Judges 3
1 Now these are the nations which the LORD left, to prove Israel by them, even as many of Israel as had not known all the wars of Canaan;
Hete miphunnaw teh BAWIPA ni tuk boihoeh rae Isarelnaw tanouk nahanelah a pâhlung pouh e naw doeh.
2 only that the generations of the children of Israel might know, to teach them war, at the least such as before knew nothing of it:
Taran tuknae ka thoum hoeh rae naw taran tuk a thoum nahanelah, BAWIPA ni a hruek pouh e miphunnaw teh,
3 namely, the five lords of the Philistines, and all the Canaanites, and the Sidonians, and the Hivites who lived on Mount Lebanon, from Mount Baal Hermon to Lebo Hamath.
Filistinnaw bawi panga touh hoi, Kanaannaw, Sidonnaw, Lebanon mon dawk kaawm e Hivnaw, Baalhermon mon koehoi Lebohamath lam totouh.
4 They were left, to prove Israel by them, to know whether they would listen to the commandments of the LORD, which he commanded their fathers by the hand of Moses.
BAWIPA ni a na min Mosi hno lahoi a na mintoenaw koe lawk a thui e kâpoelawknaw patetlah a tarawi maw tarawi hoeh maw tie kamnue sak nahanelah, Isarel miphunnaw tanouk nahanelah doeh.
5 The children of Israel lived among the Canaanites, the Hethites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites:
Hottelah, Isarelnaw teh Kanaannaw, Hitnaw, Amonnaw, Perizinaw, Hivnaw, Jebusitnaw rahak vah ao awh teh,
6 and they took their daughters to be their wives, and gave their own daughters to their sons and served their gods.
a canunaw hoi a kâpaluen a kâha awh, a cathutnaw hah a bawk pouh awh.
7 The children of Israel did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, and forgot the LORD their God, and served the Baals and the Asheroth.
Isarelnaw ni BAWIPA mithmu hno kahawihoeh a sak awh. BAWIPA a pahnawt awh teh, Baal, Asherah hah a bawk awh.
8 Therefore the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel, and he sold them into the hand of Cushan Rishathaim king of Aram Naharaim; and the children of Israel served Cushan Rishathaim eight years.
Hatdawkvah, BAWIPA teh Isarelnaw koe puenghoi a lungkhuek teh, Mesopotamia siangpahrang Kushan-rishathaim kut dawk a yo, Isarelnaw teh Kushan-rishathaim e san lah kum taroe touh ao awh.
9 When the children of Israel cried to the LORD, the LORD raised up a savior to the children of Israel, who saved them, even Othniel the son of Kenaz, Caleb's younger brother; and he obeyed him.
Hatei, Isarelnaw BAWIPA bout a kaw awh toteh, BAWIPA ni rungngangkung buet touh a tâco sak. Ahni teh, Kalep nawngha Kenaz capa Othniel doeh.
10 The Spirit of the LORD came on him, and he judged Israel; and he went out to war, and the LORD delivered Cushan Rishathaim king of Mesopotamia into his hand: and his hand prevailed against Cushan Rishathaim.
BAWIPA e Muitha teh a tak dawk a pha, Isarelnaw a uk teh taran a thaw khai. Mesopotamia siangpahrang Kushan-rishathaim hah BAWIPA ni a kut dawk a poe teh, a tâ.
11 The land had rest forty years. And Othniel the son of Kenaz died.
Hatdawkvah, ram teh kum 40 thung a roum. Hahoi teh, Kenaz capa Othniel teh a due.
12 The children of Israel again did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD: and the LORD strengthened Eglon the king of Moab against Israel, because they had done that which was evil in the sight of the LORD.
Hahoi Isarelnaw ni BAWIPA mithmu vah hno kahawihoehe bout a sak awh. BAWIPA ni Moab siangpahrang Eglon teh Isarelnaw tuk hanlah a kamthaw sak. Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA mithmu vah hno kahawihoehe a sak awh.
13 He gathered to him the people of Ammon and Amalek; and he went and struck Israel, and they possessed the city of palm trees.
Ammonnaw hoi Amaleknaw hah a pâkhueng teh Isarelnaw a tuk sak. Ahnimouh ni a tâ awh teh, ungkung kho hah a la pouh awh.
14 The children of Israel served Eglon the king of Moab eighteen years.
Isarelnaw teh Moab siangpahrang Eglon san lah kum 18 touh ao awh.
15 But when the children of Israel cried to the LORD, the LORD raised them up a savior, Ehud the son of Gera, the Benjamite, a man left-handed. The children of Israel sent tribute by him to Eglon the king of Moab.
Hatei, Isarelnaw ni BAWIPA bout a kaw awh teh, BAWIPA ni ahnimouh hanlah rungngangkung bout a poe. Benjamin miphun Gera capa, avoilae kut ka hno e Ehud doeh. Isarelnaw ni Ehud koehoi Moab siangpahrang Eglon hanelah hno a patawn awh.
16 Ehud made him a sword which had two edges, eighteen inches in length; and he girded it under his clothing on his right thigh.
Hahoi Ehud ni ayung dong touh ka saw ni teh avoivang kahran e tahloi hah a sin teh, aranglae khok dawk a hna thung a kawm.
17 He offered the tribute to Eglon king of Moab: now Eglon was a very fat man.
Hahoi Moab siangpahrang Eglon koe hno teh a poe. Eglon teh ka thaw poung e lah ao.
18 When he had made an end of offering the tribute, he sent away the people who bore the tribute.
Ehud ni hno a poe hnukkhu, hno aphu sak e naw a cei sak.
19 But he himself turned back from the quarries that were by Gilgal, and said, "I have a secret message for you, O king." The king said, "Keep silence." All who stood by him went out from him.
Hatei, ama teh, Gilgal kho koe e lungdon koehoi let a ban teh, Oe siangpahrang, nang hanlah arulahoi laidei hane buet touh ka sin atipouh. Hahoi taica atipouh teh, a sannaw teh ama koehoi koung a tâco awh.
20 Ehud came to him; and he was sitting by himself alone in the cool upper room. Ehud said, "I have a message from God to you, O king." He arose out of his seat.
Imthungkhu a tungkhung dawk a tahung navah, Ehud ni a tho sin teh, nang hanelah Cathut koehoi lawk buet touh ka sin ati pouh teh, ahni teh tungkhung dawk hoi hluet a thaw navah,
21 And it happened as he rose up that Ehud put forth his left hand and took the sword from his right thigh and thrust it into his belly.
Ehud ni avoilae kut hoi aranglae a phai hna thung e tahloi a rayu teh, a von dawk a thut pouh.
22 And the handle also went in after the blade; and the fat closed on the blade, for he didn't draw the sword out of his belly; and it came out behind.
A hlong hroung ka muem lah a thaw ni tahloi hah muen a kayo teh awh ei a tâco.
23 Then Ehud went forth into the porch, and shut the doors of the upper room on him, and locked them.
Hahoi Ehud alawilah a tâco teh, a onae rakhannaw pueng he a khan teh a taren pouh.
24 Now when he was gone out, his servants came; and they saw, and look, the doors of the upper room were locked; and they said, "Surely he is covering his feet in the upper room."
A ceitakhai hnukkhu a sannaw a tho teh, a onae rakhannaw he a kâtaren e a hmu awh torei teh, alouke imthungkhu dawk vai ao vah telah a pouk awh.
25 They waited until they were ashamed; and look, he did not open the doors of the upper room: therefore they took the key, and opened them, and look, their lord was fallen down dead on the earth.
Ngailawi a ring awh eiteh, a bawipa ni tho a paawng hoeh toung dawkvah, ahnimouh ni cabi a la awh teh, tho a paawng awh toteh, amamae bawi teh carawng dawk due laihoi kamlet e hah a hmu awh.
26 Ehud escaped while they waited, and passed beyond the quarries, and escaped to Seirah.
Hottelah a ring awh lahunnah, Ehud teh a la yawng toe. Lungdonnaw a tapoung teh, Seirah kho vah pou a pha.
27 It happened, when he had come, that he blew a trumpet in the hill country of Ephraim; and the children of Israel went down with him from the hill country, and he before them.
Ephraim mon dawkvah mongka a ueng teh, Isarelnaw ni a hnuk a kâbang awh teh, mon hoi a kum awh.
28 He said to them, "Follow after me; for the LORD has delivered your enemies the Moabites into your hand." They went down after him, and took the fords of the Jordan against the Moabites, and did not allow a man to pass over.
Hahoi ahni ni, ka hnukkâbang awh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, na taran Moabnaw teh BAWIPA ni ka kut dawk na poe toe atipouh. Hahoi a kâbang sin awh teh, Moab ram lah ceinae lam Jordan palang rakanae lam hah a ngang awh teh, api buet touh hai cet thai awh hoeh.
29 They struck of Moab at that time about ten thousand men, every lusty man, and every man of valor; and there escaped not a man.
Hote tueng dawk Moabnaw 10, 000 touh a thei awh. Athakaawme taminaw seng doeh, buet touh hai hlout awh hoeh.
30 So Moab was subdued that day under the hand of Israel. Then the land had rest eighty years. And Ehud judged them until he died.
Hatdawkvah, hote hnin dawk teh Moabnaw teh Isarelnaw kut dawk a sung awh. Hote ram teh kum 80 touh a roum.
31 And after him was Shamgar the son of Anath, who alone struck down six hundred men of the Philistines with an oxgoad. And he also saved Israel.
Ahni hnukkhu teh, Anath capa Shamgar a tâco teh, Filistinnaw 600 touh bongpai pasum hoi a thei awh teh, Isarel miphunnaw a hlout sak.
