2 Samuel 14
1 And Joab son of Zeruial knows that the heart of the king [is] on Absalom,
Zeruiah capa Joab ni siangpahrang e lungthin teh Absalom koe ao tie a panue.
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 ni Tekoa kho dawk tami a patoun. Haw e napui a lungkaang poung e hah a ma koe a kaw teh, lungkamathout e patetlah na o pouh han. Ro hni hah kâkhu nateh, satui hai kâhluk hanh. Ro koe atueng moikasawlah ka kap e napui patetlah na o pouh han.
3 and you have gone to the king, and spoken to him, according to this word”; and Joab puts the words into her mouth.
Siangpahrang koe na cei vaiteh ahni koe hettelah na dei pouh han telah ati. Hottelah Joab ni a cangkhai teh a pâtu.
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 kho e napui ni siangpahrang koe lawk a dei nah talai dawk minhmai kâbet lah a tabo. Oe siangpahrang na kabawm loe telah a ti.
5 And the king says to her, “What do you [want]?” And she says, “I [am] truly a widow woman, and my husband dies,
Siangpahrang ni napui koevah, bangpatet lae runae maw na tawn telah ati. Napui ni ka vâ a due toe.
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;
Na sannu koe capa kahni touh ao. Hote capa roi teh law vah a kâhmak roi teh katarakung ao hoeh dawkvah, buet touh e ni buet touh e hah a thei.
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.”
A imthungnaw ni na sannu hah a tuk awh. Ka hmaunawngha kathetkung ka thei thai nahan na poe awh haw. Râw kapangkung hai ka thei awh han telah ati. Hottelah tet awh pawiteh, kai dawk ka cawi rae hmaisaan ahnimouh ni a padue awh han doeh. Ka vâ e min thoseh, ca catoun awm laipalah talai dawk hoi koung a thei awh han doeh telah atipouh.
8 And the king says to the woman, “Go to your house, and I give charge concerning you.”
Siangpahrang ni napui koevah, nama im lah cet lawih. Nange kong dawk kai ni ka dei han telah a ti.
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.”
Tekoa kho e napui ni siangpahrang koevah, oe siangpahrang ka bawipa, hete yonnae phu teh, kai hoi apa imthung koe bawt naseh. Siangpahrang hoi a bawitungkhung ni yon phawt hanh naseh telah a ti.
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.”
Siangpahrang ni nange kong dawk yon na ka pen e pueng hi tho sak, a rucatnae bout na poe awh mahoeh toe telah atipouh.
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.”
Napui ni thi ka palawng naw koe kaie ka canaw a thei awh hane ka ngaihri dawkvah, ahnimouh ni a thei hoeh nahan, siangpahrang na BAWIPA Cathut teh, pahnim roeroe hanh naseh. Nahoeh pawiteh, ka capa a thei payon awh han telah ati. Ahni ni BAWIPA a hring e patetlah na capa e samrui buet touh boehai talai dawk bawt mahoeh telah atipouh.
12 And the woman says, “Please let your maidservant speak a word to my lord the king”; and he says, “Speak.”
Hatdawkvah napui ni, na sannu ni ka bawipa siangpahrang koe lawk kam touh bout dei naseh telah ati. Ahni ni dei loe atipouh.
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;
Napui ni hai telah pawiteh, bangkongmaw Cathut e taminaw koe tarannae lahoi hettelah sak hane na kâcai. Siangpahrang ni a hrek e tami bout a kaw hoeh dawkvah, siangpahrang ni yon a pen tinae doeh.
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.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, abuemlahoi he due awh han. Talai dawk tui rabawk e bout duek thai hoeh e patetlah doeh o awh. Cathut teh tami minhmai a khet ei nakunghai, pâlei lah kaawm e tami teh, ama koehoi pou pâlei e lah kaawm e nahoeh.
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,
Hatdawkvah siangpahrang ka bawipa koevah, hete lawk dei hane ka thonae hai tami ka taki dawk doeh. Na sannu ni siangpahrang koevah dei haw khe, ka kâhei e patetlah siangpahrang ni a kuep sak han doeh.
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,
Siangpahrang ni kai hoi ka capa heh Cathut e râw coe hoeh nahanlah thei hanelah kakâcainaw thung hoi na sannu heh na rungngang hanelah na thai pouh han doeh telah ka ti.
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.”
Na sannu ni siangpahrang ka bawipa e lawk teh, hnâroumnae lah awm seh. A thoe hoi hawi kapek nahanelah siangpahrang ka bawipa teh, Cathut e kalvantami patetlah doeh ao. BAWIPA Cathut teh nang koe awm naseh ka ti, telah a ti.
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.”
Siangpahrang ni napui koevah, kai ni na pacei e pueng banghai hrawk hanh telah ati. Napui ni siangpahrang ka bawipa dei yawkaw telah atipouh.
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.
Hot patetlah siangpahrang ni hete kong dawkvah, Joab hai a bawk maw telah ati. Napui ni siangpahrang ka bawipa na hring e patetlah siangpahrang ka bawipa ni a dei tangcoung e teh aranglah thoseh, avoilah thoseh apinihai roun thai mahoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, na san Joab ni na patoun teh hete lawk pueng na sannu na cangkhai e doeh.
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.”
Na dum vaiteh, hettelah kâsak hanelah na san Joab ni a sak e doeh. Ka bawipa teh talai dawk hno kaawm e pueng panuethainae Cathut kalvantami patetlah a lungkaang e doeh telah atipouh.
21 And the king says to Joab, “Now behold, you have done this thing; and go, bring back the young man Absalom.”
Siangpahrang ni Joab koevah, bokheiyah hete lawk kai ni ka dei han. Cet nateh thoundoun Absalom hah thokhai haw telah atipouh.
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.”
Joab teh talai dawk minhmai kâbet lahoi a tabo hnukkhu, siangpahrang koe lunghawi lawk a dei. Joab ni Oe siangpahrang ka bawipa ni, na san ni ka kâhei e patetlah minhmai kahawi na hmaitung vah ka hmu e ka lung a kuep e ka panue telah atipouh.
23 And Joab rises and goes to Geshur, and brings in Absalom to Jerusalem,
Joab teh a thaw teh Geshur kho lah a cei teh, Absalom hah Jerusalem kho lah a thokhai.
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.
Siangpahrang ni a ma im cet naseh, ka mei hmawt hanh naseh telah ati. A dei e patetlah Absalom ni a im lah a cei teh siangpahrang e minhmai hmawt hoeh.
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;
Isarelnaw thung dawk Absalom patetlae a meikahawi, oup e lah kaawm e apihai awm hoeh. Khoktabei koehoi a lû totouh toun kawi buet touh hai awm hoeh.
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.
A sam a ngaw navah, siangpahrang e yawcu dawk a khing navah kum touh dawk shekel 200 touh a pha.
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 ni ca tongpa 3 touh hoi, a canu Tamar a min phung e a tawn. A canu teh a meilam hroung ahawi.
28 And Absalom dwells in Jerusalem [for] two years of days, and he has not seen the face of the king;
Absalom ni siangpahrang e a minhmai hmawt laipalah kum 2 touh thung Jerusalem kho vah ao hnukkhu,
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.
Joab hah siangpahrang koe a patoun hanelah lawk a thui. Hateiteh, thao han ngai hoeh. Apâhni lawk bout a thui, tho han bout ngai hoeh.
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.
A sannaw koevah, khenhaw! Joab e law teh kaie law e a teng ca doeh ao. Catun hah cet awh nateh, hmaisawi pouh awh telah atipouh. Hottelahoi Absalom e a sannaw ni law teh hmai a sawi pouh awh.
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?”
Joab ni Absalom koe a cei teh na sannaw ni kaie law bangkongmaw hmai a sawi awh telah a pacei.
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.”
Absalom ni Joab koevah, bangkongmaw Geshur hoi ka tho. Haw e kho dawk pou kaawm pawiteh kai hane kahawi hane eiteh telah siangpahrang koe na patoun hanelah lawk na thui. Hatdawkvah, atuvah siangpahrang e mei na hmawt sak haw. Kai dawk yonnae awm pawiteh, ahni ni na thet yawkaw naseh, telah a dei pouh.
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.
Joab ni siangpahrang koe a cei teh a dei pouh. Absalom hah a kaw teh siangpahrang koe a cei teh siangpahrang hmalah talai dawk rekkâbet lahoi a lûsaling teh a tabo. Siangpahrang ni Absalom teh a tapam teh a paco
