< 1 Samuel 11 >

1 After about a month, Nahash the Ammonite came up and camped against Jabesh Gilead: and all the men of Jabesh said to Nahash, "Make a covenant with us, and we will serve you."
Lhakhat jouvin Ammon mi Nahash lengpa chun Jebesh-gilead khopi dou dingin ahung konin ahi. Chuin Jabesh khoa cheng mijouse chun Nahash jah-a, “Keiho toh kitepna khat sem uhitin chule nasoh kahi diu ahi,” tin atao tauve.
2 And Nahash the Ammonite said to them, "On this condition I will make a covenant with you, that all your right eyes are put out; and I will make it a disgrace on all Israel."
Hichun Nahash in, “Aphai, ahinla aumdan khat sem uhite, Israel pumpi kajumso thei nadia, namit changu jetlam cheh ka kaldoh ding ahi,” ati.
3 The elders of Jabesh said to him, "Give us seven days, that we may send messengers to all the borders of Israel; and then, if there is no one to save us, we will come out to you."
Hichun amahon, “Achutile nisagi nei ngah un, Israel gamsunga mi sol uvinge, eikithopi diu koima ahung louva ahileh naheng uvah lut tau vinge,” tin Jabesh upa hon adonbut tauve.
4 Then the messengers came to Gibeah of Saul, and spoke these words in the ears of the people: and all the people lifted up their voice, and wept.
Thupoho Saul umna Gibeah ahunglhun phat’un, mijouse mitchang kaldoh ding thu ajahdoh phat in khopi sunga mi jouse akapjah jeng tauvin ahi.
5 Look, Saul came following the oxen out of the field; and Saul said, "What ails the people that they weep?" They told him the words of the men of Jabesh.
Hiche pettah’a chu Saul chu louva kona ganchahon nunga hunga ahi, chule khopi ahunglhun phat’in, “Ipi thilsoh uma hitam? Ipi jeh'a mipite hitobang tah’a khu kap-a hiuvem?” tin adong in ahile amahon Jabesh thupole ho thu chu aseipeh tauve.
6 The Spirit of God came mightily on Saul when he heard those words, and his anger was kindled greatly.
Chuin Saul’in chuche thusoh ajah phat’in, Pathen akona lhagao achungah ahung chun, alunghan nachu ahung koujah jeng in ahi.
7 He took a yoke of oxen, and cut them in pieces, and sent them throughout all the borders of Israel by the hand of messengers, saying, "Whoever doesn't come forth after Saul and after Samuel, so shall it be done to his oxen." The dread of the LORD fell on the people, and they came out as one man.
Chuin bongchal ni athat’in, achanbong bongin, Israel gamkai jousea ahom dingin thupole ho asollin, “Samuel le Saul gal’a jui louva galkon lou jouse abongchal jouse hitia hi kichanpan ding ahi!” tin gih na jong aneiyin ahi. Chule Pathen in Saul lunghan chun mijouse akichat sah in, kilungkhat tah in ahung kikhom sohkeijun ahi.
8 He numbered them in Bezek; and the children of Israel were three hundred thousand, and the men of Judah thirty thousand.
Chuin Saul’in Bezek mun’ah akhom khomin ahile Israel a kon mi sang jathum, chule Judah a kon, mi sang somthum akhom doh in ahi.
9 And he said to the messengers who came, "Thus you shall tell the men of Jabesh, 'Tomorrow, by the time the sun is hot, you shall have deliverance.'" The messengers came and told the men of Jabesh; and they were glad.
Saul in thupole ho chu Jabesh-Gilead miho henga, “Jing sunkim le kithopina namu diu ahi!” tin thu ale thot in ahile hiche thusoh ajah phat’un, khopi sungah kipana lentah ahung lhungin ahi.
10 Therefore the men of Jabesh said, "Tomorrow we will come out to you, and you shall do with us all that seems good to you."
Jabesh mihon agal miteho komah “Jing teng naheng uva kahung diu ahin, kachunguva nabol nom chan nabol theiju ahi,” tin aseipeh taovin ahi.
11 It was so on the next day, that Saul put the people in three companies; and they came into the midst of the camp in the morning watch, and struck the Ammonites until the heat of the day: and it happened, that those who remained were scattered, so that no two of them were left together.
Ahin, ajing jingkah matah in Saul ahung lhun’in, asepaite hopthum in ahom khen’in, khovah in amelmate ngahmun adelkhum’un, hiche jingkah sungse chun, Ammon mite athat in, ahingdoh chasun akithen cheh uvin, achang changing ajam mang tauvin ahi.
12 And the people said to Samuel, "Who is it that said Saul should not reign over us? Bring those men so we may put them to death."
Chuin mipiten Samuel jah’a, “Ipijeh’a Saul i-chung uva leng chang ding ham? tia seiho chu hoilai um gam uhi tam? Neipedoh un, that gam uvinge!” tin angeh un ahi.
13 Saul said, "There shall not a man be put to death this day; for today the LORD has worked deliverance in Israel."
Ahin Saul in adonbutin, “Tunia hi mi khatcha kithat lou ding ahi, ajeh chu tuni hi Israel ahuhhing nikho ni ahi,” ati.
14 Then Samuel said to the people, "Come, and let us go to Gilgal, and renew the kingdom there."
Chuin Samuel in mipi jah ah, “Hungun Gilgal ah cheu hitin, ilengpau gaphongdoh kit uhite,” ati.
15 All the people went to Gilgal; and there they made Saul king before the LORD in Gilgal; and there they offered sacrifices of peace offerings before the LORD; and there Saul and all the men of Israel rejoiced greatly.
Chuin mipite jouse chu Gilgal ah acheuvin, Pakai masang ah Saul chu Leng in asem doh tahbeh tauve. Hiti chun Pakai angsung ah chamna, kilhaina thilto gantha abolluvin, Saul jong Israel mite jong hapan akipah sohkei juvin ahi.
