1 Samuel 14
1 And the day cometh that Jonathan son of Saul saith unto the young man bearing his weapons, 'Come, and we pass over unto the station of the Philistines, which [is] on the other side of this;' and to his father he hath not declared [it].
Hnin at a om nen tah Saul capa Jonathan loh a hno phuei cadong te, “Halo lamtah rhalvang ah Philisti rhaltawt hmuen te paan sih,” a ti nah. Tedae a napa taengla puen pawh.
2 And Saul is abiding at the extremity of Gibeah, under the pomegranate which [is] in Migron, and the people who [are] with him, about six hundred men,
Te vaengah Saul tah Gibeah bawt ah, Migron kah tale thing hmuiah ngol tih a taengkah pilnam he hlang ya rhuk tluk omuh.
3 and Ahiah, son of Ahitub, brother of I-Chabod, son of Phinehas son of Eli priest of Jehovah in Shiloh, bearing an ephod; and the people knew not that Jonathan hath gone.
Te vaengah hnisui aka bai tih Shiloh ah BOEIPA kah khosoih la aka om Eli capa Phinekha koca Ikhabod mana Ahitub capa Ahijah khaw om. Tedae Jonathan a caeh te pilnam loh a ming moenih.
4 And between the passages where Jonathan sought to pass over unto the station of the Philistines [is] the edge of a rock on the one side, and the edge of a rock on the other side, and the name of the one is Bozez, and the name of the other Seneh.
Philisti rhaltawt hmuen paan ham te Jonathan loh a laklo kah lamkai longah a mae. Te vaengah rhalvangan khat benah thaelpang cangngok la om tih rhalvangan khat benah thaelpang cangngok la om bal. Pakhat a ming ah Bozez tih pakhat tah a ming ah Seneh ni.
5 The one edge [is] fixed on the north over-against Michmash, and the one on the south over-against Gibeah.
Lungto cangngok pakhat te tlangpuei kah Mikmash imdan ah, pakhat te tuithim kah Geba imdan ah tungpuei la pai.
6 And Jonathan saith unto the young man bearing his weapons, 'Come, and we pass over unto the station of these uncircumcised; it may be Jehovah doth work for us, for there is no restraint to Jehovah to save by many or by few.'
Jonathan loh a hno phuei cadong te, “Cet sih lamtah, pumdul rhoek kah rhaltawt hmuen ke paan sih. Amih te BOEIPA loh mamih ham a saii khaming. A yol a yet neh khang ham te BOEIPA taengah kanghalhkung a om moenih.
7 And the bearer of his weapons saith to him, 'Do all that [is] in thy heart; turn for thee; lo, I [am] with thee, as thine own heart.'
Te dongah a hno phuei loh, “Na thinko ah aka om te tah boeih saii ngawn. Na ngaih bangla vikvuek uh ngawn, na thinko kah bangla nang taengah ka om ngawn he,” a ti nah.
8 And Jonathan saith, 'Lo, we are passing over unto the men, and are revealed unto them;
Te vaengah Jonathan loh, “Mamih rhoi loh hlang te m'paan coeng tih amih taengla m'phoe pawn ni he.
9 if thus they say unto us, 'Stand still till we have come unto you,' then we have stood in our place, and do not go up unto them;
Tedae mamih rhoi taengah ni, “Nangmih taengla kaimih ka pawk hil duem rhoi dae,” a ti uh atah mah paihmuen ah pai sih lamtah amih taengla cet boel sih,” a ti nah.
10 and if thus they say, 'Come up against us,' then we have gone up, for Jehovah hath given them into our hand, and this to us [is] the sign.
Tedae, “Kaimih taengla ha luei laeh,” a ti uh van atah luei van sih. Amih te BOEIPA loh mamih kut dongah m'paek coeng dongah tahae kah he mamih ham miknoek la om coeng,” a ti nah.
11 And revealed are both of them unto the station of the Philistines, and the Philistines say, 'Lo, Hebrews are coming out of the holes where they have hid themselves.'
Te phoeiah amih rhoi khaw Philisti rhaltawt hmuen taengla a moe rhoi hatah Philisti rhoek loh, “Aka thuh uh tangtae Hebrew loh a khui lamkah ha moe ke,” a ti uh.
12 And the men of the station answer Jonathan, and the bearer of his weapons, and say, 'Come up unto us, and we cause you to know something.' And Jonathan saith unto the bearer of his weapons, 'Come up after me, for Jehovah hath given them into the hand of Israel.'
Te dongah rhaltawt hlang rhoek loh Jonathan neh a hno phuei te a doo tih, “Kaimih taengla ha luei rhoi lamtah nangmih rhoi te olka kan thuituen eh?,” a ti nah. Te dongah a hno phuei te Jonathan loh, “Kai hnukah halo laeh, amih he BOEIPA loh Israel kut dongah a paek coeng,” a ti nah.
13 And Jonathan goeth up on his hands, and on his feet, and the bearer of his weapons after him; and they fall before Jonathan, and the bearer of his weapons is putting to death after him.
Jonathan te a kut a kho neh a luei vaengah a hno phuei loh a hnukah a rhoi van. Te vaengah Jonathan mikhmuh kah aka cungku rhoek te a hno phuei loh a hnukah a ngawn pah.
14 And the first smiting which Jonathan and the bearer of his weapons have smitten is of about twenty men, in about half a furrow of a yoke of a field,
Jonathan neh a hno phuei loh a tloek lamhma dongah khohmuen kah rhoi hma ngancawn ah hlang pakul tluk tah hmasoe la om.
15 and there is a trembling in the camp, in the field, and among all the people, the station and the destroyers have trembled — even they, and the earth shaketh, and it becometh a trembling of God.
Te vaengah lambong khuiah khaw, lohma ah khaw, rhaltawt hmuen kah pilnam boeih khuiah khaw thuennah om. Amih a lakueng uh vaengah diklai te tlai tih Pathen taengkah thuennah bangla a om pah.
16 And the watchmen of Saul in Gibeah of Benjamin see, and lo, the multitude hath melted away, and it goeth on, and is beaten down.
Benjamin Gibeah kah Saul kah rhaltawt rhoek loh a sawt uh vaengah tah hlangping te tarha paci tih he ben he bang la a caeh pah.
17 And Saul saith to the people who [are] with him, 'Inspect, I pray you, and see; who hath gone from us?' and they inspect, and lo, Jonathan and the bearer of his weapons are not.
Te dongah Saul loh a taengkah pilnam te, “So uh lah, mamih taeng lamkah aka cet rhoek te thuep uh lah,” a ti nah. Te vaengah Jonathan neh a hno phuei te hah tarha a tae uh.
18 And Saul saith to Ahiah, 'Bring nigh the ark of God;' for the ark of God hath been on that day with the sons of Israel.
Tekah khohnin ah Pathen kah thingkawng he Israel ca rhoek taengla a om coeng dongah Ahijah te Saul loh, “Pathen kah thingkawng te hang khuen,” a ti nah.
19 And it cometh to pass, while Saul spake unto the priest, that the noise which [is] in the camp of the Philistines goeth on, going on and becoming great, and Saul saith unto the priest, 'Remove thy hand.'
Saul loh khosoih te a voek vaengah Philisti rhaehhmuen khuikah hlangping aka pongpa te a yet la muep pongpa uh. Te dongah khosoih te Saul loh, “Na kut te vawk poem ne,” a ti nah.
20 And Saul is called, and all the people who [are] with him, and they come in unto the battle, and, lo, the sword of each hath been against his neighbour — a very great destruction.
Te daengah Saul neh a taengkah pilnam pum te a hueh tih caem te a paan uh. Tedae hlang kah cunghang loh a hui te a cuk thil tarha dongah soekloeknah loh len khungdaeng.
21 And the Hebrews [who] have been for the Philistines as heretofore, who had gone up with them into the camp, have turned round, even they, to be with Israel who [are] with Saul and Jonathan,
Hebrew rhoek loh hlaem hlavai ah tah Philisti taengla om uh tih rhaehhmuen kaepvai ah amih taengla cet uh. Tedae amih khaw Saul neh Jonathan taengkah Israel taengla koep om uh.
22 and all the men of Israel, who are hiding themselves in the hill-country of Ephraim, have heard that the Philistines have fled, and they pursue — even they — after them in battle.
Philisti rhoek rhaelrham coeng tila Ephraim tlang ah aka thuh Israel hlang boeih loh a yaak uh vaengah caemtloek dongah amih taengah koep kaibaeng uh.
23 And Jehovah saveth Israel on that day, and the battle hath passed over to Beth-Aven.
Tekah khohnin ah Israel te BOEIPA loh a khang dongah caem loh Bethaven a poeng phai.
24 And the men of Israel have been distressed on that day, and Saul adjureth the people, saying, 'Cursed [is] the man who eateth food till the evening, and I have been avenged of mine enemies;' and none of the people hath tasted food.
Te khohnin ah Israel hlang te a tueihno coeng. Saul loh pilnam te a tap tih, “Hlaem duela buh aka ca hlang te tah thaephoei thil saeh, ka thunkha soah phu ka loh vaengah,” a ti. Te dongah pilnam boeih loh buh ten pawh.
25 And all [they of] the land have come into a forest, and there is honey on the face of the field;
Te daengah khohmuen pum loh duup neh diklai hman kah khoitui aka om te a paan uh pueng.
26 and the people come in unto the forest, and lo, the honey dropped, and none is moving his hand unto his mouth, for the people feared the oath.
Pilnam loh duup khuiah khoitui tuicip te lawt a thoeng thil. Tedae olhlo te pilnam loh a rhih dongah a ka khuila a kut puei pawh.
27 And Jonathan hath not heard of his father's adjuring the people, and putteth forth the end of the rod, which [is] in his hand, and dippeth it in the honeycomb, and bringeth back his hand unto his mouth — and his eyes see!
Tedae a napa loh pilnam a toem a ngam vaengah Jonathan loh ya pawh. Te dongah a kut dongkah caitueng hmuidong te a khoh tih duup kah khoitui khuila a nuem. A hmuh lawt neh a kut te a ka dongla a coh hatah a mik a tueng pah.
28 And a man of the people answereth and saith, 'Thy father certainly adjured the people, saying, Cursed [is] the man who eateth food to-day; and the people are weary.'
Te vaengah pilnam khuikah hlang pakhat loh a doo tih, “Pilnam te na pa loh ol a caeng a caeng tih, 'Tihnin ah caak aka ca hlang tah thaephoei thil la om coeng,’ a ti nah dongah pilnam he lamlum,” a ti nah.
29 And Jonathan saith, 'My father hath troubled the land; see, I pray you, that mine eyes have become bright because I tasted a little of this honey.
Te vaengah Jonathan loh, “Khohmuen kongah a pa loh n'lawn coeng. He khoitui bet ka ten dongah ka mik a tueng he hmu uh van lah.
30 How much more if the people had well eaten to-day of the spoil of its enemies which it hath found, for now, the smiting hath not been great among the Philistines.'
A thunkha kah kutbuem a hmuh uh te pilnam loh tihnin ah ca lammah ca van mai koinih Philisti khuiah hmasoe yet pawt suidae a?,” a ti.
31 And they smite on that day among the Philistines from Michmash to Aijalon, and the people are very weary,
Tekah khohnin ah Philisti te Mikmash lamloh Aijalon duela a tloek uh tih pilnam khaw mat tawn.
32 and the people make unto the spoil, and take sheep, and oxen, and sons of the herd, and slaughter on the earth, and the people eat with the blood.
Te tlam te a saii vaengah pilnam te kutbuem kutbuem dongla cu. Te phoeiah boiva khaw, saelhung khaw, saelhung ca khaw a loh uh. Te te diklai ah a ngawn uh tih a thii khaw pilnam loh a caak thil.
33 And they declare to Saul, saying, 'Lo, the people are sinning against Jehovah, to eat with the blood.' And he saith, 'Ye have dealt treacherously, roll unto me to-day a great stone.'
Te dongah Saul taengla puen uh tih, “Thii a caak dongah pilnam loh BOEIPA taengah tholh uh coeng ke,” a ti nah. Tedae, “Na hnukpoh uh tih tihnin ah kai taengla lungnu nam paluet uh,” a ti nah.
34 And Saul saith, 'Be ye scattered among the people, and ye have said to them, Bring ye nigh unto me each his ox, and each his sheep; and ye have slain [them] in this place, and eaten, and ye do not sin against Jehovah to eat with the blood.' And all the people bring nigh each his ox, in his hand, that night, and slaughter [them] there.
Te phoeiah Saul loh, “Pilnam taengah taekyak uh lamtah amih te thui pah. Hlang boeih loh kai taengla a vaito khaw, hlang boeih loh a tu hang khuen saeh. He ah ngawn uh lamtah ca uh. Tedae a thii neh na caak ham tah BOEIPA taengah na tholh uh pawt nim?,” a ti nah. Te dongah khoyin ah tah pilnam boeih loh amah kah vaito te a kut dongah rhip a khuen uh tih pahoi a ngawn uh.
35 And Saul buildeth an alter to Jehovah; with it he hath begun to build altars to Jehovah.
Te vaengah Saul loh BOEIPA ham hmueihtuk a suem te anih loh BOEIPA ham lamhma cuek a suem hmueihtuk la om.
36 And Saul saith, 'Let us go down after the Philistines by night, and we prey upon them till the light of the morning, and leave not a man of them.' And they say, 'All that is good in thine eyes do.' And the priest saith, 'Let us draw near hither unto God.'
Te phoeiah Saul loh, “Khoyin ah Philisti hnuk te suntlak thil sih lamtah mincang khosae duela amih te poelyoe sih, amih hlang te hlun boel sih,” a ti nah hatah, “Na mik dongah aka then sarhui tah saii laeh,” a ti na uh. Tedae khosoih longtah, “Pathen taengla pahoi nawn uh sih,” a ti nah.
37 And Saul asketh of God, 'Do I go down after the Philistines? dost Thou give them into the hand of Israel?' and He hath not answered him on that day.
Te dongah Pathen te Saul loh, “Philisti hnukah ka suntla aya? Amih ke Israel kut ah na paek aya? tila a dawt. Tedae tekah khohnin ah anih te doo pawh.
38 And Saul saith, 'Draw ye nigh hither all, the chiefs of the people, and know and see in what this sin hath been to-day;
Te dongah Saul loh, “Pilnam te a cong cong ah boeih ha mop saeh lamtah ming uh saeh. Tihnin kah aka om tholhnah he hmu uh van saeh.
39 for, Jehovah liveth, who is saving Israel: surely if it be in Jonathan my son, surely he doth certainly die;' and none is answering him out of all the people.
BOEIPA kah hingnah dongah Israel he a khang. Te loh ka ca Jonathan om puei mai cakhaw Jonathan he duek rhoe duek saeh,” a ti. Tedae pilnam boeih loh anih te doo voel pawh.
40 And he saith unto all Israel, 'Ye — ye are on one side, and I and Jonathan my son are on another side;' and the people say unto Saul, 'That which is good in thine eyes do.'
Te phoeiah, “Nangmih Israel pum te rhalvangan pakhat ah om lamtah kai neh ka capa Jonathan tah rhalvangan pakhat ah ka om eh?,” a ti nah. Tedae Saul te pilnam loh, “Na mikhmuh ah aka then tah saii ngawn,” a ti nah.
41 And Saul saith unto Jehovah, God of Israel, 'Give perfection;' and Jonathan and Saul are captured, and the people went out.
Te dongah Israel Pathen BOEIPA te Saul loh, “A cuemthuek mah m'pae,” a ti nah. Te dongah Jonathan neh Saul te a tuuk tih pilnam te loeih.
42 And Saul saith, 'Cast between me and Jonathan my son;' and Jonathan is captured.
Saul loh, “Kai laklo neh ka capa Jonathan laklo ah hmulung naan lah,” a ti nah tih Jonathan a tuuk.
43 And Saul saith unto Jonathan, 'Declare to me, what hast thou done?' and Jonathan declareth to him, and saith, 'I certainly tasted with the end of the rod that [is] in my hand a little honey; lo, I die!'
Te phoeiah Saul loh Jonathan te, “Na saii te kai taengah thui lah,” a ti nah. Te dongah Jonathan loh anih taengla a puen pah tih, “Khoitui a yol, ka kut dongkah caitueng hmuidong kah te ka ten la ka ten mai nen nim kai ka duek tarha eh?,” a ti nah.
44 And Saul saith, 'Thus doth God do, and thus doth He add, for thou dost certainly die, Jonathan.'
Saul loh, “Jonathan! duek khaw duek laeh, Pathen loh n'saii vetih n'talh bal ve,” a ti nah.
45 And the people say unto Saul, 'Doth Jonathan die who wrought this great salvation in Israel? — a profanation! Jehovah liveth, if there falleth from the hair of his head to the earth, for with God he hath wrought this day;' and the people rescue Jonathan, and he hath not died.
Tedae Saul taengah pilnam loh, “Israel khuiah khangnah a len la aka saii Jonathan te duek saeh e? BOEIPA kah hingnah nen tah savisava, tihnin ah he Pathen loh a saii puei dongah, a lu lamkah samtlang pakhat pataeng lai la rhul mahpawh,” a ti nah. Te dongah Jonathan te pilnam loh a lat tih duek pawh.
46 And Saul goeth up from after the Philistines, and the Philistines have gone to their place;
Te daengah Saul khaw Philisti hnuk lamloh vik nong tih Philisti khaw amah hmuen la cet uh.
47 and Saul captured the kingdom over Israel, and he fighteth round about against all his enemies, against Moab, and against the Bene-Ammon, and against Edom, and against the kings of Zobah, and against the Philistines, and whithersoever he turneth he doth vex [them].
Saul loh Israel soah mangpa la huul uh tih, a kaepvai kah a thunkha boeih, Moab khaw, Ammon ca rhoek khaw, Edom khaw, Zobah manghai rhoek neh Philisti khaw a vathoh thil boeih te a hoilae tih, a tulnoi.
48 And he maketh a force, and smiteth Amalek, and delivereth Israel out of the hand of its spoiler.
Caem neh a saii tih Amalek te a tloek dongah anih aka reth kut lamloh Israel te a huul.
49 And the sons of Saul are Jonathan, and Ishui, and Melchi-Shua; as to the name of his two daughters, the name of the first-born [is] Merab, and the name of the younger Michal;
Saul ca rhoek he Jonathan khaw, Ishee khaw, Malkhishua khaw, a canu rhoi khaw a ming om uh. A canu a ham ming tah Merab tih a noe ming Mikhal ni.
50 and the name of the wife of Saul [is] Ahinoam, daughter of Ahimaaz; and the name of the head of his host [is] Abner son of Ner, uncle of Saul;
Saul yuu, a ming ah Ahinoam he Ahimaaz canu ni. Anih kah caempuei mangpa, a ming ah Abner he khaw Saul kah a napanoe Ner capa ni.
51 and Kish [is] father of Saul, and Ner father of Abner [is] son of Ahiel.
Kish he tah Saul kah a napa la om tih, Abiel capa Abner he tah Ner kah a napa la om.
52 And the war is severe against the Philistines all the days of Saul; when Saul hath seen any mighty man, and any son of valour, then he doth gather him unto himself.
Saul tue khuiah he Philisti neh caemtloek he a tlungluen la om. Te dongah Saul loh hlang boeih te hlangrhalh neh tatthai ca khaw boeih a hmuh tih amah taengla a coi.
