Ye shall not respect persons in judgment: ye shall hear the small as well as the great; ye shall not be afraid of the face of man, for the judgment is God's; and the matter that is too hard for you shall ye bring to me, that I may hear it.
18 Te vaeng tue kah nangmih kang uen olka boeih te saiiuh.
And I commanded you at that time all the things that ye should do.

And we departed from Horeb and went through all that great and terrible wilderness, which ye saw, on the way to the mountain of the Amorites, as Jehovah our God had commanded us; and we came to Kadesh-barnea.

And ye came near to me all of you, and said, We will send men before us, who shall examine the land for us, and bring us word again of the way by which we must go up, and of the cities to which we shall come.

And they took of the fruit of the land in their hand, and brought it down unto us, and brought us answer, and said, The land is good that Jehovah our God hath given us.

But ye would not go up, and rebelled against the word of Jehovah your God;
27 Namamih kah dap khuiah pataengna cailakuh tih, 'Mamih kah BOEIPA kah hmuhuetnah dongah mamih mitmoeng sak hamni Egypt kho lamloh n'khuentih Amori kut dongla n'thak.
and ye murmured in your tents, and said, Because Jehovah hated us, he hath brought us forth out of the land of Egypt, to deliver us into the hand of the Amorites, to destroy us.
28 Kaimih ta melam kacaeh uh eh? Mah manucaaka cetrhoek loh, 'Pilnamloh lenuh tih mamih lakah sang uh, khopueirhoekkhaw ka tihavong cakloh vaan duelaa pha, teahte Anakim carhoek khaw ka hmuh,’ a ti uh tih mamih kah lungbuei thinko hehoenga khahuh.
Whither shall we go up? Our brethren have made our hearts melt, saying, [They are] a people greater and taller than we; the cities are great and walled up to heaven; and moreover we have seen the sons of the Anakim there.
29 Nangmih te, “Amih taengahna sarhing sak boeh, rhihuh boeh,’ ka ti.
And I said unto you, Be not afraid, neither fear them;

But In this thing ye did not believe Jehovah your God,

who went in the way before you, to search you out a place for your encamping, in fire by night, to shew you by what way ye should go, and in the cloud by day.

And Jehovah heard the voice of your words, and was wroth, and swore, saying,
35 “Na parhoek taengah paek ham ka caeng khohmuen then te he kah boethae thawnpuei hlang rhoek khuikah hlangloh hmu mahpawh.
None among these men, this evil generation, shall in any wise see that good land, which I swore to give unto your fathers!

Except Caleb the son of Jephunneh, he shall see it, and to him will I give the land that he hath trodden upon, and to his children, because he hath wholly followed Jehovah.
37 Nangmih kongah kai taengah khaw BOEIPAloh a thintoek tih, 'Nang khawna kun mahpawh.
Also Jehovah was angry with me on your account, saying, Thou also shalt not go in thither.

Joshua the son of Nun, who standeth before thee, he shall go in thither: strengthen him, for he shall cause Israel to inherit it.

And your little ones, of whom ye said, They shall be a prey, and your children, who this day know neither good nor evil, they shall go in thither, and unto them will I give it, and they shall possess it.

But ye, turn, and take your journey into the wilderness by the way of the Red sea.

— And ye answered and said unto me, We have sinned against Jehovah, we will go up and fight, according to all that Jehovah our God hath commanded us. And ye girded on every man his weapons of war, and ye would go presumptuously up the hill.
42 Tedae BOEIPAloh kai taengah, “Amih te thuipah. Cetuh boeh, vathohuh boeh, nangmih lakli ah ka om pawt dongah na thunkharhoek kah mikhmuh ahna yawkuh mahpawt nim,” a ti.
And Jehovah said to me, Say unto them, Go not up, neither fight; for I am not among you; lest ye be smitten before your enemies.
