¹Huan, Abraham a hong upataa, a hong tek mahmah taa: huan, Toupan Abraham thil bangkimah a vualjawl hi.

¹And Abraham was old, and well stricken in age: and the LORD had blessed Abraham in all things.

²Huan, Abrahamin, a sikha, a inkuanpihte laka upapen, a neih tengteng tunga thuneipa kiangah, Hehpihtakin na khut ka pheipi nuiah golhin:

²And Abraham said unto his eldest servant of his house, that ruled over all that he had, Put, I pray thee, thy hand under my thigh:

³Huchiin, Toupa, van Pathian leh lei Pathian louin, ka omna Kanan mite nungak laka mi ka tapa ji dinga neihsak lou dingin, ka hon kichiamsak ding ahi:

³And I will make thee swear by the LORD, the God of heaven, and the God of the earth, that thou shalt not take a wife unto my son of the daughters of the Canaanites, among whom I dwell:

⁴Ka gam lama, ka tanaute kianga hoha, ka tapa Isaak ji na neihsak zo ding ahi, achia.

⁴But thou shalt go unto my country, and to my kindred, and take a wife unto my son Isaac.

⁵Huan, sikhain, a kiangah, Numeiin hiai gam lamah honjui nuam khol kei dia: na tapa na hong pawtna gam lamah ka pi kik nawn ding ahi diam? A chia.

⁵And the servant said unto him, Peradventure the woman will not be willing to follow me unto this land: must I needs bring thy son again unto the land from whence thou camest?

⁶Huan, Abrahamin, a kiangah, ka tapa huailaia pi kik nawnlou dingin pilvangin.

⁶And Abraham said unto him, Beware thou that thou bring not my son thither again.

⁷Toupa van Pathian, ka pa in akipan leh ka pianna gam a kipan hon pikhepa leh hon houpihpa leh, hiai gam na suante kiangah ka pe ding, chia, ka kianga kichiampan, amah ngeiin a angel na maah a paisak dinga, huai akipanin ka tapa ji na hon neisak ding hi.

⁷The LORD God of heaven, which took me from my father's house, and from the land of my kindred, and which spake unto me, and that sware unto me, saying, Unto thy seed will I give this land; he shall send his angel before thee, and thou shalt take a wife unto my son from thence.

⁸Huan, numeiin a hon zuih nop kei leh, ka kianga na kichiamna thu ah na siang mai ding; a bang a bang hitaleh, ka tapa huailaiah na pi kik nawn ding ahi kei, achia.

⁸And if the woman will not be willing to follow thee, then thou shalt be clear from this my oath: only bring not my son thither again.

⁹Huchiin, sikhain a khut a pu Abraham pheipi nuaiah a golha, huai thu ah a kiangah a kichiamta hi.

⁹And the servant put his hand under the thigh of Abraham his master, and sware to him concerning that matter.

¹⁰Huan, sikhain a pu sangawngsau laka sangawngsau sawm a kaia, a pu thil hoih chiteng tawiin, a pawttaa: huchiin a thoua, Mesopotamia gam a, Nahorte khua aha hoha.

¹⁰And the servant took ten camels of the camels of his master, and departed; for all the goods of his master were in his hand: and he arose, and went to Mesopotamia, unto the city of Nahor.

¹¹Huan, nitaklama, numeite tuitawi dinga a kuan hun lai tak un, dainawla tuileh kiangah a sangawngsaute akhukdinsak a.

¹¹And he made his camels to kneel down without the city by a well of water at the time of the evening, even the time that women go out to draw water.

¹²Huan, Aw Toupa, ka pu Abraham Pathian, hehpihtakin tuniin hon lohchingsak in, ka pu Abraham tungah hehpihna langsakin.

¹²And he said O LORD God of my master Abraham, I pray thee, send me good speed this day, and show kindness unto my master Abraham.

¹³Enin, tuikhuk kiangah ka dinga, khua a mite tanute leng tuitawi dingin a hongkuan uh:

¹³Behold, I stand here by the well of water; and the daughters of the men of the city come out to draw water:

¹⁴Huchiin, hichi hihen, nungak kuapeuh kianga, hehpihtakin ka dawn dingin na tui bel niamsak dih ve, ka chiha, huan, aman, Dawnin, na sangawngsaute leng dawn ding ka pe ding, chi peuhmah, huai mi ngei na sikha Isaak a dinga na mi seh hihen; huan huaiah ka pu tungah hehpihna na langsak chih ka thei ding hi, a chi hi.

¹⁴And let it come to pass, that the damsel to whom I shall say, Let down thy pitcher, I pray thee, that I may drink; and she shall say, Drink, and I will give thy camels drink also: let the same be she that thou hast appointed for thy servant Isaac; and thereby shall I know that thou hast showed kindness unto my master.

¹⁵Huan, hichi ahia, a gen khit main, ngaiin, Abraham nau Nahor ji Milka tapa Bethuel tanu Rebeka tui bel a liangjang a puain a hongkuana.

¹⁵And it came to pass, before he had done speaking, that, behold, Rebekah came out, who was born to Bethuel, son of Milcah, the wife of Nahor, Abraham's brother, with her pitcher upon her shoulder.

¹⁶Huai nungak a mel a hoih mahmaha, nungak siangthou ahi a, pasal himhimin a kithuahpih ngei hetkei uh. Huan, tuikhuk ah a pai suka, a tuibel a dimsaka, a pai tou nawna.

¹⁶And the damsel was very fair to look upon, a virgin, neither had any man known her: and she went down to the well, and filled her pitcher, and came up.

¹⁷Huan, sikha amah tuak dingin a taia, Hehpihtakin na tuibel a tui tawm chik hondan sak ve, achia.

¹⁷And the servant ran to meet her, and said, Let me, I pray thee, drink a little water of thy pitcher.

¹⁸Huan, aman, dawn ve, ka toupa, achia; huan, kintakin a tuibel a khut in a dom khe suka, a dawnsak hi.

¹⁸And she said, Drink, my lord: and she hasted, and let down her pitcher upon her hand, and gave him drink.

¹⁹Huan, a dawn nungin, na sangawngsaute dingin leng a dawn kham masiah uh ka tawi jel ding, achia.

¹⁹And when she had done giving him drink, she said, I will draw water for thy camels also, until they have done drinking.

²⁰Huan, kintakin a tuibel a gan kuangah a teia, tui tawi dingin tuileh lamah a tai nawna, a sangawngsau tengteng a dingin leng a tawitawi hi.

²⁰And she hasted, and emptied her pitcher into the trough, and ran again unto the well to draw water, and drew for all his camels.

²¹Huan, sikhain a lohchingsak leh saklouh theihna dingin a dai didea.

²¹And the man wondering at her held his peace, to wit whether the LORD had made his journey prosperous or not.

²²Huan, hichi ahia, sangawngsauten a dawn kham takun sikhain dangkaeng bilbah makhai buk leh, a khut a dinga tau nih dangkaeng dangka sawm buk a suaha;

²²And it came to pass, as the camels had done drinking, that the man took a golden earring of half a shekel weight, and two bracelets for her hands of ten shekels weight of gold;

²³Huan, a kiangah, kua tanu na hia? Hehpihtakin hin hilh in. Na pa in ah ka giahna ding uh mun om ding hia? achia.

²³And said, Whose daughter art thou? tell me, I pray thee: is there room in thy father's house for us to lodge in?

²⁴Huan, aman, a kiangah, Bethuel, Milka tapa, Nahor adinga neihsaknu tanu ka hi, achia.

²⁴And she said unto him, I am the daughter of Bethuel the son of Milcah, which she bare unto Nahor.

²⁵Huan, amah mahin, a kiangah, buhpawl leh gan an ka hau tuaktuak ua, giahna mun leng ka nei uh, achia.

²⁵She said moreover unto him, We have both straw and provender enough, and room to lodge in.

²⁶Huchiin, sikhain a lu a kunsaka, Toupa chibai a buk hi.

²⁶And the man bowed down his head, and worshipped the LORD.

²⁷Huan, ka pu tunga a hehpihna leh a takna tawp tuanlou, toupa, ka pu Abraham Pathian, phatin om hen: kei leng, Toupan ka pu unaute in lamah hon na pi eive, achia.

²⁷And he said, Blessed be the LORD God of my master Abraham, who hath not left destitute my master of his mercy and his truth: I being in the way, the LORD led me to the house of my master's brethren.

²⁸Huan, nungak a taia, huai thute a nu inkuanpihte a vahilh hi.

²⁸And the damsel ran, and told them of her mother's house these things.

²⁹Rebekain sanggam pasal a neia, a min Laban ahia: huchiin, Laban a pawta, tuikhuk lamah, mi kiangah a vatai taa.

²⁹And Rebekah had a brother, and his name was Laban: and Laban ran out unto the man, unto the well.

³⁰Hichi ahia, bilbah leh a sanggamnu khut a taute a mua, min huchi khachiin honchi, chia, a sanggamnu Rebeka thu gente a jak takin, huai mi kiangah a hohta a; huan, ngaiin, amah tuikhuka sangawngsaute kiangah a na ding gige a.

³⁰And it came to pass, when he saw the earring and bracelets upon his sister's hands, and when he heard the words of Rebekah his sister, saying, Thus spake the man unto me; that he came unto the man; and, behold, he stood by the camels at the well.

³¹Huan, Labanin, nang Toupa vualjawl pa, hong inla, ka in ah lutin; bangdia inpua a ding nilouh? in leh sangawngsaute adingin mun ka bawl khinta, achia.

³¹And he said, Come in, thou blessed of the LORD; wherefore standest thou without? for I have prepared the house, and room for the camels.

³²Huan, huai in ah a luta, huan Labanin sangawngsau van a phela; huan, sangawngsaute adingin buhpawl leh gan an apia a, akhe leh a lawmte khe silna dingin tui a pia hi.

³²And the man came into the house: and he ungirded his camels, and gave straw and provender for the camels, and water to wash his feet, and the men's feet that were with him.

³³Huan, Abraham sikha maah nek ding a lui ua; himahleh, aman, ka hong na san thu kagen mateng ka ne kei ding, achia. Huan, aman, gen ve, achia.

³³And there was set meat before him to eat: but he said, I will not eat, until I have told mine errand. And he said, Speak on.

³⁴Huan, aman, Abraham sikha ka hi.

³⁴And he said, I am Abraham's servant.

³⁵Huan, Toupan ka pu nakpiin a vualjawla, mi liantak a honghi a: Toupan a kiangah belam honte, bawng honte, dangkate, dangkaengte, sikhapate, sikhanute, sangawngsaute, sabengtung te leng a pia.

³⁵And the LORD hath blessed my master greatly; and he is become great: and he hath given him flocks, and herds, and silver, and gold, and menservants, and maidservants, and camels, and asses.

³⁶Ku pu ji Sarain tek ningin ka pu adingin tapa a neia: amah kiangah a neih tengteng a pe vek hi.

³⁶And Sarah my master's wife bare a son to my master when she was old: and unto him hath he given all that he hath.

³⁷Huan, ka puin, ka omna gama Kanante nungak laka ka tapa ji dinga na neihsak ding ahi kei:

³⁷And my master made me swear, saying, Thou shalt not take a wife to my son of the daughters of the Canaanites, in whose land I dwell:

³⁸Ka pa in lamah, ka tanaute kiangah hohin, ka tapa dingin ji na neihsak zo ding ahi, chiin, hon kichiamsaka.

³⁸But thou shalt go unto my father's house, and to my kindred, and take a wife unto my son.

³⁹Huan, ken ka pu kiangah, Numeiin honjui nuam kei kha ding, ka chia.

³⁹And I said unto my master, Peradventure the woman will not follow me.

⁴⁰Huan, aman, ka kiangah, Toupa a maa ka om jelnain a angel na kiangah honsawl dinga; na hohna dingah hon lohchingsak ding; huchiin, ka tapa dingin ka tanaute leh ka pa inkuanpihte laka ji dingin na neihsak ding hi:

⁴⁰And he said unto me, The LORD, before whom I walk, will send his angel with thee, and prosper thy way; and thou shalt take a wife for my son of my kindred, and of my father's house:

⁴¹Ka tanaute kiang ngeia na tun chiangin ka kianga na kichiamna apat na siang ding; nungak a honpiak kei uleh ka kianga na kichiamna akipan na siang ding, achia.

⁴¹Then shalt thou be clear from this my oath, when thou comest to my kindred; and if they give not thee one, thou shalt be clear from my oath.

⁴²Huchiin, tuniin tuikhuk ka hongtunga, Aw, Toupa, ka pu Abraham Pathian, ka paina ah na hon lohchinsak ding leh, enin, tuikhuk kiangah ka ding hi:

⁴²And I came this day unto the well, and said, O LORD God of my master Abraham, if now thou do prosper my way which I go:

⁴³Huan, hichi hi hen, nungak tui tawi dinga hongkuan, kuapeuh kianga, hehpihtakin dawn dingin na tuibel a tui tawm chik honpe ve, ka chih a;

⁴³Behold, I stand by the well of water; and it shall come to pass, that when the virgin cometh forth to draw water, and I say to her, Give me, I pray thee, a little water of thy pitcher to drink;

⁴⁴Huan, aman, ka kianga, dawnin, sa sangawngsaute ading leng ka tawi ding, chi peuhmah, huai mi ngeingei ka pu tapa adinga Toupa numei seh hihen, ka chia.

⁴⁴And she say to me, Both drink thou, and I will also draw for thy camels: let the same be the woman whom the LORD hath appointed out for my master's son.

⁴⁵Huan, ka lungsim a ka gen khit main, ngaiin, Rebeka a tuibel puain a hongkuana; huan, tuikhuk ah a paisuka, tui a tawia; huan, a kiangah, hehpihtakin tui hondawnsak ve, ka chia.

⁴⁵And before I had done speaking in mine heart, behold, Rebekah came forth with her pitcher on her shoulder; and she went down unto the well, and drew water: and I said unto her, Let me drink, I pray thee.

⁴⁶Huan, aman kintakin a liangjang akipan tuibel a dom khiaa, dawnin, na sangawngsaute leng dawn ding ka pe ding, achia: huchiin ka dawna, sangawngsaute leng a dawnsaka.

⁴⁶And she made haste, and let down her pitcher from her shoulder, and said, Drink, and I will give thy camels drink also: so I drank, and she made the camels drink also.

⁴⁷Huan, ken, kua tanu na hia? chiin, ka donga. Huan, aman, Bethuel, Nohar tapa, Milkhain a neihsakpa tanu, achia: huan bilbah abil ah ka batsaka, taute leng a khut ah ka bunsak.

⁴⁷And I asked her, and said, Whose daughter art thou? And she said, the daughter of Bethuel, Nahor's son, whom Milcah bare unto him: and I put the earring upon her face, and the bracelets upon her hands.

⁴⁸Huan, ka lu ka kunsaka, Toupa chibai ka buka, Toupa, ka pu Abraham Pathian, ka pu unaupa tanu a tapa adinga ji dia neisak dinga lampi diktaka honpipa, ka phat hi.

⁴⁸And I bowed down my head, and worshipped the LORD, and blessed the LORD God of my master Abraham, which had led me in the right way to take my master's brother's daughter unto his son.

⁴⁹Huchiin, tuin ka pu na hehpih ua, a tunga chihtak peta na hih ding uleh honhilh un; na hih kei ding uleh leng honhilh un; huchiin taklam hiam, veilam hiam, ka nga thei ding hi, achia.

⁴⁹And now if ye will deal kindly and truly with my master, tell me: and if not, tell me; that I may turn to the right hand, or to the left.

⁵⁰Huan, Laban leh Bethuel in a dawng ua, hiai thil Toupa kianga kipana pawt ahi: a sia a pha leng na kiangah ka gen theikei uh.

⁵⁰Then Laban and Bethuel answered and said, The thing proceedeth from the LORD: we cannot speak unto thee bad or good.

⁵¹Enin, Rebeka na maah a om hi, pi inla, pain, Toupan a gensa bangin na pu tapa ji dingin om hen, a chi ua.

⁵¹Behold, Rebekah is before thee, take her, and go, and let her be thy master's son's wife, as the LORD hath spoken.

⁵²Huan, hichi ahia, Abraham sikhain a thu uh a jak takin lei siin Toupa chibai a buk hi.

⁵²And it came to pass, that, when Abraham's servant heard their words, he worshipped the LORD, bowing himself to the earth.

⁵³Huan, Abraham sikhain dangka suang kizepnate leh, dangkaeng kizepnate leh, silh leh ten a lakhia a, Rebeka kiangah a pia a: a sanggampa kiangah leh a nu kiangah leng thil manpha pipi a pia hi.

⁵³And the servant brought forth jewels of silver, and jewels of gold, and raiment, and gave them to Rebekah: he gave also to her brother and to her mother precious things.

⁵⁴Huan, amah leh a lawmten a ne ua a dawn ua, a giakta ua; huan, jingsangin a thou ua ka pu kiangah honpaisakta un, achia.

⁵⁴And they did eat and drink, he and the men that were with him, and tarried all night; and they rose up in the morning, and he said, Send me away unto my master.

⁵⁵Huan, a sanggampa leh a nuin, naunu ni sawtlou chik ni sawm lel bek, ka kiang uah om tadih hen; huai khit chiangin a kuan nading, a chi ua.

⁵⁵And her brother and her mother said, Let the damsel abide with us a few days, at the least ten; after that she shall go.

⁵⁶Huan, aman, a kiang uah, hon zekai sak kei dih ua, Toupan leh ka hohna ah hon lohching sakta ngala; ka pu kianga ka pai theihna dingin, honsawl zomai ve ua, achia.

⁵⁶And he said unto them, Hinder me not, seeing the LORD hath prospered my way; send me away that I may go to my master.

⁵⁷Huan, amau, naunu ka sam ding ua, amah kam mahmah kihoupih leh, a chi ua.

⁵⁷And they said, We will call the damsel, and inquire at her mouth.

⁵⁸Huchiin, Rebeka a sam ua a kiangah, hiai mipa kiangah na pai nuam maw a chi ua, huan, aman, pai nuam ve ning e, achia.

⁵⁸And they called Rebekah, and said unto her, Wilt thou go with this man? And she said, I will go.

⁵⁹Huchiin, a sanggamnu uh Rebeka leh, a donnu leh, Abraham sikha leh a lawite a paita uhi.

⁵⁹And they sent away Rebekah their sister, and her nurse, and Abraham's servant, and his men.

⁶⁰Huan, Rebeka a vualjawl ua, a kiangah, ka sanggamnu uh aw, nang sing ngenta sang tampi nu honghi inla, na suanten amau hote kulh kongkhak neihsak uhen, a chi ua.

⁶⁰And they blessed Rebekah, and said unto her, Thou art our sister, be thou the mother of thousands of millions, and let thy seed possess the gate of those which hate them.

⁶¹Huchiin, Rebeka a thoua, a sikhanute toh, sangawngsaute tungah a tuang ua, mi a juita uh; huchiin Abraham sikhain Rebeka a pi a, apaita.

⁶¹And Rebekah arose, and her damsels, and they rode upon the camels, and followed the man: and the servant took Rebekah, and went his way.

⁶²Huan, Isaak Beer-lahai-roi lam akipan a honga, Sim gama om ahi ngala,

⁶²And Isaac came from the way of the well Lahairoi; for he dwelt in the south country.

⁶³Huan, Isaak nitaklam pawnah kingaihtuah dingin a pawtkhia a: huan a daka, a ena, huan ngaiin, sangawngsau hongpaite a mu hi.

⁶³And Isaac went out to meditate in the field at the eventide: and he lifted up his eyes, and saw, and, behold, the camels were coming.

⁶⁴Huan, Rebeka a daka, Isaak a muhtakin sangawngsau tunga kipan a kuma.

⁶⁴And Rebekah lifted up her eyes, and when she saw Isaac, she lighted off the camel.

⁶⁵Huan, Abraham sikha kiangah, pawna hondawn dinga hongpai kua ahia? Achia. Huan, sikhain, ka pu eive, achia: huchiin a kikhuhna puan a laa, a kikhuhta hi.

⁶⁵For she had said unto the servant, What man is this that walketh in the field to meet us? And the servant had said, It is my master: therefore she took a vail, and covered herself.

⁶⁶Huan, sikhain a thilhih tengteng Isaak a hilha.Huan, Isaakin Rebeka a nu Sara puan in ah a pi luta, huan, Rebeka a la a, a ji a honghita a; huan amah a it mahmah a: huchiin Isaak a nu sih nungin leng a hong lungmuang theita hi.

⁶⁶And the servant told Isaac all things that he had done.

⁶⁷Huan, Isaakin Rebeka a nu Sara puan in ah a pi luta, huan, Rebeka a la a, a ji a honghita a; huan amah a it mahmah a: huchiin Isaak a nu sih nungin leng a hong lungmuang theita hi.

⁶⁷And Isaac brought her into his mother Sarah's tent, and took Rebekah, and she became his wife; and he loved her: and Isaac was comforted after his mother's death.
