Deuteronomy 22
1 Thou shalt not pass by if thou seest thy brother’s ox, or his sheep go astray: but thou shalt bring them back to thy brother.
Na hmaunawngha e maito hoehpawiteh tu kahmat e hah na hmu nahlangva laplap khen hanh.
2 And if thy brother be not nigh, or thou know him not: thou shalt bring them to thy house, and they shall be with thee until thy brother seek them, and receive them.
Na hmaunawngha ahlanae koe ao e hah na panue hoeh nakunghai na im vah na hrawi pouh han. Na hmaunawngha ni a tawng hoeh roukrak na im vah na hruek pouh han. Hathnukkhu, na hmaunawngha koe bout na poe han.
3 Thou shalt do in like manner with his ass, and with his raiment, and with every thing that is thy brother’s, which is lost: if thou find it, neglect it not as pertaining to another.
La hai thoseh, hnicu hai thoseh, buetbuet touh a kahma e hah na hmawt pawiteh, laplap khen laipalah, hottelah na sak han.
4 If thou see thy brother’s ass or his ox to be fallen down in the way, thou shalt not slight it, but shalt lift it up with him.
Na hmaunawngha e maitotan nakunghai, la nakunghai lam dawk sut kamlet e na hmawt pawiteh, na kâhrawk takhai mahoeh. Na pathaw roeroe han.
5 A woman shall not be clothed with man’s apparel, neither shall a man use woman’s apparel: for he that doeth these things is abominable before God.
Napui ni tongpa e khohna hah khohnat mahoeh. Hottelah ka khohnat e teh nangmae BAWIPA Cathut ni a panuet.
6 If thou find as thou walkest by the way, a bird’s nest in a tree, or on the ground, and the dam sitting upon the young or upon the eggs: thou shalt not take her with her young:
Lamthung teng thingkung dawk na ou, talai dawk na ou, tavacanaw hoi hoehpawiteh, a taduinaw khuehoi tavatabu na hmu teh, a manu ma ni awt boipawiteh, a canaw khuehoi a manu mek na lat mahoeh.
7 But shalt let her go, keeping the young which thou hast caught: that it may be well with thee, and thou mayst live a long time.
Nang ni hnokahawi na coe teh na hringyung vang nahanelah, a canaw na la nakunghai, a manu ma teh na tha han.
8 When thou buildest a new house, thou shalt make a battlement to the roof round about: lest blood be shed in thy house, and thou be guilty, if any one slip, and fall down headlong.
Im katha na sak navah, lemphu hah na tumdum han. Hottelah na sak pawiteh, tami buetbuet touh bawt payon pawiteh, nange im teh thipalawngnae im lah awm mahoeh.
9 Thou shalt not sow thy vineyard with divers seeds: lest both the seed which thou hast sown, and the fruit of the vineyard, be sanctified together.
Misur dawk kâvan hoeh e atimu na kahei mahoeh. Hottelah na kahei pawiteh, misur paw hoi atimu paw mek a rawk han.
10 Thou shalt not plough with an ox and an ass together.
Maito hoi la cungtalah laikawk na thawn sak mahoeh.
11 Thou shalt not wear a garment that is woven of woollen and linen together.
Pahla hoi tumuen kacokalei e khohna na khohnat mahoeh.
12 Thou shalt make strings in the hem at the four corners of thy cloak, wherewith thou shalt be covered.
Na kâkayo e hni hah, arai pali touh dawk na yep han.
13 If a man marry a wife, and afterwards hate her,
Tami buet touh ni a yu a Paluen teh a ikhai hnukkhu a ma teh,
14 And seek occasions to put her away, laying to her charge a very ill name, and say: I took this woman to wife, and going in to her, I found her not a virgin:
kai ni hete napui teh ka yu lah ka la toe. Ka ikhai hnukkhu, ahni teh, kacuem e nahoeh tie ka panue telah ati teh, dudamnae lahoi a min mathout sak pawiteh,
15 Her father and mother shall take her, and shall bring with them the tokens of her virginity to the ancients of the city that are in the gate:
hote napui e a manu hoi na pa ni, tanglakacuem lah a onae hah, kacuenaw koe kho longkha koe a thokhai awh han.
16 And the father shall say: I gave my daughter unto this man to wife: and because he hateth her,
Hote napui e a na pa ni kacuenaw koe a dei hane teh, kai ni ka canu teh, hete tongpa koe a yu lah ka poe toe. Hatei, ahni ni a pahnawt.
17 He layeth to her charge a very ill name, so as to say: I found not thy daughter a virgin: and behold these are the tokens of my daughter’s virginity. And they shall spread the cloth before the ancients of the city:
Khen haw, nange canu teh kacuem e nahoeh ati teh, dudamnae lahoi a min a mathoe sak. Hatei, hetnaw teh ka canu tanglakacuem lah a onae doeh, telah a dei han. Ahnimouh ni kacuenaw e hmalah hni hah a kadai awh han.
18 And the ancients of that city shall take that man, and beat him,
Hathnukkhu, kacuenaw ni hote tongpa hah a hem awh vaiteh a yue awh han.
19 Condemning him besides in a hundred sides of silver, which he shall give to the damsel’s father, because he hath defamed by a very ill name a virgin of Israel: and he shall have her to wife, and may not put her away all the days of his life.
Ahnimouh ni ahni hah shekel 100 touh a rawng sak awh vaiteh, napui e a na pa hah a poe awh han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Isarelnaw e tanglakacuem koe min mathoenae hah a sak dawk doeh. Hote napui teh ahnie a yu lah ao han. A due hoeh roukrak hote napui hoi kampek mahoeh.
20 But if what he charged her with be true, and virginity be not found in the damsel:
Hatei, tongpa ni a dei patetlah, awm boi, napui e tanglakacuem lah a onae patue thai hoeh pawiteh,
21 They shall cast her out of the doors of her father’s house, and the men of the city shall stone her to death, and she shall die: because she hath done a wicked thing in Israel, to play the whore in her father’s house: and thou shalt take away the evil out of the midst of thee.
khothung e tongpanaw ni hote napui hah a na pa im takhang koe a tâco khai awh vaiteh, talung hoi ka dout lah a dei awh han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, a na pa im vah tak a kâyo e lahoi Isarelnaw koe min mathoenae a kamnue sak toe. Hatdawkvah, nangmouh thung hoi yonnae hah na takhoe awh han.
22 If a man lie with another man’s wife, they shall both die, that is to say, the adulterer and the adulteress: and thou shalt take away the evil out of Israel.
Tongpa buet touh teh, a vâ ka tawn e napui buet touh hoi a i roi e hah hmawt pawiteh, napui koe ka ip e tongpa hoi hote napui mek thei han. Hottelah Isarelnaw thung hoi yonnae hah na takhoe awh han.
23 If a man have espoused a damsel that is a virgin, and some one find her in the city, and lie with her,
Tanglakacuem hah tongpa ni a hâ hnukkhu, alouke tongpa ni a kho thung vah a hmu teh, ipkhai pawiteh,
24 Thou shalt bring them both out to the gate of that city, and they shall be stoned: the damsel, because she cried not out, being in the city: the man, because he hath humbled his neighbour’s wife. And thou shalt take away the evil from the midst of thee.
hote napui ni kho thungvah a hram hoeh dawk thoseh, tongpa hai a imri e a yu thama lahoi a ikhai dawk thoseh, nangmouh ni ahni maroi hah kho longkha koe na ceikhai awh vaiteh, talung hoi kadout lah na dei awh han. Hottelah hoi nangmouh thung hoi yonnae hah na takhoe awh han.
25 But if a man find a damsel that is betrothed, in the field, and taking hold of her, lie with her, he alone shall die:
Tongpa buet touh ni tongpa buet touh hoi sut kâhâ tangcoung e napui hah a hmu teh, a man teh hote napui hah ipkhai pawiteh, hote napui ka ipkhai e tongpa dueng hah na thei han.
26 The damsel shall suffer nothing, neither is she guilty of death: for as a robber riseth against his brother, and taketh away his life, so also did the damsel suffer:
Hatei, hote napui hah bangtelah hai na tet mahoeh.
27 She was alone in the field: she cried, and there was no man to help her.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, tongpa ni hote napui hah kahrawngum a hmu teh, a hâ tangcoung e napui ni a hram eiteh, ahni kabawm hanelah apihai ao hoeh dawkvah, hote lai teh tami reira kâthei e hoi a kâvan.
28 If a man find a damsel that is a virgin, who is not espoused, and taking her, lie with her, and the matter come to judgment:
Tongpa buet touh ni hâ hoeh rah e tanglakacuem hah a hmu teh a man teh, ipkhai pawiteh,
29 He that lay with her shall give to the father of the maid fifty sides of silver, and shall have her to wife, because he hath humbled her: he may not put her away all the days of his life.
ahni ka ipkhai e tongpa teh shekel 50 touh napui e a na pa koe a poe vaiteh, hote napui teh, hote tongpa e yu lah ao han. Ahni ni hote napui hah thama lahoi a ikhai dawk doeh. Ahni ni hote napui hah a hringyung thung kapek mahoeh.
30 No man shall take his father’s wife, nor remove his covering.
Apinihai na pa e yu hah lat pouh mahoeh. A na pa e hni hawng pouh mahoeh.
