Genesis 29
1 And Jacob lifts up his feet, and goes toward the land of the sons of the east;
Hichun Jacob akhol che chu abanjom in solam mite gam chu ahung lhung tai.
2 and he looks, and behold, a well in the field, and behold, there [are] three droves of a flock crouching by it, for they water the droves from that well, and the great stone [is] on the mouth of the well.
Chuin aman agah ven ahile loulai a Twisam amun akomma chun kelngoi hon loi thum'a akol jong amun hiche gancha ho chu twikulla don ding twi ngah ahiuve, chule twisam chu songpi lentah in adal khum ahi.
3 (When all the droves have been gathered there, and they have rolled the stone from off the mouth of the well, and have watered the flock, then they have turned back the stone on the mouth of the well to its place.)
Hitia chu kelngoi hon ho abonna ahung kisuh kimteng uleh kelngoi ching hon twikhuh kamsin songpi chu akhin doh jiuva kelngoi te twi achip sah jiuva achipva teng ule song chu akikoi na ngai ngai twikhuh kam a chu ale khin lut kit jiu ahi.
4 And Jacob says to them, “My brothers, where [are] you from?” And they say, “We [are] from Haran.”
Chuin Jacob in amaho jah a “Sopite ho hoiya hung kon na hiu ham?” atile amahon adon but un “Keiho Haran gam'a hung kon ka hiuve,” ati.
5 And he says to them, “Have you known Laban, son of Nahor?” And they say, “We have known.”
Amapan adong kit in amaho chu “Nahor chapa Laban chu nahet khah hih uvem?” atile “Amahon jong kahe nauve,” atiuve.
6 And he says to them, “Does he have peace?” And they say, “Peace; and behold, his daughter Rachel is coming with the flock.”
Chuin Jacob in ajah uva “Ama chu dam dam a hinam? tia adohle amahon “henge adam jingnai ven tua hung kelngoi hontoh hung kilhon khu achanu Rachel hija khu,” atiuve.
7 And he says, “Behold, the day [is] still great, [it is] not time for the livestock to be gathered; water the flock, and go, delight yourselves.”
Jacob in ama ho jah a “Tuhin nisa sangtah hinalai ja gancha hoi khom phat bon hilou lai, kelngoi hon chu twi chipsah uvin lang gavah pha uvin,” ati.
8 And they say, “We are not able, until all the droves be gathered together, and they have rolled away the stone from the mouth of the well, and we have watered the flock.”
Ama hon a donbut un, “Gancha ho jouse ahung kikim tokah in twi kipethei ponte atiuve, hichun kelngoi chingho chun songpi chu twisam kot apat chun atangdoh un kelngoi hon jouse twija ka vah va ding ahi,” atiuve.
9 He is yet speaking with them, and Rachel has come with the flock which her father has, for she [is] shepherdess;
Amahon hitia akihou lim pet tah uchun Rachel chu apa kelngoi hon hotoh ahung ki jot luttai, Ajeh chu amanu jong kelngoi ching a pang ahiye.
10 and it comes to pass, when Jacob has seen Rachel, daughter of his mother’s brother Laban, and the flock of his mother’s brother Laban, that Jacob comes near and rolls the stone from off the mouth of the well, and waters the flock of his mother’s brother Laban.
Hichun Jacob in anu sopipa Laban chanu Rachel le anu sopipa Laban kelngoite amu phat in anai lut in twikhuh kamsin songpi chu alih doh in apupa kelngoi hon chu twi achip sah in ahi.
11 And Jacob kisses Rachel, and lifts up his voice, and weeps,
Hichun Jacob'in Rachel chu abeng chop in awging tah in akap'e.
12 and Jacob declares to Rachel that he [is] her father’s brother, and that he [is] Rebekah’s son, and she runs and declares [it] to her father.
Jacob in Rachel jah a apa sopinu Rebekah chapa ahi thusim aseipeh tan ahile Rachel chu achen apa aga hetsah tan ahi.
13 And it comes to pass, when Laban hears the report of his sister’s son Jacob, that he runs to meet him, and embraces him, and kisses him, and brings him into his house; and he recounts to Laban all these things,
Laban in Jacob asopinu chapa ahung lhun ahet chun akimu pin akoi jin achop jeng in chuin a in lama ahin puilut tai. Hichun Jacob in ima jouse thusimho chu aseipeh tai.
14 and Laban says to him, “You [are] surely my bone and my flesh”; and he dwells with him a month of days.
Chuin Laban in Jacob henga aseiye, “Nangma hi kagu ka chang chule ka phevou mong nahi,” ati. Hichun Jacob chu apu Laban kom'a lhakhat sung aum tai.
15 And Laban says to Jacob, “Is it because you [are] my brother that you have served me for nothing? Declare to me what your hire [is].”
Laban in Jacob henga aseiye, “Nangma hi ka insung mi nahi vang'in mohseh a tohman beiya na um ding chu adih thei poi, natoh man ipi hiding ham neisei peh tem in? tin adong tai.”
16 And Laban has two daughters, the name of the older [is] Leah, and the name of the younger Rachel,
Laban in chanu ni aneiyin, alenjo nu min chu Leah ahin, chule aneojo nu min chu Rachel ahi.
17 and the eyes of Leah [are] tender, and Rachel has been beautiful of form and beautiful of appearance.
Ahin Leah mit chu aleng thim in ama vang Rachel chu amelhoi jin, amaiso jong lungset aum lheh jenge.
18 And Jacob loves Rachel and says, “I serve you seven years for Rachel your younger daughter”:
Jacob'in Rachel chu hatah in adeichat jeh in hitin aseiye, “Keiman nang ding in kum sagi na nei tohsah in lang, na chanu aneojo nu Rachel hi keima ji din kipui tang kate,” ati.
19 and Laban says, “It is better for me to give her to you than to give her to another man; dwell with me”;
Laban in adonbut'in, “Hithei nante,” ati. “Ajeh chu keiman midang ho kapeh sanga nangma kapeh ding chu thilphajo ahibouve, Hijeh chun keima koma um jingtan,” ati.
20 and Jacob serves for Rachel seven years; and they are in his eyes as some days, because of his loving her.
Hichun Jacob in kum sagi sung in Rachel man toh kitoh ding in na atong tan, Hinlah Jacob in Rachel angailut behset jeh chun ni chomcha toh abahsah in ahi.
21 And Jacob says to Laban, “Give up my wife, for my days have been fulfilled, and I go in to her”;
Chujouvin Jacob in Laban jah a hitin aseiye, “Keiman ka kitepna ho jouse ka subulhit tai, kajinu tun neipe tan ka luppi nom tai,” tin ahung thum tai.
22 and Laban gathers all the men of the place, and makes a banquet.
Hichun Laban in jetle veija cheng ule nao jouse akou khom soh keiyin kichen na golvah chu aboltai.
23 And it comes to pass in the evening, that he takes his daughter Leah, and brings her to him, and he goes in to her;
Hinlah hiche jan ahung thim phat chun Laban in Leah chu Jacob koma aga that lut pehtan, Jacob in hichenu chu alup khom petai.
24 and Laban gives his maidservant Zilpah to her, to his daughter Leah, [for] a maidservant.
Laban in asohnu Zilpah jong chu Leah kithopi a pang ding in apeh tha tai.
25 And it comes to pass in the morning, that behold, it [is] Leah; and he says to Laban, “What [is] this you have done to me? Have I not served with you for Rachel? And why have you deceived me?”
Ahin jingkah matah in Jacob ahung kitho leh Leah joh anahin, Jacob in Laban jah a aseiyin, “Ipi iti a hiti a hi neibol hitam? kum sagi nangma noiya na kana toh chu Rachel manding a katoh hilou ham? “Ibol a nei jou lhep ham? tin aseiye.
26 And Laban says, “It is not done so in our place, to give the younger before the firstborn;
Laban in adonbut in “Kei ho chondana a unu umpet a hi anaonu jinei doh thei lou ahi.”
27 fulfill the period of seven [for] this one, and we also give to you this one, for the service which you serve with me yet seven other years.”
Hiche hapta khat sunghi ji nei dan hi subu lhit tadin, hiche teng chule Rachel jong kapeh ding na hi, ahin nangman kum sagi ma kana, natoh kit ding ahi ati peh e.
28 And Jacob does so, and fulfills the period of seven [for] this one, and he gives his daughter Rachel to him for a wife for him;
Chuin Jacob in Leah chu hapta khat lhing in akichen pin hiche jou chun Laban in Rachel jong ajinu ding in ape tai.
29 and Laban gives his maidservant Bilhah to his daughter Rachel for a maidservant for her.
Laban'in asohnu Bilhah jong chu achanu Rachel jenle a pang dingin apehtha tai.
30 And he also goes in to Rachel, and he also loves Rachel more than Leah; and he serves with him yet seven other years.
Hichun Jacob'in Rachel jong alup khom pitan, aman Rachel chu Leah sang in hatah in adei jon, hichun Jacob in kum sagi ma Laban na atong kit'in ahi.
31 And YHWH sees that Leah [is] the hated one, and He opens her womb, and Rachel [is] barren;
Ahin Pathen in Leah kihot bol chu amudoh tan, hijeh chun anaobu ahondoh peh in, amavang Rachel chu aching in cha neilou in aum tai.
32 and Leah conceives, and bears a son, and calls his name Reuben, for she said, “Because YHWH has looked on my affliction; because now does my husband love me.”
Leah vang chu achung agih tan; chapa khat ahing in amin Reuben asah tai, Ijeh in em itile, “Pathen in ka gimna ho eihet pehtai, hiche jeh a hi ka jipan eilungset ding ahi tai,” ati.
33 And she conceives again, and bears a son, and says, “Because YHWH has heard that I [am] the hated one, He also gives to me even this [one]”; and she calls his name Simeon.
Chuin aman nao avop kit in chapa khat ahing kit tai, ajeh chu “Keima eikihot bolhi Pakaiyin ajah doh phat'a chapa hiche jong hi eipeh kit ahiye,” Hijeh achu amin Simeon asah tai.
34 And she conceives again and bears a son, and says, “Now [is] the time, my husband is joined to me, because I have born to him three sons,” therefore has [one] called his name Levi.
Hichun Leah achung gih in, nao avop kittan ama nun hitin aseiye, “Tua pat'a hi ka jipa toh thakhat tipum khat kahi lhon ding ahi tai, ajeh chu keiman cha pasal thum ka hin pehtai hichun naosen chu amin chu Levi asah tai.”
35 And she conceives again and bears a son, and this time says, “I praise YHWH”; therefore has she called his name Judah; and she ceases from bearing.
Chujouvin Leah in nao avop kit in chapa khat ahing in, “Tuchunga vang Pakai ka thangvah na ding ahi,” atin hijeh chun amin Judah asah tai, chujou a pat in vang cha abang tan ahi.
