Exodus 7
1 Then Yahweh said to Moses/me, “Listen [carefully]. [Just like I enabled prophet to speak my messages], I will cause the king [to consider that] you are like a god, and that Aaron is like a prophet.
BAWIPA ni Mosi koe, nang teh faro siangpahrang e cathut lah na o sak. Na hmau Aron teh na profet lah ao han.
2 You must tell everything I command you [to tell to your older] brother Aaron, and he will tell that to the king. He must tell the king to let the Israeli people leave his land.
Kâ na poe e naw pueng hah nang ni bout na dei han. Faro siangpahrang ni Isarelnaw hah a ram dawk hoi a tâco sak nahanlah na hmau Aron ni ahni koe a dei pouh han.
3 But I will make the king stubborn [IDM]. As a result, even though I perform many kinds of (miracles/terrifying things) [DOU] [here] in Egypt,
Kai ni hai Faro e lung ka pata sak vaiteh, Izip ram dawk kaie kângairu mitnoutnaw hah ka pung sak han.
4 the king will not pay any attention to what you say. Then I will punish [MTY] the people of Egypt [MTY] very severely [MTY], and I will lead/bring the tribes of the Israeli people out of Egypt.
Hateiteh, Faro siangpahrang ni nangmae lawk hah ngâi laipalah ao han. Kai ni hai Izip ram lathueng ka kut ka dâw vaiteh, kalenpounge lacik hoi ka ransahu, ka tami Isarelnaw hah Izip ram hoi ka tâcokhai han.
5 Then, when I show my great power [MTY] to the Egyptian people and bring the Israeli people out from among them, they will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].”
Hottelah, Izip ram lathueng ka kut ka dâw vaiteh, Isarelnaw ahnimouh koehoi ka tâcokhai toteh, Kai teh BAWIPA doeh tie Izipnaw ni a panue awh han telah Mosi koe atipouh.
6 Aaron and Moses/I did what Yahweh told them/us to do. They/We [went and spoke to the king].
Mosi hoi Aron ni BAWIPA e kâpoelawk patetlah a sak roi.
7 At that time, Moses/I was 80 years old, and Aaron was 83 years old.
Faro koe a dei pouh roi navah, Mosi teh a kum 80, Aron teh a kum 83 touh a pha roi.
8 Yahweh said to Moses/me,
BAWIPA ni Mosi hoi Aron koe bout a dei pouh e teh,
9 “If the king says to you, ‘Prove [that God sent] you by performing a miracle,’ then say to Aaron, ‘Throw your stick down in front of the king, in order that it may become a snake.’”
Faro siangpahrang ni nangmouh koe kângairuhno na patue haw tetpawiteh, na sonron hah lat nateh a hmalah tâkhawng pouh telah Aron koe a dei pouh. Sonron haiyah tahrun lah a kangcoung han telah atipouh.
10 So Aaron and Moses/I went to the king and did what Yahweh had commanded [them/us to do]. Aaron threw his stick down in front of the king and his officials, and it became a snake.
Mosi hoi Aron ni Faro siangpahrang koe a kâen roi teh BAWIPA ni a dei e patetlah a sak pouh roi. Aron ni Faro siangpahrang hoi a sannaw e hmalah sonron a tâkhawng teh tahrun lah a kangcoung.
11 Then the king summoned his sorcerers and men who performed magic. They did the same thing, using their magic.
Hat navah, Faro siangpahrang ni lungkaangnaw camkathoumnaw hah a kaw teh Izip ram e mitpaleikathoumnaw nihai, hot patetlah a sak awh.
12 They all threw down their sticks, and they became snakes. But Aaron’s stick, [which had become a snake], swallowed up all their sticks!
A sin awh e sonronnaw hah a tâkhawng awh teh tahrun lah a kangcoung awh. Hateiteh, Aron e sonron ni ahnimae sonronnaw hah koung a payawp.
13 But the king continued to be stubborn [IDM], just as Yahweh had predicted, and he would not pay attention to [what Aaron and Moses/I said].
BAWIPA ni a dei e patetlah Faro siangpahrang teh a lungpata sak teh, ahnimae lawk hah ngâi laipalah ao.
14 Then Yahweh said to Moses/me, “The king is very stubborn [IDM]. He refuses to allow [my] people to go.
BAWIPA nihai, Faro siangpahrang e lung a pata sak teh Isarelnaw hah tâcawt sak hoeh.
15 So [tomorrow] morning, go to him as he is going down to the [Nile] River [to bathe]. Wait for him at the riverbank. [When he comes out of the water, show] him the stick, the one which became a snake.
Amom vah, Faro siangpahrang koe cet haw. Ahni ni tui namran lah a cei han. Ahni a pha hoehnahlan tuipui namran lah kangdout haw. Tahrun lah kangcoung e sonron hah na kut dawk sin haw.
16 Say to him, ‘Yahweh God, the one [we] Hebrews [worship], sent me to you to tell you to let my people go, in order that they may worship him in the desert. [We told you that], but you have not paid any attention to it.
Hebru miphunnaw e Cathut Jehovah ni kaie taminaw ni kahrawng vah Kai na bawk hanelah, ahnimouh hah tâcawt sak leih telah kai heh nang koe na patoun toe. Nang ni atu totouh ngâi laipalah na o awh rah.
17 [So now] Yahweh says this: “This is the way you will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do]. Watch this: I am going to strike the water that is in the Nile [River] with the stick that is in my hand. [When I do that], the water will become blood (OR, [red like] blood [MTY]).
BAWIPA ni Kai teh BAWIPA doeh tie hah nang ni bangtelamaw na panue thai han tetpawiteh, ka sin e sonron hoi tuipui ka hem vaiteh hote tui teh thi lah a coung han.
18 Then the fish in the Nile [River] will die, and the [water in] the river will stink, and the Egyptians will not be able to drink water from the Nile River.”’”
Tuipui dawk kaawm e tanganaw a due awh han. Tuipui hai a hmui a tho han. Izipnaw ni tuipui tui a panuet awh han. Akong hah bout dei pouh telah Mosi koe atipouh.
19 Yahweh said to Moses/me, “[When you are talking to the king], say to Aaron, ‘Hold your stick out [as though you were holding it] over the water in Egypt—over the rivers, the canals, the ponds, and over the pools of water, in order that [all of it] may become [red like] blood.’ When Aaron does that, there will be blood throughout Egypt, even in wooden jars and in stone jars.”
BAWIPA ni Mosi koe bout a dei pouh e teh, Aron koe, na sonron sin nateh Izip ram kaawm e palang, tuipui, tuikamuem tui, tuido hoi tuiphueknaw pueng e lathueng vah kut dâw haw. Izip ram pueng dawk thing manang, talung hlaamnaw pueng dawk thi ao hane kong hah dei pouh telah atipouh.
20 So Aaron and Moses/I did what Yahweh commanded. As the king and his officials were watching, Aaron lifted up his stick and then struck the water in the Nile [River] with it. And all the water in the river turned [red like] blood.
Mosi hoi Aron ni BAWIPA ni a dei e patetlah a sak roi teh, Aron ni Faro siangpahrang hoi a sannaw e hmalah sonron a pho teh tuipui a hem teh tui pueng teh thi lah a coung.
21 Then all the fish died. And the water stank, with the result that the Egyptians could not drink water from the river. Everywhere in Egypt [the water] became [red like] blood.
Tuipui dawk kaawm e tanganaw hai a due. Tuipui teh a hmui a tho dawkvah Izip taminaw ni tuipui hah net thai awh hoeh. Izip ram pueng dawk thi hah koung ao.
22 But the men who performed magic did the same thing using their magic. So the king remained stubborn [IDM], and he would not pay attention to what Aaron and Moses/I said, just as Yahweh had predicted.
Izip miphun camkathoumnaw ni hai camthoumnae lahoi hottelah a sak awh. BAWIPA ni a dei tangcoung patetlah Faro siangpahrang teh a lungpata teh ahnimae lawk ngâi laipalah ao.
23 The king turned and went back to his palace, and he did not think any more about it [IDM].
Faro teh a im a ban teh hote hnonaw hah a lungthin dawk tat hoeh.
24 The Egyptians [HYP] dug [into the ground] near the Nile [River] to get water to drink, because they could not drink the water from the river.
Hat navah, Izipnaw ni tuipui tui hah a nei thai awh hoeh dawkvah tui nei hane a hmu thai a nahanlah tuipui rai lah tui a tai awh.
25 (One week/Seven days) passed after Yahweh caused the water in the Nile [River to become red like blood].
BAWIPA ni tuipui a hem hnukkhu hnin sari touh aloum sak.
