< Genesis 20 >

1 And Abraham journeyed from thence toward the land of the South, and dwelt between Kadesh and Shur; and he sojourned in Gerar.
Hiche akon chun Abraham chu Negev gam langa akichon in Kadesh le Shur kikah a phat chomkhat ana cheng in, chuin Gerar lang gei in aga cheng in ahi.
2 And Abraham said of Sarah his wife, She is my sister: and Abimelech king of Gerar sent, and took Sarah.
Abraham'in a inneipi Sarah chu “Ka sopinu ahi,” tin ana phong don in ahile Gerar lengpa Abimelech chun mi asol'in Sarah chu aga pui sah tai.
3 But God came to Abimelech in a dream of the night, and said to him, Behold, thou art but a dead man, because of the woman which thou hast taken; for she is a man’s wife.
Hinlah hiche jan chun Pathen in Abimelech amang in aki musah in hitin aseipeh'e, “Nangma hi athisa nahi ahi tai, ajeh chu numei na kipui hi aji nei numei ahi bouve!”
4 Now Abimelech had not come near her: and he said, Lord, wilt thou slay even a righteous nation?
Ahin Abimelech chun amanu (Sarah), chu akitimatpi loulai ahi, hijeh chun Abimelech in “Pakai nangin hiche imacha hechenlou nam hi na suhmang mong ding hitam?
5 Said he not himself unto me, She is my sister? and she, even she herself said, He is my brother: in the integrity of my heart and the innocency of my hands have I done this.
Hitia chu Abraham tah in jong ka sopinu ahi tia eina houlimpi hilou ham? Chule amanun jong ka sopipa ahi atia,” hijeh achu keiman ka lungthim a jong themmo na beihel a chule ka khut teni jong atheng ahi bouve ati.
6 And God said unto him in the dream, Yea, I know that in the integrity of thy heart thou hast done this, and I also withheld thee from sinning against me: therefore suffered I thee not to touch her.
Hijeh chun Pathen in amang in adonbut in, “Ahinai, keiman nangma hetthem louna ho chu ka henai. hiche ho jeh achu nangma keima douna a chonset a konna kasuh khen a chule hiche ho jeh a chu numeinu to kaki timat sah lou ahi.
7 Now therefore restore the man’s wife; for he is a prophet, and he shall pray for thee, and thou shalt live: and if thou restore her not, know thou that thou shalt surely die, thou, and all that are thine.
Tun numeinu chu a inneipu komma soltan, amapa a inneipun taona naman peh ding ahi, ajeh chu ama themgao ahi, chuteng nangma nadam kit ding ahi tai. Ahin nahet ding khat chu a inneipi nanung peh doh louleh nangma chule na mite nathi gam diu ahi.
8 And Abimelech rose early in the morning, and called all his servants, and told all these things in their ears: and the men were sore afraid.
Hijeh chun Abimelech jong jingkah matah in a kithu doh in chuin asoh ho jouse gang tah in akou khom tan, chuin Abimelech in thusoh jouse chu asohte ho lah achun aseiyin tijat na adim tauve.
9 Then Abimelech called Abraham, and said unto him, What hast thou done unto us? and wherein have I sinned against thee, that thou hast brought on me and on my kingdom a great sin? thou hast done deeds unto me that ought not to be done.
Hichun Abimelech in Abraham chu akou vin ajah'a “Ipibol a hiti pia hi nei hung bol'u hitam? Itobang a nang douna a kana chonset hitam, hitia keile ka leng gam chunga chonset nasatah hi nahin pohlut ham? bol louhel ding thil nangman neibol khum ahi tai,” ati.
10 And Abimelech said unto Abraham, What sawest thou, that thou hast done this thing?
Chuin Abimelech in Abraham komma aseiye, “Nang in ipi nabol na ham?”
11 And Abraham said, Because I thought, Surely the fear of God is not in this place; and they will slay me for my wife’s sake.
Abraham'in adonbut in, “Hiche munhi Pathen ginglou mihem tamna mun ahi tin kagel in, ka loinu chu ka sopinu ahi kiti leh ama nu jeh a chu eitha lou diu ham kati ahi.”
12 And moreover she is indeed my sister, the daughter of my father, but not the daughter of my mother; and she became my wife:
Adihtah asei dinga ka sopinu jong ahi nai, kapa eihing lhonpa khat ahin kanu lhon vang achom chom ahi. keiman kaji din kaki pui tai.
13 and it came to pass, when God caused me to wander from my father’s house, that I said unto her, This is thy kindness which thou shalt shew unto me; at every place whither we shall come, say of me, He is my brother.
Pathen in eina kou doh chun kapa insung kanada lhah chun mun khat a patna mun chom a kana vale lhon lai chun kana seiye, thil ngaichat kaneiye katin, hoilang hi jongle iche le naho gamsunga na sopipa tin miho lah a neiphon doh ding ahi tin kana seipeh e.”
14 And Abimelech took sheep and oxen, and menservants and womenservants, and gave them unto Abraham, and restored him Sarah his wife.
Hichun Abimelech in akelcha ho le kelngoi hon ho chule abong hon chule numei pasal asoh ho chu Abraham apetai. Abimelech in a inneipi Sarah jong chu anungsol peh kit tai.
15 And Abimelech said, Behold, my land is before thee: dwell where it pleaseth thee.
Hichun Abimelech in adonbut in, “Dah'in lang vetem in kagam sung nang in nadei pen na mun a na chen thei ahiye.”
16 And unto Sarah he said, Behold, I have given thy brother a thousand pieces of silver: behold, it is for thee a covering of the eyes to all that are with thee; and in respect of all thou art righted.
Abimelech in Sarah jah'a aseiye, “Ven keiman na sopipa dangka sang khat kapen, hiche sum hi na koma um chengse mitmu a asuh khel kihet them to na dinga kapeh ahi, chule japi angsunga nangma boina nanei tapoi,” ati.
17 And Abraham prayed unto God: and God healed Abimelech, and his wife, and his maidservants; and they bare children.
Hichun Abraham'in Pathen kom a taona amang in Pathen in Abimelech asu dam tan, chule a inneipi le asoh numei ho jouse naobu jouse jong cha aneithei na diuvin aki hong gam tai.
18 For the LORD had fast closed up all the wombs of the house of Abimelech, because of Sarah Abraham’s wife.
Ajeh chu Abraham jinu Sarah jeh a Pakaiyin Abimelech insunga numei naobu jouse ana kha tan peh ahiye.
