Nambar 5

1 Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah,

And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,

2 Ngansae man kami, kahoih thai ai takpum nathaih tawn kami hoi kaciim ai kadueh qok sui Israel kaminawk loe ataihaih ahmuen tasa bangah suem ah;

“Command the sons of Israel, and they send out of the camp every leper, and everyone with discharging, and everyone defiled by a body;

3 ka ohhaih ahmuen amhnongsak han ai ah, to baktih nathaih tawn kami loe nongpa maw, nongpata maw ohhaih im tasa bangah suem ah, tiah a naa.

you send out from male even to female; you send them to the outside of the camp and they do not defile their camps in the midst of which I dwell.”

4 Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah thuih ih lok baktih toengah, Israel kaminawk mah sak o; to baktih nathaih tawn kami loe ohhaih ahmuen tasa bangah a suek o.

And the sons of Israel do so, and they send them out to the outside of the camp; as YHWH has spoken to Moses so the sons of Israel have done.

5 Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah,

And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,

6 Israel kaminawk khaeah hae tiah thui paeh; kaminawk mah sak o ih zaehaih to nongpa mah maw, nongpata mah maw, Angraeng hmaa ah oep om ai ah sak o pazae pongah, to kami to zaehaih tawn nahaeloe,

“Speak to the sons of Israel: Man or woman, when they do any of the sins of man, by committing a trespass against YHWH, and that person [is] guilty,

7 to kaminawk mah sak o ih zaehaih to taphong han oh; a sakpazae o pongah, a sakpazae o ih kami khaeah ahmuen pangato thungah ahmuen maeto thap ueloe, rong pae boih tih.

and they have confessed their sin which they have done, then he has restored his guilt in its principal, and is adding its fifth to it, and has given [it] to him in reference to whom he has been guilty.

8 Toe kami maeto mah a sakpazae ih hmuen pongah, rong ih hmuen talawkkung om ai nahaeloe, to rong ih hmuen to Angraeng ih hmuen ah suek moe, qaima khaeah paek han oh; to pacoengah anih zaehaih loih thai hanah angbawnhaih sak hanah tuu tae to paek han oh.

And if the man has no redeemer to restore the guilt to, the guilt which is restored [is] to YHWH for the priest, apart from the ram of the atonements, whereby he makes atonement for him.

9 Israel kaminawk mah qaima han sin ih ciimcai hmuennawk boih loe anih ih hmuen ah om tih.

And every raised-offering of all the holy things of the sons of Israel, which they bring near to the priest, becomes his;

10 Kami boih mah kaciim ah sin ih hmuennawk loe, anih ih hmuen ah om tih; kami mah qaima han paek ih tangqumnawk doeh anih ih hmuen ah om tih, tiah thuih paeh, tiah a naa.

and any man’s hallowed things become his; that which any man gives to the priest becomes his.”

11 To pacoengah Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah,

And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,

12 Israel kaminawk han hae tiah lokthui paeh; kami maeto ih zu loe oep om ai pongah, loklam amkhraeng ving moe, a sava nuiah zaehaih a sak;

“Speak to the sons of Israel, and you have said to them: When any man’s wife turns aside, and has committed a trespass against him,

13 kami maeto mah to nongpata to iih haih, toe a sava khaeah thui ai ah angphat; to nongpata loe ciim ai boeh, toe anih hnukung om ai pongah, mi mah doeh a sak ih zaehaih to naeh thai ai,

and a man has lain with her [with] the seed [from] intercourse, and it has been hid from the eyes of her husband, and concealed, and she has been defiled, and there is no witness against her, and she has not been caught,

14 toe sava mah a zu loe ciim ai boeh, tiah oep vawthaih to tawnh maw, to tih ai boeh loe a zu nuiah palunghaenghaih a tawnh, toe anih ih zu loe amhnonghaih tidoeh om ai to mah a sava mah anih nuiah palunghaenghaih tawn nahaeloe,

and a spirit of jealousy has passed over him, and he has been jealous [for] his wife, and she has been defiled—or a spirit of jealousy has passed over him, and he has been jealous [for] his wife, and she has not been defiled—

15 a sava mah a zu to qaima khaeah caeh haih ueloe, barli takaw dip ephah hato thungah maeto a zu ih zae angbawnhaih sak hanah sin tih; takaw dip nuiah situi bawh mak ai, a nuiah hmuihoih doeh thlaek mak ai; to baktih angbawnhaih loe zu nuiah palunghaeng pongah, sak ih angbawnhaih ah oh moe, zaehaih panoek hanah sak ih angbawnhaih ah doeh oh.

then the man has brought in his wife to the priest, and he has brought in her offering for her—a tenth of the ephah of barley meal; he does not pour oil on it, nor does he put frankincense on it, for it [is] a present of jealousy, a present of memorial, causing remembrance of iniquity.

16 Qaima mah to nongpata to caeh haih ueloe, Angraeng hmaa ah angdoesak tih;

And the priest has brought her near, and has caused her to stand before YHWH,

17 to naah qaima mah kaciim tui to long laom thungah lawn ueloe, anih mah kahni imthung ih maiphu to lak pacoengah, tui thungah phuih tih.

and the priest has taken holy water in an earthen vessel, and the priest takes of the dust which is on the floor of the Dwelling Place, and has put [it] into the water,

18 Qaima mah nongpata to Angraeng hmaa ah angdoesak ueloe, nongpata ih lu to khuk pae hmoek tih; nongpata nuiah palunghaeng pongah zaehaih panoek hanah sak ih angbawnhaih takaw dip to a ban ah pasumsak tih; qaima mah tangoenghaih kaomsak thaih tui kakhaa to a ban ah sin tih.

and the priest has caused the woman to stand before YHWH, and has uncovered the woman’s head, and has given the present of the memorial into her hands (it [is] a present of jealousy), and the bitter waters which cause the curse are in the hand of the priest.

19 Qaima mah nongpata to, Kaw baktih nongpa hoiah doeh na iip ai, oep om ai loklam ah doeh nam khraeng ai moe, na sava laep ah kalah nongpa hoiah takpum amhnonghaih to na sah ai nahaeloe, hae ih tangoenghaih kaomsak thaih tui kakhaa hae na nuiah pha hmah nasoe, tiah thui tih.

And the priest has caused her to swear, and has said to the woman, If no man has lain with you, and if you have not turned aside [to] uncleanness under your husband, be free from these bitter waters which cause the curse;

20 Toe na sava nuiah oep thok ai ah na oh moe, kalah nongpa hoiah loklam nam khraeng ving; na sava nuiah kalah nongpa hoiah na iih moe, na takpum to amhnong boeh nahaeloe,

and you, if you have turned aside under your husband, and if you have been defiled, and a man commits his intercourse with you besides your husband—

21 qaima mah nang loe nangmah ih kaminawk salakah, Angraeng mah na phaih to zaeksak ueloe, na zok doeh bawksak tih, to tiah nang loe tangoenghaih zok kami ah na om tih, tiah nongpata khaeah thuih pae pacoengah, nongpata to tangoenghaih lok akamsak tih;

then the priest has caused the woman to swear with an oath of execration, and the priest has said to the woman—YHWH gives you for an execration and for a curse in the midst of your people, in YHWH’s giving your thigh to fall and your belly to swell,

22 tangoenghaih kaomsak hae tui kakhaa hae na zok thungah akun naah, na phaih to zaeksak ueloe, na zok doeh baawk tih, tiah thui pae tih. To naah nongpata mah, Amen, to tiah om nasoe, tiah thui tih.

and these waters which cause the curse have gone into your bowels to cause the belly to swell and the thigh to fall; and the woman has said, Amen, Amen.

23 Hae tangoenghaih lok loe qaima mah cabu thungah tarik ueloe, kakhaa tui hoiah phrae let tih;

And the priest has written these execrations in a scroll, and has blotted [them] out with the bitter waters,

24 qaima mah tangoenghaih kaomsak kakhaa tui to nongpata hanah naesak tih; nongpata ih zok thungah tangoenghaih kaomsak tui kakhaa akun naah, paroeai khaa pae tih.

and has caused the woman to drink the bitter waters which cause the curse, and the waters which cause the curse have entered into her for bitter things.

25 To pacoengah qaima mah to nongpata ban ah sinsak ih palunghaeng pongah sak ih angbawnhaih takaw dip to la ueloe, Angraeng hmaa ah ahaek pacoengah, hmaicam nuiah suem tih.

And the priest has taken the present of jealousy out of the hand of the woman, and has waved the present before YHWH, and has brought it near to the altar;

26 Qaima mah zaehaih panoek han sak ih angbawnhaih takaw dip to ban tangsum maeto la ueloe, hmaicam nuiah hmai hoiah thlaek tih; to pacoengah to tui to nongpata hanah naesak tih.

and the priest has taken a handful of the present, its memorial, and has made incense on the altar, and afterward causes the woman to drink the water;

27 To nongpata mah angmah ih sava nuiah zaehaih to sah moe, ciim ai boeh nahaeloe, tangoenghaih lokkam ih baktih toengah omsakkung tui kakhaa to naek naah, zok thungah tui to paroeai khaa tih; to naah a phaih to zaek ueloe, a zok doeh baawk tih; to naah to nongpata loe angmah ih kaminawk salakah tangoenghaih zok kami ah om tih.

indeed, he has caused her to drink the water, and it has come to pass, if she has been defiled and commits a trespass against her husband, that the waters which cause the curse have gone into her for bitter things, and her belly has swelled, and her thigh has fallen, and the woman has become an execration in the midst of her people.

28 Toe nongpata loe ciimcai moe, amhnonghaih tidoeh om ai nahaeloe, anih loe zaehaih tawn ai pongah, caa sah let tih.

And if the woman has not been defiled, and is clean, then she has been acquitted, and has been sown [with] seed.

29 Hae loe zu mah oep kaom ai ah, kalah nongpa hoi loklam amkhraeng ving moe, sava nuiah ciimcai ai ah khosak naah maw, palunghaenghaih tawnh naah maw,

This [is] the law of jealousies when a wife turns aside under her husband and has been defiled,

30 to tih ai boeh loe nongpa mah a zu nuiah palunghaenghaih tawnh naah maw, patoh ih kaalok ah oh; sava mah a zu nuiah palunghaenghaih tawnh naah, qaima mah nongpata to Angraeng hmaa ah angdoesak ueloe, hae ih kaalok baktih toengah nongpata to lokcaek tih.

or when a spirit of jealousy passes over a man and he has been jealous of his wife, then he has caused the woman to stand before YHWH, and the priest has done to her all this law,

31 To tiah sava loe zaehaih ciim ueloe, nongpata loe a zaehaih pongah danpaekhaih to zok tih, tiah thui paeh, tiah a naa.

and the man has been acquitted from iniquity, and that woman bears her iniquity.”
