< 2 Samuel 20 >
1 Now, in that place, there happened to be an abandoned man, whose name, was Sheba son of Bichri, a man of Benjamin, —so he blew a horn, and said—We have no share in David, Nor inheritance have we in the son of Jesse, Every man to his home, O Israel!
Hiche phatlai hin pan nabei mikhat ana um'in amapa chu amin Sheba akiti, ama hi apa min Bicri ahin, Benjamin phunga mi ahiye; Chule Sheba kitipa hin saki pengkul amut gingin lhang asamin aseitai, “David koma eihon chan ding inei pouvin, Jesse chapa koma goulo ding inei pouve’ Vo Israel mite, nangma nangma ponbuh kijot cheh tauvin,” ati.
2 Then went up all the men of Israel from following David, to follow Sheba son of Bichri, —but, the men of Judah, clave unto their king, from the Jordan, even as far as Jerusalem.
Hichejeh chun Israel miten abonchauvin David adalha soh hel tauvin, Bicri chapa Sheba nung ajui cheh tauve; ahivangin Judah miten alengpao chu lunglut tah in Jordan vadunga pat Jerusalem geiyin ajui lut peh tauvin ahi.
3 And David entered into his own house, in Jerusalem, and the king took the ten women, the concubines whom he had left to keep the house, and put them in ward, and sustained them, but, unto them, went he not in, —so they were shut up until the day of their death, in lifelong widowhood.
David chu Jerusalema ahung in ain ahung lhungtai, chuin lengpan in ngah dinga adalhah thaikem numei som ho chu abonchan aman khom soh keiyin in khat a akoikhom in, chule hiche in chu mi angah ding sepai akoiyin, neh le chah vang apenan, amaho hi avil tapon, aluppi tapoi. Hijeh chun amaho hi athi ni geiyuvin cha hing louvin aumsohkeiyun, meithai bangin aumsoh keitauve.
4 Then said the king unto Amasa, Assemble me the men of Judah, within three days, —and, thou, here, take thy stand!
Hichun lengpan Amasa koma aseipeh in, “Nithum sungin Judah phunga mite abonchan kou khom soh keiyin lang, nangma tah jeng jong hikoma hin hung kikhomuvin,” ati.
5 So Amasa went, to assemble Judah, —but he tarried beyond the fixed time, which he had appointed him.
Hijeh chun Amasa jong Judah mite kou dingin akondoh tai; Ahinla ama dinga aphat kitep peh sangnga tamjo ahin la tan ahi.
6 Then said David unto Abishai, Now, shall Sheba son of Bichri, do us more harm than Absolom, —thou, take the servants of thy lord, and pursue him, lest he have got him into fortified cities, and so have escaped our eye.
Chuphat’in David chun Abishai koma chun aseiyin, “Tua hi Sheba kitipa Bicri chapa khun Absalomin eibol nau sanga khohjoa eibol diu ahi; nangman napu lhacha sepaite khu kipuiyin lang anung delpeh in lang, gamantan achuti louva ahileh ama in kulpi kikaikhum khopi phabep akisah doh a eiho eisuh genthei diu ahi,” ati.
7 Then went out after him—the men of Joab, and the Cherethites and the Pelethites, and all the mighty men, —and they went out from Jerusalem, to pursue Sheba son of Bichri.
Abishai nung juiyin Joab jong Chereth mite jong, Peleth miho jong, chule mihat jouse jong abonchan akitol soh keiyuvin ahi. Chule amaho hi Jerusalem khopia konin Bicri chapa Sheba nung del dingin akondoh tauve.
8 When, they, were by the great stone which is in Gibeon, Amasa, had arrived before them. Now, Joab, was girded about with his war-coat as his upper garment, and, over it, a girdle with a sword, fastened upon his loins, in the sheath thereof, and, it, came out and fell.
Amaho hi Gibeon khopia songpi lentah phung ahung geiyuvin Amasa jong amaho lamto dingin ahung tai. Hichun Joab hi sepai vonin akivonin, chule akongjanga chun konggah khat hin chemjam apaiyin akipoh in ahi; amasang lam’uva Amasa chibei bol din achepheiyin, hichun ahung kibalhun achemjam chu ahungkithol doh paitan ahi.
9 Then said Joab unto Amasa, Art thou, well, my brother? And Joab took Amasa by the beard with his right hand, to kiss him.
Hichun Joab hin Amasa koma hitin aseiye, “Sopi nadam dam hinam? tin adongin, hiti chun Joab hin Amasa chu akhut jetlam in amanin abengmul chun atuh chah jenge abeng achop ding bangin.
10 Amasa not heeding the sword that was in the hand of Joab, he smote him therewith in the belly, and shed out his bowels to the ground, and [struck] him not again, and he died. So, Joab and Abishai his brother, pursued Sheba son of Bichri.
Hichea hi Amasa hin Joab in akhut veilam a chemjam akidop lam chu anahet lou ahiye; hiti hin Joab chun Amasa chua oipoh asutpih in; hichun avela sat kit louhel’in khatvei she she chun ama jong athidel jengin ahi. Chujouvin Joab le asopipa Abishai chun Bicri chapa Sheba nung chu adel pai pai tauve.
11 Now, a man, stood over him, of the young men of Joab, —and said—Whosoever is well pleased with Joab, and whosoever pertaineth to David, let him follow Joab.
Chule Joab sepaite lah a mi khat chu Amasa long phunga aga dingin hitin aseiye, “Koi koi hijongle Joab panpia David dinga pang jouse chun Joab nung jui cheh hen,” ati.
12 But, Amasa, was wallowing in blood, in the midst of the highway, —and, when the man saw that all the people stood still, he moved Amasa, out of the highway into the field, and cast over him a garment, as soon as he saw that every man that came up to him stood still.
Hichun Amasa vang chu lamlen kim laitah a athisan lah a akisai saiyin alumden tai. Lampia hung mi jouse chun amudoh tengule ading cheh jiuvin, hijeh chun alongkom a dingpa chun miho jouse agahdin ji jeh u chun Amasa long chu akaimangin gamlah a apolut in pon akhu khumtan ahi.
13 When he had removed him out of the highway, every man passed on, after Joab, to pursue Sheba son of Bichri.
Chuin Amasa chu lamlen lailunga kona akai mang phat chun mipi sepai jouse jong chu Joab nung juiya Bicri chapa Sheba nung del dingin ache pai pai jeng tauve.
14 And he passed on throughout all the tribes of Israel, unto Abel and unto Beth-maachah, and all the Berites, —and they were called together, and came in, yea and followed him.
Sheba hin Israel mite phung tin anakhol soh keiyin, Bethema’acah gam'a Abel chan gei anajot man in ahi; hijeh chun Bicri mite jouse akikhom’uvin ama nung ajui soh hel tauve.
15 So they came, and laid siege against him, in Abel, Beth-maachah, and they cast up a mound against the city, so that it stood within a rampart, —and, all the people who were with Joab, were battering the wall to throw it down.
Hichun Joab to pang khom mite chu abonchan ahunguvin Bethma’acah gam'a Abel khoa chun Sheba aga’um tauve. Khopi um nan pal akaiyuvin, chule khopi pal chutoh kingat ton leipal chu akikhang doh jenge; Chuin amahon khopi pal chu phetjal dingin agouvin avojal pantauve.
16 Then cried a wise woman out of the city, —Hear ye! hear ye! I pray you, say unto Joab, Come near hither, and let me speak unto thee.
Hichun khopi sung langa konin numei miching tah khat hinmi ahinkouvin, “Ngaiyuvin, ngaiyuvin, keiman Joab chu kaki houpithei na dingin hinsei peh’uvin lang hilai muna hin hung hen, ati hintiuvin,” ahinti.
17 So he came near unto her, and the woman said, —Art thou Joab? And he said, —I am. And she said unto him, —Hear thou the words of thy handmaid. And he said, I do hear.
Hiphat chun Joab jong chu amanu koma chun ahungin ahileh, numeinu chun hitin aseipeh tai, “Nangma Jo’b nahim? atia ahileh aman jong adonbutin, “Ka hinai,” ati. Hichun numeinu jong chun Joab koma chun asei kit’in, “Nasohnu keima thusei ding hohi ngai temin,” atia ahileh; Joab in jong adonbut’in, “Kangai peh nai,” ati.
18 Then spake she, saying, —They, used to speak, in former times, saying, Enquire, in Abel! And, so, they ended it.
Hichun numei nun jong aseitai, Masanga gol lui laiyin tehse hon hitin ana sei uve, Abel khoa mi bou kidong ding ahi,’ tin aseiyiuve; hiti hin ipi thu hijong leh ana seichai jiuve.
19 I, am of the peaceable among the faithful in Israel, —thou, art seeking to put to death a city, and a mother in Israel, wherefore wouldst thou swallow up the inheritance of Yahweh?
Hitia chu keima jong hi Israel mite lah a cham na bol ji le kitah taha hinkho mangmi khat chu kahi; hijeh chun tun nangman Israel chate din penna khopikhat hi thagamdingin nahol’e; ibola nangman Pakai goulo athilkeo hi hitia hi suh mang jeng ding nati ham?” ati.
20 Then answered Joab and said, —Far be it! far be it from me! I will neither swallow up nor lay waste.
Hichun Joab jong chun adonbut’in, “Keiman itih hijong leh khopi kasuh mang louhel ding ahi ai!
21 Not so, is the matter! but, a man of the hill country of Ephraim, Sheba son of Bichri, his name, hath lifted up his hand against the king, even against David, give up him alone, and I will depart from the city. And the woman said unto Joab, Lo! his head, shall be cast unto thee, through the wall.
Nasei chu adih poi, ahin Ephraim gam'a thinglhang mi Bicri kitipa chapa khat amin Sheba kitipa chun David lengpa dou nan akhut alamtai; ama chu hinpe doh jenguvin, chutileh keima khopia kona hi kaki nungle jeng ding ahi,” ati. Chuphat’in numeinu jong chun adonbut paiyin, Joab koma chun aseitai, “Vetan, naseipa chu palvuma aluchang tansa hung kileh lha ding nakoma hung chu ding ahi,” atipeh-e.
22 So the woman came unto all the people in her wisdom, and they cut off the head of Sheba son of Bichri, and cast it out unto Joab. And he blew with a horn, and they dispersed themselves from the city, every man to his home; but, Joab, returned to Jerusalem unto the king.
Numeinu chu alungthima achihna bang dungjuiyin khopi sunga anung chen mipi jouse koma chun hitin aga seitai. Chuin mihon Bicri chapa Sheba chu alu atanuvin, Joab koma chun agasep lut tauve. Chuphat in Joab chun saki pengkul chu amut paiyin, khopia kon chun akikhen cheh soh keiyun, mi jouse chu ama ama in cheh a ache tauve. Joab vang chu Jerusalema lengpa koma dingin ahung kile kit tai.
23 And, Joab, was [restored] unto all the army of Israel, —And, Benaiah, son of Jehoiada, was over the Cherethites and over the Pelethites,
Hichun Joab kitipa hi Israel chate pumpi dinga gal lamkai lenpen chule sepai jouse chunga vaipo ahin, Jehoiada chapa Benaiah chu Chereth mite leh Peleth mite sepai ho lamkai vaipon apangin;
24 And, Adoniram, was over the tribute, —And, Jehoshaphat, son of Ahilud, was the remembrancer;
Chule Adoniram kitipa chu engbol a um soh natonga pangho chunga chun vaihom in apangin, Ahilud chapa Jehoshaphat kitipa chu thuching lekha koiyin apangin,
25 And, Sheva, was scribe, —And, Zadok and Abiathar, were priests;
Sheva chu lekha sun in apangin, Zedok le Abiathar chu thempun apang lhonin,
26 Moreover also, Ira the Jairite, was chief ruler unto David.
Chule Jair mi Ira vang chu David din thempun anapang tan ahi.
