1 Tuhin Canaan gamsunga kel lhah chu akhoh cheh cheh jeng in ahi.
And the famine was sore in the land.
2 Egypt gam'a kon a ahinpoh'u anchang aneh chai phat un hichun apao Jacob in achate jah a aseitai, “Nung che kit unlang neh ding gacho kit tauvin,” ati.
And it came to pass, when they had completely eaten up the provisions which they had brought out of Egypt, that their father said unto them, Go again, buy us a little food.
3 Ahin Judah in apa Jacob a donbut in, “Gamsung lamkai pa chun hatah in eigah un, na sopi pao chu nahin puilou ule kamai namu lou dingu ahi,” ati.
And Judah said unto him, thus, The man did solemnly protest unto us, saying, Ye shall not see my face, except your brother be with you.
4 Benjamin keiho toh na sol khom le kache dingu anchang kaga choh dingu ahi ati.
If thou wilt send our brother with us, we will go down and buy thee food;
5 Amavang Benjamin che ding naphal loule keiho jong kache lou hel ding'u ahi taiti geldoh in, ajeh chu gamsung lamkai pa chun aseiye, “Na sopi pao alhum pen pachu nahin pui lou ule kamai namu lou dingu ahi atisa ahi.”
But if thou sendest him not, we will not go down; for the man said unto us, Ye shall not see my face, except your brother be with you.
6 Hichun Jacob in adonbut in, “Ibol a nang hon nei suh genthei ju hitam, hiche gamvai popa koma chu sopi khat ka nei nalai uve tia nahin seidoh uham,” ati.
And Israel said, Wherefore have ye dealt so ill with me, as to tell the man that ye have yet another brother?
7 Amahon a donbut un, “Hiche gamsung lamkai pa chun eiho insung chan chin thu hoitah in aman thudoh eineijun, napao dam nalai em tin eidong un, hiche a chun keihon amapa thudoh ho chu ka donbut cheh un, chule keima hon iti ka het thei diu ham? na sopi pao hinpui yun ati ding chu,” atiuve.
And they said, The man inquired particularly concerning us, and our kindred, saying, Is your father yet alive? have ye another brother? and we told him according to the tenor of these words: could we possibly know that he would say, Bring down your brother?
8 Judah in apa Israel koma asei tan, “Chapang pachu hin sol in hiche teng chule keiho kaga che diu ahi, chule eiho jouse le echateu jouse iki hinso thei ding'u ahi ati.
And Judah said unto Israel his father, Send the lad with me, and we will arise and go; that we may live, and not die, both we, and thou, as also our little ones.
9 Chule keima ka tahsa tah in mopo nang kate ijem tia boina aum khah le, ahin Benjamin chu kahin nung pui loule boina jouse keiman mo ka poh ding ahi ati; chule nangma angsunga mopoh na thepmo na jouse keima chunga chu jeng hen ati.
I will be surety for him; from my hand shalt thou require him: if I bring him not unto thee, and set him before thee, then shall I have sinned against thee all the days.
10 Amavang eiho ana geisang hih leu hen tuphat a hi nivei tobang kilhung thei ding ahitai.”
For, if we had not lingered, surely we had now returned the second time.
11 Chuphat in apao Israel chun ajah uva, ‘chuti ding mong ahiya ahile hiti hin ki gong uvin, gamsunga thingga phalai cheh lheng khom uvin lang, thingnai, lou them khat le khoiju them khat toh, thil namtwi toh, thei chang toh, chule jonmot chang toh nadip sunguva mipa peh ding chun posuh uvin ati.’
And their father Israel said unto them, If it must be so now, do this: take of the best products of the land in your vessels, and carry down to the man a present, a little balm, and a little honey, spices and lotus, pistachio-nuts and almonds;
12 Chule dangka jong athop in pohbe un, ajeh chu na dip sung uva anaki koi chu koitobang khat in jong anabol khel jong himai thei ahi.
And twofold money take in your hand; and the money that was put back in the mouth of your sacks, you must carry back in your hand; peradventure it was an oversight;
13 Hijeh chun nasopi pao hi pui jun lang gamsung lamkai heng a nung che tauvin.
Also your brother take along, and arise, go again unto the man.
14 Chule hatchung nung Pathen in phatthei naboh maiju hen, hiche gamsung vaipo mit mua jong ngailut na mel na chan thei na diuvin ati, chule nangma hon na sopi pao Simeon chule Benjamin na hin hen ohna lou dingu vin, chule keima vang ka chate jal'a thilo pai ding ka hitai,” ati.
And may God the Almighty give you mercy before the man, that he may send away to you your other brother, and Benjamin. And I, if I am to be bereaved, let me be bereaved.
15 Hichun amahon Jacob thilpeh ho chu agongtup un, chule adipsung uva sum jong athop in apoh be uvin, Benjamin toh akilhon tauve; hichun amaho Egypt gam alhung taovin Joseph masanga a ding tauvin ahi.
And the men took that present; and twofold money they took in their hand, as also Benjamin; and they rose up, and went down to Egypt, and stood before Joseph.
16 Chuin Joseph in Benjamin amaho lah a ahung chu amutan, hichun aman a insunga lhacha a pangho jah a hitin aseiye, “Amaho toh'in tunia an nekho ding ka hiuvin hijeh chun insung lama ana puilut un, chule gancha ana that un, kin thupitah kimang ding ahi.”
And when Joseph saw Benjamin with them, he said to the superintendent of his house, Bring these men into the house, and slay, and make ready; for with me shall these men dine at noon.
17 Hichun lhacha hon Joseph in asei bang chun abol'un, amaho sese chu Joseph inlam a apuitau vin ahi.
And the man did as Joseph had said; and the man brought the men into Joseph's house.
18 Joseph insung a akipui lut jengu amudoh phat’ uvin miho chu aki chau vin, “Iche masah uva idip sunguva sum anaki nung hetlut jeh a hikoma hi eipui lut'uva, chutia chu mi khat hin hehset neu neuva, kitaole na einei dingu chuteng le eiho chengse soh a einei uva chule isangan teu aboncha akilah got hiya ahitai,” akiti uve.
And the men were afraid, because they were brought into Joseph's house: and they said, Because of the money that came back in our sacks at the first time are we brought in; that he may seek occasion against us, and fall upon us, and take us for bondmen, together with our asses.
19 Judah le asopihon Joseph insunga lhacha lamkai pa koma ache un akelkot koma hitin asei uve.
And they came near to the man who was appointed over Joseph's house, and they spoke with him at the door of the house.
20 Amaho atao vun; Ja umtah pu, keima ho hi phat masa chun Egypt gam'a anchang cho a ka hung uve.
And they said, Pardon, my lord, we came down at the first time to buy food:
21 Ahin keiho kaki nungle uchun jan ahiphat in ka dip sungu kahon doh ule hichun keihon ka dipsung uva dangka thil choh na man ho chu mijouse dipsunga ana umsoh keiye, tuhin hiche dangka ho chu ka hin nungpoh cheh nauve.
And it came to pass, when we came to the inn, that we opened our sacks, and, behold, every man's money was in the mouth of his sack, our money in its full weight; and we have brought it back in our hand.
22 Chule keihon chang chohbe nading dangka jong ka hin pohbe uvin, koi tobang ham khat in dangka ho ka dipsung uva ana koi jong chu ka pum het pouve.
And other money have we brought down in our hand to buy food; we know not who hath put our money in our sacks.
23 Imacha lungboina nei hih un, tin insung lhacha pa chun aseiye, Na Pakai na pate Pathen chun na dipsung uva nahin koipeh'u ahi, na dangka hou jong keima koma aum nai; hichun aman Simeon chu alha kang in amaho laha ahinpui dohtan ahi.
And he said, Peace be to you, fear not; your God, and the God of your father, hath given you a treasure in your sacks; your money hath come to me. And he brought Simeon out unto them.
24 Insung lhacha pa chun miho chu Joseph leng insung lama apuilut tauvin ahi, insung lhacha pan twi akengu kisil ngim na ding apen chule sangan ho ding anneh jong ape uvin ahi.
And the man brought the men into Joseph's house; and he gave them water, and they washed their feet, and he gave provender to their asses.
25 Hichun amahon Joseph peh dinga ahin thilpoh houchu akigon tup uvin, chule amahon aja tauvin sunteng le Joseph toh an aneh khom ding'u thu chu;
And they made ready the present before Joseph came home at noon; for they had heard that they should eat bread there.
26 Hichun Joseph in ahung lhun chun amahon athil poh'u chu ahin la doh un Joseph masanga tol'a abohkhup tauvin ahi.
And when Joseph came home, they brought him the present which was in their hand into the house, and bowed themselves to him to the earth.
27 Amahon alemjou chun adong tan napao akum atam tai nati pao chu “Dam jinga hinam, ama chu dam dam a hinam tin adong in ahi.”
And he asked them after their welfare, and said, Is your old father well, of whom ye spoke? is he yet alive?
28 Amahon adon but un, “Henge adam dam nai atiuve,” chule nasohte keiho dinga ka pao chu adam in ahing na laiye,” chuin amaho Joseph ma sanga abohkhup kit uvin ahi.
And they answered, Thy servant, our father, is in good health, he is yet alive. And they bowed down their heads, and prostrated themselves.
29 Hichun Joseph in asopipa Benjamin chu aven “Amahi ham na sopiu alhum pen pa na tiu chu tin Joseph in adong tai,” Pathen in na umpi jingta hen O ka chapa!” ati.
And he lifted up his eyes, and saw his brother Benjamin, his mother's son, and said, Is this your youngest brother, of whom ye spoke unto me? And he said, God be gracious unto thee, my son.
30 Hichun Joseph ama umna insung dena kon in apot doh in, ajeh chu asopipa amu chun ama akitim joutapon, hichun ama indan sungnunga alutin agakaptan ahi.
And Joseph hastened away, for his affection toward his brother became enkindled, and he sought to weep; and he entered into his chamber and wept there.
31 Chuin amai akiphet jouvin ama ahung potdoh kit in nasatah in akitim ham ham in, “An neh ding hin thuh taovin,” ati.
And he washed his face, and came out, and refrained himself, and said, Set on the bread.
32 Hijeh chun amahon Joseph ding atum in, amaho ding atumin, chule ama toh nekhom ding Egypt mite ding atumin ankong asem tauve, ijeh inem itile Egypt miten Hebrew mite toh an aneh khom ngailouvu, neh khom ding chu Egypt mite dinga bohna khat hiya ahiye.
And they set on for him by himself, and for them by themselves; and for the Egyptians, who did eat with him, by themselves; because the Egyptians may not eat bread with the Hebrews; for that is an abomination unto the Egyptians.
33 Joseph in asopiho chu atouna din akoi peh cheh in, ama hon jong ajalheh jeng un, amaho tahsa kum alen penna pat aneopen pa gei in atou nao agontup peh in atou sah tan ahi.
And they sat before him, the first-born according to his prior birth, and the youngest according to his youth; and the men marveled one at the other.
34 Amoho chan ding chu Joseph chan lah akon in asoh doh uvin ahi; chujong le Benjamin chan chu amaho khat chan jat sangin chan ajat ngan atam joi. Hitobang chun ama hon Joseph chutoh an ane khom uvin adon khom tauvin ahi.
And he sent portions unto them from before him; but Benjamin's portion exceeded the portions of all of them fivefold. And they drank, and were merry with him.
