< 1 Chronicles 12 >

1 Now these are those who came to David to Ziklag while he was a fugitive from Saul the son of Kish. They were among the mighty men, his helpers in war.
He tah Kish capa Saul mikhmuh lamloh a vi uh vaengah Ziklag kah David taengla aka kun uh tih hlangrhalh rhoek khui lamloh caemtloek vaengah aka bom khaw amih ni.
2 They were armed with bows, and could use both the right hand and the left in slinging stones and in shooting arrows from the bow. They were of Saul’s relatives of the tribe of Benjamin.
Lii aka muk tih banvoei neh bantang ah lungto neh, thaltang neh, lii neh aka naep Benjamin ko neh Saul kah pacaboeina tah,

8 Some Gadites joined David in the stronghold in the wilderness, mighty men of valor, men trained for war, who could handle shield and spear; whose faces were like the faces of lions, and they were as swift as the gazelles on the mountains:
Gad lamkah khaw khosoek rhalmahim ah David taengla kun uh tih caempuei khuiah tatthai hlangrhalh hlang la omuh. Caemtloek vaengah khaw photlinglen neh cai neh a rhong a pai uh. A maelhmai te sathueng maelhmai la om tih tlang kah kirhang bangla loe uh.

14 These of the sons of Gad were captains of the army. He who was least was equal to one hundred, and the greatest to one thousand.
He rhoek he Gad koca rhoek khui lamkah caempuei boeilu rhoek ni. Pakhat loh a yol koek yakhat, a yet koek thawng khat a hung.
15 These are those who went over the Jordan in the first month, when it had overflowed all its banks; and they put to flight all who lived in the valleys, both toward the east and toward the west.
Amih rhoek he tah tuikaeng langdai pum te tui a li vaengkah lamhma cuek hla ah Jordan te kat uh. Te vaengah tuikol pum te khocuk la, khotlak la yong uh.
16 Some of the children of Benjamin and Judah came to the stronghold to David.
Benjamin neh Judah koca rhoek lamkah khaw, rhalmahim kah David taengla pawk uh.
17 David went out to meet them, and answered them, “If you have come peaceably to me to help me, my heart will be united with you; but if you have come to betray me to my adversaries, since there is no wrong in my hands, may the God of our fathers see this and rebuke it.”
David te amih mikhmuh la mop tih a doo. Te vaengah amih te, “Rhoepnah neh kai bom hamla kai taengah na pawk uh atah kai khaw nangmih taengah thinko thikat la om bitni. Tedae ka rhal taengah kai nan phok ham atah ka kut ah kuthlahnah a om oeh pawt dongah a pa rhoek kah Pathen loh hmuh saeh lamtah tluung saeh,” a ti nah.
18 Then the Spirit came on Amasai, who was chief of the thirty, and he said, “We are yours, David, and on your side, you son of Jesse. Peace, peace be to you, and peace be to your helpers; for your God helps you.” Then David received them and made them captains of the band.
Te vaengah Mueihla loh sawmthum kah boeilu Amasai te a thing tih, “David nang te rhalboei ni. Jesse capa nang taengah rhoepnah om saeh. Nang taengah ngaimongnah om saeh. Nang aka bom taengah rhoepnah om saeh. Na Pathen loh nang m'bom bitni,” a ti nah. Te dongah David loh amih te a doe tih amih te caem kah boeilu la a khueh.
19 Some of Manasseh also joined David when he came with the Philistines against Saul to battle, but they didn’t help them, for the lords of the Philistines sent him away after consultation, saying, “He will desert to his master Saul to the jeopardy of our heads.”
Saul te caemtloek thil ham Philisti neh a paan vaengah Manasseh lamkah khaw David taengla cungku uh. Tedae Philisti boei rhoek loh anih te cilsuep hnukah a tueih uh tih, “A boei rhoek taengla Saul a cungku atah kaimih lu ah tla saeh,” a ti nah dongah amih te bom uh pawh.
20 As he went to Ziklag, some from Manasseh joined him: Adnah, Jozabad, Jediael, Michael, Jozabad, Elihu, and Zillethai, captains of thousands who were of Manasseh.
Ziklag la a caeh vaengah tah Manasseh lamloh Adnah neh Jozabad, Jediael neh Michael, Jozabad, Elihu neh Zillethai tah anih taengla cungku uh. Amih he Manasseh khuiah tah thawngkhat kah boeilu rhoek la om uh.
21 They helped David against the band of raiders, for they were all mighty men of valor and were captains in the army.
Amih te tatthai hlangrhalh neh caempuei khuiah khaw mangpa la boeih a om uh dongah David te caem nen khaw a bom thil uh.
22 For from day to day men came to David to help him, until there was a great army, like God’s army.
Te vaengah tue ah ngawn tah Pathen caem bangla caem len la a poeh hil, anih bom ham te David taengla a hnin, a hnin ah pawk uh.
23 These are the numbers of the heads of those who were armed for war, who came to David to Hebron to turn the kingdom of Saul to him, according to the LORD’s word.
He tah anih taengkah BOEIPA ol bangla Saul kah ram vael pah hamla Hebron kah David taengla aka pawk tih caempuei hamla aka pumcum uh boeilu rhoek kah hlangmi ni.
24 The children of Judah who bore shield and spear were six thousand eight hundred, armed for war.

28 and Zadok, a young man mighty of valor, and of his father’s house twenty-two captains.

29 Of the children of Benjamin, Saul’s relatives: three thousand, for until then, the greatest part of them had kept their allegiance to Saul’s house.

30 Of the children of Ephraim: twenty thousand eight hundred, mighty men of valor, famous men in their fathers’ houses.

32 Of the children of Issachar, men who had understanding of the times, to know what Israel ought to do, their heads were two hundred; and all their brothers were at their command.

33 Of Zebulun, such as were able to go out in the army, who could set the battle in array with all kinds of instruments of war: fifty thousand who could command and were not of double heart.

Jordan rhalvangan lamkah Reuben, Gad neh Manasseh koca hlangvang lamlong khaw caempuei kah hnopai cungkuem neh caemtloek he thawng yahnih thawng kul om.
38 All these were men of war who could order the battle array, and came with a perfect heart to Hebron to make David king over all Israel; and all the rest also of Israel were of one heart to make David king.
Caem vaengah kah a hmaai caemtloek hlang rhoek boeih tah Israel boeih soah David manghai sak ham te thinko rhuemtuet neh Hebron la pawk uh. Te vaengah Israel a meet boeih long khaw David manghai sak ham te lungbuei pakhat la a khueh.
39 They were there with David three days, eating and drinking; for their brothers had supplied provisions for them.
Te vaengah David neh hnin thum pahoi om uh tih amih te a cako la a tawn uh coeng dongah a caak a ok uh.
40 Moreover those who were near to them, as far as Issachar, Zebulun, and Naphtali, brought bread on donkeys, on camels, on mules, and on oxen: supplies of flour, cakes of figs, clusters of raisins, wine, oil, cattle, and sheep in abundance; for there was joy in Israel.
Amih neh aka yoei long khaw Issakhar, Zebulun neh Naphtali bangla buh te laak neh, kalauk neh, muli-marhang neh, saelhung neh a thoeng puei uh. Caak ham te vaidam, thaidae, misur rhae, misurtui, situi, saelhung neh boiva khaw Israel khuikah kohoenah cangpai la a khuen pauh.
