Genesis 23
1 Now the years of Sarah's life were a hundred and twenty-seven.
Sarah chu kum jakhat le kum som ni le kum sagi jen ahing in,
2 And Sarah's death took place in Kiriath-arba, that is, Hebron, in the land of Canaan: and Abraham went into his house, weeping and sorrowing for Sarah.
Sarah chu Kiriath-arba kiti muna athi tan, hichu Hebron kiti Canaan gam sunga um ahi, hichun Abraham chu Sarah umlou jeh a lunghel le mitlhi long in achup in ahi.
3 And Abraham came from his dead and said to the children of Heth,
Hichun ajinu long adalhah ding jeh in Hit mite ho kom a aseiyin,
4 I am living among you as one from a strange country: give me some land here as my property, so that I may put my dead to rest.
“Keima gam chom mi kahin nangho lah a maljin bou kahi. Gambeh neo khat nei choh sah un, chuti le keiman ka jinu hi phaten kivui thei ing'e,” ati.
5 And in answer the children of Heth said to Abraham,
Hit mite ho chun Abraham adonbut un,
6 My lord, truly you are a great chief among us; take the best of our resting-places for your dead; not one of us will keep back from you a place where you may put your dead to rest.
Ja umtah kapu thuseiyu ngaiyin, nangma Pathen a leng chapa banga kei ho lah a uma keiho lhan khuh aphapen khat'a khun na thilong chu vui jeng in, ka lah uva mihem khat cha jong hi alhan khuh na itpeh a na thilong na vuisah lou ding aum poi,” atiuve.
7 And Abraham got up and gave honour to the children of Heth, the people of that land.
Hichun Abraham ading doh in agamsung mipite Hite miho chu salam bol din abohkhup tai.
8 And he said to them, If you will let me put my dead to rest here, make a request for me to Ephron, the son of Zohar,
Abraham'in aseiyin, “Nangman nei kithopi nom kahen ahithei dingle Ephron Zohar chapa koma neisei peh uvin.”
9 That he will give me the hollow in the rock named Machpelah, which is his property at the end of his field; let him give it to me for its full price as a resting-place for my dead among you.
“Ajeh chu agamgi chin a um ama Machpelah songlhan keo khu eipeh theiya ahile ken jong lhan muna kaman jing dingin nangho umpet tah hin aman alhingset in peng kate,” ati.
10 Now Ephron was seated among the children of Heth: and Ephron the Hittite gave Abraham his answer in the hearing of the children of Heth, and of all those who came into his town, saying,
Ephron chu mipi lah a atou pet ahin, Abraham chu adonbut in midang hon jong athusei chu aja cheh un, Hite mite ho khopi sunga umjouse jah ah hitin aseiye.
11 No, my lord, I will give you the field with the hollow in the rock; before all the children of my people will I give it to you for a resting-place for your dead.
“Hithei ponte ka Pakai,” tin Abraham chu adonbut'e, “Lungset tah in ka thusei hi ngaiyin, keiman ka gam sunga adam lai, atong lai, kapeh ding nahi. Tuhin mipi ho masanga nangma kapeh ding nahi, chule nangman naji nu alongdamsa navui thei ahi.”
12 And Abraham went down on his face before the people of the land.
Abraham chu agam mipiho masang a abohkhup kit in,
13 And Abraham said to Ephron, in the hearing of the people of the land, If only you will give ear to me, I will give you the price of the field; take it, and let me put my dead to rest there.
Hichun Abraham'in Ephron le mipi atou cheng ho jah'a aseikit in, “Hithei ponte, lungset tah in ngaiyun, nangho koma ka choh nom lheh e, keiman gam man chu ka peh lhing nom e, ka loinu longdamsa kavui thei na ding in,” ati.
14 So Ephron said to Abraham,
Hichun Ephron in Abraham adonbut in,
15 My lord, give ear to me: the value of the land is four hundred shekels; what is that between me and you? so put your dead to rest there.
Ka Pakai lungset tah in ngaiyin hiche gam man hi dangka jali ahiye, amavang eini golcha kingailut nahi mantam ahi? che inlang na loinu long damsa chu gavui tan ati.
16 And Abraham took note of the price fixed by Ephron in the hearing of the children of Heth, and gave him four hundred shekels in current money.
Hichun Abraham chun Ephron in aseijat dangka jali chu apetan, hiche lai phat na kailhang thil man dung jui jin, thil kichoh dan ho chu Hit mite lah a tehse hon amu cheh uve.
17 So Ephron's field at Machpelah near Mamre, with the hollow in the rock and all the trees in the field and round it,
Abraham'in Ephron koma gam Machpelah kiti Mamre koma um chu acho doh tai. Hiche mun in ahop chu ahile atong, adam sung, chule akoma thingphung um jouse jong ahi.
18 Became the property of Abraham before the eyes of the children of Heth and of all who came into the town.
Abraham dinga chu anei agou ahitan, hichea chun Hit mite kelkot kom a chenghon jong ahe soh un ahi.
19 Then Abraham put Sarah his wife to rest in the hollow rock in the field of Machpelah near Mamre, that is, Hebron in the land of Canaan.
Phat chomkhat jouvin Abraham'in ajinu Sarah long Machpelah a Mamre koma Hebron kiti Canaan gamsunga avuitan ahi.
20 And the field and the hollow rock were handed over to Abraham as his property by the children of Heth.
Aleimun le aleilaiya songlhan keo chu Hite miten alhan mun dingin Abraham achansah tauve.
