< Exodus 20 >

1 And the Lord spoke all these words, saying:
Pathen loh ol cungkuem he a thui tih,
2 I am the Lord thy God, who brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
Kai na Pathen Yahweh loh nang te Egypt kho kah sal im lamloh kang khuen.
3 Thou shalt have no other gods beside me.
Ka mikhmuh ah a tloe pathen te nang ham om boel saeh.
4 Thou shalt not make to thyself an idol, nor likeness of anything, whatever things are in the heaven above, and whatever are in the earth beneath, and whatever are in the waters under the earth.
Namah ham mueithuk neh vaan so lamkah khaw, diklai hman neh a dang lamkah khaw, tui khui neh a dang lamkah muei cungkuem te diklai ah saii boeh.
5 Thou shalt not bow down to them, nor serve them; for I am the Lord thy God, a jealous God, recompensing the sins of the fathers upon the children, to the third and fourth generation to them that hate me,
Te rhoek taengah bakop boel lamtah amih taengah thothueng boeh. Kai Yahweh, nang kah Pathen, thatlai Pathen loh kai aka hmuhuet taengah tah, pa rhoek kathaesainah te ca rhoek soah khongthum neh khongli hil ka cawh.
6 and bestowing mercy on them that love me to thousands [of them], and on them that keep my commandments.
Kai aka lungnah tih ka olpaek aka tuem taengah tah a thawng thawng la sitlohnah tueng.
7 Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain; for the Lord thy God will not acquit him that takes his name in vain.
Na Pathen Yahweh ming te a poeyoek la muk boeh. A ming a poeyoek la aka muk te BOEIPA loh a hmil moenih.
8 Remember the sabbath day to keep it holy.
Sabbath hnin te ciim hamla poek.
9 Six days thou shalt labour, and shalt perform all thy work.
Hnin rhuk thotat lamtah na bitat te boeih saii.
10 But on the seventh day is the sabbath of the Lord thy God; on it thou shalt do no work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy servant nor thy maidservant, thine ox nor thine ass, nor any cattle of thine, nor the stranger that sojourns with thee.
Tedae a rhih hnin tah na BOEIPA Pathen ham Sabbath ni. Na bitat cungkuem dongah, na capa khaw, na canu khaw, na salpa khaw, na salnu khaw, na rhamsa khaw, na vongka kah yinlai khaw tueih boeh.
11 For in six days the Lord made the heaven and the earth, and the sea and all things in them, and rested on the seventh day; therefore the Lord blessed the seventh day, and hallowed it.
BOEIPA loh vaan neh diklai, tuitunli neh a cungkuem he hnin rhuk ah a saii dae a rhih hnin ah duem. Te dongah BOEIPA loh Sabbath hnin te yoethen a paek tih a ciim.
12 Honour thy father and thy mother, that it may be well with thee, and that thou mayest live long on the good land, which the Lord thy God gives to thee.
Na nu neh na pa te thangpom. Te daengah ni na Pathen Yahweh loh nang taengah m'paek diklai ah na hinglung a vang eh.
13 Thou shalt not commit adultery.
Hlang ngawn boeh.
14 Thou shalt not steal.
Samphaih boeh.
15 Thou shalt not kill.
Huen boeh.
16 Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour.
Na hui te laithae laipai neh doo boeh.
17 Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's wife; thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's house; nor his field, nor his servant, nor his maid, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any of his cattle, nor whatever belongs to thy neighbour.
Na hui kah im te nai boeh. Na hui kah a yuu, a sal neh a salnu khaw, a vaito neh a laak khaw, na hui kah boeih te nai boeh,” a ti.
18 And all the people perceived the thundering, and the flashes, and the voice of the trumpet, and the mountain smoking; and all the people feared and stood afar off,
Te vaengah pilnam boeih loh olthang neh hmaithoi, tuki ol neh tlang kah a khuu te a hmuh uh. Pilnam loh a hmuh vaegah hinghuen uh tih a hla la pai uh.
19 and said to Moses, Speak thou to us, and let not God speak to us, lest we die.
Te phoeiah Moses taengah, “Namah loh kaimih taengah thui lamtah ka hnatun uh bitni. Pathen loh kaimih taengah thui boel saeh, ka duek uh ve,” a ti uh.
20 And Moses says to them, Be of good courage, for God is come to you to try you, that his fear may be among you, that ye sin not.
Te dongah Moses loh pilnam te, “Nangmih noemcai ham Pathen ha pawk kong ah rhih uh boeh. Te kong nen ni na maelhmai ah amah hinyahnah om vetih na tholh uh pawt eh.
21 And the people stood afar off, and Moses went into the darkness where God was.
Te vaengah pilnam a hla la pai tih Moses tah Pathen om nah yinnah taengla thoeih.
22 And the Lord said to Moses, Thus shalt thou say to the house of Jacob, and thou shalt report it to the children of Israel, Ye have seen that I have spoken to you from heaven.
Te phoeiah BOEIPA loh Moses te, “He he Israel ca rhoek taengah thui pah, vaan lamloh nangmih taengah ka thui te na hmuh uh.
23 Ye shall not make to yourselves gods of silver, and gods of gold ye shall not make to yourselves.
Kai neh thuidoek ham te saii uh boeh. Cakben pathen neh sui pathen khaw namamih ham saii uh boeh.
24 Ye shall make to me an altar of earth; and upon it ye shall sacrifice your whole burnt-offerings, and your peace-offerings, and your sheep and your calves in every place, where I shall record my name; and I will come to thee and bless thee.
Kai hamla diklai hmueihtuk saii lamtah a soah na hmueihhlutnah neh na rhoepnah khaw, na boiva neh na saelhung khaw nawn uh. Hmuen cungkuem ah ka ming ka thoelh vaengah nang taengla ka pawk vetih nang yoethen kam paek ni.
25 And if thou wilt make to me an altar of stones, thou shalt not build them hewn [stones]; for thou hast lifted up thy tool upon them, and they are defiled.
Kai hamla lungto hmueihtuk na saii atah a soah lungrhaih khoeng boeh. A soah na cunghang na hnonah koinih hmueihtuk ni na poeih eh.
26 Thou shalt not go up to my altar by steps, that thou mayest not uncover thy nakedness upon it.
Ka hmueihtuk kah tangtlaeng soah yoeng boeh. A soah na yah te poelyoe boeh.
