< Judges 1 >
1 And it comes to pass after the death of Joshua, that the sons of Israel ask of YHWH, saying, “Who goes up for us to the Canaanite, at the commencement, to fight against it?”
Joshua thinung in, Israelten Pakai koma “Canaan mite satdinga koi phung kon masa ding ham?” tin ana dongun ahi.
2 And YHWH says, “Judah goes up; behold, I have given the land into his hand.”
Pakaiyin “Judah kon masa ding ahi, ajeh chu hiche gamhi amaho khut-a kana pehdohsa ahi,” ati.
3 And Judah says to his brother Simeon, “Go up with me into my lot, and we fight against the Canaanite—and I have gone, even I, with you into your lot”; and Simeon goes with him.
Hijeh chun Judah’in asopipa Simeon koma chun, “Keima eikipe gamsunga Canaan mite toh kisat ding kahi, neihung kithopin chujouteng nangma naki pehna gam ajong chun gal gasat khomna hite,” ati. Hiti chun Simeon’in Judah chu akithopin ahi.
4 And Judah goes up, and YHWH gives the Canaanite and the Perizzite into their hand, and they strike them in Bezek—ten thousand men;
Judah miten galmi hochu aga nokhum’un ahileh Pakaiyin Canaan mitele Periz mite chu agal ajosah in chule Bezek khopia chun galmi sangsom athat un ahi.
5 and they find Adoni-Bezek in Bezek, and fight against him, and strike the Canaanite and the Perizzite.
Hiche Bezek muna chun Adoni-Bezek lengpa chu akisat piuvin galchu anajou un chule Canaan mite leh Periz mite jong ajou uvin ahi.
6 And Adoni-Bezek flees, and they pursue after him, and seize him, and cut off his thumbs and his great toes,
Adoni-Bezek ajamdoh in, ahinlah Israelten ahin man un akhutpi leh akengpi hochu atanboh peh un ahi.
7 and Adoni-Bezek says, “Seventy kings—their thumbs and their great toes cut off—have been gathering under my table; as I have done so God has repaid to me”; and they bring him to Jerusalem, and he dies there.
Adoni-Bezek’in, “Keiman phat khat in leng somsagi hochu akhutpiu leh akengpiu hochu kanatan peh in ka-an nehna dokhang noiya alhajah ho ananeovin, keiman amaho kanabol bangin tun Pathen’in keima eile thuhtai,” ati. Amachu Jerusalem'a ana puiyun hikoma chun ana thitan ahi.
8 And the sons of Judah fight against Jerusalem, and capture it, and strike it by the mouth of the sword, and they have sent the city into fire;
Judah ten Jerusalem ana sat’un anajou'un agamu ana laovin amipite ana that gam’un chule akhopiu chu meiyin anahal-lha tauvin ahi.
9 and afterward the sons of Judah have gone down to fight against the Canaanite inhabiting the hill-country, and the south, and the low country;
Hiche jou chun achesuh uvin Negev leh lhumlam thinglhang gama cheng Canaan mite akisat piuvin ahi.
10 and Judah goes to the Canaanite who is dwelling in Hebron (and the name of Hebron [was] formerly Kirjath-Arba), and they strike Sheshai, and Ahiman, and Talmai.
Hiche jou chun Judah ten Hebron’a cheng Canaan mite agakisat piuvin, (Hiche Hebron hi tuma sanga chu Kiriath-arba anakiti ahi) hichea chun, Shesai, Ahiman le Talmai galmi ho jong chu anajou-un ahi.
11 And he goes there to the inhabitants of Debir (and the name of Debir [was] formerly Kirjath-Sepher),
Hichea kon chun amaho acheuvin Debir khopia chengho satdin akon tauve. Debir khopi jonghi masang chun amin Kiriath-sepher ana kitin ahi.
12 and Caleb says, “He who strikes Kirjath-Sepher and has captured it—then I have given my daughter Achsah to him for a wife.”
Caleb in koi hileh Kiriath-sepher gasat'a ahin lajou penpen chu kachanu Acsah hi aji dinga kapeh ding ahi, ati.
13 And Othniel son of Kenaz, younger brother of Caleb, captures it, and he gives his daughter Achsah to him for a wife.
Caleb naopa Kenaz chapa Othniel’in aga jouvin, hijeh chun Acsah chu Othniel’in akichenpi tai.
14 And it comes to pass in her coming in, that she persuades him to ask from her father the field, and she comes down off the donkey, and Caleb says to her, “What do you [want]?”
Acsah in Othniel akichenpi jouchun, Othniel chun Acsah pa koma loumun khat thum ding in Acsah chun atil’in ahi. Hiti chun Acsah chu sangan chunga kona akum lhan, chuin Caleb’in “Ipi hitam?” tin ana dongin ahi.
15 And she says to him, “Give a blessing to me; when you have given me the south land—then you have given springs of water to me”; and Caleb gives the upper springs and the lower springs to her.
Amanun jong “Thilkhat neipeh ben kati ahi, nang in Negev gam chu neipeh ahitah leh twinah phung khattoh neipeh than,” ati. Hichun Caleb in twinah achungnung leh anoinung jong apehben ahi.
16 And the sons of the Kenite, father-in-law of Moses, have gone up out of the city of palms with the sons of Judah [to] the wilderness of Judah, which [is] in the south of Arad, and they go and dwell with the people.
Judah phung miten lusolei khopi tia kihe Jericho khopi chu adalhah phat’un, Mose nupapa chilhah Ken mite chun Judah gamthip gama chun akilhonpi kit tauvin ahi. Hiti chun amaho chutoh Negev gamsunga Arad khopi koma chun agamsung mipiho chutoh agacheng khom tauvin ahi.
17 And Judah goes with his brother Simeon, and they strike the Canaanite inhabiting Zephath, and devote it; and [one] calls the name of the city Hormah.

18 And Judah captures Gaza and its border, and Askelon and its border, and Ekron and its border;
Hiche ban ajong chun Judah in Gaza, Ashkelon chule Ekron khopi holeh avela gamho chutoh alatha tauvin ahi.
19 and YHWH is with Judah, and he occupies the hill-country, but not to dispossess the inhabitants of the valley, for they have chariots of iron.
Pakai chun, Judah mite chu ana umpin hiti chun amahon thinglhang gam pumpi chu ana lokhum tauvin, ahivangin amahon sakol thih kangtalai mangchaa phaichama cheng hochu ana deldoh joupouvin ahi.
20 And they give Hebron to Caleb, as Moses has spoken, and he dispossesses the three sons of Anak there.
Mose’n ana thutep peh bangin Caleb chu Hebron ana peuvin ahi. Hiti chun Caleb in hiche muna cheng Anak chate chilhah thum hochu ana nodoh in ahi.
21 And the sons of Benjamin have not dispossessed the Jebusite inhabiting Jerusalem; and the Jebusite dwells with the sons of Benjamin, in Jerusalem, until this day.
Ahinlah Benjamin chaten vang Jerusalem’a chengho Jebus mite chu ana nodoh joupouvin, hijeh chun tuni geiyin Jerusalem khopia Jebus mitehi Benjamin mite toh achengkhom un ahi.
22 And the house of Joseph goes up—even they—to Beth-El, and YHWH [is] with them;
Joseph chilhah ten Bethel khopi anasat’un Pakaiyin ana umpiuvin ahi.
23 and the house of Joseph causes [men] to spy out Beth-El (and the name of the city [was] formerly Luz),
Amahon khopi velhi dingin mi anasol'un (Tumasanga chu Luz ana kiti ahi).
24 and the watchers see a man coming out from the city, and say to him, “Please show us the entrance of the city, and we have done kindness with you.”
Amahon khopia kona hung potdoh mikhat chu ana kihou piuvin, “Hiche khopi lutna ding lampi neihil'un, achutileh keihon khotona kamusah diu nahi” atiuve.
25 And he shows them the entrance of the city, and they strike the city by the mouth of the sword, and they have sent the man and all his family away;
Hiti chun aman alutna theidiu lampi chu ahil'in, amaho hiche lampi ah chun alut'un hiche khopi sunga umjouse chu abon'in athat un, hiche mipa chule ainsung mite sevang ahing hoijun ahi.
26 and the man goes to the land of the Hittites, and builds a city, and calls its name Luz—it [is] its name to this day.
Khonung in hiche mipa chu Hit mite gama aga chenglut’in, hichea chun khopi khat aphutdoh in, aman akhopi min chu Luz asah in tuni geiyin hiche minchu apuden tan ahi.
27 And Manasseh has not occupied Beth-Shean and its towns, and Taanach and its towns, and the inhabitants of Dor and its towns, and the inhabitants of Iblaim and its towns, and the inhabitants of Megiddo and its towns, and the Canaanite is desirous to dwell in that land;

28 and it comes to pass, when Israel has been strong, that he sets the Canaanite to forced labor, and has not utterly dispossessed it.
Israelte chu ahung hatdoh phat’un, hiche Canaan mite chu sohna anatoh sah un, hinlah gamsunga kon chun adelmang jou pouvin ahi.
29 And Ephraim has not dispossessed the Canaanite who is dwelling in Gezer, and the Canaanite dwells in its midst, in Gezer.

34 And the Amorites press the sons of Dan to the mountain, for they have not permitted them to go down to the valley;
Dan phung mite chu Amor miten thinglhang gama ale-nolut kit’un chule amaho chu phaicham ah ahung kumsuh tapouvin ahi.
35 and the Amorite is desirous to dwell in Mount Heres, in Aijalon, and in Shaalbim, and the hand of the house of Joseph is heavy, and they are for forced labor;
Amor mite chu Heres, Aijalon le Shaalbim mol lama chun chen den ding atup’un ahi. Hinlah Joseph insung chu ahung hatdoh phat’un Amor mite chu sohna atohsah tauvin ahi.
36 and the border of the Amorite [is] from the ascent of Akrabbim, from the rock and upward.
