Olrhaepnah 7
1 Khohmuen pang ham na BOEIPA Pathen loh nang n'khuen tih na kun thil vaengah Khitti neh Girgashi khaw, Amori neh Kanaani khaw, Perizzi neh Khivee khaw, Jebusi neh nang lakah aka tlung aka ping namtu parhih te na mikhmuh lamkah muep a biit.
The Lord your God is going to lead you into the land that you are taking over in order to own it, and will drive out ahead of you many other nations: the Hittites, Girgashites, Amorites, Canaanites, Perizzites, Hivites, and Jebusites, seven nations that are larger and stronger than you.
2 Amih te na BOEIPA Pathen loh nang taengla han tloeng vaengah ngawn lamtah thup rhoe la thup. Amih neh moi khaw bop boeh. Amih te rhen boeh.
When the Lord your God has handed them over to you to defeat them, then you must set them apart for destruction. Don't make any peace treaty with them and don't show them any mercy.
3 Amih neh yuva uh thae boeh. Na canu khaw a capa taengla pae boeh. A canu khaw na capa ham loh pah boeh.
Don't intermarry with them. Don't let your daughters marry their sons or have their daughters marry your sons,
4 Na capa te kai hnuk lamloh nong tih pathen tloe rhoek taengah tho a thueng mai ni. Te vaengah BOEIPA kah thintoek loh nang taengah sai vetih nang te tlek m'mitmoeng sak ni.
because they will lead your children away from following me to worship other gods. Then the Lord will be angry with you, and he will quickly come and kill you.
5 Tedae amih taengah na saii ham ngawn tah amih kah hmueihtuk te phil pah lamtah kaam te khaw boh pah. Amih kah Asherah te vung pah lamtah a mueidaep te hmai neh hoeh pah.
On the contrary, this is what you are to do to them: tear down their altars, knock down their idolatrous pillars, cut down their Asherah poles, and burn down their idols.
6 Nang tah na BOEIPA Pathen ham aka cim pilnam la na om tih diklai hman kah pilnam boeih khuiah pilnam lungthen la amah taengah om ham ni na BOEIPA Pathen loh nang n'coelh.
For you are the Lord your God's holy people. The Lord your God has chosen you to be his own special people, valued above all other peoples on the earth.
7 Pilnam boeih lakah na pungtai dongah nangmih te BOEIPA loh m'ven moenih. Pilnam boeih lakah na hlangsii uh dongah ni nangmih te n'coelh.
It wasn't because there were so many of you that the Lord loved you more than any other nation, in fact he chose you though there were so few of you.
8 Tedae na BOEIPA kah lungnah loh na pa rhoek taengah a caeng olhlo te a ngaithuen dongah BOEIPA loh tlungluen kut neh nang n'khuen tih Egypt manghai Pharaoh kut dongkah sal im lamkah nang te n'lat coeng.
However, because the Lord loved you and kept the promise he gave to your forefathers, He led you out by his power and rescued you from the prison-house of slavery, from the rule of Pharaoh, king of Egypt.
9 Te dongah BOEIPA na Pathen, Pathen amah kah a paipi te a cak la aka ngaithuen neh amah aka lungnah tih a olpaek te a olpaek bangla aka ngaithuen taengah cadilcahma thawngkhat duela sitlohnah Pathen la om tila ming lah.
That's why you can be sure that the Lord your God is the true God, the faithful God who keeps his agreement based on trustworthy love to a thousand generations of those who love him and keep his commandments.
10 Tedae amah aka hmuhuet te a mikhmuh ah a thuung vetih milh sak ham khaw uelh mahpawh. Anih aka hmuhuet te tah a mikhmuh ah a thuung ni.
But he doesn't hesitate to pay back those who hate him by destroying them.
11 Te dongah kai loh tihnin ah nang kang uen olpaek neh oltlueh khaw, laitloeknah khaw na vai ham te ngaithuen.
So keep the commandments and rules and regulations that I'm giving you to follow today.
12 Laitloeknah he na yaak coeng dongah ngaithuen lamtah vai laeh. Te daengah ni BOEIPA na Pathen loh nang taengkah paipi neh na pa rhoek taengah a toemngam sitlohnah te a ngaithuen eh.
If you listen to these regulations and are careful to observe them, then the Lord your God will keep his agreement and the trustworthy love that he promised to your forefathers.
13 Nang n'lungnah vetih na yoe han then sak ni. Nang taengah paek ham na pa rhoek taengah a caeng khohmuen ah nang te n'rhoeng sak vetih na bungko thaihtae neh na khohmuen thingthaih na cangpai khaw, na misur thai neh na situi khaw, na saelhung saelca neh na boiva khuikah suentae thai khaw yoethen a paek ni.
He will love you and bless you and give you many descendants. He will bless your children and the crops your land produces—your grain, new wine, and olive oil, the calves of your cattle herds and the lambs of your flocks—in the land that he promised your forefathers to give you.
14 Pilnam rhoek boeih lakah yoethen la na om vetih na khuiah caya neh na rhamsa dongah khaw aka ting khaw om mahpawh.
You will be blessed more than any other nation; none of you will be childless, and none of your livestock will fail to have young.
15 BOEIPA loh nang taengkah tlohtat boeih te a khoe vetih Egypt kah tloh thae na ming boeih long khaw nang m'phoei mahpawh. Tedae na lunguet rhoek boeih te tah a phoei ni.
The Lord will keep you from having any kind of sickness. He will not let you have any of the terrible diseases you saw in Egypt, but he will let all who hate you suffer from them.
16 Te dongah BOEIPA na Pathen loh nang taengah m'paek pilnam boeih te hlawp lamtah na mik long khaw amih te rhen boel saeh. Nang taengah hlaeh la aka om amih kah pathen rhoek taengah khaw thothueng boeh.
You are to destroy all the nations the Lord your God hands over to you. Don't look on them with sympathy. Don't worship their gods, for that will end up being a trap to you.
17 Na thinko nen tah, 'Kai lakah aka ping namtu rhoek he huul ham metlam ka coeng thai eh,’ na ti mai ngawn ni.
You may say to yourselves, “These nations are stronger than us. How on earth can we drive them out?”
18 BOEIPA na Pathen loh Pharaoh taeng neh Egypt pum taengah a saii te poek rhoe poek lamtah amih te rhih boeh.
But don't be afraid of them. Make sure you remember what the Lord your God did to Pharaoh and the whole of Egypt:
19 Na mik loh noemcainah muep a hmuh phoeiah miknoek, kopoekrhai, tlungluen kut neh ban a yueng tih BOEIPA na Pathen loh nang n'khuen coeng. Te vanbangla a mikhmuh ah nang loh na rhih pilnam rhoek boeih te khaw BOEIPA na Pathen loh a saii ni.
the amazing tests you witnessed, the signs and miracles, the great power and incredible strength the Lord your God used to lead you out. The Lord your God is going to deal with all the nations you're currently afraid of in the same way.
20 Aka sueng rhoek neh na mikhmuh lamkah aka ying rhoek te a milh duela BOEIPA na Pathen loh amih taengah khoingal a tueih bal ni.
On top of this, the Lord your God will send the hornet against them until anyone who has survived and anyone hiding from you have been killed.
21 BOEIPA na Pathen tah nang dongah boeilen Pathen neh a rhih a om coeng dongah amih hmai ah na sarhing sak boeh.
Don't be frightened of these nations, for the Lord your God, who is with you, is a powerful and awesome God.
22 Namtom rhoek te khaw BOEIPA na Pathen loh na mikhmuh lamkah vawlh vawlh a biit bitni. Amih te thup koeloe ham coeng mahpawh, na taengah kohong mulhing la ha pung ve.
The Lord your God will drive out these nations ahead of you in stages. You won't be able to get rid of them all at the same time, or you'd be overwhelmed by wild animals.
23 Tedae amih te BOEIPA na Pathen loh na mikhmuh ah han tloeng vetih soekloeknah a len neh a mit uh due amih te a pangngawl sak ni.
But the Lord your God will hand them over to you and throw them into a terrible panic, until they are wiped out.
24 Amih kah manghai rhoek te khaw nang kut dongla m'paek vaengah amih ming te vaan hmui ah na milh sak vetih na mikhmuh ah pakhat kangna khaw a pai pawt hilah amih te na mit sak ni.
He will give their defeated kings to you to be killed, and even their names will be forgotten. No one will be able to withstand you; you will completely destroy them.
25 Amih kah pathen mueidaep te hmai neh hoeh pah. A pum dongkah sui neh cak khaw nai boeh. BOEIPA na Pathen kah tueilaehkoi te namah ham na lo vetih te long te n'hlaeh ve.
You must burn the idols of their god. Don't desire the silver and gold that covers them. Don't take it or otherwise it will be a trap for you because the Lord your God detests anything to do with idols.
26 Na im khuila tueilaehkoi te khuen boeh. Tuei ham koi te na tuei vanbangla yaehtaboeih la na om vetih yaehtaboeih la aka om te khaw na tuei rhoe na tuei ham om.
Don't bring any detestable idol into your house, otherwise you will treated just like it—by being set apart for destruction. You are to treat idols as totally despicable, and stay far away from them, because they are set apart for destruction.
