Genesis 44
1 And Joseph commanded the steward of his house, saying: Fill their sacks with corn, as much as they can hold: and put the money of every one in the top of his sack.
Ahnimouh ni imkaringkung koevah, ahnimouh ni aphu thai yit touh, cawngko pakawi pouh nateh, amamae tangka rip hah amamae cawngko som koe lengkaleng tat pouh.
2 And in the mouth of the younger’s sack put my silver cup, and the price which he gave for the wheat. And it was so done.
Hahoi kaie manang, ngun manang hah a cahnoung e cawngko som dawkvah cakang phu tangka hoi na ta pouh han, telah kâ a poe.
3 And when the morning arose, they were sent away with their asses.
Khodai tahma vah ahnimouh teh amamae lanaw hoi a kamthaw awh.
4 And when they were now departed out of the city, and had gone forward a little way; Joseph sending for the steward of his house, said: Arise, and pursue after the men: and when thou hast overtaken them, say to them: Why have you returned evil for good?
Kho thung hoi a kamthaw awh teh ahlapoungnae koe a pha awh hoehnahlan, Joseph ni imkaringkung koe thaw nateh ahnimanaw hah pâlei haw. Hahoi na pha toteh ahnimouh koe, bangkongmaw hawinae hah hawihoehnae hoi na patho awh.
5 The cup which you have stolen is that in which my lord drinketh, and in which he is wont to divine: you have done a very evil thing.
Hot hah, kaie bawipa e misur neinae hoi hma lae ka tho hane kong a panuenae nahoehmaw. Het patet lae na o awh e heh puenghoi na payon awh, na ti pouh han.
6 He did as he had commanded him. And having overtaken them, he spoke to them the same words.
Hahoi, rek a pha toteh hottelah a dei pouh.
7 And they answered: Why doth our lord speak so, as though thy servants had committed so heinous a fact?
Ahnimouh ni ahni koe, bawipa, bangkongmaw het patet lae lawk na dei, na sannaw ni hot patet e hno ka sak awh hoeh.
8 The money, that we found in the top of our sacks, we brought back to thee from the land of Chanaan: how then should it be that we should steal out of thy lord’s house, gold or silver?
Khenhaw! kaimae cawngko som dawk ka hmu awh e tangka hoi Kanaan kho hoi nang koe bout ka thokhai awh nahoehmaw. Bangtelamaw na bawipa im e tangka hoi sui teh ka paru thai awh han namaw.
9 With whomsoever of thy servants shall be found that which thou seekest, let him die, and we will be the bondmen of my lord.
Na sannaw thung dawk hote hno na hmunae pueng dout seh. Kaimouh hai bawipa e san lah ka o awh yawkaw han, ati awh.
10 And he said to them: Let it be according to your sentence: with whomsoever it shall be found, let him be my servant, and you shall be blameless.
Ahni ni bokheiyah, atu hai nangmae lawk patetlah lawiseh, hno ka hmunae tami hah ka san lah ao vaiteh, nangmouh teh toun kaawm hoeh lah na o awh han telah ati.
11 Then they speedily took down their sacks to the ground, and every man opened his sack.
Hat nah tahma vah amamae cawngko lengkaleng a patue awh teh lengkaleng a paawng awh.
12 Which when he had searched, beginning at the eldest and ending at the youngest, he found the cup in Benjamin’s sack.
Ahni ni kacuepoung koehoi kanawpoung totouh a tawng pouh. Hattoteh Benjamin e cawngko dawk manang teh a hmu.
13 Then they rent their garments, and loading their asses again, returned into the town.
Hat nah tahma vah a khohna a phi awh, lanaw a phu sak awh teh kho dawk a ban awh.
14 And Juda at the head of his brethren went in to Joseph, (for he was not yet gone out of the place), and they altogether fell down before him on the ground.
Judah hoi a hmaunawnghanaw teh Joseph im a pha awh, ama teh haw vah a la o rah. Hahoi a hmalah a tabo awh.
15 And he said to them: Why would you do so? know you not that there is no one like me in the science of divining.
Hahoi Joseph ni bangmaw na sak awh. Kai patetlae tami ni hmalah ka tho hane hno a panue han tie na panuek awh hoeh maw, telah ati.
16 And Juda said to him: What shall we answer my lord? or what shall we say, or be able justly to allege? God hath found out the iniquity of thy servants: behold, we are all bondmen to my lord, both we, and he with whom the cup was found.
Judah ni ka bawipa nang koe bangvai ka dei awh toung. Bangmaw ka pâpha thai awh han. Cathut ni na sannaw yonnae teh a hmu toe. Khenhaw! ka bawipa kaimouh hoi ahnie kut dawk manang a hmu e hoi na san lah doeh ka o awh toe telah ati.
17 Joseph answered: God forbid that I should do so: he that stole the cup, he shall be my bondman: and go you away free to your father.
Hatei ahni ni, hottelah khoeroe ka sak mahoeh, a kut dawk manang a hmunae dueng doeh ka san lah ao vaiteh nangmouh teh na pa koe karoumcalah cet awh, telah ati.
18 Then Juda coming nearer, said boldly: I beseech thee, my lord, let thy servant speak a word in thy ears, and be not angry with thy servant: for after Pharao thou art,
Hat nah tahma vah, Judah ni Joseph hah a hnai teh, Oe ka bawipa, pahren lahoi na san heh, ka bawipa na san heh na hnâthainae koe lawk kam touh na dei sak haw. Na lungkhueknae hah na san koe kaman sak hanh. Bangtelah tetpawiteh, nang teh Faro patetlah doeh na o.
19 My lord. Thou didst ask thy servants the first time: Have you a father or a brother?
Ka bawipa nang ni, na pa nakunghai, hmaunawngha nakunghai na tawn maw telah na sannaw hah na pacei.
20 And we answered thee, my lord: We have a father an old man, and a young boy, that was born in his old age; whose brother by the mother is dead: and he alone is left of his mother, and his father loveth him tenderly.
Kaimouh ni nang koe ka matawngpoung e na pa ka tawn awh. Matawng sawi a sak e camoca ka tawn awh teh buet touh teh a due toe, a manu ni a khe e dawk ahni dueng ao teh a na pa ni a pahren poung, ka ti awh.
21 And thou saidst to thy servants: Bring him hither to me, and I will set my eyes on him.
Nang ni, ahni ka hmu thai nahanlah kai koe thokhai awh ati.
22 We suggested to my lord: The boy cannot leave his father: for if he leave him, he will die.
Ka bawipa kaimouh ni tongpaca ni a na pa cettakhai thai mahoeh, bangkongtetpawiteh, a na pa cettakhai pawiteh a na pa a due han doeh ka ti awh.
23 And thou saidst to thy servants: Except your youngest brother come with you, you shall see my face no more.
Hatei, nang ni na nawngha cahnoung nangmouh koe tho van hoehpawiteh, ka mei na hmawt awh mahoeh toe, ati.
24 Therefore when we were gone up to thy servant our father, we told him all that my lord had said.
Hahoi, na sannaw apa koe ka pha awh toteh, ka bawipa, bawipa nange lawk hah ka dei pouh awh.
25 And our father said: Go again, and buy us a little wheat.
Apa ni bout cet awh nateh, mamouh hanelah cakang youn touh bout ran awh, ati.
26 And we said to him: We cannot go: if our youngest brother go down with us, we will set out together: otherwise, without him we dare not see the man’s face.
Hatei kaimouh ni ka cet thai awh mahoeh, nawngha cahnoung kaimouh koe tho van pawiteh dueng doeh ka cei awh han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, nawngha cahnoung kaimouh koe tho van hoehpawiteh ahnie mei ka hmawt thai awh mahoeh toe, telah ka ti pouh awh.
27 Whereunto he answered: You know that my wife bore me two.
Na san kaimae na pa ni, ka yu ni capa kahni touh na khe pouh tie na panue awh.
28 One went out, and you said: A beast devoured him: and hitherto he appeareth not.
Buet touh teh kai koehoi a tâco teh koung paset e lah ao mue toe, hahoi teh ahni ka hmawt boihoeh toe.
29 If you take this also, and any thing befall him in the way you will bring down my gray hairs with sorrow unto hell. (Sheol h7585)
Hahoi hete camo heh kai koe hoi na ceikhai teh, runae kâhmo pawiteh, ka sampo hah lungmathoenae lahoi phuen dawk na loum sak awh toe, telah ati. (Sheol h7585)
30 Therefore if I shall go to thy servant our father, and the boy be wanting, (whereas his life dependeth upon the life of him, )
Hatdawkvah, tongpaca heh kaimouh koe tho van laipalah na san apa koe ka tho pawiteh, a hringnae hoi tongpaca e hringnae mekkawme lah ao dawkvah,
31 And he shall see that he is not with us, he will die, and thy servants shall bring down his gray hairs with sorrow unto hell. (Sheol h7585)
tongpaca tho van hoeh tie hah a panue tahma kadout han doeh. Hattoteh na sannaw ni na san apa e sampo hah lungmathoenae hoi phuen koe ka loum sak yawkaw han doeh. (Sheol h7585)
32 Let me be thy proper servant, who took him into my trust, and promised, saying: If I bring him not again, I will be guilty of sin against my father for ever.
Bangtelah tetpawiteh, na san ni nang koe ka thokhai hoehpawiteh, a yungyoe na hmalah yonpen e lah ka o han telah apa koe tongpaca kong dawk thoe yo ka bo toe.
33 Therefore I thy servant will stay instead of the boy in the service of my lord, and let the boy go up with his brethren.
Pahren lahoi na san hah tongpaca yueng lah ka bawipa, na san lah na awm sak nateh, tongpaca heh a hmaunaw hoi ban sak leih.
34 For I cannot return to my father without the boy, lest I be a witness of the calamity that will oppress my father.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, kai koe tongpaca tho van hoehpawiteh bangtelamaw apa koe ka cei thai awh han vaw. Telah hoehpawiteh, apa koe ka phat hane thoenae teh ka hmu payon awh han doeh, telah ati.
