And it shall come to pass, if thou shalt hearken diligently unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to observe [and] to do all his commandments which I command thee this day, that the LORD thy God will set thee on high above all nations of the earth:

2 Na Angraeng Sithaw ih lok na tahngai o nahaeloe, hae tahamhoihaihnawk boih na nuiah pha ueloe, nangcae khaeah om poe tih.

And all these blessings shall come on thee, and overtake thee, if thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God.

3 Vangpui thungah taham na hoih o ueloe, lawk ah doeh taham na hoih o tih.

Blessed [shalt] thou [be] in the city, and blessed [shalt] thou [be] in the field.

4 To tahamhoihaih loe na zok hoiah athaih tacawthaih hoi na lawk ah thingthai kapop ah athaihaih hae ni, maitaw caanawk pung o ueloe, tuu khongkha thung ih tuu caanawk doeh pung o tih.

Blessed [shall be] the fruit of thy body, and the fruit of thy ground, and the fruit of thy cattle, the increase of thy kine, and the flocks of thy sheep.

5 Benthang hoi hmuen na suek o haih ahmuen doeh tahamhoih o tih.

Blessed [shall be] thy basket and thy store.

6 A thungah na kun o moe, tasa bangah na caeh o naah doeh taham na hoih o tih.

Blessed [shalt] thou [be] when thou comest in, and blessed [shalt] thou [be] when thou goest out.

The LORD shall cause thine enemies that rise up against thee to be smitten before thy face: they shall come out against thee one way, and flee before thee seven ways.

8 Hmuenmae na suek o haih ahmuen, na ban hoi sak ih hmuenawk boih nuiah Angraeng mah tahamhoihaih na paek o tih; na Angraeng Sithaw mah paek ih prae thungah tahamhoihaih na paek o tih.

The LORD shall command the blessing upon thee in thy storehouses, and in all that thou settest thine hand unto; and he shall bless thee in the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee.

9 Na Angraeng Sithaw ih lok na tahngaih o moe, a loklam ah na caeh o nahaeloe, Angraeng mah nangcae khaeah lokkam ih baktih toengah, angmah ih ciimcai kami ah na suem tih.

The LORD shall establish thee an holy people unto himself, as he hath sworn unto thee, if thou shalt keep the commandments of the LORD thy God, and walk in his ways.

10 To naah nangcae loe Angraeng ih ahmin hoiah kawk ih kami ni, tiah long pum ih kaminawk boih mah hnu o tih; to naah nihcae mah nangcae to zii tih.

And all people of the earth shall see that thou art called by the name of the LORD; and they shall be afraid of thee.

And the LORD shall make thee plenteous in goods, in the fruit of thy body, and in the fruit of thy cattle, and in the fruit of thy ground, in the land which the LORD sware unto thy fathers to give thee.

12 Na Angraeng Sithaw mah atue phak naah kho angzohsak moe, na ban hoi sak ih hmuennawk boih tahamhoihaih paek hanah, angmah ih hmuen suekhaih ahmuen ah kaom, van thok to paong ueloe, kho angzosak tih; nangcae loe minawk khaeah na coi o mak ai, toe nangcae mah ni pop parai kaminawk coisak hanah na paek o tih.

The LORD shall open unto thee his good treasure, the heaven to give the rain unto thy land in his season, and to bless all the work of thine hand: and thou shalt lend unto many nations, and thou shalt not borrow.

13 Angraeng mah tamaai ah na omsak mak ai, lu ah ni na suem tih; vaihniah kang paek ih, na Angraeng Sithaw ih loknawk to pazui moe, sak hanah lok na tahngaih o nahaeloe, atlim ah na om o mak ai, ranuiah khue ni na om o tih;

And the LORD shall make thee the head, and not the tail; and thou shalt be above only, and thou shalt not be beneath; if that thou hearken unto the commandments of the LORD thy God, which I command thee this day, to observe and to do [them: ]

14 vaihniah kang paek o ih lok hae banqoi bantang nam khraeng o taak ai, kalah sithawnawk hnukah doeh na bang o ai moe, a tok doeh na sah pae o ai nahaeloe, to baktih tahamhoihaih to na hnu o tih.

And thou shalt not go aside from any of the words which I command thee this day, [to] the right hand, or [to] the left, to go after other gods to serve them.

15 Toe na Angraeng Sithaw ih lok to na tahngai o ai; vaihniah kang paek o ih a loknawk hoi anih ih kaaloknawk to na pazui o ai, sak hanah lok doeh na tahngai o ai nahaeloe, hae tangoenghaih loknawk hae nangcae nuiah krah tih.

But it shall come to pass, if thou wilt not hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to observe to do all his commandments and his statutes which I command thee this day; that all these curses shall come upon thee, and overtake thee:

16 Vangpui ah tangoenghaih na tong o ueloe, lawk ah doeh tangoenghaih na tong o tih.

Cursed [shalt] thou [be] in the city, and cursed [shalt] thou [be] in the field.

17 Nangmah ih benthang hoi hmuen suekhaih ahmuen ah doeh, tangoenghaih to om tih.

Cursed [shall be] thy basket and thy store.

Cursed [shall be] the fruit of thy body, and the fruit of thy land, the increase of thy kine, and the flocks of thy sheep.

Cursed [shalt] thou [be] when thou comest in, and cursed [shalt] thou [be] when thou goest out.

The LORD shall send upon thee cursing, vexation, and rebuke, in all that thou settest thine hand unto for to do, until thou be destroyed, and until thou perish quickly; because of the wickedness of thy doings, whereby thou hast forsaken me.

21 Toep han na caeh ih prae thung hoiah amrosak boih ai karoek to, Angraeng mah na nuiah nathaih to phasak tih.

The LORD shall make the pestilence cleave unto thee, until he have consumed thee from off the land, whither thou goest to possess it.

22 Angraeng mah nangcae to angoihaih maw, ngannathaih maw, nganbawkhaih maw, nganbet paraihaih maw, takpum zaek kaenghaih maw, ngan duek suthaih maw, sumsen hoiah maw na thuitaek o ueloe, nam ro o boih ai karoek to, to baktih nathaih mah na patom o tih.

The LORD shall smite thee with a consumption, and with a fever, and with an inflammation, and with an extreme burning, and with the sword, and with blasting, and with mildew; and they shall pursue thee until thou perish.

23 Nangcae ranui ih van to sum kamling ah om ueloe, nangcae tlim ih long loe sum ah angcoeng tih.

And thy heaven that [is] over thy head shall be brass, and the earth that is under thee [shall be] iron.

24 Angraeng mah na prae thungah angzo khotui to vaiphu hoi maiphu ah angcoengsak tih, nam ro o boih ai karoek to van hoiah nang khaeah krah tathuk tih.

The LORD shall make the rain of thy land powder and dust: from heaven shall it come down upon thee, until thou be destroyed.

25 Angraeng mah nang to na misanawk hmaa ah amtimsak tih; nihcae tuk hanah loklam maeto hoiah na caeh; toe loklam sarihto hoiah nihcae hmaa ah na cawn ueloe, long pum ah panuet thok kami ah na om o tih.

The LORD shall cause thee to be smitten before thine enemies: thou shalt go out one way against them, and flee seven ways before them: and shalt be removed into all the kingdoms of the earth.

26 Na qok loe van ih tavaanawk hoi long ah kaom moisannawk ih buh ah om tih, mi mah doeh to van ih tavaa hoi moisannawk to hui mak ai.

And thy carcase shall be meat unto all fowls of the air, and unto the beasts of the earth, and no man shall fray [them] away.

27 Angraeng mah Izip prae ih ahlut, ngan tangdawh nathaih, phra, kahoih thai ai ngan kamthak hoiah na thuitaek o tih.

The LORD will smite thee with the botch of Egypt, and with the emerods, and with the scab, and with the itch, whereof thou canst not be healed.

28 Angraeng mah amthuhaih, mikmaenghaih hoi poek anghmang suthaih hoiah na thuitaek tih;

The LORD shall smite thee with madness, and blindness, and astonishment of heart:

29 mikmaeng mah khoving ah pathoep baktih toengah, khodai ah hmuen to na pathoep o tih; na caehhaih lam kruekah hmacawn mak ai; kaminawk mah na pacaekthlaek o ueloe, hmuennawk to na lomh pae o tih; mi mah doeh na pahlong o mak ai.

And thou shalt grope at noonday, as the blind gropeth in darkness, and thou shalt not prosper in thy ways: and thou shalt be only oppressed and spoiled evermore, and no man shall save [thee].

30 Zu na la o tih; toe minawk kalah mah na zu to iip o haih tih; im na sah o tih; toe na om haih mak ai; misur takha na sah o tih; toe athaih na pakhrik o mak ai.

Thou shalt betroth a wife, and another man shall lie with her: thou shalt build an house, and thou shalt not dwell therein: thou shalt plant a vineyard, and shalt not gather the grapes thereof.

31 Nangmah ih maitaw to na mikhnuk ah bop o tih; toe a moi to na caa o mak ai; na mikhnukah nang ih laa hrang to thaa hoi la o tih; toe na paek o let mak ai; na misanawk hanah nang ih tuu to paek o naah, pahlongkung mi doeh om mak ai.

Thine ox [shall be] slain before thine eyes, and thou shalt not eat thereof: thine ass [shall be] violently taken away from before thy face, and shall not be restored to thee: thy sheep [shall be] given unto thine enemies, and thou shalt have none to rescue [them].

32 Minawk mah na capa hoi na canunawk to la o ving tih; nihcae na khet loiah na mik to khah sut ueloe, na ban doeh thazok sut tih.

Thy sons and thy daughters [shall be] given unto another people, and thine eyes shall look, and fail [with longing] for them all the day long: and [there shall be] no might in thine hand.

33 Na prae thung ih thingthai qumpo, toksak hoiah na hnuk ih hmuennawk to na panoek ai ih kaminawk mah caa o king tih; na hing thung kami mah pacaekthlaekhaih na tong o tih;

The fruit of thy land, and all thy labours, shall a nation which thou knowest not eat up; and thou shalt be only oppressed and crushed alway:

34 na mik hoi hnuk ih hmuen mah nang to amthusak tih.

So that thou shalt be mad for the sight of thine eyes which thou shalt see.

35 Angraeng mah khokkhu hoi khoknawk khue ai ah, na khokpadae hoi lu khoek to kahoih thai ai ahlut hoiah koisak tih.

The LORD shall smite thee in the knees, and in the legs, with a sore botch that cannot be healed, from the sole of thy foot unto the top of thy head.

36 Angraeng mah nangmacae hoi nangmacae nuiah na suek o ih siangpahrang to, nangmah hoi nam panawk mah doeh panoek vai ai ih kaminawk khaeah caeh haih ueloe, to ah thing hoiah maw, thlung hoiah maw sak ih kalah sithawnawk to na bok o tih.

The LORD shall bring thee, and thy king which thou shalt set over thee, unto a nation which neither thou nor thy fathers have known; and there shalt thou serve other gods, wood and stone.

37 Nangcae loe Angraeng mah haek han ih prae kalah kaminawk salakah dawnraihaih, patahhaih hoi pahnui thuih hanah ni na om o tih boeh.

And thou shalt become an astonishment, a proverb, and a byword, among all nations whither the LORD shall lead thee.

38 Na lawk thungah cangti pop parai ah na tuh o tih; toe pakhunawk mah caak boih pongah, zetta khue ni na aat o tih.

Thou shalt carry much seed out into the field, and shalt gather [but] little in; for the locust shall consume it.

39 Misur takha na sah o ueloe, akung doeh na tling o tih; toe langkawk mah caak pongah, misurtui doeh na nae o mak ai ueloe, athaih doeh na caa o mak ai.

Thou shalt plant vineyards, and dress [them], but shalt neither drink [of] the wine, nor gather [the grapes; ] for the worms shall eat them.

40 Na prae thung boih ah olive thing na tawn o tih; toe athaih angmuen king pongah, olive situi to nang nok o mak ai.

Thou shalt have olive trees throughout all thy coasts, but thou shalt not anoint [thyself] with the oil; for thine olive shall cast [his fruit].

41 Canu hoi capanawk doeh na tawn o tih; toe nihcae loe misong ah angtang o pongah, nihcae hoi nawnto kanawm ah na om o mak ai.

Thou shalt beget sons and daughters, but thou shalt not enjoy them; for they shall go into captivity.

42 Na prae thungah kaom thingnawk hoi thingthai qumponawk to pakhuh mah caa boih tih.

All thy trees and fruit of thy land shall the locust consume.

43 Nangcae thungah kaom angvin loe nangcae ranuiah daw tahang tih, nangcae loe atlim ah nang hum o tathuk tih.

The stranger that [is] within thee shall get up above thee very high; and thou shalt come down very low.

44 Hmuen coi hanah anih mah na paek tih, toe nang loe anih coisak hanah hmuen na paek thai mak ai; anih loe lu ah om ueloe, nang loe tamai ah na om tih.

He shall lend to thee, and thou shalt not lend to him: he shall be the head, and thou shalt be the tail.

45 Na Angraeng Sithaw ih loknawk, anih mah thuih ih loknawk hoi anih ih kaaloknawk pazui hanah lok na tahngai o ai pongah, nam ro boih ai karoek to, hae tangoenghaih hae na nuiah pha boih tih, nang to na patom o ueloe, na kae o tih.

Moreover all these curses shall come upon thee, and shall pursue thee, and overtake thee, till thou be destroyed; because thou hearkenedst not unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to keep his commandments and his statutes which he commanded thee:

46 To hmuennawk loe nangmah hoi na caanawk nuiah, dungzan angmathaih hoi dawnrai hmuen ah om tih.

And they shall be upon thee for a sign and for a wonder, and upon thy seed for ever.

47 angraeng nathuem ah, anghoehaih hoiah na Angraeng Sithaw ih tok to na sah ai pongah,

Because thou servedst not the LORD thy God with joyfulness, and with gladness of heart, for the abundance of all [things; ]

48 Angraeng mah patoeh ih na misanawk ih tok to, zok amthlamhaih, tui anghaehhaih, bangkrai ah ohhaih, amtang amlaihaih hoiah na sah tih; nam ro ai karoek to tahnong ah sum hoiah thlong na thuk pae tih.

Therefore shalt thou serve thine enemies which the LORD shall send against thee, in hunger, and in thirst, and in nakedness, and in want of all [things: ] and he shall put a yoke of iron upon thy neck, until he have destroyed thee.

49 Nangcae tuksak hanah Angraeng mah tahmu baktih angtawt karang, a lok na thaih ai ih angthla parai, long boenghaih ahmuen ah kaom,

The LORD shall bring a nation against thee from far, from the end of the earth, [as swift] as the eagle flieth; a nation whose tongue thou shalt not understand;

50 mikhmai pan thai ai, mitong doeh nawkta doeh tahmenhaih tawn ai kalah prae kami to kawk ueloe,

A nation of fierce countenance, which shall not regard the person of the old, nor shew favour to the young:

51 nam ro o boih ai karoek to, na misa mah nang ih maitaw caa hoi na lawk ih thingthai qumponawk to caa king tih; nam ro ai karoek to, anih mah cang, misurtui, situi, maitaw caanawk hoi tuu caanawk to tahmat mak ai.

And he shall eat the fruit of thy cattle, and the fruit of thy land, until thou be destroyed: which [also] shall not leave thee [either] corn, wine, or oil, [or] the increase of thy kine, or flocks of thy sheep, until he have destroyed thee.

52 Na prae thungah na oep ih nangmah ih vangpui sipae amtim rup ai karoek to, na prae thung ih vangpuinawk to takui o boih tih; na Angraeng Sithaw mah ang paek o ih, prae thung ih vangpuinawk to takui o boih tih.

And he shall besiege thee in all thy gates, until thy high and fenced walls come down, wherein thou trustedst, throughout all thy land: and he shall besiege thee in all thy gates throughout all thy land, which the LORD thy God hath given thee.

53 Misa mah na takui khoep ueloe, poek patang loiah na Angraeng Sithaw mah ang paek ih na zok thung ih na canu hoi na capanawk mataeng doeh na caa tih.

And thou shalt eat the fruit of thine own body, the flesh of thy sons and of thy daughters, which the LORD thy God hath given thee, in the siege, and in the straitness, wherewith thine enemies shall distress thee:

54 Nangcae thung ih palungsawk koek kami hoi poek naem koek kami mah mataeng doeh angmah ih nawkamya, a palung ih a zu hoi kahing a caanawk nuiah tahmenhaih tawn mak ai;

[So that] the man [that is] tender among you, and very delicate, his eye shall be evil toward his brother, and toward the wife of his bosom, and toward the remnant of his children which he shall leave:

55 a caak ih ngan to a caak hanah, to kaom kami maeto han mataeng doeh paek mak ai; na misanawk mah vangpui takui o nathung tidoeh tawn ai ah khosak nathung, to tiah na misanawk mah poekhaih amtangsak tih.

So that he will not give to any of them of the flesh of his children whom he shall eat: because he hath nothing left him in the siege, and in the straitness, wherewith thine enemies shall distress thee in all thy gates.

56 Palungsawk moe, poek naem pongah, long cawh vai ai nongpata doeh caak han tawn ai pongah, a palung ih sava, a capa hoi a canu nuiah poeksethaih palungthin to tawn tih,

The tender and delicate woman among you, which would not adventure to set the sole of her foot upon the ground for delicateness and tenderness, her eye shall be evil toward the husband of her bosom, and toward her son, and toward her daughter,

57 a khok hnetto salak hoiah tacawt a caa nawkta, a zok thung hoi tapen a caanawk nuiah poeksethaih palungthin to tawn tih; misa mah vangpuinawk to takui khoep moe, poekhaih patangsak pongah, tamquta hoiah a caanawk to caa tih.

And toward her young one that cometh out from between her feet, and toward her children which she shall bear: for she shall eat them for want of all [things] secretly in the siege and straitness, wherewith thine enemy shall distress thee in thy gates.

58 Lensawk moe, zit kathok ahmin, na Angraeng Sithaw to zit hanah, hae cabu thungah tarik ih kaaloknawk hae acoehaih hoiah na pazui boih ai nahaeloe,

If thou wilt not observe to do all the words of this law that are written in this book, that thou mayest fear this glorious and fearful name, THE LORD THY GOD;

59 na Angraeng Sithaw mah na caanawk nuiah na tongh han koi dawnrai koi hmuen ah kaom raihaih, kalen parai raihaih, atue kasawk parai raihaih, kahoih thai ai kanung parai nathaih to patoeh tih.

Then the LORD will make thy plagues wonderful, and the plagues of thy seed, [even] great plagues, and of long continuance, and sore sicknesses, and of long continuance.

60 Na zit ih Izip prae nathaihnawk to, na nuiah phasak boih tih, nang khaeah akapsak caeng tih.

Moreover he will bring upon thee all the diseases of Egypt, which thou wast afraid of; and they shall cleave unto thee.

61 Angraeng mah nam ro ai karoek to, hae kaalok cabu thungah tarik ai ih nathaih hoi raihaihnawk to na nuiah phasak tih.

Also every sickness, and every plague, which [is] not written in the book of this law, them will the LORD bring upon thee, until thou be destroyed.

62 Nang loe van ih cakaeh zetto na pop cadoeh, na Angraeng Sithaw ih lok to na tahngai ai pongah, zetta ah ni na om sut tih.

And ye shall be left few in number, whereas ye were as the stars of heaven for multitude; because thou wouldest not obey the voice of the LORD thy God.

63 Nang khosak na hoih moe, nang pung tahang naah, Angraeng anghoe baktih toengah, Angraeng loe nang to amrosak moe, tidoeh tawn ai ah ohsak hanah doeh anghoe; qawktoep han na caehhaih prae thung hoiah anih mah nang to amrosak tih.

And it shall come to pass, [that] as the LORD rejoiced over you to do you good, and to multiply you; so the LORD will rejoice over you to destroy you, and to bring you to nought; and ye shall be plucked from off the land whither thou goest to possess it.

64 To pacoengah Angraeng mah, long boenghaih maeto bang hoi kalah maeto bang khoek to, kaminawk salakah na haek o boih tih; to ahmuen ah nangmah hoi nam panawk mah panoek o vai ai ih, thing hoi sak moe, thlung hoiah sak ih kalah sithawnawk to na bok o tih.

And the LORD shall scatter thee among all people, from the one end of the earth even unto the other; and there thou shalt serve other gods, which neither thou nor thy fathers have known, [even] wood and stone.

65 Nang loe to prae kaminawk salakah anghakhaih na hnu mak ai; na khokpadae suekhaih kakhawt anghakhaih ahmuen mataeng doeh na tawn mak ai; toe Angraeng mah to ahmuen ah tasoehhaih palungthin, mik thazokhaih hoi palungsethaih to na paek tih.

And among these nations shalt thou find no ease, neither shall the sole of thy foot have rest: but the LORD shall give thee there a trembling heart, and failing of eyes, and sorrow of mind:

66 Oephaih om ai ah kho na sah ueloe, khoving khodai zithaih hoiah na om tih; oephaih kaom hinghaih to na tawn mak ai.

And thy life shall hang in doubt before thee; and thou shalt fear day and night, and shalt have none assurance of thy life:

67 Zithaih palungthin, mik hoi hnuk ih hmuen mah zithaih to paek pongah, khawnthaw ah niduem lai nasoe, tiah na thui ueloe, duembang ah khodai lai nasoe, tiah na thui tih.

In the morning thou shalt say, Would God it were even! and at even thou shalt say, Would God it were morning! for the fear of thine heart wherewith thou shalt fear, and for the sight of thine eyes which thou shalt see.

68 Hae loklam na hnu let mak ai boeh, tiah kang thuih ih loklam hoiah, Angraeng mah nang to, Izip prae ah palong pui hoiah na thak let tih, to prae ah misong nongpa hoi misong nongpata ah oh hanah, nangcae to misanawk khaeah na zaw tih; toe mi mah doeh nangcae to qan mak ai.

And the LORD shall bring thee into Egypt again with ships, by the way whereof I spake unto thee, Thou shalt see it no more again: and there ye shall be sold unto your enemies for bondmen and bondwomen, and no man shall buy [you].
