Bawknae 17

1 BAWIPA ni Mosi koe,

And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,

2 Nang ni Aron hoi a capa, Isarel miphunnaw koe bout na dei pouh han e teh,

Speak to Aaron and to his sons, and to all the children of Israel, and thou shalt say to them, This is the word which the Lord has commanded, saying,

3 Isarel miphun dawk e tami buetbuet touh ni tu, hmae maito hah rim thung a thei nakunghai thoseh, rim alawilah a thei nakunghai thoseh,

Every man of the children of Israel, or of the strangers abiding among you, who shall kill a calf, or a sheep, or a goat in the camp, or who shall kill it out of the camp,

4 Cathut e lukkareiim hmalah, Cathut koe thuengnae sak hanelah, kamkhuengnae lukkareiim takhang koe thokhai hoehpawiteh, hote tami teh hringnae a thei dawk a yon telah pouk han. Thi ka palawng e hote tami teh a miphun dawk hoi takhoe lah ao han.

and shall not bring it to the door of the tabernacle of witness, so as to sacrifice it for a whole-burnt-offering or peace-offering to the Lord to be acceptable for a sweet-smelling savour: and whosoever shall slay it without, and shall not bring it to the door of the tabernacle of witness, so as to offer it as a gift to the Lord before the tabernacle of the Lord; blood shall be imputed to that man, he has shed blood; that soul shall be cut off from his people.

5 Isarel miphunnaw ni kahrawng um vah thueng e satheinaw hah kamkhuengnae lukkareiim takhang hmalah, Cathut koe vaihma hmalah a thokhai vaiteh, roum thuengnae a sak han.

That the children of Israel may offer their sacrifices, all that they shall slay in the fields, and bring them to the Lord unto the doors of the tabernacle of witness to the priest, and they shall sacrifice them as a peace-offering to the Lord.

6 Vaihma ni hote sathei thi hah tamimaya kamkhuengnae takhang teng e khoungroe van a kahei vaiteh, athaw hai Cathut koe hmuitui hanlah hmai a sawi han.

And the priest shall pour the blood on the altar round about before the Lord by the doors of the tabernacle of witness, and shall offer the fat for a sweet-smelling savour to the Lord.

7 Ahnimouh ni apasueke a kâyo awh e patetlah hmalah kahraituilinaw koe thuengnae bout sak awh mahoeh. Hete kâlawk teh ahnimae miphun catounnaw ditouh a tarawi hane kâlawk lah ao.

And they shall no longer offer their sacrifices to vain [gods] after which they go a whoring; it shall be a perpetual statute to you for your generations.

8 Isarel miphun thoseh, nangmouh koe kho ka sak e alouke miphun thoseh, hmaisawi thuengnae hoehpawiteh, alouke sathei buetbuet touh, a thueng navah,

And thou shalt say to them, Whatever man of the children of Israel, or of the sons of the proselytes abiding among you, shall offer a whole-burnt-offering or a sacrifice,

9 BAWIPA koe thuengnae a sak han navah, kamkhuengnae lukkareiim takhang koe a thokhai hoehpawiteh, hote tami teh a miphun dawk hoi na takhoe awh han telah ahnimouh koe na dei pouh awh han.

and shall not bring it to the door of the tabernacle of witness to sacrifice it to the Lord, that man shall be destroyed from among his people.

10 Isarel miphunnaw na hoehpawiteh, nangmouh koe kho ka sak e alouke miphunnaw, buetbuet touh ni thi cat pawiteh, hote tami teh kai ni ka maithoe vaiteh a miphun dawk hoi ka takhoe han.

And whatever man of the children of Israel, or of the strangers abiding among you, shall eat any blood, I will even set my face against that soul that eats blood, and will destroy it from its people.

11 Bangkongtetpawiteh, tak hringnae teh thi dawk doeh ao. Nangmae na sak e yontha nahanelah, hote thi hah nang koe thuengnae khoungroe van ka poe toe. Tami e yon katha thai e teh thi doeh.

For the life of flesh is its blood, and I have given it to you on the altar to make atonement for your souls; for its blood shall make atonement for the soul.

12 Hatdawkvah, nangmouh dawk apihai thi na cat awh mahoeh. Nangmouh koe kho ka sak e alouke miphunnaw hai thi cat awh mahoeh telah Isarel miphunnaw koe Kai ni kâ ka poe.

Therefore I said to the children of Israel, No soul of you shall eat blood, and the stranger that abides among you shall not eat blood.

13 Isarel miphunnaw hoehpawiteh nangmouh koe kho ka sak e alouke miphunnaw buetbuet touh ni a hrampa teh ca hanelah moithang tava man pawiteh, thi a palawng vaiteh talai hoi a paten han.

And whatever man of the children of Israel, or of the strangers abiding among you shall take any animal in hunting, beast, or bird, which is eaten, then shall he pour out the blood, and cover it in the dust.

14 Thi teh moithang pueng e hringnae lah ao. Hatdawkvah, nangmouh ni moithang buetbuet touh e thi na cat awh mahoeh telah Isarel miphunnaw koe kâ ka poe. Moithangnaw pueng ni a hringnae teh thi dawk ao dawkvah, thi ka cat e tami teh takhoe roeroe lah ao han.

For the blood of all flesh is its life; and I said to the children of Israel, Ye shall not eat the blood of any flesh, for the life of all flesh is its blood: every one that eats it shall be destroyed.

15 Amahmawk kadout e saring, sarang ni a kei e caha ka cat e, mae miphun, alouke miphun thoseh, amae khohna a pâsu vaiteh tui a kamhluk han. Tangmin totouh kathounghoehe lah ao.

And every soul which eats that which has died of itself, or is taken of beasts, either among the natives or among the strangers, shall wash his garments, and bathe himself in water, and shall be unclean until evening: then shall he be clean.

16 Khohna pâsu hoeh, tui hai kamhluk hoehpawiteh amae a yonnae ama ni a khang han telah BAWIPA ni ati.

But if he do not wash his garments, and do not bathe his body in water, then shall he bear his iniquity.
