Nambar 30

1 Angraeng mah thuih ih lok to Mosi mah Israel zaehoikungnawk khaeah hae tiah thuih pae.

And Moses speaketh unto the heads of the tribes of the sons of Israel, saying, 'This [is] the thing which Jehovah hath commanded:

2 Kami maeto mah Angraeng khaeah lokkamhaih a sak, to tih ai boeh loe palung thung hoiah hmuen maeto sak han thui nahaeloe, a thuih ih lok to amkhrai han om ai;

'When a man voweth a vow to Jehovah, or hath sworn an oath to bind a bond on his soul, he doth not pollute his word; according to all that is going out from his mouth he doth.

3 nongpata maeto loe nawkta vop, ampa im ah oh nathuem ah, Angraeng khaeah lokkamhaih sak moe, a poekhaih baktiah hmuen maeto sak hanah amsak;

'And when a woman voweth a vow to Jehovah, and hath bound a bond in the house of her father in her youth,

4 anih ih lokkamhaih hoiah sak han atim ih lok to ampa mah kawbangah doeh naa ai, omtaak duem nahaeloe, hmuen maeto sak han lokkamhaih hoiah a thuih ih lok to cak tih boeh.

and her father hath heard her vow, and her bond which she hath bound on her soul, and her father hath kept silent at her, then have all her vows been established, and every bond which she hath bound on her soul is established.

5 Toe anih lokkamhaih to ampa mah kaang pae khruek nahaeloe, sak han lokkamhaih to cak mak ai; ampa mah kaang pongah, Angraeng mah anih to tahmen tih.

'And if her father hath disallowed her in the day of his hearing, none of her vows and her bonds which she hath bound on her soul is established, and Jehovah is propitious to her, for her father hath disallowed her.

6 Nongpata loe sava tawnh moe, a lokkamhaih baktiah maw, to tih ai boeh loe hmuen maeto ka sak han, tiah pahni hoiah thuih naah,

'And if she be at all to a husband, and her vows [are] on her, or a wrongful utterance [on] her lips, which she hath bound on her soul,

7 a sava mah thaih, toe a thaih niah kawbangah doeh naa ai, omtaak duem nahaeloe, a sak ih lokkamhaih hoi a thuih ih lok to caksak han oh.

and her husband hath heard, and in the day of his hearing, he hath kept silent at her, then have her vows been established, and her bonds which she hath bound on her soul are established.

8 Toe a sava mah thaih na niah sak han ai ah pakaa pae khruek nahaeloe, anih lokkamhaih maw, pahni hoiah thuih ih lok maw loe azom ah ni om tih; Angraeng mah doeh anih to tahmen tih.

'And if in the day of her husband's hearing he disalloweth her, then he hath broken her vow which [is] on her, and the wrongful utterance of her lips which she hath bound on her soul, and Jehovah is propitious to her.

9 Lamhmaih nongpata hoi sava mah pakhrak ih nongpata mah lokkamhaih sah nahaeloe, a lokkamhaih to caksak han oh.

'As to the vow of a widow or cast-out woman, all that she hath bound on her soul is established on her.

10 Sava tawn nongpata mah lokkamhaih to sak han ih maw, to tih ai boeh loe hmuen maeto sak han lokkamhaih sak naah,

'And if [in] the house of her husband she hath vowed, or hath bound a bond on her soul with an oath,

11 a sava mah thaih, toe pakaa ai, kawbangah doeh naa ai, omtaak duem nahaeloe, hmuen maeto sak han lokkamhaih hoiah a thuih ih lok to cak tih.

and her husband hath heard, and hath kept silent at her — he hath not disallowed her — then have all her vows been established, and every bond which she hath bound on her soul is established.

12 Toe sava mah to lok to thaih na niah a lok to aek pae nahaeloe, pahni hoiah thuih ih lokkamhaih hoiah sak han thuih ih lok to cak mak ai; a sava mah phraek boeh pongah, Angraeng mah doeh anih to tahmen tih.

'And if her husband doth certainly break them in the day of his hearing, none of the outgoing of her lips concerning her vows, or concerning the bond of her soul, is established — her husband hath broken them — and Jehovah is propitious to her.

13 A poekhaih amtang hanah a sak ih lokkamhaih boih, hmuen maeto sak han thuih ih lok boih loe, a sava mah caksak thaih baktiah, a phraek thaih.

'Every vow and every oath — a bond to humble a soul — her husband doth establish it, or her husband doth break it;

14 Toe a sava mah to hmuen kawng pongah, nito pacoeng nito tidoeh thui ai ah omtaak duem nahaeloe, to nongpata mah lokkamhaih hoiah sak han thuih ih loknawk boih loe cak tih; a sava mah thaih, toe anih to kawbangah doeh naa ai pongah, a thuih ih lok to cak tih.

and if her husband certainly keep silent at her, from day unto day, then he hath established all her vows, or all her bonds which [are] upon her; he hath established them, for he hath kept silent at her in the day of his hearing;

15 Toe sava mah thaih pacoengah hnukkhuem ah phraek han thui nahaeloe, a zu zaehaih to sava nuiah krah tih, tiah a naa.

and if he doth at all break them after his hearing, then he hath borne her iniquity.'

16 Hae loe Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah thuih pae ih, zu sava salak, ampa hoi ampa im ah kaom a canu tangla salakah khosakhaih atawk ah oh.

These [are] the statutes which Jehovah hath commanded Moses between a man and his wife, between a father and his daughter, in her youth, [in] the house of her father.
