2 Samuel 1
1 And it comes to pass after the death of Saul, that David has returned from striking the Amalekite, and David dwells in Ziklag [for] two days,
Sawl a due hnukkhu, Devit teh Amaleknaw a theinae koehoi a ban teh, Ziklag kho hnin hni touh ao.
2 and it comes to pass, on the third day, that behold, a man has come in out of the camp from Saul, and his garments [are] torn, and earth [is] on his head; and it comes to pass in his coming to David, that he falls to the earth and pays respect.
A hnin thum hnin vah tami buet touh amae hni a ravei teh a lû dawk vaiphu a kâphuen nalaihoi a tho. Devit koe a pha navah talai dawk a tabo.
3 And David says to him, “Where do you come from?” And he says to him, “I have escaped out of the camp of Israel.”
Devit ni vah nâ lahoi maw na tho telah a pacei. Ahni ni Isarelnaw e tumpupnae koehoi ka yawng telah ati.
4 And David says to him, “What has been the matter? Please declare [it] to me.” And he says, “That the people have fled from the battle, and also a multitude of the people have fallen, and they die; and also Saul and his son Jonathan have died.”
Devit ni hetheh bang e hno nama, dei haw atipouh. Ahni ni Isarelnaw teh, tarantuknae hmuen koehoi taminaw a yawng awh teh, tami moikapap a due. Sawl hoi a capa Jonathan hai a due toe telah bout a dei pouh.
5 And David says to the youth who is declaring [it] to him, “How have you known that Saul and his son Jonathan [are] dead?”
Devit ni kadeikung thoundoun koe, bangtelah hoi maw Sawl hoi a capa Jonathan a due tie na panue telah atipouh.
6 And the youth who is declaring [it] to him says, “I happened to meet in Mount Gilboa, and behold, Saul is leaning on his spear; and behold, the chariots and those possessing horses have followed him;
Hote thoundoun ni, kai teh Gilead mon dawk ka pha navah, Sawl ni a tahroe a vaiteh leng hoi marangransanaw ni rek a pâlei awh.
7 and he turns behind him, and sees me, and calls to me, and I say, Here I [am].
Sawl ni hnukkhu lah a khet navah kai hah na hmu teh na kaw.
8 And he says to me, Who [are] you? And I say to him, I [am] an Amalekite.
Kai ni vah, ka o ka ti pouh. Nang hah apimaw telah na pacei. Kai teh, Amalek tami doeh telah bout ka ti pouh.
9 And he says to me, Please stand over me and put me to death, for the arrow has seized me, for all my soul [is] still in me.
Sawl ni kai koe tho nateh, kai na thet leih, kai ka due thai hoeh dawkvah, puenghoi patawnae ka khang telah ati e patetlah.
10 And I stand over him, and put him to death, for I knew that he does not live after his falling, and I take the crown which [is] on his head, and the bracelet which [is] on his arm, and bring them to my lord here.”
Ahni koe ka kangdue teh ka thei. Bangkongtetpawiteh, hottelah a rawp toung dawkvah hring mahoeh toe tie ka panue. A lû dawk kâmuk e bawilakhung hoi a kut dawk a buet e cawce hah ka rading pouh teh, ka bawipa koevah ka sin telah a dei.
11 And David takes hold on his garments, and tears them, and also all the men who [are] with him,
Devit ni ahni hah a ravei, hot patetlah a taminaw ni lengkaleng a sak van awh.
12 and they mourn, and weep, and fast until the evening, for Saul, and for his son Jonathan, and for the people of YHWH, and for the house of Israel, because they have fallen by the sword.
Sawl hoi a capa Jonathan Bawipa e taminaw hoi Isarel imthungnaw ni, tahloi hoi a due dawkvah ahni hanlah tangmin totouh a khuika awh teh rawca a hai awh.
13 And David says to the youth who is declaring [it] to him, “Where [are] you from?” And he says, “I [am] the son of a sojourner, an Amalekite.”
Hote kamthang ka dei e thoundoun koe Devit ni, nang teh nâ lahoi maw na tho telah a pacei. Kai teh Jentel miphun Amelek tami doeh telah a dei.
14 And David says to him, “How were you not afraid to put forth your hand to destroy the anointed of YHWH?”
Devit ni ahni koe, BAWIPA ni satui awi e thei hanelah bangkong maw na kut na pho.
15 And David calls to one of the youths and says, “Draw near—fall on him”; and he strikes him, and he dies;
Hahoi, Devit ni thoundoun buet touh a kaw teh, ahni hah thet lawih atipouh e patetlah thoundoun teh a thei.
16 and David says to him, “Your blood [is] on your own head, for your mouth has testified against you, saying, I put to death the anointed of YHWH.”
Devit ni na thipaling teh nama e na lû van bawt naseh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, nama e na pahni roeroe hoi BAWIPA satui awi lah kaawm e ka thei na ti telah atipouh.
17 And David laments with this lamentation over Saul, and over his son Jonathan;
Devit ni Sawl hoi Jonathan hah a khui.
18 and he says to teach the sons of Judah “The Bow”; behold, it is written on the Scroll of the Upright:
Judahnaw koe a cangkhai hane lilava la tie hateh, Jashar e cauk dawk thut e la hah doeh.
19 “The beauty of Israel [Is] wounded on your high places; How the mighty have fallen!
Isarel na bawilennae, na hmuen rasang dawk, duenae na khang toe. Tami athakaawme taminaw hai a due awh toe.
20 Do not declare [it] in Gath, Do not proclaim the tidings in the streets of Ashkelon, Lest they rejoice—The daughters of the Philistines, Lest they exult—The daughters of the uncircumcised!
Gath vah pathang awh hanh. Askelon khopui e lam dawk thaisak awh hanh. Filistin canunaw a lunghawi awh langvaih. Vuensom ka a hoeh e napuinaw ni a lunghawi awh langvaih tie ngaihri han ao.
21 Mountains of Gilboa! No dew nor rain be on you, And fields of raised-offerings! For there has become loathsome The shield of the mighty, The shield of Saul—without the anointed with oil.
Oe Gilboa monnaw, nangmae lathueng tadamtui hoi khotui bawt hanh naseh. Law ni thueng kawi e a pawhik tâcawt sak hanh naseh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, hote hmuen koe athakaawme ni a sin e saiphei, Sawl ni a sin e bahling, satui hoi hluk hoe e saiphei patetlah tâkhawng awh.
22 From the blood of the wounded, From the fat of the mighty, The bow of Jonathan Has not turned backward; And the sword of Saul does not return empty.
Thei e naw e thi koehoi, thaonae athâw koehoi, Jonathan e pala teh hnuklah bout ban hoeh. Sawl e tahloi hai ayawm lah ban hoeh.
23 Saul and Jonathan! They are loved and pleasant in their lives, And in their death they have not been parted. They have been lighter than eagles, They have been mightier than lions!
Sawl hoi Jonathan teh a hringnae ngai a tho, a due roi nahai kâkapek roi hoeh. Mataw hlak a hue a rang teh sendek hlak a tha ao roi.
24 Daughters of Israel! Weep for Saul, Who is clothing you [in] scarlet with delights. Who is lifting up ornaments of gold on your clothing.
Oe Isarel canunaw Sawl hah khui awh haw. Ngai kaawm e hni paling ka khohnat sak e, sui hoi talung aphu kaawm e hoi na ka pathoupkung doeh.
25 How the mighty have fallen In the midst of the battle! Jonathan [was] wounded on your high places!
Taran kâtuknae koe athakaawme taminaw a due awh toe. Oe Jonathan nange karasangpoung e a hmuennaw dawk nang teh na due toe khe.
26 I am in distress for you, my brother Jonathan, You were very pleasant to me; Your love was wonderful to me, Above the love of women!
Ka nawngha Jonathan nang dawk ka kângairu. Nang teh ka hui kahawipoung lah na o teh, kai na lungpatawnae teh kângairu, napuinaw lungpataw e a cei takhai.
27 How the mighty have fallen, Indeed, the weapons of war perish!”
Thakaawmnaw hai a due awh toe. Tarantuknae senehmaicanaw hoi koung a kahma toe.
