2 Samuel 12
1 So the LORD sent Nathan to David. And he came to him, and said to him, "Tell me how you judge this case. There were two men in a certain city, the one rich and the other poor.
BOEIPA loh Nathan te David taengla a tueih tih a taeng a pha vaengah David te, “Kho pakhat ah hlang panit om tih, pakhat tah hlanglen, pakhat tah vawtthoek la om.
2 The rich man had very many flocks and herds,
Hlanglen tah boiva khaw, saelhung khaw, a yet la muep a khueh.
3 but the poor man had nothing, except one little ewe lamb, which he had acquired. And he raised it and it grew up alongside him and his children. It used to eat of his morsel and drink from his cup and sleep in his arms, and it was like a daughter to him.
Tedae khodaeng taengah tah a lai duen ca tumanu pakhat phoeiah a tloe om pawh. Te te a hing sak tih amah taengah a ca rhoek taengah rhoeng hang, a buhkam te a cah tih a boengloeng te a tul. A rhang dongah ip tih canu bangla a taengah a khueh.
4 Now a traveler came to the rich man, but he was unwilling to take from his own flock or his own herd to prepare for the traveler who had come to him, but took the poor man's lamb and prepared it for the man who had come to him."
Hlanglen pakhat tah tekah hlang taengah yinthing la a pawk pah. Tedae anih taengla aka thoeng yiin kok nah ham amah kah boiva neh a saelhung tah loh hamla a hnaih. Te dongah khodaeng ca kah tumanu te a loh pah tih anih taengla aka thoeng hlang ham te a ngawn pah,” a ti nah.
5 Then David became very angry with that man, and he said to Nathan, "As the LORD lives, the man who has done this deserves death.
Te vaengah David kah a thintoek tah tekah hlang taengah sai khungdaeng. Te dongah Nathan te, “BOEIPA kah hingnah dongah te tla aka saii hlang tah duek ca kangna saeh.
6 He must restore the lamb fourfold, because he did this thing, and because he had no pity."
A thinphat pawt tih hekah hno he a saii dongah tumanu te rhaepli la thuung saeh,” a ti nah.
7 Then Nathan said to David, "You are the man. This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: 'I anointed you king over Israel, and I delivered you out of the hand of Saul.
Te vaengah Nathan loh David te, “Tekah hlang tah namah ni. Israel Pathen BOEIPA loh, 'Kai loh Israel manghai la nang kang koelh tih Saul kut lamkah khaw kai long ni nang kan huul.
8 I gave you your master's house, and your master's wives into your care, and gave you the house of Israel and of Judah; and if that would have been too little, I would have added to you many more such things.
Na boeipa kah im te namah taengah, na boei rhoek kah a yuu rhoek khaw na rhang dongah kan tloeng coeng. Israel neh Judah imlo khaw nang taengah kam paek coeng. A yol bal atah he khaw ke khaw nang ham man kan thap ve.
9 Why have you despised the LORD, to do that which is evil in his sight? You have struck Uriah the Hethite with the sword, and have taken his wife to be your wife, and have slain him with the sword of the people of Ammon.
Balae tih a mikhmuh ah boethae saii ham BOEIPA ol te na sawtsit. Ka mikhmuh ah Khitti Uriah te cunghang neh na ngawn. A yuu te namah yuu la na rhawt pah phoeiah amah te Ammon koca rhoek kah cunghang neh na ngawn.
10 Now therefore the sword will never depart from your house, because you have despised me, and have taken the wife of Uriah the Hethite to be your wife.'
Kai nan hnaep tih Khitti Uriah yuu te na rhawt pah phoeiah namah yuu la na khueh. Te dongah kumhal duela na imkhui lamkah cunghang Te nong voel mahpawh.
11 "This is what the LORD says: 'Look, I will raise up evil against you out of your own house; and I will take your wives before your eyes, and give them to your neighbor, and he will lie with your wives in the sight of this sun.
BOEIPA loh he ni a. thui, na imkhui lamloh nang soah yoethaenah ka pai sak ni. Na yuu rhoek te na mikhmuh ah ka loh vetih na hui taengla ka paek ni. Na yuu rhoek te khothaih sale ah a ih puei ni.
12 For you did it secretly, but I will do this thing before all Israel, and before the sun.'"
Yinhnuk ah na saii dae olka te kai loh Israel tom neh khomik hmaiah kam phoe ni, ' a ti,” a ti nah.
13 David said to Nathan, "I have sinned against the LORD." Nathan said to David, "The LORD also has put away your sin. You will not die.
Te daengah David loh Nathan taengah, “BOEIPA taengah ka tholh coeng,” a ti nah. Nathan loh David te, “BOEIPA loh na tholh a khoe coeng tih na duek mahpawh.
14 However, because by this deed you have shown utter contempt for the LORD, the child also who is born to you shall surely die."
Tedae te bang khoboe neh BOEIPA kah thunkha rhoek te yah na bai la na bai sak dongah nang ham camoe aka thaang Te duek rhoe duek ni,” a ti nah.
15 Then Nathan went to his home. And God struck the child that Uriah's wife bore to David, and it was very sick.
Nathan loh amah im la a caeh nen tah Uriah yuu loh David ham a cun pah camoe te BOEIPA loh a vuek tih a rhawp pah.
16 Then David sought from God on behalf of the child. And David fasted, and went in and lay all night on the ground.
Te dongah David loh camoe hamla Pathen te a toem. Yaehnah khaw David loh a yaeh tih a khum puei. Diklai dongah yalh tih rhaehba sut.
17 And the elders of his house approached him to lift him up from the ground, but he was unwilling, and he would not eat food with them.
A imkhui kah patong rhoek loh anih Te diklai lamloh thoh hamla a taengah pai uh. Tedae ngaih pawt tih amih taengah buh ca voel pawh.
18 It happened on the seventh day, that the child died. The servants of David feared to tell him that the child was dead; for they said, "Look, while the child was yet alive, we spoke to him, and he did not listen to our voice. How will he then harm himself, if we tell him that the child is dead?"
A hnin rhih dongah camoe te duek. Tedae camoe a duek te amah taengah puen hamla David kah sal rhoek loh a rhih uh. “Camoe a hing la a om vaengah pataeng anih te m'voek uh dae mamih ol te a hnatun moenih ta. Boethae saii mai koinih camoe a duek Te anih taengah metlam n'ti eh?,” a ti uh.
19 But when David noticed that his servants were whispering together, David perceived that the child was dead; and David said to his servants, "Is the child dead?" They said, "He is dead."
Tedae a sal rhoek a sisuk uh te David loh a hmuh vaengah camoe duek tila David loh a yakming. Te vaengah David loh a sal rhoek te, “Camoe te duek coeng a?,” a ti nah hatah, “Duek coeng,” a ti na uh.
20 Then David arose from the ground, and washed, and anointed himself, and changed his clothing; and he came into the house of the LORD, and worshiped. Then he went to his own house, and he asked for bread to eat. And they set bread before him, and he ate.
Te daengah David Te diklai lamloh thoo tih, pumrho a silh, situi a hluk, a himbai hainak te a tho. Te phoeiah BOEIPA kah im te a paan tih a bawk. Amah im la a mael phoeiah caak a hoe dongah a tawn pa uh tih a caak.
21 Then his servants said to him, "What is this that you have done? You fasted and wept and kept vigil for the child while he was alive; but when the child was dead, you rose up and ate bread."
Te vaengah a sal rhoek loh amah taengah, “Hebang khoboe he metlamnim, camoe a hing vaengah caak yaeh na saii tih na rhap. Camoe a duek vaengah nim na thoo tih buh na caak,” a ti na uh.
22 He said, "While the child was yet alive, I fasted and wept; for I said, 'Who knows whether the LORD will not be gracious to me, that the child may live?'
Tedae, “Camoe a hing vaengah caak ka yaeh tih ka rhah te, 'U long a ming, BOEIPA kai he n'rhen khaw n'rhen mai vetih camoe te hing mai mako,’ ka ti dae ta.
23 But now he is dead, why should I fast? Can I bring him back? I shall go to him, but he will not return to me."
Tedae a duek coeng dongah ba ham lae kai loh ka yaeh voel eh. Anih ha mael ham te ka saii thai aya? Kamah tah anih taengla ka cet suidae anih tah kai taengla ha mael pawh,” a ti.
24 David comforted Bathsheba his wife, and went in to her, and lay with her. She bore a son, and he called his name Solomon. The LORD loved him;
Te phoeiah David loh a yuu Bathsheba te a hloep tih a taengla a kun thil. Te vaengah anih te a yalh puei tih ca tongpa a sak pah. A ming a sak vaengah Solomon la a sak tih BOEIPA loh anih a lungnah.
25 and he sent by the hand of Nathan the prophet; and he named him Jedidiah, for the LORD's sake.
Te dongah tonghma Nathan kut ah ol a pat tih camoe ming te BOEIPA kah Jedidiah la a khue.
26 Now Joab fought against Rabbah of the people of Ammon, and took the royal city.
Te vaengah Joab loh Ammon koca rhoek kah Rabbah te a vathoh thil tih mangpa khopuei te a rhawt pah.
27 Joab sent messengers to David, and said, "I have fought against Rabbah, and have also taken the water supply of the city.
Te vaengah Joab loh David taengah puencawn a tueih tih, “Rabbah te ka vathoh thil tih, tui kah khopuei te khaw ka buem coeng.
28 Now therefore gather the rest of the people together, and besiege the city and capture it yourself, or I will capture the city, and it will be named after me."
Te dongah pilnam hlangrhuel te coi laeh. Khopuei te rhaeh thil lamtah buem laeh. Kamah loh khopuei te ka buem vetih kamah ming la ka khue ve,” a ti nah.
29 David gathered all the people together, and went to Rabbah, and fought against it, and took it.
Te dongah David loh pilnam te boeih a coi tih Rabbah la cet. Te phoeiah a vathoh thil bal tih Rabbah Te buem.
30 He took the crown of their king from off his head; and its weight was a talent of gold, and in it were precious stones; and it was set on David's head. He brought out the spoil of the city, a very great amount.
A manghai kah rhuisam te a lu dong lamkah a dul pah vaengah sui neh lung vang Te a khiing he talent khat lo. TeTe David lu dongah a khuem tih khopuei kah kutbuem a loh khaw muep yet.
31 He brought out the people who were in it, and put them to work with saws, and iron picks, and iron axes, and to labor at the brick kiln. And he did the same to all the cities of the people of Ammon. David and all the people returned to Jerusalem.
A khuikah pilnam te a khuen tih hlawh taengah, thi tlang taengah, thi yoeng taengah a khueh. Amih te taptlang dongah a tueih. Te tlamTe Ammon koca rhoek kah khopuei tom te a saii daengah David neh pilnam pum loh Jerusalem la mael pueng.
