1Now the Philistines fought against Israel: and the men of Israel fled from before the Philistines, and fell down slain on Mount Gilboa.
1Huchi in Philistia miten Israelte a sual ua; huan, Israel mite Philistia mite a kipan a taikek ua, Gilboa tang ah thah in a om zelzul maimah uh.
2The Philistines followed hard on Saul and on his sons; and the Philistines killed Jonathan, and Abinadab, and Malchishua, the sons of Saul.
2Huan, Philistia miten Saula leh a tapa a delhzui vengveng ua; huan, Philistia miten Saula tapate, Jonathan leh Abinadab leh Malkisu a that uh.
3The battle went hard against Saul, and the archers overtook him; and he was greatly distressed by reason of the archers.
3Huan, Saula a nak sual mahmah ua, thalkap miten a delh phata uh; thal kapmite ziak in a lungzing mahmahta hi.
4Then Saul said to his armor bearer, “Draw your sword, and thrust me through with it, lest these uncircumcised come and thrust me through, and abuse me!” But his armor bearer would not; for he was terrified. Therefore Saul took his sword, and fell on it.
4Huchi in Saula in a galvan tawipa kiang ah, na namsau dok inla hon sun pailet in; huchilou in zaw hiai zeksumlouhte a hong pai ding ua, a hong sun pailet ding ua, ka tungah a ki uangsak kha ding uh, a chi a. Himahleh a galvan tawipan a hih nuamkei hi; a lau mahmah ngal a. Huaiziak in Saula in a namsau a la a, a bohta hi.
5When his armor bearer saw that Saul was dead, he likewise fell on his sword, and died with him.
5Huan, a galvan tawipan Saula a si chih a theih in aman leng a namsau a boh teita a, a si khawmta uhi.
6So Saul died, and his three sons, and his armor bearer, and all his men, that same day together.
6Huchi in Saula toh, a tapate thum toh, a galvan tawipa toh, a mite tengteng toh, huai ni in a si khawm vek uh.
7When the men of Israel who were on the other side of the valley, and those who were beyond the Jordan, saw that the men of Israel fled, and that Saul and his sons were dead, they forsook the cities, and fled; and the Philistines came and lived in them.
7Huan, guam gal khat lam a Israel mi omte leh Jordan gal a omten Israel mite a taikek uh chih leh Saula leh a tapate a si uh chih a theih un khuate a pawt khiak san ua, a tai mangta uhi; huan, Philistia miten a valuahta uhi.
8It happened on the next day, when the Philistines came to strip the slain, that they found Saul and his three sons fallen on Mount Gilboa.
8Huan, hichi ahi a a zingsang in Philistiate a gal thahte uh puansilh phelsak ding a a vapai uleh Saula leh a tapate thum Gilboa tang a nasi a vamu ua.
9They cut off his head, and stripped off his armor, and sent into the land of the Philistines all around, to carry the news to the house of their idols, and to the people.
9Huan, a lu a tan ua, a galvan a phel ua, a thu a milim biakna in uh leh mite kianga phuang ding in Philistia gam kimvel ah a khak uh.
10They put his armor in the house of the Ashtaroth; and they fastened his body to the wall of Beth Shan.
10Huan, a galvan bel Astoreth in ah a koih ua; a luang bel Bethsan kulhbang ah a tak uh.
11When the inhabitants of Jabesh Gilead heard concerning him that which the Philistines had done to Saul,
11Huan, Jabes-Gilead a omten Philistia miten Saula a bawldan thu a nazak un,
12all the valiant men arose, and went all night, and took the body of Saul and the bodies of his sons from the wall of Beth Shan; and they came to Jabesh, and burnt them there.
12Mi hangsan tengteng a thou ua, zankhua in a pai ua, Saula luang leh a tapate luang Bethsan kulh bang a kipan a la ua; huan, Jabes a tung ua, huai ah a hal uh.Huan, a guhte uh a la ua, Jabes a tamarisk sing nuai ah a vui ua, huan, ni sagih an a ngawl uh.
13They took their bones, and buried them under the tamarisk tree in Jabesh, and fasted seven days.
13Huan, a guhte uh a la ua, Jabes a tamarisk sing nuai ah a vui ua, huan, ni sagih an a ngawl uh.
