¹Now Yahweh said to Abram, “Get out of your country, and from your relatives, and from your father’s house, to the land that I will show you.

¹Huan, Toupan, Abram kiangah, na kha lama kipan leh na tanaute laka kipan leh na pa in akipan pawt inla, gam ka honetsak ding lamah pain:

²I will make of you a great nation. I will bless you and make your name great. You will be a blessing.

²Huchiin, chi thupi mahmahin ka honbawl dinga, vual ka hon jawl dinga, na min ka hih thupi ding; huan, nang vualjawlna hiin:

³I will bless those who bless you, and I will curse him who curses you. All of the families of the earth will be blessed in you.”

³Huan, nang hon vualjawl peuhmah ka vualjawla dinga, hon hamsiat peuhmah ka hamsiat ding: nangah leia nam chih a nuamsa ding uh, achia.

⁴So Abram went, as Yahweh had spoken to him. Lot went with him. Abram was seventy-five years old when he departed out of Haran.

⁴Huchiin Abram Toupan a kianga a gen bangin a kuantaa; Lota leng a kiangah a kuan sam hi: huan, Abram Haran khua akipan a pawt laiin kum sawm sagih leh kum nga a upa ahi.

⁵Abram took Sarai his wife, Lot his brother’s son, all their substance that they had gathered, and the souls whom they had gotten in Haran, and they went to go into the land of Canaan. Into the land of Canaan they came.

⁵Huan, Abramin a ji Sarai leh, a nau tapa Lota leh, a sum kaihkhawm tengteng uh leh, Haran khua a a mi neihte tengteng uh a pi a; Kanan gam a hoh dingin a pawtta ua; huan, Kanan gam a tungta uhi.

⁶Abram passed through the land to the place of Shechem, to the oak of Moreh. The Canaanite was then in the land.

⁶Huan, Abram huai gamah Sekem mun phain, Moreh tosaw tanin, a pai jela. Huailaiin, Kanante huai gamah a om uh.

⁷Yahweh appeared to Abram and said, “I will give this land to your seed or, offspring .” He built an altar there to Yahweh, who appeared to him.

⁷Huan, Toupa Abram kiangah a kilaka, hiai gam na suante kiangah ka pe ding, achia: huchiin, huailaiah, a kianga kilak Toupa adingin, maitam a dohta hi.

⁸He left from there to the mountain on the east of Bethel, and pitched his tent, having Bethel on the west, and Ai on the east. There he built an altar to Yahweh and called on the name of Yahweh.

⁸Huan, huai a kipanin Bethel suahlam a tang ah a kisuana, huai laiah a puanin a kaita a, a tumlamah Bethel a oma, a suahlamah Ai khua a om hi: huailaiah Toupa a dingin maitam a doh nawna. Toupa min a lou hi.

⁹Abram traveled, going on still toward the South.

⁹Huan, Abram Sim gam lam juanin a kisuan lailai hi.

¹⁰There was a famine in the land. Abram went down into Egypt to live as a foreigner there, for the famine was severe in the land.

¹⁰Huan, huai gamah kial a keta a: huan, huai gam a nak kial mahmah jiak un, Abram Aigupta gama om tadih dingin a paisukta.

¹¹It happened, when he had come near to enter Egypt, that he said to Sarai his wife, “See now, I know that you are a beautiful woman to look at.

¹¹Huan, hichi ahia, Aigupta gam a lut dinga a kisak laiun, a ji Sarai kiangah, ngaiin, numei melhoih tak na hi chih ka thei hi:

¹²It will happen, when the Egyptians will see you, that they will say, ‘This is his wife.’ They will kill me, but they will save you alive.

¹²Huchiin, hichi ahi ding Aiguptaten nang a honmuh ding un, hiai a ji eive, a chi ding ua: huan, kei a hon that mai ding uh, nang bel a honhawi ding uh.

¹³Please say that you are my sister, that it may be well with me for your sake, and that my soul may live because of you.”

¹³Nang jiaka hoih taka ka om theihna dingin leh nang vanga ka hin theihna dingin, asanggamnu ka hi, hehpihtakin chi jelin a chi hi.

¹⁴It happened that when Abram had come into Egypt, the Egyptians saw that the woman was very beautiful.

¹⁴Huan, hichi ahi a, Abram Aigupta gam alut leh, Aiguptaten numei a mu ua, a mel hoih a sa mahmah ua.

¹⁵The princes of Pharaoh saw her, and praised her to Pharaoh; and the woman was taken into Pharaoh’s house.

¹⁵Pharo mi lianten leng a mu ua, Pharo kiangah a hoihdan a gen uh: huchiin, numei Pharo in ah a pi lutta uh.

¹⁶He dealt well with Abram for her sake. He had sheep, cattle, male donkeys, male servants, female servants, female donkeys, and camels.

¹⁶Huan, aman Sarai jiakin Abram hoih takin a hiha: huchiin belamte, bawngte, sabengtungpate, sikhapate, sikhanute, sabengtungnute, sangawngsaute a neih lohta hi.

¹⁷Yahweh plagued Pharaoh and his house with great plagues because of Sarai, Abram’s wife.

¹⁷Huan, Toupan Abram ji Sarai jiakin Pharo leh a inkuante bawl namaiin a bawlta kei hi.

¹⁸Pharaoh called Abram and said, “What is this that you have done to me? Why didn’t you tell me that she was your wife?

¹⁸Huchiin, Pharoin Abram a sama, ka tunga na thilhih bangchidan a maia? Na ji ahi chih bang dia honhilh lou na hia? Ka sanggam nu ahi, bangdia chi na hia?

¹⁹Why did you say, ‘She is my sister,’ so that I took her to be my wife? Now therefore, see your wife, take her, and go your way.”

¹⁹Huaijiakin akeimaw ka ji dinga ka naneih hial: ahihleh, tuin enin na ji, pi inla, pai mangin, achia.Huan Pharoin a tungthu ah mi kiangah thu a piaa, huchiin amah a vakhata ua, a ji toh, a neih tengteng toh.

²⁰Pharaoh commanded men concerning him, and they brought him on the way with his wife and all that he had.

²⁰Huan Pharoin a tungthu ah mi kiangah thu a piaa, huchiin amah a vakhata ua, a ji toh, a neih tengteng toh.
