< Deuteronomy 12 >

1 These are the precepts and judgments, that you must do in the land, which the Lord the God of thy fathers will give thee, to possess it all the days that thou shalt walk upon the earth.
Nangmouh ni talai dawk na hring nathung na coe awh nahanelah, na mintoenaw ni a bawk awh e BAWIPA Cathut ni na poe e ram dawk na tarawi awh hane phunglawknaw hoi lawkcengnae hateh,
2 Destroy all the places in which the nations, that you shall possess, worshipped their gods upon high mountains, and hills, and under every shady tree:
nangmouh ni na uk awh e miphunnaw ni, bawknae monnaw, monruinaw dawk e thingkungnaw rahim kaawm e cathutnaw hai thoseh, bawknae hmuen puenghai thoseh koung na raphoe pouh awh han.
3 Overthrow their altars, and break down their statues, burn their groves with fire, and break their idols in pieces: destroy their names out of those places.
Ahnimae thuengnae khoungroenaw hai na raphoe pouh han. Meikaphawknaw hai na raphoe pouh han. Asherimnaw hai hmai hoi na sawi pouh han. Ahnimae cathut kutsaknaw hah na tâtueng awh han. Hote hmuen dawk hote cathut min na raphoe awh han.
4 You shall not do so to the Lord your God:
Hot patet lae hnonaw hno lahoi BAWIPA Cathut na bawk awh mahoeh.
5 But you shall come to the place, which the Lord your God shall choose out of all your tribes, to put his name there, and to dwell in it:
Hateiteh, BAWIPA Cathut ni na miphun thung hoi a min ao nahanelah, a rawi e hmuen hah na tawng awh vaiteh hote hmuen koe na cei awh han.
6 And you shall offer in that place your holocausts and victims, the tithes and firstfruits of your hands and your vows and gifts, the firstborn of your herds and your sheep.
Hote hmuen koe nangmouh ni hmaisawi thuengnae naw hoi pung hra pung touh thueng e hno, kahek e hno lawkkamnae hoi kâkuen e thueng e hno, mahmawk sak e thueng e hno hoi maito, hmaloe ka khe e tunaw hah na thokhai awh han.
7 And you shall eat there in the sight of the Lord your God: and you shall rejoice in all things, whereunto you shall put your hand, you and your houses wherein the Lord your God hath blessed you.
Hote hmuen koe nangmae BAWIPA Cathut hmalah na ca awh han. Na sak nah tangkuem dawk nangmae BAWIPA Cathut ni yawhawi na poe dawkvah, nangmouh teh, nama hoi na imthungnaw, na kut hoi na tawk e naw pueng dawkvah na lunghawi han.
8 You shall not do there the things we do here this day, every man that which seemeth good to himself.
Atu e tueng, hete hmuen koe na sak e patetlah hote hmuen koe tami pueng ma pouknae rumram hoi na sak awh mahoeh.
9 For until this present time you are not come to refit, and to the possession, which the Lord your God will give you.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, nangmouh teh, kâhatnae ram dawk thoseh, nangmae BAWIPA Cathut ni râw lah na poe e ram dawk thoseh, na kâen awh hoeh rah.
10 You shall pass over the Jordan, and shall dwell in the land which the Lord your God will give you, that you may have rest from all enemies round about: and may dwell without any fear,
Nangmouh teh Jordan palang na raka awh toteh, na coe awh hane nangmae BAWIPA Cathut ni râw lah na poe e ram dawk na o awh vaiteh, tarannaw e kut dawk hoi nangmouh na rungngang teh karoumcalah na o awh han.
11 In the place, which the Lord your God shall choose, that his name may be therein. Thither shall you bring all the things that I command you, holocausts, and victims, and tithes, and the firstfruits of your hands: and whatsoever is the choicest in the gifts which you shall vow to the Lord.
A min ao nahanelah, nangmae BAWIPA Cathut ni a rawi e hmuen haw vah ao han. Hote hmuen koe kai ni lawk na thui e patetlah nangmae hmaisawi thuengnae, satheinaw, pung hra pung touh, na kut hoi na sak e hnonaw, BAWIPA koe lawk na kam e patetlah lawkkam e naw pueng hah na thokhai awh han.
12 There shall you feast before the Lord your God, you and your sons and your daughters, your menservants and maid-servants, and the Levite that dwelleth in your cities. For he hath no other part and possession among you.
Namamouh hoi nangmae capanaw, canunaw, sanpanaw, sannunaw, râw pang hane ao hoeh dawkvah, nangmae longkha thung kaawm e Levihnaw hoi cungtalah nangmae BAWIPA Cathut hmalah na lunghawi awh han.
13 Beware lest thou offer thy holocausts in every place that thou shalt see:
Nangmouh teh, na hmu awh e hmuen pueng dawk hmaisawi thuengnae na sak awh hoeh nahanelah, na kâhruetcuet awh han.
14 But in the place which the Lord shall choose in one of thy tribes shalt thou offer sacrifices. and shalt do all that I command thee.
Hatei, nange miphun thung dawk hoi phun touh koe kaawm e BAWIPA ni a rawi e hmuen dawkvah hmaisawi thuengnae hah na sak han. Hote hmuen koevah, kai ni lawk na thui e naw pueng hah na sak awh han.
15 But if thou desirest to eat, and the eating of flesh delight thee, kill, and eat according to the blessing of the Lord thy God, which he hath given thee, in thy cities: whether it be unclean, that is to say, having blemish or defect: or clean, that is to say, sound and without blemish, such as may be offered, as the roe, and the hart, shalt thou eat it:
Hatnavah, BAWIPA Cathut ni yawhawi na poe e patetlah na onae kho tangkuem kaawm e na ca ngai e pueng na thei vaiteh longkha ca thainae kâ na tawn awh. Kathounge hoi kathounghoehe ni hai sayuk sakhi patetlah hote moi hah a ca thai.
16 Only the blood thou shalt not eat, but thou shalt pour it out upon the earth as water.
Hatnavah, a thi na cat awh mahoeh. Tui rabawk e patetlah talai dawk na rabawk awh han.
17 Thou mayst not eat in thy towns the tithes of thy corn, and thy wine, and thy oil, the firstborn of thy herds and thy cattle, nor any thing that thou vowest, and that thou wilt offer voluntarily, and the firstfruits of thy hands:
Na kho thung kaawm e nange cakang, nange misurtui, nange satui, nange maito, nange tu camin, lawk na kam e nange lawkkam abuemlah, na mahmawk na poe hno, na kut hoi na sak e hno pung hra pung touh hah na cat mahoeh.
18 But thou shalt eat them before the Lord thy God in the place which the Lord thy God shall choose, thou and thy son and thy daughter, and thy manservant, and maidservant, and the Levite that dwelleth in thy cities: and thou shalt rejoice and be refreshed before the Lord thy God in all things, whereunto thou shalt put thy hand.
Hatei, nama hoi cungtalah, nange capa, nange canu, nange sanpa, nange sannu, nange longkha thung kaawm e Levihnaw ni nangmae BAWIPA Cathut ma ni a rawi e hmuen koe nangmae BAWIPA Cathut e hmalah na ca awh han.
19 Take heed thou forsake not the Levite all the time that thou livest in the land.
Na ram thung na o awh roukrak, Levih miphunnaw na pahnim awh hoeh nahanelah kâhruetcuet awh.
20 When the Lord thy God shall have enlarged thy borders, as he hath spoken to thee, and thou wilt eat the flesh that thy soul desireth:
Nange BAWIPA Cathut ni nang hanelah lawkkam e patetlah na ram ramri a kaw sak toteh, nang ni moi ka cat haw nei telah na ti vaiteh, na lungthin ni moi ca hane a ngai dawkvah, nang ni na lungngai e patetlah moi na ca han.
21 And if the place which the Lord thy God shall choose, that his name should be there, be far off, thou shalt kill of thy herds and of thy flocks, as I have commanded thee, and shalt eat in thy towns, as it pleaseth thee.
Nangmae BAWIPA Cathut ni a min ao nahanelah na rawi pouh e hmuen teh, nang hoi hlatpoung pawiteh, nang koe ka dei e patetlah BAWIPA ni na poe e maito hoi tu hah na thei vaiteh, na longkha thungvah na lungngai patetlah na ca thai.
22 Even as the roe and the hart is eaten, so shalt thou eat them: both the clean and unclean shall eat of them alike.
Sayuk sakhi moi na ca e patetlah hote moi hah na ca thai. Kathounge hoi kathounghoehe ni hai hote moi hah reirei a ca thai.
23 Only beware of this, that thou eat not the blood, for the blood is for the soul: and therefore thou must not eat the soul with the flesh:
A thi na ca awh hoeh nahanelah kâhruetcuet sak awh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, thi teh hringnae doeh. Hringnae hoi a moi reirei na cat mahoeh.
24 But thou shalt pour it upon the earth as water,
Na cat awh roeroe mahoeh. Tui rabawk e patetlah talai dawk na rabawk han.
25 That it may be well with thee and thy children after thee, when thou shalt do that which is pleasing in the sight of the Lord.
Nang teh BAWIPA e hmalah kalan e hno hah na sak dawkvah, nang hoi cungtalah, na catounnaw hawinae na coe awh nahan, a thi hah na cat awh mahoeh.
26 But the things which thou hast sanctified and vowed to the Lord, thou shalt take, and shalt come to the place which the Lord shall choose:
Nang dawk kaawm e kathounge hnonaw hoi nange lawkkamnaw dueng hah na sin vaiteh, BAWIPA ni a rawi e hmuen koe na cet awh.
27 And shalt offer thy oblations the flesh and the blood upon the altar of the Lord thy God: the blood of thy victims thou shalt pour on the altar: and the flesh thou thyself shalt eat.
A moi hoi a thi na kalawt vaiteh, nange BAWIPA Cathut e hmaisawi thuengnae khoungroe van na thueng han. Sathei e a thi hah nange BAWIPA Cathut e thuengnae khoungroe van na awi vaiteh, a moi hah na ca han.
28 Observe and hear all the things that I command thee, that it may be well with thee and thy children after thee for ever, when thou shalt do what is good and pleasing in the sight of the Lord thy God.
Nange BAWIPA Cathut hmalah kahawi ni teh kalan e hno na sak dawkvah, nang hoi na catounnaw hoi cungtalah, hawinae pou na coe awh nahan, nang koe kâ na poe e hete lawknaw hah na tarawi nahanelah kâhruetcuet loe.
29 When the Lord thy God shall have destroyed before thy face the nations, which then shalt go in to possess, and when thou shalt possess them, and dwell in their land:
Na cei vaiteh na coe hane ram dawk kaawm e miphunnaw hah, nange BAWIPA Cathut ni na hmalah a raphoe toteh, nang ni ahnimanaw hah na pâlei vaiteh, ahnimae ram dawk kho na sak han.
30 Beware lest thou imitate them, after they are destroyed at thy coming in, and lest thou seek after their ceremonies, saying: As these nations have worshipped their gods, so will I also worship.
Na hmalah ahnimouh a rawk awh hnukkhu, ahnimouh ni a sak awh e patetlah na sak awh teh na yon awh hoeh nahanelah, hete miphunnaw ni amamae cathut hah bangtelamaw a bawk awh, kai hai hottelah ka bawk van han telah dei teh, ahnimae cathut kong pacei hoeh nahanelah mahoima kâhruetcuet loe.
31 Thou shalt not do in like manner to the Lord thy God. For they have done to their gods all the abominations which the Lord abhorreth, offering their sons and daughters, and burning them with fire.
Ahnimouh ni a sak awh e patetlah na BAWIPA Cathut koe na sak awh mahoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA Cathut ni a ngaihoeh e panuettho e hno hah amamae cathut koe a sak awh teh, amamae capanaw hoi canunaw patenghai amamae cathut hanelah hmai a sawi awh.
32 What I command thee, that only do thou to the Lord: neither add any thing, nor diminish.
Nang teh kai ni kâ na poe e pueng hah na sak nahanelah na kâhruetcuet han. Nang ni bout thapsin hanh, bout rayu hanh.
