Tâconae 33

1 Hottelah BAWIPA ni Mosi hah a pato teh, hi hoi tâcawt awh nateh, Abraham, Isak hoi Jakop koevah, na catounnaw hanelah na poe han telah thoebo laihoi lawk ka kam e ram dawk, nang hoi Izip ram hoi na tâcokhai e naw hoi cet takhang awh.

And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying: God, get thee up from this place, thou and thy people which thou has brought out of the land of Egypt, into the land concerning which I swore to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, saying: To thy seed I will give it.

2 Nangmae hmalah kalvantami ka patoun vaiteh, Kanaan taminaw, Amor taminaw, Hit taminaw, Periznaw, Hivnaw hoi Jubusitnaw hah ka pâlei han.

And I will send an angel before thee, that I may cast out the Chanaanite, and the Amorrhite, and the Hethite, and the Pherezite, and the Hevite, and the Jebusite.

3 Khoitui hoi maitosanutui a lawngnae ram dawk cet takhang awh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, kai teh nangmouh koe ka cet takhang van mahoeh. A lung ka patak poung e lah na o awh dawkvah, lamlak vah koung na pathup payon han doeh telah ati.

That thou mayst enter into the land that floweth with milk and honey. For I will not go up with thee, because thou art a stiffnecked people: lest I destroy thee in the way.

4 Hottelah tamimaya ni hete kamthang kathout a thai awh toteh, a ka awh teh apihai kamthoup ngai awh hoeh.

And the people hearing these very bad tidings, mourned: and no man put on his ornaments according to custom.

5 Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA ni Mosi koe Isarel catounnaw koe vah, a lung ka patak poung e miphun lah na o awh, nangmouh koe dongdeng ka o nakunghai, koung na pathup awh han. Hatdawkvah nangmouh koe ka sak hane ka panue thai nahanelah, na kamthoupnae pueng hah koung rading awh telah a dei toe.

And the Lord said to Moses: Say to the children of Israel: Thou are a stiffnecked people; once I shall come up in the midst of thee, and shall destroy thee. Now presently lay aside thy ornaments, that I may know what to do with thee.

6 Hatdawkvah Isarelnaw ni a kamthoupnae hah Horeb mon vah a kârading awh.

So the children of Israel laid aside their ornaments by mount Horeb.

7 Mosi ni Lukkareiim hah a ceikhai teh, roenae lawilah betbet ahlanae koe ouk a yap. Hot hah kamkhuengnae lukkareiim ati awh. Hahoi BAWIPA tawng ka ngai e pueng teh, roenae lawilah kamkhuengnae lukkareiim dawkvah ouk a cei awh.

Moses also taking the tabernacle, pitched it without the camp afar off, and called the name thereof, The tabernacle of the covenant. And all the people that had any question, went forth to the tabernacle of the covenant, without the camp.

8 Hahoi, Mosi teh lukkareiim pâtam hoi a cei lahun nah, tamimaya a thaw awh teh amamae rim takhang koe a kangdue awh teh, Mosi lukkareiim thung a kâen totouh a khet awh.

And when Moses went forth to the tabernacle, all the people rose up, and every one stood in the door of his pavilion, and they beheld the back of Moses, till he went into the tabernacle.

9 Hahoi Mosi teh lukkareiim dawk a kâen tahma vah, tâmaikhom a kum teh lukkareiim takhang koe a kangdue teh BAWIPA ni Mosi hah a pato.

And when he was gone into the tabernacle of the covenant, the pillar of the cloud came down, and stood at the door, and he spoke with Moses.

10 Hahoi tamimaya ni lukkareiim takhang koe tâmaikhom a kangdue e hah a hmu awh. Hat toteh, tamimaya teh a thaw awh teh, amamae rim takhang koehoi lengkaleng a bawk awh.

And all saw that the pillar of the cloud stood at the door of the tabernacle. And they stood, and worshipped at the doors of their tents.

11 Tami ni a hui a pato e patetlah, BAWIPA ni Mosi hah minhmai kâhmo laihoi a pato teh, roenae hmuen koe lah a ban. A san Nun capa thoundoun Joshua hateh lukkareiim cettakhai boihoeh.

And the Lord spoke to Moses face to face, as a man is wont to speak to his friend. And when he returned into the camp, his servant Josue the son of Nun, a young man, departed not from the tabernacle.

12 Mosi ni BAWIPA koevah, khenhaw! nang ni kai koevah hetnaw heh luenkhai loe ati. Hatei apimaw kai koe na patoun han tie teh na panuek sak hoeh rah. Hatei, nang ni na min lahoi na panue teh, ka mit dawk minhmai kahawi ka hmu, na ti pouh.

And Moses said to the Lord; Thou commandest me to lead forth this people: and thou dost not let me know whom thou wilt send with me, especially whereas thou hast said: I know thee by name, and thou hast found favour in my sight.

13 Hatdawkvah, na mit dawk minhmai kahawi ka hmawt pawiteh, ka panue nahan hoi na mithmu vah pahrennae ka hmu thai nahanlah lamthung na panuek sak haw, telah ka kâhei. Hete miphun heh na tamimaya doeh tie hah pouk, telah ati.

If therefore I have found favour in thy sight, show me thy face, that I may know thee, and may find grace before thy eyes: look upon thy people this nation.

14 Ahni ni, nangmouh koe ka o vaiteh, kâhatnae na poe awh han atipouh.

And the Lord said: My face shall go before thee, and I will give thee rest.

15 Ahni ni, kai koevah na cet hoehpawiteh, hete hmuen koehoi na tâcawt sak hanh.

And Moses said: If thou thyself dost not go before, bring us not out of this place.

16 Bangkongtetpawiteh, kaimouh koe na cet laipalah kai hoi na taminaw teh na mithmu vah lungmanae ka hmu awh tie hah, bangtelamaw ka panue awh han. Hottelah talai van kaawm e taminaw pueng koehoi kai hoi na taminaw teh ka pek e lah ka o awh han, atipouh.

For how shall we be able to know, I and thy people, that we have found grace in thy sight, unless thou walk with us, that we may be glorified by all people that dwell upon the earth?

17 BAWIPA ni Mosi koevah, hot hai na dei e patetlah ka sak han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, ka mit dawk na kuep teh na min lahoi na panue telah atipouh.

And the Lord said to Moses: This word also, which thou hast spoken, will I do: for thou hast found grace before me, and thee I have known by name.

18 Ahni ni na bawilennae teh pahren lahoi na hmawt sak haw atipouh.

And he said: Shew me thy glory.

19 Ahni ni, ka hawinae pueng heh na hmalah ka kamnue sak vaiteh, Jehovah min hah na hmalah ka pâpho han. Pahren han ka ngai e hah ka pahren vaiteh, ka lungma han ka ngai e pueng hah ka lungma han, atipouh.

He answered: I will shew thee all good, and I will proclaim in the name of the Lord before thee: and I will have mercy on whom I will, and I will be merciful to whom it shall please me.

20 Hatei ahni ni, ka minhmai teh na hmawt thai mahoeh, bangkongtetpawiteh na ka hmawt e tami hring boihoeh, ati.

And again he said: Thou canst not see my face: for man shall not see me and live.

21 BAWIPA ni khenhaw! ka teng vah hmuen buet touh ao, lungsong van na kangdue han.

And again he said: Behold there is a place with me, and thou shalt stand upon the rock.

22 Hahoi, ka bawilennae ni na ceihlawi navah, kâbawng e lungsong thungvah na ta han, na ceitakhai hoehroukrak ka kut hoi na tabuem han.

And when my glory shall pass, I will set thee in a hole of the rock, and protect thee with my right hand, till I pass:

23 Hahoi ka kut hah bout ka la vaiteh ka hnukthun hah na hmu han, hatei, ka minhmai teh na hmawt mahoeh, atipouh.

And I will take away my hand, and thou shalt see my back parts: but my face thou canst not see.
