Bawknae 20
1 BAWIPA ni Mosi koe, nang ni Isarel miphunnaw koe bout na dei pouh hane teh,
And Jehovah spake unto Moses, saying,
2 Isarel taminaw thoseh, Isarelnaw koe kho ka sak e alouke miphunnaw thoseh, amae canaw Molek koe, ka poe e tami teh thei roeroe han. Khocanaw ni talung hoi a dei awh han.
Moreover, thou shalt say to the children of Israel, Whosoever he be of the children of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn in Israel, that giveth of his seed unto Molech; he shall surely be put to death: the people of the land shall stone him with stones.
3 Kaie hmuen kathoung kakhin sak niteh, Ka min kathoung kamathout sak niteh, amae canaw Molek koe ka poe e tami teh, Kai ni mithmaithung sin vaiteh, a miphun dawk hoi ka takhoe han.
I also will set my face against that man, and will cut him off from among his people; because he hath given of his seed unto Molech, to defile my sanctuary, and to profane my holy name.
4 Amae canaw Molek koe ka poe e tami hah, khocanaw ni nout laipalah thet awh hoeh pawiteh,
And if the people of the land do at all hide their eyes from that man, when he giveth of his seed unto Molech, and put him not to death;
5 Hottelah kaawm e tami hoi a imthungkhunaw hah, Kai ni mithmaithung sin vaiteh, ahni hai thoseh, ahni hoi cungtalah Molek koe, ka kâyawtnaw hai thoseh, ahnimae miphun dawk hoi ka takhoe han.
then I will set my face against that man, and against his family, and will cut him off, and all that play the harlot after him, to play the harlot with Molech, from among their people.
6 Lam ka phen ni teh kahrai khueyue koe kamlang e taminaw hoi camkathoumnaw koe kâyawt e naw hah, mithmaithung sin vaiteh, a miphun dawk hoi ka takhoe han.
And the soul that turneth unto them that have familiar spirits, and unto the wizards, to play the harlot after them, I will even set my face against that soul, and will cut him off from among his people.
7 Nangmae BAWIPA KAI Cathut teh kathoung dawkvah nangmouh hai kâthoung sak awh nateh, kathoung lah awm awh.
Sanctify yourselves therefore, and be ye holy; for I am Jehovah your God.
8 Kaie ka phunglamnaw hah na tarawi awh han. Kai teh BAWIPA, nangmouh na kathoung sak e BAWIPA doeh.
And ye shall keep my statutes, and do them: I am Jehovah who sanctifieth you.

For every one that curseth his father or his mother shall surely be put to death: he hath cursed his father or his mother; his blood shall be upon him.

And if a man shall take his sister, his father’s daughter, or his mother’s daughter, and see her nakedness, and she see his nakedness; it is a shameful thing; and they shall be cut off in the sight of the children of their people: he hath uncovered his sister’s nakedness; he shall bear his iniquity.

Ye shall therefore make a distinction between the clean beast and the unclean, and between the unclean fowl and the clean: and ye shall not make your souls abominable by beast, or by bird, or by anything wherewith the ground teemeth, which I have separated from you as unclean.
26 Kai Cathut, kathoung dawkvah nangmouh na panki teh Jentelnaw hoi na kapek dawkvah, Kai hanelah na kâthoung awh han.
And ye shall be holy unto me: for I, Jehovah, am holy, and have set you apart from the peoples, that ye should be mine.
