< 2 Samuel 14 >

1 And Joab son of Zeruial knows that the heart of the king [is] on Absalom,
Chuin lengpan Absalom hi angai cha lheh jeng taiti Zeruiah chapa Joab hin ahin hetdoh tan ahi.
2 and Joab sends to Tekoah, and takes a wise woman from there, and says to her, “Please feign yourself a mourner, and now put on garments of mourning, and do not anoint yourself with oil, and you have been as a woman mourning for the dead [for] these many days,
Joab hin mi asolin Tekoa khosunga mi numei chingtah khat aga hol doh sah in, amanu koma chun asei tai, “Nangma tun lunghem a pul dou dou jeng tobang'in kisem in, pul douna ponsil kisil’in lang, thao jeng jong kinu dan, ajeh chu phat sottah sunga thi op’a um numei pul dou dou jeng bangin um'in ati.
3 and you have gone to the king, and spoken to him, according to this word”; and Joab puts the words into her mouth.
Chutengle lengpa koma ga chelut’inlang, ajah a hitin ga sei in, “ati, Joab chun asei ding thu jouse abonchan amanu chu athu mop tai.
4 And the woman of Tekoah speaks to the king, and falls on her face to the earth, and pays respect, and says, “Save, O king.”
Tekoa khosunga numeinu chu lengpa koma ahung phat’in abohkhup in tol'a amai asulut in jana ape tai, chule aman aseiyin, “Vo lengpa, nei pan pin,” ati.
5 And the king says to her, “What do you [want]?” And she says, “I [am] truly a widow woman, and my husband dies,
Hichun lengpan jong adong in, “Na gentheina ipi pen ham?” atileh, amanun adonbut’in, O kaden, keima meithainu kahi, kaji pa athia ahitai ati.
6 and your maidservant has two sons; and both of them strive in a field, and there is no deliverer between them, and one strikes the other, and puts him to death;
Chule nasoh nu kei hin chapa ni kaneiyin, amani chu lou jaova ahung kibao lhonin akina lhone; hichun amani phel khen ding mihem khat cha anaum lou jeh in khatpan khatjoh pachu ajep’in athat pai tai.
7 and behold, the whole family has risen against your maidservant, and say, Give up him who strikes his brother, and we put him to death for the life of his brother whom he has slain, and we also destroy the heir; and they have quenched my coal which is left—so as not to set a name and remnant on the face of the ground for my husband.”
Hijeh chun tun vetan, insung pumpi ahung kon uvin nasoh nu hi eidel khum’uvin hitin asei uve, Asopipa that pachu hinlha doh loiyin, aman asopi pa athat in ahinkho khel a keihon ama katha diu ahi,’ tin aseiyuve; hitobang hin amahon ama chilhah jong asuh bei teidiu dol ahitai. Hitia hi amahon keima mei-am jeng jong achen mit uva hiche leiset chunga kaji pa min asuh mang diu, achi khai ding jong aumsah lou diu ahitai,” ati.
8 And the king says to the woman, “Go to your house, and I give charge concerning you.”
Chuphat’in lengpan jong numei nu koma chun hitin aseiye, “keima boldin dalhan lang, Na’in lama chen, keiman anavesui tange koiman atohkhah lou nadin,’ tin asol tai.
9 And the woman of Tekoah says to the king, “On me, my lord, O king, [is] the iniquity, and on the house of my father; and the king and his throne [are] innocent.”
Chuin Tekoa khoa hung kon numeinu chun lengpa koma chun hitin asei kit’e, kakipah e, kapu lengpa chule “Kapu lengpa chu keima eikithopi jeh a nahin seiset khah uleh themmona chu keima le ka inkote chunga chujo hen, lengpa le alaltou na vang themmona beiyin umjo hen,’ tin aseiye.
10 And the king says, “He who speaks to you, and you have brought him to me, then he does not add to come against you anymore.”
Chuin lengpan asei kit in, “Mihem khat touvin nakoma thu asei kit’a ahileh ama chu kei koma hin pui jeng in, ama chun nang ma natham khah kit louhel ding ahi,’ ati peh e.
11 And she says, “Please let the king remember by your God YHWH, that the redeemer of blood does not add to destroy, and they do not destroy my son”; and he says, “YHWH lives; if there falls [even one] hair of your son to the earth.”
Hichun amanun jong asei kit in, “Lungset tah in Pakai na Pathen henga nei taopeh teitei in, chutia chu thisan phu lanom pan mi atha kit louva, kachapa atha louna din,’ atileh; lengpan jong aseipeh-in, “Pakai hing jing mina kasei ahi, nachapa chu asamjang khat jeng cha jong kisubui lou ding ahi,’ ati tai.
12 And the woman says, “Please let your maidservant speak a word to my lord the king”; and he says, “Speak.”
Hichun numei nun asei kit’in, “Lungset tah-in nasohnu kei hi kapu lengpa koma thu cheng khat beh neisei sah thei kit ding ham,’ atia ahileh; lengpan jong, “Seiyin seiyin,” ati.
13 And the woman says, “And why have you thought thus concerning the people of God? Indeed, the king is speaking this thing as a guilty one, in that the king has not brought back his outcast;
Hichun numei nun asei in, “Chuti ahileh ipi dinga nangman Pathen mite douna a hitobang thilgon hi nanei ham? Ijeh-inem itileh lengpan hitobanga thutanna naneiya kon hin lengpan nadel mangpa inlama napuilut loujeh-in nathu tan hi nangma chungma ma a nakitan ahi tai ati.
14 for we surely die, and [are] as water which is running down to the earth, which is not gathered, and God does not accept a person, and has devised plans in that the outcast is not outcast by Him.
Ajeh chu eiho Ibon chauva athi cheh ding Ihiu’ve, chule Ibon chauva tol'a twi kisung lha kinung thaldoh kit thei lou tobang ihiuvin ahi, Pathen in jong mithi long damsa chu phong doh kit deh tapon te; chule lengpa chun ama toh ekikhan teng ule ama toh ihung eumkhom theikit nadiu aneiyin ahi.
15 And now that I have come to speak this word to my lord the king, [it is] because the people made me afraid, and your maidservant says, Please let me speak to the king; it may be the king does the word of his handmaid,
Chule keima hiche thuseiya hi kapu lengpa heng hung kahi, ipijeh-inem itileh mipi hin keima eitijat sah tauvin chuphat’a nasohnu ken jong hitia hi kagela, ‘Keiman lengpa koma gasei tange, ijem itileh lengpan asohnu kei thuseihi ngai jeng khat nan’te
16 for the king listens to deliver his handmaid out of the paw of the man [seeking] to destroy me and my son together out of the inheritance of God,
Chule lengpan jong eisumang ding miho khut’a eihuh doh tei ding ahi, Pathen mite lah a ei suhmang sah lou ding ahi.’
17 and your maidservant says, Please let the word of my lord the king be for ease; for as a messenger of God so [is] my lord the king, to understand the good and the evil; and your God YHWH is with you.”
Henge, kapu lengpan lungthim chamna eihin pih kit diu ahi. chule keiman kahen nangma hi thilpha thilse hekhen dola Pathen vantil tabang nahi. Pakai na-Pathenin napanpi jing hen,” ati.
18 And the king answers and says to the woman, “Please do not hide from me the thing that I am asking you”; and the woman says, “Please let my lord the king speak.”
Hichun lengpan jong numeinu chu adonbut’in, “Keiman kadoh doh chu ipi hijong le imlou hellin neihin seipi in ati. Hichun numeinun jong aseiyin, “Kapu lengpan na seinom nom sei jengin,’ atitai.
19 And the king says, “Is the hand of Joab with you in all this?” And the woman answers and says, “Your soul lives, my lord, O king, none [turn] to the right or to the left from all that my lord the king has spoken; for your servant Joab commanded me, and he put all these words in the mouth of your maidservant.
Hichun lengpan adong in, “Thil hijatpi nasei na a hi nangma Joab chutoh kihoutoh a kikhut jop nahim?” atileh; numeinu jong chun adonbut’in, “Kapu lengpa, eti kem kaseilep ding ham? Koima chan nangma kommah emacha sel thei ponte. Henge, Joab in eihinsol a chule thu hijat pi hi aman nasohnu keima hi eithumop’a ka kamsung'a eikhumpeh ahinai ati.
20 Your servant Joab has done this thing in order to bring around the appearance of the thing, and my lord [is] wise, according to the wisdom of a messenger of God, to know all that [is] in the land.”
Nalhacha Joab chun nalung nakhel a thil kigon dol jouse nakhel doh ding gelkhoh na a hiche hi abol anahi. Ahoi chu hita leh kapu nangma hi leiset chunga um thil ijakai hetna dol a na chih dan mong mong Pathen Vantil chihna tobang bang a hi bou’ve,” atin ahi.
21 And the king says to Joab, “Now behold, you have done this thing; and go, bring back the young man Absalom.”
Chutah chun lengpan jong Joab koma asei in asol tan ahi, aphai tun chinlang golhangpa Absalom chu ga nung pui lut tan,” ati.
22 And Joab falls on his face to the earth, and pays respect, and blesses the king, and Joab says, “Today your servant has known that I have found grace in your eyes, my lord, O king, in that the king has done the word of his servant.”
Chuin Joab jong chu tol'a abohkhup in, jana apen, lengpa phatthei aboh in, hiti hin Joab chun asei tai, “Tuni hin kapu lengpa mitmun lungset na kachang mong mong e, ti na soh pa thil ngeh khoh pen hi nanop peh jenge,’ ati.
23 And Joab rises and goes to Geshur, and brings in Absalom to Jerusalem,
Chuin Joab jong akipat doh paiyin Geshur gam'a achen Absalom chu Jerusalem a ahin lepui tai.
24 and the king says, “Let him turn around to his house, and he does not see my face.” And Absalom turns around to his house, and he has not seen the face of the king.
Ahin lengpan hitin thupeh aneiye, “Absalom hi ama insunga chimei thei ahi, ahin keima angsunga vang hung vah lut thei louhel ding ahi,” ati. Hijeh chun Absalom in lengpa cu amutapon ahi.
25 And there was no man [so] beautiful in all Israel like Absalom, to praise greatly; from the sole of his foot even to his crown there was no blemish in him;
Tun Israel chate lah a Absalom tobanga amel hoi jeh a seiphat thei dang koima cha anaum poi; Absalom hi akeng khotal juma pat alujang gei a achunga nolna ding imacha beihel ahi.
26 and in his shaving his head—and it has been at the end of year by year that he shaves [it], for it [is] heavy on him, and he has shaved it—he has even weighed out the hair of his head—two hundred shekels by the king’s weight.
Alujang sam chu kumkhat a khatvei bou ache ji ahi chule ajeh chu agih behseh jijeh ahi. hitia hi asam akivoa thil te naa atea ahileh, asam jeng jong chu shekel ja ni cheng agih jin ahi.
27 And there are born to Absalom three sons and one daughter, and her name [is] Tamar; she was a woman of beautiful appearance.
Absalom hin chapa thum ahing in, chule chanu khat jong ahing in, achanu min chu Tamar akiti; Tamar jong hi numei hoi tah khatma ahi.
28 And Absalom dwells in Jerusalem [for] two years of days, and he has not seen the face of the king;
Hiti hin Absalom hi kum ni lhingset Jerusalema acheng ahin, hijongle lengpa ang sungah khatvei cha avah lut kha hih beh in ahi.
29 and Absalom sends to Joab, to send him to the king, and he has not been willing to come to him; and he sends again a second time, and he has not been willing to come.
Chuin Absalom chun Joab kou dingin mi asol’in, ahunga ahileh lengpa koma sol din agon; ahinla Joab chu Absalom koma ahung tapon ahi. Hichun Joab in mi asol kit’in, ahi vang'in Joab chu ahung deh kit poi.
30 And he says to his servants, “See, the portion of Joab [is] by the side of mine, and he has barley there; go and burn it with fire”; and the servants of Absalom burn the portion with fire.
Chuphat’in aman jong asoh te koma asei in, “Veuvin, Joab lou khu keima lou ban tah ahin, cheuvin lang alou laiya khu mei in gahal vam tauvin,” ati. Hijeh chun Absalom soh ten jong Joab lou chu meiyin agahal vam tao vin ahi.
31 And Joab rises and comes to Absalom in the house, and says to him, “Why have your servants burned the portion that I have with fire?”
Chuphat’in Joab jong akipat doh in Absalom koma achen akoma hitin aseiye, “Ipi dinga nasoh ten kalou meiya ahal vam jeng u hitam?” aga tie.
32 And Absalom says to Joab, “Behold, I sent to you, saying, Come here, and I send you to the king to say, Why have I come in from Geshur? [It was] good for me while I [was] there—and now, let me see the king’s face, and if there is iniquity in me then you have put me to death.”
Hichun Ab’salom jong chun Joab chu adonbut’in, “Vetan, keiman nahenga thu kahin thot jin, ‘Hikoma hungin keiman lengpa koma nasol ing ting, “Ipi ding pen tah a keima hi Geshur gam'a kona hung khoh khoh a kahiya, kei dinga Geshur gam'a umden chu nomjo dinga?” tin aseiye, tia gadoh sah ding kati nahi. Tujengin jong lengpa angsunga neilut sah mong mong in lang keiman themmona kaneiya ahijong leh aman eithat jeng hen,’ ati tia ga sei sah ding kati ahi,” ati.
33 And Joab comes to the king, and declares [it] to him, and he calls to Absalom, and he comes to the king, and bows himself to him, on his face, to the earth, before the king, and the king gives a kiss to Absalom.
Hijeh chun Joab jong lengpa koma achen aga seipeh tan ahileh, hichun lengpan jong Absalom chu akoutai. Chuin Absalom jong lengpa koma ahungin, lengpa angsunga chun abohkhup in amai tol'a asulut in jana apen ahi; chuin lengpan jong Absalom chu achop tai.
