1Kum a thok tih manghai a thoh tue vaengah David loh Joab neh a taengkah a sal rhoek, Israel pum te a tueih tih Ammon ca rhoek te a thup. Te vaengah Rabbah khaw a dum uh dae David tah Jerusalem ah om.
1And it came to pass at the return of the year, at the time when kings go forth to war, that David sent Joab and his servants with him, and all Israel, and they spoiled the children of Ammon, and besieged Rabba: but David remained in Jerusalem.
2Kholaeh tue a pha vaengah David tah a thingkong lamloh thoo tih manghai im kah imphu ah cet. Te vaengah huta pakhat tui a hluk te imphu lamloh a hmuh. Tekah huta te a mueimae bahoeng then.
2In the mean time it happened that David arose from his bed after noon, and walked upon the roof of the king’s house: and he saw from the roof of his house a woman washing herself, over against him: and the woman was very beautiful.
3David loh hlang a tueih tih huta te a cae vaengah tah, “Eliam nu Bathsheba pawt nim ke, Khitti Uriah yuu la ke,” a ti nah.
3And the king sent, and inquired who the woman was. And it was told him, that she was Bethsabee the daughter of Eliam, the wife of Urias the Hethite.
4Te dongah David loh puencawn a tueih tih anih te a loh phai. Te phoeiah amah taengla ha pawk vaengah huta te vik a yalh puei. Te phoeiah huta loh a tihnai lamloh a ciim tih amah im la mael.
4And David sent messengers, and took her, and she came in to him, and he slept with her: and presently she was purified from her uncleanness:
5Tedae huta te a vawn vaengah ol a tah tih David taengla puen. Te vaengah kai ka vawn coeng,” a ti nah.
5And she returned to her house having conceived. And she sent and told David, and said: I have conceived.
6Te dongah David loh Joab taengah ol a tah tih, “Khitti Uriah te kai taengla han tueih,” a ti nah vanbangla Joab loh Uriah te David taengla a tueih.
6And David sent to Joab, saying: Send me Urias the Hethite. And Joab sent Urias to David.
7A taengla Uriah a pawk vaengah David loh Joab kah sading kawng, pilnam kah sading kawng, caem kah sading kawng te a dawt.
7And Urias came to David. And David asked how Joab did, and the people, and how the war was carried on.
8Te phoeiah David loh Uriah te, “Na im te suntla lamtah na kho yuut laeh,” a ti nah. Te vanbangla manghai im lamloh Uriah a nong neh a hnukah manghai kah buham loh a vai.
8And David said to Urias: Go into thy house, and wash thy feet. And Urias went out from the king’s house, and there went out after him a mess of meat from the king.
9Tedae Uriah tah a boei rhoek kah sal tom neh manghai im kah thohka ah yalh tih amah im la suntla pawh.
9But Urias slept before the gate of the king’s house, with the other servants of his lord, and went not down to his own house.
10Te vaengah David taengla puen uh tih, “Uriah te amah im la a suntlak moenih,” a ti na uh. Te dongah David loh Uriah te, “Yiin lamkah na pawk moenih a? Balae tih na im te na paan pawh,” a ti nah.
10And it was told David by some that said: Urias went not to his house. And David said to Urias: Didst thou not come from thy journey? why didst thou not go down to thy house?
11Uriah loh David taengah, “Thingkawng khaw, Israel neh Judah khaw, dungtlungim ah aka om khaw, ka boeipa Joab neh ka boeipa kah a sal rhoek khaw, khohmuen hoeng ah rhaeh uh. Te vaengah kai loh kamah im ah caak ham neh ok hamla, ka yuu taengah yalh hamla, ka cet aya? Na hingnah neh na hinglu kah hingnah dongah hekah olka he tah ka rhoi mahpawh,” a ti nah.
11And Urias said to David: The ark of God and Israel and Juda dwell in tents, and my lord Joab and the servants of my lord abide upon the face of the earth: and shall I go into my house, to eat and to drink, and to sleep with my wife? By thy welfare and by the welfare of thy soul I will not do this thing.
12David loh Uriah te, “Hnin at khaw he ah om dae lamtah thangvuen ah kan tueih eh?,” a ti nah. Te dongah Uriah khaw tekah khohnin neh a vuen ah tah Jerusalem ah kho a sak.
12Then David said to Urias: Tarry here today, and tomorrow I will send thee away. Urias tarried in Jerusalem that day and the next.
13Te phoeiah anih te David loh a khue. A mikhmuh ah buh a cah tih a rhuihmil la a ok sak. Tedae kholaeh ah tah cet tih a boei kah sal rhoek taengah amah kah thingkong dongah yalh. Te dongah amah im te paan pawh.
13And David called him to eat and to drink before him, and he made him drunk: and he went out in the evening, and slept on his couch with the servants of his lord, and went not down into his house.
14Mincang a pha vaengah David loh Joab ham caa a daek pah tih Uriah kut ah a pat.
14And when the morning was come, David wrote a letter to Joab: and sent it by the hand of Urias,
15Ca dongah a daek pah tih, “Uriah te caemtloek tlungluen hmai ah khueh lamtah a hnuk lamloh mael tak, te vaengah ngawn uh saeh lamtah duek saeh,” a ti nah.
15Writing in the letter: Set ye Urias in the front of the battle, where the fight is strongest: and leave ye him, that he may be wounded and die.
16Joab loh khopuei te a om thil tih a dawn vaengah tatthai hlang rhoek om nah te a ming. Te dongah te hmuen ah te Uriah a khueh.
16Wherefore as Joab was besieging the city, he put Urias in the place where he knew the bravest men were.
17Khopuei hlang rhoek ha pawk uh tih Joab te a vathoh hatah David sal lamkah pilnam te cungku tih Khitti Uriah khaw duek.
17And the men coming out of the city, fought against Joab, and there fell some of the people of the servants of David, and Urias the Hethite was killed also.
18Te phoeiah Joab loh hlang a tueih tih caemtloek vaengkah olka boeih te David taengla a yaak sak.
18Then Joab sent, and told David all things concerning the battle.
19Puencawn te a uen tih, “Caemtloek vaengkah olka boeih manghai taengah thui pah ham te na khah vaengah,
19And he charged the messenger, saying: When thou hast told all the words of the battle to the king,
20manghai kah a kosi te phuet tih namah te, “Vathoh ham te balae tih khopuei la na thoeih? Vongtung dong lamloh ng'kah ni tila na ming uh moenih a?
20If thou see him to be angry, and he shall say: Why did you approach so near to the wall to fight? knew you not that many darts are thrown from above off the wall?
21Jerubbesheth capa Abimelek aka ngawn te unim? Vongtung dong lamkah sumngol phaklung neh anih aka dae te huta moenih a? Te dongah ni anih te Thebez ah a duek. Balae tih vongtung la na thoeih uh,’ a ti mai ni. Te vaengah, 'Na sal Khitti Uriah khaw duek coeng,’ ti nah,” a ti nah.
21Who killed Abimelech the son of Jerobaal? did not a woman cast a piece of a millstone upon him from the wall, and slew him in Thebes? Why did you go near the wall? Thou shalt say: Thy servant Urias the Hethite is also slain.
22Te dongah puencawn te cet tih a pha vaengah Joab loh anih a tueih te David taengah boeih a thui pah.
22So the messenger departed, and came and told David all that Joab had commanded him.
23Te vaengah puencawn loh David taengah, “Kaimih te hlang loh ng'et tih khohmuen ah kaimih taengla ha thoeng uh. Tedae amih te vongka thohka ah ka mah uh.
23And the messenger said to David: The men prevailed against us, and they came out to us into the field: and we vigorously charged and pursued them even to the gate of the city.
24A kah uh thae vaengah na sal rhoek te vongtung dong lamkah lipom loh a kah, a kah tih manghai kah sal rhoek te duek. Te vaengah na sal Khitti Uriah khaw duek,” a ti nah.
24And the archers shot their arrows at thy servants from off the wall above: and some of the king’s servants are slain, and thy servant Urias the Hethite is also dead.
25David loh puencawn te, “Joab taengah thui pah, tahae kah olka he na mik ah lolh sak boeh, khat khat ngawn tah cunghang loh a yoop rhuem, na caemtloek neh khopuei te namning thil lamtah koengloeng laeh,” a ti nah tih anih te a thaphoh.
25And David said to the messenger: Thus shalt thou say to Joab: Let not this thing discourage thee: for various is the event of war: and sometimes one, sometimes another is consumed by the sword: encourage thy warriors against The city, and exhort them that thou mayest overthrow it.
26Uriah kah a yuu loh a va Uriah a duek te a yaak vaengah a boei te a rhaengsae.
26And the wife of Urias heard that Urias her husband was dead, and she mourned for him.
27Nguekcoinah te a poeng vaengah David loh a tah tih amah im la a det. Te dongah anih yuu la pahoi om tih ca tongpa a cun pah. Tedae David loh BOEIPA kah mikhmuh ah a saii te khoboe thae ni a huet.
27And the mourning being over, David sent and brought her into his house, and she became his wife, and she bore him a son: and this thing which David had done, was displeasing to the Lord.
