The LORD said to Moses, “Speak to the priests, the sons of Aaron, and say to them, ‘A priest shall not defile himself for the dead among his people,
2 Inko khat akinaipi hichu anu ham, apa ham, achanu ham chule asopipa ham ahikhah louleh,

and for his virgin sister who is near to him, who has had no husband; for her he may defile himself.
4 Pasal khat mipa dinmun ahinunga amite lah a kisuh boh louhel ding, amale ama jeng jong kisunoh phah lou ding ahi.
He shall not defile himself, being a chief man among his people, to profane himself.
5 Amahon aluchang-u akihotol thei loudiu, abeng mul jeng ujong akivo chai lou diu, chule atahsa jeng ujong timaha umthei lou ding ahi.
“‘They shall not shave their heads or shave off the corners of their beards or make any cuttings in their flesh.

They shall be holy to their God, and not profane the name of their God, for they offer the offerings of the LORD made by fire, the bread of their God. Therefore they shall be holy.
7 Numei aki johsa kiti jong akichen pithei lou diu, ajipa khat in adalhahsa numei jong chu akichenpi thei louhel diu ahi. Ajeh chu hiche thempu chu a Pathen pa dia atheng ahi.
“‘They shall not marry a woman who is a prostitute, or profane. A priest shall not marry a woman divorced from her husband; for he is holy to his God.

Therefore you shall sanctify him, for he offers the bread of your God. He shall be holy to you, for I the LORD, who sanctify you, am holy.
9 Chule thempupa chanu chu akijoh a apan khah a ama le ama akisuh boh khah tah leh, hiche nu chun apa jeng jong asuhboh ahitan, hitia chon numei kiti phot chu meiya govam hel ding ahi.
“‘The daughter of any priest, if she profanes herself by playing the prostitute, she profanes her father. She shall be burned with fire.
10 Chule asopi holah a thempu chungnung penpa, angaiya alua kinu thaotwi kinusa, vontheng ngena kivon dinga thenso nachang khat chun, asam alhaiya putda henlang, aponsil jong akehlai aumsah lou ding ahi.
“‘He who is the high priest among his brothers, upon whose head the anointing oil is poured, and who is consecrated to put on the garments, shall not let the hair of his head hang loose, or tear his clothes.
11 Apa hihen anu hijongleh mithi long anailut a, ama le ama kisuboh thei louhel ding ahi.
He must not go in to any dead body, or defile himself for his father or for his mother.
12 Muntheng lai chu adalhah'a hiche muntheng chu asuhboh thei louhel ding ahi, ajeh chu amahi a Pathen akona thensona thaotwi akinu chu achunga akipoh le ahitan, keima Pakai chu kahi.
He shall not go out of the sanctuary, nor profane the sanctuary of his God; for the crown of the anointing oil of his God is upon him. I am the LORD.
13 Chule amapan jong aji ding nu chu, nungah theng ahiphat a akipui ding ahi.
“‘He shall take a wife in her virginity.
14 Meithai hihen akidasa hijong leh, chule akisubohsa numei hihen akijohsa hijong leh, amaho tobang chu thempu pan ji dinga akipui thei louhel ding, amaji ding chu amite lah a kon mong mong nungah thengset akipui ding ahi.
He shall not marry a widow, or one divorced, or a woman who has been defiled, or a prostitute. He shall take a virgin of his own people as a wife.

He shall not profane his offspring among his people, for I am the LORD who sanctifies him.’”
16 Chule Pakaiyin Mose hengah thu aseiyin, hiti hin bolin, ati.
The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
17 Aaron jah a seipeh tan, nason na chilhah teho chu akhang akhang uva, abonchauva atahsa chunga losapna nei jouse a Pathen dinga changlhah tohdoh dia hungsung lha thei lou ding ahiuve.
“Say to Aaron, ‘None of your offspring throughout their generations who has a defect may approach to offer the bread of his God.
18 Koi hileh tahsaa losapna nei chu, amitcho hihen, a elbai hihen, anah jom hihen atumpoh hijong leh,
For whatever man he is that has a defect, he shall not draw near: a blind man, or a lame, or he who has a flat nose, or any deformity,
19 Mi koi hileh akeng phang ham ahilouleh, akhut kisuh boh ahikhah a,
or a man who has an injured foot, or an injured hand,
20 Chule atingbong ham adung nem amitkho mulou, tiphah natna ham, atibol lha jeng ham atilchang kisuh keh aum leh,
or hunchbacked, or a dwarf, or one who has a defect in his eye, or an itching disease, or scabs, or who has damaged testicles.
21 Aaron chapate lah a kona hitobang atibukim lou puma, Pakai dia pumgo thilto tohdoh a pangthei louhel diu ahi, amapa tahsa chu aboh nei ahitan, hijeh achu a Pathen dia changlhah tohdoh a hungsung lhate hi louhel ding ahi.
No man of the offspring of Aaron the priest who has a defect shall come near to offer the offerings of the LORD made by fire. Since he has a defect, he shall not come near to offer the bread of his God.
22 Ama chun a Pathen dia changlhah kitoh doh chu aneh thei ding, thil thengho chule atheng pen thil dang ho jong chu aneh thei ding ahinai,
He shall eat the bread of his God, both of the most holy, and of the holy.
23 Ahinlah pondal phung hung lut a maicham phung jeng jong ajotpa louhel ding ahi, ajeh chu atibah kimlou ahitan, keima muntheng penchu asuhboh louhel ding ahi. Thempu jouse sutheng chu keima bou kahi, ati.
He shall not come near to the veil, nor come near to the altar, because he has a defect; that he may not profane my sanctuaries, for I am the LORD who sanctifies them.’”
24 Hicheng jouse hi abonchan, Mose’n Aaron ahin Aaron chapate jouse jah a anathupeh tan ahi.
So Moses spoke to Aaron, and to his sons, and to all the children of Israel.
