Olrhaepnah 22
1 Na manuca kah vaito khaw, a tu khaw a tloeng te na hmuh vaengah thuh pah boeh. Na manuca taengah thak rhoe la thak.
Thou shalt not see thy brother's ox or his sheep go astray, and hide thyself from them: thou shalt in any case bring them back unto thy brother.
2 Te dongah nang te na manuca neh na yoei pawt tih anih te na ming pawt atah namah im khui la khuen lamtah na manuca loh han tlap tih anih taengla na bal hil namah taengah om saeh.
And if thy brother be not near unto thee, and thou know him not, then thou shalt bring it unto thy house, and it shall be with thee until thy brother seek after it, and thou shalt restore it unto him.
3 Te vanbangla a laak khaw saii pah lamtah a himbai khaw saii pah. Te phoeiah na manuca kah hnohma boeih khaw te tlam te saii pah. Anih taengkah aka hma te na hmuh atah om vapsa hamla ngaih boeh.
And so shalt thou do with his ass; and so shalt thou do with his clothing; and so shalt thou do with everything that is lost of thy brother, which he loseth, and thou findest: thou mayest not hide thyself.
4 Na manuca kah laak khaw, a vaito khaw long ah a cungku te na hmuh lalah te lamkah te thuh uh boeh. Anih te thoh rhoela thoh puei.
Thou shalt not see thy brother's ass or his ox fall by the way, and hide thyself from them: thou shalt in any case [help] him to lift them up.
5 Tongpa kah hnopai te huta pum dongla om boel saeh lamtah huta himbai te tongpa loh bai boel saeh. Te tla aka saii boeih te BOEIPA na Pathen kah a tueilaehkoi ni.
There shall not be a man's apparel on a woman, neither shall a man put on a woman's clothing; for whoever doeth so is an abomination to Jehovah thy God.
6 Na mikhmuh kah long taengah thing boeih dongah khaw, diklai dongah vaa bu khaw, vapuel neh a duei khaw a tong mai ni. Tedae vapuel so neh a duei soah aka oi a manu khaw a manu te a ca neh lo boeh.
If a bird's nest chance to be before thee in the way, in any tree, or upon the ground, with young or with eggs, and the dam sitting upon the young or upon the eggs, thou shalt not take the dam with the young:
7 Vapuel te namah ham na lo mai cakhaw a manu tah hlah rhoe hlah. Te daengah ni namah ham khaw then vetih na hinglung a vang eh.
thou shalt in any case let the dam go, and thou mayest take the young to thee, that it may be well with thee, and that thou mayest prolong thy days.
8 Im thai na sak atah na imphu ah longkhawn na saii ni. Te daengah ni te lamkah aka cungku loh cungku cakhaw na imphu kah hlang thii na yook pawt eh.
When thou buildest a new house, thou shalt make a parapet for thy roof, that thou bring not blood upon thy house, if any one should in any wise fall from it.
9 Na misur aka coom te tue boeh. Cangtii na tuh kah a thaihhmin neh misur thaih te na poeih ve.
Thou shalt not sow thy vineyard with [seed of] two sorts, lest the whole of thy seed which thou hast sown, and the produce of thy vineyard, be forfeited.
10 Vaito neh laak te hmaih bok boeh.
Thou shalt not plough with an ox and an ass together.
11 Tumul neh hlamik a yaep te hmaih bai boeh.
Thou shalt not wear a garment of mixed material, [woven] of wool and linen together.
12 Na himbai dongkah a hmoi pali dongah namah loh sihno bang lamtah bai.
Tassels shalt thou make thee on the four corners of thy clothing, wherewith thou coverest thyself.
13 Hlang pakhat loh yuu a loh tih a kun thil coeng dae a hmuhuet dongah,
If a man take a wife, and go in unto her and hate her,
14 a olka, a khoboe khaw a yuu taengah a tloe la vik a khueh mai ni. Te phoeiah anih te ming thae phueih sak ham a ngaih tih, “Hekah huta he ka loh tih a taengla ka kun vaengah anih he a cuemnah ka hmuh moenih,” a ti thai.
and charge her with things for scandalous talk, and cause an evil name against her to be spread abroad, and say, This woman have I taken, and I came in unto her, and I did not find her a virgin;
15 Te vaengah hula te hula amah kah a napa neh a manu loh lo saeh. Te phoeiah hula te hula kah cuemnah neh khopuei vongka kah patong rhoek taengah thak saeh.
then shall the father of the damsel, and her mother, take and bring forth the tokens of the damsel's virginity unto the elders of the city in the gate;
16 Te vaengah hula kah a napa loh patong rhoek taengah, “Hekah hlang taengah a yuu la ka canu ka paek dae vik a hnoel.
and the damsel's father shall say unto the elders, I gave my daughter unto this man as wife, and he hates her;
17 Te dongah a khoboe neh ol a saii tih, “Na canu te a cuemnah ka hmu pawh,” a ti tarha. Tedae ka canu kah a cuemnah tah he pawn ni,” ti saeh lamtah khopuei patong rhoek kah mikhmuh ah himbai te phaih uh saeh.
and behold, he charges her with things for scandalous talk, saying, I found not thy daughter a virgin; and here are the tokens of my daughter's virginity. And they shall spread the cloth before the elders of the city.
18 Te vaengah tekah hlang te khopuei patong rhoek loh lo uh saeh lamtah toel uh saeh.
And the elders of that city shall take the man and chastise him;
19 Anih loh Israel oila te ming thae a phueih sak dongah tangka yakhat neh sah sak uh saeh lamtah hula kah a napa te pae uh saeh. Te daengah anih yuu la om vetih a hing tue khuiah anih te tueih hamla a noeng pawt eh.
and they shall fine him a hundred shekels of silver, and give them unto the father of the damsel, because he hath caused an evil name to be spread abroad against a virgin in Israel. And she shall remain his wife: he may not put her away all his days.
20 Tedae olka he oltak la om tih hula kah hula a cuemnah te a hmuh uh pawt mai ni.
But if this thing is true, [and] virginity hath not been found with the damsel;
21 Te vaengah hula te a napa im kah thohka taengla khuen uh saeh. Te phoeiah anih te khopuei kah tongpa rhoek loh lungto neh dae uh saeh lamtah duek saeh. A napa im kah a cukhalh neh Israel khuiah boethae halang a saii. Te dongah boethae na khui lamloh khoe.
then they shall bring out the damsel unto the entrance of her father's house, and the men of her city shall stone her with stones that she die: because she hath wrought infamy in Israel, committing fornication in her father's house; and thou shalt put evil away from thy midst.
22 Va loh a yuunah tangtae huta te tongpa loh a yalh puei vaengah a uum atah hlang yuu taengah aka yalh tongpa khaw huta khaw a boktlap la duek saeh. Te dongah boethae tah Israel khui lamloh khoe.
If a man be found lying with a man's wife, they shall both of them die, the man that lay with the woman, and the woman; and thou shalt put away evil from Israel.
23 Hula tanu oila te tongpa ham a bae pah coeng dae khopuei khuikah tongpa pakhat loh a hmuh tih a yalh puei mai ni.
If a damsel, a virgin, be betrothed to some one, and a man find her in the city, and lie with her,
24 Te vaengah amih rhoi te khopuei vongka la khuen uh. Tekah dumlai dongah hula tanu long khaw khopuei khuiah pang kangna boel saeh. Tongpa khaw a hui kah a yuu te dumlai la a puei dongah lungto neh dae uh lamtah duek saeh. Te dongah boethae tah na khui lamloh khoe uh.
then ye shall bring them both out unto the gate of that city, and stone them with stones that they die; the damsel, because she cried not, [being] in the city, and the man, because he hath humbled his neighbour's wife; and thou shalt put evil away from thy midst.
25 Hlang loh a bae tangtae hula te tongpa pakhat loh kohong ah a uum mai ni. Te vaengah tongpa loh anih te a paco tih a yalh puei atah anih aka yalh puei tongpa amah bueng mah dawk duek saeh.
But if a man find a betrothed damsel in the field, and the man force her, and lie with her, then the man only that lay with her shall die;
26 Tedae hula taengah tah dumlai saii boeh. A duek ham tueng tholhnah khaw hula taengah a om moenih. Tongpa loh a hui a tlai thil tih a hinglu a ngawn pah vanbangla tahae kah dumlai he khaw om van.
and unto the damsel thou shalt do nothing: there is in the damsel no sin worthy of death; for as when a man riseth against his neighbour, and murdereth him, so is this matter;
27 A bae tangtae hula tanu te kohong ah a uum tih tekah hula loh a pang thil lalah anih te a rhun moenih.
for he found her in the field, the betrothed damsel cried, and there was no one to save her.
28 A bae hlan hula, tanu, oila te tongpa loh a uum tih a tuuk mai ni. Te vaengah anih a yalh puei a uum uh mai ni.
If a man find a damsel, a virgin, who is not betrothed, and lay hold on her, and lie with her, and they be found,
29 Te vaengah hula kah a napa te hula aka yalh puei tongpa loh tangka sawmnga neh sah saeh. Tedae anih te a puei coeng dongah anih yuu la om saeh. Amah tue khuiah tah anih te hlak hamla a coeng moenih.
then the man that lay with her shall give unto the damsel's father fifty [shekels] of silver, and she shall be his wife, because he hath humbled her; he may not put her away all his days.
30 Tongpa loh a napa kah a yuu te rhawt boel saeh lamtah a napa kah a mul khaw nawn pah boel saeh.
A man shall not take his father's wife, nor uncover his father's skirt.
