Deuteronomy 6

1 Hae loknawk loe Jordan vapui nang kat o moe, na toep o ih prae thungah na oh o naah na sak o hanah, nihcae patuk han koi, na Angraeng Sithaw mah paek ih kaalok, lokcaekhaih hoi zaehhoihaih daan lok ah oh.

Now these are the commandments, the statutes, and the ordinances, which the LORD your God commanded to teach you, that you might do them in the land that you go over to possess;

2 To tiah ni nangmah hoi na caanawk, na caanawk ih caa patoengnawk mah, kang paek ih lokcaekhaih hoi zaehhoihaih daan loknawk to hing thung pazui o tih, na Angraeng Sithaw to zii o ueloe, hinglung doeh sawk o tih.

that you might fear the LORD your God, to keep all his statutes and his commandments, which I command you—you, your son, and your son’s son, all the days of your life; and that your days may be prolonged.

3 Aw Israel kaminawk, tahngai oh; nam panawk ih Angraeng Sithaw mah nangcae khaeah thuih ih lok baktih toengah, nangcae loe tahnutui hoi khoitui longhaih prae ah, khosak na hoih o tih, pop parai ah nang pung o thaih hanah, acoehaih hoiah pazui oh.

Hear therefore, Israel, and observe to do it, that it may be well with you, and that you may increase mightily, as the LORD, the God of your fathers, has promised to you, in a land flowing with milk and honey.

4 Aw Israel kaminawk, tahngai oh; aicae Angraeng Sithaw loe, maeto khue kaom Angraeng ah oh.

Hear, Israel: the LORD is our God. The LORD is one.

5 Na Angraeng Sithaw to na palungthin boih, na hinghaih boih, na thacakhaih boih hoiah palung ah.

You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your might.

6 Vaihniah kang thuih o ih hae loknawk hae na palungthin thungah pakuem oh;

These words, which I command you today, shall be on your heart;

7 na caanawk ih caa patoeng khaeah doeh kahoih ah patuk oh; imthung ah nang hnut o naah maw, loklam na caeh o naah maw, na iih o moe, nang thawk o naah maw doeh thui pae oh.

and you shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise up.

8 Na ban pongah to loknawk to angmathaih ah pathlet oh loe, na mik salak ih lu pataeh nuiah doeh zaeng oh.

You shall bind them for a sign on your hand, and they shall be for frontlets between your eyes.

9 Na khongkha hoi na imthung ih tung pongah doeh tarik oh.

You shall write them on the door posts of your house and on your gates.

10 Na Angraeng Sithaw mah na sah o ai ih kalen parai, kahoih phi vangpuinawk nangcaeh khaeah paek hanah, nam pa Abraham, Isak hoi Jakob khaeah lokkam ih prae thungah ang caeh haih naah loe,

It shall be, when the LORD your God brings you into the land which he swore to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give you, great and goodly cities which you didn’t build,

11 na sah o ai ih kahoih hmuennawk hoiah kakoi imnawk, na takaeh o ai ih tuikhawnawk, na patit o ai ih misur takhanawk hoi olive kungnawk to caak moe, zok nam hah o haih atue om tih.

and houses full of all good things which you didn’t fill, and cisterns dug out which you didn’t dig, vineyards and olive trees which you didn’t plant, and you shall eat and be full;

12 Misong ah na oh o haih, Izip prae thung hoiah zaehoikung, Angraeng to na pahnet o han ai ah acoe oh.

then beware lest you forget the LORD, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.

13 Na Angraeng Sithaw to zii oh loe, anih ih tok khue to sah oh; anih ih ahmin hoiah lokkamhaih to sah oh.

You shall fear the LORD your God; and you shall serve him, and shall swear by his name.

14 Nangcae taengah kaom kaminawk ih, sithawnawk hoi kalah sithawnawk hnukah patom o hmah;

You shall not go after other gods, of the gods of the peoples who are around you,

15 to tih ai nahaeloe nangcae salakah kaom, na Angraeng Sithaw loe ut panoek Sithaw ah oh pongah, nangcae nuiah na Angraeng Sithaw palungphuihaih hmai baktiah kangh ueloe, long nui hoiah na tamit o boih moeng tih.

for the LORD your God amongst you is a jealous God, lest the anger of the LORD your God be kindled against you, and he destroy you from off the face of the earth.

16 Massah ah na sak o ih baktih toengah, na Angraeng Sithaw to tanoek o hmah.

You shall not tempt the LORD your God, as you tempted him in Massah.

17 Na Angraeng Sithaw mah paek ih, pazui han koi a thuih ih loknawk hoi zaehhoihaih daannawk to nangcae mah kahoih ah pazui oh.

You shall diligently keep the commandments of the LORD your God, and his testimonies, and his statutes, which he has commanded you.

18 Angraeng hmaa ah katoeng hoi kahoih hmuen to sah oh; to tiah nahaeloe Angraeng mah nam panawk khaeah paek han lokkam ih, prae thungah na kun o thaih ueloe, khosak na hoih o tih,

You shall do that which is right and good in the LORD’s sight, that it may be well with you and that you may go in and possess the good land which the LORD swore to your fathers,

19 Angraeng mah thuih ih lok baktih toengah, na misanawk to nangmacae hma ah nam khueng o sak boih tih.

to thrust out all your enemies from before you, as the LORD has spoken.

20 Hmabang tue ah na caa mah, Aicae Angraeng Sithaw mah thuih ih pazui han koi loknawk hoi lokcaekhaihnawk loe tih thuih koehhaih ih aa? tiah dueng nahaeloe,

When your son asks you in time to come, saying, “What do the testimonies, the statutes, and the ordinances, which the LORD our God has commanded you mean?”

21 na caa khaeah, Kaicae loe Izip prae ah Faro ih misong ah ka oh o; toe a ban thacakhaih hoiah Angraeng mah Izip prae thung hoiah tacawt haih;

then you shall tell your son, “We were Pharaoh’s slaves in Egypt. The LORD brought us out of Egypt with a mighty hand;

22 Angraeng mah kaicae mikhnuk ah, angmathaih, dawnrai hmuennawk, zit kathok, kalen parai hmuennawk to Izip prae, Faro hoi anih ih imthung takoh boih nuiah phaksak.

and the LORD showed great and awesome signs and wonders on Egypt, on Pharaoh, and on all his house, before our eyes;

23 Toe aicae ampanawk khaeah paek hanah sak ih lokkamhaih baktih toengah, to prae thungah akunsak hanah Izip prae thung hoiah kaicae hae ang tacawt haih.

and he brought us out from there, that he might bring us in, to give us the land which he swore to our fathers.

24 Aicae Angraeng Sithaw to zit moe, hae zaehhoihaih daannawk pazui boih hanah, Angraeng mah lokthuih; vaihni khoek to anih mah tahmenhaih amtuengsak baktih toengah, aicae hinghaih doeh na pathlung pae tih.

The LORD commanded us to do all these statutes, to fear the LORD our God, for our good always, that he might preserve us alive, as we are today.

25 Hae kaaloknawk hae aicae Angraeng Sithaw hmaa ah a pazui o thaih boih nahaeloe, aicae toenghaih ah om tih, tiah thui pae oh, tiah a naa.

It shall be righteousness to us, if we observe to do all these commandments before the LORD our God, as he has commanded us.”
