< Joshua 17 >

1 Gamloding kihopna abannachu Joseph chillhah chamasa Manasseh phung akehkhat chu akipen ahi. Makir Manesseh chamasa chu Gilead dia apa ahi. Ama chilhah hohi galhatmi ahiyehun Jordan solam gamkaija um Gilead le Bashan chu anakipesa ahi.
And [this] was the lot for the tribe of Manasseh; for he was the firstborn of Joseph. As for Machir the firstborn of Manasseh, the father of Gilead, because he was a man of war, therefore he had Gilead and Bashan.
2 Hitichun Jordan lhumlam gamkai Abizer, Helek, Asreil, Sechom, Hepher, chuleh Shemida hohi Manasseh phungkhai sung lah’a avatnalai insungho chan ding ahi. Hiche bahkhai hohin Joseph cha Manasseh chilhah pasalho thalheng ahiuve.
And [the lot] was for the rest of the children of Manasseh according to their families; for the children of Abiezer, and for the children of Helek, and for the children of Asriel, and for the children of Shechem, and for the children of Hepher, and for the children of Shemida: these were the male children of Manasseh the son of Joseph according to their families.
3 Ahiyeng vang'in Manasseh chapa Makir, Makir chapa Gilead, Gilead chapa Hepher, Hepher chapa Zelophahad chu cha neilou ahin, aman chanubou aneijin amaho minchu Malah, Noah, Haglah, Milcah chuleh Tirzah ahiuve.
But Zelophehad, the son of Hepher, the son of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, had no sons, but daughters: and these are the names of his daughters, Mahlah, and Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah.
4 Hiche numei hohi, thempupa Eleazer, Nun chapa Joshua, chuleh Israel lamkaiho kommah ahungun hitin ahungseijun ahi, “Pakaiyin, Mose jah’a eyhole kasopiteu pasalho gamlodi eipehdiovin thupeh anapen ahi” atiove. Hijeh chun Joshua’n jong ama hochu Pakai thupeh banga apa-ngahteo chan bangin gamchu anapen ahi.
And they came near before Eleazar the priest, and before Joshua the son of Nun, and before the princes, saying, The LORD commanded Moses to give us an inheritance among our brethren: therefore according to the commandment of the LORD he gave them an inheritance among the brethren of their father.
5 Hijeh chun Manasseh chan apumpi chu Jordan vadung galla Gilead leh Bashan gamchan banna chu gamchan oma hung lhingtan ahi.
And there fell ten parts to Manasseh, beside the land of Gilead and Bashan, which is beyond Jordan;
6 Ajeh chu Manasseh chilhah numei hojong pasal chilhah chanto kibanga achanjeh’u ahi. (Gilead gamchu Manasseh chilhah pasal amoh ho kipeh ahi).
because the daughters of Manasseh had an inheritance among his sons: and the land of Gilead belonged unto the rest of the sons of Manasseh.
7 Manasseh phung gamgichu Asher gamgi hina kon in Secheme kom Micmethath changei jin ahung kikholutnin ahi. Hichea konchun gamgichu Micmethath’a kon in achesuhin Tappuah twinah putna komma chenna munho geijin ahung kilhung lut in ahi.
And the border of Manasseh was from Asher to Michmethath, which is before Shechem; and the border went along to the right hand, unto the inhabitants of En-tappuah.
8 Tappuah velkolla gamho chu Manasseh chan ahi. Manasseh gamgi a um Tappuah khopi tah vang chu Ephraim phung mite chan ahi.
The land of Tappuah belonged to Manasseh: but Tappuah on the border of Manasseh belonged to the children of Ephraim.
9 Tappuah twinah putna akonnin Manasseh gamgi chun Kanah vadungneo chu ajuijin Meditteranean twikhanglen'ah alutnin ahi. Hiche vadungneo lhanglanga khopi phabep chu Manasseh gamsung ahi, ahinla hiche hochu atah beh’in Ephraim phungho chan ahi.
And the border went down unto the brook of Kanah, southward of the brook: these cities belonged to Ephraim among the cities of Manasseh: and the border of Manasseh was on the north side of the brook, and the goings out thereof were at the sea:
10 Alhanglhon invang, hiche vadungneo lhanglam gamchu Ephraimte chan ahi, chuleh vadungneo sahlang gamchu Manasseh te chan ahi. Manasseh gamgi vadungneo sahlang gamkai chutoh akilhonin Mediterranean nah a atangin ahi. Manasseh sahlang chu Asher gam ahin chuleh sahlang vangchu Issachar gam ahi.
southward it was Ephraim’s, and northward it was Manasseh’s, and the sea was his border; and they reached to Asher on the north, and to Issachar on the east.
11 Ahivangin Issachar le Asher gamgi sunga um khopi ho, Beth-shan khopi, Ibleam khopi, Dor khopi (Hichu Naphoth-dor), Endor, Taanach khopi chule Megiddo khopi holeh agamsunga cheng hojouse chu Manasseh chan din anakipe tan ahi.
And Manasseh had in Issachar and in Asher Beth-shean and her towns, and Ibleam and her towns, and the inhabitants of Dor and her towns, and the inhabitants of En-dor and her towns, and the inhabitants of Taanach and her towns, and the inhabitants of Megiddo and her towns, even the three heights.
12 Ahinlah Manasseh chilhah chengse chun hiche khopi ho chu analalut joupou vin ahi. Amahon Canaan mite chu anadel-mang jou pouvin tuni geijin aum nalaijun hai.
Yet the children of Manasseh could not drive out [the inhabitants] of those cities; but the Canaanites would dwell in that land.
13 Ahinlah khonunga Israelte ahung hatdoh phatnuvin Canaan mite chu soh in amang taovin ahi. Ahinlah agam sunguva kon in anodoh joupouvin ahi.
And it came to pass, when the children of Israel were waxen strong, that they put the Canaanites to taskwork, and did not utterly drive them out.
14 Joseph chilhahte Joshua kommah ahungun hiti hin ahung dong’ui, “Pakaiyin hibanga eipunsahuva ipi dinga kachenna dio gamhi chan khatbou neipeh ham?”
And the children of Joseph spake unto Joshua, saying, Why hast thou given me but one lot and one part for an inheritance, seeing I am a great people, forasmuch as hitherto the LORD hath blessed me?
15 Joshua’n adonbutnin “Nangho natamlheh jengtah uva Ephraim thinglhang gam nangho dinga aneotaha ahileh hiche Periz mitele Reph mite channa gammang lahkhu nangho dingin gakisuhtheng taovin atipeh in ahi.”
And Joshua said unto them, If thou be a great people, get thee up to the forest, and cut down for thyself there in the land of the Perizzites and of the Rephaim; since the hill country of Ephraim is too narrow for thee.
16 Joseph chilhahte chun adonbutnin, “Thinglhang gamhi keiho dingin alhing joupoi katiu hi atahbeh ahi. Ahinlah Canaan mite gamnomma cheng holeh Jezreel phaichamma um hohin thih sakol kangtalai aneijun, amahohi keihon kadoudio vin ahahsa valle atiove.”
And the children of Joseph said, The hill country is not enough for us: and all the Canaanites that dwell in the land of the valley have chariots of iron, both they who are in Beth-shean and her towns, and they who are in the valley of Jezreel.
17 Hichun Joshua’n Joseph chilhahte Ephraim le Manasseh phungmi teho kommah hitin aseije “Nanghohi natammuve nahatlheh jeng taove ahileh nangho dingahi chan khatval kipeding nahiuve.
And Joshua spake unto the house of Joseph, even to Ephraim and to Manasseh, saying, Thou art a great people, and hast great power: thou shalt not have one lot only:
18 Thinglhang gammang lahkhu nangho nachan bediu ahi. Nanghon nasuhtheng nom chanun gakisuhthengun agam lapen aningkoi changeijin galo tauvin phaichamma Canaan mite jeng jongkhu hatlheh uhenlang thih sakol kangtalai neijongleo ganodoh taovin,” ati.
but the hill country shall be thine; for though it is a forest, thou shalt cut it down, and the goings out thereof shall be thine: for thou shalt drive out the Canaanites, though they have chariots of iron, and though they be strong.
