1 Samuel 17
1 Now the Philistines gathered together their armies to battle; and they were gathered together at Socoh, which belongs to Judah, and camped between Socoh and Azekah, in Ephes Dammim.
Filistinnaw ni taran tuk hane ransanaw a pâkhueng teh Judah ram Sokoh kho dawk a kamkhueng awh teh Sokoh hoi Azekah a rahak Ephesdammin hmuen koe a tungpup awh.
2 Saul and the men of Israel were gathered together, and camped in the Valley of Elah, and set the battle in array against the Philistines.
Sawl hoi Isarelnaw hmuen buet touh koe a kamkhueng awh teh Elah yawn dawk a tungpup awh teh, Filistinnaw tuk hanelah a kâcai awh.
3 The Philistines stood on the mountain on the one side, and Israel stood on the mountain on the other side: and there was a valley between them.
Filistinnaw teh avanglae mon dawk a kangdue awh teh, Isarelnaw teh avanglae mon dawk a kangdue awh, rahak dawkvah a yawn pui ao.
4 There went out a champion out of the camp of the Philistines, named Goliath, of Gath, whose height was six feet eight inches.
Filistin ransa thung dawk hoi, Gath kho e Goliath a min kâphung e a tâco, a rasang e dong taruk touh hoi khap touh a pha.
5 And he had a helmet on his head, and wore bronze scale-armor. And the weight of the bronze armor was five thousand shekels.
Rahumluhuem a kâmuk teh Bahling angki a kho, hote angki teh rahum shekel 5000 tabang a ri.
6 And he had bronze armor on his shins, and a bronze javelin was slung over his shoulders.
A khokrangan dawk rahum a pada teh a loung hoi a loung rahak rahum tahroe a ka va.
7 Now the shaft of his spear was like a weaver's beam, and its blade weighed six hundred iron shekels, and his shield bearer went in front of him.
A tahroecung teh hni kawng kalawng e patetlah. Tahroe hmo teh shekel 600 tabang a ri teh, bahling ka sin e hah a hmalah a cei.
8 He stood and shouted to the armies of Israel, and said to them, "Why have you come out to set your battle in array? Am I not a Philistine, and you servants to Saul? Choose a man for yourselves, and let him come down to me.
A kangdue teh Isarelnaw a hram sin. Bangdawkmaw taran hanelah, na tâco awh. Kai teh Filistin tami buet touh lah ka o. Nangmanaw teh Sawl e a san nahoehmaw, tami buet touh roi awh nateh kai koe tho sak awh.
9 If he is able to fight with me and kill me, then we will be your servants; but if I prevail against him, and kill him, then you will be our servants, and serve us."
Ahni ni kai na tâ pawiteh nangmouh koe san lah ka o awh han. Ahni hah kai ni ka tâ lah ka thet pawiteh, ka san lah na o awh vaiteh kaimae thaw na tawk awh han telah atipouh.
10 The Philistine said, "I defy the armies of Israel this day. Give me a man, that we may fight together."
Filistin tami kai ni sahnin Isarel ransanaw na savek awh. Kai koe tami buet touh patoun awh. Kai hoi kâhmo roi han telah a ti.
11 When Saul and all Israel heard those words of the Philistine, they were dismayed, and greatly afraid.
Sawl hoi Isarelnaw ni hote lawk a thai awh navah, pueng hoi a taki teh a pâyaw awh.
12 Now David was the son of that Ephrathite of Bethlehem in Judah, whose name was Jesse; and he had eight sons. And in the days of Saul the man was old and advanced in years.
Devit teh Judah ram, Bethlehem kho Jesi e capa doeh. Jesi ni capa a tawn e ataroe e doeh. Ahni teh a matawng poung toe.
13 The three eldest sons of Jesse had gone after Saul to the battle. And the names of his sons who went to the battle were Eliab, the firstborn, and Abinadab, the second, and Shimeah, the third.
Jesi e a ca kacuenaw kathum touh teh Sawl e hnuk a kâbang awh. A capa kathum touh taran tuknae koe ka cet e a minnaw teh, kacuepoung e Eliab, apâhni e Abinadab, hoi apâthum e Shammah tinaw doeh.
14 David was the youngest; and the three eldest followed Saul.
Devit teh cahnoung poung e capa doeh. A capa kacue e kathum touh ni Sawl koe a kâbang awh ei,
15 Now David went back and forth from Saul to feed his father's sheep at Bethlehem.
Devit hateh Sawl koehoi Bethlehem kho koe lah a na pa e tu khoumnae koe atu hoi tu a cei.
16 The Philistine drew near morning and evening, and presented himself forty days.
Filistin tami ni amom tangmin ahnimouh koe a hnai pouh teh hnin 40 touh a kamnue pouh.
17 Then Jesse said to David, "Now take for your brothers an ephah of this parched grain, and these ten loaves, and carry them quickly to the camp and give them to your brothers;
Jesi ni a capa Devit koevah atu na hmaunaw hanlah cai ephah buet touh, hete vaiyei 10 touh lat nateh na hmaunaw aonae koe lah karanglah cet haw.
18 and bring these ten cheeses to the captain of their thousand, and see how your brothers are doing, and bring back news."
Maito sanu kamkak e tueng 10 touh hai ransa 1, 000 kaukkung hanlah sin pouh. Na hmaunaw a dam hoi dam hoeh e na khet hnukkhu, ahnimouh koehoi hno buet buet touh sin la atipouh.
19 Now Saul and they and all the men of Israel were in the Valley of Elah, fighting with the Philistines.
Sawl hoi Isarelnaw teh Elah yawn vah ao awh telah a ti.
20 So David arose early in the morning and left the flock with a keeper and took and went, as Jesse had commanded him; and he came to the perimeter of the camp as the army was marching out to its battle formation and shouting the war cry.
Devit amom a thaw teh, tunaw ka khoum hane tami buet touh koe a ceitakhai teh, Jesi ni kâ a poe e patetlah rawca a sin teh a cei. Isarel ransanaw taran tuk han a hramki awh lahun nah tungpup im koe a pha.
21 And Israel and the Philistines lined up in battle formation, army against army.
Isarel ransanaw hoi Filistin ransanaw teh a kâtuk awh hanelah rek a kâhnai awh.
22 And David left his supplies in the care of the attendant, and ran to the army and came and greeted his brothers.
Devit ni hno ka khen hane koe a kut dawk a poe teh ransa aonae koe lah a yawng teh, a hmaunaw hah kut a man.
23 As he talked with them, look, there came up the champion, the Philistine of Gath, Goliath by name, out of the ranks of the Philistines, and spoke according to the same words: and David heard them.
Ahnimouh hoi lawk a kâdei lahun nah Gath kho e Filistin tami Goliath teh Filistin ransanaw e hmalah hoi a tâco teh ouk a dei e patetlah lawk bout a dei e Devit ni a thai.
24 All the men of Israel, when they saw the man, fled from him, and were terrified.
Isarel ransanaw ni a hmu awh navah, a takipoung awh. Ahnie a hmalah hoi a yawng awh.
25 The men of Israel said, "Have you seen this man who has come up? He has surely come up to defy Israel. It shall be, that the man who kills him, the king will enrich him with great riches, and will give him his daughter, and make his father's house exempt in Israel."
Isarelnaw ni ka tâcawt e tami na hmu awh ou, Isarelnaw a savek hanelah a tho toe. Ahni ka thet e teh, siangpahrang ni moikapap e poehno hoi a bawi sak han. Hothloilah, a canu hai a poe han. Ahnie imthungnaw hai a ngai patetlah ao sak han.
26 David spoke to the men who stood by him, saying, "What shall be done to the man who kills this Philistine, and takes away this disgrace from Israel? For who is this uncircumcised Philistine, that he should defy the armies of the living God?"
Devit ni ateng kangdoutnaw koe, hete Filistin tami ka thet niteh, Isarelnaw min mathoenae kahawi sak e tami teh bangtelamaw sak hanelah ao han. Vuensom ka a hoeh e Filistin tami heh bangpatet e tami na maw, ka hring Cathut e ransa ka savek e tami nahoehmaw atipouh.
27 The people answered him in this way, saying, "So shall it be done to the man who kills him."
Tami pueng ni, hete tami ka thet e teh ka dei awh e patetlah sak pouh han telah atipouh awh.
28 Eliab his eldest brother heard when he spoke to the men; and Eliab's anger was kindled against David, and he said, "Why have you come down? With whom have you left those few sheep in the wilderness? I know your insolence and the wickedness of your heart; for you have come down that you might see the battle."
Ahnimouh hoi Devit lawk a kâdei e hah kacuepoung e Eliab ni a thai nah, Devit koe a lung hmatara a khuek. Kahrawng e tu hah apimaw na khoum sak. Na kâoupnae na lung poannae na lungthin ka panue. Kâtuknae khet hane doeh na tho tie ka panue telah a ti.
29 David said, "What have I now done? Is there not a cause?"
Devit ni atu bangmaw ka sak, a lamthung kaawm nahoehmaw telah a ti.
30 Then he turned away from him toward another, and spoke in the same way, and they gave him an answer as before.
Ahni koehoi alouklah a kangvawi takhai teh, ouk a dei patetlah bout a dei pouh.
31 When the words that David spoke were overheard, they repeated them before Saul; and he sent for him.
Devit ni a dei e lawk a thai awh teh, Sawl e hmalah a dei pouh awh nah, Devit hah a kaw.
32 David said to Saul, "Let not my lord's heart fail because of him. Your servant will go and fight with this Philistine."
Devit ni Sawl koe ahni kecu dawk buet touh hai na lungpout sak hanh awh. Na san kai ni ka cei vaiteh hote Filistin tami ka tuk han telah a dei pouh.
33 Saul said to David, "You are not able to go against this Philistine to fight with him; for you are but a youth, and he a man of war from his youth."
Sawl ni hote Filistin tami na tuk thai hane kawi lah awm hoeh. Nang teh na naw rah, ahni teh a nawca hoi tarantuk ka thoum e doeh telah Devit koe a dei pouh navah,
34 David said to Saul, "Your servant was keeping his father's sheep; and when a lion or a bear came, and took a lamb out of the flock,
Devit ni Sawl koe tunaw na san kai ni ka khoum nah, sendek thoseh, tavom thoseh, a tho navah, tuhu dawk e tu a la navah,
35 I went out after him, and struck him, and rescued it out of his mouth. When he arose against me, I caught him by his beard, and struck him, and killed him.
Ka pâlei teh a pahni dawk e ka lawp, hahoi na cusin navah, a pâkhamuen dawk ka man pouh teh ka thei.
36 Your servant struck both the lion and the bear, and this uncircumcised Philistine shall be as one of them. Should I not go and smite him, and remove this day a disgrace from Israel? For who is this uncircumcised one, since he has defied the armies of the living God?
Sendek hoi Tavom na san kai ni ka thei na maw, Cathut e ransanaw ka savek vuensom ka a hoeh e Filistin tami hai hote buet buet touh e patetlah han doeh atipouh.
37 Jehovah who delivered me out of the paw of the lion, and out of the paw of the bear, he will deliver me out of the hand of this Philistine." Saul said to David, "Go; and Jehovah shall be with you."
Sendek kut hoi tavom kut dawk hoi thoseh, kai na ka rungngang e BAWIPA ni hote Filistin kut dawk hoi hai na rungngang han doeh telah Devit ni bout a dei navah cet leih, Cathut teh nang hoi rei awm naseh telah Devit koe atipouh.
38 And he dressed David in a uniform with a bronze helmet on his head, and he clothed him with a coat of armor.
Sawl ni amae a puengcang a kho sak teh, a lû dawk rahumluhuem a kâmuk hnukkhu saiphei a kho sak.
39 And David strapped on his sword over his uniform, and after he had tried once or twice to walk, then David said to Saul, "I can't walk with these, for I am not used to them." So they took them off him.
Devit ni a angki van Sawl e tahloi a kava teh a cei bo teh, ouk a khohna boihoeh dawkvah, Sawl koe Devit ni ka cet thai mahoeh telah atipouh. Devit ni hot naw be a rading pouh.
40 Then he took his staff in his hand and chose for himself five smooth stones from the wadi, and put them in the shepherd's bag, in the pouch. And his sling was in his hand, and he approached the Philistine.
Amae sonron hah a kut hoi a sin teh palang dawk e talung kâpica e 5 touh a rawi. Tu khoumnae koe a sin e yawngya dawk a pâseng. A kut dawk tâyai hoi Filistin tami teh a pâtam.
41 So the Philistine moved forward and came near to David, and his shield-bearer was in front of him.
Filistin tami ni a tho teh Devit koe lah rek a hnai. Ahnie hmalah bahling ka sin e hai ao.
42 When the Philistine looked and saw David, he despised him, for he was but a youth, and ruddy, and handsome in appearance.
Filistin tami ni a khet navah, Devit a hmu teh sam palingvuek, a mei a hawi teh khet ahawi, camo lah ao dawk banglahai noutna hoeh.
43 The Philistine said to David, "Am I a dog, that you come to me with a stick and stones?" And David said, "No, worse than a dog." And the Philistine cursed David by his gods.
Hote Filistin tami ni, Devit koe kai ui lah maw ka tho teh, bongpai hoi khuet na tho sin vaw atipouh teh, Filistin tami ni a cathut noe lahoi Devit thoe a bo.
44 The Philistine said to David, "Come to me, and I will give your flesh to the birds of the sky, and to the animals of the field."
Devit koevah kai koe tho haw, na moi hah kalvan e tava hoi kahrawng sarangnaw koe ka poe han telah bout a ti.
45 Then David said to the Philistine, "You come to me with a sword, and with a spear, and with a javelin: but I come to you in the name of Jehovah of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defied.
Devit ni Filistin tami hanelah, kai koevah tahloi, tahroeca, tahroepui, hoi na tho, kai teh nang ni na savek e Isarel ransabawi Cathut, ransabawi Jehovah min hoi doeh nang koe ka tho.
46 Today, Jehovah will deliver you into my hand; and I will strike you, and take your head from off you. And I will give your corpse and the corpses of the Philistine army this very day to the birds of the air, and to the wild animals of the earth; that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel,
Cathut ni sahnin nang hah teh kaie kut dawk na poe e lah ao vaiteh, nang hah kai ni na thei hnukkhu na lû tâtueng han. Hahoi Filistin ransanaw e ro hah kalvan e tava hoi talai dawk e moithangnaw ka poe han. Isarelnaw koe Cathut ao tie talai van pueng ka panue sak han.
47 and that all this assembly may know that Jehovah doesn't save with sword and spear: for the battle is Jehovah's, and he will give you into our hand."
Hete tamihunaw ni hai BAWIPA ni tahloi hoi tahroe hoi na rungngang hoeh tie a panue awh han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, tarantuknae teh BAWIPA e doeh. Ama ni nangmanaw teh kaimae kut dawk na poe han telah a ti.
48 It happened, when the Philistine arose, and came and drew near to meet David, that David hurried, and ran toward the army to meet the Philistine.
Filistin tami teh a tho teh, Devit kâhmo hane rek a hnai nah, Devit ni Filistin tami kâhmo hane karanglah a yawng.
49 David put his hand in his bag, took a stone, and slung it, and struck the Philistine in his forehead; and the stone sank into his forehead, and he fell on his face to the ground.
Devit ni a yawngya thung a tapu teh, athung e talung buet touh a rasa hnukkhu tâyai hoi a yai teh, Filistin tami e tampa dawk a yai pouh. A tampa hlut ati teh talai dawk pakhup lah rawk a tabo.
50 So David prevailed over the Philistine with a sling and with a stone, and struck the Philistine, and killed him; but there was no sword in the hand of David.
Hottelah, Devit ni tâyai hoi talung buet touh hoi hote Filistin tami a tâ teh a thei, a kut dawk tahloi sin hoeh.
51 Then David ran and stood beside him, and took his sword and drew it out of its sheath and killed him, and cut off his head with it. When the Philistines saw that their champion was dead, they fled.
Devit ni a yawng sin teh, Filistin tami van a kangdue teh, ahnie tahloi tabu dawk e tahloi a rayu teh, a lahuen mon a tâtueng pouh. Filistinnaw ni a thakaawmpounge a due e a hmu awh torei teh, koung a yawng awh.
52 The men of Israel and of Judah arose, and shouted, and pursued them as far as Gath, and to the gates of Ekron. The wounded of the Philistines fell down by the way to Shaaraim, even to Gath, and to Ekron.
Isarel hoi Judah ransanaw a thaw awh teh, hram laihoi ayawn apout ditouh thoseh, Ekron longkha totouh thoseh, a pâlei awh. Hahoi Filistin tami thung dawk e a hmâ kacatnaw teh Shaaraim lam koehoi Gath hoi Ekron totouh a kamlei awh.
53 The children of Israel returned from chasing after the Philistines, and they plundered their camp.
Isarelnaw teh Filistinnaw pâleinae koehoi bout a ban awh teh, ahnimae pupimnaw be a raphoe pouh awh.
54 David took the head of the Philistine, and brought it to Jerusalem; but he put his armor in his tent.
Devit ni Filistin tami e a lû hah a la teh, Jerusalem kho totouh a sin. A puengcangnaw teh a rim dawk a hruek pouh.
55 When Saul saw David go out to meet the Philistine, he said to Abner, the commander of the army, "Whose son is that boy?" And Abner said, "As your soul lives, O king, I don't know."
Sawl ni Filistin tami tuk hanelah Devit a cei e a hmu navah, ransanaw kaukkung Abner koe, Abner hete nawsai heh apie capa maw telah a pacei. Abner ni oe siangpahrang na hring e patetlah kai ni ka panuek hoeh telah a ti.
56 The king said, "Inquire whose son that young man is."
Hottelah Siangpahrang ni hete camo heh api capa maw pacei haw, telah atipouh.
57 As David returned from the slaughter of the Philistine, Abner took him, and brought him before Saul with the head of the Philistine in his hand.
Hote Filistin tami a theinae koehoi Devit a tho nah Abner ni ahni hah a kaw teh, Sawl koe a ceikhai. Filistin tami e a lû a kut dawk a sin.
58 Saul said to him, "Whose son are you, young man?" David answered, "I am the son of your servant Jesse the Bethlehemite."
Sawl ni ahni koe thoundoun nang apie capa maw telah a pacei. Devit ni Bethlehem kho e na san Jesi capa telah a ti.
