Joshua 5
1 Amih a kat khuiah BOEIPA loh Israel ca rhoek mikhmuh lamkah Jordan tui a haang sak te Jordan khotlak rhalvangan kah Amori manghai boeih neh tuitunli phaikah Kanaan manghai rhoek boeih loh a yaak uh vaengah a thinko paci uh tih Israel ca rhoek kah mikhmuh ah a khuikah mueihla om voel pawh.
As soon as all the kings of the Amorites on the west side of the Jordan, and all the kings of the Canaanites, who were along the coast of the Great Sea, heard that Yahweh had dried up the waters of the Jordan until the people of Israel had crossed over, their hearts melted, and there was no longer any spirit in them because of the people of Israel.
2 Te tue ah Joshua te BOEIPA loh, “Namah loh lungpang cunghang saii lamtah Israel ca rhoek te yahhmui koekthoek rhet pah bal laeh,” a ti nah.
At that time Yahweh said to Joshua, “Make flint knives and once more circumcise all the males of Israel.”
3 Te dongah Joshua amah loh lungpang cunghang a saii tih Israel ca rhoek kah yahhmui te Haaraloth som ah a rhet pah.
Then Joshua made himself flint knives and he circumcised all the males of Israel at Gibeath Haaraloth.
4 Joshua loh yahhmui a rhet pah kawng te he tlam he om. Egypt lamkah aka hlah uh pilnam boeih neh caemtloek hlang boeih, tongpa rhoek khaw Egypt lamkah ha nong uh tih longpueng kah khosoek ah duek uh coeng.
This is the reason Joshua circumcised them: All the males who had come out of Egypt, including all the men of war, had died in the wilderness along the way, after they came out from Egypt.
5 Pilnam aka pawk boeih te yahhmui rhet la om ngawn coeng dae Egypt lamkah ha hlah uh tih longpueng khosoek kah aka thaang pilnam boeih tah yahhmui rhet uh pawh.
Though all the males who came out of Egypt were circumcised, still, none of the boys born in the wilderness on the way out of Egypt had been circumcised.
6 BOEIPA ol te a yaak uh pawt dongah Egypt lamkah aka lo caemtloek hlang kah namtu boeih loh a mitmoeng duela Israel ca rhoek loh khosoek ah kum likip poengdoe uh. Te dongah Tekah khohmuen amih tueng voel pawt ham ni BOEIPA loh amih te a tap. Suktui neh khoitui aka long khohmuen te mamih taengah paek hamla a napa rhoek taengah BOEIPA loh a caeng dae.
For the people of Israel walked forty years in the wilderness until all the people, that is, all the men of war who had come out of Egypt, died, because they did not obey the voice of Yahweh. Yahweh swore to them that he would not let them see the land that he had sworn to their ancestors that he would give to us, a land flowing with milk and honey.
7 Amih yueng la aka poe a ca rhoek te tah longpueng ah yahhmui a rhet uh pawt dongah pumdul la aka om rhoek te Joshua loh yahhmui a rhet pah.
It was their children that Yahweh raised up in their place that Joshua circumcised, because they had not been circumcised on the way.
8 Yahhmui rhet te namtom boeih loh a coeng uh van neh a saibawn due rhaehhmuen ah om uh.
When they were all circumcised, they remained where they were in the camp until they healed.
9 Joshua te khaw BOEIPA loh, “Egypt kah kokhahnah te nangmih pum dong lamloh tihnin ah ka palet coeng,” a ti nah. Te dongah tekah a hmuen ming khaw tihnin due Gilgal la a khue.
Then Yahweh said to Joshua, “This day I have rolled away the disgrace of Egypt from you.” So, the name of that place has been called Gilgal until this present day.
10 Israel ca rhoek loh Gilgal ah a rhaeh uh vaengkah hlasae hnin hlai li hlaem ah Yoom te Jerikho kolken ah a saii uh.
The people of Israel camped at Gilgal. They kept the Passover on the fourteenth day of the month, in the evening, on the plains of Jericho.
11 Yoom vuen ah khohmuen cangrhuem, vaidamding neh cang rhoh khaw tekah khohnin buelh ah a caak uh.
On the day after Passover, that same day, they ate some of the produce of the land on the day, unleavened bread and roasted grain.
12 Khohmuen cangrhuem a caak uh vuen ah manna khaw duem van coeng. Te dongah Israel ca rhoek ham manna om voel pawt dae tekah kum dongah tah Kanaan kah khohmuen cangthaih ni a caak uh coeng.
The manna stopped on the day after they ate the produce of the land. There was no longer manna for the people of Israel, but they ate the produce of the land of Canaan that year.
13 Jerikho kho ah Joshua loh a om vaengah a dan van dae a hmai ah hlang pakhat pai tih a kut neh cunghang a yueh te lawt a hmuh. Te dongah anih te Joshua loh a paan tih, “Nang he kaimih hui dae nim, kaimih kah rhal dae nim,” a ti nah.
When Joshua was near Jericho, he lifted up his eyes and looked, and behold, a man was standing in front of him; he had drawn his sword and it was in his hand. Joshua went to him and said, “Are you for us or for our enemies?”
14 Te vaengah, “Moenih kai he BOEIPA kah caempuei mangpa lam ni tahae ah ka pawk,” a ti nah. Te dongah Joshua loh a hmai longah diklai la bakop tih a bawk. Te phoeiah anih te, “Ka BOEIPA loh a sal ham he balae a thui?,” a ti nah.
He said, “Neither. For I am the commander of the army of Yahweh. Now I have come.” Then Joshua lay facedown on the ground to worship and said to him, “What does my master say to his servant?”
15 Te dongah BOEIPA kah caempuei mangpa loh Joshua te, “Na pai nah hmuen he a cim dongah na kho dong lamkah na khokhom te pit laeh,” a ti nah vanbangla Joshua long khaw a saii van.
The commander of Yahweh's army said to Joshua, “Take off your sandals from your feet, because the place you are standing is holy.” That is what Joshua did.
