1Huan, hichi ahi a, Saula kianga thu a gen khitin Jonathan hinna leh David hinna a hong kipeh geiha, huchiin Jonathanin amah hinna a it bangin amah a it hi.
1And it came to pass, when he had made an end of speaking unto Saul, that the soul of Jonathan was knit with the soul of David, and Jonathan loved him as his own soul.
2Huan, Saulain huai niin a omsak pah ngala, a pa ina a paia phalta kei hi.
2And Saul took him that day, and would let him go no more home to his father's house.
3Huchiin Jonathan leh Davidin thu a khung ua, amah hinna bang geiha amah a it jiakin.
3Then Jonathan and David made a covenant, because he loved him as his own soul.
4Huan, Jonathanin a puansilh lai a suaha, david a piaa, a kivatna leh a namsau leh a thalpeu leh a taigakna nangawn amah a pia hi.
4And Jonathan stripped himself of the robe that was upon him, and gave it to David, and his garments, even to his sword, and to his bow, and to his girdle.
5Huan, Saulain a sawlna peuh ah David a hoh jela, kizen takin a gamtang: huan, Saulain galkapmite heutu dingin amah a bawla, huai mite tengteng ngaihin leh Saula sikha te ngaihin leng a hoih mahmah.
5And David went out whithersoever Saul sent him, and behaved himself wisely: and Saul set him over the men of war, and he was accepted in the sight of all the people, and also in the sight of Saul's servants.
6Huan, hichi ahi a, a hongpai ua Philistia mi that David a hongpaiin Israel kho tengah numeite lasa leh lam kawmin khuangta leh thil ging theite toh, nuamsa takin kumpipa Saula dawn dingin a hongpawt khia ua.
6And it came to pass as they came, when David was returned from the slaughter of the Philistine, that the women came out of all cities of Israel, singing and dancing, to meet king Saul, with tabrets, with joy, and with instruments of music.
7Huan, numeiten lam kawmin la a kidawng tuah ua, Saulain a sanga sang a that, Davidin a singa sing, a chi ua.
7And the women answered one another as they played, and said, Saul hath slain his thousands, and David his ten thousands.
8Huchiin Saula a thuten amah a kipaksak kei hiala; David bel a singa sing thatin a ngai ua, kei ahihleh a sanga sang kia thatin a hongai uh; gam loungal a tan ding dang bang ahia omta? A chi a.
8And Saul was very wroth, and the saying displeased him; and he said, They have ascribed unto David ten thousands, and to me they have ascribed but thousands: and what can he have more but the kingdom?
9Huchiin Saula in huai ni akipanin david a enmohta hi.
9And Saul eyed David from that day and forward.
10Huan, hichi ahi a, ajingsangin Saula tungah Pathian sawl dawi a hongtung eka, in sungah a pau bualbual mawka; huan, David in nidanga a hih bang mahin kaihging a tuma; Saulain a teipi a tawi gige hi.
10And it came to pass on the morrow, that the evil spirit from God came upon Saul, and he prophesied in the midst of the house: and David played with his hand, as at other times: and there was a javelin in Saul's hand.
11Huan, Saula in a teipi a khoha, Hua bangah David ka khoh den ding, a chi a. Davidin nih vei a kihepkhiak sana.
11And Saul cast the javelin; for he said, I will smite David even to the wall with it. And David avoided out of his presence twice.
12Huan, akianga TOUPA a om jiakin leh Saula a paisan jiakin David bel Saulain a kihta a.
12And Saul was afraid of David, because the LORD was with him, and was departed from Saul.
13Huaijiakin Saulain amah akipanin a kisuan saka, sang tunga a sepaih heutu dingin a bawla; huan, mipi lakah a lutin a pawt jel hi.
13Therefore Saul removed him from him, and made him his captain over a thousand; and he went out and came in before the people.
14Huan, David bel a hih peuhmah ah kizen takin a gamtang jela; TOUPA lah a kiangah a om hi.
14And David behaved himself wisely in all his ways; and the LORD was with him.
15Huan, Saulain kizen takin a gamtang chih a muh in a kihta mahmah hi.
15Wherefore when Saul saw that he behaved himself very wisely, he was afraid of him.
16Himahleh Israelte leh Judate tengtengin David a it ua; a lak ua luta pawt jel lah ahi ngala.
16But all Israel and Judah loved David, because he went out and came in before them.
17Huan, Saulain David kiangah, ngaiin, ka tanu upajaw Merab na ji dingin ka hon neisak ding; hang takin hon gum peuhmah lechin, TOUPA kidounate douin, a chi a. Saulain, ken jaw a tunga khutkha louin Philistia miten a tungah khutkha jaw uhen, a chi ahi a.
17And Saul said to David, Behold my elder daughter Merab, her will I give thee to wife: only be thou valiant for me, and fight the LORD's battles. For Saul said, Let not mine hand be upon him, but let the hand of the Philistines be upon him.
18Huan, Davidin Saula kiangah, kua ahia ka hiha ka hinna leh Israelte laka ka pa inkuante leng bang ahia a hih ua kumpipa makpa ka hihna ding? A chi a.
18And David said unto Saul, Who am I? and what is my life, or my father's family in Israel, that I should be son in law to the king?
19Himahleh hichi ahia, Saula tanu Merab David toh kitensak a hong hunin Moholath mi Adriel ji dingin a pe mawk hi.
19But it came to pass at the time when Merab Saul's daughter should have been given to David, that she was given unto Adriel the Meholathite to wife.
20Huan, Saula tanu Mikalin David a ita; Saula a hilh ua; huaiin a kipaksak hi.
20And Michal Saul's daughter loved David: and they told Saul, and the thing pleased him.
21Huan, Saulain, a awkna ding thang a honghih theihna ding leh, Philistia miten a tunga khut a khak theihna ding un amah ka hon pe deh, a chi a. Huaijiakin Saulain David kiangah, tuniin ka makpa na hi tuan nawn ding, a chi a.
21And Saul said, I will give him her, that she may be a snare to him, and that the hand of the Philistines may be against him. Wherefore Saul said to David, Thou shalt this day be my son in law in the one of the twain.
22Huchiin Saulain a sikhate thu a piaa, a simthamin David houpih unla, ngaiin, kumpipa na tungah a kipak mahmaha, a sikhate tengtengin leng nang a hon it uh; huchiin kumpipa makpa dingin omin, chi un, a chi a.
22And Saul commanded his servants, saying, Commune with David secretly, and say, Behold, the king hath delight in thee, and all his servants love thee: now therefore be the king's son in law.
23Huan, Saula sikhaten huai thu David bil ah a gen ua. Huan, Davidin, mi tagah leh kuamah ngaihsak ngellouh kei bang a dingin kumpipa makpa hih thil namai dingin na sep ua hia? a chi a.
23And Saul's servants spake those words in the ears of David. And David said, Seemeth it to you a light thing to be a king's son in law, seeing that I am a poor man, and lightly esteemed?
24Huan, Saula sikhaten, Davidin huchibangin a chi hi, chiin a hilh ua.
24And the servants of Saul told him, saying, On this manner spake David.
25Huan, Saulain David kiangah hichibangin na chi ding uh, kumpipan kumpipa melma phu lakna dingin Philistia mite zekvun ja khat chih louh man bangmah a deih kai, a chi, chi un, a chi a. Saulain David lah Philistia mite khuta sihsak lungsimin a nei bikbek a.
25And Saul said, Thus shall ye say to David, The king desireth not any dowry, but an hundred foreskins of the Philistines, to be avenged of the king's enemies. But Saul thought to make David fall by the hand of the Philistines.
26Huan, a sikhaten huai thu David a hilh uleh kumpipa makpa hih David a kipak mahmah hi.
26And when his servants told David these words, it pleased David well to be the king's son in law: and the days were not expired.
27Huan, ni chiamte a bei nai keia; David leh a mite a thou ua, Philistia mite janih a va that ua; huan Davidin a zek vun uh a honpuaa, huchiin kumpipa makpa a hih theihna dingin kumpipa tuh kim takin a pia a, Huchiin Saulain a tanu Mikal ji dingin a peta hi.
27Wherefore David arose and went, he and his men, and slew of the Philistines two hundred men; and David brought their foreskins, and they gave them in full tale to the king, that he might be the king's son in law. And Saul gave him Michal his daughter to wife.
28Huan, Saulain David kiangah Pathian a om chih a thei teltaa; huan, Saula tanu Mikalin amah a it hi.
28And Saul saw and knew that the LORD was with David, and that Michal Saul's daughter loved him.
29Huchiin Saulain David a kihta semsem hi; Saula bel David melma ahi denta hi.Huchiin Philistiate miliante a vakuan khe sek ua; huan, hichi ahi a, a kuan khiak peuhmah chiang un David bel Saula sikha tengteng sanga kizenin a gamtang jel a; huchiin a min a tawisang mahmah uhi.
29And Saul was yet the more afraid of David; and Saul became David's enemy continually.
30Huchiin Philistiate miliante a vakuan khe sek ua; huan, hichi ahi a, a kuan khiak peuhmah chiang un David bel Saula sikha tengteng sanga kizenin a gamtang jel a; huchiin a min a tawisang mahmah uhi.
30Then the princes of the Philistines went forth: and it came to pass, after they went forth, that David behaved himself more wisely than all the servants of Saul; so that his name was much set by.
