Joshua 5
1 Therefore, after all the kings of the Amorites, who were living across the Jordan toward the western region, and all the kings of Canaan, who possessed the places beside the great sea, had heard that the Lord had dried up the waters of the Jordan before the sons of Israel, until they crossed over it, their heart was broken, and there remained in them no spirit, out of fear at the entrance of the sons of Israel.
Jordan lhumlamma cheng Amor mite lengho leh Mediterranean panga cheng Canaan mite lenghon Israel mipitehi a Pathennun Jordan vadung asuhkhangpeh’in ahin palgalkai sahtai ti ajahdoh phatnun kichatnan alungthimmu alhulhop gamtauvin ahi.
2 So at that time, the Lord said to Joshua: “Make for yourself knives of stone, and circumcise the sons of Israel a second time.”
Hiche pettah chu Pakaiyin Joshua kommah “Songhem chu chemcha bangin semminlang Israelte chu akhangni channin achep’u tanpeh’in,” ati.
3 He did what the Lord had commanded, and he circumcised the sons of Israel at the hill of the foreskins.
Hitichun Joshua’n jong songhem chemchan asemmin Israelte chu Gibeath-haaraoth munnah achep’u anatanpeh’in ahi.
4 Now this is the reason for the second circumcision: All the people who departed from Egypt of the male gender, all the men fit for war, died in the desert during the very long wandering way;
Joshua’n amaho chu achepmu atanpeh louva khoh-a ahi, ajeh chu Egypt ahin dalhah uva galsatthei pasalho jouse chu gamthip gamma anathigam ah ahitauve.
5 all these had been circumcised. But the people who were born in the desert,
Egypt hindalha a pasalho jouse chu achepmu anakitan sohkeija ahiuvin, Ahinlah Egypt ma konna ahungpotdoh uva gamthip noija ahung kholjinnao kumsunga pengho chu achepmu kitan loulai ngen ahiuve.
6 throughout the forty years of the journey in the very broad wilderness, were uncircumcised, until the ones who had not listened to the voice of the Lord were consumed. For he had sworn to them before, that he would not reveal to them the land flowing with milk and honey.
Israelten Egypt ahin dalhah uva galsatthei jouse athigam kahseuva kum somli sunghi gamthip noija hung kholjinna ahiuve. Ajeh chu amahon Pakai thupeh anitlou jeh’un Pakaiyin khoiju le bongnoi lonna gam pehdinga ateppehnao gamchu alutsahlouna dinga ana kihahsella ahi.
7 The sons of these ones succeeded to the place of their fathers, and they were circumcised by Joshua. For they were uncircumcised, just as they had been born, and no one had circumcised them along the way.
Hijeh chun Joshua’n apateu mun lothei dinga hung kikhanlhit hochu achepmu atanpeh’u ahi. Ajeh chu amahohin gamtepgam ahinjotnauva hi achepmu ana kitan khaloulai ngen ahiuve.
8 Then, after they were all circumcised, they remained in the same place of the camp until they were healed.
Pasal jouse achepmu akitan jehchun amaho adamdoh kahsen ngahmunna chun ana kicholdou taovin ahi.
9 And the Lord said to Joshua, “Today I have taken away from you the disgrace of Egypt.” And the name of that place was called Gilgal, even to the present day.
Hichun Pakaiyin Joshua komma chun “Tunia hi Egypt gamma nasohchan nauva najumnao chu katolmangpeh’u ahitai,” ati. Hijeh a chu hiche mun chu tunichangeija Gilgal kitia ahitai.
10 And the sons of Israel stayed at Gilgal, and they kept the Passover, on the fourteenth day of the month at evening, in the plains of Jericho.
Israelten Gilgal munna ngahmun asemsungu lhamasa nisomle nili chan nilhahchun Jericho phaichamma kalchuh kut anamangun ahi.
11 And on the following day, they ate unleavened bread from the grain of the land, and cooked grain, of the same year.
Hichejou ajing nikhotah chun agamsungsoh agamga cholsolou changlhah a kisemleh anchang kikang chu anapantauvin ahi.
12 And the manna ceased after they ate from the grain of the land. And the sons of Israel no longer made use of that food. Instead, they ate from the grain of the present year, from the land of Canaan.
Amahon agamsungsoh agamga aneh masat niuvapat chun Manna akimutapon, mujong akimukit mongmong tapon ahi.
13 And when Joshua was in the field of the city of Jericho, he lifted up his eyes, and he saw a man standing opposite him, holding a drawn sword. And he went to him and said, “Are you one of ours, or one of our adversaries?”
Joshua chu Jericho khopi kom agalhun chun akhodah in chunglang agahvetleh akhutna chemjam kichoi mikhat amasanga adinchu amun ahi. Joshua chun ajonlutnin amapa chu ana dongin, “Nanghi eipanpi ding kagol nahim ahilouleh galmi nahim? ati.
14 And he responded: “Not at all. Instead, I am a prince of the host of the Lord, and now I have arrived.” Joshua fell prone on the ground. And reverencing, he said, “What does my lord say to his servant?”
Amachun ahindonbutnin “Khatchachu kahipoi, keima Pakai sepaite lamkaija pang tuahi hungkon kahitai,” ati. Hichun Joshua chu tolla abohkhupmin achibeijin, “Ka Pakaiyin nalhacha keima hi ipi neibolsah got ham?” ati.
15 He said: “Remove your shoes from your feet. For the place on which you stand is holy.” And Joshua did just as he had been commanded.
Pakai sepaite lamkai pachun adonbutnin, “Nakengkoh chu sutlhan ajeh chu nadinna chu muntheng ahi,” ati. Hichun Joshua’n aseibang chun aboltai.
