2 Samuel 5
1 Then [the leaders of] all the tribes of Israel came to David at Hebron, and said to him, “Listen, we have the same ancestors [IDM] that you do.
Chuin Israel phungmi jouse Hebron munna David kom achiu vin ahengah hitin aseijui, “keihohi nangma tahsa le thisan jeng kahiuve.
2 In the past, when Saul was our king, it was you who led our Israeli soldiers [in our battles]. You are the one to whom Yahweh promised, ‘You will be the leader [MET] of my people; you will be their king.’”
Achisa phatlai a Saul kaleng u ahilai jeng injong, nangma bou nahi Israel sepai te analamkai chu. Chule Pakaiyin nahengah aseiyin, ‘nangma hi kami Israel te chingpa nahi ding ahi. nangma hi Israel’s te lamkai ding nahi.”’ Atiuve.
3 So while Yahweh was listening, all those leaders of the people of Israel declared there at Hebron [that David would be their king]. And David made a sacred agreement with them. They anointed him [with olive oil to set him apart] to be the king of the Israeli people.
Hijeh chun Hebron munnah ahitin ahi, leng David in Pakai masang le Israel upa ho jouse masang ngah kitep nakhat asem tan ahi. chuin amahon Israel mite chunga leng din thao anu taovin ahi.
4 David was 30 years old when he became their king. He ruled them for 40 years.
David in lengvai ahinpoh chun atahsa kum kum somthum alhing tan ahi, chule kum somli sung lengvai anapon ahi.
5 In Hebron he ruled over the tribe of Judah for seven and a half years, and in Jerusalem he ruled over all the people of Judah and Israel for 33 years.
Chuin Judah mite chungah kum sagi le lhagup sung Hebron akon vai anahom in, chule Jerusalem akonnin Israel le Judah mite jouse chungah kum somthum le kum thum sung leng vai anahom in ahi.
6 [One day] King David and his soldiers went to Jerusalem to fight against the Jebus people-group who lived there. The people there thought that David’s army would not be able to capture the city, so they sent a message to David, saying “Your army will never be able to get inside our city! Even the blind and crippled people will be able to chase you away!”
Chuin David in asepaite alamkai in Jerusalem lamma Jebusites mite toh kidoudin achitao vin ahi, chule amahohi agam a chengden mimong mong ho chu ahiu vin ahi. chuin Jebusites miten hitin David hengah ahinseiyui, “nangho hichemun hin hunglut jou pou vin nate, mitcho le elbai ho jeng injong nadeldoh jou diu ahi atiuve!” ajeh chu ama hohi bitkei a umdan na kigel u ahi.
7 But David’s army captured the fortress on Zion [Hill], [and later it was known as] David’s City.
Ahilah David in khopi dettah Zion khopi chu alatan ahi, tunin hiche mun chu David khopi akiti tai.
8 On that day, David said [to his soldiers], “Those who want to get rid of the Jebus people-group should go through the water tunnel [to enter the city]. Then they can attack those people whom I [SYN] detest—[and we will find out if any] blind and crippled people [will be able to stop them]!” That is why people say, “Blind and crippled people cannot enter Yahweh’s temple.”
Chuchi agabulu nikhou chun David in a sepai ho hengah hitin aseiye, “keiman Jebusite mi mitcho hole elbai ho chu kavet nompoi. Koi hileh agabulu ding hochu twilam apet khopi sung lut diu ahi.” hichu thu kisei abul ahi, “mitcho hole elbai ho chu insung lut man lou Meithei u ahi.” ati.
9 [After] David [and his soldiers captured] the city with its strong walls around it, he lived there, and they named it ‘David’s City’. David [and his soldiers] built the city around the fortress, starting where the [land was (filled in/terraces) on the east side of the hill].
Hitichun David in akulpiu chu a inmun in asemin chule David khopi asah tan ahi. chule David in khopi sung chu achung langah ahinpan in aasung lang gei in akeh len ben ahi.
10 David continued to become more and more powerful/influential, because the Almighty Commander of the armies of angels was with/helping him.
Hitichun David jong ahung thahat cheh cheh jengin ahi, ajeh chu Pakai Van Pathen sepai ten ama aumpi jeh u ahi.
11 [One day] Hiram, the king of Tyre [city], sent ambassadors/messengers to David [to talk about making agreements between their countries]. Hiram agreed to provide cedar trees [to make lumber], and also that he would send carpenters and masons, to build a palace for David.
Chuin Tyre gamma lengpa Hiram in David hengah sottol le hochu Cedar thingho, thingthem bolho, song insathem ho chutoh asol than amahon David leng inpi ashah pih taovin ahi.
12 His doing that caused David to realize that Yahweh truly had appointed him to be the king of Israel, and that Yahweh was going to cause his kingdom to prosper, because Yahweh loved the Israeli people, whom [he had chosen to] belong to him.
Hichun David in Pakaiyin Israel mite jouse chunga leng dia atun nale ami Israel te khohsah najalla aleng gam phatthei aboh chu ahin geldoh tan ahi.
13 After David moved from Hebron to Jerusalem, he took more slave women to be his second-class wives, and he also married other women. [All of those women] gave birth to more sons and daughters.
Hebron akon Jerusalem akichon doh jou chun, David in ajiding le thaikem ding akipui ben, chule amahon chapa le chanu ahinbe pih un ahi.
14 The names of the sons who were born in Jerusalem were Shammua, Shobab, Nathan, Solomon,
Hiche hohi David chapate Jerusalem a peng ho min ahi: Shammua, Shabab, Nathan, Solomon,
15 Ibhar, Elishua, Nepheg, Japhia,
Ibhar, Elishua, Nepheg, Japhi,
16 Elishama, Eliada, and Eliphelet.
Elishama, Eliada, chule Eliphelet ahiuve.
17 When the Philistia people heard that David had been appointed to be the king of Israel, their army went up [toward Jerusalem] to try to capture David. But David heard that they were coming, so he went down to another fortified place.
Chuin Philistine ten David chu Israel te leng dia thao akinu ajah doh phat un, amahon asepai te jouse chu David mandin akigut shah taovin ahi. hinlah amaho ahung uchu David akiseipih tan, hichun ama kulpidet lamma achitan ahi.
18 The [army of] Philistia arrived at Rephaim Valley [southwest of Jerusalem] and spread all over the valley.
Chuin Philistine tejong ahung lhung un chule Rephaim phaicham lam geiyin akithe thang taovin ahi.
19 David asked Yahweh, “Should [my men and] I attack the Philistia army? Will you enable us to defeat them [IDM]?” Yahweh replied, “Yes, attack them, because I will certainly enable your army to defeat them. [IDM]”
Hichun David in Pakai adongin, “keima kapotdoh a hiche Philistine mite hi kaga kisatpi ding ham? Nangman amaho chunga galjona neipih ding ham?” ati. Chuin Pakaiyin David ahin donbut in, “henge, chijengin. Keiman amaho khu nangma khut a kapeh tei ding ahi.” atitai.
20 So David [and his army] went to [where the Philistia army was], and there they defeated them. Then David said, “Yahweh has burst through my enemies like a flood.” [SIM] So that place is called ‘Lord of Bursting-through’.
Chuin David in Baal – perazim lam ajonin hiche mun ah chun Philistine te ajou tan ahi. chuin David in hitin aseiye, Pakai bola ahi! aman kamelma jouse twi kithe thang bangin athe thang tan ahi. hijeh chun aman chi mun chu Baal – perazim asah tan ahi. (hichu Pakaiyin athethang tina ahi).
21 The Philistia men left their idols there; so David and his soldiers took them away.
Philistines miten hiche mun ah chun amilimdoi houchu adalhao vin, chule David le asepai ten amaho chu ala taovin ahi.
22 Then the Philistia [army] returned to Rephaim Valley and spread all over the valley.
Chuin phat chomkhat jouvin Philistines mite chu akile kit un, chule Rephaim phaicham geijin aga kithe thang kit un ahi.
23 So again David asked Yahweh [if his army should attack them]. But Yahweh replied, “Do not attack them [from here]. Tell your men to go around them and attack them from the other side, near the balsam trees.
Chule David in epi kabol ding ham tin Pakai chu adong kit in ahileh. Pakaiyin hitin ahin donbut nin, jangkei a nachiuva naga bulu tah lou diu ahi, hinlah anung lam uva kon naumkol diu chuteng poplar thing kom akon nabulu diu ahi ati.
24 When you hear something in the tops of the balsam trees that sounds like [an army] marching, attack them, because I will have gone ahead of you [to enable your army] to defeat their army.”
Chule nanghon poplar thing chung lamma mikijot kengto gin najah teng ule kiging sadem a naum diu ahi! hichu Philistine mite chunga galjona nanei thei nadiuva Pakaiyin nachungvum uva nalhonpi nao melchih na hiding ahi.
25 So David did what Yahweh told him to do, and his [army] defeated the Philistia army from Geba [city] all the way [west] to Gezer [city].
Hijeh chun David injong Pakaiyin athupeh bang chun abollin, Philistines mite jouse chu Gibeon apet Gezer changei in athat gam tan ahi.
