< Deuteronomy 2 >
1 Then we turned and took our journey into the wilderness by the way to the Sea of Reeds, as Yahweh had spoken to me; we went around Mount Seir for many days.
To pacoengah Angraeng mah kai khaeah thuih ih lok baktih toengah, aicae loe amlaem o moe, tuipui kathim bang caehhaih loklam hoiah, praezaek ah a caeh o; aicae loe Seir mae taengah saning kasawk ah amhet o boeh.
2 Yahweh spoke to me, saying,
To naah Angraeng mah kai khaeah,
3 'You have gone around this mountain long enough; turn northward.
Nangcae loe hae mae taengah saning kasawk ah nam het o boeh; vaihi angqoi oh loe, aluek bangah caeh oh.
4 Command the people, saying, “You are to pass through the border of your brothers, the descendants of Esau, who live in Seir; they will be afraid of you. Therefore be careful
Kaminawk khaeah, Seir mae ah, nangmacae ih nawkamya ah kaom, Esau ih caanawk ohhaih ahmuen hoiah na caeh o tih boeh; nihcae mah nangcae to zii o tih; toe acoehaih hoiah om oh;
5 not to fight with them, for I will not give you any of their land, no, not even enough for the sole of a foot to step on; for I have given Mount Seir to Esau as a possession.
nihcae to misa angthawk o thuih hmah; nihcae ih prae to nangcae han kang paek mak ai; na khok cawhhaih kakhawt ahmuen mataeng doeh kang paek o mak ai; Seir mae loe qawk ah toep hanah Esau khaeah ka paek boeh.
6 You will purchase food from them for money, so that you may eat; you will also buy water from them for money, so that you may drink.
Caak hanah buh to nihcae khaeah phoisa hoiah ni na qan o ueloe, na caa o tih, tui doeh na qanh o pacoengah ni, na nae o tih, tiah thui paeh, tiah ang naa.
7 For Yahweh your God has blessed you in all the work of your hand; he has known your walking through this great wilderness. For these forty years Yahweh your God has been with you, and you have lacked nothing.”'
Na Angraeng Sithaw mah na ban toksakhaih nuiah tahamhoihaih ang paek o boeh; kakawk parai hae praezaek ah nam het o, tito anih mah panoek; saning quipalito thung nangcae khaeah na Angraeng Sithaw to oh pongah, angaihaih tidoeh na tawn o ai.
8 So we passed by our brothers, the descendants of Esau who live in Seir, away from the Arabah road, from Elath and from Ezion Geber. Then we turned and passed by the way of the wilderness of Moab.
To pongah Seir mae ah kaom, aimacae nawkamya ah kaom Esau ih caanawk ohhaih ahmuen to a phak o, Elath hoi Ezion-Geber vangpui hoiah azawn ah caehhaih loklam ah a caeh o pacoengah, Moab praezaek caehhaih loklam hoiah a caeh o poe.
9 Yahweh said to me, 'Do not trouble Moab, and do not fight with them in battle. For I will not give you his land for your own possession, because I have given Ar to the descendants of Lot, for their possession.'
To pacoengah Angraeng mah kai khaeah, Moab kaminawk to tavet o hmah; misatuk hanah palungphui o thui hmah; qawktoep hanah nihcae ih prae to kang paek o ai; Ar prae toep hanah, Lot khaeah ka paek boeh, tiah ang naa.
10 (The Emites lived there previously, a people as great, as many, and as tall as the Anakim;
Canghnii ah Anak kaminawk baktiah kalen, kapop parai Emim kaminawk, to ahmuen ah khosak o;
11 these also are considered to be the Rephaim, like the Anakim; but the Moabites call them the Emim.
nihcae loe Anak kaminawk baktiah, len o parai; Moab kaminawk mah loe nihcae to Emim, tiah kawk o.
12 The Horites also lived in Seir previously, but the descendants of Esau succeeded them. They destroyed them from before them and lived in their place, like Israel did to the land of his possession that Yahweh gave to them.)
Canghnii ah Horim kaminawk doeh Seir mae ah oh o toeng; toe Angraeng mah paek ih prae to qawk ah toep hanah, Israel kaminawk mah sak o ih baktih toengah, Esau ih caanawk mah doeh to kaminawk to haek o moe, nihcae ohhaih ahmuen ah khosak o.
13 “'Now rise up and go over the brook Zered.' So we went over the brook Zered.
Angraeng mah, Vaihi angthawk oh loe, Zered vacong ah caeh oh, tiah thuih. To pongah aicae loe Zered vacong hoiah a caeh o.
14 Now the days from when we came from Kadesh Barnea until we crossed the brook Zered, were thirty-eight years. It was by that time that all that generation of the men fit for fighting were gone from the people, as Yahweh had sworn to them.
Kadesh-Barnea ahmuen hoiah a tacawt o moe, Zered vacong phak karoek to, saning qui thum, tazetto akra. Angraeng mah nihcae khaeah lokkam ih baktih toengah, canghnii hoiah misatuh kaminawk loe, kaminawk ataihaih thung hoiah anghmat o boih.
15 Moreover, the hand of Yahweh was against that generation in order to destroy them from the people until they were gone.
To kaminawk anghmaa boih ai karoek to, kaminawk salak hoiah nihcae to tamit boih hanah, Angraeng mah nihcae to ban phok thuih.
16 So it happened, when all the men fit for fighting were dead and gone from among the people,
Kaminawk thung hoiah misatuh kaminawk to paduek moe, tamit boih pacoengah,
17 that Yahweh spoke to me, saying,
Angraeng mah kai khaeah,
18 'You are today to pass over Ar, the border of Moab.
vaihniah Moab prae thung ih Ar ahmuen hoiah caeh oh,
19 When you come near opposite the people of Ammon, do not trouble them or fight them; for I will not give you any of the land of the people of Ammon as a possession; because I have given it to the descendants of Lot as a possession.'”
Ammon kaminawk khaeah na phak o naah, nihcae to pahrue o hmah, raihaih doeh paek o hmah; Ammon kaminawk ih prae to nangcae han kang paek mak ai; to prae loe qawk ah toep o hanah Lot ih caanawk hanah ka paek boeh, tiah ang naa.
20 (That also is considered to be a land of the Rephaim. The Rephaim lived there previously—but the Ammonites call them Zamzummim—
To prae loe canghnii hoi haeah kaom, kalen parai kaminawk ih prae ah oh; toe Ammon kaminawk mah nihcae to Zamzummims, tiah kawk o.
21 a people as great, as many, and as tall as the Anakim. But Yahweh destroyed them before the Ammonites, and they succeeded them and lived in their place.
To kaminawk loe Anak kaminawk baktiah, len o parai, sang o moe, pop o parai; toe Angraeng mah nihcae to Ammon kaminawk hma ah anghmatsak boih; to pongah nihcae ohhaih ahmuen ah Esau caanawk khosak o.
22 This Yahweh also did for the people of Esau, who live in Seir, when he destroyed the Horites from before them, and the descendants of Esau succeeded them and have lived in their place even until today.
Nihcae Seir ah oh o naah, Angraeng mah Esau ih caanawk hanah to tiah sak pae; nihcae hmaa ah Horim kaminawk to tamit pae boih; nihcae to haek boih pacoengah, nihcae ohhaih ahmuen to Esau ih caanawk mah vaihni ni khoek to khosak o haih.
23 As for the Avvites who lived in villages as far as Gaza, the Caphtorim, who came from Caphtor, destroyed them and settled in their place.)
To baktih toengah, Hazerim hoi Azzah avang khoek to kaom, Avim kaminawk loe, Kaphtor vangpui hoiah tacawt o moe, Kaphtor kaminawk tamit boih pacoengah, nihcae ohhaih ahmuen ah khosak o.
24 “'Now rise up, go on your journey, and pass over the Valley of the Arnon; look, I have given into your hand Sihon the Amorite, king of Heshbon, and his land. Begin to possess it, and fight with him in battle.
Vaihi angthawk oh loe, Armon vapui hoiah caeh o poe ah; khenah, Amor acaeng, Heshbon siangpahrang Sihon hoi a prae loe na ban ah kang paek boeh; to pongah to ahmuen to toep oh loe, to siangpahrang to tuh oh.
25 Today I will begin to put the fear and terror of you on the peoples that are under the whole sky; they will hear news about you and will tremble and be in anguish because of you.'
Vaihniah van tlim ih kaom prae kaminawk boih mah, nangcae to zit moe, ka tasoehsak han; nihcae mah nangcae kawng thaih o naah, mawn o ueloe, paroeai tasoeh o tih, tiah ang naa.
26 I sent messengers from the wilderness of Kedemoth to Sihon, king of Heshbon, with words of peace, saying,
Kedemoth praezaek hoi Heshbon siangpahrang Sihon khaeah, laicaeh ka patoeh moe, angdaehhaih lok ka thuih pacoengah,
27 'Let me pass through your land; I will go along the highway; I will turn neither to the right hand nor to the left.
na prae thung hoiah na caehsak raeh, loklam ah ni ka caeh o poe han; banqoi bantang kang qoi o mak ai.
28 You will sell me food for money, so that I may eat; give me water for money, so that I may drink; only let me pass through on my feet;
Buh hoi tui to kai khaeah na zaw ah, phoisa hoiah ka qanh o pacoengah ni ka caak o moe, ka naek o han; khok hoiah ni ka caeh o han;
29 as the descendants of Esau who live in Seir, and as the Moabites who live in Ar, did for me; until I pass over the Jordan into the land that Yahweh our God is giving us.'
Angraeng mah paek ih prae to ka phak o thai hanah, Jordan vapui kang kaat o ai karoek to, Seir ah kaom kaminawk, Esau ih caanawk, Ar ah kaom kaminawk hoi Moab kaminawk mah ang caeh o sak baktih toengah, na caehsak raeh, tiah ka naa.
30 But Sihon, king of Heshbon, would not let us pass by him; for Yahweh your God had hardened his mind and made his heart obstinate, that he might defeat him by your might, which he has now done today.
Toe Heshbon siangpahrang Sihon mah caehsak han koeh ai; vaihniah amtueng baktih toengah, nangcae ih Angraeng Sithaw mah Sihon siangpahrang to nangcae ban ah paek han koeh pongah, a poekhaih palungthin to amtaksak moe, palung thahsak.
31 Yahweh said to me, 'Look, I have begun to deliver up Sihon and his land before you; begin to possess it, in order that you may inherit his land.'
Angraeng mah kai khaeah, Khenah, Sihon hoi a prae to nangcae ban ah kang paek amtong boeh; to prae to toep hanah, la amtong o lai ah, tiah ang naa.
32 Then Sihon came out against us, he and all his people, to fight at Jahaz.
Sihon mah aicae tuk hanah, angmah ih misatuh kaminawk boih hoi nawnto, Jahaz vangpui ah angzoh o.
33 Yahweh our God gave him over to us and we defeated him and his sons and all his people.
Aicae Angraeng Sithaw mah anih to aicae ban ah paek pongah, anih to a hum o, a capanawk hoi a misatuh kaminawk doeh a hum pae o boih.
34 We took all his cities at that time and completely destroyed every city—men and the women and the little ones; we left no survivor.
To naah anih ih vangpuinawk to a lak pae o, nongpa, nongpata, nawktanawk hoi a praenawk to maeto doeh anghmat ai ah a paro pae o boih;
35 Only the cattle we took as spoils for ourselves, along with the spoil of the cities that we had taken.
toe maitawnawk hoi vangpui thung ih hmuenmaenawk khue ni aimacae hanah a lak o.
36 From Aroer, which is on the edge of the Valley of the Arnon, and from the city that is in the valley, all the way to Gilead, there was not a city too high for us. Yahweh our God gave them into our hands.
Arnon vapui taengah kaom Aroer vangpui, vapui taengah kaom vangpuinawk hoi Gilead vangpui khoek to, a pazawk o thai ai ih vangpui maeto doeh om ai; aicae Angraeng Sithaw mah hmuennawk to aicae ban ah paek boih boeh;
37 It was only to the land of the descendants of Ammon that you did not go, as well as all the side of the Jabbok River, and the cities of the hill country—wherever Yahweh our God had forbidden us to go.
toe aicae Angraeng Sithaw mah thuih ih lok baktih toengah, Ammon kaminawk ih prae, Jabbok vapui taengah kaom prae loe tetta doeh a la pae o ai.
