1 Samuel 28
1 Nowe at that time the Philistims assembled their bandes and armie to fight with Israel: therfore Achish said to Dauid, Be sure, thou shalt go out with me to the battel, thou, and thy men.
A tue a pha vaengah Philisti caem loh Israel te vathoh thil ham caempuei la coi uh thae. Te dongah Akhish loh David taengah, “Na caem neh na hlang rhoek neh kai nan puei ham na ming rhoe na ming ham om,” a ti nah.
2 And Dauid said to Achish, Surely thou shalt knowe, what thy seruant can doe. And Achish sayde to Dauid, Surely I will make thee keeper of mine head for euer.
Te dongah David loh Akhish te, “Na sal kah a saii te namah loh rhep na ming bitni,” a ti nah. Te vaengah Akhish loh David te, “Hnin takuem kai lu aka ngaithuen rhep ham tah namah ni kang khueh eh?,” a ti nah.
3 (Samuel was then dead, and all Israel had lamented him, and buried him in Ramah his owne citie: and Saul had put away the sorcerers, and the soothsayers out of the land)
Tahae ah Samuel duek tih anih ham te Israel pum loh a rhaengsae uh. Te phoeiah anih te amah kho Ramah ah a up uh. Te vaengah khohmuen lamkah rhaitonghma neh hnam te Saul loh a khoe.
4 Then the Philistims assembled themselues, and came, and pitched in Shunem: and Saul assembled all Israel, and they pitched in Gilboa.
Philisti rhoek te coi uh thae tih aka cet uh te Shunem ah rhaeh uh. Te vaengah Saul loh Israel pum te a coi tih Gilboa ah rhaeh uh.
5 And when Saul saw the hoste of the Philistims, he was afraid, and his heart was sore astonied.
Saul loh Philisti caem a hmuh vaengah a rhih tih a lungbuei mat lakueng.
6 Therefore Saul asked counsel of the Lord, and the Lord answered him not, neither by dreames, nor by Vrim, nor yet by Prophets.
Te vaengah BOEIPA te Saul loh a dawt dae BOEIPA loh anih te mang nen khaw, Urim nen khaw, tonghma nen khaw doo voel pawh.
7 Then saide Saul vnto his seruants, Seeke me a woman that hath a familiar spirite, that I may goe to her, and aske of her. And his seruants said to him, Beholde, there is a woman at En-dor that hath a familiar spirit.
Te vaengah Saul loh a sal rhoek te, “Hnam nu rhaitonghma te kai ham tlap uh lah, anih taengla ka cet vetih amah te ka cae lah eh,” a ti nah. Te dongah a sal rhoek loh, “Endor ah hnam nu rhaitonghma om ta ke,” a ti nauh.
8 Then Saul changed him selfe, and put on other raiment, and he went, and two men with him, and they came to the woman by night: and he saide, I pray thee, coniecture vnto me by the familiar spirite, and bring me him vp whome I shall name vnto thee.
Te dongah Saul te sa uh tih himbai a tloe a bai. Te phoeiah amah taengkah hlang rhoi te a caeh puei tih khoyin ah huta taengla pawk. Te vaengah, “Rhaitonghma neh kai hamla ham bi ham bi lamtah nang taengah ka thui te kai taengla hang khuen lah,” a ti nah.
9 And the woman saide vnto him, Beholde, thou knowest what Saul hath done, how he hath destroyed the sorcerers, and the southsayers out of the land: wherefore then seekest thou to take me in a snare to cause me to die?
Tedae amah te huta loh, “Saul loh a saii te na ming coeng, rhaitonghma neh hnam te khohmuen lamloh a saii. Balae tih kai duek sak ham ka hinglu he na hlaeh?” a ti nah.
10 And Saul sware to her by the Lord, saying, As the Lord liueth, no harme shall come to thee for this thing.
Tedae anih te Saul loh BOEIPA ming neh a toemngam tih, “BOEIPA kah hingnah dongah tahae kah olka lamkah thaesainah he nang taengah thoeng boel saeh,” a ti nah.
11 Then said the woman, Whom shall I bring vp vnto thee? And he answered, Bring me vp Samuel.
Huta loh, “Nang taengla ulae kang khueneh?” a ti nah hatah, “Kai hamla Samuel te hang khuen,” a ti nah.
12 And when the woman sawe Samuel, she cryed with a loude voyce, and the woman spake to Saul, saying, Why hast thou deceiued me? for thou art Saul.
Huta loh Samuel te a hmuh hatah a ol a len la pang. Te phoeiah huta loh Saul te a voek tih, “Balae tih kai nan phok? Nang he Saul ni,” a ti nah.
13 And the King said vnto her, Be not afraid: for what sawest thou? And the woman said vnto Saul, I saw gods ascending vp out of the earth.
Te vaengah anih te manghai loh, “Na hmuh te rhih boeh,” a ti nah. Te dongah Huta loh Saul te, “Diklai lamkah rhai ha yoeng te ka hmuh,” a ti nah.
14 Then he said vnto her, What facion is hee of? And she answered, An olde man commeth vp lapped in a mantel: and Saul knewe that it was Samuel, and he enclined his face to the grounde, and bowed him selfe.
Te phoeiah, “A suisak ta?” a ti nah. Te vaengah, “Hlang pakhat patong halo tih hnikul neh thing uh,” a ti nah. Anih te Samuel tila Saul loh a ming dongah a thintoek neh diklai la buluk tih a bawk.
15 And Samuel said to Saul, Why hast thou disquieted me, to bring me vp? Then Saul answered, I am in great distresse: for the Philistims make warre against me, and God is departed from me, and answereth me no more, neither by Prophetes, neither by dreames: therefore I haue called thee, that thou mayest tell me, what I shall doe.
Samuel loh Saul te, “Balae tih kai doek hamla kai nan tlai thil?” a ti nah. Saul loh, “Kai he mat n'daengdaeh tih Philisti loh kai m'vathoh thil. Pathen he kai taeng lamloh nong coeng. Tonghma kut nen khaw, mueimang ah khaw kai he n'doo moenih. Te dongah ka saii koi te ming hamla nang kang khue,” a ti nah.
16 Then said Samuel, Wherefore then doest thou aske of me, seeing the Lord is gone from thee, and is thine enemie?
Samuel loh, “Balae tih kai nan dawt? Tedae BOEIPA te nang taeng lamloh nong tih na rhal la om coeng.
17 Euen the Lord hath done to him, as hee spake by mine hande: for the Lord will rent the kingdome out of thine hande, and giue it thy neighbour Dauid.
Ka kut dongkah a thui bangla BOEIPA loh amah ham a saii coeng. Te dongah BOEIPA loh na kut dongkah ram te a phen tih na hui David taengah a paek coeng.
18 Because thou obeyedst not the voyce of the Lord, nor executedst his fierce wrath vpon the Amalekites, therefore hath the Lord done this vnto thee this day.
BOEIPA ol te na ngai pawt tih a thintoek thinsa bangla Amalek te na saii pawh. Te dongah hekah hno he BOEIPA loh tihnin ah nang taengah a saii.
19 Moreouer the Lord wil deliuer Israel with thee into the handes of the Philistims: and to morowe shalt thou and thy sonnes be with me, and the Lord shall giue the hoste of Israel into the handes of the Philistims.
Israel khaw namah neh BOEIPA loh Philisti kut ah n'tloeng ni. Thangvuen ah namah neh kai taengkah na ca rhoek khaw, Israel caem khaw BOEIPA loh Philisti kut ah a paek ni,” a ti nah.
20 Then Saul fell streight way all along on the earth, and was sore afraide because of the wordes of Samuel, so that there was no strength in him: for he had eaten no bread all the day nor all the night.
Te dongah Saul te a yungkhawt la diklai dongah kung pahoi yalh. Samuel ol te bahoeng a rhih tih khoyin khothaih caak a caak pawt dongah a thadueng khaw om pawh.
21 Then the woman came vnto Saul, and sawe that he was sore troubled, and said vnto him, See, thine handmaide hath obeyed thy voyce, and I haue put my soule in mine hande, and haue obeyed thy wordes which thou saydest vnto me.
Te vaengah Saul taengla huta loh a paan hatah mat a let te a hmuh tih, “Na salnu long he nang ol te ni a ngai ne. Te dongah ka kut dongkah ka hinglu ka pom tih kai taengah na thui te na ol bangla ka saii.
22 Now therefore, I pray thee, hearke thou also vnto ye voyce of thine handmaid, and let me set a morsell of bread before thee, that thou mayest eat and get thee strength, and go on thy iourney.
Na salnu kah ol te namah long khaw hnatun mai laeh. Na hmai ah buh kamat khaw kan tawn saeh lamtah ca mai dae. Te daengah ni na thadueng om vetih longpuei ah na caeh thai eh,” a ti nah.
23 But he refused, and said, I will not eate: but his seruants and the woman together compelled him, and he obeyed their voyce: so he arose from the earth, and sate on the bed.
Tedae a aal tih, “Ka ca mahpawh,” a ti nah. A taengkah a sal rhoek neh huta long khaw a na uh dongah amih ol te a hnatun. Te daengah diklai lamkah thoo tih baiphaih dongla ngol.
24 Nowe the woman had a fat calfe in the house, and she hasted, and killed it, and tooke floure and kneaded it, and baked of it vnleauened bread.
Te phoeiah huta loh im kah vaitoca a toitup te koe a ngawn, vaidam te khaw a loh tih a nook phoeiah vaidamding la a kaeng.
25 Then she brought them before Saul, and before his seruants: and when they had eaten, they stoode, and went away the same night.
Te phoeiah Saul hmai neh a sal rhoek hmai ah a tawn pah tih a caak uh. Te phoeiah thoo tih amah tekah khoyin ah pahoi cet uh.
