< 2 Samuel 16 >

1 Now when David was a little past the top, look, Ziba the servant of Mippibaal met him with a couple of donkeys saddled, and on them two hundred loaves of bread, a hundred bunches of raisins, a hundred of summer fruits, and a container of wine.
Devit ni monsom kuet a tapoung navah, Mephibosheth e a san Ziba ni a dawn nahan la kahni touh a rakueng. Vaiyei tueng 200, misur bom ka ke e 100, thaibunglung paw 100, touh hoi misur um buet touh la dawk a phu sak.
2 And the king said to Ziba, "Why did you bring these things?" And Ziba replied, "The donkeys are for the king's household to ride on, and the bread and summer fruit for the young men to eat, and the wine is for those who get exhausted in the desert."
Siangpahrang ni Ziba koevah, bangtelah na sak hane maw hete hno heh na sin atipouh. Ziba ni la heh siangpahrang imthung a kâcui nahane, vaiyei hoi a pawnaw teh thoundounnaw ni a ca hane, misurtui hai kahrawngum a tha katawnnaw ni a nei hane doeh telah atipouh.
3 Then the king said, "Where is your master's son?" Ziba said to the king, "Look, he is staying in Jerusalem, for he said, 'Today the children of Israel will restore to me the kingdom of my father.'"
Siangpahrang ni na bawipa e capa hah namaw ao telah a pacei. Ziba ni Jerusalem kho dawk ao. Sahnin vah Isarelnaw ni apa e uknae hah na poe han telah ati doeh na a telah atipouh.
4 Then the king said to Ziba, "Look, all that pertains to Mippibaal is yours." Ziba said, "I humbly bow. May I find favor in the sight of my lord the king."
Siangpahrang ni Ziba koe vah Mephibosheth ni a tawn e hno pueng nange lah ao toe telah atipouh. Ziba ni na hmalah kârahnoum laihoi ka tho. Oe siangpahrang ka bawipa, na minhmai kahawi ka hmu thai nahan pou kâyawm han telah atipouh.
5 And when king David reached Bahurim, now look, a man of the family of the house of Saul came out, whose name was Shimei the son of Gera. He came out and cursed continuously as he approached.
Devit siangpahrang teh Bahurim kho a pha toteh, Sawl imthung Gera capa a min Shimei teh thoebo laihoi a tho.
6 And he threw stones at David and at all his servants, and all the people and all the soldiers at his right hand and at his left.
Devit hoi siangpahrang e a sannaw hah talung hoi a dêi awh. Taminaw hoi athakaawme taminaw teh avoilah aranglah ao awh.
7 And Shimei said as he cursed, "Get out, get out, you man of blood, and worthless man.
Shimei ni thoebo nalaihoi cet leih khe, cet leih khe, nange thi ka palawng e hoi tamikayon,
8 Jehovah has returned on you all the blood of the house of Saul, in whose place you have reigned, and Jehovah has given the kingdom into the hand of your son Absalom. And look, your evil is upon you, because you are a man of bloodshed."
Sawl e a uknae a la teh, Sawl imthung e a thi paling nange na lû dawk BAWIPA ni a pha sak teh, a uknaeram teh na capa Absalom a poe toe. Thi ka palawng e lah na o dawkvah, namahoima runae na kâpoe e doeh telah atipouh.
9 Then Abishai the son of Zeruiah said to the king, "Why should this dead dog curse my lord the king? Please let me go over and take off his head."
Zeruiah capa Abishai ni siangpahrang koevah, bangkongmaw ui ro ni ka bawipa thoe a bo. A lû ka tâtueng pouh han telah atipouh.
10 The king said, "What have I to do with you, you sons of Zeruiah? Because he curses, and because Jehovah has said to him, 'Curse David;' who then shall say, 'Why have you done so?'"
Siangpahrang ni nangmouh Zeruiah capanaw, nangmanaw hoi kai teh bangpuibangpa nahoeh. BAWIPA ni Devit hah thoebo lah awmseh, telah ahni koe lawk thui pawiteh thoebo yawkaw naseh. Hatdawkvah, bangkongmaw hettelah na sak telah apinihai tet pouh mahoeh toe.
11 Then David said to Abishai and to all his servants, "Look, my son who came from my body seeks my life. So also now this Benjamite. Leave him alone and let him curse, for Jehovah has told him to.
Devit ni Abishai hoi a sannaw koe, ka thung hoi ka tâcawt e ka capa ni, thei hanelah na noung pawiteh, Benjamin miphunnaw ni hothlak thei han na noung han doeh. Bangtelah hai tet awh hanh. Thoe na bo yawkaw naseh. BAWIPA ni a sak sak e doeh.
12 Perhaps Jehovah will look on my affliction and return good to me for his cursing today."
BAWIPA ni ka rucatnae a hmu vaiteh, ahni ni thoe na bo e heh ahawinae koe lahoi BAWIPA ni na pathung e lahai ao han telah Abishai hoi a sannaw koe a dei pouh.
13 So David and his men went by the way; and Shimei went along on the hillside opposite him, and cursed as he went, threw stones at his flank, and threw dirt.
Devit hoi a taminaw teh lam dawk a cei awh lahun navah, Shimei teh Devit hoi phekkadangka lah mon langboung a cei teh, thoebo nalaihoi talung hoi a dei teh, vaiphu a kahei sin.
14 Now the king and all his people arrived weary at the Jordan, and he refreshed himself there.
Siangpahrang hoi a hnukkâbangnaw teh a tawn poung awh. Jordan tui koe a pha awh teh a kâhat awh.
15 Now Absalom and all the men of Israel arrived in Jerusalem, and Ahithophel was with him.
Absalom hoi a taminaw pueng Jerusalem kho a pha awh teh, ahni koe Ahithophel hah ao.
16 And it came about when David's friend Hushai the Archite came to Absalom, that Hushai said to Absalom, "Long live the king. Long live the king."
Devit e a hui Arki tami Hushai teh Absalom koe a pha toteh, Hushai ni Absalom koevah, siangpahrang na hring saw naseh, siangpahrang na hring saw naseh telah yawhawinae a poe.
17 So Absalom said to Hushai, "Is this your loyalty to your friend? Why did you not go with your friend?"
Absalom ni Hushai koevah, hettelamaw na hui na lungpataw, bangkongmaw na hui koe na cei hoeh telah ati.
18 Then Hushai said to Absalom, "No, but whom Jehovah and this people and all the men of Israel have chosen, his will I belong, and with him I will stay.
Hushai ni Absalom koevah, ka cet mahoeh, Cathut ama hoi ahnimouh Isarelnaw ni a rawi awh e koe a san lah ka o han, ahni koe ka o han atipouh.
19 Again, whom should I serve? Shouldn't I serve in the presence of his son? As I have served in your father's presence, so will I be in your presence."
Apie thaw maw ka tawk han. A capa koe thaw ka tawk han nahoehmaw. Na pa e hmalah thaw ka tawk e patetlah nange hmalah ka tawk han telah atipouh.
20 Then Absalom said to Ahithophel, "Give your counsel. What should we do?"
Absalom ni Ahithophel koe bangtelamaw ka sak han, pouknae na poe haw telah atipouh.
21 Ahithophel said to Absalom, "Go in to your father's secondary wives, that he has left to care for the palace. Then all Israel will hear that you have made yourself a stench to your father. Then those on your side will be motivated to support you."
Ahithophel ni na pa e a yudo im karingkungnaw a ta e naw koe kâen sin. Isarelnaw ni na pa ni na maithoe tie panuek awh vaiteh, nang koe kaawm e naw e kut teh a tha a sai awh han atipouh.
22 So they set up a tent for Absalom on the roof, and Absalom went in to his father's secondary wives in the sight of all Israel.
Hottelah imvan vah Absalom hanelah rim a sak pouh awh. Hottelah Isarelnaw e a hmaitung vah, a na pa e yudonaw koe a kâen.
23 Now in those days the counsel that Ahithophel gave was as if one inquired of the word of God. So was all the counsel of Ahithophel both to David and to Absalom.
Hatnae tueng nah Ahithophel ni pouknae a poe e teh, Cathut lawk patetlah ouk pouk pouh e lah ao. Hot patetlah Ahithophel ni Devit hoi Absalom pouknae a poe e pueng teh, pouk pouh e lah ao.
