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.
And the sons of Israel commit a trespass in the devoted thing, and Achan, son of Carmi, son of Zabdi, son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah, takes from the devoted thing, and the anger of YHWH burns against the sons 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 Joshua sends men from Jericho to Ai, which [is] near Beth-Aven, on the east of Bethel, and speaks to them, saying, “Go up and spy out the land”; and the men go up and spy Ai,
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 they return to Joshua, and say to him, “Do not let all the people go up; let about two thousand men, or about three thousand men, go up, and they strike Ai; do not cause all the people to labor there; for they [are] few.”
4 Hatdawkvah, tami 3,000 tabang a cei awh, hatei Ai kho e taminaw hmalah a yawng awh.
So about three thousand men of the people go up from there, and they flee before the men of Ai,
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 the men of Ai strike about thirty-six men from them, and pursue them before the gate to Shebarim, and they strike them in Morad; and the heart of the people is melted, and becomes 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.
And Joshua tears his garments, and falls on his face to the earth before the Ark of YHWH until the evening, he and [the] elderly of Israel, and they cause dust to go up on their head.
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 Joshua says, “Aah! Lord YHWH, why have You caused this people to pass over the Jordan at all, to give us into the hand of the Amorite to destroy us? And oh that we had been willing—and we dwell beyond the Jordan!
8 Oe BAWIPA, Isarel miphunnaw ni tarannaw hmalah hnuklah kamlang takhai toung dawkvah, kai ni bangtelamaw ka dei han toung.
Oh, Lord, what do I say, after that Israel has turned the neck before its 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.
And the Canaanite and all the inhabitants of the land hear, and have come around against us, and cut off our name from the earth; and what do You do for Your great Name?”
10 BAWIPA ni thaw haw, bangkong sut na tahung,
And YHWH says to Joshua, “Rise, for you—why this—[that] you [are] falling on your face?
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 has sinned, and they have also transgressed My covenant which I commanded them, and also taken of the devoted thing, and also stolen, and also deceived, and also put [it] among their vessels,
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.
and the sons of Israel have not been able to stand before their enemies; they turn the neck before their enemies, for they have become a devoted thing; I do not add to be with you—if you do not destroy the devoted thing from your midst.
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.
Rise, sanctify the people, and you have said, Sanctify yourselves for tomorrow; for thus said YHWH, God of Israel: A devoted thing [is] in your midst, O Israel, you are not able to stand before your enemies until your turning aside the devoted thing from your midst;
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 have been brought near in the morning by your tribes, and it has been [that] the tribe which YHWH captures draws near by families, and the family which YHWH captures draws near by households, and the household which YHWH captures draws near by 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 it has been, he who is captured with the devoted thing is burned with fire, he and all that he has, because he has transgressed the covenant of YHWH, and because he has done folly in Israel.”
16 Amom lah Joshua a thaw teh, Isarel miphunnaw a miphun lahoi a thokhai teh, Judah miphunnaw hah a la.
And Joshua rises early in the morning, and brings Israel near by its tribes, and the tribe of Judah is captured;
17 Judah miphunnaw a thokhai teh, Zerahnaw hah a la. Zerah imthungkhu pueng hah a thokhai teh, Zebdi imthungnaw hah a la.
and he brings the family of Judah near, and he captures the family of the Zerahite; and he brings the family of the Zerahite near by men, and Zabdi is captured;
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 he brings his household near by men, and Achan—son of Carmi, son of Zabdi, son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah—is captured.
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 Joshua says to Achan, “My son, please give glory to YHWH, God of Israel, and give thanks to Him, and now declare to me what you have done—do not hide [it] from me.”
20 Akhan ni ka payon toe. Isarel miphunnaw e BAWIPA koe ka yon toe.
And Achan answers Joshua and says, “Truly I have sinned against YHWH, God of Israel, and I have done thus and thus;
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.
and I see among the spoil a good robe of Shinar, and two hundred shekels of silver, and one wedge of gold, whose weight [is] fifty shekels, and I desire them, and take them; and behold, they [are] hid in the earth, in the midst of my tent, and the silver [is] under it.”
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,
And Joshua sends messengers, and they run to the tent, and behold, it is hidden in his tent, and the silver [is] under it;
23 rim thung e a la awh teh, Joshua koe, Isarel miphunnaw hmalah a sin awh teh, BAWIPA e hmalah a ta awh.
and they take them out of the midst of the tent, and bring them to Joshua, and to all the sons of Israel, and pour them out before YHWH.
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,
And Joshua takes Achan son of Zerah, and the silver, and the robe, and the wedge of gold, and his sons, and his daughters, and his ox, and his donkey, and his flock, and his tent, and all that he has, and all Israel with him, and they brought them up [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.
And Joshua says, “Why have you troubled us? YHWH troubles you this day!” And all Israel cast stone at him, and they burn them with fire, and they stone them with stones,
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 raise up a great heap of stones over him to this day, and YHWH turns back from the heat of His anger, therefore [one] has called the name of that place “Valley of Achor” until this day.
