< Judges 1 >
1 After the death of Joshua, the children of Israel asked of the LORD, saying, “Who should go up for us first against the Canaanites, to fight against them?”
Joshua thinung in, Israelten Pakai koma “Canaan mite satdinga koi phung kon masa ding ham?” tin ana dongun ahi.
2 The LORD said, “Judah shall go up. Behold, I have delivered the land into his hand.”
Pakaiyin “Judah kon masa ding ahi, ajeh chu hiche gamhi amaho khut-a kana pehdohsa ahi,” ati.
3 Judah said to Simeon his brother, “Come up with me into my lot, that we may fight against the Canaanites; and I likewise will go with you into your lot.” So Simeon went with him.
Hijeh chun Judah’in asopipa Simeon koma chun, “Keima eikipe gamsunga Canaan mite toh kisat ding kahi, neihung kithopin chujouteng nangma naki pehna gam ajong chun gal gasat khomna hite,” ati. Hiti chun Simeon’in Judah chu akithopin ahi.
4 Judah went up, and the LORD delivered the Canaanites and the Perizzites into their hand. They struck ten thousand men in Bezek.
Judah miten galmi hochu aga nokhum’un ahileh Pakaiyin Canaan mitele Periz mite chu agal ajosah in chule Bezek khopia chun galmi sangsom athat un ahi.
5 They found Adoni-Bezek in Bezek, and they fought against him. They struck the Canaanites and the Perizzites.
Hiche Bezek muna chun Adoni-Bezek lengpa chu akisat piuvin galchu anajou un chule Canaan mite leh Periz mite jong ajou uvin ahi.
6 But Adoni-Bezek fled. They pursued him, caught him, and cut off his thumbs and his big toes.
Adoni-Bezek ajamdoh in, ahinlah Israelten ahin man un akhutpi leh akengpi hochu atanboh peh un ahi.
7 Adoni-Bezek said, “Seventy kings, having their thumbs and their big toes cut off, scavenged under my table. As I have done, so God has done to me.” They brought him to Jerusalem, and he died there.
Adoni-Bezek’in, “Keiman phat khat in leng somsagi hochu akhutpiu leh akengpiu hochu kanatan peh in ka-an nehna dokhang noiya alhajah ho ananeovin, keiman amaho kanabol bangin tun Pathen’in keima eile thuhtai,” ati. Amachu Jerusalem'a ana puiyun hikoma chun ana thitan ahi.
8 The children of Judah fought against Jerusalem, took it, struck it with the edge of the sword, and set the city on fire.
Judah ten Jerusalem ana sat’un anajou'un agamu ana laovin amipite ana that gam’un chule akhopiu chu meiyin anahal-lha tauvin ahi.
9 After that, the children of Judah went down to fight against the Canaanites who lived in the hill country, and in the South, and in the lowland.
Hiche jou chun achesuh uvin Negev leh lhumlam thinglhang gama cheng Canaan mite akisat piuvin ahi.
10 Judah went against the Canaanites who lived in Hebron. (The name of Hebron before that was Kiriath Arba.) They struck Sheshai, Ahiman, and Talmai.
Hiche jou chun Judah ten Hebron’a cheng Canaan mite agakisat piuvin, (Hiche Hebron hi tuma sanga chu Kiriath-arba anakiti ahi) hichea chun, Shesai, Ahiman le Talmai galmi ho jong chu anajou-un ahi.
11 From there he went against the inhabitants of Debir. (The name of Debir before that was Kiriath Sepher.)
Hichea kon chun amaho acheuvin Debir khopia chengho satdin akon tauve. Debir khopi jonghi masang chun amin Kiriath-sepher ana kitin ahi.
12 Caleb said, “I will give Achsah my daughter as wife to the man who strikes Kiriath Sepher, and takes it.”
Caleb in koi hileh Kiriath-sepher gasat'a ahin lajou penpen chu kachanu Acsah hi aji dinga kapeh ding ahi, ati.
13 Othniel the son of Kenaz, Caleb’s younger brother, took it, so he gave him Achsah his daughter as his wife.
Caleb naopa Kenaz chapa Othniel’in aga jouvin, hijeh chun Acsah chu Othniel’in akichenpi tai.
14 When she came, she got him to ask her father for a field. She got off her donkey; and Caleb said to her, “What would you like?”

15 She said to him, “Give me a blessing; because you have set me in the land of the South, give me also springs of water.” Then Caleb gave her the upper springs and the lower springs.
Amanun jong “Thilkhat neipeh ben kati ahi, nang in Negev gam chu neipeh ahitah leh twinah phung khattoh neipeh than,” ati. Hichun Caleb in twinah achungnung leh anoinung jong apehben ahi.
16 The children of the Kenite, Moses’ brother-in-law, went up out of the city of palm trees with the children of Judah into the wilderness of Judah, which is in the south of Arad; and they went and lived with the people.

18 Also Judah took Gaza with its border, and Ashkelon with its border, and Ekron with its border.
Hiche ban ajong chun Judah in Gaza, Ashkelon chule Ekron khopi holeh avela gamho chutoh alatha tauvin ahi.
19 The LORD was with Judah, and drove out the inhabitants of the hill country; for he could not drive out the inhabitants of the valley, because they had chariots of iron.
Pakai chun, Judah mite chu ana umpin hiti chun amahon thinglhang gam pumpi chu ana lokhum tauvin, ahivangin amahon sakol thih kangtalai mangchaa phaichama cheng hochu ana deldoh joupouvin ahi.
20 They gave Hebron to Caleb, as Moses had said, and he drove the three sons of Anak out of there.
Mose’n ana thutep peh bangin Caleb chu Hebron ana peuvin ahi. Hiti chun Caleb in hiche muna cheng Anak chate chilhah thum hochu ana nodoh in ahi.
21 The children of Benjamin did not drive out the Jebusites who inhabited Jerusalem, but the Jebusites dwell with the children of Benjamin in Jerusalem to this day.
Ahinlah Benjamin chaten vang Jerusalem’a chengho Jebus mite chu ana nodoh joupouvin, hijeh chun tuni geiyin Jerusalem khopia Jebus mitehi Benjamin mite toh achengkhom un ahi.
22 The house of Joseph also went up against Bethel, and the LORD was with them.

23 The house of Joseph sent to spy out Bethel. (The name of the city before that was Luz.)
Amahon khopi velhi dingin mi anasol'un (Tumasanga chu Luz ana kiti ahi).
24 The watchers saw a man come out of the city, and they said to him, “Please show us the entrance into the city, and we will deal kindly with you.”
Amahon khopia kona hung potdoh mikhat chu ana kihou piuvin, “Hiche khopi lutna ding lampi neihil'un, achutileh keihon khotona kamusah diu nahi” atiuve.
25 He showed them the entrance into the city, and they struck the city with the edge of the sword; but they let the man and all his family go.
Hiti chun aman alutna theidiu lampi chu ahil'in, amaho hiche lampi ah chun alut'un hiche khopi sunga umjouse chu abon'in athat un, hiche mipa chule ainsung mite sevang ahing hoijun ahi.
26 The man went into the land of the Hittites, built a city, and called its name Luz, which is its name to this day.
Khonung in hiche mipa chu Hit mite gama aga chenglut’in, hichea chun khopi khat aphutdoh in, aman akhopi min chu Luz asah in tuni geiyin hiche minchu apuden tan ahi.
27 Manasseh did not drive out the inhabitants of Beth Shean and its towns, nor Taanach and its towns, nor the inhabitants of Dor and its towns, nor the inhabitants of Ibleam and its towns, nor the inhabitants of Megiddo and its towns; but the Canaanites would dwell in that land.

28 When Israel had grown strong, they put the Canaanites to forced labor, and did not utterly drive them out.
Israelte chu ahung hatdoh phat’un, hiche Canaan mite chu sohna anatoh sah un, hinlah gamsunga kon chun adelmang jou pouvin ahi.
29 Ephraim did not drive out the Canaanites who lived in Gezer, but the Canaanites lived in Gezer among them.

30 Zebulun did not drive out the inhabitants of Kitron, nor the inhabitants of Nahalol; but the Canaanites lived among them, and became subject to forced labor.

31 Asher did not drive out the inhabitants of Acco, nor the inhabitants of Sidon, nor of Ahlab, nor of Achzib, nor of Helbah, nor of Aphik, nor of Rehob;

32 but the Asherites lived among the Canaanites, the inhabitants of the land, for they did not drive them out.
Ahin Asher phung mite chun hiche gamsunga anachengte Canaan mite chu anodoh joulou jeh uvin, alah uvah chun agachen lut tho tauvin ahi.
33 Naphtali did not drive out the inhabitants of Beth Shemesh, nor the inhabitants of Beth Anath; but he lived among the Canaanites, the inhabitants of the land. Nevertheless the inhabitants of Beth Shemesh and of Beth Anath became subject to forced labor.

34 The Amorites forced the children of Dan into the hill country, for they would not allow them to come down to the valley;
Dan phung mite chu Amor miten thinglhang gama ale-nolut kit’un chule amaho chu phaicham ah ahung kumsuh tapouvin ahi.
35 but the Amorites would dwell in Mount Heres, in Aijalon, and in Shaalbim. Yet the hand of the house of Joseph prevailed, so that they became subject to forced labor.
Amor mite chu Heres, Aijalon le Shaalbim mol lama chun chen den ding atup’un ahi. Hinlah Joseph insung chu ahung hatdoh phat’un Amor mite chu sohna atohsah tauvin ahi.
36 The border of the Amorites was from the ascent of Akrabbim, from the rock, and upward.
