Genesis 37
1 And Jacob dwelt in the land where his father sojourned — in the land of Canaan.
Hichun Jacob Canaan chu apa khopem na Canaan gamsunga anung chen kit tai.
2 These are the generations of Jacob. Joseph, being seventeen years old, fed the flock with his brethren; and he was doing service with the sons of Bilhah, and with the sons of Zilpah, his father's wives. And Joseph brought to his father an evil report of them.
Hiche thusim hohi Jacob insung mite a ahi, Joseph kum som le sagi alhinin apa kelngoi ho asopi ho toh aching tup jingin avahva jingun, asopi ho apa jithah chate ho Bilhah le Zilpah chate ho toh natong khom jing ahiuve. Ahin nikhat chu Joseph in asopiho umchan phatlou dan apa kom ahin lhut tan ahi.
3 And Israel loved Joseph more than all his sons, because he was son of his old age; and he made him a vest of many colours.
4 And his brethren saw that their father loved him more than all his brethren, and they hated him, and could not greet him with friendliness.
Amavang asopite hon Joseph chu avetda cheh un ahi, Ajeh chu apan midang ho sanga Joseph angailut najeh in amahon Joseph henga ngailut thucheng thupha seiding hahsa asa lheh un ahi.
5 And Joseph dreamed a dream, and told [it] to his brethren, and they hated him yet the more.
Joseph in nikhat mang anei in amang chu asopiho asei pehle amahon avetda cheh un ahi.
6 And he said to them, Hear, I pray you, this dream, which I have dreamt:
Aman aseiye, “Ngaijun ka mang ho kasei ding ahi ati.
7 Behold, we were binding sheaves in the fields, and lo, my sheaf rose up, and remained standing; and behold, your sheaves came round about and bowed down to my sheaf.
Ehon phailei lama chang phel ikan khom un, hiche tah chun hetman louvin keima changphal ho chu ading doh in, nangho changphal ho chu keima changphal masanga abohkhup uve,” ati.
8 And his brethren said to him, Wilt thou indeed be a king over us? wilt thou indeed rule over us? And they hated him yet the more for his dreams and for his words.
Hichun asopi hon adonbut un, “Amapa chun keiho chunga vaihom ding kigong nahim? Ahiloule keiho chunga thanei ding kigo mong nahim,” atiuve. Hichun amahon amang neitoh athusei doh ho jeh in hatah in avetdau vin ahi.
9 And he dreamed yet another dream, and told it to his brethren, and said, Behold, I have dreamt another dream, and behold, the sun and the moon and eleven stars bowed down to me.
Joseph in mang khat aneibe kit in chuin asopi ho chu asei peh kit in aman aseiye, “Ngaijun mang khat ka neibe kitne ati, tun nisa, lha, chule ahsi som le khat ho jong keima masanga abohkhup cheh uve,” ati.
10 And he told [it] to his father and to his brethren. And his father rebuked him, and said to him, What is this dream which thou hast dreamt? Shall we indeed come, I and thy mother and thy brethren, to bow down ourselves to thee to the earth?
Tua mang aneipa hi Joseph in apa chule asopite ho jouse jong abonchan aseipeh soh keiyin ahi. Ahin apa in aphoh thip'in,” hiche mang chu ipi tina ham tin adonbut e, “nanu toh kei chule nasopi teho jouse atahbeh a kahung uva nang masanga ka hung boh khup dingu ham?”
11 And his brethren envied him; but his father kept the saying.
Ama vang Joseph sopiho chu alung ahang lheh un athangthip thei lheh un, apa vang chun hiche mang chu ipi tina ham ahet thei lou jeh in alung adong lheh in ahi.
12 And his brethren went to feed their father's flock at Shechem.
Phat chomkhat jou chun Joseph sopiho chu Schechem lama apa kelngoi ching ding in achekit tauvin ahi.
13 And Israel said to Joseph, Do not thy brethren feed [the flock] at Shechem? Come, that I may send thee to them. And he said to him, Here am I.
Amaho chedoh jou phat chomkhat jouvin, Jacob in Joseph koma aseiye, “Nasopite ho Schechem lam a kelngoi hon ho aga vah un ahin, nangma naga che lou khoh ahi atin, Joseph in adonbut in, “keima kaga che ding ahi,” ati.
14 And he said to him, Go, I pray thee, see after the welfare of thy brethren, and after the welfare of the flock; and bring me word again. And he sent him out of the vale of Hebron; and he came towards Shechem.
Jacob in adon but in, “Nangma gache inlang na sopite ho chule kelngoi ho iti hina uvem gaven ati. Amaho thusoh kajah nom kitne, Hebron phaicham apat in asol tan, hichun Joseph hiche Schechem chu ahung lhung tan ahi.
15 And a man found him, and behold, he was wandering in the country; and the man asked him, saying, What seekest thou?
Ahin vetan gamlah a lampi akimansah a ava koile na a mi khat in atoh khan mipa chun adongin “Ipi ham nahol le?” atile.
16 And he said, I am seeking my brethren: tell me, I pray thee, where they feed [their flocks].
Joseph in adonbut in, “Ka sopite ho kahol ahi atin, hoi langa gancha ho achin uham neisei peh thei ding ham,” ati.
17 And the man said, They have removed from this; for I heard them say, Let us go to Dothan. And Joseph went after his brethren, and found them at Dothan.
Mipa chun adonbut in, “Amaho kihou limna kajan eiho Dothan lama chetau hite,” aki tiuve.
18 And when they saw him from afar, and before he came near to them, they conspired against him to put him to death.
Joseph ahung chun asopihon gam la thimtah ahivang in ahe pai tauvin, ama ahung lhun masang in asopite hon Joseph thadoh nading tohgon anei tauvin ahi.
19 And they said one to another, Behold, there comes that dreamer!
“Tuhin mang neipa ahung tai,” amahon atiuve.
20 And now come and let us kill him, and cast him into one of the pits, and we will say, An evil beast has devoured him; and we will see what becomes of his dreams.
Hung un amahi that doh taute, chule hiche kotong ho sung khat a pai mang taute. Ipa'u koma hitin seiyu hite, “Gancha khat in Joseph chu a nedoh tai, chule eihon veu hite ama amang ho chu hunggui lhung nam,” atiuve.
21 And Reuben heard [it], and delivered him out of their hand, and said, Let us not take his life.
Ahin Reuben in amaho tohgon lung thim ho chu ahet phat in Joseph kitho pi ding in ahungin, “Aman asei tai Joseph hi tha datau hite,” ati.
22 And Reuben said to them, Shed no blood: cast him into this pit which is in the wilderness; but lay no hand upon him — in order that he might deliver him out of their hand, to bring him to his father again.
Ibola thisan imoh lonsah ding'u ham? hilai kotong gamgo lah a seplut leuhen ama cham in eihon that hih jong leu hen ama thi ta lou ding ham. Reuben chu a lungthima Joseph chu huhdoh tei ding tichu ama dei ahi.
23 And it came to pass when Joseph came to his brethren, that they stripped Joseph of his vest, the vest of many colours, which he had on;
Hichun Joseph ahung lhun chun asopite hon a sangkhol chol hoitah chu asut lhah peh pai tauvin ahi.
24 and they took him and cast him into the pit; now the pit was empty — there was no water in it.
Hichun amahon Joseph chu adah a aman uvin kotong sunga aseplut tauvin, hiche kotong chu imacha umlou twi jong veilou ahi.
25 And they sat down to eat bread; and they lifted up their eyes and looked, and behold, a caravan of Ishmaelites came from Gilead; and their camels bore tragacanth, and balsam, and ladanum — going to carry [it] down to Egypt.
Chule amaho sun an ne dinga aumlai tah'un, aga dadoh uva ahile vetan Gilead a kona hung sumkol veile Ishmael miho a sangan ho toh hung kilhona bego le thingthao namtwi toh chule lou namtwi hinpoa Egypt gam lang jonsuh ding amu uvin ahi.
26 And Judah said to his brethren, What profit is it that we kill our brother and secrete his blood?
Hichun Judah in a sopiho jah a aseiyin, “I sopipau itha doh uva ipi apha chom ding umham,” ati, chule athi san isel mang uva chu ipi phachom ding ham?
27 Come and let us sell him to the Ishmaelites; but let not our hand be upon him; for he is our brother, our flesh. And his brethren hearkened [to him].
Hung uvin Joseph hi Ishmael te koma joh doh tauhite, isopi nah nah iphe ivou nah nah chu a chunga jong ikhut lhapou hite,” atile asopiten jong asei angai cheh tauve.
28 And Midianitish men, merchants, passed by; and they drew and lifted up Joseph out of the pit, and sold Joseph to the Ishmaelites for twenty silver-pieces; and they brought Joseph to Egypt.
Hiti chun Egypt gam'a kivei miho chun apui tauvin Joseph chu asopihon kotong a kon in a kaidoh un, Ishmael miho Midianite miho koma dangka somni in akijoh doh tauve.
29 And Reuben returned to the pit, and behold, Joseph [was] not in the pit; and he rent his garments,
Phat chomkhat jouvin, Reuben chu kokhuh langa chun achekit'in ahile Joseph chu kokhuh sunga ana umtapoi, hichun Reuben chu alung akham lheh jengtan asang khol ho chu abottel in ahi.
30 and returned to his brethren, and said, The child is not; and I, where shall I go?
Hichun Reuben asopiho lah'a akinungle kit in lungkham tah in, “Joseph chu aum tapoi! tua hi keiman ipi kabol ding hitam,” ati.
31 And they took Joseph's vest, and slaughtered a buck of the goats, and dipped the vest in the blood;
Hichun Joseph sopihon kelnou khat athat uvin, athisan chu Joseph sangkhol a chun anu tauve.
32 and they sent the vest of many colours and had it carried to their father, and said, This have we found: discern now whether it is thy son's vest or not.
Amahon hichu sangkhol thisan anu u-chu apau Jacob athot un, mihon jong apau henga achoi uvin, “Hiche pihi ka mudoh uve, vetem in na chapa sangkhol chol hiya ham hilou ham,” atiuve.
33 And he discerned it, and said, [It is] my son's vest! an evil beast has devoured him: Joseph is without doubt rent in pieces!
Jacob'in gangtah in ahedoh pai in, hitin asei tai, “Hiche hi kachapa sangkhol ahi monge gamsa khat in vang anehdoh ahitai ati, Joseph vang hi aphe avou lahthei hita ponte,” ati.
34 And Jacob rent his clothes, and put sackcloth on his loins, and mourned for his son many days.
Hichun Jacob'in apon ho chu abot tel in khaodip pon akikhu khum tan, Ama ni sottah lung hemin genthei tah in achapa pul adoutan ahi.
35 And all his sons and all his daughters rose up to comfort him, but he refused to be comforted, and said, For I will go down to my son into Sheol mourning. Thus his father wept for him. (Sheol h7585)
Jacob chate jouse le achanute jousen lhepbi ding agong un, ahin amavang lhepbi jou ahitapoi, hitin amapan aseiye, “Keima lunghem pum in kachapa lhankhuh jon tang kate, tin Jacob chu akap e.” (Sheol h7585)
36 And the Midianites sold him into Egypt, to Potiphar, a chamberlain of Pharaoh, the captain of the life-guard.
Phat chomkhat jouchun Midian miho chun Joseph chu Potiphar kitipa Pharaoh Egypt lengpa koma semang pachong pa koma ajoh doh tauve. Potiphar natoh chu ahile sepai lah a semang pachong ahi.
