Exodus 5
1 And after this went in Moses and Aaron to Pharao, and they said to him, These things says the Lord God of Israel, Send my people away, that they may keep a feast to me in the wilderness.
Hathnukkhu, Mosi hoi Aron ni Faro siangpahrang koe a kâen teh Isarelnaw e BAWIPA Cathut ni ka taminaw teh kahrawng vah kai hane pawito hanlah patoun telah ati, atipouh.
2 And Pharao said, Who is he that I should hearken to his voice, so that I should send away the children of Israel? I do not know the Lord, and I will not let Israel go.
Faro siangpahrang ni hai BAWIPA lawk a ngâi teh Isarelnaw ka ceisak nahanlah hote Cathut teh apimaw. BAWIPA tie ka panuek hoeh. Isarelnaw ka cetsak mahoeh telah ati.
3 And they say to him, The God of the Hebrews has called us to him: we will go therefore a three days' journey into the wilderness, that we may sacrifice to the Lord our God, lest at any time death or slaughter happen to us.
Ahnimouh roi ni hai Hebrunaw e Cathut teh kaimouh hoi kâhmo awh toe. Thingyeiyawn hnin thum lamcei koe, kaimae BAWIPA Cathut bawk nahan kâ na poe haw. Nahoeh pawiteh lacik, kâtheikârawngnae hoi maimouh na rek han telah atipouh.
4 And the king of Egypt said to them, Why do ye, Moses and Aaron, turn the people from their works? depart each of you to your works.
Izip siangpahrang ni hai Mosi hoi Aron, nangmouh roi ni hete taminaw bangkongmaw thaw na pakak roi. Thaw koe cet nateh thaw tawk awh, atipouh.
5 And Pharao said, Behold now, the people is very numerous; let us not then give them rest from their work.
Hahoi, ram dawk hote taminaw moiapap awh. Thaw tawk hoeh hanlah nangmouh ni kâ na poe bo aw telah Faro siangpahrang ni ati.
6 And Pharao gave orders to the task-masters of the people and the accountants, saying,
Hote hnin dawk, Faro ni thaw kakuennaw hoi kauknaw a kaw teh,
7 Ye shall no longer give straw to the people for brick-making as yesterday and the third day; but let them go themselves, and collect straw for themselves.
Amhru sak nahane cakawng hmaloe e patetlah taminaw poe awh hanh. Ahnimouh ni cakawng hah amamouh hanlah tawng awh naseh.
8 And thou shalt impose on them daily the rate of brick-making which they perform: thou shalt not abate anything, for they are idle; therefore have they cried, saying, Let us arise and do sacrifice to our God.
Amhru teh hmaloe e yit touh na saksak han. Payoun sak hanh. Ahnimouh teh a pangak awh dawkvah, cei awh vaiteh maimae Cathut thuengnae ka sak awh han telah ouk a hram awh.
9 Let the works of these men be made grievous, and let them care for these things, and not care for vain words.
Hatdawkvah, thaw nget ka tawn lah a tawk sak awh. Tami kahawihoehe lawk ngâi a hanh telah atipouh.
10 And the taskmasters and the accountants hastened them, and they spoke to the people, saying, thus says Pharao, I [will] give you straw no longer.
Hahoi thaw kakuennaw ni a cei awh teh Faro siangpahrang ni cakawng na poe hoeh.
11 Go ye, yourselves, get for yourselves straw whencesoever ye can find it, for nothing is diminished from your rate.
Cakawng hah hmu thainae hmuen koe tawng awh. Hateiteh, na tawk hane thaw teh payoun mahoeh telah kâlawk ao telah taminaw a thaisak awh.
12 So the people were dispersed in all the land of Egypt, to gather stubble for straw.
Hatdawkvah, taminaw ni cakawng hanlah songnawng tawng hanelah Izip ram pueng dawk a kâkapek awh.
13 and the taskmasters hastened them, saying, Fulfil your regular daily tasks, even as when straw was given you.
Kauknaw ni hai cakawng hmuthainae a tue nah hnintangkuem a tawk awh e patetlah cum totouh tawk awh telah ahnimouh a hroecoe awh.
14 And the accountants of the race of the children of Israel, who were set over them by the masters of Pharao, were scourged, [[and questioned, ] men] saying, Why have ye not fulfilled your rates of brick-work as yesterday and the third day, to-day also?
Faro siangpahrang e kaukkungnaw ni a rawi e Isarel kahrawikungnaw hah nangmouh ni hmaloe na tawk a e patetlah bangkongmaw paduem hoi sahnin amhru sak e na cum sak awh hoeh telah atipouh teh a hemkhai awh.
15 And the accountants of the children of Israel went in and cried to Pharao, saying, Why dost thou act thus to thy servants?
Hat navah, Isarel kahrawikungnaw ni Faro siangpahrang koe a cei awh teh, bangkongmaw nang ni na sannaw hettelah na sak.
16 Straw is not given to thy servants, and they tell us to make brick; and behold thy servants have been scourged: thou wilt therefore injure thy people.
Na sannaw heh cakawng na poe hoeh. Kaukkungnaw ni hai amhru sak awh, telah ati awh teh kaimouh na hem awh. Na taminaw koe yonnae ao telah a hram awh.
17 And he said to them, Ye are idle, ye are idlers: therefore ye say, Let us go [and] do sacrifice to our God.
Faro siangpahrang ni hai nangmouh teh na pangak awh. Na pangak awh. Hatdawkvah, kaimouh ka cei vaiteh BAWIPA thuengnae ka sak awh han telah nangmouh ni na ti awh.
18 Now then go and work, for straw shall not be given to you, yet ye shall return the rate of bricks.
Hatdawkvah, atu cet awh nateh tawk awh. Cakawng na poe awh mahoeh. Hateiteh, amhru teh ama mingming lah pou na sak awh han telah atipouh.
19 And the accountants of the children of Israel saw themselves in an evil plight, [men] saying, Ye shall not fail to deliver the daily rate of the brick-making.
Hottelah, hnintangkuem a sak e amhru teh na payoun awh mahoeh telah kâ ao dawkvah Isarel kahrawikungnaw ni runae kâhmo awh toe tie a kâpanue awh.
20 And they met Moses and Aaron coming forth to meet them, as they came forth from Pharao.
Faro siangpahrang koehoi a cei awh navah lam vah ahnimouh ka ring e Mosi hoi Aron a hmu awh navah,
21 And they said to them, The Lord look upon you and judge you, for ye have made our savour abominable before Pharao, and before his servants, to put a sword into his hands to slay us.
BAWIPA ni nangmouh roi na khet teh lawk na ceng naseh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Faro siangpahrang hoi a thaw katawknaw ni kaimouh na panuet sak han hoi thei sak hanlah nangmouh roi ni na sak toe telah atipouh awh.
22 And Moses turned to the Lord, and said, I pray, Lord, why hast thou afflicted this people? and wherefore hast thou sent me?
Mosi ni hai BAWIPA koe a cei teh, Oe Cathut, nang ni hete taminaw hah bangkongmaw na rektap. Bangkong kai hah na patoun.
23 For from the time that I went to Pharao to speak in thy name, he has afflicted this people, and thou hast not delivered thy people.
Kai ni nange kâ lahoi ka dei nahanlah Faro siangpahrang koe kâen hnin hoi kamtawng teh, ahni ni hete taminaw thoe a bo. Nang ni na taminaw khoeroe na rungngang hoeh telah atipouh.
