Baibal Olcim (Matupi Chin)
1The Canaanite, the king of Arad, who lived in the South, heard that Israel came by the way of Atharim. He fought against Israel, and took some of them captive.
1Tuithim kah khosa Arad manghai Kanaan loh Atharim longpuei ah Israel a pawk te a yaak vaengah Israel te a vathoh tih tamna la a sol.
2Israel vowed a vow to the LORD, and said, “If you will indeed deliver this people into my hand, then I will utterly destroy their cities.”
2Te vaengah Israel loh BOEIPA taengah olcaeng neh a caeng tih, “He pilnam he ka kut ah nan paek la nan paek atah a khopuei khaw ka thup bitni,” a ti nah.
3The LORD listened to the voice of Israel, and delivered up the Canaanites; and they utterly destroyed them and their cities. The name of the place was called Hormah.
3BOEIPA loh Israel kah ol te a yaak dongah Kanaan te a paek. Te dongah amih neh a khopuei te a thup tih a hmuen ming te Hormah a sak.
4They traveled from Mount Hor by the way to the Red Sea, to go around the land of Edom. The soul of the people was very discouraged because of the journey.
4Hor tlang lamloh carhaek tuili longpuei la Edom khohmuen te lan ham cet uh. Tedae longpueng ah pilnam kah hinglu tah a huet pah.
5The people spoke against God and against Moses: “Why have you brought us up out of Egypt to die in the wilderness? For there is no bread, there is no water, and our soul loathes this disgusting food!”
5Te dongah pilnam loh Pathen taeng neh Moses taengah, “Khosoek ah duek ham mai he balae tih Egypt lamloh kaimih nang khuen. Buh om pawh, tui om pawh. Buh kak tangkik he kaimih kah hinglu khaw a mueipuel coeng,” a ti uh.
6The LORD sent venomous snakes among the people, and they bit the people. Many people of Israel died.
6Te dongah BOEIPA loh pilnam taengah minyuk rhul te a tueih pah tih pilnam te a tuk dongah Israel khui lamkah pilnam muep duek.
7The people came to Moses, and said, “We have sinned, because we have spoken against the LORD and against you. Pray to the LORD, that he take away the serpents from us.” Moses prayed for the people.
7Te vaengah pilnam te Moses taengla cet tih, “BOEIPA taeng neh nang taengah ka cal uh tholh coeng. BOEIPA taengah thangthui lamtah rhul te kaimih taeng lamloh khoe mai saeh,” a ti uh. Te dongah Moses te pilnam ham a thangthui pah.
8The LORD said to Moses, “Make a venomous snake, and set it on a pole. It shall happen that everyone who is bitten, when he sees it, shall live.”
8Te dongah BOEIPA loh Moses te, “Namah loh minyuk saii lamtah rholik soah bang, te vaengah nana om bitni, rhul kah a tuk boeih loh te te a hmuh vaengah hing ni,” a ti nah.
9Moses made a serpent of bronze, and set it on the pole. If a serpent had bitten any man, when he looked at the serpent of bronze, he lived.
9Te phoeiah Moses loh rhohum rhul te a saii tih rholik dongah a tai. Te a om phoeiah atah rhul loh hlang a tuk akhaw rhohum rhul te a paelki tih hing.
10The children of Israel traveled, and encamped in Oboth.
10Te phoeiah Israel ca rhoek te thoeih uh tih Oboth ah rhaeh uh.
11They traveled from Oboth, and encamped at Iyeabarim, in the wilderness which is before Moab, toward the sunrise.
11Oboth lamloh thoeih uh tih khomik khocuk kah Moab dan, Ijeabarim khosoek ah rhaeh uh.
12From there they traveled, and encamped in the valley of Zered.
12Te lamloh cet uh tih Zered soklong ah rhaeh uh.
13From there they traveled, and encamped on the other side of the Arnon, which is in the wilderness that comes out of the border of the Amorites; for the Arnon is the border of Moab, between Moab and the Amorites.
13Te lamloh cet uh tih Amori khorhi lamkah aka pawk khosoek kah Arnon rhalvangan ah rhaeh uh. Moab khorhi kah Arnon tah Moab laklo neh Amori laklo ah om.
14Therefore it is said in The Book of the Wars of the LORD , “Vaheb in Suphah, the valleys of the Arnon,
14Te dongah BOEIPA kah caemtloek cabu khuiah tah “Suphah kah Vaheb neh Arnon soklong,” a ti.
15the slope of the valleys that incline toward the dwelling of Ar, leans on the border of Moab.”
15Soklong kah tuibah te Ar khosa la a doo tih Moab khorhi te a pangnat.
16From there they traveled to Beer; that is the well of which the LORD said to Moses, “Gather the people together, and I will give them water.”
16Te lamloh Beer la thoeih uh tih tekah tuito ah tah BOEIPA loh Moses te, “Pilnam te coi lamtah amih te tui ka pae eh?,” a ti nah.
17Then Israel sang this song: “Spring up, well! Sing to it,
17Te vaengah Israel loh hekah laa he a hlai. Tuito phuet lah, amah te doo lah.
18the well, which the princes dug, which the nobles of the people dug, with the scepter, and with their poles.” From the wilderness they traveled to Mattanah;
18Tuito te mangpa rhoek loh a too uh tih, pilnam hlangcong rhoek loh a vueh. Mattanah khosoek lamloh a conghol neh a taem uh.
19and from Mattanah to Nahaliel; and from Nahaliel to Bamoth;
19Mattanah lamloh kaloh Nahaliel, Nahaliel lamloh Bamoth,
20and from Bamoth to the valley that is in the field of Moab, to the top of Pisgah, which looks down on the desert.
20Bamoth lamloh Moab khohmuen kah kolrhawk, Pisgah som neh khopong hmai kah a dan la thoeih uh.
21Israel sent messengers to Sihon king of the Amorites, saying,
21Israel loh Amori manghai Sihon taengah puencawn a tueih tih,
22“Let me pass through your land. We will not turn away into field or vineyard. We will not drink of the water of the wells. We will go by the king’s highway, until we have passed your border.”
22“Na khohmuen longah ka kat mai eh, lohma li neh misurdum khuiah ka ael uh mahpawh, tuito tui khaw ka o uh mahpawh, na khorhi ka poeng hil manghai longpuei bangla ka vai uh bitni,” a ti nah.
23Sihon would not allow Israel to pass through his border, but Sihon gathered all his people together, and went out against Israel into the wilderness, and came to Jahaz. He fought against Israel.
23Tedae Sihon loh Israel te a khorhi longah kat sak pawh. Sihon loh a pilnam boeih te a coi tih Israel doe ham khosoek la cet uh. Jahaz la a pawk vaengah Israel te a tloek.
24Israel struck him with the edge of the sword, and possessed his land from the Arnon to the Jabbok, even to the children of Ammon; for the border of the children of Ammon was fortified.
24Te dongah Israel loh anih te cunghang ha neh a tloek tih a khohmuen te Arnon lamloh Jabbok hil, Ammon koca taeng duela a huul pa. Te vaengah Ammon koca khorhi tah cak.
25Israel took all these cities. Israel lived in all the cities of the Amorites, in Heshbon, and in all its villages.
25Israel ca loh te kah khopuei boeih te a loh pah. Te dongah Israel loh Amori khopuei rhoek boeih ah khaw, Heshbon neh a khobuel boeih ah khaw kho a sak.
26For Heshbon was the city of Sihon the king of the Amorites, who had fought against the former king of Moab, and taken all his land out of his hand, even to the Arnon.
26Amori manghai Sihon kah khopuei Heshbon phoeiah tah lamhma kah Moab manghai te a tloek tih a kut lamkah a khohmuen pum te Arnon duela a loh.
27Therefore those who speak in proverbs say, “Come to Heshbon. Let the city of Sihon be built and established;
27Te dongah aka thuidoek rhoek loh, “Halo uh, Heshbon thoh uh lamtah Sihon khopuei khaw sikim saeh,” tila aka thuidoek rhoek loh a thui uh.
28for a fire has gone out of Heshbon, a flame from the city of Sihon. It has devoured Ar of Moab, The lords of the high places of the Arnon.
28Hmai te Heshbon lamloh puek tih Sihon khorha lamkah hmaisai loh Arnon kah hmuensang boei, Moab Ar te a hlawp.
29Woe to you, Moab! You are undone, people of Chemosh! He has given his sons as fugitives, and his daughters into captivity, to Sihon king of the Amorites.
29Anunae Moab nang aih te, Khemosh pilnam na milh coeng, a capa rhoek! te hlangyong la, a canu rhoek khaw Sihon Amori manghai taengah thongtla la a paek.
30We have shot at them. Heshbon has perished even to Dibon. We have laid waste even to Nophah, Which reaches to Medeba.”
30Amih te n'dong tih Heshbon tah Dibon duela milh, Medeba taengkah Nophah duela m'pong sak uh coeng,” a ti uh.
31Thus Israel lived in the land of the Amorites.
31Te dongah Israel loh Amori khohmuen ah kho a sak.
32Moses sent to spy out Jazer. They took its villages, and drove out the Amorites who were there.
32Te phoeiah Moses loh Jazer ah longyam la a tueih tih a khobuel rhoek te a buem, a huul uh phoeiah Amori te pahoi a vai uh.
33They turned and went up by the way of Bashan. Og the king of Bashan went out against them, he and all his people, to battle at Edrei.
33Te phoeiah mael uh tih Bashan longpuei a paan uh. Te vaengah Bashan manghai Oga tah amih doe hamla amah khaw a pilnam boeih khaw, Edrei caemtloeknah la cet.
34The LORD said to Moses, “Don’t fear him, for I have delivered him into your hand, with all his people, and his land. You shall do to him as you did to Sihon king of the Amorites, who lived at Heshbon.”
34Tedae BOEIPA loh Moses taengah, “Anih te rhih boeh, Na kut dongah anih neh a pilnam boeih khaw, a khohmuen khaw kam paek coeng. Heshbon kah khosa, Amori manghai Sihon taengah na saii bangla anih te saii van,” a ti nah.
35So they struck him, with his sons and all his people, until there were no survivors; and they possessed his land.
35Te dongah a taengah rhaengnaeng khaw a sueng pawt hil amah khaw, a ca rhoek khaw, a pilnam boeih khaw a tloek pa uh tih a khohmuen te a huul uh.
