Semtilbu 17

1 Abram chu kum somko le kumko alhin in Pathen in ahoulimpi in hitin aseipeh e, “Keima Elshaddai Pathen chungnung kahi. Hijeh chun lunglhaisel in nei hou jing in lang, chule thenna hinkho mang jing in,” ati.

And Abram was ninety-nine years old, and the Lord appeared to Abram and said to him, I am your God, be well-pleasing before me, and be blameless.

2 Keiman nangma to ikikah a kitepna nape ing ka-ting hichu thonlou hela nangma chilhah simsen lou kapeh ding nahi.

And I will establish my covenant between me and you, and I will multiply you exceedingly.

3 Hichun Abram in amai tol lang aven hichun Pathen in ahin hou vin hitin aseiye,

And Abram fell upon his face, and God spoke to him, saying,

4 Hiche hi keima le nangma kinop tona ahi, keiman nangma hi nam jouse mipa kaso ding nahi ati.

And I, behold! my covenant [is] with you, and you shall be a father of a multitude of nations.

5 Abanna jong na min jong kakhel peh ding, Abram nahi tahlou ding, Hinlah nangma hi Abraham na kiti ding ahi tai, ajeh chu nangma hi nam jouse mipa nahi ding ahi tai.

And your name shall no more be called Abram, but your name shall be Abraam, for I have made you a father of many nations.

6 Keiman nangma hatah a kaga sah ding, na lolhin ding na chilhah ten nam tamtah ahin sondoh diu, chule leng thupitah tah jong amaho lah a hung umdoh ding ahiye.

And I will increase you very exceedingly, and I will make nations of you, and kings shall come out of you.

7 Keiman athah a nangma to iki noptona chu na chilhahte to kaki tepna avela ka phudoh kit ding nangma nunga na chilhahte a dinga jong, khang le khang kikah ajong, hiche hi atonsot'a hiding, keima na Pathen nu kahi jing ding chule nanam, na chilhahte Pathen jong kahi jing ding ahi.

And I will establish my covenant between you and your seed after you, to their generations, for an everlasting covenant, to be your God, and [the God] of your seed after you.

8 Keiman Canaan gam pumpi ahin, tua nachen na gam kholjin banga nachen nau hi nason na chilhahte atonsot a goulo dinga ka peh ding, chule amaho dinga jong a Pathen'u kahi jing ding ahi,” ati.

And I will give to you and to your seed after you the land wherein you sojourn, even all the land of Chanaan for an everlasting possession, and I will be to them a God.

9 Hichun Pathen in Abraham ahoulimpi in, “Nangma tah in jong kinopto na hi na jui ding, chule na nunga nason na chilhahte dinga jong akhang lhum kei uva ajui ding'u ahi.

And God said to Abraam, You also shall fully keep my covenant, you and your seed after you for their generations.

10 Hiche hi ahi kinopto na nangma le na chilhahte jousen ajui cheh ding, nangho lah a pasal jousen chep akitan soh kei ding'u ahi.

And this [is] the covenant which you shall fully keep between me and you, and between your seed after you for their generations; every male of you shall be circumcised.

11 Nangman na bollou a hitheilou chu na tahsa vun val abohlai chu na chelhah soh kei ding, hichun avetsah chu ahile keima le nangma kikah a ki nopto na hijing ding ahi.

And you shall be circumcised in the flesh of your foreskin, and it shall be for a sign of a covenant between me and you.

12 Hiche hi nangma insung mite seh hilou vin, koi tobang nasoh na kol nangma insunga dinga na choh doh ho jouse jong ahop tha cheh ding,

And the child of eight days [old] shall be circumcised by you, every male throughout your generations, and [the servant] born in the house and he that is bought with money, of every son of a stranger, who is not of your seed.

13 Abonchauva chep na kitan cheh diu, na tahsa uva maha na poh u-chu keima toh atonsot na iki nopto na'uva umjing ding ahiye.

He that is born in your house, and he that is bought with money shall be surely circumcised, and my covenant shall be on your flesh for an everlasting covenant.

14 Koi tobang pasal khat tou hiche kinopto na cheptan hi bol lou aumle ama chu kinopto na insunga kon'a paimanga um ding ahi, ajeh chu kinopto na ajuilou jeh ahi.

And the uncircumcised male, who shall not be circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin on the eighth day, that soul shall be utterly destroyed from its family, for he has broken my covenant.

15 Hichun Pathen in Abraham ahoulimpi in “Sarai na Inneipi Sarai na ti tahlou ding ahi, ijeh inem itile amanu min jong hi tua patna Sarah hiding ahi tai.

And God said to Abraam, Sara your wife—her name shall not be called Sara, Sarrha shall be her name.

16 Keiman amanu hi phatthei kaboh a chu jongle ama nu akon a hi chapa khat kapeh ding nahi, hitia chu keiman amanu hi phatthei kaboh a ama jong “Sarah” chitin namtin nu hung hi ding mitin vaipi leng ding ho jeng jong amanu akona hung peng doh ding ahiuve,” ati.

And I will bless her, and give you a son of her, and I will bless him, and he shall become nations, and kings of nations shall be of him.

17 Hichun Abraham jong akun in tol lang aven anui tai, chuin alungthim in amale ama akihou vin, Keima hi kum jakhat kahi nunga mipa kahi thei ding ham? Chule ka inneipi Sarah jong kum som ko le kum ko ahi jouva naosen iti anei thei ding ham? ati.

And Abraam fell upon his face, and laughed; and spoke in his heart, saying, Shall there be a child to one who is a hundred years old, and shall Sarrha who is ninety years old, bear?

18 Abraham'in Pathen heng'a asei in, “Ahi thei ding le Ishmael hi nangma phattheibohna noiya um jing tahen.”

And Abraam said to God, Let this Ismael live before you.

19 Hinlah Pathen in adonbut in, “ahipoi Sarah na inneipi in nangma adinga chapa khat nahin peh ding, nangman hiche chapang chu amin Isaac nasah ding ahi. Chule keiman amale ama nunga ason achilhahte dinga kinopto na chu atonsot geiya kinopto na a umjing dinga kaphu doh ding ahi.

And God said to Abraam, Yes, behold, Sarrha your wife shall bear you a son, and you shall call his name Isaac; and I will establish my covenant with him, for an everlasting covenant, to be a God to him and to his seed after him.

20 Ishmael jong chu phatthei kaboh ding nangman nathum ma bang'a, ama jeng jong hatah a kapun sah ding, chule ama chilhahte ho jong hatah a pung dingu ahi.

And concerning Ismael, behold, I have heard you, and, behold, I have blessed him, and will increase him and multiply him exceedingly; twelve nations shall he beget, and I will make him a great nation.

21 Hinlah keima kitepna vang chu Sarah in khovei tulai phat'a hi nahin ding Isaac chuto bou ka phudoh ding ahi,” ati.

But I will establish my covenant with Isaac, whom Sarrha shall bear to you at this time, in the next year.

22 Pathen in thu aseijou phat chun Abraham chu adalhatai.

And he left off speaking with him, and God went up from Abraam.

23 Hichun Abraham'in jong achapa Ishmael ahin, asoh pasal ama insunga peng den hihen, sum a achoh tho hi jongle, Abraham mite lah a pasal jouse chu apuikhom in, Pathen'in aseipeh bang bang chun hiche nikho mama chun chep atan peh soh kei in ahi.

And Abraam took Ismael his son, and all his home-born [servants], and all those bought with money, and every male of the men in the house of Abraam, and he circumcised their foreskins in the time of that day, according as God spoke to him.

24 Abraham'in chep akitan chun akum kum som ko le kum ko ana lhing tai.

And Abraam was ninety-nine years old, when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin.

25 Chule achapa Ishmael in chep akitan chun kum som le kum thum ana lhing tan ahi.

And Ismael his son was thirteen years old when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin.

26 Ani lhon in Abraham le achapa Ishmael chu nikhat na chep tan lhon gel ahi.

And at the period of that day, Abraam was circumcised, and Ismael his son,

27 Chule a insunga pasal jouse, insunga pengden hihen lang gam dang mi soh dinga akichoh tho hi jongle aboncha amatoh tha khat'a chep kitan thah cheh ahiuve.

and all the men of his house, both those born in the house, and those bought with money of foreign nations.
