¹Now Jericho was shut up and was barred, because of the children of Israel: none went out, and none came in.

¹(Jeriko khua Israel suante jiakin a kikhak bibkbeka: kuamah a pawt kei ua, kuamah lah a lut sam kei uh. )

²And Jehovah said to Joshua, See, I have given into thy hand Jericho, and the king thereof, [and] the valiant men.

²Huan, TOUPAN Josua kiangah, Enin, Jeriko leh a kumpipa uh leh mi hat hangsante na khut ah ka honpe khinta.

³And ye shall go round the city, all the men of war, encompassing the city once. Thus shalt thou do six days.

³Huan, galkapmi tengtengin khopi kimvelin khatvei na vavel suak phot ding ua. Huchibanga ni guk na hih ding uh ahi.

⁴And seven priests shall carry before the ark seven blast-trumpets; and on the seventh day ye shall go round the city seven times, and the priests shall blow with the trumpets.

⁴Huan, siampu sagihin bawm malamah belampa ki pengkul sagih a tawi ding ua, huan, a ni sagih niin khopi sagih vein a vel suak ding ua, huan, siamputen pengkul a mut ding uh.

⁵And it shall come to pass when they make a long blast with the blast-horn, that all the people on hearing the sound of the trumpet shall shout with a great shout; and the wall of the city shall fall flat, and the people shall go up, each one straight before him.

⁵Huan, hichi ahi dinga, belampa ki a mut ging na jak u leh, mipi tengteng ngaihtakin kikou juajua uhen; huchiin khopi kulh achim zoi dinga, mipi bel amau ma jawn chiatah a paitou ding ua, a chi a.

⁶And Joshua the son of Nun called the priests, and said to them, Carry the ark of the covenant, and seven priests shall carry seven blast-trumpets before the ark of Jehovah.

⁶Huan, Nun tapa Josuain siampute a sama, akiang uah, Thukhun bawm jawng unla, siampu sagihin TOUPA bawm malamah belampa ki pengkul sagih tawi uhen, a chi a.

⁷And he said to the people, Pass on, go round the city, and they that are armed shall pass on before the ark of Jehovah.

⁷Huan, aman mipite kiangah, Pai jel unla, khopi vel suak un, huan, mi kigalvante TOUPA bawm ma lamah pai jel uhen, a chi a.

⁸And it came to pass when Joshua had spoken to the people, that the seven priests carrying the seven blast-trumpets before Jehovah passed on and blew with the trumpets; and the ark of the covenant of Jehovah went after them.

⁸Huan, huchibang a honghita, Josuain mipite kianga thu a gen khitin TOUPA maa balampa ki pengkul sagih tawi siampu sagihte a pai jel ua, pengkul a mut ua: TOUPA thukhun bawmin a jui hi.

⁹And the armed men went before the priests who blew with the trumpets, and the rearguard came after the ark; they blew with the trumpets in marching.

⁹Huan, mi kigalvante pengkul mut siampute maah a pai ua, huan, nungdalmiten bawm a masuan ua, siamputen pai kawmin pengkul a mut jel uh.

¹⁰And Joshua had commanded the people, saying, Ye shall not shout, nor let your voice be heard, neither shall a word proceed out of your mouth, until the day I say to you, Shout; then shall ye shout.

¹⁰Huan, Josuain mipite, Kikou kei unla, na aw u leng jak hi kei hen, kikou dinga thu ka honpiak ni a tun mateng na kam ua kipanin thu himhim pawt kei hen: huai hun chiangin na kikou ding uhi, chiin thu a pia a.

¹¹And the ark of Jehovah went round the city, encompassing [it] once; and they came into the camp, and lodged in the camp.

¹¹Huchiin TOUPA bawm tuh khopi khatvei velhin a vel suak saka: huan, giahmun ah a pai ua, giahmun ah a giak nawn leuleu uhi.

¹²And Joshua rose early in the morning, and the priests carried the ark of Jehovah.

¹²Huan, Josua jing khangin a thou a, siamputen TOUPA bawm a jawng uh.

¹³And the seven priests carrying the seven blast-trumpets before the ark of Jehovah went on and blew continually with the trumpets; and the armed men went before them, and the rearguard went after the ark of Jehovah; they blew with the trumpets in marching.

¹³Huan, TOUPA bawm maa belampa ki pengkul sagih tawi siampu sagihte a pai jel ua, pengkul a mut ua: huan, mi kigalvante a ma uah a pai ua: huan, nungdalten TOUPA bawm a honmasuan ua, siamputen a pai kawm un pengkul amut jel uhi.

¹⁴And on the second day they went round the city once, and returned into the camp. So they did six days.

¹⁴Huan, a ni nih niin khopikhatvei a vel suak nawn ua, giahmun ah a kik nawn ua: huchibangin ni guk a hih uhi.

¹⁵And it was so that on the seventh day they rose early, about the morning-dawn, and went round the city after the same manner seven times; only on that day they went round the city seven times.

¹⁵Huan, hichi ahia, a ni sagih niin jingkhang, phalvakin a thou ua, a hihdan ngeimah un sagih vei a vel suak ua: huai phetin khopi sagih vei a vel suak uhi.

¹⁶And it came to pass the seventh time, when the priests blew with the trumpets, that Joshua said to the people, Shout; for Jehovah has given you the city.

¹⁶Huan, hichi ahi a, a sagih veinaa siamputen pengkul a honmut uleh Josuain mipite kiangah, kikou un: TOUPAN Khopi a honpe khinta hi.

¹⁷And the city shall be accursed, it and all that is in it, to Jehovah; only Rahab the harlot shall live, she and all that are with her in the house, because she hid the messengers that we sent.

¹⁷Khopi a sunga thil om tengteng nagawn toh TOUPA adia muhdah vek ding ahi; Rahab kijuaknu kia, amah leh in sunga a kianga om tengteng bel I mi sawlte a nasel sim jiakin hawi ding ahi uh.

¹⁸But in any wise keep from the accursed thing, lest ye make [yourselves] accursed in taking of the accursed thing, and make the camp of Israel a curse, and trouble it.

¹⁸Nou jaw huai thil muhdah akipanin kihuikhe hiau un, huchilouin jaw na muhdah sa uh nungin thil muhdah na la kha ding uh, Israelte giahmun thil muhdah dingin na bawl maijen ding ua, mangbatna na tun kha maijen ding uhi.

¹⁹And all the silver, and gold, and vessels of copper and iron, shall be holy to Jehovah; they shall come into the treasury of Jehovah.

¹⁹Dangkasikte, dangkaengte, dal leh sik tuiumbelsuante bel TOUPA tuam ahi vek ahi: Toupa sum ina koih ding ahi ding, a chi a.

²⁰And the people shouted, and they blew with the trumpets. And it came to pass when the people heard the sound of the trumpets, and the people shouted with a great shout, that the wall fell down flat; and the people went up into the city, each one straight before him, and they took the city.

²⁰Huchiin mipite a kikou ua, siamputen pengkul a mut ua: huan, hichi ahi a, mipiten pengkul ging a jak tak un mipite a kikou juajua ua, kulh a chim zoizoia, huchiin mipite amau majawn chiat uah a pai tou ua, khopi ah a lut ua, khopi a lata uhi.

²¹And they utterly destroyed all that was in the city; both man and woman, young and old, and ox, and sheep, and ass, with the edge of the sword.

²¹Huan, khopi sunga mi tengteng-numei pasal, a neu a lian bawngpate, belamte, sabengtungte toh namsauin a hihlum keuhkeuh uhi.

²²And Joshua said to the two men that had spied out the country, Go into the harlot's house and bring out thence the woman, and all that she has, as ye swore unto her.

²²Huan, Josuain huai mi nih gam vaenkhete kiangah, Hua kijuaknu in ah valut unla, a kianga na nakichiamsa bang un huai numei a neih tengteng toh honpi khia un, a chi a.

²³And the young men, the spies, went in and brought out Rahab, and her father, and her mother, and her brethren, and all that she had: all her kindred did they bring out, and they left them outside the camp of Israel.

²³Huan, enkhemi tangvalte a valut ua, Rahab toh, a pa toh a nut oh, a sangampate toh, a neih tengteng toh a honpi khia ua, a tanau unaute tengteng leng a honpi khia ua: Israelte giahmun polamah a omsak uh.

²⁴And they burned the city with fire, and all that was therein; only the silver, and the gold, and the vessels of copper and of iron, they put into the treasury of the house of Jehovah.

²⁴Huan, Khopi pen a sunga thil om tengteng toh meiin a hal vek ua: dangkasikte, dangkaengte, sumeng leh sik tuiumbelsuante kia TOUPA sumin ah a koih uh.

²⁵And Joshua saved alive Rahab the harlot, and her father's household, and all that she had, and she dwelt in the midst of Israel to this day; because she hid the messengers whom Joshua had sent to spy out Jericho.

²⁵Ahihhangin Rahab kijuaknu leh a neih tengteng leh a pa inkuante Josuain a hawi veka; huchiin Israelte lakah tutanin a tel lailai hi; Jeriko khua enkhe dinga Josuain a mi sawlte a nasel sim jiakin.

²⁶And Joshua swore at that time, saying, Cursed be the man before Jehovah who shall rise up and build this city Jericho! In his first-born shall he lay its foundation, and in his youngest son shall he set up its gates.

²⁶Huan, huailaiin Josuain, Hiai Jeriko khopi honlamkhemi peuhmah TOUPA maah hamsethuakin om hen: a ta masa tanin a suangphum a phum dinga, a ta tumpen tanin a kulh kongpite a lam ding, chiin amau a hilh chiatchiat hi.Huchiin TOUPA Josua kiangah a oma; huan, a gam pumpi ah a min a hongthangta hi.

²⁷And Jehovah was with Joshua; and his fame was in all the land.

²⁷Huchiin TOUPA Josua kiangah a oma; huan, a gam pumpi ah a min a hongthangta hi.
