Joshua 3
1 And Joshua riseth early in the morning, and they journey from Shittim, and come in unto the Jordan, he and all the sons of Israel, and they lodge there before they pass over.
Joshua loe khawnbang khawnthaw ah angthawk, Israel kaminawk hoi nawnto Shittim vangpui hoi angpuen o moe, Jordan vapui ah a caeh o; vapui angkat o ai naah anih taengah amkhueng o.
2 And it cometh to pass, at the end of three days, that the authorities pass over into the midst of the camp,
Ni thumto oh o pacoengah zaehoikungnawk mah, misatuh kaminawk ataihaih ahmuen ah caeh o moe,
3 and command the people, saying, 'When ye see the ark of the covenant of Jehovah your God, and the priests, the Levites, bearing it, then ye journey from your place, and have gone after it;
kaminawk khaeah, Qaima toksah Levinawk mah aput o ih, na Angraeng Sithaw ih thingkhong to na hnuk o naah, na ohhaih ahmuen to pahoe oh loe, a hnukah bang oh, tiah lokthuih pae o.
4 only, a distance is between you and it, about two thousand cubits by measure; ye do not come near unto it, so that ye know the way in which ye go, for ye have not passed over in the way heretofore.'
Hae loklam hae na pazui o vai ai pongah, na caeh o hanih loklam na panoek o thai hanah, lokkamhaih thingkhong kanghnai ah caeh o hmah, lokkamhaih thingkhong hoi nangcae salak dong sang hnetto angthla o sak ah, tiah a thuih pae o.
5 And Joshua saith unto the people, 'Sanctify yourselves, for to-morrow doth Jehovah do in your midst wonders.'
Joshua mah kaminawk khaeah, Khawnbangah Angraeng mah nangcae khaeah dawnrai hmuen sak han oh pongah, amprikcai oh, tiah a naa.
6 And Joshua speaketh unto the priests, saying, 'Take up the ark of the covenant, and pass over before the people;' and they take up the ark of the covenant, and go before the people.
Joshua mah qaimanawk khaeah, Lokkamhaih thingkhong to apu oh loe, kaminawk hmaa ah caeh oh, tiah a naa. To pongah nihcae mah lokkamhaih thingkhong to aput o moe, kaminawk hmaa ah caeh o.
7 And Jehovah saith unto Joshua, 'This day I begin to make thee great in the eyes of all Israel, so that they know that as I was with Moses I am with thee;
To naah Angraeng mah Joshua khaeah, Vaihniah Israel kaminawk mikhnuk ah nang to kang pakoeh han; to tiah ni Mosi khaeah ka oh baktih toengah, nang khaeah doeh ka oh, tiah nihcae mah panoek o tih.
8 and thou, thou dost command the priests bearing the ark of the covenant, saying, When ye come unto the extremity of the waters of the Jordan — in the Jordan ye stand.'
Lokkamhaih thingkhong apu qaimanawk khaeah, Jordan vapui taeng na phak o naah, Jordan vapui ah angdoe oh, tiah a naa.
9 And Joshua saith unto the sons of Israel, 'Come nigh hither, and hear the words of Jehovah your God;
Joshua mah Israel kaminawk khaeah, Haeah angzo oh loe, na Angraeng Sithaw ih loknawk to tahngai oh.
10 and Joshua saith, 'By this ye know that the living God [is] in your midst, and He doth certainly dispossess from before you the Canaanite, and the Hittite, and the Hivite, and the Perizzite, and the Girgashite, and the Amorite, and the Jebusite:
Joshua mah, Kahing Sithaw loe nangcae salakah oh, kawbangmaw nangcae hmaa hoiah Anih mah Kanaan kaminawk, Hit kaminawk, Hiv kaminawk, Periz kaminawk, Girgash kaminawk, Amor kaminawk hoi Jebus kaminawk to haek, tito na panoek o tih.
11 lo, the ark of the covenant of the Lord of all the earth is passing over before you into Jordan;
Khenah, long boih ukkung Angraeng lokkamhaih thingkhong loe, nangcae hmaa ah Jordan vapui ah caeh boeh.
12 and now, take for you twelve men out of the tribes of Israel, one man — one man for a tribe;
To pongah vaihi acaeng maeto thung hoiah kami maeto, Israel acaeng hatlai hnetto thung hoiah kami hatlai hnetto qoi oh.
13 and it hath been, at the resting of the soles of the feet of the priests bearing the ark of Jehovah, Lord of all the earth, in the waters of the Jordan, the waters of the Jordan are cut off — the waters which are coming down from above — and they stand — one heap.'
Long nui boih ukkung Angraeng, Angraeng lokkamhaih thingkhong apu qaimanawk ih khok mah Jordan vapui to cawh o naah, aluek bang hoiah kalong tathuk Jordan vapui to apet tih, tui to maeto ah angcu ueloe, anghak sut tih, tiah a naa.
14 And it cometh to pass, in the journeying of the people from their tents to pass over the Jordan, and of the priests bearing the ark of the covenant before the people,
Kaminawk loe Jordan vapui angkat hanah, a oh o haih ahmuen hoiah angthawk o naah, qaimanawk mah lokkamhaih thingkhong to aput o moe, kaminawk hmaa ah caeh o.
15 and at those bearing the ark coming in unto the Jordan, and the feet of the priests bearing the ark have been dipped in the extremity of the waters (and the Jordan is full over all its banks all the days of harvest) —
Jordan vapui loe cang aah tue phak kruek tui to len moe, tui taeng boih tui hoiah koi; toe Angraeng lokkamhaih thingkhong apu qaimanawk Jordan vapui to phak o moe, khok hoiah tui a cawh o naah,
16 that the waters stand; those coming down from above have risen — one heap, very far above Adam the city, which [is] at the side of Zaretan; and those going down by the sea of the plain, the Salt Sea, have been completely cut off; and the people have passed through over-against Jericho;
aluek bang hoiah kalong tathuk tui to anghak sut, angthla parai Zarethan vangpui taengah kaom, Adam vangpui khoek to tui mah uengh; paloi tuipui, tiah kawk ih azawn ah kaom tuipui ah kalong tathuk tui doeh anghak sut, to pongah kaminawk loe Jeriko vangpui taengah tui angkat o.
17 and the priests bearing the ark of the covenant of Jehovah stand on dry ground in the midst of the Jordan — established, and all Israel are passing over on dry ground till that all the nation hath completed to pass over the Jordan.
Angraeng lokkamhaih thingkhong apu qaimanawk loe, kaminawk Jordan vapui yaeh pha o ai karoek to, Jordan vapui um li ah long kaphui nuiah angdoet o, Israel kaminawk loe long kaphui nuiah caeh o.
