< 1 Kings 21 >

1 It happened after these things, that Naboth the Jezreelite had a vineyard, which was in Jezreel, near the palace of Ahab king of Samaria.
Jezreel akonin Naboth kiti mikhat anaum in, ama hin Samaria lengpa Ahab leng inpi toh kinaicha in, Jezreel mun na chun lengpilei khat ana neijin ahi.
2 Ahab spoke to Naboth, saying, "Give me your vineyard, that I may have it for a vegetable garden, because it is near to my house; and I will give you for it a better vineyard than it. Or, if it seems good to you, I will give you its worth in money."
Nikhat hi Ahab min Naboth kom ah, “Na lengpilei hi ka leng inpi toh akinai jeh in, honna kanei dingin neiki chohsah tan, akhel in hiche sang’a lengpilei phajo nape ingting ahiloule na deijoh leh aman dingin sum joh peh lhon nang’e,” atipeh in ahi.
3 Naboth said to Ahab, "May YHWH forbid me, that I should give the inheritance of my fathers to you."
Ahin Naboth in adonbut in, “Kapu kapa khang’a pat’a kagou chin khat chu nang ka pehdoh jeng ding vang chu Pakai jahnom lou himai hen,” atipeh in ahi.
4 Ahab came into his house sullen and angry because of the word which Naboth the Jezreelite had spoken to him; for he had said, "I will not give you the inheritance of my fathers." He laid himself down on his bed, and turned away his face, and would eat no bread.
Hiche Naboth donbutna chun Ahab chu alunghansah lheh jengin, lungnom mo tah’in ainlang’a achetan ahi. Lengpa chun an jong ane nom tapon, bang lang angan alum tan ahi.
5 But Jezebel his wife came to him, and said to him, "Why is your spirit so sad, that you eat no bread?"
Ajinu Jezebel chun, “Ipi nati ham? Ipi dinga lungnom mo tah a anne louva na um jeng ham?” tin adong in ahi.
6 He said to her, "Because I spoke to Naboth the Jezreelite, and said to him, 'Give me your vineyard for money; or else, if it pleases you, I will give you another vineyard for it.' He answered, 'I will not give you my vineyard.'"
Ahab in, “Naboth komah na lengpilei nei chohsah in ahi louleh akhel nape nang’e, kati leh anom pon ahi,” ati.
7 Jezebel his wife said to him, "Do you now govern the kingdom of Israel? Arise, and eat bread, and let your heart be merry. I will give you the vineyard of Naboth the Jezreelite."
Jezebel in, “Nangma hi Israelte lengp nahi hilou ham? Thoudoh inlang an nen, hiche chungthua chun lungkham tah hih’in, keiman Naboth lengpilei chu nape nang’e,” atin ahi.
8 So she wrote letters in Ahab's name, and sealed them with his seal, and sent the letters to the elders and to the nobles who were in his city, who lived with Naboth.
Hichun Jezebel in Ahab khel in ama min in lekha ajih in mohor anam khum in hichun khopi sunga lamkai holeh upa ho koma chun lekha athot in hitin anajih e,
9 She wrote in the letters, saying, "Proclaim a fast, and set Naboth on high among the people.
“Mipiho chu an-ngol a tao dingin koukhom unlang, Naboth chu mun thupi’a tou sah un,
10 Set two men, base fellows, before him, and let them testify against him, saying, 'You cursed God and the king.' Then carry him out, and stone him to death."
Chuleh pannabei mi ni akoma tousah unlang, amani chun lengpa le Pathen atai tom’e tin themmo chan u-hen. Chujouteng kai doh’unlang song in seplih un,” ati.
11 The men of his city, even the elders and the nobles who lived in his city, did as Jezebel had sent to them, according as it was written in the letters which she had sent to them.
Hiti chun khopi sunga upa ho leh lamkai ho chun Jezebel lekha a kijih thupeh dungjui chun abol tauvin ahi.
12 They proclaimed a fast, and set Naboth on high among the people.
Amahon an ngol ding asom’un, Nabath chu mipi masanga thupitah in atousah un ahi.
13 The two men, the base fellows, came in and sat before him. The base fellows testified against him, even against Naboth, in the presence of the people, saying, "Naboth cursed God and the king." Then they carried him out of the city, and stoned him to death with stones.
Hijouchun mi pannabei mini chu amasanga atousah un, Naboth chu mipi masanga themmo achan lhonin, “Ama hin Pathen leh lengpa asamsen ahi,” ati lhonin ahi. Hijeh chun ama chu khopi po langa akaidoh un song in aseplih tauvin ahi.
14 Then they sent to Jezebel, saying, "Naboth has been stoned, and is dead."
Khopi lamkai ho chun Jezebel komah thu athot un, “Nabath chu aki seplih tai,” atiuvin ahi.
15 It happened, when Jezebel heard that Naboth was stoned, and was dead, that Jezebel said to Ahab, "Arise, take possession of the vineyard of Naboth the Jezreelite, which he refused to give you for money; for Naboth is not alive, but dead."
Chuin Jezebel in hiche thu chu ajah phat in, Ahab jah’ah, “Naboth lengpilei nang kom’a ana joh nomlou chu nahet em? Ven ama athi tai, alengpilei khu na kilah thei ahi tai,” ati.
16 It happened, when Ahab heard that Naboth was dead, that Ahab rose up to go down to the vineyard of Naboth the Jezreelite, to take possession of it.
Hichun Ahab jong gangtah’in ache suh in Naboth lengpilei chu aga kichan tan ahi.
17 The word of YHWH came to Elijah the Tishbite, saying,
Ahin Pakaiyin Elijah komah thu ahin seitan ahi.
18 "Arise, go down to meet Ahab king of Israel, who dwells in Samaria. Look, he is in the vineyard of Naboth, where he has gone down to take possession of it.
“Samaria a vaihompa Israel lengpa Ahab khu ga kimupi dingin chesuh tan, amachu Jezreel munna Naboth lengpileiya ama a ding akichan pet tah nato ding ahi,” ati.
19 You shall speak to him, saying, 'Thus says YHWH, "Have you killed and also taken possession?"' You shall speak to him, saying, 'Thus says YHWH, "In the place where dogs licked the blood of Naboth, dogs will lick your blood, even yours."'"
Hiche thuhi ahengah seipeh in, “Pakaiyin hitin aseiye, Naboth na tha chu phakhopset lou ham? Hitiapihi anei agou nachom kit nalaiset ding ham? Hitia hi thil nabol jeh in, ui-chaten Naboth thisan ale na’u mun achun nang thisan jong ale di’u ahi,” agatisah tai.
20 And Ahab said to Elijah, "Have you found me, my enemy?" And he answered, "I have found you, because you have sold yourself to do that which is evil in the sight of YHWH, to provoke him to anger.
Hichun Ahab chu Elijah komah apeng jah jengin, “Tuahi kamelma pan, neihung mudoh kit hi tam?” atileh, Elijah in adonbut in, “Henge, nangman Pakai mitmu a thilse jeng bolna a nakipeh jing jeh a ka hungkit ahi tai,” ati.
21 Thus says YHWH, 'Look, I will bring disaster on you, and will utterly sweep you away and will cut off from Ahab everyone, slave or free in Israel.
Hijeh chun tun Pakaiyin hitin aseiye, “Nangma naval-lhum jing thei manthahna kahin lhun khum sah ding, nangma chilhah te pasal ho chuleh nasohho chujongleh soh hilou ho jong Israel gamsung hoilai mun hijong leh kasuhmang ding ahi.
22 I will make your house like the house of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, and like the house of Baasha the son of Ahijah for the provocation with which you have provoked me to anger, and have made Israel to sin.'"
Keiman Ahijah chapa Baasha insung mite le Nebat chapa Jeroboam insung mite kasuh mang hel banga, nangma insung mite jong kasuhmang ding ahitai. Ajeh chu nangman keima nei sulunghang behseh jengin chuleh nangin Israel tehi nachonset sah tan ahi,” ati
23 YHWH also spoke of Jezebel, saying, "The dogs shall eat Jezebel in the district of Jezreel.
“Chuleh Jezebel chungchang ahin, Pakaiyin hitin aseiye, ‘Jezreel mun’a gam behkhat chunga Jezebel tahsa chu uichan aneh ding ahi,” ati.
24 The dogs will eat he who dies of Ahab in the city; and the birds of the sky will eat he who dies in the field."
“Ahab insung mite jouse hiche khopi sunga thiho jouse jong chu uicha hon aneh dingu chuleh gam lah’a thiho jouse chu muthong hon aneh diu ahi,” ati.
25 But there was none like Ahab, who sold himself to do that which was evil in the sight of YHWH, whom Jezebel his wife stirred up.
Ajinu Jezebel in athu nun jeh'a Ahab min Pakai mitmua thilse bolna a aki pehlut banga kipehlut na koimacha dang aumpon ahi.
26 He did very abominably in following idols, according to all that the Amorites did, whom YHWH cast out before the children of Israel.
Athil bolset nasa pen chu, milim doi Amon mite ahou bang uva ahou chu ahipen’e. Amaho hi Israelte lhun masanga Pakaiyin ana deldoh masat nam mite chu ahiuve.
27 It happened, when Ahab heard those words, that he tore his clothes, and put sackcloth on his flesh, and fasted, and lay in sackcloth, and went softly.
Hiche thupeh hi Ahab in ajah phat in, apon abottel in, khaodip pon akisel in, an angol in lunghem tah in khaodip pon chung ah alum in ahi.
28 The word of YHWH came to Elijah the Tishbite, saying,
Hichun Pakaija kon’a thupeh Elijah kom’a ahung lhung kit in,
29 "See how Ahab humbles himself before me? Because he humbles himself before me, I will not bring the disaster in his days; but in his son's days will I bring the disaster on his house."
“Ahab khu keima masanga ichangeiya amale ama kisunem’a hitam ti namu em? Aman hichen geija aki suhnem tah jeh in, keiman ka bolgot chu ama damsung in bol taponge, achate cheng leh achilhah chunga bou ka bolding, alenggam kasuhmang ding ahi tai,” ati.
