< Minbu 19 >
1 Pakaiyin Mose henga hiti hin aseijin ahi.
Yahweh spoke to Moses and Aaron. He said,
2 Pathen’in dan thupeh aneiyin Israel mite seipeh un bongchal nou asan khat, nolna bei tihbah bukimsel na tongkha lou khat hi ding ahi.
“This is a statute, a law which I am commanding you: Say to the people of Israel that they must bring to you a red heifer without flaw or blemish, and which has never carried a yoke.
3 Hiche bongnou san chu Eleazer thempu chu petan chuteng ngahmum pam lamah Eleazer thempupa masanga athisa nakatdoh diu ahi.
Give the heifer to Eleazar the priest. He must bring it outside the camp, and someone must kill it in front of him.
4 Eleazer thempupan gan thisen chu akhotna anu matna Pathen houbuh maicham masang lamah sagi vei atheh khum ding ahi.
Eleazar the priest must take some of its blood with his finger and sprinkle it seven times toward the front of the tent of meeting.
5 Eleazer thempupa chun hiche bongnousan chu athisan jaona aboncha meiya ahalvam hel ding ahiye.
Another priest must burn the heifer in his sight. He must burn its hide, flesh, and its blood with its dung.
6 Eleazer thempu chun thing khat chu alan akhoilu pehjong asanna kitom chu bongnou meiya kihal lah achu ahal vam ding ahi.
The priest must take cedarwood, hyssop, and scarlet wool, and throw it all into the middle of the burning heifer.
7 Eleazer thempu chun aponsil akisuh ngimding tuija kisil ngim ding, hiche ho akichai teng ngahmuna hung kinung le ding kisuh thengna chu nilhah lam le aneithei ding ahi.
Then he must wash his clothes and bathe in water. Then he may come into the camp, where he will remain unclean until the evening.
8 Pasal koi tobang Gancha gouvam ma pang chun tuija avon aponho asoptheng selding amatah jeng jong tuiya kisil ngimsel ding chule nilhah khojin tokah’a atheng louva um ding ahi.
The one who has burned the heifer must wash his clothes in water and bathe in water. He will remain unclean until the evening.
9 Chule koi tobang aki sutheng sella umpa chun hiche bongnou chal asen chu achom khomma, ngahmun pam muntheng lah a akoi tup ding, hiche meivam khat nadi ho chu Israel mite manchah tuija ki suhthengna dia akikoi diu ahi. Hiche kintheng natoh na ding hi chonset sopthengna’a man chah ding ahi.
Someone who is clean must gather up the heifer's ashes and put them outside the camp in a clean place. These ashes must be kept for the community of the people of Israel. They will mix the ashes with water for purification from sin, since the ashes were from a sin offering.
10 Hiche pasal bongchal san ki halvam na aloh apang pa chun avon ashang khol jouse akisop theng cheh ding, chule nilhah khojin tokah geiya amapa chu aboh’a umding, hiche dan kisem hi Israel miten akhang akhanga ajuidiu amaho lah’a koitobang chiding namdang aching hon jong ajui cheh diu ahi.
The one who gathered the heifer's ashes must wash his clothes. He will remain unclean until the evening. This will be a permanent law for the people of Israel and the foreigners who stay with them.
11 Koi hi jong leh, thilong tham kha aum tah leh nisagi aboh a um ding ahi.
Whoever touches the dead body of any man will be unclean for seven days.
12 Amaho chu hito bang a nithum le ni sagi alhin teng tuija kisuthenga umdiu, amaho chu nisagi sunga chu akisuh theng tah lou ule, hapta khat le ni sagi hung lhing tah jong leh atheng lou aboh a um ding ahiuve.
Such a person must purify himself on the third day and on the seventh day. Then he will be clean. But if he does not purify himself the third day, then he will not be clean on the seventh day.
13 Koi hita jongle thilong mithi athamkha tah’a ahi ding lomtah aki suhtheng tahlou leh Pathen houbuh chu aja lou ahitan, amaho chu Israel mipite lah’a konna pampeija umdiu ahi. Ajeh chu twi kithe khum ma suhtheng na aum tah lou jeh’a a chonset na’uva chu hitia chu kibol ahi tai.
Whoever touches a dead person, the body of a man who has died, and does not purify himself—this person defiles Yahweh's tabernacle. That person must be cut off from Israel because the water for impurity was not sprinkled on him. He will remain unclean; his uncleanness will remain on him.
14 Hiche danbu kisuh thengna dinga kisem hi hitia manchah ding, koi tobang ponbuh noija aum pettah uva ahung thikhah leh houbuh sunga umjouse mithi long in adal pha chan chu ni sagi atheng lou aboh’a umjing diu ahi.
This is the law for when someone dies in a tent. Everyone who goes into the tent and everyone who is already in the tent will be unclean for seven days.
15 Thilkeu kong le lheng ipi hita jong leh asin kisin loupet na kitung kha thil ponbuh sung nga umjouse chu aboh atheng louva kisim ding ahi.
Every open container with no cover becomes unclean.
16 Tollhang a um mihem long athisa ho, chemjam a kithat hihen, athikam hihen, mi thisa gu le chang ho hijong leh thamkha penpen chu ni sagi sung’a aboh’a umding ahitai.
Similarly, anyone outside a tent who touches someone who has been killed with a sword, any other dead body, a human bone, or a grave—that person will be unclean for seven days.
17 Hiche mi kisuboh pa suhtheng thei na dia chu; govam thilto a Bongchal kigona vam chu na lah uva, Leibel a na khum diu thuitheng chu na sunkhum diu ahi.
Do this for the unclean person: Take some ashes from the burnt sin offering and mix them in a jar with fresh water.
18 TChuteng aki suboh lou mikhat chun, Hyssop tui alah a tuija ade lut ding, Hiche pa chun Ponbuh ahin, Bonbuh kisonna jol ho ahin, ponbuh sung’a um miho ahin, mi thikam leh mithigu tongkha jouse ahin, ahi lou leh Lhangoh keu thamkha ho ham chu tuitheng toh hyssop chu athin khum a asuh theng ding ahi.
Someone who is clean must then take hyssop, dip it in the water, and sprinkle it on the tent, on all the containers inside the tent, on the persons who were there, and on anyone who touched the bone, the one who was killed, the one who died, or the grave.
19 Nikthum lhinni jong leh athenga um jingpa chun aki suboh jouse chu a thinkhum jing nahlai ding ahi. Ni sagi alhion ni leh aki suboh miho chu amaho leh amaho kisil theng uva, avon ho’u kisoptheng untin, abohna uva konna atheng hi diu ahitai.
On the third day and on the seventh day, the clean person must sprinkle the unclean person. On the seventh day the unclean person must purify himself. He must wash his clothes and bathe in water. At evening he will become clean.
20 Ahilah amaho lah a koi tobang aki suhboh naho kisuh thenglou changse vang chu mipi lah’a konna kichom khen ahi tauve. Ajeh chu amahon Pathen houin chu asuhboh u ahi tai. Ki suhtheng na dia tui kithin khum chu a chung uva chukha talou ahi jeh a, aboh a umjing ding ahi tauve.
But anyone who remains unclean, who refuses to purify himself—that person will be cut off from the community, because he has defiled Yahweh's sanctuary. The water for impurity has not been sprinkled on him; he remains unclean.
21 Hiche hi mipi ho ding nga dan phat sottah a ding ahin koi hita jong leh tui kithe khum jouse jong avon le apon’u aki soptheng cheh diu, koi tobang kisuhtheng na tui tham kha aum leh jong nilhah lang geija atheng louva um ding ahiuve.
This will be an ongoing law concerning these situations. The one who sprinkles the water for impurity must wash his clothes. The one who touches the water for impurity will become unclean until evening.
22 Mihem hihen thilkeu hita jong leh aki suboh pan athamkhah jouse chu nilhah geija aboh a kisim ding ahi.
Whatever the unclean person touches will become unclean. The person who touches it will become unclean until evening.”
