Exodus 4
1 And Moses answered and said, But behold, they will not believe me, nor hearken unto my voice; for they will say, Jehovah has not appeared to thee.
Hinlah Mose avel'in akiphin kit in, “Eitahsan lel-u henlang kathusei ngai hih uleh iti tantem? 'Nangma heng'a Pakai akilah kha him him poi' tiu leh iti tantem?”
2 And Jehovah said to him, What is that in thy hand? And he said, A staff.
Chuin Pakaiyin ajah a, “Nakhut a nachoi chu ipi ham?” tia adoh le, Mosen a donbut in “Tenggol ahi,” ati.
3 And he said, Cast it on the ground. And he cast it on the ground, and it became a serpent; and Moses fled from before it.
Pakaiyin ajah a, “Tol'ah seplhan,” ati. Hichun Mosen tenggol chu tol'ah asep lhan, chuin gul ahung kisoh tan! Mose anung chop jeng'in ahi.
4 And Jehovah said to Moses, Stretch out thy hand and take it by the tail — and he stretched out his hand and caught it, and it became a staff in his hand —
Chuin Pakaiyin aheng'a, “nakhut lhangdoh in lang ameiyin man tem'in” ati. Hichun Mosen akhut alhangdoh in aman in ahile, akhut ah kelngoi chinna tenggol ahung kinung soh doh kit tan ahi.
5 that they may believe that Jehovah, the God of their fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, hath appeared unto thee.
Pakaiyin ajah-a, “Hiche melchih nahi nabol ding ahi. Chuteng apu apateu Pathen - Abraham Pathen, Isaac Pathen chuleh Jacob Pathen chu nangma heng'ah akilah mong'e ti ahin tahsan dingu ahi,” ati.
6 And Jehovah said moreover to him, Put now thy hand into thy bosom. And he put his hand into his bosom, and took it out, and behold, his hand was leprous, as snow.
Chuin Pakaiyin Mose heng'ah, “Tunna khut chu na pon ah sung nadip a koiyin,” atile, Mose'n jong akhut chu apon ah sung adip a akoiyin, akhut chu alah doh kit a ahile, akhut chu avun aphah in buhbang bangin abang jeng'in ahi.
7 And he said, Put thy hand into thy bosom again. And he put his hand into his bosom again, and took it out of his bosom, and behold, it was turned again as his flesh.
Pakaiyin, “Tun nakhut chu napon ah sung nadip'a avel'in koikit tem in,” atin ahi. Hijeh chun Mose in jong akhut chu anung koilut kit in, chuin ala doh kit in ahile atidang bang'in atahsa adamsel tan ahi.
8 And it shall come to pass, if they will not believe thee, neither hearken to the voice of the first sign, that they will believe the voice of the other sign.
Pakaiyin Mose heng'a asei jin, “ijem tia nangma natahsan lou uva chule melchih na masapen jeng'a jong atahsan theilou uva ahile, melchina anichanna a atahsan diu ahi tai.
9 And it shall come to pass, if they will not believe also those two signs, neither hearken unto thy voice, that thou shalt take of the water of the river, and pour [it] on the dry [land]; and the water that thou takest out of the river shall become blood upon the dry [land].
Chule hiche melchih na teni jeng'a jong atahsan thei lou'uva ahile, Nile Vadunga kon in twi themkhat la in lang tolgo laiya sung lhan. Hichu nabol teng, Nile Vadung twi chu tolgo laiya thisan kisoh ding ahi,” ati.
10 And Moses said to Jehovah, Ah Lord! I am not eloquent, neither heretofore nor since thou hast spoken to thy servant, for I am slow of speech and of a slow tongue.
Ahin Mose Pakai heng'a ataovin, “O Pakai, keima thusei them kahipoi. Achesa phat hihen, chule tujeng in jong, kahenga thu nasei nung hijong leh, ka lei a-oh jin, chule kathusei a-ngongkai jie,” ati.
11 And Jehovah said to him, Who gave man a mouth? or who maketh dumb, or deaf, or seeing, or blind? [have] not I, Jehovah?
Hichun Pakaiyin Mose adong paijin, “Koiham mihem kam sem? Koi ham mihem apaothei ahilou leh apaomo, kho jathei ahilou leh ana ngong, kho muthei ahilou leh micho umsah nadia gellhuh na sem ji? Hichu Keima, na Pakai kahi hilou ham?
12 And now go, and I will be with thy mouth, and will teach thee what thou shalt say.
Tun chen! napao doh na chan'a Ka umpi ding, chule na thusei na chan'a Keiman kalamhil ding nahi,” ati.
13 And he said, Ah Lord! send, I pray thee, by the hand [of him whom] thou wilt send.
Ahinlah Mose avel in Pakai heng'a ataovin, “Pakai, lungset tah in! midang khattou sol tan,” ati.
14 Then the anger of Jehovah was kindled against Moses, and he said, Is not Aaron the Levite thy brother? I know that he can speak well. And also behold, he goeth out to meet thee; and when he seeth thee he will be glad in his heart.
Chuin Pakai Mose chung'a alung hang tan, “Aphai,” ati. “Na sopipa Levi mi Aaron um'a hilou ham? Aman lei kileh pel'in thu aseitheiye ti keiman kahei. Chule vetan! Tun nang toh kimuto ding in ahung tai. Nang toh kimu ding lung thanop na'a dim ahi,” ati.
15 And thou shalt speak unto him, and put the words in his mouth; and I will be with thy mouth, and with his mouth, and will teach you what ye shall do.
Ama chu houlim pin lang, thuho hi akamsung'a mop in. Keiman napao doh na chan lhon'a ka umpi ding, na ni lhon'a nathilbol nachan lhon'a nalamhil lhon nang'e, ati.
16 And he shall speak for thee unto the people; and it shall come to pass that he shall be to thee for a mouth, and thou shalt be to him for God.
“Aaron hi nangma ding'a miho lah a thuseija pang ding ahi. Nangma ding'a nakam sung'a pang ding chule ama ding'a nangma hi Pathen khel'a na din ding, aman ipi asei ding nahil ding ahi,” ati.
17 And thou shalt take this staff in thy hand, with which thou shalt do the signs.
Na kelngoi tenggol hi kichoiyin lang, melchih na bol ding'a ka thumop chengse bol nading'in mang chan,” ati.
18 And Moses went and returned to Jethro his father-in-law, and said to him, Let me go, I pray thee, and return to my brethren who are in Egypt, that I may see whether they are yet alive. And Jethro said to Moses, Go in peace.
Hijeh chun Mose in lam anu-pa-pa Jethro heng lam'a akile tan ahi. “Lungset tah in kasopi ho heng lam Egypt gam'a kile tange,” tin Mosen aseiyin, “Hing nalaiyu hinauvam tijong hepha lou kahi,” ati in ahile, Jethro in “lungmong in chen,” tin adonbut in ahi.
19 And Jehovah said to Moses in Midian, Go, return to Egypt; for all the men are dead who sought thy life.
Mose in Median adalhah masang'in Pakaiyin aheng'a aseiyin, “Egypt a kile tan, ijeh-inem itileh nangma nathat nom ho abonchauvin athi gam tauve,” ati.
20 And Moses took his wife and his sons, and set them riding upon an ass, and he returned to the land of Egypt. And Moses took the staff of God in his hand.
Hijeh chun Mose in ajinu leh achate akipuiyin, sangan chunga atousah in, chuin Egypt gam'a akile tauvin ahi. Akhut a Pathen tenggol chu achoiyin ahi.
21 And Jehovah said to Moses, When thou goest to return to Egypt, see that thou do all the wonders before Pharaoh that I have put in thy hand. And I will harden his heart, that he shall not let the people go.
Pakaiyin Mose heng'a aseiyin, “Egypt gamsung nalelhun teng, Pharaoh henga chen lang keiman bol ding'a thuneina kapeh bang'in thil kidang ho jouse abonchan gabol'in, ati. Ahinlah Keiman alungthim kasuh tah ding chuteng miho chedoh ding aphal lou ding ahi.”
22 And thou shalt say to Pharaoh, Thus saith Jehovah: Israel is my son, my firstborn.
“Chuteng nangman aheng'a nasei ding, “Hiche hi Pakai thusei ahiye: Israel hi keima chapa peng masapen ahi.”
23 And I say to thee, Let my son go, that he may serve me. And if thou refuse to let him go, behold, I will kill thy son, thy firstborn.
Keiman thu kapeh nahi, “Ka chapa soldoh tan, chuti leh aman keima eihou thei ding ahi.”'Ahivanga nangman nah sah louva na koi jeh in, tua hi keiman nang chapa amasapen katha ding ahi tai!”' ati.
24 And it came to pass on the way, in the inn, that Jehovah came upon him, and sought to slay him.
Egypt gam ajot laiyun Mose leh a insung mite jan geh din ngahmun khat'a akinga tauvin, Pakaiyin amapa chu akimaitopin, amapa chu atha pai ding ahitai.
25 Then Zipporah took a stone and cut off the foreskin of her son, and cast it at his feet, and said, A bloody husband indeed art thou to me!
Amavang Mose jinu Zipporah, in songiel chem alan achapa chep atan peh in ahi. Amanun chep chu amapa keng atohkhah sah in hiti hin aseiye, “Tua hi nangma hiche thisan jal'a kei dia moulang nahitai,” ati.
26 And he let him go. Then she said, A bloody husband — because of the circumcision.
(Amanun “thisan jal'a moulang” tia asei chu chep tan chu aseina ahi.) Chujou chun Pakaiyin amapa chu adalhatai.
27 And Jehovah said to Aaron, Go into the wilderness to meet Moses. And he went, and met him on the mountain of God, and kissed him.
Tun Pakaiyin Aaron henga, “Mose kimupi din Gamthip lam'a khun chedoh in,” ati. Hijeh chun Aaron Pathen molsang lam'a achen Mose aga kimupi in, a angkoiyin ahi.
28 And Moses told Aaron all the words of Jehovah who had sent him, and all the signs that he had commanded him.
Hichun Mose in jong Aaron jah a Pakaiyin sei dinga athupeh jouse ajah a asei peh tan ahi. Chule bol dinga athupeh thil kidang melchih naho chung chang ho chu aseipeh tan ahi.
29 And Moses and Aaron went and gathered all the elders of the children of Israel;
Chuin Mose le Aaron Egypt gam ahung kile lhon'in Israel upa jouse abonchan akoukhom lhon tan ahi.
30 and Aaron spoke all the words that Jehovah had spoken to Moses, and did the signs before the eyes of the people.
Aaron in Pakaiyin Mose athumop chengse chu abonchan amaho jah a aseipeh soh keiyin, Chule Mose in melchihna thil kidang hochu aheng uvah abol in avetsah soh kei uve.
31 And the people believed. And when they heard that Jehovah had visited the children of Israel, and that he had seen their affliction, then they bowed their heads and worshipped.
Hichun Israel miten Mose leh Aaron chu Pathen in ahin sol mong ahi ti atahsan tauve. Pakaiyin amaho chung chang agelkhoh in agim hesoh nau amu taiti ajahdoh phat un, abohkhup uvin ahou tauvin ahi.
