Joshua 11

1 Hazor manghai Jabin loh a yaak vaengah Madon manghai Jobab, Shimron manghai neh Akshaph manghai,

And it came to pass, when Jabin king of Hazor had heard [those things], that he sent to Jobab king of Madon, and to the king of Shimron, and to the king of Achshaph,

2 tlangpuei tlang neh Kinnereth tuithim kolken kah manghai rhoek te khaw, kolrhawk neh khotlak Dore khamyai kah khaw a tah.

And to the kings that [were] on the north of the mountains, and of the plains south of Chinneroth, and in the valley, and in the borders of Dor on the west,

3 Khocuk khotlak kah Kanaan neh Amori, Khitti, Perizzi khaw, tlang kah Jebusi neh Mizpah kho Hermon kungdak kah Khivee kah khaw, a tah.

[And to] the Canaanite on the east and on the west, and [to] the Amorite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, and the Jebusite in the mountains, and [to] the Hivite under Hermon in the land of Mizpeh.

4 Te dongah amih te a lambong boeih neh pilnam loh tuipuei tuikaeng kah laivin bangla muep ha pawk uh tih a marhang khaw khawk, a leng khaw muep yet.

And they went out, they and all their hosts with them, much people, even as the sand that [is] upon the sea shore in multitude, with horses and chariots very many.

5 Tekah manghai rhoek loh boeih tuentah uh thae tih ha suntla uh. Te phoeiah Israel tloek ham Merom kah tui taengah tun rhaeh uh.

And when all these kings were met together, they came and pitched together at the waters of Merom, to fight against Israel.

6 Tedae BOEIPA loh Joshua taengah, “Amih mikhmuh ah rhih uh boeh, thangvuen he vaeng tue ah amih boeih te Israel mikhmuh ah kai loh a rhok la ka tloeng vetih a marhang khaw na haih bitni, a leng khaw hmai neh na hoeh bitni,” a ti nah.

And the LORD said unto Joshua, Be not afraid because of them: for to morrow about this time will I deliver them up all slain before Israel: thou shalt hough their horses, and burn their chariots with fire.

7 Te dongah Joshua amah neh caemtloek pilnam boeih loh Merom tui taengah thaeng cet tih amih te a tloek uh.

So Joshua came, and all the people of war with him, against them by the waters of Merom suddenly; and they fell upon them.

8 Te vaengah amih te BOEIPA loh Israel kut dongla a tloeng. Te dongah amih te a tloek uh tih Sidon puei, Misrephothmayim neh khocuk kah Mizpeh kolbawn due pataeng a hloem uh tih rhaengnaeng khaw a hlun mueh la a ngawn uh.

And the LORD delivered them into the hand of Israel, who smote them, and chased them unto great Zidon, and unto Misrephoth-maim, and unto the valley of Mizpeh eastward; and they smote them, until they left them none remaining.

9 BOEIPA loh a uen vanbangla Joshua loh amih taengah a saii. A marhang khaw a haih pah tih a leng te khaw hmai neh a hoeh pah.

And Joshua did unto them as the LORD bade him: he houghed their horses, and burnt their chariots with fire.

10 Tekah khohnin dongah Joshua loh ha bal tih Hazor neh Hazor manghai te a buem. Hazor tah a hmai ah ram takuem kah a lu la a om dongah cunghang neh a ngawn.

And Joshua at that time turned back, and took Hazor, and smote the king thereof with the sword: for Hazor beforetime was the head of all those kingdoms.

11 A khuikah hinglu boeih te khaw cunghang ha neh a ngawn tih hiil aka khueh boeih a hlun mueh la a thup phoeiah Hazor te hmai neh a hoeh.

And they smote all the souls that [were] therein with the edge of the sword, utterly destroying [them: ] there was not any left to breathe: and he burnt Hazor with fire.

12 Te dongah BOEIPA kah sal Moses loh a uen vanbangla manghai khopuei boeih neh a manghai boeih te Joshua loh a buem vaengah cunghang ha neh a ngawn tih a thup.

And all the cities of those kings, and all the kings of them, did Joshua take, and smote them with the edge of the sword, [and] he utterly destroyed them, as Moses the servant of the LORD commanded.

13 Tedae som kah aka pai khopuei boeih te Israel loh hoeh pawt tih Hazor amah bueng ni Joshua loh a hoeh.

But [as for] the cities that stood still in their strength, Israel burned none of them, save Hazor only; [that] did Joshua burn.

14 Khopuei rhoek kah kutbuem boeih neh rhamsa te Israel ca rhoek loh amamih ham a poel a yoeuh. Tedae hlang boeih te cunghang ha neh a ngawn tih hiil aka khueh boeih tah a mit a moeng hilah hlun voel pawh.

And all the spoil of these cities, and the cattle, the children of Israel took for a prey unto themselves; but every man they smote with the edge of the sword, until they had destroyed them, neither left they any to breathe.

15 BOEIPA loh a sal Moses a uen vanbangla Joshua te khaw Moses loh a uen. Te dongah BOEIPA loh Moses a uen olka boeih te a hmaii mueh la Joshua loh a saii.

As the LORD commanded Moses his servant, so did Moses command Joshua, and so did Joshua; he left nothing undone of all that the LORD commanded Moses.

16 Te dongah Joshua loh tlang kah khohmuen tom neh Negev pum khaw, Goshen khohmuen pum neh kolrhawk Arabah khaw, Israel tlang neh kolrhawk khaw,

So Joshua took all that land, the hills, and all the south country, and all the land of Goshen, and the valley, and the plain, and the mountain of Israel, and the valley of the same;

17 Seir la aka luei Halak tlang lamkah Lebanon kolbawn Baalgad khaw, Hermon tlang hmui khaw a loh. A manghai rhoek te khaw boeih a buem tih a ngawn phoeiah a duek sak.

[Even] from the mount Halak, that goeth up to Seir, even unto Baal-gad in the valley of Lebanon under mount Hermon: and all their kings he took, and smote them, and slew them.

18 Tekah manghai boeih te Joshua loh caemtloek neh a saii vaengah khohnin long khaw muep puh.

Joshua made war a long time with all those kings.

19 Gibeon kah khosa Khivee pawt atah Israel ca rhoek taengah moi aka thuung a om pawt dongah khopuei te caem neh boeih a loh.

There was not a city that made peace with the children of Israel, save the Hivites the inhabitants of Gibeon: all [other] they took in battle.

20 Amih loh BOEIPA taengah a lungbuei aka pom la om tih Israel te caem neh a mah uh. Te dongah BOEIPA loh Moses a uen vanbangla amih te mitmoeng sak ham lungmacil om mueh la a thup sak.

For it was of the LORD to harden their hearts, that they should come against Israel in battle, that he might destroy them utterly, [and] that they might have no favour, but that he might destroy them, as the LORD commanded Moses.

21 Te vaeng tue ah Joshua loh a paan bal tih Hebron, Debir, Anab tlang lamkah Anakim khaw, Judah tlang pum, Israel tlang boeih neh a khopuei rhoek te khaw a saii pah tih amih te Joshua amah loh a thup.

And at that time came Joshua, and cut off the Anakims from the mountains, from Hebron, from Debir, from Anab, and from all the mountains of Judah, and from all the mountains of Israel: Joshua destroyed them utterly with their cities.

22 Israel ca khohmuen ah Anakim tah hlun pawh. Gaza, Gath neh Ashdod kah bueng ni a sueng.

There was none of the Anakims left in the land of the children of Israel: only in Gaza, in Gath, and in Ashdod, there remained.

23 Te dongah BOEIPA loh Moses boeih a uen vanbangla khohmuen pum te Joshua loh a loh. Te phoeiah Israel taengah amah koca kah boelnah bangla Joshua rho a paek tih khohmuen khaw caemtloek lamloh mong van.

So Joshua took the whole land, according to all that the LORD said unto Moses; and Joshua gave it for an inheritance unto Israel according to their divisions by their tribes. And the land rested from war.
