Joshua 23
1 And it came to pass, after many days, when Yahweh had given rest unto Israel, from all their enemies round about, —and, Joshua, had become old, advanced in days,
Kum phabep ache nungin Pakaiyin Israel mipite hi agal mihouva kon in akicholdo sahtan ahi. Joshua jong ateh lheh tan,
2 that Joshua called for all Israel, for their elders, and for their heads, and for their judges, and for their officers, —and said unto them, I, am old, advanced in days;
Aman Israel te upa hole lamkaiho thutan hole vaihom ho akoukhommin, aman amaho komma hitihin asije, “Tuhin keima kateh lhehtai,
3 but, ye, have seen—all that Yahweh your God hath done unto all those nations, because of you, —for, Yahweh your God, is he that hath fought for you.
Pakai Pathenin keima phat sunga hi itobang thil nabolpeh uham ti nanghon namusoh keijun ahi. Pakai naPathennin namelma teo gal nasat peh un ahi.
4 Behold, I have allotted to you these nations which remain, as an inheritance, for your tribes, —from the Jordan, and all the nations which I have cut off, even unto the great sea, at the going in of the sun.
Keiman imelma teo gam ilahsah houleh ihinlah dinghou nachen nao gam dingin kahin hoppeh taove agamsunghi Jordan vadunga pat na Mediterranean twikhanglen lhumlam gei ahi.
5 But, Yahweh your God—he, will thrust them out from before you, and drive them away out of your sight, —so shall ye possess their land, as Yahweh your God spoke unto you.
Tun hichehi nangho gam hiding ahitai, ajeh chu na Pakai na Pathennu amatah in agamsung miho abonna nadeldoh pehdingu ahi. Nanghon agammuhi Pakai na Pathenun nateppeh banguva nalodiu ahitai.
6 Therefore must ye be very firm to observe and to do all that is written in the scroll of the law of Moses, —so as not to turn aside therefrom, to the right hand or to the left;
Hijeh chun Mose’n danbua anajihlut banga ichepi theina diuvin chingthei jep uhitin, hitia chu kijethei hihen lang kiveihei hijongleh ichekhel louna diuvin chingthei uhite.
7 so as not to go in among these nations, these which remain with you, —and, with the name of their gods, shall ye neither make memorial nor put on oath, and neither serve them, —nor bow down to them.
Hijeh chun hiche gamsunga um nalaiho lah a ilhah manglou nadiuvin dingdet uhite. Amaho semthu pathenho nahouthei loudiu le akinna jong nakimanchah loudiu, kihahselna a jong naman theiloudiu amin na amin ujong naphah poh theilou diu ahi.
8 But, unto Yahweh your God, must ye cleave, —as, ye have done until this day;
Amavang na Pakai na Pathen chu tunigeija dettah a nahin kolchah bang uva hi nakolchah jing ding ahi.
9 therefore hath Yahweh dispossessed, from before you, nations great and strong, —but, as for you, not a man hath stood before you, until this day.
Ajeh chu Pakaiyin nam hattah tahho nahin deldoh pehun koimachan nang hohi alonaje nahi pouvin ahi.
10 One man of you, can chase a thousand, —for, Yahweh your God, is he that fighteth for you, as he spake to you.
Nangho mikhat seh injong misangkhat nadeljam theidiu ahi, ajeh chu Pakai na Pathennun akitepna bangin nagal’u nasatpeh taovin ahi.
11 Take diligent heed, therefore, unto your souls, —to love Yahweh your God.
Hijeh chun na Pakai na Pathennu nangailut jing nadiuvin, chingtheijun,
12 But, if ye, do in any wise turn back, and cleave unto the remnant of these nations, these which remain with you, —and intermarry with them, and go in with them, and, they, with you;
“Amavang nangho ama akonna nakihei manguva nalahuva nang hotoh umkhom namdangho chondan nalahuva amahotoh nakichento uva ahileh,
13 know, that Yahweh your God will no further drive out these nations from before you, —but they will become unto you a snare and a hook, and a goad in your sides, and thorns in your eyes, until ye have perished from off this goodly soil, which Yahweh your God hath given unto you.
Hiteng chuleh nakihet diu chu Pakai na Pathenun amaho chu nanodoh pehloudiu ahitai. Hititah sanga chu amaho joh hi nakipal nadiuva nalhemlhauva hungpang diu, namit uva lingle khaova hungpang diu chuleh akhonnale Pakai na Pathenun napehnao gamphalaija konna delmanga nahung umdiu ahi.
14 But lo! I am going to-day, in the way of all the earth, —ye must acknowledge, therefore, with all your heart and with all your soul, that there hath not failed a single thing, out of all the good things which Yahweh your God spake concerning you, the whole, hath come to pass to you, there hath not failed thereof, a single thing.
“Vannoi leiset chena dolla keimahi kahung thivah ding ahitai. Pakai na Pathennun akitepna jouse nasuhbukip taovin khatcha jong athonna aumpoi tihi nalung thimmu giltah in naheuve.
15 But it shall be that, as all the good things have come unto you, which Yahweh your God spake unto you, so, will Yahweh bring upon you all the evil things, until he hath destroyed you from off this goodly soil, which Yahweh your God hath given unto you.
Ahinlah Pakai na Pathennun akitepna banga thilpha jouse napeh bang’uva hi, athu na ngailou uleh nachung uva hahsatna ahin lhunkhum sahdiu ahi. Aman gampha napeh naova konna hi nasuhmang diu ahi.
16 When ye transgress the covenant of Yahweh your God which he hath commanded you, and go and serve other gods, and bow yourselves down unto them, then will the anger of Yahweh kindle upon you, and ye will perish quickly, from off the good land which he hath given unto you.
Nanghon Pakai na Pathennu kitepna hi nanit lou uva semthu pathen ho nahin hou uva akin nahin bolluva ahileh nangho douna-a alunghan na mei hung koujah jengding chuteng lechun aman napehnao gampha tah a konna hi namahthah diu ahi.
