1 Samuel 22
1 David therefore departed thence, and escaped, into the cave of Adullam, —and, when his brethren and all the household of his father heard it, they went down unto him, thither.
Devit ni hote hmuen koehoi tâco takhai teh Adullam talung koevah a yawng. A hmaunawngha hoi a na pa imthungnaw ni a thai awh nah ahni koe a cei awh.
2 And there gathered themselves unto him—every one that was in distress, and every one that had a creditor, and every one embittered in soul, and he came to be over them as a prince, —and there were with him, about four hundred men.
Ka rucat e tami, lai ka tawn e, lungthin reithai poung hoi kakhangnaw ahni koe a kamkhueng awh teh, Devit teh ahnimouh kahrawikung lah ao. Tami 400 tabang hoi rei ao awh.
3 And David departed thence, to Mizpah of Moab, —and said unto the king of Moab, I pray thee, let my father and my mother dwell with you, until that I know what God will do for me.
Devit teh hote hmuen koehoi, Moab ram Mizpeh kho lah a cei teh, Moab siangpahrang koe Cathut ni kaimouh hanlah bangmaw a sak han tie kai ni ka panue nahan atueng totouh, ka manu ka napanaw nang koevah o nahan kâ na poe lah atipouh.
4 So he set them before the king of Moab, —and they dwelt with him, all the days that David was in the fortress.
Ahnimouh ni Moab e hmalah vah a thokhai awh, Devit rapanim thung ao nathung ahni koe ao van.
5 Then said Gad the prophet unto David—Thou must not abide in the fortress, go and get thee into the land of Judah. So David departed, and entered the forest of Hereth.
Profet Gad ni Devit koe rapainim thung awm hanh. Tâcawt nateh Judah ram lah cet atipouh. Hottelah, Devit ni a thaw teh, Hereth ratu thung a kâen.
6 And, when Saul heard that David was discovered, and the men that were with him—Saul, being seated in Gibeah under the tamarisk-tree in Ramah, with his spear in his hand, and all his servants stationed by him, —
Sawl ni Devit hoi a sannaw hah a hmu awh tie a thai. Sawl teh Gibeah e ram vah kho vah bengkeng thing rahim a tahroe hoi a tahung teh, a tengpam vah a sannaw a kangdue sak.
7 then said Saul unto his servants who were stationed by him—Hear, I pray you, ye Benjamites! What! even to all of you, will the son of Jesse give fields and vineyards? All of you, will he appoint to be princes of thousands, and princes of hundreds?
Sawl ni a tengpam e a sannaw koevah nangmanaw Benjamin taminaw thai awh haw. Jesi capa ni law hoi misur takhanaw na poe han namaw, nangmouh pueng ransa 1,000 touh ukkung hoi 100 touh ukkung lah na ta awh han namaw.
8 That ye have conspired, all of you, against me, and there is none to uncover mine ear as to the covenanting of my son with the son of Jesse? And none from among you that taketh pity upon me, and that uncovereth mine ear [to this], —that, mine own son, hath stirred up, my servants, against me, to lie in wait, as at this day?
Nangmouh abuemlahoi kai koe lah taran na thaw awh maw. Ka capa teh Jesi e capa hoi lawk a kam roi nah, kai koe buet touh ni hai na dei pouh hoeh. Sahnin e patetlah ka thaw katawknaw ni na pawp hanlah ka capa ni kai na taran e kai koe api buet touh ni hai na dei awh hoeh. Kai hanelah api buet touh hai na lungmathout awh hoeh atipouh.
9 Then answered Doeg the Edomite—he, being stationed near the servants of Saul—and said, —I saw the son of Jesse coming into Nob, unto Ahimelech son of Ahitub;
Sawl e a thaw katawknaw hoi rei ka kang dout e Edom miphun dueng ni a dei e teh, Jesi capa teh Nob kho Ahitub e capa vaihma Ahimelek koe a tho e kai ni ka hmu.
10 Then enquired he for him of Yahweh, Provisions also, gave he unto him, —and, the sword of Goliath the Philistine, gave he unto him.
Ahni ni BAWIPA koe pouknae a hei pouh, ca hanelah a poe teh Filistin tami Goliath e tahloi hai a poe telah ati.
11 Then the king sent to call Ahimelech, son of Ahitub, the priest, and all the house of his father—the priests, who were in Nob, —and they came, all of them, unto the king.
Siangpahrang ni Ahitub capa vaihma Ahimelek hoi a na pa im thung Nob kho e vaihma pueng a kaw sak teh, siangpahrang koe koung a tho awh.
12 And Saul said, Hear, I pray thee, thou son of Ahitub! And he said—Behold me! my lord.
Sawl ni, nang Ahitub capa thai haw telah ati, ahni ni apa hivah ka o atipouh.
13 And Saul said unto him, Wherefore have ye conspired against me, thou, and the son of Jesse, —in that thou gavest him bread and a sword, and didst enquire for him of God, that he might rise up against me, that he might lie in wait, as at this day?
Sawl ni ahni koe sahnin vah ahmoun e boiboe lah kai na taran teh, na ka pawm hanelah vaiyei hoi tahloi hah na poe teh, BAWIPA koe pouknae hei pouh hane bang dawk hah namaw nang hoi Jesi capa ni na taran roi vaw telah ati.
14 Then Ahimelech answered the king, and said, —But who, among all thy servants, like David, is, faithful, being son-in-law to the king, and, cometh near to have audience with thee, and is, honoured in thy household?
Ahimelek ni siangpahrang lawk a pathung teh, siangpahrang cava, pouknae na hei ka tang e, na imthung dawk bari han kamcu Devit patetlah yuemkamcu e na sannaw dawk apimaw kaawm.
15 Did I, that day, begin to enquire for him of God? Far from me! Let not the king impute to his servant such a thing, nor to any of the household of my father, for thy servant knoweth nothing of all this, less or more.
Sahnin Cathut ka bawknae kamtawngnae maw, nahoeh. Siangpahrang ni teh a san thoseh apa imthungnaw thoseh, na pakung rumram hanh naseh, bangkongtetpawiteh, na sannaw ni hete kong heh banghai ka panuek hoeh telah ati.
16 And the king said: Thou shalt, die, Ahimelech, —thou and all the household of thy father.
Siangpahrang ni Ahimelek nama hoi na pa imthungnaw hoi na due awh roeroe han telah atipouh.
17 And the king said unto the runners that were stationed by him—Turn ye round and put to death the priests of Yahweh, because, their hand also, is with David, and because they knew that he was, in flight, and unveiled not mine ear. But the servants of the king were not willing to thrust forth their hand, to fall upon the priests of Yahweh.
Siangpahrang ni a teng kangdout e a ransa koevah, kamlang sin awh nateh, BAWIPA e vaihma hah thet awh, bangkongtetpawiteh, Devit koe lah kampang teh a kâran tie a panue awh ei kai koe dei awh hoeh telah ati, hatei a sannaw ni BAWIPA e vaihma hem hanelah a kut pho ngai hoeh.
18 Then said the king to Doeg, Turn, thou, and fall upon the priests. So Doeg the Edomite turned, and, himself, fell upon the priests, and put to death, that day, four score and five men bearing an ephod of linen;
Siangpahrang ni Doeg koevah, nangmouh ni kamlang sin nateh, vaihma hah thet telah ati. Edom teh Doeg ni a kamlang sin teh a hem. Hot hnin navah vaihma angkidung ka kho e tami 85 a thei awh.
19 Nob also, the city of the priests, smote he with the edge of the sword, both men and women, children and sucklings, —and oxen and asses and sheep, with the edge of the sword.
Nob vaihma kho teh tahloi hoi a tuk awh teh napui tongpa camo sanu ka net lahun totouh maito thoseh, la thoseh, tu thoseh tahloi hoi be a thei.
20 But there escaped one son of Ahimelech, son of Ahitub, whose, name, was Abiathar, —and he fled after David.
Ahitub capa Ahimelek capanaw thung e tami buet touh a min Abiathar teh a hlout. Devit koevah a yawng.
21 So Abiathar told David, —that Saul had slain the priests of Yahweh.
Abiathar ni Sawl ni BAWIPA vaihmanaw a thei e konglam Devit koe a dei pouh.
22 Then said David to Abiathar—I knew, that day, when Doeg the Edomite was, there, that he would, surely tell, Saul. I, am chargeable with all the lives of the house of thy father.
Devit ni Abiathar koevah Edom tami Doeg haw vah kaawm e roeroe ni Sawl koe a dei pouh han tie ka panue tangcoung e doeh toe. Na pa imthungnaw teh kai kecu dawk kadout a e doeh.
23 Abide with me! do not fear, for, whoso seeketh my life, seeketh thy life, —for, in safeguard, shall thou be, with me.
Kai koe awm nateh, taket hanh, bangkongtetpawiteh kai thei han ka kâcai e ni nang hai thei han a kâcai van han. Hatei kai koe na lungmawng han telah ati.
