1 Hnin rhet a lo vaengah Moses. loh Aaron, anih koca rhoek neh Israel kah a hamca rhoek te a khue.

Eight days later, Moses/I summoned the elders of Israel.

2 Te vaengah Aaron taengah, “Namah ham boirhaem la saelhung khuikah vaito ca neh hmueihhlutnah ham tutal a cuemthuek te lo lamtah BOEIPA mikhmuh ah nawn laeh.

Then he/I said to Aaron, “Take a young bull for the offering to enable you leaders to be forgiven for the sins you have committed, and a ram to be completely burned [on the altar], both of them without any defects, and offer them to Yahweh.

3 Te phoeiah Israel ca rhoek te voek lamtah, 'Boirhaem la maae ca, hmueihhlutnah ham vaitoca neh tuca kum khat ca a cuemthuek te lo uh,’ ti nah.

Then say to the Israeli people, ‘Take one male goat for the offering to enable you all to be forgiven for the sins you have committed. Also take a calf and a lamb that have no defects, to be an offering completely burned [on the altar].

4 BOEIPA tah tihnin ah nangmih taengla a phoe ham coeng dongah vaito khaw, tu khaw, situi neh a thoek khocang khaw, BOEIPA mikhmuh ah rhoepnah hmueih la nawn uh laeh,” a ti nah.

Also take an ox and a ram to be an offering to maintain fellowship [with Yahweh], along with an offering of flour mixed with olive oil. Do this because today Yahweh is going to appear to you.’”

5 Te dongah Moses kah a uen te tingtunnah dap hmai la a khuen uh. Te phoeiah rhaengpuei boeih. loh mop uh tih BOEIPA mikhmuh ah pai uh.

[After Moses/I told this to the Israeli people, some of them] took the things that Moses/I had commanded them to take, and went to the courtyard in front of the Sacred Tent. Then all the people came near and stood in front of Yahweh.

6 Te vaengah Moses loh, “BOEIPA. loh ol ng'uen he na vai uh daengah ni nangmih taengah BOEIPA kah thangpomnah a tueng eh?,” a ti nah.

Then Moses/I said, “This is what Yahweh has commanded you to do, in order that his glory will appear to you.”

7 Te phoeiah Moses. loh Aaron taengah, “Hmueihtuk la halo phai. Namah kah boirhaem neh hmueihhlutnah te saii lamtah namah ham neh pilnam ham dawth pah laeh. Te phoeiah pilnam kah nawnnah te saii pah lamtah BOEIPA a uen vanbangla amih ham khaw dawth pah,” a ti nah.

Then Moses/I said to Aaron, “Come to the altar and sacrifice the animal that is your offering to enable you to be forgiven for the sins you have committed, and the animal that will be completely burned there. Because of those offerings, God will forgive you and the people for the sins that you have committed [DOU]. Do those things that Yahweh has commanded.”

8 Te dongah hmueihtuk te Aaron loh a paan tih amah ham boirhaem la vaitoca te a ngawn.

So Aaron came close to the altar and slaughtered the calf to be an offering for his sins.

9 Te phoeiah thii te Aaron koca rhoek loh Aaron taengla a khuen pauh. Te dongah a kutdawn te thii khuila a nuem tih hmueihtuk ki dongah a koelh phoeiah thii te hmueihtuk kah khoengim taengah a bueih.

His sons brought its blood to him [in a bowl]. He dipped his finger into the blood and put some of it on the projections at the corners of the altar. He poured out the rest of the blood at the base of the altar.

10 Te phoeiah BOEIPA loh Moses taengkah a uen vanbangla boirhaem kah a tha, a kuel neh a thin dongkah a thinhnun te hmueihtuk dongah a phum.

He/I burned the fat, including that which covered the kidneys and the liver, as Yahweh had commanded him/me.

11 Te phoeiah a saa neh a pho te rhaehhmuen vongvoel ah hmai neh a hoeh.

Then Aaron burned [the rest of] the meat and the hide/skin outside the camp.

12 Hmueihhlutnah te a ngawn phoeiah thii te Aaron koca rhoek loh a pom uh tih hmueihtuk kaepvai ah a haeh.

Then Aaron slaughtered the animal that would be completely burned [on the altar]. His sons handed him [the bowl containing] its blood, and he sprinkled the blood on all sides of the altar.

13 Te phoeiah hmueihhlutnah te a taengah maehpoel la a pom pa uh tih a lu neh hmueihtuk dongah a phum.

Then they handed him the head and the pieces of the animal that would be burned, and he burned them on the altar.

14 Te phoeiah a kotak neh a kho rhoek te a silh tih hmueihtuk dongkah hmueihhlutnah soah a phum.

He washed the inner parts and the legs of the animal, and burned them on the altar, on top of the other pieces of the animal.

15 Te phoeiah pilnam kah nawnnah te a nawn. Te vaengah pilnam kah boirhaem maae te a loh tih a ngawn phoeiah lamhma kah bangla a hlup pah.

Then Aaron brought the animals that would be sacrifices for the Israeli people. He took the goat and slaughtered it to be an offering to enable them to be forgiven for the sins they had committed, like he had done with the goat for his own offering.

16 Te phoeiah hmueihhlutnah te a khuen tih laitloeknah vanbangla a saii.

Then he brought the animal for the offering to be completely burned. He slaughtered it and offered it in the way that Yahweh had commanded him to do.

17 Te phoeiah khocang te a khuen tih a kut dongkah a bae neh hmueihtuk sokah mincang hmueihhlutnah dongah a phum thil.

He also brought the offering of grain. He took a handful of it and burned it on the altar, like he had done for the animal that he had slaughtered and completely burned [on the altar] in the morning.

18 Te phoeiah pilnam kah rhoepnah hmueih la vaitotal neh tutal te a ngawn. thii te Aaron koca rhoek loh a thueng uh tih hmueihtuk kaepvai ah a haeh.

Then he slaughtered the ox and the ram, to be an offering for the Israeli people to maintain fellowship with Yahweh. His sons handed him [the bowl containing] the blood, and he sprinkled the blood against all sides of the altar.

19 Tedae vaito neh tu kah a tha khaw, a kawl neh a dakda, a kuel neh a thin dongkah a thinhnun khaw,

But he took the fat from the ox and the ram, including their fat tails that were cut close to the backbone, and all the fat that covered the livers and the kidneys.

20 a rhang dongkah a tha khaw a tloeng uh tih a tha te hmueihtuk dongah a phum.

He put them on top of the breasts of those animals and carried them to the altar to be burned.

21 Tedae a rhang rhoek neh bantang laeng te tah Moses loh a uen vanbangla BOEIPA mikhmuh kah Aaron. loh thueng hmueih la a thueng.

Then, doing what Moses/I had commanded, he lifted up in front of Yahweh the breast and the right thigh of those animals, to signify that those two animals completely belonged to Yahweh.

22 Te phoeiah Aaron loh a kut te pilnam taengla a phuel tih yoethen a paek. Te daengah boirhaem, hmueihhlutnah neh rhoepnah a saii lamloh suntla thuk.

Then Aaron lifted his arms toward the people and [asked Yahweh to] bless them. Then having finished making all those offerings, he stepped down [from the place where the altar was].

23 Te phoeiah Moses neh Aaron. loh tingtunnah dap khuikla kun rhoi. Te dongah ha moe rhoi tih pilnam te yoethen a paek rhoi vaengah BOEIPA kah thangpomnah. loh pilnam cungkuem taengah a tueng pah.

Then Aaron and Moses/I entered the Sacred Tent. When they/we later came out, they/we [asked Yahweh to] bless the people. And suddenly the glory/brightness of Yahweh appeared to all the people.

24 Te vaengah BOEIPA maelhmai lamloh hmai ha thoeng tih hmueihtuk dongkah hmueihhlutnah neh maehtha te a hlawp. Pilnam boeih loh a hmuh vaengah tamhoe uh tih a hmai a buluk uh.

A fire from Yahweh appeared and burned up the offering that was to be completely burned and the fat that was on the altar. And when all the people saw that, they shouted joyfully and prostrated themselves on the ground [to worship Yahweh].
