Deuteronomy 17
1 You shall not sacrifice to the LORD your God an ox or a sheep with any defect or serious flaw, for that is detestable to the LORD your God.
Ana damlou gancha kiti phot Pakai, Pathen henga nakatdoh thei lou diu ahi. Ajeh chu Pakaiya dia hitobang thilpeh hohi thet um ahi.
2 If a man or woman among you in one of the towns that the LORD your God gives you is found doing evil in the sight of the LORD your God by transgressing His covenant
Pakai, Pathen in napehnau gam'a nachen tenguleh, nalah uva kona numei hileh pasal hileh Pakai, na Pathen'u mitmua aphalou nabol thei lou diu chule kitepna nasuhboh thei lou diu ahi.
3 and going to worship other gods, bowing down to them or to the sun or moon or any of the host of heaven—which I have forbidden—
Semthu pathen dang angsung, nisa chule ahsiho vamthamjol kitiho jouse angsunga naboh khup theilou diu ahi.
4 and if it is reported and you hear about it, you must investigate it thoroughly. If the report is true and such an abomination has happened in Israel,
Hitobang hohi nakhol chilsoh kei diu ahi. Ajeh chu Israel mite lah a hitobang hi umkha get inte.
5 you must bring out to your gates the man or woman who has done this evil thing, and you must stone that person to death.
Numei hileh pasal hileh hitobanga chon chu, khopi pam lama nodoh ding songa se lih ding ahi.
6 On the testimony of two or three witnesses a man shall be put to death, but he shall not be executed on the testimony of a lone witness.
Hinlah mikhat jeng seh thutannan mithat hih un, mithum beh thutanna'a chu thina nachan sah thei diu ahi.
7 The hands of the witnesses shall be the first in putting him to death, and after that, the hands of all the people. So you must purge the evil from among you.
Thutanpa chun songa ase masat ding, chuteng mipin ase ding ahi. Hitia chu nalah uva kona aphalouva chon chu nano doh diu ahi.
8 If a case is too difficult for you to judge, whether the controversy within your gates is regarding bloodshed, lawsuits, or assaults, you must go up to the place the LORD your God will choose.
Nalah uva thilsoh chung thu tanna ahahsat behseh a, hichu phat louna, tol-that, mithat chule dan chung kalvala chon achung thua boina chom chom neiya auma ahileh, hitobang chu Pakai, na Pathen henga nalhut diu ahi.
9 You are to go to the Levitical priests and to the judge who presides at that time. Inquire of them, and they will give you a verdict in the case.
Chule hitobang ho chu danthempuho henga aphatcha napui diu ahi. Amahon achungchang thu angai diu chuteng thu lhuhna asem diu ahi.
10 You must abide by the verdict they give you at the place the LORD will choose. Be careful to do everything they instruct you,
Amahon thu lhuhna asem uchu Pakai muntheng lama nahin lhut diu, amahon asei bang uva nabol diu ahi.
11 according to the terms of law they give and the verdict they proclaim. Do not turn aside to the right or to the left from the decision they declare to you.
Dan dung juiya thulhuhna chu ahin phondoh tenguleh, thulhuhna jouse chu ahina banga chelha ding, imacha na hapbe thei tah lou diu ahi.
12 But the man who acts presumptuously, refusing to listen either to the priest who stands there to serve the LORD your God, or to the judge, must be put to death. You must purge the evil from Israel.
Koihileh Pakai, Pathen angsunga thutan vaihom ho natohna deilou vetsahna jal'a kisa auma ahileh, thina chang ding ahi. Hitia chu phat louna kiti phot Israel mite lah akona nano mang diu ahi.
13 Then all the people will hear and be afraid, and will no longer behave arrogantly.
Hitobang chu mi jousen ahin jahsoh kei diu, chuteng koima aphalouva chon ngam talou ding ahi.
14 When you enter the land that the LORD your God is giving you and have taken possession of it and settled in it, and you say, “Let us set a king over us like all the nations around us,”
Ajeh chu Pakai, Pathen in napehnau gamsung nalhun diu ahitai. Hiche gamsung nalhun tenguleh, i-lamkai diuvin leng khat, nam dangte kivaipoh nabang in tungdoh tauhite tia nasei diu ahi.
15 you are to appoint over yourselves the king whom the LORD your God shall choose. Appoint a king from among your brothers; you are not to set over yourselves a foreigner who is not one of your brothers.
Chutengleh Israel mite lah a Pakai, Pathen in atundoh ding ahi. Hichu nalah uva mikhat pen pang ding, amavang kholjin mi nalhen thei lou diu ahi.
16 But the king must not acquire many horses for himself or send the people back to Egypt to acquire more horses, for the LORD has said, ‘You are never to go back that way again.’
Leng a pang pen ding pen chun, sakol kangtalai ngaichat jeh’a mikhat tou Egypt gam'a sakol kangtalai cho dinga asol thei lou ding ahi. Ajeh chu nangho Egypt gam nakile kit thei lou diu ahitai.
17 He must not take many wives for himself, lest his heart go astray. He must not accumulate for himself large amounts of silver and gold.
Lengpa chun jitampi anei thei lou ding ahi. Ajeh chu amahon Pakai akona apui mang thei diu ahi. Chule ama ding jeng ajong sana leh dangka akikhol thei lou ding ahi.
18 When he is seated on his royal throne, he must write for himself a copy of this instruction on a scroll in the presence of the Levitical priests.
Leng touna mun alo tengleh, amapa chun danbu akilah ding, alal-touna muna chu akikoi ding ahi.
19 It is to remain with him, and he is to read from it all the days of his life, so that he may learn to fear the LORD his God by carefully observing all the words of this instruction and these statutes.
Hiche danbu lekhajol chu akoma akoi ding adamlai sunga asim jing ding ahi. Hichea kona chu dan leh thupeh ijakai Pakaiya kon in aume ti amu chet ding, dengchang tah’a ajui jing ding ahi.
20 Then his heart will not be exalted above his countrymen, and he will not turn aside from the commandment, to the right or to the left, in order that he and his sons may reign many years over his kingdom in Israel.
Hiche lekhajol asima kona chu kiletsahna puma, achenkhompi mi jouse sanga chungnung kahi tia umlou ding ahi. Chule hichea kona hi lamchoma kihei mang louva umjing ding kahi tijong ahet doh thei ding ahi. Keima leh ka chilhah ten Israel sung hi akhang akhanga ka vaihop diu ahi, tijong het dohna anei thei diu ahi.
