1Te phoeiah, Samuel loh situi tui-um te a loh tih a lu soah a suep pah. Anih te a mok tih, “Amah kah rho soah nang he BOEIPA loh rhaengsang la n'koelh pai moenih a?
1Then Samuel took a flask of oil, poured it on Saul’s head, kissed him, and said, “Has not the LORD anointed you ruler over His inheritance?
2Tihnin ah kai taeng lamloh na cet vetih Zelzah kah Benjamin khorhi Rakhel phuel ah hlang panit na hmuh ni. Te vaengah tlap hamla na caeh thil laak rhoek a hmuh te nang taengah a thui bitni. Laak kawng te na pa loh a toeng tih nangmih rhoi ham a mawn dongah, “Ka capa ham balae ka saii eh?,’ a ti coeng ke.
2When you leave me today, you will find two men at Rachel’s tomb in Zelzah on the border of Benjamin. They will say to you, ‘The donkeys you seek have been found, and now your father has stopped worrying about the donkeys and started worrying about you, asking, “What should I do about my son?”’
3Te lamloh voelh na poeng vaengah Tabor thingnu la na pawk vetih Bethel Pathen taengla aka cet hlang pathum te na hum uh ni. Pakhat loh maae ca pumthum a phueih ni, pakhat loh buh hluem pathum a phueih ni, pakhat loh misurtui tuitang pakhat a phueih ni.
3Then you will go on from there until you come to the Oak of Tabor. Three men going up to God at Bethel will meet you there, one carrying three young goats, another carrying three loaves of bread, and another carrying a skin of wine.
4Te vaengah nang te sading la n'dawt vetih vaidam hluem nit m'paek uh tekhaw amih kut lamloh doe pah.
4They will greet you and give you two loaves of bread, which you will accept from their hands.
5Te phoeiah Philisti khohung rhoek om nah Pathen som na pha ni. Khopuei te na paan vaengah hmuensang lamkah aka suntla tonghma hlop at te na hum uh ni. Amih hmai ah thangpa, kamrhing, phitphoet, rhotoeng neh aka tonghma rhoek te om ni.
5After that you will come to Gibeah of God, where the Philistines have an outpost. As you approach the city, you will meet a group of prophets coming down from the high place, preceded by harps, tambourines, flutes, and lyres, and they will be prophesying.
6Te vaengah BOEIPA Mueihla tah nang soah thaihtak bitni. Amih taengah na tonghma pah vetih hlang te a tloe la na maelh ni.
6Then the Spirit of the LORD will rush upon you, and you will prophesy with them; and you will be transformed into a different person.
7Te vaengah miknoek he nang taengah thoeng rhoe thoeng ni. Pathen te nang taengah a om coeng dongah na kut a hmuh te nang ham saii la om ni.
7When these signs have come, do as the occasion demands, for God is with you.
8Kai hmai ah Gilgal la ana suntla laeh. Kai khaw a hnin rhih dongah rhoepnah hmueih ngawn ham neh hmueihhlutnah tloeng ham nang taengla ka suntla van ni. Nang taengla ka pawk duela n'rhing lamtah na saii koi te namah taengah kan tueng bitni,” a ti nah.
8And you shall go before me to Gilgal, and surely I will come to you to offer burnt offerings and to sacrifice peace offerings. Wait seven days until I come to you and show you what you are to do.”
9Te dongah Samuel taeng lamloh nong ham a nam a hooi vaengah anih ham te Pathen loh lungbuei a tloe la vik a maelh dongah amah khohnin dongah miknoek khaw boeih thoeng.
9As Saul turned to leave Samuel, God changed Saul’s heart, and all the signs came to pass that day.
10Som ah tah anih aka doe ham tonghma rhui at te tarha ha pawk uh. Pathen Mueihla loh anih te a thaihtak sak dongah amih lakli ah a tonghma pah.
10When Saul and his servant arrived at Gibeah, a group of prophets met him. Then the Spirit of God rushed upon him, and he prophesied along with them.
11Tonghma rhoek taengah a tonghma van te hlaemvai lamkah anih aka ming boeih loh a hmuh uh. Pilnam khuiah khaw hlang loh a hui taengah, “Kish capa te metlam a om te, tonghma rhoek taengah Saul om noek van a?,” a ti uh.
11All those who had formerly known Saul and saw him prophesying with the prophets asked one another, “What has happened to the son of Kish? Is Saul also among the prophets?”
12Tedae te lamkah hlang loh a doo tih, “bangla a thoeng coeng atah ulae a napa?, Saul khaw tonghma rhoek khuikah a?” a ti nah.
12Then a man who lived there replied, “And who is their father?” So the saying became a proverb: “Is Saul also among the prophets?”
13A tonghma te a toeng phoeiah hmuensang a paan.
13And when Saul had finished prophesying, he went up to the high place.
14Te vaengah Saul kah a napanoe loh Saul neh a taengca te, “Melam na caeh rhoi,” a ti nah hatah, “Laak nucaphung te ka tlap dae ka hmuh pawt dongah Samuel taengla ka pawk rhoi,” a ti nah.
14Now Saul’s uncle asked him and his servant, “Where did you go?” “To look for the donkeys,” Saul replied. “When we saw they were not to be found, we went to Samuel.”
15Te dongah Saul kah napanoe loh, “Samuel loh nangmih rhoi taengah a thui te kai taengah thui lah,” a ti nah.
15“Tell me,” Saul’s uncle asked, “what did Samuel say to you?”
16Te dongah a napanoe te Saul loh, “Laak nucaphung te a hmuh uh tila kaimih rhoi taengah a thui rhoela a thui coeng,” a ti nah. Tedae Samuel loh Saul taengah a thui mangpa olka te tah thui pah pawh.
16And Saul replied, “He assured us that the donkeys had been found.” But Saul did not tell his uncle what Samuel had said about the kingship.
17Te phoeiah pilnam te Samuel loh Mizpah kah BOEIPA taengla a khue.
17After this, Samuel summoned the people to the LORD at Mizpah
18Te phoeiah Israel ca rhoek te, “Israel Pathen BOEIPA loh, 'Egypt lamkah Israel aka caeh puei tih nangmih aka nen Egypt kut neh ram tom kut lamkah nangmih aka huul khaw kai ni.
18and said to the Israelites, “This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: ‘I brought Israel up out of Egypt, and I rescued you from the hands of the Egyptians and of all the kingdoms that oppressed you.’
19Tedae nangmih kah yoethae cungkuem neh citcai lamloh nangmih aka khang na Pathen te tihnin ah nangmih loh na hnawt uh tih, “Kaimih soah manghai pakhat tah na khueh mako,” na ti uh. Te dongah namamih koca rhoek loh a thawng thawng la BOEIPA mikhmuh ah pai uh laeh,’ a ti,” a ti nah.
19But today you have rejected your God, who saves you from all your troubles and afflictions, and you have said to Him, ‘No, set a king over us.’ Now therefore present yourselves before the LORD by your tribes and clans.”
20Israel koca rhoek boeih te Samuel loh a paan tih Benjamin koca te a tuuk.
20Thus Samuel had all the tribes of Israel come forward, and the tribe of Benjamin was selected.
21Te phoeiah Benjamin koca te a cako, a cako la, a nawn tih Matri cako te a tuuk. Te vaengah a tuuk tangtae Kish capa Saul te a toem uh dae hmu pawh.
21Then he had the tribe of Benjamin come forward by its clans, and the clan of Matri was selected. Finally, Saul son of Kish was selected. But when they looked for him, they could not find him.
22Te dongah BOEIPA taengah, “Tekah hlang te hela ha pawk hlan a?” tila koep a dawt uh. Tedae BOEIPA loh, “Hnopai khuiah amah thuh uh lahko te,” a ti nah.
22So again they inquired of the LORD, “Has the man come here yet?” And the LORD replied, “Behold, he has hidden himself among the baggage.”
23Te dongah yong uh tih Saul te a loh uh. Te vaengah pilnam lakli ah pai hang dae a laengpang lamloh a so hang mah pilnam boeih lakah sang.
23So they ran and brought Saul, and when he stood among the people, he was a head taller than any of the others.
24Te phoeiah Pilnam pum te Samuel loh, “BOEIPA loh anih a coelh he na hmuh uh maco? Pilnam boeih khuiah anih bang a om moenih,” a ti nah. Te vaengah pilnam te boeih yuhui uh tih, “Manghai tah hing pai saeh,” a ti uh.
24Samuel said to all the people, “Do you see the one the LORD has chosen? There is no one like him among all the people.” And all the people shouted, “Long live the king!”
25Te phoeiah mangpa kah laitloeknah te Samuel loh pilnam ham a thui pah. Cabu dongah khaw a daek tih BOEIPA hmai ah a tloeng. Te daengah pilnam pum te Samuel loh a im la boeih a tueih.
25Then Samuel explained to the people the rights of kingship. He wrote them on a scroll and laid it up before the LORD. And Samuel sent all the people away, each to his own home.
26Saul khaw Gibeah kah amah im la a caeh hatah Pathen loh a lungbuei a bi pah tangtae tatthai hlang te tah anih taengla cet uh.
26Saul also went to his home in Gibeah, and the men of valor whose hearts God had touched went with him.
27Tedae aka muen ca rhoek long tah, “Metlamlae mamih n'khang thai eh?” a ti uh. Anih te a hnaep uh tih anih te khosaa khaw thak uh pawt dae olmueh la a om tak.
27But some worthless men said, “How can this man save us?” So they despised him and brought him no gifts; but Saul remained silent about it.
