¹Huan, Levi inn a kipan pasal khat a paikhia a, Levi tanu ji in anei hi.

¹And there went a man of the house of Levi, and took to wife a daughter of Levi.

²Huan. Numei in nau apai a, tapa anei a: Naupang mel hoih ahi chih a theih in, kha thum a selta hi.

²And the woman conceived, and bare a son: and when she saw him that he was a goodly child, she hid him three months.

³Huchia a sel joh nawnlouh takin, phaiphek bawm abawl saka, vahai buan leh chimin ajutbit a, asungah nau a koih a; lui pangah loupa kawm ah a koih hi.

³And when she could not longer hide him, she took for him an ark of bulrushes, and daubed it with slime and with pitch, and put the child therein; and she laid it in the flags by the river's brink.

⁴Huchiin, asanggamnu gamla kuamah a dinga, bang ahong suak hiam chih thei ding in.

⁴And his sister stood afar off, to wit what would be done to him.

⁵Huan, Pharo tanu luiah kisil dingin a hong paisuk a; a nungjui nute lui geiah avak uhi; huchia loupa laka bawm a muh in, a nungjui nu vala dingin a sawl hi.

⁵And the daughter of Pharaoh came down to wash herself at the river; and her maidens walked along by the river's side; and when she saw the ark among the flags, she sent her maid to fetch it.

⁶Ahon leh, naupang amuta: huan, ngaiin, naungek akapta hi. Huchiin, a hehpih ta a, hiai Hebru tate laka khat ahi achi hi.

⁶And when she had opened it, she saw the child: and, behold, the babe wept. And she had compassion on him, and said, This is one of the Hebrews' children.

⁷Huan, a sanggam nun Pharo tanu kiang, nau hon donsak ding, Hebru numei te laka nau don mi khat kon va sapsak na ut hia? Achia.

⁷Then said his sister to Pharaoh's daughter, Shall I go and call to thee a nurse of the Hebrew women, that she may nurse the child for thee?

⁸Huan, Pharo tanu in a kiangah, kuanin, a chi a. Huchiin nungak a kuantaa, naungek nu a vasamta hi.

⁸And Pharaoh's daughter said to her, Go. And the maid went and called the child's mother.

⁹Huchiin Pharo tanuin a kiangah hiai nau la khia inla hondonsak in, na loh kon pe ding, a chi a. huchiin huai numeiin nau a lataa, a donta hi.

⁹And Pharaoh's daughter said unto her, Take this child away, and nurse it for me, and I will give thee thy wages. And the women took the child, and nursed it.

¹⁰Huan, nau a khanga, pharo tanu kiangah a honpi a huchiin a tapa a honghita hi. A min dingin Mosi asa: Tui a kipana ka kaihkhiak a hih jiak in, a chi a.

¹⁰And the child grew, and she brought him unto Pharaoh's daughter, and he became her son. And she called his name Moses: and she said, Because I drew him out of the water.

¹¹Huai laiin hichi a honghi a, Mosi a hong letin, a unaute kiangah a vahoha, a puakgikte uh a vamu hi, a unaute laka khat, Hebru mi khat Aigupta miin a vuak lai a vamuta.

¹¹And it came to pass in those days, when Moses was grown, that he went out unto his brethren, and looked on their burdens: and he spied an Egyptian smiting an Hebrew, one of his brethren.

¹²Huchiin, a dak loplopa kuamah a om kei chih a theihtakin, Aigupta mi a thattaa, piaunel ah a sel hi.

¹²And he looked this way and that way, and when he saw that there was no man, he slew the Egyptian, and hid him in the sand.

¹³Huan, a ni nih nia a va hoh nawn leh, ngaiin, Hebru mite laka mi nih a kilai ua; a gilou hihpa kiang, bang dinga na lawm vua na hia? a chi a.

¹³And when he went out the second day, behold, two men of the Hebrews strove together: and he said to him that did the wrong, Wherefore smitest thou thy fellow?

¹⁴Huan, aman, ka tung ua lal leh vaihawm dia nang kuan honbawl ahia? Aigupta mi na thah banga, honthah tum na hi maw? A chi a. Huchiin, Mosi a lauthawnga, hiai thil kitheikhe petmah eive, a chi a.

¹⁴And he said, Who made thee a prince and a judge over us? intendest thou to kill me, as thou killedst the Egyptian? And Moses feared, and said, Surely this thing is known.

¹⁵Huchia Pharoin hiai a jakin, Mosi thah dingin a zongta. Himahleh Pharo maia kipanin Mosi a taimangtaa, Midian gamah a tengta: huchiin tuileh kiangah a tu hi.

¹⁵Now when Pharaoh heard this thing, he sought to slay Moses. But Moses fled from the face of Pharaoh, and dwelt in the land of Midian: and he sat down by a well.

¹⁶Huan, Midian siampuin tanu sagih a neia: a hongpai ua, tui a hongtawi ua, a pa uh ganhon buahna dingin a tuitheite uh a dim dim uh.

¹⁶Now the priest of Midian had seven daughters: and they came and drew water, and filled the troughs to water their father's flock.

¹⁷Huan, belamchingte a hong ua, a hawl mang ua: a hihhangin, Mosi a dinga, amau a panpiha, a ganhon uh tui a buak hi.

¹⁷And the shepherds came and drove them away: but Moses stood up and helped them, and watered their flock.

¹⁸Huchiin, a pa uh Reuel kianga a hong tak un, bangachia, tuniin hongpai baih ve uchia? A na chi a.

¹⁸And when they came to Reuel their father, he said, How is it that ye are come so soon to day?

¹⁹Huan, amau, belamchingte khuta kipanin Aigupta mi khatin hon hunkhiaa, tui leng a hontawi chingsaka, ganhon a buak hi, a chi ua.

¹⁹And they said, An Egyptian delivered us out of the hand of the shepherds, and also drew water enough for us, and watered the flock.

²⁰Huan, aman a tanute kiangah, ahihleh kaw om ahia? Bangdia huai mi honnusia? An ne dingin sam un, a chi a.

²⁰And he said unto his daughters, And where is he? why is it that ye have left the man? call him, that he may eat bread.

²¹Huchiin, Mosi huai mi kianga ten a lung a kima: huchiin aman a tanu Zippora Mosi a peta hi.

²¹And Moses was content to dwell with the man: and he gave Moses Zipporah his daughter.

²²Tapa a neihsaka, a min Gersom a sa: Melmak gama mikhual ka hita, a chih jiakin.

²²And she bare him a son, and he called his name Gershom: for he said, I have been a stranger in a strange land.

²³Hun hongpai jel ah hichi ahi a, Aigupta kumpipa a sitaa: huchiin a koltanna jiak un Israel suantea thumthum ua, a kap ua, a kahna uh a koltan jiak un Pathian kiangah a tungtou hi.

²³And it came to pass in process of time, that the king of Egypt died: and the children of Israel sighed by reason of the bondage, and they cried, and their cry came up unto God by reason of the bondage.

²⁴A mauna uh Pathianin a jaa, huchiin Pathianin Abraham toh, Isaak toh Jakob toh a thukhun a theigige hi.Huchiin Pathianin Israel suante a ena, Pathianin a mau a zah hi.

²⁴And God heard their groaning, and God remembered his covenant with Abraham, with Isaac, and with Jacob.

²⁵Huchiin Pathianin Israel suante a ena, Pathianin a mau a zah hi.

²⁵And God looked upon the children of Israel, and God had respect unto them.
