1Saul spoke to Jonathan his son and to all his servants, that they should kill David. But Jonathan, Saul’s son, greatly delighted in David.
1Saul mah David hum hanah, a capa Jonathan hoi a tamnanawk boih khaeah lokpaek.
2Jonathan told David, saying, “Saul my father seeks to kill you. Now therefore, please take care of yourself in the morning, live in a secret place, and hide yourself.
2Toe Jonathan mah David to palung parai pongah David khaeah, Kam pa Saul mah nang hum hanah pakrong; to pongah akhawnbang khoek to acoehaih hoiah khosah ah, mi mah hnuk thai ai ih ahmuen ah anghawk ving ah;
3I will go out and stand beside my father in the field where you are, and I will talk with my father about you; and if I see anything, I will tell you.”
3na ohhaih ahmuen lawk ah pa taengah kang doet moe, nang ih akawng to anih khaeah ka thuih han; anih poekhaih to nang khaeah kang thaisak let han hmang, tiah a naa.
4Jonathan spoke good of David to Saul his father, and said to him, “Don’t let the king sin against his servant, against David; because he has not sinned against you, and because his works have been very good toward you;
4Jonathan mah, Ampa Saul khaeah David kawng to kahoih ah thuih pae; anih loe na nuiah kahoih ai hmuen to sah ai, paroeai kahoih hmuen to ang sak pae pongah, siangpahrang mah a tamna David nuiah kahoih ai hmuen to sah hmah nasoe;
5for he put his life in his hand and struck the Philistine, and the LORD worked a great victory for all Israel. You saw it and rejoiced. Why then will you sin against innocent blood, to kill David without a cause?”
5anih loe hinghaih paawt ai ah, Philsitin kami to hum; Angraeng mah Israel kaminawk boih nuiah pahlonghaih to a sak; to hmuen to na hnuk moe, nang hoe boeh. Tipongah zaehaih tidoeh tawn ai kami ih athii to palong moe, David hum han na thuih loe? tiah a naa.
6Saul listened to the voice of Jonathan; and Saul swore, “As the LORD lives, he shall not be put to death.”
6Saul mah Jonathan ih lok to tahngai moe, Angraeng loe hing baktih toengah, David to ka hum mak ai, tiah lokkamhaih a sak.
7Jonathan called David, and Jonathan showed him all those things. Then Jonathan brought David to Saul, and he was in his presence as before.
7To pongah Jonathan mah David to kawk moe, a thuih hoi ih loknawk boih to thuih pae. Jonathan mah David to Saul khaeah caeh haih moe, Saul khaeah canghniah oh ih baktih toengah ohsak let.
8There was war again. David went out and fought with the Philistines, and killed them with a great slaughter; and they fled before him.
8Misa angthawkhaih oh let; to pongah David loe caeh moe, Philistin kaminawk to tuk; kaminawk paroeai a hum pongah, misanawk loe anih hmaa hoiah cawnh o.
9An evil spirit from the LORD was on Saul as he sat in his house with his spear in his hand; and David was playing music with his hand.
9Saul angmah ih im ah anghnut naah, tayae to ban ah sinh, Angraeng khae hoi kasae muithla to a nuiah angzoh pongah, David mah anih hanah katoeng to kruek pae.
10Saul sought to pin David to the wall with the spear, but he slipped away out of Saul’s presence; and he stuck the spear into the wall. David fled and escaped that night.
10Saul mah David to tapang hoi nawnto takhawh hmaek hanah poek; David mah ayae taak ving pongah, Saul mah tayae hoiah tapang to takhawh vawk. To na qum ah David loe cawnh moe, loih ving.
11Saul sent messengers to David’s house to watch him and to kill him in the morning. Michal, David’s wife, told him, saying, “If you don’t save your life tonight, tomorrow you will be killed.”
11Saul mah David to angang moe, anih to akhawn bangah hum hanah, David im ah kami to patoeh; toe David zu Mikal mah, na hinghaih loih thai hanah vaiduem na cawn ai nahaeloe, khawnbangah loe na dueh tih boeh, tiah a naa.
12So Michal let David down through the window. He went away, fled, and escaped.
12To pongah Mikal mah David to thokbuem hoiah anghumsak tathuk, to tiah anih loe cawnh moe, loih ving.
13Michal took the teraphim and laid it in the bed, and put a pillow of goats’ hair at its head and covered it with clothes.
13Mikal mah kami ih krang to lak moe, iihhaih ahmuen ah suek pacoengah kahni hoiah ayaw hmoek; a lu thuem ah maeh mui to suek pae.
14When Saul sent messengers to take David, she said, “He is sick.”
14David naeh hanah Saul mah kami patoeh naah, Mikal mah anih loe ngantui ai, tiah a naa.
15Saul sent the messengers to see David, saying, “Bring him up to me in the bed, that I may kill him.”
15To pacoengah Saul mah David khet hanah kaminawk to patoeh let bae; anih ka hum thai hanah, a iihkhun hoi nawnto kai khaeah na sin oh, tiah a naa.
16When the messengers came in, behold, the teraphim was in the bed, with the pillow of goats’ hair at its head.
16Toe patoeh ih kaminawk imthung ah akun o naah loe, khenah, sakcop ih krang to iihkhun nuiah oh pae lat; luhngoeng suekhaih ahmuen ah doeh maeh mui ni oh sut.
17Saul said to Michal, “Why have you deceived me like this and let my enemy go, so that he has escaped?” Michal answered Saul, “He said to me, ‘Let me go! Why should I kill you?’”
17To naah Saul mah Mikal khaeah, Tipongah hae tiah nang ling moe, ka misa loisak hanah, na patoeh ving loe? tiah a naa.
18Now David fled and escaped, and came to Samuel at Ramah, and told him all that Saul had done to him. He and Samuel went and lived in Naioth.
18David loe cawnh moe, loih pacoengah, Ramah ah Samuel khaeah caeh; Saul mah a nuiah sak ih hmuennawk boih to Samuel khaeah thuih pae. To pacoengah anih hoi Samuel loe Naioth avang ah caeh hoi moe, to ah oh hoi.
19Saul was told, saying, “Behold, David is at Naioth in Ramah.”
19To lok to Saul khaeah thuih pae o; David loe Ramah vangpui peng thungah kaom Naioth avang ah oh, tiah thuih pae o.
20Saul sent messengers to seize David; and when they saw the company of the prophets prophesying, and Samuel standing as head over them, God’s Spirit came on Saul’s messengers, and they also prophesied.
20To pongah David naeh hanah Saul mah kaminawk to patoeh; toe Samuel loe zaehoikung ah angdoet moe, nawnto amkhueng tahmaanawk hoiah lok a thuih o, tiah nihcae mah hnuk o naah, Saul ih kaminawk nuiah Sithaw ih Muithla to angzoh, to naah nihcae mah doeh lok to taphong o toeng.
21When Saul was told, he sent other messengers, and they also prophesied. Saul sent messengers again the third time, and they also prophesied.
21To kawng to Saul khaeah thuih pae o naah; anih mah kalah kaminawk to patoeh let; toe to kaminawk mah doeh lok taphong o toeng. Vaithumto haih ah Saul mah kaminawk to patoeh let; nihcae mah doeh lok to taphong o toeng.
22Then he also went to Ramah, and came to the great well that is in Secu: and he asked, “Where are Samuel and David?” One said, “Behold, they are at Naioth in Ramah.”
22To pacoengah anih loe hnukkhuem koek ah, Ramah vangpui ah caeh moe, Seku avang taeng ih vacong ah phak; to ah Samuel hoi David loe naa ah maw oh hoi? tiah a dueng. Nihcae mah, Khenah, nihnik loe Ramah vangpui peng thung ih Naioth avang ah oh hoi, tiah thuih pae o.
23He went there to Naioth in Ramah. Then God’s Spirit came on him also, and he went on, and prophesied, until he came to Naioth in Ramah.
23To pongah Saul loe Ramah prae thung ih Naioth avang ah caeh; to naah anih nuiah doeh Sithaw ih Muithla to oh moe, loklam caeh nathung, Naioth avang pha ai karoek to anih mah lok to taphong.
24He also stripped off his clothes. He also prophesied before Samuel and lay down naked all that day and all that night. Therefore they say, “Is Saul also among the prophets?”
24A khukbuennawk to angkhring moe, Samuel hmaa ah lok to thuih; to ahmuen ah aqum athun khukbuen om ai ah a iih; to pongah kaminawk mah, Saul doeh tahmaanawk salakah athum toeng maw? tiah thuih o.
