< Deuteronomy 17 >

1 Thou shalt not sacrifice to Jehovah thy God an ox or sheep wherein is a defect, or anything bad; for it is an abomination to Jehovah thy God.
Hno thae he BOEIPA na Pathen kah tueilaehkoi ni. A pum dongaha lolhmaih khat khataka om vaito neh tu te BOEIPA na Pathen taengahna nawn mahpawh.
2 If there be found in thy midst in any of thy gates which Jehovah thy God giveth thee, man or woman, that doeth what is evil in the sight of Jehovah thy God, in transgressing his covenant,
A paipia poe tih BOEIPA na Pathen mikhmuh ah thaeaka saii huta tongpaloh BOEIPA na Pathen kah m'paek na vongka khui boeih kah namah taengaha pongpa te a hmuh bal oeh atah,
3 and goeth and serveth other gods, and boweth down to them, either to the sun or to the moon, or to the whole host of heaven, which I have not commanded;
pathen tloe taengah thothueng ham neh khomik taengah, hla taengah, vaan caempuei khat khat taengahaka bakop ham kang uen moenih.
4 and it be told thee, and thou hearest of it; then thou shalt make thorough inquiry, and if it be truth [and] the thing be certain, that this abomination hath been wrought in Israel,
Nang taengkaha thui te na yaak vaengah tuektuek cae lamtah tueilaehkoi hno he Israel khui lamkah loh a saiite oltaklaa sikim atah,
5 thou shalt bring forth that man or that woman, who committed that wicked thing, unto thy gates, the man or the woman, and shalt stone them with stones, that they die.
huta khaw tongpa khaw rhen khuen. Na vongka khuiah khoboe thaeaka saii tah huta khaw tongpa khaw lungto neh dae lamtah duek uh kangna saeh.
6 At the mouth of two witnesses, or three witnesses, shall he that is to die be put to death: he shall not be put to death at the mouth of one witness.
Aka duek tueng khaw laipai pakhatkaha ka dongkah neh duek tarha pawt vetih laipai panit pathum ka dongkah ol a om daengah ni a duek eh.
7 The hands of the witnesses shall be first upon him to put him to death, and afterwards the hands of all the people; and thou shalt put evil away from thy midst.
Anih duek sak ham vaengah lamhma la laipai rhoek loh kut hlah thil saeh. A hnuk la pilnam pumloh kut hlah saeh lamtah na khui lamkah boethaete hnawt.
8 If there arise a matter too hard for thee in judgment, between blood and blood, between cause and cause, and between stroke and stroke, matters of controversy within thy gates, then shalt thou arise, and go up to the place which Jehovah thy God will choose.
Laitloeknah dongah olkate nang ham rhaisangtih na vongka khuikah tuituknah olkaaom vaengah thii hamla thii, dumlai hamla dumlai, nganboh hamla nganboh van a ti coeng atah thoo lamtah BOEIPA na Pathenloh amah hama coelh nah hmuen la cet.
9 And thou shalt come unto the priests, the Levites, and unto the judge that shall be in those days, and inquire; and they shall declare unto thee the sentence of judgment;
Te phoeiah Levi khosoihrhoek neh amah khohnin kah laitloek la aka om te paan lamtah dawtlet. Te phoeiah nang ham laitloeknah dumlai te han thui uh saeh.
10 and thou shalt do according to the tenor of the word, which they of that place which Jehovah will choose shall declare unto thee; and thou shalt take heed to do according to all that they instruct thee:
BOEIPAkaha coelh nah hmuen ah nang hama thuiuh olka tarhing te tah saii. Te dongah nang n'thuinuet boeih vanbangla saii ham ngaithuen.
11 according to the sentence of the law which they shall declare unto thee, and according to the judgment which they shall tell thee, thou shalt do: thou shalt not decline from the word which they shall declare unto thee, to the right hand, or the left.
Nang ham han thuinuetuh olkhueng neh nang taengah han thuiuh laitloeknaha tarhing ah saii lamtah nang hamlaa thuiuh olka te khaw banvoei bantang la phaelh boeh.
12 And the man that shall act presumptuously, and not hearken unto the priest that standeth to serve there before Jehovah thy God, or unto the judge, that man shall die; and thou shalt put away evil from Israel.
Hlang he althanah nehaka saii, na Pathen BOEIPA taengah thotat ham neh laitloek hamaka pai khosoih ol aka hnatun pawt tah, te hlangte duek saeh lamtah Israel lamkah boethaete khoepah.
13 And all the people shall hear, and fear, and no more act presumptuously.
Te daengahni pilnam boeihloh a yaakuh vaengaha rhihuh vetih koepa lokhakuh pawt eh.
14 When thou comest unto the land which Jehovah thy God giveth thee, and shalt possess it, and shalt dwell therein, and shalt say, I will set a king over me, like all the nations that are about me;
BOEIPA na Pathenloh nang m'paek khohmuen tena kun tihna pang phoeikah kho na sak vaengah, “Ka kaepvai kah namtom rhoek bangla kamah soah manghai ka khueh van ni,” na ti oeh atah,
15 thou shalt only set him king over thee whom Jehovah thy God will choose: from among thy brethren shalt thou set a king over thee; thou mayest not set a foreigner over thee, who is not thy brother.
BOEIPA na Pathenkaha coelh na manuca khui kah te tah namah soah manghai la na khueh rhoe la na khueh ni. Namah sokahaka manghai la hlang na tuek vaengah kholong hlang tah namah soahna khueh ham coeng thai mahpawh. Anih te na manuca moenih.
16 Only he shall not multiply horses to himself, nor lead back the people to Egypt, to multiply horses; for Jehovah hath said unto you, Ye shall not return again any more that way.
Tekah manghai loh marhang khaw amah ham ping sak boel saeh. Marhangaka ping sak ham khaw pilnam te Egypt lana balkhong sak mahpawh. Te dongahni BOEIPAloh nang taegah, “Tekah longpuei ah koep balkhong hamna khoep mahpawh,” a ti tih a thui.
17 Neither shall he multiply wives to himself, that his heart turn not away; neither shall he greatly multiply to himself silver and gold.
A yuu khaw yet boel saehlamtah a thinko phaelh boel saeh. Tangka neh sui khaw amah ham muep kuk boel saeh.
18 And it shall be, when he sitteth upon the throne of his kingdom, that he shall write for himself a copy of this law in a book out of that which is before the priests, the Levites;
A ram kah ngolkhoel dongah ngol ham a om vaengah Levi khosoihrhoek taengkah cabu dongah aka om olkhueng te cabu a toeng dongah amah ham koep daek saeh.
19 and it shall be with him, and he shall read therein all the days of his life; that he may learn to fear Jehovah his God, to keep all the words of this law and these statutes, to do them;
Te phoeiah cabu te amah taengah om saeh lamtah a hing tuekhui boeihah amah ham tae saeh. Te daengahni BOEIPA a Pathena rhih khaw, olkhueng olka boeiha ngaithuen ham neh herhoek kah oltlueha vai ham khaw a cang eh.
20 that his heart be not lifted up above his brethren, and that he turn not aside from the commandment, to the right hand, or to the left; that he may prolong his days in his kingdom, he, and his sons, in the midst of Israel.
A manuca te a thin pom thil boel saeh lamtah olpaek te banvoei bantang la phaelh boel saeh. Te daengahni Israel lakli kah amah ram ah amah neh a ca rhoek loh a hinglunga vang eh.
