1 Samuel 24
1 And it came to pass, when Saul had returned from following the Philistines, that it was told to him, saying, Behold, David is in the wilderness of Engedi.
Saul in Philistine mite agasat-a ahung kile jouvin, David En-gedi gamthip mun’ah aluttai tithu aseipeh tauvin ahi.
2 Then Saul took three thousand chosen men out of all Israel, and went to seek David and his men upon the rocks of the wild goats.
Hijeh chun Saul in Israel mite jousea konin galsat them cheh mi sangthum akilhen doh’in David le amite holding in gam-kelcha umna songkol lang’ah aga hol tauvin ahi.
3 And he came to the sheepfolds by the way, where was a cave; and Saul went in to cover his feet: and David and his men remained in the sides of the cave.
Saul chu ahunga ahile lampia kelngoi honlah khat agatoh khan, hiche laiya chun songkohom khat aumin, hikoma chu chomkhat kicholdo din aluttai, hiche songko sunga adan sungnung lang ma ma-a chu David le aloite kisella uma ahi.
4 And the men of David said to him, Behold the day of which the LORD said to thee, Behold, I will deliver thy enemy into thy hand, that thou mayest do to him as it shall seem good to thee. Then David arose, and secretly cut off the skirt of Saul’s robe.
David aloihon ajah a guhthimin, “Tuhi nang dia phat kijen petcha ahi! Tunia hi Pakaiyin asei, ‘Keiman namel mapa chu nakhut’a kapeh doha, nangman naphatsah lamlama nabol ding ahi.’tia asei nikho chu tunia hi hung lhunga ahitai,” atiuve. Hijeh chun David jong akipatdoh in, kangchan akithol thol’in, Saul sangkhol chol mong chu aga-at tan peh tan ahi.
5 And it came to pass afterward, that David’s heart smote him, because he had cut off Saul’s skirt.
Ahin David in Saul sangkhol chol mong chu aga-at tan chu alungsunga nommo asan ahi.
6 And he said to his men, The LORD forbid that I should do this thing to my master, the LORD’S anointed, to stretch forth my hand against him, seeing he is the anointed of the LORD.
Hijeh chun amite jah’a, “Pakaiyin ahet ahi, hiche hi kanabol louding dol ahi, ajeh chu amahi ka pakai le kaleng ahi. Pakaiyin adeilou, ka Pakai le ka lengpa chunga hiche kabol hi alhendohsa le athaonu doudal kahi,” atin ahi.
7 So David restrained his servants with these words, and permitted them not to rise against Saul. But Saul rose out of the cave, and went on his way.
Hijeh chun David in a sepaite chu atuhtang nah nah in, Saul chu atha sah tapon ahi. Saul athouvin songko adalha a, alampi’ah akiche phat- in,
8 David also rose afterward, and went out of the cave, and cried after Saul, saying, My lord the king. And when Saul looked behind him, David stooped with his face to the earth, and bowed himself.
David ahung potdoh'in anungjuiyin asamin, “Ka pakai le lengpa!” atileh Saul ahung kihei phat’in ama jabolnan David tol’a abohkhup in chibai aboh in ahi.
9 And David said to Saul, Why hearest thou men’s words, saying, Behold, David seeketh thy harm?
Chule, hitin Saul jah’a asamin, “Ipibolla nangin mipiho thusei na ngaiya, keihin nang chu kasuhgenthei dana nagel ham?
10 Behold, this day thy eyes have seen how the LORD hath delivered thee to day into my hand in the cave: and some bade me kill thee: but my eye spared thee; and I said, I will not put forth my hand against my lord; for he is the LORD’S anointed.
Tuni nikhotah jeng’a jong nangman namit tah in namun ahi, hichu atahbeh ahi. Ajeh chu Pakai in kei khotona noiyah songko sung jenga jong nakoijin ahi. Kamiteho phabep khat in katha ding hitam tia eidohuva, kana noplou ahi. Ipijeh inem itileh, ‘keiman ka lengpa sugenthei louding kahi-amahi Pakai thaonu sa ahi,’
11 Moreover, my father, see, yea, see the skirt of thy robe in my hand: for in that I cut off the skirt of thy robe, and killed thee not, know thou and see that there is neither evil nor transgression in my hand, and I have not sinned against thee; yet thou huntest my soul to take it.
Ven kapa, kakhutna ipi kachoi em? na sangkholchol among kachelhah chu bou kachoi ahibouve, nathat pong kate. Nasugenthei pong kate ti vetsahna’a keiman nangma kasuhgenthei lou ding chule nangin thading in nei dal le le jong lechun nachunga kachonset lou ding ahi,” ati.
12 The LORD judge between me and thee, and the LORD avenge me of thee: but my hand shall not be upon thee.
“Pathen chu eini kaha ahetoh, athutan ahi. Ijemtia kei chunga nabolla ahile Pathen in gotna napeh ding ahi, ahinlah ken vang nang kasuhgenthei lou ding ahi.
13 As saith the proverb of the ancients, Wickedness proceedeth from the wicked: but my hand shall not be upon thee.
Thuchih luiyin khat in, ‘Miphalou hoa konin, thil phalou tohdoh in aume,’ ati. Hijeh chun nang dounan itihchan hijongle kakhut kalap louding ahi.
14 After whom is the king of Israel come out? after whom dost thou pursue? after a dead dog, after a flea.
Israel lengpa chu koipen nunga hung hija, koipen thunung nahin dal mong mong ham? Uicha thisa khat tou ham, uili khattou nung dal nahim?
15 The LORD therefore be judge, and judge between me and thee, and see, and plead my cause, and deliver me out of thy hand.
Hijeh chu Pakai chu thutan in pang henlang, keile nang kikah’ah thutan pa hijing jeng hen,” ati.
16 And it came to pass, when David had finished speaking these words to Saul, that Saul said, Is this thy voice, my son David? And Saul lifted up his voice, and wept.
Chuin David in aseiding jouse asei jou phatin, Saul in ahin donbut in, “Thu hin sei a chu chapa David mong mong nahi hinam?” atin akap pantan ahi.
17 And he said to David, Thou art more righteous than I: for thou hast rewarded me with good, though I have rewarded thee with evil.
Chule David koma aseiyin, “Nang hi kei sangin nadih e, ajeh chu keiman nachunga thilphalou jeng kabollin ahin nangman vang thilpha jeng in nei lethuh jing jenge,” atitai.
18 And thou hast showed this day how thou hast dealt with me: forasmuch as when the LORD had delivered me into thy hand, thou didst not kill me.
“Henge, nangman hepina dihtah in tunin nei ngailun, nei tha theina ding laitah a jong neithat pon ahi.
19 For if a man findeth his enemy, will he let him go away well? therefore the LORD reward thee with good for what thou hast done to me this day.
Hitobang hi mihem khat’in amelma pa ato khah’a ahile, damsella alhadoh mong mong ding hinam? Hijeh chun tunia kei dinga thilpha naboldoh jeh in, Pakaiyin thilpha nabolpeh teitei hen.
20 And now, behold, I know well that thou shalt surely be king, and that the kingdom of Israel shall be established in thy hand.
Chule tun keiman kichentah in kahetai, nangma Israelte leng nahung hitei tei ding ahi.
21 Swear now therefore to me by the LORD, that thou wilt not cut off my seed after me, and that thou wilt not destroy my name out of my father’s house.
Hijeh chun tunin Pakai minin kahenga kitep’in, ‘Kathi nungle kainsung jong na hinghoiya, kakhanggui le kachilhah jong nei hoi peh teijin!” ati.
22 And David swore to Saul. And Saul went home; but David and his men went up to the strong hold.
Chuin David jong Saul koma akihahsel in, hichun Saul jong inlam ajon tan; David le asepai chengse akulpiu muna akaltou tauvin ahi.
