< Genesis 44 >

1 And he commanded the steward of his house, saying, Fill the men's sacks [with] food, as much as they can carry, and put every man's money in his sack's mouth.
Ahnimouh ni imkaringkung koevah, ahnimouh ni aphu thai yit touh, cawngko pakawi pouh nateh, amamae tangka rip hah amamae cawngko som koe lengkaleng tat pouh.
2 And put my cup, the silver cup, in the sack's mouth of the youngest, and his corn money: and he did according to the word that Joseph had spoken.
Hahoi kaie manang, ngun manang hah a cahnoung e cawngko som dawkvah cakang phu tangka hoi na ta pouh han, telah kâ a poe.
3 As soon as the morning was light, the men were sent away, they, and their asses.
Khodai tahma vah ahnimouh teh amamae lanaw hoi a kamthaw awh.
4 [And] when they had gone out of the city, [and] were not [yet] far off, Joseph said to his steward, Arise, follow after the men; and when thou dost overtake them, say to them, Why have ye rewarded evil for good?
Kho thung hoi a kamthaw awh teh ahlapoungnae koe a pha awh hoehnahlan, Joseph ni imkaringkung koe thaw nateh ahnimanaw hah pâlei haw. Hahoi na pha toteh ahnimouh koe, bangkongmaw hawinae hah hawihoehnae hoi na patho awh.
5 [Is] not this [the cup] in which my lord drinketh, and by which indeed he divineth? ye have done evil in so doing.
Hot hah, kaie bawipa e misur neinae hoi hma lae ka tho hane kong a panuenae nahoehmaw. Het patet lae na o awh e heh puenghoi na payon awh, na ti pouh han.
6 And he overtook them, and he spoke to them these same words.
Hahoi, rek a pha toteh hottelah a dei pouh.
7 And they said to him, Why saith my lord these words? Far be it from us that thy servants should do according to this thing:
Ahnimouh ni ahni koe, bawipa, bangkongmaw het patet lae lawk na dei, na sannaw ni hot patet e hno ka sak awh hoeh.
8 Behold, the money which we found in our sacks' mouths, we brought again to thee from the land of Canaan: how then should we steal from thy lord's house silver or gold?
Khenhaw! kaimae cawngko som dawk ka hmu awh e tangka hoi Kanaan kho hoi nang koe bout ka thokhai awh nahoehmaw. Bangtelamaw na bawipa im e tangka hoi sui teh ka paru thai awh han namaw.
9 With whom [soever] of thy servants it shall be found, both let him die, and we also will be my lord's bond-men.
Na sannaw thung dawk hote hno na hmunae pueng dout seh. Kaimouh hai bawipa e san lah ka o awh yawkaw han, ati awh.
10 And he said, Now also [let] it [be] according to your words: he with whom it shall be found, shall be my servant; and ye shall be blameless.
Ahni ni bokheiyah, atu hai nangmae lawk patetlah lawiseh, hno ka hmunae tami hah ka san lah ao vaiteh, nangmouh teh toun kaawm hoeh lah na o awh han telah ati.
11 Then they speedily took down every man his sack to the ground, and opened every man his sack.
Hat nah tahma vah amamae cawngko lengkaleng a patue awh teh lengkaleng a paawng awh.
12 And he searched, [and] began at the eldest, and left at the youngest: and the cup was found in Benjamin's sack.
Ahni ni kacuepoung koehoi kanawpoung totouh a tawng pouh. Hattoteh Benjamin e cawngko dawk manang teh a hmu.
13 Then they rent their clothes, and loaded every man his ass, and returned to the city.
Hat nah tahma vah a khohna a phi awh, lanaw a phu sak awh teh kho dawk a ban awh.
14 And Judah and his brethren came to Joseph's house, (for he [was] yet there: ) and they fell before him on the ground.
Judah hoi a hmaunawnghanaw teh Joseph im a pha awh, ama teh haw vah a la o rah. Hahoi a hmalah a tabo awh.
15 And Joseph said to them, What deed [is] this that ye have done? knew ye not that such a man as I can certainly divine?
Hahoi Joseph ni bangmaw na sak awh. Kai patetlae tami ni hmalah ka tho hane hno a panue han tie na panuek awh hoeh maw, telah ati.
16 And Judah said, What shall we say to my lord? what shall we speak? or how shall we clear ourselves? God hath found out the iniquity of thy servants: behold we [are] my lord's servants, both we, and [he] also with whom the cup is found.
Judah ni ka bawipa nang koe bangvai ka dei awh toung. Bangmaw ka pâpha thai awh han. Cathut ni na sannaw yonnae teh a hmu toe. Khenhaw! ka bawipa kaimouh hoi ahnie kut dawk manang a hmu e hoi na san lah doeh ka o awh toe telah ati.
17 And he said, Far be it from me that I should do so: the man in whose hand the cup is found, he shall be my servant; and as for you, go in peace to your father.
Hatei ahni ni, hottelah khoeroe ka sak mahoeh, a kut dawk manang a hmunae dueng doeh ka san lah ao vaiteh nangmouh teh na pa koe karoumcalah cet awh, telah ati.
18 Then Judah came near to him, and said, Oh my lord, let thy servant, I pray thee, speak a word in my lord's ears, and let not thy anger burn against thy servant; for thou [art] even as Pharaoh.
Hat nah tahma vah, Judah ni Joseph hah a hnai teh, Oe ka bawipa, pahren lahoi na san heh, ka bawipa na san heh na hnâthainae koe lawk kam touh na dei sak haw. Na lungkhueknae hah na san koe kaman sak hanh. Bangtelah tetpawiteh, nang teh Faro patetlah doeh na o.
19 My lord asked his servants, saying, Have ye a father, or a brother?
Ka bawipa nang ni, na pa nakunghai, hmaunawngha nakunghai na tawn maw telah na sannaw hah na pacei.
20 And we said to my lord, We have a father, an old man, and a child of his old age, a little one: and his brother is dead, and he alone is left of his mother, and his father loveth him.
Kaimouh ni nang koe ka matawngpoung e na pa ka tawn awh. Matawng sawi a sak e camoca ka tawn awh teh buet touh teh a due toe, a manu ni a khe e dawk ahni dueng ao teh a na pa ni a pahren poung, ka ti awh.
21 And thou saidst to thy servants, Bring him down to me, that I may set my eyes upon him.
Nang ni, ahni ka hmu thai nahanlah kai koe thokhai awh ati.
22 And we said to my lord, The lad cannot leave his father; for [if] he should leave his father, [his father] would die.
Ka bawipa kaimouh ni tongpaca ni a na pa cettakhai thai mahoeh, bangkongtetpawiteh, a na pa cettakhai pawiteh a na pa a due han doeh ka ti awh.
23 And thou saidst to thy servants, Except your youngest brother shall come down with you, ye shall see my face no more.
Hatei, nang ni na nawngha cahnoung nangmouh koe tho van hoehpawiteh, ka mei na hmawt awh mahoeh toe, ati.
24 And it came to pass, when we came to thy servant, my father, we told him the words of my lord.
Hahoi, na sannaw apa koe ka pha awh toteh, ka bawipa, bawipa nange lawk hah ka dei pouh awh.
25 And our father said, Go again; buy us a little food.
Apa ni bout cet awh nateh, mamouh hanelah cakang youn touh bout ran awh, ati.
26 And we said, We cannot go down: if our youngest brother shall be with us, then will we go down; for we may not see the man's face, except our youngest brother shall [be] with us.
Hatei kaimouh ni ka cet thai awh mahoeh, nawngha cahnoung kaimouh koe tho van pawiteh dueng doeh ka cei awh han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, nawngha cahnoung kaimouh koe tho van hoehpawiteh ahnie mei ka hmawt thai awh mahoeh toe, telah ka ti pouh awh.
27 And thy servant my father, said to us, Ye know that my wife bore me two [sons]:
Na san kaimae na pa ni, ka yu ni capa kahni touh na khe pouh tie na panue awh.
28 And the one went out from me, and I said, Surely he is torn in pieces; and I have not seen him since:
Buet touh teh kai koehoi a tâco teh koung paset e lah ao mue toe, hahoi teh ahni ka hmawt boihoeh toe.
29 And if ye take this also from me, and mischief shall befall him, ye will bring down my gray hairs with sorrow to the grave. (Sheol h7585)
Hahoi hete camo heh kai koe hoi na ceikhai teh, runae kâhmo pawiteh, ka sampo hah lungmathoenae lahoi phuen dawk na loum sak awh toe, telah ati. (Sheol h7585)
30 Now therefore, when I come to thy servant my father, and the lad is not with us; (seeing that his life is bound up in the lad's life)
Hatdawkvah, tongpaca heh kaimouh koe tho van laipalah na san apa koe ka tho pawiteh, a hringnae hoi tongpaca e hringnae mekkawme lah ao dawkvah,
31 It shall come to pass, when he seeth that the lad [is] not [with us], that he will die: and thy servants will bring down the gray hairs of thy servant our father, with sorrow to the grave. (Sheol h7585)
tongpaca tho van hoeh tie hah a panue tahma kadout han doeh. Hattoteh na sannaw ni na san apa e sampo hah lungmathoenae hoi phuen koe ka loum sak yawkaw han doeh. (Sheol h7585)
32 For thy servant became surety for the lad to my father, saying, If I bring him not to thee, then I will bear the blame to my father for ever.
Bangtelah tetpawiteh, na san ni nang koe ka thokhai hoehpawiteh, a yungyoe na hmalah yonpen e lah ka o han telah apa koe tongpaca kong dawk thoe yo ka bo toe.
33 Now therefore, I pray thee, let thy servant abide instead of the lad, a bond-man to my lord; and let the lad return with his brethren.
Pahren lahoi na san hah tongpaca yueng lah ka bawipa, na san lah na awm sak nateh, tongpaca heh a hmaunaw hoi ban sak leih.
34 For how shall I return to my father, and the lad [be] not with me? lest perhaps I see the evil that shall come on my father.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, kai koe tongpaca tho van hoehpawiteh bangtelamaw apa koe ka cei thai awh han vaw. Telah hoehpawiteh, apa koe ka phat hane thoenae teh ka hmu payon awh han doeh, telah ati.
