1 Abram chu kum somko le kumko alhin in Pathen in ahoulimpi in hitin aseipeh e, “Keima Elshaddai Pathen chungnung kahi. Hijeh chun lunglhaisel in nei hou jing in lang, chule thenna hinkho mang jing in,” ati.
And when Abram was ninety years old and nine, the LORD appeared to Abram, and said unto him, I [am] the Almighty God; walk before me, and be thou perfect.
2 Keiman nangma to ikikah a kitepna nape ing ka-ting hichu thonlou hela nangma chilhah simsen lou kapeh ding nahi.
And I will make my covenant between me and thee, and will multiply thee exceedingly.
3 Hichun Abram in amai tol lang aven hichun Pathen in ahin hou vin hitin aseiye,
And Abram fell on his face: and God talked with him, saying,
4 Hiche hi keima le nangma kinop tona ahi, keiman nangma hi nam jouse mipa kaso ding nahi ati.
As for me, behold, my covenant [is] with thee, and thou shalt be a father of many nations.
5 Abanna jong na min jong kakhel peh ding, Abram nahi tahlou ding, Hinlah nangma hi Abraham na kiti ding ahi tai, ajeh chu nangma hi nam jouse mipa nahi ding ahi tai.
Neither shall thy name any more be called Abram, but thy name shall be Abraham; for a father of many nations have I made thee.
6 Keiman nangma hatah a kaga sah ding, na lolhin ding na chilhah ten nam tamtah ahin sondoh diu, chule leng thupitah tah jong amaho lah a hung umdoh ding ahiye.
And I will make thee exceeding fruitful, and I will make nations of thee, and kings shall come out of thee.
7 Keiman athah a nangma to iki noptona chu na chilhahte to kaki tepna avela ka phudoh kit ding nangma nunga na chilhahte a dinga jong, khang le khang kikah ajong, hiche hi atonsot'a hiding, keima na Pathen nu kahi jing ding chule nanam, na chilhahte Pathen jong kahi jing ding ahi.
And I will establish my covenant between me and thee and thy seed after thee in their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be a God unto thee, and to thy seed after thee.
8 Keiman Canaan gam pumpi ahin, tua nachen na gam kholjin banga nachen nau hi nason na chilhahte atonsot a goulo dinga ka peh ding, chule amaho dinga jong a Pathen'u kahi jing ding ahi,” ati.
And I will give unto thee, and to thy seed after thee, the land wherein thou art a stranger, all the land of Canaan, for an everlasting possession; and I will be their God.
9 Hichun Pathen in Abraham ahoulimpi in, “Nangma tah in jong kinopto na hi na jui ding, chule na nunga nason na chilhahte dinga jong akhang lhum kei uva ajui ding'u ahi.
And God said unto Abraham, Thou shalt keep my covenant therefore, thou, and thy seed after thee in their generations.
10 Hiche hi ahi kinopto na nangma le na chilhahte jousen ajui cheh ding, nangho lah a pasal jousen chep akitan soh kei ding'u ahi.
This [is] my covenant, which ye shall keep, between me and you and thy seed after thee; Every man child among you shall be circumcised.
11 Nangman na bollou a hitheilou chu na tahsa vun val abohlai chu na chelhah soh kei ding, hichun avetsah chu ahile keima le nangma kikah a ki nopto na hijing ding ahi.
And ye shall circumcise the flesh of your foreskin; and it shall be a token of the covenant betwixt me and you.
12 Hiche hi nangma insung mite seh hilou vin, koi tobang nasoh na kol nangma insunga dinga na choh doh ho jouse jong ahop tha cheh ding,
And he that is eight days old shall be circumcised among you, every man child in your generations, he that is born in the house, or bought with money of any stranger, which [is] not of thy seed.
13 Abonchauva chep na kitan cheh diu, na tahsa uva maha na poh u-chu keima toh atonsot na iki nopto na'uva umjing ding ahiye.
He that is born in thy house, and he that is bought with thy money, must needs be circumcised: and my covenant shall be in your flesh for an everlasting covenant.
14 Koi tobang pasal khat tou hiche kinopto na cheptan hi bol lou aumle ama chu kinopto na insunga kon'a paimanga um ding ahi, ajeh chu kinopto na ajuilou jeh ahi.
And the uncircumcised man child whose flesh of his foreskin is not circumcised, that soul shall be cut off from his people; he hath broken my covenant.
15 Hichun Pathen in Abraham ahoulimpi in “Sarai na Inneipi Sarai na ti tahlou ding ahi, ijeh inem itile amanu min jong hi tua patna Sarah hiding ahi tai.
And God said unto Abraham, As for Sarai thy wife, thou shalt not call her name Sarai, but Sarah [shall] her name [be].
16 Keiman amanu hi phatthei kaboh a chu jongle ama nu akon a hi chapa khat kapeh ding nahi, hitia chu keiman amanu hi phatthei kaboh a ama jong “Sarah” chitin namtin nu hung hi ding mitin vaipi leng ding ho jeng jong amanu akona hung peng doh ding ahiuve,” ati.
And I will bless her, and give thee a son also of her: yea, I will bless her, and she shall be [a mother] of nations; kings of people shall be of her.
17 Hichun Abraham jong akun in tol lang aven anui tai, chuin alungthim in amale ama akihou vin, Keima hi kum jakhat kahi nunga mipa kahi thei ding ham? Chule ka inneipi Sarah jong kum som ko le kum ko ahi jouva naosen iti anei thei ding ham? ati.
Then Abraham fell upon his face, and laughed, and said in his heart, Shall [a child] be born unto him that is an hundred years old? and shall Sarah, that is ninety years old, bear?
18 Abraham'in Pathen heng'a asei in, “Ahi thei ding le Ishmael hi nangma phattheibohna noiya um jing tahen.”
And Abraham said unto God, O that Ishmael might live before thee!
19 Hinlah Pathen in adonbut in, “ahipoi Sarah na inneipi in nangma adinga chapa khat nahin peh ding, nangman hiche chapang chu amin Isaac nasah ding ahi. Chule keiman amale ama nunga ason achilhahte dinga kinopto na chu atonsot geiya kinopto na a umjing dinga kaphu doh ding ahi.
And God said, Sarah thy wife shall bear thee a son indeed; and thou shalt call his name Isaac: and I will establish my covenant with him for an everlasting covenant, [and] with his seed after him.
20 Ishmael jong chu phatthei kaboh ding nangman nathum ma bang'a, ama jeng jong hatah a kapun sah ding, chule ama chilhahte ho jong hatah a pung dingu ahi.
And as for Ishmael, I have heard thee: Behold, I have blessed him, and will make him fruitful, and will multiply him exceedingly; twelve princes shall he beget, and I will make him a great nation.
21 Hinlah keima kitepna vang chu Sarah in khovei tulai phat'a hi nahin ding Isaac chuto bou ka phudoh ding ahi,” ati.
But my covenant will I establish with Isaac, which Sarah shall bear unto thee at this set time in the next year.
22 Pathen in thu aseijou phat chun Abraham chu adalhatai.
And he left off talking with him, and God went up from Abraham.
23 Hichun Abraham'in jong achapa Ishmael ahin, asoh pasal ama insunga peng den hihen, sum a achoh tho hi jongle, Abraham mite lah a pasal jouse chu apuikhom in, Pathen'in aseipeh bang bang chun hiche nikho mama chun chep atan peh soh kei in ahi.
And Abraham took Ishmael his son, and all that were born in his house, and all that were bought with his money, every male among the men of Abraham’s house; and circumcised the flesh of their foreskin in the selfsame day, as God had said unto him.
24 Abraham'in chep akitan chun akum kum som ko le kum ko ana lhing tai.
And Abraham [was] ninety years old and nine, when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin.
25 Chule achapa Ishmael in chep akitan chun kum som le kum thum ana lhing tan ahi.
And Ishmael his son [was] thirteen years old, when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin.
26 Ani lhon in Abraham le achapa Ishmael chu nikhat na chep tan lhon gel ahi.
In the selfsame day was Abraham circumcised, and Ishmael his son.
27 Chule a insunga pasal jouse, insunga pengden hihen lang gam dang mi soh dinga akichoh tho hi jongle aboncha amatoh tha khat'a chep kitan thah cheh ahiuve.
And all the men of his house, born in the house, and bought with money of the stranger, were circumcised with him.
