< Deuteronomy 25 >

1 If there be a controversy between men, and they resort to judgment, and they judge [their case]; then they shall justify the righteous, and condemn the wicked.
Tami reira kâyue pawiteh, lawkcengim vah a cei awh vaiteh, lawkcengkung ni ahnimanaw hah lawk a ceng han. Kalan e tami hah yon hloutsak nahanelah thoseh, ka yon e teh sungsak nahanelah thoseh lawk na ceng han.
2 And it shall be if the wicked man have deserved to be beaten, that the judge shall cause him to lie down, and be beaten before his face, according to the measure of his wickedness with a certain number [of stripes].
Ka yon e hah hem kamcu pawiteh, lawkcengkung ni a hmalah ao sak vaiteh, a yon hoi kamcu lah nâyittouh tie hoi a hem han.
3 With forty [stripes] shall they beat him; they shall not exceed, lest, if they continue to beat him with many stripes above these, thy brother become despicable in thine eyes.
Hatei, avai 40 hlak kapap lah na hem mahoeh. Hot hlak kapap lah na hem pawiteh, na hmaunawngha teh na hmalah yeirai a phu han doeh.
4 Thou shalt not muzzle the ox when he treadeth out [the corn].
Cangkatin lahun e maito hah a pahni moum pouh hanh.
5 If brethren dwell together, and one of them die, and have no son, the wife of the dead shall not marry a stranger abroad: her husband's brother shall go in unto her, and take her to him as wife, and perform the duty of a husband's brother unto her.
Reirei kaawm e hmaunawnghanaw thung dawkvah, buetbuet touh ni ca sak laipalah dout pawiteh, hote napui teh alouke tamikathan hoi kâyuva mahoeh. A vâ e nawngha ni a paluen vaiteh, a yu lah awm khai naseh.
6 And it shall be, that the firstborn that she beareth shall stand in the name of his brother who is dead, that his name be not blotted out from Israel.
Isarel miphun dawk hmau min a kahma hoeh nahanelah, camin teh, kadout e na pa kacue e min a phu han.
7 But if the man like not to take his brother's wife, his brother's wife shall go up to the gate unto the elders, and say, My husband's brother refuseth to raise up unto his brother a name in Israel: he will not perform for me the duty of a husband's brother.
A nawngha ni a hmau e yu hah la hane ngai hoehpawiteh, napui ni kacuenaw onae koe, kho longkha koe a cei vaiteh, ka vâ e nawngha ni, a hmau e min hah Isarel miphun thung caksak hanelah ngai hoeh. A sak hane kawi hai sak hane ngai hoeh telah dei pawiteh,
8 Then the elders of his city shall call him and speak unto him; and if he stand to it and say, I like not to take her;
khothung vah kacuenaw ni ahni hah a kaw awh vaiteh, a pacei awh han. Ahni ni hai hote napui hah ka lat ngai hoeh telah muentakuen lah awm pawiteh,
9 then shall his brother's wife come near to him before the eyes of the elders, and draw his sandal from his foot, and spit in his face, and shall answer and say, So shall it be done unto the man that will not build up his brother's house.
a hmau e yu ni kacuenaw e hmalah, ahni koe rek a cei vaiteh, ahnie khokkhawm hah a rading pouh vaiteh, a minhmai dawk a tamthawi pouh vaiteh, hmau e im kangdue sak hanlah ka ngai e tami koe hettelah ti hanelah ao telah a dei pouh awh han.
10 And his name shall be called in Israel, The house of him that hath his shoe drawn off.
A hnukkhu vah, ahni hah khokkhawm rading e miphun telah kaw lah ao han.
11 When men fight together one with another, and the wife of the one come near to rescue her husband out of the hand of him that smiteth him, and stretch out her hand, and seize him by his secret parts,
Tami reira a kâyue awh navah, buet touh e a yu ni amae vâ kabawp han a ngai dawkvah, alouke tongpa e minro hah sawn pouh boipawiteh,
12 thou shalt cut off her hand; thine eye shall not spare.
hote napui e kut hah tâtueng pouh han. Na pahren mahoeh.
13 Thou shalt not have in thy bag divers weights, a great and a small.
Na yawngya dawk kalen e khinglung, kathounge khinglung tie kâvan hoeh e khinglung na awm sak mahoeh.
14 Thou shalt not have in thy house divers ephahs, a great and a small.
Nama im vah khingnae kalen kathoung na awm sak mahoeh.
15 A perfect and just weight shalt thou have; a perfect and just ephah shalt thou have; that thy days may be prolonged in the land that Jehovah thy God giveth thee.
Na BAWIPA Cathut ni na poe e ram dawk na hringyung a vang nahanelah, kahman e khinglung, kahman e yawcu dueng hah na hno han.
16 For every one that doeth such things, every one that doeth unrighteousness, is an abomination to Jehovah thy God.
Dei tangcoung e hno ka sak e tami pueng hoi kamsoum hoeh lah ka sak tami pueng teh, nange BAWIPA Cathut ni a panuet.
17 Remember what Amalek did unto thee on the way, when ye came forth out of Egypt;
Nang teh Izip ram hoi na tâco teh kahlawng na cei toteh,
18 how he met thee on the way, and smote the hindmost of thee, all the feeble that lagged behind thee, when thou wast faint and weary, and he feared not God.
na tha a baw teh na tawn lahun nah, na hnukkâbangnaw, a thakayounnaw hah Amaleknaw ni lamthung dawkvah a thei awh e hai thoseh, Cathut hah a taki awh hoeh e hai thoseh, pouk la a.
19 And it shall be, when Jehovah thy God shall have given thee rest from all thine enemies round about, in the land that Jehovah thy God giveth thee for an inheritance to possess it, that thou shalt blot out the remembrance of Amalek from under the heavens; thou shalt not forget it.
Hatdawkvah, BAWIPA Cathut ni râw lah na poe e ram dawk, na tengpam kaawm e taran pueng e kut dawk hoi na hlout sak teh yawhawi na poe toteh, Amaleknaw heh pouknae ao hoeh nahanelah, kalvan rahim vah na raphoe awh han. Hot hah na pahnim mahoeh.
