And they rebelled against me and not they were willing to listen to me anyone [the] detestable things of eyes their not they threw away and [the] idols of Egypt not they forsook and I said to pour out rage my on them to complete anger my on them in [the] midst of [the] land of Egypt.
9 Tedae ka ming ham ka saii dongah namtom mikhmuh ah ka poeih sak pawh. Te rhoek lakli ah khaw amih ham tah amamih mikhmuh ah ka phoe pah tih Egypt khohmuen lamloh amih kang khuen.
And I acted for [the] sake of name my to not to be profaned to [the] eyes of the nations which they [were] in midst of them which I had made myself known to them to eyes their by bringing out them from [the] land of Egypt.
10 Te vaengah amih te Egypt khohmuen lamloh ka khuen uh tih amih te khosoek la ka thak.
And I brought out them from [the] land of Egypt and I brought them into the wilderness.
11 Amih taengah ka khosing ka paek tih ka laitloeknah te amih ka ming sak. Te te aka vai hlang daeng ni te nen te a hing eh.
And I gave to them statutes my and judgments my I made known to them which he will do them the person and he will live by them.
12 Ka Sabbath te khaw kamah laklo neh amih laklo ah miknoek la om ham neh, BOEIPA kamah loh amih ka ciim te ming sak ham amih taengah ka paek.

22 Tedae ka kut he ka yueh tih ka ming ham ka saii dongah namtom mikhmuh ah poeih uh pawh. Amih te te rhoek mikhmuh lamloh ka khuen.
And I turned back hand my and I acted for [the] sake of name my to not to be profaned to [the] eyes of the nations which I brought out them to eyes their.
23 Namtom taengah amih taekyak ham neh diklai ah amih haeh ham khosoek ah amih te ka kut ka phuel thil bal.
