< Exodus 14 >

1 The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
Angraengh mah Mosi khaeah,
2 “Speak to the children of Israel, that they turn back and encamp before Pihahiroth, between Migdol and the sea, before Baal Zephon. You shall encamp opposite it by the sea.
Israel kaminawk khaeah, Migdol vangpui hoi tuipui salak, Baal-Zephon vangpui taeng, tuipui taeng Pi-Hahiroth ah amlaem oh loe, tuipui taengah atai o han, thui paeh.
3 Pharaoh will say of the children of Israel, ‘They are entangled in the land. The wilderness has shut them in.’
Faro mah Israel kaminawk kawng pongah, Nihcae loe saoeng ah raihaih tongh o, praezaek mah pakaa khoep boeh, tiah thui tih.
4 I will harden Pharaoh’s heart, and he will follow after them; and I will get honour over Pharaoh, and over all his armies; and the Egyptians shall know that I am the LORD.” They did so.
Faro to palung ka thahsak moe, nihcae ka patomsak let han; toe Faro hoi anih ih misatuh kaminawk nuiah, ka lensawkhaih to kam tuengsak han; to naah Izip kaminawk mah kai loe Angraeng ah ka oh, tito panoek o tih, tiah a naa. To pongah Israel kaminawk mah to tiah sak o.
5 The king of Egypt was told that the people had fled; and the heart of Pharaoh and of his servants was changed towards the people, and they said, “What is this we have done, that we have let Israel go from serving us?”
Kaminawk cawnh o boih boeh, tiah Izip siangpahrang khaeah thuih pae o naah, Faro hoi a tamnanawk loe uthaih palungthin to tawnh o moe, kaminawk khaeah, Tikhoe hae tiah na sak o moe, aicae han toksah Israel kaminawk to na tacawt o sak boih loe? tiah a naa o.
6 He prepared his chariot, and took his army with him;
To pongah angmah ih hrang leeng to suek coek moe, angmah ih kaminawk to nawnto a caeh haih;
7 and he took six hundred chosen chariots, and all the chariots of Egypt, with captains over all of them.
kahoih koek hrang leeng cumvai tarukto a lak moe, Izip prae ih hrang angthueng kaminawk, misatuh angraengnawk to a kawk.
8 The LORD hardened the heart of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and he pursued the children of Israel; for the children of Israel went out with a high hand.
Angraeng mah Izip siangpahrang, Faro ih palung to thahsak pongah, anih mah Israel kaminawk to patom; toe Israel kaminawk loe amoekhaih hoiah caeh o.
9 The Egyptians pursued them. All the horses and chariots of Pharaoh, his horsemen, and his army overtook them encamping by the sea, beside Pihahiroth, before Baal Zephon.
Izip kaminawk, Faro ih hrangnawk hoi hrang leengnawk, hrang angthueng kaminawk hoi misatuh kaminawk mah Israel kaminawk to patom o moe, Bal-Zephon hmaa ih, vapui taeng Pi-Hariroth ah anghak o naah a kae o.
10 When Pharaoh came near, the children of Israel lifted up their eyes, and behold, the Egyptians were marching after them; and they were very afraid. The children of Israel cried out to the LORD.
Israel kaminawk mah doeng o naah, Faro loe anghnai daek ah phak boeh; to naah Izip kaminawk mah nihcae patom boeh, tito panoek o, Israel kaminawk loe paroeai zit o moe, Angraeng khaeah hangh o.
11 They said to Moses, “Because there were no graves in Egypt, have you taken us away to die in the wilderness? Why have you treated us this way, to bring us out of Egypt?
Israel caanawk mah Mosi khaeah, Izip prae ah taprong om ai pongah maw, duek hanah praezaek ah nang caeh haih? Tipongah hae tiah sak hanah, Izip prae thung hoi nang caeh haih loe?
12 Isn’t this the word that we spoke to you in Egypt, saying, ‘Leave us alone, that we may serve the Egyptians’? For it would have been better for us to serve the Egyptians than to die in the wilderness.”
Izip prae ah, Na caeh o taak ah, kaicae loe Izip kaminawk ih tok to ka sak pae o halat han boeh, tiah kang thuih o na ai maw? Praezaek ah ka duek o pongah loe, Izip kaminawk ih toksak to kaicae han hoih kue, tiah a naa o.
13 Moses said to the people, “Don’t be afraid. Stand still, and see the salvation of the LORD, which he will work for you today; for you will never again see the Egyptians whom you have seen today.
Mosi mah kaminawk khaeah, Zii o hmah, kacakah angdoe oh, vaihni ah Angraeng mah nangcae hnuksak han ih, pahlonghaih to khen oh; vaihni ah na hnuk o ih Izip kaminawk loe, dungzan khoek to na hnu o let mak ai boeh.
14 The LORD will fight for you, and you shall be still.”
Nangcae loe anghngai o duem ah, Angraeng mah nangcae han misa na tuh pae tih, tiah a naa.
15 The LORD said to Moses, “Why do you cry to me? Speak to the children of Israel, that they go forward.
To pacoengah Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah, Tipongah kai khaeah na hang o loe? Israel kaminawk khaeah hmabang caeh o poe hanah thui pae oh;
16 Lift up your rod, and stretch out your hand over the sea and divide it. Then the children of Israel shall go into the middle of the sea on dry ground.
toe na cunghet to phok tahang ah, tuipui nuiah na ban to payang ah loe, tuipui to pakhoih ah; to naah Israel kaminawk loe tuipui um li ah saoeng baktiah caeh o tih.
17 Behold, I myself will harden the hearts of the Egyptians, and they will go in after them. I will get myself honour over Pharaoh, and over all his armies, over his chariots, and over his horsemen.
Khenah, nihcae mah nangcae patom o hanah, Izip kaminawk to palung ka thahsak han; Faro hoi angmah ih misatuh kaminawk, hrang leengnawk hoi hrang angthueng kaminawk boih nuiah, ka lensawkhaih to amtueng tih.
18 The Egyptians shall know that I am the LORD when I have gotten myself honour over Pharaoh, over his chariots, and over his horsemen.”
Faro hoi angmah ih hrang leeng, anih ih hrang angthueng kaminawk nuiah ka lensawkhaih to kam tuengsak naah, Kai loe Angraeng ah ka oh, tito Izip kaminawk mah panoek o tih, tiah a naa.
19 The angel of God, who went before the camp of Israel, moved and went behind them; and the pillar of cloud moved from before them, and stood behind them.
Israel misatuh kaminawk ataihaih hmaa ah kacaeh, Sithaw ih van kami loe amlaem moe, nihcae hnuk ah a caeh; nihcae hmaa ah kacaeh tamai tung doeh nihcae hnukbang ah angdoet sut;
20 It came between the camp of Egypt and the camp of Israel. There was the cloud and the darkness, yet it gave light by night. One didn’t come near the other all night.
Izip misatuh kaminawk ataihaih ahmuen hoi Israel kaminawk ataihaih ahmuen salakah a caeh; tamai loe maeto hanah vinghaih ah oh moe, maeto hanah loe aanghaih ah oh pongah, nihcae loe aqum puek maeto hoi maeto khaeah caeh o thai ai.
21 Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and the LORD caused the sea to go back by a strong east wind all night, and made the sea dry land, and the waters were divided.
To pacoengah Mosi mah tuipui bangah ban to payangh, to naah Angraeng mah aqum puek ni angyae bang hoiah takhi kaham to songsak, tui to saoeng ah angcoengsak moe, tui to hnetto ah amkhoih.
22 The children of Israel went into the middle of the sea on the dry ground; and the waters were a wall to them on their right hand and on their left.
Israel kaminawk loe tuipui um li ah, saoeng ih lam caeh baktih toengah a caeh o; tui loe banqoi bantang im tapang baktiah oh.
23 The Egyptians pursued, and went in after them into the middle of the sea: all of Pharaoh’s horses, his chariots, and his horsemen.
Izip kaminawk loe Faro ih hrang, hrang leeng, hrang angthueng kaminawk hoiah nihcae to patom o moe, tuipui um li ah a caeh o.
24 In the morning watch, the LORD looked out on the Egyptian army through the pillar of fire and of cloud, and confused the Egyptian army.
Akhawnbang ah loe Angraeng mah tamai hmai thung hoiah Izip misatuh kaminawk to khet tathuk, to naah Izip misatuh kaminawk to raihaih paek.
25 He took off their chariot wheels, and they drove them heavily; so that the Egyptians said, “Let’s flee from the face of Israel, for the LORD fights for them against the Egyptians!”
Hrang leeng caeh thaih han ai ah, hrang leeng khoknawk to angmongsak boih; to naah Izip kaminawk mah, Israel kaminawk khae hoi cawn o ving si boeh; Angraeng mah hae kaminawk hanah Izip kaminawk to misa tuk pae boeh, tiah a thuih o.
26 The LORD said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand over the sea, that the waters may come again on the Egyptians, on their chariots, and on their horsemen.”
To naah Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah, Izip kaminawk, hrang leengnawk hoi hrang angthueng kaminawk nuiah, tui angcuu let moe, khuk hmoek hanah, tuipui nuiah na ban to payangh ah, tiah a naa.
27 Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and the sea returned to its strength when the morning appeared; and the Egyptians fled against it. The LORD overthrew the Egyptians in the middle of the sea.
Mosi mah tuipui nuiah a ban to payangh; akhawnbang ah loe tuipui kathuk ah tui to angcuu let; Izip kaminawk loe cawnh o; toe Angraeng mah Izip kaminawk to tuipui um ah uemsak king.
28 The waters returned, and covered the chariots and the horsemen, even all Pharaoh’s army that went in after them into the sea. There remained not so much as one of them.
Tui loe angcuu let moe, Nihcae patom Faro ih misatuh kaminawk, hrang leengnawk hoi hrang angthueng kaminawk to uem boih; kami maeto doeh anghmat o ai.
29 But the children of Israel walked on dry land in the middle of the sea, and the waters were a wall to them on their right hand and on their left.
Toe Israel kaminawk loe tuipui um li ah saoeng baktiah caeh o poe; tui loe nihcae han banqoi bantang im tapang baktiah oh.
30 Thus the LORD saved Israel that day out of the hand of the Egyptians; and Israel saw the Egyptians dead on the seashore.
To na niah Angraeng mah Israel kaminawk to Izip kaminawk ih ban thung hoiah pahlong; tuipui taengah kadueh Izip kaminawk ih qok to Israel kaminawk mah hnuk o.
31 Israel saw the great work which the LORD did to the Egyptians, and the people feared the LORD; and they believed in the LORD and in his servant Moses.
Izip kaminawk nuiah Angraeng mah kalen parai toksakhaih to amtuengsak, tito Israel kaminawk mah hnuk o naah, Angraeng to zit o moe, Angraeng hoi a tamna Mosi nuiah tanghaih to tawnh o.
