< 1 Samuel 7 >
1 Then came the men of Kiriath-jearim and fetched up the ark of Yahweh, and brought it into the house of Abinadab, in the hill, —and, Eleazar his son, hallowed they, to guard the ark of Yahweh.
Kiriath Jearim khocanaw a tho awh teh, BAWIPA e thingkong hah a ceikhai awh. Mon e Abinadab im a kâenkhai awh teh, thingkong ka khenyawn hanelah a capa Eleazar hah a kamthoung sak awh.
2 And so it was, that, from the day the ark came to dwell in Kiriath-jearim, the days multiplied, and became twenty years, —and all the house of Israel went mourning after Yahweh.
Kiriath Jearim kho dawk thingkong ao nathung kum 20 touh a ro toe. Isarel phunnaw teh BAWIPA dawk pouk dounnae a tawn awh.
3 And Samuel spake unto all the house of Israel, saying, If, with all your heart, ye are returning unto Yahweh, then put away the gods of the foreigner out of your midst, and the Ashtoreths—and firmly set your heart towards Yahweh, and serve him, alone, that he may deliver you out of the hand of the Philistines.
Samuel ni Isarel miphun pueng koe BAWIPA koe lah lungthin abuemlah bout na ban awh pawiteh, nangmouh rahak ram alouke cathutnaw hoi Ashtaroth cathut hah tâkhawng awh nateh BAWIPA dawk na lungthin pen awh. BAWIPA e thaw ma tawk awh. Hottelah na sak awh pawiteh Filistinnaw e kut dawk hoi nangmouh na rungngang han telah a ti.
4 So the sons of Israel put away the Baals, and the Ashtoreths, —and served Yahweh, alone.
Hatdawkvah, Isarel miphunnaw ni Baal cathut Ashtaroth hah a pahnawt awh teh, BAWIPA e thaw hah a tawk awh.
5 And Samuel said, Gather all Israel unto Mizpah, —that I may pray for you, unto Yahweh.
Samuel ni Mizpah kho dawk Isarel miphun pueng hah kamkhueng sak nateh nangmouh hanelah BAWIPA koe ka ratoum han telah a ti.
6 So they gathered themselves unto Mizpah, and drew water, and poured it out before Yahweh, and fasted on that day, and said, there, We have sinned against Yahweh. And Samuel judged the sons of Israel in Mizpah.
Ahnimouh teh Mizpah kho a kamkhueng awh teh tui a do awh teh, BAWIPA e hmalah a rabawk awh. Hote hnin nah rawca a hai awh teh, maimouh ni BAWIPA koe yonnae sak awh toe telah ati awh. Samuel ni Mizpah khovah Isarelnaw hah lawk a ceng.
7 And, when the Philistines heard that the sons of Israel had gathered themselves together unto Mizpah, the lords of the Philistines went up against Israel, —and, when the sons of Israel heard it, they shrank with fear, from the face of the Philistines.
Isarelnaw hah Mizpah kho dawk a kamkhueng awh e Filistinnaw ni a thai awh toteh, Filistin siangpahrangnaw teh Isarelnaw tuk hanelah a cei awh. Hote a kong hah Isarelnaw ni a thai awh toteh Filistinnaw a taki awh.
8 And the sons of Israel said unto Samuel, Do not turn in silence from us, from making outcry unto Yahweh our God, —that he would save us out of the hand of the Philistines.
Isarelnaw ni Samuel koe kaimanaw hah Filistinnaw e kut dawk hoi na rungngang thai nahan kaimae BAWIPA Cathut koe kâhat laipalah ratoum loe atipouh awh.
9 So Samuel took one sucking lamb, and offered it up, as an entire ascending-sacrifice unto Yahweh, —and Samuel made outcry unto Yahweh, for Israel, and Yahweh answered him.
Samuel ni sanu ka net lahun e tuca buet touh a la teh, BAWIPA koe abuemlahoi hmaisawi thuengnae a poe teh, Isarelnaw hanelah BAWIPA koe ratoum pouh teh, BAWIPA ni a thai pouh.
10 And, when Samuel was offering up the ascending-sacrifice, the Philistines, drew near to fight against Israel, —but Yahweh thundered with a great noise throughout that day, over the Philistines, and confused them, and they were smitten before Israel.
Samuel ni hmaisawi thuengnae a sak lahun nah Filistinnaw ni Isarelnaw tuk hanelah rek a hnai awh. Hatei BAWIPA ni Filistinnaw koe kho puenghoi a parit sak teh Isarelnaw e hmaitung taran a sung awh.
11 And the men of Israel went forth out of Mizpah, and pursued the Philistines, —and smote them as far as under Beth-car.
Isarelnaw hah Mizpah kho hoi a tâco awh teh Bethkhar kho rahim totouh a pâlei awh teh Filistinnaw a thei awh.
12 And Samuel took a certain stone, and set it between Mizpah and Yeshanah, and called the name thereof Eben-ezer, —and said, Hitherto, hath Yahweh helped us.
Samuel ni talung buet touh a la teh, Mizpah kho hoi Shem kho rahak dawk a ung hnukkhu, BAWIPA ni maimouh sahnin totouh na kabawp awh toe telah a dei teh, hote talung teh Ebenezer telah min a poe.
13 So the Philistines were subdued, and, no more, came within the boundary of Israel, —and the hand of Yahweh was against the Philistines, all the days of Samuel.
Filistinnaw teh a sung awh. Isarelnaw e ram dawk bout tho awh hoeh toe. Samuel a hring na thung pueng Filistinnaw e lathueng BAWIPA e a kut a pha sak.
14 And the cities which the Philistines had taken from Israel were restored to Israel, from Ekron even as far as Gath; even the boundaries thereof, did Israel rescue out of the hand of the Philistines, —thus came there to be peace between Israel and the Amorites.
Filistinnaw ni Isarelnaw e kho a la e Ekron kho hoi kamtawng teh Gath kho totouh Isarelnaw bout a poe awh teh a ram hah Isarelnaw ni Filistinnaw e kut dawk hoi bout a lawp awh teh, Isarelnaw hoi Amornaw hanelah roumnae a sak awh.
15 And Samuel judged Israel, all the days of his life.
Samuel ni a hring nathung pueng Isarel a uk.
16 And he used to take his journey, from year to year, and go round to Bethel, and Gilgal, and Mizpah, —and used to judge Israel, at all these places.
Kumtangkuem ahni ni Bethel hoi Gilgal kho Mizpah khonaw a rip hnukkhu hote khopuinaw thung Isarelnaw hah a uk.
17 And, his returning, was to Ramah, for, there, was his house, and, there, judged he Israel, —so he built there an altar unto Yahweh.
Hathnukkhu hoi a onae im kaawm e kho Ramah vah a ban. Hote khothung vah Isarelnaw lawk a ceng teh BAWIPA hanelah hote hmuen koe thuengnae khoungroe a sak.
