Kamtawngnae 39
1 Joseph teh Ishmael taminaw koe Izip ram a thokhai awh teh, Izip siangpahrang Faro kut rahim imkaringkung lah kaawm e Potiphar ni a ran.
And Joseph hath been brought down to Egypt, and Potiphar, a eunuch of Pharaoh, head of the executioners, an Egyptian man, buyeth him out of the hands of the Ishmaelites who have brought him thither.
2 BAWIPA teh Joseph koe ao teh, ahni teh a lam ka cawn e tami lah ao teh Izip tami a bawipa im vah ao.
And Jehovah is with Joseph, and he is a prosperous man, and he is in the house of his lord the Egyptian,
3 A bawipa ni BAWIPA teh ahni koe a o, a hnosak tangkuem dawk a lamcawn tie hah a panue.
and his lord seeth that Jehovah is with him, and all that he is doing Jehovah is causing to prosper in his hand,
4 Joseph teh a bawipa e a lungyouk lah thaw ouk a tawk. A bawipa ni a imkaringkung kacue lah a ta teh, a tawn e hnonaw pueng ahnie kâtawnnae rahim koung a ta pouh.
and Joseph findeth grace in his eyes and serveth him, and he appointeth him over his house, and all that he hath he hath given into his hand.
5 Hahoi, imkaringkung lah a ta hnukkhu, BAWIPA ni Joseph pawlawk hoi Izip imthungkhu hah yawhawi a poe.
And it cometh to pass from the time that he hath appointed him over his house, and over all that he hath, that Jehovah blesseth the house of the Egyptian for Joseph's sake, and the blessing of Jehovah is on all that he hath, in the house, and in the field;
6 A tawn e pueng hah Joseph kut dawk be a ta pouh teh, a ca e vaiyei hloilah teh ahni koe kaawm e hnonaw pueng hah be a poe. Joseph teh a tungtang kahawi e lah ao teh a mei hai a hawi.
and he leaveth all that he hath in the hand of Joseph, and he hath not known anything that he hath, except the bread which he is eating. And Joseph is of a fair form, and of a fair appearance.
7 Hathnukkhu, a bawipa e yu ni Joseph hah a noe teh, na ipkhai leih ti hoi pou a pasawt.
And it cometh to pass after these things, that his lord's wife lifteth up her eyes unto Joseph, and saith, 'Lie with me;'
8 Hatei ngai pouh hoeh. A bawipa e yu koevah, khenhaw! ka bawipa ni hete im dawkvah, bang hno maw kaawm tie panuek hoeh, a tawn e naw pueng ka kut dawk koung a ta.
and he refuseth, and saith unto his lord's wife, 'Lo, my lord hath not known what [is] with me in the house, and all that he hath he hath given into my hand;
9 Hete im dawk kai hlak ka len e apihai awm hoeh. A yu na tho patetlah nang hloilah kai hane a pasoung hoeh e banghai awm hoeh. Hatdawkvah, hethloilah kalen e thoenae hoi yonnae heh Cathut taranlahoi bangtelamaw khuet ka sak han vaw, telah ati.
none is greater in this house than I, and he hath not withheld from me anything, except thee, because thou [art] his wife; and how shall I do this great evil? — then have I sinned against God.'
10 Hahoi, hnin touh hnukkhu hnin touh, Joseph hah a pasawt nakunghai a ikhai hane teh ngai pouh hoeh.
And it cometh to pass at her speaking unto Joseph day [by] day, that he hath not hearkened unto her, to lie near her, to be with her;
11 Hatei, a hnin hnin touh teh, Joseph imthungkhu thaw tawk hanelah a kâen teh, hatnae tueng dawk imthungkhu tami buet touh hai la awm hoeh.
and it cometh to pass about this day, that he goeth into the house to do his work, and there is none of the men of the house there in the house,
12 Hahoi teh, napui ni na ipkhai leih telah a angki dawk a kuet pouh teh, a kut dawk angki pak rading teh alawilah a yawng takhai.
and she catcheth him by his garment, saying, 'Lie with me;' and he leaveth his garment in her hand, and fleeth, and goeth without.
13 Hahoi teh, a angki a kut dawk pak a rading teh a yawng takhai tie a panue toteh,
And it cometh to pass when she seeth that he hath left his garment in her hand, and fleeth without,
14 a im kaawmnaw hah a kaw teh, khenhaw! kai na kaya sak hanelah hete Hebru tami ni kai na yonkhai hanelah imthungkhu na kâen sin teh thayung hoi ka hram pouh.
that she calleth for the men of her house, and speaketh to them, saying, 'See, he hath brought in to us a man, a Hebrew, to play with us; he hath come in unto me, to lie with me, and I call with a loud voice,
15 Hahoi, ka lawk hoi thayung hoi ka hram toteh, kama koe a angki pak a rading teh a yawng takhai telah ati.
and it cometh to pass, when he heareth that I have lifted up my voice and call, that he leaveth his garment near me, and fleeth, and goeth without.'
16 A bawipa a tho hoehroukrak a hnicu teh ama koevah pou a hruek.
And she placeth his garment near her, until the coming in of his lord unto his house.
17 Hahoi teh a vâ koe telah a dei pouh. Hete Hebru tami san kai koe na thokhai e heh, yeiraipo sak hanelah hoi kai koe na kâen sin.
And she speaketh unto him according to these words, saying, 'The Hebrew servant whom thou hast brought unto us, hath come in unto me to play with me;
18 Hahoi, lawk hoi tha hoi ka hram tahma vah, a khohna a yawng takhai telah ati.
and it cometh to pass, when I lift my voice and call, that he leaveth his garment near me, and fleeth without.'
19 Hahoi, a bawipa koe na san ni hettelah na sak tie a yu ni a dei e lawk hah a thai toteh a lungkhuek.
And it cometh to pass when his lord heareth the words of his wife, which she hath spoken unto him, saying, 'According to these things hath thy servant done to me,' that his anger burneth;
20 Hottelah a bawipa ni Joseph a ceikhai teh thongim siangpahrang ni tami khik katek hoi ouk tanae thongim thung a paung awh.
and Joseph's lord taketh him, and putteth him unto the round-house, a place where the king's prisoners [are] bound; and he is there in the round-house.
21 Hateiteh, BAWIPA teh Joseph koe ao teh, a lathueng vah lungmanae a tawn teh thongim ka ring e hmalah minhmai kahawi a hmu sak.
And Jehovah is with Joseph, and stretcheth out kindness unto him, and putteth his grace in the eyes of the chief of the round-house;
22 Hahoi teh, thongim karingkung ni thongkabawtnaw pueng hah Joseph kut dawk koung a ta teh, haw e sak e naw teh Joseph e tawk sak e lah koung a coung.
and the chief of the round-house giveth into the hand of Joseph all the prisoners who [are] in the round-house, and of all that they are doing there, he hath been doer;
23 BAWIPA teh ahni koe ao teh, a lamcawn sak dawkvah, thongim karingkung ni Joseph e kâtawnnae rahim kaawmnaw pueng hah banghai khen awh hoeh toe.
the chief of the round-house seeth not anything under his hand, because Jehovah [is] with him, and that which he is doing Jehovah is causing to prosper.
