Baibal Olcim (Matupi Chin)
1A man of the house of Levi went and took a daughter of Levi as his wife.
1Te vaengah Levi imkhui lamkah tongpa pakhat te cet tih Levi nu te a loh.
2The woman conceived and bore a son. When she saw that he was a fine child, she hid him three months.
2A yuu te vawn tih capa a cun hatah anih tea then la a sawt tih hla thum a thuh.
3When she could no longer hide him, she took a papyrus basket for him, and coated it with tar and with pitch. She put the child in it, and laid it in the reeds by the river’s bank.
3Anih te koep thuh ham a coeng pawt vaengah tah anih ham talik lawng a loh pah tih lungpaat kunhnai neh a hluk. Te phoeiah a khuiah camoe te a khueh tih sokko tuikaeng kah carhaek ding ah a khueh.
4His sister stood far off, to see what would be done to him.
4Anih taengah metla a om khaw ming hamla a ngannu loh a hla lamkah a pai thil.
5Pharaoh’s daughter came down to bathe at the river. Her maidens walked along by the riverside. She saw the basket among the reeds, and sent her servant to get it.
5Te vaengah Pharaoh canu te tui hlu la sokko ah cet tih a hula puei neh sokko lihmoi ah pongpa uh. Tedae carhaek ding kah lawng te a hmuh vaengah a salnu te a tueih tih a loh pah.
6She opened it, and saw the child, and behold, the baby cried. She had compassion on him, and said, “This is one of the Hebrews’ children.”
6A ong vaengah camoe te a hmuh tih camoe khaw tarha ana rhap. Te dongah anih ham a thinphat tih, “Hebrew camoe la he,” a ti.
7Then his sister said to Pharaoh’s daughter, “Should I go and call a nurse for you from the Hebrew women, that she may nurse the child for you?”
7Te vaengah a ngannu loh Pharaoh canu te, “Ka cet vetih nang ham Hebrew nu te, cakhoem la ka khue eh. Te daengah ni nang ham camoe hang khoem eh?,” a ti nah.
8Pharaoh’s daughter said to her, “Go.” The young woman went and called the child’s mother.
8Anih te Pharaoh canu loh, “Cet saw,” a ti nah dongah hula te cet tih camoe manu te a khue pah.
9Pharaoh’s daughter said to her, “Take this child away, and nurse him for me, and I will give you your wages.” The woman took the child, and nursed him.
9Pharaoh canu loh anih te, “Camoe he caeh puei lamtah kai ham han cun, kamah loh na thapang kam paek bitni,” a ti nah. Te dongah manu loh camoe te a khuen tih a cun.
10The child grew, and she brought him to Pharaoh’s daughter, and he became her son. She named him Moses, and said, “Because I drew him out of the water.”
10Camoe te a pantai phoeiah Pharaoh canu taengla a khuen. Te vaengah a capa la om tih a ming te Moses a sui tih, “Anih he tui dong lamlong ni ka doek,” a ti.
11In those days, when Moses had grown up, he went out to his brothers and saw their burdens. He saw an Egyptian striking a Hebrew, one of his brothers.
11A khohnin loh a pha tih Moses khaw pantai coeng. Te dongah a manuca rhoek taengla pawk tih amih kah bitloh te a hmuh. Te vaengah a manuca Hebrew hlang mai Egypt hlang loh a ngawn pah te a hmuh.
12He looked this way and that way, and when he saw that there was no one, he killed the Egyptian, and hid him in the sand.
12Tedae heben hebang la a mael akhaw hlang te hmu pawh. Te dongah Egypt te a ngawn tih laivin khuiah a up.
13He went out the second day, and behold, two men of the Hebrews were fighting with each other. He said to him who did the wrong, “Why do you strike your fellow?”
13A hnin bae dongkah a mop vaengah tah Hebrew hlang rhoi te tarha ana hnuei uh rhoi. Te dongah aka halang te, “Balae tih na hui na ngawn?” a ti nah.
14He said, “Who made you a prince and a judge over us? Do you plan to kill me, as you killed the Egyptian?” Moses was afraid, and said, “Surely this thing is known.”
14Te vaengah, “Hlang khaw, Kaimih sokah mangpa neh laitloek la ulong nang ng'khueh, Egypt na ngawn bangla kai ngawn ham na cai nama?” a ti nah. Te dongah Moses loh a rhih coeng tih, “Dumlai khaw phoe taktak coeng,” a ti.
15Now when Pharaoh heard this thing, he sought to kill Moses. But Moses fled from the face of Pharaoh, and lived in the land of Midian, and he sat down by a well.
15Te ol te Pharaoh loh a yaak vaengah Moses te ngawn ham a mae. Tedae Moses tah Pharaoh mikhmuh lamloh yong tih Midian khohmuen ah kho a sak. Te vaengah tuito ah ngol hatah,
16Now the priest of Midian had seven daughters. They came and drew water, and filled the troughs to water their father’s flock.
16Midian khosoih kah a canu parhih te ha pawk uh tih tui a dueh uh. Te phoeiah a napa kah boiva te tul ham tuisoi dongah a loei uh.
17The shepherds came and drove them away; but Moses stood up and helped them, and watered their flock.
17Te vaengah boiva aka dawn rhoek te ha pawk uh tih huta rhoek te a haek uh. Tedae Moses te thoo tih huta rhoek a rhun tih a boiva te tui a tul pah.
18When they came to Reuel, their father, he said, “How is it that you have returned so early today?”
18A napa Reuel taengla a pawk uh vaengah, “Tihnin ah tah balae tih yue na pawk uh ,” a ti nah.
19They said, “An Egyptian delivered us out of the hand of the shepherds, and moreover he drew water for us, and watered the flock.”
19Te vaengah, “Egypt hlang loh kaimih he boiva aka dawn rhoek kut lamloh n'huul. Te phoeiah tui pataeng kaimih ham han dueh han dueh tih boiva te a tul,” a ti nauh.
20He said to his daughters, “Where is he? Why is it that you have left the man? Call him, that he may eat bread.”
20Te dongah a ca rhoek te, “Melae anih? Balae tih hlang te na hnoo uh? Anih te khue uh lamtah buh ca dae saeh,” a ti nah.
21Moses was content to dwell with the man. He gave Moses Zipporah, his daughter.
21Hlang neh khosak ham khaw Moses loh a ueh van coeng dongah a canu Zipporah te Moses taengah a paek.
22She bore a son, and he named him Gershom, for he said, “I have lived as a foreigner in a foreign land.”
22Te vaengah capa a cun pah hatah kholong kho ah yinlai la ka om a ti tih a ming te Gershom a sui.
23In the course of those many days, the king of Egypt died, and the children of Israel sighed because of the bondage, and they cried, and their cry came up to God because of the bondage.
23A tue muep a khum phoeiah tah Egypt manghai khaw duek. Te vaengah Israel ca rhoek te thohtatnah khui lamloh huei uh tih pang uh. Thohtatnah lamloh a pang uh te Pathen taengla cet.
24God heard their groaning, and God remembered his covenant with Abraham, with Isaac, and with Jacob.
24Tedae Pathen loh amih kah nguekcoinah te a yaak tih Abraham taengkah, Isaak taengkah, Jakob taengkah a paipi te Pathen loh a poek.
25God saw the children of Israel, and God understood.
25Te dongah Pathen loh Israel ca rhoek te a hmuh tih amih te Pathen loh a ming.
