Asang Khongca Bible (Eastern Khumi Chin, 2019)
1Now the word of the LORD came unto Jonah the son of Amittai, saying,
1Amittai capa Jonah khaeah, Angraeng ih lok to angzoh,
2Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and cry against it; for their wickedness is come up before me.
2angthawk ah loe, Nineveh vangpui ah caeh ah, nihcae sethaih ka hmaa ah phak boeh pongah, to vangpui misa haih lok to taphong ah.
3But Jonah rose up to flee unto Tarshish from the presence of the LORD , and went down to Joppa; and he found a ship going to Tarshish: so he paid the fare thereof, and went down into it, to go with them unto Tarshish from the presence of the LORD .
3Toe Jonah loe Angraeng hmaa hoiah angthawk moe, Tarshish vangpui ah cawnh ving hanah amsak, to pongah Joppa vangpui bangah a caeh. To ah Joppa vangpui ah caehhaih palongpui maeto a hnuk; Angraeng hmaa hoi loih thai hanah, palongpui angthuenghaih atho to paek moe, Tarshish vangpui ah a caeh.
4¶ But the LORD sent out a great wind into the sea, and there was a mighty tempest in the sea, so that the ship was like to be broken.
4Toe Angraeng mah tuipui ah thacak parai takhi to patoeh, to naah tuipui ah takhi sae to songh, to pongah palong to amro duih.
5Then the mariners were afraid, and cried every man unto his god, and cast forth the wares that were in the ship into the sea, to lighten it of them. But Jonah was gone down into the sides of the ship; and he lay, and was fast asleep.
5To naah palongpui angthueng kaminawk loe zit o moe, kami boih mah angmacae ih sithaw to palawk o, palongpui anghoep thai hanah, hmuenmaenawk to tuipui thungah a vah o. Toe Jonah loe palongpui tlim ah caeh tathuk, to ah angsong moe, a iih.
6So the shipmaster came to him, and said unto him, What meanest thou, O sleeper? arise, call upon thy God, if so be that God will think upon us, that we perish not.
6To pongah palongpui mongh kalen koek anih khaeah caeh moe, Nang loe kawbang maw na iih thaih? Aicae anghmat o han ai ah, angthawk ah loe, na Sithaw to palawk ah; anih mah aicae han kho na poek pae khoe doeh om tih, tiah a naa.
7And they said every one to his fellow, Come, and let us cast lots, that we may know for whose cause this evil is upon us. So they cast lots, and the lot fell upon Jonah.
7To naah a thungah kaom kaminawk mah, Angzo oh, mi pongah maw hae baktih raihaih hae aicae nui ah phak, tiah panoek thai hanah taham khethaih to sah o si, tiah maeto hoi maeto thuih o. Nihcae mah taham khethaih to sak o naah, Jonah nuiah krak.
8Then said they unto him, Tell us, we pray thee, for whose cause this evil is upon us; What is thine occupation? and whence comest thou? what is thy country? and of what people art thou?
8To pacoengah nihcae mah anih khaeah, Aicae nuiah kaom raihaih loe mi pongah maw oh? Na thui ah, tih tok maw na sak? Naa bang hoiah maw nang zoh? Naa bang ih prae ah maw na oh? Naa bang ih kami maw? tiah lok a dueng o.
9And he said unto them, I am an Hebrew; and I fear the LORD , the God of heaven, which hath made the sea and the dry land .
9Anih mah nihcae khaeah, Kai loe Hebru kami ah ka oh, tuipui hoi saoeng boih Sahkung, Angraeng, van Sithaw to ka zit, tiah a naa.
10Then were the men exceedingly afraid, and said unto him, Why hast thou done this? For the men knew that he fled from the presence of the LORD , because he had told them.
10To lok to palongpui angthueng kaminawk mah thaih o naah, zit o aep, Jonah mah nihcae khaeah thuih pae ih lok baktih toengah, to kaminawk mah anih loe Angraeng khae hoi kacawn ving kami ni, tiah panoek o naah, anih khaeah, Tipongah hae tiah na oh loe? tiah a naa o.
11¶ Then said they unto him, What shall we do unto thee, that the sea may be calm unto us? for the sea wrought, and was tempestuous.
11Tuipui ih tuiphu loe kanung aep ah angthawk pongah, nihcae mah Jonah khaeah, kangthawk tuipui ih tuiphu hae dipsak thai hanah, nang hae kawbang maw kang sak o han? tiah a naa o.
12And he said unto them, Take me up, and cast me forth into the sea; so shall the sea be calm unto you: for I know that for my sake this great tempest is upon you.
12Jonah mah nihcae khaeah, Kai hae na la oh loe, tuipui thungah na va o halat ah, to tiah nahaeloe tuiphu to dip tih. Kai pongah ni nangcae nuiah takhi sae songh, tiah ka panoek, tiah a naa.
13Nevertheless the men rowed hard to bring it to the land; but they could not: for the sea wrought, and was tempestuous against them.
13To tiah a thuih pae cadoeh palongpui mongh kaminawk loe tuitaeng bangah mongh hanah tha pathok o vop, toe tuiphu to angthawk moe, takhi sae kanung aep ah song pongah, caeh o thai ai.
14Wherefore they cried unto the LORD , and said, We beseech thee, O LORD , we beseech thee, let us not perish for this man’s life, and lay not upon us innocent blood: for thou, O LORD , hast done as it pleased thee.
14To naah nihcae loe Angraeng khaeah hang o, Aw Angraeng, tahmenhaih kang hnik o, tahmenhaih kang hnik o, hae kami ih hinghaih to lak hanah, kaicae hae duehsak hmah, zaehaih panoek ai kami maeto ih athii pongah kaicae hae zaehaih na net hmah, Aw Angraeng, na koeh ih baktih toengah ni, hae hmuen hae na sak boeh, tiah lawkthuih o.
15So they took up Jonah, and cast him forth into the sea: and the sea ceased from her raging.
15To pongah Jonah to lak o moe, tuipui thungah a vah o: to naah kangthawk tuipui ih tuiphu to dip.
16Then the men feared the LORD exceedingly, and offered a sacrifice unto the LORD , and made vows.
16To pacoengah loe to ah kaom kaminawk mah Angraeng to paroeai zit o, Angraeng khaeah hmuen tathlanghaih a sak o moe, lokkamhaih to a sak o.
17¶ Now the LORD had prepared a great fish to swallow up Jonah. And Jonah was in the belly of the fish three days and three nights.
17Angraeng mah Jonah paaeh hanah tangapui to patoeh. Jonah loe tanga zok thungah ni thumto hoi qum thumto oh.
