< Joshua 5 >

1 As soon as all the kings of the Amorites on the west side of the Jordan, and all the kings of the Canaanites, who were along the coast of the Great Sea, heard that Yahweh had dried up the waters of the Jordan until the people of Israel had crossed over, their hearts melted, and there was no longer any spirit in them because of the people of Israel.
BAWIPA ni Isarel miphunnaw raka sak hanelah, Jordan palang a hak sak tie hah, Jordan palang kanîloumlah kaawm e Amor siangpahrang abuemlah, tuipui teng kaawm e Kanaan siangpahrang abuemlah ni a thai awh torei teh, a taranhawinae awm awh hoeh. Isarel miphunnaw kecu dawk a lung koung apout awh.
2 At that time Yahweh said to Joshua, “Make flint knives and once more circumcise all the males of Israel.”
Hahoi Cathut ni Joshua a kaw teh, lungtaw ramanaw sak nateh, Isarel miphunnaw vuensom bout na a pouk han atipouh.
3 Then Joshua made himself flint knives and he circumcised all the males of Israel at Gibeath Haaraloth.
Hatdawkvah, Joshua ni lungtaw ramanaw a sak teh, Gilgal e hmuen koe Isarel miphunnaw e vuensom a a pouh.
4 This is the reason Joshua circumcised them: All the males who had come out of Egypt, including all the men of war, had died in the wilderness along the way, after they came out from Egypt.
Hottelah vuensom a a pouh ngainae teh Izip ram hoi ka tâcawt e ransa tongpa pueng kahrawngum koung a due awh dawk doeh.
5 Though all the males who came out of Egypt were circumcised, still, none of the boys born in the wilderness on the way out of Egypt had been circumcised.
Hote ram dawk hoi ka tâcawt e pueng teh vuensoma e lah ao awh toe. Kahrawngum a cei awh nah ka khe e pueng teh vuensoma e lah awm hoeh rah.
6 For the people of Israel walked forty years in the wilderness until all the people, that is, all the men of war who had come out of Egypt, died, because they did not obey the voice of Yahweh. Yahweh swore to them that he would not let them see the land that he had sworn to their ancestors that he would give to us, a land flowing with milk and honey.
Izip ram hoi ka tâcawt e taran ka tuk thai e pueng teh Cathut e lawk a ngâi hoeh dawkvah be a due totouh Isarel miphunnaw kum 40 touh thung kahrawngum a kâhei awh. Cathut ni, na poe han ti teh na mintoenaw koe ka kam pouh e ram, sanutui hoi khoitui ka lawng e ram hah, hotnaw ni hmawt awh mahoeh ti teh thoe a bo.
7 It was their children that Yahweh raised up in their place that Joshua circumcised, because they had not been circumcised on the way.
Ahnimae yueng lah a canaw ni lam vah, vuensom a a awh e a hmu hoeh rah dawkvah, Joshua ni vuensom bout a a pouh.
8 When they were all circumcised, they remained where they were in the camp until they healed.
Taminaw pueng vuensom a a hnukkhu hoi, a hmâ hawihoeh roukrak rim dawk ao awh.
9 Then Yahweh said to Joshua, “This day I have rolled away the disgrace of Egypt from you.” So, the name of that place has been called Gilgal until this present day.
Cathut ni Izip ram e dudamnae nangmouh koehoi sahnin kai ni koung ka takhoe toe, telah Joshua koe atipouh. Hatdawkvah, hote hmuen teh sahnin totouh Gilgal telah ati awh.
10 The people of Israel camped at Gilgal. They kept the Passover on the fourteenth day of the month, in the evening, on the plains of Jericho.
Isarel miphunnaw teh Gilgal hmuen koevah rim a sak awh teh, hote thapa hnin hrahlaipali hnin tangmin Jeriko tanghling dawkvah ceitakhai pawi a sak awh.
11 On the day after Passover, that same day, they ate some of the produce of the land on the day, unleavened bread and roasted grain.
Ceitakhai pawi a sak awh hnukkhu, a tangtho hnin vah Kanaan kho e cakang hoi a sak awh e tawn thum hoeh e vaiyeinaw hoi capanaw hnin touh thung a ca awh.
12 The manna stopped on the day after they ate the produce of the land. There was no longer manna for the people of Israel, but they ate the produce of the land of Canaan that year.
Kanaan kho hoi ka tâcawt e a ca awh teh, a tangtho hoi teh mana teh apout toe. Hatnae kum dawk hoi Kanaan ram hoi ka tâcawt e a paw hah a ca awh.
13 When Joshua was near Jericho, he lifted up his eyes and looked, and behold, a man was standing in front of him; he had drawn his sword and it was in his hand. Joshua went to him and said, “Are you for us or for our enemies?”
Joshua ni Jeriko kho teng aonae koehoi a khet nah tami buet touh ni tahloi a tabu dawk hoi a rasa teh, ka kangdout e a hmu navah, ahni koe lah a cei teh, nang hah kaimouh koe lah kampang e maw, kaimae taran lah kaawm e maw telah a pacei.
14 He said, “Neither. For I am the commander of the army of Yahweh. Now I have come.” Then Joshua lay facedown on the ground to worship and said to him, “What does my master say to his servant?”
Hatnavah, ahni ni telah nahoeh, BAWIPA Cathut e ransahu ka hrawi e lah kai teh atu nang koe ka tho e doeh atipouh. Joshua ni talai dawk a tabo teh, a bawk. BAWIPA, na san koe bangmaw na dei han telah a pacei.
15 The commander of Yahweh's army said to Joshua, “Take off your sandals from your feet, because the place you are standing is holy.” That is what Joshua did.
BAWIPA e ransabawi ni na khokkhawm hah rading, nang ni na coungroe e hmuen teh kathounge doeh atipouh e patetlah Joshua ni a sak.
