< Joshua 9 >

1 And when all the Kings that were beyonde Iorden, in the mountaines and in the valleis, and by all the coastes of the great Sea ouer against Lebanon (as the Hittites, and the Amorites, the Canaanites, the Perizzites, the Hiuites, and the Iebusites) heard thereof,
Tun Jordan vadung lhumlam gamma lenghon thilsoh hohi ajatauvin ahi. Hitehochu Hit mite, Amor mite, Canaan mite, Perizz mite, Jebus mite lengho, lhumlam molbulla chengho leh twikhanglen pang Lebanon molho changeija chengho ahiuve.
2 They gathered themselues together, to fight against Ioshua, and against Israel with one accord.
Hiche lengho hin lungkhattah’a athao jekhomma Joshua leh Israel mite hi kisatpi dingin akiloikhommun ahi.
3 But the inhabitants of Gibeon heard what Ioshua had done vnto Iericho, and to Ai.
Ahinlah Gibon miten Joshua’n Jericho leh Ai abolnahi ahetphatnun,
4 And therefore they wrought craftily: for they went, and fayned themselues ambassadours, and tooke olde sackes vpon their asses, and olde bottels for wine, both rent and bound vp,
Amaho kihuhdohna dingin lungthim chomkhat agongtauvin ahi. Amahon Joshua komma palai asol’uvin, sakhao luile asesa, jupeng luile akibehthu ho, sangan chunga aheng’un,
5 And olde shoes and clouted vpon their feete: also the raiment vpon them was old, and all their prouision of bread was dried, and mouled.
Amahon von sesa akivonnun, ponsesa akisillun, kengchot kibehthu akichotnun chuleh nehdinga akipoh’u changlhah chu agopsa le amonsa ahi.
6 So they came vnto Ioshua into the hoste to Gilgal, and said vnto him, and vnto the men of Israel, Wee be come from a farre countrey: nowe therefore make a league with vs.
Amaho Gilgalla Israelte ngahmunna ahunglhun phatnun Joshua komma chun, “Keiho nangmatoh kichamna thulhuh sem dinga kholgamlatah’a konna hung kahiuve” atiuve.
7 Then the men of Israel said vnto the Hiuites, It may be that thou dwellest among vs, how then can I make a league with thee?
Israelten, hiche Hivi miteho kommachun adonbutnun, “Nangho hi anaivella chengmi nahi nahilouvu keihon iti kahet diuham? Anaivella cheng nahikhah uleh keihon nangho toh kichamna thulhuh kaneithei loudiu ahi” atiuve.
8 And they said vnto Ioshua, We are thy seruants. Then Ioshua saide vnto them, Who are ye? and whence come ye?
Amahon, “Keiho hi nasohte kahiuve” tin adonbutnun ahi. Ahin Joshua’n, “Nangho koi nahiuva, hoiya konna hung nahiuham?”ati.
9 And they answered him, From a very farre countrey thy seruants are come for the Name of the Lord thy God: for we haue heard his fame and all that he hath done in Egypt,
Amahon adonbutnun, “Nasohte hi kachenao mun gamlatah’a konna hung kahiuve. Keihon na Pakai na Pathennu thaneidan Egypt gamma anatoh ho kanajauvin ahi.
10 And all that he hath done to the two Kings of the Amorites that were beyonde Iorden, to Sihon King of Heshbon, and to Og King of Bashan, which were at Ashtaroth.
Keihon Jordan solama Amor lengteni leh Heshbon lengpa Sihon le Ashtarothna um Bashan lengpa Og chunga anatoh ho kajauvin ahi.
11 Wherefore our elders, and all the inhabitants of our countrey spake to vs, saying, Take vitailes with you for the iourney, and go to meete them, and say vnto them, Wee are your seruants: now therefore make ye a league with vs.
Hijeh chun kaupa houle kamipite jousen eihin thulhah’un, kholgamla tah jotna dingin nehle chah kipoh’un, Israel mipite chu gakimupiuvin lang hitihin seijun, ‘keiho nasohte kahiuve keihotoh kitepna neineipiuvin,’ tin gaseijun” atiuve.
12 This our bread we tooke it hote with vs for vittailes out of our houses, the day we departed to come vnto you: but nowe beholde, it is dried, and it is mouled.
“Hiche kachanglhah houhi kain’uva konna kahung kipatdoh uva chu tapkonga konna sapeh’a kahinpoh’u ahin tuhin agobetnin a-ap tan ahin,
13 Also these bottels of wine which we filled, were newe, and lo, they be rent, and these our garments and our shooes are olde, by reason of the exceeding great iourney.
Hiche jupengho jonghi kahinthal dimmuva chu thahleh’a ahin, tuhin aluijin a-ehgam tai. Chuleh kavon uleh kakengkoh’u jonghi kalamsao jotnauva konna luigamma ahitai” atiuve.
14 And the men accepted their tale concerning their vittailes, and counselled not with the mouth of the Lord.
Hitichun Israelten aneh achah’u chu anakholchil’un, ahinlah Pakai dohna ananei pouve.
15 So Ioshua made peace with them, and made a league with them, that he would suffer them to liue: also the Princes of the Congregation sware vnto them.
Hiche jouchun Joshua in amaho chutoh an ananeipi-in amaho chu anahinghoi tan ahi, khopi sunga alamkai houvin jong hiche kinoptona chu kihahselnan anasudetnun ahi.
16 But at the end of three dayes, after they had made a league with them, they heard that they were their neighbours, and that they dwelt among them.
Hiche kitepna aneiyu nithum jouvin hiche miteho hi akomchauva chenga ahibouvui ti ahedoh tauvin ahi.
17 And the children of Israel tooke their iourney, and came vnto their cities the third day, and their cities were Gibeon, and Chephirah, and Beeroth and Kiriath-iearim.
Israelte chu akholtoh dingin acheuvin nithum sungin akhopi houvachun agalhung tauve. Hiche khopiho chu Gibeon, Kephirah, Beeroth, chule Kiriath-Jearim ahiuve.
18 And the children of Israel slewe them not, because the Princes of the Congregation had sworne vnto them by the Lord God of Israel: wherefore all the Congregation murmured against the Princes.
Ahinlah Israelten khopiho chu anokhum tapouvin ahi, ajeh chu Israel lamkaiten, Pakai Israel Pathen min panna kitepna ananeiju ahitai. Israel mipite chu, alamkai houvin chutobang kitepna chu anabol jeh’un achunguvah anaphunnun ahi.
19 Then all the Princes said vnto all the Congregation, We haue sworne vnto them by the Lord God of Israel: nowe therefore we may not touch them.
Ahinlah alamkai houvin anadonbutnun “Eihon Pakai Israel Pathen minna kihahselna inaneinao ahitah jeh’a amaho chu itohkhah theiloudiu ahitai,
20 But this we wil doe to them, and let them liue, least the wrath be vpon vs because of the othe which we sware vnto them.
Eihon amaho chu ihinghoidiu ahitai, ajeh chu eihon ikitepnao isuhkeh uleh Pathen lunghanna ichung uva chuding ahi,
21 And the Princes sayd vnto them againe, Let them liue, but they shall hewe wood, and drawe water vnto all the Congregation, as the Princes appoint them.
Amaho chu ihinghoidiu ahitai” atiuve. Hitichun amahon Israel lamkaiten athupeh bangun akhopi sunga tuikhai dingleh thingpodin amangcha tauvin ahi.
22 Ioshua then called them, and talked with them, and sayd, Wherefore haue ye beguiled vs, saying, We are very farre from you, when ye dwel among vs?
Joshua’n Gibeon miho chu akoukhommin hitin aseije, “Nanghon ipi dinga neijoulhep uham? Nangho hila kalah uva chenga nahibouvun, ipi dinga gamlatah’a cheng kahiuve natiuham?
23 Now therefore ye are cursed, and there shall none of you be freed from being bondmen, and hewers of wood, and drawers of water for the house of my God.
Nangho hi sapset chang nahitauvin, hijeh’a chu tuapat’a nangho hi ka Pathennu in na dinga thingchomle tuikhaija napan jengdiu ahitai,” atipeh’in ahi.
24 And they answered Ioshua, and sayd, Because it was tolde thy seruants, that the Lord thy God had commanded his seruant Moses to giue you all the land, and to destroy all the inhabitants of the land out of your sight, therefore we were exceeding sore afraid for our liues at the presence of you, and haue done this thing:
Amahon adonbutnun, “Pakai na Pathennun Mose anathupeh dungjuija hiche gamhi nangho napeh uva chule agamsung mite jouse hi nathagam sohkeidiu ahi ti nasohte keihon kanajauvin ahi. Hijeh chun keihon nangho hi kana kichalheh jengun ahileh hitiahi kanabollu ahi,” atiuve.
25 And beholde nowe, we are in thine hand: doe as it seemeth good and right in thine eyes to doe vnto vs.
“Tun keiho hi nangho khutna um kahitauve, hijeh chun nadeidan dannin neiboltauvin,” ati.
26 Euen so did he vnto them, and deliuered them out of the hand of the children of Israel, that they slewe them not.
Hitichun, Israelten amaho atha diu chu Joshua’n anajanom tapon ahi.
27 And Ioshua appointed them that same day to be hewers of wood, and drawers of water for the Congregation, and for the altar of the Lord vnto this day, in the place which he should chuse.
Ahin hiche nikho chun aman Gibeon mite chu Isael mipite le Pathennin adeinamun munna a Maicham semna ding tuikhai leh thingchommin anapansah tauvin ahi. Hichehi tuni geija ahintoh jingu ahi.
