< Deuteronomy 2 >
1 Then we turned back and headed for the wilderness by way of the Red Sea, as the LORD had instructed me, and for many days we wandered around Mount Seir.
Cathut ni kai koe bout a dei e patetlah kaimouh ni kamlang awh vaiteh, Tuipui paling kahrawng lahoi ka cei teh Seir mon hah moi ka saw lah ka lawngven awh.
2 At this time the LORD said to me,
Cathut nihai, nangmouh ni atueng akuep nahan hete mon hah na lawngven awh toe.
3 “You have been wandering around this hill country long enough; turn to the north
Atunglah bout cet awh ei.
4 and command the people: ‘You will pass through the territory of your brothers, the descendants of Esau, who live in Seir. They will be afraid of you, so you must be very careful.
Nang ni tami pueng koe na dei pouh hane teh, na hmau Esaw miphunnaw a onae Seir ram teng vah, nangmouh na cei awh toteh ahnimouh ni a taki awh han. Hatdawkvah kâhruetcuet awh.
5 Do not provoke them, for I will not give you any of their land, not even a footprint, because I have given Mount Seir to Esau as his possession.
Rek saueng hanh awh. Ahnimae ram hah, kai ni nangmouh na poe hoeh. Na coungroenae khok hmuen tittouh hai na poe hoeh. Seir mon hateh Esaw yo ka poe toe.
6 You are to pay them in silver for the food you eat and the water you drink.’”
Nangmouh ni na canei nahane bu hoi tui hai thoseh, ahnimouh koe tangka hoi na ran awh han.
7 Indeed, the LORD your God has blessed you in all the work of your hands. He has watched over your journey through this vast wilderness. The LORD your God has been with you these forty years, and you have lacked nothing.
Nangmouh ni na tawksaknae pueng dawk, nangmae Cathut ni yawhawinae a poe toe. Hete kahrawngpui dawk nangmouh na lawngven awh e a kongnaw a panue. A kum 40 touh thung nangmae BAWIPA Cathut ni nangmouh hoi cungtalah ao nah, banghai nangmouh dawk panki hoeh telah ati.
8 So we passed by our brothers, the descendants of Esau, who live in Seir. We turned away from the Arabah road, which comes up from Elath and Ezion-geber, and traveled along the road of the Wilderness of Moab.
Seir ram kaawm e maimae hmau Esaw miphun koe cei awh teh, Elath khopui Eziongeber khopui hoi ka cet e lam tâphai koe ka dawn awh teh, haw hoi bout kamlang awh teh Moab kahrawng lam lahoi ka cei awh.
9 Then the LORD said to me, “Do not harass the Moabites or provoke them to war, for I will not give you any of their land, because I have given Ar to the descendants of Lot as their possession.”
BAWIPA Cathut nihai, Moab khocanaw rucat poe awh hanh, tuk awh hanh, ahnimae ram kai ni na poe awh hoeh. Arab ram teh Lot miphunnaw kai ni yo ka poe toe telah ti pouh.
10 (The Emites used to live there, a people great and many, as tall as the Anakites.
Ayan vah Anakim miphun patetlah ka rasang kalen e Em miphunnaw teh hote ram dawk ao awh.
11 Like the Anakites, they were also regarded as Rephaim, though the Moabites called them Emites.
Ahnimouh teh, Anakim miphunnaw patetlah ao e lah a pouk awh. Hatnavah Moab ram khocanaw ni ahnimanaw teh EM telah a kaw awh.
12 The Horites used to live in Seir, but the descendants of Esau drove them out. They destroyed the Horites from before them and settled in their place, just as Israel did in the land that the LORD gave them as their possession.)
Ayan vah Hor taminaw teh Seir ram vah ao awh. Ahnimouh hah Esaw miphunnaw ni a thei awh teh, ahnimouh onae hmuen dawk ao awh. Hot patetlah Cathut ni a poe e ram hah Isarel miphunnaw ni ati awh.
13 “Now arise and cross over the Brook of Zered.” So we crossed over the Brook of Zered.
Atu cet awh nateh Zered tui rakat awh haw telah a dei e patetlah Ahnimouh ni Zered tui a raka awh.
14 The time we spent traveling from Kadesh-barnea until we crossed over the Brook of Zered was thirty-eight years, until that entire generation of fighting men had perished from the camp, as the LORD had sworn to them.
Kadeshbarnea hmuen koe ahmaloe phanae tueng koehoi ka tâco awh teh Zered tui rakanae tueng totouh kum 38 touh a ro. Cathut ni lawk a kam e patetlah ahmaloe e taran ka tuk thai e ransanaw pueng teh taminaw thungup hoi a due awh.
15 Indeed, the LORD’s hand was against them, to eliminate them from the camp, until they had all perished.
Ahnimouh raphoe hoeh roukrak, Cathut ni ahnimouh koehoi pâmit hanelah a kut a dâw.
16 Now when all the fighting men among the people had died,
Taran ka tuk thai e pueng tamihu thung e koung a pâmit sak hnukkhu,
Cathut ni nang teh Moab ram,
18 “Today you are going to cross the border of Moab at Ar.
Ar ram a lungui vah sahnin na cei han.
19 But when you get close to the Ammonites, do not harass them or provoke them, for I will not give you any of the land of the Ammonites. I have given it to the descendants of Lot as their possession.”
Ammon miphunnaw teng na pha torei teh ahnimouh rucatnae poe awh hanh, reksaueng awh hanh. Ammon miphunnaw a onae ram hah kai ni nangmouh koe na poe hoeh. Hote ram teh Lot miphunnaw kai ni ka poe toe telah kai koe a dei.
20 (That too was regarded as the land of the Rephaim, who used to live there, though the Ammonites called them Zamzummites.
Hote ram hai kalenpounge taminaw e hmuen doeh telah taminaw ni a pouk awh. Ayan e tueng dawk, hot patetlae taminaw ni ao awh. Ahnimouh hah Ammon ram khocanaw ni Zamzummim telah a kaw awh.
21 They were a people great and many, as tall as the Anakites. But the LORD destroyed them from before the Ammonites, who drove them out and settled in their place,
Hote miphun teh Anakim miphunnaw patetlah kalenpoung kapap poung e taminaw doeh.
22 just as He had done for the descendants of Esau who lived in Seir, when He destroyed the Horites from before them. They drove them out and have lived in their place to this day.
Hatei Seir ram dawk kaawm e Esaw miphun e hmalah Hor taminaw hah Cathut ni a raphoe dawkvah, ahnimae hmuen dawk Esaw miphunnaw ni sahnin totouh ao e patetlah koung a pâmit teh ahnimae hmuen dawk Arnonnaw ni ao awh.
23 And the Avvim, who lived in villages as far as Gaza, were destroyed by the Caphtorites, who came out of Caphtor and settled in their place.)
Hot patetlah Hazrim khopui koehoi Gaza khopui totouh ouk kaawm e naw Avvimnaw hai Kaptor khopui ka tâcawt e Kaptor taminaw ni a raphoe awh teh, ahnimanaw a onae hmuen dawk ao awh.
24 “Arise, set out, and cross the Arnon Valley. See, I have delivered into your hand Sihon the Amorite, king of Heshbon, and his land. Begin to take possession of it and engage him in battle.
Nangmouh na thaw awh vaiteh cet awh haw, Arnon tuipui raka awh haw. Amor miphun, Heshbon siangpahrang Sihon hoi a talai hah nangmae kut dawk ka poe toung dawkvah, khosak awh nateh hote bawi hah tuk awh.
25 This very day I will begin to put the dread and fear of you upon all the nations under heaven. They will hear the reports of you and tremble in anguish because of you.”
Tâmai rahim kaawm e pueng, miphunnaw ni sahnin nangmouh tâsue taki laihoi ao nahan ka sak han. Nangmae kamthang a thai awh vaiteh, puennae, pâyawnae, runae puenghoi a kâhmo awh han telah ati.
26 So from the Wilderness of Kedemoth I sent messengers with an offer of peace to Sihon king of Heshbon, saying,
Kai hai Kedemoth kahrawng hoi Heshbon siangpahrang Sihon koevah patounenaw ka patoun vaiteh,
27 “Let us pass through your land; we will stay on the main road. We will not turn to the right or to the left.
Aram lungui vah na cetsak haw, na lam dawk dueng ka dawn han. Avoilah aranglah ka phen mahoeh.
28 You can sell us food to eat and water to drink in exchange for silver. Only let us pass through on foot,
Seir ram kaawm e Esaw miphun, Ar ram dawk kaawm e Moab miphunnaw ni kai dawk a sak awh e patetlah ka ca hane rawca thoseh, nei hane tui hai thoseh, tangka hoi yawt lawih.
29 just as the descendants of Esau who live in Seir and the Moabites who live in Ar did for us, until we cross the Jordan into the land that the LORD our God is giving us.”
Kai teh Cathut ni na poe e ram lah Jordan palang ka raka vaiteh ka pha hoehroukrak Seir ram lungui dawk khok hoi ka cet haw nei telah kâhuikonae lawk hoi ka dei nakunghai,
30 But Sihon king of Heshbon would not let us pass through, for the LORD your God had made his spirit stubborn and his heart obstinate, that He might deliver him into your hand, as is the case this day.
Kaimouh ka cei nahane Heshbon siangpahrang Sihon ni kâ na poe hoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, sahnin kamnue e patetlah nangmae Cathut ni hote siangpahrang nangmae kut dawk na poe hanelah, lung a tha o sak, lungpatanae lungthin a poe.
31 Then the LORD said to me, “See, I have begun to deliver Sihon and his land over to you. Now begin to conquer and possess his land.”
Cathut ni hai Sihon siangpahrang hoi a talai hah na poe han. Hote talai hah râw lah na pang hanelah lat lawih telah a dei.
32 So Sihon and his whole army came out for battle against us at Jahaz.
Hatnavah, Sihon siangpahrang teh amae tami puenghoi Jahaz vah maimanaw na tuk hanelah a tâco.
33 And the LORD our God delivered him over to us, and we defeated him and his sons and his whole army.
Maimae Cathut ni hote siangpahrang hah maimouh koe na poe teh, ama hoi a canaw hoi tami pueng ka thei awh.
34 At that time we captured all his cities and devoted to destruction the people of every city, including women and children. We left no survivors.
Hatnavah ahnie khopui pueng ka tuk awh teh, napui tongpa, camonaw buet touh hai hlung laipalah koung ka pâmit awh.
35 We carried off for ourselves only the livestock and the plunder from the cities we captured.
Saringnaw, khopui dawk e hnopainaw dueng kamamouh hanlah ka la pouh awh.
36 From Aroer on the rim of the Arnon Valley, along with the city in the valley, even as far as Gilead, not one city had walls too high for us. The LORD our God gave us all of them.
Arnon tuipui teng kaawm e Aroer khopui hoi Gilead khopui totouh, tuipui teng kaawm e pueng khopuinaw thung, ka tâ thai hoeh e buet touh hai khopui awm hoeh. Maimae Cathut ni a cawngca pueng maimouh dawk na poe.
37 But you did not go near the land of the Ammonites, or the land along the banks of the Jabbok River, or the cities of the hill country, or any place that the LORD our God had forbidden.
Hatnavah Ammon miphunnaw a onae talai, Jabbok tuipui hoi talai, mon dawk e khopui hoi maimae Cathut ni na cakâ pouh e bang buet touh hai ka hnai awh hoeh.
