Lampahnah 19

1 BOEIPA loh Moses taeng neh Aaron taengah a thui pah tih,

And Yahweh spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying:

2 “BOEIPA kah a uen bangla olkhueng dongkah khosing he Israel ca taengah voek lamtah thui pah. Nang taengla vaito ling a hmabuet hang khuen uh saeh. Te te a soah a lolhmaih om boel saeh lamtah a soah hnamkun khuen boel saeh.

This, is the statute of the law, which Yahweh hath commanded, saying, —Speak unto the sons of Israel—That they bring unto thee a red heifer, without defect wherein is no blemish, and whereupon hath come no yoke.

3 Te te khosoih Eleazar taengah pae saeh. Te phoeiah rhaehhmuen kah vongvoel la khuen saeh lamtah a mikhmuh ah ngawn saeh.

Then shall ye give her unto Eleazar the priest, and he shall take her forth unto the outside of the camp, and she shall be slain before him;

4 Te kah thii te khosoih Eleazar loh a kutdawn dongah naek saeh. Te phoeiah te kah a thii te tingtunnah dap hmai ah voei rhih haeh saeh.

and Eleazar the priest shall take of her blood with his finger, —and shall sprinkle towards the front of the tent of meeting: of her blood, seven times;

5 Te phoeiah vaito te a mikhmuh ah hoeh saeh. A pho neh a saa khaw, a thii khaw, a aek khaw hoeh thil saeh.

and the heifer shall be burned up before his eyes, —her skin, and her flesh, and her blood, with her dung shall be burned up.

6 Te phoeiah khosoih loh lamphai thing, pumpiding neh hlampai a lingdik te lo saeh lamtah vaito kah ungkhang khui la pup saeh.

Then shall the priest take cedar-wood and hyssop and crimson, —and cast into the midst of the burning up of the heifer.

7 Te phoeiah khosoih loh a himbai te suk saeh lamtah a pum khaw tui neh sil saeh. Te phoeiah rhaehhmuen la kun cakhaw khosoih te kholaeh due poeih uhla om saeh.

And the priest shall wash his clothes and bathe his flesh in water, and afterwards come into the camp, —but the priest shall be unclean until the evening,

8 Te te aka hoeh long khaw a himbai te tui neh suk saeh. A pum te tui neh a silh ah pataeng hlaem due aka poeih uhla om saeh.

And, he that burneth her, shall wash his clothes in water, and bathe his flesh in water, —and be unclean until the evening,

9 Te phoeiah hlang cuem loh vaito hloi te kol saeh lamtah rhaehhmuen vongvoel kah hmuen cuem ah khueh saeh. Te boirhaem tah Israel ca rhaengpuei ham khaw pumom tui dongkah tuemkoi la om saeh.

Then shall a man that is clean gather up the ashes of the heifer, and put them by, outside the camp, in a clean place, —so shall they be for the assembly of the sons of Israel to keep for water of separation it is a taking away of sin.

10 Vaito hloi aka kol tah a himbai a suk phoeiah khaw hlaem due aka poeih uh la om saeh. Te dongah Israel ca ham neh amih khui ah aka bakuep yinlai ham khaw kumhal kah khosing la om saeh.

Then shall he that gathered up the ashes wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening, —so shall it be for the sons of Israel and for the sojourner that sojourneth in your midst by a statute age-abiding.

11 Duek rhok aka ben hlang kah hinglu boeih tah hnin rhih khuiah aka poeih uhla om saeh.

He that toucheth the dead, even any human person, shall be unclean seven days.

12 A hnin thum dongah anih te amah cilpoe uh saeh lamtah a hnin rhih dongah caihcil saeh. A hnin thum dongah a cilpoe pawt atah a hnin rhih dongah khaw caihcil mahpawh.

He, shall cleanse himself from sin therewith on the third day, then on the seventh day, shall he be clean, —but if he cleanse not himself from sin on the third day, then on the seventh day, shall he not be clean,

13 Hlang hinglu aka duek te aka ben boeih tah duek tih a cilpoe pawt atah BOEIPA kah dungtlungim te a poeih. Te dongah tekah hinglu te Israel lamloh khoe saeh. Pumom tui te a pum dongah a haeh pawt dongah a soah a tihnai kap pueng tih rhalawt.

Whosoever toucheth the dead the person of the human being that dieth and doth not cleanse himself from sin, the habitation of Yahweh, hath he made unclean; that person therefore shall be cut off out of Israel, —because, the water of separation, was not dashed upon him, unclean, shall he be, his uncleanness is yet upon him.

14 He tah dap ah hlang a duek vaengkah kah olkhueng ni. Tekah dap la aka mop boeih neh dap khuikah boeih tah hnin rhih poeih uh ni.

This, is the law—When, a human being, shall die in a tent, every one who goeth into the tent and every one who is in the tent shall be unclean seven days.

15 A soah amhuep amtlaeng aka om pawt tih aka ah hnopai boeih te khaw rhalawt la om.

And, in the case of every open vessel, on which no cover is fastened, unclean, it is.

16 Diklai hman kah cunghang neh aka duek kah rhok khaw, hlang rhuh khaw, phuel khaw aka ben boeih tah hnin rhih poeih uh ni.

And, whosoever toucheth on the face of the field, one slain with a sword, or one who hath died, or a human bone or a grave, shall be unclean seven days.

17 Hlang rhalawt ham tah boirhaem kah ungkhang laipi te loh pah lamtah am khuiah tui hing bueih thil saeh.

And they shall take, for him that is unclean, of the ashes of the burning of the sin-bearer, —and living water shall be put thereon in a vessel,

18 Hlang cuem loh pumpiding a loh tih tui ah a nuem phoeiah tah dap dongah khaw, hnopai boeih dongah khaw, te kah aka om hinglu boeih, te aka ben soah, a rhuh soah khaw, duek rhok soah khaw, phuel ah khaw haeh saeh.

Then shall a man that is clean take hyssop, and dip in the water, and sprinkle upon the tent, and upon all the vessels, and upon the persons who were there, —and upon him that touched the bone or him who had been slain, or him who had died of himself or the grave;

19 Te phoeiah a hnin thum dong neh hnin rhih dongah tah hlang cuem loh hlang rhalawt soah haeh saeh. A hnin rhih dongah tah anih te cilpoe saeh. Te vaengah a himbai suk saeh lamtah tui hlu saeh, hlaem vaengah tah caihcil bitni.

and the clean person shall sprinkle upon the unclean, on the third day, and on the seventh day, —so shall he cleanse himself from sin, on the seventh day, and shall wash his clothes, and bathe in water and be clean in the evening.

20 Poeih uh tih aka cilpoe uh pawt hlang tah BOEIPA kah rhokso a poeih dongah hlangping khui lamloh a hinglu hnawt pah saeh. Pumom tui te anih soah a haeh pawt dongah anih te rhalawt.

But in the case of the man who shall be unclean and shall not cleanse himself from sin, that person shall be cut off, out of the midst of the convocation, —for, the sanctuary of Yahweh, hath he made unclean, the water of separation, hath not been dashed upon him unclean, he is.

21 Amih ham kumhal kah khosing la om coeng tih pumom tui aka haeh tah a himbai suk uh saeh. Te dongah pumom tui aka ben khaw hlaem duela poeih uh ni.

So shall it be unto them for statute age-abiding, —and, he that sprinkleth the water of separation, shall wash his clothes, and he that toucheth the water of separation shall be unclean until the evening;

22 A soah rhalawt loh a ben boeih khaw poeih uh. Te te aka ben hinglu khaw hlaem duela poeih uh ni,” a ti nah.

and, whatsoever the unclean person toucheth, shall be unclean, —and the person who toucheth it shall be unclean until the evening.
