< Genesis 45 >

1 Then Joseph could not control himself before all those who stood before him, and he called out, “Cause everyone to go out from me!” No one else stood with him, while Joseph made himself known to his brothers.
Joseph teh a teng kaawm e pueng hmalah kâsum thai hoeh toung dawkvah, tami pueng kai koehoi koung tâcawt awh, telah a hram. Hottelah Joseph ni a hmaunawnghanaw koe a kâpanuesak nah yunglam apihai ahni teng kangdout awh hoeh.
2 He wept aloud. The Egyptians heard, and the house of Pharaoh heard.
Kacaipounglah a ka teh, Izipnaw ni a thai awh, Faro imthungkhu ni hai a thai awh.
3 Joseph said to his brothers, “I am Joseph! Does my father still live?” His brothers could not answer him; for they were terrified at his presence.
Joseph ni a hmaunawnghanaw koe kai teh Joseph doeh, apa atu sittouh a hring rah maw, telah ati. Hatei pato thai laipalah a hmaunaw roumkalue awh teh a hmalah sut a kangdue awh.
4 Joseph said to his brothers, “Come near to me, please.” They came near. He said, “I am Joseph, your brother, whom you sold into Egypt.
Joseph ni a hmaunawnghanaw koe, pahren lahoi na hnai awh haw, telah ati. Hateh a hnai awh. Ahni ni na hmaunawngha Joseph, Izip ram vah na yo awh e hah ma.
5 Now do not be grieved, nor angry with yourselves, that you sold me here, for God sent me before you to preserve life.
Hatei, hivah cei hanelah na yo awh dawkvah, na lungmathout hanh awh, namamouh hoi namamouh hai kâhmuhma hanh awh, bangkongtetpawiteh, hringnae rungngang hanelah Cathut ni nangmouh hmalah na patoun e doeh.
6 For these two years the famine has been in the land, and there are yet five years, in which there will be no plowing and no harvest.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, kum hni touh thung hete ram dawk takang a tho. Kum panga touh a ngai rah. Hat nah thung pueng teh laikawk kanawk awm mahoeh. Canga e hai awm mahoeh.
7 God sent me before you to preserve for you a remnant in the earth, and to save you alive by a great deliverance.
Hottelah talai van catoun ka tawn hanelah karingkung hoi rungngangnae kalen hoi na hringsakthai awh nahanlah, Cathut ni ahmaloe hoi nangmouh hmalah na patoun toe.
8 So now it was not you who sent me here, but God, and he has made me a father to Pharaoh, lord of all his house, and ruler over all the land of Egypt.
Hottelah hie hmuen koe na kacetsakkung hah nangmouh laipalah Cathut doeh. Ahni ni Faro hanelah na pa lah, imthungkhu kahrawikung, hoi Izip ram pueng kaukkung lah na coung sak.
9 Hurry, and go up to my father, and tell him, ‘This is what your son Joseph says, “God has made me lord of all Egypt. Come down to me. Do not wait.
Karanglah apa koe cet awh nateh, ahni koe na capa Joseph ni hettelah a dei, Cathut ni Izip ram pueng dawk bawi lah na sak, kai koe tho awh, uet awh hanh leih.
10 You shall dwell in the land of Goshen, and you will be near to me, you, your children, your children’s children, your flocks, your herds, and all that you have.
Goshen ram vah na o han. Nang nama hoi, na capanaw hoi na mincanaw hoi, na tuhunaw, na maitohu hoi na tawn e puenghoi kai koe roeroe vah na o han.
11 There I will provide for you; for there are yet five years of famine; lest you come to poverty, you, and your household, and all that you have.”’
Hawvah kai ni na kawk han. Bangkongtetpawiteh hawvah takang kum panga touh ao han rah. Hatdawkvah, na roedeng payon vaih nang hoi na imthung hoi na tawn e pueng hoi telah na ti pouh awh han.
12 Behold, your eyes see, and the eyes of my brother Benjamin, that it is my mouth that speaks to you.
Hahoi khenhaw! nangmae mit roeroe hoi ka nawngha Benjamin e mit roeroe ni kaie ka pahni ni a dei lahun e hah na hmu awh.
13 You shall tell my father of all my glory in Egypt, and of all that you have seen. You shall hurry and bring my father down here.”
Izip ram e ka bawilennae pueng hoi na hmu awh e hno pueng hah apa koe na dei awh vaiteh, apa teh karang poung lah na thokhai awh han, telah ati.
14 He fell on his brother Benjamin’s neck and wept, and Benjamin wept on his neck.
Hahoi a lungtabue hoi Benjamin lungtabue rekkâbet lah a tapam teh a ka. Benjamin ni hai a tapam teh a ka.
15 He kissed all his brothers, and wept on them. After that his brothers talked with him.
A hmaunawngha pueng a paco hnukkhu, a hmaunawnghanaw ni lawk a dei awh.
16 The report of it was heard in Pharaoh’s house, saying, “Joseph’s brothers have come.” It pleased Pharaoh well, and his servants.
Joseph e hmaunawnghanaw a tho awh tie kamthang teh Faro im vah a thai awh teh, hote kamthang ni Faro hoi a sannaw a lunghawi sak.
17 Pharaoh said to Joseph, “Tell your brothers, ‘Do this: Load your animals, and go, travel to the land of Canaan.
Faro ni Joseph koe, na hmaunawnghanaw koe, hettelah dei pouh, na saringnaw teh cakang phu sak hoi tâcawt awh nateh, Kanaan ram vah cet awh.
18 Take your father and your households, and come to me, and I will give you the good of the land of Egypt, and you will eat the fat of the land.’
Hahoi na pa hoi a imthung hah kaimouh koe thokhai awh. Izip ram e hnokahawi na poe awh vaiteh, hete ram dawk kaawm e hnokahawipoung hah na ca awh han telah dei pouh awh.
19 Now you are commanded to do this: Take wagons out of the land of Egypt for your little ones, and for your wives, and bring your father, and come.
Kâ na poe, hettelah dei pouh. Na canaw hoi na canunaw hane hoi na yunaw hanelah Izip ram hoi lengnaw sin awh nateh, na pa hah thokhai awh.
20 Also, do not concern yourselves about your belongings, for the good of all the land of Egypt is yours.”
Na hnopai kong dawk lungpuen hanh awh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Izip ram e hnokahawi pueng teh nangmae doeh, telah ati.
21 The sons of Israel did so. Joseph gave them wagons, according to the commandment of Pharaoh, and gave them provision for the way.
Hahoi teh, Isarel canaw ni hottelah a sak awh. Joseph ni Faro kâpoe e patetlah leng hah ahnimouh koe a poe. Lam vah a ca awh hane hai a poe.
22 He gave each one of them changes of clothing, but to Benjamin he gave three hundred pieces of silver and five changes of clothing.
Ahnimouh abuemlah koe khohna kâthung hanelah a poe. Benjamin koe teh tangka cumthum touh hoi khohna kâthung hane panga touh a poe.
23 He sent the following to his father: ten donkeys loaded with the good things of Egypt, and ten female donkeys loaded with grain and bread and provision for his father by the way.
Hahoi a na pa koevah, la hra touh, Izip ram hnokahawi kapawtkung hoi lamanu hra touh, lam vah a na pa hane cakang hoi vaiyei hoi canei han kaphawtkung lah a patoun.
24 So he sent his brothers away, and they departed. He said to them, “See that you do not quarrel on the way.”
Hottelah a hmaunawnghanaw hah a patoun teh a ceisak. Ahni ni lam vah na kâyue awh hoeh nahanlah kâhruetcuet awh telah ati.
25 They went up out of Egypt, and came into the land of Canaan, to Jacob their father.
Izip hoi a tâco awh teh a na pa Jakop koe a pha awh.
26 They told him, saying, “Joseph is still alive, and he is ruler over all the land of Egypt.” His heart fainted, for he did not believe them.
Hatei, Joseph a hring rah Izip ram pueng ukkung lah ao telah a dei pouh awh. Jakop a lungmit teh, ahnimouh ni dei e tang thai hoeh.
27 They told him all the words of Joseph, which he had said to them. When he saw the wagons which Joseph had sent to carry him, the spirit of Jacob, their father, revived.
Hatei, ahni koe Joseph ni lawk dei e pueng hah a dei pouh awh. Hahoi a kâcui hane leng Joseph ni a patawn e hah a hmu toteh, a na pa Jakop e lungthin bout a kâhlaw.
28 Israel said, “It is enough. Joseph my son is still alive. I will go and see him before I die.”
Isarel ni a khout toe, ka capa Joseph teh a hring doeh rah, ka cei vaiteh, ka due hoehnahlan ka hmu han telah ati.
