1 Nangmouh hoi na mincanaw ni namamae BAWIPA Cathut hah na taki awh vaiteh,

Now this is the mitzvot ·instructions·, the statutes, and the judgments, which Adonai your God enjoined to teach you, that you might do them in the land where you go over to possess it;

2 Kai ni na poe e naw, pueng hah hringyung thung na tarawi thai e hoi, na hringyung a vang sak thai nahan na cei awh vaiteh, na coe hane ram dawk, na sak awh hane kai ni na cangkhai hanlah, nangmae Cathut ni lawk na poe e kâpoelawknaw, phunglawknaw hoi lawkcengnaenaw hateh,

that you might fear Adonai your God, to keep all his statutes and his mitzvot ·instructions·, which I enjoin you; you, and your son, and your son’s son, all the days of your life; and that your days may be prolonged.

3 Oe Isarel miphun, mintoenaw e Cathut e lawkkam patetlah nang ni sanu tui, khoitui a lawngnae ram dawk na yawhawi awh teh, na pungdaw awh nahan thai awh, kâhruetcuet lahoi tarawi awh.

Sh'ma ·Hear understand obey· therefore, Israel [God prevails], and observe to do it; that it may be well with you, and that you may increase mightily, as Adonai, the God of your fathers, has promised to you, in a land flowing with milk and honey.

4 Oe Isarel miphun thai awh haw, maimae BAWIPA Cathut teh buet touh dueng e BAWIPA la doeh ao.

Sh'ma ·Hear obey·, Israel [God prevails]: Yahweh is our God. Yahweh is echad ·one, one unity·.

5 Nange BAWIPA Cathut hah, na lungthin abuemlah, na hringnae abuemlah hoi thaonae abuemlahoi lungpataw haw.

You shall את 'ahav ·affectionately love· Yahweh your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your might.

6 Sahnin kai ni na poe e lawk hah na lung dawk na pâkuem han.

These words, which I enjoin you today, shall be on your heart;

7 Hote lawk hah panki lahoi na canaw na cangkhai han. Im dawk tahung nahai thoseh, cei nahai thoseh, i nahai thoseh, thaw nahai thoseh, hote lawk hah na dei pouh awh han.

and you shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise up.

8 Hote lawk hai na kut dawk mitnout nahanelah thoseh, na mit rahak hai thoseh na bet han.

You shall bind them for a sign on your hand, and they shall be for frontlets between your eyes.

9 Im takhang, khopui longkha dawk hai na thut han.

You shall write them on the door posts of your house, and on your gates.

10 Na kangdue sak hoeh e khopuinaw hai thoseh, hnokahawi hoi kakawi e imnaw hai thoseh,

It shall be, when Adonai your God brings you into the land which he swore to your fathers, to Abraham [Father of a multitude], to Isaac [Laughter], and to Jacob [Supplanter], to give you, great and goodly cities, which you didn’t build,

11 tuikhu na tai hoeh e hai thoseh, na patue hoeh e misur takha hoi olivekungnaw hai thoseh, nang na poe hanelah na pa Abraham, Isak, Jakop, koe lawkkam e ram koe nangmae BAWIPA Cathut ni na hrawi awh vaiteh kaboumcalah na ca awh han.

and houses full of all good things, which you didn’t fill, and cisterns dug out, which you didn’t dig, vineyards and olive trees, which you didn’t plant, and you shall eat and be full;

12 San lah na onae Izip ram lahoi nangmouh na ka tâcawtkhai e BAWIPA Cathut na pahnim awh hoeh nahan, namamouh kâhruetcuet awh.

then beware lest you forget Adonai, who brought you out of the land of Egypt [Abode of slavery], out of the house of bondage.

13 Na BAWIPA Cathut hah na taki awh han. Hote Cathut dueng na bawk awh han. A min lahoi thoe hai na kâbo awh hanh.

You shall fear Adonai your God; and you shall abad ·serve· him, and shall swear by his name.

14 Alouke Cathut, na tengpam e miphunnaw e cathut hnuk na kâbang awh mahoeh.

You shall not go after other deities, of the deities of the peoples who are around you;

15 Nangmae Cathut teh nangmouh dawk dipma Cathut doeh. Nangmae BAWIPA Cathut teh nangmouh koe a lungkhuek vaiteh, talai van hoi na raphoe han tie taki hane ao.

for Adonai your God among you is El Kana' [Jealous God]; lest the anger of Adonai your God be kindled against you, and he destroy you from off the face of the earth.

16 Nangmouh ni Massah hmuen dawk na tanouk e patetlah na BAWIPA Cathut hah tanouk awh hanh.

You shall not tempt Adonai your God, as you tempted him in Massah [Testing].

You shall diligently keep the mitzvot ·instructions· of Adonai your God, and his testimonies, and his statutes, which he has enjoined you.

18 Nang na hlout nahanelah,

You shall do that which is right and good in Adonai’s sight; that it may be well with you, and that you may go in and possess the good land which Adonai swore to your fathers,

19 BAWIPA Cathut e a lawkkam patetlah tarannaw pueng, nangmae hmalah hoi ka pâlei vaiteh, nangmae na mintoenaw koe ka kam e ram hah na coe awh vaiteh, na o sak nahan, BAWIPA Cathut hmalah kalan e hno sak awh.

to thrust out all your enemies from before you, as Adonai has spoken.

20 Hmalae tueng dawk na canaw ni, kaimae Cathut ni na poe e lawkpanuesaknae, phunglawknaw hoi lawkcengnaenaw hah bangmaw a deingai telah na pacei awh pawiteh,

Some day when your child asks you in time to come, saying, “What do the testimonies, the statutes, and the judgments, which Yahweh Eloheikhem [Yahweh our God] has enjoined you mean?”

21 Nang ni kaimanaw Izip ram dawk Faro siangpahrang e san lah ka o awh nah BAWIPA e a thaonae kut hoi kaimanaw hah Izip ram hoi na tâcokhai awh.

then you shall tell your child, “We were Pharaoh’s slaves in Egypt [Abode of slavery]. Adonai brought us out of Egypt [Abode of slavery] with a mighty hand;

22 BAWIPA nihai, lentoe kângairunae hah Izip ram hoi Faro imthungkhu lathueng hai thoseh, maimae hmaitung a sak hnukkhu,

and Adonai showed great and awesome signs and wonders on Egypt [Abode of slavery], on Pharaoh, and on all his house, before our eyes;

23 Mintoenaw koe a kam e ram dawk na kâenkhai teh hmuen na poe hanelah hote ram dawk hoi na tâcokhai awh.

and he brought us out from there, that he might bring us in, to give us the land which he swore to our fathers.

24 BAWIPA ni sahnin totouh na lungma e patetlah hringnae na hlung pouh nahanelah, maimouh hawi nahanlah hete phunglawknaw pueng tarawi han. BAWIPA Cathut taki hanelah lawk na thui awh.

Adonai enjoined us to do all these statutes, to fear Yahweh Eloheikhem [Yahweh our God], for our good always, that he might preserve us alive, as we are today.

25 Hatdawkvah, maimae BAWIPA ni kâ na poe e patetlah, hete kâpoelawknaw pueng a hmalah tarawi nahanelah, na kâhruetcuet pawiteh, lannae koe na pha awh han telah, bout na dei awh han.

It shall be righteousness to us, if we observe to do all this mitzvot ·instructions· before Yahweh Eloheikhem [Yahweh our God], as he has enjoined us.”
