Olrhaepnah 2
1 Te phoeiah, BOEIPA loh kai taengah a thui vanbangla n'hooi uh tih carhaek li long kah khosoek la n'caeh uh phoeiah Seir tlang n'hil uh khaw khohnin loh sen coeng.
Then we turned around and headed back into the desert on the road that leads to the Red Sea, as the Lord had told me, and we wandered around Mount Seir for a long time.
2 Te dongah BOEIPA loh kai m'voek tih,
This is when the Lord told me,
3 'Hekah tlang khaw puet na hil uh coeng. Te dongah tlangpuei ben la mael uh laeh.
“You have been wandering around this mountain long enough. Go back north,
4 Na pilnam te khaw uen lamtah namamih loh thui pah. Seir ah aka om na manuca Esau koca rhoek kah khorhi aka paan nangmih te n'rhih uh ni. Te dongah boeih ngaithuen uh.
and give these orders to the people: ‘You are going to pass through the territory of your relatives, the descendants of Esau, who live in Seir. They will be frightened of you, so you need to be very careful.
5 Amih kah khohmuen te nangmih taengah kam paek pawt oeh dongah amih te huek boeh. Na kho khopha kah a laeh pataeng khaw Seir tlang te tah Esau kah rho lamni ka paek coeng.
Don't fight them, for I'm not going to give you any of their land, not even the size of a footprint, because I have given Mount Seir to Esau and it belongs to him.
6 Buh khaw amih taengah tah tangka neh lai uh lamtah ca uh. Tui pataeng khaw amih taengah tah tangka neh lai uh lamtah o uh.
Pay them with money for the food you eat and the water you drink.’
7 Hekah khosoek khoham ah na van uh te BOEIPA na Pathen loh a ming tih na kut dongkah bitat boeih dongah BOEIPA na Pathen loh na yoe a then sak. Tahae due kum sawmli khuiah nangmih te hno loh m'vaitah moenih,’ a ti.
Remember that the Lord your God has blessed you in everything you've done. He has looked after you during your journey through this large desert. The Lord your God has been with you for these forty years, and you haven't lacked anything.”
8 Te dongah Seir ah kho aka sa mah manuca Esau koca rhoek te m'poeng uh tih kolken longpuei Elath neh Eziongeber lamkah n'hooi uh tih Moab khosoek longpuei la n'khum uh.
So we passed by our relatives, the descendants of Esau, who live in Seir. We didn't take the Arabah road from Elath and Ezion-geber. Instead we used the road that goes through the desert of Moab.
9 Tedae BOEIPA loh kai taengah, 'Ar he tah Lot koca rhoek taengah rho la ka paek coeng dongah anih kah khohmuen rho te nangmih kam pae mahpawh. Te dongah Moab te dum boel lamtah amih te caem nen khaw huek boeh.
Then the Lord told me, “Don't cause the Moabites any trouble or fight them, for I'm not going to give you any of their land, because I have given Ar to the descendants of Lot and it belongs to them.”
10 Hlamat lamkah anih khuiah aka om Emim pilnam khaw Anakim bangla tlung khaw tlung, ping khaw ping tih bahoeng sang.
(A strong and numerous people called the Emim once lived there. They were as tall as the Anakim,
11 Rapha te khaw Anakim bangla a poek uh dongah amih te Moab loh Emim la a khue uh.
and just like the Anakim, they were also considered as Rephaim, but the Moabites called them Emim.
12 Seir ah khaw a hmai ah Khori rhoek kho a sak uh coeng. Tedae Esau ca rhoek loh amih te a huul uh. Amih te a mikhmuh lamloh mitmoeng uh. A rho khohmuen ah Israel saii bangla amih yueng la kho a sak uh. Te te BOEIPA loh amih taengah a paek.
Previously the Horites lived in Seir, but the descendants of Esau took over their land. They killed the Horites and settled there, just like Israel did when they occupied the land that the Lord had given them.)
13 Tahae ah thoo uh lamtah Zered soklong te kan uh,’ a ti dongah Zered soklong te n'kan uh.
Then the Lord told us, “Go and cross over Zered Brook.” So we crossed over Zered Brook.
14 Kadeshbarnea lamkah n'cet uh tih Zered soklong m'poeng uh duela a tue loh sawmthum neh kum rhet di coeng. BOEIPA loh a caeng vanbangla rhaehhmuen lamkah thawnpuei caemtloek hlang rhoek khaw boeih khum uh coeng.
The time it took for us to travel from Kadesh-barnea to when we crossed over the Brook of Zered was thirty-eight years. By this time the entire generation of warriors had died and were no longer part of the camp, as the Lord had sworn to them would happen.
15 Amih a mitmoeng uh duela rhaehhmuen khui lamkah amih aka khawkkhek la BOEIPA kut khaw amih taengah om.
In fact the Lord worked against them to remove them from the camp, until they were all dead.
16 Pilnam khui lamkah caemtloek hlang boeih khaw duek tih aka boeih bangla om coeng.
Once the people's warriors had died,
17 Te dongah BOEIPA loh kai m'voek tih,
the Lord told me,
18 'Moab khorhi kah Ar te tihnin ah vawl poeng laeh.
“Today you will cross out of Moab at the border near Ar.
19 Ammon koca rhoek taengla na pawk vaengah amih te dum boeh. Caemtloek nen khaw amih te huek boeh. Ammon koca rhoek kah khohmuen te nang taengah rho la kam paek moenih Lot koca rhoek ham ni rho la ka paek.
However, when you get enter Ammonite territory, don't cause them any trouble or fight them for I'm not going to give you any Ammonite land, because I have given it to the descendants of Lot and it belongs to them.”
20 Te te a khui ah lamhma la Rapha rhoek a om uh van coeng dongah Rapha khohmuen la a poek. Tedae Ammoni rhoek longtah amih te Zamzomi la a khue uh.
(This land was previously considered as the country of the Rephaim who used to live there. However, the Ammonites called them Zamzummites.
21 Amih te Anakim bangla pilnam loh len khaw len, yet khaw yet tih sang khaw sang dae amamih mikhmuh ah BOEIPA loh amih te a mitmoeng sak tih a haek dongah amih yueng la Ammon rhoek loh kho a sakuh.
They were a strong and numerous people, as tall as the Anakim. But the Lord destroyed them when the Ammonites invaded and drove them out and settled there,
22 Seir kah aka om te Esau koca rhoek ham a saii pah tih Khori rhoek a mit sak bangla amih khaw a mikhmuh ah a haek uh dongah tihnin due amih yueng la Esau koca rhoek loh kho a sakuh.
just as he'd done for the descendants of Esau who lived in Seir when he destroyed the Horites. They drove them out and settled where they used to live, and are still there to this day.
23 Gaza vongup khui duela aka om Avvii khaw Kaptor lamkah aka lo Kapthorim rhoek loh a mit sak tih amih yueng la tloep om bal.
The Avvim, living in villages as far away as Gaza, were destroyed by the Philistines, who came from Crete, and settled where they used to live.)
24 Thoo uh laeh. Cet uh lamtah Arnon soklong ke kat uh. Na kut dongah kam paek Amori kah Heshbon manghai Sihon te so lamtah a khohmuen te pahoi huul. Te phoeiah anih te caemtloek neh huek.
Then the Lord told us, “Get up, go and cross the Arnon Valley. Look, I have handed over to you Sihon the Amorite, king of Heshbon, as well as his land. Go and start taking it over, and fight him in battle.
25 Tihnin ah he ka tong vetih nang ham birhihnah ka khueh ni. Vaan hmui boeih kah pilnam rhoek loh a mikhmuh ah nang kah hinyahnah olthang a yaak uh vaengah tlai uh vetih na mikhmuh ah kilkul uh ni.
From this day on, I'm going to make all nations on earth dread you—they will be terrified of you. Because of the news they hear about you they will tremble in terror when you appear.”
26 Te phoeiah Kedemoth khosoek lamkah puencawn rhoek te Heshbon manghai Sihon taengla rhoepnah olka neh ka tueih tih,
Moses told the Israelites, “From the Kedemoth Desert I sent messengers with an offer of peace to Sihon, king of Heshbon, telling him,
27 'Na khohmuen long ah ka lan mai eh. Longpuei pakhat te ka vai vetih banvoei bantang la ka phael mahpawh.
‘Let us pass through your land. We'll stay on the main road and won't turn off either to the right or to the left.
28 Buh khaw kai taengah tangka neh yoi lamtah ka ca eh. Tui khaw kai taengah tangka la han yoi lamtah ka o eh. Ka kho nen mah dawk ka lan mai eh.
Sell us food to eat and water to drink for money. Just let us pass through on foot,
29 BOEIPA ka Pathen loh kaimih taengah m'paek khohmuen la Jordan lamkah ka lan uh vaengah Seir ah aka om Esau koca rhoek neh Ar ah aka om Moab rhoek loh kai ham a saii uh bangla sai van mai,’ ka ti nah.
just like the descendants of Esau living in Seir and the Moabites living in Ar allowed us, until we cross over the Jordan into the country that the Lord our God is giving to us.”
30 Te vaengah mamih lan sak ham te Heshbon manghai Sihon loh a kohuem pawh. Tedae tihnin kah bangla BOEIPA na Pathen loh nang kut dongah paek a ngaih dongah ni Sihon kah mueihla te a mangkhak sak tih a thinko khaw a ning sak.
But Sihon king of Heshbon refused to let us pass through, for the Lord your God gave him a stubborn spirit and an obstinate attitude, so the Lord could hand him over to you, as he has now done.
31 Tedae BOEIPA loh kai taengah, 'So lah, Sihon neh anih khohmuen te na mikhmuh ah tloeng hamla ka tawn coeng. A khohmuen te pang pah ham tawn pah lamtah huul pah,’ a ti.
Then the Lord told me, “Look, I have started handing Sihon and his land over to you. Now you can begin to conquer and take over his land.”
32 Te vaengah Sihon neh amah pilnam pum loh caemtloek neh mamih doe ham Jahaz ah ha pawk.
Sihon and his whole army came out to fight us at Jahaz.
33 Tedae anih te mamih kah BOEIPA Pathen loh mamih mikhmuh la han thak dongah amah neh anih koca rhoek kah a ca khaw, a pilnam pum khaw n'tloek uh.
The Lord our God handed him over to us, and we killed him, his sons, and all his army.
34 Te vaengah a khopuei boeih te m'buem pa uh tih khopuei takuem te n'thup uh. Huta tongpa neh camoe rhaengnaeng khaw m'paih uh pawh.
We also captured all his towns, and set apart for destruction the people of every town: men, women, and children. We didn't leave any survivors.
35 Tedae rhamsa te mamih ham m'poelyoe uh tih khopuei rhoek te kutbuem la m'buem uh.
All we took for ourselves was the livestock and plunder from the towns we'd captured.
36 Arnon soklong tuikung kah Aroer lamkah soklong khopuei Gilead pataeng khaw mamih ham aka phoeng khorha la om pawh. Tedae mamih kah BOEIPA Pathen loh mamih mikhmuh ah boeih a tloeng.
No town had walls too high for us to conquer—from Aroer on the edge of the Arnon Valley, the town in the valley, all the way to Gilead. The Lord our God handed them all over to us.
37 Tedae Ammon koca rhoek kah khohmuen tah mamih BOEIPA Pathen kah a uen vanbangla Jabbok soklong paem boeih neh tlang kah khopuei boeih khaw ben uh boeh.
But you didn't go anywhere near the country of the Ammonites—the area that borders the Jabbok River or the towns of the hill country, or any other place that the Lord our God had placed off limits.
