Genesis 1
1 In beginning he created God the heavens and the earth.
A cuekca vaengah Pathen loh vaan neh diklai a suen.
2 And the earth was formlessness and emptiness and darkness [was] over [the] surface of [the] deep and [the] spirit of God [was] hovering over [the] surface of the waters.
Te vaengah diklai te a hinghong la om tih hoeng. Tuidung hman khaw a hmuep loh a dah. Te vaengah Pathen Mueihla tah tui hman ah lam.
3 And he said God let it be light and there was light.
Tedae Pathen loh, “Vangnah om saeh,” a ti dongah vangnah om.
4 And he saw God the light that [it was] good and he separated God between the light and between the darkness.
Te vaengah Pathen loh vangnah te then tila a hmuh. Te dongah Pathen loh vangnah neh a hmuep te a laklo ah a phih.
5 And he called God - the light day and the darkness he called night and there was evening and there was morning day one.
Te phoeiah Pathen loh vangnah te khothaih la a khue tih a hmuep te khoyin la a khue. Te vaengah hlaem neh mincang om tih khohnin lamhmacuek la om.
6 And he said God let it be a firmament in [the] middle of the waters and let it be separating between waters to waters.
Te phoeiah Pathen loh, “Tui laklo ah bangyai om saeh lamtah tui neh tui laklo ah phih la om saeh,” a ti.
7 And he made God the firmament and he separated between the waters which [were] from under to the firmament and between the waters which [were] from the firmament and it was so.
Te dongah Pathen loh bangyai te a saii tih, bangyai hmui lamkah tui neh bangyai hman kah tui te a laklo ah aka phih la om tangloeng.
8 And he called God the firmament heaven and there was evening and there was morning a day second.
Pathen loh bangyai te vaan la a khue. Te vaengah hlaem neh mincang om tih khohnin pabae la om.
9 And he said God let them gather the waters from under the heavens to a place one and let it appear the dry ground and it was so.
Te phoeiah Pathen loh, “Vaan hmui kah tui rhoek te hmuen pakhat la tingtun uh saeh lamtah laiphuei tueng saeh,” a ti. Te dongah om tangloeng.
10 And he called God - the dry ground earth and [the] collection of the waters he called seas and he saw God that [it was] good.
Pathen loh laiphuei te lan la a khue tih, tui rhoek a tungnah te tuitunli la a khue. Te dongah Pathen loh then tila a hmuh.
11 And he said God let it sprout the earth vegetation plant[s] [which] bears seed seed tree[s] of fruit producing fruit to kind its which seed its [is] in it on the earth and it was so.
Te phoeiah Pathen loh, “Diklai loh toian, baelhing, a muu aka om ham a thaih te amah hui la a thaih aka saii thing te poe sak saeh, diklai ah a tii te om saeh,” a ti. Te dongah om tangloeng coeng.
12 And brought forth the earth vegetation plant[s] [which] bears seed seed to kind its and tree[s] (producing *LAH(b)*) fruit which seed its [was] in it to kind its and he saw God that [it was] good.
Te dongah amah hui la a tii a muu aka om toian, baelhing khaw, amah hui vanbangla amah ah a muu a thaih aka saii thing khaw diklai loh a poe sak. Te dongah Pathen loh then tila a hmuh.
13 And there was evening and there was morning a day third.
Te vaengah hlaem neh mincang om tih a thum khohnin la om.
14 And he said God let it be luminaries in [the] firmament of the heavens to separate between the day and between the night and they will become signs and appointed times and days and years.
Te phoeiah Pathen loh, “Khothaih neh khoyin te a laklo ah phih ham neh khoning ham khaw, khohnin ham khaw, kum tue ham khaw miknoek la om sak ham vaan bangyai ah vangnah om saeh.
15 And they will become luminaries in [the] firmament of the heavens to give light on the earth and it was so.
Vaan bangyai ah khaw, diklai hman aka tue ham khaw, vangnah om saeh,” a ti. Te dongah om tangloeng coeng.
16 And he made God [the] two the luminaries great the luminary great for [the] dominion of the day and the luminary small for [the] dominion of the night and the stars.
Te phoeiah Pathen loh vangnah a len panit te, khothaih kah khohung la vangnah a len pakhat neh khoyin kah khohung la vangnah a yit neh aisi rhoek te khaw a saii.
17 And he set them God in [the] firmament of the heavens to give light on the earth.
Te phoeiah Pathen loh khothaih neh khoyin aka taemrhai khaw, vangnah neh a hmuep te aka phih ham khaw,
18 And to rule over the day and over the night and to separate between the light and between the darkness and he saw God that [it was] good.
Diklai hman aka tue ham khaw, vaan bangyai ah amih te a khueh vaengah Pathen loh then tila a hmuh.
19 And there was evening and there was morning a day fourth.
Te vaengah hlaem neh mincang om tih a li khohnin la om.
20 And he said God let them swarm the waters swarming thing[s] creature[s] living and bird[s] let it fly above the earth on [the] surface of [the] firmament of the heavens.
Te phoeiah Pathen loh, “Rhulcai mulhing hinglu te tui loh luem puei saeh lamtah diklai hman boeih vaan bangyai hmai ah vaa ding saeh,” a ti.
21 And he created God the sea monsters great and every creature living - which creeps which they swarmed the waters to kind their and every bird of wing to kind its and he saw God that [it was] good.
Te dongah Pathen loh, tuihnam a len rhoek neh aka colh aka tat mulhing, hinglu boeih khaw, a suen. Te te amah hui la tui loh a luem sak tih phae aka khueh vaa cungkuem khaw amah hui la om. Te dongah Pathen loh then tila a hmuh.
22 And he blessed them God saying be fruitful and multiply and fill the waters in the seas and the bird[s] let it multiply on the earth.
Amih khaw Pathen loh yoethen a paek tih, “Pungtai uh lamtah ping uh. Tuitunli kah tui dongah khaw baetawt uh. Vaa long khaw diklai ah pungtai saeh,” a ti.
23 And there was evening and there was morning a day fifth.
Te vaengah hlaem neh mincang aka om te a nga khohnin la om.
24 And he said God let it produce the earth creature[s] living to kind its livestock and creeping thing[s] and animal[s] of [the] earth to kind its and it was so.
Te phoeiah Pathen loh, “Diklai loh mulhing hinglu te amah hui la, rhamsa khaw, rhulcai khaw, diklai mulhing khaw amah hui la thoeng sak saeh,” a ti. Te dongah thoeng tangloeng.
25 And he made God [the] animal[s] of the earth to kind its and the livestock to kind its and every creeping thing of the ground to kind its and he saw God that [it was] good.
Te dongah Pathen loh diklai mulhing te amah hui la, rhamsa te khaw amah hui la, diklai rhulcai boeih khaw amah hui la a saii. Te te Pathen loh a then la a hmuh.
26 And he said God let us make humankind in image our according to likeness our and they may rule over [the] fish of the sea and over [the] bird[s] of the heavens and over the livestock and over all the earth and over every creeping thing which creeps on the earth.
Te phoeiah Pathen loh, “Mamih mueiloh la mamih muei neh hlang saii uh sih lamtah tuitunli kah nga soah khaw, vaan kah vaa soah khaw, rhamsa soah khaw, diklai kah a cungkuem soah khaw, diklai ah aka colh rhulcai cungkuem soah khaw, taemrhai uh saeh,” a ti.
27 And he created God - humankind in own image his in [the] image of God he created it male and female he created them.
Te dongah Pathen loh, amah muei la hlang a suen. Pathen kah muei la tongpa khaw a suen tih huta khaw a suen.
28 And he blessed them God and he said to them God be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth and subdue it and rule over [the] fish of the sea and over [the] bird[s] of the heavens and over every animal which creeps on the earth.
Te phoeiah Pathen loh amih rhoi te yoethen a paek tih Pathen loh amih rhoi taengah, “Pungtai uh lamtah ping uh. Diklai khaw khulae uh lamtah tuitunli kah nga khaw, vaan kah vaa khaw, diklai kah aka yuel mulhing boeih khaw, khoem rhoi,” a ti nah.
29 And he said God here! I give to you every plant - [which] bears seed seed which [is] on [the] surface of all the earth and every tree which in it [is the] fruit of a tree [which] bears seed seed to you will be[long] to food.
Te phoeiah Pathen loh, “Diklai hman boeih kah a tii aka om baelhing boeih neh a thaih ah a muu aka om thing neh, thing boeih khaw nangmih ham ka khueh coeng ne, nangmih ham cakok la om ni,” a ti nah.
30 And to every animal of the earth and to every bird of the heavens and to every - creeping [thing] on the earth which [is] in it life living all greenery of plant[s] to food and it was so.
Te phoeiah, “Diklai kah mulhing boeih khaw, vaan kah vaa boeih khaw, diklai ah aka tat tih amah dongah hingnah hinglu aka khueh boeih khaw, baelhing hingsuep boeih te cakok la om saeh,” a ti nah. Te dongah om tangloeng coeng.
31 And he saw God all that he had made and there! [it was] good very and there was evening and there was morning [the] day sixth.
Pathen loh a saii boeih te a sawt vaengah bahoeng then coeng ne. Te vaengah hlaem neh mincang om tih a rhuk hnin la om.
