Joshua 7
1 But the children of Israel transgressed the commandment, and took to their own use of the anathema. For Achan the son of Charmi, the son of Zabdi, the son of Zare of the tribe of Juda, took something of the anathema: and the Lord was angry against the children of Israel.
Tedae Israel ca rhoek te yaehtaboeih dongah boekoeknah la boe a koek uh. Judah koca khuikah Zerah kah a ca Zabdi ko Karmee capa Akhan loh yaehtaboeih la aka om te a loh. Te dongah BOEIPA kah a thintoek loh Israel ca rhoek taengah sai.
2 And when Josue sent men from Jericho against Hai, which is beside Bethaven, on the east side of the town of Bethel, he said to them: Go up, and view the country: and they fulfilled his command, and viewed Hai.
Te vaengah Jerikho lamkah hlang rhoek te Bethel khothoeng Bethaven kaepkah aka om Ai la Joshua loh tueih tih, “Cet uh lamtah khohmuen ke hip uh lah,” a ti nah. Te dongah hlang rhoek te cet uh tih Ai te a hip uh.
3 And returning they said to him: Let not all the people go up, but let two or three thousand men go and destroy the city: why should all the people be troubled in vain against enemies that are very few?
Joshua taengla a mael uh vaengah tah, “Pilnam pum he cet boel mai saeh. Hlang he tongpa thawng hnih thawng thum tluk cet uh saeh lamtah Ai te a tloek toem bitni. Amih hlangsii ham te pilnam pum taengah kohnue mai boeh,” a ti uh.
4 There went up therefore three thousand fighting men: who immediately turned their backs,
Te dongah pilnam khui lamkah hlang thawng thum tluk tah cet uh van dae Ai hlang rhoek mikhmuh ah rhaelrham uh.
5 And were defeated by the men of the city of Hai, and there fell of them six and thirty men: and the enemies pursued them from the gate as far as Sabarim, and they slew them as they fled by the descent: and the heart of the people was struck with fear, and melted like water.
Amih khui lamkah hlang sawmthum parhuk tluk te Ai hlang rhoek loh a ngawn. Amih te vongka hmai lamloh Shebarim duela a hloem uh tih singling ah a tloek vaengah pilnam tah a thinko paci tih tui bangla om uh.
6 But Josue rent his garments, and fell flat on the ground before the ark of the Lord until the evening, both he and all the ancients of Israel: and they put dust upon their heads.
Te dongah Joshua loh a himbai te a phen tih a BOEIPA kah thingkawng hmai ah kholaeh due a maelhmai neh diklai la bakop. Amah neh Israel a hamca rhoek long khaw a lu dongah laipi a poep uh.
7 And Josue said: Alas, O Lord God, why wouldst thou bring this people over the river Jordan, to deliver us into the hand of the Amorrhite, and to destroy us? would God, we had stayed beyond the Jordan as we began.
Te vaengah Joshua loh, “Aw ka Boeipa Yahovah, balae tih pilnam he Jordan na kat na kat sak phoeiah kaimih aka milh sak ham a Amori kut ah kaimih he nan voeih. Ka ueh uh mai vetih Jordan rhalvangan ah duem ka om uh mai mako?
8 My Lord God, what shall I say, seeing Israel turning their backs to their enemies?
Aw Boeipa Israel loh a thunkha rhoek kah mikhmuh ah a rhawn a maelh te balae ka ti eh.
9 The Chanaanites, and all the inhabitants of the land will hear of it, and being gathered together will surround us and cut off our name from the earth: and what wilt thou do to thy great name?
Kanaan neh khohmuen kah khosa boeih loh ya koinih kaimih he m'vael uh vetih kaimih ming he diklai lamkah a hnawt uh ni ta. Te vaengah na boeilen ming te metlam na saii eh?,” a ti nah.
10 And the Lord said to Josue: Arise, why liest thou flat on the ground?
Te dongah Joshua te BOEIPA loh, “Namah mah thoo lah. Balae tih na hmai la na bakop?
11 Israel hath sinned, and transgressed my covenant: and they have taken of the anathema, and have stolen and lied, and have hidden it among their goods.
Israel he tholh tih ka paipi khaw a poe. Amih te ka uen lalah yaehtaboeih te a loh uh bal tih a huen uh bal. Te lalah khaw basa uh tih amamih kah hnopai khuiah a khueh uh bal.
12 Neither can Israel stand before his enemies, but he shall flee from them: because he is defiled with the anathema. I will be no more with you, till you destroy him that is guilty of this wickedness.
Israel ca rhoek he a thunkha rhoek mikhmuh ah pai thai mahpawh. Yaehtaboeih la a om uh dongah a thunkha kah mikhmuh ah khaw a rhawn ni hikhik a hooi uh eh. Na khui lamkah yaehtaboeih te na khoe uh pawt atah nangmih taengah om hamla ka coeng thai voel moenih.
13 Arise, sanctify the people, and say to them: Be ye sanctified against tomorrow: for thus saith the Lord God of Israel: The anathema is in the midst of thee, O Israel: thou canst not stand before thy enemies, till he be destroyed out of thee that is defiled with this wickedness.
Thoo lamtah pilnam ke ciim laeh. Te vaengah, “Israel Pathen BOEIPA loh, 'Israel nang khui ah yaehtaboeih om tih na khui lamkah yaehtaboeih te na khoe uh hlanhil na thunkha rhoek kah mikhmuh ah pai ham tah na coeng uh moenih,’ a ti coeng dongah thangvuen kho ham namamih te ciim uh laeh,” ti nah.
14 And you shall come in the morning every one by your tribes: and what tribe soever the lot shall find, it shall come by its kindreds and the kindred by its houses, and the house by the men.
Te dongah mincang ah namamih koca rhoek loh ha capit uh laeh. BOEIPA loh a buem koca long tah amah huiko neh ha pawk uh saeh. BOEIPA loh a buem huiko long tah a imkhuikho neh ha pawk uh saeh. BOEIPA loh a buem imkhuikho long khaw a hlang rhoek neh ha pawk saeh.
15 And whosoever he be that shall be found guilty of this fact, he shall be burnt with fire with all his substance, because he hath transgressed the covenant of the Lord, and hath done wickedness in Israel.
Yaehtaboeih aka buem tah ana om saeh, BOEIPA kah paipi a poe tih Israel khui ah boethae halang ni a saii. Te dongah amah neh amah taengkah boeih te hmai neh hoeh saeh,” a ti nah.
16 Josue, therefore, when he rose in the morning, made Israel to come by their tribes, and the tribe of Juda was found,
Mincang a thoh vaengah Joshua taengla Israel koca rhoek loh ha capit uh tih Judah koca te a tuuk.
17 Which being brought by its families, it was found to be the family of Zare. Bringing that also by the houses, he found it to be Zabdi.
Judah kah a hui a ko ha pawk vaengah Zarkhii kah a huiko te a tuuk. Zarkhii huiko khuikah hlang la a pawk dongah Zabdi te a tuuk.
18 And bringing his house man by man, he found Achan the son of Charmi, the son of Zabdi, the son of Zare of the tribe of Juda.
Anih imkhui kah hlang la a pawk dongah Judah koca Zerah ko Zabdi kah a ca Karmee capa Akhan te a tuuk.
19 And Josue said to Achan: My son, give glory to the Lord God of Israel, and confess, and tell me what thou hast done, hide it not.
Te dongah Akhan te Joshua loh, “Ka ca, Israel Pathen BOEIPA taengah thangpomnah pae laeh lamtah uemonah khaw amah taengah pae laeh. Na saii te kai taengah phoe lamtah phah voel boeh,” a ti nah.
20 And Achan answered Josue, and said to him: Indeed I have sinned against the Lord the God of Israel, and thus and thus have I done.
Te vaengah Akhan loh Joshua te a doo tih, “Ue kai he Israel Pathen BOEIPA taengah ka tholh coeng tih he tlam he khaw ka saii coeng.
21 For I saw among the spoils a scarlet garment exceeding good, and two hundred sides of silver, and a golden rule of fifty sides: and I coveted them, and I took them away, and hid them in the ground is the midst of my tent, and the silver I covered with the earth that I dug up.
Kutbuem te ka sawt tih ka hmuh vaengah Shinar himbai then yungat, cak a khiing shekel yahnih, sui a khiing shekel sawmnga pakhat te ka nai tih ka loh. Tedae ka dap khui kah diklai khui ah ka up tih a cak te laedil ah om ke,” a ti nah.
22 Josue therefore sent ministers: who running to his tent, found all hidden in the same place, together with the silver.
Te dongah Joshua loh puencawn rhoek te a tueih tih dap la a yong uh vaengah tah dap khuiah a thuh tih a laedil ah cak ana om tangloeng.
23 And taking them away out of the tent, they brought them to Josue, and to all the children of Israel, and threw them down before the Lord.
Te dongah amih te dap khui lamkah a loh uh tih Joshua neh Israel ca rhoek taengla boeih a khuen uh. Te phoeiah BOEIPA hmai ah a rha uh.
24 Then Josue and all Israel with him took Achan the son of Zare, and the silver and the garments, and the golden rule, his sons also and his daughters, his oxen and asses and sheep, the tent also, and all the goods: and brought them to the valley of Achor:
Te phoeiah Zerah capa Akhan neh cak khaw, himbai khaw sui tling khaw, a capa neh a canu khaw, a vaito khaw, a laak khaw, a boiva khaw, a dap neh anih taengkah aka om boeih te Joshua loh a loh pah tih anih te Israel pum loh Akor kol la a khuen uh.
25 Where Josue said: Because thou hast troubled us, the Lord trouble thee this day. And all Israel stoned him: and all things that were his, were consumed with fire.
Te phoeiah Joshua loh, “Balae tih kaimih nan lawn, tihnin ah BOEIPA loh nang n'lawn saeh,” a ti nah. Anih te Israel pum loh lungto neh a dae uh tih hmai neh a hoeh uh. Te phoeiah ah khaw lungto neh a dae thil uh bal.
26 And they gathered together upon him a great heap of stones, which remaineth until this present day. And the wrath of the Lord was turned away from them. And the name of that place was called the Valley of Achor, until this day.
Te dongah anih sokah a kuk lungkuk te tihnin duela muep om pueng. Tedae BOEIPA thintoek thinsa a sah coeng dongah tekah a hmuen ming khaw tihnin due Akor kol la a khue.
