Exodus 33
1 And YHWH speaks to Moses, “Go, ascend from this [place], you and the people, whom you have brought up out of the land of Egypt, to the land which I have sworn to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, saying, I give it to your seed.
BOEIPA loh Moses taengah, “He lamloh namah cet lamtah nong laeh. Egypt khohmuen lamkah na khuen pilnam te khohmuen la khuen laeh. Te te Abraham taengah, Isaak taeng neh Jakob taengah ka toemngam tih, “Na tiingan taengah ka paek ni,” ka ti nah.
2 And I have sent a Messenger before you, and have cast out the Canaanite, the Amorite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite.
Nang mikhmuh ah puencawn kan tueih vetih Kanaan neh Amori khaw, Khitti neh Perizzi, Khivee neh Jebusi khaw ka haek bitni.
3 [Go up] to a land flowing with milk and honey, for I do not go up in your midst, for you [are] a stiff-necked people—lest I consume you in the way.”
Suktui neh khoitui aka long khohmuen lam khaw na khui ah ka pongpa mahpawh. Pilnam he na rhawn mangkhak aih tih longpueng ah nang kang khap lah ve,” a ti nah.
4 And the people hear this sad thing, and mourn; and none puts his ornaments on him.
Pilnam loh ol thae he a yaak vaengah nguekcoi uh tih hlang loh a pum dongkah a cangen khaw oi uh pawh.
5 And YHWH says to Moses, “Say to the sons of Israel: You [are] a stiff-necked people; [in] one moment I could come up into your midst and could have consumed you; and now, put down your ornaments from off you, and I know what I do to you”;
Te dongah BOEIPA loh Moses taengah, “Israel ca rhoek te thui pah. Nangmih he rhawn thah pilnam ni. Na khui ah mikhaptok ah vai ka pongpa vetih nang kan thup ve. Na cangen khaw na pum dong lamloh pit laeh. Na taengah mebang ka saii ham khaw ka ming ngawn,” a ti nah.
6 and the sons of Israel take off their ornaments at Mount Horeb.
Te dongah Israel ca rhoek loh a cangen te Horeb tlang ah a dul uh.
7 And Moses takes the tent, and has stretched it out at the outside of the camp, far off from the camp, and has called it, “Tent of Meeting”; and it has come to pass, everyone seeking YHWH goes out to the Tent of Meeting, which [is] at the outside of the camp.
Moses loh dap te a puen tih rhaehhmuen lamkah a lakhla la rhaehhmuen vongvoel ah amah la a tuk. Te te tingtunnah dap la a khue tih BOEIPA aka dawt boeih loh rhaehhmuen vongvoel kah tingtunnah dap te a paan.
8 And it has come to pass, at the going out of Moses to the tent, all the people rise, and have stood, each at the opening of his tent, and have looked expectingly after Moses, until his going into the tent.
Moses te dap la a caeh vaengah pilnam pum khaw thoo uh tih hlang he amah kah dap thohka ah pai uh. Te vaengah dap khuila a kun hil Moses hnuk te a paelki uh.
9 And it has come to pass, at the going in of Moses to the tent, the pillar of the cloud comes down, and has stood at the opening of the tent, and He has spoken with Moses;
Dap khuila Moses a kun van neh cingmai tung ha suntla. Te vaengah dap thohka ah pai tih Moses te a voek.
10 and all the people have seen the pillar of the cloud standing at the opening of the tent, and all the people have risen and bowed themselves, each at the opening of his tent.
Dap thohka kah aka pai cingmai tung te pilnam loh boeih a hmuh. Te dongah pilnam te boeih thoo tih hlang he amah kah dap thohka ah ni a bakop uh coeng.
11 And YHWH has spoken to Moses face to face, as a man speaks to his friend; and he has turned back to the camp, and his minister Joshua, son of Nun, a youth, does not depart out of the tent.
Te vaengah hlang loh a hui a voek bangla BOEIPA loh Moses te a hmai, hmai ah a voek. Te phoeiah rhaehhmuen la mael. Tedae anih kah tueihyoeih Nun capa cadong Joshua tah dap khui lamloh nong pawh.
12 And Moses says to YHWH, “See, You are saying to me, Bring up this people, and You have not caused me to know whom You send with me; and You have said, I have known you by name, and you have also found grace in My eyes.
Te phoeiah Moses loh BOEIPA te, “Namah loh kai taengah pilnam he khuen laeh,” na ti ne. Tedae kai taengah nan tueih ham te khaw kai nan ming sak moenih. Te vaengah namah loh, 'Na ming neh kan ming tih ka mik dongkah mikdaithen khaw na hmuh,’ na ti.
13 And now, if, please, I have found grace in Your eyes, please cause me to know Your way, and I know You, so that I find grace in Your eyes, and consider that this nation [is] Your people”;
Na mikhmuh ah mikdaithen ka hmuh van coeng atah na longpuei te kai m'ming sak laeh. Namah kan ming daengah man na mikhmuh ah mikdaithen khaw ka hmuh ve. Namtom he na pilnam la hmuh mai,” a ti nah.
14 and He says, “My presence goes, and I have given rest to you.”
Tedae, “Ka mikhmuh kah he a caeh uh daengah ni nang te kan duem sak eh,” a ti nah.
15 And he says to Him, “If Your presence is not going—do not take us up from this [place];
Te phoeiah amah te, “Na mikhmuh kah te a caeh pawt atah he lamloh kaimih nan khuen pawt mako.
16 and in what is it known now, that I have found grace in Your eyes—I and Your people—is it not in Your going with us? And we have been distinguished—I and Your people—from all the people who [are] on the face of the ground.”
Kai neh na pilnam loh na mikhmuh ah mikdaithen ka hmuh te me nen nim a ming eh. Kaimih taengkah na pongpa nen pawt nim kai neh na pilnam tah diklai hman kah pilnam cungkuem lamloh ka hoep uh tangloeng he,” a ti nah.
17 And YHWH says to Moses, “Even this thing which you have spoken I do; for you have found grace in My eyes, and I know you by name.”
Te dongah BOEIPA loh Moses te, “Ka mikhmuh ah mikdaithen na hmuh tih na ming neh kam ming dongah ol he na thui bangla ka saii bitni,” a ti nah.
18 And he says, “Please show me Your glory”;
Te vaengah, “Na thangpomnah te kai m'hmuh sak laem,” a ti nah.
19 and He says, “I cause all My goodness to pass before your face, and have called concerning the Name of YHWH before you, and favored him whom I favor, and loved him whom I love.”
Te dongah BOEIPA loh, “Ka thennah boeih he na mikhmuh ah ka phoe vetih na mikhmuh ah Yahweh ming he ka doek ni. Ka rhen tueng ni ka rhen vetih ka haidam tueng ni ka haidam eh?,” a ti nah.
20 He also says, “You are unable to see My face, for man does not see Me and live”;
Tedae, “Ka maelhmai hmuh ham na coeng moenih, hlang loh kai m'hmu mai cakhaw a hing hae moenih,” a ti nah.
21 YHWH also says, “Behold, a place [is] by Me, and you have stood on the rock,
Te phoeiah BOEIPA loh, “Kamah taengkah hmuen ah he lungpang soah khaw pai mai.
22 and it has come to pass, in the passing by of My glory, that I have set you in a cleft of the rock, and spread out My hands over you until My passing by,
Tedae ka thangpomnah loh a pah phai vaengah lungpang rhaep ah nang kang khueh ni. Te vaengah ka khum hil nang soah ka kut kang khuk bitni.
23 and I have turned aside My hands, and you have seen My back parts, and My face is not seen.”
Ka kut ka khoe van neh ka nam na hmuh ni. Tedae ka maelhmai tah tueng mahpawh,” a ti nah.
