Joshua 3
1 And Joshua rose early in the morning; and they removed from Shittim, and came to Jordan, he and all the children of Israel, and lodged there before they passed over.
Joshua teh amom a thaw teh Isarel miphun abuemlah hoiyah Shittim khopui hoi a kampuen awh teh, Jordan tui a raka awh hoehnahlan palang teng rim a sak awh.
2 And it came to pass after three days, that the officers went through the host;
Hnin thum touh a pha toteh, ransabawinaw ni ransahu onae tangkuem koe a cei awh.
3 And they commanded the people, saying, When ye see the ark of the covenant of the LORD your God, and the priests the Levites bearing it, then ye shall remove from your place, and go after it.
Nangmae BAWIPA Cathut e lawkkam thingkong ka hrawm e vaihma bawi Levih miphunnaw ni a kâkayawt lahun e na hmu torei teh, nangmanaw ni hai hmuen na kampuen awh vaiteh, na kâbang awh han.
4 Yet there shall be a space between you and it, about two thousand cubits by measure: come not near to it, that ye may know the way by which ye must go: for ye have not passed [this] way heretofore.
Thingkong hoi nangmae a rahak vah, dong thong hni touh na kâhla awh han. Na kâbang hane lamthung na panue thai awh nahane thingkong rek na hnai awh mahoeh. Hete lam teh nangmouh ni vai touh hai na cet awh hoeh rah telah tami pueng hah lawk a thui.
5 And Joshua said to the people, Sanctify yourselves: for to-morrow the LORD will do wonders among you.
Joshua ni nangmanaw pueng namahoima kâthoung sak awh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, tangtho e hnin teh, BAWIPA Cathut ni kângairu e hnonaw nangmouh koe a sak han toe telah taminaw lawk a thui.
6 And Joshua spoke to the priests, saying, Take up the ark of the covenant, and pass over before the people. And they took up the ark of the covenant, and went before the people.
Hahoi vaihmanaw kaw nateh, nangmanaw ni lawkkam thingkong hrawm na laihoi taminaw e hmalah rakat awh leih. Joshua ni a dei e patetlah ahnimanaw teh lawkkam thingkong a kâkayawt awh teh, taminaw hmalah a cei awh.
7 And the LORD said to Joshua, This day will I begin to magnify thee in the sight of all Israel, that they may know that as I was with Moses, [so] I will be with thee.
BAWIPA Cathut ni Joshua a kaw teh, kai ni Mosi ka okhai e patetlah nang koe ka o e hah Isarelnaw abuemlah ni a panue awh nahanelah, ahnimae hmaitung vah sahnin kai ni na kamsawng sak han.
8 And thou shalt command the priests that bear the ark of the covenant, saying, When ye have come to the brink of the water of Jordan, ye shall stand still in Jordan.
Lawkkam thingkong ka hrawm e vaihma bawinaw Jordan palang teng a pha awh torei teh, Jordan tui dawk a kangdue awh han telah patuen na dei pouh awh han atipouh.
9 And Joshua said to the children of Israel, Come hither, and hear the words of the LORD your God.
Joshua ni tho awh leih, nangmae BAWIPA Cathut e lawk teh ngâi awh hottelah Isarel miphunnaw abuemlah a kaw awh.
10 And Joshua said, By this ye shall know that the living God [is] among you, and [that] he will without fail drive out from before you the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Hivites, and the Perizzites, and the Girgashites, and the Amorites, and the Jebusites.
BAWIPA Cathut teh nangmouh koe ao, nangmae hmalah, Kanaannaw, Periznaw, Amornaw, Jebusitnaw, Hitnaw, Girgashitenaw hah a pâlei han tie hah panuek awh.
11 Behold, the ark of the covenant of the LORD of all the earth passeth over before you into Jordan.
Talaivan abuemlah ka uk e BAWIPA Cathut e lawkkam thingkong teh nangmae hmalah Jordan tuipui dawk a rakakhai awh toe.
12 Now therefore take you twelve men out of the tribes of Israel, out of every tribe a man.
Hatdawkvah Isarel miphunnaw thung hoi miphun tangkuem e tami buetbuet touh abuemlah tami hlaikahni touh rawi awh.
13 And it shall come to pass, as soon as the soles of the feet of the priests that bear the ark of the LORD, the Lord of all the earth, shall rest in the waters of Jordan, [that] the waters of Jordan shall be cut off [from] the waters that come down from above; and they shall stand in a heap.
Talai van abuemlah ka uk e Bawipa Jehovah e thingkong hah ka hrawm e vaihma bawinaw ni khoksampha hoi Jordan tuipui a coungroe tahma vah atunglae tui a kâhat vaiteh, a kamuem han.
14 And it came to pass, when the people removed from their tents to pass over Jordan, and the priests bearing the ark of the covenant before the people;
Taminaw teh Jordan tuipui raka awh hanelah rimnaw dawk hoi a kampuen vaiteh, lawkkam thingkong ka hrawm e vaihma bawinaw ni taminaw e hmalah a cei awh han.
15 And as they that bore the ark had come to Jordan, and the feet of the priests that bore the ark were dipped in the brim of the water, (for Jordan overfloweth all its banks all the time of harvest, )
Jordan tuipui koe a pha awh hoi ka poum e tui hah khoksampha hoi a coungroe awh toteh, canganae a tue navah hote tuipui teh, palang rai dawk ouk a poum eiteh,
16 That the waters which came down from above stood [and] rose up in a heap very far from the city Adam, that [is] beside Zaretan; and those that came down towards the sea of the plain, [even] the salt sea, failed, [and] were cut off: and the people passed over right against Jericho.
atunglah hoi ka lawng e tui a kâhat teh ahlanae koe e Zarethan khopui teng kaawm e Adam khopui totouh a kamuem. Arabah tuipui palang koe ka lawng e tui hai a kâhat teh, taminaw pueng ni Jeriko khopui koelah a raka awh.
17 And the priests that bore the ark of the covenant of the LORD stood firm on dry ground in the midst of Jordan, and all the Israelites passed over on dry ground, until all the people had passed quite over Jordan.
Tami moikapap teh Jordan namran a pha hoeh roukrak BAWIPA Cathut e lawkkam thingkong ka hrawm e vaihma bawinaw ni tuipui lungui talai dawk kacaklah a kangdue awh teh, Isarel miphunnaw abuemlah ni talai dawk a cei awh.
