jonathan the son of Saul.
Tedae amih laklo kah BOEIPA olhlo bangla manghai tah Saul koca Jonathan capa Mephibosheth taengah a thinphat. Te tah David laklo neh Saul capa Jonathan laklo kah ni.
8 And the king took the two sons of Rizpah the daughter of Ayah, whom she had born unto Saul, Armoni and Mephibosheth; and the five sons of Michal the daughter of Saul, whom she had brought up for 'Adriel the son of Barzillai the Mecholathite:
Tedae manghai loh Aiah canu Rizpah loh Saul ham a sak pah ca tongpa panit, Armoni neh Mephibosheth, Saul canu Mikhal loh Mekoloti Barzillai capa Adriel ham a sak pah ca tongpa panga te a loh.
9 And he delivered them into the hand of the Gib'onites, and they hanged them on the mount before the Lord; and they fell, these seven, together; and they were put to death in the first days of harvest, in the beginning of the barley-harvest.
Te phoeiah amih te Gibonee kut ah a paek tih BOEIPA mikhmuh kah tlang ah a hoeng uh tih amih parhih tah a parhih la rhenten cungku uh. Amih tah cangah cuek vaengkah cangtun cangah a moecuek hnin vaengah a duek sakuh.
10 And Rizpah the daughter of Ayah took sackcloth, and spread out it for herself upon the rock, from the beginning of the harvest until water dropped down upon them out of heaven, and she suffered neither the birds of heaven to rest on them by day, nor the beasts of the field by night.
Te vaengah Aiah canu Rizpah loh tlamhni te a loh tih cangah tong lamloh vaan lamkah tui loh amih a bo thil duela lungpang dongah a phaih thil. Te dongah khothaih ah vaan vaa, khoyin ah kohong mulhing te amih soah cuuk sak pawh.
11 And it was told to David what Rizpah the daughter of Ayah, the concubine of Saul, had done.
Saul kah yula Aiah nu Rizpah kah a saii te David taengla a puen pauh.
12 And David then went and took the bones of Saul and the bones of Jonathan his son from the men of Yabeshgil'ad, who had stolen them from the market-place of Bethshan, where the Philistines had hanged them up, at the time the Philistines had smitten Saul at Gilboa':
Te dongah David te cet tih Saul rhuh neh a capa Jonathan rhuh te Jabesh Gilead khokung taeng lamloh a loh. Amih te Bethshan toltung lamkah a huen uh. Te tah Philisti kah amih a kuiok nah neh amih a kingkaek nah ni. Philisti kah Gilboa ah Saul te Philisti loh hnin at neh pahoi a ngawn.
13 And he brought up from there the bones of Saul and the bones of Jonathan his son; and they gathered up the bones of those that had been hanged.
Saul kah a rhuh neh a capa Jonathan kah a rhuh te khaw te lamloh a khuen uh daengah a rhuh a hoeng uh tangtae khaw te a soem uh.
14 And they buried the bones of Saul and Jonathan his son in the country of Benjamin at Zela', in the sepulchre of Kish his father: and they performed all that the king had commanded. And after that God was entreated for the land.
Saul neh a capa Jonathan kah a rhuh te Benjamin kho Zela kah a napa Kish phuel ah a up uh tih manghai loh a uen bangla boeih a saii uh. Te phoeiah ni khohmuen ham a thangthui te Pathen loh a rhoi pueng.
15 And the Philistines had again a war with Israel; and David went down, and his servants with him, and fought against the Philistines: and David became fatigued.
Te vaengah Philisti neh Israel laklo ah caem koep om tih David neh amah taengkah a sal rhoek a suntlak thil. Philisti te a vathoh vaengah David lamlum.
16 And Yishbi at Nob, who was of the children of the Raphah, the weight of whose spear was three hundred shekels of copper, he being girded with a new armor, thought to slay David.
Ishbibenob, Rapha cahlah Ishbibenob, a caai khiing mah rhohum khiing ah ya thum a lo pah. Anih loh a thai la a muk tih David te ngawn hamla cai.
17 But Abishai the son of Zeruyah succored him, and smote the Philistine, and killed him. Then swore the men of David unto him, saying, Thou shalt go out no more with us to battle, that thou mayest not quench the lamp of Israel.
Tedae David te Zeruiah capa Abishai loh a bom tih Philisti te a tloek pah. Anih te a ngawn van dongah David kah hlang rhoek loh anih taengah a toemngam uh tih, 'Caemtloek la kaimih taengah koep na lo pawt mako, te daengah ni Israel kah hmaithoi te athih pawt eh?,” a ti nah.
18 And it came to pass after this, that there was again a battle at Gob, with the Philistines: then smote Sibbechai the Chushathite Saph, who was of the children of the Raphah.
Te phoeiah om bal tih Goba ah Philisti caem koep thoo bal tih Khushathi Sibbekhai loh Rapha cahlah Saph te a ngawn.
19 And there was again a battle at Gob with the Philistines, when Elchanan the son of Ya'are-oregim, the Bethlechemite, slew Goliath the Gittite, the staff of whose spear was like a weaver's beam.
Goba tangkhuet ah Philisti neh caemtloek koep om bal tih Bethlehem Jaareoregim capa Elhanan loh Ghitti Goliath te a ngawn. Te vaengkah a caai tueng mah hnitah nah tampai bangla om.
20 And there was again a battle in Gath, where was a man of [great] stature, that had on every hand six fingers, and on every foot six toes, [in all] four and twenty in number; and he also was born to the Raphah.
Gath ah khaw caemtloek koep om tih a hlang te a songsang neh a cungnueh khaw om. A kut dongkah kutdawn neh a kho khodawn parhuk parhuk om tih pakul pali rhenten a lo pah. Anih te khaw Rapha lamkah ni a sak.
21 And he defied Israel; but Jonathan the son of Shim'ah, the brother of David, slew him.
Israel te a veet dongah David maya, Shimeah Shimei capa Jonathan loh anih te a ngawn.
22 These four were born to the Raphah in Gath; and they fell by the hand of David, and by the hand of his servants.
Te rhoek pali te Gath ah Rapha lamkah a sak uh tih David kut neh a sal rhoek kah kut ah cungku uh.
