Joshua 6
1 Tun Jericho mipite chun Israelte chu akichat jeh’un akhopiu kelkot chu akam chahkheh jengun ahi. Mi koimacha avadohsah pouvin lutjong alutsah pouvin ahi.
Now Jericho was closely shut up and besieged, and none went out of it, and none came in.
2 Ahinlah Pakaiyin Joshua kommah, “Hiche khopi leh alengpau chuleh asepaiteu jouse jong nakhutna kapehdoh ahitai.
And the Lord said to Joshua, Behold, I deliver Jericho into thy power, and its king in it, [and its] mighty men.
3 Nangleh nasepai chengsetoh nigup sunga hi nisehleh khopihi khatvei naveldiu ahi.
And do thou set the men of war round about it.
4 Thingkong masanga hi thempu sagi in kelchalki khatcheh akichoijuva kijotdiu ahi. Ni sagi channileh nanghon hiche khopihi sagivei naveldiu ahi.
And it shall be [that] when ye shall sound with the trumpet, all the people shall shout together.
5 Thempuhon kelchalki ho chu ahinmut mutnuleh mipiten na-o neichasun sunnuva sangtah'a nasapdiu ahi. Hiteng chuleh khopi kulpi chu chimlhading, hiteng chuleh mipiho chu khopi sunga chu nalhailutnuva nadelkhum jengdiu ahi,” ati.
And when they have shouted, the walls of the city shall fall of themselves; and all the people shall enter, each one rushing direct into the city.
6 Hitichun Joshua in thempuho chu akoukhommin hiti hin aseipeh tai, “Pakai kitepna thingkong chu puuvinlang, thempu sagi chun kelchalki kichoi cheh’unlang mipi masanga khun kijotnun” ati.
And Joshua the [son] of Naue went in to the priests, and spoke to them, saying,
7 Hijouchun aman mipiho chu thu apen, “Khopi vella chun kijotnun, galmanchah kichoi chengse chu Pakai thingkong masanga cheuhenlang mipichu lamkai juhen,” ati.
And let seven priests having seven sacred trumpets proceed thus before the Lord, and let them sound loudly; and let the ark of the covenant of the Lord follow.
8 Joshua’n mipiho komma thu anaseijouchun Thempu sagiho chun pengkul akichoi cheh’un Pakai masanga chun akijotnun pengkul ho chu amutnun ahi. Chuleh Pakai kitepna thingkong chu ajuijun ahi.
Charge the people to go round, and encompass the city; and let your men of war pass on armed before the Lord.
9 Galmanchah kichoi phabep chu pengkul kichoi thempuho masanga akijotnun, loikhatchu thingkong nunglanga akijotnun, thempuho chun pengkul chu amutjom jingun ahi.
And let the men of war proceed before, and the priests bringing up the rear behind the ark of the covenant of the Lord [proceed] sounding the trumpets.
10 Joshua’n thu ahinpen, “Koimachan kholhang samhih’un, paojong paopoh hih’un, keiman sammun kati tokah’in thu chengkhatcha jong nakammuva kon in gindohsah hih’un,” ati.
And Joshua commanded the people, saying, Cry not out, nor let any one hear your voice, until he himself declare to you the time to cry out, and then ye shall cry out.
11 Hitichun Pakai thingkong chu apuuvin hiche nikho chun khatvei khopi chu avellun, chujouvin abonchauvin ngahmun chu ajonnun agageh’un ahi.
And the ark of the covenant of God having gone round immediately returned into the camp, and lodged there.
12 Ajingin Joshua chu jingkah matah’in akipatdoh’in ahileh thempuho jongchun Pakai thingkong chu apukitnun ahi.
And on the second day Joshua rose up in the morning, and the priests took up the ark of the covenant of the Lord.
13 Thempu sagi hochun pengkul chu akichoi cheh’un Pakai thingkong masanga chun akijotnun, pengkul chu amutnun ahi. Avellin, galmanchah kichoi hochu pengkul kichoi thempu ho masangleh Pakai thingkong puho nung’ah akijotnun ahi. Hiche sungse hin thempuho chun pengkul chu amut mutjingun ahi.
And the seven priests bearing the seven trumpets went on before the Lord; and afterwards the men of war went on, and the remainder of the multitude went after the ark of the covenant of the Lord, and the priests sounded with the trumpets.
14 Anini channa’in jong amahon khopi chu avelkitnun chujouvin ngahmunna ahung kile kitnun ahi. Hitobang hin nigup sungse chun abollun ahi.
And all the rest of the multitude compassed the city six times from within a short distance, and went back again into the camp; this they did six days.
15 Ni sagi channa’in Israelte chu khovahlhah’in akipatdoh’un tumasanga abol bang bangun khopi chu avel kitnun ahi. Ahin tuchung ahin khopi chu sagivei avellun ahi.
And on the seventh day they rose up early, and compassed the city on that day seven times.
16 Sagivei aveljouvun thempuhon pengkul thongjen junnin ahin mutphat uchun Joshua’n mipiho chu thu ahinpen, “Kholhang sammun! Pakaiyin hiche khopi hi nepeh’u ahitai!
And it came to pass at the seventh circuit the priests blew the trumpets; and Joshua said to the children of Israel, Shout, for the Lord has given you the city.
17 Jericho khopi leh asunga umjouse hi Pakaiyin asuhmang sohkei ding ahitai: Rahab kijohnu leh ainsung mite jouse chu kihing hoiding ahi, ajeh chu amanun gamvelhi’a kibol hochu ana hoidoh sah’in ahi.
And the city shall be devoted, it and all things that are in it, to the Lord of Hosts: only do ye save Raab the harlot, and all things in her house.
18 Suhmang dinga um thilho chu khatcha suloh hihbeh’un, achutilouleh nangho jong nakisuhmang tha dingu ahi, chuleh Israel ngahmunna hi hamsetna nahin lhutkhumlo diu ahi.
But keep yourselves strictly from the accursed thing, lest ye set your mind upon and take of the accursed thing, and ye make the camp of the children of Israel and accursed thing, and destroy us.
19 Amavang dangka le sana, chule thih le sum-eng’a kisem thilho chu Pakaija atheng ahin hicheho chu Pakai sumkholna a lutding ahi,” tin thupeh ana neitai.
And all the silver, or gold, or brass, or iron, shall be holy to the Lord; it shall be carried into the treasury of the Lord.
20 Mipiho chun pengkul kimutgin chu ajahphatnun a-ou neichasunnun asammun ahileh Jericho kulpi chu achimlha jengin ahi. Hiche phat chun Israelten khopi sungchu anokhummun alatauve.
And the priests sounded with the trumpets: and when the people heard the trumpets, all the people shouted at once with a loud and strong shout; and all the wall fell round about, and all the people went up into the city:
21 Amahon khopi sunga umho jouse, numei pasal, ateh akhang, bong, kelngoi, kelcha chuleh sangan abonchan asumang sohkeijun ahi.
and Joshua devoted it to destruction, and all things that were in the city, man and woman, young man and old, and calf and ass, with the edge of the sword.
22 Hichun Joshua’n gamvelhia cheteni komma chun, nakitepna lhon dungjuijin akijohnu innachun lutlhonnin lang amanu le ainsung mite jouse chu gapuidoh lhonnin ati.
And Joshua said to the two young men who had acted a spies, Go into the house of the woman, and bring her out thence, and all that she has.
23 Gamvelhia cheteni chu achelut lhonnin Rahab chu amatoh umkhom apale anu, asopiho le aisungmite jouse chutoh agapuidoh lhonnin ahi.
And the two young men who had spied out the city entered into the house of the woman, and brought out Raab the harlot, and her father, and her mother, and her brethren, and her kindred, and all that she had; and they set her without the camp of Israel.
24 Hijouchun, Israelten khopi chu asunga umjouse toh ahallhauvin asumanghel tauvin ahi. Ahin sumle sana, chule sum-eng le thih-a kisem thilho vang chu Pakai sumkholna munnah akoijun ahi.
And the city was burnt with fire with all things that were in it; only of the silver, and gold, and brass, and iron, they gave to be brought into the treasury of the Lord.
25 Hitichun Joshua’n Rahab kijohnu chu insunga aumkhopi ainsung mite jouse toh ahuhdoh’in ahi, ajeh chu aman Jericho velhi dinga asolteni chu anaseldoh’a ana hoidohsah lhon ahi.
And Joshua saved alive Raab the harlot, and all the house of her father, and caused her to dwell in Israel until this day, because she hid the spies which Joshua sent to spy out Jericho.
26 Hichun, Joshua’n Jericho khopi chu anagaosap’in, “Koi hileh hiche Jericho khopi sapha go chanchu Pakai sapset changhen, tungdohgoa chu acha masapen’in loulo hen, akelkot tungdohgoa chu achapa lhumpen chaanlo hen,” ati.
And Joshua adjured [them] on that day before the Lord, saying, Cursed [be] the man who shall build that city: he shall lay the foundation of it in his first-born, and he shall set up the gates of it in his youngest son. And so did Hozan of Baethel; he laid the foundation in Abiron his first-born, and set up the gates of it in his youngest surviving son.
27 Hitichun Pakaiyin Joshua chu anaumpin hijeh chun gamsung pumpia chun amin ana kithanglheh jeng tan ahi.
And the Lord was with Joshua, and his name was in all the land.
