Genesis 42
1 Then Iaakob saw that there was foode in Egypt, and Iaakob said vnto his sonnes, Why gaze ye one vpon an other?
Jakop ni Izip ram vah cakang ao tie a panue teh, a capanaw koevah bangkongmaw sut na kâkhet awh.
2 And he said, Behold, I haue heard that there is foode in Egypt, Get you downe thither, and bie vs foode thence, that we may liue and not die.
Izip ram vah cakang ao tie ka panue dout laipalah hring awh nahanlah hawvah cet awh nateh mamouh hanlah ran awh haw, telah ati.
3 So went Iosephs ten brethren downe to bye corne of the Egyptians.
Hottelah Joseph hmaunaw hra touh teh cakang ran hanlah Izip ram a cei awh.
4 But Beniamin Iosephs brother woulde not Iaakob send with his brethren: for he saide, Least death should befall him.
Hatei, Joseph e a nawngha Benjamin teh a hmaunaw koe Jakop ni cetsak van hoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, runae kâhmo langvaih ati.
5 And the sonnes of Israel came to bye foode among them that came: for there was famine in the land of Canaan.
Isarel canaw teh cakang ran hanelah a cei awh. Bangkongtetpawiteh Kanaan ram hai takang teh a tho van.
6 Now Ioseph was gouerner of the land, who solde to all the people of the lande: then Iosephs brethren came, and bowed their face to the groud before him.
Joseph teh ram thung bawi a tawk teh, hote ram pueng koe cakang kayawtkung lah ao. Hottelah Joseph e hmaunaw a tho awh teh, a hmalah talai khet laihoi a tabo awh.
7 And when Ioseph sawe his brethren, hee knewe them, and made himselfe straunge toward them, and spake to them roughly, and saide vnto them, Whence come yee? Who answered, Out of the land of Canaan, to bye vitaile.
Joseph ni a hmaunaw hah a hmu teh a panue. Hatei, ka panuek hoeh e patetlah a kâsak teh, ahnimouh koe lawkkahram lahoi nâhoi maw na tho awh atipouh. Ahnimouh ni cakang ran hanelah Kanaan ram hoi ka tho awh atipouh.
8 (Now Ioseph knewe his brethren, but they knew not him.
Joseph ni a hmaunaw hah a panue, hatei ahnimouh ni ahni teh panuek awh hoeh.
9 And Ioseph remembred the dreames, which he dreamed of them) and he sayde vnto them, Ye are spies, and are come to see the weaknesse of the land.
Joseph ni ahnimouh kong dawk mang a sak e hah a panue teh ahnimouh koe katuetnaw doeh, khoram caicinae khet hanelah kathonaw doeh atipouh.
10 But they sayde vnto him, Nay, my lorde, but to bye vitayle thy seruants are come.
Ahnimouh ni nahoeh bo ka bawipa, na sannaw hah cakang ran hanelah ka tho awh e doeh, ati awh.
11 Wee are all one mans sonnes: wee meane truely, and thy seruants are no spies.
Tami buet touh e capanaw doeh, tami kahawi doeh. Na sannaw heh katuetnaw nahoeh, atipouh.
12 But he saide vnto them, Nay, but yee are come to see the weakenes of the land.
Hatei ahni ni ahnimouh koe na yuem awh hoeh, khoram caicinae khet hanelah na kathonaw doeh atipouh.
13 And they said, We thy seruants are twelue brethren, the sonnes of one man in the lande of Canaan: and beholde, the yongest is this day with our father, and one is not.
Ahnimouh ni, na sannaw hah hmaunawngha hlaikahni touh ka pha awh. Kanaan ram kaawm tami buet touh e capanaw doeh. Kanawpoung e teh apa koe ao. Buet touh e teh awm hoeh toe, ati awh.
14 Againe Ioseph sayde vnto them, This is it that I spake vnto you, saying, Ye are spies.
Hatei Joseph ni ahnimouh koe katuetnaw doeh ka tie hah a tang doeh.
15 Hereby ye shall be proued: by the life of Pharaoh, ye shall not goe hence, except your yongest brother come hither.
Hettelah tanouk e lah na o awh han. Kanawpoung e hah hi tho hoehpawiteh Faro hringnae noe lahoi hete hmuen koehoi na tâcawt awh mahoeh.
16 Send one of you which may fet your brother, and ye shall be kept in prison, that your words may be proued, whether there bee trueth in you: or els by the life of Pharaoh ye are but spies.
Nangmouh dawk lawkkatang ao maw awm hoeh maw, nangmae lawk tanouknae lah nangmouh thung dawk e buet touh patoun awh nateh, na nawngha teh thokhai naseh. Nangmouh teh thongim thung na o awh han rah, hoehpawiteh Faro hringnae noe lahoi katuetnaw katang doeh ka ti han, telah ati.
17 So he put them in warde three dayes.
Hottelah hnin thum touh abuemlah thongim a paung.
18 Then Ioseph said vnto them the third day, This do, and liue: for I feare God.
Apâthum hnin vah Joseph ni ahnimouh koe hettelah sak awh na hring awh han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Cathut hah ka taki,
19 If ye be true men, let one of your brethren be bounde in your prison house, and goe ye, carie foode for the famine of your houses:
tamikalan lah na awm awh pawiteh nangmouh thung dawk buet touh thongim bawt seh. Alouknaw teh ban awh nateh, takang ka tho e ni imthungnaw hanelah cakang hah phawt awh.
20 But bring your yonger brother vnto me, that your wordes may be tried, and that ye dye not: and they did so.
Hahoi kanawpoung e hah kai koe thokhai awh. Hat pawiteh, na lawk kamceng vaiteh na dout awh mahoeh, atipouh teh hottelah a sak awh.
21 And they said one to another, We haue verily sinned against our brother, in that we sawe the anguish of his soule, when he besought vs, and we would not heare him: therefore is this trouble come vpon vs.
Ahnimouh ni hmaunawngha koe sak awh e hah payon poung awh toe, na pahren awh telah kâhei awh lahun nah a lungpuen e ka hmu awh eiteh, ka tarawi ngai awh hoeh. Hatdawkvah hete temdengnae ni na thosin e doeh, telah buet touh hoi buet touh a kâdei awh.
22 And Reuben answered them, saying, Warned I not you, saying, Sinne not against the childe, and ye would not heare? and lo, his blood is now required.
Reuben ni ahnimouh koe camo taranlahoi yonnae sak hanh awh, telah nangmouh koe ka dei nahoehmaw. Na thai ngai awh yawmaw. Hatdawkvah khenhaw! a thipaling phu teh atu maimouh koe hei e lah ao toe, telah atipouh.
23 (And they were not aware that Ioseph vnderstoode them: for he spake vnto them by an interpreter.)
Hatei Joseph ni lawk tâhlat hno lahoi lawk a dei dawkvah, kho a khan awh e hah Joseph ni a thai panuek doeh tie hah ahnimouh ni panuek awh hoeh.
24 Then he turned from them, and wept, and turned to them againe, and communed with them, and tooke Simeon from among them, and bounde him before their eyes.
Hahoi ahnimouh koehoi alouklah a cei teh a ka. Ahnimouh koe bout a tho teh bout a pato, ahnimouh koehoi Simeon hah a hmu awhnae koe a katek.
25 So Ioseph commanded that they should fill their sackes with wheate, and put euery mans money againe in his sacke, and giue them vitaile for the iourney: and thus did he vnto them.
Joseph ni ahnimouh cawngko dawk cakang cui hane hoi ahnimae tangka hai cawngko dawk pâseng hanelah kâ a poe. Hateh hottelah a sak awh.
26 And they layed their vitaile vpon their asses, and departed thence.
Ahnimouh ni cakang la dawk aphu sak awh teh a tâco awh.
27 And as one of them opened his sacke for to giue his asse prouender in the ynne, he espyed his money: for lo, it was in his sackes mouth.
Ahnimouh thung dawk tami buet touh ni a roe awhnae koe lanaw rawca poe hanelah cawngko a paawng teh tangka hah a hmu, cawngko som dawkvah ao.
28 Then he sayde vnto his brethren, My money is restored: for loe, it is euen in my sacke. And their heart fayled them, and they were astonished, and sayde one to another, What is this, that God hath done vnto vs?
Hottelah a hmaunawnghanaw koevah, kaie tangka bout a ta awh, khenhaw! hei, kaie cawngko dawk ao hei, telah ati. A lungphuen awh teh Cathut ni hettelah na sak aw hei. Bang ngainae han na vaimoe telah ati awh teh, pâyaw laihoi buet touh hoi buet touh a kâkhet awh.
29 And they came vnto Iaakob their father vnto the lande of Canaan, and tolde him all that had befallen them, saying,
Kanaan ram a na pa Jakop koevah a pha awh, a kâhmo awh e pueng hah a dei pouh awh.
30 The man, who is Lord of the lande, spake roughly to vs, and put vs in prison as spyes of the countrey.
Hot ram dawk e bawi lah kaawm e ni ka matheng poung lah na pato awh teh, ram katuetnaw lah na o awh.
31 And we sayd vnto him, We are true men, and are no spies.
Hatei, kaimouh ni ahni koe, tamikalannaw doeh. Katuetkung lah khoeroe kaawm awh hoeh.
32 We be twelue brethren, sonnes of our father: one is not, and the yongest is this day with our father in the land of Canaan.
Hmaunawngha hlaikahni touh ka o awh teh, apa e capa lah ka o awh. Buet touh teh awm hoeh toe. Kanawpoung e teh atu Kanaan ram vah apa koevah ao, telah ka ti pouh awh.
33 Then the Lord of the countrey sayde vnto vs, Hereby shall I knowe if ye be true men: Leaue one of your brethren with me, and take foode for the famine of your houses and depart,
Hahoi hote ram dawk e bawi ni hettelahoi tamikalan lah na onae ka panue han. Na hmaunawngha buet touh cettakhai awh nateh, na imthungnaw hanelah cakang hah phawt nateh cet awh.
34 And bring your yongest brother vnto me, that I may knowe that ye are no spies, but true men: so will I deliuer you your brother, and yee shall occupie in the land.
Kanawpoung e hateh, kai koe thokhai awh, hat pawiteh katuetkung lah awm laipalah tamikalan doeh tie ka panue han. Hate ram dawk hno na yo awh han na ti pou, telah ati awh.
35 And as they emptied their sacks, behold, euery mans bundel of money was in his sacke: and when they and their father sawe the bundels of their money, they were afrayde.
Hahoi, cawngkonaw hah a rabu awh lahun navah, pouk laipalah tangka tangoung hah cawngko dawk ao teh, ahnimouh hoi a na pa ni tangka tangoung hah a hmu awh toteh a lungpuen awh.
36 Then Iaakob their father said to them, Ye haue robbed me of my children: Ioseph is not, and Simeon is not, and ye will take Beniamin: all these things are against me.
A na pa Jakop ni nangmouh ni ka canaw koung na kahma sak awh toe. Joseph awm hoeh toe, Simeon hai awm hoeh toe. Benjamin totouh ceikhai han na kâcai awh. Hete hnonaw pueng ni na ratet toe, telah ati.
37 Then Reuben answered his father, saying, Slay my two sonnes, if I bring him not to thee againe: deliuer him to mine hand, and I will bring him to thee againe.
Reuben ni a na pa koevah, nang koe ka thokhai hoehpawiteh, ka capa roi heh thet yawkaw. Ahni heh ka kut dawk na poe nateh, nang koe bout ka thokhai han, telah ati.
38 But he said, My sonne shall not go downe with you: for his brother is dead, and he is left alone: if death come vnto him by the way which ye goe, then ye shall bring my gray head with sorow vnto the graue. (Sheol h7585)
Hatei ahni ni, ka capa heh nangmouh koe cet van mahoeh, a hmau a due toe, ahni dueng doeh toe. Na ceinae lam dawk runae na kâhmo pawiteh, ka sampo heh lungmathoenae phuen dawk na loum sak awh han toe, telah ati. (Sheol h7585)
