JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Asang Khongca Bible (Eastern Khumi Chin, 2019)
1And the LORD spoke unto Moses: 'Depart, go up hence, thou and the people that thou hast brought up out of the land of Egypt, unto the land of which I swore unto Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, saying: Unto thy seed will I give it —
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 thee; and I will drive out the Canaanite, the Amorite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite —
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.
3unto a land flowing with milk and honey; for I will not go up in the midst of thee; for thou art a stiffnecked people; lest I consume thee in 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.
4And when the people heard these evil tidings, they mourned; and no man did put on him his ornaments.
4Kaminawk mah to baktih tamthang kasae to thaih o naah, palungset o moe, mi doeh amthoephaih khukbuen to angkhuk o ai.
5And the LORD said unto Moses: 'Say unto the children of Israel: Ye are a stiffnecked people; if I go up into the midst of thee for one moment, I shall consume thee; therefore now put off thy ornaments from thee, that I may know what to do unto thee.'
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.
6And the children of Israel stripped themselves of their ornaments 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 to pitch it without the camp, afar off from the camp; and he called it The tent of meeting. And it came to pass, that every one that sought the LORD went out unto the tent of meeting, which was without 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.
8And it came to pass, when Moses went out unto the Tent, that all the people rose up, and stood, every man at his tent door, and looked after Moses, until he was gone into 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.
9And it came to pass, when Moses entered into the Tent, the pillar of cloud descended, and stood at the door of the Tent; and the LORD spoke 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.
10And when all the people saw the pillar of cloud stand at the door of the Tent, all the people rose up and worshipped, every man at his tent door.
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.
11And the LORD spoke unto Moses face to face, as a man speaketh unto his friend. And he would return into the camp; but his minister Joshua, the son of Nun, a young man, departed not out of 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.
12And Moses said unto the LORD: 'See, Thou sayest unto me: Bring up this people; and Thou hast not let me know whom Thou wilt send with me. Yet Thou hast said: I know thee by name, and thou hast also found grace 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 therefore, I pray Thee, if I have found grace in Thy sight, show me now Thy ways, that I may know Thee, to the end that I may find grace in Thy sight; and consider that this nation is Thy 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 He said: 'My presence shall go with thee, and I will give thee rest.'
14Angraeng mah kang caeh o haih poe moe, anghakhaih kang paek o han, tiah a naa.
15And he said unto Him: 'If Thy presence go not with me, carry us not up hence.
15To naah Mosi mah anih khaeah, Kai nang caeh haih ai nahaeloe, kaicae hae ahmuen hoiah na patoeh hmah.
16For wherein now shall it be known that I have found grace in Thy sight, I and Thy people? is it not in that Thou goest with us, so that we are distinguished, I and Thy people, from all the people that are upon 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.
17And the LORD said unto Moses: 'I will do this thing also that thou hast spoken, for thou hast found grace in My sight, and I know thee 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.
18And he said: 'Show me, I pray Thee, Thy glory.'
18Mosi mah anih khaeah, Vaihi na lensawkhaih amtuengsak ah, tiah a naa.
19And He said: 'I will make all My goodness pass before thee, and will proclaim the name of the LORD before thee; and I will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and will show mercy on whom I will show mercy.'
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.
20And He said: 'Thou canst not see My face, for man shall not see Me and live.'
20Toe ka mikhmai loe na hnu mak ai; ka mikhmai hnu kami loe, hing mak ai, tiah a naa.
21And the LORD said: 'Behold, there is a place by Me, and thou shalt stand upon the rock.
21To pacoengah Angraeng mah, Khenah, ka taengah ahmuen maeto oh; nang loe lungsong nuiah angdoe tih;
22And it shall come to pass, while My glory passeth by, that I will put thee in a cleft of the rock, and will cover thee 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.
23And I will take away My hand, and thou shalt see My back; but My face shall 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.
