Joshua 6
1 Jericho's gates were shut and barred because of the Israelites. Nobody was allowed in or out.
Isarel miphunnaw kecu dawk Jeriko khopui teh khik a kâkhan awh teh, ka tâcawt e, ka kâen e, buet touh hai awm hoeh.
2 But the Lord told Joshua, “I'm handing over the city of Jericho to you, along with its king and its army of warriors.
Hat toteh, BAWIPA Cathut ni khenhaw! Jeriko khopui, Jeriko siangpahrang hoi athakaawme ransa pueng teh nange kut dawk na poe toe.
3 March around the city with your armed men once a day for six days.
Hatdawkvah khopui teh, na lawngven awh han Isarel ransanaw abuemlah ni hnin taruk touh thung na lawngven awh han.
4 Seven priests are to go ahead of the Ark, each carrying a ram's horn. On the seventh day, march seven times around the city, with the priests blowing their rams' horns.
Vaihma sari touh ni thingkong hmalah Jubili mongka sari touh a sin awh han. Hnin sari hnin nah vai sari touh khopui lawngven vaiteh, vaihmanaw ni mongka teh a ueng awh han.
5 When you hear a long blast on the rams' horns, everyone shall give a really loud shout. The city walls will collapse, and every man can go right in.”
Jubili mongka a rui kasawlah a ueng awh vaiteh, mongka lawk na thai awh torei tami pueng ni kacaipounglah a hram awh han. Khopui e rapan teh abuemlah koung a tip han. Hahoi taminaw ni kalancalah na kamyun awh han telah Joshua koe atipouh.
6 So Joshua, son of Nun, sent for the priests, and told them, “Pick up the Ark of Agreement, and have seven priests carry seven rams' horns and go ahead of the Ark of the Lord.”
Nun e capa Joshua ni vaihmanaw a kaw teh, nangmouh ni lawkkam thingkong hah na kâkayawt awh vaiteh, BAWIPA e thingkong hmalah vaihma sari touh ni Jubili mongka sari touh e hah na sin awh han.
7 Then he told the people, “Move out! March around the city with the armed men up front ahead of the Ark of the Lord!”
Taminaw koehoi, nangmouh ni na cei awh vaiteh, khopui hah lawngven awh. Senehmaica kapatuemnaw ni BAWIPA e thingkong hmalah cet awh telah atipouh.
8 When Joshua finished speaking to the people, the seven priests carrying the seven rams' horns in the presence of the Lord started out, blowing the horns, with the Ark following behind.
Joshua ni taminaw koe lawk a thui hnukkhu, Jubili mongka sari touh ka sin e vaihma sari touh ni BAWIPA e hmalah mongka ueng na laihoi a cei awh. BAWIPA e lawkkam thingkong teh, ahnimae hnukkhu lah a kâbang awh.
9 Some of the armed men marched ahead of the priests blowing the horns, while some followed the Ark, the horns being blown continually.
Mongka ka ueng e vaihmanaw hmalah, Senehmaica kapatuemnaw ni a cei awh teh, vaihmanaw ni mongka ueng na laihoi a cei awh navah, hnuk lae ransanaw ni thingkong hnuklah a kâbang awh.
10 However, Joshua ordered them, “Don't shout, don't even talk. Don't say anything until I tell you all to shout—then shout!”
Joshua ni nangmouh teh, kai ni hram hanelah lawk na thui e hnin a pha hoehnahlan, na hram awh mahoeh. A pawlawk buet touh hai na tho sak awh mahoeh. Lawkkam touh hai na tho awh mahoeh. Hote a hnin a pha torei na hram awh han telah lawk na thui awh toe.
11 So the Ark of the Lord was carried around the city, circling it once. Then they returned to the camp and spent the night there.
Hottelah BAWIPA Cathut e thingkong teh khopui vai touh a lawngven awh hnukkhu hoi rim thung bout a ban awh teh, rum touh a loum sak awh.
12 Joshua got up early in the morning, and the priests picked up the Ark of the Lord.
Amom Joshua ni a thaw teh, vaihmanaw ni BAWIPA e thingkong hah a hrawm sak.
13 The seven priests with the seven rams' horns went ahead of the Ark of the Lord, blowing the horns. The armed men went before them and behind the Ark of the Lord, the horns being blown continually.
BAWIPA e thingkong hmalah Jubili mongka sari touh ka sin e vaihmanaw sari touh ni pou a cei awh na laihoi mongka a ueng awh. Senehmaica kapatuemnaw ni ahnimae hmalah a cei awh teh, vaihmanaw ni mongka ueng na laihoi a cei awh nah vah, hnuk lae ransanaw teh, BAWIPA e thingkong hnukkhu lah a kâbang awh.
14 So on the second day they marched around the city, circling it once, and returned to the camp. They did this for a total of six days.
A pahni hnin khopui vai touh a lawngven awh hoi rim koe lah bout a ban awh. Hottelah hnin taruk thung a sak awh.
15 On the seventh day they got up at dawn and marched around the city in the usual way, except that this day they circled the city seven times.
Asari hnin amom khodai tahma vah, a thaw awh teh, ahmoun e patetlah vai sari totouh khopui hah a lawngven awh. Hot hnin teh vai sari touh khopui a lawngven awh.
16 The seventh time around when the priests blew the horns, Joshua told the people, “Shout! For today the Lord has given the city to you!
Apa sari hnin teh, vaihmanaw ni mongka a ueng torei teh, Joshua ni hram awh leih, BAWIPA ni khopui nangmouh koe na poe awh han toe.
17 The city and everything in it is to be set apart for the Lord and destroyed. Only Rahab the prostitute and all those with her in her house shall be spared, because she hid the spies we sent.
Khopui hoi khopui thung kaawm e pueng abuemlah thoebo vaiteh BAWIPA koe poe han toe. Hateiteh tak kâyawt e Rahab teh maimouh ni patoun awh e patounenaw hah a hro dawkvah, ahni hoi a imthungkhu abuemlah a hringnae na hlout sak awh han.
18 But stay away from everything set apart for the Lord, for if you were to take anything you too would be liable to be destroyed, and you would also bring disaster on the camp of Israel.
Nangmouh ni thoebo e hnonaw hah kâhruetcuet laihoi roun awh. Hote hnonaw hah na lat awh pawiteh, nangmouh dawk hai, Isarel ransa dawk hai, thoebo e lah awm vaiteh a rucatnae na poe vaih tie lakueng hanelah ao.
19 All the silver and the gold, and everything made of bronze and iron, are holy to the Lord and they must be placed in the Lord's treasury.”
Sui, Ngun, hoi rahum, sumpai abuemlah BAWIPA hanelah thoung sak awh nateh, BAWIPA e hnopai thung vah na hruek awh han telah a taminaw koe Joshua ni atipouh.
20 So as soon as they heard the sound of the horns, the people gave a loud shout, and the city walls collapsed. The men went in right away and captured the city.
Hot patetvanlah mongka a ueng awh teh, taminaw ni a hram awh. Mongka lawk a thai awh nah kacaipounglah a hram awh torei teh, khopui kalupnae rapan teh, koung a tip, khopui thung a kâen sin awh teh, khopui teh a la awh.
21 They destroyed everything in the city: men and women, young and old, cattle, sheep, and donkeys, all were killed by the sword.
Khopui thung kaawm e tongpa, napui, kacue, kanaw, Tu, Maito, La kaawm e pueng tahloi hoi koung a tâtueng awh.
22 Joshua had told the two men who had gone to explore the land, “Go to the house of Rahab the prostitute and bring her out together with all her family, as you promised.”
Hote ram ka tuet e tami roi koe, Joshua ni nangmouh roi ni thoe na bo e patetlah kâyawt e napui im dawk cet nateh, ahni khuehoi ahni koe kaawm e abuemlah tâcawtkhai awh, atipouh.
23 So the spies went and brought out Rahab, her father and mother, and all who were with her. They brought out the whole family and took them to a place near the Israelite camp.
Hatdawkvah, ka tuet roi e ni a kâen roi teh, Rahab hoi a manu, a napa, a thangroi naw, ahni koe kaawm e abuemlah hoi amae a hmaunawngha pueng hai a tâco sak teh, Isarelnaw e rim alawilah ao sak.
24 Then the Israelites burned down the city and everything in it, except for the silver and the gold, and everything made of bronze and iron, which they placed in the treasury of the Lord's house.
Khopui khuehoi khopui thung kaawm e abuemlah hmai a sawi awh. Hateiteh, Sui, Ngun, hoi rahum e hno, sumpainaw hai, BAWIPA e hno kuemnae dawk a hruek awh.
25 Joshua spared Rahab the prostitute and her family because she hid the men Joshua had sent to spy out Jericho. And she lives among the Israelites to this day.
Joshua ni tak kâyawt e Rahab hoi amae phun, Ama koe kaawm e abuemlah hring hloutnae a poe teh, ahni teh Isarel miphun dawkvah sahnin totouh ao. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Jeriko khopui ka tuet hane Joshua e patounenaw hah a hro dawk doeh.
26 At that time Joshua declared a curse, saying: “Cursed before the Lord is anyone who attempts to rebuild this city of Jericho. He lays its foundation at the cost of his firstborn son; he sets up its gates at the cost of his youngest son.”
Hahoi Joshua ni apihai yah Jeriko khopui bout kangdout sak e teh, BAWIPA hmalah, thoebo e tami lah awm seh. Camin se nah adu a ung vaiteh, cahnoung se nah kho longkhanaw hah sak naseh, telah thoe a bo.
27 So the Lord was with Joshua, and his fame spread throughout the land.
Hottelah BAWIPA ni Joshua hoi rei ao teh, ahnie min teh ram pueng dawk a kamthang.
