< Thothuengnah 17 >
1 Moses te BOEIPA loh a voek tih,
And the Lord 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 his sons, and to all the children of Israel, saying to them: This is the word, which the Lord hath commanded, saying:
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 whosoever of the house of Israel if he kill an ox, or a sheep, or a goat in the camp, or without the camp,
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.
And offer it not at the door of the tabernacle an oblation to the Lord, shall be guilty of blood: as if he had shed blood, so shall he perish from the midst of 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.
Therefore the children of Israel shall bring to the priest their victims, which they kill in the field, that they may be sanctified to the Lord before the door of the tabernacle of the testimony, and they may sacrifice them for peace offerings to the Lord.
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.
And the priest shall pour the blood upon the altar of the Lord, at the door of the tabernacle of the testimony, and shall burn the fat for a sweet odour to the Lord.
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.
And they shall no more sacrifice their victims to devils, with whom they have committed fornication. It shall be an ordinance for ever to them and to their posterity.
8 Te phoeiah Israel imkhui kah hlang boeih neh amih lakli kah aka bakuep tih hmueihhlutnah hmueih aka nawn yinlai khaw thui pah.
And thou shalt say to them: The man of the house of Israel, and of the strangers who sojourn among you, that offereth a holocaust or a victim,
9 BOEIPA taengah nawn ham kangna khaw tingtunnah dap thohka la a khuen pawt atah tekah hlang te a pilnam lamkah hnawt saeh.
And bringeth it not to the door of the tabernacle of the testimony, that it may be offered to the Lord, shall perish from among 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 man whosoever of the house of Israel, and of the strangers that sojourn among them, eat blood, I will set my face against his soul, and 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.
Because the life of the flesh is in the blood: and I have given it to you, that you may make atonement with it upon the altar for your souls, and the blood may be for an expiation of the soul.
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 have said to the children of Israel: No soul of you, nor of the strangers that sojourn among you, shall 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.
Any man whosoever of the children of Israel, and of the strangers that sojourn among you, if by hunting or fowling, he take a wild beast or a bird, which is lawful to eat, let him pour out its blood, and cover it 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 all flesh is in the blood: therefore I said to the children of Israel: You shall not eat the blood of any flesh at all, because the life of the flesh is in the blood, and whosoever eateth it, shall 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.
The soul that eateth that which died of itself, or has been caught by a beast, whether he be one of your own country or a stranger, shall wash his clothes and himself with water, and shall be defiled until the evening: and in this manner he shall be made clean.
16 Tedae himbai te suk pawt tih a pum te a silh pawt atah amah kathaesainah te amah loh phuei van saeh,” a ti nah.
But if he do not wash his clothes, and his body, he shall bear his iniquity.
