Joshua 2
1 And Joshua the son of Nun sent out of Shittim two spies secretly, saying: 'Go view the land, and Jericho.' And they went, and came into the house of a harlot whose name was Rahab, and lay there.
Nun chapa Joshua’n Shittim’a kon in aguh’a gamvelhi dingin mini anasoldoh’in hitihin anavailhah’in ahi. Chelhonnin lang Jericho geijin agamchu gakholpeh lhonnin ati. Hitichun amani achelhonnin Rahab notinu in na agalhung lhonnin hicheachun agageh lhontan ahi.
2 And it was told the king of Jericho, saying: 'Behold, there came men in hither to-night of the children of Israel to search out the land.'
Hiche chu Jericho lengpa kom agalhut tauvin, “Ven, hiche gam kholtoh dingin Israel mi phabep tujannin ahunguve,” agatiuvin ahi.
3 And the king of Jericho sent unto Rahab, saying: 'Bring forth the men that are come to thee, that are entered into thy house; for they are come to search out all the land.'
Hichun Jericho lengpan Rahab kommachun mi asollin hitihin agaseisah e, “Hiche gamsung velhi dinga hungho nainna hunglut hochu hinpuidoh’in” atin ahi.
4 And the woman took the two men, and hid them; and she said: 'Yea, the men came unto me, but I knew not whence they were;
Rahab chun miteni chu anasel ahinai, ahinla aman anadonbutnin, “Amani chu ahunglhonnai ahin hoiya konna hunglhonham ti keiman kahepoi.
5 and it came to pass about the time of the shutting of the gate, when it was dark, that the men went out; whither the men went I know not; pursue after them quickly; for ye shall overtake them.'
Kho ahung jinkon kelkot kikhading konchakhun apotdoh lhontai, hoilangpen ajotlhon ham keiman kahepoi, delloi leuchun naphahdiu ahi,” ati.
6 But she had brought them up to the roof, and hid them with the stalks of flax, which she had spread out upon the roof.
Ahinlah amanun amani chu indan chunglanga apuitouvin patkung lom inchunga anaphou lah’a chun asellin ahi.
7 And the men pursued after them the way to the Jordan unto the fords; and as soon as they that pursued after them were gone out, the gate was shut.
Hiche jouchun lengpa sepaiten Jordan panmun lampi geijin aganungdel’un ahi. Anungdel ho chu apotdoh jou jouvun Jericho khopi kelkot chu akhahtauvin ahi.
8 And before they were laid down, she came up unto them upon the roof;
Gamvelhi teni jan alup masang lhon in, Rahab inchunga amani chu kihoulimpi dingin kaltouvin,
9 and she said unto the men: 'I know that the LORD hath given you the land, and that your terror is fallen upon us, and that all the inhabitants of the land melt away before you.
ajah lhonnah hitin aseije, “Pakaiyin hiche gamhi nangho napeh’u ahitai ti keiman kahei, nangho ginnan eilodim tauvin, hiche gam mitehi nangho kichatna a tijagam kahitauve.
10 For we have heard how the LORD dried up the water of the Red Sea before you, when ye came out of Egypt; and what ye did unto the two kings of the Amorites, that were beyond the Jordan, unto Sihon and to Og, whom ye utterly destroyed.
Ajeh chu Egypt gamma konna nahung potdoh’u chun Pakaiyin nangho dingin twikhanglen san Achansah’in, chuleh Jordan luigal langa um Amor lengteni Sihor le Og nasuhmang hellu jongchu kana jauvin ahi.
11 And as soon as we had heard it, our hearts did melt, neither did there remain any more spirit in any man, because of you; for the LORD your God, He is God in heaven above, and on earth beneath.
Hiche thuhi kajah jeh’un kalunguhi alhalhop jengin, nangho kimaitopi ding hi koima angapcha umtalou ahi. Ajeh chu Pakai na Pathennu hi thaneitah, chunga van le noiya lei Pathen ahi.
12 Now therefore, I pray you, swear unto me by the LORD, since I have dealt kindly with you, that ye also will deal kindly with my father's house — and give me a true token —
Hijeh chun, keiman nangni kakithopi lhon bang’a hi nangnin jong keile kainsung mite hi kh otona nei neilhonding hinam Pakai minin kihahsellhon’in lang,
13 and save alive my father, and my mother, and my brethren, and my sisters, and all that they have, and deliver our lives from death.'
Hiche Jericho khopi hi nalah tenguleh, kapa le kanu, kasopi pasalho le kasopi numeiho, kainsung mite jouseule keima neihinghoi diu hinam amelchihna khat neipelhonin ati.
14 And the men said unto her: 'Our life for yours, if ye tell not this our business; and it shall be, when the LORD giveth us the land, that we will deal kindly and truly with thee.'
Amanin adonbut lhonnin, nangin neiseidoh lhonlou pouleh nainsungu hoidohna dingin keini hinkho hi kakitepnalhon ahiyenge. Pakaiyin hiche gamhi eipeh tenguleh kakitepna lhon dungjuija khotona kahin neidiu ahi atilhonne.
15 Then she let them down by a cord through the window; for her house was upon the side of the wall, and she dwelt upon the wall.
Hichejou chun, Rahab in jong, amanichu khaokhat nin bangkotna konchun agahkhailhan ahi. Ajeh chu Rahab inchu hiche khopi kulpi pala kingamma ahi.
16 And she said unto them: 'Get you to the mountain, lest the pursuers light upon you; and hide yourselves there three days, until the pursuers be returned; and afterward may ye go your way.'
Amanun ajahlhonnah, “Molchung langa kaltou lhonnin, ajole minungdel ho chun nahin tohkha get unte, hicheachun nithum hung umlhonnin minungdel ho chu ahung kile kahsen kisel lhonnin, chujoutengleh nachenanom lhonnah chetheilhon tan,” ati.
17 And the men said unto her: 'We will be guiltless of this thine oath which thou hast made us to swear.
Apotdoh masang lhonnin, amanin amanu komma chun, “Nanghon nakiseipeh’u dungjuija hi nahung chonnuleh keiho jong kakitepnao bangahi kahintohdiu ahi atilhonne.
18 Behold, when we come into the land, thou shalt bind this line of scarlet thread in the window which thou didst let us down by; and thou shalt gather unto thee into the house thy father, and thy mother, and thy brethren, and all thy father's household.
Keihohi hiche gammahi kahung tenguleh nangin hiche khaosan hi keini neikhailhah lhonna hiche bangkotna konna hi nana khailhahding ahi. Chujouteng, nainsung mite jouse, napa, nang, nasopiho jousele nainsung mite jouse nainsunguva hi nana umdiu ahi.
19 And it shall be, that whosoever shall go out of the doors of thy house into the street, his blood shall be upon his head, and we will be guiltless; and whosoever shall be with thee in the house, his blood shall be on our head, if any hand be upon him.
Ijemtia napotdoh’uva lamlen dunga nana chekhah uva nathikhah uva ahileh keiho thepmo hilouding ahi. Amavang hiche insunga hi naummuva khattouvin nasuhkhah uleh hitobanga thina nato-uleh keiho mopohna hiding ahi.
20 But if thou utter this our business, then we will be guiltless of thine oath which thou hast made us to swear.'
Ahinlah nanghon neijoulhep uva ahivangleh hiche kihahsel nahi pannabei hiding ahi,” ati peh lhonne.
21 And she said: 'According unto your words, so be it.' And she sent them away, and they departed; and she bound the scarlet line in the window.
Amanun “Nasei lhonchu kapomme,” ati. Hitichun amani chu asoldoh’in, khaosan chu bangkotna chun akhaitan ahi.
22 And they went, and came unto the mountain, and abode there three days, until the pursuers were returned; and the pursuers sought them throughout all the way, but found them not.
Gamvelhi tenichu thinglhang gam langah akaltou lhonnin nithum agachaam lhonnin ahi. Amani nungdel ho chun lamlen langchu muntin aga phetleng jengun ahinlah ajona’in lolhing louvin ahung kiletauvin ahi.
23 Then the two men returned, and descended from the mountain, and passed over, and came to Joshua the son of Nun; and they told him all that had befallen them.
Hichun gamvelhi tenichu thinglhang gamma kon in ahung kumsuh lhonnin Jordan vadung ahinpal galkai lhonnin Joshua kommachun thilsoh jouse chu alhut lhontan ahi.
24 And they said unto Joshua: 'Truly the LORD hath delivered into our hands all the land; and moreover all the inhabitants of the land do melt away before us.'
Pakaiyin gamjouse hi eipetauve, ajeh chu agammite ho jouse khu eiho kichatnan atija-gam tauve atilhonne.
