1 Hijeh chun Pakaiyin Mose heng'a aseiyin, “Hiche hi phatechan ngaiyin. Pharaoh lengpa koma Pathen tobang'a kasem ding nahiye, chule na sopipa, Aaron, hi nang dia themgaova pang ding ahi.
Yahweh said to Moses, “See, I have made you like a god to Pharaoh. Aaron your brother will be your prophet.
2 Kathupeh jouse hi Aaron jah'a sei in lang, Aaron in Pharaoh heng'a Israel mite agamsung'a kon'a asol doh nading'a thu apeh tei ding ahi.
You will say everything that I command you to say. Aaron your brother will speak to Pharaoh so that he will let the people of Israel go from his land.
3 Ahinlah Keiman Pharaoh lungthim ka suhtah ding, chuteng melchihna le thil kidang tampi Egypt gamsung'a kapunsah ding ahi.
But I will harden Pharaoh's heart, and I will display many signs of my power, many wonders, in the land of Egypt.
4 Hiche a jong chu Pharaoh in na thu angai lou lai ding ahi. Keiman Egypt gamsung'a ka khut kahin lhanjah ding. Keiman ka thaneina kon - kamite, Israelte - Egypt gam'a kon thutanna gimnei tah pum'a ka huh doh ding ahiuve.
But Pharaoh will not listen to you, so I will put my hand on Egypt and bring out my groups of fighting men, my people, the descendants of Israel, out of the land of Egypt by great acts of punishment.
5 Keiman ka khut ban thahat ka hinlhan'a Israelte kahin puidoh teng, Egypt miten Keima hi Pakai kahi ahin hetdoh diu ahitai.”
The Egyptians will know that I am Yahweh when I reach out with my hand on Egypt and bring out the Israelites from among them.”
6 Chuin Pakai thupeh bang'in Mose leh Aaron injong abol lhon tan, ahi.
Moses and Aaron did so; they did just as Yahweh commanded them.
7 Pharaoh heng'a ngehna aganei lai lhon chun, Mose kum somget ahitan, chule Aaron chu kum som get leh kum thum ahitai.
Moses was eighty years old, and Aaron eighty-three years old when they spoke to Pharaoh.
8 Chuin Pakaiyin Mose leh Aaron heng'ah thu aseiyin,
Yahweh said to Moses and to Aaron,
9 “Pharaoh in ngehna ahin nei ding, ‘thil kidang neivetsah lhonin.' hitobang ahin seiteng, Aaron henga seiyin ‘nateng gol chu la in lang Pharaoh masang laiya chun sep lhan, chuteng gul hung kisoh ding ahi.”
“When Pharaoh says to you, 'Do a miracle,' then you will say to Aaron, 'Take your staff and throw it down before Pharaoh, so that it may become a snake.'”
10 Chuin Mose leh Aaron jong Pharaoh heng'a achelhon in Pakai thupeh bang'in abol lhon tai. Aaron in tenggol chu Pharaoh le avaipipo teho angsung'a chun asep lhan ahile, gul ahung kisoh tai!
Then Moses and Aaron went to Pharaoh, and they did just as Yahweh had commanded. Aaron threw down his staff before Pharaoh and his servants, and it became a snake.
11 Hichun Pharaoh in ama miching ho le doithem ho a koukhom in, Egypt gamma mitphel doithem hon jong chuche tobang chu athemguh un abol'un ahi.
Then Pharaoh also called for his wise men and sorcerers. They did the same thing by their magic.
12 Atenggol'u tol'a a seplha cheh uvin ahile, amahoa jong gul aki sohtai! Ahinlah Aaron tenggol chun amaho tenggolho chu aval lhum soh tai.
Each man threw down his staff, and the staffs became snakes. But Aaron's staff swallowed up their snakes.
13 Hicheng nung jeng hin jong Pakaiyin asei masat bang chun Pharaoh lungthim chu atah jing nalaiyin, thu ima ngaisah in anei hih laiye.
Pharaoh's heart was hardened, and he did not listen, just as Yahweh had foretold.
14 Chuin Pakaiyin Mose heng'a aseiyin, “Pharaoh lungchang atah in, chule aman mipiho soldoh ding anom naipoi.
Yahweh said to Moses, “Pharaoh's heart is hard, and he refuses to let the people go.
15 Hijeh chun jingkah teng Pharaoh vadung lam'a hung suh teng nangma na che ding. Nile vadung pam'a nadin ding, hikoma chu nakimupi ding ahi. Na tenggol gul kisoh chu kichoi teiyin.
Go to Pharaoh in the morning when he goes out to the water. Stand on the riverbank to meet him, and take in your hand the staff that had turned into a snake.
16 Chuteng akoma hiti hin seiyin, 'Pakai, Hebrew mite Pathen in nakoma thuseiya eihin sol ahi: “Kamite soldoh tan, chuteng amahon gamthip noiya keima eihou na ding uvin.” Tugeiyin, nangman ama thusei iman na ngaisah poi.
Say to him, 'Yahweh, the God of the Hebrews, has sent me to you to say, “Let my people go, so that they may worship me in the wilderness. Until now you have not listened.”
17 Hijeh a chu hiche hi Pakaiyin asei ahi: “Keima Pakai kahina ka kilah sah ding ahi.” Vetan! Ka khut'a um tenngol hi mang cha'a Nile twi kajep ding, chu teng vadung hi thisan kisoh ding ahi.
Yahweh says this: “By this you will know that I am Yahweh. I am going to strike the water of the Nile River with the staff that is in my hand, and the river will be turned to blood.
18 Asung'a Nga jouse thi ding, chule vadung uilhahel ding, Egypt miten Nile vadung'a kon twi adon thei lou hel diu ahitai,” ati.
The fish that are in the river will die, and the river will stink. The Egyptians will not be able to drink water from the river.”'”
19 Chu jongle Pakaiyin Mose heng ah aseiyin: “Aaron jah a seiyin, 'Na tenggol kimat in lang Egypt gam'a twi jouse chunga na khut jah in lang - vadung jouse, twinah jouse, luikhuh jouse chunga. Twi jouse thisan so sah tan. Egypt gam muntin'a twi jouse, thingtwikong le songkong jouse sunga twi jouse geiya thisan soh ding ahi.'”
Then Yahweh said to Moses, “Say to Aaron, 'Take your staff and reach out with your hand over the waters of Egypt, and over their rivers, streams, pools, and all their ponds, so that their water may become blood. Do this so that there will be blood throughout all the land of Egypt, even in containers of wood and stone.'”
20 Chuin Mose leh Aaron in jong Pakai thupeh bang'in abol lhon tan ahi. Pharaoh le athunei vaihomte hon avet laiyun, Aaron in jong a tenggol ajahdoh'in Nile luidung chu ajep jeng tan ahi. Phulou helouvin, Vadung twi apumpin thisan akisoh hel tan ahi.
Moses and Aaron did as Yahweh commanded. Aaron raised the staff and struck the water in the river, in the sight of Pharaoh and his servants. All the water in the river turned to blood.
21 Luidunga nga jouse athisoh heltan, chule twi anen behseh phat chun Egypt miten adon thei tapouvin ahi. Egypt gamsung pumpi mun jouse thisan dim ahitai.
The fish in the river died, and the river began to stink. The Egyptians could not drink water from the river, and the blood was everywhere in the land of Egypt.
22 Ahivang'in Egypt gam'a mitphel doithem hon jong adoiyu mangchan amahon jong twi thisan asosah uvin ahi. Hijeh chun Pharaoh lungthim chu atah jing nalaiye. Pakaiyin asei bang in Mose leh Aaron thusei chu nahsah in anei hih laiye.
But the magicians of Egypt did the same thing with their magic. So Pharaoh's heart was hardened, and he refused to listen to Moses and Aaron, just as Yahweh had said would happen.
23 Pharaoh jong a leng inpi lam'ah akilen, hicheng thilsoh jouse ho chu alungthim'a gel lut kham asa hih laiye.
Then Pharaoh turned and went into his house. He did not even pay attention to this.
24 Ahin Egypt mite jousen luipang dung alai thuh'un twi akihol le tauvin ahi, ajeh chu amahon Nile luidunga twi chu a donthei tah louvu ahi.
All the Egyptians dug around the river for water to drink, but they could not drink the water of the river itself.
25 Pakaiyin Nile luidung ajep kal nisagi alhing tan ahi.
Seven days passed after Yahweh had attacked the river.
