< Deuteronomy 14 >
1 Ye are sons of Jehovah your God: ye shall not cut yourselves, nor make any baldness between your eyes for a dead person.
Nangmih tah BOEIPA na Pathen kah koca rhoek ni. Aka duek ham na saa hlap pah boeh. Na mik rhoi laklote lungawng la khueh boeh.
2 For thou art a holy people unto Jehovah thy God, and thee hath Jehovah chosen for a people of possession unto himself, out of all the peoples that are upon the face of the earth.
BOEIPA na Pathen kah pilnam cim la na om uh dongah diklai hman kah pilnam boeih khuiah pilnam lungthen bangla amah hut la om hamni BOEIPAloh nang n'coelh.
3 Thou shalt not eat any abominable thing.
Tueilaehkoi boeih tah ca boeh.
4 These are the beasts which ye shall eat: the ox, the sheep, and the goat;
Rhamsa dongah he vaito, tu dongkah boiva neh maae dongkah boiva,
5 the hart, and the gazelle, and the stag, and the wild goat, and the dishon and the oryx, and the wild sheep.
rhangrhaeh kirhang neh sayuk, sathai, sayaa, cuung neh tlang kah tu te cauh.
6 And every beast that hath cloven hoofs, and the feet quite split open into double hoofs, [and] which cheweth the cud, among the beasts, that ye shall eat.
Khomaeaka rhak rhamsa boeih khuiah khawa khomae rhoi laklo kah a khorhaekaka rhaktih caknaihaka naih rhamsa khuikah te mah cauh.
7 Only these ye shall not eat of those that chew the cud, or of those with hoofs cloven and split open: the camel, and the hare, and the rock-badger; for they chew the cud, but have not cloven hoofs — they shall be unclean unto you;
Tedae canaihaka naih neh khomaeaka rhak tih aka rhek khuiah he he cauh boeh. Kalauk, saveh neh saphih he caknaiha naih daea khomaea rhak pawt dongah nangmih ham rhalawt.
8 and the swine, for it hath cloven hoofs, yet cheweth not the cud — it shall be unclean unto you. Of their flesh shall ye not eat, and their carcase shall ye not touch.
Ok he a khomae rhak dae caknaiha tal dongah nangmih ham rhalawt. A saa te cauh boeh, a rhok te khaw benuh boeh.
9 These shall ye eat of all that are in the waters: whatsoever hath fins and scales shall ye eat;
Tui dongah aka om boeih lamkahna caak uh koi lamtah, a pum dongaha phae neha lip aka om boeih tena caak uh thai.
10 but whatsoever hath not fins and scales ye shall not eat: it shall be unclean unto you.
A pum dongaha phae neha lip aka om pawt boeih tah nangmih ham rhalawt, cauh boeh.
11 All clean birds shall ye eat.
Vaa boeih khuiah aka caih te na caak uh thai.
12 But these are they of which ye shall not eat: the eagle, and the ossifrage, and the sea-eagle,
Tedae atha, langta neh thamuk,
13 and the falcon, and the kite, and the black kite after its kind;
khangkham, maisi, neh valae kah a hui boeih,
14 and every raven after its kind;
vangak boeih neh anih hui boeih,
15 and the female ostrich, and the male ostrich, and the sea-gull, and the hawk after its kind;
tuirhuk, vanu, kirhoeng, khangkhoe, mutlo neh anih hui boeih,
16 the owl, and the ibis and the swan,
thathawt, saelbu, abuu,
17 and the pelican, and the carrion vulture, and the gannet,
khosoek saelbu, tamcu, tuiliim,
18 and the stork, and the heron after its kind, and the hoopoe, and the bat.
bungrho, kaikoi neh anih hui boeih, thongpanai neh pumphak te cauh boeh.
19 And every winged crawling thing shall be unclean unto you; they shall not be eaten.
Vaa bangla aka om rhulcai boeih khaw nangmih ham rhalawt. Te te cauh boeh.
20 All clean fowls shall ye eat.
Aka cuem vaa boeih te tah na caak uh thai.
21 Ye shall eat of no carcase; thou shalt give it unto the stranger that is within thy gates, that he may eat it, or sell it unto a foreigner; for thou art a holy people to Jehovah thy God. Thou shalt not boil a kid in its mother's milk.
Maehrhok boeih ke cauh boeh. Na vongka khuiah aka om yinlai te pae lamtah ca mai saeh. Te pawt atah kholong taeng lam khaw yoi mai. Nang tah BOEIPA na Pathen kah pilnam cim la na om dongah boiva cate a manu suktui dongah thong thil boeh.
22 Thou shalt truly tithe all the increase of thy seed, the produce of the field, year by year.
Kum khat kum khat ah khohmuen lamkah aka thoeng na cangtia vueithaih boeih te parha pakhat la na duen rhoe na duen ni.
23 And thou shalt eat before Jehovah thy God, in the place which he will choose to cause his name to dwell there, the tithe of thy corn, of thy new wine, and of thine oil, and the firstlings of thy herds and of thy flocks; that thou mayest learn to fear Jehovah thy God continually.
Na cangpai, na misur thai, na situi parha pakhat khaw, na saelhung neh na boiva cacuek khaw, a ming phuk thil hama tuek hmuen kah BOEIPA na Pathen kah mikhmuh ahna caak ni. Te daengahni BOEIPA na Pathen te hnin takuemah rhih hamna cang pueng eh.
24 And if the way be too long for thee, so that thou art not able to carry it, because the place is too far from thee, which Jehovah thy God will choose to set his name there, when Jehovah thy God blesseth thee;
Tedae namah taeng lamloh longpuei sen tih amah ming phuk thil ham BOEIPA na Pathenloh a coelh hmuen te namah lamloha hlavak dongah khuen hamla a coeng pawt oeh atah, BOEIPA na Pathen kah yoethen paek te tangka la khueh.
25 then shalt thou give it for money, and bind the money together in thy hand, and go to the place which Jehovah thy God will choose,
Te phoeiah tangkate namah kut dongah yom lamtah BOEIPA na Pathenloh amah hama coelh hmuen la caeh puei.
26 and thou shalt give the money for whatever thy soul desireth, for oxen, or for sheep, or for wine, or for strong drink, or for whatever thy soul asketh of thee; and thou shalt eat there before Jehovah thy God, and thou shalt rejoice, thou, and thy house.
Te vaengah na hingluloh a nai sarhui boeih dongkah ham tangka te hnonah. Saelhung khaw, boiva misur khaw, yu khaw na hinglu neh na hoe boeih te tah BOEIPA na Pathen kah mikhmuh ah ca lamtah namah neh na imkhuikho loh na kohoesakuh.
27 And thou shalt not forsake the Levite that is within thy gates; for he hath no portion nor inheritance with thee.
Na vongka khuikah Levi khaw hnoo boeh. Anih te nang taengah khoyo neh rho a khueh moenih.
28 At the end of three years thou shalt bring forth all the tithe of thine increase the same year, and shalt lay it up within thy gates;
Kum thuma thok kum kah na cangah parha pakhat boeih tena khuen vetih na vongka khuiahna tung ni.
29 and the Levite — for he hath no portion nor inheritance with thee — and the stranger, and the fatherless, and the widow, that are within thy gates, shall come, and shall eat and be satisfied; that Jehovah thy God may bless thee in all the work of thy hand which thou doest.
Na khuiah khaw a taengah khoyo neh rhoaka mueh tah Levi khaw, na vongka khuikah yinlai khaw, cadah neh nuhmai khaw, ha kun mai khaming. Te vaengah ca uh saeh lamtah cung uh saeh. Te daengahni na kut dongkah bitatna saii boeih te na Pathen BOEIPAloh nang yoethen m'paek eh.
