1 Samuel 22
1 David therefore departed there, and escaped to the cave of Adullam. When his brothers and his father's house heard it, they went down there to him.
David loe Gath hoiah caeh moe, loih pacoengah Adullam thlungkhaw ah phak; to tamthang to angmah ih nawkamyanawk hoi ampa ih imthung takohnawk boih mah thaih o naah, anih ohhaih ahmuen ah caeh o.
2 Everyone who was in distress, and everyone who was in debt, and everyone who was discontented, gathered themselves to him; and he became captain over them: and there were with him about four hundred men.
Palungboeng kaminawk, laiba tawn kaminawk hoi poeknawm thai ai kaminawk boih, anih khaeah nawnto amkhueng o; David loe nihcae zaehoikung ah oh; anih hoi nawnto kaom kami cumvai palito oh o.
3 David went there to Mizpeh of Moab, and he said to the king of Moab, "Please let my father and my mother stay with you, until I know what God will do for me."
David loe to ahmuen hoiah Moab prae thung ih Mizpah vangpui ah caeh moe, Moab siangpahrang khaeah, Sithaw mah kai han timaw na sah pae tih, tiah panoek ai karoek to, kamno hoi kampa angzo hoi nasoe loe, nang khaeah om raeh nasoe, tiah tahmenhaih a hnik.
4 He brought them before the king of Moab; and they lived with him all the while that David was in the stronghold.
To pongah David misa anghawkhaih thlungkhaw thungah oh nathung, anih ih amno hoi ampanawk loe Moab siangpahrang khaeah oh o.
5 The prophet Gad said to David, "Do not stay in the stronghold. Depart, and go into the land of Judah." Then David departed, and came into the forest of Hereth.
Toe tahmaa Gad mah David khaeah, Thlungkhaw thungah om hmah, Judah prae thungah cae ah, tiah a thuih pae. To pongah David loe caeh moe, Hareth taw thungah oh.
6 Saul heard that David had been discovered, and the men who were with him. Now Saul was in Gibeah, sitting under the tamarisk tree at the high place, with his spear in his hand, and all his servants were standing about him.
(Saul loe angmah ih tayae to Gibeah vangpui mae nuiah sinh, a tamnanawk mah anih to takui o moe, hmaica thing tahlip ah nawnto anghnut o naah, ) David hoi angmah ih kaminawk angqum o boeh, tiah Saul mah thaih;
7 And he said to them, "Hear now, you Benjamites. Will the son of Jesse give everyone of you fields and vineyards, will he make you all captains of thousands and captains of hundreds,
Saul mah a taengah kangdoe tamnanawk khaeah, Benjamin kaminawk, tahngai oh! Jesse capa mah nangcae hanah lawk hoi misur takha to na paek o ueloe, misatuh kami sangto ukkung angraeng hoi misatuh kami cumvaito ukkung angraeng ah na suem o tang tih maw?
8 that all of you have conspired against me, and there is none who discloses to me when my son makes a covenant with the son of Jesse, and there is none of you who is sorry for me, or discloses to me that my son has stirred up my servant against me, to lie in wait, as at this day?"
Nangcae boih mah ka nuiah kasae sak hanah nang pacaeng o, ka capa loe Jesse capa hoiah lokkamhaih sak, tiah mi mah doeh nang thui o ai; mi mah doeh kai palung nang sae o haih ai; ka tamna mah vaihniah sak ih baktih toengah, ka capa mah kai to angang moe, hum hanah, ka tamnanawk pahruek ih hmuen kawng doeh nang thui o ai, tiah a naa.
9 Then Doeg the Edomite, who stood by the servants of Saul, answered and said, "I saw the son of Jesse coming to Nob, to Ahimelech the son of Ahitub.
To paceongah Saul ih tamnanawk thung ih Edom kami maeto ah kaom, Dog mah Jesse capa loe Nob vangpui ah kaom, Ahitub capa Ahimelek khaeah angzoh naah ka hnuk.
10 He inquired of God for him, gave him food, and gave him the sword of Goliath the Philistine."
Ahimelek mah anih hanah Angraeng khaeah lokdueng pae; caaknaek doeh a paek moe, Philistin kami Goliath ih sumsen doeh a paek, tiah a thuih pae.
11 Then the king sent to call Ahimelech, the son of Ahitub, and all his father's house, the priests who were in Nob: and they came all of them to the king.
To pongah siangpahrang mah kami to patoeh moe, Ahitub capa qaima Ahimelek hoi ampa imthung takoh boih, Nob vangpui ih qaimanawk to kawksak boih; nihcae boih siangpahrang khaeah angzoh o.
12 Saul said, "Hear now, you son of Ahitub." He answered, "Here I am, my lord."
Saul mah, Ahitub capa vaihi lok tahngai ah, tiah a naa. Anih mah, Ka angraeng, hae ah ka oh, tiah a naa.
13 Saul said to him, "Why have you conspired against me, you and the son of Jesse, in that you have given him bread, and a sword, and have inquired of God for him, that he should rise against me, to lie in wait, as at this day?"
Saul mah anih khaeah, Tipongah Jesse capa hoiah kai tuk hanah nam sak hoi moe, vaihniah a sak ih baktih toengah, kai tuk hanah anih to takaw hoi sumsen na paek pacoengah, Sithaw khaeah lok na dueng pae loe? tiah a naa.
14 Then Ahimelech answered the king, and said, "Who among all your servants is so faithful as David, who is the king's son-in-law, and a commander over your bodyguard, and honored in your house?
Ahimelek mah siangpahrang khaeah, Siangpahrang canu ih sava, na toksah kami, na imthung takoh ah khingya koi kaom, David baktih oepthok mi maw na tamnanawk thungah kaom?
15 Have I today begun to inquire of God for him? Be it far from me. Do not let the king impute anything to his servant, nor to all the house of my father; for your servant knows nothing of all this, less or more."
To na niah maw anih han Sithaw khaeah lok ka dueng pae tangsuek? To tih na ai ni; siangpahrang mah a tamna hoi ampa imtung takoh nuiah zaehaih net hmah nasoe, hae hmuen kawng pongah na tamna mah panoekhaih tidoeh om ai, tiah a naa.
16 The king said, "You shall surely die, Ahimelech, you, and all your father's house."
Toe siangpahrang mah, Ahimelek, nangmah hoi nam pa imthung takoh boih, na duek o han oh, tiah a naa.
17 The king said to the guard who stood about him, "Turn, and kill the priests of the LORD; because their hand also is with David, and because they knew that he fled, and did not disclose it to me." But the servants of the king wouldn't put forth their hand to fall on the priests of the LORD.
Angraeng ih qaimanawk loe David khaeah athum o, anih loe cawnh ving boeh, tiah panoek o, toe kai na thai o sak ai pongah, Angqoi oh loe, nihcae to hum oh, tiah siangpahrang mah angmah khaeah kaom khok hoi misatuh kaminawk khaeah a thuih pae. Toe siangpahrang ih tamnanawk mah Angraeng ih qaimanawk hum hanih ban phok han koeh o ai.
18 The king said to Doeg, "Turn and attack the priests." Doeg the Edomite turned, and he attacked the priests, and he killed on that day eighty-five people who wore a linen ephod.
To naah siangpahrang mah Dog khaeah, Angqoih loe, nang mah qaimanawk hae hum ah, tiah a naa. To pongah Edom acaeng Dog mah, qaimanawk to hum boih: to na niah anih mah puu ngan khukbuen angkhuk kami quitazet, pangato a hum.
19 He struck Nob, the city of the priests, with the edge of the sword, both men and women, children and nursing babies, and cattle and donkeys and sheep.
To pacoengah qaimanawk ih vangpui Nob to sumsen hoiah a tuk, nongpa hoi nongpatanawk, nawkdi hoi tahnu nae li nawktanawk, maitawnawk, hrangnawk hoi tuunawk to sumsen hoiah a hum.
20 One of the sons of Ahimelech, the son of Ahitub, named Abiathar, escaped, and fled after David.
Toe Ahitub capa Ahimelek, Ahimelek capa Abiathar loe loih moe, David hnukah cawnh.
21 Abiathar told David that Saul had slain the LORD's priests.
Angraeng ih qaimanawk loe Saul mah hum boih boeh, tiah David khaeah thuih pae.
22 Then David said to Abiathar, "I knew on that day that Doeg the Edomite would surely tell Saul. I am responsible for all the lives of your father's house.
To naah David mah, Edom acaeng Dog mah Saul khaeah thui pae tih, tiah anih ka hnuk na niah ka poek roe boeh. Nampa imthung takoh boih duek hanah ka sak pazae moeng boeh.
23 Stay with me, do not be afraid; for he who seeks my life seeks your life. For with me you shall be in safeguard."
Zii hmah; kai hoi nawnto om ah; na hinghaih pakrong kami loe, ka hinghaih pakrong kami ah ni oh; toe kai hoi nawnto na oh nahaeloe na ngan cuem tih, tiah a naa.
