< Joshua 6 >
1 Now Jericho was close shut up and fenced, for fear of the children of Israel, and no man durst go out or come in.
Jerikho ngawn Israel ca rhoek loh a tlaeng la a tlaeng aka voei aka bal khaw om voel pawh.
2 And the Lord said to Josue: Behold I have given into thy hands Jericho, and the king thereof, and all the valiant men.
Te vaengah Joshua te BOEIPA loh, “So lah, Jerikho neh a manghai kah tatthai hlangrhalh te na kut ah kan tloeng coeng.
3 Go round about the city, all ye fighting men, once a day: so shall ye do for six days.
Te dongah caemtloek hlang boeih loh khopuei ke hil uh lamtah khopuei te voei khat vael uh. Te tlam te hnin rhuk khuiah saii.
4 And on the seventh day the priests shall take the seven trumpets, which are used in the jubilee, and shall go before the ark of the covenant: and you shall go about the city seven times, and the priests shall sound the trumpets.
Te vaengah khosoih parhih loh jubilee tuki parhih te thingkawng hmai ah khawt uh saeh. Tedae a hnin rhih dongkah khopuei voei rhih vael uh vaengah tuki te khosoih rhoek loh ueng uh saeh.
5 And when the voice of the trumpet shall give a longer and broken tune, and shall sound in your ears, all the people shall shout together with a very great shout, and the walls of the city shall fall to the ground, and they shall enter in every one at the place against which they shall stand.
Jubilee ki a ueng vetih tuki ol na yaak na yaak uh vaengah pilnam boeih te tamlung neh bungbung yuhui uh saeh. Te vaengah khopuei vongtung te cungku vetih pilnam te tluektluek cet uh bitni,” a ti nah.
6 Then Josue the son of Nun called the priests, and said to them: Take the ark of the covenant: and let seven other priests take the seven trumpets of the jubilee, and march before the ark of the Lord.
Te dongah Nun capa Joshua loh khosoih rhoek te a khue tih, “Paipi thingkawng te kawt uh lamtah khosoih parhih loh jubilee tuki parhih te BOEIPA kah thingkawng hmai ah kawt uh phai saeh,” a ti nah.
7 And he said to the people: Go, and compass the city, armed, marching before the ark of the Lord.
Te phoeiah pilnam te, “Lan uh lamtah khopuei ke hil uh. Aka pumcum tangtae loh BOEIPA thingkawng hmai ah cet saeh,” a ti nah tih a uen.
8 And when Josue had ended his words, and the seven priests blew the seven trumpets before the ark of the covenant of the Lord,
Joshua loh pilnam te a uen phoei van atah jubilee tuki parhih aka kawt khosoih loh BOEIPA hmai la khong uh tih tuki te a ueng uh. Te phoeiah BOEIPA kah paipi thingkawng hnuk te a vai uh.
9 And all the armed men went before, the rest of the common people followed the ark, and the sound of the trumpets was heard on all sides.
Aka pumcum tangtae ngawn tah lamhma la khong uh. Tuki aka ueng khosoih rhoek khaw thingkawng hnukah vai hamla rhutrhut cet uh tih tuki te a ueng uh.
10 But Josue had commanded the people, saying: You shall not shout, nor shall your voice be heard, nor any word go out of your mouth: until the day come wherein I shall say to you: Cry, and shout.
Tedae pilnam te Joshua loh a uen tih, “Yuhui uh boeh, na ol yaak sak uh boeh. Nangmih taengah ka thui tue a pha hlan khuiah na ka dong lamloh olka puut boel saeh. Yuhui ka ti daengah ni na yuhui uh eh.
11 So the ark of the Lord went about the city once a day, and returning into the camp, abode there.
Te dongah BOEIPA kah thingkawng te a hil puei tih khopuei te voei khat a vael phoeiah rhaehhmuen a paan uh tih rhaehhmuen ah rhaeh uh,” a ti nah.
12 And Josue rising before day, the priests took the ark of the Lord,
Joshua te mincang ah thoo bal tih BOEIPA kah thingkawng khosoih rhoek te a khuen.
13 And seven of them seven trumpets, which are used in the jubilee: and they went before the ark of the Lord walking and sounding the trumpets: and the armed men went before them, and the rest of the common people followed the ark, and they blew the trumpets.
Te vaengah jubilee tuki parhih aka kawt khosoih parhih te BOEIPA kah thingkawng hmai ah cet cet uh tih, tuki te a ueng uh. Amih hmai kah aka cet tih aka pumcum tangtae tah BOEIPA thingkawng hnukah caeh hamla tingtun uh tih a caeh caeh doela tuki te a ueng uh.
14 And they went round about the city the second day once, and returned into the camp. So they did six days.
A pabae khohnin ah khaw khopuei te voei khat a hil uh bal tih rhaehhmuen la bal uh. Te tlam te hnin rhuk a saii uh.
15 But the seventh day, rising up early, they went about the city, as it was ordered, seven times.
A hnin rhih dongkah mincang a pha vaengah thoo uh tih khopuei te voei rhih a tiktamnah hil a hil uh. Tekah khohnin dongah ni khopuei te voei rhih dawk a hil uh.
16 And when in the seventh going about the priests sounded with the trumpets, Josue said to all Israel: Shout: for the Lord hath delivered the city to you:
A voei rhih dongah tah khosoih rhoek loh tuki te a ueng uh. Te vaengah pilnam te Joshua loh, “Khopuei he BOEIPA loh nangmih m'paek coeng dongah yuhui uh.
17 And let this city be an anathema, and all things that are in it, to the Lord. Let only Rahab the harlot live, with all that are with her in the house: for she hid the messengers whom we sent.
Te vaengah khopuei neh a khuikah aka om boeih te BOEIPA taengah yaehtaboeih la boeih om. Tedae pumyoi Rakhab longtah puencawn rhoi te a thuh tih a tueih dongah amah neh a im kah boeih tah hing uh saeh.
18 But beware ye lest you touch ought of those things that are forbidden, and you be guilty of transgression, and all the camp of Israel be under sin, and be troubled.
Tedae yaehtaboeih te tah nangmih loh ngaithuen uh. Yaehtaboeih te loh ham na yakvawt uh koinih Israel kah rhaehhmuen te yaehtaboeih la na khueh uh vetih na lawn uh ve.
19 But whatsoever gold or silver there shall be, or vessels of brass and iron, let it be consecrated to the Lord, laid up in his treasures.
Cak neh sui khaw, rhohum hnopai neh thicung boeih tah BOEIPA kah hnocim la BOEIPA kah thakvoh khui ah kun sak saeh,” a ti nah.
20 So all the people making a shout, and the trumpets sounding, when the voice and the sound thundered in the ears of the multitude, the walls forthwith fell down: and every man went up by the place that was over against him: and they took the city,
Te dongah pilnam loh a yuhui vaengah tuki te a ueng uh. Tuki ol te pilnam loh a yaak vaengah pilnam loh tamlung neh bukbuk yuhui uh. Te vaengah vongtung te a dang lamkah loh cungku. Te dongah pilnam loh khopuei khuila tluek tluek boeih kun uh tih khopuei te a buem uh.
21 And killed all that were in it, man and woman, young and old. The oxen also and the sheep, and the asses, they slew with the edge of the sword.
Te vaengah khopuei khuikah huta, tongpa, camoe, patong khaw, vaito, tu neh laak khaw cunghang ha neh boeih a thup uh.
22 But Josue said to the two men that had been sent for spies: Go into the harlot’s house, and bring her out, and all things that are hers, as you assured her by oath.
Te vaengah khohmuen aka hip hlang panit taengah Joshua loh, “Pumyoi nu im la kun rhoi lamtah anih taengkah na caeng rhoi vanbangla tekah huta neh anih taengkah aka om boeih te pahoi hang khuen rhoi,” a ti nah.
23 And the young men went in and brought out Rahab, and her parents, her brethren also and all her goods and her kindred, and made them to stay without the camp.
Te dongah cadong longyam rhoi te cet rhoi tih Rakhab neh a manu a napa khaw, a nganpa rhoek neh anih taengah aka om boeih khaw a huiko rhoek boeih khaw a khuen rhoi tih Israel rhaehhmuen tollong ah a khueh rhoi.
24 But they burned the city, and all things that were therein; except the gold and silver, and vessels of brass and iron, which they consecrated into the treasury of the Lord.
Khopuei neh a khuikah aka om boeih te hmai neh a hoeh uh. Tedae cak neh sui khaw, rhohum hno neh thicung khaw BOEIPA im kah thakvoh dongah a khueh uh.
25 But Josue saved Rahab the harlot and her father’s house, and all she had, and they dwelt in the midst of Israel until this present day: because she hid the messengers whom he had sent to spy out Jericho. At that time, Josue made an imprecation, saying:
Tedae pumyoi Rakhab neh a napa cako neh anih taengkah aka om boeih tah Jerikho hip ham Joshua kah a tueih puencawn rhoi te a thuh dongah Joshua loh a hlun tih tihnin due Israel lakli ah kho a sak.
26 Cursed be the man before the Lord, that shall raise up and build the city of Jericho. In his firstborn may he lay the foundation thereof, and in the last of his children set up its gates.
Te vaeng tue ah Joshua loh a toemngam tih, “U khaw thoo tih Jerikho khopuei aka thoh hlang tah BOEIPA mikhmuh ah thaephoei thil la om ni. A caming neh a toong rhoi vetih a canoi nen ni thohkhaih khaw a thoh pueng eh,” a ti.
27 And the Lord was with Josue, and his name was noised throughout all the land.
BOEIPA loh Joshua taengah a om van dongah kho takuem ah a mingthangnah khaw om.
