1 Pathen in Abram chu ana houlimpi in “Nagam, na insung mite, na sopiho chule napa sopi ho dalhan keiman gamthah ka musah ding khu jon tan,” ati.
Now the Lord had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and out of thy birthplace, and from thy father's house, unto the land that I will show thee.
2 Keiman nang hi nam lentah kasoding nahiye; chule keiman nangma phatthei kaboh ding chule namin kaki than sah ding chule midangho phatthei chan na nahi ding ahi.
And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing:
3 Chule nangman phathei naboh ho chu phathei chang diu, chule nangman na sapset techu ka sapset ding; chule nangma jeh a leiset chunga phung nam kim phatthei chang ding ahiuve.
And I will bless those that bless thee, and him that curseth thee, will I curse; and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.
4 Hichun Pathen in athu mop dung jui chun Abram chu akichon in, chule Lot in ama aki lhonpi in. Abram chu Haran dalha a akichon doh chun akum kum somsagi le kum nga ana lhing tan ahi.
So Abram departed, as the Lord had spoken unto him, and Lot went with him; and Abram was seventy and five years old at his departure out of Charan.
5 Aji ngaitah Sarai, asopi pa Lot, anei agou, agam jouse toh, agancha jouse, chule Haran a ana um laiya a insungmi ana kisemdoh chengse chu aki puiyin Canaan lam ajon tauve.
And Abram took Sarai his wife, and Lot his brother's son, and all their substance that they had acquired, and the persons that they had obtained in Charan; and they went forth to go into the land of Canaan; and they came into the land of Canaan.
6 Abram in alamjot'na a Shechem chu ahopa in saotah ajot un, hiche achun ngah mun Moreh thingphung kom ah akinga uvin hiche mun chu Canaan mihon ana lodim un ahi.
And Abram passed through the land unto the place of Shechem, unto the plain of Moreh; and the Canaanite was then in the land.
7 Hichun Pathenin Abram chu akimupi'n “Keiman hiche gamhi na chilhahte kapeh ding ahiye,” hichun Abram injong ahenga hung kilah Pakaiya ding in hiche muna chun maicham khat asem in ahi.
And the Lord appeared unto Abram, and said, Unto thy seed will I give this land. And he built there an altar unto the Lord, who had appeared unto him.
8 Phat chomkhat jou chun, Abram in noilam gam ahin jon in kingah na mun ding thinglhang lam'ah asem doh in hichu nilhum lama Bethel khopi, niso lam a Ai khopi, akah achun ponbuh akison in akinga in, hiche mun achun aman Pakaiya dingin maicham khat asem in chule Pakai min in atao tai.
And he removed from there unto the mountain on the east of Beth-el, and pitched his tent, having Beth-el on the west, and 'Ai on the east; and he built there an altar unto the Lord, and called upon the name of the Lord.
9 Hichun Abram chu noilam'a ahung chalbe ben Negev lam jonin ache paiye.
And Abram journeyed farther, still going on toward the south.
10 Hiche lai phat dontah chun Canaan gam sunga nasatah in kel alhan, Abram chu Egypt ma chelou thei ahi tapon, hikom achun Abram chu gampam mi vaitah in ana um'in ahi.
And there arose a famine in the land: and Abram went down into Egypt to sojourn there; for the famine was grievous in the land.
11 Abram chu ahung suh deu vin Egypt gamgi ahung lhun phat chun, Abram in ajinu Sarai jah achun aseiyin, Sarai “Ven nangma hi numei melhoi tah nahin.”
And it came to pass, when he was come near to enter into Egypt, that he said unto Sarai his wife, Behold now, I know that thou art a woman of handsome appearance:
12 Egypt miten namu teng u-leh, amahon hitia asei diu, “Ama hi ajinu ahi, amapa hi that doh'u hitin hiche teng chule ajinu hi eiho ichan thei ding'u ahi ati ding'u ahi.”
And it may come to pass, when the Egyptians shall see thee, that they will say, This is his wife; and they may kill me, but thee they will save alive.
13 Hijeh chun nang chu kei sopinu hi kahi tin kisei in lang hile chun kei dingin phapen intin chule nangma jal'a chu kei jong ei hinghoi ding'u ahi,” ati.
Say then, I pray thee, thou art my sister, that it may go well with me for thy sake, and my soul live because of thee.
14 Thudihtah khat chu ahile Abram chu Egypt ahung lhun chun mipiho chun Sarai chu amelhoi chu amudoh sohtauvin ahi.
And it came to pass, when Abram was come into Egypt, that the Egyptians beheld the woman that she was very fair.
15 Chule Pharaoh lengpa chapaten amudoh phat uvin Pharaoh koma amanu chu aphat sei lheh jeng tauve. Hichun Sarai chu Pharaoh insunga apuilut tauvin ahi.
The princes also of Pharaoh saw her, and commended her to Pharaoh; and the woman was taken into Pharaoh's house.
16 Hichun Sarai jeh chun Pharaoh in Abram chu thil mantam tah apen, kelngoi hon ahin, bong chalte ahin, sangan chal ho ahiuvin; soh pasal hihen soh numei ho hileh, sangongsao ho ahin sangongsao api ho ahiuvin anei doh sah lotai.
And he did well to Abram for her sake; and he received sheep, and oxen, and he-asses, and men-servants, and maid-servants, and she-asses, and camels.
17 Hinlah Pathen in Pharaoh le ainsung mite chu Abram jinu Sarai jeh chu het phahlou thoh hah tah chun abolgim lheh jeng tan ahi.
But the Lord plagued Pharaoh and his house with great plagues because of Sarai, Abram's wife.
18 Hichun Pharaoh in Abram chu nasatah in ahousal in, “Ipi bol'a kingaito nahim,” atin, “I bol la naloinu na jinu ahi chu nei seipeh lou ham?”
And Pharaoh called Abram, and said, What is this thou hast done unto me? Why didst thou not tell me that she is thy wife?
19 Ibola ka sopi nu ahi natia kaji dinga neiki pui sah ham? Hijeh chun ven tunjong hikom a na jinu aum e ki puiyin lang gangtah in chedoh tan,” ati.
Why saidst thou, She is my sister? and so I took her to me for a wife; now, therefore, behold, here is thy wife, take her, and go thy way.
20 Hichun Pharaoh in asemang pachong ho thu apetan, “Abram ahin ajinu ahin chule anei agou abonchan hiche gam'a konin gathah doh un,” ati.
And Pharaoh commanded some men concerning him, who accompanied him and his wife, and all that he had.
