Exodus 16 (TCZCHONG)

1Elim a kon'in Israel mipi akitol uvin Sin* kiti gammang lam hichu Elim le Sinai Mol kahlah ahiye. Hiche mun chu Egypt gamsung'a konna ahung potdoh kal'u lhani alhing tan, hiche lhasung nisom le ninga lhinin ahunglhung tauvin ahi.On the fifteenth day of the second month after they had left the land of Egypt, the whole congregation of Israel set out from Elim and came to the Desert of Sin, which is between Elim and Sinai.

2Hiche mun jenga jong chun Isreal mite Mose le Aaron heng'a aphunchel tauvin ahi.And there in the desert the whole congregation of Israel grumbled against Moses and Aaron.

3Ama hon aseiyun, “Kada tangei uve! Egypt gamsunga kana um laiyun saneh ding hihen changlhah hijongleh adimlha jeng jin, tun nangman hiche gamthip noiya hi kelthohsah a thigam sah ding nei got u hitam,” atiuve.“If only we had died by the LORD’s hand in the land of Egypt!” they said. “There we sat by pots of meat and ate our fill of bread, but you have brought us into this desert to starve this whole assembly to death!”

4Chuin Pakaijin Mose heng'a aseijin, “Vetan! Van’a konna keiman nangho ding ann kahin juhsah ding ahi. Nisim niseh a aneh diu adeichan'u aga kilo ding'u ahi. Hiche a hi amahon kathu angai angailou u kapatep diu ahi.Then the LORD said to Moses, “Behold, I will rain down bread from heaven for you. Each day the people are to go out and gather enough for that day. In this way I will test whether or not they will follow My instructions.

5Nigup lhinni teng keiman aneh khopset diuva anneh kahin peh ding ahiuve, hichu anehkhopset diu ajatnia tam hi ding ahi.”Then on the sixth day, when they prepare what they bring in, it will be twice as much as they gather on the other days.”

6Chuin Mose le Aaron in jong Israel mite heng'a aseipeh lhon tan, “Nilhah lam teng Egypt gamsung’a konna nahin puidoh pau chu koi ahi nahetdoh dingu ahi.So Moses and Aaron said to all the Israelites, “This evening you will know that it was the LORD who brought you out of the land of Egypt,

7“Chule jingkah lamteng Pakai loupina namu diu ahi, ajeh chu nangho nakiphin nau awgin Aman ajasoh tai, hichu Ama dia doumah um ahin, hichu keini chung'a doumahna neijin phun hihhel un, ati lhon'e.”and in the morning you will see the LORD’s glory, because He has heard your grumbling against Him. For who are we, that you should grumble against us?”

8Mose'n asei aseikit in, “Pakaijin nilhah lam'a naneh diu sa nahin peh diu, jingkah lama naneh diu changlhah nahin peh diu ahi, ajeh chu Pakaijin nangho na phunchel uva ama douna thu na seinau aja soh tai. Keini a kon ipi jeh a na kiphin'nu ham? Henge, na phunchel nau chu keini douna hilouvin, Pathen douna ahijoi,” ati lhon'eAnd Moses added, “The LORD will give you meat to eat this evening and bread to fill you in the morning, for He has heard your grumbling against Him. Who are we? Your grumblings are not against us but against the LORD.”

9Chuin Mose'n jong Aaron heng'a aseijin, “Israel mite jouse heng'a seipeh tem in: 'Nangma cheh Pakai angsung'a kipelut uvin, ajeh chu Aman nangho phunchelna ajahsoh ahitai, tin seiyin,'” ati.Then Moses said to Aaron, “Tell the whole congregation of Israel, ‘Come before the LORD, for He has heard your grumbling.’”

10Aaron in jong Isreal mite jouse heng'a aseijin ahile, ama hon gammang lah chu avele tauvin ahi. Ama hon Pathen loupina thil chu vanlam'a amu tauvin ahi.And as Aaron was speaking to the whole congregation of Israel, they looked toward the desert, and there in a cloud the glory of the LORD appeared.

11Chuin Pakaijin Mose heng'a aseijin,Then the LORD said to Moses,

12“Keiman Israel mite phunchelna ka jasoh tan ahi. Tun nangman aheng uvah seijin, 'Nilhah lamteng naneh diuva sa kahin peh ding nahiuvin chule jingkah lamteng naneh diuva changlhah kahin peh ding nahiuve. Chuteng nang hon keima hi na Pakai ule na Pathen'u kahi na hetdoh ding'u ahi,'” ati.“I have heard the grumbling of the Israelites. Tell them, ‘At twilight you will eat meat, and in the morning you will be filled with bread. Then you will know that I am the LORD your God.’”

13Hiche nilhah lam chun vamimte ahung kitol tauvin ahile ngahmun chu alo dimlha jeng tauve. Jingkah khovah ma chun ngahmun kimvel lah jouse chu daitwi jin ana chup in ahi.That evening quail came and covered the camp, and in the morning there was a layer of dew around the camp.

14Chuin daitwi ho chu ahung kihoh dohtan ahile, gammang lah akon chun thilpha tah khat alomlom chan ahung um tan, hichu abeh beh a kigol'in anaum'in ahi.When the layer of dew had evaporated, there were thin flakes on the desert floor, as fine as frost on the ground.

15Israel miten jong hichu ahin mudoh tauvin ahile, amaho akidongto cheh un, “Hiche hi ipi ahidem?” Ama hon ipi ahi chu ahedoh jou pouvin ahi. Chuin Mose'n ahilchen un, “Hiche hi neh ding'a Pakaijin napeh u ahi, ati.When the Israelites saw it, they asked one another, “What is it?” For they did not know what it was. So Moses told them, “It is the bread that the LORD has given you to eat.

16Hicheng hi Pakaijin aseije: Nangma insung cheh in naneh khopset diu kilah unlang, chule mikhat in vamim jatnia tamjo naponbuh sung uvah kichoi lut un,” ati.This is what the LORD has commanded: ‘Each one is to gather as much as he needs. You may take an omer for each person in your tent.’”

17Pakaijin athupeh bangin Israel mite'n jong abol tauvin ahi, kimkhat in tampi akichoiyun, akim khatma chun achoi khambep cheh akichoi uve.So the Israelites did this. Some gathered more, and some less.

18Ahinlah atetoh uvin ahileh, tamtah hin kilah ho ahin chule ama ding khambep hin kilah ho jong hiti chun, kitam lah chom leh kilhom lah chom um louvin; abonchauvin kitohchet chet in akihom uvin aki choiyuve.When they measured it by the omer, he who gathered much had no excess, and he who gathered little had no shortfall. Each one gathered as much as he needed to eat.

19Chuin Mose'n aheng uvah aseijin, “Jingkah khovah lhah channa ahalsi cha jeng jong nakoi lou diu ahi,” ati.Then Moses said to them, “No one may keep any of it until morning.”

20Kimkhat chun angaisah pouvin changlhah aneh moh uchu jingkah lam chanin akoiyun ahile, changlhah akoi den hou chu than achutan a uilha gamtai. Mose jong achung uva chun alunghang lheh tan ahi.But they did not listen to Moses; some people left part of it until morning, and it became infested with maggots and began to smell. So Moses was angry with them.

21Jingkah sih in mipiho chun aneh khop cheh diu changlhah chu aga kilo jiuvin, nisa ahungsat doh tengleh vang changlhah ho chu ajunmang jitan ahi.Every morning each one gathered as much as was needed, and when the sun grew hot, it melted away.

22Nigup lhinni tengleh changlhah chu achan jatbep cheh diuvin akilo uvin ahi. Khoppi lamkai ho ahungun ahilchen diuvin Mose adongun ahi.On the sixth day, they gathered twice as much food—two omers per person—and all the leaders of the congregation came and reported this to Moses.

23Aman aheng uvah aseijin, “Pakaijin hiti hin aseije: Jing nikho teng nangho nakicholdo diu ahi, ajeh chu Pakaiya dia Sabbath nikho theng ahi. Changlhah nakisem thei jat chan'u tunin kisem unlang, hiche ho chu jinglam'a ding jong kikoi doh tauvin,” ati.He told them, “This is what the LORD has said: ‘Tomorrow is to be a day of complete rest, a holy Sabbath to the LORD. So bake what you want to bake, and boil what you want to boil. Then set aside whatever remains and keep it until morning.’”

24Mose'n athupeh bang'un changlhah phabep chu achomin jingkah khovah chanin akoiyun ahi. Jingkah in changlhah ho chu ima ati tapon than jong chulouvin hoitah in ana um'e.So they set it aside until morning as Moses had commanded, and it did not smell or contain any maggots.

25Mose'n aseijin, “Hiche changlhah hi tunin neuvin, ajeh chu tunikho hi Pakaiya dia Sabbath ahi. Ajeh chu tollhamma changlhah umlou ding ahiye,” ati.“Eat it today,” Moses said, “because today is a Sabbath to the LORD. Today you will not find anything in the field.

26Nigup sung'a changlhah nakilo cheh diu, ahin nisagi ni chu Sabbath ahi. Hiche nikho a chu an umlou ding ahi,” ati.For six days you may gather, but on the seventh day, the Sabbath, it will not be there.”

27Kim khat chu Sabbath nikhon changlhah kilo din acheuvin, hinlah changlhah khat jeng cha jong amu tapouve.Yet on the seventh day some of the people went out to gather, but they did not find anything.

28Pakaijin Mose heng'a aseijin, “Hiche mite hin itih chan ka thupeh apalkeh diu hitam?Then the LORD said to Moses, “How long will you refuse to keep My commandments and instructions?

29Ama hon ageldoh diu chu Sabbath nikho hi Pakaiya kon ahin Aman eipeh u ahiye. Hijeh a chu Pakajin nigup sung'in changlhah neh ding na peuvin, nigup lhinni man nini sung'a neh ding changlhah na peuve. Nalah uva koi hijongleu chun na umna cheh uva umthim beh jeng uvin lang,’ nisagi lhinni teng koimacha achenna mun'a kon'in pamlama potda jeng tahen,” ati.Understand that the LORD has given you the Sabbath; that is why on the sixth day He will give you bread for two days. On the seventh day, everyone must stay where he is; no one may leave his place.”

30Chuti chun nisagi lhinni’n koiman an agaloh tapouvin ahi.So the people rested on the seventh day.

31Israel miten changlhah chu Manna asah tauvin ahi. Hichu muchi mu tobang bang ahin, atui dan jong khoiju tobang ahiye.Now the house of Israel called the bread manna. It was white like coriander seed and tasted like wafers made with honey.

32Mose'n asei in, “Pakai thupeh chu hiche hi ahiye: Nakhang lhumkei uva um jing dingin manna kihamdoh cheh uvin, hichu nakhang lhumkei uva mite hon Egypt gamsung'a konna kahin pui uva gamthip lah a manna a kahin vah nau ahidan ahetdoh thei ding'u ahi,” ati.Moses said, “This is what the LORD has commanded: ‘Keep an omer of manna for the generations to come, so that they may see the bread I fed you in the wilderness when I brought you out of the land of Egypt.’”

33Mose'n jong Aaron heng'a aseijin, “Belneo khat latem'in asung'a chun manna phabep khat khum'in. Hichu akhang akhang'a um jing dia Pakai ansung munthenga nagakoi ding ahi,” ati.So Moses told Aaron, “Take a jar and fill it with an omer of manna. Then place it before the LORD to be preserved for the generations to come.”

34Pakaijin Mose athupeh bangin Aaron in jong aboltan ahi. Pakai angsunga akhang akhang'a hettohsah a pang dingin Kitepna Thingkhong maiya chun akoi tan ahi.And Aaron placed it in front of the Testimony, to be preserved just as the LORD had commanded Moses.

35Israel mite'n jong achenna diu mun ahin phah kahseuvin, kum somli sung sen manna jeng ahin neuvin, Canaan gam ahung lhun kahse uva dingin manna jeng chu ahin netauvin ahi.The Israelites ate manna forty years, until they came to a land where they could settle; they ate manna until they reached the border of Canaan.

36Manna Omer dimkhat chu Ephah khat seh hopsom'a hop khat toh aki bangin ahi.(Now an omer is a tenth of an ephah.)
