< Thutan Vaihom Ho 11 >
1 Tun Gilead gam'a cheng Jepthah chu gal hattah anahi. Amahi Gilead chapa ahin amavang anuchu numei noti anahi.
Now Yiphthach the Gil'adite was a mighty man of valor, but he was the son of a harlot; and Gil'ad had begotten Yiphthach.
2 Gilead jinu chun chapa phabep ana neijin ahi, amahi ahung khanlet phat’un amahon Jepthah chu agam’uva kon in ana nodoh un ahi. Amahon Jepthah kommah, “Nangin ipau gouhi nachanthei louding ahi, ajeh chu nanghi numei chavai noti khat cha nahi bouve ahiuvin ahi.
And the wife of Gil'ad also bore him sons; and when the sons of the wife were grown up, they drove away Yiphthach, and said unto him, Thou shalt not inherit in the house of our father: for the son of another woman art thou.
3 Hijeh chun Jepthah chu asopi hoa kon in ana jamdoh in Tob gammah ana chengin ahi. Gangtah in aman anung juiding loi phabep ahin neipai tan ahi.
And Yiphthach fled away from his brothers, and dwelt in the land of Tob; and there gathered themselves to Yiphthach idle men, and they went out with him.
4 Hiche phatlai hin, Ammon miten Israelte chungah gal ahin boltan ahi.
And it came to pass after some time, that the children of 'Ammon made war against Israel.
5 Ammon miten ahin nokhum phat uhin, Gilead lamkaiten Tob ma um Jepthah hi akoutauvin ahi. Hiche lamkai hohin aseijun ahi,
And it was so, when the children of 'Ammon made war against Israel, that the elders of Gil'ad went to fetch Yiphthach out of the land of Tob.
6 “Hungin lang keiho lamkaijin hung pangtan! Ammon mite toh kisatna ding ahin neihung panpiuvin” atiuve.
And they said unto Yiphthach, Come, and become a leader unto us, that we may fight with the children of 'Ammon.
7 Ahin Jepthah chun amaho kommah, “Nanghon nei vetdaova appa in na konna neina nodoh u hilouham? Tua hahsatna nanei phat uva hi ipi dinga kakomma nahungu ham?” atin ahi.
And Yiphthach said unto the elders of Gil'ad, Did ye not hate me, and drive me away out of my father's house? and why are ye come unto me now, when ye are in distress?
8 Lamkaiho chun adonbutnun “Ajeh chu tuahi nangma kangai chatnu ahitai, nangman Ammon mitetoh kisatto na ahi neihung lamkaijuva ahileh keihon Gilead mite jouse chunga lamkaija kapansah dingu ahi” atiuve.
And the elders of Gil'ad said unto Yiphthach, Therefore are we now come back to thee, that thou mayest go with us, and fight against the children of 'Ammon; and thou shalt become unto us a head, unto all the inhabitants of Gil'ad.
9 Jepthah in lamkaiho komma chun hitin aseije, “Keima kahunga Pakaiyin Ammon mite chunga chu gal eijosah a ahileh nalamkai uva neipansah mongdiu ahinam?” ati.
And Yiphthach said unto the elders of Gil'ad, If ye bring me home again to fight against the children of 'Ammon, and the Lord give them up before me, shall I remain your head?
10 Lamkaihon adonbut’un, “Pakai chu ichunguva ahetoh in pangjing hen nangin nasei chanchu boldinga kakitep u ahi” atiuve.
And the elders of Gil'ad said unto Yiphthach, The Lord shall be a hearer between us, if we do not so according to thy word.
11 Hitichun Jepthah chu Gilead lamkaiho toh akilhon khom tauvin ahi, chuleh Gilead mipite chun alamkai diuvin apansah tauvin chule gal lamkai jong ahisah taove.
Then went Yiphthach with the elders of Gil'ad, and the people appointed him over them as head and as leader; and Yiphthach spoke all his words before the Lord in Mitzpah.
12 Hiche jouchun Jepthah in thupole ho Ammon lengpa komma asollin hitin aseije, “Ibola kagamsunga hi gal boldinga nahung ham?” ati.
And Yiphthach sent messengers unto the king of the children of 'Ammon, saying, What have I to do with thee, that thou art come unto me to fight against my land?
13 Ammon lengpan Jepthah thupole ho kommah hitin ahin seijuvin ahi, “Israelte Egypt ma konna ahungu chun, amahon kagammu, Arnon vadunga kon in Jabbok vading gei chuleh Jordan changeijin eilah peh un ahi. Tun chanma nadeileh hiche hochu neihin nungpeh tan,” ati.
And the king of the children of 'Ammon said unto the messengers of Yiphthach, Because Israel took away my land, when they came up out of Egypt, from the Arnon even unto the Yabbok, and unto the Jordan: and now restore these [lands] again in peace.
14 Jepthah in thupole ho chu Ammon lengpa komma alesol kitnin aseije,
And Yiphthach again sent messengers unto the king of the children of 'Ammon;
15 Hichehi Jepthah in aseichu ahi, “Israelten Moab ahin Ammon mite ahin agammu kalahpeh pouve,
And he said unto him, Thus hath said Yiphthach, Israel did not take away the land of Moab, nor the land of the children of 'Ammon;
16 Israel mipite Egypt a konna ahung kitoldoh uva twikhanglen san ahung galkai jou uchun Kadesh ahung lhungun,
For when they came up out of Egypt, Israel walked through the wilderness unto the Red Sea, and came to Kadesh;
17 Amahon Edom lengpa komma agamsung ahin phalpeh pouvin ahi. Hiche jouchun Moab lengpa komma hiche tobang machun agah thumkit un ahileh agamsunga hopa ding chu ahin janom dehpon ahi. Hijeh chun Israel mipite chu Kadesh a akingatauvin,
And Israel then sent messengers unto the king of Edom, saying, Let me pass, I pray thee, through thy land; but the king of Edom would not hearken; and also to the king of Moab they sent; but he would not consent: and Israel remained in Kadesh.
18 Akhonna in Edomle Moab chu apellun gamthip noija akitol tauvin ahi. Amahon Moab solam gamgi langchu ajotnun Arnon vadung pangte nia chun ngahmun asemtauvin ahi. Ahinla amahon Moab lutna dingin Arnon vadung ahin pal galkai khapon ahi, ajeh chu Ardon chu Moab gamgi ahi.
Then they wandered through the wilderness, and traveled round the land of Edom, and the land of Moab, and came from the rising of the sun to the land of Moab, and encamped on the other side of the Arnon: but they came not within the border of Moab; for the Arnon is the boundary of Moab.
19 Hiche jouchun Israelten Heshbon na um Amor mi Sihon lengpa kommah ajotnao mun athum theina dingun agamsung hopana dinga phalna thummin thupole ho asollin ahi.
And Israel sent messengers unto Sichon the king of the Emorites, the king of Cheshbon; and Israel said unto him, Let us pass, we pray thee, through thy land unto my place.
20 Ahinlah Sihon lengpan Israelten agamsungu ahopa diu anaphal pon ahi. Aman asepaite agongtoh in Jahaz munnah amaho chu ana kidoupin ahi.
But Sichon trusted not Israel to [let them] pass through his territory; and Sichon assembled all his people, and encamped in Yahaz, and fought against Israel.
21 Ahinlah Pakai Israelte Pathen chun amite chu Sihon lengpa chu anajo sah tan ahi. Hijeh chun Israelten kholang gamkaija um Amor mite gamjouse,
and the Lord the God of Israel delivered Sichon and all his people into the hand of Israel, and they smote them; and Israel took possession of all the land of the Emorites, the inhabitants of that country.
22 Arnon vadunga konna Jabbok vadung chuleh gamthip noi solanga konna Jordan changei chungah tha ananeijun ahi.
And they took possession of all the territory of the Emorites, from the Arnon even unto the Yabbok, and from the wilderness even unto the Jordan.
23 Hitichun Pakai Israel Pathen’in Amor mite gamchu alahpeh a Israelte anapeh ahin hichu keihon itidan a nangho kanungpeh kitdiu ham?
So now the Lord the God of Israel hath dispossessed the Emorites from before his people Israel, and shouldst thou possess it?
24 Hijeh chun na pathen uvin napeh uvin napeh uchu kikoi unlang keihon jong Pakai ka Pathennun eipeh u gamchu kakoiju ahibouve.
Truly! that which Kemosh thy god may give thee to possess, even that canst thou possess; but whatsoever the Lord our God hath driven out from before us, even that will we possess.
25 Nangho Moab lengpa Zippor chapa Balak sanga phajo nahiuvam? Aman Israelte chung gal anabol khah em?
And now art thou then any better than Balak the son of Zippor, the king of Moab? did he ever strive against Israel, or did he ever fight against them?
26 Israel hi hiche gammahi kum jathum hung chenga ahitan, Heshbon leh vella achenna hou Aroer leh achennao gam jouse chule Arnon vadung vella khopiho jousehi ana chenphao ahitai. Phat hitih chanpihi ipi dinga nahin nunglah louham?
[And] while Israel hath dwelt in Cheshbon and in its towns, and in 'Ar'or and in its towns, and in all the cities that are along the margins of the Arnon, three hundred years: why did ye not recover them within that time?
27 Hijeh chun keiman nang chungah suhkhel kaneipoi, nangjoh in neihung nokhum jeh ahi keichunga suhkhel naneijoh ahi, hijeh chun tunihin ichunguva vaihomma Pakaiyin Israel ham ahilouleh Ammon mite joh themmoa ham ti hinphongdoh jenghen” ati.
Whereas I myself have not sinned against thee, and thou doest me wrong to war against me: may the Lord, the Judge, decide this day between the children of Israel and the children of 'Ammon.
28 Ahinlah Ammon lengpan Jepthah thuthot chu anahsahpon ahi.
Nevertheless the king of the children of 'Ammon hearkened not unto the words of Yiphthach which he had sent to him.
29 Hiche phat chun Pakai lhagaochu Jepthah chungah ahung pansatan ahi, hichun ama Gilead gamma kon in Manasseh changei chuleh Gilead sunga Mizpah changei agachonnin Ammon mite kisatpi dingin epia aga khomtan ahi.
Then came upon Yiphthach the spirit of the Lord, and he passed through Gil'ad and Menasseh, and passed through Mitzpeh of Gil'ad, and from Mitzpeh of Gil'ad he passed over unto the children of Ammon.
30 Jepthah in Pakaijah kihahselna khat ana neijin hitin anaseijin ahi, “Pakai nangman Ammon mite chungahi galjona neipeh a ahileh,
And Yiphthach made a vow unto the Lord, and said, If thou wilt indeed deliver the children of 'Ammon into my hand,
31 Keima galjouva kakile tengleh ka insunga konna hungpot doh a eihung kimutopi masapen penchu nang komma pumgo thilto a dinga kakatdoh jengding ahi” ati.
Then shall it be, that whatsoever cometh forth out of the doors of my house to meet me, when I return in peace from the children of 'Ammon, shall belong to the Lord, and I will offer it up for a burnt-offering.
32 Hitichun Jepthah in asepaite alamkaijin Ammon mite chu akisatpin ahileh Pakaiyin galjona anapetan ahi.
So Yiphthach passed over unto the children of 'Ammon to fight against them: and the Lord delivered them into his hand.
33 Aman Ammon mite chu Aroer apat Minnith kimvella gamho geijin anajouvin khopi somni chu analaan, Abel-keramin geijin ana suchip jengin ahi. Hitihin Israelten Ammon mite chu anajouvin ahi.
And he smote them from 'Aro'er, even till thou comest to Minnith, twenty cities, and unto Abel-keramin, with a very great defeat; and the children of 'Ammon were humbled before the children of Israel.
34 Jepthah chu Mizpah ainmunna ahung kilephat chun achanu chu lamna a kimang agingthei chaokol chu kibu pummin kipah tah in apa lamto dingin ahung potdoh'in ahi. Aman chapa chanu dang aneipon amanu seh seh chu anei ahi.
And Yiphthach came to Mizpah unto his house, and, behold, his daughter came out to meet him with timbrels and with dances: and she was his sole child; he had beside her neither son nor daughter.
35 Aman achanu chu amuphatnin lungnatah in avonho abottel jengin, “Vo kachanu” atin apengjah jengin, “Nangin kalungthim nasuna lheh jengtai, nanghi ipi dinga kalungthim suna a napan hitam? Ajeh chu keiman Pakai komma kihahselna khat kahin nei ahitan, hichea konna chu kaki nunghei theilou ding ahitai,” ati.
And it came to pass, when he saw her, that he rent his garments, and said, Alas, my daughter! thou hast bent me down very low, and thou art one of those that trouble me; for I have opened my mouth unto the Lord, and I cannot go back.
36 Hichun achanun aseitai, “Hepa nangin Pakai komma kihahselna nahin nei ahitah leh nahung kihahselna bangchun kachungah tongdoh jengin, ajeh chu Pakaiyin nagalmi Ammon mite chunga galjon loupitah chu napehtah chula em!
And she said unto him, My father, if thou hast opened thy mouth unto the Lord, do to me in accordance with what hath proceeded out of thy mouth; since the Lord hath taken vengeance for thee on thy enemies, on the children of 'Ammon.
37 Ahinlah eap, thilkhat vang neibolsah ding kadeije,” Keima nungah thenga thiding kahitah jeh'in, lhani sungin kaloi kagol hotoh thinglhang gammah gavahle uvingting kakhangdonlai pulhi gadou khom uvinge” ati.
And she said unto her father, Let this thing be done for me: Let me alone two months, that I may descend to the mountains, and bewail my virginity, I with my companions.
38 Jepthah in, “Boinu gachetan” atin lhani sunga dingin asoldohtai. Hitichun ama chu aloi agol chengtoh akhangdonlai pul doukhom dingin ache tauvin ahi.
And he aid, Go. And he sent her away for two months: and she went with her companions, and bewailed her virginity on the mountains.
39 Achanu chu ainna ahung kilephatnin apan achung change ahung kihahselna bangchun aboltan ahi. Hitichun amachu nungah thengin athitan ahi. Hiche Israelte chonna khatnin ahung umdohtan ahi.
And it came to pass at the end of two months, that she returned unto her father, and he fulfilled on her his vow which he had vowed; and she knew no man; and it became a custom in Israel,
40 Israel khangdong nungah hon kumsehleh Jepthah chanu puldouna-in nili aga potdoh jiuvin ahi.
That the daughters of Israel went from year to year to lament for the daughter of Yiphthach the Gil'adite four days in the year.
