Olrhaepnah 12

1 Khohmuen kahaka hing nangmih tena tue khuiah pang sak hamla na parhoek kah Pathen BOEIPAloh nang taengah m'paek khohmuen ah herhoek kah oltlueh neh laitloeknah he vai hamla ngaithuenuh.

These are the statutes and the ordinances, which ye shall observe to do in the land which the LORD, the God of thy fathers, hath given thee to possess it, all the days that ye live upon the earth.

2 Na haekuh namtom rhoek loh tho a thuengnah hmuen boeih te milh rhoe milhsakuh. Amih kah pathen te tlang ah khaw, som ah khaw, thing hing hmui boeih ah a pomsang uh lah ko.

Ye shall surely destroy all the places, wherein the nations that ye are to dispossess served their gods, upon the high mountains, and upon the hills, and under every leafy tree.

3 A hmueihtuk te palet lamtah a kaam te phaekuh. Amih kah Asherahte hmai neh hoehuh. Amih kah pathen mueidaepte khaw tloekuh. A ming te te hmuen lamloh phaeuh.

And ye shall break down their altars, and dash in pieces their pillars, and burn their Asherim with fire; and ye shall hew down the graven images of their gods; and ye shall destroy their name out of that place.

4 BOEIPA na Pathen taengah te bang te saiiuh boeh.

Ye shall not do so unto the LORD your God.

5 Tedae BOEIPA na Pathenloh amah minga phuktih khosak thil hama coelh hmuen te mah nangmih koca boeih loh tlapuh lamtah paanuh.

But unto the place which the LORD your God shall choose out of all your tribes to put His name there, even unto His habitation shall ye seek, and thither thou shalt come;

6 Te lamte na hmueihhlutnah neh hmueih khaw, parha pakhat neh na kut dongkah khocang khaw, na olcaeng neh na kothoh khaw, na saelhung neh na boiva cacuek te khaw khuenuh.

and thither ye shall bring your burnt-offerings, and your sacrifices, and your tithes, and the offering of your hand, and your vows, and your freewill-offerings, and the firstlings of your herd and of your flock;

7 BOEIPA na Pathen kah mikhmuh ah cauh. BOEIPA na Pathenloh na yoe han then sak vanbangla namamih neh na imkhui kah na kut thuengnah boeih dongahna kohoesakuh.

and there ye shall eat before the LORD your God, and ye shall rejoice in all that ye put your hand unto, ye and your households, wherein the LORD thy God hath blessed thee.

8 Tihnin kah he rhoek ah mamih boeih loh n'saiiuh bangla saiiuh boeh. Hlang he amah mikhmuh ah boeih thuem ta.

Ye shall not do after all that we do here this day, every man whatsoever is right in his own eyes;

9 Duemnah neh BOEIPA na Pathenloh nang taengah m'paek rho khuiah na kunuh pawt ve.

for ye are not as yet come to the rest and to the inheritance, which the LORD your God giveth thee.

10 Jordanna poenguh tih BOEIPA na Pathenloh nangmih m'pang sak khohmuen lana omuh vaengaha kaepvai kah na thunkha cungkuem taeng lamloh nangmih n'duem sak vetih ngaikhuek la kho na sak uh bitni.

But when ye go over the Jordan, and dwell in the land which the LORD your God causeth you to inherit, and He giveth you rest from all your enemies round about, so that ye dwell in safety;

11 Tedae BOEIPA na Pathenloh amah ming om sak ham amah taengaha coelh hmuen te om bitni. Teah tah kailoh nangmih kang uen vanbangla na hmueihhlutnah neh na hmueih khaw, parha pakhat neh na kut dongkah khocang khaw, BOEIPA taengahna caeng, olcaeng piyawn boeih khaw boeih khuenuh.

then it shall come to pass that the place which the LORD your God shall choose to cause His name to dwell there, thither shall ye bring all that I command you: your burnt-offerings, and your sacrifices, your tithes, and the offering of your hand, and all your choice vows which ye vow unto the LORD.

12 Te vaengah namamih neh na canu na capa rhoek khaw, na salpa neh na salnurhoek khaw, nangmih bangla khoyo neh rho om pawt tih na vongka khuiah aka om Levirhoekkhaw BOEIPA na Pathen kah mikhmuh ahna kohoesakuh.

And ye shall rejoice before the LORD your God, ye, and your sons, and your daughters, and your men-servants, and your maid-servants, and the Levite that is within your gates, forasmuch as he hath no portion nor inheritance with you.

13 Namah te ngaithuen, na hmuh bangla hmuen cungkuem ah na hmueihhlutnahna tloeng ve.

Take heed to thyself that thou offer not thy burnt-offerings in every place that thou seest;

14 Namah koca pakhat khuiah BOEIPAkaha coelh hmuen bueng ahni na hmueihhlutnah te na nawn vetih kang uen bangla boeihna saii eh.

but in the place which the LORD shall choose in one of thy tribes, there thou shalt offer thy burnt-offerings, and there thou shalt do all that I command thee.

15 Tedae na hingluloh a hue boeih te ngawn lamtah BOEIPA na Pathenloh nang m'paek yoethennah maeh la ca. Na vongka khuikah boeih te tah rhalawt neha cuem khaw rhangrhaeh bangla, kirhang bangla ca saeh.

Notwithstanding thou mayest kill and eat flesh within all thy gates, after all the desire of thy soul, according to the blessing of the LORD thy God which He hath given thee; the unclean and the clean may eat thereof, as of the gazelle, and as of the hart.

16 Tedae thii te tah ca boeh. Diklai dongah tui bangla hawk.

Only ye shall not eat the blood; thou shalt pour it out upon the earth as water.

17 Na cangpai, misur thai, situi parha pakhat khaw, na saelhung neh boiva cacuek, na caeng tangtae na olcaeng boeih, na kothoh neh na kut dongkah khosaa tah na vongka ahna caak ham coeng pawh.

Thou mayest not eat within thy gates the tithe of thy corn, or of thy wine, or of thine oil, or the firstlings of thy herd or of thy flock, nor any of thy vows which thou vowest, nor thy freewill-offerings, nor the offering of thy hand;

18 Namah neh na canu na capa long khaw, na salnu salpa long khaw, na vongka khuiah aka om Levi long khaw, BOEIPA na Pathen kah mikhmuh ah cauh. Tekaha hmuen te tah BOEIPA na Pathen amah long ni a tuek. Te dongah na kut thuengnah boeih nen khaw BOEIPA na Pathen kah mikhmuh ahna kohoesakuh.

but thou shalt eat them before the LORD thy God in the place which the LORD thy God shall choose, thou, and thy son, and thy daughter, and thy man-servant, and thy maid-servant, and the Levite that is within thy gates; and thou shalt rejoice before the LORD thy God in all that thou puttest thy hand unto.

19 Namah te ngaithuen. na khohmuen kah na hing tue khuiah Levirhoek tena hnoo ve ne.

Take heed to thyself that thou forsake not the Levite as long as thou livest upon thy land.

20 Nang taengkaha thui vanbangla BOEIPA na Pathenloh na khorhi hang aeh vaengah na hingluloh maeh caak hamlaa nai tih, “Maeh ka caak lah sue,” na ti oeh atah na hingluloh a hue mebang maeh khaw na caak thai.

When the LORD thy God shall enlarge thy border, as He hath promised thee, and thou shalt say: 'I will eat flesh', because thy soul desireth to eat flesh; thou mayest eat flesh, after all the desire of thy soul.

21 BOEIPA na Pathenloh amah ming phuk thil hama coelh hmuente nang lamloh hlavak oeh tih, BOEIPAloh nang m'paek saelhung neh boivanina ngawn atah, kang uen vanbangla na hingluloh a hue bangla namah vongka ah khaw ca mai.

If the place which the LORD thy God shall choose to put His name there be too far from thee, then thou shalt kill of thy herd and of thy flock, which the LORD hath given thee, as I have commanded thee, and thou shalt eat within thy gates, after all the desire of thy soul.

22 Rhangrhaeh neh kirhangna caak bangla ca saeh lamtah rhalawt akhawa cuem akhaw rhenten ca saeh.

Howbeit as the gazelle and as the hart is eaten, so thou shalt eat thereof; the unclean and the clean may eat thereof alike.

23 Tedae a thii tah hinglu la a om dongah thiite caak pawt ham tuemuh. A hinglu te maeh neh hmaih ca boeh.

Only be stedfast in not eating the blood; for the blood is the life; and thou shalt not eat the life with the flesh.

24 Tete ca boel lamtah diklai dongah tui bangla hawk.

Thou shalt not eat it; thou shalt pour it out upon the earth as water.

25 Na caak pawt daengahni BOEIPA mikhmuh aha thuemlaa saii vetih namah neh namah hnukkah na ca rhoek loh khophoeng a pha eh.

Thou shalt not eat it; that it may go well with thee, and with thy children after thee, when thou shalt do that which is right in the eyes of the LORD.

26 Tedae namah taengkahaka om hnocim neh na olcaeng tah khuen lamtah BOEIPAkaha coelh hmuen te mah paan puei.

Only thy holy things which thou hast, and thy vows, thou shalt take, and go unto the place which the LORD shall choose;

27 Na hmueihhlutnah maeh neh thiite BOEIPA na Pathen kah hmueihtuk soah nawn. Tedae na hmueih thiite BOEIPA na Pathen kah hmueihtuk dongah hawk lamtaha saa tah ca mai.

and thou shalt offer thy burnt-offerings, the flesh and the blood, upon the altar of the LORD thy God; and the blood of thy sacrifices shall be poured out against the altar of the LORD thy God, and thou shalt eat the flesh.

28 Kailoh nang kang uen olka boeih he ngaithuen lamtah hnatun. Te daengahni BOEIPA na Pathen kah mikhmuh aha thuem neha then la na saii vetih namah neh na hnukkah na ca rhoek long khaw kumhal duela khophoeng a pha eh.

Observe and hear all these words which I command thee, that it may go well with thee, and with thy children after thee for ever, when thou doest that which is good and right in the eyes of the LORD thy God.

29 Namtom haek ham na paan vaengah BOEIPA na Pathenloh na mikhmuh lamkaha tulnoicoeng. Te dongahni amih tena haek tih a khohmuen ah kho na sak.

When the LORD thy God shall cut off the nations from before thee, whither thou goest in to dispossess them, and thou dispossessest them, and dwellest in their land;

30 Namah te ngaithuen, na mikhmuh lamkah amiha mitmoeng sak phoeiah amih hnukah n'hlaeh ve. Te dongah, “Namtom rhoekloh a pathen taengah metlam a tho a thueng uh, kai long khaw ka saii van mako?,” aka ti hamla amih kah pathen kawng te na toem ve.

take heed to thyself that thou be not ensnared to follow them, after that they are destroyed from before thee; and that thou inquire not after their gods, saying: 'How used these nations to serve their gods? even so will I do likewise.'

31 BOEIPAkaha tueilaehkoi boeih te tah BOEIPA na Pathen taengah saii boeh. A pathen taengah hmai neh a canu a capaa hoehuh tih a pathen hama saii uh te a hmuhuet.

Thou shalt not do so unto the LORD thy God; for every abomination to the LORD, which He hateth, have they done unto their gods; for even their sons and their daughters do they burn in the fire to their gods.

32 Kailoh nang kang uen olka boeih hena saii tih na thap pawt ham nehna yueh pawt hamla ngaithuen.

All this word which I command you, that shall ye observe to do; thou shalt not add thereto, nor diminish from it.
