< 1 Samuel 4 >

1 And it came [the] word of Samuel to all Israel and it went out Israel to meet [the] Philistines for battle and they encamped at Eben-ezer and [the] Philistines they encamped at Aphek.
Hiche phat laiya chu Israelte le Philistine mite kikah-a gal kidouna uma ahi. Israel sepai hon Ebenezer koma ngahmun uma ahi, chule Philistine ten Aphek mun-a ngahmun aneiyu ahi.
2 And they deployed [the] Philistines to meet Israel and it spread out the battle and it was defeated Israel before [the] Philistines and they struck down in the battle line in the field about four thousand man.
Philistine ten Israel mite gallin ahin nokhum un ahile Israel sepai ten ana lal’un mi sangli jen ana that tauve.
3 And it came the people into the camp and they said [the] elders of Israel why? has he defeated us Yahweh this day before [the] Philistines let us bring to ourselves from Shiloh [the] ark of [the] covenant of Yahweh so it may come in midst our so it may deliver us from [the] hand of enemies our.
Chuin gal kisat akichaiya mipite a ngahmun ahung lhunphat un, Israel upa ho chun, “Ipi jeh’a tunia Pakaiyin Philistine masanga gal eilalsah u hintem?” Chuin amahon aseiyun, “Shiloh a konin Pakai kitepna thingkong chu eiho ding in gapudoh uhitin, hichu ilahuva ahung lhun tengle, hichun igalteuva kon in eihuhdoh thei tauvinte,” akitiuvin ahi.
4 And it sent the people Shiloh and they brought from there [the] ark of [the] covenant of Yahweh of hosts [who] sits the cherubim and [were] there [the] two [the] sons of Eli with [the] ark of [the] covenant of God Hophni and Phinehas.
Hijeh chun amahon Shiloh’a Pakai kitepna van gam sepaite, Cherubim vantil teni kikah’a cheng, Pathen thingkong pudingin mi asol’un, chule Eli chateni Hophni le Phinehas chu Pathen kitepna thingkong chutoh ahung lhon khom’in ahi.
5 And it was when came [the] ark of [the] covenant of Yahweh into the camp and they shouted all Israel a shout great and it was stirred the ground.
Chutah chun Pakai thingkong chu Israelte ngahmun ahung lhun amu phat un, akiphah lheh jeng un, akipanau aogin chun leiset ahotling leuvin ahi.
6 And they heard [the] Philistines [the] sound of the shout and they said what? [is] [the] sound of the shout great this in [the] camp of the Hebrews and they knew that [the] ark of Yahweh it had come into the camp.
Hichun, “Ipi soh hitam?” tin Philistine miten adong uvin, “Gingleng lunga a ao gin’u ajah phat’un, Hebrew mite ngahmun ging leng lung khu ipithu hitam?” akitiuve. Chuin amahon Pakai kitepna thingkong ngahmun hung lhung ahi ti ahechen tauve.
7 And they were afraid the Philistines for they said he has come a god into the camp and they said woe! to us for not it has been like this yesterday three days ago.
Amaho alung linglao tauvin ahi. “Pathen ngahmun uva ahung lhung tai,” tin asam’un, akicha tauvin ahi. Chuin amaho penguvin, “Ohe! Hiche hi vangsetna ahi!” Tumasanga chu hitobang thil hi ana um khalou hel ahi.
8 Woe! to us who? will he deliver us from [the] hand of the gods mighty these these they [are] the gods who struck Egypt with every plague in the wilderness.
“Hitobang hat tah Israel Pathen akona kon eihuhhing jou diu ham? Nei panpiuvin! Egypt gam'a gamthip a hivei jouse sugama Pathen hochu ahiuve.
9 Show yourselves strong and become men O Philistines lest you should serve the Hebrews just as they have served you and you will become men and you will fight.
Hitobang kisatna anaum khapoi, Philistine! Ihatlou-ule Hebrew mite soh a ium diu ahi, pasal bang in dingun, chule sat’un,” akitiuve.
10 And they fought [the] Philistines and it was defeated Israel and they fled each man to own tents his and it was the slaughter great exceedingly and he fell of Israel thirty thousand foot soldier[s].
Chuin Philistine ten jong nasatah in gal asat’un ahile, Israel mite chu ajou un mihem tamtah jong athat tauvin ahi. Hiche nikho chun Israelte mi sang somthum athiuvin, athimoh chengse chu a ngahmun lamah ajam tauvin ahi.
11 And [the] ark of God it was taken and [the] two [the] sons of Eli they died Hophni and Phinehas.
Pathen kitepna thingkong jong alah peh’un, Eli chapa teni Hophi le Phinehas jong chu athat tauvin ahi.
12 And he ran [the] man of Benjamin from the battle line and he came Shiloh on the day that and garments his [were] torn and earth [was] on head his.
Benjamin phung mikhat galmun akonin ahung lhailut in, hiche ni mama chun Shiloh ahung lhung in, apon taldeh duh le aluchung’a leisetnat dehduh pumin ahung lhailut in, hichun agentheina avetsah ahi.
13 And he came and there! Eli [was] sitting on the seat ([the] side of *Q(K)*) [the] road watching for it was heart his trembling on [the] ark of God and the man he came to tell in the city and it cried out all the city.
Eli chu lam pama touna chung khat’a touva anavet ahin, chule thuso chu ajah nom ahi, Ajeh chu Kitepna thingkong akipohdoh jeh’u chun alungsung akithing in ahi. Chule hiche mipa khopi sunga hunglut phat chun thusoh chu aseijin ahile, khopi pumpi miho chu hakan akap tauvin ahi.
14 And he heard Eli [the] sound of the outcry and he said what? [is] [the] sound of the uproar this and the man he hurried and he came and he told to Eli.
“Hiche awgin kithong khu ipi ham,” tin Eli in adongin ahile, thupopa chun Eli chu thusoh chu aseipeh tai.
15 And Eli [was] a son of ninety and eight year[s] and eyes his it was set and not he was able to see.
Eli chu tehse kum somko le get, amit in kho mulou ahitai.
16 And he said the man to Eli I [am] the [one who] comes from the battle line and I from the battle line I have fled this day and he said what? was it the word O son my.
Aman Eli heng’ah, “Keima tutah’a chu galmuna kona hung’ah kahi, keimatah tuni tah’a hia chu uma kahi,” ati. Hichun Eli in, “Ipi iti nam?” tin adonge.
17 And he answered the bearer of news and he said it has fled Israel before [the] Philistines and also a slaughter great it has been among the people and also [the] two sons your they have died Hophni and Phinehas and [the] ark of God it has been taken.
Hichun thupopan, “Israelten Philistine techu alal tai, mipite akisat chaptai chule nacha teni Hophni le Phinahas jong athat tauve chujongle Pathen Thingkong jong ala tauve,” tin ana donbut in ahi.
18 And it was when brought to remembrance he - [the] ark of God and he fell from on the seat backwards behind - [the] side of the gate and it was broken neck his and he died for he was old the man and heavy and he he had judged Israel forty year[s].
Thupopan Pathen thingkong ala taove ti thucheng ajah jah chun Eli thempu atouna kelkot pang langah akon in akileh lhan a ngongpi gu akitaboh in athitai, ajeh chu amachu ateh lheh tan chuke atahsa gih jong apohlal lheh ahi. Ama chun kum somli jen Israel te thutan vaihom ajong anapang ahi.
19 And daughter-in-law his [the] wife of Phinehas [was] pregnant to give birth and she heard the report concerning [the] being taken of [the] ark of God and he had died father-in-law her and husband her and she bowed down and she gave birth for they turned on her pangs her.
Eli thempu mounu, Phinehas inneipi, naovop ahin, anao pen nading naija ahitan, ainneipu thile atehpu thi chule Pathen thingkong kipohmang thu ajah jah chun naoso nat’in ahin phan anavah pai pai jin ahi.
20 And about [the] time of dying she and they spoke those [who] were standing over her may not you be afraid for a son you have borne and not she answered and not she set heart her.
Amanu chu naopen nat-in athitai, ahinlah athi masangin naodom nun atilkhou vin alhamon in, “Kicha hihin, Pasal naosen khat naneiye,” ati peh’e. Ahinlah amanun ima ana donbut thei tapoi.
21 And she called the lad I-chabod saying it has gone into exile glory from Israel because of [the] being taken of [the] ark of God and because of father-in-law her and husband her.
Naosen min chu Ichabod asahtai, (Loupina hoiya um hitam? tina ahi), ajeh chu, “Israel loupina chu akiladoh tai.” Amanun hiche min asahpeh najeh chu Pakai thingkong min akipohmang jeh le, atehpu le ainneipu athi tah jeh a asah ahi.
22 And she said it has gone into exile glory from Israel for it has been taken [the] ark of God.
Hiti chun amanun Pathen thingkong alah mang peh jeh uva, “Loupina chu Israel tetoh kikhen kang ahitai,” tia asei ahi.
