Joshua 22
1 Then Joshua summoned the tribes of Reuben, Gad, and the half-tribe of Manasseh.
Hahoi Joshua ni Reuben catoun, Gad catoun, Manasseh catoun tangawn hah bout a kaw teh,
2 He told them, “You have done everything that Moses, the servant of the Lord, told you to do, and you have followed all the commands I gave you.
Cathut e san Mosi a dei pouh e pueng, nangmouh ni na sak teh, kai ni ka dei e pueng lawk hai na ngâi awh toe.
3 You have never abandoned your brothers all this time, right up to the present day. You have carefully followed what the Lord your God ordered you to do.
Sahnin totouh atueng moikasaw na thung nangmouh ni hmaunawnghanaw na pahnawt laipalah, nangmae BAWIPA Cathut ni lawk na thui e naw pueng hah na tarawi awh toe.
4 Now that the Lord your God has given peace to your brothers, as he promised, go back home to your land that Moses, the servant of the Lord, gave you on the other side of the Jordan.
Atuteh nangmae BAWIPA Cathut ni a lawkkam e patetlah hmaunawnghanaw hah karoumcalah o thainae kâ na poe dawkvah, nangmanaw ban nateh, nama na onae im dawk, Jordan namran vah BAWIPA e san Mosi a poe e patetlah namamae talai dawk cet awh.
5 But make sure you keep the commandments and the law as Moses instructed you. Love the Lord your God, follow all his ways, keep his commandments, stay close to him, and serve him with your whole being.”
Hateiteh, na hringnae buemlahoi, na lungthin buemlahoi, amae thaw tawk hane hoi, kacaklah ama kuet hane hoi kâpoelawk hringkhai hane hoi a lamthung pueng tarawi hane hoi BAWIPA Cathut lungpataw hane hoi kâpoelawk hoi kâlawk, BAWIPA e san Mosi ni kâ na poe e naw hah, sak hanelah kâhruetcuet awh telah a ti.
6 Joshua blessed them, sent them on their way, and they went home.
Hottelah Joshua ni yawhawi a poe teh a ceisak teh, amamae rim dawk a cei awh.
7 Moses had given to the half-tribe of Manasseh the land of Bashan, and to the other half of the tribe Joshua had given land west of the Jordan. Joshua blessed them and sent them home.
Manasseh miphun tangawn hah Mosi ni Bashan ram dawk talai teh a poe toe. Hatei, miphun tangawn hah Joshua ni Jordan palang kanîloumlah, a hmaunawnghanaw hoi cungtalah talai teh a poe.
8 He told them, “Take all the wealth you have gained back home: the great herds of livestock, the things made of gold, silver, copper, and iron, the huge quantity of clothes. Share all this plunder with your brothers.”
Joshua ni nangmanaw teh hnopai moikapap na coe awh dawkvah, saringnaw, Sui, Ngun, Rahum, Sum, Hnicu naw sin awh nateh, namamouh onae im lah ban awh leih, tarannaw koe e na lawp awh teh, na hmu e hnopainaw hah na hmaunawnghanaw hoi kârei awh telah lawk a thui. Yawhawi a poe teh, amamouh onae im lah a cei sak.
9 So the tribes of Reuben and Gad, and the half-tribe of Manasseh left the rest of the Israelites at Shiloh in the land of Canaan and went home to their land in Gilead that they had received at the Lord's command through Moses.
BAWIPA ni Mosi koehoi kâ a poe e patetlah Reuben catoun, Gad catoun, Manasseh catoun tangawn ni tawn han kamcu e talai, Gilead ram dawk cei hanelah, Isarel miphun aonae koe Kanaan ram, Shiloh kho hoi a tâco awh.
10 When they approached the Jordan region, still in the land of Canaan, the tribes of Reuben and Gad, and the half-tribe of Manasseh built a large and impressive altar beside the Jordan River.
Kanaan ram Jordan palang teng a pha torei, Reuben catoun, Gad catoun, Manasseh catoun tangawn ni, Jordan palang teng thuengnae khoungroe kalen poung a sak awh.
11 The Israelites were told, “Look, the tribes of Reuben and Gad, and the half-tribe of Manasseh have built an altar in the Jordan region of the land of Canaan, on the side belonging to the Israelities.”
Hottelah Reuben miphun, Gad miphun, Manasseh miphun tangawn ni Kanaan ram namran Jordan palang teng Isarel miphunnaw a rakanae hmuen koe thuengnae khoungroe a sak toe tie Isarelnaw ni kamthang a thai awh.
12 The Israelites gathered at Shiloh to go to war against them.
Hote kamthang a thai awh navah, Isarel miphun tamimaya abuemlah ni tuk hanelah, Shiloh kho dawk a kamkhueng awh.
13 Before they did so, they sent Phinehas, the son of Eleazar the priest to the tribes of Reuben and Gad, and the half-tribe of Manasseh in the land of Gilead.
Isarel miphunnaw ni Gilead ram Reuben catounnaw hoi Gad catounnaw hoi Manasseh catounnaw tangawn koevah, vaihma Eleazar e capa Phinehas a patoun awh.
14 Ten leaders went with him, one from each of the ten tribes of Israel, and each the head of his family.
Ahni koe khobawi hra touh, Isarel miphunnaw thung dawk hoi imthung kahrawikung buetbuet touh, hotnaw teh Isarel miphunnaw thung dawk hoi imthung kaukkungnaw doeh.
15 After they arrived they told the tribes of Reuben and Gad, and the half-tribe of Manasseh,
Hote kahrawikungnaw teh, Reuben catoun, Gad catoun, Manasseh catoun, tangawn ao teh Gilead ram totouh a pha awh.
16 “This is what all of the Lord's people say, ‘What is this disloyal act you have committed against the God of Israel by building an altar for yourselves? How could you turn away from him now in such rebellion?
BAWIPA e tamimaya abuemlah koe lawk a thui e teh, nangmouh ni Cathut hah, na taran awh teh, thuengnae khoungroe na sak awh dawkvah, BAWIPA e hnuk na kâbang awh hoeh. Sahnin lam phen hanelah Isarelnaw e Cathut koe na yon teh bangtelae maw
17 Wasn't our sin at Peor enough? Even now we're still not clean from the plague that attacked the Lord's people.
Nangmouh ni Cathut e hnuk na kâbang awh hoeh, na phen awh han toe ti e, Peor e yon teh maimouh hanelah khout hoeh rah maw BAWIPA e tamimaya koe runae kalen a pha eiteh, sahnin totouh hote yon hah na panuek thai awh hoeh rah.
18 So why are you turning away from the Lord now? If you rebel against the Lord today, he will be angry with all of us tomorrow!
Nangmouh ni BAWIPA hah sahnin na taran teh, tangtho e hnin Isarel miphun tamimaya abuemlah koe a lungkhuek han toe.
19 But if you think your land is tainted then come over to the land of the Lord where the Tabernacle of the Lord is located and share some of our land with us. Just don't rebel against the Lord, or against us, by building for yourselves an altar other than the altar of the Lord our God.
Hatei nangmouh ni na tawn awh e talai hah thoung hoehpawiteh, BAWIPA ni a ma hanelah a la teh, lukkareiim onae talai koe lah rakat nateh kaimouh hoi cungtalah tawn e lah lat awh. Maimae BAWIPA Cathut e sathei thuengnae khoungroe laipalah, alouke sathei thuengnae khoungroe ma hanelah, sak e lahoi BAWIPA taran hanh awh. Kaimouh hai na taran hanh awh.
20 When Achan, son of Zerah, acted disloyally in taking consecrated things, didn't the whole of Israel suffer punishment? He wasn't the only one who died because of his sin!”
Zerah e capa Akhan ni thoebo e hno dawk a payon teh a lungkhueknae hah Isarel miphun, rangpuinaw e a lathueng vah a pha nahoehmaw Ahni ni a payon e yon dawk, ama buet touh dueng nahoeh telah ati awh.
21 Then the tribes of Reuben and Gad, and the half-tribe of Manasseh answered the Israelite leaders,
Hahoi teh, Reuben catoun, Gad catoun, Manasseh catoun tangawn ni Isarel miphun dawk tami thawng touh ka uk e kacuenaw koevah bout a dei pouh e teh,
22 “The Lord is God of gods, the Lord is God of gods, and he knows! May Israel also know! If we're in rebellion against God or being disloyal to him then kill us right now!
Cathutnaw e Cathut, cathutnaw e BAWIPA Cathut, Jehovah ni a panue, Isarel ni hai panuek naseh. BAWIPA koe taranthaw hanelah a kâcai awh teh, a hnukkâbang laipalah phen hanelah kaimanaw ni khoungroe ka sak awh katang pawiteh, sahnin pâhlung awh hanh lawih.
23 If our action of building an altar was to turn away from the Lord, or to use the altar to make burnt offerings or grain offerings or friendship offerings, then may the Lord punish us.
Hote thuengnae khoungroe van hmaisawi thuengnae sathei, tavai thuengnae, roum thuengnae, thueng hanelah kâcainae kaawm nakunghai BAWIPA ma roeroe ni pâphue lawiseh.
24 We did this because we were worried that in the future your descendants might say to ours, ‘What have you got to do with the Lord, the God of Israel?
Hmalae tueng dawk nangmae catounnaw ni, Oe Reuben catounnaw, Gad catounnaw nangmouh teh, Isarel miphunnaw e Cathut hoi bangtelamaw na kâkuet awh.
25 The Lord put a border—the Jordan River—between us and you, descendants of Reuben and Gad. You don't belong to the Lord.’ So your descendants might stop our descendants from worshiping the Lord.
BAWIPA ni kaimouh hoi nangmae rahak dawk kâkapeknae Jordan palang teh a ta toe. Nangmouh ni BAWIPA hoi khoeroe na kâkuen hoeh telah kaimae ca catounnaw koe na dei awh dawkvah, kaimae ca catounnaw ni BAWIPA taket laipalah khosak hanelah nangmae ca catounnaw ni sak awh langvaih tie hah puen hanelah ao dawkvah, hete hno teh ka sak awh toe nahoehmaw.
26 So we said to ourselves, ‘Let's build an altar, not for burnt offerings or for sacrifices,
Hatdawkvah maimouh ni sathei thuengnae khoungroe hah sak hanelah pathoup leih sei ati awh navah, hmaisawi thuengnae sathei hoi thueng hane na kâcai awh hoeh.
27 but as a witness between us and you, and for the generations that come after us, that we will come to worship the Lord in his presence with our burnt offerings, sacrifices, and friendship offerings.’ Then your descendants will not be able to say to ours in the future, ‘You don't belong to the Lord.’
Maimouh ni hmaisawi thuengnae sathei pueng hoi sathei e phung, roum thuengnae sathei aphunphun sak awh teh, BAWIPA e thaw hah a hmalah tawk hanelah, hmalae tueng dawk nangmae catounnaw ni nangmouh teh BAWIPA hoi khoeroe na kâkuen awh hoeh, telah maimae catounnaw koe a dei awh hoeh nahanelah, hete thuengnae khoungroe teh, kaimouh hoi nangmae rahak, kaimae ca catounnaw hoi nangmae ca catounnaw rahak kapanuekkhaikung lah ao nahanelah sak awh toe.
28 If they were to do so in the future, our descendants could reply, ‘Look at this copy of the Lord's altar which our forefathers made, not for burnt offerings or for sacrifices, but as a witness between us and you.’
Hmalae tueng dawk ahnimouh ni maimouh hoi maimae ca catounnaw koe hottelah dei pawiteh, maimouh ni maimae napanaw ni, hmaisawi thuengnae sathei thueng hanelah nahoeh. Maimouh hoi nangmae rahak dawk kapanuekkhaikung lah ao nahane, sak e BAWIPA e khoungroe hah khenhaw! telah bout dei thai nahanlah ka kâpan awh toe.
29 We would never think to rebel against the Lord or to turn away from him now by building an altar to make burnt offerings or grain offerings or sacrifices. The only altar of the Lord our God is the one stands in front of his Tabernacle.”
Lukkarei im hmalah kaawm e maimae Cathut e sathei thuengnae khoungroe laipalah, alouke sathei thuengnae khoungroe sak pawiteh, hmaisawi thuengnae sathei pueng hoi, sathei phun, tavai thuengnae thueng awh teh, hnukkâbang laipalah tarannae yon teh kaimouh hoi kâhlat lawiseh telah bout a dei awh.
30 When Phinehas and the Israelite leaders heard this from the tribes of Reuben and Gad, and the half-tribe of Manasseh they were delighted.
Vaihma Phinehas hoi tamimaya kahrawikungnaw, Isarel miphun dawk hoi tami 1,000 touh ka uk e kacuenaw ni, Reuben catoun, Gad catoun, Manasseh catounnaw ni a dei awh e lawk hah a thai awh torei teh a lung a kuep awh.
31 Phinehas replied to the tribes of Reuben and Gad, and the half-tribe of Manasseh, “Today we know that the Lord is with us because you have not acted disloyally in doing this. Now you have saved the Israelites from being punished by the Lord.”
Vaihma Eleazar e capa Phinehas ni hai nangmouh teh, BAWIPA koe na yon awh hoeh dawkvah, Bawipa ni kaimouh koe na okhainae hah sahnin maimouh ni panue awh toe. Nangmouh ni Isarel miphunnaw hah, Cathut e kut dawk hoi atuvah na hlout sak awh toe telah, Reuben catoun, Gad catoun, Manasseh catounnaw koe a dei pouh awh.
32 Then Phinehas and the Israelite leaders left the tribes of Reuben and Gad, and the half-tribe of Manasseh in the land of Gilead and returned to the land of Canaan to explain the situation to the Israelites.
Hahoi vaihma Eleazar e capa Phinehas hoi kahrawikungnaw ni Reuben catoun, Gad catounnaw a onae, Gilead ram hoi Isarelnaw a onae Kanaan ram lah bout a tho teh kamthang a thaisak awh.
33 The Israelites were pleased with the report and God blessed them. They didn't talk about going to war any more to destroy the land where the tribes of Reuben and Gad were living.
Isarel miphunnaw ni lunghawinae a tawn teh Cathut e pahrennae hah a pholen awh. Hathnukkhu hoi Reuben catoun, Gad catounnaw a onae ram hah thei hane, tuk hanelah noenae awm hoeh toe.
34 The tribes of Reuben and Gad called the altar, “Witness,” because they said, “It is a witness between us that the Lord is also our God.”
Reuben catoun, Gad catounnaw ni hai BAWIPA teh Cathut la ao tie hah, hete sathei thuengnae khoungroe teh, kaimae rahak dawkvah kapanuekkhaikung lah awm seh telah a titeh, hote khoungroe teh, Ed telah a min a phung awh.
