Olrhaepnah 14
1 Nangmih tah BOEIPA na Pathen kah koca rhoek ni. Aka duek ham na saa hlap pah boeh. Na mik rhoi laklote lungawng la khueh boeh.
Ye are the children of the LORD your God: ye shall not cut yourselves, nor make any baldness between your eyes for the dead.
2 BOEIPA na Pathen kah pilnam cim la na om uh dongah diklai hman kah pilnam boeih khuiah pilnam lungthen bangla amah hut la om hamni BOEIPAloh nang n'coelh.
For thou art an holy people to the LORD thy God, and the LORD hath chosen thee to be a special people to himself, above all the nations that are upon the earth.
3 Tueilaehkoi boeih tah ca boeh.
Thou shalt not eat any abominable thing.
4 Rhamsa dongah he vaito, tu dongkah boiva neh maae dongkah boiva,
These are the beasts which ye shall eat: the ox, the sheep, and the goat,
5 rhangrhaeh kirhang neh sayuk, sathai, sayaa, cuung neh tlang kah tu te cauh.
The hart, and the roebuck, and the fallow deer, and the wild goat, and the pygarg, and the wild ox, and the chamois.
6 Khomaeaka rhak rhamsa boeih khuiah khawa khomae rhoi laklo kah a khorhaekaka rhaktih caknaihaka naih rhamsa khuikah te mah cauh.
And every beast that parteth the hoof, and cleaveth the cleft into two claws, and cheweth the cud among the beasts, that ye shall eat.
7 Tedae canaihaka naih neh khomaeaka rhak tih aka rhek khuiah he he cauh boeh. Kalauk, saveh neh saphih he caknaiha naih daea khomaea rhak pawt dongah nangmih ham rhalawt.
Nevertheless these ye shall not eat of them that chew the cud, or of them that divide the cloven hoof; the camel, and the hare, and the coney: for they chew the cud, but divide not the hoof; therefore they are unclean to you.
8 Ok he a khomae rhak dae caknaiha tal dongah nangmih ham rhalawt. A saa te cauh boeh, a rhok te khaw benuh boeh.
And the swine, because it divideth the hoof, yet cheweth not the cud, is unclean to you: ye shall not eat of their flesh, nor touch their dead carcase.
9 Tui dongah aka om boeih lamkahna caak uh koi lamtah, a pum dongaha phae neha lip aka om boeih tena caak uh thai.
These ye shall eat of all that are in the waters: all that have fins and scales shall ye eat:
10 A pum dongaha phae neha lip aka om pawt boeih tah nangmih ham rhalawt, cauh boeh.
And whatever hath not fins and scales ye may not eat; it is unclean to you.
11 Vaa boeih khuiah aka caih te na caak uh thai.
Of all clean birds ye shall eat.
12 Tedae atha, langta neh thamuk,
But these are they of which ye shall not eat: the eagle, and the ossifrage, and the ospray,
13 khangkham, maisi, neh valae kah a hui boeih,
And the glede, and the kite, and the vulture after his kind,
14 vangak boeih neh anih hui boeih,
And every raven after his kind,
15 tuirhuk, vanu, kirhoeng, khangkhoe, mutlo neh anih hui boeih,
And the owl, and the night hawk, and the cuckow, and the hawk after his kind,
16 thathawt, saelbu, abuu,
The little owl, and the great owl, and the swan,
17 khosoek saelbu, tamcu, tuiliim,
And the pelican, and the gier eagle, and the cormorant,
18 bungrho, kaikoi neh anih hui boeih, thongpanai neh pumphak te cauh boeh.
And the stork, and the heron after her kind, and the lapwing, and the bat.
19 Vaa bangla aka om rhulcai boeih khaw nangmih ham rhalawt. Te te cauh boeh.
And every creeping thing that flieth is unclean to you: they shall not be eaten.
20 Aka cuem vaa boeih te tah na caak uh thai.
But of all clean fowls ye may eat.
21 Maehrhok boeih ke cauh boeh. Na vongka khuiah aka om yinlai te pae lamtah ca mai saeh. Te pawt atah kholong taeng lam khaw yoi mai. Nang tah BOEIPA na Pathen kah pilnam cim la na om dongah boiva cate a manu suktui dongah thong thil boeh.
Ye shall not eat of any thing that dieth of itself: thou shalt give it to the stranger that is in thy gates, that he may eat it; or thou mayest sell it to an alien: for thou art an holy people to the LORD thy God. Thou shalt not boil a kid in his mother’s milk.
22 Kum khat kum khat ah khohmuen lamkah aka thoeng na cangtia vueithaih boeih te parha pakhat la na duen rhoe na duen ni.
Thou shalt truly tithe all the increase of thy seed, that the field bringeth forth year by year.
23 Na cangpai, na misur thai, na situi parha pakhat khaw, na saelhung neh na boiva cacuek khaw, a ming phuk thil hama tuek hmuen kah BOEIPA na Pathen kah mikhmuh ahna caak ni. Te daengahni BOEIPA na Pathen te hnin takuemah rhih hamna cang pueng eh.
And thou shalt eat before the LORD thy God, in the place which he shall choose to place his name there, the tithe of thy grain, of thy wine, and of thy oil, and the firstlings of thy herds and of thy flocks; that thou mayest learn to fear the LORD thy God always.
24 Tedae namah taeng lamloh longpuei sen tih amah ming phuk thil ham BOEIPA na Pathenloh a coelh hmuen te namah lamloha hlavak dongah khuen hamla a coeng pawt oeh atah, BOEIPA na Pathen kah yoethen paek te tangka la khueh.
And if the way is too long for thee, so that thou art not able to carry it; or if the place is too far from thee, which the LORD thy God shall choose to set his name there, when the LORD thy God hath blessed thee:
25 Te phoeiah tangkate namah kut dongah yom lamtah BOEIPA na Pathenloh amah hama coelh hmuen la caeh puei.
Then shalt thou turn it into money, and bind up the money in thy hand, and shalt go to the place which the LORD thy God shall choose:
26 Te vaengah na hingluloh a nai sarhui boeih dongkah ham tangka te hnonah. Saelhung khaw, boiva misur khaw, yu khaw na hinglu neh na hoe boeih te tah BOEIPA na Pathen kah mikhmuh ah ca lamtah namah neh na imkhuikho loh na kohoesakuh.
And thou shalt bestow that money for whatever thy soul desireth, for oxen, or for sheep, or for wine, or for strong drink, or for whatever thy soul desireth: and thou shalt eat there before the LORD thy God, and thou shalt rejoice, thou, and thy household,
27 Na vongka khuikah Levi khaw hnoo boeh. Anih te nang taengah khoyo neh rho a khueh moenih.
And the Levite that is within thy gates; thou shalt not forsake him; for he hath no part nor inheritance with thee.
28 Kum thuma thok kum kah na cangah parha pakhat boeih tena khuen vetih na vongka khuiahna tung ni.
At the end of three years thou shalt bring forth all the tithe of thy increase the same year, and shalt lay it up within thy gates:
29 Na khuiah khaw a taengah khoyo neh rhoaka mueh tah Levi khaw, na vongka khuikah yinlai khaw, cadah neh nuhmai khaw, ha kun mai khaming. Te vaengah ca uh saeh lamtah cung uh saeh. Te daengahni na kut dongkah bitatna saii boeih te na Pathen BOEIPAloh nang yoethen m'paek eh.
And the Levite, (because he hath no part nor inheritance with thee, ) and the stranger, and the fatherless, and the widow, who are within thy gates, shall come, and shall eat and be satisfied; that the LORD thy God may bless thee in all the work of thy hand which thou doest.
