Deuteronomy 18
1 The Levitical priests, in fact the whole tribe of Levi, will not have a share in the land allotment with the other Israelites. They are to eat from the food offerings presented to the Lord—that is what they are entitled to receive.
Thempu hon hiche hi nageldoh jing diu ahi, ajeh chu Israel insung mijouse lah a Levi insung kailhah hi chenna ding gam chang lou ahiuve. Hijeh achu Thempua pang Levi mite hon Pakai, Pathen adia ki katdoh chengse hi chang diu ahi.
2 While they don't own land among the other tribes, the Lord takes care of them, as he promised.
Israel nam sunga kona gamtum neilou ahiuvin, Pakai hi amaho dinga agoulu penu ahitan, hichu aheng uva Pakai kitepna ahi.
3 The priests' share of a sacrifice of a bull or a sheep that is brought by the people is as follows. The priests are to be given the shoulder, the jaw, and the insides.
Hichengse hi mihon gancha dinga ahin choi lah a thempu ho chan ding chu ahi: bongchal ahin kelngoi hijongleh amahon adah akeng, agilpi chengse chu thempupa henga apeh lut diu ahi.
4 You are to provide them with the firstfruits of your grain, new wine, and olive oil, as well as the first wool sheared from your flock.
Nanghon jong na lou sohgao lhung masaho, lengpitwi, chang, thaotwi chule nakelngoi mul kivou masapen chu neh diu ahi.
5 For the Lord your God has chosen Levi and his descendants from all your tribes to stand before him and serve in his name forever.
Ajeh chu Pakai, Pathen in phung jouse lah a Levi insungmite hi imatih chana ama lhacha a pang dia alhen doh ahi.
6 If a Levite is convinced he should move from any Israelite town and goes to the place the Lord will choose,
Chule Israel mite chenna khopi holah achu Levi miten adeisah laiyu Pathen houna muna ahin lhen doh diu ahi.
7 then he shall be allowed to serve in the name of the Lord his God like all his fellow Levites who stand there in service before the Lord.
Levi dangho banga kigela Pakai, Pathen min pana akin bola pang jeng thei diu, chuteng Pakai angsunga natong jing Levi mite banga akin bola pang diu ahi.
8 They will all receive the same food allowances, despite him having received money from the sale of his father's property.
Ama insungmite akon thilpeh ijat um jongleh, thil ki katdoh jouse aneh khopset aneh thei diu ahi.
9 Once you enter the country the Lord your God is giving you, don't copy the offensive ways of the nations there.
Nangho Pakai, Pathen in napehnau gamsung nahin jot tenguleh, chingtheiyun hiche gamsunga namtin vaipi chonna dan thet umtah tah hokhu najui louhel diu ahi.
10 There should be no one who sacrifices their son or daughter in the fire, practices divination or fortune-telling, uses magic or sorcery,
Nangho lah akona koiman achanu ham achapa ham khat chu meiya agoa kilhaina a aman chah thei louhel ding ahi. Doithu hihen, phunsanna hihen, ipidoi mangcha hijongleh,
11 practices witchcraft, visits a medium or spiritist, or communicates with the dead. Anyone does such things offends the Lord.
buma bolna hihen, thilha akona gaobol theina hihen, mitphel doithepna chule thilha akona gaothem kiti jong khat jeng cha nalah uva kona um thei lou ding ahi.
12 It's because of these offensive things that the Lord your God is driving out the nations before you.
Hitobanga chon mihem chu Pakaiya dinga thet umtah ahi. Hijeh achu Pakai, Pathen in nangho masanga hiche lai muna cheng ho jouse anadel mang ahi.
13 You are to be innocent of such things in the presence of the Lord your God.
Chule nangho Pakai, Pathen adia mi kitah nahi teidiu ahi.
14 Even though these nations, whose land you will occupy, listen to magicians and fortune-tellers, the Lord your God forbids you to do so.
Ajeh chu hiche muna cheng mite hon doithem ho thusei angaiyun, amavang Pakai, Pathen in hitobang hoa na chon diu aphal pon ahi.
15 The Lord your God will send you a prophet like me from your people. You must listen to him.
Mose'n avelin aseikit in, Israelte lah akona Pakai, Pathen in kei bang banga thempu khat nahin tundoh peh diu ahi. Chuteng nang hon ama thu chu nangaiyuva nakhohsah cheh diu ahi.
16 Remember what you told the Lord your God at Horeb when you were all assembled there. You said, “Please don't let us go on hearing the Lord our God speak to us, or see this terrifying fire anymore! Otherwise we're going to die!”
Nanghon Sinai molchunga mipiho kikhop nikhon Pakai, Pathen henga nadei, nangai chan hiti hin naseiyun ahi. Pakai, Pathen awgin leh ama akona meikong kilah chu neijah sah kit hih hel un, ajeh chu hitobang kajah uva kamu uva kona chu keiho ka thilo jeng theiyu ahi, natiuve.
17 Then the Lord told me, “They are right in what they're saying.
Chuin Pakaiyin keima henga aseiyin, amahon asei chanu hi adih lheh jeng e, ati.
18 I'm going to send them a prophet like you from their people. I will give him my messages, and he will tell them everything I order him to say.
Chule Pakaiyin aseiyin keiman nasopite lah akona hi nang tobang khat ka tundoh ding, hiche themgaopa kam sunga chu ijakai ka thumop soh kei ding, hichea kona chu keiman ama ka thumop bang banga aman jong mite jouse athupeh son ding ahi.
19 I will deal with anyone who does not listen to my message that the prophet speaks in my name.
Koi hijongleh hiche themgaopa thusei nah sah lou auma ahileh, amapa chunga chu lhen chilna lhung ding ahi.
20 However, if any prophet claims to be delivering a message in my name that I have not ordered him to give, or speaks in the name of other gods, that prophet must be executed.”
Keima thupeh kal vala chon auma chule pathen limsem thu min pana thusei apang themgao khat tou aum ngei ngeiya ahileh, amapa chunga chu thina lhung teitei ding ahi, tin aseiye.
21 You may be wondering, “How can we be sure that a message hasn't come from the Lord?”
Hichea chu nanghon Pakai thusei ahipoi, tia lungopkaina nalung thimsung uva nanei khah uva ahileh,
22 When a prophet speaks in the Lord's name and what he says doesn't happen or come true, then that is a not a message from the Lord. The prophet has spoken with contempt for the Lord. Don't be intimidated by him.
themgao khat in thu aseiya athu seidoh aguilhunva ahilouleh adihlou tengleh, hitobang chu Pathen akon mong ahipoi ti photchetna ahi. Themgaopa chun ama macham chama asei ahin, hitobang themgao chu gin jong nagin louhel diu ahi.
