Milu Pareinae 8
1 BAWIPA ni Mosi hah a pato teh,
And the Lord said to Moses,
2 Aron hah pato nateh ahni koe, hmaiim hah na paang toteh, hmaiim sari touh ni hmaiimkhok hmalah a ang awh han, telah atipouh.
Say to Aaron, When you put the lights in their places, the seven lights will give light in front of the support.
3 A dei e patetlah Aron ni a sak. BAWIPA ni Mosi kâ a poe e patetlah hmaiimkhok a hmalah a ang hanlah hmaiim teh a paang.
And Aaron did so; he put the lights in their places so that they gave light in front of the support, as the Lord gave orders to Moses.
4 Hete hmaiimkhok teh sui hoi mek dêi sin e doeh. BAWIPA ni Mosi koe a meilam a kamnue sak e patetlah a sak pouh.
The support for the lights was of hammered gold work, from its base to its flowers it was of hammered work; from the design which the Lord had given to Moses, he made the support for the lights.
5 BAWIPA ni Mosi hah a pato teh,
And the Lord said to Moses,
6 Levihnaw hah Isarelnaw thung dawk hoi aloukcalah hmoun nateh, kamthoung sak.
Take the Levites out from among the children of Israel and make them clean.
7 Ahnimouh a kamthoung nahanelah, hettelah na sak han. Ahnimouh tak dawk thoungnae tui hah kaheisin nateh, a takbuem muen koung ngaw naseh, a khohna pâsu awh vaiteh, kamthoung naseh.
And this is how you are to make them clean: let the holy water which takes away sin be put on them, and let the hair all over their bodies be cut off with a sharp blade, and let their clothing be washed and their bodies made clean.
8 Maitotanca buet touh hoi, tavai thuengnae a kanui e satui hoi kalawt e lat sak loe. Yon thuengnae maitotanca buet touh na ceikhai han.
Then let them take a young ox and its meal offering, crushed grain mixed with oil, and take another ox for a sin-offering.
9 Levihnaw hah kamkhuengnae lukkareiim koe a ceikhai vaiteh, Isarel catoun tamimaya teh cungtalah pâkhueng.
And make the Levites come forward in front of the Tent of meeting, and let all the children of Israel come together:
10 Hahoi teh, Levihnaw hah BAWIPA hmalah na thokhai awh han. Isarel catounnaw ni Levihnaw lathueng a kut a toung pouh vaiteh,
And you are to take the Levites before the Lord: and the children of Israel are to put their hands on them:
11 Aron ni Levihnaw hah BAWIPA thaw a tawk awh thai nahan, Isarel catounnaw koe kahek thuengnae BAWIPA hmalah a poe awh han.
And Aaron is to give the Levites to the Lord as a wave offering from the children of Israel, so that they may do the Lord's work.
12 Levihnaw ni maitotanca e a lû dawk a kut a toung awh vaiteh, Levihnaw han yontha nahanlah BAWIPA Cathut hmalah maito buet touh, hmaisawi thueng nahanlah buet touh na sak han.
And the Levites are to put their hands on the heads of the oxen, and one of the oxen is to be offered for a sin-offering and the other for a burned offering to the Lord to take away the sin of the Levites.
13 Levihnaw hah Aron hoi a canaw hmalah a kangdue vaiteh, BAWIPA koe kahek thuengnae patetlah na sak han.
Then the Levites are to be put before Aaron and his sons, to be offered as a wave offering to the Lord.
14 Hot patetlah, Isarel catoun thung hoi Levihnaw hah na hmoun vaiteh, Levihnaw teh kai ka ham lah ao han.
So you are to make the Levites separate from the children of Israel, and the Levites will be mine.
15 Hathnukkhu hoi teh, Levihnaw ni kamkhuengnae lukkareiim koe a kâen awh han. Nang ni ahnimanaw thoung sak hanlah, kahek thuengnae patetlah na sak pouh han.
After that, the Levites will go in to do whatever has to be done in the Tent of meeting; you are to make them clean and give them as a wave offering.
16 Bangkongtetpawiteh, Isarel miphun thung dawk hoi ahnimanaw hah na rawi vaiteh, kai koe koung na poe han. Isarel miphunnaw ni hmaloe a khe awh e camin yueng lah ka la toe.
For they have been given to me from among the children of Israel; in place of every mother's first son, the first to come to birth in Israel, I have taken them for myself.
17 Izipnaw e caminnaw kai ni ka thei navah, Isarel miphun dawk teh tami thoseh, saring thoseh, caminnaw pueng hah kai kama hanlah ka thoung sak dawkvah, caminnaw pueng teh kai ka ham doeh.
For every mother's first son among the children of Israel is mine, the first male birth of man or beast: on the day when I sent death on all the first sons in the land of Egypt, I made them mine.
18 Hahoi Isarel catounnaw dawk camin hanlah Levihnaw teh kai ni ka la toe.
And in place of the first sons among the children of Israel, I have taken the Levites.
19 Ahnimanaw ni kamkhuengnae lukkareiim koevah, Isarelnaw ni a tawk awh hane thaw a tawk awh thai nahan thoseh, Isarel miphunnaw ni kathoungpounge hmuen koe a cei awh toteh, Lacik dawk hoi a hlout awh thai nahan, yontha sak nahan hai thoseh, Isarel miphun thung hoi Levihnaw teh Aron hoi a canaw hah ka poe telah a ti.
And I have given them to Aaron and to his sons, from among the children of Israel, to undertake for them all the work of the Tent of meeting, and to take away sin from the children of Israel so that no evil may come on them when they come near the holy place.
20 Levihnaw hanlah BAWIPA Cathut ni Mosi koe a dei e patetlah Mosi hoi Aron koehoi Isarel miphunnaw abuemlah hanelah Levihnaw ni a sak awh han.
All these things Moses and Aaron and the children of Israel did to the Levites; as the Lord gave orders to Moses about the Levites, so the children of Israel did.
21 Ahnimanaw ni thoungnae a hmu awh teh, amamae khohna a pâsu awh. Aron ni hai BAWIPA hmalah kahek thuengnae BAWIPA koe yonthanae ahnimouh han a sak teh a thoung awh.
And the Levites were made clean from sin, and their clothing was washed, and Aaron gave them for a wave offering before the Lord; and Aaron took away their sin and made them clean.
22 Hahoi teh, Levihnaw hmalah Aron hoi a canaw hmalah a thaw tawk hanlah kamkhuengnae lukkareiim thung a kâen. Levihnaw kong dawk BAWIPA ni Mosi kâ a poe e patetlah ahnimouh koe a sak pouh.
And then the Levites went in to do their work in the Tent of meeting before Aaron and his sons: all the orders which the Lord had given Moses about the Levites were put into effect.
23 BAWIPA ni Mosi hah a pato teh,
And the Lord said to Moses,
24 Hetheh Levihnaw a coungnae doeh. Kum 25 touh lathueng ni kamkhuengnae lukkareiim dawk thaw a tawk awh han.
This is the rule for the Levites: those of twenty-five years old and over are to go in and do the work of the Tent of meeting;
25 Kum 50 ka phat e ni thaw a kâhat han, tawk awh mahoeh toe.
But after they are fifty years old, they are to give up their work and do no more;
26 Hatei, kamkhuengnae lukkareiim khetyawtnae dawkvah, a hmaunawnghanaw a kabawp han. Thaw teh tawk mahoeh. Het patetlah Levihnaw a thaw kong dawk, laideitâtueng pouh loe telah atipouh.
But be with their brothers in the Tent of meeting, taking care of it but doing no work. This is what you are to do in connection with the Levites and their work.
