Exodus 19
1 In the third month of the departure of Israel out of the land of Egypt, on this day they came into the wilderness of Sinai:
Isarelnaw ni Izip ram hoi a tâco awh hnukkhu, thapa yung thum, apasuek hnin nah Sinai mon dawk a pha awh.
2 For departing out of Raphidim, and coming to the desert of Sinai, they camped in the same place, and there Israel pitched their tents over against the mountain.
Refidim hoi a tâco awh teh Sinai mon dawk a pha awh teh, hote kahrawng dawk mon hmalah rim a tuk awh.
3 And Moses went up to God: and the Lord called unto him from the mountain, and said: Thus shalt thou say to the house of Jacob, and tell the children of Israel:
Mosi ni Cathut koe a luen nah BAWIPA ni mon hoiyah a kaw, nang teh Jakop e phun, Isarelnaw koe bout a dei e lawk teh,
4 You have seen what I have done to the Egyptians, how I have carried you upon the wings of eagles, and have taken you to myself.
Kai ni Izipnaw koe ka sak e thoseh, nangmouh langta rathei hoi na phu teh kama hanlah na la e thoseh, nangmouh ni na panue awh toe.
5 If therefore you will hear my voice, and keep my covenant, you shall be my peculiar possession above all people: for all the earth is mine.
Hatdawkvah, nangmouh ni atu ka lawk hah atanglah na ngai awh teh, ka lawkkam na tarawi pawiteh, alouke miphunnaw pueng hlak nangmouh teh ka tawn hane râw lah na o awh han. Talai pueng heh kaie doeh.
6 And you shall be to me a priestly kingdom, and a holy nation. Those are the words thou shalt speak to the children of Israel.
Nangmanaw haiyah vaihma uknaeram, kathounge miphun lah kama koe na o awh han telah Isarelnaw koe patuen dei pouh atipouh.
7 Moses came, and calling together the elders of the people, he declared all the words which the Lord had commanded.
Mosi ni bout a tho teh taminaw thung dawk hoi kacuenaw hah a kaw hnukkhu, BAWIPA ni lawkthui e naw pueng hah bout a dei pouh.
8 And all the people answered together: All that the Lord hath spoken, we will do. And when Moses had related the people’s words to the Lord,
Taminaw pueng ni hai BAWIPA ni a dei e pueng teh kaimouh ni ka sak awh han telah lungkânging lahoi bout ati awh. Mosi ni ahnimae lawk hah BAWIPA koe bout a thai sak.
9 The Lord said to him: Lo, now will I come to thee in the darkness of a cloud, that the people may hear me speaking to thee, and may believe thee for ever. And Moses told the words of the people to the Lord.
BAWIPA ni khenhaw! Nang hoi Kai ni dei nah taminaw ni a thai awh teh, nang pou na yuem thai awh nahanlah, tâmai khom dawk hoi nang koe Kai ka tho han telah Mosi koe atipouh. Mosi ni hai BAWIPA e lawk hah taminaw koe bout a dei pouh.
10 And he said to him: Go to the people, and sanctify them today, and tomorrow, and let them wash their garments.
BAWIPA ni hai taminaw aonae koe a cei teh, Sahnin hoi tangtho dawk ahnimouh thoung sak lah. Khohna hai pâsu sak awh teh,
11 And let them be ready against the third day: for on the third day the Lord will come down in the sight of all the people upon mount Sinai.
Apâthum hnin dawk coungkacoe lah awm sak awh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, apâthum hnin nah, BAWIPA ni a taminaw hmalah Sinai mon dawk a kum han.
12 And thou shalt appoint certain limits to the people round about, and thou shalt say to them: Take heed you go not up into the mount, and that ye touch not the borders thereof: every one that toucheth the mount dying he shall die.
Taminaw ni a tapuet awh hoeh hane ngangnae hah mon petkâtue lah sak nateh, nangmouh ni mon dawk luen awh hanh. Mon khok hah na kâbet awh hoeh nahanlah, kâhruetcuet telah dei pouh. Mon kâbet e taminaw teh atanglah dout awh naseh.
13 No hands shall touch him, but he shall be stoned to death, or shall be shot through with arrows: whether it be beast, or man, he shall not live. When the trumpet shall begin to sound, then let them go up into the mount.
Hote tami hah kut hoi tek awh hanh. Atangcalah talung hoi dêi han. Nahoeh pawiteh, tahroe hoi thut han. Tami thoseh, saring thoseh, hring mahoeh. Mongka ueng lawk kasawlah a cai toteh, taminaw ni mon dawk a tho han telah Mosi koe a dei pouh.
14 And Moses came down from the mount to the people, and sanctified them. And when they had washed their garments,
Mosi ni mon hoi taminaw onae koe a kum teh, ahnimouh hah a thoungsak. Ahnimouh ni a khohnanaw a pâsu awh.
15 He said to them: Be ready against the third day, and come not near your wives.
Mosi ni hai apâthum hnin nah coungkacoe lah awm awh. Yu koe ip awh hanh telah taminaw koe atipouh.
16 And now the third day was come, and the morning appeared: and behold thunders began to be heard, and lightning to flash, and a very thick cloud to cover the mount, and the noise of the trumpet sounded exceeding loud, and the people that was in the camp, feared.
Apâthum hnin amom vah, mon dawk keitat, sumpa palik hoi kho tâmai muen a tabo teh, hramki lawk hoi mongka lawk a cai teh rim dawk kaawm e taminaw pueng a pâyaw awh.
17 And when Moses had brought them forth to meet God from the place of the camp, they stood at the bottom of the mount.
Mosi ni hai taminaw Cathut hoi kâhmo sak hanelah, rim dawk hoi a hrawi teh mon khok koe a kangdue awh.
18 And all mount Sinai was on a smoke: because the Lord was come down upon it in fire, and the smoke arose from it as out of a furnace: and all the mount was terrible.
BAWIPA teh hmai hoi kâkayo teh Sinai mon dawk a kum dawkvah, Sinai mon teh hmai a khu. Hmaikhu haiyah takhuen dawk e hmaikhu patetlah a luen teh mon pueng hai a kâhuet.
19 And the sound of the trumpet grew by degrees louder and louder, and was drawn out to a greater length: Moses spoke, and God answered him.
Mongka ueng e kasawlah hoe a cai toteh, Mosi ni a kaw teh Cathut ni lawk hoi a pato.
20 And the Lord came down upon mount Sinai, in the very top of the mount, and he called Moses unto the top thereof. And when he was gone up thither,
BAWIPA teh Sinai monsom dawk a kum. Mosi hah mon vah a kaw dawkvah, Mosi teh mon vah a luen.
21 He said unto him: Go down, and charge the people: lest they should have a mind to pass the limits to see the Lord, and a very great multitude of them should perish.
BAWIPA ni hai taminaw ni khet hanelah, Kai koe tho payon awh vaiteh taminaw a due awh han e hah puennae a tawn dawkvah, kum nateh kâhruetcuetnae poe.
22 The priests also that come to the Lord, let them be sanctified, lest he strike them.
BAWIPA koe ka tho e vaihmanaw haiyah amahoima a kâthoung sak a han. Nahoeh pawiteh, BAWIPA ni a rek awh han telah Mosi koe atipouh.
23 And Moses said to the Lord: The people cannot come up to mount Sinai: for thou did charge, and command, saying: Set limits about the mount, and sanctify it.
Mosi nihai, taminaw ni Sinai mon dawk luen thai awh hoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, tapuet hoeh hane ngangnae naw hah mon petkalup lah ka sak teh, thoungsak awh loe telah lawk yo ka thui toe telah BAWIPA koe bout a dei pouh.
24 And the Lord said to him: Go, get thee down: and thou shalt come up, thou and Aaron with thee: but let not the priests and the people pass the limits, nor come up to the Lord, lest he kill them.
BAWIPA ni hai kum leih. Nang hoi Aron dueng doeh ka luen han. Vaihmanaw hoi taminaw teh BAWIPA koe luen hanelah tho awh hanh naseh. Nahoeh pawiteh, ahnimouh ka rek han telah ati.
25 And Moses went down to the people and told them all.
Mosi ni taminaw onae koe a kum teh a dei pouh.
