Numbers 32
1 The tribes of Reuben and Gad had large numbers of livestock and saw that the land of Jazer and Gilead was a good place to rear them.
Reuben hoi Gad miphunnaw ni saring moi a tawn awh teh, Jazer ram hoi Gilead ram a hmu awh toteh, a hmuen teh saring o nahan ahawipoung ati awh.
2 So they came to Moses, Eleazar the priest, and the Israelite leaders and said,
Hothateh, Gad, hoi Reuben catounnaw ni Mosi hoi Eleazar maya kahrawikungnaw hah a pato awh teh,
3 “The towns of Ataroth, Dibon, Jazer, Nimrah, Heshbon, Elealeh, Sebam, Nebo, and Beon,
Isarelnaw hmalah, BAWIPA ni a ta e ram Ataroth, Dibon, Jazer, Nimrah, Heshbon, Elealeh, Sebam, Nebo hoi Beon teh,
4 which the Lord conquered in full view of the Israelites, are well-suited for the livestock that we your servants own.”
saring pâ nahanlah kahawipoung e ram lah ao teh, na sannaw hai saring ka tawn awh.
5 They continued, “Please respond to our request favorably: give us this land. Don't make us cross the Jordan.”
Hatdawkvah na hnâ bawt pawiteh, hete ram heh coe hanlah na poe awh loe. Jordan namran hrumhram na takhangkhai awh hanh telah ati awh.
6 In reply Moses asked the tribes of Gad and Reuben, “Are you expecting your brothers to go and fight while you just sit here?
Mosi ni Gad hoi Reuben catounnaw koevah, na hmaunawnghanaw tarantuknae koe a cei vaiteh, nangmanaw teh hi vah sut na o awh han na maw.
7 Why discourage the Israelites from crossing into the country that the Lord has given them?
Bangkongmaw, BAWIPA ni na poe awh e ram dawk kâen hanlah Isarel catounnaw ni na lungthin thung na kâhnawn awh.
8 This is just what your fathers did when I sent them out from Kadesh-barnea to explore the land.
Kadeshbarnea hoi ram tuet hanlah na patoun awh navah, hettelah na mintoenaw ni ati awh toe.
9 After your fathers traveled up the valley of Eshcol and explored the land, they discouraged the Israelites, persuading them not to enter the country that the Lord had given them.
Eshkol ravo koe a pha awh navah, ram teh a hmu awh. BAWIPA ni na poe e ram kâen hoeh hanlah Isarelnaw a lungthin a kamlang sak awh.
10 As a result, they made the Lord very angry that day, and he swore this oath,
Hote hno niyah, BAWIPA lung a kâan sak teh,
11 ‘Not a single one of those I saved from Egypt who is twenty years old or older will ever see the land I promised with an oath to give to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, because they were not completely committed to me—
Izip ram hoi ka tâcawt e kum 20 lathueng pueng ni Abraham hoi Isak hoi Jakop tinaw koe thoekâbo hoi ka poe e ram teh, apinihai hmawt mahoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, kai hnukkâbang katang awh hoeh telah thoe a kâbo awh.
12 no one except Caleb, son of Jephunneh, the Kenizzite, and Joshua, son of Nun, because they were completely committed to me.’
Keniz tami Jephunneh capa Kaleb hoi Nun capa Joshua teh BAWIPA hnuk a kâbang roi.
13 The Lord was angry with Israel, and made them wander around in the desert for forty years, until the whole generation who had done evil in his sight had died.
Isarelnaw koe BAWIPA a lung a kâan teh BAWIPA mithmu vah hno kahawihoehe kasaknaw e se pueng a kahma awh hoehroukrak kahrawngum vah kum 40 touh a kâva sak.
14 Now look at you, you brood of sinners who have come to take your fathers' place to make the Lord even angrier with Israel!
Khenhaw! Isarelnaw koe BAWIPA lungkhueknae takikathopoung e hah bout thapsin hanlah nangmouh sekatha tamikayonnaw ni mintoenaw yueng lah na kâsak awh.
15 If you give up following him, he will abandon these people in the desert once again, and their deaths will be your fault!”
Bangtelamaw ahni hnukkâbang laipalah na awm pawiteh hete kahrawngum vah bout na o sak awh vaiteh, hete tamimaya heh kahmasak han telah atipouh.
16 Then the tribes of Gad and Reuben came to Moses and told him, “We would plan to build stone walls to keep our livestock safe and towns for our children.
Hahoi rek a hnai awh teh, ahni koe awi hivah saringnaw hoi tuhunaw hanlah a im sak pouh vaiteh, canaw hanlah khothawng awh han,
17 But we will still get ourselves ready for battle, and we will be prepared to lead the Israelites until they can safely occupy their land. In the meantime, our children will stay behind, living in the fortified towns to protect them from the local people.
hatei, kaimanaw teh, o awh nahane hmuen koe pha hoehroukrak, Isarel catounnaw hmalah cei hanelah puengcang coungkacoe kâmahrawk awh han, hete ram taminaw kecu dawk, canaw heh rapan ka tawn e kho dawk o sak awh han.
18 We won't return to our homes until every Israelite is in possession of their allotted land.
Isarel catounnaw ni a coe awh hane kawi hmuen be a coe hoehroukrak, ma im lah na ban awh mahoeh.
19 However, we won't own any land on the other side of the Jordan because we've received this land to own on this eastern side of the Jordan.”
Bangtelamaw tetpawiteh, coe hane kawi teh, hi namran lah Jordan kanîtholah a tho dawkvah, Jordan namran hoi ahlawilae teh coekhai awh han telah ati.
20 Moses responded, “If this is what you will actually do, if you will get yourselves ready for battle under the Lord's direction,
Mosi ni hot patetlah na sak awh teh, tarantuk nah koevah, BAWIPA hmalah cei hanlah na kamthoup awh teh,
21 and if all your troops cross the Jordan with the Lord until he has driven out his enemies ahead of him,
a hmalah a tarannaw a pâlei teh, BAWIPA hmalah ram na tâ awh hoehroukrak, nangmouh rahak puengcang kâmahrawk e naw pueng ni, BAWIPA hmalah Jordan be na raka awh pawiteh, a hnuk bout na kâbang awh vaiteh,
22 then once the country is conquered with the Lord's help then you may return, and you will have fulfilled your obligations to the Lord and to Israel. You will own this land, granted to you by the Lord.
BAWIPA lathueng hoi Isarelnaw lathueng vah, yonpen lah na awm awh mahoeh. Hottelah ram te BAWIPA hmalah na coe awh han.
23 But if you fail to do this, you will clearly be sinning against the Lord, and the consequences of your sin will catch up with you.
Hatei hottelah na sak awh hoehpawiteh, khenhaw!, BAWIPA koevah na yon e lah awm vaiteh, na yonnae na hmu awh roeroe han tie hah panuek awh.
24 Go ahead and build towns for your children and stone walls for your flocks, but make sure you do what you've promised!”
Na camonaw hanlah khothawng awh nateh, na tunaw hanlah im sak pouh awh telah ati.
25 The tribes of Gad and Reuben promised Moses, “Sir, we your servants will do just as you have ordered.
Hottelah Gad hoi Reuben catounnaw ni Mosi koevah, na sannaw ni mintoenaw e kâpoelawk patetlah ka sak han.
26 Our wives and children, our livestock and all our animals, will all remain here in the towns of Gilead.
Ka yunaw hoi camonaw hoi tuhunaw hoi saringhunaw pueng teh, Gileadnaw e khoram dawk ao han.
27 But we your servants are ready for battle, and all our troops will cross over to fight with the Lord's help, just as you have said, sir.”
Hatei, na sannaw tarantuk hanlah, puengcang hoi kâmahrawknaw pueng ni bawipa ni a dei pouh telah BAWIPA hmalah ka luen van awh han telah ati awh.
28 Moses gave the following instructions about them to Eleazar the priest, to Joshua, son of Nun, and to the family leaders of the tribes of Israel.
Mosi ni ahnimouh kong kecu dawk vaihma Eleazar hoi Nun capa Joshua hoi Isarel miphun imthung kahrawikungnaw hah kâ a poe.
29 Moses told them, “If the tribes of Gadites and Reuben cross the Jordan with you, with all their troops ready for battle with the Lord's help, and the land is conquered as you advance, then give them the land of Gilead to own.
Mosi ni ahnimouh koe Gad canaw hoi Reuben canaw tarantuknae puengcang kâmahrawk e pueng ni, BAWIPA hmalah Jordan tui a rakakhai han. Ram teh na la hnukkhu, Gilead ram teh a coe awh hanlah na poe awh han.
30 But if they don't get themselves ready for battle and cross over with you, then they must accept their allotted land among you in the country of Canaan.”
Hatei puengcang kâmahrawk hoi na cetkhai awh hoehpawiteh, Kanaan ram vah nangmouh koe a bawk van han telah ati.
31 The tribes of Gad and Reuben responded, “We will do just as the Lord has told us, your servants.
Hahoi Gad canaw hoi Reuben canaw ni na sannaw koevah, BAWIPA ni a dei e patetlah ka sak han.
32 We will cross over and enter the country of Canaan ready for battle with the Lord's help, so that we may have our allotted share of land on this side of the Jordan.”
Puengcang kâmahrawk hoi BAWIPA hmalah, Kanaan ram takhang vaiteh kâen awh han. Hatei, coe awh hane ram teh, Jordan namran lah doeh pou coe awh ti telah a pathung awh.
33 So Moses gave to the tribes of Gad and Reubenites and the half-tribe of Manasseh, son of Joseph, the kingdom of Sihon, king of the Amorites, and the kingdom of Og, king of Bashan. This land included its towns and their surrounding area.
Mosi ni Gad catounnaw hoi Reuben catounnaw hah Joseph capa Manasseh miphun tangawn teh, Amor siangpahrang Sihon uknaeram hoi Bashan siangpahrang, Og uknaeram kaawm e khonaw pueng hoi, a tengpam khotenaw pueng hoi koung a poe awh.
34 The people of Gad rebuilt Dibon, Ataroth, Aroer,
Gad catounnaw ni Dibon, Ataroth hoi Aroer,
35 Atroth-shophan, Jazer, Jogbehah,
Aroth-shonphan, Jazer hoi Jobehah,
36 Beth-nimrah, and Beth-haran as fortified towns, and they built stone walls for their flocks.
Bethnimrah hoi Bethharan kho a thawng awh teh, rapan ka tawn e khopui hoi tu imnaw a sak awh.
37 The people of Reuben rebuilt Heshbon, Elealeh, Kiriathaim,
Reuben catounnaw ni Heshbon, Elealeh hoi Kiriathaim,
38 as well as Nebo and Baal-meon (changing their names), and Sibmah. In fact they renamed those towns they rebuilt.
Nebo, Baalmeon, Sibmah hah a thawng awh. Hote kho a thawng awh e hah min louk lah a phung awh
39 The descendants of Machir, son of Manasseh, attacked Gilead and captured it. They drove out the Amorites who were living there.
Manasseh capa Makhir catounnaw teh Gilead ram a cei awh teh a la awh. Amornaw haw kaawm pueng teh be a lawp awh.
40 So Moses gave Gilead to the family of Machir, son of Manasseh, and they settled there.
Hatdawkvah, Mosi ni Gilead ram teh Manasseh capa Makhir koe a poe teh hawvah khosak awh.
41 Jair, a descendant of Manasseh, attacked their villages and captured them. He named them the Villages of Jair.
Manasseh capa Jair ni a cei teh khotenaw hah a la dawkvah, hotnaw hah Jair telah a phung awh.
42 Nobah attacked Kenath and captured it, along with its villages. He named it Nobah after himself.
Nobah hai a cei teh, Kenath khotenaw a la teh, a min lah Nabah telah a phung awh.
