< Joshua 5 >
1 Jordan lhumlamma cheng Amor mite lengho leh Mediterranean panga cheng Canaan mite lenghon Israel mipitehi a Pathennun Jordan vadung asuhkhangpeh’in ahin palgalkai sahtai ti ajahdoh phatnun kichatnan alungthimmu alhulhop gamtauvin ahi.
Now when all the kings of the Amorrhites, who dwelt beyond the Jordan westward, and all the kings of Chanaan, who possessed the places near the great sea, had heard that the Lord had dried up the waters of the Jordan before the children of Israel, till they passed over, their heart failed them, and there remained no spirit in them, fearing the coming in of the children of Israel.
2 Hiche pettah chu Pakaiyin Joshua kommah “Songhem chu chemcha bangin semminlang Israelte chu akhangni channin achep’u tanpeh’in,” ati.
At that time the Lord said to Josue: Make thee knives of stone, and circumcise the second time the children of Israel.
3 Hitichun Joshua’n jong songhem chemchan asemmin Israelte chu Gibeath-haaraoth munnah achep’u anatanpeh’in ahi.
He did what the Lord had commanded, and he circumcised the children of Israel in the hill of the foreskins.
4 Joshua’n amaho chu achepmu atanpeh louva khoh-a ahi, ajeh chu Egypt ahin dalhah uva galsatthei pasalho jouse chu gamthip gamma anathigam ah ahitauve.
Now this is the cause of the second circumcision: All the people that came out of Egypt that were males, all the men fit for war, died in the desert, during the time of the long going about in the way.
5 Egypt hindalha a pasalho jouse chu achepmu anakitan sohkeija ahiuvin, Ahinlah Egypt ma konna ahungpotdoh uva gamthip noija ahung kholjinnao kumsunga pengho chu achepmu kitan loulai ngen ahiuve.
Now these were all circumcised. But the people that were born in the desert,
6 Israelten Egypt ahin dalhah uva galsatthei jouse athigam kahseuva kum somli sunghi gamthip noija hung kholjinna ahiuve. Ajeh chu amahon Pakai thupeh anitlou jeh’un Pakaiyin khoiju le bongnoi lonna gam pehdinga ateppehnao gamchu alutsahlouna dinga ana kihahsella ahi.
Luring the forty years of the journey in the wide wilderness, were uncircumcised: till all they were consumed that had not heard the voice of the Lord, and to whom he had sworn before, that he would not shew them the land flowing with milk and honey.
7 Hijeh chun Joshua’n apateu mun lothei dinga hung kikhanlhit hochu achepmu atanpeh’u ahi. Ajeh chu amahohin gamtepgam ahinjotnauva hi achepmu ana kitan khaloulai ngen ahiuve.
The children of these succeeded in the place of their fathers, and were circumcised by Josue: for they were uncircumcised even as they were born, and no one had circumcised them in the way.
8 Pasal jouse achepmu akitan jehchun amaho adamdoh kahsen ngahmunna chun ana kicholdou taovin ahi.
Now after they were all circumcised, they remained in the same place of the camp, until they were healed.
9 Hichun Pakaiyin Joshua komma chun “Tunia hi Egypt gamma nasohchan nauva najumnao chu katolmangpeh’u ahitai,” ati. Hijeh a chu hiche mun chu tunichangeija Gilgal kitia ahitai.
And the Lord said to Josue: This day have I taken away from you the reproach of Egypt. And the name of that place was called Galgal, until this present day.
10 Israelten Gilgal munna ngahmun asemsungu lhamasa nisomle nili chan nilhahchun Jericho phaichamma kalchuh kut anamangun ahi.
And the children of Israel abode in Galgal, and they kept the phase on the fourteenth day of the month, at evening, in the plains of Jericho:
11 Hichejou ajing nikhotah chun agamsungsoh agamga cholsolou changlhah a kisemleh anchang kikang chu anapantauvin ahi.
And they ate on the next day unleavened bread of the corn of the land, and frumenty of the same year.
12 Amahon agamsungsoh agamga aneh masat niuvapat chun Manna akimutapon, mujong akimukit mongmong tapon ahi.
And the manna ceased after they ate of the corn of the land, neither did the children of Israel use that food any more, but they ate of the corn of the present year of the land of Chanaan.
13 Joshua chu Jericho khopi kom agalhun chun akhodah in chunglang agahvetleh akhutna chemjam kichoi mikhat amasanga adinchu amun ahi. Joshua chun ajonlutnin amapa chu ana dongin, “Nanghi eipanpi ding kagol nahim ahilouleh galmi nahim? ati.
And when Josue was in the field of the city of Jericho, he lifted up his eyes, and saw a man standing over against him: holding a drawn sword, and he went to him, and said: Art thou one of ours, or of our adversaries?
14 Amachun ahindonbutnin “Khatchachu kahipoi, keima Pakai sepaite lamkaija pang tuahi hungkon kahitai,” ati. Hichun Joshua chu tolla abohkhupmin achibeijin, “Ka Pakaiyin nalhacha keima hi ipi neibolsah got ham?” ati.
And he answered: No: but I am prince of the host of the Lord, and now I am come. Josue fell on his face to the ground. And worshipping, add: What saith my lord to his servant?
15 Pakai sepaite lamkai pachun adonbutnin, “Nakengkoh chu sutlhan ajeh chu nadinna chu muntheng ahi,” ati. Hichun Joshua’n aseibang chun aboltai.
Loose, saith he, thy shoes from off thy feet: for the place whereon thou standest is holy. And Josue did as was commanded him.
