< Joshua 6 >

1 Isarel miphunnaw kecu dawk Jeriko khopui teh khik a kâkhan awh teh, ka tâcawt e, ka kâen e, buet touh hai awm hoeh.
And Jericho shuts itself up, and is shut up, because of the presence of the sons of Israel—none going out, and none coming in.
2 Hat toteh, BAWIPA Cathut ni khenhaw! Jeriko khopui, Jeriko siangpahrang hoi athakaawme ransa pueng teh nange kut dawk na poe toe.
And YHWH says to Joshua, “See, I have given Jericho and its king into your hand—mighty men of valor,
3 Hatdawkvah khopui teh, na lawngven awh han Isarel ransanaw abuemlah ni hnin taruk touh thung na lawngven awh han.
and you have surrounded the city—all the men of battle—going around the city once; thus you do [for] six days;
4 Vaihma sari touh ni thingkong hmalah Jubili mongka sari touh a sin awh han. Hnin sari hnin nah vai sari touh khopui lawngven vaiteh, vaihmanaw ni mongka teh a ueng awh han.
and seven priests carry seven horns of the rams before the Ark, and on the seventh day you go around the city seven times, and the priests blow with the horns,
5 Jubili mongka a rui kasawlah a ueng awh vaiteh, mongka lawk na thai awh torei tami pueng ni kacaipounglah a hram awh han. Khopui e rapan teh abuemlah koung a tip han. Hahoi taminaw ni kalancalah na kamyun awh han telah Joshua koe atipouh.
and it has been, in the prolonging of the horn of the ram, in your hearing the voice of the horn, all the people shout [with] a great shout, and the wall of the city has fallen under it, and the people have gone up, each straight before him.”
6 Nun e capa Joshua ni vaihmanaw a kaw teh, nangmouh ni lawkkam thingkong hah na kâkayawt awh vaiteh, BAWIPA e thingkong hmalah vaihma sari touh ni Jubili mongka sari touh e hah na sin awh han.
And Joshua son of Nun calls to the priests and says to them, “Carry the Ark of the Covenant, and seven priests carry seven horns of the rams before the Ark of YHWH”;
7 Taminaw koehoi, nangmouh ni na cei awh vaiteh, khopui hah lawngven awh. Senehmaica kapatuemnaw ni BAWIPA e thingkong hmalah cet awh telah atipouh.
and He said to the people, “Pass over, and go around the city, and he who is armed passes over before the Ark of YHWH.”
8 Joshua ni taminaw koe lawk a thui hnukkhu, Jubili mongka sari touh ka sin e vaihma sari touh ni BAWIPA e hmalah mongka ueng na laihoi a cei awh. BAWIPA e lawkkam thingkong teh, ahnimae hnukkhu lah a kâbang awh.
And it comes to pass, when Joshua speaks to the people, that the seven priests carrying seven horns of the rams before YHWH have passed over and blown with the horns, and the Ark of the Covenant of YHWH is going after them;
9 Mongka ka ueng e vaihmanaw hmalah, Senehmaica kapatuemnaw ni a cei awh teh, vaihmanaw ni mongka ueng na laihoi a cei awh navah, hnuk lae ransanaw ni thingkong hnuklah a kâbang awh.
and he who is armed is going before the priests blowing the horns, and he who is gathering up is going after the Ark, going on and blowing with the horns;
10 Joshua ni nangmouh teh, kai ni hram hanelah lawk na thui e hnin a pha hoehnahlan, na hram awh mahoeh. A pawlawk buet touh hai na tho sak awh mahoeh. Lawkkam touh hai na tho awh mahoeh. Hote a hnin a pha torei na hram awh han telah lawk na thui awh toe.
and Joshua has commanded the people, saying, “Do not shout, nor cause your voice to be heard, nor does a word go out from your mouth, until the day of my saying to you, Shout! Then you have shouted.”
11 Hottelah BAWIPA Cathut e thingkong teh khopui vai touh a lawngven awh hnukkhu hoi rim thung bout a ban awh teh, rum touh a loum sak awh.
And the Ark of YHWH goes around the city, going around once, and they come into the camp, and lodge in the camp.
12 Amom Joshua ni a thaw teh, vaihmanaw ni BAWIPA e thingkong hah a hrawm sak.
And Joshua rises early in the morning, and the priests carry the Ark of YHWH,
13 BAWIPA e thingkong hmalah Jubili mongka sari touh ka sin e vaihmanaw sari touh ni pou a cei awh na laihoi mongka a ueng awh. Senehmaica kapatuemnaw ni ahnimae hmalah a cei awh teh, vaihmanaw ni mongka ueng na laihoi a cei awh nah vah, hnuk lae ransanaw teh, BAWIPA e thingkong hnukkhu lah a kâbang awh.
and seven priests carrying seven horns of the rams before the Ark of YHWH are walking, going on, and they have blown with the horns—and he who is armed is going before them, and he who is gathering up is going behind the Ark of YHWH—going on and blowing with the horns.
14 A pahni hnin khopui vai touh a lawngven awh hoi rim koe lah bout a ban awh. Hottelah hnin taruk thung a sak awh.
And they go around the city once on the second day, and return to the camp; thus they have done [for] six days.
15 Asari hnin amom khodai tahma vah, a thaw awh teh, ahmoun e patetlah vai sari totouh khopui hah a lawngven awh. Hot hnin teh vai sari touh khopui a lawngven awh.
And it comes to pass, on the seventh day, that they rise early, at the ascending of the dawn, and go around the city, according to this manner, seven times; (only on that day have they gone around the city seven times);
16 Apa sari hnin teh, vaihmanaw ni mongka a ueng torei teh, Joshua ni hram awh leih, BAWIPA ni khopui nangmouh koe na poe awh han toe.
and it comes to pass, at the seventh time, the priests have blown with the horns, and Joshua says to the people, “Shout! For YHWH has given the city to you;
17 Khopui hoi khopui thung kaawm e pueng abuemlah thoebo vaiteh BAWIPA koe poe han toe. Hateiteh tak kâyawt e Rahab teh maimouh ni patoun awh e patounenaw hah a hro dawkvah, ahni hoi a imthungkhu abuemlah a hringnae na hlout sak awh han.
and the city has been devoted, it and all that [is] in it, to YHWH; only Rahab the harlot lives, she and all who [are] with her in the house, for she hid the messengers whom we sent;
18 Nangmouh ni thoebo e hnonaw hah kâhruetcuet laihoi roun awh. Hote hnonaw hah na lat awh pawiteh, nangmouh dawk hai, Isarel ransa dawk hai, thoebo e lah awm vaiteh a rucatnae na poe vaih tie lakueng hanelah ao.
and surely you have kept from the devoted thing, lest you devote [yourselves], and have taken from the devoted thing, and have made the camp of Israel become a devoted thing, and have troubled it;
19 Sui, Ngun, hoi rahum, sumpai abuemlah BAWIPA hanelah thoung sak awh nateh, BAWIPA e hnopai thung vah na hruek awh han telah a taminaw koe Joshua ni atipouh.
and all the silver and gold, and vessels of bronze and iron—it [is] holy to YHWH; it comes into the treasury of YHWH.”
20 Hot patetvanlah mongka a ueng awh teh, taminaw ni a hram awh. Mongka lawk a thai awh nah kacaipounglah a hram awh torei teh, khopui kalupnae rapan teh, koung a tip, khopui thung a kâen sin awh teh, khopui teh a la awh.
And the people shout, and blow with the horns, and it comes to pass, when the people hear the voice of the horn, that the people shout [with] a great shout, and the wall falls under it, and the people goes up into the city, each straight before him, and they capture the city;
21 Khopui thung kaawm e tongpa, napui, kacue, kanaw, Tu, Maito, La kaawm e pueng tahloi hoi koung a tâtueng awh.
and they devote all that [is] in the city, from man even to woman, from young even to aged, even to ox, and sheep, and donkey, by the mouth of the sword.
22 Hote ram ka tuet e tami roi koe, Joshua ni nangmouh roi ni thoe na bo e patetlah kâyawt e napui im dawk cet nateh, ahni khuehoi ahni koe kaawm e abuemlah tâcawtkhai awh, atipouh.
And Joshua said to the two men who are spying out the land, “Go into the house of the woman, the harlot, and bring out the woman from there, and all whom she has, as you have sworn to her.”
23 Hatdawkvah, ka tuet roi e ni a kâen roi teh, Rahab hoi a manu, a napa, a thangroi naw, ahni koe kaawm e abuemlah hoi amae a hmaunawngha pueng hai a tâco sak teh, Isarelnaw e rim alawilah ao sak.
And the young men, those spying, go in and bring out Rahab, and her father, and her mother, and her brothers, and all whom she has; indeed, they have brought out all her relatives, and place them at the outside of the camp of Israel.
24 Khopui khuehoi khopui thung kaawm e abuemlah hmai a sawi awh. Hateiteh, Sui, Ngun, hoi rahum e hno, sumpainaw hai, BAWIPA e hno kuemnae dawk a hruek awh.
And they have burned the city with fire, and all that [is] in it; only, the silver and the gold, and the vessels of bronze, and of iron, they have given [to] the treasury of the house of YHWH;
25 Joshua ni tak kâyawt e Rahab hoi amae phun, Ama koe kaawm e abuemlah hring hloutnae a poe teh, ahni teh Isarel miphun dawkvah sahnin totouh ao. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Jeriko khopui ka tuet hane Joshua e patounenaw hah a hro dawk doeh.
and Rahab the harlot, and the house of her father, and all whom she has, Joshua has kept alive; and she dwells in the midst of Israel to this day, for she hid the messengers whom Joshua sent to spy out Jericho.
26 Hahoi Joshua ni apihai yah Jeriko khopui bout kangdout sak e teh, BAWIPA hmalah, thoebo e tami lah awm seh. Camin se nah adu a ung vaiteh, cahnoung se nah kho longkhanaw hah sak naseh, telah thoe a bo.
And Joshua adjures [them] at that time, saying, “Cursed [is] the man before YHWH who raises up and has built this city, [even] Jericho; he lays its foundation in his firstborn, and he sets up its doors in his youngest.”
27 Hottelah BAWIPA ni Joshua hoi rei ao teh, ahnie min teh ram pueng dawk a kamthang.
And YHWH is with Joshua, and his fame is in all the land.
