< Thutan Vaihom Ho 3 >

1 Hiche nam hohi Canaan mite kisatna–a anapang khalou, Israelte patepna dinga Pakaiyin gamsunga anadalhah hochu ahi.
Now these are the nations which the LORD left, to prove Israel by them, even as many of Israel as had not known all the wars of Canaan;
2 Aman hiche hi galsatji hekhalou lai Israel khangthah ho galsatje akithem chuhna diuva abol ahi.
only that the generations of the children of Israel might know, to teach them war, at the least such as before knew nothing of it:
3 Hiche nam hochu Philistine’te (Phillistine vaipo nga ho noiya cheng hochu ahiuve), Canaan mite jouse, Sidon mite chule Baal-hermon mol apat Lebo-hamath changeiya kijam lhungpeh Lebanon mol chunga cheng Hiv mite ahiuve.
namely, the five lords of the Philistines, and all the Canaanites, and the Sidonians, and the Hivites who lived on Mount Lebanon, from Mount Baal Hermon to Lebo Hamath.
4 Pakaiyin Mose mangchan apu apateu thupeh anapeh hochu, Israel mite hin anit uvem anitlou uham? Ti hetna dinga hiche mipite hohi ana dalhah ahi.
They were left, to prove Israel by them, to know whether they would listen to the commandments of the LORD, which he commanded their fathers by the hand of Moses.
5 Hiti chun Israel tehi Canaan mite, Hit mite, Amor mite, Periz mite, Hiv mite chuleh Jebus mite lah'a cheng ahiuvin,
The children of Israel lived among the Canaanites, the Hethites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites:
6 chuleh amaho toh akicheng touvin, Israel chapaten amaho chanu teho akichen piuvin, chule Israel chanute chu amaho chapate toh kicheng ding in ana peuvin ahi. Hiti chun Israelten amaho pathen ho chu ajenle tauve.
and they took their daughters to be their wives, and gave their own daughters to their sons and served their gods.
7 Israelten Pakai mitmun thilse jeng anabol tauvin, amahon a-Pakai, a-Pathen uchu asumil tauvin, chule amahon Baal leh Asherah milim semthu hochu jenle in ana pang tauvin ahi.
The children of Israel did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, and forgot the LORD their God, and served the Baals and the Asheroth.
8 Hijeh chun Pakai chu Israel dounan alunghang lheh jengtan, hijeh chun Ram-naharaim lengpa Cushan-rishathaim khut’ah ana pedohtan, chuin Israelten kumget sungin Cushan-rishathaim sohna ana tongun ahi.
Therefore the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel, and he sold them into the hand of Cushan Rishathaim king of Aram Naharaim; and the children of Israel served Cushan Rishathaim eight years.
9 Hinlah Israel mite chu Pakai koma panpi ngaichan ana kaptauvin ahileh, Pakaiyin amaho huhdoh dingin mikhat ana tungdoh in, amachu Caleb naopa Kenaz chapa Othniel ahi.
When the children of Israel cried to the LORD, the LORD raised up a savior to the children of Israel, who saved them, even Othniel the son of Kenaz, Caleb's younger brother; and he obeyed him.
10 Pakai Lhagao chu achunga ahungchun hiti chun ama Israelte thutan vaihom’in ahung pangtan, chuin Othniel chu Ram lengpa Cushan-rishathaim chunga galboldin ahung kipantan ahileh Pakaiyin gal anajo sahtan.
The Spirit of the LORD came on him, and he judged Israel; and he went out to war, and the LORD delivered Cushan Rishathaim king of Mesopotamia into his hand: and his hand prevailed against Cushan Rishathaim.
11 Hijeh chun kum somli gamsunga chamna ana umm in, chujouvin Kenaz chapa Othniel chu ana thitan ahi.
The land had rest forty years. And Othniel the son of Kenaz died.
12 Avelin Israelten Pakai mitmun thilse jeng ana bolkit tauvin ahileh, hitobanga athilse bol jeh uhin Pakaiyin Moab lengpa Eglon chu Israelte chungah ana vaihom sahtan ahi.
The children of Israel again did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD: and the LORD strengthened Eglon the king of Moab against Israel, because they had done that which was evil in the sight of the LORD.
13 Eglon’in Ammon mite leh Amalek mite chu ana kiloikhompin, hitichun anakon'un Israelte chu anajou tauvin Lusuga lei tia kihe Jericho khopi chu ana toupha tauvin ahi.
He gathered to him the people of Ammon and Amalek; and he went and struck Israel, and they possessed the city of palm trees.
14 Hiti chun Israelten Moab lengpa Eglon noiya kum somle get sungin sohna ana tong’un ahi.
The children of Israel served Eglon the king of Moab eighteen years.
15 Ahinlah Israelte chu panpi ngaichat nan Pakai koma ana kapjah jeng tauvin ahileh, Pakaiyin amaho huhdoh dingin mikhat ahin tungdoh kit in, ama minchu Gera chapa Ehud ahi. Benjamin phunga kona khutvei-long pachu anahi. Israelten Moab lengpa Eglon koma kai apehdiu chu Ehud agathah sah’un ahi.
But when the children of Israel cried to the LORD, the LORD raised them up a savior, Ehud the son of Gera, the Benjamite, a man left-handed. The children of Israel sent tribute by him to Eglon the king of Moab.
16 Hiti chun Ehud in tong-khat a sao, alangtoa hem chemkhat ajetlam mal’ah ajeplut'in pon akhu khum’in ahi.
Ehud made him a sword which had two edges, eighteen inches in length; and he girded it under his clothing on his right thigh.
17 Aman mithaotah Eglon koma chun kai-pehding sum chu ahin pon ahung in ahi.
He offered the tribute to Eglon king of Moab: now Eglon was a very fat man.
18 Athilpeh chu apehchai phat in Ehud chu ache khompi cheng chutoh inlang cheding in ahung kipat doh tauvin ahi.
When he had made an end of offering the tribute, he sent away the people who bore the tribute.
19 Hinlah Ehud chu Gilgal koma song milim kisem kom ahunglhun phat'in ahung kileheijin, Eglon koma chun ahungin, “Keiman thuguh seiding khat kaneiye” ati. Hijeh chun lengpan ama lhachaho koma chun, “Thipbeh un” atin, amaho chu aindan sunga kon chun asoldoh tan ahi.
But he himself turned back from the quarries that were by Gilgal, and said, "I have a secret message for you, O king." The king said, "Keep silence." All who stood by him went out from him.
20 Ehud chu ain-chung dana dap heova achangseh'a tou Eglon koma chun achelut in Eglon koma chun, “Keiman Pathen akon in nang dinga thuthot khat kahinpoi ati.” Hitia chu Eglon lengpa chu atouna-a kona adindoh chun,
Ehud came to him; and he was sitting by himself alone in the cool upper room. Ehud said, "I have a message from God to you, O king." He arose out of his seat.
21 Ehud’in avei-langin amal jetlama aje achem chu asatdoh in, lengpa oi achun aphut luttan ahi.
And it happened as he rose up that Ehud put forth his left hand and took the sword from his right thigh and thrust it into his belly.
22 Chemchu alutthuh jeh'in lengpa a-oi thaolah a chun achem kungjong chu alhum heltan ahi. Hijeh chun Ehud’in chemchu anung loidoh tapon, chule amaha’a kon chun lengpa eh jong ahungdoh leu tan ahi.
And the handle also went in after the blade; and the fat closed on the blade, for he didn't draw the sword out of his belly; and it came out behind.
23 Hiche jouchun Ehud’in hiche indan kot hochu akamsoh keiyin kanglong aheh khum in, ehbuh langa achomlhan ajamdoh tai.
Then Ehud went forth into the porch, and shut the doors of the upper room on him, and locked them.
24 Ehud achedoh jouphat chun lengpa lhacha hochu ahung kinung leuvin ahileh, inchung dan kot jouse chu ana kikam sohkei chu agamu tauvin, amahon insung dana chu eh athah hiding in agelun ahi.
Now when he was gone out, his servants came; and they saw, and look, the doors of the upper room were locked; and they said, "Surely he is covering his feet in the upper room."
25 Hijeh chun chomkhat set angah un, ahinlah phat sotthimtah anga vangun lengpa chu ahungdoh deh tapon, hichun atijaovin akot-heh chu agala tauvin ahileh, amahon kotchu ahon phat’un, apupau chu athisa lhonga kijam agamudoh tauvin ahi.
They waited until they were ashamed; and look, he did not open the doors of the upper room: therefore they took the key, and opened them, and look, their lord was fallen down dead on the earth.
26 Lhacha hochu ageisangle kah uchun Ehud chu ajamdoh in song milim kisem lamchu ahopa in Seirah lam-ah ajamdoh tan ahi.
Ehud escaped while they waited, and passed beyond the quarries, and escaped to Seirah.
27 Ama Ephraim thinglhang gam alhunphat in Ehud chun gal kona ding sumkon amuttan, hichun Israel mi honkhat chu thinglhanga kon in apuisuh in
It happened, when he had come, that he blew a trumpet in the hill country of Ephraim; and the children of Israel went down with him from the hill country, and he before them.
28 “Neijuiyun,” ati, “Ajeh chu nagal miho Moab mite chunga hi Pakaiyin galjona napeh'u ahitai,” ati. Hijeh chun amahon ajuiyun, Moab akona Jordan vadung galkaina palmun jouse chu atouphauvin koimacha agal kaisah pouvin ahi.
He said to them, "Follow after me; for the LORD has delivered your enemies the Moabites into your hand." They went down after him, and took the fords of the Jordan against the Moabites, and did not allow a man to pass over.
29 Amahon Moab mite chu akisat peuvin amaho lah'a ahat pen hole galsat themcheh ho khatcha jong sohcha louhel in, mihem sangsom athat’un ahi.
They struck of Moab at that time about ten thousand men, every lusty man, and every man of valor; and there escaped not a man.
30 Hiti chun Israelten Moab’te chu anajou’un gamsung achun kum somget jen chamna ana um-in ahi.
So Moab was subdued that day under the hand of Israel. Then the land had rest eighty years. And Ehud judged them until he died.
31 Ehud nungin Anath chapa Shamgar chun Israelte ana huhdoh in, aman bongchal khagu mangcha in khatvei chu Phillistinete mi jagup anathat in ahi.
And after him was Shamgar the son of Anath, who alone struck down six hundred men of the Philistines with an oxgoad. And he also saved Israel.
