< Numbers 21 >

1 And the Canaanite, the king of Arad, who dwelt in the South, heard tell that Israel came by the way of Atharim; and he fought against Israel, and took some of them captive.
Kanaannaw Arad siangpahrang akalae kaawm e niyah, Isarelnaw, Atharim lam koe lah a tho awh ti a thai awh toteh, Isarelnaw hah a tuk awh teh, a tangawn san lah a man awh.
2 And Israel vowed a vow unto the LORD, and said: 'If Thou wilt indeed deliver this people into my hand, then I will utterly destroy their cities.'
Hottelah Isarelnaw ni BAWIPA koevah lawk a kam awh teh, hetnaw heh kaimouh kut dawk na poe pawiteh, a khopui hah peng ka raphoe thai han telah ati awh.
3 And the LORD hearkened to the voice of Israel, and delivered up the Canaanites; and they utterly destroyed them and their cities; and the name of the place was called Hormah.
BAWIPA ni Isarelnaw e lawk a tarawi pouh teh, Kanaannaw teh a kut dawk poe lah ao. Amamouh hoi a khopuinaw hah he a raphoe teh, hote hmuen teh Hormah telah ati awh.
4 And they journeyed from mount Hor by the way to the Red Sea, to compass the land of Edom; and the soul of the people became impatient because of the way.
Hor mon koehoi tuipui paling koelah Edom ram lawngven lahoi a cei awh. Lam ekvoi a kâhei awh dawkvah, taminaw pueng teh a lungkuep laipalah,
5 And the people spoke against God, and against Moses: 'Wherefore have ye brought us up out of Egypt to die in the wilderness? for there is no bread, and there is no water; and our soul loatheth this light bread.'
Cathut hoi Mosi taranlahoi kahrawngum vah due hanelah bangkongmaw Izip ram hoi na tâcokhai. Vaiyei hai awm hoeh, tui hai awm hoeh, hete vaiyei karawcap e hai ka hringnae ni a panuet toe, telah ati awh.
6 And the LORD sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people; and much people of Israel died.
Hatdawkvah, BAWIPA ni hmai tahrun a thasin teh, taminaw a khue dawkvah moikapap a due awh.
7 And the people came to Moses, and said: 'We have sinned, because we have spoken against the LORD, and against thee; pray unto the LORD, that He take away the serpents from us.' And Moses prayed for the people.
Hatnavah taminaw ni Mosi koe a tho awh teh, BAWIPA hoi nang koe taranlahoi lawk ka dei e hah ka yon awh toe. Tahrunnaw hah kaimouh koehoi takhoe hanlah BAWIPA koe na kâhet pouh leih, telah atipouh.
8 And the LORD said unto Moses: 'Make thee a fiery serpent, and set it upon a pole; and it shall come to pass, that every one that is bitten, when he seeth it, shall live.'
BAWIPA ni Mosi koe hmai tahrun hah sak nah teh khom dawk hoi pathout pouh. Tahrun ni a khue e pueng ni hote hah a khet vaiteh a hring awh han telah atipouh.
9 And Moses made a serpent of brass, and set it upon the pole; and it came to pass, that if a serpent had bitten any man, when he looked unto the serpent of brass, he lived.
Hahoi Mosi ni rahum tahrun hah a sak teh, khom dawk a vo. Hahoi teh tahrun ni a khue e pueng rahum tahrun hah a khet awh teh a dam awh.
10 And the children of Israel journeyed, and pitched in Oboth.
Isarel catounnaw teh, pou a kâtahruet awh teh, Oboth vah a roe awh.
11 And they journeyed from Oboth, and pitched at Ije-abarim, in the wilderness which is in front of Moab, toward the sun-rising.
Oboth hoi bout a cei awh teh, Kanîtholah Moab kahrawng teng Iyeabarim vah a roe awh.
12 From thence they journeyed, and pitched in the valley of Zered.
Haw hoi a cei awh teh Zered tanghling dawk a roe awh.
13 From thence they journeyed, and pitched on the other side of the Arnon, which is in the wilderness, that cometh out of the border of the Amorites. — For Arnon is the border of Moab, between Moab and the Amorites;
Haw hoi bout a cei awh teh, Amornaw e ramri hoi pou kâkuen e Arnon namran lah a roe awh. Arnon teh Moab ramri, Moab hoi Amornaw rahak vah kaawm e doeh.
14 wherefore it is said in the book of the Wars of the LORD: Vaheb in Suphah, and the valleys of Arnon,
Hatdawkvah, BAWIPA tarantuknae cauk dawk, Suphat hoi Vaheb Arnon, Arnon sawkcanaw hoi.
15 And the slope of the valleys that inclineth toward the seat of Ar, and leaneth upon the border of Moab. —
Ar kho lahoi ka lawng e sawkcanaw hai, Moab ramri lahoi a teng poe ka lawng e telah a dei awh.
16 And from thence to Beer; that is the well whereof the LORD said unto Moses: 'Gather the people together, and I will give them water.'
Hahoi, Beer lah a cei awh. Haw teh BAWIPA ni Mosi koevah, taminaw pueng hah kaw nateh, tui ka poe han ati nae tuikhu koe doeh.
17 Then sang Israel this song: Spring up, O well — sing ye unto it —
Hahoi hete la heh Isarelnaw ni a sak awh. Oe tuiphuek tâcawt haw telah la heh a phueng awh
18 The well, which the princes digged, which the nobles of the people delved, with the sceptre, and with their staves. And from the wilderness to Mattanah;
Kahrawikungnaw a bonae tuikhu hah kâlawk kapoekung sonron hoi tai e, miphunnaw kahrawikung ni a tai e, ti hoiyah, hote kahrawng koehoi Mattanah lah a cei awh.
19 and from Mattanah to Nahaliel; and from Nahaliel to Bamoth;
Mattanah hoi Nahaliel, Nahaliel hoi Bamoth,
20 and from Bamoth to the valley that is in the field of Moab, by the top of Pisgah, which looketh down upon the desert.
Bamoth hoi Moab ram kaawm e tanghling, Pisgah som kho ouk khetnae hmuen, hmu thainae koe a kâtahruet awh.
21 And Israel sent messengers unto Sihon king of the Amorites, saying:
Isarelnaw ni Amornaw e siangpahrang Sihon koevah, na ram dawk hoi kaimouh na rakan sak haw. Na law dawk thoseh, misur takha dawk thoseh, ka cet awh mahoeh. Na tuikhu dawk e tui hai ka net awh mahoeh.
22 'Let me pass through thy land; we will not turn aside into field, or into vineyard; we will not drink of the water of the wells; we will go by the king's highway, until we have passed thy border.'
Na ram ka tapoung hoeh roukrak, siangpahrang lamthungpui dawk doeh ka cet awh ti telah patounenaw a patoun.
23 And Sihon would not suffer Israel to pass through his border; but Sihon gathered all his people together, and went out against Israel into the wilderness, and came to Jahaz; and he fought against Israel.
Hatei, Sihon ni a ram dawk rakan sak hane pasoung hoeh. Hottelah Sihon ni a taminaw pueng a pâkhueng teh, Isarelnaw tuk hanlah kahrawngum a kamthaw awh. Jahaz vah a pha awh teh Isarelnaw hah a tuk awh.
24 And Israel smote him with the edge of the sword, and possessed his land from the Arnon unto the Jabbok, even unto the children of Ammon; for the border of the children of Ammon was strong.
Isarelnaw ni, kahran e tahloi hoi a tuk awh van teh a ram teh Arnon hoi Jabbok totouh, Ammon catounnaw ram totouh a la pouh awh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Ammonnaw e ramri teh pou a patoup awh e doeh.
25 And Israel took all these cities; and Israel dwelt in all the cities of the Amorites, in Heshbon, and in all the towns thereof.
Isarelnaw ni khonaw pueng koung a la awh. Hottelah Isarelnaw teh, Ammonnaw e khonaw pueng dawk Heshbon hoi khotenaw pueng dawk kho a sak awh.
26 For Heshbon was the city of Sihon the king of the Amorites, who had fought against the former king of Moab, and taken all his land out of his hand, even unto the Arnon.
Heshbon kho teh Ammornaw e siangpahrang Sihon onae kho doeh. Ahni teh Moab siangpahrang hoi taran a kâtuk teh a kut dawk e a ram naw pueng Arnon palang kalatkung doeh.
27 Wherefore they that speak in parables say: Come ye to Heshbon! let the city of Sihon be built and established!
Hatdawkvah, la ka phuengkung ni, Heshbon vah tho loe, Sihon khopui teh bout thawng awh sei, bout pathoup awh sei.
28 For a fire is gone out of Heshbon, a flame from the city of Sihon; it hath devoured Ar of Moab, the lords of the high places of Arnon.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, Heshbon hoi hmai a tâco teh, Sihon khopui hoi hmai a to. Moab khopui Ar kho koung a kak. Arnon hmuenrasang bawinaw hoi,
29 Woe to thee, Moab! thou art undone, O people of Chemosh; he hath given his sons as fugitives, and his daughters into captivity, unto Sihon king of the Amorites.
Oe Moab na yawthoe, nang teh na kahma toe. Khemosh taminaw, Amornaw e siangpahrang koevah, a capanaw yawngkhai hane hoi, a canunaw a san lah a poe awh.
30 We have shot at them — Heshbon is perished — even unto Dibon, and we have laid waste even unto Nophah, which reacheth unto Medeba.
Hatei, kai ni na tâ awh toe. Heshbon teh Dibon totouh a kahma. Hottelah Nophah kho totouh a raphoe teh, hot ni teh Medeba totouh a pha.
31 Thus Israel dwelt in the land of the Amorites.
Hot patetlah Amornaw e ram koe Isarelnaw teh kho a sak awh.
32 And Moses sent to spy out Jazer, and they took the towns thereof, and drove out the Amorites that were there.
Hahoi Mosi ni Jazer tuet hanlah tami a patoun. Hote kho a la teh, haw vah kaawm e Amor taminaw a pâlei awh.
33 And they turned and went up by the way of Bashan; and Og the king of Bashan went out against them, he and all his people, to battle at Edrei.
A ban awh teh, Bashan lam koe lah a takhang awh. Bashan siangpahrang Og teh ahnimouh tuk hanelah ama hoi a taminaw pueng hoi Edrei hoi tuk hanelah a kamthaw awh.
34 And the LORD said unto Moses: 'Fear him not; for I have delivered him into thy hand, and all his people, and his land; and thou shalt do to him as thou didst unto Sihon king of the Amorites, who dwelt at Heshbon.'
BAWIPA ni Mosi koevah ahni teh taket hanh loe. Ama hoi a taminaw khuehoi a ram totouh na kut dawk na poe toe. Heshbon e kaawm e Amornaw e siangpahrang Sihon koevah na sak e patetlah na sak han telah atipouh.
35 So they smote him, and his sons, and all his people, until there was none left him remaining; and they possessed his land.
Hahoi teh ama thoseh, a capanaw thoseh, buet touh boehai pâhlung laipalah a taminaw pueng hoi a thei awh teh a ram teh hmawi a tawn pouh awh.
