Joshua 22

1 Then Joshua called the Reubenites, and the Gadites, and the half-tribe of Manasseh,

Joshua Reuben chate le Gad chate chule Manasseh phungkeh khat chutoh akoukhommin,

2 and said unto them: 'Ye have kept all that Moses the servant of the LORD commanded you, and have hearkened unto my voice in all that I commanded you;

Ajah uva hiti hin aseitai, “Nang hon Pakai lhacha Mose in nathupeh jouse abonchan nanitsoh keiyun, keiman nango kaseipeh kathusei jouse jong nangai taove,

3 ye have not left your brethren these many days unto this day, but have kept the charge of the commandment of the LORD your God.

Nikho hijat sunghin tuni geijin nanghon nasopi phungdang teho jong nadalha dehpouvin, Pakai na-Pathenn uvin nathupeh chnegseu jong chingthei tah in nanit soh kei’un ahi.

4 And now the LORD your God hath given rest unto your brethren, as He spoke unto them; therefore now turn ye, and get you unto your tents, unto the land of your possession, which Moses the servant of the LORD gave you beyond the Jordan.

Tunvang Pakai na-Pathen uvin athutep bang bangin nasopi phungdang te hojong jong akitepna bangin akicholdosah tai, hijeh chun tun kiheijun lang Jordan gal lamma Pakai lhacha Mose’n napeh naugam, nangho chenna gamsung nagoulo’u, na inlammu jonnin chetaovin,

5 Only take diligent heed to do the commandment and the law, which Moses the servant of the LORD commanded you, to love the LORD your God, and to walk in all His ways, and to keep His commandments, and to cleave unto Him, and to serve Him with all your heart and with all your soul.'

Pakai lhacha Mose’n nathupeh u danthupeh chengse chu nanit jingna diuvin ching theiyun, Pakai na Pathennu nangailut nuva ama lamlhah jouse najuithem uva athupeh chengse nanit’uva amajong nakolchah jinguva, chule nalungthim pumpiu le nahinkho pumpiuva amakin jeng naboldiu nagin jing diu ahi.” ati.

6 So Joshua blessed them, and sent them away; and they went unto their tents.

Hitichun Joshua’n amaho chu phatthei aboh in, phatthei abohjou phatnin asoldohtai, amaho jong ainlam cheh uva achetaove.

7 Now to the one half-tribe of Manasseh Moses had given inheritance in Bashan; but unto the other half gave Joshua among their brethren beyond the Jordan westward. Moreover when Joshua sent them away unto their tents, he blessed them,

Manasseh phung akehkhat chu Bashan gamsunga Mose’n achandiu gam anapehsa ahin, Manasseh phungkeh khatma chu Joshua’n Jordan vadung gal nilhumlam, asopiteo dangho lah a chenmun anapeh ahiye. Amaho chu Joshua’n ainlammuva asoldoh phatnin abonchaovin phatthei abohsoh keijin ahi;

8 and spoke unto them, saying: 'Return with much wealth unto your tents, and with very much cattle, with silver, and with gold, and with brass, and with iron, and with very much raiment; divide the spoil of your enemies with your brethren.'

Ajah uva Joshua’n hitin ati, “Neilegou tampitah kipoh uvin lang gancha jong tamtah kipoh uvin lang naponbuh sonna muncheh a kile taovin, nagal mite uva konna nachomdoh jouseu jong kihommun” ati.

9 And the children of Reuben and the children of Gad and the half-tribe of Manasseh returned, and departed from the children of Israel out of Shiloh, which is in the land of Canaan, to go unto the land of Gilead, to the land of their possession, whereof they were possessed, according to the commandment of the LORD by the hand of Moses.

Hijeh chun Reuben chate le Gad chate chuleh Manasseh phung kehkhat chun Israel chate amoh chengse chu Canaan gam'a Shiloh kiti khopiah chun adalhauvin, amaho chu Pakaiyin Mose athupeh banga agamlosa sung’u Gilead gamsung jonnin ache taove.

10 And when they came unto the region about the Jordan, that is in the land of Canaan, the children of Reuben and the children of Gad and the half-tribe of Manasseh built there an altar by the Jordan, a great altar to look upon.

Ahin amaho chu Canaan sung’a aum jinglai un, Geliloth kiti mun Jordan vadung kommah chun, Reuben chate le Gad chate chule Manasseh phung kehkhat chu akinga pa un, maicham phung lentah le thupitah khat asemmun ahi.

11 And the children of Israel heard say: 'Behold, the children of Reuben and the children of Gad and the half-tribe of Manasseh have built an altar in the forefront of the land of Canaan, in the region about the Jordan, on the side that pertaineth to the children of Israel.'

Israel chaten, Reuben chate le Gad chate, chule Manasseh phung kehkhat chun Canaan gam mongchin Jordan vapang lhangchung khat’a Israel chate gamsunga khun maicham asemmu chu ajahdoh taove.

12 And when the children of Israel heard of it, the whole congregation of the children of Israel gathered themselves together at Shiloh, to go up against them to war.

Athudol hi Israel chaten ajahdoh phatnun Shiloh munna cheng Israel chate khopi pumpi akikhommuvin amahochu galla sat thodin agotaove.

13 And the children of Israel sent unto the children of Reuben, and to the children of Gad, and to the half-tribe of Manasseh, into the land of Gilead, Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest;

Ahinlah, amasan, Eleazar thempu chapa Phinehas lamkainan mi phabep Reuben phung mite le Gad chule Manasseh phung keh khat toh kihoudin anasol uve.

14 and with him ten princes, one prince of a fathers' house for each of the tribes of Israel; and they were every one of them head of their fathers' houses among the thousands of Israel.

Hichea kihoulimpi dia kalsong mihochu Israel phunglah’a lamkai som ahiuvin, a insungkhat bahkailhah’a aluboh cheh, chule Israel insung phung khatcheh a konna kilhengdoh phung upacheh mi ahiuve.

15 And they came unto the children of Reuben, and to the children of Gad, and to the half-tribe of Manasseh, unto the land of Gilead, and they spoke with them, saying:

Amaho chu Gilead gam ahunglhun phat un, Reuben chate le Gad chate chule Manasseh phung kehkhat hengah hitin aseijuve,

16 'Thus saith the whole congregation of the LORD: What treachery is this that ye have committed against the God of Israel, to turn away this day from following the LORD, in that ye have builded you an altar, to rebel this day against the LORD?

Pakai khoppi amiten hitin aseijun, “Ipi dinga nanghon tulaija hi Israel Pathen douna thil nabolluva Pakai nung najuidauva nakiheimang jenguva nacham chamma maicham nakisem jeng uva Pakai douna hitobang pihi nabollu hitam?

17 Is the iniquity of Peor too little for us, from which we have not cleansed ourselves unto this day, although there came a plague upon the congregation of the LORD,

Peor munna ichonsetnao jong phaset nasah louvu ham? Hichea konna bon ithensoh jou loulaiju hilouham? Hiche ichonset jeh uva jong chu Pakai khoppi mipi chunga jong gamna hise ana langsa ahi,

18 that ye must turn away this day from following the LORD? and it will be, seeing ye rebel to-day against the LORD, that to-morrow He will be wroth with the whole congregation of Israel.

Tuni geija jong nangho hitobanga hi Pakai chu iti nadalhah uva nakihei mang jengdiu hitam? Tuni jenga jong nanghon Pakai doumah nabolluva ahileh amachu Israel khoppi pumpi chung jeng ajong hung lunghang jengding ahi.

19 Howbeit, if the land of your possession be unclean, then pass ye over unto the land of the possession of the LORD, wherein the LORD'S tabernacle dwelleth, and take possession among us; but rebel not against the LORD, nor rebel against us, in building you an altar besides the altar of the LORD our God.

Nachennao gamsung athenlouva ahijongleh hung galkai junlang Pakai houbuh kisonna gamsung Pakai gamsunga khun keiho lah a hung cheng jenguvin, Pakai doumah hi nabol louhel diu, Pakai I-Pathennu maicham semna tailouva nacham nachamma nakisem thu-uva keiho geija doumah hol neiso louhel dingu ahi.

20 Did not Achan the son of Zerah commit a trespass concerning the devoted thing, and wrath fell upon all the congregation of Israel? and that man perished not alone in his iniquity.'

Suhmang dinga kikat dohsa thil-ho chunga Achan kitipa Zerah chapan tohkhel aneiyu chu Israel khoppi pumpi chunga lunghanna hungchu jengsa hilouham?” ahung tiuve.

21 Then the children of Reuben and the children of Gad and the half-tribe of Manasseh answered, and spoke unto the heads of the thousands of Israel:

Reuben chate le Gad chate chule Manasseh phung kehkhat chun Israel phungsunga insungmi upa ho donbutnan aneiyun,

22 'God, God, the LORD, God, God, the LORD, He knoweth, and Israel he shall know; if it be in rebellion, or if in treachery against the LORD — save Thou us not this day —

“Pakai, Hatchungnung chu Pathen ahi! Pakai, Hatchungnung chu Pathen ahi! Aman thudih le thutah chu ahenai, chule Israel chaten jong nahet uva pha ahi. Keihon maicham kasemmu hi Pakai doumah nadia kabollu ahipoi. Kathilbol uhi doumah lam ahitah a Pakai dinga tahsan suhbeina ahidingleh keihohi tunin eighing hoida jenguvin,

23 that we have built us an altar to turn away from following the LORD; or if to offer thereon burnt-offering or meal-offering, or if to offer sacrifices of peace-offerings thereon, let the LORD Himself require it;

Ahin maicham khat kasemdoh jeh uva Pakai nungjuija konna kihei mang’na ahi mongding leh ahilouva keihon hiche maicham chunga hi pumgo thil hihenlang lhosoh thilto hijongleh chamna thilto hijongle kato’uva ahivangleh Pakaiyin kachunguva gotna eipe jeng uhen.

24 and if we have not rather out of anxiety about a matter done this, saying: In time to come your children might speak unto our children, saying: What have ye to do with the LORD, the God of Israel?

Tahbeh mong in, keihon hiche maicham kasem uhi katijat man uva kabollu ahibouve, ajeh chu khonung tengle nachateovin kachateo jah a, ‘Nanghon Pakai Israel Pathen chu koi thusah na nahou uham?’ ahin ti diu ahi

25 for the LORD hath made the Jordan a border between us and you, ye children of Reuben and children of Gad; ye have no portion in the LORD; so might your children make our children cease from fearing the LORD.

Ajeh chu Pakaiyin nanghotoh Reuben chate Gad chate, ikikah uva Jordan vadung hi gamgia asemsa ahitai, khunungleh nangho Pakaiya chan naneipouve ati theiju ahi, hitobanga hi nachateovin kachateo hi Pakai ahousahda theiyu ahi.

26 Therefore we said: Let us now prepare to build us an altar, not for burnt-offering, nor for sacrifice;

Hiche jeh a chu keihon ka maicham semmu hi pumgo thilto gonading le kilhaina gantha nading ahipoi,

27 but it shall be a witness between us and you, and between our generations after us, that we may do the service of the LORD before Him with our burnt-offerings, and with our sacrifices, and with our peace-offerings; that your children may not say to our children in time to come: Ye have no portion in the LORD.

Ahin keiholeh nangho kikah a hetjingna dia kasemmu ahi, chujongleh hichun eiho nunga khangthahte kah a jong hettohsahnan hungpangin tin, keihon jong Pakai angsunga ama kin kabol mong mong uvin pumgo thilto jong kilhaina gantha jong chule chamna thilto gantha jong kabol naove ti hetjing’nan in hung pang nante, katiu ahi, achuti louva ahileh khonung phatleh nachateovin keiho chate jah a, “Nanghon Pakaiya chan nanei pouve” ahinti khah teidiu ahi tia kabollu ahibouve.

28 Therefore said we: It shall be, when they so say to us or to our generations in time to come, that we shall say: Behold the pattern of the altar of the LORD, which our fathers made, not for burnt-offering, nor for sacrifice; but it is a witness between us and you.

Ijemtia hita chu ahinsei khah tah ujongle, khonung a katu kachateu vin jong, ‘Veuvin, Pakai dinga kapu kapateuvin asemsa maicham khu pumgo thilto kitona jong hilou, kilhaina ganthana maicham jong hilou, ahin nangho leh keihon Pakaiyah chan inanei khommui ti melchih’nan pang nante’ katiu ahibouve.

29 Far be it from us that we should rebel against the LORD, and turn away this day from following the LORD, to build an altar for burnt-offering, for meal-offering, or for sacrifice, besides the altar of the LORD our God that is before His tabernacle.'

Itihchan hijongleh keihon Pakai doumah kabol louhel diu ahin, chujongleh Pakai i-Pathennu maicham ama houbuh maiya kitung tailouva keihon kacham chamuva pumgo thilto tona dingle lhosoh thilto tonading chule kilhaina ganthana dia maicham kasemmuva Pakai nunga kona kaki heimang louhel diu ahi” atiuvin ahi.

30 And when Phinehas the priest, and the princes of the congregation, even the heads of the thousands of Israel that were with him, heard the words that the children of Reuben and the children of Gad and the children of Manasseh spoke, it pleased them well.

Reuben chate leh Gad chate chule Manasseh phung kehkhat thusei ho jouse chu ajah doh phat uvin, Phinehas thempupa le akilhonpi khoppi lamkai holeh Israel insung jouse phung upa chengsen chu alungu alhaisel taovin ahi.

31 And Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest said unto the children of Reuben, and to the children of Gad, and to the children of Manasseh: 'This day we know that the LORD is in the midst of us, because ye have not committed this treachery against the LORD; now have ye delivered the children of Israel out of the hand of the LORD.'

Eleazer thempupa chapa Phinehas chun Reuben chate Gad chate chule Manasseh phung kehkhat jah a aseipeh in, “I-lah uva Pakai ching jingnai, ti keihon tunin kahe taove, ijeh-inem itileh keihon nangho kanaginmo bang’un Pakai dounan thilse ima nabol hih naove chuleh nanghon Pakai khutna kon in jong Israel chate hi suhmang’a aum thei naova konin nahuhdoh taove” atin ahi.

32 And Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest, and the princes, returned from the children of Reuben, and from the children of Gad, out of the land of Gilead, unto the land of Canaan, to the children of Israel, and brought them back word.

Chujouvin Eleazer thempupa chapa Phinehas le lamkaiho chun Reuben chate le Gad chate Gilead gamsung’a chun adalhauvin, hikomma kon chun Canaan gamlam, Israel chate chenna lamma ahung kile taovin, Israelte henga chun thilsoh umchan thu chengse chu lhut taovin ahi.

33 And the thing pleased the children of Israel; and the children of Israel blessed God, and spoke no more of going up against them to war, to destroy the land wherein the children of Reuben and the children of Gad dwelt.

Athulhutnu chun Israel chate chu alungdamsah lheh jeng in ahi, chuphatnin Israel chaten jong Pathen chate avahchoijun, Reuben chate le Gad chate chenna gamsung suhmang ding le galbol ding jong aseipoh kit tapouve.

34 And the children of Reuben and the children of Gad called the altar —: 'for it is a witness between us that the LORD is God.'

Reuben chate le Gad chaten maicham asemsau chu ‘Hettohsah’ tin aminsah taovin ahi, amahon aseijun, “Ijeh-inem ititle eiho le amaho kikah a Pakai chu eiho Pathen jong ahi ti hettohsah a pang ahi,” atiuve.
