Olrhaepnah 31
1 Moses te cet tih Israel pum taengah hekah olka he a thui.
Moses went and spoke these words to all Israel.
2 Te vaengah amih te, “Tihnin ah kai he kum ya pakul ka lo ca coeng tih ka voei ka bal ham ka coeng voel pawh. Te dongah BOEIPA loh kai taengah, 'He Jordan he kat voel boeh,’ a ti.
He said to them, “I am now one hundred twenty years old; I can no more go out and come in; Yahweh has said to me, 'You will not go over this Jordan.'
3 Na hmai kah aka kat BOEIPA na Pathen amah loh namtom rhoek he na mikhmuh ah a mitmoeng sak vetih amih te na pang ni. BOEIPA loh a thui vanbangla Joshua tah nang hmai ah kat ni.
Yahweh your God, he will go over before you; he will destroy these nations from before you, and you will dispossess them. Joshua, he will go over before you, as Yahweh has spoken.
4 Amori manghai Sihon neh Oga a saii tih a khohmuen neh rhenten a phae bangla BOEIPA loh a saii ni.
Yahweh will do to them as he did to Sihon and to Og, the kings of the Amorites, and to their land, which he destroyed.
5 Amih te BOEIPA loh na mikhmuh la han thak vaengah nang kang uen olpaek bangla amih taengah boeih na saii ni.
Yahweh will give you victory over them when you meet them in battle, and you will do to them all that I commanded you.
6 Thaahuel uh lamtah namning sakuh. Amih maelhmai te rhih uh boel lamtah na sarhing uh boeh. Nang taengkah aka cet BOEIPA na Pathen loh nang ng'rhael pawt vetih nang ng'hnoo mahpawh,” a ti nah.
Be strong and of good courage, fear not, and do not be afraid of them; for Yahweh your God, he it is who goes with you; he will not fail you nor forsake you.”
7 Te phoeiah Moses loh Joshua a khue tih Israel pum kah mikhmuh ah, “Thaahuel lamtah namning sak. A napa taengah paek hamla BOEIPA loh a toemngam tangtae khohmuen la pilnam neh na puei uh vetih amih te na pang pawn ni.
Moses called to Joshua and said to him in the sight of all Israel, “Be strong and of good courage, for you will go with this people into the land that Yahweh has sworn to their ancestors to give them; you will cause them to inherit it.
8 Nang mikhmuh ah aka pongpa BOEIPA amah long he nang taengah om vetih nang ng'rhael mahpawh, nang ng'hnoo mahpawh. Rhih boel lamtah rhihyawp boeh,” a ti nah.
Yahweh, he it is who goes before you; he will be with you; he will not fail you nor abandon you; do not be afraid, do not be discouraged.”
9 Te phoeiah olkhueng he Moses loh a daek tih, BOEIPA kah paipi thingkawng aka kawt, Levi koca khosoih rhoek neh Israel patong rhoek boeih taengah a paek.
Moses wrote this law and gave it out to the priests, the sons of Levi, who carried the ark of the covenant of Yahweh; he also gave copies of it to all the elders of Israel.
10 Hekah he kum rhih thok tih pohlip khotue laiba hlahnah kum kah khoning vaengah a thui tih amih te Moses loh a uen.
Moses commanded them and said, “At the end of every seven years, at the time fixed for the cancellation of debts, during the Festival of Shelters,
11 Amah hmuen tuek kah BOEIPA na Pathen mikhmuh ah phoe hamla Israel pum loh ha pawk vaengah Israel pum kah a hna kaep ah olkhueng he doek pah.
when all Israel has come to appear before Yahweh your God in the place that he will choose for his sanctuary, you will read this law before all Israel in their hearing.
12 Huta tongpa camoe, na vongka kah yinlai neh pilnam loh tingtun saeh lamtah hnatun uh saeh. Te daengah ni a. cang uh vetih BOEIPA na Pathen rhih ham neh olkhueng ol boeih he vai hamla a ngaithuen uh eh.
Assemble the people, the men, the women, and the little ones, and your foreigner who is within your city gates, so that they may hear and learn, and so that they may honor Yahweh your God and keep all the words of this law.
13 Te vaengah pang hamla Jordan na kat thil khohmuen kah na hingnah tue khuiah ah aka ming noek pawh a ca rhoek loh BOEIPA na Pathen rhih ham hnatun uh saeh lamtah cang uh saeh.
Do this so that their children, who have not known, may hear and learn to honor Yahweh your God, as long as you live in the land that you are going over the Jordan to possess.”
14 Te vaengah BOEIPA loh Moses te, “Duek hamla na khohnin loh yoei coeng he. Joshua te khue lamtah tingtunnah dap ah pai sak lamtah anih te ka uen eh,” a ti nah. Te dongah Moses neh Joshua te cet rhoi tih tingtunnah dap ah pai rhoi.
Yahweh said to Moses, “Look, the day is coming when you must die; call Joshua and present yourselves in the tent of meeting, so that I may give him a command.” Moses and Joshua went and presented themselves in the tent of meeting.
15 Te vaengah BOEIPA tah dap ah cingmai tung la tueng tih cingmai tung khaw dap thohkah ah pai.
Yahweh appeared in the tent in a pillar of cloud; the pillar of cloud stood over the door of the tent.
16 Te vaengah Moses te BOEIPA loh, “Na pa rhoek taengah na yalh coeng atah pilnam he thoo vetih a kun thil khohmuen kah kholong pathen taengah cukhalh pawn ni he. Kai n'hnoo vetih anih taengkah ka saii ka paipi he a phae uh ni.
Yahweh said to Moses, “Look, you will sleep with your fathers; this people will rise up and act like a prostitute going after the strange gods that are among them in the land where they are going. They will forsake me and break my covenant that I have made with them.
17 Tekah khohnin ah tah ka thintoek loh anih taengah sai vetih amih te ka hnoo ni. Te vaengah amih taeng lamloh ka maelhmai ka thuh vetih maeham la poeh ni. Yoethae cungkuem neh citcai loh anih a hmuh ni. Te khohnin ah, “Ka khui ah ka Pathen loh a om pawt dongah pawt nim? He bang yoethae loh kai m'hmuh,” a ti ni.
Then, on that day, my anger will be kindled against them and I will abandon them. I will hide my face from them and they will be devoured. Many disasters and troubles will find them so that they will say on that day, 'Have these disasters not come upon us because our God is not in our midst?'
18 Boethae cungkuem te a saii tih pathen tloe rhoek taengah a hooi uh khohnin van vaengah kai long khaw ka maelhmai ka thuh rhoe ka thuh tak van ni.
I will surely hide my face from them on that day because of all the evil that they will have done, because they has turned to other gods.
19 Te dongah hekah laa he namah loh daek laeh. Israel ca rhoek te tuuk lamtah a ka dongah hoei pah. Te daengah ni hekah laa loh Israel ca rhoek taengah kai kah laipai la a om eh.
Now therefore write this song for yourselves and teach it to the people of Israel. Put it in their mouths, so that this song may be a witness for me against the people of Israel.
20 A napa rhoek taengah ka toemngam tangtae tih, khoitui neh suktui aka long khohmuen la ka khuen ni. Te vaengah kodam la ca khangrhang cakhaw pathen tloe taengla hooi uh vetih amih taengah ni tho a thueng uh eh. Kai yah m'bai uh vetih ka paipi a phae uh mai hoeh veh.
For when I will have brought them into the land that I swore to give to their ancestors, a land flowing with milk and honey, and when they have eaten and become satisfied and fat, then they will turn to other gods and they will serve them and they will despise me and they will break my covenant.
21 Tedae ana om saeh, anih te yoethae neh citcai loh muep a muk van vaengah hekah laa loh a mikhmuh ah laipai la a doo bitni. A tiingan ka lamkah te khaw hnilh boel saeh. Ka toemngam bangla anih te khohmuen la ka pha puei hlan ah pataeng tihnin kah a saii neh a benbonah te ka ming,” a ti nah.
When many evils and troubles come upon this people, this song will testify before them as a witness (for it will not be forgotten from the mouths of their descendants). For I know the plans that they are forming today, even before I have brought them into the land that I promised them.”
22 Te dongah laa he Moses loh amah khohnin vaengah a daek tih Israel ca rhoek te a cang puei.
So Moses wrote this song the same day and taught it to the people of Israel.
23 Te phoeiah Nun capa Joshua te a uen tih, “Amih ham ka toemngam tangtae khohmuen la Israel ca rhoek te na khuen ham coeng dongah thahuel lamtah namning sak. Nang taengah kai ka om bitni,” a ti nah.
Yahweh gave Joshua son of Nun a command and said, “Be strong and of good courage; for you will bring the people of Israel into the land that I swore to them, and I will be with you.”
24 Olkhueng ol he a soep hil cabu dongah daek ham te Moses loh a coeng tih om coeng.
It happened that when Moses had finished writing the words of this law in a book,
25 Te phoeiah BOEIPA kah paipi thingkawng aka kawt Levi rhoek te Moses loh a uen tih,
that he commanded the Levites who carried the ark of the covenant of Yahweh, and he said,
26 “Olkhueng cabu he lo laeh. BOEIPA na Pathen paipi thingkawng kaep ah khueh lamtah nang taengah laipai la om saeh.
“Take this book of the law and put it by the side of the ark of the covenant of Yahweh your God, so that it may be there as a witness against you.
27 Na boekoek neh na rhawn a mangkhak khaw kai loh ka ming. Nangmih taengkah ka hing tue vaengah pataeng BOEIPA aka koek la na om uh atah ka duek phoei aisat oeih.
For I know your rebellion and your stiff neck; look, while I am still alive with you even today, you have been rebellious against Yahweh; how much more after my death?
28 Nangmih koca kah patong rhoek neh na rhoiboei boeih loh kai taengla ha tingtun uh laeh. Vaan neh diklai he amih taengah ka laipai puei saeh lamtah a hna ah olka he ka thui lah eh.
Assemble to me all the elders of your tribes, and your officers, so that I may speak these words in their ears and call heaven and earth to witness against them.
29 Ka dueknah hnukah khaw ka ming coeng. A po la na po vetih nangmih taengah kang uen bangla longpuei lamloh na nong uh ni. Hmailong khohnin ah yoethaenah loh nangmih m'mah ni. Na kut dongkah khoboe neh amah veet hamla BOEIPA mikhmuh ah boethae ni na saii uh eh.
For I know that after my death you will utterly corrupt yourselves and turn aside out of the path that I have commanded you; disaster will come on you in the following days. This will happen because you will do what is evil in the sight of Yahweh, so as to provoke him to anger through the work of your hands.”
30 Te dongah hekah laa lung he a boeih due Israel hlangping boeih kah a hna ah Moses loh a thui pah.
Moses recited in the ears of all the assembly of Israel the words of this song until they were finished.
