< Genesis 17 >

1 When Abram was ninety-nine years old, the LORD appeared to Abram and said to him, “I am God Almighty. Walk before me and be blameless.
Abram chu kum somko le kumko alhin in Pathen in ahoulimpi in hitin aseipeh e, “Keima Elshaddai Pathen chungnung kahi. Hijeh chun lunglhaisel in nei hou jing in lang, chule thenna hinkho mang jing in,” ati.
2 I will make my covenant between me and you, and will multiply you exceedingly.”
Keiman nangma to ikikah a kitepna nape ing ka-ting hichu thonlou hela nangma chilhah simsen lou kapeh ding nahi.
3 Abram fell on his face. God talked with him, saying,
Hichun Abram in amai tol lang aven hichun Pathen in ahin hou vin hitin aseiye,
4 “As for me, behold, my covenant is with you. You will be the father of a multitude of nations.
Hiche hi keima le nangma kinop tona ahi, keiman nangma hi nam jouse mipa kaso ding nahi ati.
5 Your name will no more be called Abram, but your name will be Abraham; for I have made you the father of a multitude of nations.
Abanna jong na min jong kakhel peh ding, Abram nahi tahlou ding, Hinlah nangma hi Abraham na kiti ding ahi tai, ajeh chu nangma hi nam jouse mipa nahi ding ahi tai.
6 I will make you exceedingly fruitful, and I will make nations of you. Kings will come out of you.
Keiman nangma hatah a kaga sah ding, na lolhin ding na chilhah ten nam tamtah ahin sondoh diu, chule leng thupitah tah jong amaho lah a hung umdoh ding ahiye.
7 I will establish my covenant between me and you and your offspring after you throughout their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be a God to you and to your offspring after you.
Keiman athah a nangma to iki noptona chu na chilhahte to kaki tepna avela ka phudoh kit ding nangma nunga na chilhahte a dinga jong, khang le khang kikah ajong, hiche hi atonsot'a hiding, keima na Pathen nu kahi jing ding chule nanam, na chilhahte Pathen jong kahi jing ding ahi.
8 I will give to you, and to your offspring after you, the land where you are travelling, all the land of Canaan, for an everlasting possession. I will be their God.”
Keiman Canaan gam pumpi ahin, tua nachen na gam kholjin banga nachen nau hi nason na chilhahte atonsot a goulo dinga ka peh ding, chule amaho dinga jong a Pathen'u kahi jing ding ahi,” ati.
9 God said to Abraham, “As for you, you shall keep my covenant, you and your offspring after you throughout their generations.
Hichun Pathen in Abraham ahoulimpi in, “Nangma tah in jong kinopto na hi na jui ding, chule na nunga nason na chilhahte dinga jong akhang lhum kei uva ajui ding'u ahi.
10 This is my covenant, which you shall keep, between me and you and your offspring after you. Every male amongst you shall be circumcised.
Hiche hi ahi kinopto na nangma le na chilhahte jousen ajui cheh ding, nangho lah a pasal jousen chep akitan soh kei ding'u ahi.
11 You shall be circumcised in the flesh of your foreskin. It will be a token of the covenant between me and you.
Nangman na bollou a hitheilou chu na tahsa vun val abohlai chu na chelhah soh kei ding, hichun avetsah chu ahile keima le nangma kikah a ki nopto na hijing ding ahi.
12 He who is eight days old shall be circumcised amongst you, every male throughout your generations, he who is born in the house, or bought with money from any foreigner who is not of your offspring.
Hiche hi nangma insung mite seh hilou vin, koi tobang nasoh na kol nangma insunga dinga na choh doh ho jouse jong ahop tha cheh ding,
13 He who is born in your house, and he who is bought with your money, must be circumcised. My covenant shall be in your flesh for an everlasting covenant.
Abonchauva chep na kitan cheh diu, na tahsa uva maha na poh u-chu keima toh atonsot na iki nopto na'uva umjing ding ahiye.
14 The uncircumcised male who is not circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin, that soul shall be cut off from his people. He has broken my covenant.”
Koi tobang pasal khat tou hiche kinopto na cheptan hi bol lou aumle ama chu kinopto na insunga kon'a paimanga um ding ahi, ajeh chu kinopto na ajuilou jeh ahi.
15 God said to Abraham, “As for Sarai your wife, you shall not call her name Sarai, but her name shall be Sarah.
Hichun Pathen in Abraham ahoulimpi in “Sarai na Inneipi Sarai na ti tahlou ding ahi, ijeh inem itile amanu min jong hi tua patna Sarah hiding ahi tai.
16 I will bless her, and moreover I will give you a son by her. Yes, I will bless her, and she will be a mother of nations. Kings of peoples will come from her.”
Keiman amanu hi phatthei kaboh a chu jongle ama nu akon a hi chapa khat kapeh ding nahi, hitia chu keiman amanu hi phatthei kaboh a ama jong “Sarah” chitin namtin nu hung hi ding mitin vaipi leng ding ho jeng jong amanu akona hung peng doh ding ahiuve,” ati.
17 Then Abraham fell on his face, and laughed, and said in his heart, “Will a child be born to him who is one hundred years old? Will Sarah, who is ninety years old, give birth?”
Hichun Abraham jong akun in tol lang aven anui tai, chuin alungthim in amale ama akihou vin, Keima hi kum jakhat kahi nunga mipa kahi thei ding ham? Chule ka inneipi Sarah jong kum som ko le kum ko ahi jouva naosen iti anei thei ding ham? ati.
18 Abraham said to God, “Oh that Ishmael might live before you!”
Abraham'in Pathen heng'a asei in, “Ahi thei ding le Ishmael hi nangma phattheibohna noiya um jing tahen.”
19 God said, “No, but Sarah, your wife, will bear you a son. You shall call his name Isaac. I will establish my covenant with him for an everlasting covenant for his offspring after him.
Hinlah Pathen in adonbut in, “ahipoi Sarah na inneipi in nangma adinga chapa khat nahin peh ding, nangman hiche chapang chu amin Isaac nasah ding ahi. Chule keiman amale ama nunga ason achilhahte dinga kinopto na chu atonsot geiya kinopto na a umjing dinga kaphu doh ding ahi.
20 As for Ishmael, I have heard you. Behold, I have blessed him, and will make him fruitful, and will multiply him exceedingly. He will become the father of twelve princes, and I will make him a great nation.
Ishmael jong chu phatthei kaboh ding nangman nathum ma bang'a, ama jeng jong hatah a kapun sah ding, chule ama chilhahte ho jong hatah a pung dingu ahi.
21 But I will establish my covenant with Isaac, whom Sarah will bear to you at this set time next year.”
Hinlah keima kitepna vang chu Sarah in khovei tulai phat'a hi nahin ding Isaac chuto bou ka phudoh ding ahi,” ati.
22 When he finished talking with him, God went up from Abraham.
Pathen in thu aseijou phat chun Abraham chu adalhatai.
23 Abraham took Ishmael his son, all who were born in his house, and all who were bought with his money: every male amongst the men of Abraham’s house, and circumcised the flesh of their foreskin in the same day, as God had said to him.
Hichun Abraham'in jong achapa Ishmael ahin, asoh pasal ama insunga peng den hihen, sum a achoh tho hi jongle, Abraham mite lah a pasal jouse chu apuikhom in, Pathen'in aseipeh bang bang chun hiche nikho mama chun chep atan peh soh kei in ahi.
24 Abraham was ninety-nine years old when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin.
Abraham'in chep akitan chun akum kum som ko le kum ko ana lhing tai.
25 Ishmael, his son, was thirteen years old when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin.
Chule achapa Ishmael in chep akitan chun kum som le kum thum ana lhing tan ahi.
26 In the same day both Abraham and Ishmael, his son, were circumcised.
Ani lhon in Abraham le achapa Ishmael chu nikhat na chep tan lhon gel ahi.
27 All the men of his house, those born in the house, and those bought with money from a foreigner, were circumcised with him.
Chule a insunga pasal jouse, insunga pengden hihen lang gam dang mi soh dinga akichoh tho hi jongle aboncha amatoh tha khat'a chep kitan thah cheh ahiuve.
