< Numbers 18 >

1 And the Lord said to Aaron: Thou, and thy sons, and thy father’s house with thee shall bear the iniquity of the sanctuary: and thou and thy sons with thee shall bear the sins of your priesthood.
BAWIPA ni Aron koevah, nangmouh hoi na capanaw hoi nang koe kaawm e na pa imthungnaw ni, hmuen kathoung hoi kâkuen e payonpakainae yon teh na phu awh han. Hahoi nama hoi nang koe kaawm e na capanaw hoi vaihma lah na onae hoi kâkuen e payonpakainae yo hah na phu awh han.
2 And take with thee thy brethren also of the tribe of Levi, and the sceptre of thy father, and let them be ready in hand, and minister to thee: but thou and thy sons shall minister in the tabernacle of the testimony.
Na pa miphun, Levih miphun na hmaunawnghanaw ni kapanuekkhaikung lukkareiim hmalah na capanaw koe ao navah, nang hoi thaw cungtalah rei a tawk thai nahan, nang koe na thokhai han.
3 And the Levites shall watch to do thy commands, and about all the works of the tabernacle: only they shall not come nigh the vessels of the sanctuary nor the altar, lest both they die, and you also perish with them.
Na panki e thaw hoi lukkareiim thaw a panki e naw na kabawp han. Hatei, hmuen kathoung hlaamnaw hoi bawknae khoungroe hah hnai awh hanh naseh, telah nahoeh pawiteh, ahnimouh hai nangmouh hai na due awh han.
4 But let them be with thee, and watch in the charge of the tabernacle, and in all the ceremonies thereof. A stranger shall not join himself with you.
Ahnimouh ni na kabawp awh vaiteh, kamkhuengnae lukkareiim thaw pueng hah a panki e patetlah lukkareiim thaw a tawk awh han. Hatei alawilae tami ni na hnai awh mahoeh.
5 Watch ye in the charge of the sanctuary, and in the ministry of the altar: lest indignation rise upon the children of Israel.
Isarel catounnaw lathueng vah lungkhueknae ao hoeh nahanlah, nang nama ni hmuen kathoung thaw hoi khoungroe thaw hah na ham lah na la han.
6 I have given you your brethren the Levites from among the children of Israel, and have delivered them for a gift to the Lord, to serve in the ministries of the tabernacle.
Khenhaw! kai ni na hmaunawngha Levih taminaw hah Isarel catounnaw thung hoi ka la teh, kamkhuengnae lukkareiim koe thaw tawk hanlah, nangmouh hanlah BAWIPA koehoi poe e nangmouh koe poe e doeh.
7 But thou and thy sons look ye to the priesthood: and all things that pertain to the service of the altar, and that are within the veil, shall be executed by the priests. If any stranger shall approach, he shall be slain.
Hatdawkvah, nang nama hoi na capanaw ni khoungroe hoi yaphni athung lae hnonaw pueng dawk vaihma na coungnae thaw heh poehno patetlah nang koe poe lah ao. Hatei, alawilae tami bawk pawiteh thei lah ao han.
8 And the Lord said to Aaron: Behold I have given thee the charge of my firstfruits. All things that are sanctified by the children of Israel, I have delivered to thee and to thy sons for the priestly office, by everlasting ordinances.
BAWIPA ni Aron a pato teh, khenhaw! kai kama roeroe ni kahek thuengnae koe Isarel catounnaw poehno kathoungnaw pueng hah, nang nama hoi na capanaw e ham lah a yungyoe hane phung lah na poe.
9 These therefore shalt thou take of the things that are sanctified, and are offered to the Lord. Every offering, and sacrifice, and whatsoever is rendered to me for sin and for trespass, and becometh holy of holies, shall be for thee and thy sons.
Hmai sawi hoeh e pueng nang han hno kathoung poung lah ao han. A pasoung awh e pueng, tavai thuengnae, yon thuengnae, hoi kâtapoe thuengnae, kai koe na poe awh e hah, nang hoi na capanaw hanlah ka thoung poung lah ao han.
10 Thou shalt eat it in the sanctuary: the males only shall eat thereof, because it is a consecrated thing to thee.
Tongpa pueng ni hmuen kathoung poung koe na ca awh vaiteh, nangmouh hanlah ka thoung e lah ao han.
11 But the firstfruits, which the children of Israel shall vow and offer, I have given to thee, and to thy sons, and to thy daughters, by a perpetual law. He that is clean in thy house, shall eat them.
Het hai na ham lah ao han, tavai thuengnae koe a poe awh e hno, Isarel catounnaw kahek thuengnae hnopoe pueng hah nang nama hoi na capa na canu naw hoi a yungyoe na ham lah na poe. Na im dawk tamikathoung kaawm e pueng ni a ca thai awh han.
12 All the best of the oil, and of the wine, and of the corn, whatsoever firstfruits they offer to the Lord, I have given them to thee.
Kahawipoung e satui hoi misur kahawipoung e hoi aluepaw BAWIPA hanlah a poe awh e hah na poe.
13 All the firstripe of the fruits, that the ground bringeth forth, and which are brought to the Lord, shall be for thy use: he that is clean in thy house, shall eat them.
Ahnimae law dawk e aluepaw hmaloe ka hmin e BAWIPA hanlah a poe awh e hah nange lah ao han. Na im dawk tamikathoung kaawm e pueng ni a ca thai awh han.
14 Every thing that the children of Israel shall give by vow, shall be thine.
Isarelnaw ni poehno e pueng teh nange lah ao han.
15 Whatsoever is firstborn of all flesh, which they offer to the Lord, whether it be of men, or of beasts, shall belong to thee: only for the firstborn of man thou shalt take a price, and every beast that is unclean thou shalt cause to be redeemed,
BAWIPA hanlah a poe awh e camoim ka paawng pasuek e pueng teh tami thoseh, saring thoseh nange lah ao han. Hatei camin teh na ratang roeroe han. Kathounghoehe saring camin hai na ratang han.
16 And the redemption of it shall be after one month, for five sicles of silver, by the weight of the sanctuary. A sicle hath twenty obols.
Thapa yung touh e ratang hanlah kaawm e hah ratangnae phu na to vaiteh, hmuen kathoung koe hno e sekel panga touh hoi na ratang han (sekel teh gerah 20 touh doeh).
17 But the firstling of a cow and of a sheep and of a goat thou shalt not cause to be redeemed, because they are sanctified to the Lord. Their blood only thou shalt pour upon the altar, and their fat thou shalt burn for a most sweet odour to the Lord.
Hatei maitotan camin hoi tu camin hoi hmae camin teh na ratang awh mahoeh. Hotnaw teh a thoung awh. A thipaling teh khoungroe dawk na kathek vaiteh, BAWIPA han hmuitui lah athaw hah hmai hoi hmaisawi thuengnae koe na sawi awh han.
18 But the flesh shall fall to thy use, as the consecrated breast, and the right shoulder shall be thine.
Kahek thuengnae koe a takuep hoi aloung teh nange lah ao e patetlah a moi hah nange lah ao han.
19 All the firstfruits of the sanctuary which the children of Israel offer to the Lord, I have given to thee and to thy sons and daughters, by a perpetual ordinance. It is a covenant of salt for ever before the Lord, to thee and to thy sons.
Kathounge hno hoi kahek thuengnae koe Isarelnaw ni BAWIPA hanlah a poe awh e hah, a yungyoe na ham lah na poe. BAWIPA hmalah nang nama hoi na capanaw hoi na canu naw hoi yungyoe lawkkam lah ao han telah ati.
20 And the Lord said to Aaron: You shall possess nothing in their land, neither shall you have a portion among them: I am thy portion and inheritance in the midst of the children of Israel.
BAWIPA ni Aron koevah, a ram dawk na ham kawi banghai awm mahoeh, a thungup hai na ham kawi banghai awm mahoeh. Kai doeh Isarel catoun thung dawk na ham hoi na coe e râw lah ka o.
21 And I have given to the sons of Levi all the tithes of Israel for a possession for the ministry wherewith they serve me in the tabernacle of the covenant:
Hahoi Levih catounnaw teh, khenhaw! thawtawknae koe a thaw tawk awh e lukkareiim koe thaw tawk phu lah Isarel ram e pung hra pung touh pueng teh na poe awh.
22 That the children of Israel may not approach any more to the tabernacle, nor commit deadly sin,
Atu totouh hoi teh Isarel catounnaw ni, kamkhuengnae lukkareiim teh hnai awh roeroe hanh naseh. Telah hoehpawiteh, yonpennae phu hoi a due payon awh han doeh.
23 But only the sons of Levi may serve me in the tabernacle, and bear the sins of the people. It shall be an everlasting ordinance in your generations. They shall not possess any other thing,
Hatei, Levihnaw ni kamkhuengnae lukkareiim koe thaw a tawk awh vaiteh, thaw abuemlahoi a la awh han. Hetnaw heh catounnaw ditouh phunglam lah ao han. Isarel catoun thung vah a ham kawi banghai awm mahoeh.
24 But be content with the oblation or tithes, which I have separated for their uses and necessities.
Isarel catounnaw ni pung hra pung touh BAWIPA hanlah kahek thuengnae a poe awh e hah Levihnaw hanlah râw lah ka poe toe. Hatdawkvah, ahnimouh koe Isarel catounnaw thung dawk râw a coe kawi banghai awm mahoeh telah yo ka ti pouh toung tayaw telah ati.
25 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
BAWIPA ni Mosi hah a pato teh,
26 Command the Levites, and declare unto them: When you shall receive of the children of Israel the tithes, which I have given you, offer the firstfruits of them to the Lord, that is to say, the tenth part of the tenth:
hothloilah Levihnaw hah pato nateh, ahnimouh koe na râw hanlah Isarel catounnaw pung hra touh dawk pung touh na poe e hah ahnimouh koehoi na hmu awh toteh, hote pung hra pung touh e thung hoi pung hra pung touh hah BAWIPA koe kahek thuengnae na poe awh han.
27 That it may be reckoned to you as an oblation of firstfruits, as well of the barnfloors as of the winepresses:
Hottelah nangmae kahek thuengnae teh cangkatinnae koe cakang aluepaw hoi misurtui ahruem patetlah pouk e lah ao han.
28 And of all the things of which you receive tithes, offer the firstfruits to the Lord, and give them to Aaron the priest.
Hottelah Isarel catounnaw koehoi pung hra pung touh na hmu awh e pueng BAWIPA hanelah kahek thuengnae koe pou na poe awh han. Hahoi BAWIPA hanelah kahek thuengnae hah Aron na poe awh han.
29 All the things that you shall offer of the tithes, and shall separate for the gifts of the Lord, shall be the best and choicest things.
Na hmu awh e pueng thung hoi, kahawipoung, kathoungpounge hah BAWIPA koe kahek thuengnae na poe awh han.
30 And thou shalt say to them: If you offer all the goodly and the better things of the tithes, it shall be reckoned to you as if you had given the firstfruits of the barnfloor and the winepress:
Hatdawkvah ahnimouh koe, hotnaw thung dawk hoi kahawi poung e na kahek awh toteh, Levihnaw a cangkatin e dawk hoi ka tâcawt e hoi misurtui ka lawng e patetlah pouk lah ao han.
31 And you shall eat them in all your places, both you and your families: because it is your reward for the ministry, wherewith you serve in the tabernacle of the testimony.
Nâ e hmuen pueng koehai koung na ca thai awh han. Nangmouh hoi na imthung ni hai, bangkongtetpawiteh, kamkhuengnae lukkareiim koe e thaw tawk phu doeh
32 And you shall not sin in this point, by reserving the choicest and fat things to yourselves, lest you profane the oblations of the children of Israel, and die.
Kahawipoung e na kahek awh toteh, yonae yon phu lah awm mahoeh. Hatei, Isarel catounnaw poehno kathounge hah na kamhnawng awh mahoeh, telah hoehpawiteh, na due awh han tet pouh telah atipouh.
