But the children of Israel committed a trespasse in the excommunicate thing: for Achan the sonne of Carmi, the sonne of Zabdi, the sonne of Zerah of the tribe of Iuda tooke of the excommunicate thing: wherfore the wrath of the Lord was kindled against the children of Israel.
2 Te vaengah Jerikho lamkah hlang rhoek te Bethel khothoeng Bethaven kaepkah aka om Ai la Joshua loh tueih tih, “Cet uh lamtah khohmuen ke hip uh lah,” a ti nah. Te dongah hlang rhoek te cet uh tih Ai te a hip uh.
And Ioshua sent men from Iericho to Ai, which is beside Bethauen, on ye East side of Bethel, and spake vnto them, saying, Goe vp, and view the countrey. And ye men went vp, and viewed Ai,
3 Joshua taengla a mael uh vaengah tah, “Pilnam pum he cet boel mai saeh. Hlang he tongpa thawng hnih thawng thum tluk cet uh saeh lamtah Ai te a tloek toem bitni. Amih hlangsii ham te pilnam pum taengah kohnue mai boeh,” a ti uh.
And returned to Ioshua, and saide vnto him, Let not al the people go vp, but let as it were two or three thousand men go vp, and smite Ai, and make not al the people to labour thither, for they are fewe.
4 Te dongah pilnam khui lamkah hlang thawng thum tluk tah cet uh van dae Ai hlang rhoek mikhmuh ah rhaelrham uh.
So there went vp thither of the people about three thousande men, and they fledde before the men of Ai.
5 Amih khui lamkah hlang sawmthum parhuk tluk te Ai hlang rhoek loh a ngawn. Amih te vongka hmai lamloh Shebarim duela a hloem uh tih singling ah a tloek vaengah pilnam tah a thinko paci tih tui bangla om uh.
And the men of Ai smote of them vpon a thirtie and sixe men: for they chased them from before the gate vnto Shebarim, and smote them in the going downe: wherfore the heartes of the people melted away like water.
6 Te dongah Joshua loh a himbai te a phen tih a BOEIPA kah thingkawng hmai ah kholaeh due a maelhmai neh diklai la bakop. Amah neh Israel a hamca rhoek long khaw a lu dongah laipi a poep uh.
Then Ioshua rent his clothes, and fell to the earth vpon his face before the Arke of the Lord, vntill the euentide, he, and the Elders of Israel, and put dust vpon their heads.
7 Te vaengah Joshua loh, “Aw ka Boeipa Yahovah, balae tih pilnam he Jordan na kat na kat sak phoeiah kaimih aka milh sak ham a Amori kut ah kaimih he nan voeih. Ka ueh uh mai vetih Jordan rhalvangan ah duem ka om uh mai mako?
And Ioshua said, Alas, O Lord God, wherefore hast thou brought this people ouer Iorden, to deliuer vs into the hande of the Amorites, and to destroye vs? would God we had bene content to dwell on the other side Iorden.
8 Aw Boeipa Israel loh a thunkha rhoek kah mikhmuh ah a rhawn a maelh te balae ka ti eh.
Oh Lord, what shall I say, when Israel turne their backes before their enemies?
9 Kanaan neh khohmuen kah khosa boeih loh ya koinih kaimih he m'vael uh vetih kaimih ming he diklai lamkah a hnawt uh ni ta. Te vaengah na boeilen ming te metlam na saii eh?,” a ti nah.
For the Canaanites, and all the inhabitants of the land shall heare of it, and shall compasse vs, and destroy our name out of the earth: and what wilt thou doe vnto thy mightie Name?
10 Te dongah Joshua te BOEIPA loh, “Namah mah thoo lah. Balae tih na hmai la na bakop?
And the Lord said vnto Ioshua, Get thee vp: wherefore lyest thou thus vpon thy face?
11 Israel he tholh tih ka paipi khaw a poe. Amih te ka uen lalah yaehtaboeih te a loh uh bal tih a huen uh bal. Te lalah khaw basa uh tih amamih kah hnopai khuiah a khueh uh bal.
Israel hath sinned, and they haue transgressed my couenant, which I commanded them: for they haue euen taken of the excommunicate thing, and haue also stollen, and dissembled also, and haue put it euen with their owne stuffe.
12 Israel ca rhoek he a thunkha rhoek mikhmuh ah pai thai mahpawh. Yaehtaboeih la a om uh dongah a thunkha kah mikhmuh ah khaw a rhawn ni hikhik a hooi uh eh. Na khui lamkah yaehtaboeih te na khoe uh pawt atah nangmih taengah om hamla ka coeng thai voel moenih.
Therefore ye children of Israel cannot stand before their enemies, but haue turned their backes before their enemies, because they be execrable: neither will I bee with you any more, except ye destroy the excommunicate from among you.
13 Thoo lamtah pilnam ke ciim laeh. Te vaengah, “Israel Pathen BOEIPA loh, 'Israel nang khui ah yaehtaboeih om tih na khui lamkah yaehtaboeih te na khoe uh hlanhil na thunkha rhoek kah mikhmuh ah pai ham tah na coeng uh moenih,’ a ti coeng dongah thangvuen kho ham namamih te ciim uh laeh,” ti nah.
Vp therefore, sanctifie the people, and say, Sanctifie your selues against to morowe: for thus saith the Lord God of Israel, There is an execrable thing among you, O Israel, therefore ye cannot stand against your enemies, vntill ye haue put the execrable thing from among you.
14 Te dongah mincang ah namamih koca rhoek loh ha capit uh laeh. BOEIPA loh a buem koca long tah amah huiko neh ha pawk uh saeh. BOEIPA loh a buem huiko long tah a imkhuikho neh ha pawk uh saeh. BOEIPA loh a buem imkhuikho long khaw a hlang rhoek neh ha pawk saeh.
In the morning therefore ye shall come according to your tribes, and the tribe which the Lord taketh, shall come according to the families: and the familie which the Lord shall take, shall come by the housholds: and the houshold which the Lord shall take, shall come man by man.
15 Yaehtaboeih aka buem tah ana om saeh, BOEIPA kah paipi a poe tih Israel khui ah boethae halang ni a. saii. Te dongah amah neh amah taengkah boeih te hmai neh hoeh saeh,” a ti nah.
And he that is taken with the excommunicate thing, shall be burnt with fire, hee, and all that he hath, because he hath transgressed the couenant of the Lord, and because he hath wrought folly in Israel.
16 Mincang a thoh vaengah Joshua taengla Israel koca rhoek loh ha capit uh tih Judah koca te a tuuk.
So Ioshua rose vp earely in the morning and brought Israel by their tribes: and the tribe of Iudah was taken.
17 Judah kah a hui a ko ha pawk vaengah Zarkhii kah a huiko te a tuuk. Zarkhii huiko khuikah hlang la a pawk dongah Zabdi te a tuuk.
And he brought the families of Iudah, and tooke the familie of the Zarhites, and he brought the familie of the Zarhites, man by man, and Zabdi was taken.
18 Anih imkhui kah hlang la a pawk dongah Judah koca Zerah ko Zabdi kah a ca Karmee capa Akhan te a tuuk.
And he brought his houshold, man by man, and Achan ye sonne of Carmi, the sonne of Zabdi, the sonne of Zerah of the tribe of Iudah was take.
19 Te dongah Akhan te Joshua loh, “Ka ca, Israel Pathen BOEIPA taengah thangpomnah pae laeh lamtah uemonah khaw amah taengah pae laeh. Na saii te kai taengah phoe lamtah phah voel boeh,” a ti nah.
Then Ioshua said vnto Achan, My sonne, I beseech thee, giue glory to the Lord God of Israel, and make confession vnto him, and shewe me now what thou hast done: hide it not from me.
20 Te vaengah Akhan loh Joshua te a doo tih, “Ue kai he Israel Pathen BOEIPA taengah ka tholh coeng tih he tlam he khaw ka saii coeng.
And Achan answered Ioshua, and saide, In deede, I haue sinned against the Lord God of Israel, and thus, and thus haue I done.
21 Kutbuem te ka sawt tih ka hmuh vaengah Shinar himbai then yungat, cak a khiing shekel yahnih, sui a khiing shekel sawmnga pakhat te ka nai tih ka loh. Tedae ka dap khui kah diklai khui ah ka up tih a cak te laedil ah om ke,” a ti nah.
I sawe among the spoyle a goodly Babylonish garment, and two hundreth shekels of siluer, and a wedge of golde of fiftie shekels weight, and I coueted them, and tooke them: and behold, they lye hid in the earth in the mids of my tent, and the siluer vnder it.
22 Te dongah Joshua loh puencawn rhoek te a tueih tih dap la a yong uh vaengah tah dap khuiah a thuh tih a laedil ah cak ana om tangloeng.
Then Ioshua sent messengers, which ran vnto the tent, and beholde, it was hid in his tent, and the siluer vnder it.
23 Te dongah amih te dap khui lamkah a loh uh tih Joshua neh Israel ca rhoek taengla boeih a khuen uh. Te phoeiah BOEIPA hmai ah a rha uh.
Therefore they tooke them out of the tent, and brought them vnto Ioshua, and vnto all the children of Israel, and layd them before the Lord.
24 Te phoeiah Zerah capa Akhan neh cak khaw, himbai khaw sui tling khaw, a capa neh a canu khaw, a vaito khaw, a laak khaw, a boiva khaw, a dap neh anih taengkah aka om boeih te Joshua loh a loh pah tih anih te Israel pum loh Akor kol la a khuen uh.
Then Ioshua tooke Achan the sonne of Zerah, and the siluer, and the garment and the wedge of golde and his sonnes, and his daughters, and his oxen, and his asses, and his sheepe, and his tent, and all that hee had: and all Israel with him brought them vnto the valley of Achor.
25 Te phoeiah Joshua loh, “Balae tih kaimih nan lawn, tihnin ah BOEIPA loh nang n'lawn saeh,” a ti nah. Anih te Israel pum loh lungto neh a dae uh tih hmai neh a hoeh uh. Te phoeiah ah khaw lungto neh a dae thil uh bal.
And Ioshua said, In as much as thou hast troubled vs, the Lord shall trouble thee this day: and all Israel threwe stones at him, and burned them with fire, and stoned them with stones.
26 Te dongah anih sokah a kuk lungkuk te tihnin duela muep om pueng. Tedae BOEIPA thintoek thinsa a sah coeng dongah tekah a hmuen ming khaw tihnin due Akor kol la a khue.
And they cast vpon him a great heape of stones vnto this day: and so the Lord turned from his fierce wrath: therefore hee called the name of that place, The valley of Achor, vnto this day.
