Genesis 1
1 In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.
Pathen in Semtilin van le leiset asem tai.
2 The earth was formless and empty. Darkness was on the surface of the deep and God’s Spirit was hovering over the surface of the waters.
Leiset chu agong bei le ahomkeu ahin, muthim chun twipi thuhtah chu akhukhum ahin, Hiche twipi chung'a chu Pathen lhagao chu ana lhale ahi.
3 God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light.
Pathen in; “Vah hung umhen,” atin, Vah chu aum tai.
4 God saw the light, and saw that it was good. God divided the light from the darkness.
Pathen in vah chu aven pha asah e. Chule Pathen in vah chu muthim akon in asep khen tai.
5 God called the light “day”, and the darkness he called “night”. There was evening and there was morning, the first day.
Pathen'in vah chu sun asah in muthim chu jan asah tai. Hiche apat chun nilhah le jingkah ahung umdohtan hichu nikho masa pen ahung hitai.
6 God said, “Let there be an expanse in the middle of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters.”
Hichun Pathenin aseiyin, “Twipi sukhen dingin, vanthamjol hung kidal hen lang Van, twipi le leiset twipi chu alang alang ah sukhen hen,” atin.
7 God made the expanse, and divided the waters which were under the expanse from the waters which were above the expanse; and it was so.
Hiti chun asei bang in aum in, van twipi le leiset twipi chu alang alang ah asukhen tai.”
8 God called the expanse “sky”. There was evening and there was morning, a second day.
Pathen in onghom chu vanthamjol asah in, hichun nilhah le jingkah achedoh kitin ahileh nikho nina ahi tai.
9 God said, “Let the waters under the sky be gathered together to one place, and let the dry land appear;” and it was so.
Chule Pathen in aseiye, “Vantham jol'a twi umjouse chu mun khat'a kikhol khom hen lang chule tolgo lai um doh hen,” ati. Asei bang chun aum jeng tai.
10 God called the dry land “earth”, and the gathering together of the waters he called “seas”. God saw that it was good.
Pathen in tolgo lai chu leiset asah in chule twi jouse kikhol na mun chu twikhanglen asah e. Pathen in aven pha asa lheh jeng in ahi.
11 God said, “Let the earth yield grass, herbs yielding seeds, and fruit trees bearing fruit after their kind, with their seeds in it, on the earth;” and it was so.
Chuin Pathen'in aseiye, “Leiset in hamphung ho, amu nei hamphung, agathei hamhing chi chom chom leh thingphung aga amunei ho, hiche ho chun ama ama chi dungjui cheh ahin sepdoh kit diu ahi,” ati. Hiti chun ahung kehdoh tauve.
12 The earth yielded grass, herbs yielding seed after their kind, and trees bearing fruit, with their seeds in it, after their kind; and God saw that it was good.
Leiset'in hamphung thingphung ama ama chi dung juiyin ahung kehdoh in, agathei amu nei thingphung ama ama chi dungjui yin ahung kehdoh tauvin ahi. Pathen'in aven pha asah lheh jeng in ahi.
13 There was evening and there was morning, a third day.
Nilhah khat le jingkah khat achekit in nithum alhing tai.
14 God said, “Let there be lights in the expanse of the sky to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs to mark seasons, days, and years;
Chuin Pathen'in aseiye, “Sun le jan sepkhen dingin vanthomjol avah thei vahho hung kigol uhenlang, hiche ho chu kum kihei chin melchihnan jong, nikho simtoh nan jong chule kum simtoh nan jong pang'u hen.
15 and let them be for lights in the expanse of the sky to give light on the earth;” and it was so.
Chujong le hiche ho chu vana vanthamjol akon in leiset salvah-in pang u-hen,’’ atin ahileh, hiti chun aum tai.
16 God made the two great lights: the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night. He also made the stars.
Hiche achun Pathen in vah alen cheh ni asem in, vah alenjo chu sunlaiya thunei ding in apansah-in, chule vah aneojo chu janlaiya thunei ding in apansah tai; hiti chun ahsi ho jong ahin sem tai.
17 God set them in the expanse of the sky to give light to the earth,
Pathen in vahho chu vanthamjol apat in leiset salvah din apansah tai.
18 and to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness. God saw that it was good.
Sunlaiya thunei ding, janlaiya thunei ding, chule khovah le muthim sepkhen ding in apansah tan ahi. Pathen in aven ahileh pha asa lheh jeng in ahi.
19 There was evening and there was morning, a fourth day.
Hichu nikho li alhin ni ahi.
20 God said, “Let the waters abound with living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth in the open expanse of the sky.”
Pathen in aseiye, “Twija kon in nga ho leh ganhing ahingthei dangho umhen, chuleh vanthamjol ajong vachate ajat kimsoh in hung leng leu hen,’’ati.
21 God created the large sea creatures and every living creature that moves, with which the waters swarmed, after their kind, and every winged bird after its kind. God saw that it was good.
Hiti chun Pathen in twikhanglen'a ganhing ahing thei jouse ahona kijot le ding in asem in, hiche ho chun twi a kidil sah sah-uvin, ama ama jat cheh in alha uvin ahi, chujong le ajat jat in alhanei vachate jong asem in ahi. Hichu Pathen in aven pha asalheh jeng in ahi.
22 God blessed them, saying, “Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let birds multiply on the earth.”
Pathen in abonchauvin phatthei aboh in, “Hinpha uvin lang chule pung uvin, twikhanglen'a twi lah dimset uvin, chule leiset chunga vachate jong pung u-hen,’’ ati.
23 There was evening and there was morning, a fifth day.
Chuin nilhah khat le jingkah khat achen ni nga lhinna ahi tai.
24 God said, “Let the earth produce living creatures after their kind, livestock, creeping things, and animals of the earth after their kind;” and it was so.
Chuin Pathen in aseiye, “Leiset in ama akon in sa jat chom chom hin hingdoh hen! Ama ama jat dungyui cheh in, vah ngui thei gancha, tol'a kithol ganhing, leh gamsa ho jong hihen” ati. Hiti chun aum jeng tai.
25 God made the animals of the earth after their kind, and the livestock after their kind, and everything that creeps on the ground after its kind. God saw that it was good.
Chuin leiset chunga gamsa ho ama ama jat cheh in chule gancha ho jong ama ama jat cheh in a-opma kithol ajat jat in asem'e. Pathen in hiche ho chu aven pha asa lheh jeng in ahi.
26 God said, “Let’s make man in our image, after our likeness. Let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the birds of the sky, and over the livestock, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.”
Hichun Pathen in aseiye, “Eihon mihem ho, eiho lim pu'in sem u-hitin. Amaho chun twikhanglen sunga nga ho jouse chunga thunei diu, vanlai jol'a leng le vacha ho chule vah ngui thei gancha ho, le gam sa ho, chule a opa a kithol chengse chung'a thunei vaihom in pang'u hen,” ati.
27 God created man in his own image. In God’s image he created him; male and female he created them.
Hiti chun Pathen in ama lim mong mong in mihem chu asem in, Pathen lim tobang bang in ama lim chu asem tai, pasal le numei asem doh tan ahi.
28 God blessed them. God said to them, “Be fruitful, multiply, fill the earth, and subdue it. Have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the sky, and over every living thing that moves on the earth.”
Pathen in amani chu phatthei aboh in amani jah'a aseiye, “Chipha lhon in chule pung jing lhon in simseng louvin leiset chung hinlo dimset un, chule nangni noiya vaihom na umhen, vanlai jol'a leng vachate chunga jong chule twikhanglen'a ahingthei jouse chunga hijong le aboncha ganhing namkim hihen chule leiset chunga lhale ganhing jouse hile achung uva thunei vaihom in pang lhon tan,’’ ati.
29 God said, “Behold, I have given you every herb yielding seed, which is on the surface of all the earth, and every tree, which bears fruit yielding seed. It will be your food.
Pathen in hitin jong seiye, “Ve lhon in keiman leiset chunga muchi gathei phung jouse le thingphung gathei jouse aboncha hi nangni kihinso theina dinga kapeh lhon nahitai.
30 To every animal of the earth, and to every bird of the sky, and to everything that creeps on the earth, in which there is life, I have given every green herb for food;” and it was so.
Chule leiset chunga um gamsa jouse hihen chunga leng vachate ho hijongle tol'a aop'a kithol ganhing jouse hijongle ahaithei hinna nei jouse aneh ding uva hamhing jouse kapeh doh ahi tai,’’ atile, hitobang chun aum tai.
31 God saw everything that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. There was evening and there was morning, a sixth day.
Chuin Pathen in asemsa chengse chu aboncha'n aven, “Apha lheh jeng in ahi,” hichea chun nilhah le jingkah khat ahung um doh in nigup lhinni ahung hitai.
