'When a man doth take a wife, and hath married her, and it hath been, if she doth not find grace in his eyes (for he hath found in her nakedness of anything), and he hath written for her a writing of divorce, and given [it] into her hand, and sent her out of his house,
2 Tedae anih im lamloh coe tih a caeh van coeng atah hlang tloe hut la om coeng.
and she hath gone out of his house, and hath gone and been another man's,

and the latter man hath hated her, and written for her a writing of divorce, and given [it] into her hand, and sent her out of his house, or when the latter man dieth, who hath taken her to himself for a wife:

'Her former husband who sent her away is not able to turn back to take her to be to him for a wife, after that she hath become defiled; for an abomination it [is] before Jehovah, and thou dost not cause the land to sin which Jehovah thy God is giving to thee — an inheritance.
5 A thai la yuu aka lo hlang loh caempuei taengah nuen boel lamtah a pum dongah bitat pakhat khaw phuei boel saeh. Kum khat tah amah im ah ommongsitoe la om saeh lamtah a yuu a loh te a kohoe puei saeh.
'When a man taketh a new wife, he doth not go out into the host, and [one] doth not pass over unto him for anything; free he is at his own house one year, and hath rejoiced his wife whom he hath taken.
6 Kuelhsum neh leng khaw laikoi boeh, teka te a hinglu ni na laikoi.
'None doth take in pledge millstones, and rider, for life it [is] he is taking in pledge.

'When a man is found stealing a person, of his brethren, of the sons of Israel, and hath tyrannized over him, and sold him, then hath that thief died, and thou hast put away the evil thing out of thy midst.
8 Bahoeng ngaithuen ham koi dongah hmaibae tloh he ngaithuen. Te dongah amih ka uen vanbangla Levi khosoih rhoek loh nangmih n'thuinuet boeih te saii ham neh vai hamla ngaithuen.
'Take heed, in the plague of leprosy, to watch greatly, and to do according to all that the priests, the Levites, teach you; as I have commanded them ye observe to do;
9 Egypt lamkah na pawk uh phoeikah longpueng ah BOEIPA na Pathen loh Miriam pum dongah a saii te poek uh.
remember that which Jehovah thy God hath done to Miriam in the way, in your coming out of Egypt.
10 Na hui taengah laiba pakhat na hlah tih anih kah hnohol hoe ham te a im khuila paan boeh.
'When thou liftest up on thy brother a debt of anything, thou dost not go in unto his house to obtain his pledge;
11 Kawtpoeng ah ana pai lamtah hnohol te cangpu kung amah loh nang taengah kawtpoeng la hang khuen saeh.
at the outside thou dost stand, and the man on whom thou art lifting [it] up is bringing out unto thee the pledge at the outside.
12 Tedae tekah hlang ni a. mang a daeng oeh atah a hnohol te yalh sak boeh.
'And if he is a poor man, thou dost not lie down with his pledge;
13 Khomik a tlak vaengah a hnohol te amah taengah bal rhoe bal. Te daengah ni a himbai khuila a yalh vaengah nang yoethen m'paek vetih nang ham khaw BOEIPA na Pathen kah mikhmuh ah duengnah la a om eh.
thou dost certainly give back to him the pledge at the going in of the sun, and he hath lain down in his own raiment, and hath blessed thee; and to thee it is righteousness before Jehovah thy God.
14 Na khohmuen kah na vongka ah na manuca lamkah khaw, na yinlai lamkah khaw mangdaeng neh khodaeng kutloh te hnaemtaek boeh.
'Thou dost not oppress a hireling, poor and needy, of thy brethren or of thy sojourner who is in thy land within thy gates;
15 A thapang te amah khohnin dongah pae lamtah a soah khomik tla boel saeh. A mang a daeng dongah a hinglu khaw a thapang neh a duel. Te daengah ni BOEIPA taengla nang m'pang thil vaengah nang soah tholhnah a om pawt eh.
in his day thou dost give his hire, and the sun doth not go in upon it, for he [is] poor, and unto it he is lifting up his soul, and he doth not cry against thee unto Jehovah, and it hath been in thee — sin.
16 A ca rhoek kongah a napa rhoek duek boel saeh lamtah a napa rhoek kongah a ca rhoek duek boel saeh. Hlang boeih he amah tholh dongah boeih duek uh saeh.
'Fathers are not put to death for sons, and sons are not put to death for fathers — each for his own sin, they are put to death.
17 Laitloeknah dongah yinlai te maelh boeh. Nuhmai neh cadah kah himbai khaw laikoi boeh.
'Thou dost not turn aside the judgment of a fatherless sojourner, nor take in pledge the garment of a widow;
18 Egypt ah sal la na om tih BOEIPA na Pathen loh nang n'lat te khaw poek. Te dongah ni tahae kah olka he na vai hamla kai loh nang kang uen.
and thou hast remembered that a servant thou hast been in Egypt, and Jehovah thy God doth ransom thee from thence; therefore I am commanding thee to do this thing.

'When thou reapest thy harvest in thy field, and hast forgotten a sheaf in a field, thou dost not turn back to take it; to the sojourner, to the fatherless, and to the widow, it is; so that Jehovah thy God doth bless thee in all the work of thy hands.
20 Na olive te na hae phoeiah namah loh koep khael voel boeh. Yinlai ham, cadah neh nuhmai ham om pawn saeh.
'When thou beatest thine olive, thou dost not examine the branch behind thee; to the sojourner, to the fatherless, and to the widow, it is.
21 Na misur na bit tangtae te namah loh koep yoep boeh. Yinlai ham, cadah ham neh nuhmai ham mah om pawn saeh.
'When thou cuttest thy vineyard, thou dost not glean behind thee; to the sojourner, to the fatherless, and to the widow, it is;
22 Egypt kho ah sal la na om te khaw poek. Te dongah ni tahae kah olka na vai ham koi he kai loh nang kang uen.
and thou hast remembered that a servant thou hast been in the land of Egypt; therefore I am commanding thee to do this thing.
