< Exodus 1 >
1 And these [are] the names of the sons of Israel who are coming into Egypt; each man and his household have come with Jacob:
Israel mite (hichu, Jacob chapate), ama insung mi cheh hin kipuija Egypt gam-sung'a apau toh kitollut ho min chu hicheng hi ahiuve:
2 Reuben, Simeon, Levi, and Judah,
Reuben, simeon, Levi, Judah.
3 Issachar, Zebulun, and Benjamin,
Issachar, Zebulun, Benjamin
4 Dan, and Naphtali, Gad, and Asher.
Dan, Naphtali, Gad chule Asher amaho cheng hi ahiuve.
5 And all the persons coming out of the thigh of Jacob are seventy persons; as for Joseph, he was in Egypt.
Abonchauvin, Egypt gamsung'a Jacob chilhah chengse chu som sagi alhing'un chule Joseph vang agamsung'a ana um jingsa ahitai.
6 And Joseph dies, and all his brothers, and all that generation;
Phat chomkhat jouvin, Joseph le asopi chengse athigam tauvin, hiche khang mite se chu akichai tan ahi.
7 and the sons of Israel have been fruitful, and they teem, and multiply, and are very, very mighty, and the land is filled with them.
Ahinlah ason achilhah teu, Israel chate chun tu le cha tampi anei tauvin apung lheh jeng un, ahung hatdoh cheh cheh un gamsung pumpi ahin lodim tauve.
8 And there rises a new king over Egypt, who has not known Joseph,
Egypt gamsunga chun Joseph chung chang thule ana toh ho hephalou leng thah khat thaneina ahung chang tan ahi.
9 and he says to his people, “Behold, the people of the sons of Israel [are] more numerous and mighty than we.
Amapa chun amite henga thu aseijin, “Vetem'un! Israel mite hi eiho sang'in apung'un chule eiho sang'in ahat lheh jeng tauve.
10 Give help! Let us act wisely concerning it, lest it multiply, and it has come to pass, when war happens, that it has been joined, even it, to those hating us, and has fought against us, and has gone up out of the land.”
Amaho hi apunbe lou na diuvin, tohgon khat nei tauhite. Achuti louva ahile hung hatdoh untin, chule gal hung um taleh, imelma teu ahin panpi diu eihin dou'uva gamsunga kon'a jamdoh ding ahiuve,” ati.
11 And they set princes of tribute over it, so as to afflict it with their burdens, and it builds the store-cities of Pithom and Rameses for Pharaoh;
Hijeh chun Egypt miten Isarel chate jouse soh in amangcha tauvin, achung'uva toh vaipo mikhanse tah tah ho apan sah un, chutobang bolgim na soh natoh akon'a chu suhnem ding akinem'un, namphu chang'in lengpa thilkhol na ding Pithom leh Rameses khopi chu asah sah uvin ahi.
12 and as they afflict it, so it multiplies, and so it breaks forth, and they are distressed because of the sons of Israel;
Ahinlah Egypt mite'n amaho asuhgim chan'un apungbe uvin akithejal cheh jo tauvin ahi, Egypt mite chu kichat nan aum jo tauvin ahi.
13 and the Egyptians cause the sons of Israel to serve with rigor,
Chutah chun Egypt miten Israel mite chu ngailut na beihel'in thohgim hahsa athohsah uvin na atohsah un ahi.
14 and make their lives bitter in hard service, in clay, and in brick, and in every [kind] of service in the field; all their service in which they have served [is] with rigor.
Aki manchah na jouse uva gimna alhun sah un, bon ngan achilsah un, leilhang asemsah un, loujaova natoh jouse atohsah un, atoh nalam jouseuva gimbolna achansah tauvin ahi.
15 And the king of Egypt speaks to the midwives, the Hebrewesses (of whom the name of the first [is] Shiphrah, and the name of the second Puah),
Chuin Pharaoh, Egypt lengpan Hebrew mi nao dom teni Shiphrah leh Puah henga hiche thupeh hi aneiyin:
16 and says, “When you cause the Hebrew women to bear, and have looked on the children, if it [is] a son, then you have put him to death; and if it [is] a daughter, then she has lived.”
“Hebrew numei hon nao anei uva nao dom'a napan teng lhon le, hichu phatah in vechil lhon in lang, naosen chu pasal ahileh natha lhon ding; numei ahile vang na hinghoi lhon ding ahi,” ati.
17 And the midwives fear God, and have not done as the king of Egypt has spoken to them, and they keep the boys alive;
Ama vang nao dom teni chun Pathen agin lhon jeh chun, lengpa thupeh chu anahsah lhon tapon, naosen pasal'a hungpeng lha ho jong chu ahinghoi lhon tan ahi.
18 and the king of Egypt calls for the midwives and says to them, “Why have you done this thing, and keep the boys alive?”
Chu in lengpan nao dom teni chu aheng'a akouvin, “Ipi jeh a hiche hi nabol lhon hitam?” tin adong'in, chule “Ipi jeh a naosen pasal ho chu, nahinghoi lhon ham?” tin ajah lhon'a aseiyin ahi.
19 And the midwives say to Pharaoh, “Because the Hebrew women [are] not as the Egyptian women, for they [are] lively; before the midwife comes to them—they have borne!”
Naodom tenin adonbut in “Hebrew numei ho hi Egypt numei hotoh abang pouve, amaho hi athoh hat un aheng'u akilhun masang'in amaho le ama ho beilam tah in ana ki doplhah jitauvin aphatchan kalap ji lhonpoi,” tin asei lhon'e.
20 And God does good to the midwives, and the people multiply, and are very mighty;
Pathen chu naodom teni din aphalheh jeng'in, Israelte chu apungbe cheh cheh tauvin ahile, athanei nau jong ahung hatdoh cheh cheh jeng tan ahi.
21 and it comes to pass, because the midwives have feared God, that He makes households for them;
Naodom teni in Pathen agin lhon jeh chun, Pathen in amani chu ama a ama a ding cheh insung asem dohpeh lhon'in ahi.
22 and Pharaoh lays a charge on all his people, saying, “Every son who is born—you cast him into the River, and every daughter you keep alive.”
Chuin Pharaoh in amite jouse hiche thupeh hi aneiyin: “Hebrew naosen'a penglha pasal kiti phot chu Nile Vadung lam'a na pailhah jeng diu, ahin lah numeiya hung peng chengse vang chu hing hoiyun,” ati.
