Deuteronomy 23
1 “A eunuch, one whose testicles have been debilitated or cut off, or whose penis has been cut off, shall not enter into the church of the Lord.
Tuenla hoehpawiteh, tongpa e puengcang tâtueng lah kaawm e teh BAWIPA e tamihu dawk kâen mahoeh.
2 The offspring of a harlot, that is, one born of a prostitute, shall not enter into the church of the Lord, until the tenth generation.
Cataca teh, BAWIPA e tamihu dawk kâen mahoeh. Se hra totouh kâen mahoeh.
3 The Ammonite and the Moabite, even after the tenth generation, shall not enter into the church of the Lord forever,
Amon miphun hoi Moab miphun hai BAWIPA e tamihu dawk kâen mahoeh. Se hra totouh kâen mahoeh.
4 because they were not willing to meet you with bread and water along the way, when you had departed from Egypt, and because they hired against you Balaam, the son of Beor, from Mesopotamia in Syria, in order to curse you.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, nangmouh ni Izip ram hoi na tâco awh navah, ahnimouh ni vaiyei hoi tui a sin awh teh na dawn awh hoeh. Nangmouh thoebo sak hanelah, Mesopotamia ram, Pethor kho e Beor capa Balaam hah a hlai awh.
5 But the Lord your God was not willing to listen to Balaam, and he turned his cursing into your blessing, because he loves you.
Hatei, nange BAWIPA Cathut ni Balaam e lawk tarawi pouh hoeh. Nang na pahren dawkvah, thoebonae hah yawhawinae lah a kâthungsak.
6 You shall not make peace with them, nor shall you seek their prosperity, throughout all the days of your life forever.
Nang teh ahnimae bawirengnae hoi a hnopai na hringyung thung na khen mahoeh.
7 You shall not abhor anyone from Idumea, for he is your brother, nor the Egyptian, for you were a new arrival in his land.
Edom miphunnaw hah, na pahnawt awh mahoeh. Ahni teh nange hmaunawngha lah ao. Izipnaw hai na pahnawt mahoeh. Ahnimae ram dawk san lah ouk na o boi toe.
8 Those who have been born of them, in the third generation, shall enter into the church of the Lord.
Ahnimae catoun teh se thum touh hnukkhu BAWIPA e tamihu dawk a kâen thainae kâ ao.
9 When you have gone out to war against your enemies, you shall keep yourself from everything that is evil.
Taran tuknae koe na kamthaw nah, kamsoumhoehe hno pueng rounh.
10 If there is a man among you who has been defiled by a dream in the night, he shall depart from the camp.
Nangmouh thung dawk tami bangpatet hai amae a tâco dawk thounghoehnae awm pawiteh, roenae alawilah a tâco han. Roenae thung kâen mahoeh.
11 And he shall not return before the evening, after he has washed with water, and then, after the sun sets, he shall return to the camp.
Tangminlasa a pha toteh tui hoi a pâsu han. Kanî a khup torei roenae thung bout a kâen han.
12 You shall have a place beyond the camp to which you may go for the necessities of nature,
Vaipuen ceinae teh roenae alawilah na ta awh han. Hote hmuen koe alawilah na cei awh han.
13 carrying a small shovel at your belt. And when you would sit down, you shall dig around, and then, with the soil that was dug up, you shall cover
Na hnopainaw dawk sumtaboung na tawn han. Nang ni a alawilah na tahung toteh, hot hoi tangkawm na tai vaiteh, na kamlang sin vaiteh, na vaipuen hah na pakawp han.
14 that from which you were relieved. For the Lord your God walks in the midst of your camp, in order to rescue you, and to deliver your enemies to you. And so, let your camp be holy, and let nothing filthy appear within it, lest he abandon you.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, nange BAWIPA Cathut ni nang hah na rungngang vaiteh, na tarannaw hah nang koe na poe nahanelah, roenae thung a kâhlai toe. Hatdawkvah, BAWIPA teh nang koe a tho navah, nangmouh koe kathounghoehe hah hmawt vaiteh, nangmouh koehoi a kamlang hoeh nahanelah, roenae teh a thoung han.
15 You shall not deliver a servant who has fled to you to his master.
A bawipa koehoi ka yawng niteh, nang koe ka tho e san teh a bawipa koe na ban sak mahoeh.
16 He shall live with you in a place that pleases him, and he shall rest in one of your cities. You shall not grieve him.
Nangmouh koe kho a sak thai nahan a ngai poung e hmuen a rawi vaiteh, ao van han. Na pacekpahlek mahoeh.
17 There shall be no prostitutes among the daughters of Israel, nor anyone among the sons of Israel who visits a prostitute.
Isarel napuinaw thung takkâyawt e awm hanh naseh. Napuitongpanaw awm hanh naseh.
18 You shall not offer money from a prostitute, nor the price of a dog, in the house of the Lord your God, no matter what you may have vowed. For both of these are an abomination with the Lord your God.
Takkâyonae phu hoi ui phu hah na BAWIPA Cathut e im dawk poe hanelah na sin mahoeh. Hot patetlah e hno teh, na BAWIPA Cathut hanelah panuettho e lah ao.
19 You shall not lend money, or grain, or anything else at all, to your brother at interest,
Na hmaunawngha koe apung la hanelah, tangka, rawca, apung la thai e hnopai pueng na cawi mahoeh.
20 but only to a foreigner. For you shall lend to your brother whatever he needs without interest, so that the Lord your God may bless you in all your works in the land, which you shall enter so as to possess it.
Jentelnaw koe apung la hanelah na cawi sak awh han. Na cei awh teh na coe awh hane ram, na BAWIPA Cathut ni yawhawi na poe awh nahanelah, na hmaunawngha koe apung la hanelah na cawi sak awh mahoeh.
21 When you have made a vow to the Lord your God, you shall not be late in paying it. For the Lord your God demands it. And if you delay, it shall be imputed to you as a sin.
Nange BAWIPA Cathut koe lawk na kam pawiteh, na kam e patetlah sak laipalah awm hanh. Nange BAWIPA Cathut ni atangcalah, a hei han. Na sak laipalah na awm pawiteh, nang koe a yonae a pha han.
22 If you are not willing to make a promise, then it shall be without sin.
Hatei, lawk na kam hoehpawiteh, yon mahoeh.
23 But as soon as it has departed from your lips, you shall observe and do just as you have promised to the Lord your God and just as you have spoken by your own free will and with your own mouth.
Na pahni dawk hoi ka tâcawt e lawk hah na kâhruetcuet han. Na BAWIPA Cathut koe nama lungtho lahoi na kam e patetlah na sak han.
24 Upon entering your neighbor’s vineyard, you may eat as many grapes as you please. But you may not carry any out with you.
Nang teh, na imri e misur takha koe na kâen navah, misur paw na ngai totouh na ca han, hatei, na yawngya dawk hoi na phawt pouh mahoeh.
25 If you enter into your friend’s grain field, you may break off the ears, and rub them in your hand, but you may not reap them with a sickle.”
Na imri e laikawk na cei navah, na kut hoi cavui hah na pahroe thai. Hatei, na imri e cavui hah tangkoun hoi na ca mahoeh.
