2 Samuel 11
1 It happened, at the return of the year, at the time when kings go out, that David sent Joab, and his servants with him, and all Israel; and they destroyed the people of Ammon, and besieged Rabbah. But David stayed at Jerusalem.
Kum a thok tih manghai a thoh tue vaengah David loh Joab neh a taengkah a sal rhoek, Israel pum te a tueih tih Ammon ca rhoek te a thup. Te vaengah Rabbah khaw a dum uh dae David tah Jerusalem ah om.
2 Now it happened one evening that David got up from his bed and walked on the roof of the king's palace; and he saw a woman bathing, and the woman was very beautiful.
Kholaeh tue a pha vaengah David tah a thingkong lamloh thoo tih manghai im kah imphu ah cet. Te vaengah huta pakhat tui a hluk te imphu lamloh a hmuh. Tekah huta te a mueimae bahoeng then.
3 And David sent and inquired about the woman. And one said, "Isn't this Bathsheba, the daughter of Eliam, the wife of Uriah the Hethite?"
David loh hlang a tueih tih huta te a cae vaengah tah, “Eliam nu Bathsheba pawt nim ke, Khitti Uriah yuu la ke,” a ti nah.
4 So David sent messengers to get her, and she came in to him, and he lay with her. (For she had been purifying herself from her uncleanness.) And she returned to her house.
Te dongah David loh puencawn a tueih tih anih te a loh phai. Te phoeiah amah taengla ha pawk vaengah huta te vik a yalh puei. Te phoeiah huta loh a tihnai lamloh a ciim tih amah im la mael.
5 The woman conceived; and she sent and told David, and said, "I'm pregnant."
Tedae huta te a vawn vaengah ol a tah tih David taengla puen. Te vaengah kai ka vawn coeng,” a ti nah.
6 Then David sent to Joab and said, "Send me Uriah the Hethite." So Joab sent Uriah to him.
Te dongah David loh Joab taengah ol a tah tih, “Khitti Uriah te kai taengla han tueih,” a ti nah vanbangla Joab loh Uriah te David taengla a tueih.
7 And Uriah came to him, and David asked about the prosperity of Joab, and of the prosperity of the people, and of the prosperity of the war. And he said, "Its well."
A taengla Uriah a pawk vaengah David loh Joab kah sading kawng, pilnam kah sading kawng, caem kah sading kawng te a dawt.
8 And David said to Uriah, "Go down to your house, and wash your feet." So Uriah went out from the presence of the king, and a gift from the king was sent after him.
Te phoeiah David loh Uriah te, “Na im te suntla lamtah na kho yuut laeh,” a ti nah. Te vanbangla manghai im lamloh Uriah a nong neh a hnukah manghai kah buham loh a vai.
9 But Uriah slept at the king's door with his master's servants, and did not go down to his house.
Tedae Uriah tah a boei rhoek kah sal tom neh manghai im kah thohka ah yalh tih amah im la suntla pawh.
10 And it was reported to David, saying, "Uriah did not go down to his house." So David said to Uriah, "Haven't you come from a journey? Why did you not go down to your house?"
Te vaengah David taengla puen uh tih, “Uriah te amah im la a suntlak moenih,” a ti nauh. Te dongah David loh Uriah te, “Yiin lamkah na pawk moenih a? Balae tih na im te na paan pawh,” a ti nah.
11 And Uriah said to David, "The ark and Israel and Judah are staying in tents; and my lord Joab and the servants of my lord are camped in the open field. Then how can I go to my house to eat and to drink and to lie with my wife? As the LORD lives, and as you live, I will not do this thing."
Uriah loh David taengah, “Thingkawng khaw, Israel neh Judah khaw, dungtlungim ah aka om khaw, ka boeipa Joab neh ka boeipa kah a sal rhoek khaw, khohmuen hoeng ah rhaeh uh. Te vaengah kai loh kamah im ah caak ham neh ok hamla, ka yuu taengah yalh hamla, ka cet aya? Na hingnah neh na hinglu kah hingnah dongah hekah olka he tah ka rhoi mahpawh,” a ti nah.
12 Then David said to Uriah, "Stay here today also, and tomorrow I will let you depart." So Uriah stayed in Jerusalem that day.
David loh Uriah te, “Hnin at khaw he ah om dae lamtah thangvuen ah kan tueih eh?,” a ti nah. Te dongah Uriah khaw tekah khohnin neh a vuen ah tah Jerusalem ah kho a sak.
13 And the next day David summoned him, and he ate and drank in his presence, and he became drunk. But in the evening he went out and lay on a bed with his master's servants, and did not go down to his house.
Te phoeiah anih te David loh a khue. A mikhmuh ah buh a cah tih a rhuihmil la a ok sak. Tedae kholaeh ah tah cet tih a boei kah sal rhoek taengah amah kah thingkong dongah yalh. Te dongah amah im te paan pawh.
14 It happened in the morning, that David wrote a letter to Joab, and sent it by the hand of Uriah.
Mincang a pha vaengah David loh Joab ham caa a daek pah tih Uriah kut ah a pat.
15 He wrote in the letter, saying, "Send Uriah to the forefront of the hottest battle, and retreat from him, that he may be struck down and die."
Ca dongah a daek pah tih, “Uriah te caemtloek tlungluen hmai ah khueh lamtah a hnuk lamloh mael tak, te vaengah ngawn uh saeh lamtah duek saeh,” a ti nah.
16 It happened, when Joab kept watch on the city, that he assigned Uriah to the place where he knew that valiant men were.
Joab loh khopuei te a om thil tih a dawn vaengah tatthai hlang rhoek om nah te a ming. Te dongah te hmuen ah te Uriah a khueh.
17 The men of the city went out, and fought with Joab. Some of the people fell, even of the servants of David; and Uriah the Hethite died also.
Khopuei hlang rhoek ha pawk uh tih Joab te a vathoh hatah David sal lamkah pilnam te cungku tih Khitti Uriah khaw duek.
18 Then Joab sent and told David all the things concerning the war;
Te phoeiah Joab loh hlang a tueih tih caemtloek vaengkah olka boeih te David taengla a yaak sak.
19 and he commanded the messenger, saying, "When you have finished telling all the things concerning the war to the king,
Puencawn te a uen tih, “Caemtloek vaengkah olka boeih manghai taengah thui pah ham te na khah vaengah,
20 if it happens that he becomes angry,
manghai kah a kosi te phuet tih namah te, “Vathoh ham te balae tih khopuei la na thoeih? Vongtung dong lamloh ng'kah ni tila na ming uh moenih a?
21 then you are to say, 'Your servant Uriah the Hethite is dead also.'"
Jerubbesheth capa Abimelek aka ngawn te unim? Vongtung dong lamkah sumngol phaklung neh anih aka dae te huta moenih a? Te dongah ni anih te Thebez ah a duek. Balae tih vongtung la na thoeih uh,’ a ti mai ni. Te vaengah, 'Na sal Khitti Uriah khaw duek coeng,’ ti nah,” a ti nah.
22 So the messenger of Joab went to the king in Jerusalem and reported to David everything that Joab had told him.
Te dongah puencawn te cet tih a pha vaengah Joab loh anih a tueih te David taengah boeih a thui pah.
23 The messenger said to David, "The men overpowered us, and came out to us into the field, and when we drove them back to the entrance of the gate,
Te vaengah puencawn loh David taengah, “Kaimih te hlang loh ng'et tih khohmuen ah kaimih taengla ha thoeng uh. Tedae amih te vongka thohka ah ka mah uh.
24 then the arrows came down heavily on your servants from the wall, and some eighteen men of the king's servants died." And the messenger finished the words to the king about the report of the battle. Then David was very angry with Joab, and said to the messenger, "Why did you go so close to the city to fight? Didn't you know you would be struck from the wall? Who struck Abimelech the son of Jerubbaal? Didn't a woman cast an upper millstone on him from the wall so that he died at Thebez? Why did you go so near to the wall?" [Then the messenger said to the king, ] "Also your servant Uriah the Hethite is dead."
A kah uh thae vaengah na sal rhoek te vongtung dong lamkah lipom loh a kah, a kah tih manghai kah sal rhoek te duek. Te vaengah na sal Khitti Uriah khaw duek,” a ti nah.
25 Then David said to the messenger, "Thus you shall tell Joab, 'Do not let this thing displease you, for the sword devours one as well as another. Make your battle stronger against the city, and overthrow it.' And encourage him."
David loh puencawn te, “Joab taengah thui pah, tahae kah olka he na mik ah lolh sak boeh, khat khat ngawn tah cunghang loh a yoop rhuem, na caemtloek neh khopuei te namning thil lamtah koengloeng laeh,” a ti nah tih anih te a thaphoh.
26 When the wife of Uriah heard that Uriah her husband was dead, she made lamentation for her husband.
Uriah kah a yuu loh a va Uriah a duek te a yaak vaengah a boei te a rhaengsae.
27 When the mourning was past, David sent and took her home to his house, and she became his wife, and bore him a son. But the thing that David had done displeased the LORD.
Nguekcoinah te a poeng vaengah David loh a tah tih amah im la a det. Te dongah anih yuu la pahoi om tih ca tongpa a cun pah. Tedae David loh BOEIPA kah mikhmuh ah a saii te khoboe thae ni a huet.
