< Deuteronomy 1 >

1 These [are] the words which Moses spoke to all Israel on this side Jordan in the desert towards the west near the Red Sea, between Pharan Tophol, and Lobon, and Aulon, and the gold works.
Kahrawngum, Jordan palang teng, Shuph khopui, Paran khopui, Tophel khopui, Hazeroth, Dizahab khopuinaw koevah, Mosi ni Isarelnaw koe bout a dei e lawk teh:
2 [It is] a journey of eleven days from Choreb to mount Seir as far as Cades Barne.
Kadeshbarnea hateh, Seir mon lam lahoi Horeb e a onae hoi hnin 11 lamcei ahla.
3 And it came to pass in the forties year, in the eleventh month, on the first [day] of the month, Moses spoke to all the children of Israel, according to all things which the Lord commanded him for them:
Mosi ni Heshbon khopui kaawm e, Amor Siangpahrang Sihon thoseh, Edrei ram, Ashtaroth khopui kaawm e Bashan siangpahrang Og thoseh, a thei hnukkhu
4 after he had struck Seon king of the Amorites who lived in Esebon, and Og the king of Basan who lived in Astaroth and in Edrain;
Kum 40 thapa yung 11 apasuek hnin dawk Moab ram
5 beyond Jordan in the land of Moab, Moses began to declare this law, saying,
Jordan palang teng vah, Cathut ni lawk a poe tangcoung e patetlah Isarelnaw koe bout a dei e kâlawk hateh,
6 The Lord your God spoke to us in Choreb, saying, Let it suffice you to have lived [so long] in this mountain.
Maimae BAWIPA Cathut ni, Horeb hmuen dawk, na dei pouh e teh, nangmouh ni atueng a kuep ditouh hete mon dawk na o awh toe.
7 Turn you and depart and enter into the mountain of the Amorites, and [go] to all that dwell near about Araba, to the mountain and the plain and to the south, and the land of the Chananites near the sea, and Antilibanus, as far as the great river, the river Euphrates.
Kamlang awh nateh bout kamthaw awh haw. Amor mon totouh thoseh, hote mon hoi kahnai e hmuen tanghling, akalah, tuipui teng, Kanaan ram, Lebanon mon, Euphrates tuipui totouh cet awh haw.
8 Behold, [God] has delivered the land before you; go in and inherit the land, which I sware to your fathers, Abraam, and Isaac, and Jacob, to give it to them and to their seed after them.
Hote ram teh nangmouh hmalah ka hruek toe. Cathut ni, nangmae na pa Abraham, Isak, Jakop koehoi kamtawng teh a catounnaw ka poe han telah lawk a kam e ram hah kâen nateh coe awh, telah atipouh.
9 And I spoke to you at that time, saying, I shall not be able by myself to bear you.
Hatnavah, Kai ni nangmouh koe ka dei e thaw heh ka madueng ka phawt thai mahoeh.
10 The Lord your God has multiplied you, and, behold, you are today as the stars of heaven for multitude.
Nangmae BAWIPA Cathut ni nangmouh na pung sak awh vaiteh, nangmouh teh kalvan âsi patetlah sahnin na o awh.
11 The Lord God of your fathers add to you a thousand-fold more than you are, and bless you as he has spoken to you.
Nangmae na pa BAWIPA Cathut ni nangmouh teh alet 1000 lahoi na pung sak naseh. Lawk a kam e patetlah yawhawi na poe a seh.
12 How shall I alone be able to bear your labour, and your burden, and your gainsayings?
Na tawntamnae, thawtawknae, kâyuekâounnae hnokari kai ka madueng ni bangtelamaw ka phu thai han.
13 Take to yourselves wise and understanding and prudent men for your tribes, and I will set your leaders over you.
A lungkaangnaw, ka thaipanueknaw, hoi ka thoumthainaw hah na miphun thung hoi rawi awh. Ahnimanaw hah ka hrawikung lah ka hruek han telah dei awh pawteh,
14 And you answered me and said, The thing which you have told us [is] good to do.
nangmouh ni, na dei e patetlah ahawi telah bout a dei awh.
15 So I took of you wise and understanding and prudent men, and I set them to rule over you as rulers of thousands, and rulers of hundreds, and rulers of fifties, and rulers of tens, and officers to your judges.
Hatdawkvah na miphunnaw dawk mitkhet kamcu e kacuenaw panuenae ka tawn naw ka rawi hnukkhu nangmouh koe kacue thaw ka tawk hanelah 1,000 ka uk hane, 100 ka uk hane, 50 ka uk hane, 10 ka uk hane ukkungnaw hah ka rawi.
16 And I charged your judges at that time, saying, Hear [causes] between your brethren, and judge rightly between a man and [his] brother, and the stranger that is with him.
Lawkcengkungnaw hai, na hmaunawnghanaw e kamcan hah a thai awh vaiteh, hmaunawngha reira e kamcan thoseh, Jentelnaw hoi e kamcan thoseh kalancalah lawkceng awh.
17 You shall not have respect to persons in judgement, you shall judge small and great equally; you shall not shrink from before the person of a man, for the judgement is God's; and whatever matter shall be too hard for you, you shall bring it to me, and I will hear it.
Lawkcengnae dawkvah, apie minhmai hai khen hanh. Camo e lawk hah kacue e lawk patetlah pouk. Apihai taket hanh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, lawkcengnae teh Cathut e doeh. Na dei thai hoeh e kamcan hah kai koe thokhai awh. Kai ni hai ka thai han telah lawk a thui.
18 And I charged upon you at that time all the commands which you shall perform.
Nangmouh ni na sak awh hane naw hai hatnavah kâ na poe toe.
19 And we departed from Choreb, and went through all that great wilderness and terrible, which you saw, by the way of the mountain of the Amorite, as the Lord our God charged us, and we came as far as Cades Barne.
Kaimouh ni Horeb hmuen koehoi ka tâco awh teh, Amor mon totouh ceinae lam teng vah, takikathopounge kahrawngum ka cei awh teh Kadeshbarnea hmuen koe ka pha awh.
20 And I said to you, You have come as far as the mountain of the Amorite, which the Lord our God gives to you:
BAWIPA ni kâ na poe e patetlah hatnavah kai nihai, maimae BAWIPA Cathut ni na poe awh e Amor mon vah nangmouh ni na pha awh toe.
21 behold, the Lord your God has delivered to us the land before you: go up and inherit it as the Lord God of your fathers said to you; fear not, neither be afraid.
Nangmae BAWIPA Cathut ni ram kahawi teh nangmouh hmalah ka hruek toe. Nangmae napanaw e BAWIPA ni a dei e patetlah cet awh nateh lawm awh, taket awh hanh, na lung hai pout awh hanh telah a dei.
22 And you all came to me, and said, Let us send men before us, and let them go up to the land for us; and let them bring back to us a report of the way by which we shall go up, and of the cities into which we shall enter.
Hatnavah nangmanaw pueng ni kai koe na tho awh teh, kaimae hmalah taminaw ka patoun han. Ahnimouh ni hote ram hah a rip awh hnukkhu, kaimouh teh nâ lam cet pawiteh, bang khopui dawk pha awh han doeh telah a dei awh han telah a dei awh e heh,
23 And the saying pleased me: and I took of you twelve men, one man of a tribe.
kai ni ka ngai dawkvah miphun buet touh dawk tami buet touh, asumkum 12 touh hah na rawi awh.
24 And they turned and went up to the mountain, and they came as far as the valley of the cluster, and surveyed it.
Ahnimouh ni mon koe lah a kamlang awh teh Eshkol tanghling koe a pha awh teh a tuet awh.
25 And they took in their hands of the fruit of the land, and brought it to you, and said, The land is good which the Lord our God gives us.
Hote ram dawk e a paw a hrawm awh teh a thokhai navah, maimae Cathut ni na poe e ram teh kahawi e ram doeh telah a dei awh eiteh,
26 Yet you would not go up, but rebelled against the words of the Lord our God.
Nangmouh ni na cet awh laipalah, namamae BAWIPA Cathut e kâ na ek awh.
27 And you murmured in your tents, and said, Because the Lord hated us, he has brought us out of the land of Egypt to deliver us into the hands of the Amorites, to destroy us.
Cathut ni maimouh na hmuhma teh raphoe sak han na ngai awh dawkvah, Amornaw e kut dawk na poe hanlah, Izip ram hoi na tâcokhai awh khe.
28 Whither do we go up? and your brethren drew away your heart, saying, [It is a] great nation and populous, and mightier than we; and [there are] cities great and walled up to heaven: moreover we saw there the sons of the giants.
Maimouh ni bangtelamaw cei awh han toung, hmaunawnghanaw ni hote kho dawk e taminaw teh maimouh hlak a len awh. A rasang poung awh. Kalvan ka deng e khopui, rapan hai ao. Hote kho dawk Anakim miphunnaw ka hmu awh telah maimae lungthin a raphoe toe telah nangmouh ni rimnaw dawk na taran awh toe.
29 And I said to you, Fear not, neither be you afraid of them;
Hatnavah kai ni, puen hanh awh, ahnimouh taket a hanh awh.
30 the Lord your God who goes before your face, he shall fight against them together with you effectually, according to all that he wrought for you in the land of Egypt;
Nangmae hmalah ka cet e nangmae Cathut ni na hmalae Izip ram hai thoseh,
31 and in this wilderness which you saw, by the way of the mountain of the Amorite; how the Lord your God will bear you as a nursling, as if any man should nurse his child, through all the way which you have gone until you came to this place.
nangmouh ni na dawn e lam, hete hmuen totouh a na pa ni a ca a tapam e patetlah nangmae Cathut ni nangmouh na tapam teh, lungmanae na coenae kahrawng hai thoseh, nangmouh han a sak e patetlah nangmouh koe lah taran na kabawp awh han telah a dei nakunghai,
32 And in this matter you believed not the Lord our God,
nangmouh ni rim tumpup nahan hmuen tawng awh nateh na cei awh nahan lam na patue hanelah karum vah hmai dawk thoseh, khodai lah tâmai dawk thoseh,
33 who goes before you in the way to choose you a place, guiding you in fire by night, showing you the way by which you go, and a cloud by day.
nangmae hmalah ka cet e Cathut e lawk hah hote kong dawk nangmouh ni na yuem awm hoeh toe.
34 And the Lord heard the voice of your words, and being greatly provoked he sware, saying,
Nangmae lawk Cathut ni a thai nah a lungkhuek teh,
35 Not one of these men shall see this good land, which I sware to their fathers,
ahnimae mintoenaw ka poe han ka tie ka lawkkam ram kahawi hah Jephunneh capa Kalep hloilah hete kathoute Miphunnaw buet touh ni boehai kâen awh mahoeh.
36 except Chaleb the son of Jephonne, he shall see it; and to him I will give the land on which he went up, and to his sons, because he attended to the things of the Lord.
Ahni teh Cathut e hnuk roup a kâbang dawk a kâen. A coungroe e ram hah ahni koehoi kamtawng teh ahnie catounnaw ka poe han telah lawk ka kam.
37 And the Lord was angry with me for your sake, saying, Neither shall you by any means enter therein.
Ahnimouh han Cathut ni, kai koehai a lungkhuek, nang teh hote ram na coe mahoeh.
38 Joshua the son of Naue, who stands by you, he shall enter in there; do you strengthen him, for he shall cause Israel to inherit it.
Na kut rahim e Nun capa Joshua ni a coe han. Ahni teh Isarelnaw râw ka coe sak hanelah ao dawk. Ahni hah thapoe haw.
39 And every young child who this day knows not good or evil, —they shall enter therein, and to them I will give it, and they shall inherit it.
Taran ni a lawp e lah ao han na ti awh e camonaw, hatnavah thoe hoi hawi kapek thai hoeh rae canu capanaw ni, hote ram a coe awh vaiteh, kai ni ka poe e patetlah a lawp awh han.
40 And you turned and marched into the wilderness, in the way by the Red Sea.
Nangmouh teh na kamlang awh vaiteh tuipuipaling lam lahoi kahrawng lah bout cet awh ei telah a ti.
41 And you answered and said, We have sinned before the Lord our God; we will go up and fight according to all that the Lord our God has commanded us: and having taken every one his weapons of war, and being gathered together, you went up to the mountain.
Nangmouh ni hai, kaimouh ni Cathut hah koe ka payon awh toe. Maimae Cathut ni lawk na thui awh e patetlah atu cei awh vaiteh taran tuk han telah na dei pouh teh, tami pueng puengcang rip a patuep awh teh, mon lah takhang hanelah coungkacoe ao awh.
42 And the Lord said to me, Tell them, You shall not go up, neither shall you fight, for I am not with you; thus shall you not be destroyed before your enemies.
Cathut ni hai tuk awh hanh, nangmouh koe lah kai kaawm hoeh, na tuk awh pawiteh taran hmalah na sung awh han telah kai ni ka dei e patetlah,
43 And I spoke to you, and you did not listen to me; and you transgressed the commandment of the Lord; and you forced your way and went up into the mountain.
kai ni ka dei nakunghai nangmouh ni na tarawi awh hoeh. Cathut e kâ eknae hoi mon lah na luen awh.
44 And the Amorite who lived in that mountain came out to meet you, and pursued you as bees do, and wounded you from Seir to Herma.
Hatnavah mon dawkvah la kaawm e Amor miphunnaw ni nangmouh koe lah a tâco teh, khoi ni a rongyawn e patetlah nangmouh na kayo awh teh Seir hoi Hormah khopui totouh na thei awh.
45 And you sat down and wept before the Lord our God, and the Lord listened not to your voice, neither did he take heed to you.
Nangmouh hai bout na tho awh teh, Cathut hmalah na khui na ka awh. Hatei nangmae na lawk hah Cathut ni thai hoeh.
46 And you lived in Cades many days, as many days as you lived [there].
Hatdawkvah Kadesh hmuen dawk yampa na o awh e patetlah moi ka saw lah na o awh.
