Joshua 22
1 Then Joshua called the Reubenites, and the Gadites, and the half-tribe of Manasseh,
Joshua mah Reuben, Gad hoi Manasseh acaeng ahap to kawk moe,
2 And said to them, Ye have kept all that Moses the servant of the LORD commanded you, and have obeyed my voice in all that I commanded you:
Nihcae khaeah, Angraeng ih tamna Mosi mah paek ih loknawk boih na sak o moe, ka thuih ih lok na pazui o boeh;
3 Ye have not left your brethren these many days to this day, but have kept the charge of the commandment of the LORD your God.
canghnii hoi vaihni ni khoek to nangmacae nawkamyanawk to na caeh o taak ai; na Angraeng Sithaw mah paek ih tok to boeng khoek to na sak o.
4 And now the LORD your God hath given rest to your brethren, as he promised them: therefore now return ye, and go to your tents, [and] to the land of your possession, which Moses the servant of the LORD gave you on the other side of Jordan.
Vaihi loe Angraeng mah thuih ih lok baktih toengah, nam nawkamyanawk han misa amdinghaih to paek boeh pongah, Angraeng ih tamna Mosi mah ang paek o ih Jordan vangpui yaeh ah kaom, nangmacae im hoi na toep o ih prae ah amlaem o lai ah.
5 But take diligent heed to perform the commandment and the law, which Moses the servant of the LORD charged you, to love the LORD your God, and to walk in all his ways, and to keep his commandments, and to cleave to him, and to serve him with all your heart, and with all your soul.
Toe Angraeng ih tamna Mosi mah paek ih lok hoi kaalok to kahoih ah na pazui o hanah acoe oh; na Angraeng Sithaw to palung oh, anih ih loklam ah caeh oh, ang paek o ih loknawk baktiah sah oh, anih to kacakah patawn oh, na palungthin boih, na hinghaih boih hoiah a tok to sah oh, tiah a naa.
6 So Joshua blessed them and sent them away; and they went to their tents.
Joshua mah nihcae tahamhoihaih paek moe, patoeh baktih toengah, nihcae doeh angmacae im ah amlaem o.
7 Now to the [one] half of the tribe of Manasseh Moses had given [possession] in Bashan: but to the [other] half of it gave Joshua among their brethren on this side of Jordan westward. And when Joshua sent them away also to their tents, then he blessed them,
Ahap Manasseh acaeng hanah, Mosi mah Bashan prae to paek boeh; Joshua mah kalah ahap acaeng han doeh angmah ih nawkamyanawk salakah Jordan niduem bang ih prae to paek; Joshua mah nihcae to angmacae im ah patoeh naah, nihcae to tahamhoihaih paek.
8 And he spoke to them, saying, Return with much riches to your tents, and with very many cattle, with silver, and with gold, and with brass, and with iron, and with very much raiment: divide the spoil of your enemies with your brethren.
Joshua mah nihcae khaeah, Im ah nam laem o naah, paroeai hmuenmaenawk, paroeai maitawnawk, sui, sum kanglung, sum kamling, sum hoi kapop parai khukbuennawk hoiah amlaem oh; na misanawk khae hoiah na lak o ih hmuennawk to nam nawkamyanawk hoi amzet oh, tiah a naa.
9 And the children of Reuben, and the children of Gad, and the half-tribe of Manasseh returned, and departed from the children of Israel out of Shiloh, which [is] in the land of Canaan, to go to the country of Gilead, to the land of their possession, of which they were possessed, according to the word of the LORD by the hand of Moses.
To pongah Reuben acaeng, Gad acaeng hoi ahap Manasseh acaeng ah kaom kaminawk loe, Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah thuih ih lok baktih toengah, Israel kaminawk ohhaih Kanaan prae thungah kaom, Shiloh vangpui to caeh o taak moe, angmacae mah qawk ah toep han kaom, Gilead prae ah amlaem o.
10 And when they came to the borders of Jordan, that [are] in the land of Canaan, the children of Reuben, and the children of Gad, and the half-tribe of Manasseh built there an altar by Jordan, a great altar to the sight.
Kanaan prae thung ih, Jordan vapui taeng to phak o naah, Reuben acaeng, Gad acaeng hoi ahap Manasseh acaengnawk mah, Jordan vapui taengah, khet kamtueng kalen parai hmaicam maeto a sak o.
11 And the children of Israel heard it said, Behold, the children of Reuben, and the children of Gad, and the half-tribe of Manasseh, have built an altar over against the land of Canaan, in the borders of Jordan, at the passage of the children of Israel.
Khenah, Reuben acaeng, Gad acaeng hoi ahap Manasseh acaengnawk mah Kanaan prae boenghaih Jordan vapui taengah, hmaicam maeto a sak o boeh ti, tiah Israel kaminawk mah thaih o.
12 And when the children of Israel heard [of it], the whole congregation of the children of Israel assembled at Shiloh, to go up to war against them.
To tamthang to a thaih o naah, Israel kaminawk loe nihcae tuk hanah Shiloh vangpui ah nawnto amkhueng o.
13 And the children of Israel sent to the children of Reuben, and to the children of Gad, and to the half-tribe of Manasseh into the land of Gilead, Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest,
To pongah Israel kaminawk mah qaima Eleazar capa Phinehas to, Reuben acaeng, Gad acaeng hoi ahap Manasseh acaengnawk ohhaih, Gilead prae ah patoeh o,
14 And with him ten princes, of each chief house a prince throughout all the tribes of Israel; and each one [was] a head of the house of their fathers among the thousands of Israel.
Anih hoi nawnto zaehoikung kami hato, Israel acaeng maeto thung ih kacoehtanawk boih hoi Israel imthung takoh zaehoikung lu koeknawk to patoeh o.
15 And they came to the children of Reuben, and to the children of Gad, and to the half-tribe of Manasseh, to the land of Gilead, and they spoke with them, saying,
Nihcae loe Reuben acaeng, Gad acaeng hoi ahap Manasseh acaengnawk ohhaih, Gilead prae ah caeh o moe, nihcae khaeah,
16 Thus saith the whole congregation of the LORD, What trespass [is] this that ye have committed against the God of Israel, to turn away this day from following the LORD, in that ye have built you an altar, that ye might rebel this day against the LORD?
Angraeng ih kaminawk mah hae tiah lokthuih o; Nangcae loe vaihniah Angraeng ih loklam ah na caeh o ai, loklam nam khraeng o moe, Israel Angraeng Sithaw ih lok to na aek o; kawbangmaw vaihniah Angraeng ih lok na aek o moe, hae tiah hmaicam maeto na sak o halat?
17 [Is] the iniquity of Peor too little for us, from which we are not cleansed until this day, although there was a plague in the congregation of the LORD,
Peor ih zaehaih to aicae han khawt ai vop maw? To zaehaih pongah, Angraeng khae hoi ih kasae nathaih to kaminawk nuiah phak boeh, toe vaihni ni khoek to to zaehaih thung hoiah a ciim o ai vop!
18 But that ye must turn away this day from following the LORD? and it will be, [seeing] ye rebel to-day against the LORD, that to-morrow he will be wroth with the whole congregation of Israel.
Vaihniah Angraeng khae hoi nam khraeng o ving boeh maw? Vaihniah Angraeng ih lok to na aek o nahaeloe, khawnbang ah loe anih palungphuihaih Israel kaminawk boih nuiah om tih boeh.
19 Not withstanding, if the land of your possession [is] unclean, [then] pass ye over to the land of the possession of the LORD, in which the LORD'S tabernacle dwelleth, and take possession among us: but rebel not against the LORD, nor rebel against us, in building you an altar besides the altar of the LORD our God.
Na toep o ih prae to panuet thok ah na sak o nahaeloe, Angraeng ih kahni im ohhaih, Angraeng prae ah angzo oh loe, kaicae khaeah om oh; aicae Angraeng Sithaw ih hmaicam na ai ah, kalah hmaicam maeto sakhaih hoiah Angraeng nuiah misa angthawk o hmah loe, kaicae nuiah doeh misa angthawk o hmah.
20 Did not Achan the son of Zerah commit a trespass in the accursed thing, and wrath fall on all the congregation of Israel? and that man perished not alone in his iniquity.
Zerah capa Akaan mah tangoeng ih hmuen lak moeng ih zaehaih pongah, Israel kaminawk boih nuiah palungphuihaih om ai maw? Anih zaehaih pongah angmah khue to dueh ai, tiah a naa o.
21 Then the children of Reuben, and the children of Gad, and the half-tribe of Manasseh answered, and said to the heads of the thousands of Israel,
To naah Reuben, Gad hoi ahap Manasseh acaengnawk mah, Kami sangto ukkung Israel caanawk khaeah,
22 The LORD God of gods, the LORD God of gods, he knoweth, and Israel he shall know; if [it is] in rebellion, or if in transgression against the LORD, (save us not this day, )
sithawnawk ih Angraeng Sithaw! sithawnawk ih Angraeng Sithaw mah panoek; Israel kaminawk mah doeh panoek o tih; hae hmaicam loe Angraeng misa angthawk thui haih maw, to ai boeh loe a lok tahngai ai ah sak ih hmaicam ah om nahaeloe, vaihniah kaicae hae pathlung o hmah,
23 That we have built us an altar to turn from following the LORD, or if to offer on it burnt-offering, or meat-offering, or if to offer peace-offerings on it, let the LORD himself require [it];
Angraeng angqoi taak hanah hmaicam hae ka sak o maw, to tih ai boeh loe hmai angbawnhaih ka sak o maw, to tih ai boeh loe takaw tathlanghaih ka sak o maw, to tih ai boeh loe angdaeh angbawnhaih maw ka sak o nahaeloe, Angraeng angmah roe lokcaek nasoe;
24 And if we have not [rather] done it for fear of [this] thing, saying, In time to come your children may speak to our children, saying, What have ye to do with the LORD God of Israel?
hmabang ah na caanawk mah ka caanawk khaeah, Nangcae loe Israel Angraeng Sithaw hoi asaenghaih timaw na tawnh o?
25 For the LORD hath made Jordan a boundary between us and you, ye children of Reuben and children of Gad; ye have no part in the LORD. So shall your children make our children cease from fearing the LORD.
Angraeng mah kaicae hoi nangcae, Reuben caanawk hoi Gad caanawk salakah ramri to a sak boeh; nangcae loe Angraeng hoi asaenghaih tidoeh om ai boeh, tiah nangcae ih caanawk mah kaicae ih caanawk khaeah thui o moeng ueloe, kaicae ih caanawk mah Sithaw zii ai ah khosah o moeng tih, tiah zithaih ka tawnh o pongah ni, hae hmuen hae ka sak o.
26 Therefore we said, Let us now prepare to build us an altar, not for burnt-offering, nor for sacrifice:
To pongah vaihi hmaicam maeto sah o si; toe hmai angbawnhaih hoi hmuen paekhaih to sak hanah patoh o hma si, tiah ka thuih o.
27 But [that] it [may be] a witness between us, and you, and our generations after us, that we may do the service of the LORD before him with our burnt-offerings, and with our sacrifices, and with our peace-offerings; that your children may not say to our children in time to come, Ye have no part in the LORD.
Kaicae loe hmai angbawnhaih, hmuen paekhaih, angdaeh hmuen paekhaih hoiah Angraeng hmaa ah a tok to ka sak o, tiah hmabang angzo nangcae ih caanawk hoi kaicae ih caanawk salakah hnukung ah ohsak han ih, nangcae ih caanawk mah kaicae ih caanawk khaeah, Nangcae loe Angraeng ah toep ih qawk tidoeh na tawn o ai, tiah thuihaih oh han ai ih ni to tiah ka sak o.
28 Therefore said we, that it shall be, when they shall [so] say to us or to our generations in time to come, that we may say, Behold the pattern of the altar of the LORD, which our fathers made, not for burnt-offerings, nor for sacrifices; but [it is] a witness between us and you.
To pongah hmabang ah nihcae mah, Aicae khae hoi aimacae ih caanawk khaeah hae tiah thui o nahaeloe, kaicae mah, Kaicae ampanawk loe hmai angbawnhaih hoi hmuen paek han ih na ai, nangcae hoi kaicae salakah hnukung ah oh hanah sak ih Angraeng hmaicam ih krang hae khen oh, tiah thui pae si, tiah ka thuih o.
29 Far be it from us that we should rebel against the LORD, and turn this day from following the LORD, to build an altar for burnt-offerings, for meat-offerings, or for sacrifices, besides the altar of the LORD our God that [is] before his tabernacle.
Angraeng hmaa ah misa angthawk moe, vaihniah a caeh o ih loklam to amkhraeng taak moe, angmah ih kahni im hmaa ah kangdoe, aicae Angraeng Sithaw ih hmaicam ai ah loe, hmai angbawnhaih, canghum paekhaih hoi hmuen tathlanghaih sak hanah, kalah hmaicam roe ka sah o mak ai, tiah a naa o.
30 And when Phinehas the priest, and the princes of the congregation, and heads of the thousands of Israel who [were] with him, heard the words that the children of Reuben, and the children of Gad, and the children of Manasseh spoke, it pleased them.
Qaima Phinehas, kaminawk zaehoikung hoi kami sangto zaehoikung Israel caanawk mah, Reuben acaeng, Gad acaeng hoi ahap Manasseh acaeng mah thuih ih lok to thaih o naah, anghoe o.
31 And Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest said to the children of Reuben, and to the children of Gad, and to the children of Manasseh, This day we perceive that the LORD [is] among us, because ye have not committed this trespass against the LORD: now ye have delivered the children of Israel out of the hand of the LORD.
To naah qaima Eleazar capa Phinehas mah, Reuben acaeng, Gad acaeng hoi Manasseh acaengnawk khaeah, Nangcae loe Angraeng hmaa ah na zae o ai pongah, vaihniah Angraeng loe aicae salakah oh, tiah a panoek o; Angraeng ih ban thung hoiah Israel kaminawk to nangcae mah na pahlong o boeh, tiah a naa.
32 And Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest, and the princes, returned from the children of Reuben, and from the children of Gad, from the land of Gilead, to the land of Canaan, to the children of Israel, and brought them word again.
To pacoengah qaima Eleazar capa Phinehas hoi zaehoikungnawk loe, Gilead prae ah kaom, Reuben acaeng hoi Gad acaeng khae hoiah amlaem o moe, Kanaan prae ah kaom, Israel kaminawk khaeah, to loknawk to thuih pae o let.
33 And the thing pleased the children of Israel; and the children of Israel blessed God, and did not intend to go up against them in battle, to destroy the land in which the children of Reuben and Gad dwelt.
To lok to Israel kaminawk mah thaih o naah, anghoe o moe, Sithaw to saphaw o; to pacoeng hoi loe nihcae tuk hanah caeh moe, Reuben kaminawk hoi Gad kaminawk ohhaih prae to paro hanah thui o ai boeh.
34 And the children of Reuben and the children of Gad called the altar [Ed]: for it [shall be] a witness between us that the LORD [is] God.
Reuben kaminawk hoi Gad kaminawk mah, Angraeng loe Sithaw ni, tito hae ih hmaicam mah kaicae salakah hnukung ah om nasoe, tiah a thuih o pongah hmaicam to Ed, tiah ahmin sak o.
