Suencuek 45
1 Joseph long khaw amah taengkah aka pai boeih taengah thiim uh ham a coeng voelpawt vaengah, “Hlang boeih loh kai taeng lamkah nong uh,” tila pang. Te dongah a taengkah hlang tloe aka pai te a om pawt vaengah Joseph loh a manuca rhoek taengah amah kawng te a phoe.
And Joseph hath not been able to refrain himself before all those standing by him, and he calleth, 'Put out every man from me;' and no man hath stood with him when Joseph maketh himself known unto 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 giveth forth his voice in weeping, and the Egyptians hear, and the house of Pharaoh heareth.
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 saith unto his brethren, 'I [am] Joseph, is my father yet alive?' and his brethren have not been able to answer him, for they have been 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 saith unto his brethren, 'Come nigh unto me, I pray you,' and they come nigh; and he saith, '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, nor let it be displeasing in your eyes that ye sold me hither, for to preserve life hath God sent me before you.
6 Tahae lamkah khokha kum loh kho khui ah om vetih kum nga ngawn tah lotawn cangah mueh la om pueng ni.
'Because these two years the famine [is] in the heart of the land, and yet [are] five years, [in] which there is 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.
and God sendeth me before you, to place of you a remnant in the land, and to give life to you by a great escape;
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, ye — ye have not sent me hither, but God, and He doth set me for a father to Pharaoh, and for lord to all his house, and ruler 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 unto my father, then ye have said to him, Thus said Joseph thy son, God hath set me for lord to all Egypt; come down unto me, stay 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 hast dwelt in the land of Goshen, and been near unto me, thou and thy sons, and thy son's sons, and thy flock, and thy herd, 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 I have nourished thee there — for yet [are] five years of famine — lest thou become poor, 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 lo, your eyes are seeing, and the eyes of my brother Benjamin, that [it is] my mouth which is speaking unto 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 ye have declared to my father all my honour in Egypt, and all that ye have seen, and ye have hasted, and have brought 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 falleth on the neck of Benjamin his brother, and weepeth, and Benjamin hath 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 kisseth all his brethren, and weepeth over them; and afterwards have his brethren spoken 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 sound hath been heard in the house of Pharaoh, saying, 'Come have the brethren of Joseph;' and it is good in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of his servants,
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 saith unto Joseph, 'Say unto thy brethren, This do ye: lade your beasts, and go, enter ye 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 unto me, and I give to you the good of the land of Egypt, and eat ye 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.
'Yea, thou — thou hast been commanded: this do ye, take for yourselves out of the land of Egypt, waggons for your infants, and for your wives, and ye have brought 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 your eye hath no pity on your vessels, for the good of all the land of Egypt [is] 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 do so, and Joseph giveth waggons to them by the command of Pharaoh, and he giveth to 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 all of them hath he given — to each changes of garments, and to Benjamin he hath given three hundred silverlings, and five changes of garments;
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 hath sent thus: ten asses bearing of the good things of Egypt, and ten she-asses bearing corn and bread, even food for his father for 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 sendeth his brethren away, and they go; and he saith unto them, 'Be not angry in the way.'
25 Te phoeiah Egypt lamkah Kanaan kho la cet uh tih a napa Jakob te a paan uh.
And they go up out of Egypt, and come in to the land of Canaan, unto 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 declare to him, saying, 'Joseph [is] yet alive,' and that he [is] ruler over all the land of Egypt; and his heart ceaseth, for he hath not given credence to 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 speak unto him all the words of Joseph, which he hath spoken unto them, and he seeth the waggons which Joseph hath sent to bear him away, and live doth the spirit of Jacob their father;
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 saith, 'Enough! Joseph my son [is] yet alive; I go and see him before I die.'
