Genesis 42
1 And Jacob saw that there was grain in Egypt, and Jacob said to his sons, Why do ye look one upon another?
Hichun Egypt ma anneh anendan chu Jacob in ahe tan, achate jah a asei tai, “Ibola na din chet chut uva kiveto nahiu ham?
2 And he said, Behold, I have heard that there is grain in Egypt; go down thither and buy [grain] for us from thence, in order that we may live, and not die.
Keiman thusoh kajan Egypt gam lama chang aum e, hijeh chun nangho cheuvin lang neh ding gacho tauvin, eima ho ikihinso thei nadingu vin,” ati.
3 And Joseph's ten brethren went down to buy [grain] out of Egypt.
Hichun Joseph sopite ho mi som neh cho ding in Egypt lama asuh chetauvin ahi.
4 But Benjamin, Joseph's brother, Jacob sent not with his brethren; for he said, Lest mischief may befall him.
Hinlah Jacob in vang Joseph sopipa Benjamin chu amaho lah a asol tapoi, aman aseiyin, “Keima katiya lheh tai ajole kisuh khah na le boina toh khante,” ati.
5 So the sons of Israel came to buy [grain] among those that came; for the famine was in the land of Canaan.
Canaan gam kel hah aum tah jeh chun Israel (Jacob) chate chu Egypt lama anneh hol din mijouse toh ahung lhung khom tauve.
6 And Joseph, he was the governor over the land — he it was that sold [the corn] to all the people of the land. And Joseph's brethren came and bowed down to him, the face to the earth.
Tua hi Joseph chu Egypt gam'a chu gam vaihom ahitan, chule chang john a dinga thanei na jouse Joseph kipe ahi tan, hiche pettah chun asopite ahung lhung tauvin, amaho ahung lhun lhun un, hikoma chun tol'a ama ho abohkhup un akunsoh tauve.
7 And Joseph saw his brethren, and knew them; but he made himself strange to them, and spoke roughly to them, and said to them, Whence come ye? And they said, From the land of Canaan, to buy food.
Joseph'in asopite chu amuphat in abonchauvin ahe soh keiyin, ahi vang in amaho chu hetphah lou bol in, hutot tah-in ahouvin, chule ajah uva, “Hoiya kona hung na hiuvem ong?” atile amahon jong “Canaan gam'a kon kahiuvin, puhsui dinga hung kahiuve,” atiuvin ahi.
8 And Joseph knew his brethren, but they did not know him.
Joseph in asopiho chu ahet vang'in amahon ahe doh jou pouve.
9 And Joseph remembered the dreams that he had dreamt of them; and he said to them, Ye are spies: to see the exposed places of the land ye are come.
Hichun Joseph in kum tamtah masang a asopi ho mang ana mat ho chu ahin geldoh in asopi ho koma hitin aseiye, “Nangho hi mipha lou le migucha nahiuve, keima ho gam hi lah mangthei ham ahiloule akihongbit joupouve, tia neihung khol leu ahi,” ati.
10 And they said to him, No, my lord; but to buy food are thy servants come.
Ahipoi ka Pakai tin ama hon a donbut uvin, “Nasoh teho hi puhsui anneh hol a choh ding joh ka hi bouve.
11 We are all one man's sons; we are honest: thy servants are not spies.
Keiho jouse hi pa khat a hung peng cheh kahi bouve, milung theng ka hiuve, nasoh hohi miphalou kahi pouve!”
12 And he said to them, No; but to see the exposed places of the land are ye come.
Ahin Joseph in a sei kit leuvin, “Ahipoi nangho hi ka gam'u hi gam ong kivaipoh achavaiye tia nei hung khol leu ahi,” ati.
13 And they said, Thy servants were twelve brethren, sons of one man, in the land of Canaan; and behold, the youngest is this day with our father, and one is not.
Hinlah ama hon a donbut uvin, “nasoh teho hi ucha pasal som le ni kahiuvin, pa khatna hung peng ka hiuvin, Canaan gam'a incheng tuchung hin aneopen pa hi ka paotoh ka hin dalha uvin, chule mi khatpa vang aum tapoi.”
14 And Joseph said to them, That is it that I have spoken to you, saying, Ye are spies.
Joseph in adonbut in, “Keiman kasei banga nang ho hi michom miphalou na hiuve,” ati.
15 By this ye shall be put to the proof: as Pharaoh lives, ye shall not go forth hence, unless your youngest brother come hither!
Hichea hi nangma ho kapatep ding na hiuve, Pharaoh hinlahi sea hiche mun hi nada lhah lou ding'u, chule nasopi pau a lhumpen pa na hinpui kah seuva ati.
16 Send one of you, that he may fetch your brother, but ye shall be imprisoned, and your words shall be put to the proof, whether the truth is in you; and if not, as Pharaoh lives, ye are spies.
Nangho lah a mikhat kisol uvin lang amapa chun na sopi pau chu hinpui henlang, chule adangho se hilaiya na um ding'u, na thusei'u hi dihnam tia ka khol chil ding ahi; amavang hichu ahi loule Pharaoh ahin laisea nang ho hi michom, miphalou kiti chu na hiuve.
17 And he put them in custody three days.
Hichun Joseph in amaho chu abonchauvin songkul'a nithum jen ahen in ahi.
18 And Joseph said to them the third day, This do, that ye may live: I fear God.
Nithum lhin nin Joseph in aseiyin, “Hiche hi bol uvin nahin thei nading uvin, ajeh chu keiman Pathen ka ging lheh jeng'e ati.
19 If ye are honest, let one of your brethren remain bound in the house of your prison, but go ye, carry grain for the hunger of your households;
Nangho hi milung theng na hiu leh nangho lah a mikhat hi songkul'a umden uvin lang, ahin adangse se vang ki nungle cheh uvin, na insung mite din chang le mim kipoh un che tauvin ati.
20 and bring your youngest brother to me, in order that your words be verified, and that ye may not die. And they did so.
Chule na sopi pau alhumpen pachu keima koma nahin pui dingu, na thusei houchu dihnam tia kakhol chil ding ahi. Chule nangho nathi lou dingu,” hiti chun amahon jong akisei chu abol'un ahiye.
21 Then they said one to another, We are indeed guilty concerning our brother, whose anguish of soul we saw when he besought us, and we did not hearken; therefore this distress is come upon us.
Hichun amaho khat le khat akihou lim un, “Adih tah a sei dinga eiho hi isopi pau Joseph ibolset jeh uva gotna ichan'u ahi tai atiuve. Ajeh chu eihon imusoh kei jun aman ahinkho huhdoh na ding in a taovin, hinlah eihon inahsah pouve, hiche ho jeh a chu tua hi gotna ho hi eiho chunga hung chu ahitai atiuve.
22 And Reuben answered them, saying, Did I not speak to you, saying, Do not sin against the lad? But ye did not hearken; and now behold, his blood also is required.
Hichun Reuben in amaho chu hitin adonbut in, “Keiman kasei hilou ham, chapang chu imachan bolse hih un, ahin ka thusei nangai pouvin, tua eihon ama thisan man chu isah diu ahitai.”
23 And they did not know that Joseph understood, for the interpreter was between them.
Ahin amahon Joseph thusei chu ahe doh pouve, ajeh chu amaho ki kah lah a paole apan jeh jal ahi.
24 And he turned away from them, and wept. And he returned to them, and spoke to them, and took Simeon from among them, and bound him before their eyes.
Hinlah Joseph a kihei doh in achom lang angan akap tai, ahin ama ahung kinung hei kitin avel in amaho jah thei dingin ahoulim in, hichun amaho lah a Simeon chu alheng doh in amaho mitmu tah in akan tup tai.
25 And Joseph gave orders to fill their vessels with corn, and to restore every man's money into his sack, and to give them provision for the way. And thus did they to them.
Hichun Joseph in thu apen, amaho dipsunga chun chang khum peh uvin, chule sum ho jong chu ama ama dipsunga nung hetpeh un, chule lampia aneh dingu jong gonpeh uvin hiti chun amaho din thil gontup in aumtai.
26 And they loaded their asses with their grain, and departed thence.
Hichun asopi hon sangan chung a chun nehding chang chu ahengdoh un a inlamu ahin jon tauve.
27 And one of them opened his sack to give his ass food in the inn, and saw his money, and behold, it was in the mouth of his sack.
Ahin jan na akingah naova amaho lah a mikhat pa chun sangan an neh peh ding agotan adipsung chu agah hon doh le adip sunga sum dangka chu ahin mudoh tan ahi.
28 And he said to his brethren, My money is returned [to me], and behold, it is even in my sack. And their heart failed [them], and they were afraid, saying one to another, What is this [that] God has done to us?
Veuvin tin asopiho jah a aseiyin, “Kasum hohi ka dipsunga eiki nungkoi peh kit tai,” hichun amaho chu alungu alhadeh tauvin kithing pum pum in khat le khat akihou khom un, “Pathen in ipi eito sah u hi tante atiuve.”
29 And they came into the land of Canaan, to Jacob their father, and told him all that had befallen them, saying,
Hichun amahon apao Jacob heng Canaan gamsung ahung lhung kit tauvin, hichun ama hon Jacob koma thil ahinto hou chu aseipeh un, hitin aseiyui.
30 The man, the lord of the land, spoke roughly to us, and treated us as spies of the land.
“Gamneipa chun hiti hin aw sangtah in keiho jah din asam in, chule keiho hi miphalou gamsunga thilse bol ding in eigingmo un ahi.
31 And we said to him, We are honest; we are not spies:
Hinlah keihon amapa chu ka donbut un, keiho hi milung theng miki tah ka hi bouve ka tiuvin, chule keiho miphaloute ka hipouve.
32 we are twelve brethren, sons of our father; one is not, and the youngest is this day with our father in the land of Canaan.
Chule keima hohi ucha sopi som le ni solam a hung kon ka hiuvin, Pakhat in eihin'u ahin, mikhat vang ahing tapon chule aneo pen pa vang tuhin ka pao toh Canaan gamsunga ka hin dalha uve.
33 And the man, the lord of the land, said to us, Hereby shall I know that ye are honest: leave one of your brethren with me, and take [for] the hunger of your households, and go,
Hichun gamsung a lamkai pipu pa chun hitin eisei peh uve, nangma ho hi hitia ka bol ding mipha milung theng nahiu kahet doh nadin, nangho lah a khat ki dalhau vin, chule adanghon an neh ding chang le mim pouvin lang na inkote kom lang nung che tauvin.
34 and bring your youngest brother to me, and I shall know that ye are not spies, but are honest. Your brother will I give up to you; and ye may trade in the land.
Hinlah na sopipau alhumpen pachu ka henga na hin puilut tei ding'u ahi ati, chule keiman hiche jou teng chule nang hohi mipha midih tah nahiu, michom le mikhol na hi pouve tichu kahet chet ding ahitai. Hiche teng chule nasopi pau chu kanung peh kit diu chule nanghon boina umlouva navah sel a an jong nakihol theiyu ahi,” ati.
35 And it came to pass as they emptied their sacks, that behold, every man had his bundle of money in his sack; and they saw their bundles of money, they and their father, and were afraid.
Adip'u chu alhei lha uvin ahile vetan amitakip in asum chun cheh chu ama ama dip sung cheh a ana umsoh keiyin; ama hon jong apaovin jong a sumchun chengseu chu amudoh phat uvin akihot lhul gam tauve.
36 And Jacob their father said to them, Ye have bereaved me of children: Joseph is not, and Simeon is not, and ye will take Benjamin! All these things are against me.
Jacob chu tijatah'in ahoulim in, “Nangho hin ka chate ho neiguh mang peh cheh dingu ahi tai, Joseph jong aum ta pon, Simeon jong aum ta pon, chule tua nang hon Benjamin jong nei puimang peh kigo kit'un, na thil bol jouseu hi keima douna jeng ahi tai!”
37 And Reuben spoke to his father, saying, Slay my two sons if I bring him not back to thee: give him into my hand, and I will bring him to thee again.
Hichun Reuben in apa Jacob chu a donbut in, “Benjamin chu ka hin nungpui louleh ka chate ni hi na deidei nalo thei ahitai, chule keiman Benjamin na ding in mopo nang kate ati, chule thonlouva kahin nungpui kit teitei ding ahi,” ati.
38 But he said, My son shall not go down with you, for his brother is dead, and he alone is left; and if mischief should befall him by the way in which ye go, then would ye bring down my grey hairs with sorrow to Sheol. (Sheol h7585)
Ahin Jacob in a donbut in, “Ka chapa chu nangma toh chelou ding ahi, ajeh chu aupa Joseph jong athi tan, tua kanei ka lungmonpi ama bou ahi tai; ijem tin lamkim lang nagei tengu le lamkah lah a toset tohkha ta hen lang hile kasam kan nung jenga jong lunghema thikhol khul a neilhoh lut pai tah bah dingu ahibouve,” ati. (Sheol h7585)
