Leviticus 11
1 And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying:
BAWIPA ni Mosi hoi Aron bout a kaw teh,
2 Say to the children of Israel: These are the animals which you are to eat of all the living things of the earth.
Nangmouh roi ni Isarelnaw koe patuen bout na dei pouh hane teh, talai van kaawm e moithang pueng dawk,
3 Whatsoever hath the hoof divided, and cheweth the cud among the beasts, you shall eat.
A khoksamen samka ni teh a thepkaai e moithangnaw teh ca thainae kâ ao.
4 But whatsoever cheweth indeed the cud, and hath a hoof, but divideth it not, as the camel, and others, that you shall not eat, but shall reckon it among the unclean.
Hatei, thepkaai ni teh khoksamen samka hoeh e moithang thung dawk, ca hoeh hane moithangnaw teh Kalauk teh athepai hoeh eiteh khoksamen samka hoeh dawkvah nangmouh hanlah thoung hoeh.
5 The cherogrillus which cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof, is unclean.
Kovei teh thepkaai eiteh a khoksamen samka hoeh dawkvah nangmouh hanlah thoung hoeh.
6 The hare also: for that too cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof.
Saveh teh thepkaai eiteh a khoksamen samka hoeh dawkvah nangmouh hanlah thoung hoeh.
7 And the swine, which, though it divideth the hoof, cheweth not the cud.
Vok teh a khoksamen samka eiteh thepkaai hoeh dawkvah nangmouh hanlah thoung hoeh.
8 The flesh of these you shall not eat, nor shall you touch their carcasses, because they are unclean to you.
Hot patet e moithangnaw e a moi na cat awh mahoeh. Ro haiyah na tek awh mahoeh. Kathounghoehe lah na pouk awh han.
9 These are the things that breed in the waters, and which it is lawful to eat. All that hath fins, and scales, as well in the sea, as in the rivers, and the pools, you shall eat.
Tuipui hoi sawkca dawk kaawm e moithangnaw thung dawk a rathei hoi a lakep kaawm e teh na ca awh han.
10 But whatsoever hath not fins and scales, of those things that move and live in the waters, shall be an abomination to you,
A rathei hoi a lakep kaawm hoeh e tuipui hoi sawkca dawk kaawm e moithang pueng teh nangmouh hanlah thoung hoeh.
11 And detestable: their flesh you shall not eat, and their carcasses you shall avoid.

12 All that have not fins and scales, in the waters, shall be unclean.

20 Of things that fly, whatsoever goeth upon four feet, shall be abominable to you.
A rathei ka tawn ni teh a khok pali touh hoi kacetnaw pueng teh nangmouh hanlah kathounghoehe lah ao.
21 But whatsoever walketh upon four feet, but hath the legs behind longer, wherewith it hoppeth upon the earth,

42 Whatsoever goeth upon the breast on four feet, or hath many feet, or traileth on the earth, you shall not eat, because it is abominable.

43 Do not defile your souls, nor touch aught thereof, lest you be unclean,
Kâva e saring buetbuet touh kecu namahoima kâkhinsak awh hanh. Hotnaw hoi nama kâkhinsak awh hanh.
44 For I am the Lord your God: be holy because I am holy. Defile not your souls by any creeping thing, that moveth upon the earth.

46 You shall be holy, because I am holy. This is the law of beasts and fowls, and of every living creature that moveth in the waters, and creepeth on the earth:
Hetnaw teh, kathoung, kathoung hoeh, cakawi hoi cakawi hoeh e saringnaw kapek thai nahanelah,
47 That you may know the differences of the clean, and unclean, and know what you ought to eat, and what to refuse.
