Genesis 44
1 Then Joseph instructed his steward: “Fill the men’s sacks with as much food as they can carry, and put each one’s silver in the mouth of his sack.
Hichun asopiho chu cheding in aki gong tauvin, Joseph in insung lhacha ho lah a aseitan, “Amaho dipsunga chun apoh thei jat u dimset in anchang kipoh sah un, chule dangka ahin kipoh hou chu nunghet peh cheh kitun,” ati.
2 Put my cup, the silver one, in the mouth of the youngest one’s sack, along with the silver for his grain.” So the steward did as Joseph had instructed.
Chuteng le keima sum eng cha khon chu alhumpen pa dipsunga achung tho pena koi jun chule chang choh na dinga sum ahin kipoh toh chun koi than, hiti chun insung lhacha pan jong Joseph in asei bang chun aboltan ahi.
3 At daybreak, the men were sent on their way with their donkeys.
Jingkah matah in akipat doh un ache tauve, a sangan ho jong vumlet set in neh ding apon alampiu majon ding in asol tauve.
4 They had not gone far from the city when Joseph told his steward, “Pursue the men at once, and when you overtake them, ask, ‘Why have you repaid good with evil?
Amaho chu khopia kon chun achedoh nauvin gamla pi agei masang uvin Joseph in jong ainsung thil chingpa jah a chun, “kipat doh in lang miho nung chu del loiyin, amaho chu naphah teng le ajah uva, “Ipi ding pen tah a ka phat nau thilpha chu git louva na lethuh u-hitam ong? Ipi dinga keima dangka khon chu nana guh mangu ham?
5 Is this not the cup my master drinks from and uses for divination? What you have done is wicked!’”
Nangho hin ibola kapupa sum eng cha khon na guh'u hitam? Aman hiche chu aman chah a thil ahung lhung ding ho hetna a aneiji ahi; nanghon thilpha loutah na boldoh'u hi talou ham ati.
6 When the steward overtook them, he relayed these words to them.
Insung lhacha pan amaho chu amat tup jouvin hitin aseitai.
7 “Why does my lord say these things?” they asked. “Your servants could not possibly do such a thing.
Amahon amapa koma hi tin aseiuve, “Keima ho hi na soh ka hiuvin, chule keima hon hitobang chu ka bol lou beh ding'u ahi,” ati.
8 We even brought back to you from the land of Canaan the silver we found in the mouths of our sacks. Why would we steal silver or gold from your master’s house?
Ven keiho Canaan gam'a patna sum dangka chu kahin ki choi cheh nauve, chule kadip sung uva ana umho chu ka Pakai pa in na kona kei hon iti dana sum eng chakhon chu ka guh doh thei diu ham atiuve.
9 If any of your servants is found to have it, he must die, and the rest will become slaves of my lord.”
Nasohte lah a koi hijongle ala ana umtah le ama jong chu thidoh maita hen, chule keiho jong ka pakai pa koma soh chang ding kahi tauve.
10 “As you say,” replied the steward. “But only the one who is found with the cup will be my slave, and the rest of you shall be free of blame.”
Hiche chu apha lheh jenge tin ama pan adonbut e, “Hinlah ka chakhon gupa bou chu ka soh a pang ding ahi ati tai, adangho vang imacha kalo louding adangho che tauvin,” ati.
11 So each one quickly lowered his sack to the ground and opened it.
Amahon gangtah in adip hou chu sangan chunga kon in adom lha uvin ahong doh un ahi.
12 The steward searched, beginning with the oldest and ending with the youngest—and the cup was found in Benjamin’s sack.
Hiphat chun insung lhacha pan alenpen apat in aneo pen pa gei in adip sung ahin kholtan ahile sum eng chakhon chu Benjamin dipsunga ahin mudoh tan ahi.
13 Then they all tore their clothes, loaded their donkeys, and returned to the city.
Hichun ama hon a sangkhol'u abot tel tel tauvin, apot hou chu a sangan chunga aheng doh kit un, khopi lam ahin nung jot kit tauve.
14 When Judah and his brothers arrived at Joseph’s house, he was still there, and they fell to the ground before him.
Judah le asopi ho ahung lhun u chun Joseph chu a in na ana umna laiye, chule amaho Joseph masanga tol ah abohkhup tauvin ahi.
15 “What is this deed you have done?” Joseph declared. “Do you not know that a man like me can surely divine the truth?”
Chuin Joseph in amaho jah a aseiyin, “Ipi ham nanghon na bol'u hi? Nang hon na het lou'u ham hitobang mihem ho hi keiman amaho khonung ding kasei thei ahi,” ati.
16 “What can we say to my lord?” Judah replied. “How can we plead? How can we justify ourselves? God has exposed the iniquity of your servants. We are now my lord’s slaves—both we and the one who was found with the cup.”
Hichun Judah in asei tai, “Ipi ka sei dingu hitam? keima ho iti them ka kichan diu hitam Pathen in nasohte chonsetna hohi ahin het dohsah ahi tai. Hijeh chun keiho ka boncha uva sum eng chakhon kimat doh na pa toh ka pakai pa soh a pang ding ka hitauve.
17 But Joseph replied, “Far be it from me to do this. The man who was found with the cup will be my slave. The rest of you may return to your father in peace.”
Hinlah Joseph in adonbut in, “Hiche ho chu keiya kon in kigam lhat maihen, keiman bolda jeng inge, hiche pasal pa ka khon kimu doh na pa bou chu kasoh a pang ding, adang se sevang damsel in napa koma nung che tauvin,” ati.
18 Then Judah approached Joseph and said, “Sir, please let your servant speak personally to my lord. Do not be angry with your servant, for you are equal to Pharaoh himself.
Hichun Judah aphei chen aseitai, “Lungset tah in ka pakai koma nasoh pan thu chang khat tou kasei thei ding ham? lungset tah in nei lunghan khum hih in, nangma Pharaoh toh nalal na lhon jong ki bang ahitan;
19 My lord asked his servants, ‘Do you have a father or a brother?’
Ka pakai pan phat masa chun nasohte ho nei dong uvin, nangma hon sopi nanei juvem ahiloule na pa'u umnalai em natin,
20 And we answered, ‘We have an elderly father and a younger brother, the child of his old age. The boy’s brother is dead. He is the only one of his mother’s sons left, and his father loves him.’
Chuin keima hon ka donbut un, henge ka pakai pa ka tiuvin kapa'u jong adam nalaiye ahin amavang ateh lheh tai ka tiuve, chule achapa aneopen pachu ateh jou nungsanga ahin ahi. Asopipa jong athi tan, amabou chu anu sunga hing doh ahin, hijeh a chu apan jong hatah a angailut ahi,” ati.
21 Then you told your servants, ‘Bring him down to me so that I can see him for myself.’
Nangman thu neina peh jal a amapa chu hinpui un keiman kamit taha kamu nom e natin;
22 So we said to my lord, ‘The boy cannot leave his father. If he were to leave, his father would die.’
Ahin keima hon kana donbut un, ka pakai pa'u chu hiche chapang chun apa adalha thei poi ajeh chu apa thilo thei ahi.
23 But you said to your servants, ‘Unless your younger brother comes down with you, you will not see my face again.’
Ahin nangman thu neina mop kit un, nasopi pa'u alhum pen pa ahung tokah a nanghon kamai namu kitlou dingu ahitai nati.
24 Now when we returned to your servant my father, we relayed your words to him.
Hichun keiho kaki nungle un, na sohpa kapa'u kom lang a ka pakai pa uvin thugah na neisei peh hou chu ama koma ka na lhut tauve.
25 Then our father said, ‘Go back and buy us some food.’
Hichun ka paovin eidonbut un, ‘Keima ho kache thei lou dingu ahi na chapa alhum pen pa ache lou dingle kasopiu alhumpen Benjamin ajao lou le ei kimu pi lou dingu ahi.
26 But we answered, ‘We cannot go down there unless our younger brother goes with us. So if our younger brother is not with us, we cannot see the man.’
27 And your servant my father said to us, ‘You know that my wife bore me two sons.
Hichun nalhacha pa kapa uvin hitin aseiye, nangma hon nahe uvin ka loinu Rachel in cha ni eihin peh in ahi.
28 When one of them was gone, I said: “Surely he has been torn to pieces.” And I have not seen him since.
Chule amani lah a khat pa eida lhatan ahung ki nungle tapon; gamsa hon ahal hal a abotel ding in ginmo aum lheh tan, hiche apatna chun tugei hin kamu kha tapoi ati.
29 Now if you also take this one from me and harm comes to him, you will bring my gray hair down to Sheol in sorrow.’ (Sheol h7585)
Tua amapa asopipa hi na puidoh uva boina hahsat na hintoh le tua kasam kan jouva thina lunghem na nei tosah kit diu ahi,’ ati. (Sheol h7585)
30 So if the boy is not with us when I return to your servant, and if my father, whose life is wrapped up in the boy’s life,
Tun ka pakai keima kapa henga hiche chapang jao lou vin ki nungle thei pong kate ati, ajeh chu kapa'u hinkho le hiche chapang pa hinkho hi aman khom lhon ahiye.
31 sees that the boy is not with us, he will die. Then your servants will have brought the gray hair of your servant our father down to Sheol in sorrow. (Sheol h7585)
Kapan hiche chapang hi amulou le thilo tei ding ahi, nasoh teho hin kapa'u samkan jouva thina kato sah kit dingu ahi tai atiuve. (Sheol h7585)
32 Indeed, your servant guaranteed the boy’s safety to my father, saying, ‘If I do not return him to you, I will bear the guilt before you, my father, all my life.’
Amonga jong na sohpa hi kapa henga hiche chapang khel'a hung kipe doh jenga hitia hi, keiman ama hi naheng kahin nunglhut kit louva ahile nahenga hinkho lhumkei jin themmo chang jeng ing kate, kati ahi.
33 Now please let your servant stay here as my lord’s slave in place of the boy. Let him return with his brothers.
Hijeh chu kapu lungset tah in ahithei dingle hiche chapang khel in keima hi nangma soh din um tang kate, chule ahithei dingle hiche chapang hi a u-teho toh ki nungle tau hen.
34 For how can I go back to my father without the boy? I could not bear to see the misery that would overwhelm him.”
Keima iti kapa koma kaki nungle kit ding ham hiche chapang pa beiya hi ati, kapa in gim genthei athoh ding chu iti kavet jou ding ham ati.
