< 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.
Hathnukkhu vah, hettelah ao. Jezreel tami Naboth ni misur takha a tawn. Hot teh, Jezreel e Samaria siangpahrang Ahab e im teng vah ao.
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."
Ahab ni Naboth koe na misur takha heh ka im teng ao dawkvah, saring khoum nahanlah na poe lawih. A yueng lah takha ka hawihnawn e na poe han. Nahoeh pawiteh, tangka lah na ngai pawiteh tangka lah na poe han telah atipouh.
3 Naboth said to Ahab, "May YHWH forbid me, that I should give the inheritance of my fathers to you."
Hateiteh, Naboth ni Ahab koevah, ka mintoenaw e râw nang poe hane teh BAWIPA ni na ngang naseh telah ati.
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.
Jezreel tami Naboth ni ka mintoenaw e râw teh nang koe na poe mahoeh telah a dei dawkvah, Ahab teh minhmai mathoe hoi lungphuen laihoi a im dawk a kâen. A ikhun dawk a yan teh avangvanglah a kamlang teh rawca cat ngai hoeh.
5 But Jezebel his wife came to him, and said to him, "Why is your spirit so sad, that you eat no bread?"
Hateiteh, a yu Jezebel ni ahni koe a cei teh, bangkongmaw na muitha lungmathoe laihoi ao teh, rawca ca hanelah na ngai hoeh telah atipouh.
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.'"
Ahni ni Jezebel koevah, Jezreel tami Naboth koevah, na misur takha hah na ran sak, nahoeh pawiteh, na ngaihnawn e awm pawiteh misur takha alouke na poe han telah ka ti pouh. Ahni ni, ka misur takha na poe mahoeh telah na pathung dawkvah, telah atipouh.
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."
A yu Jezebel ni ahni koevah, nang ni Isarel uknaeram hah kâtawnnae na tawn hoeh na maw. Thaw nateh lunghawicalah rawca cat leih. Jezreel tami Naboth e misur teh kai ni na poe han telah ati.
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.
Hatdawkvah, Ahab e min lahoi ca a thut teh, kuthrawt hoi a dei teh, ca hah Naboth a onae kho dawk ahni hoi rei kaawm e kacuenaw hoi bawinaw koe a patawn.
9 She wrote in the letters, saying, "Proclaim a fast, and set Naboth on high among the people.
Rawcahainae kong oung nateh, Naboth hah tami pueng e hmalah barinae hmuen koe tahung naseh.
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."
Tamikayon kahni touh ahmalah tahung sak vaiteh, Cathut hoi siangpahrang na pahnawt telah yon kapenkung lah sak awh, telah atipouh.
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.
A onae khocanaw, a onae kho dawk e kaawm e kacuenaw hoi bawinaw ni Jezebel ni a thut e ca patetlah a sak awh.
12 They proclaimed a fast, and set Naboth on high among the people.
Rawcahainae kong hah a pathang awh teh, tamipueng thung dawk hoi Naboth teh hmalah a tahung sak awh.
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.
Tamikayon kahni touh a hmalah a tahung teh, tamikayon roi ni tami pueng e hmalah, Naboth ni Cathut hoi siangpahrang a pahnawt telah Naboth hah yon a pen roi. Hottelah, kho thung hoi a sin awh e talung hoi kadout lah a dêi awh.
14 Then they sent to Jezebel, saying, "Naboth has been stoned, and is dead."
Hatdawkvah, Naboth teh talung hoi kadout lah a dêi awh teh a due toe telah Jezebel koe kamthang a thaisak awh.
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."
Jezebel ni Naboth teh talung hoi kadout lah a dêi awh toe tie a panue toteh, Ahab koevah, hettelah atipouh. Thaw nateh, Jezreel tami Naboth e misur takha, tangka lah yo hane a pasoung hoeh e hah lat leih. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Naboth teh hring hoeh toe, a due toe telah atipouh.
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.
Ahab ni Naboth a due toe tie a thai navah, Jezreel tami Naboth e misur takha dawk cei vaiteh, la hanelah Ahab teh a kamthaw.
17 The word of YHWH came to Elijah the Tishbite, saying,
Hahoi, BAWIPA e lawk hah Tishbit tami Elijah koevah a pha.
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.
Thaw nateh, Samaria kho kaawm e Isarel siangpahrang Ahab kâhmo hanelah cet. Ahni teh Naboth e misur takha la hanelah a cei teh haw vah ao.
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."'"
Ahni koevah, BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei. Uinaw ni Naboth e thi a palemnae hmuen dawk nange thi hai uinaw ni a palem van han telah na ti pouh han telah ati.
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.
Ahab ni Elijah koevah, kâhmo roi toe khe, ka taran telah atipouh. Ahni ni Oe kâhmo roi toe. Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA e hmaitung vah hawihoehnae sak hanlah namahoima na kâyo hah te telah atipouh.
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.
Khenhaw! nange lathueng vah, rawknae ka pha sak han. Koung na raphoe awh han. Ahab totouh hoi na ca catounnaw pueng, Isarel ram dawk tami ka hlout thoseh, ka hlout hoeh thoseh, koung ka pâmit han.
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.'"
Nang ni ka lungkhueknae na pahrue teh, Isarelnaw yonnae na sak sak dawkvah, Nebat capa Jeroboam imthungkhu hoi Ahijah capa Baasha imthungkhu patetlah na imthungkhunaw hai ka o sak han telah ati.
23 YHWH also spoke of Jezebel, saying, "The dogs shall eat Jezebel in the district of Jezreel.
BAWIPA ni Jezebel e kong hai a dei toe. Jezreel kalupnae koe uinaw ni Jezebel heh a ca han.
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 imthungkhu dawk hoi khopui dawk kadout e hah uinaw ni a ca vaiteh, kahrawng kadout e pueng teh kalvan e tava ni a ca han telah 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.
A yu Jezebel ni a tacuek teh BAWIPA e mithmu vah, hawihoehnae sak hanlah, ka kâyawt e Ahab patet e tami apihai awm hoeh.
26 He did very abominably in following idols, according to all that the Amorites did, whom YHWH cast out before the children of Israel.
BAWIPA ni Isarelnaw koehoi a pâlei e Amor taminaw e sak e patetlah. meikaphawk hah bawk hoi panuettho e hnonaw hah ouk a sak awh.
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.
Ahab ni hote lawk a thai toteh, a hni a phi teh, burihni hah a kâkhu, rawca a hai teh rawca burihni kâkhu hoi a i teh paiyaica hoi a kâroe.
28 The word of YHWH came to Elijah the Tishbite, saying,
Hahoi, BAWIPA e lawk teh Tishbit tami Elijah koevah a pha.
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."
Ka hmalah Ahab a kârahnoumnae hah na hmu maw. Ka hmalah a kârahnoum dawkvah, ahnie se nateh hawihoehnae ka phat sak mahoeh. A capa se nah a imthungkhu dawk hawihoehnae ka pha sak han telah ati.
