Joshua 22
1 Hahoi Joshua ni Reuben catoun, Gad catoun, Manasseh catoun tangawn hah bout a kaw teh,
Then Joshua called the Reubenites, and the Gadites, and the half-tribe of Manasseh,
2 Cathut e san Mosi a dei pouh e pueng, nangmouh ni na sak teh, kai ni ka dei e pueng lawk hai na ngâi awh toe.
and said to them, Ye have kept all that Moses the servant of Jehovah commanded you, and have hearkened to my voice in all that I commanded you.
3 Sahnin totouh atueng moikasaw na thung nangmouh ni hmaunawnghanaw na pahnawt laipalah, nangmae BAWIPA Cathut ni lawk na thui e naw pueng hah na tarawi awh toe.
Ye have not left your brothers these many days to this day, but have kept the charge of the commandment of Jehovah your God.
4 Atuteh nangmae BAWIPA Cathut ni a lawkkam e patetlah hmaunawnghanaw hah karoumcalah o thainae kâ na poe dawkvah, nangmanaw ban nateh, nama na onae im dawk, Jordan namran vah BAWIPA e san Mosi a poe e patetlah namamae talai dawk cet awh.
And now Jehovah your God has given rest to your brothers, as he spoke to them. Therefore now turn ye, and get you to your tents, to the land of your possession, which Moses the servant of Jehovah gave you beyond the Jordan.
5 Hateiteh, na hringnae buemlahoi, na lungthin buemlahoi, amae thaw tawk hane hoi, kacaklah ama kuet hane hoi kâpoelawk hringkhai hane hoi a lamthung pueng tarawi hane hoi BAWIPA Cathut lungpataw hane hoi kâpoelawk hoi kâlawk, BAWIPA e san Mosi ni kâ na poe e naw hah, sak hanelah kâhruetcuet awh telah a ti.
Only take diligent heed to do the commandment and the law which Moses the servant of Jehovah commanded you, to love Jehovah your God, and to walk in all his ways, and to keep his commandments, and to cling to him, and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul.
6 Hottelah Joshua ni yawhawi a poe teh a ceisak teh, amamae rim dawk a cei awh.
So Joshua blessed them, and sent them away, and they went to their tents.
7 Manasseh miphun tangawn hah Mosi ni Bashan ram dawk talai teh a poe toe. Hatei, miphun tangawn hah Joshua ni Jordan palang kanîloumlah, a hmaunawnghanaw hoi cungtalah talai teh a poe.
Now to the one half-tribe of Manasseh Moses had given in Bashan, but to the other half Joshua gave among their brothers beyond the Jordan westward. Moreover when Joshua sent them away to their tents, he blessed them,
8 Joshua ni nangmanaw teh hnopai moikapap na coe awh dawkvah, saringnaw, Sui, Ngun, Rahum, Sum, Hnicu naw sin awh nateh, namamouh onae im lah ban awh leih, tarannaw koe e na lawp awh teh, na hmu e hnopainaw hah na hmaunawnghanaw hoi kârei awh telah lawk a thui. Yawhawi a poe teh, amamouh onae im lah a cei sak.
and spoke to them, saying, Return with much wealth to your tents, and with very much cattle, with silver, and with gold, and with brass, and with iron, and with very much raiment. Divide the spoil of your enemies with your brothers.
9 BAWIPA ni Mosi koehoi kâ a poe e patetlah Reuben catoun, Gad catoun, Manasseh catoun tangawn ni tawn han kamcu e talai, Gilead ram dawk cei hanelah, Isarel miphun aonae koe Kanaan ram, Shiloh kho hoi a tâco awh.
And the sons of Reuben and the sons of Gad and the half-tribe of Manasseh returned, and departed from the sons of Israel out of Shiloh, which is in the land of Canaan, to go to the land of Gilead, to the land of their possession, of which they were possessed, according to the commandment of Jehovah by Moses.
10 Kanaan ram Jordan palang teng a pha torei, Reuben catoun, Gad catoun, Manasseh catoun tangawn ni, Jordan palang teng thuengnae khoungroe kalen poung a sak awh.
And when they came to the region about the Jordan that is in the land of Canaan, the sons of Reuben and the sons of Gad and the half-tribe of Manasseh built there an altar by the Jordan, a great altar to look upon.
11 Hottelah Reuben miphun, Gad miphun, Manasseh miphun tangawn ni Kanaan ram namran Jordan palang teng Isarel miphunnaw a rakanae hmuen koe thuengnae khoungroe a sak toe tie Isarelnaw ni kamthang a thai awh.
And the sons of Israel heard say, Behold, the sons of Reuben and the sons of Gad and the half-tribe of Manasseh have built an altar in the forefront of the land of Canaan, in the region about the Jordan, on the side that pertains to the sons of Israel.
12 Hote kamthang a thai awh navah, Isarel miphun tamimaya abuemlah ni tuk hanelah, Shiloh kho dawk a kamkhueng awh.
And when the sons of Israel heard of it, the whole congregation of the sons of Israel gathered themselves together at Shiloh, to go up against them to war.
13 Isarel miphunnaw ni Gilead ram Reuben catounnaw hoi Gad catounnaw hoi Manasseh catounnaw tangawn koevah, vaihma Eleazar e capa Phinehas a patoun awh.
And the sons of Israel sent Phinehas, the son of Eleazar the priest, to the sons of Reuben, and to the sons of Gad, and to the half-tribe of Manasseh, into the land of Gilead,
14 Ahni koe khobawi hra touh, Isarel miphunnaw thung dawk hoi imthung kahrawikung buetbuet touh, hotnaw teh Isarel miphunnaw thung dawk hoi imthung kaukkungnaw doeh.
and with him ten rulers, one ruler of a fathers' house for each of the tribes of Israel. And they were each man of them head of their fathers' houses among the thousands of Israel.
15 Hote kahrawikungnaw teh, Reuben catoun, Gad catoun, Manasseh catoun, tangawn ao teh Gilead ram totouh a pha awh.
And they came to the sons of Reuben, and to the sons of Gad, and to the half-tribe of Manasseh, to the land of Gilead, and they spoke with them, saying,
16 BAWIPA e tamimaya abuemlah koe lawk a thui e teh, nangmouh ni Cathut hah, na taran awh teh, thuengnae khoungroe na sak awh dawkvah, BAWIPA e hnuk na kâbang awh hoeh. Sahnin lam phen hanelah Isarelnaw e Cathut koe na yon teh bangtelae maw
Thus says the whole congregation of Jehovah, What trespass is this that ye have committed against the God of Israel, to turn away this day from following Jehovah, in that ye have built for you an altar, to rebel this day against Jehovah?
17 Nangmouh ni Cathut e hnuk na kâbang awh hoeh, na phen awh han toe ti e, Peor e yon teh maimouh hanelah khout hoeh rah maw BAWIPA e tamimaya koe runae kalen a pha eiteh, sahnin totouh hote yon hah na panuek thai awh hoeh rah.
Is the iniquity of Peor too little for us, from which we have not cleansed ourselves to this day, although there came a plague upon the congregation of Jehovah,
18 Nangmouh ni BAWIPA hah sahnin na taran teh, tangtho e hnin Isarel miphun tamimaya abuemlah koe a lungkhuek han toe.
that ye must turn away this day from following Jehovah? And it will be, seeing ye rebel today against Jehovah, that tomorrow he will be angry with the whole congregation of Israel.
19 Hatei nangmouh ni na tawn awh e talai hah thoung hoehpawiteh, BAWIPA ni a ma hanelah a la teh, lukkareiim onae talai koe lah rakat nateh kaimouh hoi cungtalah tawn e lah lat awh. Maimae BAWIPA Cathut e sathei thuengnae khoungroe laipalah, alouke sathei thuengnae khoungroe ma hanelah, sak e lahoi BAWIPA taran hanh awh. Kaimouh hai na taran hanh awh.
However, if the land of your possession is unclean, then pass ye over to the land of the possession of Jehovah, in which Jehovah's tabernacle dwells, and take possession among us, but do not rebel against Jehovah, nor rebel against us, in building for you an altar besides the altar of Jehovah our God.
20 Zerah e capa Akhan ni thoebo e hno dawk a payon teh a lungkhueknae hah Isarel miphun, rangpuinaw e a lathueng vah a pha nahoehmaw Ahni ni a payon e yon dawk, ama buet touh dueng nahoeh telah ati awh.
Did not Achan the son of Zerah commit a trespass in what was set apart, and wrath fell upon all the congregation of Israel? And that man did not perish alone in his iniquity.
21 Hahoi teh, Reuben catoun, Gad catoun, Manasseh catoun tangawn ni Isarel miphun dawk tami thawng touh ka uk e kacuenaw koevah bout a dei pouh e teh,
Then the sons of Reuben and the sons of Gad and the half-tribe of Manasseh answered, and spoke to the heads of the thousands of Israel,
22 Cathutnaw e Cathut, cathutnaw e BAWIPA Cathut, Jehovah ni a panue, Isarel ni hai panuek naseh. BAWIPA koe taranthaw hanelah a kâcai awh teh, a hnukkâbang laipalah phen hanelah kaimanaw ni khoungroe ka sak awh katang pawiteh, sahnin pâhlung awh hanh lawih.
The Mighty One, God, Jehovah, the Mighty One, God, Jehovah, he knows, and Israel he shall know, if it is in rebellion, or if in trespass against Jehovah (do not save us this day),
23 Hote thuengnae khoungroe van hmaisawi thuengnae sathei, tavai thuengnae, roum thuengnae, thueng hanelah kâcainae kaawm nakunghai BAWIPA ma roeroe ni pâphue lawiseh.
that we have built us an altar to turn away from following Jehovah, or if to offer burnt offering or meal offering on it, or if to offer sacrifices of peace offerings on it, let Jehovah himself require it,
24 Hmalae tueng dawk nangmae catounnaw ni, Oe Reuben catounnaw, Gad catounnaw nangmouh teh, Isarel miphunnaw e Cathut hoi bangtelamaw na kâkuet awh.
and if we have not rather out of carefulness done this, from purpose, saying, In time to come your sons might speak to our sons, saying, What have ye to do with Jehovah, the God of Israel?
25 BAWIPA ni kaimouh hoi nangmae rahak dawk kâkapeknae Jordan palang teh a ta toe. Nangmouh ni BAWIPA hoi khoeroe na kâkuen hoeh telah kaimae ca catounnaw koe na dei awh dawkvah, kaimae ca catounnaw ni BAWIPA taket laipalah khosak hanelah nangmae ca catounnaw ni sak awh langvaih tie hah puen hanelah ao dawkvah, hete hno teh ka sak awh toe nahoehmaw.
For Jehovah has made the Jordan a border between us and you, ye sons of Reuben and sons of Gad. Ye have no portion in Jehovah. So your sons might make our sons cease from fearing Jehovah.
26 Hatdawkvah maimouh ni sathei thuengnae khoungroe hah sak hanelah pathoup leih sei ati awh navah, hmaisawi thuengnae sathei hoi thueng hane na kâcai awh hoeh.
Therefore we said, Let us now prepare to build us an altar, not for burnt offering, nor for sacrifice,
27 Maimouh ni hmaisawi thuengnae sathei pueng hoi sathei e phung, roum thuengnae sathei aphunphun sak awh teh, BAWIPA e thaw hah a hmalah tawk hanelah, hmalae tueng dawk nangmae catounnaw ni nangmouh teh BAWIPA hoi khoeroe na kâkuen awh hoeh, telah maimae catounnaw koe a dei awh hoeh nahanelah, hete thuengnae khoungroe teh, kaimouh hoi nangmae rahak, kaimae ca catounnaw hoi nangmae ca catounnaw rahak kapanuekkhaikung lah ao nahanelah sak awh toe.
but it shall be a witness between us and you, and between our generations after us, that we may do the service of Jehovah before him with our burnt offerings, and with our sacrifices, and with our peace offerings, that your sons may not say to our sons in time to come, Ye have no portion in Jehovah.
28 Hmalae tueng dawk ahnimouh ni maimouh hoi maimae ca catounnaw koe hottelah dei pawiteh, maimouh ni maimae napanaw ni, hmaisawi thuengnae sathei thueng hanelah nahoeh. Maimouh hoi nangmae rahak dawk kapanuekkhaikung lah ao nahane, sak e BAWIPA e khoungroe hah khenhaw! telah bout dei thai nahanlah ka kâpan awh toe.
Therefore we said, It shall be, when they so say to us or to our generations in time to come, that we shall say, Behold the pattern of the altar of Jehovah, which our fathers made, not for burnt offering, nor for sacrifice, but it is a witness between us and you.
29 Lukkarei im hmalah kaawm e maimae Cathut e sathei thuengnae khoungroe laipalah, alouke sathei thuengnae khoungroe sak pawiteh, hmaisawi thuengnae sathei pueng hoi, sathei phun, tavai thuengnae thueng awh teh, hnukkâbang laipalah tarannae yon teh kaimouh hoi kâhlat lawiseh telah bout a dei awh.
Far be it from us that we should rebel against Jehovah, and turn away this day from following Jehovah, to build an altar for burnt offering, for meal offering, or for sacrifice, besides the altar of Jehovah our God that is before his tabernacle.
30 Vaihma Phinehas hoi tamimaya kahrawikungnaw, Isarel miphun dawk hoi tami 1,000 touh ka uk e kacuenaw ni, Reuben catoun, Gad catoun, Manasseh catounnaw ni a dei awh e lawk hah a thai awh torei teh a lung a kuep awh.
And when Phinehas the priest, and the rulers of the congregation, even the heads of the thousands of Israel that were with him, heard the words that the sons of Reuben and the sons of Gad and the sons of Manasseh spoke, it pleased them well.
31 Vaihma Eleazar e capa Phinehas ni hai nangmouh teh, BAWIPA koe na yon awh hoeh dawkvah, Bawipa ni kaimouh koe na okhainae hah sahnin maimouh ni panue awh toe. Nangmouh ni Isarel miphunnaw hah, Cathut e kut dawk hoi atuvah na hlout sak awh toe telah, Reuben catoun, Gad catoun, Manasseh catounnaw koe a dei pouh awh.
And Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest said to the sons of Reuben, and to the sons of Gad, and to the sons of Manasseh, This day we know that Jehovah is in the midst of us, because ye have not committed this trespass against Jehovah. Now ye have delivered the sons of Israel out of the hand of Jehovah.
32 Hahoi vaihma Eleazar e capa Phinehas hoi kahrawikungnaw ni Reuben catoun, Gad catounnaw a onae, Gilead ram hoi Isarelnaw a onae Kanaan ram lah bout a tho teh kamthang a thaisak awh.
And Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest, and the rulers, returned from the sons of Reuben, and from the sons of Gad, out of the land of Gilead, to the land of Canaan, to the sons of Israel, and brought them word again.
33 Isarel miphunnaw ni lunghawinae a tawn teh Cathut e pahrennae hah a pholen awh. Hathnukkhu hoi Reuben catoun, Gad catounnaw a onae ram hah thei hane, tuk hanelah noenae awm hoeh toe.
And the thing pleased the sons of Israel. And the sons of Israel blessed God, and spoke no more of going up against them to war, to destroy the land in which the sons of Reuben and the sons of Gad dwelt.
34 Reuben catoun, Gad catounnaw ni hai BAWIPA teh Cathut la ao tie hah, hete sathei thuengnae khoungroe teh, kaimae rahak dawkvah kapanuekkhaikung lah awm seh telah a titeh, hote khoungroe teh, Ed telah a min a phung awh.
And the sons of Reuben and the sons of Gad called the altar Witness. For, they said, it is a witness between us that Jehovah is God.
