¹And when Rachel saw that she bare Jacob no children, Rachel envied her sister; and said unto Jacob, Give me children, or else I die.

²Huan, Rakil tungah Jakob a heh guih a: huchiin, na gila gah phallou Pathian sik a ka hi ahia? Achia.

²And Jacob's anger was kindled against Rachel: and he said, Am I in God's stead, who hath withheld from thee the fruit of the womb?

³Huan, aman, enin, ka sikha nu Bilha, amah kithuahpih in; huchiin ken leng amah a kipan a tate ka neihsam theih na dingin ka phei tungah ta honnei ding ahi, achia.

³And she said, Behold my maid Bilhah, go in unto her; and she shall bear upon my knees, that I may also have children by her.

⁴Huchiin, a sikha nu Bilha a ji dingin a pia a: huan, Jakob in amah ana kithuahpih a.

⁴And she gave him Bilhah her handmaid to wife: and Jacob went in unto her.

⁵Huan, Bilha a gai a Jakob ta a neihsak ta.

⁵And Bilhah conceived, and bare Jacob a son.

⁶Huan, Rakil in, Pathian in a hon ngaihtuah a ka aw leng a ja a, tapa honpia ahi, achi: huaijaikin amin dingin Dan a sa a.

⁶And Rachel said, God hath judged me, and hath also heard my voice, and hath given me a son: therefore called she his name Dan.

⁷Huan, Rakil sikha nu Bilha a gai nawna, Jakob tapa dang a neihsak nawn a.

⁷And Bilhah Rachel's maid conceived again, and bare Jacob a second son.

⁸Huan, Rakil in Pathian buan in ka sanggam nu ka buan a ka jouta, achia: huchiin a min dingin Napthtali a sa a.

⁸And Rachel said, With great wrestlings have I wrestled with my sister, and I have prevailed: and she called his name Naphtali.

¹³And Leah said, Happy am I, for the daughters will call me blessed: and she called his name Asher.

¹⁴Huan, a buh lak laiin Reuben in jawl ai gamlak ah ava mu a; anu Lea kiangah hon tawi a. Huchiin, Rakil in Lea kiangah, hehpihtak in na tapa jawlai a khen honpe dih ve, achia.

¹⁴And Reuben went in the days of wheat harvest, and found mandrakes in the field, and brought them unto his mother Leah. Then Rachel said to Leah, Give me, I pray thee, of thy son's mandrakes.

¹⁵Huan, aman, ka kiangah, ka pasal non suh thil duai ahi hia? ka tapa jawl ai leng hon suh na tum nawn lai maw? Achia. Huan, Rakil in, ahihkeileh, n tapa jawl ai sikin tu jan in a hon lupih ding achia.

¹⁵And she said unto her, Is it a small matter that thou hast taken my husband? and wouldest thou take away my son's mandrakes also? And Rachel said, Therefore he shall lie with thee to night for thy son's mandrakes.

¹⁶Huan, nitaklam in Jakob gamlak a kipan hong tunga, huan Lea a dawn dingin a kuan a, non kithuahpih ding ahi; ka tapa jawl ai in kon khel ta ngal a achia. Huchiin, huai jan in a lupih ta hi.

¹⁶And Jacob came out of the field in the evening, and Leah went out to meet him, and said, Thou must come in unto me; for surely I have hired thee with my son's mandrakes. And he lay with her that night.

¹⁷Huan, Pathian in Lea thumna a ngaikhia a, huchiin a gaia, Jakob tapa ngana a neihsak nawna.

¹⁷And God hearkened unto Leah, and she conceived, and bare Jacob the fifth son.

¹⁸Huan, Lea in, ka sikha nu ka pasal kianga ka piak jiakin Pathianin ka loh honpia eive, achia; huchiin a min dingin Essakar a sa hi.

¹⁸And Leah said, God hath given me my hire, because I have given my maiden to my husband: and she called his name Issachar.

¹⁹Huan, Lea a gai nawna, Jakob tapa gukna a neihsak nawna.

¹⁹And Leah conceived again, and bare Jacob the sixth son.

²⁰Huan, Lea in, Pathianin van hoih tak a hon neisak a; tuin jaw ka pasal, tapa guk ka neihsak tak jiakin, ka kiangah a teng ta ding, achia: huchiin, amin dingin Zebulun a sa a.

²⁰And Leah said, God hath endued me with a good dowry; now will my husband dwell with me, because I have born him six sons: and she called his name Zebulun.

²¹Huan, huai nungin tanu a nei nawna, amin dingin Dina a sa hi.

²¹And afterwards she bare a daughter, and called her name Dinah.

²²Huan, Pathianin Rakil a theigige a, huchiin Pathianin a thumna a ngaikhia a, a sul a honsak hi.

²²And God remembered Rachel, and God hearkened to her, and opened her womb.

²³Huchiin a gaia, tapa a neia: Pathianin ka minsia a la mang, achia:

²³And she conceived, and bare a son; and said, God hath taken away my reproach:

²⁴Huan, Toupan tapa dang honpiak beh hen, chiin, a min dingin Joseph a sa hi.

²⁴And she called his name Joseph; and said, The LORD shall add to me another son.

²⁵Huan, hichi ahia, Rakil in Joseph a neih nungin Jakob in, Laban kiangah, kei ka omna ngei ah, ka gam lam ua ka pai na dingin hon paisak ta in aw.

²⁵And it came to pass, when Rachel had born Joseph, that Jacob said unto Laban, Send me away, that I may go unto mine own place, and to my country.

²⁶Na na ka sep san ka jite leh ka tate honpia inla, hon paisakin: na na kon sepsak dan leh na thei ngala, achia.

²⁶Give me my wives and my children, for whom I have served thee, and let me go: for thou knowest my service which I have done thee.

²⁷Huan, Laban in, a kiangah, na honhehpih theih leh, om tadih lai ve: Toupan nang vangin a honvualjawl chih aisan in ka thei hi, achia.

²⁷And Laban said unto him, I pray thee, if I have found favor in thine eyes, tarry: for I have learned by experience that the LORD hath blessed me for thy sake.

²⁸Huan, amah mahin, na loh ding sep inla, honhilh dih, huchiin ka honpe ding hi, achia.

²⁸And he said, Appoint me thy wages, and I will give it.

²⁹Huan, aman, a kiangah, bangchin na na ka sema, bangchin na gan ka kiangah a om ua na thei akei hiam.

²⁹And he said unto him, Thou knowest how I have served thee, and how thy cattle was with me.

³⁰Ka hong main tawm chik kia na neia, tuin jaw tampi a hong phata uhi; ka kalsuanna lam peuh ah Toupan nang a honvualjawl jel hi: Ahihhangin chik chiangin ahia kei inkuante adia ka sep khiak sam ding? Achia.

³⁰For it was little which thou hadst before I came, and it is now increased unto a multitude; and the LORD hath blessed thee since my coming: and now when shall I provide for mine own house also?

³¹Huan, aman, bang ka hon pe dia? Achia. Huan, Jakobin, bangmah na honpiak ding ahi kei: Hiai thil na hon hihsak leh na gan hon ka khah dia ka ching nawn ding.

³¹And he said, What shall I give thee? And Jacob said, Thou shalt not give me any thing: if thou wilt do this thing for me, I will again feed and keep thy flock.

³²Tuniin na gan hon ka va enkhe vek dia, belam laka a vom gial petmah a gial leh a voma gial zekzek leh a vom peuhmah, kel laka a kanga gial petmah a gial leh a kanga gial zekzek te huaia kipan ka pi tuam jel dinga: huan, tuban huchibanga hong piang peuhmah ka loh ding ahi takei dia leh.

³²I will pass through all thy flock to day, removing from thence all the speckled and spotted cattle, and all the brown cattle among the sheep, and the spotted and speckled among the goats: and of such shall be my hire.

³³Huchiin, tuban, na mit muha khelha ka omna thuah na hongpai hun chiangin, ka diktatna in a hondawnsak mai ding: kel laka a kanga gial petmah a gial lou leh, a kanga gial zekzek lou leh, belam laka a vom lou ka kianga na muh peuhpeuh ka guk in na sep mai ding ahi, achia.

³³So shall my righteousness answer for me in time to come, when it shall come for my hire before thy face: every one that is not speckled and spotted among the goats, and brown among the sheep, that shall be counted stolen with me.

³⁴Huan, Labanin, ngaiin, na gen bang tak hile ake, achia.

³⁴And Laban said, Behold, I would it might be according to thy word.

³⁵Huchiin, huai nitak in kel tal a kanga gial tan leh a kanga gial zekzek teng leh, kelnu a kanga gial petmah a gial leh a kanga gial zekzek teng a kanna om peuhmah, belam, belam laka a vom tengteng toh a pi tuama, a tapate khut ah a pia a;

³⁵And he removed that day the he goats that were ring-streaked and spotted, and all the she goats that were speckled and spotted, and every one that had some white in it, and all the brown among the sheep, and gave them into the hand of his sons.

³⁶Huan, amah leh Jakob kalah ni thum lam a om saka; huan, Jakobin Laban ganhon dang tengteng a khah nawnta.

³⁶And he set three days' journey betwixt himself and Jacob: and Jacob fed the rest of Laban's flocks.

³⁷Huan, Jakobin hiangjau sing leh makha sing leh sesing chiang hing a laa, a hawng a khok ngou chiata, chiangte ah a ngoute a kilangsaka.

³⁷And Jacob took him rods of green poplar, and of the hazel and chestnut tree; and pilled white streaks in them, and made the white appear which was in the rods.

³⁸Huan, achiang hawng khohte gan honten, a hong dawn jelna tuikuangte ah, tui luannate ah, gan honte ma jawn jelah a koihta; huan, tui dawn dinga a hongpai chiang ua a gaina ding un.

³⁸And he set the rods which he had pilled before the flocks in the gutters in the watering troughs when the flocks came to drink, that they should conceive when they came to drink.

³⁹Huchiin, ganhonte chiang jawnah a gai panta ua, a gial tante, gial petmah a gialte, a gial zekzek te a honnei jel uh.

³⁹And the flocks conceived before the rods, and brought forth cattle ring-streaked, speckled, and spotted.

⁴⁰Huan, Jakob in belamnou te khawng a koih tuma, huan, ganhonte Laban gan hon laka a gial tan leh a vom tengteng lam a ngasak jela; amah gan honte a koih tuam jela, Laban gan lakah a koih kei.

⁴⁰And Jacob did separate the lambs, and set the faces of the flocks toward the ring-streaked, and all the brown in the flock of Laban; and he put his own flocks by themselves, and put them not unto Laban's cattle.

⁴¹Huan, hichi ahi a, gan hat deuhte a hong gai pat peuh chiang un chiang laka a gai pat theihna ding un, Jakob in tui luanna ah, gan mitmuhin, chiangte a koih jela;

⁴¹And it came to pass, whensoever the stronger cattle did conceive, that Jacob laid the rods before the eyes of the cattle in the gutters, that they might conceive among the rods.

⁴²Ahihhangin gan a hat kei leh, a koih kei jel: huchiin a nou hat lou deuhte jaw Laban a ahi jela, a hat deuhta bel Jakob a ahi jel hi.Huchiin, Jakob nakpiin a hongpung a, ganhon hon thupi tak, sikhanute, sikhapate, sangawngsaute, sabengtungte a neita hi.

⁴²But when the cattle were feeble, he put them not in: so the feebler were Laban's, and the stronger Jacob's.

⁴³Huchiin, Jakob nakpiin a hongpung a, ganhon hon thupi tak, sikhanute, sikhapate, sangawngsaute, sabengtungte a neita hi.

⁴³And the man increased exceedingly, and had much cattle, and maidservants, and menservants, and camels, and asses.
