Joshua 2
1 And Joshua son of Nun sendeth from Shittim, two men, spies, silently, saying, 'Go, see the land — and Jericho;' and they go and come into the house of a woman, a harlot, and her name [is] Rahab, and they lie down there.
Nun e capa Joshua ni Shittim khopui koehoi tuet hanelah arulah hoi tami kahni touh a patoun. Kanaan ram Jeriko khopui lah cet awh nateh, khenhaw atipouh e patetlah ahnimouh roi ni a cei roi teh, ka kâyawt e Rahab im a kâen roi teh, hawvah ao roi.
2 And it is told to the king of Jericho, saying, 'Lo, men have come in hither to-night, from the sons of Israel, to search the land.
Kho thung e tami tangawn ni hai hote ram heh tanouk hanelah Isarel miphun tangawn ni paduem tangmin lah khopui thung kâen awh toe ati awh teh, Jeriko siangpahrangnaw a thaisak toung dawkvah,
3 And the king of Jericho sendeth unto Rahab, saying, 'Bring out the men who are coming in unto thee, who have come into thy house, for to search the whole of the land they have come in.
Jeriko siangpahrang ni Rahab koe na im ka tho ni teh kaluennaw hah tâcawt sak. Ahnimanaw teh khopui thung tanouk hanelah a tho awh toe telah kâ a poe awh.
4 And the woman taketh the two men, and hideth them, and saith thus: 'The men came in unto me, and I have not known whence they [are];
Rahab ni hote tami roi hah a kâhro sak teh, kai koe tami a tho bokheiyah. Hatei nâhoi maw a tho tie teh ka panuek hoeh.
5 and it cometh to pass — the gate is to [be] shut — in the dark, and the men have gone out; I have not known whither the men have gone; pursue ye, hasten after them, for ye overtake them;'
Kho hmo longkha khan tawmlei nah ahnimouh roi teh a tâco roi toe. Nâ lah maw a cei roi tie ka panuek hoeh toe. Karang lah pâlei awh. Na pha awh han doeh atipouh.
6 and she hath caused them to go up on the roof, and hideth them with the flax wood, which is arranged for her on the roof.
Telah a dei eiteh hotnaw hah im van a luen sak teh lemphu vah a hro toe.
7 And the men have pursued after them the way of the Jordan, by the fords, and the gate they have shut afterwards, when the pursuers have gone out after them.
Thoundounnaw ni Jordan palang rakanae lam koe lah a pâlei awh. Khopui alawilah a pha hoiyah khopui longkhanaw pueng koung a khan awh.
8 And — before they lie down — she hath gone up unto them on the roof,
A hro e naw a i hoehnahlan, napui teh ahnimanaw a onae lemphu vah a luen teh,
9 and she saith unto the men, 'I have known that Jehovah hath given to you the land, and that your terror hath fallen upon us, and that all the inhabitants of the land have melted at your presence.
BAWIPA Cathut ni nangmanaw hete ram na poe toe tie hah nangmouh koe kaimouh ni pueng hoi ka tâsue awh teh, nangmouh kecu dawk ram thung e tami pueng a lungro awh toe tie kai ni ka panue.
10 'For we have heard how Jehovah dried up the waters of the Red Sea at your presence, in your going out of Egypt, and that which ye have done to the two kings of the Amorite who [are] beyond the Jordan; to Sihon and to Og whom ye devoted.
Nangmouh teh Izip ram hoi na tâco awh navah, Edom tuipui BAWIPA Cathut ni a hak sak tie hai thoseh, Jordan palang namran kaawm e pueng na raphoe awh teh, Amor siangpahrang, Sihon hoi Og dawkvah nangmouh ni hno na sak e pueng hai thoseh kaimouh ni ka thai awh toe.
11 And we hear, and melt doth our heart, and there hath not stood any more spirit in [any] man, from your presence, for Jehovah your God, He [is] God in the heavens above, and on the earth beneath.
Hote kamthang ka thai awh navah, kaimouh teh, nangmouh kecu dawk tami buet touh dawk hai taranhawinae awm hoeh toe. Bangkongtetpawiteh, nangmae BAWIPA Cathut teh, a Lathueng Poung e BAWIPA Cathut lah ao.
12 'And now, swear ye, I pray you, to me by Jehovah — because I have done with you kindness — that ye have done, even ye, kindness with the house of my father, and have given to me a true token,
Hatdawkvah, nangmouh dawk sannu ni hawinae ka sak e dawkvah, nangmouh ni hai rei ka tâcawt e kaimouh dawk hai hawinae sak awh nateh,
13 and have kept alive my father, and my mother, and my brothers, and my sisters, and all that they have, and have delivered our souls from death.'
kaie anu apa, hmaunawngha, ka thangroinaw koe, ahnimouh hoi kâkuen e pueng hai thet laipalah a hringnae hlout sak hanelah Cathut koe lawkkamnae sak awh nateh, thoekâbo awh. Mitnoutnae hno hai na poe haw atipouh.
14 And the men say to her, 'Our soul for yours — to die; if ye declare not this our matter, then it hath been, in Jehovah's giving to us this land, that we have done with thee kindness and truth.'
Ahnimanaw ni hai nang ni kaimouh hoi sak hane na kamnuek sak hoehpawiteh, nang na hring na hanelah kaimae hringnae teh, laicei lah awm naseh. Hete ram het BAWIPA Cathut ni na poe torei teh, nang dawk yuemkamcu lah ka o vaiteh, hawinae ka sak han telah ati awh.
15 And she causeth them to go down by a rope through the window, for her house [is] in the side of the wall, and in the wall she [is] dwelling;
Hote napui a onae im teh, khopui tungdumnae ateng lah ao dawkvah, ahnimanaw hah hlalangaw dawk rui hoi a pabo teh
16 and she saith to them, 'To the mountain go, lest the pursuers come upon you; and ye have been hidden there three days till the turning back of the pursuers, and afterwards ye go on your way.'
nangmanaw na pâlei e taminaw koehoi na hlout thai awh nahan mon lah yawng awh nateh, hnin thum touh kâhrawk awh. Nangmouh katawngnaw a ban hnukkhu hoi cet awh atipouh.
17 And the men say unto her, 'We are acquitted of this thine oath which thou hast caused us to swear:
Ahnimanaw ni nang ni thoekâbo sak e dawk kaimouh koe yon phat sak hanh.
18 lo, we are coming into the land, this line of scarlet thread thou dost bind to the window by which thou hast caused us to go down, and thy father, and thy mother, and thy brethren, and all the house of thy father thou dost gather unto thee, to the house;
Hete ram dawk kaimouh ka pha toteh, atu kaimouh na pabonae hlalangaw dawk hete langsanrui hah pen nateh, manu napa, na thangroinaw hoi na imthungkhunaw abuemlah na im dawk koung na pâkhueng han.
19 and it hath been, any one who goeth out from the doors of thy house without, his blood [is] on his head, and we are innocent; and any one who is with thee in the house, his blood [is] on our head, if a hand is on him;
Na im dawk hoi alawilah ka tâcawt e tami teh dout pawiteh, a ma dawkvah khang naseh. Kaimouh teh yon dawk hoi ka hlout awh han. Na imthungkhunaw ka thet payon awh pawiteh kaimouh ni ka khang awh han.
20 and if thou declare this our matter, then we have been acquitted from thine oath which thou hast caused us to swear.'
Kaimae thaw hai na dei pouh boipawiteh, atu thoe na kâbo sak e dawk hoi kaimouh hai ka hlout awh han.
21 And she saith, 'According unto your words, so it [is];' and she sendeth them away, and they go; and she bindeth the scarlet line to the window.
Napui ni hai lawk na dei awh e patetlah awm lawiseh ati teh a ceisak. Napui ni hai rui paling e hah hlalangaw dawk a pakhi.
22 And they go, and come in to the mountain, and abide there three days until the pursuers have turned back; and the pursuers seek in all the way, and have not found.
Ahnimanaw teh mon dawk a pha hoehroukrak a cei awh teh, kapâleinaw a ban hoehroukrak hnin thum touh ao awh. Kapâleinaw ni a tawng awh eiteh hmawt awh hoeh.
23 And the two men turn back, and come down from the hill, and pass over, and come in unto Joshua son of Nun, and recount to him all that hath come upon them;
Ahnimouh roi teh mon hoi a kum teh tui a raka roi. Nun e capa Joshua koe a pha teh, a kâhmo e hnonaw pueng hah a dei pouh.
24 and they say unto Joshua, 'Surely Jehovah hath given into our hand all the land; and also, all the inhabitants of the land have melted at our presence.'
BAWIPA Cathut ni hote ram abuemlah maimae kut dawk na poe toe. Maimouh kecu dawk ram thung kaawm e tami pueng a lungpuen awh telah Joshua koe a dei pouh awh.
