Judges 21
1 Moreouer, the men of Israel sware in Mizpeh, saying, None of vs shall giue his daughter vnto the Beniamites to wyfe.
Isarelnaw ni Mizpah vah, maimouh thung dawk hoi apihai Benjaminnaw ni a yu lah lat hanh seh telah lawkkamnae a sak awh.
2 And the people came vnto ye house of God and abode there till euen before God, and lift vp their voyces, and wept with great lamentation,
Tamimaya teh, Bethel vah a cei awh teh, Cathut hmalah tangmin totouh a tahung awh. Puenghoi a hram awh teh a ka awh.
3 And sayde, O Lord God of Israel, why is this come to passe in Israel, that this day one tribe of Israel should want?
Ahnimouh ni Oe BAWIPA, Isarelnaw e Cathut, bang dawk maw Isarelnaw rahak vah het patet e hno heh ao. Sahnin vah, Isarelnaw dawkvah, miphun buet touh a vout. Bang kecu dawk vaimoe telah ati awh.
4 And on the morow the people rose vp and made there an altar, and offred burnt offrings and peace offrings.
Hahoi teh, hettelah doeh. Atangtho teh tamimaya ni amom a tho awh teh, hawvah, bawknae khoungroe a sak awh. Hmaisawi thuengnae hoi lungmawng thuengnae a poe awh.
5 Then the children of Israel said, Who is he among all the tribes of Israel, that came not vp with the Congregation vnto the Lord? for they had made a great othe concerning him that came not vp to the Lord to Mizpeh, saying, Let him die the death.
Isarelnaw ni, Isarel miphunnaw pueng thung dawk, BAWIPA koe ka kamkhueng hoeh e apimaw kaawm telah atipouh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Mizpah vah BAWIPA koe ka cet hoeh e naw pueng teh, thei han telah lawkkamnae kalenpoung a sak awh toe.
6 And the children of Israel were sory for Beniamin their brother, and said, There is one tribe cut off from Israel this day.
Hahoi Isarelnaw pueng ni, a hmaunawngha Benjaminnaw koe pankângai awh leih. Sahnin Isarelnaw thung dawk hoi miphun buet touh pahma awh toe.
7 How shall we do for wiues to them that remaine, seeing we haue sworne by the Lord, that we will not giue them of our daughters to wiues?
Kaawm rae thung dawk hoi a yu nahanelah bangtelamaw ti awh han. Maimae canunaw heh a yu lah la sak hoeh hanelah BAWIPA koe thoebo hoi lawk yo bout kam awh toe telah ati awh.
8 Also they saide, Is there any of the tribes of Israel that came not vp to Mizpeh to the Lord? and beholde, there came none of Iabesh Gilead vnto the hoste and to the Congregation.
Ahnimouh ni Isarel miphun thung hoi bang miphun maw Mizpah BAWIPA koe ka tho hoeh vaw telah ati. Hahoi khenhaw! ka kamkhuengnaw onae hmuen koe Jabesgileadnaw hah buet touh hai awm hoeh bo.
9 For when the people were vewed; beholde, none of the inhabitants of Iabesh Gilead were there.
Taminaw hah a parei awh navah, Jabesgilead ram kaawm e buet touh hai awm hoeh.
10 Therefore the Congregation sent thither twelue thousande men of the most valiant, and commanded them, saying, Goe, and smite the inhabitants of Iabesh Gilead with the edge of the sword, both women, and children.
Hahoi kamkhuengnaw ni a tarankahawi e tami 12000 touh a patoun awh. Cet nateh, Jabeshgilead ram dawk e kaawmnaw hah napui camo hai abuemlah tahloi hoi thet awh.
11 And this is it that ye shall do: ye shall vtterly destroye all the males and all the women that haue lien by men.
Na sak awh hane dawkvah, hettelah han. Tongpanaw hoi napuinaw ni a ikhai tangcoung e naw pueng hah na thei awh han telah kâ a poe awh.
12 And they found among the inhabitants of Iabesh Gilead foure hundreth maides, virgins that had knowne no man by lying with any male: and they brought them vnto the hoste to Shiloh, which is in the land of Canaan.
Hahoi Jabeshgilead ram e kaawmnaw thung dawk, tangla 400 touh, tongpa ni a ikhai hoeh rae a pâphawng awh. Hat torei teh, a onae Shiloh be a thokhai awh. Hot teh Kanaan ram doeh.
13 Then the whole Congregation sent and spake with the children of Beniamin that were in the rocke of Rimmon, and called peaceably vnto them:
Hahoi kamkhuengnaw pueng ni tami a tha awh teh, Rimmon talung koe kaawm e Benjaminnaw hah a patopahlai awh teh, ahnimouh koe roumnae lawk a dei pouh awh.
14 And Beniamin came againe at that time, and they gaue them wiues which they had saued aliue of the women of Iabesh Gilead: but they had not so ynough for them.
Telah ati awh tahma vah, Benjaminnaw tang a ban awh teh, Jabesgilead napui a hlung awh e naw hah a poe awh. Hatei napuinaw khout hoeh rah.
15 And the people were sorie for Beniamin, because the Lord had made a breach in the tribes of Israel.
Hahoi tamimaya teh, Benjamin kecu dawk pankângai awh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA ni Isarel miphun thung ruengruengtinae a pha sak dawkvah.
16 Therefore the Elders of the Congregation said, How shall we doe for wiues to the remnant? for the women of Beniamin are destroyed.
Hottelah kamkhueng e maya a lungkahanaw ni ka hring e naw a yu hane teh, bangtelamaw ti han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Benjaminnaw thung dawk napuinaw heh koung bout thei pouh awh toe telah ati awh.
17 And they saide, there must be an inheritance for them that be escaped of Beniamin, that a tribe be not destroyed out of Israel.
Ahnimouh ni Isarel dawk hoi miphun a kahma hoeh nahanelah, Benjaminnaw la kaawmnaw heh, bangtelamaw râw tawn sak thai han.
18 Howbeit we may not giue them wiues of our daughters: for the childre of Israel had sworne, saying, Cursed be he that giueth a wise to Beniamin.
Maimae canunaw hai a yu lah lat thai awh hoeh ati awh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Isarelnaw ni tami bangpatet hai, Benjaminnaw a yu lah ka lat e teh, thoebonae awm seh telah lawk bout kâkam toe.
19 Therefore they said, Beholde, there is a feast of the Lord euery yere in Shiloh in a place, which is on the Northside of Beth-el, and on the Eastside of the way that goeth vp from Beth-el to Shechem, and on the South of Lebonah.
Ahnimouh ni khenhaw. Bethel ceinae lam, kanîtholah, Lebanon monsom kaawm e Shiloh vah, kum tangkuem BAWIPA hanlah pawi ouk ao telah ati awh.
20 Therefore they commanded the children of Beniamin, saying, Goe, and lye in waite in the vineyardes.
Hatdawkvah, ahnimouh ni, Benjaminnaw koevah, cet awh nateh, misur takha koe arulahoi pawm awh.
21 And when ye see that the daughters of Shiloh come out to dance in dances, then come ye out of the vineyards, and catche you euery man a wife of the daughters of Shiloh, and goe into the land of Beniamin.
Khenhaw! Shiloh vah tanglanaw ni lamnae hmuen koe, a tâco toteh, misur takha koehoi tâcawt awh nateh, tami pueng ni Shiloh tangla hah yu lah man awh. Hahoi torei, Benjamin ram vah cet awh.
22 And when their fathers or their brethren come vnto vs to complaine, we wil say vnto them, Haue pitie on them for our sakes, because we reserued not to eche man his wife in the warre, and because ye haue not giuen vnto them hitherto, ye haue sinned.
Hahoi, a na pa thoseh, a thangroi thoseh, lairoe hanlah tho pawiteh, ahnimouh koevah; Kaimouh kecu dawk ahnimouh hah pahren awh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, taran tuknae koe ka yu hanelah, na man pouh mahoeh toe. Bangkongtetpawiteh, ahnimouh ni hai atu totouh napui na poe kalawn awh hoeh. Namamouh e lawkkam dawk yon na kâhnei awh telah tet pouh awh.
23 And the children of Beniamin did so, and tooke wiues of them that danced according to their nomber: which they tooke, and went away, and returned to their inheritance, and repaired the cities and dwelt in them.
Benjaminnaw teh, hot patetlah a sak awh. Ka lamnaw hah amamae yu hanelah lengkaleng a man awh teh, yout a ceikhai awh. A ram dawk a phakhai awh teh, khopui hah bout a pathoup awh, hawvah kho a sak awh.
24 So the children of Israel departed thence at that time, euery man to his tribe, and to his familie, and went out from thence euery man to his inheritance.
Hottelah, Isarelnaw teh, amamae miphun rip hoi amamae imthungkhu rip hai, hote hmuen koehoi a tâco awh teh, amamae kho tangkuem vah a ban awh.
25 In those dayes there was no King in Israel, but euery man did that which was good in his eyes.
Hote tueng nah, Isarel vah siangpahrang awm hoeh. Tami pueng ni a mahoima hmunae dawk ahawi tie patetlah kho a sak awh.
