< Deuteronomy 16 >
1 You are to observe the month of Abib and to celebrate the Passover to the Lord your God, because it was in the month of Abib that the Lord your God led you out of Egypt by night.
Abib thapa hah ya e thapa lah pâkuem awh nateh, ceitakhai pawi lah hno awh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Abib thapa dawkvah, BAWIPA ni Izip ram hoi karum vah nangmouh na tâcokhai awh.
2 The Passover sacrifice from your herd or flock must be offered to the Lord your God in the place where the Lord will choose to live with you.
BAWIPA Cathut ni a min o nahanelah a rawi e hmuen koe maito hoi tu naw hah na thueng vaiteh, na BAWIPA Cathut hanelah ceitakhai pawi na to han.
3 Don't eat ordinary bread with it. For seven days you are to eat bread made without yeast with it, the bread of hardship, because you had to leave Egypt in such a hurry. This way you'll remember day you left Egypt for the rest of your lives.
Nang ni Izip ram hoi na tâconae hnin hah na hringyung thung pahnim hoeh nahanelah ceitakhai pawi na to navah, tonphuene vaiyei hah na cat mahoeh. Tonphuenhoehe tie runae vaiyei hah hnin sari touh thung na ca awh han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Izip ram hoi karangpoung lah na tâco awh toe.
4 Don't have yeast anywhere in your country for seven days. Don't keep any of the meat that you sacrifice on the evening of the first day until the morning.
Hnin sari touh thung, na onae ram dawk tonphuene vaiyei awm sak hanh. Apasuek hnin tangmin vah, na thueng e sathei moi hah karuem tuettuet amom totouh na cawi sak mahoeh.
5 Don't sacrifice the Passover animal in any of the towns that the Lord your God is giving you.
Na BAWIPA Cathut ni na poe e kho longkha koe vah, ceitakhai pawi sak thainae kâ kaawm e nahoeh.
6 The Passover sacrifice must be offered by you only at the place where the Lord your God will choose to live with you. You are to do this in the evening at sunset-the same time you left Egypt.
Na BAWIPA Cathut ni a min ao nahanelah a rawi e hmuen koevah, nang teh Izip ram hoi na tâconae tueng, kanî a khup nah tangmin vah, ceitakhai pawi thuengnae hah na sak awh han.
7 Cook it and eat it in the place the Lord your God will choose. Then in the morning go back to your tents.
Na BAWIPA Cathut ni a rawi e hmuen koe hmai na pahai awh vaiteh, na ca awh hnukkhu, amom vah im bout na ban awh han.
8 Eat bread without yeast for six days, and the on the seventh day you are to have a holy meeting to honor the Lord your God. You are not to do any work.
Hnin taruk touh thung tonphuenhoehe hah na ca awh han. A hnin sari hnin teh na BAWIPA Cathut hanelah kathounge kamkhuengnae hah na sak han. Hote hnin dawk thaw na tawk awh mahoeh.
9 Count off seven weeks from when you start the grain harvest.
Canga kamtawngnae koehoi na touk vaiteh, yat sari touh aloum hnukkhu,
10 Then celebrate the Festival of Weeks to honor him the Lord your God by giving him a freewill offering, depending on just how much the Lord your God has blessed you.
na BAWIPA Cathut e hmalah na BAWIPA Cathut ni yawhawi na poe e patetlah lungthocalah hoi thueng hane hno hah na sin han.
11 You will celebrate in the Lord's presence in the place where he will choose to live with you. This includes you, your sons and daughters, your male and female slaves, and the Levites who live in your towns, as well as the foreigners, orphans, and widows among you.
Na BAWIPA Cathut ni a min ao nahanelah a rawi e hmuen dawk, na BAWIPA Cathut hanelah yat sari pawi hah na to vaiteh, na capa, na canunaw, na sanpa sannu naw, nang koe kaawm e Levihnaw, imyinnaw, lahmai naranaw pueng ni a lunghawi awh han.
12 Don't forget that you were once slaves in Egypt, and be careful to follow these regulations.
Nang teh Izip vah san lah ouk na o e hah na pouk vaiteh, phunglawknaw hah na tarawi han.
13 Celebrate the Festival of Shelters for seven days once you have finished threshing your grain and pressing your grapes.
Cakang hoi misurtui hah na pâkhueng vaiteh, hnin sari touh thung lukkareiim pawi na to han.
14 Enjoy your feast—you, your sons and daughters, your male and female slaves, and the Levites who live in your towns, as well as the foreigners, orphans, and widows among you.
Hote pawi na to navah, nama hoi na capa, na canunaw, na sanpa sannu naw, nang koe kaawm e Levihnaw, imyinnaw, lahmai naranaw na longkha thung kaawmnaw pueng ni a lunghawi awh han.
15 Celebrate this Festival for seven days to honor the Lord your God in the place he will choose, because the Lord your God will bless your whole harvest and everything you do, so you will be really happy.
BAWIPA Cathut ni a rawi e hmuen koe hnin sari touh thung na BAWIPA Cathut hanelah kathounge pawi na to han. Na BAWIPA Cathut ni na kampungnae pueng koe, thaw na tawknae pueng koe, yawhawi na poe dawkvah, lunghawinae na sak han.
16 All your men must come before the Lord your God in the place He will choose three times every year: the Festival of Bread without Yeast, the Festival of Weeks, and the Festival of Shelters. No one should come before the Lord without an offering.
Ton phuen hoeh pawitonae tueng, yat sari pawitonae tueng, lukkareiim pawitonae tueng tie naw hah, kum touh dawk vai thum touh, nangmouh tongpanaw pueng teh, na BAWIPA Cathut ni a rawi e hmuen koe a hmalah na tâco awh han. Hatnavah, Cathut hmalah apihai kuthrawng hoi na tâcawt mahoeh.
17 Each of you is to bring whatever gift you can, depending on how much the Lord your God has blessed you.
Na BAWIPA Cathut ni yawhawi na poe e patetlah tami pueng ni amamouh a coung thai e patetlah lengkaleng a sin awh han.
18 Choose judges and officials for each of your tribes in every town that the Lord your God is giving you. They must judge the people fairly.
Na BAWIPA Cathut ni yawhawi na poe e longkha kaawm e pueng dawk, lawkcengkung, bawinaw hah na onae kho tangkuem dawk na hruek awh han. Ahnimouh ni lawkceng kawinaw hah kalan lah lawk a ceng awh han.
19 Don't pervert justice or show favoritism. Don't take a bribe, for a bribe blinds the wise and twists the words of the truthful.
Nang teh phunglawk dawk hoi na phen mahoeh. Tami minhmai khet na tawn mahoeh. Tadawngnae na dâw mahoeh. Tadawngnae ni tami a lungkaang mit a dawn sak. Tami kalannaw e lawk hah a longkawi sak.
20 Always do what is right and just, so that you may go on living, occupying the land that the Lord your God is giving you.
Na BAWIPA Cathut ni na poe e ram hah nang ni na hring teh na coe nahanelah, kalan e phunglawk dawk dueng na dawn han.
21 Don't ever set up a wooden Asherah pole next to the altar you build for the Lord your God,
Na BAWIPA Cathut hanelah na sak e thuengnae khoungroe teng vah, bangpatet e Asherah thing hai na ung mahoeh.
22 and don't make for yourselves an idolatrous stone pillar, which the Lord your God hates.
Na BAWIPA Cathut ni a hmuhma e talung nama hanelah na ung mahoeh.
