Thothuengnah 27
1 BOEPA loh Moses te a voek tih,
The Lord told Moses,
2 “Israel ca rhoek te voek lamtah thui pah. Hlang khat khat loh na hinglu phu neh BOEIPA taengah olcaeng a rhaisang sak atah,
“Tell the Israelites: When you make a special promise to dedicate someone to the Lord, these are the values you are to use.
3 na phu te tongpa kum kul ca lamkah kum sawmrhuk ca rhoek te tah hmuencim kah shekel ah tangka shekel sawmnga te na phu la om saeh.
The value of a man aged twenty to sixty is fifty shekels of silver, (using the sanctuary shekel standard).
4 Tedae anih te huta la a om atah shekel sawmthum na phu la om saeh.
The value of a woman is thirty shekels.
5 Te vaengah kum nga ca lamkah kum kul ca te tah tongpa ham shekel pakul neh huta ham shekel parha te na phu la om saeh.
The value of someone aged five to twenty is twenty shekels for a male and ten shekels for a female.
6 Tedae hla khat ca lamkah kum nga ca te tah tongpa ham tangka shekel panga te na phu la om saeh lamtah huta ham tangka shekel pathum te na phu la om saeh.
The value of someone aged one month to five years is five shekels of silver for a male and three shekels of silver for a female.
7 Kum sawmrhuk ca lamkah a so te tah tongpa te shekel hlai nga te, na phu la om saeh lamtah huta ham shekel parha om saeh.
The value of someone aged sixty or older is fifteen shekels for a male and ten shekels of silver for a female.
8 Na phu te a daeng bal oeh atah amah te khaw khosoih kah mikhmuh ah pai saeh lamtah khosoih loh a phu tloek pah saeh. Aka caeng kut loh a na tarhing ah khosoih loh rhan pah saeh.
However, if when you fulfill your promise you are poorer than the fixed value, you are to present the person before the priest, who will then set the value depending on what you can afford.
9 Rhamsa te BOEIPA taengkah nawnnah ham a nawn uh bal atah BOEIPA taengah a paek boeih te tah a cimcaih la om saeh.
If when you fulfill your promise you bring an animal that is permitted as an offering to the Lord, the animal given to the Lord shall be considered holy.
10 A thae te a then neh, a then te a thae neh thung khaw thung boel saeh, tho khaw tho boel saeh. Rhamsa te rhamsa neh a tho la a tho atah rhamsa aka om neh a hnothung te khaw a cimcaih la om saeh.
You are not allowed to replace it or swap it, either for one that is better or one that is worse. However, if you do replace it then both animals become holy.
11 Tedae rhalawt rhamsa boeih tah BOEIPA taengkah nawnnah ham khuen uh boel saeh. Tedae rhamsa te khosoih kah mikhmuh ah tloeng saeh.
If when you fulfill your promise you bring any unclean animal that is not permitted as an offering to the Lord, then you must show the animal to the priest.
12 Te vaengah a thae a then khaw anih te khosoih loh a phu tloek saeh lamtah khosoih kah a tloek te na phu la om saeh.
The priest will decide its value, whether high or low. Whatever value the priest places on it is final.
13 Tedae amah loh a tlan la a tlan atah na phu te panga neh thap van saeh.
If you then decide to buy the animal back, you have to add one fifth to its value in payment.
14 Hlang pakhat mai long khaw a im te BOEIPA ham a cim la a ciim coeng atah a thae a then khaw khosoih loh a phu tloek saeh lamtah khosoih kah a phu a tloek vanbangla a phu khaw om van saeh.
If you dedicate your house as holy to the Lord, then the priest will decide its value, whether high or low. Whatever value the priest places on it remains final.
15 Tedae a im a ciim tangtae te a tlan atah a phu te tangka a pueh panga neh koep thap saeh lamtah amah hut la koep om saeh.
But if you want to buy back your house, you have to add one fifth to its value in payment. Then it will belong to you again.
16 Hlang pakhat mai loh khohmuen khui lamkah amah khohut te BOEIPA ham a ciim atah a cangti a cuk tarhing la a phu om saeh lamtah cangtun tii hma at cuk te tangka shekel sawmnga neh ting van saeh.
If you dedicate some of your land to the Lord, then its value shall be determined by the amount of seed required to sow it: fifty shekels of silver for every homer of barley seed used.
17 Jubilee kum dongah a khohmuen te a ciim atah a phu te amah tarhing la om saeh.
If you dedicate your field during the Jubilee Year, the value will be the full amount calculated.
18 Tedae a khohmuen te jubilee poengah a ciim atah jubilee kum duela aka sueng te khosoih loh tae saeh lamtah a kum tarhing kah tangka vanbangla a phu te hnop van saeh.
But if you dedicate your field after the Jubilee, the priest will work out the value depending on the number of years left until the next Jubilee Year, so reducing the value.
19 A hoep mueh tangtae khohmuen te koep a tlan la a tlan atah khohmuen phu tangka te a pueh panga neh koep thap thil saeh lamtah amah hut la koep om saeh.
But if you want to buy your field back, you have to add one fifth to its value in payment. Then it will belong to you again.
20 Tedae khohmuen te tlan pawt tih hlang taengla patoeng a yoih coeng atah khohmuen te koep tlan voel boel saeh.
But if you don't buy the field back, or if you've already sold it to someone else, it can't ever be bought back.
21 Jubilee a poeng vaengah khohmuen loh BOEIPA taengah a cim la a om pueng atah khohmuen bangla yaehtaboeihla aka om te tah khosoih kah khohut la om saeh.
When the Jubilee comes, the field will become holy, in the same way as a field devoted to the Lord. It will become the property of the priests.
22 Amah kah khohut khohmuen pawt dae a kho lai te BOEIPA ham a ciim atah,
If you dedicate to the Lord a field you've bought that was not part of your original property,
23 Jubilee kum a pha duela a phu yet te khosoih loh tae saeh lamtah BOEIPA ham a cimcaih sak khohnin van vaengah a phu te pae saeh.
the priest will work out the value until the next Jubilee Year. You will pay on that day the exact value, giving it as a holy offering to the Lord.
24 Jubilee kum vaengah tah khohmuen a lai vaengkah a kungmah taengah amah kah khohmuen khohut vanbangla bal saeh.
In the Jubilee Year, ownership the field shall revert back to the person you bought it from—to the original owner of the land.
25 Na phu boeih boeih hmuencim kah shekel neh tae la om vetih gerah pakul ah shekel pakhat la om saeh.
(All values will use the sanctuary shekel standard of twenty gerahs to the shekel.)
26 Rhamsa khuikah a cacuek boeih he BOEIPA kah caming omthang la a om dongah vaito mai khaw tu mai khaw BOEIPA hut tangtae te tah hlang long he ciim boel saeh.
No one is allowed to dedicate the firstborn of the livestock, because the firstborn belong to the Lord. Whether they are cattle, sheep, or goats, they are the Lord's.
27 Tedae rhalawt rhamsa mai khaw namah kah phu bangla a lat mai ni. Tedae te te a panga neh thap saeh. A tlan pawt daengah ni namah ka a phu bangla a yoih eh.
But if it is an unclean animal, then you can buy it back according to its value, adding on one fifth extra. If it's not bought back, then it is to be sold according to its value.
28 Tedae hlang loh a khueh khui boeih lamkah hlang khaw, rhamsa khaw, amah kah khohut khohmuen khaw BOEIPA ham a ha tangtae, yaehtaboeih la aka om khat khat te tah yoi boel saeh. BOEIPA ham aka cim tih a cim tangkik yaehtaboeih la aka om boeih te tah tlan boel saeh.
Anything that you specially dedicate to the Lord from what you own, whether it's a person, an animal, or your land, can't be sold or bought back. Anything specially dedicated if most holy to the Lord.
29 Hlang pataeng yaehtaboeih la a ha boeih te tah lat boel saeh lamtah duek rhoe duek sak saeh.
No one who is specially dedicated to destruction can be bought back. They must be killed.
30 Khohmuen cangtii khaw, diklai thing thaih khaw parha pakhat boeih BOEIPA hut la om tih BOEIPA ham cimcaih bal.
Tithe from your crops or fruit belongs to the Lord; it is holy to the Lord.
31 Te dongah hlang khat khat mai loh amah kah parha pakhat te a tlan la a tlan atah amah kah panga neh thap thil saeh.
If you want to buy back some of your tithe, you must add on one fifth to its value.
32 Saelhung khaw, boiva khaw mancai hmuikah aka luem boeih kah parha pakhat boeih te BOEIPA kah a cim parha pakhat la om saeh.
When you count your herds and flocks, every tenth animal that passes under the shepherd's rod is holy to the Lord.
33 A thae a then khaw hnukdawn boel saeh lamtah thovael boel saeh. A tho la a tho atah aka om tangtae neh a hnothung te a cim la rhen om coeng tih tlan thai mahpawh,” a ti nah.
You must not examine it to see if it's good or bad, and you must not replace it. However, if you do replace it then both animals become holy; they can't be bought back.”
34 Tahae kah olpaek rhoek he Israel ca rhoek ham Sinai tlang ah BOEIPA loh Moses a uen.
These are the laws the Lord gave to Moses for the Israelites on Mount Sinai.
