Deuteronomy 30

1 Nangcae hma ah ka suek ih hae tahamhoihaih hoi tangoenghaih boih nangcae khaeah phak naah, Angraeng mah ang haek o ih prae boih ah, to hmuennawk to poek oh,

'And it hath been, when all these things come upon thee, the blessing and the reviling, which I have set before thee, and thou hast brought [them] back unto thy heart, among all the nations whither Jehovah thy God hath driven thee away,

2 nangmah hoi na caanawk boih na Angraeng Sithaw khaeah nam laem o let naah, vaihniah kang thuih o ih lok baktih toengah, na palungthin boih, na hinghaih boih hoiah a lok to na tahngaih o nahaeloe,

and hast turned back unto Jehovah thy God, and hearkened to His voice, according to all that I am commanding thee to-day, thou and thy sons, with all thy heart, and with all thy soul —

3 na Angraeng Sithaw mah tamna ah na ohhaih ahmuen hoiah na kawk let tih; nangcae nuiah tahmenhaih tawn let ueloe, ang haek o ih prae thung boih hoiah na pakhueng o let tih.

then hath Jehovah thy God turned back [to] thy captivity, and pitied thee, yea, He hath turned back and gathered thee out of all the peoples whither Jehovah thy God hath scattered thee.

4 Van tlim ih angthla koek prae ah na haek o cadoeh, to ahmuen hoiah na Angraeng Sithaw mah nangcae pakhueng let hanah na kawk tih.

'If thine outcast is in the extremity of the heavens, thence doth Jehovah thy God gather thee, and thence He doth take thee;

5 Nam panawk mah toep o ih prae thungah na Angraeng Sithaw mah na hoi o let ueloe, prae to na toep o tih; khosak hoihaih na paek o ueloe, nam panawk pong kamtlai ah na pung o tih.

and Jehovah thy God hath brought thee in unto the land which thy fathers have possessed, and thou hast inherited it, and He hath done thee good, and multiplied thee above thy fathers.

6 Na Angraeng Sithaw to na palungthin boih, na hinghaih boih hoi na palung o moe, na hing o thai hanah, na Angraeng Sithaw mah nangmacae hoi na caanawk ih palungthin tangzat to aat tih.

'And Jehovah thy God hath circumcised thy heart, and the heart of thy seed, to love Jehovah thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, for the sake of thy life;

7 Na Angraeng Sithaw mah hae tangoeng ih hmuennawk boih hae nangcae hnuma moe, pacaekthlaek, na misanawk nuiah phasak tih.

and Jehovah thy God hath put all this oath on thine enemies, and on those hating thee, who have pursued thee.

8 Nangcae mah Angraeng ih lok to tahngai oh loe, vaihniah kang paek o ih loknawk hae pazui o boih ah.

'And thou dost turn back, and hast hearkened to the voice of Jehovah, and hast done all His commands which I am commanding thee to-day;

9 To tiah na sak o nahaeloe, na Angraeng Sithaw mah na ban hoi sak ih hmuen boih, na takpum hoi tacawt athaih, maitaw caanawk, na lawk thung ih thingthai qumponawk hoiah khosak na hoih o sak tih; nam panawk nuiah Angraeng anghoe baktih toengah, nangcae nuiah doeh anghoe tih;

and Jehovah thy God hath made thee abundant in every work of thy hand, in the fruit of thy body, and in the fruit of thy cattle, and in the fruit of thy ground, for good; for Jehovah turneth back to rejoice over thee for good, as He rejoiced over thy fathers,

10 na Angraeng Sithaw ih lok to na tahngaih o, hae kaalok cabu thungah tarik moe, a thuih ih loknawk hoi zaehhoihaih daannawk hae na pazui o boih pacoengah, na poekhaih palungthin boih, na hinghaih boih hoiah na Angraeng Sithaw khaeah nam laem o nahaeloe, Angraeng anghoe ueloe, khosak na hoih o sak tih.

for thou dost hearken to the voice of Jehovah thy God, to keep His commands, and His statutes, which are written in the book of this law, for thou turnest back unto Jehovah thy God, with all thy heart, and with all thy soul.

11 Vaihniah kang paek o ih loknawk loe na pazui o thai han ai khoek to karai om ai, dawnrai koi hmuen ah doeh om ai.

'For this command which I am commanding thee to-day, it is not too wonderful for thee, nor [is] it far off.

12 Aicae mah to loknawk to a sak o moe, a pazui o hanah, mi mah maw van ah daw ueloe, aicae han na sin pae tih, tiah thuih hanah, to loknawk loe van ah om ai.

It is not in the heavens, — saying, Who doth go up for us into the heavens, and doth take it for us, and doth cause us to hear it — that we may do it.

13 To lok to a sak o moe, a pazui o hanah, mi mah maw tuipui to angkaat ueloe, aicae han na sin pae tih? tiah thuih hanah, to loknawk loe vapui zaeh ah om ai.

And it [is] not beyond the sea, — saying, Who doth pass over for us beyond the sea, and doth take it for us, and doth cause us to hear it — that we may do it?

14 Lok loe nangcae taengah ni oh; nangcae mah na pazui o thai hanah, na pakha ah oh moe, na palung thungah oh.

For very near unto thee is the word, in thy mouth, and in thy heart — to do it.

15 Khenah, vaihniah hinghaih hoi khosak hoihaih, duekhaih hoi amrohaih, na hmaa ah ka suek.

'See, I have set before thee to-day life and good, and death and evil,

16 Na Angraeng Sithaw to na palung o moe, a loklam ah na caeh o hanah, ang paek ih loknawk, a zaehhoihaih daannawk, a lokcaekhaihnawk to na pazui o hanah, na hing o moe, na pung o thai hanah, vaihniah lok kang paek o; na Angraeng Sithaw mah qawk ah toep han na caeh o ih prae thungah tahamhoihaih na paek o tih.

in that I am commanding thee to-day to love Jehovah thy God, to walk in His ways, and to keep His commands, and His statutes, and His judgments; and thou hast lived and multiplied, and Jehovah thy God hath blessed thee in the land whither thou art going in to possess it.

17 Toe na poekhaih palung to amkhraeng o ving moe, lok tahngai ai ah nang qoi o ving, kalah sithawnawk to na bok o pacoengah, a tok to na sak pae o nahaeloe,

'And if thy heart doth turn, and thou dost not hearken, and hast been driven away, and hast bowed thyself to other gods, and served them,

18 nam ro o tangtang tih, tiah vaihniah kang thuih o; Jordan vapui nang kat o moe, qawktoep hanah na caeh o ih prae thungah kasawk ah na hing o mak ai.

I have declared to you this day, that ye do certainly perish, ye do not prolong days on the ground which thou art passing over the Jordan to go in thither to possess it.

19 Hinghaih hoi duekhaih, tahamhoihaih hoi tangoenghaihnawk nangcae hmaa ah ka suek, tiah hnukung ah oh hanah, vaihniah van hoi long to ka kawk;

'I have caused to testify against you to-day the heavens and the earth; life and death I have set before thee, the blessing and the reviling; and thou hast fixed on life, so that thou dost live, thou and thy seed,

20 Angraeng mah nam pa Abraham, Issak hoi Jakob khaeah paek han lokkam ih prae thungah khosak hanah, Angraeng loe nangcae hinghaih hoi hinglung sawkhaih ah oh pongah, na Angraeng Sithaw to palung oh, a lok to tahngai oh loe, anih to kacakah patawn oh, tiah a thuih pae.

to love Jehovah thy God, to hearken to His voice, and to cleave to Him (for He [is] thy life, and the length of thy days), to dwell on the ground which Jehovah hath sworn to thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give to them.'
