Lampahnah 17
1 BOEIPA loh Moses tea voek tih,
And Yhwh spake unto Moses, saying,
2 “Israel carhoek te thui pah lamtah amih taeng lamkah congholte lo. Conghol te a napa imkhui tarhing la a khoboei boeih taeng lamkah khaw lo saeh. A naparhoek imkhui tarhing kah congholte hlai nit lo ni. Te vaengah hlangte a ming neh a conghol dongah daek pah.
Speak unto the children of Israel, and take of every one of them a rod according to the house of their fathers, of all their princes according to the house of their fathers twelve rods: write thou every man’s name upon his rod.
3 Aaron ming te Levi conghol soah daek lamtah a naparhoek imsawn kah a lu pakhat ham conghol pakhat van saeh.
And thou shalt write Aaron’s name upon the rod of Levi: for one rod shall be for the head of the house of their fathers.
4 Te rhoek te tingtunnah dap khuikah olphong hmai ah khueh pah. Terhoek ah ni nangmih ham kan tuentah coeng.
And thou shalt lay them up in the tabernacle of the congregation before the testimony, where I will meet with you.
5 Te vaengah ka coelh hlang te ana om vetih anih te a conghol duei ni. Te vaengah nangmih rhoi taengah aka nul, amih Israel ca rhoek kah kohuetnah te kamah taeng lamloh ka hnop ni,” a ti nah.
And it shall come to pass, that the man’s rod, whom I shall choose, shall blossom: and I will make to cease from me the murmurings of the children of Israel, whereby they murmur against you.
6 Te dongah Moses loh Israel carhoek tea thui pah tih amih kah khoboei boeih loh khoboei pakhat ham conghol pakhat, khoboei pakhat ham van te conghol pakhat van te a taenglaa paek uh. A napa rhoek kah imsawn tarhingah conghol hlai nit lo tih Aaron kah conghol khaw amih kah conghol lakli ah om.
And Moses spake unto the children of Israel, and every one of their princes gave him a rod apiece, for each prince one, according to their fathers’ houses, even twelve rods: and the rod of Aaron was among their rods.
7 Moses loh conghol te olphong dap kah BOEIPA mikhmuh aha hang.
And Moses laid up the rods before Yhwh in the tabernacle of witness.
8 A vuen ah Moseste olphong dap khuilaa kun vaengah Levi imkhui kah Aaron conghol tah tarha aka duei pah. Rhaiphuelh khaw phuelh. Te phoeiah tamlaep bangla a khooi pah tih noe bangla a thaih pah.
And it came to pass, that on the morrow Moses went into the tabernacle of witness; and, behold, the rod of Aaron for the house of Levi was budded, and brought forth buds, and bloomed blossoms, and yielded almonds.
9 Moses loh conghol boeih te BOEIPA mikhmuh lamloh Israel ca boeih taenglaa khuen tiha sawt uh phoeiah hlang boeih a conghol te a loh uh.
And Moses brought out all the rods from before Yhwh unto all the children of Israel: and they looked, and took every man his rod.
10 Te phoeiah BOEIPA loh Moses te, “Boekoek kocarhoek taengah miknoek la tuemkoi ham Aaron kah conghol te olphong hmai ah khueh laeh. Te daengah nih amih kah kohuetnahte ka mikhmuh lamloh paa vetiha duek uh pawt eh?,” a ti nah.
And Yhwh said unto Moses, Bring Aaron’s rod again before the testimony, to be kept for a token against the rebels; and thou shalt quite take away their murmurings from me, that they die not.
11 BOEIPA loh amaha uen bangla Mosesloh a ngai tih a saii van.
And Moses did so: as Yhwh commanded him, so did he.
12 Israel ca rhoek loh Moses tea voekuh tih, “M'pal uh ni he, mamih boeih m'milh uh coeng, m'milh uh coeng.
And the children of Israel spake unto Moses, saying, Behold, we die, we perish, we all perish.
13 BOEIPA kah dungtlungim te aka paan la aka paan boeih tah duek ni. Pal hamla khum uh mai sih a eya?” a ti uh.
Whosoever cometh any thing near unto the tabernacle of Yhwh shall die: shall we be consumed with dying?
