Levitikas 20

1 Angraeng mah Mosi taengah,

And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

2 Israel kaminawk khaeah, Israel kami maw, to tih ai boeh loe Israel kaminawk khaeah kaom angvinnawk maw, a caanawk to Molek khaeah paek kami loe, hum han oh; angmah ih acaeng kaminawk mah anih to thlung hoiah va o maat tih.

Again, thou shalt say to the children of Israel, Whosoever [he be] of the children of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn in Israel, that giveth [any] of his seed unto Molech; he shall surely be put to death: the people of the land shall stone him with stones.

3 Ka hmuenciim to amhnongsak moe, kaciim Kai ih ahmin to tidoeh sah ai ah, a caa to Molek khaeah paek pongah, to kami to mikhmai ka pan thuih mak ai.

And I will set my face against that man, and will cut him off from among his people; because he hath given of his seed unto Molech, to defile my sanctuary, and to profane my holy name.

4 A caa Molek khaeah paek kami to, acaeng kaminawk mah khen o sut moe, anih to hum o ai nahaeloe,

And if the people of the land do any ways hide their eyes from the man, when he giveth of his seed unto Molech, and kill him not:

5 to kami to mikhmai ka set thuih han; angmah hoi a imthung takoh, Molek khaeah takpum zawh hanah, a hnukah patom kami loe, angmah ih acaeng thung hoiah ka pahnawt sut han.

Then I will set my face against that man, and against his family, and will cut him off, and all that go a whoring after him, to commit whoredom with Molech, from among their people.

6 Kadueh pakhranawk hoi lungh aah kop kami khaeah caeh moe, takpum zawh hanah nihcae hnukah bang kami loe, mikhmai ka set thuih han; anih to angmah ih acaeng thung hoiah ka pahnawt sut han.

And the soul that turneth after such as have familiar spirits, and after wizards, to go a whoring after them, I will even set my face against that soul, and will cut him off from among his people.

7 Kai loe na Angraeng Sithaw ah ka oh pongah, nangmacae hoi nangmacae to amhoe o ah loe, ciimcai ah om oh.

Sanctify yourselves therefore, and be ye holy: for I [am] the LORD your God.

8 Kai loe nangcae ciimsakkung Angraeng ah ka oh pongah, ka zaehhoihaih daan to pazui oh loe, sah oh.

And ye shall keep my statutes, and do them: I [am] the LORD which sanctify you.

9 Amno hoi ampa tangoeng kami loe, paduek han oh; anih loe amno hoi ampa to tangoeng pongah, duek han krak.

For every one that curseth his father or his mother shall be surely put to death: he hath cursed his father or his mother; his blood [shall be] upon him.

10 Minawk zu hoi zaehaih sah kami loe, a imtaeng kami ih zu hoiah zaehaih to a sak pongah, nongpa doeh, nongpata doeh paduek hmaek han oh.

And the man that committeth adultery with [another] man’s wife, [even he] that committeth adultery with his neighbour’s wife, the adulterer and the adulteress shall surely be put to death.

11 Ampa ih zu hoi nawnto iip kami loe, ampa ih zu to a zae haih pongah, nongpa doeh, nongpata doeh paduek hmaek han oh; nihnik loe duek hmaek han krak.

And the man that lieth with his father’s wife hath uncovered his father’s nakedness: both of them shall surely be put to death; their blood [shall be] upon them.

12 Angmah ih langah hoi nawnto iip kami loe, panuet thok hmuen to a sak hoi pongah, nongpa doeh, nongpata doeh paduek hmaek han oh; nihnik loe duek han krak.

And if a man lie with his daughter in law, both of them shall surely be put to death: they have wrought confusion; their blood [shall be] upon them.

13 Nongpata iih haih baktih toengah, nongpa hoi nongpa to iip hoi nahaeloe, panuet thok hmuen to a sak hoi pongah, paduek hmaek han oh; nihnik loe duek han krak.

If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood [shall be] upon them.

14 Nongpa maeto mah canu hoi amno to zu ah la hmaek nahaeloe, kasae hmuen to a sak pongah, to baktih kasae hmuen to nangcae salakah oh thai han ai ah, nihcae to hmai hoiah thlaek boih han oh.

And if a man take a wife and her mother, it [is] wickedness: they shall be burnt with fire, both he and they; that there be no wickedness among you.

And if a man lie with a beast, he shall surely be put to death: and ye shall slay the beast.

16 Nongpata doeh kahing moi hoiah zaehaih to sah nahaeloe, to nongpata hoi kahing moi to hum hmaek han oh; nihnik to paduek hmaek han oh; nihnik loe duek han krak.

And if a woman approach unto any beast, and lie down thereto, thou shalt kill the woman, and the beast: they shall surely be put to death; their blood [shall be] upon them.

17 Nongpa maeto loe ampa ih canu, to tih ai boeh loe amno ih canu hoiah maw, to tih ai boeh loe angmah ih tanu hoiah maw zaehaih sah nahaeloe, kasae hmuen to a sak hoi pongah, angmah ih acaeng kaminawk mikhnuk ah nihnik to pahnawt sut han oh; angmah ih tanu to a zae haih pongah, a zaehaih tho to hnu tih.

And if a man shall take his sister, his father’s daughter, or his mother’s daughter, and see her nakedness, and she see his nakedness; it [is] a wicked thing; and they shall be cut off in the sight of their people: he hath uncovered his sister’s nakedness; he shall bear his iniquity.

18 Nongpata athii hnuk naah, anih hoi iip nongpa loe, athii long nongpata to a zae haih baktih toengah, nongpata mah doeh athii long naah nongpa hoi zaehaih sak pongah, nihnik to angmacae acaeng thung hoiah pahnawt han oh.

And if a man shall lie with a woman having her sickness, and shall uncover her nakedness; he hath discovered her fountain, and she hath uncovered the fountain of her blood: and both of them shall be cut off from among their people.

19 Nam no ih amnawk nongpata, to tih ai boeh loe nam pa ih tanu nongpata hoiah zaehaih to sah hmah; to bak tih athii kazoi canawk hoi zaehaih sah kaminawk loe, a sak hoi ih zaehaih tho to hnu o tih.

And thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy mother’s sister, nor of thy father’s sister: for he uncovereth his near kin: they shall bear their iniquity.

And if a man shall lie with his uncle’s wife, he hath uncovered his uncle’s nakedness: they shall bear their sin; they shall die childless.

And if a man shall take his brother’s wife, it [is] an unclean thing: he hath uncovered his brother’s nakedness; they shall be childless.

22 To pongah ka zaehhoih daannawk hoi ka lokcaekhaih to pazui boih moe, sah nahaeloe, kang paek han ih prae thung hoiah kang pathaak mak ai.

Ye shall therefore keep all my statutes, and all my judgments, and do them: that the land, whither I bring you to dwell therein, spue you not out.

23 Nangcae hmaa ah ka haek ih kaminawk ih tuinuen baktiah khosah o hmah; nihcae loe to baktih hmuennawk to a sak o pongah, ka panuet.

And ye shall not walk in the manners of the nation, which I cast out before you: for they committed all these things, and therefore I abhorred them.

24 Toe nangcae khaeah, Nihcae ih prae to na toep o tih, maitaw tahnutui hoi khoitui longhaih prae to qawk ah kang paek o han, tiah kang thuih o boeh; Kai loe kalah prae kaminawk thung hoi nangcae tapraekkung, na Angraeng Sithaw ah ka oh.

But I have said unto you, Ye shall inherit their land, and I will give it unto you to possess it, a land that floweth with milk and honey: I [am] the LORD your God, which have separated you from [other] people.

25 To pongah kaciim moi hoi kaciim ai moi, kaciim tavaa hoi kaciim ai tavaa to pahoe ah; moi hoiah maw, to tih ai boeh loe tavaa hoiah maw, to tih ai boeh loe long ah kavak moinawk hoiah maw panuet thok ah om hmah; to moinawk loe nangcae han ciimcai ai moi, tiah ka pahoe boeh.

Ye shall therefore put difference between clean beasts and unclean, and between unclean fowls and clean: and ye shall not make your souls abominable by beast, or by fowl, or by any manner of living thing that creepeth on the ground, which I have separated from you as unclean.

26 Kai Angraeng loe ciimcai pongah, nangcae doeh Kai han ciimcai oh; kai ih kami ah na oh o hanah, kalah prae kaminawk thung hoiah kang pahoe o boeh.

And ye shall be holy unto me: for I the LORD [am] holy, and have severed you from [other] people, that ye should be mine.

27 Nongpa doeh, nongpata doeh, taqawk muithla tawn kami, to tih ai boeh loe miklet patoh kami loe, paduek han oh; nihcae to thlung hoi vah maat han oh; to baktih kami loe duek han krak, tiah a naa.

A man also or woman that hath a familiar spirit, or that is a wizard, shall surely be put to death: they shall stone them with stones: their blood [shall be] upon them.
