Thothuengnah 17
1 Moses te BOEIPA loh a voek tih,
Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
2 “Aaron, anih koca rhoek neh Israel ca rhoek boeih te voek lamtah thui ham koi tah, BOEIPA kah a uen bangla olka he amih taengah thui pah.
“Speak to Aaron and to his sons, and to all the people of Israel. Tell them what Yahweh has commanded:
3 Israel imkhui lamkah hlang khat khat loh vaito mai khaw, tuca mai khaw, maae mai khaw rhaehhmuen ah a ngawn tih rhaehhmuen vongvoel ah khaw a ngawn mai ni.
'Any man from Israel who kills an ox, lamb, or goat in the camp, or who kills it outside the camp, in order to sacrifice it—
4 Te vaengah BOEIPA dungtlungim hmai kah BOEIPA taengah nawnnah la nawn ham tingtunnah dap thohka ah khuen boel saeh. Tekah hlang te thii aka long sak la poek saeh. Thii a long sak coeng dongah tekah hlang te a pilnam khui lamkah hnawt saeh.
if he does not bring it to the entrance of the tent of meeting to offer it as a sacrifice to Yahweh before his tabernacle, that man is guilty of bloodshed. He has shed blood, and that man must be cut off from among his people.
5 Kohong khaepdan ah a nawn hmueih te khaw Israel ca rhoek loh hang khuen ngawn saeh. Te vaengah tingtunnah dap thohka kah BOEIPA taeng neh khosoih taengah khuen uh saeh lamtah BOEIPA taengah rhoepnah hmueih la nawn uh saeh.
The purpose of this command is so that the people of Israel will bring their sacrifices to Yahweh at the entrance to the tent of meeting, to the priest to be sacrificed as fellowship offerings to Yahweh, instead of offering sacrifices in an open field.
6 Te vaengah thii te tingtunnah dap thohka kah BOEIPA hmueihtuk dongah khosoih loh haeh saeh. Te phoeiah maehtha te BOEIPA taengah hmuehmuei botui la phum saeh.
The priest will sprinkle the blood on Yahweh's altar at the entrance to the tent of meeting; he will burn the fat for it to produce a sweet aroma for Yahweh.
7 Tedae amih loh a taengah a cukhalh puei uh maae taengah amamih kah hmueih koep nawn uh boel saeh. He tah amamih ham neh a cadilcahma ham khaw kumhal khosing la om saeh.
The people must no longer offer their sacrifices to goat idols, for which they act as prostitutes. This will be a permanent statute for them throughout their people's generations.'
8 Te phoeiah Israel imkhui kah hlang boeih neh amih lakli kah aka bakuep tih hmueihhlutnah hmueih aka nawn yinlai khaw thui pah.
You must say to them, 'Any man of Israel, or any foreigner who lives among them, who offers a burnt offering or sacrifice
9 BOEIPA taengah nawn ham kangna khaw tingtunnah dap thohka la a khuen pawt atah tekah hlang te a pilnam lamkah hnawt saeh.
and does not bring it to the entrance of the tent of meeting in order to sacrifice it to Yahweh, that man must be cut off from his people.
10 Israel imkhui lamkah hlang khat khat long khaw, amih lakli kah aka bakuep yinlai lamkah long khaw thii khat khat ni a caak atah ka hmai ka khueh thil ni. Thii aka ca hinglu te pilnam khui lamloh ka hnawt ni.
If any person of the house of Israel, or any foreigner who lives among them consumes any blood, I will set my face against that person who consumes blood and I will cut him off from among his people.
11 Ba dongah tikoinih pumsa kah hinglu he thii dongah om. Te dongah nangmih kah hinglu ham hmueihtuk soah na dawth uh vaengah hinglu thii la dawth ham ni kai loh nangmih taengah kam paek.
For the life of an animal is in its blood. I have given its blood to you to make atonement on the altar for your lives, because it is the blood that makes atonement, for it is the blood that atones for the life.
12 Te dongah, ‘Israel ca rhoek nangmih lamkah hinglu boeih loh thii ca uh boel lamtah, nangmih lakli kah aka bakuep yinlai long khaw thii te ca boel saeh,’ ka ti.
Therefore I said to the people of Israel that no one among you must eat blood, neither may any foreigner who lives among you eat blood.
13 Tedae Israel ca rhoek khui lamkah hlang khat khat long mai khaw, amih lakli kah aka bakuep yinlai long mai mulhing saa neh vaa te a yuep tih a caak oeh atah a thii te ci saeh lamtah laipi neh vuei saeh.
Anyone of the people of Israel, or any of the foreigners who live among them, who hunts and kills an animal or bird that may be eaten, that person must pour out its blood and cover the blood with earth.
14 Pumsa boeih kah hinglu tah a thii dongah om tih a thii khaw a hinglu dongah om. Te dongah, ‘Pumsa khat khat kah a thii tah ca uh boeh. Pumsa boeih kah hinglu, a thii aka ca boeih tah hnawt saeh,’ tila Israel ca rhoek taengah ka thui.
For the life of each creature is its blood. That is why I said to the people of Israel, “You must not eat the blood of any creature, for the life of every living creature is its blood. Whoever eats it must be cut off.”
15 Te phoeiah tolrhum mupoe neh yinlai khuikah hinglu boeih loh maehrhok neh saha te a caak atah a himbai te suk saeh lamtah tui hlu saeh. Kholaeh due aka poeih uh la om saeh lamtah caihcil saeh.
Every person who eats an animal that has died or that has been torn by wild animals, whether that person is native born or a foreigner living among you, he must wash his clothes and bathe himself in water, and he will be unclean until the evening. Then he will be clean.
16 Tedae himbai te suk pawt tih a pum te a silh pawt atah amah kah thaesainah te amah loh phuei van saeh,” a ti nah.
But if he does not wash his clothes or bathe his body, then he must carry his guilt.'”
