1Then the LORD said to Moses, “Leave this place, you and the people you brought up out of the land of Egypt, and go to the land that I promised to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob when I said, ‘I will give it to your descendants.’
1To pacoengah Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah, Hae ahmuen hae caehtaak ah loe, Abraham, Issak hoi Jakob khaeah, Na caanawk khaeah ka paek han, tiah lokkam ih, prae thungah Izip prae thung hoi na zaehhoih ih kaminawk hoi nawnto caeh oh;
2And I will send an angel before you, and I will drive out the Canaanites, Amorites, Hittites, Perizzites, Hivites, and Jebusites.
2kai ih van kami to na hmaa ah ka patoeh han, anih mah Kannaan, Amor, Hit, Periz, Hiv hoi Jebus kaminawk to haek boih tih.
3Go up to a land flowing with milk and honey. But I will not go with you, because you are a stiff-necked people; otherwise, I might destroy you on the way.”
3Khoitui hoi tahnutui longhaih prae ah caeh oh; toe kai loe nangcae salakah ka caeh mak ai; palungthah kami ah na oh o pongah, loklam ah kam rosak boih moeng tih, tiah a naa.
4When the people heard these bad tidings, they went into mourning, and no one put on any of his jewelry.
4Kaminawk mah to baktih tamthang kasae to thaih o naah, palungset o moe, mi doeh amthoephaih khukbuen to angkhuk o ai.
5For the LORD had said to Moses, “Tell the Israelites, ‘You are a stiff-necked people. If I should go with you for a single moment, I would destroy you. Now take off your jewelry, and I will decide what to do with you.’”
5Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah, Israel kaminawk khaeah hae tiah thui paeh; nangcae loe palungthah kami ah na oh o; nangcae hae nawnetta thung kang caeh haih nahaeloe, kam rosak boih moeng tih; nangcae to kawbang maw kang sak han, tiah ka panoek hanah, nam thoep o haih hmuennawk to angkhring oh, tiah a thuih, tiah a naa.
6So the Israelites stripped themselves of their jewelry from Mount Horeb onward.
6To pongah Israel kaminawk mah Horeb mae ah amthoephaih hmuennawk to angkhring o boih.
7Now Moses used to take the tent and pitch it at a distance outside the camp. He called it the Tent of Meeting, and anyone inquiring of the LORD would go to the Tent of Meeting outside the camp.
7Mosi mah ataihaih ahmuen tasa bang, kangthla kue ahmuen ah, kahni im to sak moe, kaminawk amkhuenghaih kahni im, tiah a kawk. Angraeng pakrong han koeh kami boih loe, ataihaih ahmuen tasa bangah sak ih kaminawk amkhuenghaih kahni im ah caeh o nasoe.
8Then, whenever Moses went out to the tent, all the people would stand at the entrances to their own tents and watch Moses until he entered the tent.
8Mosi kahni im ah caeh naah, kaminawk boih angthawk o moe, angmacae kahni im thok taengah angdoet o; Mosi kahni imthung ah akun ai karoek to a khet o.
9As Moses entered the tent, the pillar of cloud would come down and remain at the entrance, and the LORD would speak with Moses.
9Mosi kahni imthung ah akun naah, tamai tung loe kahni im akunhaih thok taengah krak tathuk; to naah Mosi hoi Angraeng to lok apaeh hoi.
10When all the people saw the pillar of cloud standing at the entrance to the tent, they would stand up and worship, each one at the entrance to his own tent.
10Kaminawk boih mah, kahni imthung akunhaih thok taengah angdoe tamai tung to hnuk o naah, kaminawk boih angmacae ih kahni im thok taengah angdoet o moe, a bok o.
11Thus the LORD would speak to Moses face to face, as a man speaks to his friend. Then Moses would return to the camp, but his young assistant Joshua son of Nun would not leave the tent.
11Kami mah angmah ih ampui hoi lok apaeh baktih toengah, Angraeng hoi Mosi doeh mikhmai kangtong ah lok apaeh hoi; to pacoengah Mosi loe a ohhaih ahmuen ah amlaem let; toe anih bomkung, thendoeng, Nun capa Joshua loe kahni im to caehtaak ai.
12Then Moses said to the LORD, “Look, You have been telling me, ‘Lead this people up,’ but You have not let me know whom You will send with me. Yet You have said, ‘I know you by name, and you have found favor in My sight.’
12Mosi mah Angraeng khaeah, Khenah, Nang mah ih hae kaminawk to zaehhoih hanah nang thuih; toe kai abomh han kaminawk to nang panoeksak ai; na hmin to ka panoek moe, nang loe ka mikhnuk naakrak ah na oh, tiah nang naa.
13Now if indeed I have found favor in Your sight, please let me know Your ways, that I may know You and find favor in Your sight. Remember that this nation is Your people.”
13To pongah ka nuiah palung nang hoe nahaeloe, kai nang tahmen, tito ka panoek thai hanah, na loklam to na patuek ah; hae acaengnawk loe nang ih kami ni, tiah panoek poe ah, tiah a hnik.
14And the LORD answered, “My Presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.”
14Angraeng mah kang caeh o haih poe moe, anghakhaih kang paek o han, tiah a naa.
15“If Your Presence does not go with us,” Moses replied, “do not lead us up from here.
15To naah Mosi mah anih khaeah, Kai nang caeh haih ai nahaeloe, kaicae hae ahmuen hoiah na patoeh hmah.
16For how then can it be known that Your people and I have found favor in Your sight, unless You go with us? How else will we be distinguished from all the other people on the face of the earth?”
16Kai hoi nang ih kaminawk loe, na hmaa ah mikcuk naakrak ah ni kho a sak o, tito kawbang maw panoek thai tih? Kaicae hoi nawnto na caeh naah na ai maw amtueng tih? To tiah ni kai hoi nang ih kaminawk loe long nuiah kaom kaminawk boih thung hoiah kalah ta kami ah om o tih, tiah a naa.
17So the LORD said to Moses, “I will do this very thing you have asked, for you have found favor in My sight, and I know you by name.”
17To naah Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah, Na thuih ih lok baktih toengah ka sak han; nang loe ka mikcuk naakrak ah na oh; nang loe nangmah ih ahmin hoiah ni kang panoek boeh, tiah a naa.
18Then Moses said, “Please show me Your glory.”
18Mosi mah anih khaeah, Vaihi na lensawkhaih amtuengsak ah, tiah a naa.
19“I will cause all My goodness to pass before you,” the LORD replied, “and I will proclaim My name—the LORD—in your presence. I will have mercy on whom I have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I have compassion.”
19Angraeng mah, Na hmaa ah Kaih ih hoihaihnawk boih to ka caehsak moe, Angraeng ih ahmin to na hmaa ah ka taphong han; tahmenhaih ka tawnh ih kaminawk nuiah tahmenhaih ka tawnh moe, tahmenhaih kam tuengsak ih kaminawk nuiah tahmenhaih to kam tuengsak han.
20But He added, “You cannot see My face, for no one can see Me and live.”
20Toe ka mikhmai loe na hnu mak ai; ka mikhmai hnu kami loe, hing mak ai, tiah a naa.
21The LORD continued, “There is a place near Me where you are to stand upon a rock,
21To pacoengah Angraeng mah, Khenah, ka taengah ahmuen maeto oh; nang loe lungsong nuiah angdoe tih;
22and when My glory passes by, I will put you in a cleft of the rock and cover you with My hand until I have passed by.
22ka lensawkhaih amtueng naah, nang loe kakoi lungsong thungah kang suek moe, Ka laem ai karoek to, ka ban hoiah kang tamuep han.
23Then I will take My hand away, and you will see My back; but My face must not be seen.”
23Ka ban to ka zuh naah loe, ka hnukbang to na hnu tih; toe ka mikhmai loe na hnu mak ai, tiah a naa.
