Olrhaepnah 8
1 Tihnin ah kai loh nang kang uen olpaek boeih he vai hamla ngaithuen uh. Te daengah ni BOEIPA loh na pa rhoek taengah a caeng khohmuen ah na hing vaengah na ping uh vetih na kun uh vaengah khaw na pang uh eh.
All the commandment which I command thee this day shall ye observe to do; in order that ye may live, and multiply, and go in and take possession of the land which the Lord hath sworn unto your fathers.
2 A olpaek te a olpaek bangla na thinko ah ngaithuen neh ngaithuen pawt khaw ming ham a ngaih tih nang phaep ham neh noemcai ham kum likip khuiah BOEIPA na Pathen loh Khosoek longpuei ah nang n'caeh puei boeih te poek lah.
And thou shalt remember all the way which the Lord thy God hath led thee these forty years in the wilderness, in order to afflict thee, to prove thee, to know what is in thy heart, whether thou wouldst keep his commandments, or not.
3 Nang m'phaep vaengah n'lamlum sak ngawn dae namah loh na ming mueh neh na pa rhoek loh aming uh mueh manna te nang n'cah. Te dongah hlang he buh bueng neh hing pawt tih BOEIPA ka lamkah aka thoeng sarhui dongah ni hlang a hing tila nang m'ming sak.
And he afflicted thee, and suffered thee to hunger, and he gave thee manna to eat, which thou knewest not, and which thy fathers had not known; in order that he might make thee know that not by bread alone man doth live, but by every thing that proceedeth out of the mouth of the Lord doth man live.
4 Nang dong lamkah na himbai khaw hmawn pawt tih kum likip khuiah na kho khaw phat pawh.
Thy garment did not fall worn out from thee, and thy foot did not swell, these forty years.
5 Te dongah hlang loh a ca a toel bangla BOEIPA na Pathen loh nang n'toel te na thinko neh ming lah.
And thou shalt consider in thy heart, that, as a man chasteneth his son, so doth the Lord thy God chasten thee.
6 Te dongah longpuei ah pongpa ham neh amah rhih ham tah BOEIPA na Pathen kah olpaek te ngaithuen lah.
And thou shalt keep the commandments of the Lord thy God, to walk in his ways, and to fear him.
7 Kolbawn tlang ah soklong kah tuiphuet tui neh tuidung loh a long thil khohmuen, aka then khohmuen,
For the Lord thy God bringeth thee into a good land, a land of brooks of water, of fountains and depths that spring out of valleys and mountains;
8 cang, cangtun, misur, thaibu neh tale kho, olive situi neh khoitui kho la BOEIPA na Pathen loh nang n'khuen coeng.
A land of wheat, and barley, and of the vine, and the fig-tree, and the pomegranate; a land of the oil-olive, and of honey;
9 Tekah khohmuen ah tah buh dongah khaw sihtaehnah neh na ca pawt vetih, a khuiah pakhat khaw m'vaitah mahpawh. Khohmuen kah lungto dongah thicung neh tlang dongah rhohum khaw na dae thai.
A land wherein thou shalt eat bread without scarceness, wherein thou shalt not lack anything; a land the stones whereof are iron, and out of the mountains of which thou canst hew copper.
10 Tedae na caak tih na hah vaengah nang taengah khohmuen then neh aka phaeng BOEIPA na Pathen uem uh.
And when thou hast eaten and art satisfied, then shalt thou bless the Lord thy God for the good land which he hath given thee.
11 Namah te ngaithuen, BOEIPA na Pathen te na hnilh ve. Tihnin ah kai loh nang kan uen olpaek, laitloeknah neh a khosing he na ngaithuen pawt ve ne.
Take heed unto thyself that thou forget not the Lord thy God, so as not to keep his commandments, and his ordinances, and his statutes, which I command thee this day;
12 Na caak tih na hah vaengah, im then na sak tih na om vaengah,
That when thou hast eaten and art satisfied, and hast built goodly houses, and dwelt therein;
13 na saelhung neh na boiva loh ping tih, cak neh sui loh nang ham pung tih a cungkuem loh nang ham a pungtai vaengah,
And when thy herds and thy flocks multiply, and thy silver and thy gold are multiplied, and all that thou hast is multiplied:
14 na thinko loh pomsang uh vetih sal imkhui Egypt kho lamkah nang aka khuen BOEIPA na Pathen te na hnilh ve ne.
Thy heart be then not lifted up, and thou forget the Lord thy God, who hath brought thee forth out of the land of Egypt, from the house of slavery;
15 Khosoek duppuei neh rhih om minyuk rhul neh saelkhui ta-ai khuiah nang m'mawt tih tui aka om mueh tuihang ah pataeng hmailung lungpang khui lamkah tui te nang hamla hang khuen.
Who hath led thee through the great and terrible wilderness, wherein are snakes, poisonous serpents, and scorpions, and drought, where there is no water; who hath brought forth for thee water out of the flinty rock;
16 Khosoek ah na pa rhoek loh a ming uh mueh manna te nang n'cah tih na hmailong ah khophoengpha sak ham nang m'phaep tih n'noemcai.
Who hath fed thee in the wilderness with manna, which thy fathers knew not; in order to afflict thee, and in order to prove thee, to do thee good at thy latter end;
17 Te dongah na thinko khuiah, 'Khuehtawn he kamah thadueng, kamah ban thaa loh kamah ham a saii,’ na ti ve.
And thou say in thy heart, My power and the strength of my hand have gotten me this wealth.
18 Tedae tihnin kah bangla na pa rhoek taengah a caeng paipi te cak sak tih khuehtawn dang sak ham nang taengah thadueng aka pae BOEIPA na Pathen amah te poek.
But thou shalt remember the Lord thy God; for it is he that giveth thee power to get wealth; in order that he might fulfill his covenant which he hath sworn unto thy fathers, as it is this day.
19 BOEIPA na Pathen te na hnilh la na hnilh tih pathen tloe hnukah na caeh atah, amih taengah tho na thueng atah, amih te na bakop thil khohnin van vaengah na milh rhoe na milh ham ni nang taengah ka laipai.
And it shall come to pass, that, if thou shouldst forget the Lord thy God, and walk after other gods, and serve them, and bow thyself down to them, I testify against you this day that ye shall surely perish;
20 Na mikhmuh ah BOEIPA loh namtom rhoek a milh sak bangla BOEIPA na Pathen ol te na ya pawt vetih na milh uh van ve.
Like the nations which the Lord destroyeth from before you, so shall ye perish; in recompense of that ye would not hearken unto the voice of the Lord your God.
