Thothuengnah 4
1 Te phoeiah BOEIPA. loh Moses a voek tih,
Then Yahweh said to Moses/me,
2 “Israel ca rhoek te voek lamtah thui pah. Hinglu pakhat loh tohtamaeh ah BOEIPA kah olpaek boeih soah tholh mai ni. A saii tueng pawt khaw a lamkah pakhat khaw a saii mai ni.
“Say this to the Israeli people: This is what must be done if someone sins without intending to sin, doing something that is forbidden in any of Yahweh’s commands.
3 A koelh tangtae khosoih. loh pilnam kah dumlai khuila lai a hmuh atah tekah tholhnah a laihmuh dongah boirhaem la saelhung khuikah vaitotal ca cuemthuek te BOEIPA taengah nawn saeh.
'If the Supreme [MTY] Priest sins, and that causes all the people to be guilty, he must bring to Yahweh a young bull that has no defects. That will be an offering for the sin that he has committed.
4 Te vaengah vaitotal te tingtunnah dap thohka kah BOEIPA mikhmuh la khuen saeh. Te phoeiah a kut te vaito kah a lu soah tloeng saeh lamtah BOEIPA mikhmuh ah vaito te ngawn saeh.
He must bring the bull to the entrance to the Sacred Tent. He must lay his hands on its head. Then he must slaughter it in front of Yahweh [and drain some of the blood into a bowl].
5 A koelh tangtae khosoih. loh vaito thii te lo saeh lamtah tingtunnah dap khuila khuen saeh.
Then the Supreme Priest must take some of that blood into the Sacred Tent.
6 Te phoeiah khosoih. loh a kutdawn te thii khuila nuem saeh lamtah thii te hmuencim hniyan hmai kah BOEIPA mikhmuh ah voei rhih haeh saeh.
He must dip [one of] his fingers into the blood and sprinkle it seven times in the presence of Yahweh, in front of the curtain [that separates the Holy Place from the Very Holy Place].
7 Te phoeiah thii te tingtunnah dap khuikah BOEIPA mikhmuh ah botui bo-ul la hmueihtuk ki dongah khosoih. loh pae saeh. Tedae vaito thii aka coih boeih te tah tingtunnah dap thohka kah hmueihhlutnah hmueihtuk kah khoengim taengah hawk saeh.
Then he must put some of the blood on the projections at the corners of the altar where fragrant incense is burned in the Sacred Tent in the presence of Yahweh. The remaining part of the bull’s blood [that is still in the bowl], he must pour out at the base of the altar, where sacrifices are burned, at the entrance to the Sacred Tent.
8 Boirhaem vaito tha boeih neh a kotak soah khoep aka dah maehtha te khaw, a kotak dongkah a tha boeih te khaw hluep saeh.
From that offering the Supreme Priest must separate these things from the bull that is to be burned: The fat that covers the inner parts of the bull or which is attached to them—
9 A kuel rhoi neh a uen kaep dongkah a tha te khaw, a thin neh a kuel dongkah a thinhnun te khaw hluep saeh.
the kidneys and the fat that is attached to them near the lower back muscle, and the fat that covers the liver.
10 Rhoepnah hmueih vaito kah a tha vanbangla khosoih. loh ludoeng saeh lamtah hmueihhlutnah hmueihtuk dongah phum saeh.
Then the Supreme Priest must completely burn those things on the altar. That will be just like when the fat is removed from an animal that is sacrificed to maintain good fellowship [with Yahweh].
11 Tedae vaito pho neh a saa boeih khaw, a lu neh a kho rhoek khaw, a kotak neh a aek khaw,
But all the other parts of the animal—its skin/hide and all its other meat, its head and its legs, its inner parts and the intestines,
12 vaito pum te rhaehhmuen vongvoel kah maehhloi a lunnah hmuen tlaai la khuen saeh lamtah hoeh saeh. Maehhloi lunnah kah thing hmai dongah hoeh saeh.
he must take outside the camp and throw them in a place that is acceptable to Yahweh, where the ashes are thrown, and he must burn them in a fire on the pile of ashes.
13 Te dongah Israel rhaengpuei pum. loh palang uh tih hlangping mikhmuh lamkah olka a rhael vaengah BOEIPA olpaek boeih khuikah mai khaw saii pawt koi pakhat te a saii uh atah boe uh coeng.
‘If all the Israeli people sin without intending to sin, doing something that is forbidden in any of Yahweh’s commands, they will be guilty, even if they do not realize that they have sinned.
14 Tholh uh tih a tholhnah te amah loh a ming coeng atah saelhung khuikah vaitotal ca te hlangping. loh boirhaem la khuen uh saeh lamtah tingtunnah dap hmai ah tloeng uh saeh.
When they realize that they have committed a sin, together they must bring a young bull to be an offering for their sin, to the front of the Sacred Tent.
15 Te vaengah rhaengpuei khuikah patong rhoek loh BOEIPA mikhmuh kah vaito lu soah a kut tloeng uh saeh. Te phoeiah vaito te BOEIPA mikhmuh ah ngawn uh saeh.
The elders must lay their hands on the bull’s head in the presence of Yahweh and slaughter it [and catch some of the blood in a bowl].
16 Te phoeiah a koelh tangtae khosoih. loh vaito thii te tingtunnah dap khuila khuen saeh.
Then the Supreme [MTY] Priest must take some of that blood into the Sacred Tent.
17 Te phoeiah khosoih loh a kutdawn te thii khuila nuem saeh lamtah hniyan hmai kah BOEIPA mikhmuh ah voei rhih haeh saeh.
‘He must dip [one of] his fingers into the blood and sprinkle it seven times in the presence of Yahweh, in front of the curtain [that separates the Holy Place from the Very Holy Place].
18 thii te khaw tingtunnah dap ah BOEIPA mikhmuh kah hmueihtuk ki dongah pae saeh. Tedae thii aka coih te tingtunnah dap thohka kah hmueihhlutnah hmueihtuk kah khoengim taengah hawk saeh.
Then he must put some of the blood on the projections at the corners of the altar that is in the presence of Yahweh in the Sacred Tent. The remaining part of the bull’s blood, he must pour out at the base of the altar where sacrifices are burned, at the entrance of the Sacred Tent.
19 Te vaengah maehtha boeih te ludoeng saeh lamtah hmueihtuk dongah phum saeh.
He must remove all the animal’s fat and burn it on the altar.
20 A saii vaengah boirhaem vaito a saii vanbangla rhoepnah vaito te saii saeh. Te daengah ni khosoih loh amih ham a dawth pah vetih amih te khodawk a ngai eh.
He must do with this bull the same things that he did with the bull that was an offering for his own sins, and they will be forgiven {Yahweh will forgive them}.
21 Te phoeiah vaito te rhaehhmuen vongvoel la khuen saeh lamtah lamhma kah hlangping kah boirhaem vaito a hoeh bangla hoeh saeh.
Then the priest must take [the other parts of] the bull outside the camp and burn them, like he does when he himself has sinned. That will be the offering for the sin that all the people have committed, and they will be forgiven.
22 Khoboei khaw tholh tih a BOEIPA Pathen kah olpaek khat khat khui lamkah saii pawt koi te tohtamaeh ah a saii vaengah boe coeng.
‘When one of the leaders sins without intending to sin, doing something that is forbidden in any of the commands of Yahweh his God, he will be guilty.
23 Tedae tholhnah dongah a tholh te amah loh a ming van neh nawnnah ham maae a tal ca a cuemthuek te khuen saeh.
When he realizes that he has committed a sin, he must bring as his offering a male goat that has no defects.
24 Maae tal lu soah a kut tloeng saeh. BOEIPA mikhmuh ah hmueihhlutnah a ngawn nah hmuen ah boirhaem te ngawn saeh.
He must lay his hands on the goat’s head in the presence of Yahweh and slaughter it at the place where they slaughter {are slaughtered} the animals that will be completely burned [on the altar]. That will be an offering for his sin.
25 Te phoeiah boirhaem thii te khosoih loh a kutdawn neh lo saeh lamtah hmueihhlutnah hmueihtuk ki dongah pae saeh. Te phoeikah thii te hmueihhlutnah hmueihtuk kah khoengim taengah hawk saeh.
Then the priest must put some of the animal’s blood [into a bowl] and dip [one of] his fingers in it and put some of the blood on the corners of the projections of the altar. Then he must pour out the rest of the blood at the base of the altar.
26 Tedae a tha boeih te rhoepnah hmueih tha bangla hmueihtuk ah phum saeh. Te daengah ni anih kah tholhnah kongah khosoih. loh anih ham a dawth pah vetih khodawk a ngai eh.
Then he must burn all the fat on the altar, as was done with the fat of the offering to maintain good fellowship [with Yahweh]. As a result of the priest’s doing that, the leader will no longer be guilty for his sin and he will be forgiven.
27 BOEIPA olpaek dongkah saii pawt koi khat khat te tolrhum pilnam lamkah hinglu pakhat mai. loh tohtamaeh ah a saii tholh tih boe coeng.
‘If one of the Israeli people who is not a priest sins without intending to sin, and does something that is forbidden in any of the commands of Yahweh his God, he will be guilty.
28 Tedae a tholhnah neh a tholh te amah loh aming atah a tholhnah neh a tholh kongah a nawnnah ham te maae a la ca a cuemthuek te khuen saeh.
When he realizes that he has committed a sin, he must bring as his offering a female goat that has no defects.
29 Te vaengah boirhaem lu soah a kut tloeng saeh lamtah hmueihhlutnah hmuen ah boirhaem te ngawn saeh.
He must lay his hands on the goat’s head and slaughter it at the place where they slaughter the animals that will be completely burned [on the altar, and catch some of the blood in a bowl].
30 Te phoeiah thii te khosoih loh a kutdawn neh lo saeh lamtah hmueihhlutnah hmueihtuk ki dongah pae saeh. Tedae thii kah a coih boeih te hmueihtuk kah khoengim taengah hawk saeh.
Then the priest must dip [one of] his fingers in the blood, and put some of it on the projections at the corners of the altar. Then he must pour out the rest of the blood at the base of the altar.
31 A tha boeih te rhoepnah hmueih tha a hluep vanbangla hluep saeh lamtah BOEIPA taengkah hmuehmuei botui la hmueihtuk dongah khosoih loh phum saeh. Te daengah ni anih ham te khosoih loh a dawth pah vetih anih te khodawk a ngai eh.
Then he must remove all the goat’s fat, and burn all the fat on the altar, like was done with the fat of the offering to maintain fellowship [with Yahweh]. And the aroma while it burns will be pleasing to Yahweh. As a result of the priest doing that, the person will no longer be guilty for his sin, and he will be forgiven.
32 Tedae a nawnnah ham te tuca ni a khuen atah a la a cuemthuek te boirhaem la khuen saeh.
‘If that person brings a lamb to be his offering for sin, he must bring a female lamb that has no defects.
33 Te vaengah boirhaem lu soah a kut tloeng saeh lamtah hmueihhlutnah a ngawn nah hmuen ah boirhaem la ngawn saeh.
He must lay his hands on the lamb’s head and slaughter it at the place where they slaughter the animals that will be completely burned [on the altar, and catch some of the blood in a bowl].
34 Te phoeiah boirhaem thii te khosoih loh a kutdawn neh lo saeh lamtah hmueihhlutnah hmueihtuk ki dongah koelh saeh. Te phoeikah thii aka coih boeih te hmueihtuk kah khoengim taengah hawk saeh.
Then the priest must dip [one of] his fingers in the blood and put some of it on the projections at the corners of the altar. Then he must pour out the rest of the blood at the base of the altar.
35 Tedae a tha boeih te rhoepnah hmueih dongkah tuca tha a hluep vanbangla hluep saeh lamtah BOEIPA kah hmaihlutnah hmueihtuk dongah khosoih loh phum saeh. Te daengah ni anih kah tholhnah kongah khosoih loh a dawth pah vetih a tholh te khodawk a ngai eh?,” a ti nah.
Then he must remove all the lamb’s fat, and burn all the fat on the altar, like was done with the fat of the offering to maintain fellowship [with Yahweh]. He must burn it on top of the other offerings to Yahweh that are being burned. As a result, the priest will request God to forgive that person for his sin, and he will be forgiven.’”
