¹Yahweh said to Moses, “Go in to Pharaoh, for I have hardened his heart, and the heart of his servants, that I may show these my signs in their midst,

¹Huan TOUPAN Mosi kiangah, Pharo kiangah lut in: amaa hiai ka chiamtehnate ka ensak theihna dingin a lungtang ka khauhsaka, a sikhate lungtang toh:

²and that you may tell in the hearing of your son, and of your son’s son, what things I have done to Egypt, and my signs which I have done among them; that you may know that I am Yahweh.”

²Huchia na tapa bil leh, na tapa tapa bila, Aigupta gama bang thil ahia ka bawl, a lak ua chiamtehna ka hihte na gen theiha TOUPA ka hi chih na theihna ding un, a chi a.

³Moses and Aaron went in to Pharaoh, and said to him, “This is what Yahweh, the God of the Hebrews, says: ‘How long will you refuse to humble yourself before me? Let my people go, that they may serve me.

³Huan Mosi lah Aron Pharo kiangah a lut ua, a kiangah, Hebrute TOUPA Pathianin hichibangin a chi, Bangtan vei ka maa kiniamkhiak nial ding na hia? Ka na a sep thihna ding un, ka mite paisakin.

⁴Or else, if you refuse to let my people go, behold, tomorrow I will bring locusts into your country,

⁴Huchi a hihkei a, ka mite paisak na nial leh, ngaiin, na tuipiau ah jingchiangin khaukhup ka hon la ding hi:

⁵and they shall cover the surface of the earth, so that one won’t be able to see the earth. They shall eat the residue of that which has escaped, which remains to you from the hail, and shall eat every tree which grows for you out of the field.

⁵Huan lei mai a tuam ding ua, huchiin min lei a mu theikei ding; a suakta bang a ne ding ua, gialin a honhawisak teng, lou a kipana nang dinga sing poute chiteng a ne ding uh:

⁶Your houses shall be filled, and the houses of all your servants, and the houses of all the Egyptians; as neither your fathers nor your fathers’ fathers have seen, since the day that they were on the earth to this day.’” He turned, and went out from Pharaoh.

⁶Huan na inte uah a dim ding ua, na sikhate tengteng inte, leh Aigupta tengteng in; leitunga a om ua kipan tuni tan na pate, na pa uh pate un a muh ngeilouh uh, a chi ua. Huchiin a kiheia, Pharo akipanin a pawt kheta hi.

⁷Pharaoh’s servants said to him, “How long will this man be a snare to us? Let the men go, that they may serve Yahweh, their God. Don’t you yet know that Egypt is destroyed?”

⁷Huan Pharo sikhaten a kiangah, Bangtan hiai mipa ei dia thang hi ding ahia? Mite paisak in, TOUPA a Pathian uh na a sem thiehna ding un: Aigupta suksiatin a om chih thei nailou na hi hia? A chi ua.

⁸Moses and Aaron were brought again to Pharaoh, and he said to them, “Go, serve Yahweh your God; but who are those who will go?”

⁸Mosi leh Aron Pharo kiangah a honpi nawn ua; aman a kiang uah, Pai un, TOUPA na Pathian uh na sem un: ahihhangin a pai dingtekuate ahi ua? A chi a.

⁹Moses said, “We will go with our young and with our old; with our sons and with our daughters, with our flocks and with our herds will we go; for we must hold a feast to Yahweh.”

⁹Huan Mosiin, Ka naupangte u toh, ka tekte utoh, ka tapate uleh ka tanute uh, ka ganhonte u leh ka belamhonte utoh ka pai ding uh; TOUPA kianga ankuangluina neiding ka hih jiak un, a chi a.

¹⁰He said to them, “Yahweh be with you if I will let you go with your little ones! See, evil is clearly before your faces.

¹⁰Huan aman a kiang uah, Huchibangin TOUPA na kianguah om hen, kon paisak bangin, leh na naute uh: kiveng un, na ma uah gilou a om jiakin.

¹¹Not so! Go now you who are men, and serve Yahweh; for that is what you desire!” They were driven out from Pharaoh’s presence.

¹¹Huchi hi lou e: nou pasal pichingteng kuan unlan, TOUPA na vasem un; huai lah na ut ngal ua, a chi a. Huchiin Pharo maa kipan delhkhiakin a omta uhi.

¹²Yahweh said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand over the land of Egypt for the locusts, that they may come up on the land of Egypt, and eat every herb of the land, even all that the hail has left.”

¹²Huchiin TOUPAN Mosi kiangah, Aigupta gam tungah khaukhupte a dingin na khut zan khiain, Aigupta gam a hongpai touh ua, gama haichi teng, gial nutsiatte nei, a nek theihna ding un, a chi a.

¹³Moses stretched out his rod over the land of Egypt, and Yahweh brought an east wind on the land all that day, and all the night; and when it was morning, the east wind brought the locusts.

¹³Huan Mosiin achiang Aigupta gam tungah a lika, huan TOUPAN huai ni nitumin leh huai jankhuain suahlam huih a nungsaka; jingsang a honghihin suahlam huihin khaukhup a hontunta hi.

¹⁴The locusts went up over all the land of Egypt, and rested in all the borders of Egypt. They were very grievous. Before them there were no such locusts as they, neither after them shall be such.

¹⁴Huchiin Aigupta gam tengteng tungah khaukhupte a paitou ua, Aigupta tuipiau tengah a khawl ua: chimtakhuai mahmah uhi; ama lam uah huchibang khaukhup amau bangin a om keia, anunglam un leng huchibang a om samkei ding hi.

¹⁵For they covered the surface of the whole earth, so that the land was darkened, and they ate every herb of the land, and all the fruit of the trees which the hail had left. There remained nothing green, either tree or herb of the field, through all the land of Egypt.

¹⁵Lei mai tengteng a tum jiak un, gam a mialta hi; huan gama haichi chih a ne ua, gialin a hawi singte gahte teng toh: huchiin singte ah hiam, loua haichite ah hiam zong thil hing a omte keia, Aigupta gamsung tengah.

¹⁶Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron in haste, and he said, “I have sinned against Yahweh your God, and against you.

¹⁶Huaitakin Pharoin kintakin Mosi leh Aron a sam saka; TOUPA na Pathian leh nou tungah ka khialta hi,

¹⁷Now therefore please forgive my sin again, and pray to Yahweh your God, that he may also take away from me this death.”

¹⁷Huaijiakin tuin, kon ngen hi, hiai tutunga lel ka khelhna ngaidam inla, hiai sihna kia keia kipana a lakmang theihna dingin, TOUPA na Pathian ngen in, achia a.

¹⁸He went out from Pharaoh, and prayed to Yahweh.

¹⁸Huchiin Pharo a kipanin a paikhetaa, TOUPA a ngenta.

¹⁹Yahweh turned an exceeding strong west wind, which took up the locusts, and drove them into the Red Sea or, Sea of Reeds . There remained not one locust in all the borders of Egypt.

¹⁹Huan TOUPAN suahlam huih hat mahmah a khahtaa, huaiin khaukhupte a lamanga, Tuipi San ah a lawn lutta; huchiin Aigupta luipiau tengteng ah khaukhup khat leng a omta kei hi.

²⁰But Yahweh hardened Pharaoh’s heart, and he didn’t let the children of Israel go.

²⁰Ahihhangin TOUPAN Pharo lungtang a khauh saka, huchiin Israel suante a paisak nuamta kei hi.

²¹Yahweh said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand toward the sky, that there may be darkness over the land of Egypt, even darkness which may be felt.”

²¹Huan TOUPAN Mosi kiangah, Aigupta gam tunga khomial a omtheihna dingin, khomial theih theih ding ngei, van lam ah na khut lik khiain, a chi a.

²²Moses stretched out his hand toward the sky, and there was a thick darkness in all the land of Egypt three days.

²²Huan Mosiin vanlam ah a khut lik a khiaa; huchiin ni thum Aigupta gam tengteng ah khomial bikbek a omta hi:

²³They didn’t see one another, neither did anyone rise from his place for three days; but all the children of Israel had light in their dwellings.

²³Akuakuamah a kimu kei ua, a omna a kipanin ni thum kuamah a thou kei uh: a hihhangin Israel suante tengtengin a tenna uah vakna nei uhi.

²⁴Pharaoh called to Moses, and said, “Go, serve Yahweh. Only let your flocks and your herds stay behind. Let your little ones also go with you.”

²⁴Huan Pharo in Mosi a sama, pai un, Toupa na sem un; na bawnghonte uleh na ganhonte uh kia om uhen: na naute un leng hon jui uhen, a chi a.

²⁵Moses said, “You must also give into our hand sacrifices and burnt offerings, that we may sacrifice to Yahweh our God.

²⁵Huan Mosiin, TOUPA ka pathian uh kianga ka kithoih theihna ding un, kithoihnate leh halmang thillate leng na honpiak ngeingei ding ahi.

²⁶Our livestock also shall go with us. Not a hoof shall be left behind, for of it we must take to serve Yahweh our God; and we don’t know with what we must serve Yahweh, until we come there.”

²⁶Ka bawnghonte un leng a honzuih ding uh ahi; nunglamah chin khat lel leng nawtsiat louh ding; huaite akipana TOUPA ka Pathian uh nasepna dia ka lak ding uh a hihjiakin; tualai ka tun masiah uh, bangin ahia TOUPA na ka sep ding uh ka theikei uh, a chi hi.

²⁷But Yahweh hardened Pharaoh’s heart, and he wouldn’t let them go.

²⁷A hihhangin TOUPAN Pharo lungtang a khausaka, amau a pai sak nuam kei hi.

²⁸Pharaoh said to him, “Get away from me! Be careful to see my face no more; for in the day you see my face you shall die!”

²⁸Huchiin Pharoin a kiangah, Ka kianga kipan paimang in, kiveng in, ka mel mu nawn ken; ka mel na muh ninia si ding na hih jiakin, a chi a.Huan, Mosiin, Na gen hoih e, na mel ka mu nawnta kei dinghi, a chi hi.

²⁹Moses said, “You have spoken well. I will see your face again no more.”

²⁹Huan, Mosiin, Na gen hoih e, na mel ka mu nawnta kei dinghi, a chi hi.
