2 Samuel 16
1 Now when David was a little past the top, look, Ziba the servant of Mippibaal met him with a couple of donkeys saddled, and on them two hundred loaves of bread, a hundred bunches of raisins, a hundred of summer fruits, and a container of wine.
David loh som te hawt a poeng vaengah Mephibosheth kah tueihyoeih Ziba loh, laak rhoi te a khih tih vaidam hluem yahnih, misur rhae yakhat, khohal caak yakhat, misur khap at neh anih tarha han doe.
2 And the king said to Ziba, "Why did you bring these things?" And Ziba replied, "The donkeys are for the king's household to ride on, and the bread and summer fruit for the young men to eat, and the wine is for those who get exhausted in the desert."
Manghai loh Ziba te, “Na taengkah rhoek he balae he?” a ti nah. Ziba loh, “Laak rhoi te manghai cako loh a ngol nah ham, vaidam, vaidam neh khohal caak he camoe rhoek loh a caak ham, mishur he khosoek kah lamlum rhoek loh a ok ham,” a ti nah.
3 Then the king said, "Where is your master's son?" Ziba said to the king, "Look, he is staying in Jerusalem, for he said, 'Today the children of Israel will restore to me the kingdom of my father.'"
Manghai loh, “Na boei kah a capa ta?,” a ti nah hatah Ziba loh, “Manghai te, 'Tihnin ah a pa kah ram he Israel imkhui, kamah taengla ham mael pawn ni,’ a ti tih Jerusalem ah om ta ke,” a ti nah.
4 Then the king said to Ziba, "Look, all that pertains to Mippibaal is yours." Ziba said, "I humbly bow. May I find favor in the sight of my lord the king."
Te phoeiah manghai loh Ziba te, “Mephibosheth taengkah aka om carhui tah nang ham coeng ni,” a ti nah. Te dongah Ziba loh, “Ka boei manghai kah na mikhmuh ah mikdaithen ka dang ham ni ka bakop coeng,” a ti.
5 And when king David reached Bahurim, now look, a man of the family of the house of Saul came out, whose name was Shimei the son of Gera. He came out and cursed continuously as he approached.
Manghai David loh Bahurim a pha vaengah tah Saul imkhui neh a huiko khui lamkah hlang pakhat lawt ha thoeng. Anih ming tah Gera capa Shimei tih a thoeng la, a thoeng neh thae a phoei.
6 And he threw stones at David and at all his servants, and all the people and all the soldiers at his right hand and at his left.
David neh manghai David kah sal rhoek boeih te lungto neh a dae. Te vaengah pilnam boeih neh hlangrhalh boeih loh banvoei, bantang ah om dae ta.
7 And Shimei said as he cursed, "Get out, get out, you man of blood, and worthless man.
Shimei loh anih te kosi a sah thil vaengah, “Cet, cet, hlang thii aka hawk neh hlang muen.
8 YHWH has returned on you all the blood of the house of Saul, in whose place you have reigned, and YHWH has given the kingdom into the hand of your son Absalom. And look, your evil is upon you, because you are a man of bloodshed."
Saul imkhui kah a thii boeih te BOEIPA loh nangmah soah n'thuung coeng. Anih yueng la na manghai coeng dae ram he BOEIPA loh na capa Absalom kut ah a paek coeng. Na hlang thii dongah namah kah yoethae khuila na kun coeng te,” a ti nah.
9 Then Abishai the son of Zeruiah said to the king, "Why should this dead dog curse my lord the king? Please let me go over and take off his head."
Te vaengah Zeruiah capa Abishai loh manghai taengah, “Balae tih ui duek loh thae a phoei van he, ka boeipa manghai nang ka paan saeh lamtah a lu ka tloek pa pawn aya?,” a ti nah.
10 The king said, "What have I to do with you, you sons of Zeruiah? Because he curses, and because YHWH has said to him, 'Curse David;' who then shall say, 'Why have you done so?'"
Tedae manghai loh, “Kai neh nangmih Zeruiah koca rhoek tah mebang tloe lae? BOEIPA loh anih taengah, 'David ke thaephoei thil,” a ti nah atah thaephoei mai saeh saw. Te dongah, 'He he ba ham lae na saii,’ u long a ti nah voel eh,” a ti nah.
11 Then David said to Abishai and to all his servants, "Look, my son who came from my body seeks my life. So also now this Benjamite. Leave him alone and let him curse, for YHWH has told him to.
David loh Abishai neh a sal rhoek boeih taengah, “Ka ko khui lamloh aka thoeng, ka capa long pataeng ka hinglu he a toem atah Benjamin koca long aisat te, anih te om ngawn saeh lamtah BOEIPA loh amah taengah a thui pah coeng dongah thaephoei ngawn saeh.
12 Perhaps YHWH will look on my affliction and return good to me for his cursing today."
Ka mikhmuh kah ka thaesainah he BOEIPA loh a hmuh khaming. Tihnin ah anih kah rhunkhuennah yuengla BOEIPA loh kai hamla a then neh ham mael bitni,” a ti nah.
13 So David and his men went by the way; and Shimei went along on the hillside opposite him, and cursed as he went, threw stones at his flank, and threw dirt.
Te daengah David neh a hlang rhoek loh longpuei te a paan uh. Shimei te a khaepdan kah tlang hlaep ah a caeh vaengah khaw a caeh doela thae a phoei pueng. Amah kah voeivang ah lungto a dong tih laipi khaw a phaeh.
14 Now the king and all his people arrived weary at the Jordan, and he refreshed himself there.
Manghai neh a taengkah pilnam boeih khaw buhmueh rhathih la ha pawk tih pahoi duem uh.
15 Now Absalom and all the men of Israel arrived in Jerusalem, and Ahithophel was with him.
Te vaengah Absalom neh Israel hlang pilnam boeih te Jerusalem la pawk uh tih anih te Ahithophel loh a puei.
16 And it came about when David's friend Hushai the Archite came to Absalom, that Hushai said to Absalom, "Long live the king. Long live the king."
David kah olrhoep Arkii Hushai te Absalom taengla kun. Te phoeiah Hushai loh Absalom te, “Manghai tah hing pai saeh, manghai tah hing pai saeh,” a ti.
17 So Absalom said to Hushai, "Is this your loyalty to your friend? Why did you not go with your friend?"
Tedae Absalom loh Hushai te, “Na hui te na sitlohnah coeng atah balae tih na hui taengah na caeh pawh,” a ti nah.
18 Then Hushai said to Absalom, "No, but whom YHWH and this people and all the men of Israel have chosen, his will I belong, and with him I will stay.
Hushai loh Absalom taengah, “Moenih, u khaw BOEIPA neh pilnam loh, Israel ca boeih loh a tuek atah, anih hut la ka om vetih, a taengah kho ka sak ni ta.
19 Again, whom should I serve? Shouldn't I serve in the presence of his son? As I have served in your father's presence, so will I be in your presence."
U taengah nim ka thohtat bal eh? Na pa mikhmuh ah ka thohtat bangla a capa mikhmuh ah moenih a? Te dongah namah mikhmuh ah ni ka om eh?,” a ti nah.
20 Then Absalom said to Ahithophel, "Give your counsel. What should we do?"
Te dongah Absalom loh Ahithophel taengah, “Ka saii uh ham te na cilsuep pae uh laeh,” a ti nah.
21 Ahithophel said to Absalom, "Go in to your father's secondary wives, that he has left to care for the palace. Then all Israel will hear that you have made yourself a stench to your father. Then those on your side will be motivated to support you."
Tedae Ahithophel loh Absalom te, “Im tawt la a paih na pa kah yula rhoek te kun thil. Na pa kah borhim te Israel boeih loh ya saeh lamtah namah taengkah aka om hlang boeih kah a kut loh n'duel saeh,” a ti nah.
22 So they set up a tent for Absalom on the roof, and Absalom went in to his father's secondary wives in the sight of all Israel.
Absalom ham te imphu ah dap a tuk pauh. Absalom loh Israel tom kah mikhmuh ah a napa kah yula rhoek te a kun thil.
23 Now in those days the counsel that Ahithophel gave was as if one inquired of the word of God. So was all the counsel of Ahithophel both to David and to Absalom.
Te vaeng tue ah tah Ahithophel kah cilsuep a paek te Pathen kah olka aka dawt hlang banglam ni a om coeng. David taeng neh Absalom taengkah aka om te Ahithophel kah cilsuep boeih ni.
