Exodus 3
1 Meanwhile, Moses was shepherding the flock of his father-in-law Jethro, the priest of Midian. He led the flock to the far side of the wilderness and came to Horeb, the mountain of God.
Mosi ni Midian vaihma, a masei Jethro e tu hoi hmaenaw a khoum navah, thingyeiyawn e kanîloumlah a ceikhai teh, Horeb tie Cathut e mon koe a pha.
2 There the angel of the LORD appeared to him in a blazing fire from within a bush. Moses saw the bush ablaze with fire, but it was not consumed.
Hatnavah, BAWIPA e kalvantami teh buruk dawk hoi ka tâcawt e hmaito lahoi a kamnue. Mosi ni a khet navah, hmai a to ei, buruk teh a kak hoeh e hah a hmu navah,
3 So Moses thought, “I must go over and see this marvelous sight. Why is the bush not burning up?”
Bangkongmaw buruk kang laipalah ao. Hete kângairu e hno heh ka cei vaiteh ka khet han telah ati.
4 When the LORD saw that he had gone over to look, God called out to him from within the bush, “Moses, Moses!” “Here I am,” he answered.
Mosi ni a khet e BAWIPA ni a hmu navah, Mosi, Mosi telah buruk thung hoiyah a kaw. Mosi ni hai ka o telah atipouh.
5 “Do not come any closer,” God said. “Take off your sandals, for the place where you are standing is holy ground.”
Cathut ni hai hnai hanh. Na khokkhawm hah rading haw. Na kangduenae hmuen teh kathounge talai doeh.
6 Then He said, “I am the God of your father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.” At this, Moses hid his face, for he was afraid to look at God.
Kai teh nange na pa e Cathut, Abraham e Cathut, Isak e Cathut, Jakop e Cathut, doeh telah atipouh. Mosi ni Cathut teh a khet ngam hoeh dawkvah a minhmai a ramuk.
7 The LORD said, “I have indeed seen the affliction of My people in Egypt. I have heard them crying out because of their oppressors, and I am aware of their sufferings.
BAWIPA ni hai Izip ram kaawm e ka taminaw e a khang e rektapnae hah kai ni khei ka hmu toe. Ahnimouh thaw ka tawksak e bawinaw kecu dawk ahnimae hramnae lawk ka thai teh, reithai khangnae hai ka panue.
8 I have come down to rescue them from the hand of the Egyptians and to bring them up out of that land to a good and spacious land, a land flowing with milk and honey—the home of the Canaanites, Hittites, Amorites, Perizzites, Hivites, and Jebusites.
Ahnimouh teh Izip ram, Izip taminaw e kut dawk hoi ratang vaiteh, Kanaannaw, Hitnaw, Amornaw, Periznaw, Hivnaw hoi Jebusitnaw onae ram, sanutui hoi khoitui a lawngnae ram dawk hrawi hanlah kai ka kum.
9 And now the cry of the Israelites has reached Me, and I have seen how severely the Egyptians are oppressing them.
Atu haiyah, Isarelnaw khuika lawk kai koe a pha teh, Izipnaw ni ahnimouh rektapnae hai ka hmu toe.
10 Therefore, go! I am sending you to Pharaoh to bring My people the Israelites out of Egypt.”
Hatdawkvah, atu cet leih. Nang teh ka tami, Isarelnaw hah Izip ram hoi hrawi tâcokhai hanlah, nang teh Faro siangpahrang koe kai ni na patoun han telah atipouh.
11 But Moses asked God, “Who am I, that I should go to Pharaoh and bring the Israelites out of Egypt?”
Mosi nihai, kai teh bang patet e tami lah maw ka o teh, Faro siangpahrang koe ka cei vaiteh, Isarelnaw hah Izip ram hoi hrawi tâcokhai han telah Cathut koe atipouh navah,
12 “I will surely be with you,” God said, “and this will be the sign to you that I have sent you: When you have brought the people out of Egypt, all of you will worship God on this mountain.”
Cathut ni atangcalah kai teh nang koe lah ka o han. Kai ni nang na patounnae mitnoutnae teh, nang ni hote taminaw hah Izip ram hoi hrawi tâcokhai hnukkhu, hete mon dawk Cathut na bawk han telah atipouh.
13 Then Moses asked God, “Suppose I go to the Israelites and say to them, ‘The God of your fathers has sent me to you,’ and they ask me, ‘What is His name?’ What should I tell them?”
Mosi nihai, kai ni Isarelnaw onae hmuen koe ka pha teh, nangmae mintoenaw e Cathut ni kai teh nangmouh koe na patoun toe telah kai ni ka dei pawiteh, ahnimouh ni hote Cathut e min teh apimaw telah kai bout na pacei awh navah, bangtelamaw bout ka dei pouh han telah Cathut koe a pacei.
14 God said to Moses, “I AM WHO I AM. This is what you are to say to the Israelites: ‘I AM has sent me to you.’”
Cathut ni hai KAI teh KAI doeh. KAI ka tet e ni kai teh nangmouh na onae hmuen koe na patoun toe telah Isarelnaw koe bout dei pouh telah Mosi koe atipouh.
15 God also told Moses, “Say to the Israelites, ‘The LORD, the God of your fathers—the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob—has sent me to you.’ This is My name forever, and this is how I am to be remembered in every generation.
Cathut ni Mosi koe bout a dei pouh e teh, nangmae mintoenaw e Cathut, Abraham e Cathut, Isak e Cathut, Jakop e Cathut lah kaawm e BAWIPA ni kai teh nangmouh koe na patoun toe, telah Isarelnaw koe na dei pouh han. Hote min teh a yungyoe e ka min lah ao teh catounnaw ni pahnim hoeh nahanelah ao.
16 Go, assemble the elders of Israel and say to them, ‘The LORD, the God of your fathers—the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob—has appeared to me and said: I have surely attended to you and have seen what has been done to you in Egypt.
Cet nateh Isarel kacuenaw hah pâkhueng nateh, nangmae mintoenaw e Cathut, Abraham e Cathut, Isak e Cathut, Jakop e Cathut lah kaawm e BAWIPA ni kai koe a kamnue teh, nangmouh na khet awh navah, Izip ram vah nangmouh lathueng bangmaw a sak awh tie kamcengcalah ka hmu awh toe.
17 And I have promised to bring you up out of your affliction in Egypt, into the land of the Canaanites, Hittites, Amorites, Perizzites, Hivites, and Jebusites—a land flowing with milk and honey.’
Izip ram vah na khang a e rucatnae dawk hoi nangmouh na ratang vaiteh, Kanaannaw, Hit naw, Amor naw, Periznaw, Hiv naw hoi Jebusitnaw ram, sanutui hoi khoitui a lawngnae ram dawk hrawi kâenkhai hanlah kai ni lawk ka kam telah ahnimouh koe dei pouh.
18 The elders of Israel will listen to what you say, and you must go with them to the king of Egypt and tell him, ‘The LORD, the God of the Hebrews, has met with us. Now please let us take a three-day journey into the wilderness, so that we may sacrifice to the LORD our God.’
Ahnimouh ni nange lawk a ngâi awh vaiteh, nang ni Isarel kacuenaw hoi Izip siangpahrang koe na kâen vaiteh, Hebrunaw e BAWIPA Cathut teh kaimouh ni kâhmo awh toe. Ramke dawk hnin thum touh lam cei koe kamamae BAWIPA Cathut thuengnae sak thai hanelah, kâ na poe haw, telah na ti pouh han.
19 But I know that the king of Egypt will not allow you to go unless a mighty hand compels him.
Izip siangpahrang ni a thaonae kut laipalah teh, cei nahane kâ na poe awh mahoeh tie ka panue.
20 So I will stretch out My hand and strike the Egyptians with all the wonders I will perform among them. And after that, he will release you.
Kai ni hai kut ka daw vaiteh, Izip ram dawk ka sak hane kaie kângairunae hoi hote ram teh runae ka poe han. Hathnukkhu, Izip siangpahrang ni nangmouh teh na tâco sak awh han.
21 And I will grant this people such favor in the sight of the Egyptians that when you leave, you will not go away empty-handed.
Hote miphun teh Izipnaw koe minhmai kahawi a hmu sak vaiteh, nangmouh ni na tâco awh navah, kuthrawng hoi na tâcawt awh mahoeh.
22 Every woman shall ask her neighbor and any woman staying in her house for silver and gold jewelry and clothing, and you will put them on your sons and daughters. So you will plunder the Egyptians.”
Bangkongtetpawiteh, napui pueng ni imri, amamae im dawk kaawm e koe sui ngun hoi khohnanaw a hei awh vaiteh, nangmae na canaw hah a pathoup awh vaiteh, Izipnaw e hnopai hah na lawp awh han telah Mosi koe a dei pouh.
