< Exodus 19 >
1 In the third month of the going out of the sons of Israel from the land of Egypt, in this day they have come into the wilderness of Sinai,
Israel miten Egypt gamsung ahin dalhah kalseo lhani lhin'in Sinai mun gamthip ahung lhung atovin ahi.
2 and they journey from Rephidim, and enter the wilderness of Sinai, and encamp in the wilderness; and Israel encamps there before the mountain.
Rephidim ngahmun ahin sukeh un ahin dalha tauvin, chuin Sinai mun'na ngahmun a kisem uvin hichu Sinai ngahmun tin aminsah uve.
3 And Moses has gone up to God, and YHWH calls to him out of the mountain, saying, “Thus you say to the house of Jacob, and declare to the sons of Israel:
Mose molchung lam akaltou tan Pakai toh agakimu ton ahile, Pakaiyin molchung'a kon'in ahin kouvin aseije, “Thupeh hicheng hi; Jacob insung le Israel mite heng'a seipeh tauvin:
4 You have seen that which I have done to the Egyptians, and [how] I carry you on eagles’ wings and bring you to Myself.
“Egypt mite chung'a ipiti lamdolla na katoh, nang hon na musoh kei uve. Keiman nangho muvan lai lhaving'a ka hin pui uve ti namu chenset tauvin ahi.”
5 And now, if you really listen to My voice, then you have kept My covenant, and have been a special treasure to Me more than all the peoples, for all the earth [is] Mine;
Chule tua hi kathu nangai uva kakitepna nakoi jing uva ahileh, nangho hi vannoi mite jouse lah'a keima dia atumbeh'a naum diu; ajeh chu vannoi leiset pumpi hi keima'a ahi.”
6 and you are to Me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation: these [are] the words which you speak to the sons of Israel.”
“Chule keima lenggam machu nangho naleng chan diu, kagam theng nalo ding'u ahi. Hiche thuhi nangman Israel mite heng'a naseipeh teiding ahi,” ati.
7 And Moses comes, and calls for [the] elderly of the people, and sets before them all these words which YHWH has commanded him;
Chuin Mose molchung akon'in akumsuh'in Israel sung'a upa ho akou khom'in Pakaiyin a thupeh chengse abonchan a seipeh soh kei uve.
8 and all the people answer together and say, “All that YHWH has spoken we do”; and Moses returns the words of the people to YHWH.
Chuin amahon adonbut cheh uvin, “Ijakai Pakai thupeh bang'a keihon kabol diu ahi,” atiuve.
9 And YHWH says to Moses, “Behold, I am coming to you in the thickness of the cloud, so that the people hear in My speaking with you, and also believe in you for all time”; and Moses declares the words of the people to YHWH.
Chuin Pakaiyin Mose heng'a aseijin, “Keima naheng'a meilhang kiheh bang'a kahung ding, Nangma Mose kahin houpi teng Israel miten ajah cheh diu, chuteng amahon jong nangma nahin tahsan jing diu ahitai,” ati. Mose'n jong Israel miten adonbut'na chu Pakai heng'a aseijin ahi.
10 And YHWH says to Moses, “Go to the people and you have sanctified them today and tomorrow, and they have washed their garments,
Chuin Pakajin Mose heng'a asei in, “Kumsuh inlang keima kahung nading'in Israel mite gongtup tan, tuni le jing nikhoa din seipeh uvin chule avon jeng u-jong kisop theng cheh u-hen,” ati.
11 and have been prepared for the third day; for on the third day YHWH comes down on Mount Sinai before the eyes of all the people.
“Nithum lhin'nia ding'in kigontup sah soh kei uvin, nithum lhin niteng a mitmu tah uva Pakai chu Sinai Mol chung'a pat hung kumlha ding ahi tipeh'un,” ati.
12 And you have made a border [for] the people all around, saying, Take heed to yourselves, going up into the mountain or coming against its extremity; whoever is coming against the mountain is certainly put to death;
“Mipiho abonchauvin akimvel'uva melchih'na sempeh'in lang, seijin, kichih thei un! Koima molchung lam'a kaldoh hih hel'un chule akim vellah jeng jong koiman natham khah theilou diunahi. Koi hile molchung tham khachan chu thi jeng ding ahi,” ati.
13 a hand does not come against him, for he is certainly stoned or shot through, whether beast or man—it does not live; in the prolonging of the ram’s horn they go up into the mountain.”
“Melchihna pal kallhah khut kiti phot'in atohkhah'a ahile, hichejeh'a chu; song'a selih jeng ding, ahilou jong le, thalpi'a kap lih ding gancha hihen mihem hile hitabang'a chonchu ahing'a kiumsah ngailou ding ahi, tin seipeh un. Sumkon ahung kimut gin apat mipi jong molchung lam'a hung kitol diu ahiye.”
14 And Moses comes down from the mountain to the people, and sanctifies the people, and they wash their garments;
Mose'n jong mipi lam chu ahin jonsuh tan. Aman mipi thenso'na anei jin, mipihon jong ama ama von cheh akisop theng uvin ahi.
15 and he says to the people, “Be prepared for the third day, do not come near to a woman.”
Aman mipi heng'a asei jin, Nithum lhin nia ding in ki gotup cheh uvin chule numei angsung ki tiajong na lut louhel ding'u ahi,” ati.
16 And it comes to pass, on the third day, while it is morning, that there are voices, and lightnings, and a heavy cloud on the mountain, and the sound of a very strong horn; and all the people who [are] in the camp tremble.
Nithum lhin'ni jingkah khovah lam'in vahthamjol aki thing'in kolphe avah in, molchung vum chu meilhang'in atom lha jeng tan ahi. Sumkon hatah'in ahung ging tan ahile, ngahmun sung lam'a um mipi abonchauvin akicha lheh jeng tauve.
17 And Moses brings out the people from the camp to meet God, and they station themselves at the lower part of the mountain,
Mose'n jong mipi abonchan Pathen toh kimaito ding'in ahin pui uvin, chuin mipi abonchauvin molchung kipatna lam'a chun adding den gam tauve.
18 and Mount Sinai [is] wholly [in] smoke from the presence of YHWH, who has come down on it in fire, and its smoke goes up as smoke of the furnace, and the whole mountain trembles exceedingly;
Sinai molchung akon in Pakai chu meikong'in ahung kum lhan ahile, lhum sung'a kon'na meikhu bang'in ahung khudoh'in ahintomlha jeng tan, ling jong akihot lha jeng'in ahi.
19 and the sound of the horn is going on, and [is] very strong; Moses speaks, and God answers him with a voice.
Sumkon gin chu ahat cheh cheh jeng tan ahile, Mose jong akipat'in hiti hin aseije, van gin kithong lah akon'in Pathen'in ahin houpin ahi.
20 And YHWH comes down on Mount Sinai, to the top of the mountain, and YHWH calls for Moses to the top of the mountain, and Moses goes up.
Pakai chu Sinai molchung vum'a kon'in ahung kumsuh tan chuin, Molchung vum'a kon'in Pakaiyin Mose ahin kouvin ahi. Mose jong akipatdoh'in molchung lam'a chun akal touvin ahi.
21 And YHWH says to Moses, “Go down, protest to the people, lest they break through to YHWH to see, and many of them have fallen;
Pakaiyin Mose heng'a asei in, “Kumsuh inlang mipi heng'a seipeh loijin, ajeh chu Pakai ahinmu nomuva pal kigen khu ahin tumlhah ngai uva ahile thigam bep ding'u ahiye,” ati.
22 and also the priests who are coming near to YHWH sanctify themselves, lest YHWH break forth on them.”
Chule thempu ho jeng jong atahsao amacheh kithenso uva eihin nailut thei diu bou ahi. Chutile Pakaiyin amaho lam pal chu atumkeh lou ding ahi, ati.
23 And Moses says to YHWH, “The people [are] unable to come up to Mount Sinai, for You have protested to us, saying, Make a border [for] the mountain, then you have sanctified it.”
Mose'n jong Pakai heng'a aseijin, ahinlah Pakai in, mipi abonchauva Sinai molchung'a hung kal theilou diu ahi. Ajeh chu nangma thupeh bang'a molchung kimvella pal gen uvin, tia nei thupeh sa'u ahiye, ati.
24 And YHWH says to him, “Go, descend, then you have come up, you and Aaron with you; and the priests and the people do not break through to come up to YHWH, lest He break forth on them.”
Ahinlah Pakaiyin Mose heng'a aseiyin. “Chesuh inlang Aaron gakipuiyin lang hinki lhon pitan. Amavang mipi abonchauvin thupeh neijin lang khat cha jeng jong paltum keh'a Pakai lam'a hung theilou ding'u ahiye,” ati.
25 And Moses goes down to the people and speaks to them.
Pakajin athupeh bang in Mose achesuh in mipi ho heng'a aga seipeh soh kei uve.
