Deuteronomy 16

1 Observe the month of Abib and celebrate the Passover to the LORD your God, because in the month of Abib the LORD your God brought you out of Egypt by night.

Abib thapa hah ya e thapa lah pâkuem awh nateh, ceitakhai pawi lah hno awh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Abib thapa dawkvah, BAWIPA ni Izip ram hoi karum vah nangmouh na tâcokhai awh.

2 You are to offer to the LORD your God the Passover sacrifice from the herd or flock in the place the LORD will choose as a dwelling for His Name.

BAWIPA Cathut ni a min o nahanelah a rawi e hmuen koe maito hoi tu naw hah na thueng vaiteh, na BAWIPA Cathut hanelah ceitakhai pawi na to han.

3 You must not eat leavened bread with it; for seven days you are to eat with it unleavened bread, the bread of affliction, because you left the land of Egypt in haste—so that you may remember for the rest of your life the day you left the land of Egypt.

Nang ni Izip ram hoi na tâconae hnin hah na hringyung thung pahnim hoeh nahanelah ceitakhai pawi na to navah, tonphuene vaiyei hah na cat mahoeh. Tonphuenhoehe tie runae vaiyei hah hnin sari touh thung na ca awh han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Izip ram hoi karangpoung lah na tâco awh toe.

4 No leaven is to be found in all your land for seven days, and none of the meat you sacrifice in the evening of the first day shall remain until morning.

Hnin sari touh thung, na onae ram dawk tonphuene vaiyei awm sak hanh. Apasuek hnin tangmin vah, na thueng e sathei moi hah karuem tuettuet amom totouh na cawi sak mahoeh.

5 You are not to sacrifice the Passover animal in any of the towns that the LORD your God is giving you.

Na BAWIPA Cathut ni na poe e kho longkha koe vah, ceitakhai pawi sak thainae kâ kaawm e nahoeh.

6 You must only offer the Passover sacrifice at the place the LORD your God will choose as a dwelling for His Name. Do this in the evening as the sun sets, at the same time you departed from Egypt.

Na BAWIPA Cathut ni a min ao nahanelah a rawi e hmuen koevah, nang teh Izip ram hoi na tâconae tueng, kanî a khup nah tangmin vah, ceitakhai pawi thuengnae hah na sak awh han.

7 And you shall roast it and eat it in the place the LORD your God will choose, and in the morning you shall return to your tents.

Na BAWIPA Cathut ni a rawi e hmuen koe hmai na pahai awh vaiteh, na ca awh hnukkhu, amom vah im bout na ban awh han.

8 For six days you must eat unleavened bread, and on the seventh day you shall hold a solemn assembly to the LORD your God, and you must not do any work.

Hnin taruk touh thung tonphuenhoehe hah na ca awh han. A hnin sari hnin teh na BAWIPA Cathut hanelah kathounge kamkhuengnae hah na sak han. Hote hnin dawk thaw na tawk awh mahoeh.

9 You are to count off seven weeks from the time you first put the sickle to the standing grain.

Canga kamtawngnae koehoi na touk vaiteh, yat sari touh aloum hnukkhu,

10 And you shall celebrate the Feast of Weeks to the LORD your God with a freewill offering that you give in proportion to how the LORD your God has blessed you,

na BAWIPA Cathut e hmalah na BAWIPA Cathut ni yawhawi na poe e patetlah lungthocalah hoi thueng hane hno hah na sin han.

11 and you shall rejoice before the LORD your God in the place He will choose as a dwelling for His Name—you, your sons and daughters, your menservants and maidservants, and the Levite within your gates, as well as the foreigner, the fatherless, and the widows among you.

Na BAWIPA Cathut ni a min ao nahanelah a rawi e hmuen dawk, na BAWIPA Cathut hanelah yat sari pawi hah na to vaiteh, na capa, na canunaw, na sanpa sannu naw, nang koe kaawm e Levihnaw, imyinnaw, lahmai naranaw pueng ni a lunghawi awh han.

12 Remember that you were slaves in Egypt, and carefully follow these statutes.

Nang teh Izip vah san lah ouk na o e hah na pouk vaiteh, phunglawknaw hah na tarawi han.

13 You are to celebrate the Feast of Tabernacles for seven days after you have gathered the produce of your threshing floor and your winepress.

Cakang hoi misurtui hah na pâkhueng vaiteh, hnin sari touh thung lukkareiim pawi na to han.

14 And you shall rejoice in your feast—you, your sons and daughters, your menservants and maidservants, and the Levite, as well as the foreigner, the fatherless, and the widows among you.

Hote pawi na to navah, nama hoi na capa, na canunaw, na sanpa sannu naw, nang koe kaawm e Levihnaw, imyinnaw, lahmai naranaw na longkha thung kaawmnaw pueng ni a lunghawi awh han.

15 For seven days you shall celebrate a feast to the LORD your God in the place He will choose, because the LORD your God will bless you in all your produce and in all the work of your hands, so that your joy will be complete.

BAWIPA Cathut ni a rawi e hmuen koe hnin sari touh thung na BAWIPA Cathut hanelah kathounge pawi na to han. Na BAWIPA Cathut ni na kampungnae pueng koe, thaw na tawknae pueng koe, yawhawi na poe dawkvah, lunghawinae na sak han.

16 Three times a year all your men are to appear before the LORD your God in the place He will choose: at the Feast of Unleavened Bread, the Feast of Weeks, and the Feast of Tabernacles. No one should appear before the LORD empty-handed.

Ton phuen hoeh pawitonae tueng, yat sari pawitonae tueng, lukkareiim pawitonae tueng tie naw hah, kum touh dawk vai thum touh, nangmouh tongpanaw pueng teh, na BAWIPA Cathut ni a rawi e hmuen koe a hmalah na tâco awh han. Hatnavah, Cathut hmalah apihai kuthrawng hoi na tâcawt mahoeh.

17 Everyone must appear with a gift as he is able, according to the blessing the LORD your God has given you.

Na BAWIPA Cathut ni yawhawi na poe e patetlah tami pueng ni amamouh a coung thai e patetlah lengkaleng a sin awh han.

18 You are to appoint judges and officials for your tribes in every town that the LORD your God is giving you. They are to judge the people with righteous judgment.

Na BAWIPA Cathut ni yawhawi na poe e longkha kaawm e pueng dawk, lawkcengkung, bawinaw hah na onae kho tangkuem dawk na hruek awh han. Ahnimouh ni lawkceng kawinaw hah kalan lah lawk a ceng awh han.

19 Do not deny justice or show partiality. Do not accept a bribe, for a bribe blinds the eyes of the wise and twists the words of the righteous.

Nang teh phunglawk dawk hoi na phen mahoeh. Tami minhmai khet na tawn mahoeh. Tadawngnae na dâw mahoeh. Tadawngnae ni tami a lungkaang mit a dawn sak. Tami kalannaw e lawk hah a longkawi sak.

20 Pursue justice, and justice alone, so that you may live, and you may possess the land that the LORD your God is giving you.

Na BAWIPA Cathut ni na poe e ram hah nang ni na hring teh na coe nahanelah, kalan e phunglawk dawk dueng na dawn han.

21 Do not set up any wooden Asherah pole next to the altar you will build for the LORD your God,

Na BAWIPA Cathut hanelah na sak e thuengnae khoungroe teng vah, bangpatet e Asherah thing hai na ung mahoeh.

22 and do not set up for yourselves a sacred pillar, which the LORD your God hates.

Na BAWIPA Cathut ni a hmuhma e talung nama hanelah na ung mahoeh.
