1 Samuel 19
1 And Saul speaks to his son Jonathan, and to all his servants, to put David to death,
Devit thei hanelah, Sawl ni a capa Jonathan hoi a sannaw koe a dei pouh. Hatei Sawl capa Jonathan ni Devit lung a patawpoung.
2 and Jonathan son of Saul delighted in David exceedingly, and Jonathan declares [it] to David, saying, “My father Saul is seeking to put you to death, and now, please take heed in the morning, and you have abided in a secret place and been hidden,
Jonathan ni Devit koe, Apa Sawl ni na thei hane a kâcai. Hatdawkvah amom totouh kâhruetcuet, soumtinae koe kâhrawk.
3 and I go out, and have stood by the side of my father in the field where you [are], and I speak of you to my father, and have seen what [is coming], and have declared [it] to you.”
Ka cei vaiteh na onae law vah apa e ateng ka kangdue han. Nange kong apa hoi kâpan roi han. Ka thai e lawk nang koe ka dei han telah kâhruetcuetnae a poe.
4 And Jonathan speaks good of David to his father Saul and says to him, “Do not let the king sin against his servant, against David, because he has not sinned against you, and because his works [are] very good for you;
Jonathan ni a na pa Sawl koe Devit hah a oup teh, ahni koe siangpahrang ni a san Devit koelah yonnae rumram lah sak hanh naseh. Ahni ni nang koe yonnae sak hoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, a sak e hnonaw nang hane aphu hroung ao.
5 indeed, he puts his life in his hand, and strikes the Philistine, and YHWH works a great salvation for all Israel; you have seen, and rejoice, and why do you sin against innocent blood, to put David to death for nothing?”
Amae hringnae pasai laipalah, Filistin tami hah a thei. BAWIPA ni kalenpounge tânae Isarelnaw koe a pha sak e na hmu teh na lung ahawi. Hatdawkvah, kayonhoehe a thipaling yon kaawm hoeh e Devit khuet na thei han vaw telah Sawl koe atipouh.
6 And Saul listens to the voice of Jonathan, and Saul swears, “YHWH lives—he does not die.”
Sawl ni Jonathan dei e lawk hah a ngai. Sawl ni BAWIPA min dawk thoe a kâbo teh ahni teh thet mahoeh telah a ti.
7 And Jonathan calls for David, and Jonathan declares all these words to him, and Jonathan brings in David to Saul, and he is before him as before.
Jonathan ni Devit a kaw teh, hote lawknaw a dei pouh hnukkhu, Devit teh Sawl koe a hrawi teh, ahmoun e patetlah ahni koe bout ao.
8 And there adds to be war, and David goes out and fights against the Philistines, and strikes among them [with] a great striking, and they flee from his face.
Tarankâtuknae bout ao teh, Devit ni Filistinnaw hoi kâtuk hanelah a cei teh tami moikapap a thei.
9 And a spirit of sadness [from] YHWH is to Saul, and he is sitting in his house, and his javelin [is] in his hand, and David is playing with the hand,
Sawl ni a im dawk tahroe hoi a tahung nah BAWIPA koehoi e muitha kathout ni a tho sin. Devit ni ratoung a kueng pouh.
10 and Saul seeks to strike with the javelin through David, and through the wall, and he frees himself from the presence of Saul, and he strikes the javelin through the wall; and David has fled and escapes during that night.
Sawl ni tapang dawk khik kâbet lah a thut hanelah a noe. Hatei Sawl e hmalah hoi a roun thai teh, tahroe tapang dawk moncawm a um. Hottelah Devit a yawng teh hote karum dawk a hlout.
11 And Saul sends messengers to the house of David to watch him, and to put him to death in the morning; and his wife Michal declares [it] to David, saying, “If you are not delivering your life tonight—tomorrow you are put to death.”
Sawl ni Devit hah im vah pawp vaiteh, thei hanelah amom vah patounenaw a patoun, Devit e a yu Mikhal ni, atu tangmin na hringnae na khenyawn hoehpawiteh, tangtho vah na thei awh han telah atipouh.
12 And Michal causes David to go down through the window, and he goes on, and flees, and escapes;
Mikhal ni Devit hah hlalangaw dawk hoi a kumsak teh Devit a kâran teh a hlout.
13 and Michal takes the teraphim, and lays [it] on the bed, and she has put the mattress of goats’ [hair for] his pillows, and covers [it] with a garment.
Mikhal ni meikaphawk hah a la teh, ikhun dawk a i sak a lû koe lah hmae muen e bawilakhung a hruek teh hni a khu.
14 And Saul sends messengers to take David, and she says, “He [is] sick.”
Devit man hanelah Sawl ni patounenaw a patoun nah Mikhal ni a tak a pataw atipouh.
15 And Saul sends the messengers to see David, saying, “Bring him up in the bed to me in order to put him to death.”
Sawl ni Devit khet hanelah patounenaw a patoun teh ka thei thai nahan a ikhun hoi kâ ka yawn awh atipouh.
16 And the messengers come in, and behold, the teraphim [are] on the bed, and the mattress of goats’ [hair for] his pillows.
Patounenaw a kâen awh navah a ikhun dawk meikaphawk a lû koelah hmae muen ka lahoung e a hmu awh.
17 And Saul says to Michal, “Why have you thus deceived me—that you send my enemy away, and he escapes?” And Michal says to Saul, “He said to me, Send me away. Why do I put you to death?”
Sawl ni Mikhal koevah kai hah bangkongmaw hete lah na dum, a hlout nahanelah ka taran na tâco sak atipouh. Mikhal ni ahni ni kai hanelah kai na cetsak haw, nahoeh pawiteh na thei han telah ati telah Sawl koe a dei pouh.
18 And David has fled, and escapes, and comes to Samuel at Ramath, and declares to him all that Saul has done to him, and he goes, he and Samuel, and they dwell in Naioth.
Devit teh yout a yawng teh a hlout. Ramah kho Samuel koe a pha. Ahni koe Sawl ni a sak e pueng a dei pouh. Samuel hoi a cei roi teh Naioth vah ao.
19 And it is declared to Saul, saying, “Behold, David [is] in Naioth in Ramah.”
Sawl koe Devit teh Ramah kho hoi Naioth hmuen koe ao telah a dei pouh.
20 And Saul sends messengers to take David, and they see the assembly of the prophets prophesying, and Samuel standing, set over them, and the Spirit of God is on Saul’s messengers, and they prophesy—they also.
Devit man hanelah Sawl ni a patounenaw bout a patoun, lawk ka dei e profet hu touh dueng hah a hmu awh. Samuel a kangdue teh, profetnaw a hrawi nah Cathut e Muitha ni Sawl e patounenaw lathueng a pha pouh teh, ahnimouh hai profet lawk a dei awh.
21 And they declare [it] to Saul, and he sends other messengers, and they prophesy—they also; and Saul adds and sends messengers a third time, and they prophesy—they also.
Ahnimouh ni hote a kong hah Sawl koe a dei pouh awh navah, Sawl ni alouke a patounenaw bout a patoun. Ahnimouh hai profet lawk a dei awh. Sawl ni apâthum lah patounenaw bout a patoun nah, ahnimouh hai profet lawk a dei awh.
22 And he goes—he also—to Ramath, and comes to the great well which [is] in Sechu, and asks and says, “Where [are] Samuel and David?” And [one] says, “Behold, in Naioth in Ramah.”
Sawl ama hai Ramah kho a cei teh, Seku e tuiim kalen poung koe a pha nah, Samuel hoi Devit na maw ao telah a pacei nah Ramah kho Naioth hmuen koe ao telah tami buet touh ni a dei pouh.
23 And he goes there—to Naioth in Ramah, and the Spirit of God is on him also; and he goes, going on, and he prophesies until his coming to Naioth in Ramah,
Sawl teh Ramah kho Naioth hmuen koe lah a cei. Cathut e Muitha ahnie lathueng vah a pha van, a cei laihoi profet lawk Ramah kho hoi Naioth hmuen koe a pha totouh a dei.
24 and he strips off—he also—his garments, and prophesies—he also—before Samuel, and falls down naked all that day and all the night; therefore they say, “Is Saul also among the prophets?”
A khohna e rading teh, Samuel e a hmalah profet lawk a dei. Karum khodai hote hnin dawk caici lah a i. Hatdawkvah, ahnimouh ni Sawl hai profetnaw koe ka bawk e namaw telah ati awh.
