Joshua 22
1 Hahoi Joshua ni Reuben catoun, Gad catoun, Manasseh catoun tangawn hah bout a kaw teh,
Then Joshua called together the sons of Ruben, and the sons of Gad, and the half tribe of Manasse,
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 heard all that Moses the servant of the Lord commanded you, and ye have hearkened to my voice in all that he 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 deserted your brethren these many days: until this day ye have kept the commandment of the Lord 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 the Lord our God has given our brethren rest, as he told them: now then return and depart to your homes, and to the land of your possession, which Moses gave you on the other side 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.
But take great heed to do the commands and the law, which Moses the servant of the Lord commanded you to do; to love the Lord our God, to walk in all his ways, to keep his commands, and to cleave to him, and serve him with all your mind, and with all your soul.
6 Hottelah Joshua ni yawhawi a poe teh a ceisak teh, amamae rim dawk a cei awh.
And Joshua blessed them, and dismissed them; and they went to their homes.
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.
And to [one] half the tribe of Manasse Moses gave a portion in the land of Basan, and to [the other] half Joshua gave a portion with his brethren on the other side of Jordan westward: and when Joshua sent them away to their homes, then 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 they departed with much wealth to their houses, and they divided the spoil of their enemies with their brethren; very much cattle, and silver, and gold, and iron, and much raiment.
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.
So the sons of Ruben, and the sons of Gad, and the half tribe of Manasse, departed from the children of Israel in Selo in the land of Chanaan, to go away into Galaad, into the land of their possession, which they inherited by the command of the Lord, by the hand of 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 they came to Galaad of Jordan, which is in the land of Chanaan: and the children of Ruben, and the children of Gad, and the half tribe of Manasse built there an altar by Jordan, a great altar to look at.
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 children of Israel heard say, Behold, the sons of Ruben, and the sons of Gad, and the half tribe of Manasse have built an altar at the borders of the land of Chanaan at Galaad of Jordan, on the opposite side to the children of Israel.
12 Hote kamthang a thai awh navah, Isarel miphun tamimaya abuemlah ni tuk hanelah, Shiloh kho dawk a kamkhueng awh.
And all the children of Israel gathered together to Selo, so as to go up and fight against them.
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 children of Israel sent to the sons of Ruben, and the sons of Gad, and to the sons of the half tribe of Manasse into the land of Galaad, both Phinees the son of Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest,
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 ten of the chiefs with him; [there was] one chief of every household out of all the tribes of Israel; (the heads of families are the captains of thousands in 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 Ruben, and to the sons of Gad, and to the half tribe of Manasse into the land of Galaad; and they spoke to 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 the Lord, What [is] this transgression that ye have transgressed before the God of Israel, to turn away today from the Lord, in that ye have built for yourselves an altar, so that ye should be apostates from the Lord?
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 sin of Phogor too little for you, whereas we have not been cleansed from it until this day, though there was a plague among the congregation of the Lord?
18 Nangmouh ni BAWIPA hah sahnin na taran teh, tangtho e hnin Isarel miphun tamimaya abuemlah koe a lungkhuek han toe.
And ye have this day revolted from the Lord; and it shall come to pass if ye revolt this day from the Lord, that to-morrow there shall be wrath upon all 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.
And now if the land of your possession [be too] little, cross over to the land of the possession of the Lord, where the tabernacle of the Lord dwells, and receive ye an inheritance among us; and do not become apostates from God, neither do ye apostatize from the Lord, because of your having built an altar apart from the altar of the Lord 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.
Lo! did not Achar the [son] of Zara commit a trespass [taking] of the accursed thing, and there was wrath on the whole congregation of Israel? and he himself died alone in his own sin.
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,
And the sons of Ruben, and the sons of Gad, and the half tribe of Manasse answered, and spoke to the captains of the thousands of Israel, saying,
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.
God [even] God is the Lord, and God [even] God himself knows, and Israel he shall know; if we have transgressed before the Lord by apostasy, let him not deliver 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.
And if we have built to ourselves an altar, so as to apostatize from the Lord our God, so as to offer upon it a sacrifice of whole-burnt-offerings, so as to offer upon it a sacrifice of peace-offering, —the Lord shall 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.
But we have done this for the sake of precaution [concerning this] thing, saying, Lest hereafter your sons should say to our sons, What have ye to do with the Lord 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.
Whereas the Lord has set boundaries between us and you, even Jordan, and ye have no portion in the Lord: so your sons shall alienate our sons, that they should not worship the Lord.
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.
And we gave orders to do thus, to build this altar, not for burnt-offerings, nor for meat-offerings;
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 that this may be a witness between you and us, and between our posterity after us, that we may do service to the Lord before him, with our burnt-offerings and our meat-offerings and our peace-offerings: so your sons shall not say to our sons, hereafter, Ye have no portion in the Lord.
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.
And we said, If ever it should come to pass that they should speak [so] to us, or to our posterity hereafter; then shall they say, Behold the likeness of the altar of the Lord, which our fathers made, not for the sake of burnt-offerings, nor for the sake of meat-offerings, but it is a witness between you and us, and between our sons.
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 therefore that we should turn away from the Lord this day so as to apostatize from the Lord, so as that we should build an altar for burnt-offerings, and for peace-offerings, besides the altar of the Lord which 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 Phinees the priest and all the chiefs of the congregation of Israel who were with him heard the words which the children of Ruben, and the children of Gad, and the half tribe of Manasse spoke; and it pleased them.
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 Phinees the priest said to the sons of Ruben, and to the sons of Gad, and to the half of the tribe of Manasse, To-day we know that the Lord [is] with us, because ye have not trespassed grievously against the Lord, and because ye have delivered the children of Israel out of the hand of the Lord.
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.
So Phinees the priest and the princes departed from the children of Ruben, and from the children of Gad, and from the half tribe of Manasse out of Galaad into the land of Chanaan to the children of Israel; and reported the words to them.
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 it pleased the children of Israel; and they spoke to the children of Israel, and blessed the God of the children of Israel, and told them to go up no more to war against the others to destroy the land of the children of Ruben, and the children of Gad, and the half tribe of Manasse: so they dwelt upon it.
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 Joshua gave a name to the altar of the children of Ruben, and the children of Gad, and the half tribe of Manasse; and said, It is a testimony in the midst of them, that the Lord is their God.
