Exodus 23
1 Thou shalt not accept a false report; extend not thy hand to the wicked, to be an unrighteous witness.
A poeyoek kah olthang khuen boeh. Kuthlahnah kah laipai la om ham halang neh na kut hlaengtang boeh.
2 Thou shalt not follow the multitude for evil; neither shalt thou answer in a cause, to go after the multitude to pervert [judgment].
Boethae dongah tah hlangping hnuk khaw om boeh. Kaengyai taengah hlangping neh kaengyai ham tuituknah dongah doo boeh.
3 Neither shalt thou favour a poor man in his cause.
Tattloel long khaw a tuituknah dongah n'hiin boel saeh.
4 — If thou meet thine enemy's ox or his ass going astray, thou shalt certainly bring it back to him.
Na thunkha kah vaito khaw, a laak khaw a kho a hmaang te na hmuh atah amah taengla mael rhoe mael puei.
5 If thou see the ass of him that hateth thee lying under its burden, beware of leaving [it] to him: thou shalt certainly loosen [it] with him.
A taengahna tlo-oeng la na tlo-oeng mai cakhaw na lunguet kah laakte a hnorhih dangaha kol te na hmuh atah anih taengahna tlo-oenng te khaw toeng laeh.
6 Thou shalt not pervert the judgment of thy poor in his cause.
Na taengkah khodaengte a tuituknah dongaha laitloeknah phaelh pah boeh.
7 Thou shalt keep far from the cause of falsehood; and the innocent and righteous slay not; for I will not justify the wicked.
A honghi olka lamloh lakhla lamtah halang he ka tang sak pawt dongah ommongsitoe neh aka dueng khaw ngawn boeh.
8 And thou shalt take no bribe; for the bribe blindeth those whose eyes are open, and perverteth the words of the righteous.
Kapbaih khaw lo boeh, kapbaih loh miktueng khaw a dael sak tiha dueng ol khaw a paimaelh.
9 And the stranger thou shalt not oppress; for ye know the spirit of the stranger, for ye have been strangers in the land of Egypt.
Yinlai khaw nen boeh, Egypt kho ah yinlai la na om van dongah yinlai kah hinglu te namah dongah ming puei.
10 And six years thou shalt sow thy land, and gather in its produce;
Na khohmuen te kum rhuk tawn lamtah a vueithaih khaw coi.
11 but in the seventh thou shalt let it rest and lie [fallow], that the poor of thy people may eat [of it]; and what they leave, the beasts of the field shall eat. In like manner thou shalt deal with thy vineyard, and with thine olive-tree.
Tedae a kum rhihte hmil lamtah haai sak. Te daengah ni na pilnam khodaengloh a caak vetih a noite khohmuen mulhingloh a caak. Na misurdum ham na olive ham khaw tete saii.
12 — Six days thou shalt do thy work, but on the seventh day thou shalt rest; that thine ox and thine ass may rest, and the son of thy handmaid, and the stranger may be refreshed.
Hnin rhuk khuiah na bibite saii lamtaha rhih hnin ah duem dae. Na vaito neh na laak khaw duem vetih na salnu kah a ca neh yinlai khaw a thasai ni.
13 And ye shall be on your guard as to everything that I have said unto you; and shall make no mention of the name of other gods — it shall not be heard in thy mouth.
Nangmih taengaha cungkuem la ka thui te ngaithuen uh. Pathen tloerhoek ming khaw phoei uh boeh, Na ka dongah ya uh boel saeh.
14 Thrice in the year thou shalt celebrate a feast to me.
Kum khat ah kai ham khotue voei thum lam uh.
15 Thou shalt keep the feast of unleavened bread, (thou shalt eat unleavened bread seven days, as I have commanded thee, in the time appointed of the month Abib; for in it thou camest out from Egypt; and none shall appear in my presence empty; )
Nang kan uen bangla vaidamding khotue te tuem uh lamtah hnin rhih khuiah vaidamding ca uh. Egypt lamlohna hlah uh vaengkah Abib hlate khoning la om vetih ka mikhmuhah kuttling la ha phoe boel saeh.
16 and the feast of harvest, the first-fruits of thy labours which thou hast sown in the field, and the feast of in-gathering, at the end of the year, when thou gatherest in thy labours out of the field.
Khohmuenna tawn te na bibi dongkah thaihcuek, cangah khotue neh kum boeih kah khohmuen lamloh na bibi na khoem vaengah cangyom khotue om ni.
17 Three times in the year all thy males shall appear in the presence of the Lord Jehovah.
Na khuikah tongpaca boeih tah kum khat ah voei thum Boeipa Yahovah mikhmuh ah phoe saeh.
18 Thou shalt not offer the blood of my sacrifice with leavened bread; neither shall the fat of my feast remain all night until the morning.
Kai kah hmueih thiite tolrhu neh nawn boeh. Ka khotue kah maehtha khaw mincang duela rhaeh boel saeh.
19 The first of the first-fruits of thy land thou shalt bring into the house of Jehovah thy God. Thou shalt not boil a kid in its mother's milk.
Na khohmuen kah thaihcuek tangluete na BOEIPA Pathen kah im la khuen. Ma-ae cate a manu suktui neh thong boeh.
20 Behold, I send an Angel before thee, to keep thee in the way, and to bring thee to the place that I have prepared.
Longpuei ah nang aka ngaithuen ham neh ka hmoel hmuen hil nang aka khuen ham na mikhmuh ah puencawn kan tueih coeng ne.
21 Be careful in his presence, and hearken unto his voice: do not provoke him, for he will not forgive your transgressions; for my name is in him.
A mikhmuh ah ngaithuen lamtah a ol te hnatun. Anih te veet boeh, kai ming he a khui ah om coeng tih nangmih kah boekoeknah te duen mahpawh.
22 But if thou shalt diligently hearken unto his voice, and do all that I shall say, then I will be an enemy to thine enemies, and an adversary to thine adversaries.
A ol tena hnatun rhoela na hnatun tih ka thui te boeihna ngai atah na thunkha te ka thunkhanah vetih nang aka daengdaeh te ka dum van ni.
23 For mine Angel shall go before thee, and bring thee in unto the Amorites and the Hittites and the Perizzites and the Canaanites, the Hivites and the Jebusites; and I will cut them off.
Ka puencawn he nang hmai ah pongpa vetih nangte Amori neh Khitti taengla, Perizzi neh Kanaan taengla, Khivee neh Jebusi taengla n'thak vetih amih te ka thup ni.
24 Thou shalt not bow down to their gods, nor serve them, nor do after their deeds; but thou shalt utterly destroy them, and utterly shatter their statues.
Amih kah pathen taengah bakop boel lamtah amih taengah thothueng boeh. Amih kah khoboe bangla saii boeh. Te rhoek te koengloeng rhoe koengloeng lamtah a kaamte phaek la phaek pah.
25 And ye shall serve Jehovah your God; and he shall bless thy bread and thy water; and I will take sickness away from thy midst.
BOEIPA na Pathen taengah tho na thueng daengah ni na buh neh na tui khaw a yoethen vetih na khui lamkah tlohtat te kang khoe eh.
26 There shall nothing cast their young, nor be barren, in thy land; the number of thy days will I fulfil.
Na khohmuen ah thangyah neh caya khaw om pawt vetih na khohnin kah a tarhing te ka cup sak ni.
27 I will send my fear before thee, and confound every people to which thou comest, and will make all thine enemies turn their back to thee.
Kai taengkah mueirhih te na hmai ah ka tueih vetih a taengla na thoeng thil pilnam boeih te ka khawkkhek ni. Na thunkha boeih te nang taengaha rhawn ka duen sak.
28 And I will send hornets before thee, which shall drive out the Hivite, the Canaanite, and the Hittite, from before thee.
Nang mikhmuh ah khoingal te ka tueih vetih Khivee, Kanaan neh Khitti te na mikhmuh lamloh ka haek ni.
29 I will not drive them out from before thee in one year: lest the land become desolate, and the beast of the field multiply against thee.
Kum khat nen tah na mikhmuh lamloh anih te ka haek mahpawh. Khohmuente khopong la om vetih na taengah kohong mulhing pung aih ve.
30 By little and little I will drive them out from before thee, until thou art fruitful, and possess the land.
Na pungtai hil na mikhmuh lamloh bet bet ka haek daengah ni khohmuen tena pang eh.
31 And I will set thy bounds from the Red Sea even unto the sea of the Philistines, and from the wilderness unto the river; for I will give the inhabitants of the land into your hand, that thou mayest dispossess them from before thee.
Na khorhi te carhaek tuipuei lamloh Philisti tuipuei duela, khosoek lamloh tuiva duela kan suem bitni. Khohmuen kah khosarhoek te na kut ah kam paek vetih amihte na mikhmuh lamloh ka haek ni.
32 Thou shalt make no covenant with them, nor with their gods.
Amih taeng neh amih kah pathen taengah paipi saii boeh.
33 They shall not dwell in thy land, lest they make thee sin against me; for if thou serve their gods, it is sure to be a snare unto thee.
Na khohmuen ah khosa uh boel saeh, kai taengah na tholh ve. A pathen taengah tho na thueng atah na taengah hlaeh la poeh van ni.
