Genesis 47
1 Then Joseph went in and told Pharaoh, and said, “My father and my brothers, with their flocks, their herds, and all that they own, have come out of the land of Canaan; and behold, they are in the land of Goshen.”
Hiti chun Joseph ache lut in Pharaoh henga thu agalhut in, ‘‘Kapa le ka sopite akelngoi ho jouse le aganchau toh chule aneijouseu toh kilhon in Canaan gam'a kon in ahung lhung tauve; tuhin Goshem gamsunga aum uve,” aga ti.
2 From amongst his brothers he took five men, and presented them to Pharaoh.
Chuin Joseph in asopi ho lah a mi nga alhengdoh in Pharaoh henga phondohna aneiyin ahi.
3 Pharaoh said to his brothers, “What is your occupation?” They said to Pharaoh, “Your servants are shepherds, both we, and our fathers.”
Chuin Pharaoh in amaho chu thu adong tan, “Nangma ho ipi natong nahiu ham?” amahon adonbut un, “Keima ho nasohte ho hi kapu kapate khanga patna kelngoi ching ka hiuve atiuvin ahi.”
4 They also said to Pharaoh, “We have come to live as foreigners in the land, for there is no pasture for your servants’ flocks. For the famine is severe in the land of Canaan. Now therefore, please let your servants dwell in the land of Goshen.”
Amahon Pharaoh henga ahoulim un, hiche gam'a cheng dinga hi keiho ka hung taovu ahe, ajeh chu nasoh teho hi kelngoi vah ka hiuvin, hamdong jong Canaan lhang lama aum tapoi; Hijeh chun lungset tah in Goshem lhang langa nei chen sah un kel hah sung in atiuvin ahi.
5 Pharaoh spoke to Joseph, saying, “Your father and your brothers have come to you.
Hichun Pharaoh in Joseph jah a aseiye, “Napa ahin, na sopi ho nangma koma din ahung tauve.
6 The land of Egypt is before you. Make your father and your brothers dwell in the best of the land. Let them dwell in the land of Goshen. If you know any able men amongst them, then put them in charge of my livestock.”
Nangman lhen peh tan Egypt gamsung pumpia amaho achen thei na diuvin, chule Egypt gamsung a apha pen chu pen ati; Hichun Goshem lhang lam chu pen amaho din ati. Chule amaho lah a miching thepna nei aumle keima gancha ho vetup din nei koi peh in,” ati.
7 Joseph brought in Jacob, his father, and set him before Pharaoh; and Jacob blessed Pharaoh.
Hichun Joseph in apa Jacob chu Pharaoh koma ahin puijin akihet tohsah in chujouvin Jacob in Pharaoh chu phatthei aboh in ahi.
8 Pharaoh said to Jacob, “How old are you?”
Chuin Pharaoh in “Kum ijat na hitam tin Jacob chu adong in ahi.”
9 Jacob said to Pharaoh, “The years of my pilgrimage are one hundred and thirty years. The days of the years of my life have been few and evil. They have not attained to the days of the years of the life of my fathers in the days of their pilgrimage.”
Jacob in adonbut in, “Keima hi leiset chunga lam ka hin jotna patna hi kum ja khat le som thum tobang ka hitai; Amavang ka hinkho hi kapate ho kapute ho sang in achom jo na laiye,” ati.
10 Jacob blessed Pharaoh, and went out from the presence of Pharaoh.
Hichun Jacob in Pharaoh avel in adalhah masang in avel in phatthei aboh kit in ahi.
11 Joseph placed his father and his brothers, and gave them a possession in the land of Egypt, in the best of the land, in the land of Rameses, as Pharaoh had commanded.
Joseph in apa Jacob ahin asopiho abonchauvin Egypt gamsunga achensah tan, chule nei le gou jong apen gam jong apha pen Ramases lhangjol lam chu Pharaoh thupeh dungjui in ape tan ahi.
12 Joseph provided his father, his brothers, and all of his father’s household with bread, according to the sizes of their families.
Chuin Joseph in apa ahin, asopite ahin abonchauvin amahon angaichat dungjui in ape sohkei jin, chule chapang neocha cha ho gei ding in jong ape jeng tan ahi.
13 There was no bread in all the land; for the famine was very severe, so that the land of Egypt and the land of Canaan fainted by reason of the famine.
Phat chomkhat jouvin neh-leh-chah ahah lheh jeng tan, anchang kikoi jouse jong ane chai gam tauve, Egypt gamsung le Canaan gamsunga mipite jouse neh le chah hahsat jeh in mipi thi ding in aum gam tan ahi.
14 Joseph gathered up all the money that was found in the land of Egypt, and in the land of Canaan, for the grain which they bought: and Joseph brought the money into Pharaoh’s house.
Joseph in sum le pai akhol doh jouse chu Egypt gamsung ahin Canaan gamsunga anchang achoh nau sum jouse chu Pharaoh gou kholna muna ahin polut tai.
15 When the money was all spent in the land of Egypt, and in the land of Canaan, all the Egyptians came to Joseph, and said, “Give us bread, for why should we die in your presence? For our money fails.”
Mipite jouse Egypt akon ahin, Canaan a kon ahin, sum le pai jouse alhahsam phat in Joseph koma ahung taovun ahi, Amaho akap'un “Sum le pai Sana le dangka ho jouse akichai tai; an neh ding neipeh lou ule nangma mitmua thiding ka hitauve atiuvin ahi.”
16 Joseph said, “Give me your livestock; and I will give you food for your livestock, if your money is gone.”
Hichun Joseph in adonbut in, “Na dangka hou abei tah le nagancha hou keima henga hinkai jun, keiman nangho gancha hotoh kitoh ding an neh ding kalhet peh ding na hiuve ati.
17 They brought their livestock to Joseph, and Joseph gave them bread in exchange for the horses, and for the flocks, and for the herds, and for the donkeys: and he fed them with bread in exchange for all their livestock for that year.
Hichun amahon an nehtoh lheh ding in agancha hou jouse Joseph koma ahin kaiyun, chule sakol hon ho ahin, kelngoi hon hole keltah hon ho ahin chule abong hon ho le sangan ho jouse jong Joseph koma alheh cheh un hichun aman kum khat an neh ding apeh be kit tan ahi.
18 When that year was ended, they came to him the second year, and said to him, “We will not hide from my lord how our money is all spent, and the herds of livestock are my lord’s. There is nothing left in the sight of my lord, but our bodies, and our lands.
Amavang hiche kum chu akichai kit tan, kumthat ahung lhung kittan hichun amahon a seikit tauve, “Nangma akon in imacha ka im thei tapouve, Ajeh chu ka dangka hou se la aki chaitan, ka gancha hou ka bong hou la abei tan, tua hi keima hon imacha peh ding ka neita pouve, tua hi ka tahsao le ka leiset bou'u aum tai.
19 Why should we die before your eyes, both we and our land? Buy us and our land for bread, and we and our land will be servants to Pharaoh. Give us seed, that we may live, and not die, and that the land won’t be desolate.”
Nangma mitmua iti ka moh thi thei diu ham keima ho tahsa ahin ka leiset'u hi an neh ding toh lheh jeng tau vinge atiuve; ka leiset u ahin ka tahsau ahin Pharaoh soh in umtau ving kate, hijeh chun anchang neh ding neipe uvin, kathi lou na diuvin, chule leiset gam chu mohseh a umlou a asetna lou ding in atiuve.
20 So Joseph bought all the land of Egypt for Pharaoh, for every man of the Egyptians sold his field, because the famine was severe on them, and the land became Pharaoh’s.
Hichun Joseph in Egypt gamsunga leiset jouse Pharaoh din Egypt mite koma kon in achodoh soh tan ahi.
21 As for the people, he moved them to the cities from one end of the border of Egypt even to the other end of it.
Mipi ho vang chu ahile khopi akon in gam ong thinglhang lama asol in Egypt gamsunga mun khat a patin mun chom a asol in ahi.
22 Only he didn’t buy the land of the priests, for the priests had a portion from Pharaoh, and ate their portion which Pharaoh gave them. That is why they didn’t sell their land.
Gam leiset Joseph in ana choh lou chu ahile thempu ho gam ahi. Ajeh chu hitobang thempu ho chu ana kipe doh aum in, amaho chun Pharaoh a kona an neh ana kisan'u ahi jeh ahi, chule agam leiset'u jong kichol ngai lou ahi.
23 Then Joseph said to the people, “Behold, I have bought you and your land today for Pharaoh. Behold, here is seed for you, and you shall sow the land.
Hichun Joseph in mipite lah a ahoulim in, “Veuvin tunia keiman nangho chule nagam leiset'u Pharaoh adia ka chohdoh ahitai keiman nangho muchi kapeh ding nanghon na phailei uva chang na tu theiyu ahitai.
24 It will happen at the harvests, that you shall give a fifth to Pharaoh, and four parts will be your own, for seed of the field, for your food, for them of your households, and for food for your little ones.”
Chule nangman chang na at teng hop nga lah a hop khat Pharaoh adia napeh ding hopli chu nangma muchi adia na kikoi diu, chule nangma ho insung mite an neh a pang ding aneocha cha ho geija kapeh na hiuve.
25 They said, “You have saved our lives! Let us find favour in the sight of my lord, and we will be Pharaoh’s servants.”
Amahon aphong doh un, “Keima ho hinkho hi nangman neihuh doh peh'u ahi atiuve, chule nangma phatsah bang hi jeng hen; chule lungset tah in ka pakai pa Pharaoh soh in pangmai jeng tau vinge atiuvin ahi.”
26 Joseph made it a statute concerning the land of Egypt to this day, that Pharaoh should have the fifth. Only the land of the priests alone didn’t become Pharaoh’s.
Chule Joseph in dan asem in Egypt gam'a tuni geihin aki mang na laiye, hichu ahile Pharaoh in hop nga lah a hopkhat ane jing na laiyin, thempu ho a tilou chu gam leiset abona Pharaoh a ahi tai.
27 Israel lived in the land of Egypt, in the land of Goshen; and they got themselves possessions therein, and were fruitful, and multiplied exceedingly.
Hichun phat chomkhat jouvin, Israel mipite chun Egypt gamsunga Goshem lhanglam chu alodim tauvin, hichea pat chun amahon nei le gou akilamdoh un, abol jouse'u jong nasatah in apung tul tul jengun ahi.
28 Jacob lived in the land of Egypt seventeen years. So the days of Jacob, the years of his life, were one hundred and forty-seven years.
Hichun Jacob chu Egypt ahung lhun jouvin kum som le kum sagi ahinbe in Jacob hin nikho abon bon'a kum jakhat le kum som li le kum sagi alhing in ahi.
29 The time came near that Israel must die, and he called his son Joseph, and said to him, “If now I have found favour in your sight, please put your hand under my thigh, and deal kindly and truly with me. Please don’t bury me in Egypt,
Israel chu athi tei ding nikho ahung nai tul tul phat in aman jong achapa Joseph akouvin ajah a “Na mit mua nangma ka lung lhaisah jouva ahile gunchu tah le kitah tah a nei bolna ding in kataipi gui noi tuhin lang Egypt gam'a neihin vuilou hel na dingin kitep in;
30 but when I sleep with my fathers, you shall carry me out of Egypt, and bury me in their burying place.” Joseph said, “I will do as you have said.”
Keima ka hinkho ahung beiteng lungset tah in ka tahsa hi Egypt akon in eipo doh inlang kapu kapate kivui na muna neivui in, hichun Joseph jong aki hahsel in, “Keiman nangma seibang bang in hinbol peh nang kate,” ati.
31 Israel said, “Swear to me,” and he swore to him. Then Israel bowed himself on the bed’s head.
Hichun Jacob in avel in aseikti in, “Nangma kitep in ati, hichun Joseph akihahsel tan, chuin Jacob chu alupna a akhup lang in alum tai.”
