Joshua 7
1 But the people of Israel acted unfaithfully regarding the things that were set apart for destruction. Achan son of Karmi son of Zabdi son of Zerah, from the tribe of Judah, took some things that were set apart for destruction, and Yahweh's anger burned against the people of Israel.
Ahinla Israel’in sapset changsa thilho chungahin thupeh anapalkeh’un ahi. Achan kitipa hin sapset changsa thilho phabep chu ana gudohtan, hijeh chun Pakai chu Israel chungah analunghang lheh jengin ahi. Achan kitipa hi, Judaphung sunga Zerah chapa Zimri chilhah’a kon Carmi chapa ahi.
2 Joshua sent men from Jericho to Ai, which was near Beth Aven, east of Bethel. He said to them, “Go up and spy out the land.” So the men went up and spied out Ai.
Joshua’n Jericho a kon in, Beth’aven kom, Bethel solama um Ai khopi velhi dingin mi phabep asollin ahi.
3 When they returned to Joshua, they said to him, “Do not send all the people up to Ai. Send only two or three thousand men to go up and attack Ai. Do not make all the people labor in battle, for they are few in number.”
Amaho ahung kile phatnun Joshua kommachun hitin aseijun ahi, “Eiho ibonnuva ichetouvu angaipoi ajeh chu hiche Ai khopi nokhumding khun mi sangni ahilouleh sangthum kal ngaiponte atiuvin ahi. Amahokhu lhomchabou ahiuvin eiho ibonchauva ichetoukhoh’u angaipoi atiuve.”
4 So only about three thousand men went up from the army, but these ran away from the men of Ai.
Hijeh chun mi sangthum tobang asollun ahileh gimneitah’in gal ahinlal tauvin ahi.
5 The men of Ai killed about thirty-six men as they pursued them from the city gate as far as to the stone quarries, and they killed them as they were going down a hill. The hearts of the people melted and became like water.
Ai khomiten Israel hochu akhopiu kelkotna kon in Sheberim geijin ahin dellutnun lamsah lamma nungjam hochu mi somthum le gup tobang athatnun ahi. Hitobang thilsoh’a konhin Israelte chu kichatnan adimtauvin alungu adailheh jengtauvin ahi.
6 Then Joshua tore his garments. He and the elders of Israel put dust on their heads and lay facedown on the ground in front of the ark of Yahweh, remaining there until evening.
Joshua leh Israel upate jouse lunghemmin aponsillu abot-eh jengun, aluchanguvah leivui akinu’vin Pakai thingkong maija chun tolla abohkhup un nilhahlang geijin akisehgim jengun ahi.
7 Then Joshua said, “Ah, Yahweh Lord, why have you brought this people across the Jordan at all? To give us into the hands of the Amorites to destroy us? If only we made a different decision and we had stayed on the other side of the Jordan!
Hichun Joshua akapjah jengun, “O Pakai Pathen hiche Amor mite thagamding bepma hi ipi dinga hiche Jordan hi neihinpui galkaiju ham? Hitiding sanga hi Jordan gallang khatna chu neichenden sah jenguleh itiaham?
8 Lord, what can I say, after Israel has turned their backs before their enemies?
Pakai, Israel hi agalmitea konna hi ajam theibepma ahileh ipi kaseithei dingham?
9 For the Canaanites and all the inhabitants of the land will hear of it. They will surround us and make the people of the earth forget our name. What will you do for your great name?”
Ajeh chu, Canaan mitele hiche gamsunga cheng miteho hin hichehi ajahdoh phatnuleh, amahon eihin umkimvel’un tin hiche gam leisetna konna hi eisuhmang tah louding diuham? Chutengleh aming loupe jaangaina hi itiding hitam?” ati.
10 Yahweh said to Joshua, “Get up! Why are you lying there on your face?
Ahinlah Pakaiyin Joshua kommah ahin seijin, “Kithoudoh loijin, ipi dinga bohkhupma kijamjeng nahiham?
11 Israel has sinned. They have broken my covenant which I commanded them. They have stolen some of the things that were set apart. They have stolen and then also hidden their sin by putting what they have taken among their own belongings.
Israel’in kakitepna asukeh’in sapset changsa thilho aguuvin, eijoulhepmun athilkeo lah’uva akoijun ahi.
12 As a result, the people of Israel cannot stand before their enemies. They turned their backs from their enemies because they themselves have been set apart for destruction. I will not be with you any more unless you destroy the things that should have been destroyed, but are still among you.
Hichejeh a hi Israelte agalteu masanga dingjou louva gallel’a jamma ahiuve. Tuahi Israelte amaho jeng jonghi suhmang dinga umma ahitauve. Nalah’uva um sapset changsa thilkeoho chu nasuhmang lou’uleh keiman nangho kaumpi louding nahiuve.
13 Get up! Consecrate the people to me and say to them, 'Consecrate yourselves for tomorrow. For Yahweh, the God of Israel says, “There are things set apart to be destroyed that are still among you, Israel. You cannot stand against your enemies until you remove from among you all the things that were set apart to be destroyed.”
Thoudoh’in lang, jing nikho kigotna dingin namite hi amaho le amaho kisuhthengsah’in. Ajeh chu, Pakai Israel Pathennin aseije, O Israel, sapset changsa thilkeoho chu nalah’uva akiselden nalaije, hicheho hi nahinlahdoh tokah’uva galmasanga nadin joulou diu ahi.
14 In the morning, you must present yourselves by your tribes. The tribe that Yahweh selects will come near by their clans. The clan that Yahweh selects must come near by each household. The household that Yahweh selects must come near one by one.
Jingkah tengleh naphung dungjuijuva nahung kigoldiu ahi, hiteng chuleh Pakaiyin achonsepa chu koiphung penna konham ti ahinphondoh ding ahi. Pakaiyin ahilhendoh phung chu aphungkhaija nahung kigoldohdiu, Pakaiyin achonse phungkhai chu ahin lhendoh ding ahi. Pakaiyin ahinlhendoh phungkhai chu hung kigoldiu achonse insung chu ahin lhendoh ding ahi. Ajonapen’a chu achonse insung mite chu khatkhatna hung kigoldohdiu ahi.
15 It will happen that the one who is selected and who has those things that were set apart for destruction, he will be burned, he and all he has, because he has broken the covenant of Yahweh and because he has done a disgraceful thing in Israel.'”
Koi hileh hiche sapset chang thil ana gupen pen amatah chu aneijouse toh halvam thading ahi, ajeh chu aman Pakai kitepna chu apalkeh’a Israel chunga hitobang hamsetna chu achuhsah ahi,” ati.
16 So, Joshua got up early in the morning and brought Israel near, tribe by tribe, and the tribe of Judah was selected.
Joshua’n jong jingkah langin matah’in athouvin Israel phungho chu Pakai maijah ahin goldoh’in ahileh Judah phung chu matdoh ahitai.
17 Joshua brought the clans of Judah near, and the clan of the Zerahites was selected. He brought near the clan of the Zerahites person by person, and Zabdi was selected.
Hijeh chun Judah phungkhai chu ahung kigoldoh’in ahileh Zerah phungkhai chu akimandoh kittan ahi. Hichejou chun Zerah insungmi chu ahung kigoldoh’un ahileh Zimri insung chu matdoh ahitai.
18 He brought Zabdi's household near, person by person, and Achan son of Karmi, son of Zabdi, son of Zerah, from the tribe of Judah, was selected.
Zimri insung mite jouse chu amachang cheh khatkhat’in ahung kigoldoh’un ahileh Achan chu ahin mandoh tauvin ahi.
19 Then Joshua said to Achan, “My son, tell the truth before Yahweh, the God of Israel, and give your confession to him. Please tell me what you have done. Do not hide it from me.”
Hichun Joshua’n Achan kommachun hitin aseije, “Kachapa, Israel Pathen loupina hi jana penlang thudihtah seijin, ipi bepseu nanabol hitam phongdoh’in lang, neiseipeh’in, imacha imhihbeh’in” ati.
20 Achan answered Joshua, “Truly, I have sinned against Yahweh, the God of Israel. This is what I did:
Achan’in adonbutnin, “Adih’e, Pakai dounan kana chonsetai.
21 When I saw among the plunder a beautiful coat from Babylon, two hundred shekels of silver, and a bar of gold weighing fifty shekels, I desired them and took them. They are hidden in the ground in the middle of my tent, and the silver is under it.”
Thil kichomdoh lah’a chun, Babylon pon hoitah khattoh, dangka shekel jani toh, shekel sangnga gih sana lhonkhat toh kamun ahileh kadeichan kana kilahtai. Hicheho chu kaponbuh sungah dangka chutoh tolla kavuijin ahi,” ati.
22 Joshua sent messengers, who ran to the tent and there were the things. When they looked, they found them hidden in his own tent, and the silver under them.
Hichun Joshua’n akholtoh dingin mi phabep asollin, amaho acheuvin ahileh Achannin asei bangchun thil kiguho chu dangka chutoh akivuitha chu agamu’uvin ahi.
23 They took the items from the middle of the tent and brought them to Joshua and to all the people of Israel. They poured them out before Yahweh.
Amahon ponbuh a konchun hiche thilho jouse chu ahinchoijun Israelte leh Joshua komma chun ahinchoijun, hicheho chu Pakai angsung tollhanga chun asekhommun ahi.
24 Then Joshua, and all Israel with him, took Achan son of Zerah, and the silver, the coat, the bar of gold, his sons and daughters, his oxen, his donkeys, his sheep, his tent, and all that he had, and they brought them up to the Valley of Achor.
Hichun Israelte leh Joshua’n Achantoh, dangka leh ponloupi, sanalhon toh, achapate le achanute, abongchal ho, asangan ho, akelngoiho le akeltah ho, aponbuh leh athilho jouse chu Achor phaichammah ahin polutnun ahi.
25 Then Joshua said, “Why have you troubled us? Yahweh will trouble you today.” All Israel stoned him with stones. Then they stoned the rest with stones and burned them with fire.
Hichun Joshua’n Achan jah’a chun, “Ipi dinga nangin ilah’uva hi hitobang hamsetna hi nahin pohlut ham?” ati. Hichun Israelte jousen Achanleh ainsung mite chu song’in aseplih’un atahsa long’u meiyin ahalgam tauve.
26 They set up over him a great heap of stones that is here until this day. Yahweh turned away his burning anger. Therefore the name of the place is the Valley of Achor until this present day.
Achan chunga chun songlom aseuvin tuni changgeijin aumjing nalaije. Hijeh chun hiche munchu hichenia patchun Lungkhamna Phaicham akisahtan ahi. Hichepet chun Pakai lunghanna chu adailhatai.
