Joshua 7
1 Toe Israel kaminawk loe tangoeng ih hmuennawk pongah, oepthok ah khosah o ai; Judah acaeng thung ih Zerah capa Zabdi, Zabdi capa Karmi, Karmi capa Akhaan mah thoemto hmuennawk to lak; to pongah Angraeng palungphuihaih Israel kaminawk nuiah oh.
And the sons of Israel commit a trespass in the devoted thing, and Achan, son of Carmi, son of Zabdi, son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah, taketh of the devoted thing, and the anger of Jehovah burneth against the sons of Israel.
2 Joshua mah Jeriko vangpui hoiah Bethel ni angyae bangah kaom, Beth-Aven taeng ih Ai vangpui ah kami to patoeh, nihcae khaeah, Caeh oh tahang loe prae to khen oh, tiah a naa. To pongah kaminawk loe caeh o tahang moe, Ai vangpui to khet o.
And Joshua sendeth men from Jericho to Ai, which [is] near Beth-Aven, on the east of Bethel, and speaketh unto them, saying, 'Go up and spy the land;' and the men go up and spy Ai,
3 Kaminawk loe Joshua khae amlaem o let, anih khaeah, Ai vangpui tuk hanah kami boih caeh angai mak ai; vangpui tuk hanah kami sang hnetto maw, sang thumto maw patoeh ah; kami zetta ni oh o, to pongah kaminawk boih patangsak hmah, tiah a naa o.
and they turn back unto Joshua, and say unto him, 'Let not all the people go up; let about two thousand men, or about three thousand men, go up, and they smite Ai; cause not all the people to labour thither; for they [are] few.'
4 To pongah kami sang thumto caeh o tahang; toe nihcae loe Ai vangpui kaminawk hmaa ah cawnh o.
And there go up of the people thither about three thousand men, and they flee before the men of Ai,
5 Ai vangpui ih kaminawk mah nihcae thung ih kami quithum, tarukto hum pae o; nihcae to vangpui khongkha hoi Shebarim karoek to patom o moe, to ahmuen hoi anghumh o tathuk naah hum o pongah, kaminawk ih palungthin loe tui baktiah amkaw.
and the men of Ai smite of them about thirty and six men, and pursue them before the gate unto Shebarim, and they smite them in Morad; and the heart of the people is melted, and becometh water.
6 To naah Joshua loe angmah ih kahni to asih moe, Angraeng ih thingkhong hmaa ah long ah akuep, niduem khoek to to tiah oh; Israel kacoehtanawk doeh anih hoi nawnto to tiah oh o, lu nuiah maiphu ang phuih o.
And Joshua rendeth his garments, and falleth on his face to the earth before the ark of Jehovah till the evening, he and the elders of Israel, and they cause dust to go up on their head.
7 Joshua mah, Aw Angraeng Sithaw, Tipongah kaicae hae Amor kaminawk ban ah paek moe, kaicae humsak hanah, hae kaminawk hae Jordan vapui nang katsak loe? Poeknawmhaih hoiah Jordan vapui yaeh ah ka oh o duem nahaeloe hae tiah om mak ai!
And Joshua saith, 'Ah, Lord Jehovah, why hast Thou at all caused this people to pass over the Jordan, to give us into the hand of the Amorite to destroy us? — and oh that we had been willing — and we dwell beyond the Jordan!
8 Aw Angraeng, Israel kaminawk loe vaihi nihcae ih misanawk mah patom o boeh pongah, kawbangmaw ka tih han boeh?
Oh, Lord, what do I say, after that Israel hath turned the neck before its enemies?
9 Kanaan kaminawk hoi to prae thungah kaom kaminawk mah, to tamthang to thaih o naah, kaicae hae na takui o ueloe, kaicae ih ahmin hae long nui hoiah anghmaa o sak ving tih boeh; to tiah nahaeloe lensawk na hmin hanah kawbangmaw na sak han? tiah a naa.
and the Canaanite and all the inhabitants of the land do hear, and have come round against us, and cut off our name out of the earth; and what dost Thou do for Thy great name?'
10 Angraeng mah Joshua khaeah, Angthawk tahang ah; tipongah long ah na tabok loe?
And Jehovah saith unto Joshua, 'Rise for thee, why [is] this? — thou [art] falling on thy face?
11 Israel kami mah zaehaih sak boeh, pazui o hanah ka paek ih lok to nihcae mah aek o; tangoeng ih hmuen to a lak o, paquk o; aling koehhaih palungthin hoiah angmacae ih hmuenmae salakah a suek o.
Israel hath sinned, and also they have transgressed My covenant which I commanded them, and also taken of the devoted thing, and also stolen, and also deceived, and also put [it] among their vessels,
12 To pongah Israel kaminawk loe tangoeng ih kami ah oh o moe, angmacae misa hmaa ah angdoe o thai ai; hnukbang ah a cawnh o boeh; nangcae thungah kaom tangoeng ih kami to na hum o ai karoek to, nangcae khaeah ka om mak ai boeh.
and the sons of Israel have not been able to stand before their enemies; the neck they turn before their enemies, for they have become a devoted thing; I add not to be with you — if ye destroy not the devoted thing out of your midst.
13 Angthawk loe, kaminawk to amprikcaisak ah; khawnbang hanah nangmacae hoi nangmacae to amprikcai oh; Israel Angraeng Sithaw mah hae tiah lokthuih; Aw Israel, nangcae salakah tangoeng ih hmuen to oh; to tangoeng ih hmuen to nangmacae thung hoi na takhoe o ving ai karoek to, na misanawk pazawk o thai hanah, nihcae hmaa ah nang doe o thai mak ai.
'Rise, sanctify the people, and thou hast said, Sanctify yourselves for to-morrow; for thus said Jehovah, God of Israel, A devoted thing [is] in thy midst, O Israel, thou art not able to stand before thine enemies till your turning aside of the devoted thing out of your midst;
14 To pongah akhawn bangah acaeng kami maeto pacoeng maeto tacawt oh; acaeng maeto pacoeng maeto hmabang ah tacawt oh, Angraeng mah zaehaih sah acaeng to patuek tih; to pacoengah imthung takoh maeto pacoeng maeto hmabang ah tacawt oh, Angraeng mah zaehaih sah imthung takoh to patuek tih, to pacoengah imthung takoh thung ih kami maeto pacoeng maeto tacawt oh,
and ye have been brought near in the morning by your tribes, and it hath been, the tribe which Jehovah doth capture doth draw near by families, and the family which Jehovah doth capture doth draw near by households, and the household which Jehovah doth capture doth draw near by men;
15 tangoeng ih hmuen la kami to hmai hoiah qoeng oh; anih loe Angraeng lokkamhaih to aek moe, Israel kaminawk salakah azat thok hmuen a sak pongah, angmah hoi a tawnh ih hmuennawk boih hmai hoi nawnto qoeng oh, tiah a naa.
and it hath been, he who is captured with the devoted thing is burnt with fire, he and all that he hath, because he hath transgressed the covenant of Jehovah, and because he hath done folly in Israel.'
16 Joshua loe khawnbang khawnthaw ah angthawk moe, Israel acaeng boih maeto pacoeng maeto hmabang ah tacawtsak, to naah Anih mah zaehaih sah acaeng loe Judah ni, tiah patuek.
And Joshua riseth early in the morning, and bringeth Israel near by its tribes, and the tribe of Judah is captured;
17 Judah acaengnawk hmabang ah tacawt o; nihcae thungah Zarhi imthung takoh mah zaehaih sak, tiah patuek; Zarhi imthung takoh thung ih kami maeto pacoeng maeto hmabang ah tacawtsak naah, Zabdi mah zaehaih sak, tiah patuek.
and he bringeth near the family of Judah, and he captureth the family of the Zarhite; and he bringeth near the family of the Zarhite by men, and Zabdi is captured;
18 Joshua mah anih ih caanawk to maeto pacoeng maeto hmabang ah tacawtsak naah, Judah acaeng Zerah capa Zabdi, Zabdi capa Karmi, Karmi capa Akaan mah zaehaih sak, tiah patuek.
and he bringeth near his household by men, and Achan — son of Carmi, son of Zabdi, son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah — is captured.
19 To naah Joshua mah Akaan khaeah, Ka capa, Israel Angraeng Sithaw khaeah lensawkhaih paek loe, anih khaeah zaehaih taphong ah; na sak ih hmuen to vaihi na thui ah, angphat hmah, tiah a naa.
And Joshua saith unto Achan, 'My son, put, I pray thee, honour on Jehovah, God of Israel, and give to Him thanks, and declare, I pray thee, to me, what thou hast done — hide not from me.'
20 Akaan mah, Israel Angraeng Sithaw hmaa ah ka zae boeh; hae hmuen hae ka sak moeng boeh;
And Achan answereth Joshua, and saith, 'Truly I have sinned against Jehovah, God of Israel, and thus and thus I have done;
21 paro ih hmuennawk thungah Babylon kaminawk ih kahni, phoisa shekel cumvai hnetto hoi sui kae shekel quipangato ka hnuk naah ka khit moe, ka lak tangak boeh, khenah, to hmuennawk loe ka ohhaih kahni im long thungah ka hawk, phoisa loe athung koek ah oh, tiah a naa.
and I see among the spoil a goodly robe of Shinar, and two hundred shekels of silver, and one wedge of gold, whose weight [is] fifty shekels, and I desire them, and take them; and lo, they [are] hid in the earth, in the midst of my tent, and the silver under it.'
22 To pongah Joshua mah kaminawk to patoeh, kaminawk loe a ohhaih kahni im ah karangah cawnh o; khenah, a ohhaih im long thungah hawk ih phoisa to a hnuk o.
And Joshua sendeth messengers, and they run unto the tent, and lo, it is hidden in his tent, and the silver under it;
23 Anih imthung ih hmuennawk to lak o moe, Joshua hoi Israel kaminawk boih khaeah sin o pacoengah, Angraeng hmaa ah a suek o.
and they take them out of the midst of the tent, and bring them in unto Joshua, and unto all the sons of Israel, and pour them out before Jehovah.
24 To naah Joshua mah Israel kaminawk hoi nawnto Zerah capa Akaan, phoisa, kahni, sui kae, a capanawk hoi a canunawk, anih ih maitawnawk, laa hrangnawk, tuunawk, a ohhaih kahni im hoi a tawnh ih hmuennawk boih lak pae o moe, Akhor azawn ah a sinh o.
And Joshua taketh Achan son of Zerah, and the silver, and the robe, and the wedge of gold, and his sons, and his daughters, and his ox, and his ass, and his flock, and his tent, and all that he hath, and all Israel with him, and they cause them to go up the valley of Achor.
25 Joshua mah, Tipongah raihaih nang paek loe? Vaihni Angraeng mah raihaih na paek toeng tih, tiah a naa. To naah Israel kaminawk boih mah anih to thlung hoiah vah o, thlung hoiah vah o pacoengah, hmai hoiah qoeng o.
And Joshua saith, 'What! thou hast troubled us! — Jehovah doth trouble thee this day;' and all Israel cast stones at him, and they burn them with fire, and they stone them with stones,
26 Akaan nuiah thlung kapop ah pakhueng o; to thlung loe vaihni ni khoek to oh vop. To naah Angraeng palungphuihaih to dip. To pongah to ahmuen to vaihni ni khoek to Akhor ih azawn, tiah kawk o.
and they raise up over him a great heap of stones unto this day, and Jehovah turneth back from the heat of His anger, therefore hath [one] called the name of that place 'Valley of Achor' till this day.
