And Arad the Chananitish king who dwelt by the wilderness, heard that Israel came by the way of Atharin; and he made war on Israel, and carried off some of them captives.

And the Lord hearkened to the voice of Israel, and delivered the Chananite into his power; and [Israel] devoted him and his cities, and they called the name of that place Anathema.

And the people spoke against God and against Moses, saying, Why is this? Hast thou brought us ought of Egypt to slay us in the wilderness? for there is not bread nor water; and our soul loathes this light bread.
6 Hichun Pakajin Israel mite chunga alunghang na ahin bunglhan ahile aneh nauva chun gu ajaovin mi phabep in thina atoh tauvin ahi.
And the Lord sent among the people deadly serpents, and they bit the people, and much people of the children of Israel died.

And Moses prayed to the Lord for the people; and the Lord said to Moses, Make thee a serpent, and put it on a signal-[staff]; and it shall come to pass that whenever a serpent shall bite a man, every one [so] bitten that looks upon it shall live.

And the children of Israel departed, and encamped in Oboth.
11 Chuin amaho Oboth apat in Ije-Abarim mun lam ahoh pauvin gamthip lam Moab sodoh nalam chu ahi.
And having departed from Oboth, they encamped in Achalgai, on the farther side in the wilderness, which is opposite Moab, toward the east.

And thence they departed, and encamped in the valley of Zared.
13 Hichun amaho aki pat doh un Arnon vadung gamthip Amor mite chenna gam lam jon in achie kit tauvin, Arnon vadung hi Moab mite le Amor mite gamgi ahiye.
And they departed thence and encamped on the other side of Arnon in the wilderness, [the country] which extends from the coasts of the Amorites; for Arnon is the borders of Moab, between Moab and the Amorites.
14 Hijeh chun Pathen lekhabua kimu Pakai galbolna hichu Arnon vadung mun ahi.
Therefore it is said in a book, A war of the Lord has set on fire Zoob, and the brooks of Arnon.

And thence [they came to] the well; this [is] the well of which the Lord said to Moses, Gather the people, and I will give them water to drink.
17 Hiche muna chun Israel miten Pathen vahchoila asauvin, ama thangvah nan adim uve.
Then Israel sang this song at the well, Begin [to sing] of the well;
18 Hiche tui umna muna chun lengnu apang hoi ahiuvin, lamkai ho ahin, abonchauvin twikhuh chu alaiyun chu in Mattanah lam jon in ache tauvin ahi.
the princes digged it, the kings of the nations in their kingdom, in their lordship sank it in the rock: and [they went] from the well to Manthanain,
19 Mattanah apat’in Nahaliel gam chu ajon un chu in Nahaliel apat in Bamoth ajon un ahi.
and from Manthanain to Naaliel, and from Naaliel to Bamoth, and from Bamoth to Janen, which is in the plain of Moab [as seen] from the top of the quarried [rock] that looks toward the wilderness.
20 Bamoth phaicham alhung tauvin hichu Moab gamsung ahin Pisgah mun hiche apat chu Jeshimon lam ki galdot ahi tai.
And Moses sent ambassadors to Seon king of the Amorites, with peaceable words, saying,
21 Chuin Israel miten Mose lamkaijin Amor mite lengpa Sihon henga thuthot aneiyun ahi.
We will pass through thy land, we will go by the road; we will not turn aside to the field or to the vineyard.
22 Keima hon nagam leiset chu kapel thei diu ham keiho ching thei tah a kachi diu chule lengpi lei lah a kachi lou diu nangho tuikhuh a jong tui kadon lou diu ahi. Nangho gamkai sunga hi lengpa lamlen bou kaho pa diu ahi bouve, tin aseiyun ahi.
We will not drink water out of thy well; we will go by the king's highway, until we have past thy boundaries.

And Seon did not allow Israel to pass through his borders, and Seon gathered all his people, and went out to set the battle in array against Israel into the wilderness; and he came to Jassa, and set the battle in array against Israel.

And Israel smote him with the slaughter of the sword, and they became possessors of his land, from Arnon to Jaboc, as far as the children of Amman, for Jazer is the borders of the children of Amman.
25 Hichun Isreal mite le Amon miten agam le lei jouse alo sohtauvin Hesbon khopi ahin adang dang khovel ho jong atou pha sohtauvin ahi.
And Israel took all their cities, and Israel dwelt in all the cities of the Amorites, in Esebon, and in all cities belonging to it.
26 Amor mite lengpa Sihon dinga Hesbon khopi ana hin Moab mite lengpa kulpi jong ana tou pha in chule Arnon vadung gei ana toupha in ahi.
For Esebon is the city of Seon king of the Amorites; and he before fought against the king of Moab, and they took all his land, from Aroer to Arnon.
27 Mimasa hon Sihon thusimho anajihlut un ahile Hesbon lang apat nang ho hung umdol thusim chu hiche ahin Sihon khopi avella kitung doh kit ahiye.
Therefore say they who deal in dark speeches, Come to Esebon, that the city of Seon may be built and prepared.

For a fire has gone forth from Esebon, a flame from the city of Seon, and has consumed as far as Moab, and devoured the pillars of Arnon.
29 Moab mite hi itabang genthei nan alhun khum hitam! Chemosh boh khup teho nangma akichai na hitai Chemosh in pasal ho umna neilou bang asoh tan a chanu te vang chu Sihon, Amor mite lengpa khut’a asoh achang tauvin ahi.
Woe to thee, Moab; thou art lost, thou people of Chamos: their sons are sold for preservation, and their daughters are captives to Seon king of the Amorites.
30 Eihon amaho chu Hesbon a pat’a Dibon gei chu isuh cheh taovin, eihon amho chu Nophah apat Medeba gei chu ipum nocheh taovin ahi.
And their seed shall perish [from] Esebon to Daebon; and their women have yet farther kindled a fire against Moab.

And Moses sent to spy out Jazer; and they took it, and its villages, and cast out the Amorite that dwelt there.
33 Hichun Isreal mite aki nung hei taovin Bashan jotna lam ajon tauvin, amavang Bashan lengpa Og chun ama nam mite jouse chutoh Edrei mun ah ana bulhu uvin ahi.
And having returned, they went up the road thhebraismat leads to Basan; and Og the king of Basan went forth to meet them, and all his people to war to Edrain.

And the Lord said to Moses, Fear him not; for I have delivered him and all his people, and all his land, into thy hands; and thou shalt do to him as thou didst to Seon king of the Amorites, who dwelt in Esebon.
35 Hichun Isreal miten Og lengpa kiti pa ahin amite jouse chu koimacha ahing a nakoi loubeh diu ahi tai. Hichun Isreal miten Bashan mite jouse chu agam le aleiset atou pha taovin asat gam tauve.
And he smote him and his sons, and all his people, until he left none of his to be taken alive; and they inherited his land.
