< Judges 1 >

1 And it came to pass, after the death of Joshua, that the sons of Israel asked of Yahweh, saying, —Who shall go up for us against the Canaanites, first, to make war upon them?
Joshua thinung in, Israelten Pakai koma “Canaan mite satdinga koi phung kon masa ding ham?” tin ana dongun ahi.
2 And Yahweh said—Judah, shall go, —lo! I have delivered the land into his power.
Pakaiyin “Judah kon masa ding ahi, ajeh chu hiche gamhi amaho khut-a kana pehdohsa ahi,” ati.
3 Then said Judah, unto Simeon his brother—Come up with me into the territory allotted me, and let us make war on the Canaanites, then will, I also, go with thee, into thy territory. So Simeon went 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 went up, and Yahweh delivered the Canaanites and the Perizzites into their hand, —and they smote 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 found Adoni-bezek in Bezek, and fought with him, —and smote the Canaanites and the Perizzites.
Hiche Bezek muna chun Adoni-Bezek lengpa chu akisat piuvin galchu anajou un chule Canaan mite leh Periz mite jong ajou uvin ahi.
6 But Adoni-bezek fled, and they pursued him, —and took 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 Then said Adoni-bezek—Seventy kings, with their thumbs and great toes cut off, have been picking up crumbs under my table, as I have done, so, hath God requited me. And they brought him into Jerusalem, and he died 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 made war upon Jerusalem, and captured it, and smote it with the edge of the sword, —and, the city, they set on 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, afterwards, the sons of Judah went down to make war upon the Canaanites, —dwelling in the hill country, and in the south, and in the lowland.
Hiche jou chun achesuh uvin Negev leh lhumlam thinglhang gama cheng Canaan mite akisat piuvin ahi.
10 And Judah went against the Canaanites who were dwelling in Hebron, now, the name of Hebron, formerly, was Kiriath-arba, —and they smote 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 went from thence, against the inhabitants of Debir, —now, the name of Debir, formerly, was Kiriath-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 said, He that smiteth Kiriath-sepher, and captureth it, I will give unto him Achsah my daughter, to wife.
Caleb in koi hileh Kiriath-sepher gasat'a ahin lajou penpen chu kachanu Acsah hi aji dinga kapeh ding ahi, ati.
13 Then Othniel, son of Kenaz, Caleb’s younger brother, captured it, —and he gave him Achsah his daughter, to wife.
Caleb naopa Kenaz chapa Othniel’in aga jouvin, hijeh chun Acsah chu Othniel’in akichenpi tai.
14 And it came pass, when she came, that she moved him to ask of her father a field, and, when she alighted from off the ass, Caleb said unto her—What aileth thee?
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 said unto him—Give me a present; for, south land, hast thou given me, give me therefore pools of water. So Caleb gave her Upper-pools, and Lower-pools.
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 Now, the sons of the Kenite, father-in-law of Moses, had come up from the city of palm-trees, with the sons of Judah, into the wilderness of Judah, which is in the south of Arad, —so they went and dwelt 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 Then went Judah, with Simeon his brother, and they smote the Canaanites dwelling in Zephath, —and devoted it to destruction, and the name of the city was called Hormah.
Hiche jouchun Judah chu Simeon toh apangkhom lhon in Zephath a cheng Canaan mite chu agasat lhon in, hiche khopi chu agasumang hel lhontan ahi. Hijeh chun hiche khopi chu Hormah anasah un ahi.
18 And Judah captured Gaza with the boundaries thereof, and Ashkelon, with the boundaries thereof, —and Ekron, with the boundaries thereof.
Hiche ban ajong chun Judah in Gaza, Ashkelon chule Ekron khopi holeh avela gamho chutoh alatha tauvin ahi.
19 And it same to pass that Yahweh was with Judah, and he took possession of the hill country, —but did not dispossess the inhabitants of the vale, because they had, 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 So they gave unto Caleb Hebron, as spake Moses, —and he drave out from thence the three sons of Anak.
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 But, the Jebusites dwelling in Jerusalem, the sons of Benjamin did not drive out, —but the Jebusites have dwelt with the sons of Benjamin, in Jerusalem, unto 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 Then went up the house of Joseph—they also, —unto Bethel, —and, Yahweh, was with them.
Joseph chilhah ten Bethel khopi anasat’un Pakaiyin ana umpiuvin ahi.
23 And the house of Joseph sent to spy out Bethel, —now, the name of the city, formerly, was, Luz.
Amahon khopi velhi dingin mi anasol'un (Tumasanga chu Luz ana kiti ahi).
24 So the watchers saw a man, coming forth from the city, —and they said unto him—Shew us, we pray thee, the way to get into the city, and we will deal with thee, in lovingkindness.
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 shewed them the way to get into the city, and they smote the city, with the edge of the sword, —but, the man and all his family, they let go.
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 went into the land of the Hittites, —and built a city, and called the name thereof, Luz, that, is the name thereof, unto 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 But Manasseh took not possession of Beth-shean and her towns, nor of Taanach and her towns, nor dispossessed the inhabitants of Dor and her towns, nor the inhabitants of Ibleam, and her towns, nor the inhabitants of Megiddo, and her towns, —but the Canaanites were determined to remain in this land;
Manasseh phungin Beth-shan, Taanach, Dor, Ibleam, Megiddo sunga cheng miho ahin, avel-uva chengho ahiuvin anodoh joupouvin ahi, ajeh chu hiche muna cheng Canaan mite chun hiche gamsunga chu chenden teiding anatup’u ahi.
28 when Israel, however, had waxed strong, they put the Canaanites under tribute, —though they, dispossessed, them not.
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, dispossessed not the Canaanites who were dwelling in Gezer, —so the Canaanites remained in their midst, in Gezer.
Ephraim phung jong chun Gezer gamsunga cheng Canaan mite chu ana deldoh joupouvin, hiti chun Canaan mite chu amaho lah a chun achengjom tauvin ahi.
30 Zebulun, dispossessed not the inhabitants of Kitron, nor the inhabitants of Nahalol, —but the Canaanites remained in their midst, and came under tribute.
Zebulun phung miten jong Kitron leh Nahalol gamsunga chengho ana nodoh joupouvin, hiti chun Canaan mite chu alah uva chun achengden tauvin chule Canaan mite chu Zebulun’ten sohna atohsah tauvin ahi.
31 Asher, dispossessed not the inhabitants of Acco, nor the inhabitants of Zidon, —nor of Ahlab, nor of Achzib, nor of Helbah, nor of Aphik, nor of Rehob;
Asher phung mite chun Acco, Sidon, Ahlab, Aczib, Helbah, Aphik chule Rehob gamsunga chengho anodoh joupouvin ahi.
32 but the Asherites dwelt in the midst of the Canaanites, the inhabitants of the land, —for they dispossessed them not.
Ahin Asher phung mite chun hiche gamsunga anachengte Canaan mite chu anodoh joulou jeh uvin, alah uvah chun agachen lut tho tauvin ahi.
33 Naphtali, dispossessed not the inhabitants of Beth-shemesh nor the inhabitants of Beth-anath, but they dwelt in the midst of the Canaanites, the inhabitants of the land, —and, the inhabitants of Beth-shemesh, and of Beth-anath, became theirs, under tribute.
Hitobang machun Naphtali phung chun Beth-shemash leh Bath-anath gamsunga chengho ana nodoh joupouvin ahi. Hiti chun Canaan mite lah a chun ana chenlut tho-uvin ahi. Ahivangin, Beth-shamash leh Beth–anath mipite chu Naphtali mipite sohna anatoh sah un ahi.
34 And the Amorites forced the sons of Dan into the hill country, —for they suffered them not to come down into the vale;
Dan phung mite chu Amor miten thinglhang gama ale-nolut kit’un chule amaho chu phaicham ah ahung kumsuh tapouvin ahi.
35 and, though the Amorites were determined to remain in the hill country of Heres, in Aijalon, and in Shaalbim, yet was the hand of the house of Joseph heavy, so that they came under tribute.
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 boundary of the Amorites, was from the ascent of Akrabbim, from Sela and upwards.
Amor mite gamgi chu Akrabbim a kon in Sela ajon in hichea kon chun chunglanga ajon toupeh in ahi.
