< Genesis 48 >

1 Againe after this, one sayd to Ioseph, Loe, thy father is sicke: then hee tooke with him his two sonnes, Manasseh and Ephraim.
Atue nasetto maw oh pacoengah, Nam pa loe ngannat, tiah Joseph khaeah thuih pae o; to pongah a caa Manasseh hoi Ephraim to kawk moe, a caeh haih.
2 Also one told Iaakob, and said, Behold, thy sonne Ioseph is come to thee, and Israel tooke his strength vnto him and sate vpon the bed.
Jakob khaeah, Na capa Joseph nang khaeah angzoh, tiah thuih pae o; to naah Israel loe tha pathok moe, a iih haih ahmuen ah anghnut.
3 Then Iaakob sayde vnto Ioseph, God almightie appeared vnto me at Luz in the land of Canaan, and blessed me.
Jakob mah Joseph khaeah, Kanaan prae Luz vangpui ah Thacak Sithaw kai khaeah angphong moe, tahamhoihaih ang paek,
4 And he sayde vnto me, Behold, I wil make thee fruitefull, and will multiplie thee, and will make a great number of people of thee, and will giue this lande vnto thy seede after thee for an euerlasting possession.
anih mah kai khaeah, Khenah, athaih kang thaisak moe, kang pungsak han, kami pop parai acaeng ah kang sak moe, angzo han koi na caanawk khaeah, hae prae hae dungzan ah toep hanah kang paek han, tiah ang naa.
5 And now thy two sonnes, Manasseh and Ephraim, which are borne vnto thee in the lande of Egypt, before I came to thee into Egypt, shall be mine, as Reuben and Simeon are mine.
Kai haeah kang zo ai naah Izip prae ah na sak ih na caa Manasseh hoi Ephraim loe ka caa ah ni om hoi tih; Reuben hoi Simeon baktih toengah, nihnik loe ka caa ah om hoi tih.
6 But the linage, which thou hast begotten after them, shalbe thine: they shall be called after the names of their brethren in their inheritance.
To pacoengah na sak ih na caa loe nangmah ih hmuen ah om tih, a toep o han koi qawknawk loe angmah ih nawkamya ahmin hoiah nawnto kroek o hmaek tih.
7 Nowe when I came from Padan, Rahel died vpon mine hande in the lande of Canaan, by the way when there was but halfe a dayes iourney of grounde to come to Ephrath: and I buryed her there in the way to Ephrath: the same is Beth-lehem.
Padan hoiah kang zoh, Kanaan prae thungah ka caeh li moe, Ephrath vangpui to phak tom naah, nam no Rachel loe ka taengah duek; to pongah anih to Bethlehem, tiah thuih ih, Ephrath caehhaih loklam ah ka phum sut, tiah a naa.
8 Then Israel beheld Iosephs sonnes and sayd, Whose are these?
Israel mah, Joseph ih caanawk hnuk naah, Mi hnik aa? tiah a naa.
9 And Ioseph sayd vnto his father, They are my sonnes, which God hath giuen mee here. Then he sayd, I pray thee, bring them to me, that I may blesse them:
Joseph mah ampa khaeah, Sithaw mah hae prae ah ang paek ih ka caa hnik ni, tiah a naa. Israel mah, tahamhoihaih paek hanah, ka taengah angzo haih ah, tiah a naa.
10 (For the eyes of Israel were dimme for age, so that hee coulde not well see) Then he caused them to come to him, and he kissed them and embraced them.
Israel loe mitong boeh pongah a mik tha om ai boeh, to pongah kho hnu thai ai boeh; Joseph mah a caa hnik to anih khaeah caeh haih, ampa mah nihnik to mok moe, takop.
11 And Israel sayde vnto Ioseph, I had not thought to haue seene thy face: yet lo, God hath shewed me also thy seede.
Israel mah Joseph khaeah, Na mikhmai hnuk han ka poek ai boeh, khenah, Sithaw mah vaihi na caa hnik to ang hnuksak boeh, tiah a naa.
12 And Ioseph tooke them away from his knees, and did reuerence downe to the ground.
Joseph mah a caa hnik to ampa ih khokhu salakah suek moe, long ah lu takhumsak.
13 Then tooke Ioseph them both, Ephraim in his right hand towarde Israels left hand, and Manasseh in his left hand toward Israels right hand, so he brought them vnto him.
Joseph mah nihnik to lak moe, Ephraim to a bantang ban hoi patawnh pacoengah, ampa ih bangqoi bangah a suek, Manasseh to a banqoi ban hoiah patawnh moe, ampa ih bantang bangah a suek.
14 But Israel stretched out his right hand, and layde it on Ephraims head, which was the yonger, and his left hande vpon Manassehs head (directing his handes of purpose) for Manasseh was the elder.
Manasseh loe calu ah oh, toe Israel mah palunghahaih hoiah a ban to payuengh moe, a bantang ban to Ephraim ih lu ah koeng pacoengah, a banqoi ban to Manaaseh ih lu ah a koeng.
15 Also he blessed Ioseph and sayde, The God, before whom my fathers Abraham and Izhak did walke, the God, which hath fed me al my life long vnto this day, blesse thee.
Joseph to tahamhoihaih a paek, Kam pa Abraham hoi Issak mah bok ih Sithaw, ka hing thung vaihni ni khoek to kai khenzawnkung Sithaw,
16 The Angel, which hath deliuered me from all euill, blesse the children, and let my name be named vpon them, and the name of my fathers Abraham and Izhak, that they may growe as fish into a multitude in the middes of the earth.
zit kathok raihaih congca thung hoi kai pahlongkung van kami mah, hae ih nawkta hnik hae tahamhoihaih paek nasoe; nihnik loe kai ih ahmin, kam pa Abraham hoi Issak ih ahmin to phui o nasoe, long ah pop parai ah pung o nasoe, tiah a naa.
17 But when Ioseph sawe that his father layde his right hande vpon the head of Ephraim, it displeased him: and he stayed his fathers hand to remooue it from Ephraims head to Manassehs head.
Ampa mah Ephraim nuiah bantang ban to koeng pae, tiah Joseph mah hnuk naah ampa nuiah palung hoih ai; to pongah Ephraim lu ih ampa ih ban to lak moe, Manasseh ih lu nuiah koeng pae.
18 And Ioseph sayde vnto his father, Not so, my father, for this is the eldest: put thy right hand vpon his head.
Joseph mah ampa khaeah, Pa, to tih na ai ni; anih loe calu ni, to pongah anih lu nuiah na bantang ban to koeng ah, tiah a naa.
19 But his father refused, and sayd, I know well, my sonne, I know well: he shalbe also a people, and he shalbe great likewise: but his yonger brother shalbe greater then he, and his seede shall be full of nations.
Toe ampa mah angmaak pae; Ka panoek, ka capa, ka panoek; anih doeh kami ah angcoeng ueloe, paroeai len tahang tih; toe amnawk loe anih pongah len kue tih, anih ih caanawk loe pop parai acaeng ah angcoeng tih, tiah a naa.
20 So he blessed them that day, and sayde, In thee Israel shall blesse, and say, God make thee as Ephraim and as Manasseh. and he set Ephraim before Manasseh.
Nang loe Sithaw mah Ephraim hoi Manasseh baktih toengah omsak nasoe, Israel caanawk loe nang rang hoiah tahamhoihaih hnu o tih, tiah to na niah nihcae to tahamhoihaih a paek; to tiah Ephraim to Manasseh hmaa ah suek lat.
21 Then Israel said vnto Ioseph, Behold, I die, and God shall be with you, and bring you againe vnto the land of your fathers.
To pacoengah Israel mah, Joseph khaeah, Kai loe ka duek han boeh; toe Sithaw mah na om haih ueloe, nam panawk ih prae ah na hoi let tih.
22 Moreouer, I haue giuen vnto thee one portion aboue thy brethren, which I gate out of the hand of the Amorite by my sworde and by my bowe.
Toe sumsen hoi kalii hoiah Amor kaminawk khaeah ka lak ih kahoih prae loe nam yanawk han ih na ai ah, nang han ih ni kang paek, tiah a naa.
