Exodus 6

1 And the Lord said to Moses, Now you will see what I am about to do to Pharaoh; for by a strong hand he will be forced to let them go, driving them out of his land because of my outstretched arm.

BOEIPA loh Moses te, “Pharaoh taengah ka saii ham te na hmuh pawn ni. Tlungluen kut he amih taengah a tueih vetih tlungluen kut loh amih te a khohmuen lamloh a haek ni,” a ti nah.

2 And God said to Moses, I am Yahweh:

Pathen loh Moses te a voek bal tih a taengah, “Kai tah Yahweh ni.

3 I let myself be seen by Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, as God, the Ruler of all; but they had no knowledge of my name Yahweh.

Abraham taengah, Isaak taeng neh Jakob taengah Tlungthang Pathen la ka phoe coeng dae ka ming te amih taengah Yahweh la ka ming sak moenih.

4 And I made an agreement with them, to give them the land of Canaan, the land of their wanderings.

Te dongah Kanaan khohmuen te amih taengah paek hamla amih taengah ka paipi te ka thoh bal. A khuiah ana bakuep nah te a lampahnah khohmuen ni.

5 And truly my ears are open to the cry of the children of Israel whom the Egyptians keep under their yoke; and I have kept in mind my agreement.

Kai loh Israel ca rhoek kah nguekcoinah te khaw ka yaak coeng. Egypt loh amih thohtat sak cakhaw ka paipi te ka poek.

6 Say then to the children of Israel, I am Yahweh, and I will take you out from under the yoke of the Egyptians, and make you safe from their power, and will make you free by the strength of my arm after great punishments.

Te dongah Israel ca rhoek te thui pah. Kai BOEIPA loh nangmih te Egypt bitloh hmui lamkah kan loh vetih amih kah thohtatnah lamloh nangmih te kang huul ni. Nangmih te ban ka yueng vetih tholhphu tanglue neh kan tlan ni.

7 And I will take you to be my people and I will be your God; and you will be certain that I am the Lord your God, who takes you out from under the yoke of the Egyptians.

Nangmih te kamah taengah pilnam la kan loh vetih nangmih taengah Pathen la ka om ni. Te vaengah Egypt bitloh hmui lamloh nangmih aka khuen BOEIPA na Pathen kamah he nan ming uh bitni.

8 And I will be your guide into the land which I made an oath to give to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob; and I will give it to you for your heritage: I am Yahweh.

Nangmih khaw te khohmuen la kang khuen ni. Te te paek ham ni ka kut he Abraham taeng neh Isaak taeng neh Jakob taengah ka thueng. Te dongah te te BOEIPA kamah loh khoh la nangmih taengah kam paek ni,” a ti nah.

9 And Moses said these words to the children of Israel, but they gave no attention to him, because of the grief of their spirit and the cruel weight of their work.

Moses loh Israel loh ca rhoek taengah a thui dae mangkhak la thohtatnah neh mueihla kobawtnah dongah Moses ol te hnatun uh pawh.

10 And the Lord said to Moses,

Te vaengah BOEIPA loh Moses te a voek tih,

11 Go in and say to Pharaoh, king of Egypt, that he is to let the children of Israel go out of his land.

Paan lamtah Egypt manghai Pharaoh te thui, Israel ca rhoek te a khohmuen lamloh hlah laeh saeh,” a ti nah.

12 And Moses, answering the Lord, said, See, the children of Israel will not give ear to me; how then will Pharaoh give ear to me, whose lips are unclean?

Tedae Moses loh BOEIPA mikhmuh ah rhep a thui tih, “Israel ca rhoek long pataeng kai ol he a hnatun uh moenih he. Te dongah kai tah ka hmuilai aka ngun he Pharaoh loh metlam kai ol a hnatun eh?” a ti nah.

13 And the word of the Lord came to Moses and Aaron, with orders for the children of Israel and for Pharaoh, king of Egypt, to take the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt.

Te phoeiah BOEIPA loh Moses neh Aaron te a voek tih Israel ca kawng neh Egypt manghai Pharaoh kawng khaw, Egypt khohmuen lamloh Israel ca rhoek a khuen ham te khaw a uen.

20 And Amram took Jochebed, his father's sister, as wife; and she gave birth to Aaron and Moses: and the years of Amram's life were a hundred and thirty-seven.

Amram loh a napi Jokhebed te a yuu la a loh tih Aaron neh Moses a cun pah. Amram a hingnah kum he kum ya sawmthum kum rhih lo.

21 And the sons of Izhar: Korah and Nepheg and Zichri.

Izhar koca ah Korah, Nepheg neh Zikhri.

22 And the sons of Uzziel: Mishael and Elzaphan and Sithri.

23 And Aaron took as his wife Elisheba, the daughter of Amminadab, the sister of Nahshon; and she gave birth to Nadab and Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar.

Aaron loh Amminadab canu, Nahshon ngannu Elisheba te a yuu la a loh tih Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar neh Ithamar a sak pah.

Aaron capa Eleazar loh Putiel nu te a yuu la a loh tih Phinekha te a sak. Te rhoek te amah huiko ah Levi napa kah patuel la om.

26 These are the same Aaron and Moses to whom the Lord said, Take the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt in their armies.

BOEIPA loh Aaron neh Moses te, “Israel ca rhoek te Egypt kho lamloh a caempuei la khuen laeh,” a ti nah.

27 These are the men who gave orders to Pharaoh to let the children of Israel go out of Egypt: these are the same Moses and Aaron.

Israel ca te Egypt lamloh khuen ham Egypt manghai Pharaoh taengah aka thui khaw amih rhoi Moses neh Aaron ni.

28 And on the day when the word of the Lord came to Moses in the land of Egypt,

BOEIPA loh Moses a voek hnin ah Egypt kho ah om coeng.

29 The Lord said to Moses, I am the Lord: say to Pharaoh, king of Egypt, everything I am saying to you.

Te vaengah BOEIPA loh Moses te a voek tih, “Kai tah Yahweh ni, kai loh nang taengah ka thui boeih te Egypt manghai Pharaoh taengah thui pah,” a ti nah.

30 And Moses said to the Lord, My lips are unclean; how is it possible that Pharaoh will give me a hearing?

Tedae Moses loh BOEIPA mikhmuh ah, “Kai hmuilai aka ngun he Pharaoh loh kai ol te metlam a hnatun pai eh?,” a ti.
