Sunglatnah 16

1 Te phoeiah Elim lamloh cet uh tih Israel ca rhaengpuei boeih tah Sin khosoek la pawk uh. Elim laklo neh Sinai laklo te Egypt kho lamloh a thoh uh phoeikah a hla bae hnin hlai nga dongah a phauh.

And they went on their way from Elim, and all the children of Israel came into the waste land of Sin, which is between Elim and Sinai, on the fifteenth day of the second month after they went out of the land of Egypt.

2 Te vaengah Israel ca rhaengpuei boeih te khosoek kah Moses taeng neh Aaron taengah nul khaw nul uh.

And all the children of Israel were crying out against Moses and Aaron in the waste land:

3 Israel ca rhoek loh amih rhoi te, “BOEIPA kut ah kaimih duek sak ham n'khueh pawt nim ca? Egypt kho ah maeh am dongah mamih n'ngol uh tih kodam la buh ka caak uh vaengah hlangping boeih he khokha neh duek sak ham maco he khosoek la kaimih nang khuen,” a ti uh.

And the children of Israel said to them, It would have been better for the Lord to have put us to death in the land of Egypt, where we were seated by the flesh-pots and had bread enough for our needs; for you have taken us out to this waste of sand, to put all this people to death through need of food.

4 Te vaengah BOEIPA loh Moses te, “Kai loh nangmih ham vaan lamkah buh kan tlan sak ne. Pilnam te cet saeh lamtah hnin at ka a rhoeh te amah khohnin ah yoep uh saeh. Ka olkhueng dongah a pongpa neh a pongpa pawt khaw amah ka noem dae eh.

Then the Lord said to Moses, See, I will send down bread from heaven for you; and the people will go out every day and get enough for the day's needs; so that I may put them to the test to see if they will keep my laws or not.

5 A rhuk hnin dongla a pha vaengah hang khuen te soepsoei uh saeh. Te vaengah tah a hnin, hnin kah a yoep lakah rhaepnit lo saeh,” a ti nah.

And on the sixth day they are to make ready what they get in, and it will be twice as much as they get on the other days.

6 Te phoeiah Moses neh Aaron loh Israel ca boeih te, “BOEIPA loh nangmih Egypt kho lamkah n'khuen te hlaemhmah vaengah na ming uh bitni.

And Moses and Aaron said to all the children of Israel, This evening it will be clear to you that it is the Lord who has taken you out of the land of Egypt:

7 Mincang ah BOEIPA kah thangpomnah te na hmuh uh bal bitni. BOEIPA soah nangmih kah kohuetnah te amah loh a yaak. Tedae kaimih rhoi taengah na nul la na nul uh te kaimih rhoi tah ulae?” a ti nah.

And in the morning you will see the glory of the Lord; for your angry words against the Lord have come to his ears: and what are we that you are crying out against us?

8 Te phoeiah Moses loh, “BOEIPA loh nangmih he hlaem kah caak ham maeh neh mincang ah buh kodam la m'paek ham vaengah na kohuetnah neh amah taengah na nul te BOEIPA loh a yaak coeng. Te dongah kaimih rhoi he ulae? Nangmih kah kohuetnah te kaimih rhoi taengah pawt tih BOEIPA taengah ni na kohuet uh,” a ti nah.

And Moses said, The Lord will give you meat for your food at evening, and in the morning bread in full measure; for your outcry against the Lord has come to his ears: for what are we? your outcry is not against us but against the Lord.

9 Te phoeiah Moses loh Aaron taengah, “Israel ca rhaengpuei boeih te, 'Nangmih kah kohuetnah te a yaak coeng dongah BOEIPA mikhmuh la na tawn uh laeh,’ ti nah,” a ti nah.

And Moses said to Aaron, Say to all the people of Israel, Come near before the Lord for he has given ear to your outcry.

10 Aaron loh Israel ca rhaengpuei boeih te a voek vaengah khosoek la a mael uh hatah BOEIPA thangpomnah te cingmai khuiah tarha tueng uh.

And while Aaron was talking to the children of Israel, their eyes were turned in the direction of the waste land, and they saw the glory of the Lord shining in the cloud.

11 Te phoeiah BOEIPA loh Moses te a voek tih,

And the Lord said to Moses,

12 Israel ca rhoek kah kohuetnah te ka yaak. Amih te thui pah. 'Hlaem ah maeh na caak uh tih, mincang ah buh na hah uh ni,’ ti nah. Te vaengah kai Yahweh he na Pathen la nan ming uh bitni,” a ti nah.

The outcry of the children of Israel has come to my ears: say to them now, At nightfall you will have meat for your food, and in the morning bread in full measure; and you will see that I am the Lord your God.

13 Hlaem a pha tangloeng vaengah tah tanghuem ha pawk tih rhaehhmuen te a thing. Mincang ah rhaehhmuen kaepvai kah buemtui te a khaan a om pah.

And it came about that in the evening little birds came up and the place was covered with them: and in the morning there was dew all round about the tents.

14 Tedae buemtui kah a khaan a cing nen tah khosoek cirhong ah a kueluek a tham aka yit tarha om tih diklai ah vueltling bangla om.

And when the dew was gone, on the face of the earth was a small round thing, like small drops of ice on the earth.

15 Te vaengah Israel ca rhoek loh a hmuh uh. Te dongah hlang loh a manuca taengah,” Manna la he,” a ti uh. Te te balae ti a ming uh pawt dongah Moses loh amih te, “He kah buh he BOEIPA loh nangmih taengah cakkoi la m'paek coeng.

And when the children of Israel saw it, they said to one another, What is it? for they had no idea what it was. And Moses said to them, It is the bread which the Lord has given you for your food.

16 He ham he BOEIPA loh ol n'uen coeng. Hlang loh amah caak rhoeh ah rhut saeh. Na hinglu tarhing ah hlangmi pakhat ham kosai pakhat van saeh. Hlang he amah dap ah aka om tarhing ah khuen sak uh,” a ti nah.

This is what the Lord has said, Let every man take up as much as he has need of; at the rate of one omer for every person, let every man take as much as is needed for his family.

17 Te te Israel ca rhoek loh a ngai uh van tih baeko baepet lam khaw a rhuh uh.

And the children of Israel did so, and some took more and some less.

18 Kosai dongah a loeng uh tih baepet hoei pawt tih baeko lam khaw vaitah pawh. Hlang loh amah caak rhoeh ah a coi uh.

And when it was measured, he who had taken up much had nothing over, and he who had little had enough; every man had taken what he was able to make use of.

19 Te phoeiah Moses loh amih te, “Hlang khat long khaw te te mincang hil la paih boel saeh,” a ti nah.

And Moses said to them, Let nothing be kept till the morning.

20 Tedae Moses ol te hnatun uh pawt tih hlang rhoek loh te te mincang hil a paih uh. Te vaengah a rhiit a poem pah tih a rhim dongah amih taengah Moses a thintoek.

But they gave no attention to Moses, and some of them kept it till the morning and there were worms in it and it had an evil smell: and Moses was angry with them.

21 Te phoeiah tah mincang, mincang bueng ah te te a rhuh uh. Hlang takuem loh amah caak rhoeh ah a rhuh dae khomik a bae vaengah a yut pah.

And they took it up morning by morning, every man as he had need: and when the sun was high it was gone.

22 Hnin rhuk a lo vaengah tah buh te hlang pakhat ham kosai panit a rhaep la a rhuh uh. Te dongah rhaengpuei khoboei boeih tah cet uh tih Moses taengah puen uh.

And on the sixth day they took up twice as much of the bread, two omers for every person: and all the rulers of the people gave Moses word of it.

23 Te vaengah amih te, “He he BOEIPA loh a thui coeng. Thangvuen tah BOEIPA ham koiyaeh Sabbath cim la om. Te dongah hai koi te hai uh lamtah thong koi te thong uh. A coih boeih te namamih ham rhoe uh lamtah mincang hil tuemkoi la om saeh,” a ti nah.

And he said, This is what the Lord has said, Tomorrow is a day of rest, a holy Sabbath to the Lord: what has to be cooked may be cooked; and what is over, put on one side to be kept till the morning.

24 Moses loh a uen bangla mincang hil a rhoe uh tangloeng vaengah rhim pawt tih a khuiah a rhit khaw om pawh.

And they kept it till the morning as Moses had said: and no smell came from it, and it had no worms.

25 Te phoeiah Moses loh, “Tihnin ah te te ca uh, Sabbath he BOEIPA kah khohnin ni. Tihnin ah ngawn tah diklai ah te te na hmu uh mahpawh.

And Moses said, Make your meal today of what you have, for this day is a Sabbath to the Lord: today you will not get any in the fields.

26 Hnin rhuk khuiah ni te te na rhuh uh eh. Tedae a rhih hnin tah Sabbath coeng tih te vaengah om mahpawh,” a ti nah.

For six days you will get it, but on the seventh day, the Sabbath, there will not be any.

27 Te dongah a rhih hnin a pha vaengah rhuh hamla pilnam te mop uh dae hmu uh pawh.

But still on the seventh day some of the people went out to get it, and there was not any.

28 Te vaengah BOEIPA loh Moses te, “Ka olpaek neh ka olkhueng tuem ham he me hil nim na aal ve?

And the Lord said to Moses, How long will you go against my orders and my laws?

29 BOEIPA loh nangmih taengah Sabbath m'paek te hmu uh. Te dongah a rhuk hnin ah nangmih te hnin hnih caak te m'paek. A rhih hnin ah tah hlang he amah hmuen ah khosa saeh lamtah hlang pakhat khaw amah hmuen lamloh cet boel saeh,” a ti nah.

See, because the Lord has given you the Sabbath, he gives you on the sixth day bread enough for two days; let every man keep where he is; let no man go out of his place on the seventh day.

30 Te dongah pilnam khaw a rhih hnin ah duem van.

So the people took their rest on the seventh day.

31 Te kah ming te Israel imkhui loh manna la a khue. Te te sungsin tii bangla bok tih a tuihlim tah khoitui buhrhawm bangla om.

And this bread was named manna by Israel: it was white, like a grain seed, and its taste was like cakes made with honey.

32 Te phoeiah Moses loh, “He ol he BOEIPA long ni n'uen. Te te kosai a bae la na cadilcahma ham tuemkoi la om saeh. Te daengah ni Egypt kho lamloh nangmih kang khuen vaengkah khosoek ah nangmih buh kan cah te a hmu uh eh,” a ti.

And Moses said, This is the order which the Lord has given: Let one omer of it be kept for future generations, so that they may see the bread which I gave you for your food in the waste land, when I took you out from the land of Egypt.

33 Te phoeiah Moses loh Aaron te, “Am pakhat lo lamtah manna kosai a bae la pahoi sang. Te te na cadilcahma duela tuemkoi la BOEIPA mikhmuh ah tawn pah,” a ti nah.

And Moses said to Aaron, Take a pot and put one omer of manna in it, and put it away before the Lord, to be kept for future generations.

34 BOEIPA loh Moses taengah a uen bangla tuemkoi ham Aaron te laipainah hmai ah a khueh.

So Aaron put it away in front of the holy chest to be kept, as the Lord gave orders to Moses.

35 Khosak nah khohmuen la a pawk uh hil kum sawmli khuiah Israel ca rhoek manna te a caak uh. Kanaan khohmuen a bawtnah la a pawk uh hil manna te a caak uh.

And the children of Israel had manna for their food for forty years, till they came to a land with people in it, till they came to the edge of the land of Canaan.

36 Kosai parha te cangnoek khat lo ni.

Now an omer is the tenth part of an ephah.
