< Joshua 10 >

1 Jerusalem lengpa Adoni-Zedek hin Joshua’n Jericho khopi le alengpau asuhmang banga Ai leh alengpau asuhmanghel chu ajadohtan ahi. Gibeon miten jong Israelte chu akicham piuvin amaho mi in akiheilut tauve tijong ahetan ahi.
Now it came to pass, when Adonizedek king of Jerusalem had heard how Joshua had taken Ai, and had utterly destroyed it; as he had done to Jericho and its king, so he had done to Ai and its king; and how the inhabitants of Gibeon had made peace with Israel, and were among them;
2 Hijeh chun amaleh mipite akichalheh jengun ahi. Ajeh chu Gibeon hi khopi lentah ahin leng khopi dangho tete ahin chuleh Ai sanga jong khopi lenjo ahin, Gibeon mite jongchu galsatna hatte ahiuve tijong ajan ahi.
That they feared greatly, because Gibeon was a great city, as one of the royal cities, and because it was greater than Ai, and all its men were mighty.
3 Hijeh chun Jerusalem leng Adoni-Zedek chun leng dangho akoukhommin, amaho chu Hebron lengpa Hoham, Jermeth lengpa Peram, Lachish lengpa Japhia chuleh Eglon lengpa Dabir ahiuve.
Therefore Adonizedek king of Jerusalem sent to Hoham king of Hebron, and to Piram king of Jarmuth, and to Japhia king of Lachish, and to Debir king of Eglon, saying,
4 “Hungunlang Gibeon mite suhmangna din neihung kithopiuvin,” tin atemmun ahi, ajeh chu “Amahon Joshua leh Israelte toh kichamna asemmun ahi,” ati.
Come up to me, and help me, that we may smite Gibeon: for it hath made peace with Joshua and with the children of Israel.
5 Hijeh chun Amormite leng-nga hochu galsat dingin akiloikhom tauvin ahi. Hichun amahon asepaiteu chu akhom khommun Gibeon mite chu ana nokhum tauvin ahi.
Therefore the five kings of the Amorites, the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, the king of Eglon, gathered themselves together, and went up, they and all their hosts, and encamped before Gibeon, and made war against it.
6 Gibeon miten Gilgal ngahmunna um Joshua komma chun thulhut ding mi gangtah’in asoltauvin ahi. “Nasohte hi neidonda hihbeh’un, gangtah’in hungun lang neihung kithopiuvin lang neihung huhdoh’un, ajeh chu thinglhanga cheng Amor lengho akithokhommun eihung delkhum tauve,” atiuve.
And the men of Gibeon sent to Joshua to the camp at Gilgal, saying, Do not forsake thy servants; come up to us quickly, and save us, and help us: for all the kings of the Amorites that dwell in the mountains are gathered together against us.
7 Joshua leh asepaite chengse leh galhat laise toh Gilgal adalhauvin Gibeonte kithopi dingin akontauve.
So Joshua went up from Gilgal, he, and all the people of war with him, and all the mighty men of valour.
8 Pakaiyin Joshua kommah “Amahokhu kicha hih’un, ajeh chu keiman amaho chunga khu galjona kapeh’u nahitauve. Amaho khatcha nangho masanga dingngam louding ahiuve.” Tin aseipeh tai.
And the LORD said to Joshua, Fear them not: for I have delivered them into thy hand; there shall not a man of them stand before thee.
9 Joshua chun Gilgalla kon in jankhovah’in lam ajotnin Amor galmite chu kigingmanlou hellin anokhum tauvin ahi.
Joshua therefore came to them suddenly, and went up from Gilgal all night.
10 Pakaiyin amaho chu atijatsah’in, hitichun Israelten Amor mite chu Gibeon’ah atam a tam athatnun ahi. Hijouchun Israelten galmi hochu Beth-horon geijin adellutnun Azekah leh Makkedah lampi geijin abantha peh’un ahi.
And the LORD destroyed them before Israel, and slew them with a great slaughter at Gibeon, and chased them along the way that goeth up to Bethhoron, and smote them to Azekah, and to Makkedah.
11 Amor mite chu Beth-horon lamlen lammah anungjam peh’un ahileh Pakaiyin vanna kon in gellom nasatah ajuhlhah sah’in Azekah alhunkahseuvin aban thagam peh’in ahi. Israelten chemma athasang’un gellin atha atamjon ahi.
And it came to pass, as they fled from before Israel, and were in the descent to Bethhoron, that the LORD cast down great stones from heaven upon them to Azekah, and they died: they were more who died with hailstones than they whom the children of Israel slew with the sword.
12 Hicheni chun Pakaiyin Israelte chu Amor mite chunga galjona anapen ahi. Joshua’n Israel mipite mitmu changtah’in Pakai hengah anataovin, “Gibeon chungah nisa dingden hen chuleh lha jong Aijalon phaicham chungah dingden hen” ati.
Then spoke Joshua to the LORD in the day when the LORD delivered up the Amorites before the children of Israel, and he said in the sight of Israel, Sun, stand thou still upon Gibeon; and thou, Moon, in the valley of Ajalon.
13 Hitichun nisa leh lha chu Israel nammiten agalmite ajokah seuvin ama muncheh’a adingden lhontan ahi. Hiche thilsoh hi Jashar lekhabua kijihlutna hilouham? Nisa chu vanlaijolla anading dennin nidanga nisalhum ngai bangin analhumpon ahi.
And the sun stood still, and the moon stayed, until the people had avenged themselves upon their enemies. Is not this written in the book of Jasher? So the sun stood still in the midst of heaven, and hasted not to go down about a whole day.
14 Pakaiyin amite taona anasanna-ah hitobang hi tumasang leh khonung jengin jong anaumkhapon ahi. Tahbeh mongin Pakaiyin hiche nikho chun Israelte dingin gal anasat peh’in ahi.
And there was no day like that before it or after it, that the LORD hearkened to the voice of a man: for the LORD fought for Israel.
15 Hiche jouchun Joshua leh Israel sepaite chu Gilgal ngahmunnah ahung kilekit tauvin ahi.
And Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, to the camp at Gilgal.
16 Gal kisat laitah chun leng nga hochu Makeddah songkoa ana kisellun ahi.
But these five kings fled, and hid themselves in a cave at Makkedah.
17 Joshua’n amaho chu ahin mudoh phatnun,
And it was told Joshua, saying, The five kings are found hid in a cave at Makkedah.
18 Hitihin thupeh ananeijin ahi, “Songkohom chu songlentah’in sing’unlang lengho chu ahung potdoh louna diuvin apangah chun angah ding mi koijun,” ati.
And Joshua said, Roll great stones upon the mouth of the cave, and set men by it to keep them:
19 “Adangse chun galmi hochu nungdellun lang anung langa kon in satchap jengun, akhopiu nunglhunsah kit louvin sugam jengun, ajeh chu Pakai na Pathennun amaho chu nangho khutna napehdoh’u ahitai,” ati.
And stay you not, but pursue your enemies, and smite the rear of them; permit them not to enter into their cities: for the LORD your God hath delivered them into your hand.
20 Joshua le Israel sepaiten galmi hochu asuhmangsoh kahseuvin athat that jengun ahi. Hitichun kul kigetkhum akhopiuva jamlut mi themchakhat tailou adangse chu abonchauvin asumangsoh hellun ahi.
And it came to pass, when Joshua and the children of Israel had finished slaying them with a very great slaughter, till they were consumed, that the rest who remained of them entered into fortified cities.
21 Hiche jouchun, Israelte chu Joshua kom Makkedah ngahmunnah bitkeijin akilekitnun ahi. Hiche kalchu koiman Israelte dounan thu themchakhatcha jong aseipoh ngamtapouvin ahi.
And all the people returned to the camp to Joshua at Makkedah in peace: none moved his tongue against any of the children of Israel.
22 Hiche jouchun Joshua’n, “Songkohom kisinna songlentah chu ladoh’unlang leng nga hochu kakommah hinpuijun” ati.
Then said Joshua, Open the mouth of the cave, and bring those five kings to me out of the cave.
23 Hichun amahon leng nga hochu songko homma konchun ahinpuidoh’un, amaho chu, Jerusalem lengpa, Hebron lengpa, Jermuth lengpa, Lachish lengpa chuleh Eglon lengpa ahiuve.
And they did so, and brought those five kings to him out of the cave, the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, and the king of Eglon.
24 Amaho chu ahinpuidoh phatnun, Joshua’n gallamkai ho kommachun, “Hungun lang nakengphang’un lengho ngongchang hi chonphauvin” ati. Hichun amahon asei bangchun abollun ahi.
And it came to pass, when they brought out those kings to Joshua, that Joshua called for all the men of Israel, and said to the captains of the men of war who went with him, Come near, put your feet upon the necks of these kings. And they came near, and put their feet upon the necks of them.
25 Joshua’n amite kommachun, “Kicha hih’un tijatna jong neihih’un, hatnunlang hang’un, ajeh chu Pakaiyin nagalmiteu chunga hitobanga hi abolsohkei ding ahi” ati.
And Joshua said to them, Fear not, nor be dismayed, be strong and of good courage: for thus shall the LORD do to all your enemies against whom ye fight.
26 Hiche jouchun Joshua’n leng nga hochu athatsoh keijin thingphung nga chunga chun akhai sang in, nilhah chan geijin akhaijun ahi.
And afterward Joshua smote them, and slew them, and hanged them on five trees: and they were hanging upon the trees until the evening.
27 Nisalhum kon in, Joshua thupeh dungjuijin lengho tahsa chu thingchunga kon in alalhauvin anakiselnau songko homsunga chun aseplutnun ahi. Hijeh chun hiche songkohom chu songlentah ho asekhummun tuni channgeijin aummin ahi.
And it came to pass at the time of the setting of the sun, that Joshua commanded, and they took them down from the trees, and cast them into the cave in which they had been hid, and laid great stones upon the cave’s mouth, which remain until this very day.
28 Hicheni mamachun Joshua leh Israelten Madekkah khopi chu alauvin asumang tauve. Aman khopi sunga umjouse chu alengpau pummin athatgammun koimacha ahinghoi pouve. Aman amaho chu athatsoh’in Jericho lengpa atha bangin Madekkah lengpa jongchu athatnin ahi.
And that day Joshua took Makkedah, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and its king he utterly destroyed, them, and all the souls that were in it; he let none remain: and he did to the king of Makkedah as he did to the king of Jericho.
29 Hiche jouchun, Joshua le Israelte chu acheuvin Libnah aganokhum’un ahi.
Then Joshua passed from Makkedah, and all Israel with him, to Libnah, and fought against Libnah:
30 Hiche jouchun, Pakaiyin hiche khopi le alengpau chu amaho khutnah anapedohtan ahi. Aman khatcha jong hinghoi louvin athatsoh keijin ahi. Hiche jouchun Joshua’n Jericho lengpa atha bangin Libnah lengpa jong chu anathatnin ahi.
And the LORD delivered it also, and its king, into the hand of Israel; and he smote it with the edge of the sword, and all the souls that were in it; he let none remain in it; but did to its king as he did to the king of Jericho.
31 Libnah a kon in Joshua leh Israelte chu Lechish a acheuvin agadelkhum’un ahi.
And Joshua passed from Libnah, and all Israel with him, to Lachish, and encamped against it, and fought against it:
32 Hichea jonghin, Pakaiyin Lechish chu amaho khutnah apedoh’in, Joshua’n anini chan nin hijongchu ajouvin Libnah abolna bang bangin athatgam sohkeijin ahi.
And the LORD delivered Lachish into the hand of Israel, who took it on the second day, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and all the souls that were in it, according to all that he had done to Libnah.
33 Lechish anadelkhum’u chun, Gezar lengpa Haram chu hiche khopi kithopi dingchun asepaite ahinpuijin ahung lhuntan ahi. Ahinlah Joshua’n khatcha jong hinghoi louvin asepaite le amaho chu athatgam tan ahi.
Then Horam king of Gezer came up to help Lachish; and Joshua smote him and his people, until he had left him none remaining.
34 Hijouchun Joshua le Israel sepaite chu acheuvin Eglon agadelkhum’un ahi.
And from Lachish Joshua passed to Eglon, and all Israel with him; and they encamped against it, and fought against it:
35 Hicheni chun hiche khopi jongchu alauvin asunga mijouse chu athat tauve. Aman Lechish anabolna bangin abonchauvin anasumang sohkeijin ahi.
And they took it on that day, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and all the souls that were in it he utterly destroyed that day, according to all that he had done to Lachish.
36 Eglon’a kon in Joshua le Israelte Hebron geijin achetouvun aganokhummun ahi.
And Joshua went up from Eglon, and all Israel with him, to Hebron; and they fought against it:
37 Amahon hiche khopi chu alauvin amipite chu alengpau pummin athatnun, khatcha ahinghoi pouvin ahi. Amahon vella um kho jouse jongchu hitimachun anabollun, Eglon abolna bang bangu chun asunga um mipite jouse chu asumang sohkeijin ahi.
And they took it, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and its king, and all its cities and all the souls that were in them; he left none remaining, according to all that he had done to Eglon; but destroyed it utterly, and all the souls that were in it.
38 Hiche jouchun Joshua le Israelte chu ahung kinung heijun Debir ahin delkhummun ahi.
And Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, to Debir; and fought against it:
39 Akhopi chu alenpau toh vella kho jouse jongchu alauvin ahi. Aman khatcha hinghoi louvin abonchan anathat gammin ahi. Aman Debir leh alengpa abolna bangle Hebron leh alengpa chuleh Libnah leh alengpa abolna bangin anabollin ahi.
And he took it, and its king, and all its cities; and they smote them with the edge of the sword, and utterly destroyed all the souls that were in them; he left none remaining: as he had done to Hebron, so he did to Debir, and to its king; as he had done also to Libnah, and to its king.
40 Hitichun Joshua’n gampumpi chu anajoutan ahi, thinglhang gamkolsunga alenghou le amipiteu, Negiv gamleh, lhumlam molbul gamgi chuleh molnoisuhse ana losoh’in ahi. Pakaiyin ana thupeh bang bangin, aman koimacha hinghoi louvin agamsunga mipiho jouse ana sumangsoh keijin ahi.
So Joshua smote all the country of the hills, and of the south, and of the vale, and of the springs, and all their kings: he left none remaining, but utterly destroyed all that breathed, as the LORD God of Israel commanded.
41 Joshua’n Kedesh barnea-a pat Gaza gei, Goshen khopi vel gamho le Gibeon gamgi geijin mihem ahinthatgam sohkeijin ahi.
And Joshua smote them from Kadeshbarnea even to Gaza, and all the country of Goshen, even to Gibeon.
42 Pakai Israelte Pathen chun amite dinga gal ahinsatpeh jeh’in khatvei pansa-a agal konna-ah Joshua’n hiche lengho jouse le agamhou ahin banlah sohkeijin ahi.
And all these kings and their land did Joshua take at one time, because the LORD God of Israel fought for Israel.
43 Hiche jouchun Joshua le Israelte sepaiho chu Gilgal ngah munnah ahung kilekit tauvin ahi.
And Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, to the camp in Gilgal.
