Kâboutpoenae 8
1 Nang teh na hring vaiteh na pungdaw nahan BAWIPA Cathut ni na mintoenaw koe kam pouh e ram dawk na cei vaiteh, na coe nahanelah, sahnin kai ni lawk na poe e kâpoelawk pueng na tarawi nahanlah na kâhruetcuet han.
You must carefully follow every commandment I am giving you today, so that you may live and multiply, and enter and possess the land that the LORD swore to give your fathers.
2 Nange BAWIPA Cathut ni kâpoelawk tarawi ngainae lung na tawn hoi tawn hoeh e na tanouk awh teh, ka loum tangcoung kum 40 touh thung kahrawngum vah na hrawinae naw hah na pahnim awh mahoeh.
Remember that these forty years the LORD your God led you all the way in the wilderness, so that He might humble you and test you in order to know what was in your heart, whether or not you would keep His commandments.
3 Hottelah na lungthin rahnoum awh teh, kahaikahlam lah na o sak navah, na panue e nahoeh, na mintoenaw ni panue boihoeh e manna hoi na kawk awh teh, tami teh vaiyei hoi dueng hring hoeh, BAWIPA e lawk lahoi doeh hring tie a panue sak.
He humbled you, and in your hunger He gave you manna to eat, which neither you nor your fathers had known, so that you might understand that man does not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of the LORD.
4 Kum 40 touh thung hnicu hai pawn hoeh na khok hai phing hoeh.
Your clothing did not wear out and your feet did not swell during these forty years.
5 A na pa ni a ca a toun e patetlah na BAWIPA Cathut ni na toun tie na lung hoi na pouk han.
So know in your heart that just as a man disciplines his son, so the LORD your God disciplines you.
6 Hatdawkvah, a lamthung na dawn teh BAWIPA taki lahoi kâpoelawknaw na tarawi han.
Therefore you shall keep the commandments of the LORD your God, walking in His ways and fearing Him.
7 Bangkongtetpawiteh, na BAWIPA Cathut ni kahawi e ram, tanghling, mon dawk hoi ka phuek e tuipui, sokca, tuihnu, tuiim hoi ka kawi e ram,
For the LORD your God is bringing you into a good land, a land of brooks and fountains and springs that flow through the valleys and hills;
8 catun, barli, misurkung, thaibunglungkungnaw, talekung, hoi ka kawi e ram, olive satui, khoitui hoi ka kawi e ram,
a land of wheat, barley, vines, fig trees, and pomegranates; a land of olive oil and honey;
9 voutnae awm laipalah, ka boum lah canae ram, sumtalung hoi a kawi teh, mon dawk hoi rahum tainae ram koe nangmouh hah na hrawi awh.
a land where you will eat food without scarcity, where you will lack nothing; a land whose rocks are iron and whose hills are ready to be mined for copper.
10 Kahawi poung e ram na poe awh dawkvah, kaboumcalah na ca awh toteh, na BAWIPA Cathut e a lungmanae na pholen awh han.
When you eat and are satisfied, you are to bless the LORD your God for the good land that He has given you.
11 Sahnin kai ni na poe e kâpoelawknaw, phunglawknaw, hoi lawkcengnaenaw tarawihoehnae lahoi Cathut na pahnim awh hoeh nahanlah sahnin kai ni kâ na poe awh.
Be careful not to forget the LORD your God by failing to keep His commandments and ordinances and statutes, which I am giving you this day.
12 Ka boum lah na ca teh im kahawi dawk na o navah,
Otherwise, when you eat and are satisfied, when you build fine houses in which to dwell,
13 nangmae tu, maito, sui, ngun hoi hnopai naw apung toteh,
and when your herds and flocks grow large and your silver and gold increase and all that you have is multiplied,
14 na kâoup teh, yampa vah santoungnae Izip ram hoi na ka tâcawtkhai e,
then your heart will become proud, and you will forget the LORD your God who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery.
15 hmai tahrun, aikamnaw apap teh, tui kahran ti ohoehnae hmuen, takikathopounge kahrawngum dawk na ka hrawi niteh, hmai talung thung hoi tui ka tâcawt sak e,
He led you through the vast and terrifying wilderness with its venomous snakes and scorpions, a thirsty and waterless land. He brought you water from the rock of flint.
16 nang hah na tanouk teh, a hnukteng na pahren nahanelah, na mintoenaw ni panue boihoeh e mana hoi kahrawngum na kakawkkung nange BAWIPA Cathut hah na pahnim awh teh,
He fed you in the wilderness with manna that your fathers had not known, in order to humble you and test you, so that in the end He might cause you to prosper.
17 Ka Bahu, ka thaonae kut hoi hete hno kai ni ka tawn toe telah na lungthung hoi na pouk hoeh nahan kâhruetcuet awh.
You might say in your heart, “The power and strength of my hands have made this wealth for me.”
18 Na BAWIPA Cathut duengdoeh na pouk han, Bangkongtetpawiteh, na mintoenaw kam pouh e lawkkam hah, sahnin e patetlah caksak nahanelah, hnopai hmuthainae na kapoekung teh Cathut doeh.
But remember that it is the LORD your God who gives you the power to gain wealth, in order to confirm His covenant that He swore to your fathers even to this day.
19 Na BAWIPA Cathut na pahnim awh teh, alouke cathutnaw na hnai awh teh na bawk awh pawiteh, rawknae dawk na pha katang awh han. Sahnin kai teh nangmouh koe kapanuekkhaikung lah ka o.
If you ever forget the LORD your God and go after other gods to worship and bow down to them, I testify against you today that you will surely perish.
20 Na BAWIPA Cathut e lawk hah na ngâi awh hoeh dawkvah Jentelnaw nangmae na hmalah ka raphoe e patetlah nangmouh hai na raphoe awh han.
Like the nations that the LORD has destroyed before you, so you will perish if you do not obey the LORD your God.
