Joshua 4
1 And it came to pass, when all the nation were clean passed over the Jordan, that Jehovah spoke to Joshua, saying,
Taminaw abuemlah ni Jordan tuipui a raka awh hnukkhu hoi BAWIPA ni,
2 Take for you twelve men out of the people, a man out of every tribe,
miphun buet touh dawk tami buet touh, tami hrahlaikahni touh rawi awh.
3 and command ye them, saying, Take for you here out of the midst of the Jordan, out of the place where the priests' feet stood firm, twelve stones, and carry them over with you, and lay them down in the lodging-place where ye shall lodge this night.
Ahnimanaw ni, tuipui lungui vaihmanaw ni kacaklah a kangduenae hmuen koe e talung hrahlaikahni touh a la awh vaiteh, hatnae tangmin a roe awh nahane rim koe na hruek awh han telah Joshua koe atipouh.
4 Then Joshua called the twelve men, whom he had prepared of the sons of Israel, a man out of every tribe.
Joshua ni miphun buet touh dawk tami buet touh a rawi e hrahlaikahni touh hah a kaw teh,
5 And Joshua said to them, Pass over before the ark of Jehovah your God into the midst of the Jordan, and take ye up every man of you a stone upon his shoulder, according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Israel,
Nangmae BAWIPA Cathut e thingkong hmalah Jordan tuipui lungui rakat awh nateh, Isarel miphun milu pha e yit touh tami buet touh ni talung buet touh lat awh nateh, hrawm awh.
6 that this may be a sign among you, that, when your children ask in time to come, saying, What do ye mean by these stones?
Telah na sak pawiteh ka panuek khai e ao han toe. Hmalae atueng nah nangmae na canaw ni vah, hete talungnaw hah bangtelae maw tet awh boipawiteh,
7 Then ye shall say to them, Because the waters of the Jordan were cut off before the ark of the covenant of Jehovah. When it passed over the Jordan, the waters of the Jordan were cut off. And these stones shall be for a memorial to the sons of Israel forever.
nangmouh ni, BAWIPA e thingkong ni Jordan tui a raka navah, thingkong e hmalah Jordan tui thouk a pet telah na dei pouh awh han. Hote talungnaw teh pout laipalah, Isarel miphunnaw ni pahnim thai hoeh nahanelah Joshua koe lawk a thui.
8 And the sons of Israel did so as Joshua commanded, and took up twelve stones out of the midst of the Jordan, as Jehovah spoke to Joshua, according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Israel, and they carried them over with them to the place where they lodged, and laid them down there.
BAWIPA Cathut ni Joshua koe a dei pouh e patetlah Isarel miphun milu a pha e yit touh Jordan tui dawk e talung hrahlaikahni touh a la awh teh, roenae hmuen koe a ta awh.
9 And Joshua set up twelve stones in the midst of the Jordan, in the place where the feet of the priests who bore the ark of the covenant stood, and they are there to this day.
Lawkkam thingkong ka hrawm e vaihmanaw ni a coungroe e hmuen Jordan tui lungui e talung hrahlaikahni touh e hah Joshua ni a ung teh sahnin totouh ao.
10 For the priests who bore the ark stood in the midst of the Jordan until everything was finished that Jehovah commanded Joshua to speak to the people, according to all that Moses commanded Joshua. And the people hastened and passed over.
Joshua koe Mosi ni lawk a thui e patetlah a taminaw hah BAWIPA Cathut ni kâ a poe e pueng koung a sak totouh thingkong ka hrawm e vaihmanaw teh, Jordan tui lungui a kangdue awh. Taminaw hai kâyawm laihoi a raka awh.
11 And it came to pass, when all the people were clean passed over, that the ark of Jehovah passed over, and the priests, in the presence of the people.
Taminaw abuemlah ni koung a raka hnukkhu hoi BAWIPA e thingkong hoi vaihmanaw teh, taminaw e hmaitung vah a raka awh.
12 And the sons of Reuben, and the sons of Gad, and the half-tribe of Manasseh, passed over armed before the sons of Israel, as Moses spoke to them.
Reuben miphun, Gad miphun, Manasseh miphun tangawn teh Mosi ni a dei pouh e patetlah senehmaica hoi Isarelnaw e hmalah a raka awh.
13 About forty thousand ready armed for war passed over before Jehovah to battle, to the plains of Jericho.
Hote miphunnaw teh milu abuemlah 40000 touh a pha awh. Taran tuk hanelah a kârakueng awh laihoi BAWIPA e hmalah Jeriko tanghling koe a cei awh.
14 On that day Jehovah magnified Joshua in the sight of all Israel, and they feared him, as they feared Moses, all the days of his life.
Hote hnin nah BAWIPA ni Isarel miphun abuemlae hmalah Joshua hah a kamsawng sak teh Mosi a taki awh e patetlah Joshua hai a hringyung thung pueng a taki awh.
15 And Jehovah spoke to Joshua, saying,
Hahoi BAWIPA ni Joshua koe a dei pouh e teh,
16 Command the priests who bear the ark of the testimony, that they come up out of the Jordan.
lawkpanuesaknae thingkong ka hrawm e vaihmanaw ni Jordan tui dawk hoi a tâco awh han telah kâ a poe e patetlah,
17 Joshua therefore commanded the priests, saying, Come ye up out of the Jordan.
Jordan tui dawk hoi tâcawt awh leih telah vaihmanaw hah Joshua ni kâ a poe.
18 And it came to pass, when the priests who bore the ark of the covenant of Jehovah came up out of the midst of the Jordan, and the soles of the priests' feet were lifted up to the dry ground, that the waters of the Jordan returned to their place, and went over all its banks, as formerly.
BAWIPA e lawkkam thingkong ka hrawm e vaihmanaw teh Jordan tui lungui hoi a tâco awh teh, khoksampha ni a oung lah a coungroe navah Jordan tui teh ama lawngnae hmuen dawk bout a lawng.
19 And the people came up out of the Jordan on the tenth day of the first month, and encamped in Gilgal on the east border of Jericho.
Apasueke thapa hnin hra hnin vah, taminaw teh Jordan tui dawk hoi a tâco awh teh, Jeriko kanîtholah Gilgal e hmuen koe rim a sak awh.
20 And those twelve stones, which they took out of the Jordan, Joshua set up in Gilgal.
Jordan tui dawk e a la awh e talung hrahlaikahni touh e hah Joshua ni Gilgal e hmuen koe a ung.
21 And he spoke to the sons of Israel, saying, When your sons shall ask their fathers in time to come, saying, What do these stones mean?
Isarel miphunnaw ni hmalae atueng nah a napanaw koe a canaw ni hete talungnaw hah bangtelae maw telah pacei awh boipawiteh,
22 Then ye shall let your sons know, saying, Israel came over this Jordan on dry land.
Nangmouh ni Isarel miphunnaw ni talai dawk cei e patetlah Jordan tui a raka awh telah na canaw koevah na dei pouh awh han.
23 For Jehovah your God dried up the waters of the Jordan from before you, until ye were passed over, as Jehovah your God did to the Red Sea, which he dried up from before us, until we were passed over,
BAWIPA Cathut ni tuipui paling be a raka awh hoehroukrak, nangmouh hmalah a hak sak e patetlah BAWIPA Cathut ni Jordan palang be na raka awh hoehroukrak a hak sak van.
24 that all the peoples of the earth may know the hand of Jehovah, that it is mighty, that ye may fear Jehovah your God forever.
Hatdawkvah, miphun pueng ni BAWIPA thaonae kut a panue awh vaiteh, nangmouh ni hai BAWIPA Cathut pou na taki thai awh nahanelah doeh atipouh.
