< Exodus 4 >

1 Then Moses answered, and said, But lo, they will not beleeue me, nor hearken vnto my voyce: for they will say, The Lord hath not appeared vnto thee.
Mosi ni, ahnimanaw ni kai na yuem awh mahoeh, ka lawk hai ngâi awh mahoeh, BAWIPA ni nang koe kamnuek mahoeh telah a ti awh han doeh atipouh.
2 And the Lord said vnto him, What is that in thine hande? And he answered, A rod.
BAWIPA ni na kut dawk bang hno maw kaawm telah a pacei navah, sonron ao telah atipouh.
3 Then said he, Cast it on the ground. So he cast it on the grounde, and it was turned into a serpent: and Moses fled from it.
Talai dawk tâkhawng haw atipouh e patetlah a tâkhawng navah, sonron teh tahrun lah a coung teh, Mosi ni a yawng takhai.
4 Againe the Lord saide vnto Moses, Put foorth thine hand, and take it by the tayle. Then he put foorth his hande and caught it, and it was turned into a rod in his hand.
BAWIPA ni na kut hoi a mai dawk man hottelah atipouh e patetlah Mosi ni a kut hoi a man navah, a kut dawk sonron lah bout a coung pouh.
5 Do this that they may beleeue, that the Lord God of their fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Izhak, and the God of Iaakob hath appeared vnto thee.
Hottelah, na sak pawiteh ahnimae mintoenaw e Cathut, Abraham e Cathut, Isak e Cathut, Jakop e Cathut lah kaawm e BAWIPA ni nang koe a kamnuenae hah hote taminaw ni a yuem awh han telah atipouh.
6 And the Lord saide furthermore vnto him, Thrust nowe thine hand into thy bosome. And he thrust his hand into his bosome, and when he tooke it out againe, behold, his hand was leprous as snowe.
BAWIPA ni na kut na lungtabue thung tapu haw bout atipouh e patetlah a kut a lungtabue thung a tapu teh a rasa navah, a kut teh a hrikbei.
7 Moreouer he said, Put thine hand into thy bosome againe. So he put his hande into his bosome againe, and pluckt it out of his bosome, and behold, it was turned againe as his other flesh.
Na kut hah na lungtabue dawk bout tapu atipouh e patetlah a kut a lungtabue dawk bout a tapu teh a rasa navah, hmaloe e patetlah bout a coung.
8 So shall it be, if they wil not beleeue thee, neither obey the voyce of ye first signe, yet shall they beleeue for the voyce of the seconde signe.
Hote taminaw ni na yuem awh hoeh, hmaloe e mitnoutnae hai ngai awh hoehpawiteh, apâhni e mitnoutnae teh a yuem awh han.
9 But if they will not yet beleeue these two signes, neither obey vnto thy voyce, then shalt thou take of the water of the riuer, and powre it vpon the drie lande: so the water which thou shalt take out of the riuer, shalbe turned to blood vpon the drie land.
Hote mitnoutnae kahni touh e hah yuem awh hoeh, na lawk hai ngâi awh hoehpawiteh, Nai tui youn touh lat nateh a oung lah rabawk, hottelah tuipui dawk e la e tui teh talai kaphui dawk thi lah ao han telah atipouh.
10 But Moses said vnto the Lord, Oh my Lord, I am not eloquent, neither at any time haue bene, nor yet since thou hast spoken vnto thy seruant: but I am slowe of speach and slowe of tongue.
Hat navah Mosi ni BAWIPA koe Oe ka Bawipa, kai teh ha hoehnahlan hai na san koe lawk na dei hnukkhu hai lawk ka dei thai e lah kaawm hoeh. Lawkdei khokpakhak e lah ka o atipouh.
11 Then the Lord said vnto him, Who hath giuen the mouth to man? or who hath made the domme, or the deafe, or him that seeth, or the blinde? haue not I the Lord?
BAWIPA ni hai tami e pahni apinimaw a sak. Lawka, hnâpang, mitdawn, mitang hah apinimaw a sak. Kai, BAWIPA ni ka sak e nahoehmaw.
12 Therefore goe nowe, and I will be with thy mouth, and will teach thee what thou shalt say.
Hatdawkvah, atu cet leih. Na pahni dawk ka o vaiteh, nang ni bangtelamaw na dei han tie hah na cangkhai han telah atipouh.
13 But he saide, Oh my Lord, sende, I pray thee, by the hande of him, whome thou shouldest sende.
Mosi ni Oe ka Bawipa, na ngai e tami e kut dawk mah poe lawih telah atipouh navah,
14 Then the Lord was verie angrie with Moses, and said, Doe not I know Aaron thy brother the Leuite, that he himselfe shall speake? for loe, he commeth also foorth to meete thee, and when he seeth thee, he will be glad in his heart.
BAWIPA ni Mosi koe a lungkhuek teh Levih tami Aron teh na hmau nahoehmaw. Ahni teh lawk a dei thai tie ka panue. Ahni teh nang dawn hanelah a tho lahun. Na kâhmo torei a lunghawi han.
15 Therefore thou shalt speake vnto him, and put the wordes in his mouth, and I will be with thy mouth, and with his mouth, and will teach you what ye ought to doe.
Nang ni ahni hoi kâpan nateh, ahni ni a dei hane lawk hah ka poe han. Nange pahni dawk thoseh, ahnie pahni dawk thoseh, Kai ka o vaiteh nangmouh roi ni bangtelamaw na sak han tie na cangkhai han.
16 And he shall be thy spokesman vnto the people: and he shall be, euen he shall be as thy mouth, and thou shalt be to him as God.
Ahni ni nange yueng lah a dei vaiteh, ahni teh nange pahni patetlah, nang hai ahnie Cathut patetlah na han.
17 Moreouer thou shalt take this rod in thine hand, wherewith thou shalt do miracles.
Nang ni mitnoutnaw na sak thai hanelah hete sonron haiyah, na kut dawk pou na sin han telah atipouh.
18 Therefore Moses went and returned to Iethro his father in lawe, and said vnto him, I pray thee, let me goe, and returne to my brethren, which are in Egypt, and see whether they be yet aliue. Then Iethro said to Moses, Go in peace.
Mosi ni a masei Jethro koe a cei teh, Izip ram kaawm e ka miphunnaw ni paroup a hring rah maw telah khet hanelah, ahnimouh onae hmuen koe ka cei han telah a kâhei navah, Jethro ni lungmawngcalah hoi cet lawi bout atipouh.
19 (For the Lord had said vnto Moses in Midian, Goe, returne to Egypt: for they are all dead which went about to kill thee)
Hat navah BAWIPA ni, Izip ram lah bout ban leih, nang na ka thet hane taminaw teh koung a due awh toe telah midian ram dawk Mosi koe atipouh.
20 Then Moses tooke his wife, and his sonnes, and put them on an asse, and returned towarde the lande of Egypt, and Moses tooke the rod of God in his hand.
Hat navah, Mosi ni a yu hoi capa kahni touh la a kâcui sak teh, Cathut e sonron hah a kut dawk a sin teh, Izip ram lah a ban.
21 And the Lord saide vnto Moses, When thou art entred and come into Egypt againe, see that thou doe all the wonders before Pharaoh, which I haue put in thine hand: but I will harden his heart, and he shall not let the people goe.
BAWIPA ni hai nang ni Izip ram lah na ban teh na pha torei teh, na kut dawk Kai ni na poe e kângairu hnonaw pueng hah Faro siangpahrang hmalah sak pouh. Hottelah, na sak nakunghai, Kai ni ahni teh a lung ka pata sak vaiteh, ahni ni Isarel taminaw hah cetsak mahoeh.
22 Then thou shalt say to Pharaoh, Thus saith the Lord, Israel is my sonne, euen my first borne.
Hattoteh nang ni Faro siangpahrang koe BAWIPA ni Isarel teh ka camin doeh.
23 Wherefore I say to thee, Let my sonne go, that he may serue me: if thou refuse to let him goe, beholde, I will slay thy sonne, euen thy first borne.
Ka ca ni Kai na bawk thai nahanlah cetsak loe, na cetsak hoehpawiteh, na camin hai Kai ni ka thei han telah na ti pouh han telah ati.
24 And as he was by the waye in the ynne, the Lord met him, and would haue killed him.
Kahlawng a cei lahun nah, BAWIPA ni Mosi hah rim dawk a kâhmo teh thei hanlah a kâcai.
25 Then Zipporah tooke a sharpe knife, and cut away the foreskinne of her sonne, and cast it at his feete, and said, Thou art indeede a bloody husband vnto me.
Hat navah, Zipporah ni lungtaw a la teh a capa e vuensom a a pouh hnukkhu, a vâ e khok a nep pouh hnukkhu, atangcalah nang teh thipaling ka lawngsakkung vâ lah doeh na o telah atipouh.
26 So he departed from him. Then she saide, O bloodie husband (because of the circumcision)
Hat navah, Mosi hah a ceisak. A yu ni vuensomanae yawhawinae kecu dawk nang teh kai koe thipaling na ka palawng e vâ lah na o telah atipouh nae doeh.
27 Then the Lord saide vnto Aaron, Goe meete Moses in the wildernesse. And he went and mette him in the Mount of God, and kissed him.
BAWIPA ni hai Mosi dawn hanelah kahrawng lah cet loe telah Aron koe atipouh e patetlah Aron ni a cei teh, Cathut e mon dawk Mosi hah a kâhmo teh a paco.
28 Then Moses tolde Aaron all the wordes of the Lord, who had sent him, and all the signes wherewith he had charged him.
Mosi ni hai ama ka patoun e BAWIPA e lawknaw pueng thoseh, lawk a thui e mitnoutnaw thoseh, Aron koe a dei pouh.
29 So went Moses and Aaron, and gathered all the Elders of the children of Israel.
Hote hmaunawngha kahni touh roi ni Isarel tami kacuenaw a pâkhueng roi hnukkhu,
30 And Aaron told all the wordes, which the Lord had spoken vnto Moses, and he did the miracles in the sight of the people,
Aron ni Mosi koe BAWIPA e a lawknaw pueng bout a dei teh, taminaw e hmalah mitnoutnaw a kamnue sak.
31 And the people beleeued, and when they heard that the Lord had visited the children of Israel, and had looked vpon their tribulation, they bowed downe, and worshipped.
Hote taminaw ni hai a yuem awh. BAWIPA ni Isarel miphun hah a khetyawtnae thoseh, a khang awh e rektapnae thoseh, a hmu tie a thai awh toteh, a lûsaling awh teh a bawk awh.
