2 Samuel 12
1 And YHWH sends Nathan to David, and he comes to him, and says to him: “Two men have been in one city, one rich and one poor.
BOEIPA loh Nathan te David taengla a tueih tih a taeng a pha vaengah David te, “Kho pakhat ah hlang panit om tih, pakhat tah hlanglen, pakhat tah vawtthoek la om.
2 The rich has very many flocks and herds,
Hlanglen tah boiva khaw, saelhung khaw, a yet la muep a khueh.
3 but the poor one has nothing, except one little ewe-lamb which he has bought and keeps alive. And it grows up together with him and with his sons. It eats of his morsel, and it drinks from his cup, and it lies in his bosom, and it is as a daughter to him.
Tedae khodaeng taengah tah a lai duen ca tumanu pakhat phoeiah a tloe om pawh. Te te a hing sak tih amah taengah a ca rhoek taengah rhoeng hang, a buhkam te a cah tih a boengloeng te a tul. A rhang dongah ip tih canu bangla a taengah a khueh.
4 And a traveler comes to the rich man, and he spares to take from his own flock, and from his own herd, to prepare for the traveling [man] who has come to him; and he takes the ewe-lamb of the poor man and prepares it for the man who has come to him.”
Hlanglen pakhat tah tekah hlang taengah yinthing la a pawk pah. Tedae anih taengla aka thoeng yiin kok nah ham amah kah boiva neh a saelhung tah loh hamla a hnaih. Te dongah khodaeng ca kah tumanu te a loh pah tih anih taengla aka thoeng hlang ham te a ngawn pah,” a ti nah.
5 And the anger of David burns against the man exceedingly, and he says to Nathan, “YHWH lives, surely the man who is doing this [is] a son of death,
Te vaengah David kah a thintoek tah tekah hlang taengah sai khungdaeng. Te dongah Nathan te, “BOEIPA kah hingnah dongah te tla aka saii hlang tah duek ca kangna saeh.
6 and [for] the ewe-lamb he repays fourfold, because that he has done this thing, and because that he had no pity.”
A thinphat pawt tih hekah hno he a saii dongah tumanu te rhaepli la thuung saeh,” a ti nah.
7 And Nathan says to David, “You [are] the man! Thus said YHWH, God of Israel: I anointed you for king over Israel, and I delivered you out of the hand of Saul;
Te vaengah Nathan loh David te, “Tekah hlang tah namah ni. Israel Pathen BOEIPA loh, ‘Kai loh Israel manghai la nang kang koelh tih Saul kut lamkah khaw kai long ni nang kan huul.
8 and I give to you the house of your lord, and the wives of your lord, into your bosom, and I give the house of Israel and Judah to you; and if [that is] too little, then I add such and such [things] to you.
Na boeipa kah im te namah taengah, na boei rhoek kah a yuu rhoek khaw na rhang dongah kan tloeng coeng. Israel neh Judah imlo khaw nang taengah kam paek coeng. A yol bal atah he khaw ke khaw nang ham man kan thap ve.
9 Why have you despised the word of YHWH, to do evil in His eyes? You have struck Uriah the Hittite by the sword, and you have taken his wife for a wife for yourself, and you have slain him by the sword of the sons of Ammon.
Balae tih a mikhmuh ah boethae saii ham BOEIPA ol te na sawtsit. Ka mikhmuh ah Khitti Uriah te cunghang neh na ngawn. A yuu te namah yuu la na rhawt pah phoeiah amah te Ammon koca rhoek kah cunghang neh na ngawn.
10 And now, the sword does not turn aside from your house for all time, because you have despised Me, and take the wife of Uriah the Hittite to be for a wife for yourself;
Kai nan hnaep tih Khitti Uriah yuu te na rhawt pah phoeiah namah yuu la na khueh. Te dongah kumhal duela na imkhui lamkah cunghang te nong voel mahpawh.’”
11 thus said YHWH: Behold, I am raising up calamity against you, out of your [own] house, and have taken your wives before your eyes, and given [them] to your neighbor, and he has lain with your wives before the eyes of this sun;
“BOEIPA loh he ni a thui, ‘Na imkhui lamloh nang soah yoethaenah ka pai sak ni. Na yuu rhoek te na mikhmuh ah ka loh vetih na hui taengla ka paek ni. Na yuu rhoek te khothaih sale ah a ih puei ni.
12 for you have done [it] in secret, and I do this thing before all Israel, and before the sun.”
Yinhnuk ah na saii dae olka te kai loh Israel tom neh khomik hmaiah kam phoe ni,’ a ti,” a ti nah.
13 And David says to Nathan, “I have sinned against YHWH.” And Nathan says to David, “Also—YHWH has caused your sin to pass away; you do not die;
Te daengah David loh Nathan taengah, “BOEIPA taengah ka tholh coeng,” a ti nah. Nathan loh David te, “BOEIPA loh na tholh a khoe coeng tih na duek mahpawh.
14 only, because you have caused the enemies of YHWH to greatly despise by this thing, also—the son who is born to you surely dies.”
Tedae te bang khoboe neh BOEIPA kah thunkha rhoek te yah na bai la na bai sak dongah nang ham camoe aka thaang te duek rhoe duek ni,” a ti nah.
15 And Nathan goes to his house, and YHWH strikes the boy, whom the wife of Uriah has borne to David, and it is incurable;
Nathan loh amah im la a caeh nen tah Uriah yuu loh David ham a cun pah camoe te BOEIPA loh a vuek tih a rhawp pah.
16 and David seeks God for the youth, and David keeps a fast, and has gone in and lodged, and lain on the earth.
Te dongah David loh camoe hamla Pathen te a toem. Yaehnah khaw David loh a yaeh tih a khum puei. Diklai dongah yalh tih rhaehba sut.
17 And [the] elderly of his house rise against him, to raise him up from the earth, and he has not been willing, nor has he eaten bread with them;
A imkhui kah patong rhoek loh anih te diklai lamloh thoh hamla a taengah pai uh. Tedae ngaih pawt tih amih taengah buh ca voel pawh.
18 and it comes to pass on the seventh day, that the boy dies, and the servants of David fear to declare to him that the boy is dead, for they said, “Behold, in the boy being alive we spoke to him, and he did not listen to our voice; and how do we say to him, The boy is dead? Then he has done evil.”
A hnin rhih dongah camoe te duek. Tedae camoe a duek te amah taengah puen hamla David kah sal rhoek loh a rhih uh. “Camoe a hing la a om vaengah pataeng anih te m'voek uh dae mamih ol te a hnatun moenih ta. Boethae saii mai koinih camoe a duek te anih taengah metlam n'ti eh,” a ti uh.
19 And David sees that his servants are whispering, and David understands that the boy is dead, and David says to his servants, “Is the boy dead?” And they say, “Dead.”
Tedae a sal rhoek a sisuk uh te David loh a hmuh vaengah camoe duek tila David loh a yakming. Te vaengah David loh a sal rhoek te, “Camoe te duek coeng a?” a ti nah hatah, “Duek coeng,” a ti na uh.
20 And David rises from the earth, and bathes and anoints [himself], and changes his raiment, and comes into the house of YHWH, and bows himself, and comes to his house, and asks and they place bread for him, and he eats.
Te daengah David te diklai lamloh thoo tih, pumrho a silh, situi a hluk, a himbai hainak te a tho. Te phoeiah BOEIPA kah im te a paan tih a bawk. Amah im la a mael phoeiah caak a hoe dongah a tawn pa uh tih a caak.
21 And his servants say to him, “What [is] this thing you have done? Because of the living boy you have fasted and you weep, and when the boy is dead you have risen and eat bread.”
Te vaengah a sal rhoek loh amah taengah, “Hebang khoboe he metlam nim, camoe a hing vaengah caak yaeh na saii tih na rhap. Camoe a duek vaengah nim na thoo tih buh na caak,” a ti na uh.
22 And he says, “While the boy is alive I have fasted and I weep, for I said, Who knows [if] YHWH pities me and the boy has lived?
Tedae, “Camoe a hing vaengah caak ka yaeh tih ka rhah te, ‘U long a ming, BOEIPA kai he n'rhen khaw n'rhen mai vetih camoe te hing mai mako,’ ka ti dae ta.
23 And now, he has died, why [is] this—I fast? Am I able to bring him back again? I am going to him, and he does not return to me.”
Tedae a duek coeng dongah ba ham lae kai loh ka yaeh voel eh. Anih ha mael ham te ka saii thai aya? Kamah tah anih taengla ka cet suidae anih tah kai taengla ha mael pawh,” a ti.
24 And David comforts his wife Bathsheba, and goes in to her, and lies with her, and she bears a son, and he calls his name Solomon; and YHWH has loved him,
Te phoeiah David loh a yuu Bathsheba te a hloep tih a taengla a kun thil. Te vaengah anih te a yalh puei tih ca tongpa a sak pah. A ming a sak vaengah Solomon la a sak tih BOEIPA loh anih a lungnah.
25 and sends by the hand of Nathan the prophet, and calls his name Jedidiah, because of YHWH.
Te dongah tonghma Nathan kut ah ol a pat tih camoe ming te BOEIPA kah Jedidiah la a khue.
26 And Joab fights against Rabbah of the sons of Ammon, and captures the royal city,
Te vaengah Joab loh Ammon koca rhoek kah Rabbah te a vathoh thil tih mangpa khopuei te a rhawt pah.
27 and Joab sends messengers to David and says, “I have fought against Rabbah—I have also captured the city of waters;
Te vaengah Joab loh David taengah puencawn a tueih tih, “Rabbah te ka vathoh thil tih, tui kah khopuei te khaw ka buem coeng.
28 and now, gather the rest of the people, and encamp against the city, and capture it, lest I capture the city, and my name has been called on it.”
Te dongah pilnam hlangrhuel te coi laeh. Khopuei te rhaeh thil lamtah buem laeh. Kamah loh khopuei te ka buem vetih kamah ming la ka khue ve,” a ti nah.
29 And David gathers all the people, and goes to Rabbah, and fights against it, and captures it;
Te dongah David loh pilnam te boeih a coi tih Rabbah la cet. Te phoeiah a vathoh thil bal tih Rabbah te buem.
30 and he takes the crown of their king from off his head, and its weight [is] a talent of gold, and precious stones, and it is on the head of David; and he has brought out the spoil of the city—very much;
A manghai kah rhuisam te a lu dong lamkah a dul pah vaengah sui neh lung vang te a khiing he talent khat lo. Te te David lu dongah a khuem tih khopuei kah kutbuem a loh khaw muep yet.
31 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 of iron, and has caused them to pass over into the brick-kiln; and so he does to all the cities of the sons of Ammon; and David turns back, and all the people, to Jerusalem.
A khuikah pilnam te a khuen tih hlawh taengah, thi tlang taengah, thi yoeng taengah a khueh. Amih te taptlang dongah a tueih. Te tlam te Ammon koca rhoek kah khopuei tom te a saii daengah David neh pilnam pum loh Jerusalem la mael pueng.
