Deuteronomy 23
1 No man whose genitals have been damaged or cut off is allowed to enter the Lord's sanctuary.
Tuenla hoehpawiteh, tongpa e puengcang tâtueng lah kaawm e teh BAWIPA e tamihu dawk kâen mahoeh.
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.
Cataca teh, BAWIPA e tamihu dawk kâen mahoeh. Se hra totouh kâen mahoeh.
3 No Ammonite or Moabite or any of their descendants are allowed to enter the Lord's sanctuary, up to the tenth generation.
Amon miphun hoi Moab miphun hai BAWIPA e tamihu dawk kâen mahoeh. Se hra totouh kâen mahoeh.
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.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, nangmouh ni Izip ram hoi na tâco awh navah, ahnimouh ni vaiyei hoi tui a sin awh teh na dawn awh hoeh. Nangmouh thoebo sak hanelah, Mesopotamia ram, Pethor kho e Beor capa Balaam hah a hlai awh.
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.
Hatei, nange BAWIPA Cathut ni Balaam e lawk tarawi pouh hoeh. Nang na pahren dawkvah, thoebonae hah yawhawinae lah a kâthungsak.
6 Don't arrange a peace treaty with them or help them out as long as you live.
Nang teh ahnimae bawirengnae hoi a hnopai na hringyung thung na khen mahoeh.
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 miphunnaw hah, na pahnawt awh mahoeh. Ahni teh nange hmaunawngha lah ao. Izipnaw hai na pahnawt mahoeh. Ahnimae ram dawk san lah ouk na o boi toe.
8 The third generation of their children are allowed to enter the Lord's sanctuary.
Ahnimae catoun teh se thum touh hnukkhu BAWIPA e tamihu dawk a kâen thainae kâ ao.
9 When you are in an army camp during a war with your enemies, make sure you avoid anything wrong.
Taran tuknae koe na kamthaw nah, kamsoumhoehe hno pueng rounh.
10 Any man there who becomes unclean because of a release of semen must leave the camp and remain outside.
Nangmouh thung dawk tami bangpatet hai amae a tâco dawk thounghoehnae awm pawiteh, roenae alawilah a tâco han. Roenae thung kâen mahoeh.
11 Towards the end of the day he must wash himself with water, and at sunset he may return to the camp.
Tangminlasa a pha toteh tui hoi a pâsu han. Kanî a khup torei roenae thung bout a kâen han.
12 Choose a place outside the camp to be used as a toilet.
Vaipuen ceinae teh roenae alawilah na ta awh han. Hote hmuen koe alawilah na cei awh han.
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.
Na hnopainaw dawk sumtaboung na tawn han. Nang ni a alawilah na tahung toteh, hot hoi tangkawm na tai vaiteh, na kamlang sin vaiteh, na vaipuen hah na pakawp han.
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.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, nange BAWIPA Cathut ni nang hah na rungngang vaiteh, na tarannaw hah nang koe na poe nahanelah, roenae thung a kâhlai toe. Hatdawkvah, BAWIPA teh nang koe a tho navah, nangmouh koe kathounghoehe hah hmawt vaiteh, nangmouh koehoi a kamlang hoeh nahanelah, roenae teh a thoung han.
15 Don't send a slave back to their master if they have come to you for protection.
A bawipa koehoi ka yawng niteh, nang koe ka tho e san teh a bawipa koe na ban sak mahoeh.
16 Let the slave live in your country wherever they want, in whatever town they want. Don't mistreat them.
Nangmouh koe kho a sak thai nahan a ngai poung e hmuen a rawi vaiteh, ao van han. Na pacekpahlek mahoeh.
17 No Israelite women or men are to be cult prostitutes.
Isarel napuinaw thung takkâyawt e awm hanh naseh. Napuitongpanaw awm hanh naseh.
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.
Takkâyonae phu hoi ui phu hah na BAWIPA Cathut e im dawk poe hanelah na sin mahoeh. Hot patetlah e hno teh, na BAWIPA Cathut hanelah panuettho e lah ao.
19 Don't charge a fellow Israelite interest on money, food, or any other kind of loan.
Na hmaunawngha koe apung la hanelah, tangka, rawca, apung la thai e hnopai pueng na cawi mahoeh.
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.
Jentelnaw koe apung la hanelah na cawi sak awh han. Na cei awh teh na coe awh hane ram, na BAWIPA Cathut ni yawhawi na poe awh nahanelah, na hmaunawngha koe apung la hanelah na cawi sak awh mahoeh.
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.
Nange BAWIPA Cathut koe lawk na kam pawiteh, na kam e patetlah sak laipalah awm hanh. Nange BAWIPA Cathut ni atangcalah, a hei han. Na sak laipalah na awm pawiteh, nang koe a yonae a pha han.
22 If you don't make such promises then you won't be guilty of sin.
Hatei, lawk na kam hoehpawiteh, yon mahoeh.
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 pahni dawk hoi ka tâcawt e lawk hah na kâhruetcuet han. Na BAWIPA Cathut koe nama lungtho lahoi na kam e patetlah na sak han.
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.
Nang teh, na imri e misur takha koe na kâen navah, misur paw na ngai totouh na ca han, hatei, na yawngya dawk hoi na phawt pouh mahoeh.
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.
Na imri e laikawk na cei navah, na kut hoi cavui hah na pahroe thai. Hatei, na imri e cavui hah tangkoun hoi na ca mahoeh.
