< Exodus 21 >
1 And these [are] the ordinances which thou shalt set before them.
“Hicheng se hi Israel mite chon'na ding dan ahiye.
2 If thou buy a Hebrew servant, six years shall he serve thee, and in the seventh year he shall go forth free for nothing.
“Hebrew mi soh ding'a na choh teng le, amachun kumgup sungse'a sohna chu atoh jing ding, kumsagi ahung lhin teng vang le soh'a kivul michu chamlhat chang ding che ding ahitai,” ati.
3 If he should have come in alone, he shall also go forth alone; and if his wife should have gone in together with him, his wife also shall go out.
“Soh'a pangpa chu amachang seh seh bou ahileh, amabou kile ding Chule, jineisa ahi khah tah le, ajinu jaona anilhon'na kilhon doh lhon ding ahi.”
4 Moreover, if his master give him a wife, and she have [born] him sons or daughters, the wife and the children shall be his master's; and he shall go forth alone.
“Hiche sohpa chu apupan ji aholpeh'a ahile, achate sese leh sohpa jinu chu apupa chang ding, ajona teng le sohpa chu achang seh'a che ding ahi.”
5 And if the servant should answer and say, I love my master and wife and children, I will not go away free;
Ahinlah sohpa chu hitia asei ding, ka pupa ahin ka jinu chule ka chate abonchauvin kalha ngaijin,’ chamlhat chang din che da jeng ing'e tia aseija,
6 his master shall bring him to the judgment-seat of God, and then shall he bring him to the door, —to the door-post, and his master shall bore his ear through with an awl, and he shall serve him for ever.
Hichepa chu apupan Pathen heng'a ahin puiding, hiche asohpa chu kotphung gei hihen kotphung khom chang hijongh leh ahin puija, chuteng apupan thihtul khat'a asohpa bilkol a vuhom peh ding, hiche teng chule sohpa chun nilhum keija apupa kin'a kisa lal ding ahiye.
7 And if any one sell his daughter as a domestic, she shall not depart as the maid-servants depart.
Pasal khat bang chun achanu soh ding'a akijoh doh ding'a ahile, amanu chu soh pasal ho bang'a kisol doh lou ding ahi.
8 If she be not pleasing to her master, after she has betrothed herself to him, he shall let her go free; but he is not at liberty to sell her to a foreign nation, because he has trifled with her.
Hiche sohnu chun apupa lunglhaina mong mong aboldoh jou lou ding'a ahile, apupan jong mi dang akilhat doh sah thei jeng ding, apupan hiche sohnu chu kitahna nei louvin anabol tan ahile amanu chu apupan jong gamchom ma joh doh son nading ima agel lou ding ahi.
9 And if he should have betrothed her to his son, he shall do to her according to the right of daughters.
“Ahinlah hiche sohnu chu apupan achapa sohnu a pang ding a agella ahile amanu chu achanu ngai ngai banga bol ding ahiye.”
10 And if he take another to himself, he shall not deprive her of necessaries and her apparel, and her companionship [with him].
“Ibang khat a achapa chun amading'a ji achom akipui khah tah a ahile, sohnu chu aji hina'a an-neh ding, sil-le-chen ding leh athaneina ima asuhnem peh chom lou ding ahi.”
11 And if he will not do these three things to her, she shall go out free without money.
“Asohnu dinga chu hicheng thum hochu abolpeh louva ahile, asohnu chun bat ima neilouva sum jong pelouva adalhah jeng thei ding ahi.”
12 And if any man smite another and he die, let him be certainly put to death.
“Khat touvin midang chun'a akhut alha khah'a ahile, akhut lhapa chu tha teitei ding ahi.”
13 But as for him that did it not willingly, but God delivered him into his hands, I will give thee a place whither the slayer may flee.
“Ahinlah kihetkhelna maimaija konna ahile, hichu Pathen in amosah lou ding, keiman nangma munding kasem pehsa nahiye atia ahile hiche laimuna chu mivolihpa jamlut'a kihuh hing thei ding ahi.”
14 And if any one lie in wait for his neighbour to slay him by craft, and he go for refuge, thou shalt take him from my altar to put him to death.
“Amavang, khat touvin aloipa hamkhat chu atha jeng'a ahile, hiche mithat pachu keima maicham phung'a konna tha ding'a napuidoh ding ahi, ati.”
15 Whoever smites his father or his mother, let him be certainly put to death.
“Koi hile, anuham apa ham vo'a achung'a khut lha aumma ahile ama chu tha jeng ding ahi.”
16 He that reviles his father or his mother shall surely die.
“Mihem gumang aum'a, amiguhpa bang chu ana johdoh tah'a chule akomma ana um nah laiya, akomma aum pet hichu amatoh kimudoh khom hijong leh, akimu doh pachu tha jeng ding ahiye.”
17 Whosoever shall steal one of the children of Israel, and prevail over him and sell him, and he be found with him, let him certainly die.
“Koiman anu apa a engbol thei lou ding amavang anu engbol mihem chu tha jeng ding ahiye.”
18 And if two men revile each other and smite the one the other with a stone or his fist, and he die not, but be laid upon his bed;
“Tun, Pasal khat le pasal khat akinah a, khatpan jong khat pachu song tum'a asuh ham akhut tumma akhet hamma ahile hiche amisuh pachu thipei dehlouva ahile jalkhun anga ding ahi.”
19 if the man arise and walk abroad on his staff, he that smote him shall be clear; only he shall pay for his loss of time, and for his healing.
“Ahinlah alhupa chu ahung kitho doh'a tenggol mangcha a ava le theiya ahile, ama anasukhapa chu achungchang kisutheng thei ding, anat nasung'a aki jenna phat mansah chengse alepeh ding chule ajen dam sel ding ahiye.”
20 And if a man smite his man-servant or his maid-servant, with a rod, and [the party] die under his hands, he shall be surely punished.
“Mihem khat touvin asohpa ham asohnu ham chung'a khut alha'a athikhah a ahile, soh neipa chu thina chang ding ahiye.”
21 But if [the servant] continue to live a day or two, let not [the master] be punished; for he is his money.
“Ahinlah hiche soh kijep penchu nikhat ahilou le nini sung'a adam theng tah'a ahile, sohchung'a khut lha mihem chu thina chang lou ding ahiye. Ajeh chu soh kivul michu ama nei gou khat ahi.”
22 And if two men strive and smite a woman with child, and her child be born imperfectly formed, he shall be forced to pay a penalty: as the woman's husband may lay upon him, he shall pay with a valuation.
“Tun tekah nan, Pasal khat le pasal khat akinah tan, numei naovop lai chu asuh khah tah lhonna anaovop chu kisuhmo'a aphat louva ahungpot doh khah tah le, numeinu suhkha penpen chu ajipan jong anop channa aman adel khum jeng thei ahi. Ahinlah apeh ding chengse chu thutan vaihom hon aphatsah peh'u angaiye.”
23 But if it be perfectly formed, he shall give life for life,
“Amavang numeinu kisuklhahna khonung'a ahung nat khat tah ahile: hiche hinkho khel ding'a chu hin kho khat ma lepeh ding ahi.”
24 eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot,
Mitchang khella michang hiding, haa khella haa hiding, khut khel la khut hiding, keng khel la kengg na peh ding ahi,
25 burning for burning, wound for wound, stripe for stripe.
Meiyin akah'a ahile meikah jeh'a meiya nale peh ding, kimavo jeh'a namavoa chule kijep jeh'a chu nale jep jeng ding ahi, ati.
26 And if one smite the eye of his man-servant, or the eye of his maid-servant, and put it out, he shall let them go free for their eye's sake.
“Mihem koitobang khat chun asohpa ahilou leh asohnu ham mit asuh khah peh'a ahile, hiche soh chu amit adam loutah jeh'a chamlhat ding'a asol doh jeng ding ahiye.”
27 And if he should smite out the tooth of his man-servant, or the tooth of his maid-servant, he shall send them away free for their tooth's sake.
“Soh goiya pang pan jong asohnu ham, asohpa ham khat achu ahaa asuhlhoi peh a hile, ahaa asuh lhopipeh tah jeh'a hiche sohpa ham sohnu ham chu chmalhat chansah ding'a asol doh ding ahitai.”
28 And if a bull gore a man or woman and they die, the bull shall be stoned with stones, and his flesh shall not be eaten; but the owner of the bull shall be clear.
“Bongchal khattou vin numei ham pasal ham khat chu aki'a ahin pihlih khah'a ahile, hiche bongchal chu song'a selih jeng ding ahiye. Amavang bongsa chu koiman aneh theilou ding chuteng bong neipa ding'a achungchang thu kisutheng ahitai,” ati.
29 But if the bull should have been given to goring in former time, and men should have told his owner, and he have not removed him, but he should have slain a man or woman, the bull shall be stoned, and his owner shall die also.
“Ahinlah hiche bongchal chun masang kisanna mihem dang ana pihlih sa ahileh, aneipa jeng'in jong anahsah lou ahitah leh, hiche bongchal in jong numei ham pasal ham chu aki a apihlih khah'a ahileh, bongchal chu thadoh jeng ding chule aneipa jeng jong anigel la tha teitei lhon ding ahiye.”
30 And if a ransom should be imposed on him, he shall pay for the ransom of his soul as much as they shall lay upon him.
Amavang athipa chu longlhat na ding'a aki peh doh'a ahile, aki pehdoh sah jatchu aman jong long lhatna ding'a apeh ding ahi.”
31 And if [the bull] gore a son or daughter, let them do to him according to this ordinance.
“Hiche bongchal chun numei ham pasal ham khat ahin peh lih khah bang le, hiche gancha neipa chu dan kisem dungjuija kitham gah ding ahi.”
32 And if the bull gore a man-servant or maid-servant, he shall pay to their master thirty silver didrachms, and the bull shall be stoned.
“Bongchal chun soh numeija pang ham pasal ham khat chu ahin pihlih bang leh, bongchal neipan jong sohneipa chu dangka shekel somthum apeh teitei ding chule hiche bongchal chu song'a aselih pai jeng ding ahi.”
33 And if any one open a pit or dig a cavity in stone, and cover it not, and an ox or an ass fall in there,
“Tekah nan mikhat chun kokhuh khah bit louva adalhah jeng'a chule hiche kokhuh sin kikhah bit louva adalhah'a sangan ham bongchal ham kokhuh'a alhah lut'a athi den tah'a ahileh,
34 the owner of the pit shall make compensation; he shall give money to their owner, and the dead shall be his own.
“Kokhuh neipan jong aphat toh kitoh chatna asem phat ding, gancha neipa jong sum apeh ding, a gancha pohlih vang chu ama chang ding ahi.”
35 And if any man's bull gore the bull of his neighbour, and it die, they shall sell the living bull and divide the money, and they shall divide the dead bull.
“Mihem khat bongchal chun mi dang khat bongchal a suhkhah a asuh khah bongchal chu athi jeng'a ahile, bong nei ten jong hiche bong chal athinai louchu akijoh doh diu aki johdohna man vang chu kihom lhon ding, hiche bongchal thisa jeng jong chu aman kihom lhon ding ahi.”
36 But if the bull be known to have been given to goring in time past, and they have testified to his owner, and he have not removed him, he shall repay bull for bull, but the dead shall be his own.
“Ahinlah hiche bongchal chun masang jeng'ajong gancha dang ana pihlih jeng'a ahile, aneipa jeng in jong ahilchahsa ahi a chule ngaisah'a akoi louva ahile, anei pan jong bongchal thi chu bongchal khat mama'a alesah ding, bongchal thisa vang chu ama chang teitei ding ahiye.”
