< Numbers 5 >
1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
BOEIPA loh Moses te a voek tih,
2 Command the children of Israel, that they cast out of the camp every leper, and whosoever hath an issue of seed, or is defiled by the dead:
“Israel ca te uen lamtah aka pahuk boeih neh aka hnai boeih khaw, hinglu aka rhalawt boeih te rhaehhmuen lamloh tueih uh.
3 Whether it be man or woman, cast ye them out of the camp, lest they defile it when I shall dwell with you.
Tongpa lamloh huta hil rhaehhmuen kah vongvoel la tueih. Amih khui ah ka om te amih na tueih uh daengah ni a rhaehhmuen a poeih uh pawt eh?,” a ti nah.
4 And the children of Israel did so, and they cast them forth without the camp, as the Lord had spoken to Moses.
Israel ca rhoek loh a ngai tangloeng tih amih te rhaehhmuen kah a voel la a tueih uh. BOEIPA loh Moses taengah a uen bangla Israel ca rhoek loh a saii tangloeng uh.
5 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
Te phoeiah BOEIPA loh Moses te a voek tih,
6 Say to the children of Israel: When a man or woman shall have committed any of all the sins that men are wont to commit, and by negligence shall have transgressed the commandment of the Lord, and offended,
“Isreal ca rhoek te tongpa khaw huta khaw thui pah. BOEIPA taengah boekoeknah la boekoek ham hlang kah tholhnah cungkuem a saii uh dongah a hinglu te boe coeng.
7 They shall confess their sin, and restore the principal itself, and the fifth part over and above, to him against whom they have sinned.
Te dongah tholhnah a saii uh te phoe uh saeh lamtah a hmaithennah te a lu taengah mael saeh. Te phoeiah te te a panga neh koei saeh lamtah anih aka boe sak taengah pae saeh.
8 But if there be no one to receive it, they shall give it to the Lord, and it shall be the priest’s, besides the ram that is offered for expiation, to be an atoning sacrifice.
Tedae aka tlan ham hlang neh a taengah hmaithennah a sah ham a om pawt atah, hmaithennah te BOEIPA taengah khosoih ham pae saeh. Te vaengah anih ham dawthnah tutal bueng neh dawth pah saeh.
9 All the firstfruits also, which the children of Israel offer, belong to the priest:
Israel ca rhoek kah a cim boeih lamloh khocang cungkuem khaw khosoih taengla khuen saeh lamtah anih ham om saeh.
10 And whatsoever is offered into the sanctuary by every one, and is delivered into the hands of the priest, it shall be his.
Hlang he amah, amah ah hnocim rhip a khueh te khosoih taengah pae saeh lamtah anih ham om pah saeh,” a ti nah.
11 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
BOEIPA loh Moses te a voek tih,
12 Speak to the children of Israel, and thou shalt say to them: The man whose wife shall have gone astray, and contemning her husband,
“Israel ca rhoek taengah thui pah lamtah amih te, 'Hlang pakhat kah a yuu te taengphael tih a taengah boekoeknah la boe a koek,
13 Shall have slept with another man, and her husband cannot discover it, but the adultery is secret, and cannot be proved by witnesses, because she was not found in the adultery:
anih te tongpa loh yangtui kah a khaan neh a yalh puei atah a va mikhmuh lamloh hlipdah uh tih thuh uh cakhaw amah poeih uh coeng. Tedae anih taengah laipai om pawt tih anih tu pawh,
14 If the spirit of jealousy stir up the husband against his wife, who either is defiled, or is charged with false suspicion,
Anih soah thatlainah mueihla a pha akhaw, a yuu taengah a thatlai akhaw, huta te poeih uh tih tongpa soah thatlainah mueihla a caeh khaw, a yuu taengah thatlai dae a yuu a poeih uh pawt akhaw,
15 He shall bring her to the priest, and shall offer an oblation for her, the tenth part of a measure of barley meal: he shall not pour oil thereon, nor put frankincense upon it: because it is a sacrifice of jealousy, and an oblation searching out adultery.
tongpa loh a yuu te khosoih taengla khuen saeh lamtah anih ham a nawnnah te cangtun vaidam cangnoek parha khuen saeh. Tekah kah thatlainah kah khocang dongah a soah situi khaw bueih boel saeh lamtah hmueihtui khaw a soah khueh boel saeh. Poekkoepnah khocang lothaesainah te thoelh saeh.
16 The priest therefore shall offer it, and set it before the Lord.
Te phoeiah anih te khosoih loh khuen saeh lamtah BOEIPA mikhmuh ah pai sak saeh.
17 And he shall take holy water in an earthen vessel, and he shall cast a little earth of the pavement of the tabernacle into it.
Te vaengah khosoih loh lai am dongah tui cim khuen saeh. Dungtlungim cirhong ah aka om laipi te khaw khosoih loh lo saeh lamtah tui khuiah sang saeh.
18 And when the woman shall stand before the Lord, he shall uncover her head, and shall, put on her hands the sacrifice of remembrance, and the oblation of jealousy: and he himself shall hold the most bitter waters, whereon he hath heaped curses with execration.
Te phoeiah khosoih loh huta te BOEIPA mikhmuh ah pai sak saeh lamtah huta lu te lim pah saeh. Thatlainah khocang dongkah poekkoepnah khocang neh khosoih kut ah aka om tih thae a phoei thil khahing tui te a kut ah pae saeh.
19 And he shall adjure her, and shall say: If another man hath not slept with thee, and if thou be not defiled by forsaking thy husband’s bed, these most bitter waters, on which I have heaped curses, shall not hurt thee.
Anih te khosoih loh toemngam saeh lamtah huta te, “Nang taengah hlang yalh pawt tih na va hmuiah a tihnai neh na taengphael pawt atah he kah thae a phoei thil khahing tui loh m'hmil saeh.
20 But if thou hast gone aside from thy husband, and art defiled, and hast lain with another man:
Tedae nang te na va hmui lamloh na taengphael tih na poeih uh vaengah hlang loh nang te na va a om pawt ah a tamtah te a khueh khaming,’ ti nah saeh.
21 These curses shall light upon thee: The Lord make thee a curse, and an example for all among his people: may he make thy thigh to rot, and may thy belly swell and burst asunder.
Te vaengah khosoih loh huta te thaephoeinah olhlo neh toemngam saeh. Khosoih loh huta te, “BOEIPA loh nang te na pilnam khui kah thaephoeinah neh olhlo bangla n'khueh saeh. BOEIPA loh n'saii vaengah na phai pim saeh lamtah na bung khaw thung saeh.
22 Let the cursed waters enter into thy belly, and may thy womb swell and thy thigh rot. And the woman shall answer, Amen, amen.
Thaephoei tui he na ko khuila kun saeh lamtah na bung thung saeh, na phai pim saeh,’ ti nah saeh. Te vaengah huta loh, “Amen, Amen,” ti saeh.
23 And the priest shall write these curses in a book, and shall wash them out with the most bitter waters, upon which he hath heaped the curses,
He kah thaephoeinah he khosoih loh cabu khuiah daek saeh lamtah khahing tui neh huih saeh.
24 And he shall give them her to drink. And when she hath drunk them up,
Thaephoei khahing tui te huta tul saeh lamtah thaephoei tui te a khuiah khahing la kun saeh.
25 The priest shall take from her hand the sacrifice of jealousy, and shall elevate it before the Lord, and shall put it upon the altar: yet so as first,
Te vaengah khosoih loh huta kut lamkah thatlainah khocang te lo saeh. Tedae khocang te BOEIPA mikhmuh ah thueng saeh lamtah hmueihtuk la khuen saeh.
26 To take a handful of the sacrifice of that which is offered, and burn it upon the altar: and so give the most bitter waters to the woman to drink.
Te phoeiah khosoih loh kamhoeinah khocang te paco saeh lamtah hmueihtuk ah a phum phoeiah a hnuk la huta te tui tul saeh.
27 And when she hath drunk them, if she be defiled, and having despised her husband be guilty of adultery, the malediction shall go through her, and her belly swelling, her thigh shall rot: and the woman shall be a curse, and an example to all the people.
Anih te poeih uh tih a va taengah boekoeknah neh boekoek la a om atah tui a tul tih a khuila thaephoei tui a kun vaengah khahing ni. Te vaengah a bung thung vetih a phai pim ni. Huta te a pilnam khui ah thaephoeinah la om ni.
28 But if she be not defiled, she shall not be hurt, and shall bear children.
Tedae huta te poeih uh pawt tih a cim atah anih te a hmil vetih tiingan a yom ni.
29 This is the law of jealousy. If a woman hath gone aside from her husband, and be defiled,
He tah Huta loh a va hman ah na taengphael tih a poeih uh vaengkah ham thatlainah olkhueng ni.
30 And the husband stirred up by the spirit of jealousy bring her before the Lord, and the priest do to her according to all things that are here written:
Tongpa khaw a soah thatlainah mueihla loh a pah tih a yuu taengah a thatlai akhaw a yuu te BOEIPA mikhmuh ah pai sak saeh. Te vaengah hekah olkhueng cungkuem he khosoih loh anih taengah saii pah saeh.
31 The husband shall be blameless, and she shall bear her iniquity.
Tongpa te thaesainah lamloh hmil cakhaw huta tah amah kathaesainah te phuei saeh,” a ti nah.
