Milu Pareinae 21
1 Kanaannaw Arad siangpahrang akalae kaawm e niyah, Isarelnaw, Atharim lam koe lah a tho awh ti a thai awh toteh, Isarelnaw hah a tuk awh teh, a tangawn san lah a man awh.
And the Canaanite — king Arad — dwelling in the south, heareth that Israel hath come the way of the Atharim, and he fighteth against Israel, and taketh [some] of them captive.
2 Hottelah Isarelnaw ni BAWIPA koevah lawk a kam awh teh, hetnaw heh kaimouh kut dawk na poe pawiteh, a khopui hah peng ka raphoe thai han telah ati awh.
And Israel voweth a vow to Jehovah, and saith, 'If Thou dost certainly give this people into my hand, then I have devoted their cities;'
3 BAWIPA ni Isarelnaw e lawk a tarawi pouh teh, Kanaannaw teh a kut dawk poe lah ao. Amamouh hoi a khopuinaw hah he a raphoe teh, hote hmuen teh Hormah telah ati awh.
and Jehovah hearkeneth to the voice of Israel, and giveth up the Canaanite, and he devoteth them and their cities, and calleth the name of the place Hormah.
4 Hor mon koehoi tuipui paling koelah Edom ram lawngven lahoi a cei awh. Lam ekvoi a kâhei awh dawkvah, taminaw pueng teh a lungkuep laipalah,
And they journey from mount Hor, the way of the Red Sea, to compass the land of Edom, and the soul of the people is short in the way,
5 Cathut hoi Mosi taranlahoi kahrawngum vah due hanelah bangkongmaw Izip ram hoi na tâcokhai. Vaiyei hai awm hoeh, tui hai awm hoeh, hete vaiyei karawcap e hai ka hringnae ni a panuet toe, telah ati awh.
and the people speak against God, and against Moses, 'Why hast thou brought us up out of Egypt to die in a wilderness? for there is no bread, and there is no water, and our soul hath been weary of this light bread.'
6 Hatdawkvah, BAWIPA ni hmai tahrun a thasin teh, taminaw a khue dawkvah moikapap a due awh.
And Jehovah sendeth among the people the burning serpents, and they bite the people, and much people of Israel die;
7 Hatnavah taminaw ni Mosi koe a tho awh teh, BAWIPA hoi nang koe taranlahoi lawk ka dei e hah ka yon awh toe. Tahrunnaw hah kaimouh koehoi takhoe hanlah BAWIPA koe na kâhet pouh leih, telah atipouh.
and the people come in unto Moses and say, 'We have sinned, for we have spoken against Jehovah, and against thee; pray unto Jehovah, and He doth turn aside from us the serpent;' and Moses prayeth in behalf of the people.
8 BAWIPA ni Mosi koe hmai tahrun hah sak nah teh khom dawk hoi pathout pouh. Tahrun ni a khue e pueng ni hote hah a khet vaiteh a hring awh han telah atipouh.
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, 'Make for thee a burning [serpent], and set it on an ensign; and it hath been, every one who is bitten and hath seen it — he hath lived.
9 Hahoi Mosi ni rahum tahrun hah a sak teh, khom dawk a vo. Hahoi teh tahrun ni a khue e pueng rahum tahrun hah a khet awh teh a dam awh.
And Moses maketh a serpent of brass, and setteth it on the ensign, and it hath been, if the serpent hath bitten any man, and he hath looked expectingly unto the serpent of brass — he hath lived.
10 Isarel catounnaw teh, pou a kâtahruet awh teh, Oboth vah a roe awh.
And the sons of Israel journey, and encamp in Oboth.
11 Oboth hoi bout a cei awh teh, Kanîtholah Moab kahrawng teng Iyeabarim vah a roe awh.
And they journey from Oboth, and encamp in Ije-Abarim, in the wilderness that [is] on the front of Moab, at the rising of the sun.
12 Haw hoi a cei awh teh Zered tanghling dawk a roe awh.
From thence they have journeyed, and encamp in the valley of Zared.
13 Haw hoi bout a cei awh teh, Amornaw e ramri hoi pou kâkuen e Arnon namran lah a roe awh. Arnon teh Moab ramri, Moab hoi Amornaw rahak vah kaawm e doeh.
From thence they have journeyed, and encamp beyond Arnon, which [is] in the wilderness which is coming out of the border of the Amorite, for Arnon [is] the border of Moab, between Moab and the Amorite;
14 Hatdawkvah, BAWIPA tarantuknae cauk dawk, Suphat hoi Vaheb Arnon, Arnon sawkcanaw hoi.
therefore it is said in a book, 'The wars of Jehovah,' — 'Waheb in Suphah, And the brooks of Arnon;
15 Ar kho lahoi ka lawng e sawkcanaw hai, Moab ramri lahoi a teng poe ka lawng e telah a dei awh.
And the spring of the brooks, Which turned aside to the dwelling of Ar, And hath leaned to the border of Moab.'
16 Hahoi, Beer lah a cei awh. Haw teh BAWIPA ni Mosi koevah, taminaw pueng hah kaw nateh, tui ka poe han ati nae tuikhu koe doeh.
And from thence [they journeyed] to Beer; it [is] the well [concerning] which Jehovah said to Moses, 'Gather the people, and I give to them — water.'
17 Hahoi hete la heh Isarelnaw ni a sak awh. Oe tuiphuek tâcawt haw telah la heh a phueng awh
Then singeth Israel this song, concerning the well — they have answered to it:
18 Kahrawikungnaw a bonae tuikhu hah kâlawk kapoekung sonron hoi tai e, miphunnaw kahrawikung ni a tai e, ti hoiyah, hote kahrawng koehoi Mattanah lah a cei awh.
'A well — digged it have princes, Prepared it have nobles of the people, With the lawgiver, with their staves.' And from the wilderness [they journeyed] to Mattanah,
19 Mattanah hoi Nahaliel, Nahaliel hoi Bamoth,
and from Mattanah to Nahaliel, and from Nahaliel to Bamoth,
20 Bamoth hoi Moab ram kaawm e tanghling, Pisgah som kho ouk khetnae hmuen, hmu thainae koe a kâtahruet awh.
and from Bamoth in the valley which [is] in the field of Moab [to] the top of Pisgah, which hath looked on the front of the wilderness.
21 Isarelnaw ni Amornaw e siangpahrang Sihon koevah, na ram dawk hoi kaimouh na rakan sak haw. Na law dawk thoseh, misur takha dawk thoseh, ka cet awh mahoeh. Na tuikhu dawk e tui hai ka net awh mahoeh.
And Israel sendeth messengers unto Sihon king of the Amorite, saying,
22 Na ram ka tapoung hoeh roukrak, siangpahrang lamthungpui dawk doeh ka cet awh ti telah patounenaw a patoun.
'Let me pass through thy land, we do not turn aside into a field, or into a vineyard, we do not drink waters of a well; in the king's way we go, till that we pass over thy border.'
23 Hatei, Sihon ni a ram dawk rakan sak hane pasoung hoeh. Hottelah Sihon ni a taminaw pueng a pâkhueng teh, Isarelnaw tuk hanlah kahrawngum a kamthaw awh. Jahaz vah a pha awh teh Isarelnaw hah a tuk awh.
And Sihon hath not suffered Israel to pass through his border, and Sihon gathereth all his people, and cometh out to meet Israel into the wilderness, and cometh in to Jahaz, and fighteth against Israel.
24 Isarelnaw ni, kahran e tahloi hoi a tuk awh van teh a ram teh Arnon hoi Jabbok totouh, Ammon catounnaw ram totouh a la pouh awh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Ammonnaw e ramri teh pou a patoup awh e doeh.
And Israel smiteth him by the mouth of the sword, and possesseth his land from Arnon unto Jabbok — unto the sons of Ammon; for the border of the sons of Ammon [is] strong.
25 Isarelnaw ni khonaw pueng koung a la awh. Hottelah Isarelnaw teh, Ammonnaw e khonaw pueng dawk Heshbon hoi khotenaw pueng dawk kho a sak awh.
And Israel taketh all these cities, and Israel dwelleth in all the cities of the Amorite, in Heshbon, and in all its villages;
26 Heshbon kho teh Ammornaw e siangpahrang Sihon onae kho doeh. Ahni teh Moab siangpahrang hoi taran a kâtuk teh a kut dawk e a ram naw pueng Arnon palang kalatkung doeh.
for Heshbon is a city of Sihon king of the Amorite, and he hath fought against the former king of Moab, and taketh all his land out of his hand, unto Arnon;
27 Hatdawkvah, la ka phuengkung ni, Heshbon vah tho loe, Sihon khopui teh bout thawng awh sei, bout pathoup awh sei.
therefore those using similes say — 'Enter ye Heshbon, Let the city of Sihon be built and ready,
28 Bangkongtetpawiteh, Heshbon hoi hmai a tâco teh, Sihon khopui hoi hmai a to. Moab khopui Ar kho koung a kak. Arnon hmuenrasang bawinaw hoi,
For fire hath gone out from Heshbon, A flame from the city of Sihon, It hath consumed Ar of Moab, Owners of the high places of Arnon.
29 Oe Moab na yawthoe, nang teh na kahma toe. Khemosh taminaw, Amornaw e siangpahrang koevah, a capanaw yawngkhai hane hoi, a canunaw a san lah a poe awh.
Woe to thee, O Moab, Thou hast perished, O people of Chemosh, He hath given his sons who escape — Also his daughters — Into captivity, to a king of the Amorite — Sihon!
30 Hatei, kai ni na tâ awh toe. Heshbon teh Dibon totouh a kahma. Hottelah Nophah kho totouh a raphoe teh, hot ni teh Medeba totouh a pha.
And we shoot them, Perished hath Heshbon unto Dibon, And we make desolate unto Nophah, Which [is] unto Medeba.'
31 Hot patetlah Amornaw e ram koe Isarelnaw teh kho a sak awh.
And Israel dwelleth in the land of the Amorite,
32 Hahoi Mosi ni Jazer tuet hanlah tami a patoun. Hote kho a la teh, haw vah kaawm e Amor taminaw a pâlei awh.
and Moses sendeth to spy out Jaazer, and they capture its villages, and dispossess the Amorite who [is] there,
33 A ban awh teh, Bashan lam koe lah a takhang awh. Bashan siangpahrang Og teh ahnimouh tuk hanelah ama hoi a taminaw pueng hoi Edrei hoi tuk hanelah a kamthaw awh.
and turn and go up the way of Bashan, and Og king of Bashan cometh out to meet them, he and all his people, to battle, [at] Edrei.
34 BAWIPA ni Mosi koevah ahni teh taket hanh loe. Ama hoi a taminaw khuehoi a ram totouh na kut dawk na poe toe. Heshbon e kaawm e Amornaw e siangpahrang Sihon koevah na sak e patetlah na sak han telah atipouh.
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, 'Fear him not, for into thy hand I have given him, and all his people, and his land, and thou hast done to him as thou hast done to Sihon king of the Amorite, who is dwelling in Heshbon.'
35 Hahoi teh ama thoseh, a capanaw thoseh, buet touh boehai pâhlung laipalah a taminaw pueng hoi a thei awh teh a ram teh hmawi a tawn pouh awh.
And they smite him, and his sons, and all his people, until he hath not left to him a remnant, and they possess his land.
