¹Huan, I kihei ua, TOUPA'N I kiang ua a gen bang in Tuipi San lam ah gamdai ah I lut ta ua; Seir tang sawtpi I vel ua.

¹Then we turned, and took our journey into the wilderness by the way to the Red Sea or, Sea of Reeds , as Yahweh spoke to me; and we encircled Mount Seir many days.

²Huan, TOUPA'N a hon houpih a,

²Yahweh spoke to me, saying,

³Hiai tang na vel sawt hun ta uh; mal lam zuan in kihei un.

³“You have encircled this mountain long enough. Turn northward.

⁴Mipite, Seir tang a om, Esau suan na unaute uh gamah na paisuak sin uhi; amau a hon na kihta ding ua; huaiziak in pilvang mahmah unla:

⁴Command the people, saying, ‘You are to pass through the border of your brothers the children of Esau, who dwell in Seir; and they will be afraid of you: take good heed to yourselves therefore;

⁵Kisual pih kei un; a gam uh, a koilai mahmah leng, khepek a sik khop lel leng nou ka hon pe dek het kei ahi; Seir tang zaw a tuam ding in Esau ka pe khin ta hi.

⁵don’t contend with them; for I will not give you of their land, no, not so much as for the sole of the foot to tread on; because I have given Mount Seir to Esau for a possession.

⁶A ann uh sum in na lei ding ua na nek ding un, huan na dawn ding un a tuite uh leng sum in na lei ding uhi.

⁶You shall purchase food of them for money, that you may eat; and you shall also buy water of them for money, that you may drink.’”

⁷TOUPA na Pathian un na khut nasep peuhmah uah a hon vualzawl zel a, hiai gamdai zapi na totsuakdante khawng uh leng a thei hi; hiai kum sawmli sung teng in TOUPA na kiang uah a om a, bangmah na tasam kei uhi, chi in thupia in, chi in.

⁷For Yahweh your God has blessed you in all the work of your hand; he has known your walking through this great wilderness: these forty years Yahweh your God has been with you; you have lacked nothing.

⁸Huchi in Elat leh Eziongeber a kipan in Arba lamp a pai in Seir tang a om Esau suan i unaute gam i tawn paisuak uh. Huan, i kihei ua, Moab gamdai lam ah i pai ua.

⁸So we passed by from our brothers the children of Esau, who dwell in Seir, from the way of the Arabah from Elath and from Ezion Geber. We turned and passed by the way of the wilderness of Moab.

⁹Huan, TOUPA'N ka kiang ah, Moabte hihbuai kei unla, gal sual in sual kei un; a gam uh na tuam ding un ka hon pe sin kei hi, Lot suante tuam ding in Ar ka pe khinta hi.

⁹Yahweh said to me, “Don’t bother Moab, neither contend with them in battle; for I will not give you of his land for a possession; because I have given Ar to the children of Lot for a possession.”

¹⁰Tu malam in Anakte bang a milian leh tam leh mi sang pipi Emte a om ua:

¹⁰(The Emim lived therein before, a people great, and many, and tall, as the Anakim:

¹¹Huaite leng Anakte bang mah a Ephate chih ahi uh; himahleh Maobte'n jo Emte a chi nak uhi.

¹¹these also are accounted Rephaim, as the Anakim; but the Moabites call them Emim.

¹²Tuma lam in Seir tang ah Horte bang leng a om ua; himahleh Esau suante'n a luahsak uhi; a that ua, a mun uah a omta ua. Israelte'n TOUPA'N amau tuam dia a piak gam chih bang mah un.

¹²The Horites also lived in Seir before, but the children of Esau succeeded them; and they destroyed them from before them, and lived in their place; as Israel did to the land of his possession, which Yahweh gave to them.)

¹³Huchi in thou unla, Zered lui kan dih ua, a chi a. Huchi in Zered lui i kan ta ua.

¹³“Now rise up, and cross over the brook Zered.” We went over the brook Zered.

¹⁴Kadesbarnea a kipan I pawt leh Zered lui i kan ua, TOUPA'N a kiang ua a kichiam bang a mipi lak a huai mi suan a galkap thei mi tengteng a bei vek kikal uh kum sawmthum leh kum giat ahi.

¹⁴The days in which we came from Kadesh Barnea, until we had come over the brook Zered, were thirty-eight years; until all the generation of the men of war were consumed from the midst of the camp, as Yahweh swore to them.

¹⁵Mipite lak a kipan a bei sisip ma uh amaute hihmang bei ding in TOUPA khut a tunguah a tu hi.

¹⁵Moreover the hand of Yahweh was against them, to destroy them from the midst of the camp, until they were consumed.

¹⁶Huchi ahi a, huchi bang a mipi lak a kipan galkap thei tengteng a bei ua, a hong sih khit nung un,

¹⁶So it happened, when all the men of war were consumed and dead from among the people,

¹⁷TOUPA'N a hon houpih a,

¹⁷that Yahweh spoke to me, saying,

¹⁸Tuni in Moab gam, huai Ar na khen paisuak ding ahi:

¹⁸“You are this day to pass over Ar, the border of Moab:

¹⁹Huan, Amon suante kiang chin na va tun chiang in leng hihbuai kenla, kisual pih kei in; Amonte gam na tuam ding in ka hon pe sin kei hi, Lota suante tuam ding in ka pekhin hi.

¹⁹and when you come near over against the children of Ammon, don’t bother them, nor contend with them; for I will not give you of the land of the children of Ammon for a possession; because I have given it to the children of Lot for a possession.”

²⁰(Huai leng Rephate gam bang a sim ahi sam; huai ah tuma lam in Rephate a om uh; himahleh Amonte'n zaw Zemzumte a chi ua;

²⁰(That also is accounted a land of Rephaim: Rephaim lived therein before; but the Ammonites call them Zamzummim,

²¹Anakte bang a mi lian leh tam leh mi sang pipi ahi ua; himahleh TOUPA'N a hihman sak a, amau a luah leuleu ua, a muh uah a om ta uhi:

²¹a people great, and many, and tall, as the Anakim; but Yahweh destroyed them before them; and they succeeded them, and lived in their place;

²²Seir tang a om Esau suante Horte a hihman sak lai a a hih bang in; huchi in amau a luah ua, a mun uah tu dong in a om lai uhi:

²²as he did for the children of Esau, who dwell in Seir, when he destroyed the Horites from before them; and they succeeded them, and lived in their place even to this day:

²³Huan, Gaza tan a kho neu chikchik a om Avite Kaptor a kipan a hong pawt Kaptorte'n a hihmang ua, a mun uah a om uhi. )

²³and the Avvim, who lived in villages as far as Gaza, the Caphtorim, who came forth out of Caphtor, destroyed them, and lived in their place.)

²⁴Thou unla, paikhia unla, Arnon guam kan un; ngai dih ua, Amor mi Hesbon kumpipa Sihon leh a gam ka hon pe khinta hi; luah peuhmah unla, gal sual in sual un.

²⁴“Rise up, take your journey, and pass over the valley of the Arnon: behold, I have given into your hand Sihon the Amorite, king of Heshbon, and his land; begin to possess it, and contend with him in battle.

²⁵Tuni in, van nuai a nam chih tungah nang hon launa uh leh hon kihtakna uh ka om sak pan ding a, na tanchin a za ding ua, a ling ding ua nang ziak in gimthuak in a om ding uh, chi in.

²⁵This day will I begin to put the dread of you and the fear of you on the peoples who are under the whole sky, who shall hear the report of you, and shall tremble, and be in anguish because of you.”

²⁶Huan, Kedemot gamdai a kipan in Hesbon kumpipa Sihon kiang ah lemna thu pua in mi ka sawl a.

²⁶I sent messengers out of the wilderness of Kedemoth to Sihon king of Heshbon with words of peace, saying,

²⁷Na gamah hon paisuak sak dih ve; lamlian zel ah ka pai ding a tak lam ah hiam, vei lam ah hiam leng ka pial kei ding.

²⁷“Let me pass through your land: I will go along by the highway, I will turn neither to the right hand nor to the left.

²⁸Ka nek ding in ann sum in no'n leisak ding a, ka dawn ding in tui leng sum mah in no'n leisak ding hi;

²⁸You shall sell me food for money, that I may eat; and give me water for money, that I may drink: only let me pass through on my feet,

²⁹Jordan ka kan a TOUPA ka Pathian un a hon piak gam ka lut masiah Seira om Esau suante leh Ar a om Moabte hon paisuak sak bang un hon paisuak sak lel dih ve, chi in.

²⁹as the children of Esau who dwell in Seir, and the Moabites who dwell in Ar, did to me; until I shall pass over the Jordan into the land which Yahweh our God gives us.”

³⁰Himahleh Hesbon kumpipa Sihon in a gamah hon paisuak sak nuam kei a; TOUPA na Pathian un na khut ua a hon piak theihna ding in a lungsim a khauhsak a, a paupeng sak ahi, na theihsa uh bang in.

³⁰But Sihon king of Heshbon would not let us pass by him; for Yahweh your God hardened his spirit, and made his heart obstinate, that he might deliver him into your hand, as at this day.

³¹Huan, TOUPA'N ka kiang ah, ngai in, Sihon leh a gam ka hon pe ding a hita, a gam tang ding in luah peuhmah in, a hon chi hi.

³¹Yahweh said to me, “Behold, I have begun to deliver up Sihon and his land before you: begin to possess, that you may inherit his land.”

³²Huchi in Sihon leh a mite tengteng Jahaz a hon sual ding in a hong kuan ua.

³²Then Sihon came out against us, he and all his people, to battle at Jahaz.

³³Huan, TOUPA i Pathian in a hon pia a; huchi in amah leh a tate leh a mite tengteng i that ua.

³³Yahweh our God delivered him up before us; and we struck him, and his sons, and all his people.

³⁴Huan, huai lai in a khua tengteng i la ua, huai khuate a mihing tengteng, numei leh a ta neu chikchikte uh tan in i hihmang vek ua, hawi mahmah i neikei ua:

³⁴We took all his cities at that time, and utterly destroyed every inhabited city, with the women and the little ones; we left none remaining:

³⁵I lak khua a gallak a i lak thil leh gante kia i tuam di'n i la uhi.

³⁵only the livestock we took for a prey to ourselves, with the spoil of the cities which we had taken.

³⁶Arnon guam a om Aroer a kipan leh guam a kho om a kipan a Gilead pha in ei ding in kho sang lua a om het kei mai hi, TOUPA i Pathian in a hon pe vek ahi:Amon suante gam kia na naih kei uhi, Jabok lui khat lam gei tengteng leh tang gam a khuate leh TOUPA i Pathian in a hon khamna peuhmahte toh.

³⁶From Aroer, which is on the edge of the valley of the Arnon, and the city that is in the valley, even to Gilead, there was not a city too high for us; Yahweh our God delivered up all before us:

³⁷Amon suante gam kia na naih kei uhi, Jabok lui khat lam gei tengteng leh tang gam a khuate leh TOUPA i Pathian in a hon khamna peuhmahte toh.

³⁷only to the land of the children of Ammon you didn’t come near; all the side of the river Jabbok, and the cities of the hill country, and wherever Yahweh our God forbade us.
