Joshua 24
1 And Joshua gathers all the tribes of Israel to Shechem, and calls for [the] elderly of Israel, and for his heads, and for his judges, and for his authorities, and they station themselves before God.
Hahoi Joshua ni Isarel miphunnaw abuemlah Shekhem kho dawk a kamkhueng sak teh, Isarel miphun dawk e kacuenaw, kaukkungnaw, lawkcengkungnaw bawinaw hah a kaw teh, ahnimouh ni Cathut e hmalah a hnai awh.
2 And Joshua says to all the people, “Thus said YHWH, God of Israel: Beyond the River your fathers have dwelt of old—Terah father of Abraham and father of Nachor—and they serve other gods;
Hahoi Joshua ni taminaw abuemlah koe a pathang e teh, Isarelnaw e BAWIPA ni kâ a poe e teh, Abraham hoi Nahor e a na pa Terah koehoi kamtawng teh, nangmae mintoenaw ni, a yan e tueng dawk tuipui namran lah ao awh teh, alouke cathutnaw hah a bawk awh.
3 and I take your father Abraham from beyond the River, and cause him to go through all the land of Canaan, and multiply his seed, and give Isaac to him.
Nangmae na pa Abraham teh tuipui namran lah, ka kaw teh, Kanaan ram e hmuen koe ka hrawi teh, ahnie miphunnaw ka pung sak teh Isak hah ka poe.
4 And I give Jacob and Esau to Isaac; and I give Mount Seir to Esau, to possess it; and Jacob and his sons have gone down to Egypt.
Isak koehoi Jakop hoi Esaw hah kai ni ka poe teh, Esaw hai Seir mon hah ka poe. Jakop hoi ahnie canaw ni Izip ram lah a cei awh.
5 And I send Moses and Aaron, and plague Egypt, as I have done in its midst, and afterward I have brought you out.
Mosi hoi Aron teh kai ni ka patoun teh, Izip taminaw koe a sak e patetlah Izip ram hah ka toun hnukkhu nangmanaw hah na tâco sak.
6 And I bring out your fathers from Egypt, and you go to the sea, and the Egyptians pursue after your fathers, with chariot and with horsemen, to the Red Sea;
Telah nangmae mintoenaw hah Izip ram hoi kai ni ka tâco sak teh, ahnimouh ni Edom tuipui koe a pha awh. Izip taminaw ni rangleng hoi marangransanaw hoi tuipui totouh a pâlei awh.
7 and they cry to YHWH, and He sets thick darkness between you and the Egyptians, and brings the sea over him, and covers them, and your eyes see that which I have done in Egypt; and you dwell in a wilderness [for] many days.
BAWIPA koe a hram awh torei teh, nangmouh hoi Izip taminaw a rahak hmonae hah kai ni ka ta teh, ahnimanaw hah, tuipui hoi muen ka ramuk sak. Izip ram dawk kai ni ka sak e hno hah, namamouh roeroe ni na hmu awh. Kahrawng dawk hai atueng moikasawlah na o awh.
8 And I bring you into the land of the Amorite who is dwelling beyond the Jordan, and they fight with you, and I give them into your hand, and you possess their land, and I destroy them out of your presence.
Hathnukkhu, Jordan palang kanîtholah kaawm e Amornaw e ram dawk nangmanaw hah kai ni na hrawi teh, ahnimouh ni na tuk awh navah ahnimouh teh nangmae kut dawk kai ni na poe teh, ahnimae talai hah, nangmouh ni na la pouh awh. Ahnimouh teh nangmae hmalah, kai ni koung ka raphoe.
9 And Balak son of Zippor, king of Moab, rises and fights against Israel, and sends and calls for Balaam son of Beor, to revile you,
Moab siangpahrang Zippor e capa Balak ni a thaw teh, Isarelnaw hah a tuk teh nangmanaw hah, thoebo sak hanelah, Beor e capa BaLaam hah a kaw torei teh,
10 and I have not been willing to listen to Balaam, and he greatly blesses you, and I deliver you out of his hand.
BaLaam e lawk kai ni ka ngâi pouh hoeh dawkvah, yawhawinae hah letlang a poe teh, ahnie kut dawk hoi nangmanaw hah kai ni na hlout sak awh.
11 And you pass over the Jordan, and come to Jericho, and the possessors of Jericho fight against you—the Amorite, and the Perizzite, and the Canaanite, and the Hittite, and the Girgashite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite—and I give them into your hand.
Hahoi nangmanaw ni Jordan palang na raka teh, Jeriko kho dawk na pha toteh, Jeriko tami, Amor tami, Periz tami, Kanaan tami, Hit tami, Gigashite tami, Hiv tami, Jubusitnaw hah na tuk awh teh, ahnimanaw hah nangmae kut dawk kai ni na poe.
12 And I send the hornet before you, and it casts them out from your presence—two kings of the Amorite—not by your sword, nor by your bow.
Nangmouh dawk tahloi hoi licung awm laipalah, nangmae hmalah khoingan hah ka tha teh, Amor siangpahrang kahni touh nangmae hmalah kai ni ka pâlei.
13 And I give a land to you for which you have not labored, and cities which you have not built, and you dwell in them; you are eating of vineyards and olive-yards which you have not planted.
Nangmouh ni kho na thawng awh hoeh e khonaw hah kai ni na poe awh teh, nangmouh ni na o nah awh. Namamouh ni na ung hoeh e misur takha, olive takha naw hah, na ca awh telah, BAWIPA ni atipouh.
14 And now, fear YHWH, and serve Him, in perfection and in truth, and turn aside the gods which your fathers served beyond the River, and in Egypt, and serve YHWH;
Atuteh, Cathut hah, taket nateh, lungthin kathoung hoi, yuemkamcunae hoi bawk awh. Tuipui namran dawk, Izip ram dawk, mintoenaw ni a bawk e cathutnaw hah pahnawt nateh, BAWIPA duengma bawk awh.
15 and if [it is] wrong in your eyes to serve YHWH—choose for yourselves today whom you serve—whether the gods whom your fathers served, which [are] beyond the River, or the gods of the Amorite in whose land you are dwelling; but me and my house—we serve YHWH.”
Nahoeh pawiteh, BAWIPA hah bawk hanelah awmhoeh telah na pouk pawiteh, tuipui namran lae, mintoenaw ni a bawk e cathut, nangmouh na onae Amor ram dawk e cathutnaw thung dawk bangpatet e cathutnaw maw na bawk awh han tie hah sahnin kârawi awh leih. Kai hoi ka imthung niteh, Jehovah duengdoeh ka bawk awh han ati navah,
16 And the people answer and say, “Far be it from us to forsake YHWH, to serve other gods;
Taminaw ni alouke cathutnaw hah bawk hanelah Cathut hah pahnawtnae teh kaimouh hoi kâhlat naseh.
17 for our God YHWH [is] He who is bringing us and our fathers up out of the land of Egypt, out of a house of servants, and who has done these great signs before our eyes, and keeps us in all the way in which we have gone, and among all the peoples through whose midst we passed;
Kaimae BAWIPA ni san lah onae Izip ram hoi mintoenaw hoi kaimanaw hah na tâco sak teh, kalenpounge mitnoutnaw hah kaimae mithmu vah a kamnue sak. Kaimouh ka ceinae hmuen pueng koe, ka cei sin e miphunnaw koe na okhai.
18 and YHWH casts out the whole of the peoples, even the Amorite inhabiting the land, from our presence; we also serve YHWH, for He [is] our God.”
BAWIPA ni hai hete ram dawk kaawm e Amornaw abuemlah kaimae hmalah hoi a pâlei toe. BAWIPA hah ka bawk han. Hote BAWIPA teh kaimae Cathut doeh telah bout ati awh.
19 And Joshua says to the people, “You are not able to serve YHWH, for He [is] a most holy God; He [is] a zealous God; He does not bear with your transgression and with your sins.
Joshua ni vah nangmouh ni BAWIPA hah na bawk thai mahoeh. Hote BAWIPA teh, kathounge Cathut, dipma ka sin e BAWIPA lah ao. Nangmouh ni na payon e yonnaw hah, na ngaithoum thai mahoeh.
20 When you forsake YHWH, and have served gods of a stranger, then He has turned back and done harm to you, and consumed you, after that He has done good to you.”
Nangmouh ni BAWIPA hah na pahnawt teh, ram alouke cathutnaw hah, na bawk pawiteh, nangmouh dawk hawinae ka sak hnukkhu bout ka kamlang vaiteh, na rektap awh vaiteh na raphoe awh han telah atipouh navah,
21 And the people say to Joshua, “No, but we serve YHWH!”
Taminaw ni, telah nahoeh, BAWIPA duengdoeh ka bawk han bout ati awh.
22 And Joshua says to the people, “You are witnesses against yourselves, that you have chosen YHWH for yourselves, to serve Him,” and they say, “Witnesses!”
Joshua ni hai nangmouh ni Cathut hah bawk hanelah, na kârawi awh toe telah, namamouh hoi namamouh doeh kapanuekkhaikung lah na kaawm awh telah atipouh navah, ahnimouh ni kapanuekkhaikung lah ka o awh ati awh teh,
23 “And now, turn aside the gods of the stranger which [are] in your midst, and incline your heart to YHWH, God of Israel.”
Joshua ni telah pawiteh, nangmouh koe kaawm e ram alouke cathutnaw hah pahnawt awh nateh Isarelnaw e BAWIPA Cathut koelah na lungthin kamlang awh ati pou.
24 And the people say to Joshua, “We serve our God YHWH, and we listen to His voice.”
Taminaw ni kaimae BAWIPA hah ka bawk han. A lawk ka ngâi pouh han telah ati awh.
25 And Joshua makes a covenant with the people on that day, and lays a statute and an ordinance on it, in Shechem.
Joshua ni hat hnin vah taminaw hoi lawkkam a sak teh, Shekhem kho vah, kâlawk, phunglamnaw a hruek pouh.
26 And Joshua writes these words in the Scroll of the Law of God, and takes a great stone, and raises it up there under the oak which [is] in the sanctuary of YHWH.
Hote lawknaw hah BAWIPA e kâlawk cauk dawk a thut teh, BAWIPA e kathoungpounge hmuen teng kaawm e kathen kung rahim vah talung kalen poung a ung teh,
27 And Joshua says to all the people, “Behold, this stone is for a witness against us, for it has heard all the sayings of YHWH which He has spoken with us, and it has been for a witness against you, lest you lie against your God.”
hete talung teh maimanaw kapanuekkhaikung lah ao han. Cathut ni kâ na poe e lawk ka kuepcalah thai awh toe. Hatdawkvah nangmouh ni Cathut hah, na pahnawtnae hoi na hlout thai nahanelah, nangmanaw hah, kapanuekkhaikung lah na o han telah tami abuemlah koe a dei pouh hnukkhu,
28 And Joshua sends the people away, each to his inheritance.
amamouh lengkaleng râw a coe awh e hmuen koe bout a ban sak.
29 And it comes to pass, after these things, that Joshua son of Nun, servant of YHWH, dies, a son of one hundred and ten years,
Hathnukkhu BAWIPA e san, Nun capa Joshua teh kum 110 touh a pha teh a due.
30 and they bury him in the border of his inheritance, in Timnath-Serah, which [is] in the hill-country of Ephraim, on the north of the hill of Gaash.
Ephraim mon dawk Gaash monrui atunglah kaawm e ahnie râw a coe e, Timnath-serah kho e talai dawk a pakawp awh.
31 And Israel serves YHWH all [the] days of Joshua, and all [the] days of the elderly who prolonged days after Joshua, and who knew all the work of YHWH which He did to Israel.
Joshua e kut dawk ao nathung pueng Isarelnaw ni BAWIPA teh a bawk awh. BAWIPA ni Isarel miphunnaw hanelah a sak e naw pueng hah a panue awh teh, Joshua a due hnukkhu kahring rae kacuenaw e kut rahim hai BAWIPA hah a bawk awh.
32 And the bones of Joseph, which the sons of Israel brought up out of Egypt, they buried in Shechem, in the portion of the field which Jacob bought from the sons of Hamor father of Shechem, with one hundred kesitah; and they are for an inheritance to the sons of Joseph.
Isarel miphunnaw ni Izip ram hoi a sin e Joseph e hrunaw hah, Shekhem a napa, Hamor e canaw koe ngun tangka cum touh hoi Jakop ni a ran e Shekhem kho e talai dawk a pakawp awh. Hote talai teh, Joseph capanaw e râw talai lah ao.
33 And Eleazar son of Aaron died, and they bury him in a hill of his son Phinehas, which was given to him in the hill-country of Ephraim.
Aron e ca vaihma bawi Eleazar hai a due. Ahnie capa Phinehas hai a yunaw ni a poe e Ephraim mon, Phinehas monrui dawk a pakawp awh.
