Exodus 15
1 Then Moses/I sang this song, and the Israeli people sang with him: “I will sing to Yahweh, because he has triumphed gloriously; He has thrown the horses and their riders into the sea!
Moses neh Israel ca rhoek loh BOEIPA taengah he laa he a sak uh. Te vaengah,” A phul la aka phul marhang neh a soah aka ngol khaw tuipuei khuila a phok coeng dongah BOEIPA te ka hlai eh.
2 Yahweh is the one who makes me strong, and he is the one I sing about. He is the one who has saved me. He is (my God/God, the one I worship), and I will praise him. He is the one my father worshiped, and I will tell [others] how great he is.
Ka Pathen he kai ham ka sarhi neh BOEIPA laa neh khangnah la om. A pa Pathen amah te ka uem vetih amah te ka pomsang ni.
3 Yahweh is a warrior; Yahweh is his name.
BOEIPA tah caemtloek hlang coeng tih, a ming tah Yahweh ni.
4 He has thrown the king’s chariots and his army into the sea; His best officers all drowned in the Red Sea (OR, Gulf of Suez).
Pharaoh kah leng neh a caem te tuipuei la a dong pah tih a boeilu hlangrhoei te carhaek tuipuei ah a buek sak.
5 The [water covered them like] a flood; they sank to the bottom like a stone.
Tuidung loh amih te a thing tih a laedil ah lungto bangla suntla.
6 O Yahweh, your right arm has awesome power; with that power [MTY], O Yahweh, you have crushed/smashed the enemy into pieces.
BOEIPA nang kah bantang kut tah thadueng neh thangpom uh tih, BOEIPA nang kah bantang kut loh thunkha khaw a noi.
7 You have gloriously defeated your enemies. Because you were angry with them, you have [destroyed them] like a fire burns up straw [SIM].
Na hoemdamnah cangpai lamloh nang aka thoh thil khaw, na koengloeng tih na thinsa na tueih vaengah, amih te divawt bangla a hlawp.
8 You blew on the sea, and the water piled up high; the water stood up like two walls. In the deepest part of the sea [the water] became thick/solid, [as though] it was frozen.
Na hnarhong dongkah yilh lamloh tui hol uh tih, tuipuei tuilung ah tuidung aka dok uh tuisih khaw som bangla pai.
9 [Our] enemies said, ‘We will pursue them and catch up to them. We will draw our swords and strike them. After we defeat them, we will divide up the spoils. We will take [from them] all we want.’
Thunkha long tah ka hloem vetih ka kae vaengah ka hinglu a cung hil amih te kutbuem la ka tael ni. Ka cunghang te ka yueh vetih ka kut loh amih a pang bitni.
10 But you blew on them with your breath, and then the sea covered them. They sank like lead/rocks in the big waves.
Na hil neh na hmuh tih tuipuei loh amih a khuk vaengah tah tui khuet khuiah kawnlawk bangla buek.
11 Yahweh, among their gods, there is no god like you [RHQ]! You are glorious, completely different from all that you made. (There is no god like you!/What god is like you?) [RHQ] There is no one who can perform all kinds of miracles [DOU] like you do [RHQ]!
Namah bangla pathen rhoek lakli ah unim aka om? BOEIPA aw, namah bangla hmuencim ah unim a thangpom? Khobaerhambae a saii bangla koehnah khaw rhih om pai.
12 When you stretched out your right hand, the earth swallowed up [our enemies]
Na bantang kut na thueng vaengah amih te diklai loh a dolh.
13 You faithfully loved the people you rescued; with your power you are leading them to the land that you have set apart.
Pilnam na tlan te na sitlohnah neh na mawt vetih na tolkhoeng cim la na sahri neh na khool ni.
14 The people of [other] nations will hear [what you have done]; and they will tremble. The people in Philistia will be terrified.
Pilnam loh a yaak vetih tlai uh ni. Philistia khosa rhoek te bungtloh loh a kawlek ni.
15 The chiefs in Edom will be dismayed. The leaders in Moab will be so afraid, they will shake. All those who live in Canaan will faint.
Edom khoboei rhoek te let uh vetih Moab ngalhatung rhoek te thuennah loh a tuuk ni. Kanaan khosa rhoek khaw boeih paci uh ni.
16 They will be terrified and fearful because of your great strength [MTY]. But they will be as silent as stones until your people march past them, the people you freed from being slaves in Egypt,
Na ban tanglue lamloh amih soah mueirhih neh birhihnah khaw tla ni. BOEIPA namah kah pilnam a khum hil, na lai pilnam a khum hil lungto bangla kuemsuem uh bitni.
17 to go to [Canaan land]. You will enable them to live [MET] on your hill, at the place that you, O Yahweh, have chosen to be your home, in the (holy place/temple) that you yourself will build.
Amih te na khuen vetih na rho tlang dongah na phung ni. BOEIPA aw te hmuen ah khosak ham na saii tih ka Boeipa kah rhokso khaw namah kut long ni a saii.
18 O Yahweh, you will rule forever!
BOEIPA ni kumhal ham a manghai yoeyah eh?,” a ti uh.
19 The Israeli people walked through the middle of the sea on dry ground. But when the king’s horses and chariots and horsemen tried to go through the sea, Yahweh caused the water to come back and cover them.”
Te vaengah Pharaoh kah marhang tah amah kah leng neh a marhang caem te khaw tuili khuila kun uh. Te dongah BOEIPA loh amih soah tuipuei tui te a mael sak. Tedae Israel ca rhoek tah tuipuei tuilung kah laiphuei dongah cet uh.
20 Then Miriam, who was Aaron’s older sister and a (prophetess/woman who spoke messages that came directly from God), picked up her tambourine,
Te vaengah Aaron ngannu, tonghmanu Miriam loh a kut dongah kamrhing a muk. A hnukah manu boeih khaw kamrhing neh lamnah neh ha pawk uh.
21 and she sang this song to Yahweh: “Sing to Yahweh, because he has triumphed gloriously [over his enemies]. He has thrown the horses and their riders into the sea.”
Te vaengah amih te Miriam loh, “Marhang te phul la phul cakhaw a sokah aka ngol te tuili khuila a phok coeng dongah lah BOEIPA te hlai uh pai,” tila a doo.
22 Then Moses/I led the Israeli people away from the Red Sea (OR, Gulf of Suez). They/we went to the desert at Shur. They/We walked for three days, but they/we could not find any water.
Te phoeiah Moses loh Israel te carhaek tuipuei lamloh a khuen tih Shur khosoek la pawk uh. Tedae hnin thum caeh kah khosoek ah tah tui hmu uh voel pawh.
23 So they/we [went on and] came to a [place named] Marah. [There was] water [there, but] they/we could not drink it, because it was bitter. That is why they named the place Marah, [which is the Hebrew word that means ‘bitter’].
Marah la a pawk vaengah khaw Marah tui te khahing tih ok la lo pawh. Te dongah a ming khaw Marah a sui uh.
24 The people complained to Moses/me, saying, “What are we going to drink?”
Te vaengah pilnam te Moses taengah nul uh tih, “Balae n'ok eh?” a ti uh.
25 So Moses/I prayed earnestly to Yahweh. Then Yahweh showed him/me a tree. So he/I cut off [one of the branches] and threw it into the water, and the water became good to drink. There at Marah, Yahweh gave them various laws to direct their lives. He also tested them there, to determine if they would obey him,
Tedae BOEIPA taengah pang tih BOEIPA loh a thuinuet thing te tui khuila a voeih daengah tui khaw tui. Anih ham oltlueh neh laitloeknah ni pahoi a khueh pah tih pahoi a noemcai coeng.
26 by saying, “I am Yahweh, your God. If you will carefully obey me when I speak [to you], and do those things that I know are right, and pay close attention to all the things that I command you, I will keep you from being afflicted by all the diseases that I brought on the Egyptians. Do not forget that I am the one who heals you.”
Te vaengah, “BOEIPA na Pathen ol te na yaak rhoe na yaak tih a mikhmuh ah a thuem la na saii atah a olpaek te hnakaeng lamtah a oltlueh te boeih tuem. Nang aka hoeih sak he BOEIPA kamah. Te dongah Egypt soah tlohtat cungkuem ka khuen te nang soah ka khueh mahpawh,” a ti.
27 [After they/we left Marah], they/we came to a [place named] Elim. There were twelve springs of water and 70 palm trees there. So they/we camped there.
Te phoeiah Elim la pawk uh tih tuiphuet tui hlai nit neh rhophoe sawmrhih ana om. Te dongah tui taengah pahoi rhaeh uh.
