< Joshua 6 >

1 And Jericho shuts itself up, and is shut up, because of the presence of the sons of Israel—none going out, and none coming in.
Jerikho ngawn Israel ca rhoek loha tlaeng la a tlaeng aka voei aka bal khaw om voel pawh.
2 And YHWH says to Joshua, “See, I have given Jericho and its king into your hand—mighty men of valor,
Te vaengah Joshua te BOEIPA loh, “So lah, Jerikho neh a manghai kah tatthai hlangrhalh te na kut ah kan tloeng coeng.
3 and you have surrounded the city—all the men of battle—going around the city once; thus you do [for] six days;
Te dongah caemtloek hlang boeih loh khopuei ke hil uh lamtah khopuei te voei khat vael uh. Te tlam te hnin rhuk khuiah saii.
4 and seven priests carry seven horns of the rams before the Ark, and on the seventh day you go around the city seven times, and the priests blow with the horns,
Te vaengah khosoih parhih loh jubilee tuki parhih te thingkawng hmai ah khawt uh saeh. Tedaea hnin rhih dongkah khopuei voei rhih vael uh vaengah tuki te khosoih rhoek loh ueng uh saeh.
5 and it has been, in the prolonging of the horn of the ram, in your hearing the voice of the horn, all the people shout [with] a great shout, and the wall of the city has fallen under it, and the people have gone up, each straight before him.”
Jubilee kia ueng vetih tuki ol na yaak na yaak uh vaengah pilnam boeih te tamlung neh bungbung yuhui uh saeh. Te vaengah khopuei vongtung te cungku vetih pilnam te tluektluek cet uh bitni,” a ti nah.
6 And Joshua son of Nun calls to the priests and says to them, “Carry the Ark of the Covenant, and seven priests carry seven horns of the rams before the Ark of YHWH”;
Te dongah Nun capa Joshua loh khosoih rhoek tea khue tih, “Paipi thingkawng te kawt uh lamtah khosoih parhih loh jubilee tuki parhih te BOEIPA kah thingkawng hmai ah kawt uh phai saeh,” a ti nah.
7 and He said to the people, “Pass over, and go around the city, and he who is armed passes over before the Ark of YHWH.”
Te phoeiah pilnam te, “Lan uh lamtah khopuei ke hil uh. Aka pumcum tangtae loh BOEIPA thingkawng hmai ah cet saeh,” a ti nah tiha uen.
8 And it comes to pass, when Joshua speaks to the people, that the seven priests carrying seven horns of the rams before YHWH have passed over and blown with the horns, and the Ark of the Covenant of YHWH is going after them;
Joshua loh pilnam tea uen phoei van atah jubilee tuki parhih aka kawt khosoih loh BOEIPA hmai la khong uh tih tuki tea ueng uh. Te phoeiah BOEIPA kah paipi thingkawng hnuk te a vai uh.
9 and he who is armed is going before the priests blowing the horns, and he who is gathering up is going after the Ark, going on and blowing with the horns;
Aka pumcum tangtae ngawn tah lamhma la khong uh. Tuki aka ueng khosoih rhoek khaw thingkawng hnukah vai hamla rhutrhut cet uh tih tuki tea ueng uh.
10 and Joshua has commanded the people, saying, “Do not shout, nor cause your voice to be heard, nor does a word go out from your mouth, until the day of my saying to you, Shout! Then you have shouted.”
Tedae pilnam te Joshua loh a uen tih, “Yuhui uh boeh, na ol yaak sak uh boeh. Nangmih taengah ka thui tue a pha hlan khuiah na ka dong lamloh olka puut boel saeh. Yuhui ka ti daengah ni na yuhui uh eh.
11 And the Ark of YHWH goes around the city, going around once, and they come into the camp, and lodge in the camp.
Te dongah BOEIPA kah thingkawng te a hil puei tih khopuei te voei khata vael phoeiah rhaehhmuena paan uh tih rhaehhmuen ah rhaeh uh,” a ti nah.
12 And Joshua rises early in the morning, and the priests carry the Ark of YHWH,
Joshua te mincang ah thoo bal tih BOEIPA kah thingkawng khosoih rhoek te a khuen.
13 and seven priests carrying seven horns of the rams before the Ark of YHWH are walking, going on, and they have blown with the horns—and he who is armed is going before them, and he who is gathering up is going behind the Ark of YHWH—going on and blowing with the horns.
Te vaengah jubilee tuki parhih aka kawt khosoih parhih te BOEIPA kah thingkawng hmai ah cet cet uh tih, tuki tea ueng uh. Amih hmai kah aka cet tih aka pumcum tangtae tah BOEIPA thingkawng hnukah caeh hamla tingtun uh tih a caeh caeh doela tuki tea ueng uh.
14 And they go around the city once on the second day, and return to the camp; thus they have done [for] six days.
A pabae khohnin ah khaw khopuei te voei khata hil uh bal tih rhaehhmuen la bal uh. Te tlam te hnin rhuka saii uh.
15 And it comes to pass, on the seventh day, that they rise early, at the ascending of the dawn, and go around the city, according to this manner, seven times; (only on that day have they gone around the city seven times);
A hnin rhih dongkah mincanga pha vaengah thoo uh tih khopuei te voei rhiha tiktamnah hila hil uh. Tekah khohnin dongah ni khopuei te voei rhih dawka hil uh.
16 and it comes to pass, at the seventh time, the priests have blown with the horns, and Joshua says to the people, “Shout! For YHWH has given the city to you;
A voei rhih dongah tah khosoih rhoek loh tuki tea ueng uh. Te vaengah pilnam te Joshua loh, “Khopuei he BOEIPA loh nangmih m'paek coeng dongah yuhui uh.
17 and the city has been devoted, it and all that [is] in it, to YHWH; only Rahab the harlot lives, she and all who [are] with her in the house, for she hid the messengers whom we sent;
Te vaengah khopuei neh a khuikah aka om boeih te BOEIPA taengah yaehtaboeih la boeih om. Tedae pumyoi Rakhab longtah puencawn rhoi tea thuh tih a tueih dongah amah neh a im kah boeih tah hing uh saeh.
18 and surely you have kept from the devoted thing, lest you devote [yourselves], and have taken from the devoted thing, and have made the camp of Israel become a devoted thing, and have troubled it;
Tedae yaehtaboeih te tah nangmih loh ngaithuen uh. Yaehtaboeih te loh ham na yakvawt uh koinih Israel kah rhaehhmuen te yaehtaboeih la na khueh uh vetih na lawn uh ve.
19 and all the silver and gold, and vessels of bronze and iron—it [is] holy to YHWH; it comes into the treasury of YHWH.”
Cak neh sui khaw, rhohum hnopai neh thicung boeih tah BOEIPA kah hnocim la BOEIPA kah thakvoh khui ah kun sak saeh,” a ti nah.
20 And the people shout, and blow with the horns, and it comes to pass, when the people hear the voice of the horn, that the people shout [with] a great shout, and the wall falls under it, and the people goes up into the city, each straight before him, and they capture the city;
Te dongah pilnam loh a yuhui vaengah tuki tea ueng uh. Tuki ol te pilnam loh a yaak vaengah pilnam loh tamlung neh bukbuk yuhui uh. Te vaengah vongtung te a dang lamkah loh cungku. Te dongah pilnam loh khopuei khuila tluek tluek boeih kun uh tih khopuei tea buem uh.
21 and they devote all that [is] in the city, from man even to woman, from young even to aged, even to ox, and sheep, and donkey, by the mouth of the sword.
Te vaengah khopuei khuikah huta, tongpa, camoe, patong khaw, vaito, tu neh laak khaw cunghang ha neh boeiha thup uh.
22 And Joshua said to the two men who are spying out the land, “Go into the house of the woman, the harlot, and bring out the woman from there, and all whom she has, as you have sworn to her.”
Te vaengah khohmuen aka hip hlang panit taengah Joshua loh, “Pumyoi nu im la kun rhoi lamtah anih taengkah na caeng rhoi vanbangla tekah huta neh anih taengkah aka om boeih te pahoi hang khuen rhoi,” a ti nah.
23 And the young men, those spying, go in and bring out Rahab, and her father, and her mother, and her brothers, and all whom she has; indeed, they have brought out all her relatives, and place them at the outside of the camp of Israel.
Te dongah cadong longyam rhoi te cet rhoi tih Rakhab neh a manu a napa khaw, a nganpa rhoek neh anih taengah aka om boeih khaw a huiko rhoek boeih khaw a khuen rhoi tih Israel rhaehhmuen tollong aha khueh rhoi.
24 And they have burned the city with fire, and all that [is] in it; only, the silver and the gold, and the vessels of bronze, and of iron, they have given [to] the treasury of the house of YHWH;
Khopuei neh a khuikah aka om boeih te hmai neha hoeh uh. Tedae cak neh sui khaw, rhohum hno neh thicung khaw BOEIPA im kah thakvoh dongah a khueh uh.
25 and Rahab the harlot, and the house of her father, and all whom she has, Joshua has kept alive; and she dwells in the midst of Israel to this day, for she hid the messengers whom Joshua sent to spy out Jericho.
Tedae pumyoi Rakhab neh a napa cako neh anih taengkah aka om boeih tah Jerikho hip ham Joshua kah a tueih puencawn rhoi tea thuh dongah Joshua loh a hlun tih tihnin due Israel lakli ah kho a sak.
26 And Joshua adjures [them] at that time, saying, “Cursed [is] the man before YHWH who raises up and has built this city, [even] Jericho; he lays its foundation in his firstborn, and he sets up its doors in his youngest.”
Te vaeng tue ah Joshua loh a toemngam tih, “U khaw thoo tih Jerikho khopuei aka thoh hlang tah BOEIPA mikhmuh ah thaephoei thil la om ni. A caming neha toong rhoi vetih a canoi nen ni thohkhaih khaw a thoh pueng eh,” a ti.
27 And YHWH is with Joshua, and his fame is in all the land.
BOEIPA loh Joshua taengaha om van dongah kho takuem ah a mingthangnah khaw om.
