< Genesis 20 >
1 Abraham traveled from there toward the land of the Negev, and lived between Kadesh and Shur. He lived as a foreigner in Gerar.
Hiche akon chun Abraham chu Negev gam langa akichon in Kadesh le Shur kikah a phat chomkhat ana cheng in, chuin Gerar lang gei in aga cheng in ahi.
2 Abraham said about Sarah his wife, "She is my sister." Abimelech king of Gerar sent, and took Sarah.
Abraham'in a inneipi Sarah chu “Ka sopinu ahi,” tin ana phong don in ahile Gerar lengpa Abimelech chun mi asol'in Sarah chu aga pui sah tai.
3 But God came to Abimelech in a dream of the night, and said to him, "Look, you are a dead man, because of the woman whom you have taken. For she is a man's wife."
Hinlah hiche jan chun Pathen in Abimelech amang in aki musah in hitin aseipeh'e, “Nangma hi athisa nahi ahi tai, ajeh chu numei na kipui hi aji nei numei ahi bouve!”
4 Now Abimelech had not come near her. He said, "Lord, will you kill even a righteous nation?
Ahin Abimelech chun amanu (Sarah), chu akitimatpi loulai ahi, hijeh chun Abimelech in “Pakai nangin hiche imacha hechenlou nam hi na suhmang mong ding hitam?
5 Did not he tell me, 'She is my sister?' She, even she herself, said, 'He is my brother.' In the integrity of my heart and the innocence of my hands have I done this."
Hitia chu Abraham tah in jong ka sopinu ahi tia eina houlimpi hilou ham? Chule amanun jong ka sopipa ahi atia,” hijeh achu keiman ka lungthim a jong themmo na beihel a chule ka khut teni jong atheng ahi bouve ati.
6 God said to him in the dream, "Yes, I know that in the integrity of your heart you have done this, and I also withheld you from sinning against me. Therefore I did not allow you to touch her.
Hijeh chun Pathen in amang in adonbut in, “Ahinai, keiman nangma hetthem louna ho chu ka henai. hiche ho jeh achu nangma keima douna a chonset a konna kasuh khen a chule hiche ho jeh a chu numeinu to kaki timat sah lou ahi.
7 Now therefore, restore the man's wife. For he is a prophet, and he will pray for you, and you will live. If you do not restore her, know for sure that you will die, you, and all who are yours."
Tun numeinu chu a inneipu komma soltan, amapa a inneipun taona naman peh ding ahi, ajeh chu ama themgao ahi, chuteng nangma nadam kit ding ahi tai. Ahin nahet ding khat chu a inneipi nanung peh doh louleh nangma chule na mite nathi gam diu ahi.
8 Abimelech rose early in the morning, and called all his servants, and told all these things in their ear. The men were very scared.
Hijeh chun Abimelech jong jingkah matah in a kithu doh in chuin asoh ho jouse gang tah in akou khom tan, chuin Abimelech in thusoh jouse chu asohte ho lah achun aseiyin tijat na adim tauve.
9 Then Abimelech called Abraham, and said to him, "What have you done to us? How have I sinned against you, that you have brought on me and on my kingdom a great sin? You have done deeds to me that ought not to be done."
Hichun Abimelech in Abraham chu akou vin ajah'a “Ipibol a hiti pia hi nei hung bol'u hitam? Itobang a nang douna a kana chonset hitam, hitia keile ka leng gam chunga chonset nasatah hi nahin pohlut ham? bol louhel ding thil nangman neibol khum ahi tai,” ati.
10 Abimelech said to Abraham, "What were you thinking, to do this thing?"
Chuin Abimelech in Abraham komma aseiye, “Nang in ipi nabol na ham?”
11 Abraham said, "Because I thought, 'Surely the fear of God is not in this place, so they will kill me because of my wife.'
Abraham'in adonbut in, “Hiche munhi Pathen ginglou mihem tamna mun ahi tin kagel in, ka loinu chu ka sopinu ahi kiti leh ama nu jeh a chu eitha lou diu ham kati ahi.”
12 Besides, she is indeed my sister, the daughter of my father, but not the daughter of my mother; and she became my wife.
Adihtah asei dinga ka sopinu jong ahi nai, kapa eihing lhonpa khat ahin kanu lhon vang achom chom ahi. keiman kaji din kaki pui tai.
13 It happened, when God caused me to wander from my father's house, that I said to her, 'This is your kindness which you shall show to me. Everywhere that we go, say of me, "He is my brother."'"
Pathen in eina kou doh chun kapa insung kanada lhah chun mun khat a patna mun chom a kana vale lhon lai chun kana seiye, thil ngaichat kaneiye katin, hoilang hi jongle iche le naho gamsunga na sopipa tin miho lah a neiphon doh ding ahi tin kana seipeh e.”
14 Abimelech took sheep and cattle, male servants and female servants, and gave them to Abraham, and restored Sarah, his wife, to him.
Hichun Abimelech in akelcha ho le kelngoi hon ho chule abong hon chule numei pasal asoh ho chu Abraham apetai. Abimelech in a inneipi Sarah jong chu anungsol peh kit tai.
15 Abimelech said, "Look, my land is before you. Dwell where it pleases you."
Hichun Abimelech in adonbut in, “Dah'in lang vetem in kagam sung nang in nadei pen na mun a na chen thei ahiye.”
16 To Sarah he said, "Look, I have given your brother a thousand pieces of silver. Look, it is to cover the offense against you before all who are with you. In front of all you are vindicated."
Abimelech in Sarah jah'a aseiye, “Ven keiman na sopipa dangka sang khat kapen, hiche sum hi na koma um chengse mitmu a asuh khel kihet them to na dinga kapeh ahi, chule japi angsunga nangma boina nanei tapoi,” ati.
17 Abraham prayed to God, and God healed Abimelech, and his wife, and his female servants, and they bore children.
Hichun Abraham'in Pathen kom a taona amang in Pathen in Abimelech asu dam tan, chule a inneipi le asoh numei ho jouse naobu jouse jong cha aneithei na diuvin aki hong gam tai.
18 For God had made every woman infertile in the household of Abimelech, because of Sarah, Abraham's wife.
Ajeh chu Abraham jinu Sarah jeh a Pakaiyin Abimelech insunga numei naobu jouse ana kha tan peh ahiye.
