Deuteronomy 32
1 Give ear, O heavens, and I will speak; hear, O earth, the words of my mouth.
Vaan nang loh hnatun lamtah ka thui lah eh. Ka ka dongkah ol he diklai nang loh ya lah.
2 Let my teaching fall like rain and my speech settle like dew, like gentle rain on new grass, like showers on tender plants.
Ka rhingtuknah he khotlan bangla tlan saeh. Toian dongkah dotui neh baelhing dongkah mueitui bangla, ka olthui he buemtui bangla cip saeh.
3 For I will proclaim the name of the LORD. Ascribe greatness to our God!
BOEIPA ming te ka khue vetih, mamih Pathen kah boeilennah ka paan ni.
4 He is the Rock, His work is perfect; all His ways are just. A God of faithfulness without injustice, righteous and upright is He.
Uepomnah Pathen kah longpuei tah boeih tiktam tih, a bisai khaw hmabut a lungpang coeng. Te dongah amah tah dueng tih a thuem dongah, dumlai om pawh.
5 His people have acted corruptly toward Him; the spot on them is not that of His children, but of a perverse and crooked generation.
Anih te poci coeng. BOEIPA kah a ca rhoek moenih. Amih te voeldak neh vawva cadil la om tih a lolhmaih la om.
6 Is this how you repay the LORD, O foolish and senseless people? Is He not your Father and Creator? Has He not made you and established you?
Pilnam ang neh cueih aka khueh mueh, he tlam a BOEIPA na thuung eh? Anih te nang napa moenih a? Anih long la nang n'lai tih nang n'saii phoeiah khaw n'thoh dae.
7 Remember the days of old; consider the years long past. Ask your father, and he will tell you, your elders, and they will inform you.
Khosuen tue te poek lamtah, thawnpuei neh cadilcahma kah a kum te khaw yakming lah. Na pa te dawt lamtah ha puen bitni. Namah a ham rhoek long khaw nang taengah han thui uh bitni.
8 When the Most High gave the nations their inheritance, when He divided the sons of man, He set the boundaries of the peoples according to the number of the sons of God.
Khohni loh namtom a phaeng vaengah, Adam koca a hoep sak tih, Israel ca kah hlangmi bangla pilnam kah rhilung a ling.
9 But the LORD’s portion is His people, Jacob His allotted inheritance.
A pilnam he BOEIPA kah khoyo la om tih, Jakob khaw amah kah a rho khoyo la om.
10 He found him in a desert land, in a barren, howling wilderness; He surrounded him, He instructed him, He guarded him as the apple of His eye.
Anih te khosoek neh rhungnah neh khopong hinghong kho ah a hmuh. A mik dongkah thenhnaih bangla a kueinah dongah, a yakming tih khoep a ku.
11 As an eagle stirs up its nest and hovers over its young, He spread His wings to catch them and carried them on His pinions.
A bu dongkah a vaca te atha bangla haenghang. A phae a khong tih a phuel phoeiah, a ca te a loh tih a phaemul soah a ludoeng.
12 The LORD alone led him, and no foreign god was with him.
Anih te BOEIPA bueng loh a mawt tih anih taengah kholong pathen loh a om puei moenih.
13 He made him ride on the heights of the land and fed him the produce of the field. He nourished him with honey from the rock and oil from the flinty crag,
Anih te diklai hmuensang hmuensang ah a ngol sak. Khohmuen paiso khaw a cah tih, thaelpang khoitui, hmailung lungpang dongkah situi neh a khut.
14 with curds from the herd and milk from the flock, with the fat of lambs, with rams from Bashan, and goats, with the choicest grains of wheat. From the juice of the finest grapes you drank the wine.
Vaito suknaeng neh boiva kah suktui nen khaw, tuca tha nen khaw, Bashan ca rhoek tutal nen khaw, kikong kah a kuel a pang, cang neh yucang misur thii khaw na ok.
15 But Jeshurun grew fat and kicked— becoming fat, bloated, and gorged. He abandoned the God who made him and scorned the Rock of his salvation.
Tedae Jeshurun te tha putsut tih, na tha te na saibawn atah na talaeh. Anih aka saii Pathen te a phap tih khangnah lungpang vik te a hnoo sut.
16 They provoked His jealousy with foreign gods; they enraged Him with abominations.
Amah te kholong rhoek nen khaw, tueilaehkoi nen khaw a thatlai uh thil tih, amah te a veet uh.
17 They sacrificed to demons, not to God, to gods they had not known, to newly arrived gods, which your fathers did not fear.
Rhaithae rhoek te Pathen pawt mai ah a nawn uh. A thai la aka phoe paek pathen rhoek te na pa rhoek loh a ming noek moenih. A rhih khaw a rhih uh moenih.
18 You ignored the Rock who brought you forth; you forgot the God who gave you birth.
Nang aka sa lungpang te na hmaai tih nang aka poe sak Pathen te na hnilh.
19 When the LORD saw this, He rejected them, provoked to anger by His sons and daughters.
BOEIPA loh a hmuh ngawn dae, a capa neh a canu kah a konoinah dongah yah a bai.
20 He said: “I will hide My face from them; I will see what will be their end. For they are a perverse generation— children of unfaithfulness.
A cadilcahma loh calaak uh tih, a ca rhoek khaw a khuiah oltak a om pawt dongah, ka maelhmai he ka thuh saeh lamtah, amih hmailong khaw ka so dae eh.
21 They have provoked My jealousy by that which is not God; they have enraged Me with their worthless idols. So I will make them jealous by those who are not a people; I will make them angry by a nation without understanding.
Pathen pawt nen khaw amih loh kai n'thatlai thil uh tih a honghi neh kai m'veet uh. Te dongah pilnam pawt nen khaw amih te ka thatlai thil vetih, aka ang namtom neh ka veet ni.
22 For a fire has been kindled by My anger, and it burns to the depths of Sheol; it consumes the earth and its produce, and scorches the foundations of the mountains. (Sheol h7585)
Ka thintoek te hmai la ka hlae vetih Saelkhui laedil la ung kangna saeh. Diklai neh a cangpai khaw ung saeh lamtah tlang yung khaw hlawp kangna saeh. (Sheol h7585)
23 I will heap disasters upon them; I will spend My arrows against them.
Amih te kamah kah boethae thaltang neh ka khoengvoep sak vetih, amih te ka khah ni.
24 They will be wasted from hunger and ravaged by pestilence and bitter plague; I will send the fangs of wild beasts against them, with the venom of vipers that slither in the dust.
Khokha loh a thah vetih rhaekhmai loh a dom ni. Lucik khahing neh rhamsa no te amih taengah ka tueih pah vetih, kosi neh laipi dongah kawl uh ni.
25 Outside, the sword will take their children, and inside, terror will strike the young man and the young woman, the infant and the gray-haired man.
Kawtpoeng ah cunghang loh n'cakol sak vetih, imkhui ah mueirhih loh tongpang neh oila khaw, cahni neh tongpa sampok khaw a ngawn ni.
26 I would have said that I would cut them to pieces and blot out their memory from mankind,
Amih te ka phaek saeh lamtah, hlanghing lamkah amih poekkoepnah he ka toeng mai eh ka ti coeng.
27 if I had not dreaded the taunt of the enemy, lest their adversaries misunderstand and say: ‘Our own hand has prevailed; it was not the LORD who did all this.’”
Thunkha kah konoinah dongah ka bakuep sak pawt akhaw a rhal hmat uh lah ve. “Mamih kut a pomsang vetih, BOEIPA loh he he boeih saii mahpawh,” ti uh lah ve.
28 Israel is a nation devoid of counsel, with no understanding among them.
Namtom tah a cilsuep moelh tih, a lungcuei neh om pawh.
29 If only they were wise, they would understand it; they would comprehend their fate.
Cueih uh koinih lungming la om uh vetih, a hmailong khaw a yakming uh suidae.
30 How could one man pursue a thousand, or two put ten thousand to flight, unless their Rock had sold them, unless the LORD had given them up?
Pakhat loh thawngkhat metlam a hloem vetih, panit loh thawngrha a rhaelrham sak eh. Amih kah lungpang te yoih pah pawt cakhaw, amih te BOEIPA loh khoep a khaih van coeng.
31 For their rock is not like our Rock, even our enemies concede.
Amih kah lungpang te, mamih kah lungpang bangla a om pawt dongah, n'thunkha rhoek khaw rhokhan a khueh pah.
32 But their vine is from the vine of Sodom and from the fields of Gomorrah. Their grapes are poisonous; their clusters are bitter.
Amih kah misur tah, Sodom misur neh Gomorrah lohmali lamloh ha thoeng dongah, a misurthaih khaw anrhat misur khahing thaihsu la poeh.
33 Their wine is the venom of serpents, the deadly poison of cobras.
A misurtui tah tuihnam sue neh minta sue bangla muen.
34 “Have I not stored up these things, sealed up within My vaults?
Hekah he kamah taengah ka tung pawt tih, ka thakvoh dongah miknoek ka daeng moenih a?
35 Vengeance is Mine; I will repay. In due time their foot will slip; for their day of disaster is near, and their doom is coming quickly.”
Amih kho loh a paloe tue vaengah, he phulohnah neh laisahnah khaw kamah hut ni. Amih kah rhainah khohnin loh yoei coeng tih, amih taengah a coekcoe la tawn uh coeng.
36 For the LORD will vindicate His people and have compassion on His servants when He sees that their strength is gone and no one remains, slave or free.
BOEIPA loh a pilnam kah lai a tloek pah vetih, a sal pum dongkah a kut a khawk dongah a khaih banlak tih, a tlo-oeng te a hmuh vaengah hal bitni.
37 He will say: “Where are their gods, the rock in which they took refuge,
Te dongah, “Amih kah pathen tah melae, mekah lungpang khuiah lae a ying uh,” a ti bitni.
38 which ate the fat of their sacrifices and drank the wine of their drink offerings? Let them rise up and help you; let them give you shelter!
Amih kah hmueih tha aka ca tih, a boeimang misurtui aka o rhoek te thoo uh saeh lamtah, nangmih aka bom neh nangmih ham hlipyingnah la om saeh.
39 See now that I am He; there is no God besides Me. I bring death and I give life; I wound and I heal, and there is no one who can deliver from My hand.
Kai kamah tah amah moek la ka om tih, kai phoeiah pathen tloe a om pawt he hmu uh lah. Kai loh ka duek sak tih ka hing sak. Ka phop tih kamah loh ka hoeih sak. Te dongah kai kut dong lamloh aka lat thai u pakhat khaw a om moenih.
40 For I lift up My hand to heaven and declare: As surely as I live forever,
Ka kut he vaan la ka phuel tih, kamah ka mulhing he kumhal ah ka thui.
41 when I sharpen My flashing sword, and My hand grasps it in judgment, I will take vengeance on My adversaries and repay those who hate Me.
Ka cunghang te khopha bangla ka tah coeng. Ka kut dongkah laitloeknah loh pha koinih, phulohnah khaw ka rhal soah ka thuung sui tih, ka lunguet taengah ka sah sue.
42 I will make My arrows drunk with blood, while My sword devours flesh— the blood of the slain and captives, the heads of the enemy leaders.”
Ka thaltang khaw thii ka rhuihmil sak vaengah, ka cunghang loh hmalaem thii neh, thunkha tawnlo lu lamkah tamna saa te hlap pah saeh.
43 Rejoice, O heavens, with Him, and let all God’s angels worship Him. Rejoice, O nations, with His people; for He will avenge the blood of His children. He will take vengeance on His adversaries and repay those who hate Him; He will cleanse His land and His people.
A pilnam te namtom rhoek loh tamhoe puei saeh. A sal rhoek kah thii phu te loh vaengah, phulohnah neh a rhal rhoek te a thuunh vetih, a pilnam khohmuen te a dawth pah ni.
44 Then Moses came with Joshua son of Nun and recited all the words of this song in the hearing of the people.
Te phoeiah Moses te halo tih, hekah laa lung he a pilnam neh Nun capa Hosea kah hna kaepah boeih a thui pah.
45 When Moses had finished reciting all these words to all Israel,
Moses loh Israel pum taengah hekah olka cungkuem a thui te a khah.
46 he said to them, “Take to heart all these words I testify among you today, so that you may command your children to carefully follow all the words of this law.
Te phoeiah amih te, “Tihnin kah nangmih taengah kan rhalrhing sak bangla olka boeih he na thinko ah khueh uh. He olkhueng ol boeih he ngaithuen ham neh vai hamla na ca rhoek taengah khaw uen uh.
47 For they are not idle words to you, because they are your life, and by them you will live long in the land that you are crossing the Jordan to possess.”
He nangmih ham a hong ol pawt tih he ni na hingnah. He ol nen ni khohmuen ah hinglung a vang eh. Te te pang ham pahoi ni Jordan te na kat uh,” a ti nah.
48 On that same day the LORD said to Moses,
Tekah khohnin tuung dongah Moses te BOEIPA loh a voek tih,
49 “Go up into the Abarim Range to Mount Nebo, in the land of Moab across from Jericho, and view the land of Canaan, which I am giving to the Israelites as their own possession.
Jerikho imdan Moab kho kah Abarim tlang, Nebo tlang la luei lamtah kai loh Israel ca rhoek taengah khohut la ka paek Kanaan kho te so lah.
50 And there on the mountain that you climb, you will die and be gathered to your people, just as your brother Aaron died on Mount Hor and was gathered to his people.
Na maya Aaron loh Hor tlang ah duek tih a pilnam taengah a khoem uh bangla nang khaw tlang la na luei tih na duek vaengah na pilnam taengla khoem uh van laeh.
51 For at the waters of Meribah-kadesh in the Wilderness of Zin, both of you broke faith with Me among the Israelites by failing to treat Me as holy in their presence.
Zin khosoek, Meribah Kadesh tui taengkah Israel ca rhoek lakli ah kai taengla boe na koek. Israel ca rhoek lakli ah kai nan ciim pawh.
52 Although you shall see from a distance the land that I am giving the Israelites, you shall not enter it.”
Te dongah khohmuen te a hla lamloh na hmuh vetih Israel ca rhoek taengah ka paek khohmuen la na kun mahpawh,” a ti nah.
