NOW the children of Reuben and the children of Gad had a very great multitude of cattle: and when they saw the land of Jazer, and the land of Gilead, that, behold, the place was a place for cattle;

2 Te dongah Gad koca rhoek neh Reuben koca rhoek te cet uh tih Moses taeng neh khosoih Eleazar taengah khaw, rhaengpuei khoboei rhoek taengah khaw a thui uh.

The children of Gad and the children of Reuben came and spake unto Moses, and to Eleazar the priest, and unto the princes of the congregation, saying,

3 Te vaengah Ataroth neh Dibon, Jazer neh Nimrah, Heshbon neh Elealeh, Sibam, Nebo, Beon,

Ataroth, and Dibon, and Jazer, and Nimrah, and Heshbon, and Elealeh, and Shebam, and Nebo, and Beon,

4 Isreal rhaengpuei kah mikhmuh ah BOEIPA loh a ngawn khohmuen te boiva kah khohmuen tih na sal rhoek taengah khaw boiva om ta,” a ti uh.

Even the country which the Lord smote before the congregation of Israel, is a land for cattle, and thy servants have cattle:

5 Te phoeiah, “Na mik ah mikdaithen ka hmuh atah he khohmuen he na sal rhoek taengah khohut la m'paek vetih Jordan te kaimih nam paan sak pawt mako,” a ti uh.

Wherefore, said they, if we have found grace in thy sight, let this land be given unto thy servants for a possession, and bring us not over Jordan.

6 Tedae Moses loh Gad koca rhoek taeng neh Reuben koca rhoek taengah, “Nangmih hela na ngol uh vaengah na manuca rhoek tah caemtloek la cet uh saeh a?

And Moses said unto the children of Gad and to the children of Reuben, Shall your brethren go to war, and shall ye sit here?

7 BOEIPA loh amih taengah a paek khohmuen la kat ham te balae tih Israel ca rhoek kah lungbuei he a khaban la na khaban uh.

And wherefore discourage ye the heart of the children of Israel from going over into the land which the Lord hath given them?

8 Khohmuen sawt ham Kadeshbarnea lamloh amih ka tueih vaengah na pa rhoek loh he ni a. saii uh.

Thus did your fathers, when I sent them from Kadesh-barnea to see the land.

9 Eshkol soklong la cet uh tih khohmuen khaw a hmuh uh dae BOEIPA loh amih taengah a paek khohmuen la kun pawt ham Israel ca rhoek kah lungbuei te a khaban uh.

For when they went up unto the valley of Eshcol, and saw the land, they discouraged the heart of the children of Israel, that they should not go into the land which the Lord had given them.

10 Amah khohnin ah BOEIPA kah thintoek sai tih a toemngam.

And the Lord’s anger was kindled the same time, and he sware, saying,

11 Egypt lamkah aka lo hlang rhoek khuiah kum kul neh a so hang ca rhoek tah khohmuen te hmu uh mahpawh. Te te Abraham, Isaak taeng neh Jakob taengah ka toemngam dae kai hnukah a tlun uh moenih.

Surely none of the men that came up out of Egypt, from twenty years old and upward, shall see the land which I sware unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob; because they have not wholly followed me:

12 Kenizzi Jephunneh capa Kaleb neh Nun capa Joshua tah BOEIPA hnukah tlun rhoi.

Save Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenezite, and Joshua the son of Nun: for they have wholly followed the Lord.

13 Te vaengah BOEIPA kah thintoek te Israel taengah sai tih BOEIPA mik ah boethae aka saii kah cadil boeih a cing hil amih te khosoek ah kum sawmli a poengdoe sak.

And the Lord’s anger was kindled against Israel, and he made them wander in the wilderness forty years, until all the generation, that had done evil in the sight of the Lord, was consumed.

14 Israel taengah BOEIPA kah thintoek thinsa te koep khoengvoep ham ni na pa rhoek yueng hlangtholh hlang kah tahoengnah dongah na pai uh he.

And, behold, ye are risen up in your fathers’ stead, an increase of sinful men, to augment yet the fierce anger of the Lord toward Israel.

15 A hnuk lamloh na phael uh dongah khosoek ah amih tloeng ham koep a koei vetih he pilnam boeih he na mit uh bitni,” a ti nah.

For if ye turn away from after him, he will yet again leave them in the wilderness; and ye shall destroy all this people.

16 Te phoeiah a taengla mop uh tih, “Kaimih kah boiva ham boiva kah tanglung neh ka ca rhoek ham khopuei pahoi ka thoh uh mako.

And they came near unto him, and said, We will build sheepfolds here for our cattle, and cities for our little ones:

17 Tedae amih te a hmuen la ka pawk uh hil tah kaimih he Israel ca mikhmuh ah tawn uh ham ka pumcum uh bitni. Te vaengah khohmuen kah khosa rhoek mikhmuh lamkah hmuencak khopuei rhoek ah mamih kah camoe rhoek ana om saeh.

But we ourselves will go ready armed before the children of Israel, until we have brought them unto their place: and our little ones shall dwell in the fenced cities because of the inhabitants of the land.

18 Israel ca rhoek khuikah hlang loh a rho a pang hlanah ka im la ka mael uh mahpawh.

We will not return unto our houses, until the children of Israel have inherited every man his inheritance.

19 Jordan kah rhalvangan neh a voel kah amih neh m'phaeng uh boel saeh. Jordan khocuk ngan ah kaimih taengah kamamih kah rho om coeng,” a ti uh.

For we will not inherit with them on yonder side Jordan, or forward; because our inheritance is fallen to us on this side Jordan eastward.

20 Te dongah Moses loh amih te, “He ol he na ngai uh mak atah, caemtloek ham BOEIPA mikhmuh ah na pumcum uh mak atah,

And Moses said unto them, If ye will do this thing, if ye will go armed before the Lord to war,

21 Nangmih aka pumcum boeih te tah BOEIPA mikhmuh ah Jordan te a poeng vetih a thunkha rhoek te a mikhmuh lamloh a haek ni.

And will go all of you armed over Jordan before the Lord, until he hath driven out his enemies from before him,

22 BOEIPA mikhmuh ah khohmuen a khoem uh coeng. Te dongah mael uh lamtah BOEIPA taeng neh Israel taengah ommongsitoe la na om uh bitni. Khohmuen he BOEIPA mikhmuh ah nangmih kah khohut la om bitni.

And the land be subdued before the Lord: then afterward ye shall return, and be guiltless before the Lord, and before Israel; and this land shall be your possession before the Lord.

23 Te te na saii uh pawt atah BOEIPA taengah na tholh coeng ne. Te vaengah namamih kah tholhnah loh nangmih m'hmuh bitni tila ming uh.

But if ye will not do so, behold, ye have sinned against the Lord: and be sure your sin will find you out.

24 Nangmih ham neh na camoe ham khopuei khaw, na tu ham tanglung khaw thoh uh. Tedae nangmih ka lamloh aka thoeng te rhoi uh,” a ti nah.

Build you cities for your little ones, and folds for your sheep; and do that which hath proceeded out of your mouth.

25 Te phoeiah Gad koca rhoek neh Reuben koca rhoek loh Moses taengah, “Na sal rhoek long he ka boei kah a uen bangla a saii uh bitni.

And the children of Gad and the children of Reuben spake unto Moses, saying, Thy servants will do as my lord commandeth.

26 Ka yuu rhoek neh ka ca rhoek, ka boiva neh ka rhamsa boeih tah Gilead khopuei rhoek ah pahoi om uh bitni.

Our little ones, our wives, our flocks, and all our cattle, shall be there in the cities of Gilead:

27 Ka boei kah na thui bangla, BOEIPA mikhmuh ah caempuei la aka pumcum na sal rhoek tah caemtloek la boeih kat bitni ni,” a ti uh.

But thy servants will pass over, every man armed for war, before the Lord to battle, as my lord saith.

28 Amih kongah Moses loh khosoih Eleazar, Nun capa Joshua neh Israel ca rhoek kah koca, a napa boeilu rhoek te a uen.

So concerning them Moses commanded Eleazar the priest, and Joshua the son of Nun, and the chief fathers of the tribes of the children of Israel:

29 Te vaengah Moses loh amih te, “BOEIPA mikhmuh ah caemtloek la aka pumcum Gad koca rhoek neh Reuben ca boeih tah nangmih taengah Jordan te kat uh coeng. Nangmih mikhmuh ah khohmuen te a khoem uh dongah Gilead khohmuen te amih taengah khohut la pae.

And Moses said unto them, If the children of Gad and the children of Reuben will pass with you over Jordan, every man armed to battle, before the Lord, and the land shall be subdued before you; then ye shall give them the land of Gilead for a possession:

30 Nangmih taengah aka pumcum uh khaw a kat uh pawt atah Kanaan khohmuen ah tah nangmih khui kah te bawn uh saeh,” a ti nah.

But if they will not pass over with you armed, they shall have possessions among you in the land of Canaan.

31 Gad koca rhoek neh Reuben koca rhoek loh a doo uh tih, “BOEIPA loh na sal rhoek taengah a thui bangla ka saii uh tangloeng bitni.

And the children of Gad and the children of Reuben answered, saying, As the Lord hath said unto thy servants, so will we do.

32 Kaimih BOEIPA mikhmuh ah aka pumcum rhoek tah Kanaan khohmuen la ka kat uh ni. Tedae Jordan rhalvang he tah kaimih kah rho neh kaimih ham khohut la om saeh,” a ti uh.

We will pass over armed before the Lord into the land of Canaan, that the possession of our inheritance on this side Jordan may be ours.

And Moses gave unto them, even to the children of Gad, and to the children of Reuben, and unto half the tribe of Manasseh the son of Joseph, the kingdom of Sihon king of the Amorites, and the kingdom of Og king of Bashan, the land, with the cities thereof in the coasts, even the cities of the country round about.
