< Numbers 5 >

1 Then the LORD said to Moses,
BOEIPA loh Moses te a voek tih,
2 “Command the Israelites to send away from the camp anyone with a skin disease, anyone who has a bodily discharge, and anyone who is defiled by a dead body.
“Israel ca te uen lamtah aka pahuk boeih neh aka hnai boeih khaw, hinglu aka rhalawt boeih te rhaehhmuen lamloh tueih uh.
3 You must send away male and female alike; send them outside the camp so they will not defile their camp, where I dwell among them.”
Tongpa lamloh huta hil rhaehhmuen kah vongvoel la tueih. Amih khui ah ka om te amih na tueih uh daengah ni a rhaehhmuen a poeih uh pawt eh?,” a ti nah.
4 So the Israelites did this, sending such people outside the camp. They did just as the LORD had instructed Moses.
Israel ca rhoek loh a ngai tangloeng tih amih te rhaehhmuen kah a voel la a tueih uh. BOEIPA loh Moses taengah a uen bangla Israel ca rhoek loh a saii tangloeng uh.
5 And the LORD said to Moses,
Te phoeiah BOEIPA loh Moses te a voek tih,
6 “Tell the Israelites that when a man or woman acts unfaithfully against the LORD by committing any sin against another, that person is guilty
“Isreal ca rhoek te tongpa khaw huta khaw thui pah. BOEIPA taengah boekoeknah la boekoek ham hlang kah tholhnah cungkuem a saii uh dongah a hinglu te boe coeng.
7 and must confess the sin he has committed. He must make full restitution, add a fifth to its value, and give all this to the one he has wronged.
Te dongah tholhnah a saii uh te phoe uh saeh lamtah a hmaithennah te a lu taengah mael saeh. Te phoeiah te te a panga neh koei saeh lamtah anih aka boe sak taengah pae saeh.
8 But if the man has no relative to whom restitution can be made for the wrong, the restitution belongs to the LORD and must be given to the priest along with the ram of atonement, by which the atonement is made for him.
Tedae aka tlan ham hlang neh a taengah hmaithennah a sah ham a om pawt atah, hmaithennah te BOEIPA taengah khosoih ham pae saeh. Te vaengah anih ham dawthnah tutal bueng neh dawth pah saeh.
9 Every sacred contribution the Israelites bring to the priest shall belong to him.
Israel ca rhoek kah a cim boeih lamloh khocang cungkuem khaw khosoih taengla khuen saeh lamtah anih ham om saeh.
10 Each man’s sacred gifts are his own, but whatever he gives to the priest will belong to the priest.”
Hlang he amah, amah ah hnocim rhip a khueh te khosoih taengah pae saeh lamtah anih ham om pah saeh,” a ti nah.
11 Then the LORD said to Moses,
BOEIPA loh Moses te a voek tih,
12 “Speak to the Israelites and tell them that if any man’s wife goes astray and is unfaithful to him
“Israel ca rhoek taengah thui pah lamtah amih te, 'Hlang pakhat kah a yuu te taengphael tih a taengah boekoeknah la boe a koek,
13 by sleeping with another man, and it is concealed from her husband and her impurity is undetected (since there is no witness against her and she was not caught in the act),
anih te tongpa loh yangtui kah a khaan neh a yalh puei atah a va mikhmuh lamloh hlipdah uh tih thuh uh cakhaw amah poeih uh coeng. Tedae anih taengah laipai om pawt tih anih tu pawh,
14 and if a feeling of jealousy comes over her husband and he suspects his wife who has defiled herself—or if a feeling of jealousy comes over him and he suspects her even though she has not defiled herself—
Anih soah thatlainah mueihla a pha akhaw, a yuu taengah a thatlai akhaw, huta te poeih uh tih tongpa soah thatlainah mueihla a caeh khaw, a yuu taengah thatlai dae a yuu a poeih uh pawt akhaw,
15 then he is to bring his wife to the priest. He must also bring for her an offering of a tenth of an ephah of barley flour. He is not to pour oil over it or put frankincense on it, because it is a grain offering for jealousy, an offering of memorial as a reminder of iniquity.
tongpa loh a yuu te khosoih taengla khuen saeh lamtah anih ham a nawnnah te cangtun vaidam cangnoek parha khuen saeh. Tekah kah thatlainah kah khocang dongah a soah situi khaw bueih boel saeh lamtah hmueihtui khaw a soah khueh boel saeh. Poekkoepnah khocang lothaesainah te thoelh saeh.
16 The priest is to bring the wife forward and have her stand before the LORD.
Te phoeiah anih te khosoih loh khuen saeh lamtah BOEIPA mikhmuh ah pai sak saeh.
17 Then he is to take some holy water in a clay jar and put some of the dust from the tabernacle floor into the water.
Te vaengah khosoih loh lai am dongah tui cim khuen saeh. Dungtlungim cirhong ah aka om laipi te khaw khosoih loh lo saeh lamtah tui khuiah sang saeh.
18 After the priest has the woman stand before the LORD, he is to let down her hair and place in her hands the grain offering of memorial, which is the grain offering for jealousy. The priest is to hold the bitter water that brings a curse.
Te phoeiah khosoih loh huta te BOEIPA mikhmuh ah pai sak saeh lamtah huta lu te lim pah saeh. Thatlainah khocang dongkah poekkoepnah khocang neh khosoih kut ah aka om tih thae a phoei thil khahing tui te a kut ah pae saeh.
19 And he is to put the woman under oath and say to her, ‘If no other man has slept with you and you have not gone astray and become defiled while under your husband’s authority, may you be immune to this bitter water that brings a curse.
Anih te khosoih loh toemngam saeh lamtah huta te, “Nang taengah hlang yalh pawt tih na va hmuiah a tihnai neh na taengphael pawt atah he kah thae a phoei thil khahing tui loh m'hmil saeh.
20 But if you have gone astray while under your husband’s authority and have defiled yourself and lain carnally with a man other than your husband’—
Tedae nang te na va hmui lamloh na taengphael tih na poeih uh vaengah hlang loh nang te na va a om pawt ah a tamtah te a khueh khaming,’ ti nah saeh.
21 and the priest shall have the woman swear under the oath of the curse—‘then may the LORD make you an attested curse among your people by making your thigh shrivel and your belly swell.
Te vaengah khosoih loh huta te thaephoeinah olhlo neh toemngam saeh. Khosoih loh huta te, “BOEIPA loh nang te na pilnam khui kah thaephoeinah neh olhlo bangla n'khueh saeh. BOEIPA loh n'saii vaengah na phai pim saeh lamtah na bung khaw thung saeh.
22 May this water that brings a curse enter your stomach and cause your belly to swell and your thigh to shrivel.’ Then the woman is to say, ‘Amen, Amen.’
Thaephoei tui he na ko khuila kun saeh lamtah na bung thung saeh, na phai pim saeh,’ ti nah saeh. Te vaengah huta loh, “Amen, Amen,” ti saeh.
23 And the priest shall write these curses on a scroll and wash them off into the bitter water.
He kah thaephoeinah he khosoih loh cabu khuiah daek saeh lamtah khahing tui neh huih saeh.
24 He is to have the woman drink the bitter water that brings a curse, and it will enter her and cause her bitter suffering.
Thaephoei khahing tui te huta tul saeh lamtah thaephoei tui te a khuiah khahing la kun saeh.
25 The priest shall take from her hand the grain offering for jealousy, wave it before the LORD, and bring it to the altar.
Te vaengah khosoih loh huta kut lamkah thatlainah khocang te lo saeh. Tedae khocang te BOEIPA mikhmuh ah thueng saeh lamtah hmueihtuk la khuen saeh.
26 Then the priest is to take a handful of the grain offering as a memorial portion and burn it on the altar; after that he is to have the woman drink the water.
Te phoeiah khosoih loh kamhoeinah khocang te paco saeh lamtah hmueihtuk ah a phum phoeiah a hnuk la huta te tui tul saeh.
27 When he has made her drink the water, if she has defiled herself and been unfaithful to her husband, then the water that brings a curse will enter her and cause bitter suffering; her belly will swell, her thigh will shrivel, and she will become accursed among her people.
Anih te poeih uh tih a va taengah boekoeknah neh boekoek la a om atah tui a tul tih a khuila thaephoei tui a kun vaengah khahing ni. Te vaengah a bung thung vetih a phai pim ni. Huta te a pilnam khui ah thaephoeinah la om ni.
28 But if the woman has not defiled herself and is clean, she will be unaffected and able to conceive children.
Tedae huta te poeih uh pawt tih a cim atah anih te a hmil vetih tiingan a yom ni.
29 This is the law of jealousy when a wife goes astray and defiles herself while under her husband’s authority,
He tah Huta loh a va hman ah na taengphael tih a poeih uh vaengkah ham thatlainah olkhueng ni.
30 or when a feeling of jealousy comes over a husband and he suspects his wife. He is to have the woman stand before the LORD, and the priest is to apply to her this entire law.
Tongpa khaw a soah thatlainah mueihla loh a pah tih a yuu taengah a thatlai akhaw a yuu te BOEIPA mikhmuh ah pai sak saeh. Te vaengah hekah olkhueng cungkuem he khosoih loh anih taengah saii pah saeh.
31 The husband will be free from guilt, but the woman shall bear her iniquity.”
Tongpa te thaesainah lamloh hmil cakhaw huta tah amah kathaesainah te phuei saeh,” a ti nah.
