< Deuteronomy 9 >

1 Hear, O Israel: Thou art to pass this day over the Jordan, to go in to drive out nations greater and mightier than thou, [to conquer] cities great and fortified up to heaven,
Ngaiyun, O Israel! Tunia hi nangman Jordan vadung galkaiya namdangte chenna nalut ding ahitan, amaho khu nangho jouse sanga hatthei ahiuve. Khopi sunga acheng uvin chule akhopi kimvel uva pal kigen jouse jong vanthamjol chana sang ahi!
2 A people great and tall, the children of the 'Anakim, whom thou knowest, and of whom thou hast heard say, Who can stand before the children of 'Anak!
Amaho khu nangho sang in asang jouvin chule athahat jouvin abonchauva Anak chilhah ahiuve. Hijeh chun amahoa konin awchang naja tauvin, Anak mite kalvala chung nungjo koi ham? tin asei uve.
3 Understand therefore this day, that the Lord thy God it is who goeth over before thee, he is a consuming fire; he will destroy them, and he will subdue them before thy face; and thou wilt drive them out, and destroy them quickly, as the Lord hath spoken unto thee.
Ahinlah nahe sohkei uve tunikhoa hi Pakai, Pathen in ki dangtah’a aluchung vumuva meikong akilah sah ding asuh gam hel diu ahi. Pakaiyin ahin suhnem diu chuteng nanghon baithet’a natha gam diu ahi. Hichu Pakai, Pathen kitepna ahi.
4 Thou must not say in thy heart, when the Lord thy God doth cast them out from before thee, as followeth, For my righteousness hath the Lord brought me in to possess this land; and that for the wickedness of these nations the Lord doth drive them out from before thee.
Pakai, Pathen in nangho dinga hitobang natoh ahin chaisoh tengleh, ka chonphat jeh uva Pakaiyin hiche gam hi eipeh’u ahi, tia nasei louhel diu ahi. Ajeh chu hiche nam mite phatlou jeh’a Pakaiyin agam uva kona asoldoh joh ahi.
5 Not for thy righteousness, nor for the uprightness of thy heart, dost thou go in to possess their land; but for the wickedness of these nations doth the Lord thy God drive them out from before thee, and in order that he may fulfill the word which the Lord hath sworn unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.
Nangho chonphat vanga hiche gam hi nalo diu ahipoi. Hinlah hiche nam mite phatlou jeh’a adelmang ahin chule Pakai, Pathen in napu napateu Abraham, Isaac le Jacob henga aki tepna asuh bukim ahi.
6 And thou shalt know, that not for thy righteousness doth the Lord thy God give unto thee this good land to possess it; for thou art a stiff-necked people.
Nangho chonphat vanga Pakaiyin hiche gam hi napeh’u ahipoi ti nahet diu ahi, ajeh chu nangho milungtahte nahiuve.
7 Remember, do not forget, how thou didst provoke the Lord thy God to wrath in the wilderness: from the day that thou wentest out of the land of Egypt, until ye came unto this place, have ye been rebellious against the Lord.
Gamthip noiya Pakai nalunghan sahnau geldoh jing uvin. Egypt gam nahin dalhah nikho uva pat tuni chana vel ijat Pakai, Pathen doumah nabol doh tah uvem.
8 Also at Horeb ye provoked the Lord to wrath, so that the Lord was angry with you to destroy you.
Sinai mol jenga jong Pakai doumah nabol uvin hi chun Pakaiyin thagam ding nago uvin ahi.
9 When I was gone up into the mount to receive the tables of stone, the tables of the covenant which the Lord had made with you, and I abode on the mount forty days and forty nights, bread did I not eat, and water did I not drink.
Hiche hi Sinai molchung ka umlaiya thilsoh ahin, Pakayin songpheng-ni ah imatih chana ding in kitepna chu asem tan ahi. Nisomli le jansomli jen an nelou twidon louvin kaum in ahi.
10 And the Lord gave unto me the two tables of stone inscribed by the finger of God; and on them [was written] according to all the words, which the Lord had spoken with you on the mount out of the midst of the fire on the day of the assembly.
Chuin Pakaiyin songpheng-ni eipen hichu Pathen amatah molchunga naum laiyuva athu seidoh chengse akhut’a ajih doh ahi.
11 And it came to pass at the end of forty days and forty nights, that the Lord gave unto me the two tables of stone, the tables of the covenant.
Ni somli le jansomli lhin nikhon Pakaiyin kitepna songpheng teni chu eipe tan ahi.
12 And the Lord said unto me, Arise, get thee down quickly from here; for thy people which thou hast brought forth out of Egypt have become corrupted; they have quickly turned aside out of the way which I have commanded them; they have made themselves a molten image.
Chuin Pakaiyin ka henga aseiyin, Kipat in che tan! Egypt gam'a kona nahin puidoh miten doumah jeng aboltauve. Chomlou kah in ka thupeh nahsah louvin aki hei mang tauve! Sana limdoi sem in hinkho amang tauvin ahi!
13 And the Lord said unto me, thus, I have seen this people, and, behold, it is a stiff-necked people:
Pakaiyin ka henga asei kit in, ‘Hiche mite lungtah le thungai louna ka muchen tai.
14 Let me alone, and I will destroy them, and blot out their name from under the heavens; and I will make of thee a nation mightier and more numerous than they.
Tun keima che ingting hiche mite hi vannoiya kasuh mang jeng diu ahi. Amaho sanga hatjo le chung nung joa keiman na chillhahte ka tundoh ding ahi.
15 And I turned and came down from the mount, and the mount was burning with fire; and the two tables of the covenant were upon my two hands.
Chuin molchung vum'a meikong akilui jeng tan ahile, keima ka hung kumsuh in mon mang theilou kitepna songpheng teni chu kahin choiyin ahi.
16 And I looked, and, behold, ye had sinned against the Lord your God, ye had made yourselves a molten calf; ye had turned aside quickly out of the way which the Lord had commanded you.
Keiman kahin vesuh in ahileh, Pakai ding in chonset gitlouna nabol tauve ti ka muchen tai. Sana mangchan bonglim doi nakisem thu tauvin ahi. Pakai, Pathen in nathupeh nauva kon in chom loukah in nakihei mang tauve!
17 And I took hold of the two tables, and cast them out of my two hands, and I broke them before your eyes.
Chuin keiman songpheng teni chu tol lhama kasep lhan namit mutah uvin kasep in ahi.
18 And I threw myself down before the Lord, as at the first, forty days and forty nights; bread did I not eat, and water did I not drink; on account of all your sins which ye had committed, in doing what is evil in the eyes of the Lord, to provoke him to anger.
Hinlah Pakai, Pathen angsunga nisomli le jan somli masang chun keiman an jong ka nepon chule twi jong ka don poi. Ajeh chu nang hon Pakai doumah bol in hinkho namang tauvin ahi.
19 For I was afraid of the anger and the indignation, wherewith the Lord was wroth against you to destroy you; but the Lord hearkened unto me also at that time.
Pakai lunghanna nachung uva ahung chuh a na thagam diu chu keima ka kicha lheh jenge, hinlah Pakaiyin ka taona eisanpeh kit in ahi.
20 And with Aaron was the Lord very angry to destroy him; and I prayed also for Aaron at the same time.
Pakai chu Joshua chunga alung phamo lheh jeng tan, tha ding agon ahi. Aaron dingin ka taovin ahileh Pakaiyin ahing hoi tan ahi.
21 And your work of sin, which ye had made, the calf, I took and burnt it in fire, and stamped it, grinding it very small, until it was as fine as dust: and I cast the dust thereof into the brook that descendeth from the mount.
Na chonset nau bonglim chu kalan nen lah a meiyin ka halvam tan ahi. Mei kihalna vutvai abonchan kalan molchung akona vadung twi a kasep lhatan ahi.
22 And at Taberah, and at Massah and at Kibroth-hattaavah, have ye been provoking the Lord to wrath.
Massah, Taberah le Kibroth-hattavah muna jong Pakai doumah nabol uvin ahi.
23 And when the Lord sent you from Kadesh-barnea', saying, Go up and take possession of the land which I have given you: then rebelled ye against the order of the Lord your God, and ye believed not in him, and ye hearkened not to his voice.
Chuin Kadesh-barnea muna Pakaiyin hiche thupeh mangchan nasol tauvin ahi: Chetou un keiman kapehna gamkhu galo tauvin. Hinlah Pakai, Pathen thupeh nah sah louvin hinkho namang uvin ahi.
24 Rebellious have ye been against the Lord, from the day that I have known you.
Henge, Pakai doumah jeng nabol uve tihi keiman kahin he jing in ahi.
25 And I threw myself down before the Lord those forty days and forty nights, which I threw myself down; because the Lord had said that he would destroy you.
Hijeh achu nisomli le jan somli Pakai henga ka bohkhup in ahi, ajeh chu Pakaiyin nabonchauva thagam ding na got’u ahi.
26 And I prayed unto the Lord, and said, O Lord Eternal, destroy not thy people and thy heritage, which thou hast redeemed through thy greatness, which thou hast brought forth out of Egypt with a mighty hand.
Pakai henga hiti hin kataove, O thaneipen Pakai, hiche mite hi sugam louvin, hinghoi tauvin. Amaho hi namite ahiuve. Chule amaho hi nagoulupen Egypt gam'a nahuh doh’a naban thahat pana nahin puidoh ahiuve.
27 Think of thy servants, of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Jacob; turn not unto the stubbornness of this people, nor to its wickedness, nor to its sin:
Hiche mite chonsetna leh lungtahna akon in ngaidam tan, chule ka puluiyu Abraham, Isaac le Jacob geldoh in, ati.
28 Lest [the inhabitants of] the land whence thou hast brought us out say, Out of want of ability in the Lord to bring them into the land which he had promised them, and out of his hatred to them, hath he brought them out to slay them in the wilderness.
Hiche mite hi nasuh manga ahileh, Egypt miten hitia hi asei diu, ‘Israel mite athi gam tauve, ajeh chu Pakaiyin aki tepna gam'a chu apui lhung lou ahitai.’ Ahilouleh hiche mite hi Pakaiyin avetda jeh’a asuh gam ahitauve; thagam dinga apuile ahi, tia asei diu ahi.
29 Whereas they are thy people and thy heritage, whom thou hast brought out by thy mighty power and by thy outstretched arm.
Ajeh chu hiche mite hi nang man naban thahat pana Egypt gamsunga kona nahin puidoh ahiuve.
