King James Version with Apocrypha
Baibal Olcim (Matupi Chin)
1When thou goest out to battle against thine enemies, and seest horses, and chariots, and a people more than thou, be not afraid of them: for the LORD thy God is with thee, which brought thee up out of the land of Egypt.
1Na thunkha taengah caem la na cet tih nang lakah aka yet pilnam kah marhang neh leng te na hmu cakhaw Egypt kho lamloh nang aka khuen BOEIPA na Pathen te nang taengla a om dongah amih te rhih boeh.
2And it shall be, when ye are come nigh unto the battle, that the priest shall approach and speak unto the people,
2Caemtloek neh na yoei vaengah khaw khosoih loh ha mop van saeh lamtah pilnam taengah ol aka thui la om van saeh.
3And shall say unto them, Hear, O Israel, ye approach this day unto battle against your enemies: let not your hearts faint, fear not, and do not tremble, neither be ye terrified because of them;
3Te vaengah amih te, “Israel nang loh hnatun lah. Tihnin kah na thunkha rhoek taengah caemtloek la na mop uh vaengah na thinko phoena sak boeh, rhih uh boeh, tamto uh boeh, amih mikhmuh ah na sarhing uh boeh.
4For the LORD your God is he that goeth with you, to fight for you against your enemies, to save you.
4Na thunkha rhoek te nangmih ham aka tloek tih nangmih aka khang ham ni BOEIPA na Pathen loh nangmih taengah a pongpa,” ti nah saeh.
5¶ And the officers shall speak unto the people, saying, What man is there that hath built a new house, and hath not dedicated it? let him go and return to his house, lest he die in the battle, and another man dedicate it.
5Rhoiboei rhoek long khaw pilnam te voek uh saeh lamtah, “Hlang khat khat loh im thai a sak tih a uum pawt atah cet saeh lamtah amah im la bal saeh. Caemtloek vaengah duek vetih hlang tloe loh vik uum pah ve.
6And what man is he that hath planted a vineyard, and hath not yet eaten of it? let him also go and return unto his house, lest he die in the battle, and another man eat of it.
6Hlang khat khat loh misur a ling tih a uem hlan atah cet saeh lamtah amah im la bal saeh. Caemtloek vaengah duek vetih hlang tloe loh vik uem pah ve.
7And what man is there that hath betrothed a wife, and hath not taken her? let him go and return unto his house, lest he die in the battle, and another man take her.
7Hlang khat khat loh yuu a bae tih a loh hlan atah cet saeh lamtah a im la bal saeh. Caemtloek vaengah duek vetih hlang tloe loh vik loh pah ve,” ti nah saeh.
8And the officers shall speak further unto the people, and they shall say, What man is there that is fearful and fainthearted? let him go and return unto his house, lest his brethren’s heart faint as well as his heart.
8Te phoeiah pilnam taengah a thui ham rhoiboei rhoek loh thap uh saeh lamtah, “Hlang khat khat long ni a rhih tih a thinko a mongkawt atah cet saeh lamtah amah im la bal saeh. Te daengah ni anih kah a thinko bangla a manuca rhoek kah a thinko khaw a yut pawt eh?,” ti na uh saeh.
9And it shall be, when the officers have made an end of speaking unto the people, that they shall make captains of the armies to lead the people.
9Pilnam taengkah olthui te rhoiboei rhoek loh a khah phoeiah pilnam kah a lu dongah caempuei rhoek kah mangpa te hlah la om saeh.
10¶ When thou comest nigh unto a city to fight against it, then proclaim peace unto it.
10Khopuei te na paan tih na vathoh thil vaengah anih te rhoepnah neh tuentah dae.
11And it shall be, if it make thee answer of peace, and open unto thee, then it shall be, that all the people that is found therein shall be tributaries unto thee, and they shall serve thee.
11Te vaengah nang te rhoepnah neh n'doo tih nang hamla thohka aka ong a om atah a khuikah m'hmuh pilnam boeih neh saldong khaw nang hamla om saeh lamtah nang taengah thotat uh saeh.
12And if it will make no peace with thee, but will make war against thee, then thou shalt besiege it:
12Tedae nang te n'thuung pawt tih nang te caem la m'hmoel atah amah te na dum van ni.
13And when the LORD thy God hath delivered it into thine hands, thou shalt smite every male thereof with the edge of the sword:
13Te vaengah anih te BOEIPA na Pathen loh na kut dongah han tloeng vetih cunghang ha neh amah tongpaca te boeih na tloek bitni.
14But the women, and the little ones, and the cattle, and all that is in the city, even all the spoil thereof, shalt thou take unto thyself; and thou shalt eat the spoil of thine enemies, which the LORD thy God hath given thee.
14Huta camoe neh rhamsa khaw, khopuei khuikah aka om boeih neh a kutbuem boeih khaw namah ham na poel na yoe vetih BOEIPA na Pathen loh nang taengah m'paek na thunkha rhoek kah a kutbuem te na caak ni.
15Thus shalt thou do unto all the cities which are very far off from thee, which are not of the cities of these nations.
15A yoei kah namtom khopuei rhoek he pawt tih namah taeng lamloh bahoeng aka hla khopuei rhoek te boeih na saii ni.
16But of the cities of these people, which the LORD thy God doth give thee for an inheritance, thou shalt save alive nothing that breatheth:
16Tedae BOEIPA na Pathen loh nang taengah rho la m'paek, pilnam rhoek kah khopuei ah hiil aka khueh boeih tah na hlun mahpawh.
17But thou shalt utterly destroy them; namely , the Hittites, and the Amorites, the Canaanites, and the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites; as the LORD thy God hath commanded thee:
17Te dongah amih Khitti neh Amori, Kanaani neh Perizzi, Khivee neh Jebusi ngawn tah BOEIPA na Pathen loh nang ng'uen vanbangla na thup rhoe na thup ni.
18That they teach you not to do after all their abominations, which they have done unto their gods; so should ye sin against the LORD your God.
18Amamih kah pathen rhoek taengah a saii uh tueilaehkoi boeih te saii hamla na cang mahpawh. BOEIPA na Pathen taengah na tholh van ve.
19¶ When thou shalt besiege a city a long time, in making war against it to take it, thou shalt not destroy the trees thereof by forcing an axe against them: for thou mayest eat of them, and thou shalt not cut them down (for the tree of the field is man’s life ) to employ them in the siege:
19Khopuei te tuuk ham neh tloek hamla khohnin a sen na dum atah a taengah hai neh heh tih a thing te na hum mahpawh. Amih te na caak thai dongah na vung mahpawh. Na mikhmuh kah vongup khuiah na paan te khaw khohmuen thingkung lamkah hlang boeiloeih ni.
20Only the trees which thou knowest that they be not trees for meat, thou shalt destroy and cut them down; and thou shalt build bulwarks against the city that maketh war with thee, until it be subdued.
20Tedae thingkung te a thaih aka om pawh thingkung la na ming atah na phae thai. Te vaengah na hum vetih nang taengah caem aka saii khopuei loh a tim hlandue tah vongsoel la na saii thai.
