< Genesis 21 >

1 The LORD visited Sarah as he had said, and the LORD did to Sarah as he had spoken.
Pakaiyin ana seisa bang chun Sarah ahung vil in Sarah chunga asuh bulhit peh tai.
2 Sarah conceived, and bore Abraham a son in his old age, at the set time of which God had spoken to him.
Hichun Sarah in nao ahin vop'in, Abraham chu atehset nung in Pathen in atep peh phat don tah in chapa khat ahin pe tan ahi.
3 Abraham called his son who was born to him, whom Sarah bore to him, Isaac.
Abraham'in achapa chu amin Isaac asah tan ahi.
4 Abraham circumcised his son, Isaac, when he was eight days old, as God had commanded him.
Chule Isaac pen jou niget alhin nin Abraham'in Pathen thupeh bang in achapa chu chep atan pehtai.
5 Abraham was one hundred years old when his son, Isaac, was born to him.
Isaac ahung pen chun, Apa Abraham chu kum jakhat ana lhing tai.
6 Sarah said, “God has made me laugh. Everyone who hears will laugh with me.”
Chuin Sarah in aphong doh in, “Pathen in nuina eipei,” ati.
7 She said, “Who would have said to Abraham that Sarah would nurse children? For I have borne him a son in his old age.”
Chule aman, “Sarah hin chale nao noi hin chep sah inte tin koipen in Abraham kom a ana sei ngam dem? ahin lah keiman atehset nung in chapa khat kahin peh tai,” ati.
8 The child grew and was weaned. Abraham made a great feast on the day that Isaac was weaned.
Isaac chu ahung khanglen diu in an neh masa pen Abraham'in kipanan kikhop na asem e.
9 Sarah saw the son of Hagar the Egyptian, whom she had borne to Abraham, mocking.
Hichun Sarah in jong achapa chu Egypt mi Hagar'in Abraham ahinpeh Ishmael to aki chep lhon chu amudoh tai.
10 Therefore she said to Abraham, “Cast out this servant and her son! For the son of this servant will not be heir with my son, Isaac.”
Hichun amanun Abraham kom ah hitin aseiye, “Hiche sohnu le achapa chu solmang in ajeh chu hiche chapang hin keima chapa toh chanvou anei khom lhon ding aum poi; Isaac toh ki komto thei lou ding ahi.”
11 The thing was very grievous in Abraham’s sight on account of his son.
Hichun Abraham'in nopmo asa lheh jeng in ajeh chu Ishmael jong chu achapa ahiye.
12 God said to Abraham, “Don’t let it be grievous in your sight because of the boy, and because of your servant. In all that Sarah says to you, listen to her voice. For your offspring will be named through Isaac.
Hinlah Pathen in Abraham chu ahoulimpi in, “Nangman chapang chung chang chule na sohnu jeh in ima lungphat mo na nei hih in, Sarah in bol in atiho chu bol in ajeh chu Isaac akonna bou na chilhah te hung kisim ding bou ahi.”
13 I will also make a nation of the son of the servant, because he is your child.”
Hinlah keiman Hagar chapa jong chu nam lentah khat kaso thou thou ding ahi. Ajeh chu amapa jong chu nangma chapa jong ahi thouve.”
14 Abraham rose up early in the morning, and took bread and a container of water, and gave it to Hagar, putting it on her shoulder; and gave her the child, and sent her away. She departed, and wandered in the wilderness of Beersheba.
Hichun Abraham ajing in matah in akithou vin, neh ding bu asutup'in chule twipoh na ding twibom Hagar chu apen aleng kouva aledoh peh tan ahi, hichun amanu le achapa chu asolmang in, chuin Hagar chu suhna ding helouvin Beersheba gamthip noiya avah lelei.
15 The water in the container was spent, and she put the child under one of the shrubs.
Hichun twi ahung bei chun amanu (Hagar) chun naosen chu hampa nang boh lim noi ah akoi tai.
16 She went and sat down opposite him, a good way off, about a bow shot away. For she said, “Don’t let me see the death of the child.” She sat opposite him, and lifted up her voice, and wept.
Hichun amanu (Hagar) apot doh in atou lha tan achang seh in lamsom tobang kikah in “Keiman hiche chapang thi hi kamu nompoi,” atin amanu chu alhi along in akap tai.
17 God heard the voice of the boy. The angel of God called to Hagar out of the sky, and said to her, “What troubles you, Hagar? Don’t be afraid. For God has heard the voice of the boy where he is.
Hinlah Pathen in chapang ka awgin chu ajan chuin Pakai Vantil in vanna kon in Hagar chu ahin kouvin, “Hagar ipi boina nanei ham? Imacha kichatna nei hih in, Pathen in chapang ka awgin chu ajatai aumna muna kon in ati.
18 Get up, lift up the boy, and hold him with your hand. For I will make him a great nation.”
Kipat doh inlang nao khu gaki dop loiyin na khut in kipom chah jon, ijeh inem itile keiman ama khu nam lentah ka hisah ding ahi.”
19 God opened her eyes, and she saw a well of water. She went, filled the container with water, and gave the boy a drink.
Hichun Pathen in Hagar mit chu kho amusah in chua twi tamtah amusah tan, hichun amanun gangtah in twipai chu asu dim in chapang chu adon sah tai.
20 God was with the boy, and he grew. He lived in the wilderness, and as he grew up, he became an archer.
Chule chapang chu Pathen in ahin umpi jing in neocha ahi apat gamthip gamnoi jenga ahung cheng in, thalpi kap ahung them lheh jeng in ahi.
21 He lived in the wilderness of Paran. His mother got a wife for him out of the land of Egypt.
Chule Ishmael chu Paran gamthip noi a ana cheng in, chule anun Egypt gam'a ama ji ding in numei khat aga pui peh in ahi.
22 At that time, Abimelech and Phicol the captain of his army spoke to Abraham, saying, “God is with you in all that you do.
Hiche phat laitah chun Abimelech le asepai jalamkai Phicol chu Abraham vil din ahung'e. “Pathen in nangma hi na umpi jing in, na thilbol na jouse ah na kithopi jinge,” tin ahung seiye.
23 Now, therefore, swear to me here by God that you will not deal falsely with me, nor with my son, nor with my son’s son. But according to the kindness that I have done to you, you shall do to me, and to the land in which you have lived as a foreigner.”
Pathen min'in kitem in, chule nei joulhep louhel ding, ka chate jong ahilou leh ka chilhah ho jong, kei vang nangma adia thilpha bolnom jing, chule tuhin naki hahsel ding, thilpha na bol jing ding hiche gam-sunga maljin gampam nahi laisen,” ati.
24 Abraham said, “I will swear.”
Abraham'in adonbut in “Heng'e kaki tem e,” ati.
25 Abraham complained to Abimelech because of a water well, which Abimelech’s servants had violently taken away.
Hichun Abraham'in Abimelech komma lunglhai louna aphong doh in Abimelech sohten twikul namphu a Abraham sohte ana lah peh'u thu chu ahi.
26 Abimelech said, “I don’t know who has done this thing. You didn’t tell me, and I didn’t hear of it until today.”
“Tuchung hi hiche thu kajah masah pen ahi,” tin Abimelech in a donbut'e. “Keiman hiche chungchang hi koi oimo a, koi ngoh ding ham kahepoi. Ajeh chu phat masan ima thu nana sei kha poi,” ati.
27 Abraham took sheep and cattle, and gave them to Abimelech. Those two made a covenant.
Abraham'in hichun akelngoi ho, kelcha ho, chule bonghon ho Abimelech apen kinop tona anei lhon'e.
28 Abraham set seven ewe lambs of the flock by themselves.
Hichun Abraham'in kelngoi nou sagi ho chu achom a alheng doh'in ahi.
29 Abimelech said to Abraham, “What do these seven ewe lambs, which you have set by themselves, mean?”
Abimelech in Abraham chu adonbut in “Hiche Kelngoi nou sagi ho hi ipi tina ham? amaho hina tum lhen doh in,” ati.
30 He said, “You shall take these seven ewe lambs from my hand, that it may be a witness to me, that I have dug this well.”
Abraham'in adonbut in, “Hiche twikhuh keiman ka laisa ahi, tia ahetoh aneipan peh na dinga hiche kelngoi pi sagi hi keima khut tah a na kisan ding ahi,” ati.
31 Therefore he called that place Beersheba, because they both swore an oath there.
Hijeh chun ama in hiche mun chun Beersheba asah tai. Ajeh chu mihem teni akihet tona mun lhon ahiye.
32 So they made a covenant at Beersheba. Abimelech rose up with Phicol, the captain of his army, and they returned into the land of the Philistines.
Beersheba mun a kihet tona muna aki muto jouvin, Abimelech le Phicol sepai lamkai pachu Philistine mun lama akinung le lhon tan ahi.
33 Abraham planted a tamarisk tree in Beersheba, and there he called on the name of the LORD, the Everlasting God.
Abraham'in Beersheba mun achun chahthing phung aphutdoh in, hiche achun aman Pathen chu tonsot Pathen ahi tin aphong doh e.
34 Abraham lived as a foreigner in the land of the Philistines many days.
Hichun Abraham chu Phillistine muna chun phat sottah achengin ahi.
