Olrhaepnah 13
1 Nang taengah tonghma neh mang aka man te ha poe tih miknoek neh kopoekrhai khaw nang taengah m'paek mai ni.
If ever you have among you a prophet or a dreamer of dreams and he gives you a sign or a wonder,
2 Tedae miknoek neh kopoekrhai te hang khuen tih nang ham a thui vaengah, “Na ming noek pawh pathen tloe hnukah vai uh sih lamtah amih taengah thothueng uh sih,” a ti ni.
And the sign or the wonder takes place, and he says to you, Let us go after other gods, which are strange to you, and give them worship;
3 Tonghma te khaw, mang aka man khaw a ol hnatun pah boeh. Na ming uh ham tah nangmih loh BOEIPA na Pathen aka noemcai rhung la na om uh ve. BOEIPA na Pathen te na thinko boeih na hinglu boeih neh lungnah lah.
Then give no attention to the words of that prophet or that dreamer of dreams: for the Lord your God is testing you, to see if all the love of your heart and soul is given to him.
4 BOEIPA na Pathen hnuk te vai lamtah amah te rhih lah. A olpaek te ngaithuen lamtah a ol te hnatun lah. Amah taengah thothueng lamtah amah dongah hangdang lah.
But keep on in the ways of the Lord your God, fearing him and keeping his orders and hearing his voice, worshipping him and being true to him.
5 A khuiah pongpa ham na Pathen BOEIPA loh nang n'uen longpuei lamloh nangmih heh hamla, Egypt khohmuen lamloh nangmih aka khuen, sal imkhui lamloh nang aka lat, nangmih kah Pathen BOEIPA taengah koeknah aka thui tah, tonghma khaw, mang aka man khaw, duek saeh. Te dongah boethae te na khui lamloh khoe.
And that prophet or that dreamer of dreams is to be put to death; for his words were said with the purpose of turning you away from the Lord your God, who took you out of the land of Egypt and made you free from the prison-house; and of forcing you out of the way in which the Lord your God has given you orders to go. So you are to put away the evil from among you.
6 Na nu pakhat kah a ca na manuca long khaw, na capa long khaw, na canu long khaw, na rhang dongkah na yuu long khaw, namah hinglu bangla na lungnah na hui mai long khaw yinhnuk ah nang m'vueh tih, “Cet uh sih lamtah namah neh na pa rhoek loh a ming mueh a tloe pathen,
If your brother, the son of your mother, or your son or your daughter or the wife of your heart, or the friend who is as dear to you as your life, working on you secretly says to you, Let us go and give worship to other gods, strange to you and to your fathers;
7 na kaepvai kah pilnam rhoek neh khohla khoyoei, kho bawt lamkah kho bawt patoeng loh a bawk pathen te thothueng uh sih,” a ti mai ni.
Gods of the peoples round about you, near or far, from one end of the earth to the other;
8 Anih taengla bung boel lamtah a ol te hnatun pah boeh. Na mik long khaw anih te rhen boel saeh. Te dongah lungma ti boel lamtah anih te dah boeh.
Do not be guided by him or give attention to him; have no pity on him or mercy, and give him no cover;
9 Anih te na ngawn rhoe na ngawn ni. Na kut te anih ngawn ham lamhma kah bangla anih soah om saeh. Hmailong ah pilnam boeih kah a kut khaw om saeh.
But put him to death without question; let your hand be the first stretched out against him to put him to death, and then the hands of all the people.
10 Egypt kho neh sal imkhui lamkah nang aka khuen BOEIPA na Pathen taeng lamloh heh hamla nang aka mae te lungto neh dae lamtah duek saeh.
Let him be stoned with stones till he is dead; because it was his purpose to make you false to the Lord your God, who took you out of the land of Egypt, out of the prison-house.
11 Te daengah ni Israel pum loh a yaak uh vaengah a rhih uh vetih nangmih taengah hebang hno thae saii hamla a khoep pawt eh.
And all Israel, hearing of it, will be full of fear, and no one will again do such evil as this among you.
12 Na khopuei khuikah hlang khat khat loh, “Teah khosak sak ham BOEIPA na Pathen loh nang m'paek coeng,” a ti vaengah,
And if word comes to you, in one of the towns which the Lord your God is giving you for your resting-place,
13 namah khui lamkah hlang muen ca rhoek neh khopuei kah khosa rhoek aka heh loh thoo uh tih, “Cet uh sih lamtah na ming noek pawh pathen tloe taengah thothueng uh sih,” a ti uh te na yaak atah,
That good-for-nothing persons have gone out from among you, turning the people of their town from the right way and saying, Let us go and give worship to other gods, of whom you have no knowledge;
14 Na cae vetih na khe ni. Tuektuek na dawt tih na khui ah tueilaehkoi hno a saii te oltak la a om atah,
Then let a full search be made, and let questions be put with care; and if it is true and certain that such a disgusting thing has been done among you;
15 Khopuei kah khosa boeih te na ngawn rhoe na ngawn ni. Te te cunghang ha neh thup lamtah a khuikah boeih neh a rhamsa khaw cunghang ha neh thup pah.
Then take up arms against the people of that town and give it up to the curse, with all its cattle and everything in it.
16 A kutbuem boeih te a toltung khui la coi pah lamtah hmai neh hoeh pah. Khopuei neh a kutbuem boeih na BOEIPA Pathen ham boeih saeh. Te vaengah a khopuei te kumhal due imrhong la om saeh lamtah thoh voel boel saeh.
And take all the goods into the middle of its open space, burning the town and all its property with fire as an offering to the Lord your God; it is to be a waste for ever; there is to be no more building there.
17 Yaehtaboeih la aka om boeih tah na kut dongah kap boel saeh. Te daengah ni BOEIPA loh thintoek thinsa khui lamkah mael vetih nang taengah haidamnah a khueh eh. Te vaengah nang n'haidam vetih na pa rhoek taengkah a toemngam vanbangla na ping van ni.
Keep not a thing of what is cursed for yourselves: so the Lord may be turned away from the heat of his wrath, and have mercy on you, and give you increase as he said in his oath to your fathers:
18 BOEIPA na Pathen kah ol te na ngai atah tihnin ah kai loh nang kang uen olpaek boeih ngaithuen. BOEIPA na Pathen kah mikhmuh ah a thuem ni saii ham a om.
So long as you give ear to the voice of the Lord your God, and keep all his orders which I give you today, and do what is right in the eyes of the Lord your God.
