1 Chronicles 20
1 And it comes to pass, at the time of the turn of the year—at the time of the going out of the messengers—that Joab leads out the force of the host, and destroys the land of the sons of Ammon, and comes in and besieges Rabbah—David is abiding in Jerusalem—and Joab strikes Rabbah, and breaks it down.
Kawmpoi e tueng a pha nah, siangpahrangnaw ni tarantuk hane ouk a tâco awh. Joab ni ransahu a ceikhai teh Ammonnaw e ram hah a tuk teh Rabbah kho a kalup awh. Devit teh Jerusalem vah ao Joab ni Rabbah kho a tâ teh a la.
2 And David takes the crown of their king from off his head, and finds it [to be] a talent of gold [in] weight, and [with] precious stone in it, and it is on the head of David; and he has brought out very much spoil of the city,
Devit ni hote siangpahrang e bawilakhung hah a la pouh. Ai e teh sui talen buet touh a ri. talung phu kaawmnaw hai ao. Devit hah a kâmuk sak awh teh, khopui thung e hno moikapap a lawp awh.
3 and he has brought out the people who [are] in it, and sets [them] to the saw, and to cutting instruments of iron, and to axes; and thus David does to all cities of the sons of Ammon, and David turns back—and all the people—to Jerusalem.
Hote hmuen koehoi taminaw hah a ceikhai teh, thing a e kawi, laikawk kanawknae hnopainaw, cakânaw, hno nahanelah thaw a tawk sak awh. Hot patetlah Ammonnaw e khopui abuemlah Devit ni a sak hnukkhu, Devit hoi a taminaw pueng teh Jerusalem vah a ban awh.
4 And it comes to pass after this, that war remains in Gezer with the Philistines; then Sibbechai the Hushathite has struck Sippai, of the children of the giant, and they are humbled.
Hathnukkhu, Filistinnaw hoi Gezer vah tarankâtuknae bout ao. Hushath Sibbekhai ni Rapha catoun thung dawk e Sippai hah a thei awh teh a sung sak awh.
5 And there is war with the Philistines again, and Elhanan son of Jair strikes Lahmi, brother of Goliath the Gittite, the wood of whose spear [is] like a weavers’ beam.
Filistinnaw hoi bout kâtuk awh teh, Jair kho e Jair capa Elhanan ni Git tami Goliath e nawngha Lahmi hah a thei. A tahroecung teh hni kawng kalawng e patetlah ao.
6 And there is war in Gath again, and there is a man of [great] measure, and his fingers and his toes [are] six and six—twenty-four [total], and he has also been born to the giant.
Gath khovah kâtuknae bout ao teh, hawvah, ka rasang poung e aranglae kut roi dawk kutcarei taruk touh, avanglae a khok roi dawk a khokcarei taruk, asumkum 24 touh ka tawn e ao. Filistin miphun tamikalen poung e miphunnaw e casak doeh.
7 And he reproaches Israel, and Jonathan son of Shimea, brother of David, strikes him.
Ahni ni Isarelnaw a ka pacekpahlek dawkvah, Devit e a nawngha Shimei capa Jonathan ni ahni hah a thei.
8 These were born to the giant in Gath, and they fall by the hand of David, and by the hand of his servants.
Hotnaw teh Gath kho dawk kaawm e Rapha tami kalenpounge casak lah ao teh, Devit hoi a sannaw e kut dawk hoi a due awh.
