< Deuteronomy 26 >

1 Once you've entered the country that the Lord your God is giving you to own, and you take it over and settle there,
BOEIPA na Pathen loh nang taengah rho la m'paek khohmuen te na kun thil tih na pang phoeikah kho na sak vaengah he tlam he om saeh.
2 take some of the firstfruits of all your crops produced by the land that the Lord your God is giving you and place them in a basket. Then go to the place the Lord your God will choose to live with you,
BOEIPA na Pathen loh nang m'paek na khohmuen lamkah diklai thaihtae boeih khuiah thaihcuek te lo lamtah khuen. Te vaengah vaihang dongah khueh lamtah a ming phuk thil ham BOEIPA na Pathen loh a coelh hmuen la cet.
3 and tell the priest in charge at the time, “Today I declare to the Lord your God that I now live in the country that the Lord promised our forefathers to give us.”
Te phoeiah amah khohnin vaengkah khosoih la aka om te paan lamtah, “Mamih taengah paek hamla BOEIPA loh a pa rhoek taengah a toemngam sut khohmuen te ka kun thil coeng dongah tihnin ah BOEIPA na Pathen taengla ka puen coeng,” ti nah.
4 The priest will take the basket from you and place it in front of the altar of the Lord your God.
Te vaengah na kut dongkah vaihang te khosoih loh doe saeh lamtah BOEIPA na Pathen kah hmueihtuk hmai ah tloeng saeh.
5 Then this is what you are to publicly declare before the Lord your God, “My father was a Aramean who moved from place to place. There were only a few of them when he and his family went to live in Egypt. But they became a large and powerful nation.
Te phoeiah doo lamtah BOEIPA na Pathen kah mikhmuh ah, “A pa Arammi te milh tih Egypt la a suntlak vaengah hlang sii la bakuep sut. Tedae pilnu boeiping neh namtu len la pahoi om coeng.
6 But the Egyptians treated us very badly, oppressing us and forcing us to do hard labor.
Tedae Egypt he kaimih soah thae uh. Kaimih he m'phaep uh tih kaimih soah thohtatnah neh mangkhak la n'nan uh.
7 We cried out for help to the Lord, the God of our forefathers; and the Lord answered us as he saw how much we were suffering, forced to work so hard in such cruelty.
Te dongah a pa rhoek kah BOEIPA Pathen taengla ka pang uh. Kaimih ol te BOEIPA loh a yaak tih kaimih pum dongkah phacipphabaem, thakthaenah neh hnaemtaeknah te a hmuh.
8 The Lord led us out of Egypt with his great power and incredible strength and terrifying actions, signs and miracles.
Te dongah BOEIPA loh tlungluen kut neh kaimih he Egypt lamkah ng'khuen. A ban te khaw rhimomnah neh mat a phuel tih miknoek neh kopoekrhai te a saii.
9 He brought us here and gave us this country, a land flowing with milk and honey.
Te phoeiah hekah hmuen la ng'khuen tih suktui neh khoitui aka long khohmuen he mamih m'paek.
10 Look, Lord! I have brought you the firstfruits of the land that you have given me.” You shall place the basket before the Lord your God and bow down in worship before him.
Tahae atah BOEIPA namah loh kai nan paek khohmuen thaihtae thaihcuek kang khuen coeng he,” ti nah lamtah BOEIPA na Pathen mikhmuh ah tloeng pah. Te phoeiah BOEIPA na Pathen kah a mikhmuh ah bakop pah.
11 Then you, the Levites, and the foreigners who live with you are to celebrate all the good things the Lord your God has given to you and your family.
BOEIPA na Pathen loh nang m'paek a then cungkuem dongah namah imkhui neh namah khaw, namah khui kah Levi neh yinlai long khaw na kohoe sakuh.
12 Once you've finished storing up a tenth of all your crops in the third year, (the year of the tithe), you shall give it to the Levites, the foreigners, the orphans, and the widows, so they will have enough to eat in your towns.
A kum thum khuikah na cangvuei cangthaih parha pakhat boeih na paek te na khah coeng phoeiah kum khat kah parha pakhat te tah Levi, yinlai, cadah neh nuhmai taengah pae lamtah na vongka khuiah kodam la ca uh saeh.
13 Then you are to make this declaration in the presence of the Lord your God: “I have brought the holy tithe and I have given it to the Levite, the foreigners, the orphans, and the widows as you have ordered me to do. I have not broken or forgotten your commandments.
Te vaengah BOEIPA na Pathen mikhmuh ah, “Na olpaek aka om boeih vanbangla Im lamkah buhcim te ka rhoe tih Levi neh yinlai khaw, cadah neh nuhmai taengah ka paek coeng. Na olpaek kai nan uen te ka poe pawt tih ka hnilh moenih.
14 I have not eaten any of the holy tithe while in mourning, or taken any of it while I was unclean, or used any of it as an offering for the dead. I have obeyed the Lord my God. I have done everything you ordered me to do.
Te lamkah te boethae la ka ca pawt tih te lamloh rhalawt la n'dom moenih. Te dongah te lamkah te a duek la ka paek moenih. Ka Pathen BOEIPA ol te ka ngai dongah kai nan uen te a cungkuem la ka saii.
15 Please look down from your home in heaven, and bless your people the Israelites and the country you have given us as you promised our fathers—a land flowing with milk and honey.”
Vaan na hmuencim khuirhung lamloh dan lamtah na pilnam Israel neh a pa rhoek taengkah na toemngam bangla kaimih taengah nan paek khohmuen suktui neh khoitui aka long khohmuen he yoethen pae lah,” ti nah.
16 Today the Lord your God orders you to carry out these rules and regulations. Make sure you follow them with all your mind and with all your being.
He rhoek kah oltlueh neh laitloeknah he tahae khohnin ah na vai ham ni BOEIPA na Pathen loh nang ng'uen. Te dongah ngaithuen lamtah na thinko boeih, na hinglu boeih nen khaw vai.
17 Today you have publicly declared that the Lord is your God and that you will follow his ways, keep rules and commandments and regulations, and obey what he says.
Tihnin ah BOEIPA loh nang taengah Pathen la a om ham neh a longpuei ah pongpa ham khaw, a oltlueh, a olpaek neh a laitloeknah ngaithuen ham neh a ol hnatun ham khaw na thui ni.
18 Today the Lord has announced that you are a special people who belong to him as he promised. He has announced that you are to keep all his commandments.
Nang taengkah a thui vanbangla tihnin ah amah kah pilnam lungthen la om sak ham neh a olpaek rhoek te boeih ngaithuen sak ham,
19 He has announced that he will give you greater praise and reputation and honor than any other nation he has made. He has announced that you will be a holy people to the Lord your God, as he promised.
Koehnah, ming then neh boeimang dongah khaw a saii namtom rhoek boeih soah a sang la khueh ham khaw, a thui bangla BOEIPA na Pathen kah pilnam cim la om sak ham BOEIPA loh nang n'ti nah coeng.
