Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)
1Ammon acaeng Nahash loe caeh moe, Gilead prae Jabesh vangpui taengah atai; Jabesh vangpui ih kaminawk boih mah Nahash khaeah, Kaicae hoi angdaeh lokkamhaih sah si, to tih nahaeloe nangcae ih tok to ka sak o han, tiah a naa o.
1And it came to pass about a month after this that Naas, the Ammonite came up, and began to fight against Jabes Galaad. And all the men of Jabes said to Naas: Make a covenant with us, and we will serve thee.
2Toe Ammon acaeng Nahash mah nihcae khaeah, Nangcae ih bantang mik to ka taprok moe, Israel kaminawk boih azathaih ka tongsak pacoengah ni, nangcae hoi angdaeh lokkamhaih ka sak han vop, tiah a naa.
2And Naas the Ammonite answered them: On this condition will I make a covenant with you, that I may pluck out all your right eyes, and make you a reproach in all Israel.
3Jabesh ih kacoehtanawk mah anih khaeah, Israel prae thung boih thaisak han laicaeh patoeh hanah, ni sarihto thung atue na paek ah, kaicae abomh han kami maeto doeh om ai nahaeloe, nangcae khaeah kang ap o halat han hmang, tiah a naa o.
3And the ancients of Jabes said to him: Allow us seven days, that we may send messengers to all the coasts of Israel: and if there be no one to defend us, we will come out to thee.
4Saul ohhaih Gibeah vangpui ah laicaehnawk angzoh o moe, kaminawk khaeah tamthang to thuih pae o; to naah kaminawk loe tha hoi qah o.
4The messengers therefore came to Gabaa of Saul: and they spoke these words in the hearing of the people: and all the people lifted up their voices, and wept.
5Khenah, Saul loe maitaw huihaih lawk hoiah amlaem, Tih nathaih maw tongh o moe, kaminawk qah o loe? tiah a dueng. To naah Jabesh vangpui ih kaminawk mah thuih o ih tamthang to thuih pae o patoeng.
5And behold Saul came, following oxen out of the field, and he said: What aileth the people that they weep? And they told him the words of the men of Jabes.
6Saul mah to tamthang to thaih naah, Sithaw Muithla anih nuiah angzoh, anih loe paroeai palungphui.
6And the spirit of the Lord came upon Saul, when he had heard these words, and his anger was exceedingly kindled.
7Maitaw mah ruet ih thing to anih mah lak moe, takroek phaeng pacoengah, Israel prae boih ah laicaehnawk to patoeh, misatuk hanah Saul hoi Samuel hnukah bang ai kaminawk loe, anih ih maitaw to hae tiah takroek pae tih, tiah a thuisak. To naah Sithaw zithaih kaminawk nuiah phak pongah, kaminawk loe poekhaih maeto hoiah tacawt o.
7And taking both the oxen, he cut them in pieces, and sent them into all the coasts of Israel by messengers, saying: Whosoever shall not come forth, and follow Saul and Samuel, so shall it be done to his oxen. And the fear of the Lord fell upon the people, and they went out as one man.
8Saul mah Bezek vangpui ah nihcae to kroek naah, Israel kaminawk sang cumvai thumto oh o moe, Judah kaminawk sang quithumto oh o.
8And he numbered them in Bezec: and there were of the children of Israel three hundred thousand: and of the men of Juda thirty thousand.
9Nihcae mah laicaeh ah angzo kaminawk khaeah, Gilead prae Jabesh vangpui kaminawk khaeah, khawnbang ni athun naah nangcae loe pahlong ah na om o tih, tiah thuih paeh, tiah a naa o. Laicaehnawk loe amlaem o moe, to lok to Jabesh vangpui ih kaminawk khaeah thuih pae o, to naah nihcae loe anghoe o.
9And they said to the messengers that came: Thus shall you say to the men of Jabes Galaad: Tomorrow, when the sun shall be hot, you shall have relief. The messengers therefore came, and told the men of Jabes: and they were glad.
10To pongah Jebesh vangpui ih kaminawk mah, Ammon kaminawk khaeah, Khawnbang ah nangcae khae kang ap o han hmang, to naah nangcae mah sak han hoih, tiah na poek o ih baktih toengah sah oh, tiah a naa o.
10And they said: In the morning we will come out to you: and you shall do what you please with us.
11Khawnbangah loe Saul mah kaminawk to abu thumto ah tapraek; akhawnbang ah loe nihcae ataihaih im to muk o moe, ni athun khoek to Ammon kaminawk to hum o; kaloih kaminawk loe maeto hoi maeto nawnto om o thai ai, ampraek o phang.
11And it came to pass, when the morrow was come that Saul put the people in three companies: and he came into the midst of the camp in the morning watch, and he slew the Ammonites until the day grew hot, and the rest were scattered, so that two of them were not left together.
12Kaminawk mah Samuel khaeah, Saul mah aicae uk tih boeh maw, tiah thui kami loe mi maw? To kaminawk to hae ah hoi ah, ka hum o han, tiah a naa o.
12And the people said to Samuel: Who is he that said: Shall Saul reign over us? Bring the men and we will kill them.
13Toe Saul mah, Vaihniah Angraeng mah Israel to pahlong pongah, mi doeh humhaih om mak ai, tiah a naa.
13And Saul said: No man shall be killed this day, because the Lord this day hath wrought salvation in Israel:
14To naah Samuel mah kaminawk khaeah, Angzo oh, Gilgal ah caeh o si loe, kangtha siangpahrang ukhaih prae to sah si, tiah a naa.
14And Samuel said to the people: Come and let us go to Galgal, and let us renew the kingdom there.
15To pongah kaminawk boih Gilgal vangpui ah caeh o moe, Saul to Angraeng hmaa ah siangpahrang ah suek o. To ah angdaeh angbawnhaih to Angraeng hmaa ah a sak o; to ah Saul hoi Israel kaminawk boih loe paroeai anghoe o.
15And all the people went to Galgal, and there they made Saul king before the Lord in Galgal, and they sacrificed there victims of peace before the Lord. And there Saul and all the men of Israel rejoiced exceedingly.
