Olrhaepnah 25
1 Hlang rhoi laklo ah tuituknah a om atah laitloeknah la thoeih rhoi saeh lamtah amih rhoi ham laitloek pa uh saeh. Te vaengah aka dueng te tang sak uh saeh lamtah aka halang te boe sak uh saeh.
If there is a controversy between men, and they come to judgement and the judges judge them, then they shall justify the righteous and condemn the wicked.
2 Aka halang tah a boh ca hamla om ni. Te vaengah aka halang te lai aka tloek loh bakop sak saeh lamtah a halangnah tarhing neh a ting la a mikhmuh ah taam saeh.
It shall be, if the wicked man is worthy to be beaten, that the judge shall cause him to lie down and to be beaten before his face, according to his wickedness, by number.
3 Anih te voei sawmli lakah a pueh la taam boeh. A pueh la na taam tih hmasoe yet koinih na manuca te na mikhmuh ah rhaidaeng la om ve.
He may sentence him to no more than forty stripes. He shall not give more, lest if he should give more and beat him more than that many stripes, then your brother will be degraded in your sight.
4 Vaito khaw cang a til vaengah a ka poi pah boeh.
You shall not muzzle the ox when he treads out the grain.
5 Manuca thikat la om uh tih amih khuikah pakhat te ca a om mueh la a duek atah aka duek kah a yuu te imlang kah kholong hlang loh lo boel saeh. Anih te a vahoi rhoek loh kun thil saeh. Amah yuu la lo saeh lamtah yucanah saeh.
If brothers dwell together, and one of them dies and has no son, the wife of the dead shall not be married outside to a stranger. Her husband’s brother shall go in to her, and take her as his wife, and perform the duty of a husband’s brother to her.
6 Te vaengah caming a cun loh a manuca aka duek ming te thoh pah saeh. Te daengah ni anih ming khaw Israel khui lamloh a hmata pawt eh.
It shall be that the firstborn whom she bears shall succeed in the name of his brother who is dead, that his name not be blotted out of Israel.
7 Tekah hlang loh a maya yuu te loh ham a ngaih pawt atah a maya yuu khaw vongka khuikah patong rhoek taengah puen saeh lamtah, “Israel khuiah a manuca ming thoh pah ham neh kai yucanah ham a aal tih kai yucanah ham a huem moenih,” ti nah saeh.
If the man doesn’t want to take his brother’s wife, then his brother’s wife shall go up to the gate to the elders, and say, “My husband’s brother refuses to raise up to his brother a name in Israel. He will not perform the duty of a husband’s brother to me.”
8 Te phoeiah khopuei patong rhoek loh anih te khue uh saeh lamtah amah te dawt uh saeh. Tedae ning mangkhak tih, “Anih loh ham ka ngaih moenih,” a ti atah,
Then the elders of his city shall call him, and speak to him. If he stands and says, “I don’t want to take her,”
9 a maya yuu khaw patong rhoek kah mikhmuh ah anih taengla thoeih saeh lamtah a kho dongkah khokhom te dul pah saeh. A maelhmai te a timthoeih pah phoeiah doo saeh lamtah, “A manuca kah im aka thoh pawt hlang te he tlam he saii pah kangna saeh,” ti nah saeh.
then his brother’s wife shall come to him in the presence of the elders, and loose his sandal from off his foot, and spit in his face. She shall answer and say, “So shall it be done to the man who does not build up his brother’s house.”
10 Te dongah anih ming te Israel khuikah khokhom aka dul imkhui la khue uh saeh.
His name shall be called in Israel, “The house of him who had his sandal removed.”
11 Hlang rhoek te hlang pakhat neh a manuca khaw rhenten hnuei uh thae mai ni. Te vaengah a hlang te anih aka ngawn kut lamloh huul hamla pakhat yuu te ha pawk mai ni. Te vaengah a yuu loh a kut a yueng tih a yah te a thoh atah.
When men strive against each other, and the wife of one draws near to deliver her husband out of the hand of him who strikes him, and puts out her hand, and grabs him by his private parts,
12 a kut te tloek pah lamtah na mik long khaw rhen boel saeh.
then you shall cut off her hand. Your eye shall have no pity.
13 Na sungsa khuikah aka om lungcang pakhat neh pakhat te khaw a yit a len om boel saeh.
You shall not have in your bag diverse weights, one heavy and one light.
14 Na im khuikah na cangnoek te khaw cangnoek a yit a len om boel saeh.
You shall not have in your house diverse measures, one large and one small.
15 Na coilung te a rhuemtuet neh a duengnah om saeh lamtah na cangnoek khaw a rhoeh khoeng neh a thuem balh la om saeh. Te daengah ni BOEIPA na Pathen loh nang m'paek khohmuen ah na hinglung a vang eh.
You shall have a perfect and just weight. You shall have a perfect and just measure, that your days may be long in the land which the LORD your God gives you.
16 Te dumlai aka vai neh aka saii boeih tah BOEIPA na Pathen kah a tueilaehkoi ni.
For all who do such things, all who do unrighteously, are an abomination to the LORD your God.
17 Egypt lamkah na lo tih longpueng ah Amalek loh nang soah a saii te poek lah.
Remember what Amalek did to you by the way as you came out of Egypt,
18 Longpuei ah nang m'mah tih nang lamkah lamhnuk boeih te nang hnukah a tloek. Na buhmueh rhathih neh na bonghnaek vaengah Pathen khaw a rhih moenih.
how he met you by the way, and struck the rearmost of you, all who were feeble behind you, when you were faint and weary; and he didn’t fear God.
19 Tedae nang taengah rho la pang sak ham BOEIPA na Pathen loh m'paek khohmuen kaepvai kah na thunkha rhoek boeih kut lamkah te BOEIPA na Pathen loh n'khoem bitni. Te vaengah Amalek poekkoepnah te vaan hmui lamloh khoe ham hnilh boeh.
Therefore it shall be, when the LORD your God has given you rest from all your enemies all around, in the land which the LORD your God gives you for an inheritance to possess it, that you shall blot out the memory of Amalek from under the sky. You shall not forget.
