1 Samuel 12
1 And Samuel says to all Israel, “Behold, I have listened to your voice, to all that you said to me, and I cause a king to reign over you,
Samuel ni Isarelnaw pueng koe, khenhaw! kai koe na dei awh e pueng hah ka tarawi teh nangmouh siangpahrang na poe awh.
2 and now, behold, the king is habitually walking before you, and I have become aged and gray-headed, and my sons, behold, they [are] with you, and I have habitually walked before you from my youth until this day.
Atu khenhaw! siangpahrang ni na hrawi awh toe. Kai hateh kamatong toe. Ka sam hai a po toe. Khenhaw! ka capanaw teh nangmouh koe ao awh teh, a nawca hoi sahnin totouh na hrawi awh toe.
3 Behold, here I [am]; testify against me before YHWH, and before His anointed; whose ox have I taken, and whose donkey have I taken, and whom have I oppressed; whom have I bruised, and of whose hand have I taken a ransom, and hide my eyes with it? And I restore [it] to you.”
Hivah ka o, BAWIPA hmalah hoi satui a awi e hmalah ka o. Dei awh haw. Apie maito maw ouk ka lawp. Apie la maw ouk ka lawp. Apimaw ouk ka hmuhma. Apimaw ouk ka pacekpahlek. Ka mit dawn sak hanlah api kut dawk e tadawngnae maw ouk ka ca. Koung na patho awh han telah atipouh.
4 And they say, “You have not oppressed us, nor have you crushed us, nor have you taken anything from the hand of anyone.”
Ahnimouh ni na dum boi awh hoeh. Na pacekpahlek boi awh hoeh. Apie kut dawk e hno hai na lat boihoeh atipouh awh.
5 And he says to them, “YHWH [is] a witness against you, and His anointed [is] a witness this day, that you have not found anything in my hand”; and they say, “A witness.”
Samuel ni hai kaie kut dawk buetbuet touh hai nangmouh ni na hmu awh hoeh e hah BAWIPA teh nangmouh koe lah kapanuekkhaikung lah ao. Satui awi lah kaawm e hai kapanuekkhaikung lah ao telah ati. Ahnimouh ni hai ahni teh kapanuekkhaikung lah ao telah ati awh.
6 And Samuel says to the people, “YHWH [is] He who made Moses and Aaron, and who brought up your fathers out of the land of Egypt!
Samuel ni taminaw koe, Mosi hoi Aron thaw ka poe niteh, Izip ram hoi na mintoenaw ka tâcawtkhai e hai BAWIPA doeh.
7 And now, station yourselves, and I judge you before YHWH, with all the righteous acts of YHWH, which He did with you, and with your fathers.
Hatdawkvah, na mintoenaw koe hno kalan a saknae hah BAWIPA e hmalah pouk pouh thai nahanlah, atu sairasuepcalah kangdout awh.
8 When Jacob has come to Egypt, and your fathers cry to YHWH, then YHWH sends Moses and Aaron, and they bring out your fathers from Egypt, and cause them to dwell in this place,
Jakop ni Izip ram a pha hnukkhu nangmae mintoenaw ni BAWIPA koe a hram awh navah, Mosi hoi Aron hah Cathut ni a patoun teh, ahnimouh ni nangmae mintoenaw hah Izip ram hoi a tâcokhai hnukkhu, ahnimanaw teh hete ram dawk ao sak awh.
9 and they forget their God YHWH, and He sells them into the hand of Sisera, head of the host of Hazor, and into the hand of the Philistines, and into the hand of the king of Moab, and they fight against them,
BAWIPA Cathut hah a pahnim awh navah Hazar ransabawi Sisera kut dawk thoseh, Filistinnaw e kut dawk thoseh, Moab siangpahrang kut dawk thoseh, a yo teh ahnimanaw ni, ahnimanaw ni ahnimouh a tuk awh.
10 and they cry to YHWH, and say, We have sinned, because we have forsaken YHWH, and serve the Ba‘alim, and Ashtaroth, and now, deliver us out of the hand of our enemies, and we serve You.
BAWIPA koevah a hram awh teh, BAWIPA a pahnawt awh. Baal hoi Ashtaroth e thaw tawk awh kecu dawkvah, yon awh toe. Hatei sahnin tarannaw e kut dawk hoi na rungngang nateh na thaw ka tawk awh han telah a ti.
11 And YHWH sends Jerubba‘al, and Bedan, and Jephthah, and Samuel, and delivers you out of the hand of your surrounding enemies, and you dwell confidently.
BAWIPA ni Jerubbaal, Bendan, Jephthah, hoi Samuel tinaw a patoun teh, nangmanaw na tengpam e taran kut dawk hoi na rungngang awh teh, nangmanaw runae awm laipalah lungmawng lah na o awh.
12 And you see that Nahash king of the sons of Ammon has come against you, and you say to me, No, but a king reigns over us; and your God YHWH [is] your king!
Ammon miphunnaw e siangpahrang Nahash ni nangmouh na tuk awh hane hah, nangmouh ni na hmu awh navah nangmae Cathut teh nangmae siangpahrang nahlangva, telah nahoeh. Siangpahrang ni ma kaimouh na uk seh telah na ti awh.
13 And now, behold the king whom you have chosen—whom you have asked for! And behold, YHWH has placed a king over you.
Atu na hei e nangmouh ni na rawi e siangpahrang khenhaw! khenhaw! BAWIPA ni nangmae lathueng siangpahrang a rawi toe.
14 If you fear YHWH, and have served Him, and listened to His voice, then you do not provoke the mouth of YHWH, and you have been—both you and the king who has reigned over you—after your God YHWH.
Nangmouh ni BAWIPA na taki awh teh, BAWIPA e thaw na tawk awh pawiteh, BAWIPA e lawk na tarawi na ngâi awh pawiteh, nangmouh hoi nangmouh koe lawkcengkung siangpahrang hoi BAWIPA Cathut e hnuk na dawn awh pawiteh ahawi.
15 And if you do not listen to the voice of YHWH—then you have provoked the mouth of YHWH, and the hand of YHWH has been against you, and against your fathers.
Hatei Cathut e lawk na tarawi awh hoeh lah kâlawk na tapoe awh pawiteh, BAWIPA e a kut teh na mintoenaw e lathueng, runae a pha sak e patetlah nangmouh koehai a pha han.
16 Also now, station yourselves and see this great thing which YHWH is doing before your eyes;
BAWIPA ni nangmae na mithmu hno ka lentoe poung a sak hane hah, duem awm awh nateh khenhaw.
17 is it not wheat-harvest today? I call to YHWH, and He gives voices and rain; and know and see that your evil is great which you have done in the eyes of YHWH, to ask [for] a king for yourselves.”
Sahnin catun anae tueng nahoehmaw. Kho rak sak hane hoi khoparit sak hanelah, kai ni Cathut ka kaw han. Hatnavah, siangpahrang na heinae kong dawk, BAWIPA mithmu vah yonnae kalenpoung na sak awh e na kâpanue awh vaiteh na hmu awh han telah a ti.
18 And Samuel calls to YHWH, and YHWH gives voices and rain on that day, and all the people greatly fear YHWH and Samuel;
Samuel ni BAWIPA a kaw teh, BAWIPA ni hote hnin dawk, kho a parit sak teh, kho a rak sak. Hat torei teh taminaw ni BAWIPA hoi Samuel hah a taki poung awh.
19 and all the people say to Samuel, “Pray for your servants to your God YHWH, and we do not die, for we have added evil to all our sins to ask [for] a king for ourselves.”
Tamihunaw ni Samuel koevah, due awh hoeh nahan, BAWIPA na Cathut koe sannaw hanelah na ratoum pouh haw. Hettelah e Siangpahrang ka hei awh e heh, ka payonae kâthap sin e lah ao telah ati awh.
20 And Samuel says to the people, “Do not fear; you have done all this evil; only, do not turn aside from after YHWH—and you have served YHWH with all your heart,
Samuel ni taminaw koevah, taket awh hanh. Kahawi hoeh e heh na sak awh katang doeh. Hatei BAWIPA e hnuk na kabang awh e phen laipalah, BAWIPA e thaw na lungthin katang hoi tawk awh.
21 and you do not turn aside after the vain things which do not profit nor deliver, for they [are] vain,
Banglahai ka cungkeihoehe hnukkâbang e lahoi phen awh hanh. Hawinae na poe mahoeh na rungngang thai mahoeh. Hotnaw teh a yawmyin doeh.
22 for YHWH does not leave His people, on account of His great Name; for YHWH has been pleased to make you for a people to Him.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, ka lentoe e min kecu dawk BAWIPA ni a taminaw cettakhai mahoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, a tami lah coung sak e hah BAWIPA a lunghawinae doeh.
23 I, also, far be it from me to sin against YHWH, by ceasing to pray for you, and I have directed you in the good and upright way;
Kai hateh, nangmouh han ratoumnae kâhatnae lahoi BAWIPA koe ka yonnae hoi kâhlat naseh. Kai ni nangmouh hah kahawi ni teh ka lamkahawi hoi lamkatang na pâtue awh han.
24 only, fear YHWH, and you have served Him in truth with all your heart, for see that which He has made great with you;
Nangmouh ni BAWIPA dueng mah taket awh haw, lungthin abuemlahoi yuemkamcu lah amae thaw tawk awh haw. Bangkongtetpawiteh, nangmouh hanelah, a sak e hno kalenpoung hah pouk awh haw.
25 and if you really do evil, both you and your king are consumed.”
Nangmouh ni thoenae na sak awh rah pawiteh, nangmouh hoi nangmae siangpahrang khuehoi koung pâmit lah na o awh han telah atipouh.
