Genesis 20
1 Afterward Abraham departed thence toward the South countrey and dwelled betweene Cadesh and Shur, and soiourned in Gerar.
Te phoeiah Abraham loh Negev kho la puen uh tih Kadesh neh Shur laklo ah kho a sak vaengkah Gerar ah bakuep.
2 And Abraham said of Sarah his wife, She is my sister. Then Abimelech King of Gerar sent and tooke Sarah.
Te vaengah Abraham loh a yuu Sarah te ka ngannu ni a ti dongah Gerar manghai Abimelek a tah tih Sarah te a loh.
3 But God came to Abimelech in a dreame by night, and said to him, Beholde, thou art but dead, because of the woman, which thou hast taken: for she is a mans wife.
Tedae Abimelek te khoyin a mang ah Pathen loh a paan tih a taengah, “Rhukom tangtae hlang yuu te na rhawt dongah na duek coeng ne,” a ti nah.
4 (Notwithstanding Abimelech had not yet come neere her) And he said, Lord, wilt thou slay euen the righteous nation?
Te dongah Abimelek loh anih te ben pawh. Tedae, “Boeipa namtom loh dueng cakhaw na ngawn aya?
5 Said not he vnto me, She is my sister? yea, and she her selfe said, He is my brother: with an vpright minde, and innocent handes haue I done this.
Amah loh kai taengah, ‘Anih ka ngannu a ti tih he long khaw ka nganpa ni,’ a ti moenih a? Ka thinko thincaknah neh, ka kut cimcaihnah nen ni he khaw ka saii,” a ti nah.
6 And God saide vnto him by a dreame, I knowe that thou diddest this euen with an vpright minde, and I kept thee also that thou shouldest not sinne against me: therefore suffered I thee not to touche her.
Te dongah anih te a mang ah Pathen loh, “Ue hekah he nang loh thinko thincaknah neh na saii tila ka ming. Tedae anih taek sak ham nang kam paek pawt dongah kai taengah tholh khui lamloh nang te kan tuem kan soem.
7 Now then deliuer the man his wife againe: for he is a Prophet, and he shall pray for thee that thou mayest liue: but if thou deliuer her not againe, be sure that thou shalt die the death, thou, and all that thou hast.
Tahae ah hlang yuu te mael laeh. Anih te tonghma tih nang ham a thangthui daengah ni na hing eh. Na mael pawt atah na taengkah boeih neh namah khaw na duek rhoe na duek ni tila ming laeh,” a ti nah.
8 Then Abimelech rising vp early in ye morning, called all his seruants, and tolde all these things vnto them, and the men were sore afraid.
Te dongah Abimelek te mincang ah thoo tih a sal boeih te a khue. Te phoeiah hekah olka boeih he amih hna ah a thui hatah hlang boeih loh a rhih uh.
9 Afterward Abimelech called Abraham, and said vnto him, What hast thou done vnto vs? and what haue I offeded thee, that thou hast brought on me and on my kingdome this great sinne? thou hast done things vnto me that ought not to be done.
Abimelek loh Abraham te a khue tih, “Kaimih ham balae na saii, nang taengah metlam ka tholh tih kamah so neh ka ram ah tholh muep nan khuen. Kai taengah na saii bibi te a saii uh noek moenih,” a ti nah.
10 So Abimelech said vnto Abraham, What sawest thou that thou hast done this thing?
Te dongah Abimelek loh Abraham te, “Hekah dumlai he na saii vaengah balae na hmuh,” a ti nah.
11 Then Abraham answered, Because I thought thus, Surely the feare of God is not in this place, and they will slay me for my wiues sake.
Tedae Abraham loh, “Hekah hmuen ah Pathen hinyahnah om pawt tih ka yuu kah olka ah kai n'ngawn uh ve ka ti dongah ni.
12 Yet in very deede she is my sister: for she is the daughter of my father, but not the daughter of my mother, and she is my wife.
Tedae anih te a pa canu ka ngannu rhep ni. A nu canu pawt dae ka yuu lam khaw om ngawn.
13 Nowe when God caused me to wander out of my fathers house, I said then to her, This is thy kindnes that thou shalt shewe vnto me in all places where we come, Say thou of me, He is my brother.
Te dongah a pa im lamkah Pathen loh kai kho m'hmang sak vaengah anih taengah, ‘Nang kah sitlohnah he kai taengah na saii ham atah mekah hmuen boeih ah m'pha cakhaw, anih he ka nganpa ni ti ne,’ tila kamah loh pahoi ka ti nah coeng,” a ti nah.
14 Then tooke Abimelech sheepe and beeues, and men seruants, and women seruants, and gaue them vnto Abraham, and restored him Sarah his wife.
Te vaengah Abimelek loh tu neh saelhung khaw, sal tongpa neh salnu khaw a loh tih Abraham te a paek. A yuu Sarah te khaw amah taengah a mael.
15 And Abimelech saide, Beholde, my land is before thee: dwell where it pleaseth thee.
Te phoeiah Abimelek loh, “Na mikhmuh kah ka khohmuen aka om he namah mik ah then na ti bangla khosa ngawn ne,” a ti nah.
16 Likewise to Sarah he said, Beholde, I haue giuen thy brother a thousand pieces of siluer: behold, he is the vaile of thine eyes to all that are with thee, and to all others: and she was thus reproued.
Sarah taengah khaw, “Na nganpa taengah tangka thawngkhat te, nang ham hmaithennah la ka paek coeng tih namah taengkah aka om boeih neh hlang boeih hmaiah na tang uh coeng he,” a ti nah.
17 Then Abraham prayed vnto God, and God healed Abimelech, and his wife, and his women seruants: and they bare children.
Tedae Abraham te Pathen taengah thangthui. Pathen loh Abimelek khaw, a yuu khaw, a salnu rhoek khaw a hoeih sak dongah ca a sak uh.
18 For the Lord had shut vp euery wombe of the house of Abimelech, because of Sarah Abrahams wife.
Abraham yuu Sarah kah lai ah Abimelek im kah hlang bung boeih te BOEIPA loh a khaih rhoela a khaih pah.
