Potdohbu 17
1 Pakai thupeh bang in Israel chate abonchauvin Sin gammang akon in akitol uvin mun khat akon munchom khat'a akitol leuvin ahi. Rephidem kiti mun'na ngahmun akisem'uvin hinlah hiche lai mun'na chun twidon ding aumta pon ahi.
And all the assembly of the sons of Israel set forward out of the desert of Sin, by their removings, at the bidding of Yahweh, —and encamped in Rephidim, and there was no water for the people to drink.
2 Mipi jong Mose heng'a avel lin a phunchel kit tauvin, “Don ding twi neipe uvin,” ati tauve. Mose'n a donbut in ajah uva, “Ipi ding'a kei koma ki phin'a na hiuvem? Chule ipi ding'a nang hon Pakai na patep u ham?”
And the people found fault with Moses, and said—Give us water, that we may drink. And Moses said to them, Why should ye find fault with me? Why should ye put Yahweh to the proof?
3 Mipihon twi angaicha jing uvin Mose dounan thu aseijun akiphin gam tauvin, “Ipi ding'a Egypt gamsung'a kon'na nei hin puidoh mong mong'u hitam? Nangman keiho le, ka chate'u chule ka gan chate'u ka boncha uva dangchah'a thigam sah ding nei got uva hitam?” tin asei uve.
So the people thirsted, there for water, and the people murmured against Moses, —and said—Wherefore is it that thou hast brought us up out of Egypt, to kill me and my sons and my cattle, with thirst?
4 Chuin Mose jong Pathen heng'a kap pum'in ataovin, “Hiche miteho ding'a ipi kabol ding hitam? Song'a selih ding eigo tauve,” ati.
And Moses made outcry unto Yahweh saying, What am I to do, with this people? Yet a little, and they will stone me.
5 “Chuin Pakaiyin Mose heng'a aseijin, “Mipiho ma'sang a konchun ki khen doh tem'in chule Nile vadung San najepna tenggol chu kichoijin lang Israel upa ho phabep kipuijin.”
Then said Yahweh unto Moses—Pass over before the people, and take with thee some of the elders of Israel, —thy staff also wherewith thou didst smite the river, take thou in thy hand, so shalt thou go thy way.
6 “Keiman Sinai molsang songpi chungvum'ma ka dinpi ding nahiye, chuteng songpi chu jep lechun twi hung kikho doh jeng ding, Israel miten adon thei diu ahitai,” ati.
Behold me! standing before thee, there upon the rock in Horeb, then shalt thou smite the rock and there shall come forth therefrom water, and the people shall drink. And Moses did so, in the sight of the elders of Israel.
7 Mose'n jong hiche mun chu Massah asah tan ahi (hichu ‘patepna’ tia kihe ahi) Chule Maribah (hichu ‘ki khoh doh’ tina ahi) ajeh chu Isreal mite Mose heng'a aphunchil uva, Pakai doumah jing asei doh uvin, “Na Pakaiyin keiho hikoma hi ei umpi mong uva hinam?” atiuvin ahi.
So he called the name of the place, Massah, and Meribah, —because of the fault-finding of the sons of Israel, and because of their putting Yahweh to the proof, saying, Is Yahweh in our midst or is he not?
8 Israel mite Rephidim mun aum jinglai yun, Amalek mite ahung kon uvin akisat petauve.
Then came in Amalek, —and fought with Israel, in Rephidim.
9 Chuin Mose'n jong Joshua heng'a thupeh aneijin, “Amalek mite toh kisat ding pasal galsat ding phabep khat lheng doh tem'in. Jing nikho le keima gamlah molsang'a ka din ding hichea chu Pathen bantha hat ka dopsang'a ka pan ding ahi,” ati.
And Moses said unto Joshua—Choose for us men, and go forth, fight with Amalek, —to-morrow, am, I, stationing myself upon the top of the hill, with the staff of God in my hand.
10 Mose thupeh bang'in, Joshua'n jong Galsat ding pasal phabep alheng doh tan Amalek mite chu gal akisat pi tauvin ahi. Chuin Mose, Aaron leh Hur amaho cheng chu gam lah molsang lam'a akal tou tauvin ahi.
So Joshua did as Moses had said to him, to fight with Amalek, —and Moses, Aaron and Hur, went up to the top of the hill.
11 Mose'n akhut teni a dopsang chan in Israel mite ahat be cheh jiuvin, chule akhutteni akham teng le vang Amelek mite ahat jita uvin ahi.
And it shall be when Moses shall lift on high his hands, then shall Israel prevail, but when he shall let down his hands, then shall Amalek prevail.
12 Mose khut teni chu ahung khaam tan ahile aman jong adomsang joutapon chuin Aaron le Hur'in jong akhut ngap nading'in song ahol le hontan, a khut teni chu song chung'a angam lhan toumun in nilhum keijin akhut chu chol lou helin a domsang thei tan ahiye.
But, the hands of Moses, were weary, so they took a stone, and put under him, and he sat thereupon, —and, Aaron and Hur, upheld his hands—on this side, one and on that side, one, and so his hands became steady, until the going in of the sun.
13 Ajonan Joshua le agalsat mihon Amelek mite chu ajoutaovin ahi.
So Joshua overthrew Amalek and his people, with the edge of the sword.
14 Gal ajo phat uvin, Pakaiyin Mose heng'a aseijin, “Het jing na ding'in lekhajol khat lanlang hiche gal kisat chung chang thuhi sunlut'in lang Joshua nabeng'a avella nasim peh tan: vannoiya Amalek kihetna kiti keiman kasuh mang hel ahitai,” ati.
Then said Yahweh unto Moses—Write this as a remembrancer in a book, and rehearse it in the ears of Joshua—that I will, wipe out, the remembrance of Amalek, from under the heavens.
15 Mose'n jong hiche lai munna chun maicham asem in, “YAWEH-NISSI” (Pakai chu kaponlop ahi) tin asah tai.
And Moses built an altar, —and called the name thereof, Yahweh-nissi.
16 Aman aseijin, “Amalek mite'n Pakai doumah'a chon masao ahin, tunvang! Pakaiyin imatih channa Amalek mite akidou peding ahitai,” ati.
And he said—Because of a hand against the throne of Yah, Yahweh hath war with Amalek, —from generation to generation!
