< Joshua 7 >
1 Hateiteh, Judah miphun, Jerah, Zabdi, Karmi e capa Akhan ni thoebo e hno hah a la teh, hote hno dawk hoi Isarel miphunnaw ni payonnae yon lah ao dawkvah, BAWIPA teh, ahnimouh koe a lungkhuek.
But the children of Israel transgressed the commandment, and took to their own use of the anathema. For Achan the son of Charmi, the son of Zabdi, the son of Zare of the tribe of Juda, took something of the anathema: and the Lord was angry against the children of Israel.
2 Joshua ni Jeriko khopui hoi taminaw hah a patoun teh, nangmouh ni Bethel kho kanîtholah Bethaven kho teng kaawm e Ai kho cet awh nateh, hote ram hah tuet awh atipouh e patetlah ahnimouh ni a cei awh teh, Ai kho a tuet awh.
And when Josue sent men from Jericho against Hai, which is beside Bethaven, on the east side of the town of Bethel, he said to them: Go up, and view the country: and they fulfilled his command, and viewed Hai.
3 Joshua koe bout a ban awh teh, hete taminaw abuemlah cetsak hanh tami 2000 hoehpawiteh 3000 tabang cei vaiteh, Ai kho tuk awh naseh. Hote kho dawk cei hane hah, hate tami pueng patang sak hanh. Kho thung e tami pap awh hoeh atipouh.
And returning they said to him: Let not all the people go up, but let two or three thousand men go and destroy the city: why should all the people be troubled in vain against enemies that are very few?
4 Hatdawkvah, tami 3,000 tabang a cei awh, hatei Ai kho e taminaw hmalah a yawng awh.
There went up therefore three thousand fighting men: who immediately turned their backs,
5 Ai kho e taminaw ni tami 36 touh a thei awh. Kho longkha koehoi Sebarim hmuen totouh a pâlei awh. Hote hmuen koe a kum awh navah a thei awh dawkvah, tami pueng e lungthin teh, tui lah a kamyawt teh, tui patetlah ao.
And were defeated by the men of the city of Hai, and there fell of them six and thirty men: and the enemies pursued them from the gate as far as Sabarim, and they slew them as they fled by the descent: and the heart of the people was struck with fear, and melted like water.
6 Joshua ni amae khohna a phi teh, Isarel miphunnaw, kacue kanaw abuemlah a lû dawk vaiphu a kâphuen awh teh, BAWIPA e thingkong e hmalah karumsaning totouh a tabo awh.
But Josue rent his garments, and fell flat on the ground before the ark of the Lord until the evening, both he and all the ancients of Israel: and they put dust upon their heads.
7 Joshua ni, oe BAWIPA nang ni hete tami pueng heh, Amor miphunnaw e kut dawkvah na poe vaiteh, raphoe sak hanelah Jordan palang namran lah bangkongmaw na hrawi awh. Kaimanaw ni lungkuepnae lungthin ka tawn awh dawkvah, Jordan palang kanîtholah na awm sak haw.
And Josue said: Alas, O Lord God, why wouldst thou bring this people over the river Jordan, to deliver us into the hand of the Amorrhite, and to destroy us? would God, we had stayed beyond the Jordan as we began.
8 Oe BAWIPA, Isarel miphunnaw ni tarannaw hmalah hnuklah kamlang takhai toung dawkvah, kai ni bangtelamaw ka dei han toung.
My Lord God, what shall I say, seeing Israel turning their backs to their enemies?
9 Kanaan taminaw a onae ram thung taminaw ni, hote kamthang a thai awh navah, kaimanaw na ven awh vaiteh, kaimae ka min teh, talai dawk hoi na takhoe awh han toe. Nange na min lentoe nahanelah bangtelamaw na ti han toung telah atipouh awh.
The Chanaanites, and all the inhabitants of the land will hear of it, and being gathered together will surround us and cut off our name from the earth: and what wilt thou do to thy great name?
10 BAWIPA ni thaw haw, bangkong sut na tahung,
And the Lord said to Josue: Arise, why liest thou flat on the ground?
11 Isarel miphunnaw na yon awh toe. Kai ni lawk na thui awh e lawkkam hah na raphoe awh toe. Thoe ka bo e hno na paru awh teh, dumyennae na sak awh teh, namamae hno thung na hruek awh toe.
Israel hath sinned, and transgressed my covenant: and they have taken of the anathema, and have stolen and lied, and have hidden it among their goods.
12 Hottelah Isarel miphunnaw ni thoebo e tami lah na o dawkvah, na tarannaw e hmalah na kangdout thai awh hoeh. Hnuklah na kamlang takhai awh. Thoebo kawi lah kaawm hane tami hah nangmouh thung dawk hoi na takhoe hoehpawiteh kai teh nangmouh hoi rei kaawm mahoeh.
Neither can Israel stand before his enemies, but he shall flee from them: because he is defiled with the anathema. I will be no more with you, till you destroy him that is guilty of this wickedness.
13 Thaw nateh, na taminaw hah thoung sak haw. Tangtho e hnin hanlah namahoima thoung sak haw atipouh. Isarel miphunnaw e BAWIPA ni kâ na poe e teh, oe Isarel miphunnaw, thoebo e hno teh, nangmae thung vah ao. Hote hno hah nangmouh koehoi na takhoe awh hoehroukrak na tarannaw hmalah na kangdout thai awh mahoeh.
Arise, sanctify the people, and say to them: Be ye sanctified against tomorrow: for thus saith the Lord God of Israel: The anathema is in the midst of thee, O Israel: thou canst not stand before thy enemies, till he be destroyed out of thee that is defiled with this wickedness.
14 Tangtho amom miphun miphun lahoi kai koe ka hnai lah na tho awh han. BAWIPA ni a la e miphun teh, a miphun lahoi na hnai awh han. BAWIPA ni a la e imthungkhu kuep lahoi na hnai awh han. BAWIPA ni a la e imthungkhu teh, tami buetbuet touh hoi na hnai awh han.
And you shall come in the morning every one by your tribes: and what tribe soever the lot shall find, it shall come by its kindreds and the kindred by its houses, and the house by the men.
15 Thoebo e hno ka sin e teh, a la e tami hoi a tawn e hno pueng hoi hmaisawi han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, ahni ni BAWIPA e lawkkam hah a raphoe teh, Isarel miphun thung dawk kaya ka tho e hno a sak toe telah Joshua koe atipouh.
And whosoever he be that shall be found guilty of this fact, he shall be burnt with fire with all his substance, because he hath transgressed the covenant of the Lord, and hath done wickedness in Israel.
16 Amom lah Joshua a thaw teh, Isarel miphunnaw a miphun lahoi a thokhai teh, Judah miphunnaw hah a la.
Josue, therefore, when he rose in the morning, made Israel to come by their tribes, and the tribe of Juda was found,
17 Judah miphunnaw a thokhai teh, Zerahnaw hah a la. Zerah imthungkhu pueng hah a thokhai teh, Zebdi imthungnaw hah a la.
Which being brought by its families, it was found to be the family of Zare. Bringing that also by the houses, he found it to be Zabdi.
18 Hote imthung dawk hoi tami buet touh hoi a thokhai teh, Judah miphun Zerah, Zabdi, Karminaw dawk hoi ka tho e Akhan hah a la.
And bringing his house man by man, he found Achan the son of Charmi, the son of Zabdi, the son of Zare of the tribe of Juda.
19 Joshua ni ka ca Isarel miphunnaw e BAWIPA pholen nateh, a hmalah na yonnae pâpho haw. Nang ni na sakpayon e hno hah, kai koe na dei pouh haw, hrawk hanh telah Akhan hah atipouh.
And Josue said to Achan: My son, give glory to the Lord God of Israel, and confess, and tell me what thou hast done, hide it not.
20 Akhan ni ka payon toe. Isarel miphunnaw e BAWIPA koe ka yon toe.
And Achan answered Josue, and said to him: Indeed I have sinned against the Lord the God of Israel, and thus and thus have I done.
21 Kai ni ka yon e hno teh, Lawp awh e hno thung dawk a phu kaawm poung e Babilon hnicu, ngun shekel cum hni, Sui shekel 50, kai ni ka noe teh, ka kuem toe. Kama e rim thung talai dawk ka pakawp teh, ngun teh, athungpoung lah ao telah Joshua koe a dei poeh.
For I saw among the spoils a scarlet garment exceeding good, and two hundred sides of silver, and a golden rule of fifty sides: and I coveted them, and I took them away, and hid them in the ground is the midst of my tent, and the silver I covered with the earth that I dug up.
22 Hahoi Joshua e patounenaw ni rim koe lah a yawng awh teh, hote hnonaw rim thung talai dawk a pakawp e ngun hah a hmu awh toteh,
Josue therefore sent ministers: who running to his tent, found all hidden in the same place, together with the silver.
23 rim thung e a la awh teh, Joshua koe, Isarel miphunnaw hmalah a sin awh teh, BAWIPA e hmalah a ta awh.
And taking them away out of the tent, they brought them to Josue, and to all the children of Israel, and threw them down before the Lord.
24 Joshua hoi Isarel miphunnaw abuemlah ni Zerah e capa Akhan koehoi, ngun, hnicu, suitueng, a canaw, tu, maito, la, rim khuehoi a ma koe kaawm e pueng, Akhor tanghling dawk a ceikhai awh teh,
Then Josue and all Israel with him took Achan the son of Zare, and the silver and the garments, and the golden rule, his sons also and his daughters, his oxen and asses and sheep, the tent also, and all the goods: and brought them to the valley of Achor:
25 Joshua ni kaimanaw han bangkongmaw runae na poe, sahnin BAWIPA ni nang teh runae na poe van han atipouh teh, Isarel miphunnaw abuemlah ni talung hoi a dei awh. A dei awh hnukkhu hmai a sawi awh.
Where Josue said: Because thou hast troubled us, the Lord trouble thee this day. And all Israel stoned him: and all things that were his, were consumed with fire.
26 Ahni e a van vah talung a pum awh teh, sahnin totouh ao. BAWIPA e a lungkhueknae a roum. Hote hmuen teh sahnin totouh Akhor tanghling telah a phung awh.
And they gathered together upon him a great heap of stones, which remaineth until this present day. And the wrath of the Lord was turned away from them. And the name of that place was called the Valley of Achor, until this day.
