Exodus 1
1 Now these are the names of the children of Israel, which came into Egypt (euery man and his housholde came thither with Iaakob)
Izip ram vah Jakop hoi cungtalah, amamae imthungnaw ka phat awh e Isarelnaw teh;
2 Reuben, Simeon, Leui, and Iudah,
Reuben, Simeon, Levih hoi Judah,
3 Issachar, Zebulun, and Beniamin,
Issakhar, Zebulun hoi Benjamin,
4 Dan, and Naphtali, Gad, and Asher.
Dan, Naphtali, Gad hoi Asher,
5 So al the soules, that came out of the loines of Iaakob, were seuentie soules: Ioseph was in Egypt already.
Jakop canaw abuemlah tami 70 touh a pha awh. Joseph teh Izip ram vah yo la ao toe.
6 Nowe Ioseph died and all his brethren, and that whole generation.
Joseph hoi a hmaunawnghanaw senae taminaw pueng teh koung a due awh toe.
7 And the children of Israel brought foorth fruite and encreased in aboundance, and were multiplied, and were exceeding mightie, so that the land was full of them.
Isarelnaw teh ca moi a pungdaw awh, a thao awh teh ram pueng dawk kho a sak awh.
8 Then there rose vp a newe King in Egypt, who knewe not Ioseph.
Hathnukkhu, Izip ram dawk Joseph ka panuek hoeh e siangpahrang katha a tâco.
9 And he sayde vnto his people, Beholde, the people of the children of Israel are greater and mightier then we.
Hote siangpahrang ni hai Isarelnaw teh maimanaw hlak apap awh, a thasai awh.
10 Come, let vs worke wisely with them, least they multiplie, and it come to passe, that if there be warre, they ioyne them selues also vnto our enemies, and fight against vs, and get them out of the land.
Tho awh, lungangcalah hoi ahnimouh lathueng hno sak awh sei. Nahoeh pawiteh, ahnimouh teh hoe pungdaw awh vaiteh, hmalah tarankâtuknae awm pawiteh, maimae tarannaw koe lah kambawng awh vaiteh, maimouh hah na tuk vaiteh ram dawk hoi a yawng awh han doeh telah a taminaw koe a dei pouh.
11 Therefore did they set taskemasters ouer them, to keepe the vnder with burdens: and they built the cities Pithom and Raamses for the treasures of Pharaoh.
Hatdawkvah, Izip bawinaw ni puenghoi rektap hanelah kaukkung a ta pouh. Isarel taminaw teh hno pâtung nahanlah Pithom khopui hoi Raameses khopui hah a sak awh.
12 But the more they vexed them, the more they multiplied and grewe: therefore they were more grieued against the children of Israel.
Hateiteh, rektapnae hoehoe a khang awh e patetlah hoehoe a pungdaw awh. Ahnimouh kecu dawk Izipnaw teh a lungpuen awh.
13 Wherefore the Egyptians by crueltie caused the children of Israel to serue.
Pueng hoi hoe a rektap awh.
14 Thus they made them weary of their liues by sore labour in clay and in bricke, and in al worke in the fielde, with all maner of bondage, which they layde vpon them most cruelly.
Talung bonae hoi amhru saknae koe, law thawnaw pueng dawk puenghoi a tawk sak awh teh a tawk e tangkuem dawk nget ka tawn lah a tawk sak awh.
15 Moreouer the King of Egypt commanded ye midwiues of the Ebrewe women, (of which the ones name was Shiphrah, and the name of the other Puah)
Izip siangpahrang ni Hebru tami, camo ka khe sak roi e kahni touh, Siphrah hoi Puah koevah,
16 And sayde, When ye doe the office of a midwife to the women of the Ebrewes, and see them on their stooles, if it be a sonne, then yee shall kill him: but if it be a daughter, then let her liue.
nangmouh roi ni Hebru napuinaw e camo khe sak roi nateh, a khenae hmuen koe na ring roi navah, ca tongpa khe pawiteh thet, napui khe pawiteh pâhlung roi haw telah atipouh.
17 Notwithstanding ye midwiues feared God, and did not as the King of Egypt commanded them, but preserued aliue the men children.
Camo kakhesak roi e ni Cathut a taki dawkvah, Izip siangpahrang e kâpoe e patetlah sak laipalah ca tongpa hah a pâhlung roi.
18 Then the King of Egypt called for the midwiues, and sayde vnto them, Why haue yee done thus, and haue preserued aliue the men children?
Izip siangpahrang ni hai camo kakhesak e roi a kaw teh, nangmouh roi ni bangkongmaw camo tongpanaw na pâhlung roi telah a pacei navah,
19 And the midwiues answered Pharaoh, Because the Ebrewe women are not as the women of Egypt: for they are liuely, and are deliuered yer the midwife come at them.
Ahnimouh roi ni Hebru napuinaw teh Izip napuinaw patetlah awm awh hoeh. Ahnimouh teh cao a yawi dawkvah, camo kakhesak e a tho hoeh nah camo yo a la khe toe telah atipouh roi.
20 God therefore prospered the midwiues, and the people multiplied and were very mightie.
Hatdawkvah, Cathut ni camo kakhesak roi e lathueng vah, hawinae a sak pouh. Hote miphun haiyah a pungdaw awh teh a thao awh.
21 And because ye midwiues feared God, therefore he made them houses.
Camo kakhesak e napui roi ni Cathut a taki roi dawkvah ahnimae imthungkhunaw hah a khetyawt roi.
22 Then Pharaoh charged all his people, saying, Euery man childe that is borne, cast yee into the riuer, but reserue euery maide childe aliue.
Faro siangpahrang ni hai Isarelnaw dawk ca tongpa khe e pueng teh Nai palang dawk tâkhawng naseh, Napui pâhlung awh naseh, telah a taminaw pueng koe lawk a thui.
