Minbu 14
1 Hichun Israel mite abonchauvin aw-sang tah in akap un chu leh amaho chu jan khovah geijin akap’un hiche mipiho awgin chu lakisa’a ki thong bang in Mose leh Aaron dounan aboldoh tauvin ahi.
And the whole assembly lifted up their voice, and cried; and the people wept that night.
2 Hiche mipi awgin lakisa chu akithong jing in Mose le Aaron douna kibol ahin Egypt gamah ana thidoh kihi le pha jonte tin asam uve.
And all the children of Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron; and the whole assembly said to them, Would that we had died in the land of Egypt! or in this wilderness would that we had died!
3 Pakaiyin hilang gam lah ahi eipui doh jing’u ham gal’a thi bep dinga ka jite hou numei chapang jaona athigam bep dinga Egypt gamsunga konna nei hin puidoh u ham tin asei uve.
And why is Jehovah bringing us to this land that we may fall by the sword, that our wives and our little ones may become a prey? Is it not better for us to return to Egypt?
4 Hi chun Amaho khat le khat aki hou khom mun eihon lamkai thah lheng u hitin Egypt lamah kinung le tauhite tin akihou lim tauvin ahi.
And they said one to another, Let us make a captain, and let us return to Egypt.
5 Hichun Mose le Aaron chu Israel mite jouse masang tol lang ngan akun lha lhon tan ahi.
Then Moses and Aaron fell upon their faces before the whole congregation of the assembly of the children of Israel.
6 Pasal mini gam kholla che teni chu Nun chapa Joshua le Jephanneh chapa Caleb chun aponsil lhon abotkeh lhon tai.
And Joshua the son of Nun, and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, of them that searched out the land, rent their garments.
7 Ama nin Israel mipi teho lah’a asei lhon tan, keini’n ka khol chil lhon gam ho chu ki dang tah le loupi tah ahiye, tin asei lhon’e.
And they spoke to the whole assembly of the children of Israel, saying, The land, which we passed through to search it out, is a very, very good land.
8 Chule Pathen hi eiho dinga hiche gamsung khu eiphatsah peh uva ahi tan Pakai chun agamsunga ei pui lut diu, khoiju le bongnoi lonna gam ahiye.
If Jehovah delight in us, he will bring us into this land, and give it us, a land that flows with milk and honey;
9 Pakai chu douhih un, chule hiche gamsunga chengte jong kicha hih un. Eiho a ding in amaho khu apanpi ding umlou anchah a pang tobangbep ahiuve! Avengtup ding aneipouve, Pathen thahat chungnung aum in aman abanthahat in ei panpi jing diu ahiye.
only rebel not against Jehovah; and fear not the people of the land; for they shall be our food. Their defence is departed from them, and Jehovah is with us: fear them not.
10 Amavang Mipi jouse chu Joshua le Caleb chu songa se lih ding agong tauvin Pakai, Pathen loupina chungnung chu Israelte chunga ahung kitah lang tan houbuh thingkong chu ahung kilah tan ahi.
And the whole assembly said that they should be stoned with stones. And the glory of Jehovah appeared in the tent of meeting to all the children of Israel.
11 Chu in Pathen in Mose chu a houlimpi tan itih chan hiche Israel mite hin donlou nahsah louva eikoi diu hitam? Thet-um tah thil ki dang tampi aboldoh tauvin ahi.
And Jehovah said to Moses, How long will this people despise me? and how long will they not believe me, for all the signs which I have done among them?
12 Keiman amaho chu ka kihet mosah ding chule ka suh mang ding ahiuve. Ahinlah keiman nangma mihat tah ka so ding, Amaho sanga hat jo phajo ka so ding na hi, ati.
I will smite them with the pestilence, and destroy them, and will make of thee a nation greater and mightier than they.
13 Ahin lah Mose vang chu anom pon a lung phamo lheh in Egypt miten ipi agel diuvem hiche thil um dan ahin het teng ule Mose’n Pathen chu adong tan Egypte ahat soh hel lin nangma tha hatna Israel mite na hin pui doh’a Egypt apat na hung sohchat’u ahiye.
And Moses said to Jehovah, Then the Egyptians will hear it; for in thy might thou broughtest up this people from the midst of them;
14 Pakai, Pathen nangma tun hiche Israel mite hi na suhmang le Egypt miten agamma cheng ho lah’a alhut diu, nangma toh kimai to ahiuvin chule jan teng meikonga napui jun sun teng meilhang in na pui jiuve.
and they will tell it to the inhabitants of this land, [who] have heard that thou, Jehovah, art in the midst of this people, that thou, Jehovah, lettest thyself be seen eye to eye, and that thy cloud standeth over them, and that thou goest before them, in a pillar of cloud by day, and in a pillar of fire by night;
15 Pakai nangman amaho hi ilou theh a nasuh mang leh hiche nam mite na puidan kidang tah ana hesa nam mite chun, sei uvintin,
if thou now slayest this people as one man, then the nations that have heard thy fame will speak, saying,
16 Pakaiyin Amaho chu a suhgam na ajeh chu atep peh na’u gamsung chu apui lhung jou tahlou jeh ahi ati diu ahi.
Because Jehovah was not able to bring this people into the land that he had sworn unto them, he has therefore slain them in the wilderness.
17 Pakaiyin nangma boltheina natoh chu jom in vetsah kit in. Pakai nangma in kiphong doh kit inlang,
And now, I beseech thee, let the power of the Lord be great, according as thou hast spoken, saying,
18 Pakai, Pathen hi lung neng tah lunghang vahlou chuleh ngailutna dim jing chonset ngaidam them ahin suhkhel neite angaidam jing Pakai hi chonsetna ho ngaidam themji ahi kiti chu musah in.
Jehovah is slow to anger, and abundant in goodness, forgiving iniquity and transgression, but by no means clearing [the guilty], visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, upon the third and fourth [generation].
19 Ngaidam min hiche mite chonset nahi keima Mose ka taona nei ngai peh inlang nami hepina leh ngailutna jal’a nangman hiche mite Egypt apatna na hin ngaidam jing sa bang chun.
Pardon, I beseech thee, the iniquity of this people according to the greatness of thy loving-kindness, and as thou hast forgiven this people, from Egypt even until now.
20 Hichun Mose chu Pathen in ahin houlim pitan nangma thusei dung juiyin ka ngaidam tai, ati.
And Jehovah said, I have pardoned according to thy word.
21 Tahbeh’a kasei ahi Keima hingjing Pathen chu kahi jeh in vannoi Leiset hi ka loupina dimset jing ding ahi.
But as surely as I live, all the earth shall be filled with the glory of Jehovah!
22 Hiche Israel chate ho lah’a hi koima jong katep peh gam lhung jou talou diu ahi. Ajeh chu Amaho jousen ka loupina chu ahetsoh hel’u ahin, chule thil kidang tah melchihna Egypt gam’a jong ka bol lin chule gamthip lah’a jong ka bol lin ahin lah amahon tun avel lin ima lou tah in awgin sangtah in asam un, aki phin uvin ahi.
for all those men who have seen my glory, and my signs, which I did in Egypt and in the wilderness, and have tempted me these ten times, and have not hearkened to my voice,
23 Keiman apute apateu ka teppihna gam chu a amu lou beh diu, Amaho lah’a koi tobang eidou dal ho jouse chu imacha amu lou beh ding ahi.
shall in no wise see the land which I did swear unto their fathers: none of them that despised me shall see it.
24 Ahin lah ka lhachapa Caleb vang hi midang hotoh alungel’a kibah louna aum in Caleb hin hom tho tah’in eihou jing in hi ti ahijeh achu agam kholna muna chu ka pui lhung tei ding ahi, Caleb le achilhahte jouse hiche gam chu aboncha a alo soh hel diu ahi.
But my servant Caleb, because he hath another spirit in him, and hath followed me fully, him will I bring into the land whereinto he came; and his seed shall possess it.
25 Tun nangma ki nunghei tan, nangman Amalek teho, Canan miteho chenna lang chu na jot lou beh ding, jing teng nangma kipat doh in gamthip lam nama no ding ahi, ati.
(Now the Amalekites and the Canaanites dwell in the valley.) To-morrow turn you, and take your journey into the wilderness, on the way to the Red sea.
26 Hichun Pakaiyin Mose le Aaron henga hiti hin aseiyin ahi.
And Jehovah spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
27 Itihchan hiche migilou namho toh hin ka chenkhom’a ka umpi jing ding ham? Kipah lou lunglhai louva ka chung’a aum jing uhin ipi avetsah hi tantem, ati.
How long [shall I bear] with this evil assembly, which murmur against me? I have heard the murmurings of the children of Israel, which they murmur against me.
28 Tun amaho chu seipeh un. Keima hi Pathen ka hin ka umjing in nangma na sei doh na geldoh lou chu ka bol peh ding na hi tauve.
Say unto them, As surely as I live, saith Jehovah, if I do not do unto you as ye have spoken in mine ears!
29 Nangho gamthipma thiden ding nahi tauve, ka chunga lungkim louna na neitah jeh un kum som nia pat chunglam sen thina ato ding ahi, ati.
In this wilderness shall your carcases fall; and all that were numbered of you, according to your whole number from twenty years old and upwards, who have murmured against me,
30 Katepna gamsung na lo tahlou diu, Caleb, Jephanneth chapa chule amani Joshua, Nun chapa amani bou chun alo lhon ding ahi.
shall in no wise come into the land, concerning which I have lifted up my hand to make you dwell in it; save Caleb the son of Jephunneh, and Joshua the son of Nun.
31 Ahinlah nachate khangthah ho nanghon mi thagam ding bep a na gel hou chu keiman ka panpi ding agam leiset na deimo sau gam chu a toupha diu ahi.
But your little ones, of whom ye said they should be a prey, them will I bring in, and they shall know the land that ye have despised.
32 Amavang nangho jouse na thilong uchu hiche gamthip nelgam ahi kivui lhum ding ahi tai.
And as to you, your carcases shall fall in this wilderness.
33 Na chate ho nachilhah hou vang hikom gam thip lah’a kum somli-le-li gei kelngoi chinga pang ding ahi tauve. Hi tobang’a chu nanghon nalou chalna hou na mu diu hiche nelgam ahi na thi soh heldiu ahiye.
And your children shall wander in the wilderness forty years, and bear your whoredoms, until your carcases be wasted in the wilderness.
34 Ijeh inem itileh, na lamkai hon ni somli jen lutna gam leiset kholla cheuva ahin na chonset jeh’a kisuh genthei ding na hitai nikhat lampi chu kum somli jen na jot ding u ahi tai. Hiche teng chule nanghon Pathen toh melma a umhi itobang’a hahsa ham ti nahet doh diu ahi.
After the number of the days in which ye have searched out the land, forty days, each day for a year shall ye bear your iniquities forty years, and ye shall know mine estrangement [from you].
35 Keima Pakai, Pathen kahin na ka hin toh pan ding ahi tai hiche mipi ho lah’a eidou’a pang jing ho chu hikom nelgam ma hi suh gentheiya umdiu chule amaho chu a hinkho kicha soh hel diu ahi.
I Jehovah have spoken; I will surely do it unto all this evil assembly which have gathered together against me! in this wilderness they shall be consumed, and there they shall die.
36 Pasal som ho lah’a Mose gam velhi dinga asol ho lah’a ami khat Pathen douna ana tong gopa chu ahi.
And the men whom Moses had sent to search out the land, who returned, and made the whole assembly to murmur against him, by bringing up an evil report upon the land,
37 Pathen henga amapa chu pul in athi tai.
even those men who had brought up an evil report upon the land, died by a plague before Jehovah.
38 Gam kholchin lah’a pasal somle ni ahiuvin amaho lah achu Joshua le Caleb bou asoh cha uvin ahi.
But Joshua the son of Nun, and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, lived still of the men that had gone to search out the land.
39 Mose’n Pathen thu cheng seidoh jouse chu Israel ho lah a asei peh phat chun mipi ho chun nopma asah thei lheh jeng un ahi.
And Moses told all these sayings to all the children of Israel; then the people mourned greatly.
40 Amaho chu a Jing nikho in, jingkah matah in aki thou un mol chungvum laitah a akaldoh un, aki hou uvin, Pathen douna a chonset natoh ibol doh’u ahitai, tun vang Pakai jin ei teppeh na’u gam chu jon tauhite aki tiuve.
And they rose up early in the morning, and went up to the hill-top, saying, Here are we, and we will go up to the place of which Jehovah has spoken; for we have sinned.
41 Ahinlah Mose’n a donbut in ibola nangho Pathen thupeh palkeh dia na got uva, Gamthip gam a kile ding na kisah u baham?
And Moses said, Why now do ye transgress the commandment of Jehovah? but it shall not prosper!
42 Tun nanghon hiche gam-tep gam lam’a lut ding jong got datauvin, na melmateu khut ah gamlha bepseu un nate, Ajeh chu Pathen in na kithopi louhel diu ahitai.
Go not up, for Jehovah is not among you; that ye be not smitten before your enemies;
43 Nanghon Amalek mite le Cannan mite na ki dinte pi teng uleh amahon na tha gamhel lo diu ahi tai. Ajeh chu ama nana dalhah tah jeh uva, Pathen in nang ho jong na dalhah’u ahitai.
for the Amalekites and the Canaanites are there before you, and ye shall fall by the sword; for as ye have turned away from Jehovah, Jehovah will not be with you.
44 Hinlah mipin atum tentun uvin, Mose jong pang lou, Pakai thingkong jong jao talou hel in, aki tol uvin thinglhang lam chu ama no tauve.
Yet they presumed to go up to the hill-top; but the ark of the covenant of Jehovah, and Moses, did not depart from the midst of the camp.
45 Hichun thing lhang molchung lamma pansa ho chu Amalek mite leh Canaan miten ahin bulhu tauvin, hiti chun Hormah chan ahin del tauvin ahi.
And the Amalekites and the Canaanites who dwelt on that hill, came down and smote them, and cut them to pieces, as far as Hormah.
