Exodus 5
1 And afterwards Moses and Aaron went in, and said to Pharaoh, Thus saith Jehovah, the God of Israel, Let my people go that they may celebrate 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 Pharaoh said, Who is Jehovah, to whose voice I am to hearken to let Israel go? I do not know Jehovah, neither will I 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 said, The God of the Hebrews has met with us: let us go, we pray thee, three days' journey into the wilderness, and sacrifice to Jehovah our God; lest he fall upon us with pestilence or with sword.
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, wish to have the people go off from their works? Away, to your burdens!
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 Pharaoh said, Behold the people of the land are now many, and ye wish to make them rest from their burdens.
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 Pharaoh commanded the same day the taskmasters of the people, and their officers, saying,
Hote hnin dawk, Faro ni thaw kakuennaw hoi kauknaw a kaw teh,
7 Ye shall no more give the people straw to make brick, as heretofore: let them go and gather 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 the number of the bricks they have made heretofore shall ye lay upon them: ye shall not diminish any of it, for they are idle; therefore they cry, saying, Let us go [and] 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 them put heavier labour on the men, that they may be taken up with it, and not regard vain words.
Hatdawkvah, thaw nget ka tawn lah a tawk sak awh. Tami kahawihoehe lawk ngâi a hanh telah atipouh.
10 And the taskmasters of the people and their officers went out and spoke to the people, saying, Thus says Pharaoh: I will not give you straw:
Hahoi thaw kakuennaw ni a cei awh teh Faro siangpahrang ni cakawng na poe hoeh.
11 go ye, get yourselves straw where ye may find it; but none of your work shall be diminished.
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 And the people were scattered abroad throughout 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 urged [them], saying, Fulfil your labours, the daily work, as when there was straw.
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 officers of the children of Israel, whom Pharaoh's taskmasters had set over them, were beaten, [and] it was said, Why have ye not fulfilled your task in making brick, both yesterday and to-day, as heretofore?
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 Then the officers of the children of Israel came and cried to Pharaoh, saying, Why dost thou deal thus with thy bondmen?
Hat navah, Isarel kahrawikungnaw ni Faro siangpahrang koe a cei awh teh, bangkongmaw nang ni na sannaw hettelah na sak.
16 There is no straw given to thy bondmen, and they say to us, Make brick; and behold, thy bondmen are beaten, but it is the fault of 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, Ye are idle, idle! therefore ye say, Let us go and sacrifice to Jehovah.
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 And now go — work! and straw shall not be given you, and ye shall deliver the measure 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 officers of the children of Israel saw [that] it stood ill with them, because it was said, Ye shall not diminish anything from your bricks, the daily work.
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, who stood there to meet them, as they came out from Pharaoh.
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, Jehovah look upon you and judge, that ye have made our odour to stink in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of his bondmen, putting a sword into their hand to kill 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 returned to Jehovah, and said, Lord, why hast thou done evil to this people? why now 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 ever since I came to Pharaoh to speak in thy name, he hath done evil to this people; neither hast thou delivered thy people at all!
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.
