Deuteronomy 23
1 No man whose genitals have been damaged or cut off is allowed to enter the Lord's sanctuary.
A boengha dongah aka hi khaw, yang ngun khaw BOEIPA kah hlangping taengah kun boel saeh.
2 No one of mixed race is allowed to enter the Lord's sanctuary, and none of his descendants may do so either, up to the tenth generation.
Halhca khaw BOEIPA kah hlangping taengah kun boel saeh. A khong parha due khaw BOEIPA kah hlangping taengah anih te kun boel saeh.
3 No Ammonite or Moabite or any of their descendants are allowed to enter the Lord's sanctuary, up to the tenth generation.

4 For they did not come to meet you with food and water on your journey from Egypt, and they hired Balaam, son of Beor, from Pethor in Mesopotamia, to curse you.
Egypt lamkah na lo vaengkah longpueng ah tui neh buh neh nang n'doeuh pawt dongah ol te ana om coeng. Te vaengah nang thaephoei thil ham Aramnaharaim Pethor lamkah Beor capa Balaam tea paangcoeng.
5 But the Lord your God refused to listen to Balaam. The Lord your God turned what was meant to be a curse into a blessing for you because the Lord your God loves you.
Tedae Balaam ol hnatun hamte BOEIPA na Pathenloh a huem moenih. BOEIPA na Pathenloh nang n'lungnah dongah BOEIPA na Pathenloh rhunkhuennah te nang ham yoethennah laa maelh.
6 Don't arrange a peace treaty with them or help them out as long as you live.

7 Don't look down on an Edomite, for they are your relatives. Don't look down on an Egyptian either, because you lived as foreigners in their country.
Edom he tuei boeh, anih tah na manuca ni. A kho ah yinlai la na om coeng dae Egypt loh nang n'tuei moenih.
8 The third generation of their children are allowed to enter the Lord's sanctuary.
Anih kah caa sak te a khong thum due khaw BOEIPA kah hlangping taengah kun uh van saeh.
9 When you are in an army camp during a war with your enemies, make sure you avoid anything wrong.
Na thunkha taengah lambong la na khoong mai cakhawa thae hno boeih te tah tuem.
10 Any man there who becomes unclean because of a release of semen must leave the camp and remain outside.
Khoyin kah tamtah lamloh cuemcaih la aka om pawh hlangni na khuiaha om atah rhaehhmuen vongvoel la cet saeh lamtah lambong lakli la kun boel saeh.
11 Towards the end of the day he must wash himself with water, and at sunset he may return to the camp.
Tedae ana om saeh lamtah hlaema pha vaengah tui neh sil saeh. Khomika tlak vaengah rhaehhmuen khui la kun saeh.
12 Choose a place outside the camp to be used as a toilet.
Rhaehhmuen vongvoel ah namah hama hmuen pakhat om saeh lamtah tekah vongvoel hmuen lam ni yunpham na thak eh.
13 You need to have a spade as part of your equipment so that you can dig a hole, and then when you're finished you can cover up your excrement.
Te vaengah hlingcongte namah ham na kutpom la om saeh. Poeng la na ngol van vaengah te nente too lamtahna mael vaengah na natcaeh te vuei.
14 The Lord your God is present with you in your camp to keep you safe and to defeat your enemies. Your camp must be kept holy, because if he sees anything unclean among you and he will leave you.

15 Don't send a slave back to their master if they have come to you for protection.
A boei taeng lamloh nang taenglaaka huuluh sal te a boei taengla koep pae boeh.
16 Let the slave live in your country wherever they want, in whatever town they want. Don't mistreat them.

17 No Israelite women or men are to be cult prostitutes.
Israel iola rhoek khui lamloh hlanghalh om boel saeh lamtah Israel cakhui lamkah long khaw hlanghalh om boel saeh.
18 Don't bring into the house of the Lord your God any money from a prostitute, whether a woman or a man, using it to fulfill a promise to the Lord, for both are offensive to the Lord your God.
Olcaeng khat khat dongah pumyoih paang neh ui phu he BOEIPA na Pathen im la khuen boeh. Te rhoite BOEIPA na Pathenkaha tueilaehkoi ni.
19 Don't charge a fellow Israelite interest on money, food, or any other kind of loan.
Hno cungkuem dongah a casaina bawn vaengah tangkakaha casai khaw, caakkaha casai khaw na manuca taengah tah bawn boeh.
20 You may charge a foreigner interest, but not an Israelite, so that the Lord your God may bless you in everything you do in the country that you are going in to occupy.

21 If you make a promise to the Lord your God, don't be slow in keeping it, because he will definitely demand that you fulfill it and you will be guilty of sin if you don't.
BOEIPA na Pathen taengah olcaeng neh na caeng coeng atahna paek hamte uelh boeh. Namah te BOEIPA na Pathen loh n'cae n'cae vetih namah soah tholhnah la om ve.
22 If you don't make such promises then you won't be guilty of sin.
Tedae caeng ham tena rhael atah na soah tholhnah khaw om van mahpawh.
23 But make sure to carry out what you've said to the Lord your God, because it was you who freely chose to make such a promise.
Na hmuilai lamkah aka thoengte ngaithuen lamtah na ka neh kothoh la na thuitih BOEIPA na Pathen taengahna caeng bangla saii.
24 When you walk through your neighbor's vineyard, you can eat as many grapes as you want, but you must not collect any to take with you.

25 When you walk through your neighbor's grainfield, you may pick the ears of grain with your hand, but you must not use a sickle to harvest it.
