Kâboutpoenae 23
1 Tuenla hoehpawiteh, tongpa e puengcang tâtueng lah kaawm e teh BAWIPA e tamihu dawk kâen mahoeh.
He that is wounded in the stones, or hath his privy member cut off, shall not enter into the congregation of Yhwh.
2 Cataca teh, BAWIPA e tamihu dawk kâen mahoeh. Se hra totouh kâen mahoeh.
A bastard shall not enter into the congregation of Yhwh; even to his tenth generation shall he not enter into the congregation of Yhwh.
3 Amon miphun hoi Moab miphun hai BAWIPA e tamihu dawk kâen mahoeh. Se hra totouh kâen mahoeh.
An Ammonite or Moabite shall not enter into the congregation of Yhwh; even to their tenth generation shall they not enter into the congregation of Yhwh for ever:
4 Bangkongtetpawiteh, nangmouh ni Izip ram hoi na tâco awh navah, ahnimouh ni vaiyei hoi tui a sin awh teh na dawn awh hoeh. Nangmouh thoebo sak hanelah, Mesopotamia ram, Pethor kho e Beor capa Balaam hah a hlai awh.
Because they met you not with bread and with water in the way, when ye came forth out of Egypt; and because they hired against thee Balaam the son of Beor of Pethor of Mesopotamia, to curse thee.
5 Hatei, nange BAWIPA Cathut ni Balaam e lawk tarawi pouh hoeh. Nang na pahren dawkvah, thoebonae hah yawhawinae lah a kâthungsak.
Nevertheless Yhwh thy God would not hearken unto Balaam; But Yhwh thy God turned the curse into a blessing unto thee, because Yhwh thy God loved thee.
6 Nang teh ahnimae bawirengnae hoi a hnopai na hringyung thung na khen mahoeh.
Thou shalt not seek their peace nor their prosperity all thy days for ever.
7 Edom miphunnaw hah, na pahnawt awh mahoeh. Ahni teh nange hmaunawngha lah ao. Izipnaw hai na pahnawt mahoeh. Ahnimae ram dawk san lah ouk na o boi toe.
Thou shalt not abhor an Edomite; for he is thy brother: thou shalt not abhor an Egyptian; because thou wast a stranger in his land.
8 Ahnimae catoun teh se thum touh hnukkhu BAWIPA e tamihu dawk a kâen thainae kâ ao.
The children that are begotten of them shall enter into the congregation of Yhwh in their third generation.
9 Taran tuknae koe na kamthaw nah, kamsoumhoehe hno pueng rounh.
When the army goeth forth against thine enemies, then keep thee from every wicked thing.
10 Nangmouh thung dawk tami bangpatet hai amae a tâco dawk thounghoehnae awm pawiteh, roenae alawilah a tâco han. Roenae thung kâen mahoeh.
If there be among you any man, that is not clean by reason of uncleanness that chanceth him by night, then shall he go abroad out of the camp, he shall not come within the camp:
11 Tangminlasa a pha toteh tui hoi a pâsu han. Kanî a khup torei roenae thung bout a kâen han.
But it shall be, when evening cometh on, he shall wash himself with water: and when the sun is down, he shall come into the camp again.
12 Vaipuen ceinae teh roenae alawilah na ta awh han. Hote hmuen koe alawilah na cei awh han.
Thou shalt have a place also without the camp, whither thou shalt go forth abroad:
13 Na hnopainaw dawk sumtaboung na tawn han. Nang ni a alawilah na tahung toteh, hot hoi tangkawm na tai vaiteh, na kamlang sin vaiteh, na vaipuen hah na pakawp han.
And thou shalt have a paddle upon thy weapon; and it shall be, when thou wilt ease thyself abroad, thou shalt dig therewith, and shalt turn back and cover that which cometh from thee:
14 Bangkongtetpawiteh, nange BAWIPA Cathut ni nang hah na rungngang vaiteh, na tarannaw hah nang koe na poe nahanelah, roenae thung a kâhlai toe. Hatdawkvah, BAWIPA teh nang koe a tho navah, nangmouh koe kathounghoehe hah hmawt vaiteh, nangmouh koehoi a kamlang hoeh nahanelah, roenae teh a thoung han.
For Yhwh thy God walketh in the midst of thy camp, to deliver thee, and to give up thine enemies before thee; therefore shall thy camp be holy: that he see no unclean thing in thee, and turn away from thee.
15 A bawipa koehoi ka yawng niteh, nang koe ka tho e san teh a bawipa koe na ban sak mahoeh.
Thou shalt not deliver unto his master the servant which is escaped from his master unto thee:
16 Nangmouh koe kho a sak thai nahan a ngai poung e hmuen a rawi vaiteh, ao van han. Na pacekpahlek mahoeh.
He shall dwell with thee, even among you, in that place which he shall choose in one of thy gates, where it liketh him best: thou shalt not oppress him.
17 Isarel napuinaw thung takkâyawt e awm hanh naseh. Napuitongpanaw awm hanh naseh.
There shall be no whore of the daughters of Israel, nor a sodomite of the sons of Israel.
18 Takkâyonae phu hoi ui phu hah na BAWIPA Cathut e im dawk poe hanelah na sin mahoeh. Hot patetlah e hno teh, na BAWIPA Cathut hanelah panuettho e lah ao.
Thou shalt not bring the hire of a whore, or the price of a dog, into the house of Yhwh thy God for any vow: for even both these are abomination unto Yhwh thy God.
19 Na hmaunawngha koe apung la hanelah, tangka, rawca, apung la thai e hnopai pueng na cawi mahoeh.
Thou shalt not lend upon usury to thy brother; usury of money, usury of victuals, usury of any thing that is lent upon usury:
20 Jentelnaw koe apung la hanelah na cawi sak awh han. Na cei awh teh na coe awh hane ram, na BAWIPA Cathut ni yawhawi na poe awh nahanelah, na hmaunawngha koe apung la hanelah na cawi sak awh mahoeh.
Unto a stranger thou mayest lend upon usury; but unto thy brother thou shalt not lend upon usury: that Yhwh thy God may bless thee in all that thou settest thine hand to in the land whither thou goest to possess it.
21 Nange BAWIPA Cathut koe lawk na kam pawiteh, na kam e patetlah sak laipalah awm hanh. Nange BAWIPA Cathut ni atangcalah, a hei han. Na sak laipalah na awm pawiteh, nang koe a yonae a pha han.
When thou shalt vow a vow unto Yhwh thy God, thou shalt not slack to pay it: for Yhwh thy God will surely require it of thee; and it would be sin in thee.
22 Hatei, lawk na kam hoehpawiteh, yon mahoeh.
But if thou shalt forbear to vow, it shall be no sin in thee.
23 Na pahni dawk hoi ka tâcawt e lawk hah na kâhruetcuet han. Na BAWIPA Cathut koe nama lungtho lahoi na kam e patetlah na sak han.
That which is gone out of thy lips thou shalt keep and perform; even a freewill offering, according as thou hast vowed unto Yhwh thy God, which thou hast promised with thy mouth.
24 Nang teh, na imri e misur takha koe na kâen navah, misur paw na ngai totouh na ca han, hatei, na yawngya dawk hoi na phawt pouh mahoeh.
When thou comest into thy neighbour’s vineyard, then thou mayest eat grapes thy fill at thine own pleasure; but thou shalt not put any in thy vessel.
25 Na imri e laikawk na cei navah, na kut hoi cavui hah na pahroe thai. Hatei, na imri e cavui hah tangkoun hoi na ca mahoeh.
When thou comest into the standing grain of thy neighbour, then thou mayest pluck the heads with thine hand; but thou shalt not move a sickle unto thy neighbour’s standing grain.
