1 Kings 20
1 Ben Hadad the king of Aram gathered all his army together; and there were thirty-two kings with him, and horses and chariots: and he went up and besieged Samaria, and fought against it.
Syria siangpahrang Ben-Hadad mah angmah ih misatuh kaminawk to pakhueng boih; siangpahrang quithum hnetto, hrangnawk, hrang lakoknawk hoiah misatuk hanah caeh tahang moe, Samaria to takui khoep, to pacoengah a tuk.
2 He sent messengers to Ahab king of Israel, into the city, and said to him, "Thus says Ben Hadad,
Anih mah laicaehnawk to vangpui thungah, Israel siangpahrang Ahab khaeah patoeh moe, anih khaeah, Ben-Hadad mah,
3 'Your silver and your gold is mine. Your wives also and your children, even the best, are mine.'"
nang ih sui hoi phoisanawk loe kai ih ni; ka hoih koek na zunawk hoi na caanawk doeh kai ih boeh ni, tiah a thuih, tiah a naa.
4 The king of Israel answered, "It is according to your saying, my lord, O king. I am yours, and all that I have."
Israel siangpahrang mah, Aw siangpahrang, ka angraeng, na thuih ih lok baktih toengah, kaimah hoi ka tawnh ih hmuennawk boih loe nang ih ni, tiah a naa.
5 The messengers came again, and said, "Ben Hadad says, 'I sent indeed to you, saying, "You shall deliver me your silver, and your gold, and your wives, and your children;
Laicaehnawk angzoh o let moe, Ben-Hadad mah, Nang ih sui hoi phoisanawk, na zu hoi na caanawk to nang paek hanah kami kang patoeh,
6 but I will send my servants to you tomorrow about this time, and they shall search your house, and the houses of your servants; and it shall be, that whatever is pleasant in their eyes, they shall put it in their hand, and take it away."'"
toe khawnbang vaihi tue thuem ah, ka tamnanawk kang patoeh han, nihcae mah na im hoi na tamnanawk ohhaih im to pakrong o tih, nihcae mah koeh ih atho kana hmuennawk to la o boih ueloe, phaw o tih, tiah a thuih, tiah a naa o.
7 Then the king of Israel called all the elders of the land, and said, "Please notice how this man seeks mischief; for he sent to me for my wives, and for my children, and for my silver, and for my gold; and I did not deny him."
To naah Israel siangpahrang mah a prae thung ih kacoehtanawk boih to kawk moe, nihcae khaeah, Khen oh, hae kami loe kawkrukmaw raihaih pakrong; ka zu hoi ka caanawk, ka sui hoi phoisanawk to lak hanah kami patoeh naah, ka kaang pae ai, tiah a naa.
8 All the elders and all the people said to him, "Do not listen, neither consent."
Kacoehtanawk hoi kaminawk boih mah, a lok tahngai pae hmah loe, a hnik ih hmuen doeh poek hmah, tiah a naa o.
9 Therefore he said to the messengers of Ben Hadad, "Tell my lord the king, 'All that you sent for to your servant at the first I will do; but this thing I cannot do.'" The messengers departed, and brought him back the message.
To pongah anih mah Ben-Hadad ih laicaehnawk khaeah, Ka angraeng siangpahrang khaeah hae tiah thui pae oh; na tamna patoeh moe, hnik hmaloe ih hmuen to ka sak han, toe hae hmuen loe ka sah mak ai, tiah a thuih, tiah thui paeh, tiah a naa. Laicaehnawk loe amlaem o moe, Ben-Hadad khaeah lok to sin pae o.
10 Ben Hadad sent to him, and said, "The gods do so to me, and more also, if the dust of Samaria shall suffice for handfuls for all the people who follow me."
Ben-Hadad mah Ahab khaeah laicaeh kalah maeto patoeh let, Samaria to ka phraek han, to ih maiphu to ka hnukbang kaminawk boih mah, ban tamsum to sin o han ih mataeng doeh khawt mak ai, to tiah ka sah ai nahaeloe sithawnawk mah to pongah kanung aep ah ka nuiah sah nasoe, tiah a naa.
11 The king of Israel answered, "Tell him, 'Do not let him who puts on his armor brag like he who takes it off.'"
Israel siangpahrang mah, Maiphaw maica hoi amthoep kami loe, maiphaw maica angkringh kami baktiah amoek han om ai, tiah thuih paeh, tiah a naa.
12 It happened, when Ben Hadad heard this message, as he was drinking, he and the kings, in the pavilions, that he said to his servants, "Prepare to attack." They prepared to attack the city.
To lok to imthung ah Ben-Hadad hoi nawnto mu kanae, angmah ih angraengnawk mah thaih o naah, a tamnanawk khaeah, Misatuk hanah amsak oh, tiah a naa. To pongah nihcae mah vangpui to tuk hanah amsak o.
13 Look, a prophet came near to Ahab king of Israel, and said, "Thus says YHWH, 'Have you seen all this great multitude? Look, I will deliver it into your hand this day; and you shall know that I am YHWH.'"
Khenah, Israel siangpahrang Ahab khaeah tahmaa maeto angzoh moe, Angraeng mah, Pop parai hae misatuh kaminawk hae na hnuk maw? Khenah, vaihniah hae kaminawk hae na ban ah kang paek han, to tiah ni kai loe Angraeng ni, tiah nang panoek o tih, tiah a thuih, tiah a naa.
14 Ahab said, "By whom?" He said, "Thus says YHWH, 'By the young men of the governors of the districts.'" Then he said, "Who shall begin the battle?" He answered, "You."
Ahab mah, Mi khaeah maw paek tih? tiah a naa. Anih mah, prae ahap ukkungnawk hoi thendoengnawk khaeah paek tih, tiah Angraeng mah thuih, tiah a naa. Mi mah maw misatuk han lokpaek tih? tiah a dueng let bae. Tahmaa mah, Nang mah na paek tih, tiah a naa.
15 Then he mustered the young men of the governors of the districts, and they were two hundred and thirty-two. After them, he mustered all the people, even all the children of Israel, being seven thousand.
To pongah prae ukkung angraengnawk hoi thendoengnawk to Ahab mah kawk, kami cumvai hnet, quithumto pacoeng, hnetto angzoh o; nihcae pacoengah Israel kaminawk boih to pakoep o naah, kami sang sarihto phak.
16 They went out at noon. But Ben Hadad was drinking himself drunk in the pavilions, he and the kings, the thirty-two kings who helped him.
Nihcae loe athun ah caeh o; Ben-Hadad hoi angmah bomkung siangpahrang quithumto pacoeng, hnettonawk loe angmacae iihhaih im ah mu paquih o.
17 the young men of the governors of the districts went out first; and Ben Hadad sent out, and they told him, saying, "Men are coming out from Samaria."
Prae ukkung angraengnawk hoi thendoengnawk to hmaloe ah caeh o. Ben-Hadad mah patoeh ih kaminawk mah anih khaeah, Samaria vangpui hoiah kaminawk angzoh o, tiah a naa o.
18 He said, "If they have come out for peace, take them alive; or if they have come out for war, take them alive."
Anih mah, Angdaehhaih sak hanah angzo o cadoeh, kahing ah angzo o haih loe, misatuk han angzo o cadoeh, kahing ah angzo o haih ah, tiah a naa.
19 So these went out of the city, the young men of the governors of the districts, and the army which followed them.
Prae ukkung angraengnawk hoi thendoengnawk loe vangpui thung hoiah tacawt o, misatuh kaminawk loe nihcae hnukah bang o.
20 They each killed his man. The Arameans fled, and Israel pursued them. Ben Hadad the king of Aram escaped on a horse with horsemen.
Nihcae mah angmacae ih misanawk to hum o boih pongah, Syria kaminawk loe cawnh o; Israel kaminawk mah nihcae to patom o. Toe Syria siangpahrang Ben-Hadad loe hrang angthueng misatuh kaminawk hoi nawnto cawnh pongah, a loih.
21 The king of Israel went out, and struck the horses and chariots, and killed the Arameans with a great slaughter.
Israel siangpahrang loe hmabangah tacawt moe, hrangnawk hoi hrang lakoknawk to paro pae pacoengah, paroeai Syria kaminawk to hum.
22 The prophet came near to the king of Israel, and said to him, "Go, strengthen yourself, and mark, and see what you do; for at the return of the year the king of Aram will come up against you."
Tahmaa loe Israel siangpahrang khaeah angzoh moe, anih khaeah, Na thacaksak loe, kawbangmaw ka sak han, tiah poek het ah; Syria siangpahrang loe nang tuk hanah hmabang saning ah angzo let tih, tiah a naa.
23 The servants of the king of Aram said to him, "Their god is a god of the hills; therefore they were stronger than we. But let us fight against them in the plain, and surely we shall be stronger than they.
Syria siangpahrang ih tamnanawk mah anih hanah, nihcae ih sithawnawk loe mae ukkung sithaw ah oh o; to pong ni aicae pongah thacak o; toe nihcae to azawn ah tuh o si, to tiah nahaeloe nihcae pongah tha a cak o kue tih, tiah poekhaih kahoih to paek o.
24 Do this thing: take the kings away, every man out of his place, and put captains in their place.
Hae hmuen hae sah ah; siangpahrangnawk boih to takhoe ah loe, nihcae zuengah misatuh angraengnawk to suem ah.
25 Muster an army, like the army that you have lost, horse for horse, and chariot for chariot. We will fight against them in the plain, and surely we will be stronger than them." He listened to their voice, and did so.
Canghniah misa sung kami hoi hrang lakok angthueng misatuh kaminawk to kroek ah; to tiah ni Israel kaminawk to azawn ah a tuh o thaih ueloe, nihcae pongah tha a cak o kue tih, tiah a naa o. Nihcae mah thuih ih lok to anih mah tahngaih pae.
26 It happened at the return of the year, that Ben Hadad mustered the Arameans, and went up to Aphek, to fight against Israel.
Hmabang saning phak let naah loe, Ben-Hadad mah Syria kaminawk to kok moe, Israel caanawk tuk hanah Aphek vangpui ah caeh o tahang.
27 The children of Israel were mustered, and were provisioned, and went against them. The children of Israel camped before them like two little flocks of young goats; but the Arameans filled the country.
Israel kaminawk mah doeh kami to kok o moe, caaknaek paroep o pacoengah, misatuk hanah caeh o toeng; Syria kaminawk loe prae boih ah koi o; Israel kaminawk loe nihcae hmaa ah tetta maeh caa hnetto baktiah ni oh o.
28 A man of God came near and spoke to the king of Israel, and said, "Thus says YHWH, 'Because the Arameans have said, "YHWH is a god of the hills, but he is not a god of the valleys"; therefore I will deliver all this great multitude into your hand, and you shall know that I am YHWH.'"
To naah Sithaw ih kami to angzoh moe, Israel siangpahrang khaeah, Angraeng mah, Syria kaminawk mah, Angraeng loe mae ukkung Sithaw ah poek o; azawn ukkung Sithaw ah poek o ai pongah, pop parai hae misatuh kaminawk hae na ban ah kang paek han, to naah kai loe Angraeng ni, tiah nang panoek o tih, tiah a thuih, tiah a naa.
29 They camped one over against the other seven days. So it was, that in the seventh day the battle was joined; and the children of Israel killed one hundred thousand footmen of the Arameans in one day.
Nihcae loe ni sarihto thung mikhmai kangtongh ah hae bang ahmuen hoi ho bang ahmuen ah atai o; ni sarihto naah misatuk amtong o; Israel kaminawk mah nito thungah, khok hoi misatuh Syria kami sang cumvaito hum o.
30 But the rest fled to Aphek, into the city; and the wall fell on twenty-seven thousand men who were left. Ben Hadad fled, and came into the city, into an inner room.
Kaom kanghmatnawk loe, Aphek vangpui ah cawnh o; to naah vangpui sipae to tanimh moe, kami sang pumphae sarihto taeh moe, duek o; Ben-Hadad loe vangpui thungah cawnh moe, imthung ah anghawk.
31 His servants said to him, "See now, we have heard that the kings of the house of Israel are merciful kings. Please let us put sackcloth on our bodies, and ropes on our heads, and go out to the king of Israel. Maybe he will save your life."
Angmah ih tamnanawk mah anih khaeah, Khenah, Israel imthung takoh siangpahrangnawk loe kami tahmenhaih palungthin tawnh o, tiah ka thaih o; to pongah kazii angzaeng si loe, lu to qui hoiah zaeng pacoengah, Israel siangpahrang khaeah caeh o si; to tiah nahaeloe na hinghaih pahlong khoe doeh om tih, tiah a naa o.
32 So they put sackcloth on their bodies and ropes on their heads, and came to the king of Israel, and said, "Your servant Ben Hadad says, 'Please let me live.'" He said, "Is he still alive? He is my brother."
To pongah nihcae mah kazii to angzaeng o moe, lu to qui hoiah zaeng o pacoengah, Israel siangpahrang khaeah caeh o moe, Na tamna Ben-Hadad mah, Ka hinghaih pahlung raeh nasoe, tiah a thuih, tiah a naa o. Siangpahrang mah, Anih loe hing vop maw? Anih loe kai ih amnawk ni, tiah a naa.
33 Now the men were looking for an omen, and they seized upon it from him, and they said, "Ben Hadad is your brother." Then he said, "Go, bring him." Then Ben Hadad came out to him, and he had him come up into the chariot.
To kaminawk loe siangpahrang Ahab mah thuih ih lok to kahoih ah poek o moe, a thuikoehhaih lok to karangah naeh pae o; ue, namnawk Ben-Hadad loe hing vop, tiah a naa o. Siangpahrang mah, Caeh oh loe, anih to hoi oh, tiah a naa. Ben-Hadad anih khaeah angzoh naah, Ahab mah angmah ih hrang lakok pongah lak tahang.
34 Ben Hadad said to him, "The cities which my father took from your father I will restore. You shall make streets for yourself in Damascus, as my father made in Samaria." "I," said Ahab, "will let you go with this covenant." So he made a covenant with him, and let him go.
Ben-Hadad mah anih khaeah, Kampa mah nampa khae hoiah lak ih vangpuinawk to kang paek let han; kampa mah Samaria vangpui ah sak ih baktih toengah, Damaska vangpui ah nangmah hanah hmuenmae zawhhaih to sah ah, tiah a naa. Ahab mah, Angdaehhaih lok na thuih pongah kang loisak han, tiah a naa. To pongah anih hoi lokkamhaih sak pacoengah, anih to caehsak.
35 A certain man of the sons of the prophets said to his fellow by the word of YHWH, "Please strike me." The man refused to strike him.
Angraeng mah paek ih lok hoiah tahmaa capa maeto mah angmah ih imtaeng kami maeto khaeah, Kai hae na takroek ah, tiah a naa. Toe to kami mah angmak pae.
36 Then he said to him, "Because you have not obeyed the voice of YHWH, look, as soon as you are departed from me, a lion shall kill you." As soon as he was departed from him, a lion found him, and killed him.
To pacoengah tahmaa mah to kami khaeah, Angraeng ih lok na tahngai ai pongah, ka hmaa hoi na tacawt pacoengah, kaipui mah na kaek tih, tiah a naa. To kami tacawt pacoeng, akra ai ah kaipui mah anih to hnuk naah, anih to kaek maat.
37 Then he found another man, and said, "Please strike me." The man struck him, smiting and wounding him.
Tahmaa mah kalah kami maeto hnuk let naah anih khaeah, Kai hae na hum ah tiah a naa let bae; to pongah to kami mah anih to takroek moe, ahma caak.
38 So the prophet departed, and waited for the king by the way, and disguised himself with his headband over his eyes.
To pacoengah tahmaa loe caeh moe, siangpahrang to loklam ah zing; a mikhmai to pala hoiah khuk khoep moe, minawk kalah baktiah angsak.
39 As the king passed by, he cried to the king; and he said, "Your servant went out into the midst of the battle; and look, a man turned aside, and brought a man to me, and said, 'Guard this man. If by any means he be missing, then your life shall be for his life, or else you shall pay a talent of silver.'
Siangpahrang anih taengah phak naah tahmaa mah, Na tamna loe misa angtukhaih ahmuen ah caeh; misa angtukhaih ahmuen hoiah angzo kami maeto mah, a naeh ih kami maeto kai khaeah ang hoih; Hae kami hae kahoih ah toep ah; anih hae nang hmatsak ving nahaeloe, anih hinghaih zuengah na hinghaih to anghma tih, to tih ai boeh loe phoisa talent maeto paek han angaih, tiah ang naa.
40 As your servant was busy here and there, he was gone." The king of Israel said to him, "So your judgment shall be; you yourself have decided it."
Toe na tamna loe hae bangah ho bangah tok ka sak moe, kong ai pongah, naeh ih kami to anghmat ving, tiah a naa. To naah Israel siangpahrang mah, anih khaeah, Na thuih ih lok baktiah, na nuiah lokcaekhaih om tih, tiah a naa.
41 He hurried, and took the headband away from his eyes; and the king of Israel recognized that he was of the prophets.
Tahmaa mah mik zaenghaih pala to karangah khok naah, Israel siangpahrang mah anih loe tahmaa maeto ni, tiah panoek.
42 He said to him, "Thus says YHWH, 'Because you have let go out of your hand the man whom I had devoted to destruction, therefore your life shall go for his life, and your people for his people.'"
To naah tahmaa mah siangpahrang khaeah, Angraeng mah, Kai mah paduek han ka suek ih kami to na loisak; to pongah anih hinghaih zuengah na hinghaih mah zok ueloe, anih ih kaminawk mah tongh zuengah, nang ih kaminawk mah tongh o tih, tiah a thuih, tiah a naa.
43 The king of Israel went to his house sullen and angry, and came to Samaria.
To naah Israel siangpaharng loe mawnhaih hoi palungboenghaih hoiah Samaria vangpui ih siangpahrang im ah caeh.
