Thempu Dan 17

1 Pakaiyin, Mose henga hiti hin aseipeh in,

Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

2 Aaron le achapte chule Israel chate jouse henga aseipeh ding in, bannei chan dan hochu athupeh in ahi.

“Speak to Aaron and to his sons, and to all the people of Israel. Tell them what Yahweh has commanded:

3 Israel telah a koi hijong leh, Pakai, Pathen chenna ponbuh kot phung tailouva; Pakai adia kilhaina bong, kelngoi chule kelcha that pen pen in danthu apalkeh ahi.

'Any man from Israel who kills an ox, lamb, or goat in the camp, or who kills it outside the camp, in order to sacrifice it—

4 Ama chun thisan asotah jeh a, Pathen miteh lah a kona kisimtha lou ding ahi.

if he does not bring it to the entrance of the tent of meeting to offer it as a sacrifice to Yahweh before his tabernacle, that man is guilty of bloodshed. He has shed blood, and that man must be cut off from among his people.

5 Hiche thupeh in adeisah pen chu, gammang tollah a kithat gancha jouse chu, Pakai angsunga ahin kailut diuva thupeh ahi. Kotbul lama thempupa henga ahinkai lut diu, kiloikhomna thilto dia kithat ding ahi.

The purpose of this command is so that the people of Israel will bring their sacrifices to Yahweh at the entrance to the tent of meeting, to the priest to be sacrificed as fellowship offerings to Yahweh, instead of offering sacrifices in an open field.

6 Thisan chu thempu pan ki khop khomna ponbuh kot phung maicham kimvel jousea athe thang ding, Pakaiya dia sathao hochu gimnamtuiya agovam ding ahi.

The priest will sprinkle the blood on Yahweh's altar at the entrance to the tent of meeting; he will burn the fat for it to produce a sweet aroma for Yahweh.

7 Israel chaten Pathen ajoulhep nauva kelcha limsemthu, doihou dinga gammang lah a gancha atha kitlou diu ahi. Hiche dan thupeh hi Israelten akhang akhanga ajui diu ahi.

The people must no longer offer their sacrifices to goat idols, for which they act as prostitutes. This will be a permanent statute for them throughout their people's generations.'

8 Israel mite hihen amaho lah a cheng gamchom mi hijong leh pumgo thilto ahi.

You must say to them, 'Any man of Israel, or any foreigner who lives among them, who offers a burnt offering or sacrifice

9 Kikhop khomna ponbuh kotphung tailouva Pathen adia kilhaina sem jouse, Pathen mite holah a kona kisim thalou ding ahi.

and does not bring it to the entrance of the tent of meeting in order to sacrifice it to Yahweh, that man must be cut off from his people.

10 Israel hihen gamchom mi hijong leh, thisan lhoh lha theng louva sa toh neh tha aum le, hichu Pakai, Pathen toh kidou ahin, amite lah akona simtha lou ding ahi.

If any person of the house of Israel, or any foreigner who lives among them consumes any blood, I will set my face against that person who consumes blood and I will cut him off from among his people.

11 Ganhing jouse hinna hi thisan akon ahi, hiche jeh achu Pakaiyin mi jouse chonset suhmang ahitheina dinga, hichu maicham phunga asun lhah dinga thupeh ahi.

For the life of an animal is in its blood. I have given its blood to you to make atonement on the altar for your lives, because it is the blood that makes atonement, for it is the blood that atones for the life.

12 Hijeh chun Pakaiyin Israel chate le alah uva cheng gamchom miho jaonaa, sa chu thisan jaonaa neh lou dia athupeh ahi.

Therefore I said to the people of Israel that no one among you must eat blood, neither may any foreigner who lives among you eat blood.

13 Israel mi hihen, gamchom mi alah uva cheng hi jong leh, gamlah a saham vacha ham, houtoh kitoh a atheng, hiche ho that pen pen chu thisanso ahitan, hichu leiset avuh khu ding ahi.

Anyone of the people of Israel, or any of the foreigners who live among them, who hunts and kills an animal or bird that may be eaten, that person must pour out its blood and cover the blood with earth.

14 Ganhing hinna kiti hi thisan ahin, hibanga chu sa kiti phot Israel chaten thisan jaonaa nehlou dia Pakai thupeh ahi, koi hileh anetha chu amite lah a kona pampeiya um ding ahi.

For the life of each creature is its blood. That is why I said to the people of Israel, “You must not eat the blood of any creature, for the life of every living creature is its blood. Whoever eats it must be cut off.”

15 Israel mi hihen gamchom mi hijong leh, gan thikam ahilouleh, sa hang ham in atha nekha aum le avon jouse akisop theng ding, ama jong kisil lha ding, nilhum keiya atheng louva um ding ahi.

Every person who eats an animal that has died or that has been torn by wild animals, whether that person is native born or a foreigner living among you, he must wash his clothes and bathe himself in water, and he will be unclean until the evening. Then he will be clean.

16 Hichu abol tah louva ahileh, themmo chang ding ahi.

But if he does not wash his clothes or bathe his body, then he must carry his guilt.'”
