Kâboutpoenae 3
1 Hatnavah kaimouh kamlang awh teh Bashan lam lah ka cei awh. Bashan siangpahrang Og hai a taminaw hoi Edrei vah kaimouh na tuk hanlah a tho awh.
“Then we turned [north] and went toward the Bashan region. Og, the king [of that area], and all his soldiers marched [south] to fight against us at Edrei [town].
2 BAWIPA Cathut ni ahni hah taket awh hanh. Ama hoi a taminaw hai thoseh, a talai hai thoseh, nangmae kut dawk na poe awh han. Heshbon khopui dawk kaawm e Amor siangpahrang Sihon koe na sak e patetlah hete Siangpahrang koehai na sak han telah kai koe a dei.
Yahweh said to me, ‘Do not be afraid of him, because I will enable your [army] to defeat [MTY] him and all his army and to capture all their land. Do to him what you did to Sihon, the king of the Amor people-group, who ruled in Heshbon [city].’
3 Hottelah maimae BAWIPA Cathut ni Bashan Siangpahrang Og hoi a taminaw pueng hah maimae kut dawk na poe vaiteh, buet touh hai hlout laipalah, ka thei awh.
“So Yahweh enabled us to defeat [IDM] King Og and all his army. We killed them all; we did not allow any of them to remain alive.
4 Hatnavah kaimouh ni khopui 60, Argob ram, Bashan ram, Og siangpahrang e uknaeram, khopui buet touh boehai hlung laipalah ka tuk awh.
There were 60 cities in that region near Argob, in King Og’s kingdom of Bashan. But we captured all of them
5 Hote khopuinaw teh, ka rasang poung e rapan, longkhanaw hoi kacakpounge khopui lah ao. Alouk lae kho moikapap hai ka la awh, ka tuk awh teh koung ka raphoe awh.
All those cities had high walls [around them] with gates and bars. We also captured many villages that did not have walls [around them].
6 Heshbon siangpahrang Sihon koe ka sak awh e patetlah napui camo pueng koung ka thei awh.
We completely destroyed everything, just as we had done [in the area that] King Sihon ruled. We killed all the men, women, and children.
7 Saringnaw hoi kho thung e hnopainaw teh kamamouh hanlah ka la awh.
But from those cities we took for ourselves all the livestock and other valuable things.
8 Hatnavah Arnon palangpui hoi kamtawng teh, Hermon mon totouh, Jordan palang namran lah kaawm e Amor siangpahrang roi e kut dawk e Arnon yawn koehoi Hermon mon totouh e ram hah kaimouh ni ka la pouh awh.
“So at that time we took from those two kings of the Amor people-group all the land east of the Jordan [River], from the Arnon [River] gorge [in the south] to Hermon Mountain [in the north].”
9 Hermon mon hah Sidonnaw ni Sirion telah thoseh, Amornaw ni Senir telah thoseh a kaw awh.
(That mountain is called Sirion by the people of Sidon [city] and is called Senir by the Amor people-group.)
10 Tanghling dawk e khopuinaw puenghoi Gilead uknaeram pueng Og siangpahrang Og khopui, Edrei khopui totouh, Bashan ram puengpa ka la pouh awh.
“We captured all the towns on the (plateau/high level land), and all the Gilead [region], and all the Bashan [region] as far east as Edrei and Salecah towns, which also belonged to Og’s kingdom.”
11 Kalenpounge miphun koehoi ka tho e Bashan siangpahrang Og ama duengdoeh ka hlout. Ayung dong 9, adangka dong 4 touh e sumikhun teh, Ammon ram Rabbah khopui vah ao nahoehmaw.
(Og was the last king who was a descendant of the Repha giants. His bed was made of iron. It was almost (14 feet/4 meters) long and (6 feet/2 meters) wide. It is still [RHQ] in Rabbah [city] in the Ammon area.)
12 Hatnavah kaimouh ni la pouh e talai hah Arnon palang teng kaawm e Aroer khopui hoi kamtawng teh, Gilead mon a tangawn totouh khopuinaw hoi Reuben miphun hoi Gad miphunnaw ka poe toe.
“From the land that we captured at that time, I allotted to the tribes of Reuben and Gad the land [north] of Aroer [town] near the Arnon [River], and some of the hilly area of the Gilead [region], along with the nearby towns.
13 Gilead mon a tangawn hoi Og siangpahrang ni a uknaeram kalenpounge hmuen telah kaw e Argob ram, Bashan ram pueng teh Manasseh miphunnaw atangawn ka poe toe.
The other part of the Gilead [region] and all of the Bashan [region], which was the Argob [region] that King Og had ruled, I allotted to half of the tribe of Manasseh.” (The entire Bashan [region] is called the land of the Repha giants.)
14 Manasseh miphun Jair ni Argob ram pueng Geshur kho Maakath kho totouh a la pouh hnukkhu, Sahnin totouh amamae a min a ceisak e lahoi Havvoth- Jair ram telah a kaw awh.
“Jair, from the tribe of Manasseh, conquered all the Bashan area as far [north] as the border of the Geshur and Maacah territories. He gave his own name to the villages there, and they are still called the villages of Jair.
15 Gilead khopui teh Makhir miphunnaw ka poe toe.
The [northern part of the] Gilead [region] I allotted to the Machir [clan, who are descendants of the tribe of Manasseh].
16 Reuben miphun, Gad miphunnaw teh, Gilead khopui hoi Arnon palangpui, alungui totouh Arnon ram khori Arabah palang pui totouh hai thoseh.
I allotted to the tribes of Reuben and Gad the southern part of the Gilead [region, extending south] to the Arnon [River]. The middle of the river is the [southern] boundary. The [northern] boundary is the Jabbok River, which is part of the border of the Ammon area.
17 Jordan palang teng Kinnereth hoi Sodom talî e kanîtholah kaawm e Arabah Pisgah khopui totouh e hai thoseh ka poe toe.
[To the west their territory extended] to the Jordan [River] Valley, from Galilee Lake [in the north] to the Dead Sea [in the south] and to the slopes of Pisgah [Mountain] to the east.
18 Hatnavah, kai ni, nangmae BAWIPA Cathut ni hete ram heh namamouh han roup na poe toe.
At that time, I told you three tribes, ‘Yahweh our God is giving you this land [east of the Jordan River], for you to occupy/capture. So now, give your soldiers weapons, and send them [across the Jordan River] ahead of the men from the other Israeli tribes [to help them to conquer/capture the land that has been allotted to them].
19 Hatnavah tarankahawi e pueng ni puengcang a kâmahrawk awh teh, na hmaunawngha Isarel miphunnaw e a hmalah a cei awh han.
But your wives and children and your very numerous cattle must stay in the towns that I have allotted to you.
20 Cathut ni nangmouh karoumcalah na o sak awh van e patetlah hmaunawnghanaw ka poe hoeh roukrak thoseh, Jordan palang namran e nangmae BAWIPA Cathut ni na poe e talai ahnimouh ni a la hoehnahlan totouh thoseh. Na yu na canaw, saringnaw ni hai kai ni na poe e khopuinaw dawk ao awh han. Nama koe saring moi ao e kai ni ka panue. Thaw ka cum torei kai ni na la poe e patetlah nangmouh pueng teh lengkaleng na coe han kamcu e talai koe lah bout na ban awh han telah nangmouh kai ni lawk na thui awh.
[Your men must help your fellow Israelis] until Yahweh enables them to live there peacefully after they capture all the land that Yahweh our God is giving to them on the west side of the Jordan [River], just like he did for you [here on the east side of the river]. After that, you all may return to this land that I have allotted to you.’
21 Hatnavah Joshua hai, na BAWIPA ni hete siangpahrang kahni touh dawk a sak e hno pueng hah nang ni khei na hmu toe. Hot patetlah BAWIPA ni na phanae kho ramnaw dawk a sak han.
And I told Joshua, ‘You [SYN] have seen everything that Yahweh our God did to those two kings, [Sihon and Og]. He will do the same thing to the people [who are now] in the land that you will be entering.
22 Nangmae Cathut ni nanfmouh koe lah kampangkhai dawkvah, ahnimanaw hah taket awh hanh.
Do not be afraid of those people, because Yahweh our God is the one who will fight for you all.’”
23 Hatnavah Cathut koe ka kâhei e teh,
“At that time, I earnestly prayed, saying
24 Oe Bawipa Jehovah, na san kai koe lentoe e hai thoseh, thaonae kut hai thoseh, sak na kamtawng toe. Nang e thaonae na kamnue sak e patetlah kalvan hoi talai dawk bang patet e cathut ni maw a sak thai han.
‘Yahweh our Lord, you have merely begun to show me that you are very great and to show me the powerful things that you can do [MTY]. There is certainly no [RHQ] god in heaven or on earth who can do the powerful things/deeds that you [have done].
25 Kai teh Jordan palang namran lah ka raka teh, kahawipoung e ram hoi Lebanon mon koehoi kamtawng teh kahawi e monnaw na hmawt sak haw telah ka kâhei nakunghai,
So please allow me to cross the Jordan [River] and to see the good/fertile land on the west side, the beautiful hilly area and [the mountains in] Lebanon.’
26 Cathut ni nangmouh kecu dawk kai koe a lungkhuek dawkvah, ka lawk hah na thai pouh hoeh. Cathut ni hai a khout toe. Hete hno hoi kâseng e lawk hah bout na dei pouh hanh lawih.
But Yahweh was angry with me because of [what] your ancestors [had made me do], so he would not pay attention to me. Instead, he said, ‘That is enough [talk from you]! Do not talk to me about that again!
27 Pisgah mon som dawkvah luen nateh, kanîtho, kanîloum, atung, aka lah kangvawi nateh ram hah khenhaw! Jordan tui rakat hanh.
Climb up to the top of Pisgah [Mountain] and look toward the west and to the east, toward the north and to the south. Look at [MTY] it all carefully, because you will not cross the Jordan [River to see the land from there].
28 Joshua hah lawk thui nateh, thapoe nateh ka bawm haw. Ahni ni hete miphun hmalah a cei vaiteh, na hmu e ram hah râw lah na pang sak han telah a ti.
But tell Joshua what he must do and encourage him to be strong, because he is the one who will lead the people [across the river in order that they can] occupy/capture the land that you will see [from the top of the mountain].’
29 Hottelah kaimouh teh Bethpeor namran lah kaawm e tanghling dawk ka o awh.
So we remained in the [Jordan River] Valley close to Beth-Peor [town].”
