Numbers 19
1 Then the LORD said to Moses and Aaron,
BOEIPA loh Moses taeng neh Aaron taengah a thui pah tih,
2 “This is the statute of the law that the LORD has commanded: Instruct the Israelites to bring you an unblemished red heifer that has no defect and has never been placed under a yoke.
“BOEIPA kah a uen bangla olkhueng dongkah khosing he Israel ca taengah voek lamtah thui pah. Nang taengla vaito ling a hmabuet hang khuen uh saeh. Te te a soah a lolhmaih om boel saeh lamtah a soah hnamkun khuen boel saeh.
3 Give it to Eleazar the priest, and he will have it brought outside the camp and slaughtered in his presence.
Te te khosoih Eleazar taengah pae saeh. Te phoeiah rhaehhmuen kah vongvoel la khuen saeh lamtah a mikhmuh ah ngawn saeh.
4 Eleazar the priest is to take some of its blood on his finger and sprinkle it seven times toward the front of the Tent of Meeting.
Te kah thii te khosoih Eleazar loh a kutdawn dongah naek saeh. Te phoeiah te kah a thii te tingtunnah dap hmai ah voei rhih haeh saeh.
5 Then the heifer must be burned in his sight. Its hide, its flesh, and its blood are to be burned, along with its dung.
Te phoeiah vaito te a mikhmuh ah hoeh saeh. A pho neh a saa khaw, a thii khaw, a aek khaw hoeh thil saeh.
6 The priest is to take cedar wood, hyssop, and scarlet wool and throw them onto the burning heifer.
Te phoeiah khosoih loh lamphai thing, pumpiding neh hlampai a lingdik te lo saeh lamtah vaito kah ungkhang khui la pup saeh.
7 Then the priest must wash his clothes and bathe his body in water; after that he may enter the camp, but he will be ceremonially unclean until evening.
Te phoeiah khosoih loh a himbai te suk saeh lamtah a pum khaw tui neh sil saeh. Te phoeiah rhaehhmuen la kun cakhaw khosoih te kholaeh due poeih uh la om saeh.
8 The one who burned the heifer must also wash his clothes and bathe his body in water, and he too will be ceremonially unclean until evening.
Te te aka hoeh long khaw a himbai te tui neh suk saeh. A pum te tui neh a silh ah pataeng hlaem due aka poeih uh la om saeh.
9 Then a man who is ceremonially clean is to gather up the ashes of the heifer and store them in a ceremonially clean place outside the camp. They must be kept by the congregation of Israel for preparing the water of purification; this is for purification from sin.
Te phoeiah hlang cuem loh vaito hloi te kol saeh lamtah rhaehhmuen vongvoel kah hmuen cuem ah khueh saeh. Te boirhaem tah Israel ca rhaengpuei ham khaw pumom tui dongkah tuemkoi la om saeh.
10 The man who has gathered up the ashes of the heifer must also wash his clothes, and he will be ceremonially unclean until evening. This is a permanent statute for the Israelites and for the foreigner residing among them.
Vaito hloi aka kol tah a himbai a suk phoeiah khaw hlaem due aka poeih uh la om saeh. Te dongah Israel ca ham neh amih khui ah aka bakuep yinlai ham khaw kumhal kah khosing la om saeh.
11 Whoever touches any dead body will be unclean for seven days.
Duek rhok aka ben hlang kah hinglu boeih tah hnin rhih khuiah aka poeih uh la om saeh.
12 He must purify himself with the water on the third day and on the seventh day; then he will be clean. But if he does not purify himself on the third and seventh days, he will not be clean.
A hnin thum dongah anih te amah cilpoe uh saeh lamtah a hnin rhih dongah caihcil saeh. A hnin thum dongah a cilpoe pawt atah a hnin rhih dongah khaw caihcil mahpawh.
13 Anyone who touches a human corpse and fails to purify himself defiles the tabernacle of the LORD. That person must be cut off from Israel. He remains unclean, because the water of purification has not been sprinkled on him, and his uncleanness is still on him.
Hlang hinglu aka duek te aka ben boeih tah duek tih a cilpoe pawt atah BOEIPA kah dungtlungim te a poeih. Te dongah tekah hinglu te Israel lamloh khoe saeh. Pumom tui te a pum dongah a haeh pawt dongah a soah a tihnai kap pueng tih rhalawt.
14 This is the law when a person dies in a tent: Everyone who enters the tent and everyone already in the tent will be unclean for seven days,
He tah dap ah hlang a duek vaengkah kah olkhueng ni. Tekah dap la aka mop boeih neh dap khuikah boeih tah hnin rhih poeih uh ni.
15 and any open container without a lid fastened on it is unclean.
A soah amhuep amtlaeng aka om pawt tih aka ah hnopai boeih te khaw rhalawt la om.
16 Anyone in the open field who touches someone who has been killed by the sword or has died of natural causes, or anyone who touches a human bone or a grave, will be unclean for seven days.
Diklai hman kah cunghang neh aka duek kah rhok khaw, hlang rhuh khaw, phuel khaw aka ben boeih tah hnin rhih poeih uh ni.
17 For the purification of the unclean person, take some of the ashes of the burnt sin offering, put them in a jar, and pour fresh water over them.
Hlang rhalawt ham tah boirhaem kah ungkhang laipi te loh pah lamtah am khuiah tui hing bueih thil saeh.
18 Then a man who is ceremonially clean is to take some hyssop, dip it in the water, and sprinkle the tent, all the furnishings, and the people who were there. He is also to sprinkle the one who touched a bone, a grave, or a person who has died or been slain.
Hlang cuem loh pumpiding a loh tih tui ah a nuem phoeiah tah dap dongah khaw, hnopai boeih dongah khaw, te kah aka om hinglu boeih, te aka ben soah, a rhuh soah khaw, duek rhok soah khaw, phuel ah khaw haeh saeh.
19 The man who is ceremonially clean is to sprinkle the unclean person on the third day and on the seventh day. After he purifies the unclean person on the seventh day, the one being cleansed must wash his clothes and bathe in water, and that evening he will be clean.
“Te phoeiah a hnin thum dong neh hnin rhih dongah tah hlang cuem loh hlang rhalawt soah haeh saeh. A hnin rhih dongah tah anih te cilpoe saeh. Te vaengah a himbai suk saeh lamtah tui hlu saeh, hlaem vaengah tah caihcil bitni.
20 But if a person who is unclean does not purify himself, he will be cut off from the assembly, because he has defiled the sanctuary of the LORD. The water of purification has not been sprinkled on him; he is unclean.
Poeih uh tih aka cilpoe uh pawt hlang tah BOEIPA kah rhokso a poeih dongah hlangping khui lamloh a hinglu hnawt pah saeh. Pumom tui te anih soah a haeh pawt dongah anih te rhalawt.
21 This is a permanent statute for the people: The one who sprinkles the water of purification must wash his clothes, and whoever touches the water of purification will be unclean until evening.
Amih ham kumhal kah khosing la om coeng tih pumom tui aka haeh tah a himbai suk uh saeh. Te dongah pumom tui aka ben khaw hlaem duela poeih uh ni.
22 Anything the unclean person touches will become unclean, and anyone who touches it will be unclean until evening.”
A soah rhalawt loh a ben boeih khaw poeih uh. Te te aka ben hinglu khaw hlaem duela poeih uh ni,” a ti nah.
