Judges 20
1 Then went out all the children of Israel, and the congregation was assembled together as one man, from Dan even to Beer-sheba', with the land of Gil'ad, unto the Lord in Mizpah.
Hiche jouhin Israel chate jouse Dan napat Beersheba, chuleh Gilead gam changeijin ahung kikhom uvin, mikhat seh seh tobang'in lungkhat tah in ading hom’un ahi. Mipite chu Pakai angsungah Mizpah munnah akikhomsoh keijun ahi.
2 and there presented themselves the chiefs of all the people, of all the tribes of Israel, in the assembly of the people of God, four hundred thousand men on foot that drew the sword.
Israel phungho jouse leh mipiho jouse lah a lamkaiho chu Pathen mite kikhopna chun apangun chule chemjam lamthei sepaiho chu sang ail alhingun ahi.
3 (And the children of Benjamin heard that the children of Israel were gone up to Mizpah.) And the children of Israel said, Speak, how did this wickedness take place?
Alangkhat nah Benjamin mite chun Israel phungdang ho jouse chu Mizpah a akikhom taove tichu ajatauvin ahi. Hichun Israel mipichun hitobang thilmelse tah hi iti hung kipan ham tin adong tauvin ahi.
4 And the Levite, the husband of the woman that was murdered, answered and said, I came to Gib'ah that belongeth to Benjamin, I and my concubine, to stay one night,
Ajinu athapeh pau Levi pachun ahinseitai, “Kathaikemnu le keima hin jan-geh dinga Benjamin mite khopi Gibeah a kache lhonnin ahi.
5 When the men of Gib'ah rose against me, and beset the house round about against me by night; me they intended to slay; and my concubine they humbled, so that she died.
Hiche jan chun Gibeah mite chun kagena inchu aumkim vellun keima thading eigouvin ajonan kathaikemnuhi jankhovah in kichepnan aneijun amanu athilotai.
6 And I took hold of my concubine and cut her in pieces, and sent her about throughout all the fields of the inheritance of Israel; for they had committed incest and scandal in Israel.
Hijeh chun keiman kathaikemnu tahsa hi boh somle bohni kaso’a Israel phung somleh phungni hi kahinthot ahi. Ajeh chu hiche mite hin melsetah a hitobang gitlou nahi atohdoh u ahi.
7 Behold, ye are all here children of Israel: furnish for yourselves here advice and counsel.
Tun nangho nabonchaovin Israel mipite jousen iloding natiuvem geltauvin,” ati.
8 And all the people then arose as one man, saying, We will not go any of us to his tent, neither will we turn any of us into his house.
Hichun mipite chu abonchaovin thakhat tah in adingdohsoh keijun asamtaove, “Eiho koimacha in na ikile theilou diu ahi!
9 And now this shall be the thing which we will do to Gib'ah: We will go up against it by lot;
Amavang eihon tuahi Gibeah mite hitia hi igabol diu ahi, koipennin ikisatpi masat diuham vang isandiu ahi.
10 And we will take ten men out of every hundred throughout all the tribes of Israel, and a hundred out of every thousand, and a thousand out of every ten thousand, to procure provisions for the people; that they may do, when they come to Gib'ah of Benjamin, in accordance with all the scandalous deed that they have wrought in Israel.
Iphung jouseuva hi somlah a khatcheh galsat ho nehle chah thah le a pangding, adangsen Gibeah chunga hi phu ilah teidiu ahi, ajeh chun Benjamin mite hin Israel insunga hibang tah a hi jumna atohdoh u ahitai” atiuve.
11 So all the men of Israel were gathered against the city, associated together as one man.
Hitichun Israel pumpi chu abonchaovin akilungkhat un hiche khopi sat dingin akikhom sohtauvin ahi.
12 And the tribes of Israel sent men through all the divisions of Benjamin, saying, What wickedness is this that hath been done among you?
Israelten Benjamin mite komma chun thupole ho asol’un amaho chun, “Itobang lomma nangho hin hitobang thilsehi naboldoh u hitam?
13 Now therefore deliver up the men, those worthless people, who are in Gib'ah, that we may put them to death, and remove evil from Israel. But the children of Benjamin would not hearken to the voice of their brethren the children of Israel.
Gibeah khoa konna hitobang mi engse miphalou hochu neihin pedoh un keihon amaho chu that uvingting Israel lah thilsehi suhthengna nei uvinge” atiuve. Ahinlah Benjamin ten anahsah pouvin ahi.
14 And the children of Benjamin gathered themselves together out of the cities unto Gib'ah, to go out to battle with the children of Israel.
Hiche enghot nachun, amaho akhopi cheh uva kon in Gibeah munnah Israel satdingin ahung kikhom tauvin ahi.
15 And at that time there were numbered of the children of Benjamin out of the cities twenty and six thousand men that drew the sword, beside the inhabitants of Gib'ah, who were numbered seven hundred chosen men.
Abonchaovin chemjam lamthei cheh sangsomni le gup alhingun amaho chu Gibeah ahunglhung tauvin ahi. Amahohi khopi sunga ana umsa thepna giltah nei mi jasagi aum’un ahi.
16 Among all this people there were seven hundred chosen men lame in the right hand: every one of these could sling a stone at a hair, and would not miss.
Benjamin lah a thepna giltah nei epia jasagi hohi aveilang cheh ahiuvin, amaho hin songsena bomma song apeijuleh samjang jengjong sepka thei sepkhel lou hel cheh ahiuve.
17 And the men of Israel, beside Benjamin, were numbered four hundred thousand men that drew the sword: all these were men of war.
Israel langa Benjamin galmiho simlouvin chemjam kichoija galsat theicheh sangjali alhingun ahi.
18 And they arose, and went up to Beth-el, and asked counsel of God; and the children of Israel said, Who of us shall go up at first to the battle with the children of Benjamin? And the Lord said, Judah, at first.
Galkisat masangin Israelte chu Bethel’ah acheuvin Pathen agadongun, “Benjamin mipite khu gasat dinga koiphung pen kache masat diuham?” atiuve. Pakaiyin ahin donbutnin “Judah masading ahi” ati.
19 And the children of Israel rose up in the morning, and encamped against Gib'ah.
Hijeh chun Israelte chu matah in athouvun Gibeah kommah panmun asem taove.
20 And the men of Israel went out to battle with Benjamin; and the men of Israel put themselves in battle-array against them by Gib'ah.
Hijouchun Benjamin mitechu sat dingin Gibeah ana jon tauvin ahi.
21 And the Children of Benjamin came forth out of Gib'ah, and struck down to the ground of the Israelites on that day twenty and two thousand men.
Ahinlah akhopiu ngah’a pang Benjamin galmi hochun ahungpot doh un hiche nichun galkisatna munna chun Israelte sangsomni le sang ni athat tauvin ahi.
22 And the people the men of Israel took courage, and set themselves again in battle-array in the place where they had arrayed themselves on the first day.
Ahinlah Israelte chu khatle khat akitil touvin animasa a akisatnao mun mama achun pan alakit tauvin ahi.
23 And the children of Israel went up and wept before the Lord until the evening, and asked counsel of the Lord, saying, Shall I again approach to battle with the children of Benjamin my brother? And the Lord said, Go up against him.
Ajeh chu amaho anache uva Bethel’a Pakai angsunga nilhahgeija gakapmuva hitiahi Pakai agadoh u ahi, “Keiho kache kitnuva Benjamin tehi kagasat kitdiu ham?” aga tiuve. Pakaiyin “Cheuvin lang amaho khu gaki satpi kitnun” atipeh in ahi.
24 And the children of Israel came near against the children of Benjamin on the second day.
Hijeh chun amaho ajingchun apotdoh kitnun Benjamin mitechu agakisatpi kit un ahi.
25 And Benjamin went forth against them out of Gib'ah on the second day, and struck down to the ground of the children of Israel again eighteen thousand men: all these were men that drew the sword.
Ahin Benjamin mite chun chemjam choija galsatje themcheh Israelte chu sangsom le sang get anathat kit’un ahi.
26 Now all the children of Israel, and all the people, went up, and came unto Beth-el, and wept, and sat there before the Lord, and fasted on that day until the evening, and offered burnt-offerings and peace-offerings before the Lord.
Hiche jehchun Israelte abonchaovin acheuvin Bethel’ah anngol pummin nilhah geijin Pakai angah agakap un ahi. Amahon Pakai angah pumgo thilto leh chamna thilto jong abol'un ahi.
27 And the children of Israel inquired of the Lord, (for there was the ark of the covenant of God in those days,
Israelte chu Pakai kommah acheuvin “I-katidiu hitam?” tin aga dongun ahi. ( Hichelai achu Pakai kitepna thingkong chu Bethel munna umma ahi
28 And Phinehas, the son of Elazar, the son of Aaron, stood before it in those days, ) saying, shall I yet continue to go out to battle with the children of Benjamin my brother, or shall I forbear? And the Lord said, Go up; for tomorrow will I deliver him into thy hand.
Chuleh Aaron thempupa tupa Eleazer chapa Phinehas chu thempu hija ahi) Israelten Pakai adongun keihon kasopiteu Benjamin mitehi kasat kit ding uham ahilouleh kasatda diu hitam?” atiuvin ahi. “Jingleh che kitnun Keiman amaho khu nangho khutna kapehdoh ding ahitai,” tin Pakaiyin aseijin ahi.
29 And Israel sent men to lie in wait round about Gib'ah.
Hijeh chun Israelte Gibeah kimvel jouse ah chun chaang apang tauvin ahi.
30 And the children of Israel went up against the children of Benjamin on the third day, and put themselves in array against Gib'ah, as at previous times.
Amaho chu anithum chan nin akondoh kit’un, chule masanga apansah namun uvah chun apansa kit un ahi.
31 And the children of Benjamin went out against the people, and were drawn away from the city; and they began to smite some of the people, and kill, as at previous times, in the highways, of which one goeth up to Beth-el, and the other to Gib'ah in the field, about thirty men of Israel.
Benjamin mite chu amaho kisatpi dinga ahungkon doh phat’un akhopi uva konchun ajoldoh tauvin ahi. Hiti chun amasa anabolna bang bang uchun Israel techu tollhang leh lamlen chungah, khatchu Bethel lang jotna khatchu Gibeah langa akinunglenao munnah mi somthum tobang athat tauvin ahi.
32 And the children of Benjamin said, They are defeated before us, as at the first. But the children of Israel said, Let us flee, and draw them from the city unto the highways.
Hichun Benjamin epia hochun, “Eihon amasa bang bang chun ijoukit taove” tin asam’un ahi. Ahinla Israelte chu jamding chuleh Benjamin miten chun ahindel diu, chujongle hitia chu akhopi uva konna potdohsah nading thilgon amagon masat’u ahi.
33 And all the men of Israel rose up out of their place, and put themselves in array at Ba'al-thamar: and those that lay in wait of Israel rushed forth out of their place, out of the meadows of Gib'ah.
Israelte epia abulpi hochun Baal-tamar ahunglhun phat’un galsat nadingin panmun ahinlatoh tauvin ahi. Langkhat’ah Israelte Gibeah lhumlamma ana kisel hochu galsatdin akiselnaova kon in ahung chomdoh tauvin ahi.
34 And there came against Gib'ah ten thousand chosen men out of all Israel, and the battle was severe; but they knew not that the evil was overtaking them.
Israel epia lah a galsatna thempen hochu mi sangsom Gibeah khopi nokhum dingin asollut taovin ahi. Galkisat chu akhoh lheh jengin Benjamin ten amanthah nadiu ahilam akihet pouvin ahi.
35 And the Lord smote Benjamin before Israel; and the children of Israel destroyed of the Benjamites on that day twenty and five thousand and one hundred men: all these were those that drew the sword.
Hitichun Pakaiyin Israel mite chu Benjamin mite chungah gal ajosah in hiche nikho chun Israelten Benjamin sepaite chemjamma galsatje themcheh sangsomni le sang nga le jakhat athatnun ahi.
36 And the children of Benjamin saw that they were defeated; for the men of Israel gave place to the Benjamites, because they trusted unto those that lay in wait whom they had set against Gib'ah.
Hichun Benjamin ten gal aleldiu chu akimuchet tauvin ahi. Israelte chun Gibeah nokhum dinga changpanga akoihou chu akisonpi jeh un Benjamin epia hoa konchun anung chonnun ahi.
37 And those in ambush hastened, and spread themselves over Gib'ah; and those that lay in wait moved along, and smote all the city with the edge of the sword.
Hijouchun ana changpang ho jouse chu muntinna kon in ahungpot doh’un khopi sunga umjouse chu athat tauvin ahi.
38 Now there was an understanding between the men of Israel and those that lay in wait, that they should make an abundance of columns of smoke rise up out of the city.
Amahon ana kihoutoh masat nao dungjuijin khopi sunga chun meikong khu lentah agah kondoh sah tauvin ahi.
39 And when the men of Israel turned round in the battle, and Benjamin began to smite and kill of the men of Israel about thirty persons; for they said, Surely they are entirely defeated before us, as in the first battle:
Israelten hiche meikhu chu amuphat un, amaho ahung kileheijun Benjamin sepaiten Israel te somthum tobang athat’un ahileh “eihon ina kisattonao masa tobanga chu tua jong ijokitnu ahitai tin kholhang asam tauvin ahi.”
40 Then began the cloud to arise up out of the city as a pillar of smoke; and when the Benjamites looked behind them, behold, the flames of all the city were ascending up to heaven.
Ahinlah Benjamin epia hochu akinung hei uva avetnuva ahileh khopi sung muntinna konna meikhu kitungdoh jengchu amu uvin ahi.
41 And when the men of Israel turned again, the men of Benjamin were amazed; for they saw that the evil had overtaken them.
Israel mitechu akinung heijun akisatpi tauvin ahi. Hichephat chun Benjamin mite chun amanthah nadiu chu ahunglhunga ahitai ti ahedoh tauvin ahileh atija lheh taove.
42 Therefore they turned round before the men of Israel unto the way to the wilderness; but the battle overtook them; and those who came out of the cities destroyed them in the midst of them.
Hijeh chun akinung heijun Israel mitea konchun ajam’un gammang lah adel tauvin ahi. Ahinla ajamdoh joupouvin ahi, chuleh akhopi vella konna hungdoh hojongchu aban thagam tauvin ahi.
43 They enclosed the Benjamites round about, chased them, they overtook them in their places of rest, as far as opposite to Gib'ah toward the rising of the sun.
Israel miten Benjamin mite chu aum kimvel’un, chuleh adellun Gibeah solanga apha paovin,
44 And there fell of Benjamin eighteen thousand men: all these were men of valor.
Hiche ni chun Benjamin mite lah a galhat penho sangsomle sang-get athat tauvin ahi.
45 And they turned and fled toward the wilderness unto the rock of Rimmon; and they gleaned of them in the highways five thousand men; and they pursued hard after them as far as Gid'om, and slew of them two thousand men.
Ahoidoh hochu gammang la Rimmon songpi beldingin ajamtauvin ahi, ahinla Israelten amaho lah a sang nga chu lampiah athatpa tauvin ahi. Amahon adelpeh kit nalaijun Gidom kommah sangni anathat kit nalaijun ahi.
46 So that all who fell on that day of Benjamin were twenty and five thousand men that drew the sword: all these were men of valor.
Hiche nikho chun Benjamin phungmi chemjam mangcha a galsat hatcheh sangsomni le sang nga athiuvin,
47 But six hundred men turned and fled into the wilderness unto the rock Rimmon, and they abode on the rock Rimmon four months.
Amoh cheng mi jagup chu Rimmon songpi langah ajamlut un hichea chun lha li sungin achengun ahi.
48 And the men of Israel turned again upon the children of Benjamin, and smote them with the edge of the sword, as well the men of every city, as the beasts, and all that was found: also all the cities that they came upon did they set on fire.
Chuleh Israel techu ahung kile uvin khopiho sunga cheng jouse ahin ban thaovin, mipi ahin gancha ahin amu mang uchu abantha soh jengun ahi. Amahon ahunglut lutnao khopi jouse jongchu ahin ban hallhah jengun ahi.
