Deuteronomy 17
1 Thou shalt not sacrifice to the Lord thy God a sheep, or an ox, wherein there is blemish, or any fault: for that is an abomination to the Lord thy God.
Maito thoseh, tu thoseh, toun kaawm e, kakuep hoeh e hoi na BAWIPA Cathut koe thuengnae na sak mahoeh. Hot patetlah e thuengnae BAWIPA Cathut ni a panuet e lah ao.
2 When there shall be found among you within any of thy gates, which the Lord thy God shall give thee, man or woman that do evil in the sight of the Lord thy God, and transgress his covenant,
Na BAWIPA Cathut ni na poe e khonaw dawkvah,
3 So as to go and serve strange gods, and adore them, the sun and the moon. and all the host of heaven, which I have not commanded:
kanî, thapa, kalvan hno tie patetnaw, kai ni ka pasoung hoeh e alouke cathutnaw koe na cei awh teh, na bawk awh teh, na BAWIPA Cathut e lawkkam na tapuet awh teh, a hmalah yonnae ka sakpayon e napui tongpa ao telah,
4 And this is told thee, and hearing it thou hast inquired diligently, and found it to be true, and that the abomination is committed in Israel:
nang ni kamthang na thai teh akung na khei navah, Isarel miphun dawk hot patetlah e panuettho e hah sakpayon katang pawiteh,
5 Thou shalt bring forth the man or the woman, who have committed that most wicked thing, to the gates of thy city, and they shall be stoned.
hote yonnae ka sak e napui tongpa hah kho longkha koe na ceikhai awh vaiteh, talung hoi na dei awh vaiteh na thei awh han.
6 By the mouth of two or three witnesses shall he die that is to be slain. Let no man be put to death, when only one beareth witness against him.
Lawkpanuesaknae kapanuekkhaikung kahni touh kathum touh awm pawiteh, due kamcu e tami teh na thei awh katang han. Lawkpanuesaknae kapanuekkhaikung buet touh dueng awm pawiteh, thet mahoeh.
7 The hands of the witnesses shall be first upon him to kill him, and afterwards the hands of the rest of the people: that thou mayst take away the evil out of the midst of thee.
Hote tami hah thei hanelah kapanuekkhaikungnaw ni hmaloe a kut a pho awh hnukkhu, tami pueng ni kut a pho awh han. Hottelah na sak awh pawiteh, nangmouh koehoi yonnae teh takhoe lah ao han.
8 If thou perceive that there be among you a hard and doubtful matter in judgment between blood and blood, cause and cause, leprosy and leprosy: and thou see that the words of the judges within thy gates do vary: arise, and go up to the place, which the Lord thy God shall choose.
Na khothung vah tami kâtheinae, kâyuenae, kâhemnae naw hah nang hanlah lawkcengnae ru poung pawiteh, na BAWIPA Cathut ni a rawi e hmuen koe na cei awh vaiteh,
9 And thou shalt come to the priests of the Levitical race, and to the judge, that shall be at that time: and thou shalt ask of them, and they shall shew thee the truth of the judgment.
hatnae tueng dawkvah, lawkcengkung thaw ka tawk e, vaihma, Levihnaw e hmalah lawkceng lah ao awh han. Ahnimouh ni hai lawkcengnae hah a pathang awh han.
10 And thou shalt do whatsoever they shall say, that preside in the place, which the Lord shall choose, and what they shall teach thee,
BAWIPA Cathut ni a rawi e hmuen koe kaawm e naw ni a dei e patetlah nang ni na sak han. Ahnimouh ni na cangkhai e patetlah na sak nahanelah na kâhruetcuet han.
11 According to his law; and thou shalt follow their sentence: neither shalt thou decline to the right hand nor to the left hand.
Ahnimouh ni na cangkhai e lawkcengnae hoi a dei awh e lawk tâtueng e patetlah na sak han. Ahnimouh ni na patue e cangkhainae dawk hoi avoilah aranglah na phen mahoeh.
12 But he that will be proud, and refuse to obey the commandment of the priest, who ministereth at that time to the Lord thy God, and the decree of the judge, that man shall die, and thou shalt take away the evil from Israel:
BAWIPA Cathut hmalah thaw ka tawk e vaihmabawi, lawkcengkungnaw e lawk ngâi laipalah, tarankahawi lah ka sak e teh thei hanlah ao. Hottelah hoi, Isarelnaw thung hoi hot patet e yonnae hah na takhoe awh han.
13 And all the people hearing it shall fear, that no one afterwards swell with pride.
Hote kamthang hah tami pueng ni a thai awh toteh, a taki awh vaiteh, hottelah taranhawi laihoi bout sak awh mahoeh toe.
14 When thou art come into the land, which the Lord thy God will give thee, and possessest it, and shalt say: I will set a king over me, as all nations have that are round about:
Na BAWIPA Cathut ni na poe e ram dawk na pha teh, hawvah kho na sak toteh, ka tengpam vah kaawm e Jentelnaw patetlah siangpahrang buetbuet touh tawn awh sei na tetpawiteh,
15 Thou shalt set him whom the Lord thy God shall choose out of the number of thy brethren. Thou mayst not make a man of another nation king, that is not thy brother.
Na BAWIPA Cathut ni a rawi e na hmaunawngha reirei duengdoeh siangpahrang lah na tawm a han. Na hmaunawngha lah kaawm hoeh e Jentelnaw hah siangpahrang lah na tawm awh mahoeh.
16 And when he is made king, he shall not multiply horses to himself, nor lead back the people into Egypt, being lifted up with the number of his horsemen, especially since the Lord hath commanded you to return no more the same way.
Hote siangpahrang teh ama hanelah marang moikapap paca mahoeh. Marang moikapap a tawn nahanelah Izip ram tami ban sak mahoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, hote lamthung koe bout na ban mahoeh telah BAWIPA ni ati.
17 He shall not have many wives, that may allure his mind, nor immense sums of silver and gold.
Ahnie a lungthin a rawp hoeh nahanelah, yu moikapap lat mahoeh. Suingun hai moikapap pâkhueng mahoeh.
18 But after he is raised to the throne of his kingdom, he shall copy out to himself the Deuteronomy of this law in a volume, taking the copy of the priests of the Levitical tribe,
Hettelah ao han. A uknaeram bawitungkhung dawk a tahung toteh, Levih tami, vaihma bawinaw ni a tarawi awh e kâlawk hah cauk lah ama hanelah a thut han.
19 And he shall have it with him, and shall read it all the days of his life, that he may learn to fear the Lord his God, and keep his words and ceremonies, that are commanded in the law;
Hote cauk teh ama koe ao vaiteh, hnintangkuem a touk han. Hottelah tetpawiteh, BAWIPA Cathut hah a taki nahanelah thoseh, hete kâlawknaw pueng a kuem nahanelah thoseh, a tarawi nahanelah thoseh, a kamtu thai han.
20 And that his heart be not lifted up with pride over his brethren, nor decline to the right or to the left, that he and his sons may reign a long time over Israel.
Ama e a lungthin hah a hmaunawnghanaw lathueng kâtawm thai hoeh. Kâlawk dawk hoi avoilah aranglah kamlang thai hoeh. Hottelah tetpawiteh, a ram thung Isarelnaw rahak vah, ama hoi a canaw teh a hring a saw awh han.
