< Genesis 12 >
1 And the Lord said to Abram: Go forth out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and out of thy father’s house, and come into the land which I shall shew thee.
Pathen in Abram chu ana houlimpi in “Nagam, na insung mite, na sopiho chule napa sopi ho dalhan keiman gamthah ka musah ding khu jon tan,” ati.
2 And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and magnify thy name, and thou shalt be blessed.
Keiman nang hi nam lentah kasoding nahiye; chule keiman nangma phatthei kaboh ding chule namin kaki than sah ding chule midangho phatthei chan na nahi ding ahi.
3 I will bless them that bless thee, and curse them that curse thee, and IN THEE shall all the kindred of the earth be blessed:
Chule nangman phathei naboh ho chu phathei chang diu, chule nangman na sapset techu ka sapset ding; chule nangma jeh a leiset chunga phung nam kim phatthei chang ding ahiuve.
4 So Abram went out as the Lord had commanded him, and Lot went with him: Abram was seventy-five years old when he went forth from Haran.
Hichun Pathen in athu mop dung jui chun Abram chu akichon in, chule Lot in ama aki lhonpi in. Abram chu Haran dalha a akichon doh chun akum kum somsagi le kum nga ana lhing tan ahi.
5 And he took Sarai his wife, and Lot his brother’s son, and all the substance which they had gathered, and the souls which they had gotten in Haran: and they went out to go into the land of Chanaan. And when they were come into it,
Aji ngaitah Sarai, asopi pa Lot, anei agou, agam jouse toh, agancha jouse, chule Haran a ana um laiya a insungmi ana kisemdoh chengse chu aki puiyin Canaan lam ajon tauve.
6 Abram passed through the country into the place of Sichem, as far as the noble vale: now the Chanaanite was at that time in the land.
Abram in alamjot'na a Shechem chu ahopa in saotah ajot un, hiche achun ngah mun Moreh thingphung kom ah akinga uvin hiche mun chu Canaan mihon ana lodim un ahi.
7 And the Lord appeared to Abram, and said to him: To thy seed will I give this land. And he built there an altar to the Lord, who had appeared to him.
Hichun Pathenin Abram chu akimupi'n “Keiman hiche gamhi na chilhahte kapeh ding ahiye,” hichun Abram injong ahenga hung kilah Pakaiya ding in hiche muna chun maicham khat asem in ahi.
8 And passing on from thence to a mountain, that was on the east side of Bethel, he there pitched his tent, having Bethel on the west, and Hai on the east; he built there also an altar to the Lord, and called upon his name.
Phat chomkhat jou chun, Abram in noilam gam ahin jon in kingah na mun ding thinglhang lam'ah asem doh in hichu nilhum lama Bethel khopi, niso lam a Ai khopi, akah achun ponbuh akison in akinga in, hiche mun achun aman Pakaiya dingin maicham khat asem in chule Pakai min in atao tai.
9 And Abram went forward, going, and proceeding on to the south.
Hichun Abram chu noilam'a ahung chalbe ben Negev lam jonin ache paiye.
10 And there came a famine in the country; and Abram went down into Egypt, to sojourn there: for the famine was very grievous in the land.
Hiche lai phat dontah chun Canaan gam sunga nasatah in kel alhan, Abram chu Egypt ma chelou thei ahi tapon, hikom achun Abram chu gampam mi vaitah in ana um'in ahi.
11 And when he was near to enter into Egypt, he said to Sarai his wife: I know that thou art a beautiful woman:
Abram chu ahung suh deu vin Egypt gamgi ahung lhun phat chun, Abram in ajinu Sarai jah achun aseiyin, Sarai “Ven nangma hi numei melhoi tah nahin.”
12 And that when the Egyptians shall see thee, they will say: She is his wife: and they will kill me, and keep thee.
Egypt miten namu teng u-leh, amahon hitia asei diu, “Ama hi ajinu ahi, amapa hi that doh'u hitin hiche teng chule ajinu hi eiho ichan thei ding'u ahi ati ding'u ahi.”
13 Say, therefore, I pray thee, that thou art my sister: that I may be well used for thee, and that my soul may live for thy sake.
Hijeh chun nang chu kei sopinu hi kahi tin kisei in lang hile chun kei dingin phapen intin chule nangma jal'a chu kei jong ei hinghoi ding'u ahi,” ati.
14 And when Abram was come into Egypt, the Egyptians saw the woman that she was very beautiful.
Thudihtah khat chu ahile Abram chu Egypt ahung lhun chun mipiho chun Sarai chu amelhoi chu amudoh sohtauvin ahi.
15 And the princes told Pharao, and praised her before him: and the woman was taken into the house of Pharao.
Chule Pharaoh lengpa chapaten amudoh phat uvin Pharaoh koma amanu chu aphat sei lheh jeng tauve. Hichun Sarai chu Pharaoh insunga apuilut tauvin ahi.
16 And they used Abram well for her sake. And he had sheep and oxen, and he asses, and men servants and maid servants, and she asses, and camels.
Hichun Sarai jeh chun Pharaoh in Abram chu thil mantam tah apen, kelngoi hon ahin, bong chalte ahin, sangan chal ho ahiuvin; soh pasal hihen soh numei ho hileh, sangongsao ho ahin sangongsao api ho ahiuvin anei doh sah lotai.
17 But the Lord scourged Pharao and his house with most grievous stripes for Sarai, Abram’s wife.
Hinlah Pathen in Pharaoh le ainsung mite chu Abram jinu Sarai jeh chu het phahlou thoh hah tah chun abolgim lheh jeng tan ahi.
18 And Pharao called Abram, and said to him: What is this that thou hast done to me? Why didst thou not tell me that she was thy wife?
Hichun Pharaoh in Abram chu nasatah in ahousal in, “Ipi bol'a kingaito nahim,” atin, “I bol la naloinu na jinu ahi chu nei seipeh lou ham?”
19 For what cause didst thou say, she was thy sister, that I might take her to my wife? Now, therefore, there is thy wife, take her, and go thy way.
Ibola ka sopi nu ahi natia kaji dinga neiki pui sah ham? Hijeh chun ven tunjong hikom a na jinu aum e ki puiyin lang gangtah in chedoh tan,” ati.
20 And Pharao gave his men orders concerning Abram: and they led him away, and his wife, and all that he had.
Hichun Pharaoh in asemang pachong ho thu apetan, “Abram ahin ajinu ahin chule anei agou abonchan hiche gam'a konin gathah doh un,” ati.
