Kâboutpoenae 27

1 Hathnukkhu, Mosi hoi Isarel kacuenaw ni taminaw koe a dei awh e teh, sahnin kai ni ka hruek e kâpoelawk pueng hah tarawi awh.

And Moses with the ancients of Israel commanded the people, saying: Keep every commandment that I command you this day.

2 Nang ni Jordan palang na raka teh, BAWIPA Cathut ni na poe e ram dawk na pha toteh, kalen e talungnaw hah ung nateh, thungpangaw hoi na hluk han.

And when you are passed over the Jordan into the land which the Lord thy God will give thee, thou shalt set up great stones, and shalt plaster them over with plaster,

That thou mayst write on them all the words of this law, when thou art passed over the Jordan: that thou mayst enter into the land which the Lord thy God will give thee, a land flowing with milk and honey, as he swore to thy fathers.

4 Jordan palang raka hnukkhu, sahnin kai ni lawk na thui e talungnaw hah, Ebal mon dawk na ung vaiteh, mirangtalai hoi na kanan han.

Therefore when you are passed over the Jordan, set up the stones which I command you this day, in mount Hebal, and thou shalt plaster them with plaster:

5 Hote hmuen koehai na BAWIPA Cathut hanelah,

And thou shalt build there an altar to the Lord thy God, of stones which iron hath not touched,

6 thuengnae khoungroe hah talung hoi na sak awh han. Sum hno laipalah, pathei hoehe talung hoi na sak han. Nang BAWIPA Cathut hah hote khoungroe dawk hmaisawi thuengnae na thueng han.

And of stones not fashioned nor polished: and thou shalt offer upon it holocausts to the Lord thy God:

7 Roum thuengnae hai na thueng vaiteh, hote hmuen koe na canei awh vaiteh, a hmalah nawmnae na sak awh han.

And shalt immolate peace victims, and eat there, and feast before the Lord thy God.

8 Hote talung dawkvah, hete lawknaw hah kamcengcalah na thut han.

And thou shalt write upon the stones all the words of this law plainly and clearly,

9 Hathnukkhu, Mosi hoi vaihmanaw, Levihnaw niyah, Oe Isarel miphun, kâhruetcuet laihoi thai haw. Sahnin nang teh, BAWIPA Cathut e miphun lah na o toe.

And Moses and the priests of the race of Levi said to all Israel: Attend, and hear, O Israel: This day thou art made the people of the Lord thy God.

Thou shalt hear his voice, and do the commandments and justices which I command thee.
