1And after these things, Naboth the Jezrahelite, who was in Jezrahel, had at that time a vineyard near the palace of Achab king of Samaria.
1He hno he a om phoeiah, Jezreel kah Samaria manghai Ahab bawkim taengah Jezreel Naboth kah misurdum om.
2And Achab spoke to Naboth, saying: Give me thy vineyard, that I may make me a garden of herbs, because it is nigh, and adjoining to my house, and I will give thee for it a better vineyard: or if thou think it more convenient for thee, I will give thee the worth of it in money.
2Te dongah Ahab loh Naboth te, “Na misurdum te kai taengah m'pae lamtah, ka im neh a yoei ah kai ham toi-an dum la om saeh. Te yueng la nang taengah te lakah aka then misurdum khaw na mik ah aka then kam paek bitni. A phu la nang te tangka khaw kam paek bitni,” a ti nah.
3Naboth answered him: The Lord be merciful to me, and not let me give thee the inheritance of my fathers.
3Naboth loh Ahab te, “A pa rhoek kah rho nang taengla kam paek ham he, kamah lamkah neh BOEIPA lamlong khaw savisava,” a ti nah.
4And Achab came into his house angry and fretting, because of the word that Naboth the Jezrahelite had spoken to him, saying: I will not give thee the inheritance of my fathers. And casting himself upon his bed, he turned away his face to the wall, and would eat no bread.
4Jezreel Naboth loh anih te a voek tih, “A pa rhoek kah rho he nang taengla kam pae mahpawh,” a ti nah ol dongah Ahab khaw a im te rhihnun cukduk neh thintoek la a pha. A baiphaih dongah a yalh neh a maelhmai a bueng tih buh khaw ca pawh.
5And Jezabel his wife went in to him, and said to him: What is the matter that thy soul is so grieved? and why eatest thou no bread?
5A yuu Jezebel te a taengla a pawk pah vaengah tah anih te, “Na mueihla he metlam a rhihnun cukduk tih buh na caak pawh,” a ti nah.
6And he answered her: I spoke to Naboth the Jezrahelite, and said to him: Give me thy vineyard, and take money for it: or if it please thee, I will give thee a better vineyard for it. And he said: I will not give thee my vineyard.
6Jezebel te, “Jezreel Naboth te ka voek tih amah taengah, 'Na misurdum te kai taengah tangka la han yoi mai. Na huem mak atah a yueng misurdum khaw nang te kam paek bitni,’ ka ti nah. Tedae, 'Ka misurdum te nang taengah kam pae mahpawh,’ a ti,” a ti nah.
7Then Jezabel his wife said to him: Thou art of great authority indeed, and governest well the kingdom of Israel. Arise, and eat bread, and be of good cheer, I will give thee the vineyard of Naboth the Jezrahelite.
7Te dongah anih te a yuu Jezebel loh, “Nang he Israel soah mangpa khaw na bi coeng ta. Thoo, buh ca lamtah na lungbuei voelphoeng sak. Kai loh Jezreel Naboth kah misurdum te nang ham kang khueh bitni,” a ti nah.
8So she wrote letter’s in Achab’s name, and sealed them with his ring, and sent them to the ancients, and the chief men that were in his city, and that dwelt with Naboth.
8Te phoeiah Ahab ming neh cabu a daek tih a kutbuen neh a daeng thil. Cabu dongkah ca te a ham rhoek taengah neh a khopuei kah Naboth taengah kho aka sa hlangcoelh taengla a pat.
9And this was the tenor of the letters: Proclaim a fast, and make Naboth sit among the chief of the people,
9Cabu khuikah a daek dongah, “Yaehnah te khue uh lamtah Naboth te pilnam kah a lu la ngol saeh.
10And suborn two men, sons of Belial against him, and let them bear false witness: that he hath blasphemed God and the king: and then carry him out, and stone him, and so let him die.
10Anih hmai ah aka muen ca rhoi hlang panit ngol saeh. Te vaengah anih te hih saeh lamtah, 'Pathen neh manghai yoethen pae nawn,'ti nah saeh lamtah khuen saeh. Te phoeiah anih te dae lamtah duek saeh,” a ti nah.
11And the men of his city, the ancients and nobles, that dwelt with him in the city, did as Jezabel had commanded them, and as it was written in the letters which she had sent to them:
11A khopuei hlang a hamca rhoek neh a khopuei khuikah khosa hlangcoelh rhoek long khaw Jezebel loh amih ham cabu neh a daek tih amih taegla a pat dongkah a uen bangla a saii uh.
12They proclaimed a fast, and made Naboth sit among the chief of the people.
12Yaehnah te a hoe uh tih Naboth te pilnam kah a lu la a ngol sak uh.
13And bringing two men, sons of the devil, they made them sit against him: and they, like men of the devil, bore witness against him before the people, saying: Naboth hath blasphemed God and the king: wherefore they brought him forth without the city, and stoned him to death.
13Te vaengah hlang muen ca rhoi te ha pawk tih anih hmai ah ngol rhoi van. Hlang muen rhoi loh Naboth te pilnam hmai ah a laipai thil rhoi tih, “Naboth loh Pathen neh manghai yoethen a paek oe,” a ti rhoi. Te phoeiah tah khopuei vongvoel la a khuen uh tih lungto neh a dae uh dongah Naboth te duek.
14And they sent to Jezabel, saying: Naboth is stoned, and is dead.
14Te phoeiah Jezebel taengla a tueih uh tih, “Naboth a dae uh tih duek coeng,” a ti nah.
15And it came to pass when Jezabel heard that Naboth was stoned, and dead, that she said to Achab: Arise and take possession of the vineyard of Naboth the Jezrahelite, who would not agree with thee, and give it thee for money: for Naboth is not alive, but dead.
15Naboth a dae uh tih a duek te Jezebel loh a yaak van neh Jezebel long khaw Ahab taengah, “Thoo, Jezreel Naboth kah misurdum te pang laeh. Nang taengah tangka la paek ham khaw a aal dongah Naboth hing pawt tih duek coeng,” a ti nah.
16And when Achab heard this, to wit, that Naboth was dead, he arose, and went down to the vineyard of Naboth the Jezrahelite, to take possession of it.
16Naboth a duek te Ahab loh a yaak neh Ahab mah khaw thoo tih Jezreel Naboth kah misurdum te pang ham suntla.
17And the word of the Lord came to Elias the Thesbite, saying:
17Te vaengah BOEIPA ol te Tishbi Elijah taengla pawk tih,
18Arise, and go down to meet Achab king of Israel, who is in Samaria: behold he is going down to the vineyard of Naboth, to take possession of it:
18“Thoo, Samaria kah Israel manghai Ahab doe la suntla laeh. Naboth kah misurdum pang hamla suntla lako ke.
19And thou shalt speak to him, saying: Thus saith the Lord: Thou hast slain, moreover also thou hast taken possession. And after these words thou shalt add: Thus saith the Lord: In this place, wherein the dogs have licked the blood of Naboth, they shall lick thy blood also.
19Anih te thui pah lamtah, 'BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Na ngawn tih na pang bal nama?' ti nah. Te phoeiah anih te thui pah lamtah, 'BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Naboth thii ui loh a laeh nah hmuen ah nang khaw na thii te ui loh a laeh van ni,'ti nah,” a ti nah.
20And Achab said to Elias: Hast thou found me thy enemy? He said: I have found thee, because thou art sold, to do evil in the sight of the Lord.
20Ahab loh Elijah te, “Kai he 'Ka thunkha ' la nan hmuh nama?” a ti nah. Te dongah, “BOEIPA mik ah boethae saii ham namah na yoih uh dongah kam hmuh mah ta.
21Behold I will bring evil upon thee, and I will cut down thy posterity, and I will kill of Achab him that pisseth against the wall, and him that is shut up, and the last in Israel.
21Kai loh nang soah boethae kang khuen rhoe kang khuen coeng he. Namah hnukah kan dom sak vetih pangbueng aka yun thil khaw, Israel khuikah a khoh neh a hnoo khaw Ahab taeng lamloh ka saii ni.
22And I will make thy house like the house of Jeroboam the son of Nabat, and like the house of Baasa the son of Ahias: for what thou hast done, to provoke me to anger, and for making Israel to sin.
22Israel te konoinah ham na veet tih na tholh sak dongah nang imkhui te Nebat capa Jeroboam imkhui bangla, Ahijah capa Baasha imkhui bangla kang khueh ni.
23And of Jezabel also the Lord spoke, saying: The dogs shall eat Jezabel in the field of Jezrahel.
23BOEIPA loh Jezebel kawng khaw a thui tih, “Jezebel te Jezreel rhalmahvong ah ui loh a sok ni, ' a ti.
24If Achab die in the city, the dogs shall eat him: but if he die in the field, the birds of the air shall eat him.
24Ahab lamkah he khopuei ah aka duek te ui loh a caak vetih kohong ah aka duek te vaan kah vaa loh a caak ni.
25Now there was not such another as Achab, who was sold to do evil in the sight of the Lord: for his wife Jezabel set him on,
25BOEIPA mik ah boethae saii ham amah aka yoi uh Ahab bang he a om moenih. Anih he a yuu Jezebel loh a vueh bal.
26And he became abominable, insomuch that he followed the idols which the Amorrhites had made, whom the Lord destroyed before the face of the children of Israel.
26BOEIPA loh Israel ca rhoek mikhmuh lamkah a haek Amori loh a cungkuem la a saii mueirhol hnukah a pongpa te bahoeng a tuei,” a ti nah.
27And when Achab had heard these words, he rent his garments, and put haircloth upon his flesh, and fasted and slept in sackcloth, and walked with his head cast down.
27Ahab loh he ol he a yaak van neh a himbai te a phen tih a pumsa dongah tlamhni a bai, a yaeh neh tlamhni dongah yalh tih yuepyuep cet.
28And the word of the Lord came to Elias the Thesbite, saying:
28Te vaengah Tishbi Elijah taengah BOEIPA ol ha pawk tih,
29Hast thou not seen Achab humbled before me? therefore, because he hath humbled himself for my sake, I will not bring the evil in his days, but in his son’s days will I bring the evil upon his house.
29“Ka mikhmuh ah Ahab a kunyun ke na hmuh nama? Ka mikhmuh ah a kunyun bangla amah tue ah yoethae ka khuen rhoe ka khuen pah mahpawh. A capa tue vaengah tah a imkhui ah yoethae ka khuen pah ni,” a ti nah.
