¹And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,

¹Huan TOUPAN Mosi kiangah thu a gena,

²`Sanctify to Me every first-born, opening any womb among the sons of Israel, among man and among beast; it [is] Mine.`

²Piang masapente tengteng, Israel suante laka sul hong peuhmah, mihing lam leh ganta lam, honpekhia in; keia ahi, chiin.

³And Moses saith unto the people, `Remember this day [in] which ye have gone out from Egypt, from the house of servants, for by strength of hand hath Jehovah brought you out from this, and any thing fermented is not eaten;

³Huchiin Mosiin mite kiangah, Hiai ni theigige un, Aigupta gama kipana na hongpawt khiak ni uh, saltannain akipana na hongpawt khiak ni uh; khut hatnain TOUPAN hiai mun a hontun lah ahi ngala: tanghou silngou soh nek ding a om kei ding.

⁴To-day ye are going out, in the month of Abib.

⁴Hiai niin Abib khain na hongpai khia uhi.

⁵`And it hath been, when Jehovah bringeth thee in unto the land of the Canaanite, and of the Hittite, and of the Amorite, and of the Hivite, and of the Jebusite, which He hath sworn to thy fathers to give to thee, a land flowing with milk and honey, that thou hast done this service in this month.

⁵Hichi ahi ding TOUPAN Kanante, Hitte, Amorte, Hivte leh Jebuste gam nou honpiak dinga na pipute uh kianga a kichiamna, bawngnawitui leh khuaijua luang gam a hontut chiangin, hiai silbawl hiai khain na hih ding uh.

⁶`Seven days thou dost eat unleavened things, and in the seventh day [is] a feast to Jehovah;

⁶Ni sagih tanghou silngou soh louh na ne ding ua, a ni sagih niin TOUPA adingin ankuangluina a om ding.

⁷unleavened things are eaten the seven days, and any thing fermented is not seen with thee; yea, leaven is not seen with thee in all thy border.

⁷Ni sagih tanghou silngou sohlouh a kine dia; na kiang uah tanghou silngou soh a kimu ding ahi kei, na omna tengteng uah leng silngou muhin a om ding ahi sam kei hi.

⁸`And thou hast declared to thy son in that day, saying, `[It is] because of what Jehovah did to me, in my going out from Egypt,

⁸Huai ni chiangin na tapa na ensak ding, Aigupta gama kipana ka hongpai khiak laia TOUPAN ka tunga huai a hih jiaka hiai hiha om ahi, chiin.

⁹and it hath been to thee for a sign on thy hand, and for a memorial between thine eyes, so that the law of Jehovah is in thy mouth, for by a strong hand hath Jehovah brought thee out from Egypt;

⁹Huan na banah nang adingin chiamtehna ding ahi dia, na mite kikala theihgigena, huchia na TOUPA dan a om theihna dingin TOUPAN ban thahata Aigutpa gama kipan nou a honpi khiak jiakin.

¹⁰and thou hast kept this statute at its appointed season from days to days.

¹⁰Huaijiakin kum tengin a hunbiin hiai dan na jui ding.

¹¹`And it hath been, when Jehovah bringeth thee in unto the land of the Canaanite, as He hath sworn to thee and to thy fathers, and hath given it to thee,

¹¹Huan, hichi ahi dinga TOUPAN, nang kiang leh na pipute kianga a kichiam banga, Kanante gam a hontut chiangin, huai a honpe ding.

¹²that thou hast caused every one opening a womb to pass over to Jehovah, and every firstling — the increase of beasts which thou hast: the males [are] Jehovah`s.

¹²TOUPA adingin sul hong tengteng nakoih tuam ding, na neih ganta akipana hongom a nou masapen teng; a pa te TOUPA a ahi ding uh.

¹³`And every firstling of an ass thou dost ransom with a lamb, and if thou dost not ransom [it], then thou hast beheaded it: and every first-born of man among thy sons thou dost ransom.

¹³Huan sabengtung nou masapen teng belamnouin na tan dinga; huchia na tat keileh, a ngawng na hektan ding: huan na tate laka mihing ta masa tengteng na tan ding hi.

¹⁴`And it hath been, when thy son asketh thee hereafter, saying, What [is] this? that thou hast said unto him, By strength of hand hath Jehovah brought us out from Egypt, from a house of servants;

¹⁴Hun hongtung dingah hichi ahi dinga na tapain, Hiai banga hia? chia a hondot chiangin, nang a kiangah, Banthahatin TOUPAN Aigupta gam akipan, koltanna ina kipan a hon lakheta, a kiang ah na chi ding:

¹⁵yea, it cometh to pass, when Pharaoh hath been pained to send us away, that Jehovah doth slay every first-born in the land of Egypt, from the first-born of man even unto the first-born of beast; therefore I am sacrificing to Jehovah all opening a womb who [are] males, and every first-born of my sons I ransom;

¹⁵Huan, hichi ahia, Pharoin a honpai sak nop ngel louh laiin, TOUPAN Aigupta gama piang masa tengteng na thata, mihinga piang masate leh gantaa piang masate: huaijiakin sul hong tengteng, pasal hiin, TOUPA kiangah ka kithoihnaa; himahleh ka tate laka a piang masa tengteng ka tan hi.

¹⁶and it hath been for a token on thy hand, and for frontlets between thine eyes, for by strength of hand hath Jehovah brought us out of Egypt.`

¹⁶Huchiin na khutah theihna ding ahi dinga, na mitte kikala khaukhip ding, ahi ding: TOUPAN Aigupta gama kipana ban thahata a hon pi khiak jiakin.

¹⁷And it cometh to pass in Pharaoh`s sending the people away, that God hath not led them the way of the land of the Philistines, for it [is] near; for God said, `Lest the people repent in their seeing war, and have turned back towards Egypt;`

¹⁷Huan, hichi ahia, Pharoin mite a paisak laiin, Pathianin, naijaw mahleh, Philistinte gam lam kanin amaute a pi kei; Pathianin, Kidouna a muh chiang un mite a kisik kha ding ua, Aigupta gam lamah a kihei kha ding uh, a chih jiakin:

¹⁸and God turneth round the people the way of the wilderness of the Red Sea, and by fifties have the sons of Israel gone up from the land of Egypt.

¹⁸Himahleh Pathianin mite a pi kawia, Tuipi San gamdai lampi lam kanin; huchiin Aigupta gama kipanin kigalvansain Israel suante a paitou ta uhi.

¹⁹And Moses taketh the bones of Joseph with him, for he certainly caused the sons of Israel to swear, saying, `God doth certainly inspect you, and ye have brought up my bones from this with you.`

¹⁹Huchiin Mosiin Joseph guhte a kipuaka: Pathianin pellouin a honveh dinga: hiai akipanin ka guhte na kipuak ding uh ahi, chia Israel suante kianga chihtaktaka a kichiam jiakin.

²⁰And they journey from Succoth, and encamp in Etham at the extremity of the wilderness,

²⁰Huchiin Sukkoth akipan a zin khe ta ua, gamdai jul ah, Etham mun ah a giakta uhi.

²¹and Jehovah is going before them by day in a pillar of a cloud, to lead them in the way, and by night in a pillar of fire, to give light to them, to go by day and by night;

²¹Huan TOUPA a ma uah sunin meipi dingin, a maute lampia pi dingin, a paia; janin mei dingin, amaute vakna pe dingin; sun leh jana pai dingin:Mite maa kipanin suna meipi ding hiam, a hihkeileh jana mei ding hiam a la mang kei hi.

²²He removeth not the pillar of the cloud by day, and the pillar of the fire by night, [from] before the people.

²²Mite maa kipanin suna meipi ding hiam, a hihkeileh jana mei ding hiam a la mang kei hi.
