Joshua 5

1 BAWIPA ni Isarel miphunnaw raka sak hanelah, Jordan palang a hak sak tie hah, Jordan palang kanîloumlah kaawm e Amor siangpahrang abuemlah, tuipui teng kaawm e Kanaan siangpahrang abuemlah ni a thai awh torei teh, a taranhawinae awm awh hoeh. Isarel miphunnaw kecu dawk a lung koung apout awh.

Now when all the kings of the Amorrhites, who dwelt beyond the Jordan westward, and all the kings of Chanaan, who possessed the places near the great sea, had heard that the Lord had dried up the waters of the Jordan before the children of Israel, till they passed over, their heart failed them, and there remained no spirit in them, fearing the coming in of the children of Israel.

2 Hahoi Cathut ni Joshua a kaw teh, lungtaw ramanaw sak nateh, Isarel miphunnaw vuensom bout na a pouk han atipouh.

At that time the Lord said to Josue: Make thee knives of stone, and circumcise the second time the children of Israel.

3 Hatdawkvah, Joshua ni lungtaw ramanaw a sak teh, Gilgal e hmuen koe Isarel miphunnaw e vuensom a a pouh.

He did what the Lord had commanded, and he circumcised the children of Israel in the hill of the foreskins.

4 Hottelah vuensom a a pouh ngainae teh Izip ram hoi ka tâcawt e ransa tongpa pueng kahrawngum koung a due awh dawk doeh.

Now this is the cause of the second circumcision: All the people that came out of Egypt that were males, all the men fit for war, died in the desert, during the time of the long going about in the way.

5 Hote ram dawk hoi ka tâcawt e pueng teh vuensoma e lah ao awh toe. Kahrawngum a cei awh nah ka khe e pueng teh vuensoma e lah awm hoeh rah.

Now these were all circumcised. But the people that were born in the desert,

6 Izip ram hoi ka tâcawt e taran ka tuk thai e pueng teh Cathut e lawk a ngâi hoeh dawkvah be a due totouh Isarel miphunnaw kum 40 touh thung kahrawngum a kâhei awh. Cathut ni, na poe han ti teh na mintoenaw koe ka kam pouh e ram, sanutui hoi khoitui ka lawng e ram hah, hotnaw ni hmawt awh mahoeh ti teh thoe a bo.

Luring the forty years of the journey in the wide wilderness, were uncircumcised: till all they were consumed that had not heard the voice of the Lord, and to whom he had sworn before, that he would not shew them the land flowing with milk and honey.

7 Ahnimae yueng lah a canaw ni lam vah, vuensom a a awh e a hmu hoeh rah dawkvah, Joshua ni vuensom bout a a pouh.

The children of these succeeded in the place of their fathers, and were circumcised by Josue: for they were uncircumcised even as they were born, and no one had circumcised them in the way.

8 Taminaw pueng vuensom a a hnukkhu hoi, a hmâ hawihoeh roukrak rim dawk ao awh.

Now after they were all circumcised, they remained in the same place of the camp, until they were healed.

9 Cathut ni Izip ram e dudamnae nangmouh koehoi sahnin kai ni koung ka takhoe toe, telah Joshua koe atipouh. Hatdawkvah, hote hmuen teh sahnin totouh Gilgal telah ati awh.

And the Lord said to Josue: This day have I taken away from you the reproach of Egypt. And the name of that place was called Galgal, until this present day.

10 Isarel miphunnaw teh Gilgal hmuen koevah rim a sak awh teh, hote thapa hnin hrahlaipali hnin tangmin Jeriko tanghling dawkvah ceitakhai pawi a sak awh.

And the children of Israel abode in Galgal, and they kept the phase on the fourteenth day of the month, at evening, in the plains of Jericho:

11 Ceitakhai pawi a sak awh hnukkhu, a tangtho hnin vah Kanaan kho e cakang hoi a sak awh e tawn thum hoeh e vaiyeinaw hoi capanaw hnin touh thung a ca awh.

And they ate on the next day unleavened bread of the corn of the land, and frumenty of the same year.

12 Kanaan kho hoi ka tâcawt e a ca awh teh, a tangtho hoi teh mana teh apout toe. Hatnae kum dawk hoi Kanaan ram hoi ka tâcawt e a paw hah a ca awh.

And the manna ceased after they ate of the corn of the land, neither did the children of Israel use that food any more, but they ate of the corn of the present year of the land of Chanaan.

13 Joshua ni Jeriko kho teng aonae koehoi a khet nah tami buet touh ni tahloi a tabu dawk hoi a rasa teh, ka kangdout e a hmu navah, ahni koe lah a cei teh, nang hah kaimouh koe lah kampang e maw, kaimae taran lah kaawm e maw telah a pacei.

And when Josue was in the field of the city of Jericho, he lifted up his eyes, and saw a man standing over against him: holding a drawn sword, and he went to him, and said: Art thou one of ours, or of our adversaries?

14 Hatnavah, ahni ni telah nahoeh, BAWIPA Cathut e ransahu ka hrawi e lah kai teh atu nang koe ka tho e doeh atipouh. Joshua ni talai dawk a tabo teh, a bawk. BAWIPA, na san koe bangmaw na dei han telah a pacei.

And he answered: No: but I am prince of the host of the Lord, and now I am come. Josue fell on his face to the ground. And worshipping, add: What saith my lord to his servant?

15 BAWIPA e ransabawi ni na khokkhawm hah rading, nang ni na coungroe e hmuen teh kathounge doeh atipouh e patetlah Joshua ni a sak.

Loose, saith he, thy shoes from off thy feet: for the place whereon thou standest is holy. And Josue did as was commanded him.
