Genesis 12
1 And the Lord said to Abram, Go forth out of your land and out of your kindred, and out of the house of your father, and come into the land which I will show you.
Angraeng mah Abram khaeah, Na prae, nangmah ih canawk hoi na imthung takohnawk to caehtaak loe, kang patuek han ih prae ah caeh ah.
2 And I will make you a great nation, and I will bless you and magnify your name, and you shall be blessed.
Acaeng kalen kami ah kang sak han, tahamhoihaih kang paek moe, na hmin kang lensak han; tahamhoihaih na hnu tih.
3 And I will bless those that bless you, and curse those that curse you, and in you shall all the tribes of the earth be blessed.
Nang tahamhoihaih paek kaminawk to tahamhoihaih ka paek moe, nang tangoeng kaminawk to ka tangoeng han; nang rang hoiah long ah kaom kaminawk boih tahamhoih o tih.
4 And Abram went as the Lord spoke to him, and Lot departed with him, and Abram was seventy-five years old, when he went out of Charrhan.
Angraeng mah anih khaeah thuih pae ih lok baktih toengah, Abram mah loe caeh; Lot doeh anih hoi nawnto caeh; Haran vangpui hoi tacawt naah, Abram loe saning qui sarih, pangato oh boeh.
5 And Abram took Sara his wife, and Lot the son of his brother, and all their possessions, as many as they had got, and every soul which they had got in Charrhan, and they went forth to go into the land of Chanaan.
Abram loe a zu Sarai, amya capa Lot, a tawnh ih hmuennawk boih, Haran vangpui hoiah kawk ih kaminawk boih Kanaan prae ah caeh haih, Kanaan prae to a phak o.
6 And Abram traversed the land lengthwise as far as the place Sychem, to the high oak, and the Chananites then inhabited the land.
Abram loe kahoih Shekem ih ahmuen ah caeh moe, Moreh ih azawn to phak naah, Kanaan kaminawk loe to prae thungah khosak o boeh.
7 And the Lord appeared to Abram, and said to him, I will give this land to your seed. And Abram built an altar there to the Lord who appeared to him.
Abram khaeah Angraeng angphong moe, hae prae hae na caanawk khaeah ka paek han, tiah a naa. To pongah anih khaeah amtueng, Angraeng hanah to ahmuen ah hmaicam maeto a sak pae.
8 And he departed thence to the mountain eastward of Baethel, and there he pitched his tent in Baethel near the sea, and Aggai toward the east, and there he built an altar to the Lord, and called on the name of the Lord.
Anih loe to ahmuen hoiah angthawk moe, Bethel ni angyae bang kaom mae ah caeh pacoengah, ni duembang kaom Bethel vangpui hoi ni angyae bang kaom Ai vangpui salakah, kahni im to a sak; to ahmuen ah Angraeng khaeah hmaicam maeto a sak moe, Angraeng ih ahmin to palawk.
9 And Abram departed and went and encamped in the wilderness.
Abram loe to ahmuen hoiah angthawk let moe, aloih bangah caeh tatuk.
10 And there was a famine in the land, and Abram went down to Egypt to sojourn there, because the famine prevailed in the land.
To nathuem ah Kanaan prae thungah khokhahaih to oh; prae thungah khokha nung parai pongah, Abram loe Izip prae ah khosak han caeh tathuk.
11 And it came to pass when Abram drew near to enter into Egypt, Abram said to Sara his wife, I know that you are a fair woman.
Izip prae thung akun tom naah, a zu Sarai khaeah, Nang loe kranghoih nongpata ah na oh, tito ka panoek;
12 It shall come to pass then that when the Egyptians shall see you, they shall say, This is his wife, and they shall kill me, but they shall save you alive.
Izip kaminawk mah nang ang hnuk o naah, Hae nongpata loe anih ih zu ni, tiah thui o tih; nihcae kai hae na hum o ueloe, nang loe na loih o sak tih.
13 Say, therefore, I am his sister, that it may be well with me on account of you, and my soul shall live because of you.
To pongah kai loe anih ih tanuh ni, tiah thui ah; to tiah ni nang rang hoiah kai hae kahoih ah na khenzawn o ueloe, ka hinghaih loih tih, tiah a naa.
14 And it came to pass when Abram entered into Egypt—the Egyptians having seen his wife that she was very beautiful—
Abram Izip prae thung akun naah, Izip kaminawk mah anih ih zu to kranghoih parai ah hnuk o.
15 that the princes of Pharao saw her, and praised her to Pharao and brought her into the house of Pharao.
Faro ih angraengnawk mah anih to hnuk o naah, Faro khaeah thuih pae o, nongpata to Faro siangpahrang im ah caeh o haih.
16 And they treated Abram well on her account, and he had sheep, and calves, and asses, and menservants, and women-servants, and mules, and camels.
Anih pongah Abram to Faro mah kahoih ah khetzawn; Abram hanah tuunawk, maitaw taenawk, laa hrang ataenawk, tamna nongpanawk hoi tamna nongpatanawk, laa hrang amnonawk hoi kaengkuu hrangnawk to a paek.
17 And God afflicted Pharao with great and severe afflictions, and his house, because of Sara, Abram's wife.
Toe Abram ih zu Sarai pongah, Angraeng mah Faro hoi a imthung takoh nuiah kasae nathaih to phaksak.
18 And Pharao having called Abram, said, What is this you have done to me, that you did not tell me that she was your wife?
To pongah Faro mah Abram to kawk moe, Tipongah hae tiah nang sak loe? Tipongah anih loe ka zu ni, tiah nang thui ai loe? tiah a naa.
19 Therefore did you say, She is my sister? and I took her for a wife to myself; and now, behold, your wife is before you, take her and go quickly away.
Tikhoe anih loe ka tanuh ni, tiah nang thuih moe, ka zu ah nang laksak loe? To pongah vaihi na zu hae lah loe, caeh lai ah, tiah a naa.
20 And Pharao gave charge to men concerning Abram, to join in sending him forward, and his wife, and all that he had.
Abram kawng pongah Faro mah angmah ih kaminawk khaeah thuih pae ih lok baktih toengah, nihcae mah Abram to a zu hoi a tawnh ih hmuennawk hoi nawnto patoeh o ving.
