Exodus 14
1 Then Yahweh said to Moses/me,
Pakaiyin Mose heng'a thupeh hicheng hi anei jin:
2 “Tell the Israeli people to turn around and go back and set up their tents in front of Pi-Hahiroth [town]. That town is between Migdol and the sea, across from Baal-Zephon [town]. Set up your tents there, close to the sea.
“Israel mite heng'a seiyin nung lam'a a kihei uva Pi-hahiroth le Migdol kikah san-dung chule Baalzephon gal lamma ngahmun asem naiduvin aheng uvah seipeh'un,” ati.
3 When the king [knows you have done that], he will think, ‘The Israeli people are confused. They are wandering around, and the desert blocks their path.’
Chutileh Pharaoh in hitia hi angaito ding, “Israel mite alungdong tauvin, suhna ding helouvin gamthip noija akitol le tauve, ati ding ahi.”
4 But I will make the king stubborn [again], and he will [take his army and] pursue you. Then my people will praise/thank me for winning a victory over the king and his army. And the Egyptians will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].” So [Moses/I told my people that, and] they did what he/I told them to do.
“Hitia chu keima avel'a Pharaoh lungthim ka suhtah ding, aman nangho nung ahin delding ahi. Ajeh chu keiman ka gontupsa ahitai, Pharaoh le agalsat mite chung'a ka loupina kakilah sah ding ahi. Chuteng Egypt mite'n keima Pakai kahi ahin hetdoh diu ahitai! Aheng uva kisei peh bang'in Israel mite'n hiche munna chun ngahmun akisem tauvin ahi.
5 When someone told the king that the Israeli people had left [during the night], he and his officials changed their minds and said, “(What have we done?/What we have done was stupid!) [RHQ] The Israeli people will no longer be our slaves!”
“Pharaoh lengpa le asohte ho heng'a Israel mite ajam tauve tithu alhun phat in, Pharaoh leh asohte lungthim akikhel kit tan, “Ipi khat ibol uva Israel mite asoh chan nauva kon'na jam gam'u hitam?” tin asei uve.
6 So the king got his chariot and his army ready.
Pharaoh in jong agalsat miho le sakol kangtalai hochu agon tupsah loijin ahi.
7 Then he selected 600 of the best chariots, and in each chariot he placed a driver, a soldier, and a commander, and they left. Other chariots, with a driver and a soldier in each of them, also went along.
“Pharaoh vin sakol-kangtalai hatcheh jagup le Egypt gamsung'a sakol kangtalai dangho jouse abonchan vaihom mitam pichu atou tauvin ahi.”
8 Because Yahweh made the king of Egypt so stubborn that he and his army went to pursue the Israelis, who were leaving triumphantly,
“Pakaiyin Pharaoh kiti Egypt lengpa lungthim asutah nalai jin ahile, aman jong Egypt gamsung dalha'a jam Israel mite nungchu adel tan ahi.”
9 the Egyptian army, with all the king’s horses and chariots and horsemen, pursued the Israelis. They caught up with them as they were camped near the sea, close to Pi-Hahiroth, in front of Baal-Zephon [town].
“Egypt mite'n jong Israelte chu Pharaoh'in galsat miho thaneina lhingset apen anung adel tauvin a sakol jouseo leh sakol-kangtalai jouse, sakol touthem jouse le agalsat mijouse abonchauvin adimlha tauvin ahi.”
10 When the king’s army got near, the Israeli people were surprised to see that the Egyptians were marching toward them. They were terrified; so they cried out to Yahweh [to help them].
Pharaoh jong Israel mite umnalam anailut jep phat'in amahon Pharaoh lam chu avetou uvin, hichun amahon anung lam uva Egypt mite ahung kitol chu amu tauve. Abonchauvin Pakai heng'a atao uvin,
11 Then they said to Moses/me, “Is it because there were no places in Egypt [where we could] be buried that you have brought us here to die in this desert [RHQ]? Look what you have done to us by bringing us out of Egypt [RHQ]!
Mose heng'a asei un, “Ipi ding'a gamthip noija hi thigam ding'a neihin puidoh'u hitam? Hitia ka thi gam sang uva Egypt mite khut noija soh'a ka um'mu phajo lou ham? Ka chung uva ipi nabol jing hitam? Ipi dinga Egypt gamsung'a kona nei puidoh'u ham?
12 That is what we told you when we were in Egypt! We said, ‘Leave us alone, and let us work for the Egyptians [RHQ]!’ It would have been better for us to be slaves for the Egyptians than to die here in the desert!”
Egypt gamsung kaum lai uva chu, hi tabanghi soh tei ding ahi tia ka seiju hilou ham? Tunjong na henga ka seiju ahi, “Nei dalha jeng tauvin! Egypt mite khut noija soh in umkit tau vinge. Hiche laimunna ka thigam sang uvin Egypt mite khut noija soh'a ka um'u apha joi!” tin asei tauve.
13 Moses/I replied to the people, “Do not be afraid! Be brave, and see how Yahweh will rescue you! He will save you today, and the result will be that the Egyptians that you are looking at today—you will never see them again!
Ahinlah Mose'n mipi heng'a asei jin, “Kicha hihhel un, dingdet jing un veuvin, tunia hi Pakaiyin na huhdoh diu ahiye. Chule tunia kipat avella Egypt mite namukit tah lou diu ahi,” ati.
14 Yahweh will fight for you! Just keep quiet. There is nothing else that you will have to do.”
“Pakai amatah'in nangho galsat'a pang ding ahi.”
15 Yahweh said to Moses/me, “Tell the people to stop crying out for me [to help them], and tell them to go forward. Lift up your stick and stretch it out toward the sea. The water will divide, so that all you Israeli people can go in the middle of the sea, walking on dry ground.
Chuin Pakaiyin Mose heng'a asei jin, “Ipi ding'a keima heng'a tao na hiuvem? Mipiho ma lamma akitol na diuvin seijin!
“Na-tenggol jan doh tem in twikhanglen-dung vum chu jep tan. Twipi chu sukhen'in chutileh Israel mite twikhanglen lai lung tolgo lah achu ki jot ding'u ahi.”
17 I will make the Egyptians stubborn, so that they will try to follow you. And then as a result of [what I will do to the] king and his army and his chariots and his horsemen, [my people] will praise/thank me.
“Chule keiman Egypt mite lungthim kasuh tah ding, amahon Israel mite thagam na ding angai todiu ahi, chuteng asakol kangtalai jouseo, asakol tounau nangho that gam ding'a hungkon ahiuvin, abonchauva keiman kathaneina aheng uva ka kilah sah ding ahi.”
18 And when I have won a glorious [victory] over the king and his chariots and his horsemen, the [other] Egyptians will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].”
“Egypt mite ma-sang'a kaloupina kakimusah ding ahijoi, chuteng keima Pakai kahi ahin hetdoh diu ahi!” ati.
19 Then the angel of God, who had been in front of the Israeli people, moved and went behind them. The tall bright cloud that had been in front of them also moved behind them,
Chuin Pakai vantil'in Israel mite ahin lhonpi'n. Mipi masang lam'a meilom chu nunglam joh'a ahung tan ahi.
20 until it was between the Egyptian army and the Israeli people. The cloud caused the Egyptian army to be in the dark but it gave light for the Israelis. As a result, neither group could come near the other group during the whole night.
Chuin meilom chu Israel mite le Egypt mite kah'a ahung umtai. Mu-athim lha jeng tan, meilom jong meikong a kisoh'in kho ahung thim tan ahile, jan khovah keijin Israel mite chu Egypt miten ahin del pha tapo uvin ahi.
21 [That evening], Moses/I stretched out his/my hand toward the sea. Then Yahweh sent a strong wind from the east. It blew all night and pushed the water apart, and it caused the ground between the water to dry up.
Chuin Mose'n a tenggol chu twikhanglen san-dung vumma ajah doh jing'a ahile, chuin Pakaiyin twikhanglen dung chu solamma kon hui ahung nung in ahinsem hoh tan ahi. Jan khovah keijin huijin twikhanglen chu asem in, twikhanglen jong aki khen'in tol lham golai ahung umdohtan ahi.
22 Then we Israeli people went on the dry land in the middle of the sea. The water was like a wall on each side of us, on the right side and on the left side.
Chuphat'in Israel mite abonchauvin tolgo laiya chun akitol'un alang alang'abang-bang'in twi chu kiting tan ahi!
23 Then the Egyptian army pursued them, and went after them into the middle of the sea, with their horses and their chariots and the chariot-drivers.
Chuin Egypt mite Pharaoh galsat sakol jouse, sakol kangtalai jouse chule sakol touthem jouse jaona'n Twikhanglen lailung'a kitol Israel mite chu adel tauvin ahi.
24 Just before dawn, Yahweh looked down from the fiery cloud, and then he caused the Egyptian army to panic.
“Jingpi ahi phat in Pakaiyin Egypt mite chu meikong leh meilom mangchan ahin vesuh tauvin ahile, chuin Egypt galsat miho chu abonchauvin suh na ding beijin a nohgam tauvin ahi.
25 He caused the wheels of the chariots to get stuck [in the mud], so that they could hardly move. So the Egyptians said, “Yahweh is fighting for the Israelis and against us; let’s get out of here!”
Pakaiyin a kangtalai jouse'u abonchan a tuhtang gam tan ahile, kangtalai hochu abonchan a kitang den gam tai. Egypt miten jong aseita'u vin! “Israel mite angsung'a kon'in jamdoh loiju hite,” ajeh chu “Pakaiyin Israel mite apan pin Egypt mite chung'a gal asat tai,” atiuve.
26 Then Yahweh said to Moses/me, “Stretch out your arm toward the sea again. Then the water will come back on the Egyptians and on their chariots and their horsemen.”
Israel mite agalkai phat uvin, Pakaiyin Mose heng'a aseijin, “Egypt mite twijin ale lonkhum na ding'in na tenggol jahdoh inlang twipilen chungvum hi jep tem in, ati.”
27 So Moses/I stretched out his/my arm, and as the sun was rising, the water returned to its normal level. The Egyptians tried to escape, but Yahweh hurled them back into the sea.
Nisa ahung sodoh toh ki lhon'in, Pakaiyin a thupeh bang in Mose'n Twipilen chung vumma akhut ajah tan ahile, Twipilen jong angai ja bang bang in ahung um doh kit tai.
28 The water returned and covered the chariots and the horsemen and the whole Egyptian army that had tried to follow us Israelis into the sea. Every one of the Egyptians drowned.
Chuin Twi akitol mat kit tan, Israel mite nung hindel a Egypt galsat miho le sakol touthem jouse, kangtalai jouse abonchauvin Twi jin achup gam hel taovin khat jeng cha jong asohcha tapouvin ahi.
29 But we Israeli people had already crossed through the sea by walking on dry ground, with the water being [like two] walls, one on the right side and one on the left side.
Ahinlah Israel mite chu Twipilen lailung'a tolgo achun akitol jing uvin, twipi jing jong ajet aveija akisong den jeng in ahi.
30 That is the way Yahweh saved the Israeli people from the Egyptian army on that day. The Israeli people saw the Egyptians lying dead, [with their bodies washed up] on the shore.
Hiche nikho'a hi Pakaiyin Israel mite chu Egypt mite khut akon'in ahu doh'in Israel mite'n amit tah uvin twi-khanglen galla Egypt mite thilong kijam hochu amutaovin ahi.
31 The Israelis saw what Yahweh did to the Egyptians by his great power [MTY], and they were in awe of Yahweh. They trusted in Yahweh and they also trusted Moses/me.
Egypt miten Isreal mite douna anei uva Pakai thahat le natoh ki dang amuchen ta uvin ahile, Israel mite'n Pakai chu aging tauve. Pakai le alhachapa Mose jong aging uvin, tahsan ki phudetna anei tauvin ahi.
