Genesis 1
1 In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.
Apuengcue vah, Cathut ni kalvan hoi talai a sak.
2 Now, the earth, had become waste and wild, and darkness, was on the face of the roaring deep, —but, the Spirit of God, was brooding on the face of the waters,
Talai teh meilam tawn hoeh. Ahrawng lah doeh ao. Hmonae ni kadung poung e hmuen a ramuk. Cathut e Muitha teh tui van a kâroe.
3 And God said—Light, be, And light was.
Cathut ni angnae awm seh ati teh angnae teh ao.
4 And God saw the light, that it was, good, and God divided the light, from the, darkness;
Angnae teh Cathut ni a khet navah ahawi ati teh, Cathut ni angnae teh hmonae dawk hoi a kapek.
5 and God called the light, day, but the darkness, called he, night. So it was evening—and it was morning, one day.
Cathut ni angnae hah khodai telah a phung, hmonae hah karum telah a phung. Hottelah, tangmin hoi amom teh apasuek hnin lah ao.
6 And God said, Let there be an expanse in the midst of the waters, and let it be a means of dividing, between waters and waters,
Hahoi Cathut ni, tui lungui lathueng awmseh, tui hoi tui kâkapek seh telah ati.
7 And God made the expanse, and it divided between the waters that were under the expanse and the waters that were above the expanse. And it was so.
Hottelah Cathut ni lathueng a sak teh, lathueng lah kaawm e tui hoi lathueng rahim lah kaawm e tui hah a kapek teh hottelah ao awh.
8 And God called the expanse, heavens. So it was evening—and it was morning, a, second day.
Cathut ni lathueng teh kalvan telah a phung. Hottelah tangmin hoi amom teh apâhni hnin lah ao.
9 And God said—Let the waters under the heavens be gathered together, into one place, and let the dry—ground appear. And it was so.
Hahoi Cathut ni kalvan rahim kaawm e tui hmuen buet touh koe awm seh. Kaphui e talai kamnuek seh ati e patetlah ao.
10 And God called, the dry-ground, land, but the gathering together of the waters, called he seas. And God saw that it was good.
Cathut ni kaphui e talai hah talai telah ati teh, tuikamuemnae teh tuipui telah a phung. Cathut ni a khet navah ahawi telah ati.
11 And God said—Let the land put-forth vegetation—herb yielding seed, fruit-tree, bearing fruit after its kind, whose seed is within it on the land. And it was so,
Hahoi Cathut ni hettelah ati, talai ni pho, cati ka tâcawt sak e cakung, a paw ka paw e thingkung, amamouh a coung e patetlah atimu katâcawtkhai e naw hah paw naseh ati e patetlah ao awh.
12 And the land brought-forth vegetation—herb yielding seed after its kind, and tree bearing fruit, whose seed is within it, after its kind, And God saw that it was good.
Talai ni pho, cati ka tâcawt sak e cakung, ati ka tawn ni teh a paw ka paw e thingkungnaw a pâw sak. Hotnaw hah Cathut ni a khet navah ahawi telah ati.
13 So it was evening—and it was morning, a third day.
Hottelah tangmin hoi amom teh apâthum hnin lah ao.
14 And God said—Let there be luminaries in the expanse of the heavens, to divide between the day and the night, —and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days and years;
Hahoi Cathut ni karum dawk hoi khodai kapek nahanelah, kalvan e lathueng dawk angnae awm seh, mitnoutnae tue, hnin hoi kumnaw awmseh.
15 yea let them be for luminaries in the expanse of the heavens, to give light on the earth. And it was so.
Kalvan e lathueng dawk, talai angnae ka poe hanelah, angnae awmseh telah ati e patetlah ao.
16 And God made the two great luminaries, —the greater luminary to rule the day, and the lesser luminary to rule the night, also the stars.
Hahoi Cathut ni angnae kalen kahni touh a sak teh, khodai ka uk hanelah kalen e buet touh, karum ka uk hanelah kathoenge buet touh hoi âsinaw a sak.
17 And God set them in the expanse of the heavens, —to give light on the earth;
Cathut ni talai dawk ang sak hanelah thoseh, khodai hoi karum ka uk hanelah thoseh, hmonae dawk hoi angnae kapek hanelah thoseh, kalvan e lathueng dawk a hruek.
18 and to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness. And God saw that it was good.
Hote hah Cathut ni a khet navah, ahawi telah ati.
19 So it was evening—and it was morning, a fourth day.
Hottelah tangmin hoi amom teh apali hnin lah ao.
20 And God said—Let the waters swarm with an abundance of living soul, and, birds, shall fly over the earth, over the face of the expanse of the heavens.
Hahoi, Cathut ni kahring ni teh kâroe e saring, tui ni pungdaw sak naseh. Tavanaw hai kalvan e lathueng dawk kamleng naseh telah ati.
21 And God created the great sea-monsters, —and every living soul that moveth—[with] which the waters swarmed after their kind and every winged bird—after its kind. And God saw that it was good.
Hahoi, Cathut ni tuipui dawk e saring kalenpoungnaw, kahring ni teh kâroe e saringnaw tui ni amamouh coungnae patetlah lengkaleng a pungdaw sak teh, rathei ka tawn e tavanaw hai amamouh coungnae patetlah lengkaleng a sak. Hote hah Cathut ni a khet navah ahawi telah ati.
22 And God blessed them, saying, —Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let, the birds, multiply in the land.
Cathut ni hote saringnaw hah yawhawi a poe teh, moikapap pungdaw awh nateh, tuipui tuinaw dawk kawi sak awh. Tavanaw hai talai dawk pungdaw awh telah ati.
23 So it was evening—and it was morning, a fifth day.
Hottelah tangmin hoi amom teh apanga hnin lah ao.
24 And God said—Let the land, bring forth, living soul, after its kind, tame-beast and creeping thing and wild-beast, of the land, after its kind. And it was so.
Hahoi Cathut ni saring hoi moithangnaw, vonpui hoi kâva e moithangnaw talî ni pungdaw sak seh telah ati e patetlah ao.
25 And God made the wild-beast of the land after its kind, and the tame-beast after its kind, and every creeping thing of the ground, after its kind. And God saw that it was good.
Hottelah Cathut ni moithangnaw, saringnaw, vonpui hoi kâva e moithang pueng teh a sak. Hote hah Cathut ni a khet navah ahawi telah ati.
26 And God said—Let us make man in our image after our likeness—and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the bird of the heavens and over the tame-beast—and over all the land, and over every creeping thing, that creepeth on the land.
Hahoi Cathut ni, mamae mei hoi kâvan lah, meikalat lah tami sak awh sei. Ahni ni tuipui dawk e tanganaw, kalvan e tavanaw, talai dawk e saring pueng hoi, vonpui hoi kâva e saring pueng e lathueng kâ tawn seh telah ati.
27 And God created the man in his own image, In the image of God, created he him, —Male and female, created he, them.
Hottelah Cathut ni amae mei hoi kâvan lah, amae meikalat lah tongpa hoi napui hah a sak.
28 And God blessed them, and God said to them Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth and subdue it, —and have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the bird of the heavens, and over every living thing that moveth on the land.
Hahoi ahnimouh roi hah Cathut ni yawhawinae a poe teh, Cathut ni ahnimouh roi koe, canaw moikapap khe nateh pungdaw awh. Talai dawk kawi awh nateh, tâ awh loe. Tuipui dawk e tanganaw, kalvan e tavanaw, talai dawk vonpui hoi kâva e moithang pueng koe kâ tawn awh telah ati.
29 And God said—Lo! I have given to you—every herb yielding seed which is on the face of all the land, and every tree wherein is the fruit of a tree yielding seed, —to you, shall it be, for food;
Hahoi Cathut ni khenhaw! talai dawk cati ka tâcawt sak e cakung aphunphun, a paw dawk a mu kaawm e thingkung pueng, na ca awh hanelah kai ni na poe.
30 and to every living thing of the land—and to every bird of the heavens, and to every thing that moveth on the land, wherein is a living soul, every green herb for food. And it was so.
Hahoi, talai e moithang, kalvan e tava, hoi kahring niteh, talai dawk vonpui hoi kâva e moithang pueng ni a ca hanelah, pho kahring aphunphun ka poe telah ati e patetlah ao.
31 And God saw every thing which he had made, and lo! it was very good. So it was evening—and it was morning, the sixth day.
Hahoi, Cathut ni a sak e pueng a khet navah, ahawipoung telah ati. Hottelah tangmin hoi amom teh ataruk hnin lah ao.
