Judges 12
1 And the men of Ephraim were gathered together, and passed to Zaphon; and they said unto Jephthah: 'Wherefore didst thou pass over to fight against the children of Ammon, and didst not call us to go with thee? we will burn thy house upon thee with fire.'
Ephraim teh cungtalah king a kamkhueng awh. Zaphon pâtam hoi a cei awh teh, Jephthah koevah, bangkongmaw Ammonnaw tuk hanelah na kamthaw navah, kai hai na coun van hoe vaw. Na imnaw hmai ngeng na sawi pouh han atipouh.
2 And Jephthah said unto them: 'I and my people were at great strife with the children of Ammon; and when I called you, ye saved me not out of their hand.
Jephthah ni ahnimouh koe Ammonnaw heh ka taminaw hoi atangcalah ka tuk awh. Na kaw awh navah, na kut dawk hoi na rungngang kalawn hoeh.
3 And when I saw that ye saved me not, I put my life in my hand, and passed over against the children of Ammon, and the LORD delivered them into my hand; wherefore then are ye come up unto me this day, to fight against me?'
Hottelah nangmouh ni na rungngang hoeh toe tie ka panue toteh, due han hai pouk laipalah, Ammonnaw tuk hanlah ka cei awh. Hahoi BAWIPA ni ahnimanaw teh ka kut dawk na poe. Bangkongmaw kaimouh tuk hanelah sahnin vah na kamthaw awh vaw atipouh.
4 Then Jephthah gathered together all the men of Gilead, and fought with Ephraim; and the men of Gilead smote Ephraim, because they said: 'Ye are fugitives of Ephraim, ye Gileadites, in the midst of Ephraim, and in the midst of Manasseh.'
Hahoi Jephthah ni Gileadnaw pueng a pâkhueng teh, Ephraim hah a tuk awh. Ephraim ni nangmouh teh Ephraim miphun, Manasseh miphunnaw dawk hoi na yawng awh teh, kathounghoehe miphun doeh telah Gilead miphunnaw hanlah ouk na pathoe awh dawkvah, Ephraim miphunnaw hah ka tuk awh.
5 And the Gileadites took the fords of the Jordan against the Ephraimites; and it was so, that when any of the fugitives of Ephraim said: 'Let me go over,' the men of Gilead said unto him: 'Art thou an Ephraimite?' If he said: 'Nay';
Hahoi, Gileadnaw ni Jordan namran lah a pha hoehnahlan, Ephraim hah a man awh. Hahoi teh hettelah. Ephraim kayawngnaw ni na luen sak haw ati navah, Gileadnaw ni ahnimouh koe, Ephraim na ou, atipouh. Ahnimouh ni Ephraim nahoeh ati awh torei vah,
6 then said they unto him: 'Say now Shibboleth'; and he said 'Sibboleth'; for he could not frame to pronounce it right; then they laid hold on him, and slew him at the fords of the Jordan; and there fell at that time of Ephraim forty and two thousand.
ahnimouh koe Shibboleth telah dei haw atipouh awh navah, ahnimanaw ni Sibboleth ati awh toteh, kacaicalah dei panuek awh hoeh. Telah hoiyah a man awh teh, Jordan tui rakanae koe a thei awh. Hot patetlah tui a rakanae koe Ephraim hah 42000 touh a thei awh.
7 And Jephthah judged Israel six years. Then died Jephthah the Gileadite, and was buried in one of the cities of Gilead.
Hahoi Jephthah ni Isarel hah kum 6 touh a uk. Hahoi Gilead tami Jephthah teh a due. Ama kho Gilead kho vah a pakawp awh.
8 And after him Ibzan of Beth-lehem judged Israel.
Ahni hnukkhu hoi Bethlehem tami Ibzan ni Isarel hah a uk.
9 And he had thirty sons, and thirty daughters he sent abroad, and thirty daughters he brought in from abroad for his sons. And he judged Israel seven years.
Ahni ni capa 30 touh a tawn teh a canu 30 touh ram alouklah a ceisak awh. Hahoi a capanaw hanlah ramlouk e canu 30 touh a la pouh. Isarel hah kum 7 touh a uk.
10 and Ibzan died, and was buried at Beth-lehem.
Ibzan a due torei teh, Bethlehem vah a pakawp awh.
11 And after him Elon the Zebulunite judged Israel; and he judged Israel ten years.
Ahni hnukkhu hoi Zebulun tami Elon ni Isarel hah kum 10 touh thung a uk.
12 And Elon the Zebulunite died, and was buried in Aijalon in the land of Zebulun.
Zebulun tami Elon teh a due. Zebulun ram Aijalon vah a pakawp awh.
13 And after him Abdon the son of Hillel the Pirathonite judged Israel.
Ahni hnukkhu Pirathon tami Hillel capa Abdon ni Isarel hah a uk.
14 And he had forty sons and thirty sons' sons, that rode on threescore and ten ass colts; and he judged Israel eight years.
Ahni ni capa 40 touh hoi minca 30 touh ao teh mincanaw teh la 70 touh dawk a kâcui awh. Ahni ni Isarel kum 8 touh thung a uk.
15 And Abdon the son of Hillel the Pirathonite died, and was buried in Pirathon in the land of Ephraim, in the hill-country of the Amalekites.
Hahoi Pirathon tami Hillel capa Abdon teh a due. Ephraim ram, Ameleknaw e monsom Pirathon vah a pakawp awh.
