< Judges 2 >

1 And the angel of the LORD came up from Gilgal to Bochim. And he said: '...I made you to go up out of Egypt, and have brought you unto the land which I swore unto your fathers; and I said: I will never break My covenant with you;
BOEIPA puencawn te Gilgal lamloh Bokim la cet tih, “Na pa rhoek taengah ka caeng vanbangla nangmih te Egypt lamkah kan doek tih nangmih he khohmuen khuila kang kun puei coeng. Te dongah, 'Nangmih taengkah ka paipi te kumhal duela ka phae mahpawh.
2 and ye shall make no covenant with the inhabitants of this land; ye shall break down their altars; but ye have not hearkened unto My voice; what is this ye have done?
Tedae khohmuen kah khosa rhoek neh paipi na saii uh mahpawh. A hmueihtuk te palet pa uh,’ ka ti lalah ka ol na ngai kolla bahamlae he he saii uh?
3 Wherefore I also said: I will not drive them out from before you; but they shall be unto you as snares, and their gods shall be a trap unto you.'
Te dongah, 'Amih te na mikhmuh lamkah ka haek voel pawt vetih voeivang ah nangmih taengah kho a sak uh ni, amih kah pathen nangmih taengah hlaeh la om uh ni,’ ka ti coeng,” a ti.
4 And it came to pass, when the angel of the LORD spoke these words unto all the children of Israel, that the people lifted up their voice, and wept.
He ol he BOEIPA kah puencawn loh Israel ca rhoek boeih taengaha thui vaengah pilnam loh a ola huel uh tih rhap uh.
5 And they called the name of that place Bochim; and they sacrificed there unto the LORD.
Te dongah tekah hmuen te Bokim tila minga sak uh tih BOEIPA te pahoi a nawn uh.
6 Now when Joshua had sent the people away, the children of Israel went every man unto his inheritance to possess the land.
Joshua loh pilnam tea tueih daengah, Isreal ca rhoek loh a rho te rhipa paan uh tih khohmuen tea huul uh.
7 And the people served the LORD all the days of Joshua, and all the days of the elders that outlived Joshua, who had seen all the great work of the LORD, that He had wrought for Israel.
Joshua tue boeih neh Joshua phoeikah hinglung aka vanga hamca rhoek, Israel hama len la a saii pah BOEIPA bibi boeih aka hmu rhoek kah a tue khuiah tah pilnam loh BOEIPA taengah tho a thuenguh.
8 And Joshua the son of Nun, the servant of the LORD, died, being a hundred and ten years old.
BOEIPA kah sal Joshua, Nun capa Joshua tah ya neh kum rha a lo ca vaengah duek.
9 And they buried him in the border of his inheritance in Timnath-heres, in the hill-country of Ephraim, on the north of the mountain of Gaash.
Anih te Gaash tlang, tlangpuei Ephraim tlang Timnathkhehres kah amah rho rhi aha up uh.
10 And also all that generation were gathered unto their fathers; and there arose another generation after them, that knew not the LORD, nor yet the work which He had wrought for Israel.
Te vaengkah cadilcahma boeih loh a napa rhoek taenglaa khoem uh tih amih hnukah aka poe cadilcahma long tah BOEIPA khaw, Israel hama saii pah bibi te ming uh pawh.
11 And the children of Israel did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, and served the Baalim.
Israel ca rhoek loh BOEIPA mikhmuh ah thaea saii uh tih Baal te tho a thueng thiluh.
12 And they forsook the LORD, the God of their fathers, who brought them out of the land of Egypt, and followed other gods, of the gods of the peoples that were round about them, and worshipped them; and they provoked the LORD.
A napa rhoek kah BOEIPA Pathen, Egypt kho lamkah amih aka khuen tea hnoo uh. A kaepvai kah pilnam pathen, pathen tloe rhoek kah a hnuk te a vai uh tiha bakop thil uh dongah BOEIPA tea veet uh.
13 And they forsook the LORD, and served Baal and the Ashtaroth.
BOEIPA tea hnoo uh. Baal neh Ashtoreth taengah tho a thuenguh.
14 And the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel, and He delivered them into the hands of spoilers that spoiled them, and He gave them over into the hands of their enemies round about, so that they could not any longer stand before their enemies.
BOEIPA kah thintoek loh Israel taengah sai tih aka tuk aka vat rhoek kut aha tloeng dongah amih tea reth uh. Amih te kaepvai kah a thunkha rhoek kut aha yoih coeng dongah a thunkha rhoek mikhmuh ah koep pai uh thai voel pawh.
15 Whithersoever they went out, the hand of the LORD was against them for evil, as the LORD had spoken, and as the LORD had sworn unto them; and they were sore distressed.
BOEIPA loh a thui tih amih taengah BOEIPA loh a caeng vanbanglaa caeh uh takuem ah BOEIPA kut loh amih taengah yoethaenah laa om pah tih amih te mata daengdaeh.
16 And the LORD raised up judges, who saved them out of the hand of those that spoiled them.
Tedae lai aka tloek te BOEIPA loh a phoe sak dongah amih aka tuk aka vat kut lamloh amiha khang la om.
17 And yet they hearkened not unto their judges, for they went astray after other gods, and worshipped them; they turned aside quickly out of the way wherein their fathers walked, obeying the commandments of the LORD; they did not so.
Tedae amih kah lai aka tloek te khaw hnatang uh pawh. Te dongah pathen tloe rhoek taengah cukhalh uh tih amih taengah bakop uh. A napa rhoek kah a pongpa nah longpuei te koeloea phaelh uh tih BOEIPA olpaek hnatun ham he saii uh pawh.
18 And when the LORD raised them up judges, then the LORD was with the judge, and saved them out of the hand of their enemies all the days of the judge; for it repented the LORD because of their groaning by reason of them that oppressed them and crushed them.
Amih ham lai aka tloek te BOEIPA loh a phoe sak vaengah khaw lai aka tloek te BOEIPA loh a om puei. Amih aka nen tih amih aka huet mikhmuh ah a nguekcoinah te BOEIPA khaw hal tih lai aka tloek kah a tue khuiah tah a thunkha kut lamloh amih te a khang.
19 But it came to pass, when the judge was dead, that they turned back, and dealt more corruptly than their fathers, in following other gods to serve them, and to worship them; they left nothing undone of their practices, nor of their stubborn way.
Tedae lai aka tloek tea duek vaengah tah mael uh bal tih a napa rhoek lakah taoe poci uh. Amih taengah thothueng ham neh amih te bawk hama tloe pathen hnukah pongpa uh‍. A khoboe neh a mangkhak longpuei te voei uh pawh.
20 And the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel; and He said: 'Because this nation have transgressed My covenant which I commanded their fathers, and have not hearkened unto My voice;
Te dongah BOEIPA kah a thintoek loh Israel taengah sai tih, “A napa rhoek ham ka uen, ka paipi te namtu loh a poe tih kai ol hnatun uh pawh.
21 I also will not henceforth drive out any from before them of the nations that Joshua left when he died;
Namtom lamkah te amih mikhmuh ah hlang haek hamla ka koei mahpawh. Te te Joshua loh a hnoo tih amah khaw duek coeng,” a ti.
22 that by them I may prove Israel, whether they will keep the way of the LORD to walk therein, as their fathers did keep it, or not.'
Israel loh BOEIPA kah longpueia ngaithuen tih a khuiah pongpa ham te a napa rhoek kah a ngaithuen bangla a ngaithuen pawt khaw amih tea noem.
23 So the LORD left those nations, without driving them out hastily; neither delivered He them into the hand of Joshua.
Te dongah BOEIPA loh namtom rhoek te koeloea haek kollaa paih tih Joshua kut ah tloeng pah pawh.
