< Numbers 2 >

1 Then Yahweh said this to Aaron and Moses/me:
Hichun Pakaiyin Mose le Aaron chu thu hicheng a hin hilchahna aneitan ahi:
2 “When the Israelis set up their tents, they should set them up in areas that surround the Sacred Tent, but not close to it. The people of each tribe must set up their tents in a different area. Each tribe must erect in that area a banner of their own clan and a flag that represents their tribe.
“Israelten ngahmun asem teng uleh, ama ama phung kai cheh a umding ahiuve. Aphung phung leh ama ama insung micheng chu ama ama ponbuh noija khosa cheh ding ahiuve. Aphung aphung a kihomtohho chun angahmun cheh uchu kikhop khomna houbuh pangli kiemvel a akisem ding u ahi, hinlah hichu kikahjep hiding ahi.
3 The people of the tribes of Judah, Issachar, and Zebulun must set up their tents on the east side of the Sacred Tent, close to their tribal flags. These are the names of the leaders of those tribes and the number of soldiers whom they will lead: Nahshon, the son of Amminadab, will be the leader of the 74,600 men of the tribe of Judah.
Kikhop khomna ponbuh niso lama ngahmun semding phungho chu Judah, Issachar leh Zebulun hidiu ahi. Anoia hohi amin kikhum galsat ding jat, aphungmin uleh alamkai hou chu ahiuve. Judah Amminadab chapa Nahshon 74,600

5 Nethanel, the son of Zuar, will be the leader of the 54,500 men of the tribe of Issachar.
Issachar Zuar chapa Nethanel 54,400
6
7 Eliab, the son of Helon, will be the leader of the 57,400 men of the tribe of Zebulun.
Zebulun Helon chapa Eliab 57,400
8
9 So there will be 86,400 troops on the east side [of the Sacred Tent]. Whenever the Israelis move to a new location, those three tribes must go in front of the others.
Judah phung lamkaina noiya galsat mi ahung kikhom jat chu mihem 186,400 ahi. Israelten ngahmun thah ajot a asemji teng uleh hiche phung thumho leh alamkai hou hi mapui a pang ding u ahi.
10 The tribes of Reuben, Simeon, and Gad must set up their tents on the south side of the Sacred Tent, close to their tribal flags. These are the names of the leaders of those tribes and the number of men whom they will lead: Elizur, the son of Shedeur, will be the leader of the 46,500 men of the tribe of Reuben.
Reuben, Simeon leh Gad chu kikhop khomna ponbuh lhanglam a ngahmun sem a pangding phungho chu ahiuvin, aphungjem u noi cheh a um cheh ding ahiuve. Anoia hohi galsat ding a amin kikhum jat, aphungmin uleh alamkai hou chu ahiuve. Reuben Shedeur chapa Elizur 46,500
Simeon Zurishaddai chapa Shelumiel 59,300
12 Shelumiel, the son of Zurishaddai, will be the leader of the 59,300 men of the tribe of Simeon.
14 Eliasaph, the son of Deuel, will be the leader of the 45,650 men of the tribe of Gad.
Gad Deuel chapa Eliasaph 45,650
16 So there will be 151,450 troops on the south side of the Sacred Tent. Those three tribes will follow the first group [when the Israelis travel].
Reuben phung lamkaina noija galsat thei aloi loiya kikhomdoh jat chu agom a mihem 151,450 ahi. Israelte ahon a achenna jouseuva hiche phung thum hohi anina a pang ding u ahi.
17 Behind that group will walk the descendants of Levi, who will carry the Sacred Tent. The Israelis will march in the same order that they always set up their tents. Each tribe will carry its own flag.
Chuleh houponbuh Leviten aput uchu ngahmun lailung a pat a hung kipudoh ding ahi. Phung jouse ngahmun ana kison bang cheh u sukeh louhel a ama ama phung jem noicheh a kitol diu ahi.
18 The tribes of Ephraim, Manasseh, and Benjamin must set up their tents on the west side of the Sacred Tent, close to their tribal flags. These are the names of the leaders of those tribes and number of men whom they will lead: Elishama, the son of Ammihud, will be the leader of the 40,500 men of the tribe of Ephraim.
Kikhop khomna ponbuh lhum lama ngahmun semding phungho chu Ephraim, Manasseh leh Benjamin hidiu ahin, aphungjem u noi cheh a um cheh ding ahiuve. Anoia hohi amin kikhum galsat ding jat, aphungmin uleh alamkai hou chu ahiuve. Ephraim Ammihud chapa Elishama 40,500
20 Gamaliel, the son of Pedahzur, will be the leader of the 32,200 men of the tribe of Manasseh.
Manasseh Pedahzur chapa Gamaliel 32, 200
22 Abidan, the son of Gideoni, will be the leader of the 35,400 men of the tribe of Benjamin.
Benjamin Gideoni chapa Abidan 35,400
24 So there will be 108,100 troops on the west side of the Sacred Tent. Those three tribes will follow the second group, [behind the descendants of Levi].
Ephriam phung lamkaina noija galsat thei aloi loiya kikhomdoh jat chu agom a mihem 108,100 ahi. Israelte ahon a achenna jouseuva hiche phung thum hohi athumna a pang ding u ahi.
25 The tribes of Dan, Asher, and Naphtali must set up their tents on the north side of the Sacred Tent, close to their tribal flags. These are the names of the leaders of those tribes and the number of men whom they will lead: Ahiezer, the son of Ammishaddai, will be the leader of the 62,700 men of the tribe of Dan.
Kikhop khomna ponbuh sahlama ngahmun semding phungho chu Dan, Asher leh Naphtali hidiu ahin, aphungjem u noi cheh a um cheh ding ahiuve. Anoia hohi amin kikhum galsat ding jat, aphungmin uleh alamkai hou chu ahiuve. Dan Ammishaddai chapa Ahiezer 62,700
27 Pagiel, the son of Ocran, will be the leader of the 41,500 men of the tribe of Asher.
Asher Ocran chapa Pagiel 41,500
29 Ahira, the son of Enan, will be the leader of the 53,400 men of the tribe of Naphtali.
Naphtali Enan chapa Ahira 53,400
31 So there will be 157,600 troops on the north side of the Sacred Tent. Those three tribes will be last. They must carry their own flags when the Israelis travel.”
Dan phung lamkaina noija galsat thei aloi loiya kikhomdoh jat chu agom a mihem 157,600 ahi. Israelte ahon a achenna jouseuva aphungjem noi cheh uva hiche phung thum hohi anukhahpen a pang ding u ahi.
32 So there were 603,550 Israeli men who were able to fight who were listed according to their families’ ancestors.
Agomlam tah in, aloi loiya um Israelte, ainsung cheh uva kon kijihlutho chu abonchauva gomsoh in mihem 603,550 alhing uve.
33 But just as Yahweh had commanded, the names of the descendants of Levi were not included.
Pakai thu peh bang chun Levite vang chu amin u akisim tha tapon ahi.
34 The Israelis did everything that Yahweh had told Moses/me. They set up their tents close to their tribal flags, and when they traveled [to a new location, they walked] with their own clans and family groups.
Hitichun Pakai in Mose ana thupeh bang bang chun Israelten imajouse abolsohkei tauvin ahi. Pakai thupeh jui in ama ama insung leh phung jem noi cheh a chun akijotji un chuleh ngahmun jong asemji tauve.
