Danbu Ni Na 1

1 Mose’n thu hichengse hi, Israel mite lhumlam Jordan vadung gamthip noiya aum laiyun aheng uvah ana seipeh in, chule Jordan phaicham Suph, Paran, Tophel, Laban, Hazeroth le Di-zahab kimlaiya chun ngahmun akisem un ahi.

These [are] the words which Moses spoke to all Israel on the east side of Jordan in the wilderness, in the plain over against Suf, between Paran, and Tophel, and Laban, and Hazeroth, and Dizahab.

2 Sinai molsang apat Kadesh-barnea chan chu angaiya banga nisom le khat kenglam ahin, chule Seir molsang kijotpa ahi.

([There are] eleven days [journey] from Horeb by the way of mount Seir to Kadesh-barnea.)

3 Israel mite chun kum somli jou lhasom le lhakhat lhinna nikho masapen in Egypt gamsung ahin dalha tauvin, Pakaiyin Mose henga aseipeh bang chun, Israel mite jouse aseipeh soh keiyin ahi.

And it came to pass in the fortieth year, in the eleventh month, on the first [day] of the month, [that] Moses spoke to the children of Israel, according to all that the LORD had given him in commandment to them;

4 Hichengse hi Amor mite Sihon lengpa Heshbon alal laiya thilsoh ahin, chule Bashan Og lengpan Ashtaroth le Edrei avaihop lai ahi.

After he had slain Sihon the king of the Amorites, who dwelt in Heshbon, and Og the king of Bashan, who dwelt at Astaroth in Edrei:

5 Israel mite Jordan vadung solam Moab gam'a aum laiyuva, Pakaiyin athupeh bang in Mose’n jong chingthei tah a aheng uva ahilchen chu anoiya chengse hi ahi.

On the east side of Jordan, in the land of Moab, began Moses to declare this law, saying,

6 “Sinai molsanga kaum laiyun Pakai, Pathen in kaheng uva hiti hin aseiye, 'Hiche molchunga hin phat sottah naum tauve.'

The LORD our God spoke to us in Horeb, saying, Ye have dwelt long enough in this mount:

7 Tun ngahmun phelhauvin cheuvin. Amor mite chenna thinglhang gam chule akimvel jouse le Jordan phaicham, Canaan mite, Lebanon mite chule Euphrate vadung chan gei cheuvin.

Turn you, and take your journey, and go to the mount of the Amorites, and to all [the places] nigh to it, in the plain, on the hills, and in the vale, and in the south, and by the sea-side, to the land of the Canaanites, and to Lebanon, to the great river, the river Euphrates.

8 Vetan, Keiman hiche gam leiset jouse hi nangma kapeh nahi! Chen lang agam khu galo tan, ajeh chu hiche gam leiset jouse hi Pakaiyin peh dinga kitepsa napu napateu Abraham, Isaac chule Jacob chilhahte jouse loding ahi.”

Behold, I have set the land before you: go in and possess the land which the LORD swore to your fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, to give to them and to their seed after them.

9 Mose’n asei kit in, hiche phatlai chun kana seiyin, nangho jouse ka changa kavaihom hi, keima din ahahsa lheh jeng tai.

And I spoke to you at that time, saying, I am not able to bear you myself alone:

10 Pakai, Pathen in na mite apun sah in, ahsi jat in nasemdoh tauve!

The LORD your God hath multiplied you, and behold, ye [are] this day as the stars of heaven for multitude.

11 Chule napu napa khanga pat Pakai, Pathen chun asang sang in napunbe sah uhen, Akitepna bang in phatthei naboh uhen!

(The LORD God of your fathers make you a thousand times so many more as ye [are], and bless you, as he hath promised you!)

12 Nangho vetsui hi abei tapon, naboina hou iti kachanga kasuh lhapjou ding ham?

How can I alone bear your encumbrance, and your burden, and your strife?

13 Hijeh chun ama ama insung kaiya konin thu hethem upa phabep lheng doh tem in, keiman ama ho chu nangho lamkaiya ka pansah ding ahi.

Take ye wise men, and understanding, and known among your tribes, and I will make them rulers over you.

14 Nang in jong, ‘Na thilgon hi aphalheh jenge tia nana seiye.’

And ye answered me, and said, The thing which thou hast spoken [is] good [for us] to do.

15 Keiman upa ching le thil hethem phabep ama insung kaiya kona nalhen doh hochu ka puijin, nangma thutan vaihom dinga ka pansah ahi. Miphabep chu mi sangsom chunga vaihom din apang in, miphabep mi jakhat chung, mi somnga chung chule mi phabep chu mi som chunga ding ahi.

So I took the chief of your tribes, wise men, and known, and made them heads over you, captains over thousands, and captains over hundreds, and captains over fifties, and captains over tens, and officers among your tribes.

16 Hichun keiman thutan vaihom ho henga ka seiyin, ‘Nanghon na sopiu Israel mite le gamdang mi nalah uva hung cheng hoa kona thutan ding nahin mudoh diu ahi. Na dinmun cheh uva dettah in pang cheh uvin.

And I charged your judges at that time, saying, Hear [the causes] between your brethren, and judge righteously between [every] man and his brother, and the stranger [that is] with him.

17 Chule thutanna hoa sihneina ima nei hihhel uvin. Ahao hihen avai chung hi jongleh thutan ding chu phatah in kholchil sohkeiyun. Mi khattou lunghan jeh in kicha hih uvin, ajeh chu adih’e tia thu natan uchu Pathen dei ahi. Amavang thutan ding ahahsa behseh aum leh keima henga hin lhut uvin, keiman hichu katan ding ahi.

Ye shall not respect persons in judgment; [but] ye shall hear the small as well as the great; ye shall not be afraid of the face of man; for the judgment [is] God's: and the cause that is too hard for you, bring to me, and I will hear it.

18 Hichun keiman ijakai bol ding jouse naheng uva kaseipeh soh keiyin ahi.

And I commanded you at that time all the things which ye should do.

19 Pakai, Pathen in eithu peh bang uchun, Sinai mol dalhan gamthip lah’a kichapum in ikitol uvin, Amor mite chenna lam ijon tauvin Kadesh-barnea mun ilhung tauve.

And when we departed from Horeb, we went through all that great and terrible wilderness, which ye saw by the way of the mountain of the Amorites, as the LORD our God commanded us; and we came to Kadesh-barnea.

20 Hichun keiman hiti hin kaseiye, ‘Tun nangho Amor mite chenna gam Pakai, Pathen in eipeh nau gam i-lhung tauvin ahi.

And I said to you, Ye have come to the mountain of the Amorites, which the LORD our God doth give to us.

21 Vetan! Pakaiyin na masang lam uva gam nakoi peh tauvin ahi. Cheuvin lang galo tauvin ajeh chu na Pakai, na Pathen uchun nangho dinga kitepna anei ahi. Kicha hih uvin, chule lungthoi hih un, ati.

Behold, the LORD thy God hath set the land before thee: go up [and] possess [it], as the LORD God of thy fathers hath said to thee; fear not, neither be discouraged.

22 Ahinlah naboncha uvin kahenga hiti hin nasei uve, ‘Amasan ei lamkai diuvin misol masa ute chutileh amahon ilhunna diu lampi aboncha ahin hetthem diu, chuteng hoilai khopi muna chu ilhun thei uvem kicheh ding ahi.

And ye came near to me every one of you, and said, We will send men before us, and they shall explore the land for us, and bring us word again by what way we must go up, and into what cities we shall come.

23 Hichu pha kasan, mi somleni kalheng doh in, ama ama insung kai lhah akona mikhat cheh ahiuve.

And the saying pleased me well: and I took twelve men of you, one of a tribe:

24 Amaho gamthip lama chun achepeh uvin chule Eshcol phaicham ahung gei tauvin, hiche muna chun aum tauvin ahi.

And they turned and ascended the mountain, and came to the valley of Eshcol, and explored it.

25 Amahon gamsung gasoh phabep ahin choi un hitihin asei uve. “Pakai, Pathen in eipeh nau gam khu tahbeh in apha lheh jenge, atiuvin ahi.”

And they took of the fruit of the land in their hands, and brought [it] down to us, and brought us word again, and said, [It is] a good land which the LORD our God doth give us.

26 Ahinlah nanghon Pakai, Pathen thupeh nit louvin agam sunga che ding nanom pouve.

Notwithstanding, ye would not go up, but rebelled against the commandment of the LORD your God:

27 Na ponbuh uva kon in hiti hin na seiyun, ‘Pakaiyin eimu dauvin ahileh ‘Hijeh achu Egypt gam'a kona eihin puidoh uva, Amor mite thagam sah ding ati, ahi.’

And ye murmured in your tents, and said, Because the LORD hated us, he hath brought us forth from the land of Egypt, to deliver us into the hand of the Amorites, to destroy us.

28 Tua hoiya iche diu hitam? Isopite houvin thil um chan ijakai asei uvin, ‘Agammite khu eiho sang in asang thei un chule eiho sang in jong athahat theijun, akhopi hou jong alen thei in chule khopi kul kigen ho jong asang theijin chunga thangvan aphai! Chule hiche muna chun Anak chilhahte jong kamu uve.’

Whither shall we go up? our brethren have discouraged our heart, saying, The people [are] greater and taller than we; the cities [are] great and walled up to heaven; and moreover, we have seen the sons of the Anakims there.

29 Ahinlah keiman hiti hin ka seipeh uve, ‘Amaho jeh in tija hih in, ki jong kicha hih in!

Then I said to you, Dread not, neither be afraid of them.

30 Na Pakai, na Pathen'u na masang lama uva achejing in ahi. Egypt gam'a namu bang uva, Pakaiyin nangho dinga gal asat ding ahi.

The LORD your God who goeth before you; he shall fight for you, according to all that he did for you in Egypt before your eyes;

31 Mipan acha akhohsah bang in, Pakai, Pathen in nache lena gamthip lamlhung keiya iti nahin puigal kaiham, ti nangman na hesoh keiyin ahi.

And in the wilderness, where thou hast seen how the LORD thy God bore thee, as a man doth bear his son, in all the way that ye went, until ye came into this place.

32 Ahinlah hichan geiya anatoh jouvin, nanghon na Pakai, na Pathen'u na tahsan hih laiyuve,

Yet in this thing ye did not believe the LORD your God,

33 amachu namasang lamuva achen munpha laipen achun ngahmun asem in chule janteng meivah khoma naveng jiuvin, sunteng meibol khoma na lhonpi jiuvin ahi.’

Who went in the way before you, to search out for you a place to pitch your tents [in], in fire by night, to show you by what way ye should go, and in a cloud by day.

34 Pakaiyin na phunchel nahou ahin jadoh tan ahileh, alung hang lheh jeng tan, lungdamsel in kitepna aneiyin ahi.

And the LORD heard the voice of your words, and was wroth, and swore, saying,

35 Itinama jongleh nanghon hiche khanga lungphat louna keng puma napu, napateu khanga pat peh dinga ka tepsa gam khu nalo louhel diu ahi.

Surely there shall not one of these men of this evil generation see that good land, which I swore to give to your fathers,

36 Jephunneh chapa Caleb bouvin alo ding ahi. Aman hiche gam hi amu ding ahi, ajeh chu lunglha louva Pakai thupeh juijing ahi. Ama le achilhah ten hiche gam sung phabep masanga agamu masat bang uva alo diu ahi.

Save Caleb the son of Jephunneh; he shall see it, and to him will I give the land that he hath trod upon, and to his children, because he hath wholly followed the LORD.

37 Nangho jeh in keima chung jeng ajong Pakai alungphamo tan. Aman aseiyin, “Mose, nangma jeng jong gam tepna nalut lou ding ahi!”

Also the LORD was angry with me for your sakes, saying, Thou also shalt not go in thither.

38 Nangma khela Nun chapa Joshua chun mipi aboncha gamsung chana alamkai ding ahi. Ama chu tilkhou vin, ajeh chu aman Israel miten alodiu gam sung chana alam kai ding ahitai.

[But] Joshua the son of Nun, who standeth before thee, he shall go in thither. Encourage him: for he shall cause Israel to inherit it.

39 Keiman gam khu na chate kho hepha-loulai ho ka chensah ding ahi. Ajeh chu amahon eimat gamdiu ahitin na kichauve, hinlah amahon alo diu ahi.

Moreover, your little ones, which ye said should be a prey, and your children, which in that day had no knowledge between good and evil, they shall go in thither, and to them will I give it, and they shall possess it.

40 Tun nangho kileuvin gamthip jotpeh in, twipi san lam jon in che tauvin.

But [as for] you, turn ye, and take your journey into the wilderness by the way of the Red sea.

41 Chule nachonset phong uvin, “Pakai adia chonse kahi tauve! Pakai thupeh banga, gamsung akhu kache uva gal kaga sat diu ahi.” Ajeh chu namite hon athal cheh aki choiyun, gamsung lo ding khu baikhen chan agel un ahi.

Then ye answered and said to me, We have sinned against the LORD, we will go up and fight, according to all that the LORD our God commanded us. And when ye had girded on every man his weapons of war, ye were ready to ascend the hill.

42 Amavang Pakaiyin nangho koma seiyin tin thupeh aneiye, ‘Galsat nasat lou ding ahi, ajeh chu keiman kalhonpi lou ding, nangho bou na cheuva ahileh, nagal miteuvin nasat gam diu ahi.

And the LORD said to me, Say to them, Go not up, neither fight; for I [am] not among you; lest ye be smitten before your enemies.

43 Hiche hi keiman kaseipeh nahiuve, hinlah nangaisah pouvin, avelin Pakai doumah bolin galsat in nakon un ahi.

So I spoke to you; and ye would not hear, but rebelled against the commandment of the LORD, and presumptuously ascended the hill.

44 Chuin Amor mite chu khoite jat bang in ahung kon tauvin, Seir le Hormah chan geiyin nahin delkhum tauve.

And the Amorites, who dwelt on that mountain, came out against you, and chased you, as bees do, and destroyed you in Seir, [even] to Hormah.

45 Chuin Pakai henga kappum in nakile uvin, hinlah Aman nataona asang tapoi.

And ye returned and wept before the LORD; but the LORD would not hearken to your voice, nor give ear to you.

46 Hiti chun Kadesh muna phatsottah nacheng tauvin ahi.

So ye abode in Kadesh many days, according to the days that ye abode [there].
