Exodus 19
1 In the third month after the departure of the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt, the same day came they [into] the wilderness of Sinai:
Israel carhoek Egypt kho lamloha nong phoeikah hla thum dongahaom khohnin ah Sinai khosoek la pawk uh.
2 they departed from Rephidim, and came [into] the wilderness of Sinai, and encamped in the wilderness; and Israel encamped there before the mountain.
Te phoeiah Rephidim lamloh hlah uh tih Sinai khosoek la pawk uh. Khosoek kaha rhaeh uh vaengah Israel tah tlang danah pahoi rhaeh.
3 And Moses went up to God, and Jehovah called to him out of the mountain, saying, Thus shalt thou say to the house of Jacob, and tell the children of Israel:
Te vaengah Moses tah Pathen taengla cet. Te dongah BOEIPA loh anih te tlang lamloha khue tih, “He he Jakob imkhui te thui pah lamtah Israel ca taengah puen pah.
4 Ye have seen what I have done to the Egyptians, and [how] I have borne you on eagles' wings and brought you to myself.
Egypt taengah ka saii te na hmuh uh coeng. Nangmih te atha phae dongah kam phueih tih kamah taengla nangmih kang khuen.
5 And now, if ye will hearken to my voice indeed and keep my covenant, then shall ye be my own possession out of all the peoples — for all the earth is mine —
Te dongah ka ol hena ngai rhoe na ngai tih ka paipina tuem atah pilnam cungkuemkhui lamloh kamah taengah lungthen la na om uh ni. Diklai pum khaw kamah kah ni.
6 and ye shall be to me a kingdom of priests, and a holy nation. These are the words which thou shalt speak to the children of Israel.
Te phoeiah nangmihte kamah taengah khosoih ram neh hlangcim namtu la na om uh ni. He ol he Israel ca taengah thui pah,” a ti nah.
7 And Moses came and called the elders of the people, and laid before them all these words which Jehovah had commanded him.
Te phoeiah Moseste mael tih pilnam kah a hamcarhoek tea khue. Te vaengah BOEIPA loh amah ola uen boeih te amih mikhmuh aha phoe pah.
8 And all the people answered together, and said, All that Jehovah has spoken will we do! And Moses brought the words of the people back to Jehovah.
Te vaengah pilnam pum loh hueka doo tih, “BOEIPA kah a thui te boeih ka saii uh ni,” a ti uh. Te dongah Moses loh pilnam kah ol te BOEIPA taenglaa mael puei.
9 And Jehovah said to Moses, Lo, I will come to thee in the cloud's thick darkness, that the people may hear when I speak with thee, and believe thee also for ever. And Moses told the words of the people to Jehovah.
Te phoeiah BOEIPA loh Moses taengah, “Kai tah nangmih taengah cingmai khomai neh ka pawk coeng he. He kong nen ni kai neh nang m'voek uh vaengah pilnamloh a yaak eh. Te vaengah nang soah khaw kumhal duela n'tangnah uh bitni,” a ti nah. Te vaengah Moses loh pilnam kah ol te BOEIPA taenglaa puen pah.
10 And Jehovah said to Moses, Go to the people, and hallow them to-day and to-morrow, and let them wash their clothes;
Te phoeiah BOEIPA loh Moses te, “Pilnam taengah cet lamtah tihnin neh thangvuenah amihte ciim lamtah a himbaite til uh saeh.
11 and let them be ready for the third day; for on the third day Jehovah will come down before the eyes of all the people on mount Sinai.
A thum khohnin ah tah sikim la om uh saeh. A thum hnin ah BOEIPA tah pilnam pum mikhmuh ah Sinai tlang la ha rhum ni.
12 And set bounds round about the people, saying, Take heed to yourselves, [not] to go up unto the mountain nor touch the border of it: whatever toucheth the mountain shall certainly be put to death:
Pilnam tea kaepvai ah rhi suem pah lamtah, “Nangmih te tlang la luei neh a rhi te ben ham khaw ngaithuen uh, tlang aka ben boeih tah duek rhoe duek ni.
13 not a hand shall touch it, but it shall certainly be stoned, or shot through; whether it be a beast or a man, it shall not live. When the long drawn note of the trumpet soundeth, they shall come up to the mountain.
A soah kut loh taek boel saeh. Tedae dae la dae saeh lamtah kap khaw kap saeh. Jubileelaa sol vaengah tlang la aka cet te tah rhamsa khaw hlang khaw hing boel saeh,’ ti nah,” a ti nah.
14 And Moses came down from the mountain to the people, and hallowed the people; and they washed their clothes.
Te dongah Moseste tlang lamloh pilnam taengla suntla tih pilnam tea ciim phoeiah a himbai te a til uh.
15 And he said to the people, Be ready for the third day; do not come near [your] wives.
Te vaengah pilnam te, “A thum hnin ah sikim la om uh lamtah huta taengla mop uh boeh,” a ti nah.
16 And it came to pass on the third day, when it was morning, that there were thunders and lightnings and a heavy cloud on the mountain, and the sound of the trumpet exceeding loud; and the whole people that was in the camp trembled.
A thum hnin kah mincanga pha tangloeng vaengah rhaek ol neh cingmaia thah loh tlang soah om. Te vaengah tuki olte bahoeng tlungluen tih rhaehhmuen kah pilnam khaw boeih lakueng.
17 And Moses brought the people out of the camp to meet with God; and they stood at the foot of the mountain.
Pathen doe ham Moses loh pilnam te rhaehhmuen lamkaha khuen tih tlang yung ah pai uh.
18 And the whole of mount Sinai smoked, because Jehovah descended on it in fire; and its smoke ascended as the smoke of a furnace; and the whole mountain shook greatly.
BOEIPAte hmai neha rhum dongah Sinai tlang khaw a pum la khuu. A hmaikhute hmailing hmaikhu bangla luei tih tlanga pum la muep lakueng.
19 And the sound of the trumpet increased and became exceeding loud; Moses spoke, and God answered him by a voice.
Tuki ol khaw ha thoeih tih bahoeng len. Mosesloh a voek vaengah Pathenloh a ol neha doo.
20 And Jehovah came down on mount Sinai, on the top of the mountain; and Jehovah called Moses to the top of the mountain, and Moses went up.
Te vaengah BOEIPA tah Sinai tlang kah tlang soi la ha rhum. Te phoeiah BOEIPA loh Moses te tlang soi laa khue tih Moses khaw cet hang.
21 And Jehovah said to Moses, Go down, testify to the people that they break not through to Jehovah to gaze, and many of them perish.
Tedae BOEIPA loh Moses te, “Suntla lamtah pilnam te rhalrhing sak, BOEIPA hmuh ham koengloeng uh vetih amih te cungku uh khungdaeng ve.
22 And the priests also, who come near to Jehovah, shall hallow themselves, lest Jehovah break forth on them.
Khosoihrhoek pataeng khaw BOEIPA taengla aka moprhoek ciim uh saeh. Amih taengah BOEIPA pung ve,” a ti nah.
23 And Moses said to Jehovah, The people cannot come up to mount Sinai; for thou hast testified to us, saying, Set bounds about the mountain, and hallow it.
Te phoeiah Moses loh BOEIPA taengah, “Namah loh kai hena rhalrhing sak tih, 'Tlang te suem lamtah ciim laeh,” na ti coeng dongah Sinai tlang la pilnama yoeng hama coeng moenih,” a ti nah.
24 And Jehovah said to him, Go, descend, and thou shalt come up, thou, and Aaron with thee; but the priests and the people shall not break through to go up to Jehovah, lest he break forth on them.
Te dongah BOEIPA loh amah te, “Cet laeh, suntla lamtah namah khaw Aaron khaw namah neh ha puei uh. Tedae khosoihrhoek neh pilnam tah BOEIPA taengla caeh ham koengloeng uh boel saeh. Amih taengah pung ve,” a ti nah.
25 So Moses went down to the people, and told them.
Moseste pilnam taengla suntla tangloeng tih amih tea thui pah.
