Semtilbu 20
1 Hiche akon chun Abraham chu Negev gam langa akichon in Kadesh le Shur kikah a phat chomkhat ana cheng in, chuin Gerar lang gei in aga cheng in ahi.
And Abraam removed thence to the southern country, and lived between Cades and Sur, and sojourned in Gerara.
2 Abraham'in a inneipi Sarah chu “Ka sopinu ahi,” tin ana phong don in ahile Gerar lengpa Abimelech chun mi asol'in Sarah chu aga pui sah tai.
And Abraam said concerning Sarrha his wife, She is my sister, for he feared to say, She is my wife, lest at any time the men of the city should kill him for her sake. So Abimelech king of Gerara sent and took Sarrha.
3 Hinlah hiche jan chun Pathen in Abimelech amang in aki musah in hitin aseipeh'e, “Nangma hi athisa nahi ahi tai, ajeh chu numei na kipui hi aji nei numei ahi bouve!”
And God came to Abimelech by night in sleep, and said, Behold, you die for the woman, whom you have taken, whereas she has lived with a husband.
4 Ahin Abimelech chun amanu (Sarah), chu akitimatpi loulai ahi, hijeh chun Abimelech in “Pakai nangin hiche imacha hechenlou nam hi na suhmang mong ding hitam?
But Abimelech had not touched her, and he said, Lord, will you destroy an ignorantly [sinning] and just nation?
5 Hitia chu Abraham tah in jong ka sopinu ahi tia eina houlimpi hilou ham? Chule amanun jong ka sopipa ahi atia,” hijeh achu keiman ka lungthim a jong themmo na beihel a chule ka khut teni jong atheng ahi bouve ati.
Said he not to me, She is my sister, and said she not to me, He is my brother? with a pure heart and in the righteousness of my hands have I done this.
6 Hijeh chun Pathen in amang in adonbut in, “Ahinai, keiman nangma hetthem louna ho chu ka henai. hiche ho jeh achu nangma keima douna a chonset a konna kasuh khen a chule hiche ho jeh a chu numeinu to kaki timat sah lou ahi.
And God said to him in sleep, Yes, I knew that you did this with a pure heart, and I spared you, so that you should not sin against me, therefore I suffered you not to touch her.
7 Tun numeinu chu a inneipu komma soltan, amapa a inneipun taona naman peh ding ahi, ajeh chu ama themgao ahi, chuteng nangma nadam kit ding ahi tai. Ahin nahet ding khat chu a inneipi nanung peh doh louleh nangma chule na mite nathi gam diu ahi.
But now return the man his wife; for he is a prophet, and shall pray for you, and you shall live; but if you restore her not, know that you shall die and all your.
8 Hijeh chun Abimelech jong jingkah matah in a kithu doh in chuin asoh ho jouse gang tah in akou khom tan, chuin Abimelech in thusoh jouse chu asohte ho lah achun aseiyin tijat na adim tauve.
And Abimelech rose early in the morning, and called all his servants, and he spoke all these words in their ears, and all the men feared exceedingly.
9 Hichun Abimelech in Abraham chu akou vin ajah'a “Ipibol a hiti pia hi nei hung bol'u hitam? Itobang a nang douna a kana chonset hitam, hitia keile ka leng gam chunga chonset nasatah hi nahin pohlut ham? bol louhel ding thil nangman neibol khum ahi tai,” ati.
And Abimelech called Abraam and said to him, What is this that you have done to us? Have we sinned against you, that you have brought upon me and upon my kingdom a great sin? You have done to me a deed, which no one ought to do.
10 Chuin Abimelech in Abraham komma aseiye, “Nang in ipi nabol na ham?”
And Abimelech said to Abraam, What have you seen in [me] that you have done this?
11 Abraham'in adonbut in, “Hiche munhi Pathen ginglou mihem tamna mun ahi tin kagel in, ka loinu chu ka sopinu ahi kiti leh ama nu jeh a chu eitha lou diu ham kati ahi.”
And Abraam said, Why I said, Surely there is not the worship of God in this place, and they will kill me because of my wife.
12 Adihtah asei dinga ka sopinu jong ahi nai, kapa eihing lhonpa khat ahin kanu lhon vang achom chom ahi. keiman kaji din kaki pui tai.
For truly she is my sister by my father, but not by my mother, and she became my wife.
13 Pathen in eina kou doh chun kapa insung kanada lhah chun mun khat a patna mun chom a kana vale lhon lai chun kana seiye, thil ngaichat kaneiye katin, hoilang hi jongle iche le naho gamsunga na sopipa tin miho lah a neiphon doh ding ahi tin kana seipeh e.”
And it came to pass when God brought me forth out of the house of my father, that I said to her, This righteousness you shall perform to me, in every place into which we may enter, say of me, He is my brother.
14 Hichun Abimelech in akelcha ho le kelngoi hon ho chule abong hon chule numei pasal asoh ho chu Abraham apetai. Abimelech in a inneipi Sarah jong chu anungsol peh kit tai.
And Abimelech took a thousand pieces of silver, and sheep, and calves, and servants, and maidservants, and gave them to Abraam, and he returned him Sarrha his wife.
15 Hichun Abimelech in adonbut in, “Dah'in lang vetem in kagam sung nang in nadei pen na mun a na chen thei ahiye.”
And Abimelech said to Abraam, Behold, my land is before you, dwell wherever it may please you.
16 Abimelech in Sarah jah'a aseiye, “Ven keiman na sopipa dangka sang khat kapen, hiche sum hi na koma um chengse mitmu a asuh khel kihet them to na dinga kapeh ahi, chule japi angsunga nangma boina nanei tapoi,” ati.
And to Sarrha he said, Behold, I have given your brother a thousand pieces of silver, those shall be to you for the price of your countenance, and to all the women with you, and speak the truth in all things.
17 Hichun Abraham'in Pathen kom a taona amang in Pathen in Abimelech asu dam tan, chule a inneipi le asoh numei ho jouse naobu jouse jong cha aneithei na diuvin aki hong gam tai.
And Abraam prayed to God, and God healed Abimelech, and his wife, and his women servants, and they bore children.
18 Ajeh chu Abraham jinu Sarah jeh a Pakaiyin Abimelech insunga numei naobu jouse ana kha tan peh ahiye.
Because the Lord had fast closed from without every womb in the house of Abimelech, because of Sarrha Abraam's wife.
