Suencuek 45

And Joseph could not control himself before all them that stood by him, and he cried, Put every man out from me! And no man stood with him when Joseph made himself known to his brethren.
2 Te vaengah rhahnah neh a ol a huel. Te dongah Egypt rhoek loh a yaak uh tih Pharaoh im long khaw a yaak.
And he raised his voice in weeping; and the Egyptians heard, and the house of Pharaoh heard.
3 Te vaengah Joseph loh a manuca rhoek la, “Kai he Joseph ni. A pa hing pueng a?,” a ti nah. Tedae anih hmuh ah a manuca rhoek te let uh tih doo uh thai pawh.
And Joseph said to his brethren, I am Joseph. Does my father yet live? And his brethren could not answer him, for they were troubled at his presence.
4 Te vaengah Joseph loh a manuca rhoek la, “Kai taengla bet ha thoeih uh lah,” a ti nah tih a thoeih uh hatah, “Kai Joseph he na manuca ni. Kai he Egypt la nan yoih uh.
And Joseph said to his brethren, Come near to me, I pray you. And they came near. And he said, I am Joseph your brother, whom ye sold into Egypt.
5 Tedae hinglu hlawtnah ham Pathen loh nangmih hmai ah kai n'tueih coeng dongah kai nan yoih uh te namamih kah mik dongah na ngaihlih sak uh boel lamtah sai boeh.
And now, be not grieved, and be not angry with yourselves, that ye sold me hither, for God sent me before you to preserve life.
6 Tahae lamkah khokha kum loh kho khui ah om vetih kum nga ngawn tah lotawn cangah mueh la om pueng ni.
For the famine has been these two years in the land; and yet there are five years in which there will be neither ploughing nor harvest.
7 Tedae diklai ah a meet la nangmih te n'hoep phoeiah loeihnah tanglue neh nangmih te hing sak ham ni nangmih hmai ah Pathen loh kai n'tueih.
So God sent me before you to preserve you a remnant in the earth, and to save you alive by a great deliverance.
8 Te dongah nangmih loh hela kai nan tueih uh moenih. Tedae Pathen loh kai he Pharaoh napa lam khaw, amah im pum kah boei lam khaw, Egypt kho tom aka taemrhai ham khaw, n'khueh.
And now it was not you [that] sent me here, but God; and he has made me a father to Pharaoh, and lord of all his house, and governor over all the land of Egypt.
9 A pa taengah a loe la cet uh lamtah, 'Na capa Joseph te Pathen loh Egypt pum kah boei la a khueh coeng,'. Uelh mueh la kai taengah na suntla uh tih,
Haste and go up to my father, and say to him, Thus says thy son Joseph: God has made me lord of all Egypt; come down to me, tarry not.
10 kamah neh a yoei la om ham Goshen kho ah a pa namah khaw, na ca rhoek khaw, na ca rhoek kah a ca rhoek patoeng khaw, na boiva khaw, na saelhung neh na taengkah aka om boeih te khaw kho na sak uh bitni.
And thou shalt dwell in the land of Goshen, and thou shalt be near to me, thou, and thy sons, and thy sons' sons, and thy sheep, and thy cattle, and all that thou hast.
11 Khokha he kum nga a om pueng dongah nangmih te kan cangbam bitni. Namah khaw, na im khaw na taengkah aka om boeih khaw tal ve,’ a ti,’ ti nah.
And there will I maintain thee; for yet there are five years of famine; in order that thou be not impoverished, thou, and thy household, and all that thou hast.
12 Tahae ah kamah ka neh nangmih taengah ka thui he nangmih mik neh ka mana Benjamin mik loh rhep a hmuh he.
And behold, your eyes see, and the eyes of my brother Benjamin, that it is my mouth which speaks to you.
13 Egypt ah kai, thangpomnah cungkuem neh nan hmuh uh boeih te a pa taengah puen uh lamtah a pa te pahoi tlek han khuen uh,” a ti nah.
And tell my father of all my glory in Egypt, and of all that ye have seen, and haste and bring down my father hither.
14 Te phoeiah a mana Benjamin te a rhawn ah a kop tih rhap. Benjamin long khaw a rhawn ah a kop tih rhap van.
And he fell on his brother Benjamin's neck, and wept; and Benjamin wept on his neck.
15 A manuca rhoek te rhip a mok tih a rhah thil. Te phoei daengah a manuca rhoek loh anih taengah cal uh.
And he kissed all his brethren, and wept upon them; and after that his brethren talked with him.
16 Tedae Joseph kah a manuca rhoek halo uh a ti te Pharaoh im loh olthang a yaak vaengah Pharaoh mik ah khaw, a sal rhoek mik ah khaw cop.
And the report was heard in Pharaoh's house, saying, Joseph's brethren are come. And it was good in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of his bondmen.
17 Te dongah Pharaoh loh Joseph taengah, “He tlam he saii mai. Na manuca rhoek la, 'Na rhamsa neh sawn uh lamtah Kanaan kho la bal uh ngawn.
And Pharaoh said to Joseph, Say to thy brethren, Do this: load your beasts and depart, go into the land of Canaan,
18 Na pa te khaw, na imkhui khaw, lo uh lamtah kai taengla han khuen uh. Nangmih te Egypt khohmuen kah a thennah kam paek vetih lai men te na caak uh bitni.
and take your father and your households, and come to me; and I will give you the good of the land of Egypt, and ye shall eat the fat of the land.
19 Te phoeiah namah loh uen lamtah saii. Na ca rhoek ham khaw, na yuu rhoek ham khaw, na pa te khaw lo uh. Te phoeiah na bal uh vaengkah ham leng te Egypt kho lamloh namah neh puei uh.
And thou art commanded — this do: take waggons out of the land of Egypt for your little ones and for your wives, and take up your father, and come.
20 Egypt khohmuen kah a thennah boeih he nangmih ham coeng dongah na hnopai khaw na mik dongah rhen boeh,’ ti nah,” a ti nah.
And let not your eye regret your stuff; for the good of all the land of Egypt shall be yours.
21 Te dongah Isreal ca rhoek loh a saii uh tih Pharaoh kah olpaek vanbangla amih te Joseph loh leng a paek. Te phoeiah amih te longpueng ham lampu khaw a paek.
And the sons of Israel did so; and Joseph gave them waggons, according to the commandment of Pharaoh, and gave them provision for the way.
22 Amih ham thovaelnah himbai te khat khat rhip a paek tih Benjamin te tah tangka ya thum neh himbai thovaelnah ham yung nga a paek.
To each one of them all he gave changes of clothing; but to Benjamin he gave three hundred [pieces] of silver and five changes of clothing.
23 A napa ham khaw Egypt kah a thennah aka phuei laak pumrha, cang, caak neh a napa ham longpueng kah lampu aka phuei laaknu pumrha te a pat pah.
And to his father he sent this: ten asses laden with the good things of Egypt, and ten she-asses laden with corn and bread, and food for his father by the way.
24 Tedae a manuca rhoek te a tueih tih a hlah uh vaengah amih te, “Longpueng ah tlai uh boeh ne,” a ti nah.
And he sent his brethren away, and they departed. And he said to them, Do not quarrel on the way.
25 Te phoeiah Egypt lamkah Kanaan kho la cet uh tih a napa Jakob te a paan uh.
And they went up out of Egypt, and came into the land of Canaan to Jacob their father.
26 Te phoeiah Jakob taengah, “Joseph hing pueng tih anih loh Egypt kho boeih a taem a rhai,” tila a puen pauh. Tedae a lungbuei a lungmit coeng tih amih te tangnah pawh.
And they told him, saying, Joseph is still alive, and he is governor over all the land of Egypt. And his heart fainted, for he did not believe them.
27 Tedae Joseph loh amih taengah a thui olka boeih te Jakob taengah a thui pa uh tih amah aka phuei ham Joseph kah a pat leng te a hmuh vaengah a napa Jakob kah a mueihla koep hing.
And they spoke to him all the words of Joseph, which he had spoken to them. And he saw the waggons that Joseph had sent to carry him. And the spirit of Jacob their father revived.
28 Te daengah Israel loh, “Rhoek saeh, ka ca Joseph a hing pueng te ka duek hlanah ka cet vetih a muei ka hmu dae ni,” a ti.
And Israel said, It is enough: Joseph my son is yet alive; I will go and see him before I die.
