1Jordan aka kat namtom boeih loh a soep la a om van vaeng daengah Joshua te BOEIPA loh a voek tih,
1When all the nation had completely crossed over the Jordan, the LORD spoke to Joshua, saying,
2“Pilnam lamkah te namamih ham hlang hlai nit tuek laeh. Koca khat lamloh hlang pakhat, hlang pakhat saeh.
2“Take twelve men out of the people, a man out of every tribe,
3Te phoeiah amih te uen lamtah thui pah. Jordan tuilung, rhaltawt hmuen kah khosoih kho a pai nah lungto hlai nit he namamih ham phuei uh. Te te namamih taengah kat puei lamtah khoyin kah na rhaeh nah rhaehim ah khueh uh,” a ti nah.
3and command them, saying, ‘Take from out of the middle of the Jordan, out of the place where the priests’ feet stood firm, twelve stones, carry them over with you, and lay them down in the place where you’ll camp tonight.’”
4Te dongah Joshua loh hlang hlai nit te a khue. Te te koca pakhat lamkah hlang pakhat, hlang pakhat te Israel ca khui lamloh a hmoel.
4Then Joshua called the twelve men whom he had prepared of the children of Israel, a man out of every tribe.
5Te phoeiah amih te Joshua loh, “BOEIPA na Pathen kah thingkawng hmai ah Jordan tuilung la kat uh lamtah Israel ca rhoek kah koca aka om tarhing loh a laengpang dongah lungto pakhat pakhat rhip kawt uh.
5Joshua said to them, “Cross before the ark of the LORD your God into the middle of the Jordan, and each of you pick up a stone and put it on your shoulder, according to the number of the tribes of the children of Israel;
6Te daengah ni miknoek he nangmih khui ah a om eh. Thangvuen ah na ca rhoek loh nangmih te n'dawt tih, 'Hekah lungto he bahamlae,’ a ti ni.
6that this may be a sign among you, that when your children ask in the future, saying, ‘What do you mean by these stones?’
7Te vaengah amih taengah, “Jordan lan ham vaengah BOEIPA paipi thingkawng hmai ah Jordan tui kak coeng. Jordan tui a kak coeng dongah hekah he Israel ca rhoek taengah poekkoepnah lungto la kumhal duela om saeh ti nah,” a ti nah.
7then you shall tell them, ‘Because the waters of the Jordan were cut off before the ark of the LORD’s covenant. When it crossed over the Jordan, the waters of the Jordan were cut off. These stones shall be for a memorial to the children of Israel forever.’”
8Te dongah Joshua loh a uen vanbangla Israel ca rhoek loh a saii uh. BOEIPA loh Joshua taengkah a thui bangla Jordan tuilung lamkah lungto hlai nit te Israel ca rhoek kah koca tarhing la a koh uh tih rhaehim te a paan puei phoeiah a khueh uh.
8The children of Israel did as Joshua commanded, and took up twelve stones out of the middle of the Jordan, as the LORD spoke to Joshua, according to the number of the tribes of the children of Israel. They carried them over with them to the place where they camped, and laid them down there.
9Te dongah paipi thingkawng aka kawt khosoih kho kah rhaltawt hmuen, Jordan tuilung ah Joshua loh lungto hlai nit a ling tih tihnin due om pueng.
9Joshua set up twelve stones in the middle of the Jordan, in the place where the feet of the priests who bore the ark of the covenant stood; and they are there to this day.
10Pilnam taengah Joshua loh thui hamla BOEIPA loh a uen hno te Joshua taengah Moses loh boeih a uen vanbangla boeih a coeng due thingkawng aka kawt khosoih rhoek khaw Jordan tuilung ah pai uh. Te vaengah pilnam long khaw baang kat uh van.
10For the priests who bore the ark stood in the middle of the Jordan until everything was finished that the LORD commanded Joshua to speak to the people, according to all that Moses commanded Joshua; and the people hurried and passed over.
11Aka kat ham koi pilnam loh boeih a soep van neh BOEIPA thingkawng neh khosoih rhoek khaw pilnam kah mikhmuh ah kat phai van.
11When all the people had completely crossed over, the LORD’s ark crossed over with the priests in the presence of the people.
12Reuben koca rhoek, Gad koca rhoek neh Manasseh koca hlangvang te tah Moses kah a thui bangla Israel ca rhoek kah a mikhmuh ah caem la cet uh.
12The children of Reuben, and the children of Gad, and the half-tribe of Manasseh crossed over armed before the children of Israel, as Moses spoke to them.
13Jerikho kolken ah caemtloek ham thawng sawmli tluk loh BOEIPA mikhmuh ah pumcum uh tih caempuei la khoong uh.
13About forty thousand men, ready and armed for war, passed over before the LORD to battle, to the plains of Jericho.
14Te khohnin ah BOEIPA loh Joshua te Israel pum kah mikhmuh ah a pomsang tih a hing tue khuiah Moses a rhih uh bangla anih khaw a rhih uh.
14On that day, the LORD magnified Joshua in the sight of all Israel; and they feared him, as they feared Moses, all the days of his life.
15Te phoeiah BOEIPA loh Joshua te a voek tih,
15The LORD spoke to Joshua, saying,
16“Olphong thingkawng aka kawt khosoih rhoek te uen lamtah Jordan lamkah ha luei uh saeh,” a ti nah.
16“Command the priests who bear the ark of the covenant, that they come up out of the Jordan.”
17Te dongah Joshua loh khosoih rhoek te a uen tih, “Jordan lamloh ha luei uh laeh,” a ti nah.
17Joshua therefore commanded the priests, saying, “Come up out of the Jordan!”
18Te dongah BOEIPA kah paipi thingkawng aka kawt khosoih rhoek loh Jordan tuilung lamkah ha luei la ha luei uh. Tedae khosoih rhoek kah a khopha loh lanhak la a cawt van neh Jordan tui khaw amah hmuen la bal tih hlaem hlavai kah bangla tuikaeng tom ah khawk li.
18When the priests who bore the ark of the LORD’s covenant had come up out of the middle of the Jordan, and the soles of the priests’ feet had been lifted up to the dry ground, the waters of the Jordan returned to their place, and went over all its banks, as before.
19Te dongah pilnam loh Jordan lamkah ha luei uh tih a hla khat dongkah a hnin rha vaengah tah Jerikho khocuk rhi kah Gilgal ah rhaeh uh.
19The people came up out of the Jordan on the tenth day of the first month, and encamped in Gilgal, on the east border of Jericho.
20Te vaengah Jordan lamkah a khuen uh lungto hlai nit te Joshua loh Gilgal ah a ling.
20Joshua set up those twelve stones, which they took out of the Jordan, in Gilgal.
21Israel ca rhoek te khaw a voek tih, “Thangvuen ah na ca rhoek loh a napa rhoek te a dawt uh tih, 'Hekah lungto he bahamlae?,” a ti uh vaengah,
21He spoke to the children of Israel, saying, “When your children ask their fathers in time to come, saying, ‘What do these stones mean?’
22na ca rhoek te khaw tukkil uh lamtah, “Jordan he Israel loh laiphuei longah a lan ti nah.
22Then you shall let your children know, saying, ‘Israel came over this Jordan on dry land.
23Na Pathen BOEIPA loh carhaek tuipuei kah a saii bangla na poeng hil na mikhmuh kah Jordan tui te na Pathen BOEIPA loh a kak sak. Te te mamih loh m'poeng hil mamih mikhmuh ah a rhae sak.
23For the LORD your God dried up the waters of the Jordan from before you until you had crossed over, as the LORD your God did to the Red Sea, which he dried up from before us, until we had crossed over,
24BOEIPA kah tlungluen kut te diklai pilnam rhoek loh boeih ming uh kangna saeh. Te daengah ni na hing tue khui boeih ah BOEIPA na Pathen te na rhih eh?,” a ti nah.
24that all the peoples of the earth may know that the LORD’s hand is mighty, and that you may fear the LORD your God forever.’”
