Deuteronomy 13
1 “If there will have arisen in your midst a prophet, or someone who claims that he had seen a dream, and if he will have predicted sign and portent,
Nang taengah tonghma neh mang aka man te ha poe tih miknoek neh kopoekrhai khaw nang taengah m'paek mai ni.
2 and if what he has spoken happens, and he says to you, ‘Let us go and follow strange gods,’ which you have not known, ‘and let us serve them,’
Tedae miknoek neh kopoekrhai te hang khuen tih nang ham a thui vaengah, “Na ming noek pawh pathen tloe hnukah vai uh sih lamtah amih taengah thothueng uh sih,” a ti ni.
3 you shall not listen to the words of that prophet or dreamer. For the Lord your God is testing you, so that it may become clear whether or not you love him with all your heart and with all your soul.
Tonghma te khaw, mang aka man khaw a ol hnatun pah boeh. Na ming uh ham tah nangmih loh BOEIPA na Pathen aka noemcai rhung la na om uh ve. BOEIPA na Pathen te na thinko boeih na hinglu boeih neh lungnah lah.
4 Follow the Lord your God, and fear him, and keep his commandments, and listen to his voice. Him shall you serve, and to him shall you cling.
BOEIPA na Pathen hnuk te vai lamtah amah te rhih lah. A olpaek te ngaithuen lamtah a ol te hnatun lah. Amah taengah thothueng lamtah amah dongah hangdang lah.
5 But that prophet or forger of dreams shall be put to death. For he has spoken so as to turn you away from the Lord your God, who led you away from the land of Egypt and who redeemed you from the house of servitude, and so as to cause you to wander from the way that the Lord your God has entrusted to you. And so shall you remove the evil from your midst.
A khuiah pongpa ham na Pathen BOEIPA loh nang n'uen longpuei lamloh nangmih heh hamla, Egypt khohmuen lamloh nangmih aka khuen, sal imkhui lamloh nang aka lat, nangmih kah Pathen BOEIPA taengah koeknah aka thui tah, tonghma khaw, mang aka man khaw, duek saeh. Te dongah boethae te na khui lamloh khoe.
6 If your brother, the son of your mother, or your own son or daughter, or your wife who is in your bosom, or your friend, whom you love like your own soul, were willing to persuade you secretly, saying: ‘Let us go, and serve foreign gods,’ which neither you nor your fathers have known,
Na nu pakhat kah a ca na manuca long khaw, na capa long khaw, na canu long khaw, na rhang dongkah na yuu long khaw, namah hinglu bangla na lungnah na hui mai long khaw yinhnuk ah nang m'vueh tih, “Cet uh sih lamtah namah neh na pa rhoek loh a ming mueh a tloe pathen,
7 gods from any of the surrounding nations, whether these are near or far away, from the beginning even to the end of the earth,
na kaepvai kah pilnam rhoek neh khohla khoyoei, kho bawt lamkah kho bawt patoeng loh a bawk pathen te thothueng uh sih,” a ti mai ni.
8 you should neither agree with him, nor listen to him. And your eye should not spare him so that you take pity on him and conceal him.
Anih taengla bung boel lamtah a ol te hnatun pah boeh. Na mik long khaw anih te rhen boel saeh. Te dongah lungma ti boel lamtah anih te dah boeh.
9 Instead, you shall put him to death promptly. Let your hand be upon him first, and after that, let the hands of all the people be sent forth.
Anih te na ngawn rhoe na ngawn ni. Na kut te anih ngawn ham lamhma kah bangla anih soah om saeh. Hmailong ah pilnam boeih kah a kut khaw om saeh.
10 He shall be killed by being overwhelmed with stones. For he was willing to draw you away from the Lord your God, who led you away from the land of Egypt, from the house of servitude.
Egypt kho neh sal imkhui lamkah nang aka khuen BOEIPA na Pathen taeng lamloh heh hamla nang aka mae te lungto neh dae lamtah duek saeh.
11 So may all of Israel, upon hearing this, be afraid, so that nothing like this will ever be done again.
Te daengah ni Israel pum loh a yaak uh vaengah a rhih uh vetih nangmih taengah hebang hno thae saii hamla a khoep pawt eh.
12 If, in one of your cities which the Lord your God will give to you as a habitation, you hear someone say:
Na khopuei khuikah hlang khat khat loh, “Teah khosak sak ham BOEIPA na Pathen loh nang m'paek coeng,” a ti vaengah,
13 ‘The sons of Belial have departed from your midst, and they have persuaded the inhabitants of their city, and they have said: “Let us go, and serve strange gods,”’ which you have not known:
namah khui lamkah hlang muen ca rhoek neh khopuei kah khosa rhoek aka heh loh thoo uh tih, “Cet uh sih lamtah na ming noek pawh pathen tloe taengah thothueng uh sih,” a ti uh te na yaak atah,
14 inquire carefully and diligently, seeking the truth of the matter. And if you find that what was said is certain, and that this abomination is a work which has been perpetrated,
Na cae vetih na khe ni. Tuektuek na dawt tih na khui ah tueilaehkoi hno a saii te oltak la a om atah,
15 you shall promptly strike down the inhabitants of that city with the edge of the sword. And you shall destroy it, along with all the things that are in it, even the flocks.
Khopuei kah khosa boeih te na ngawn rhoe na ngawn ni. Te te cunghang ha neh thup lamtah a khuikah boeih neh a rhamsa khaw cunghang ha neh thup pah.
16 Then all the household goods which are there, you shall gather together in the midst of its streets, and you shall set fire to these, along with the city itself, so that you may consume everything for the Lord your God, and so that it may be an everlasting tomb. It shall no longer be built up.
A kutbuem boeih te a toltung khui la coi pah lamtah hmai neh hoeh pah. Khopuei neh a kutbuem boeih na BOEIPA Pathen ham boeih saeh. Te vaengah a khopuei te kumhal due imrhong la om saeh lamtah thoh voel boel saeh.
17 And there shall remain nothing of that anathema in your hand, so that the Lord may turn from the wrath of his fury, and may take pity on you, and may multiply you, just as he swore to your fathers,
Yaehtaboeih la aka om boeih tah na kut dongah kap boel saeh. Te daengah ni BOEIPA loh thintoek thinsa khui lamkah mael vetih nang taengah haidamnah a khueh eh. Te vaengah nang n'haidam vetih na pa rhoek taengkah a toemngam vanbangla na ping van ni.
18 when you will heed the voice of the Lord your God, keeping all his precepts, which I am entrusting to you this day, so that you may do what is pleasing in the sight of the Lord your God.”
BOEIPA na Pathen kah ol te na ngai atah tihnin ah kai loh nang kang uen olpaek boeih ngaithuen. BOEIPA na Pathen kah mikhmuh ah a thuem ni saii ham a om.
