Deuteronomy 8
1 You must take care to follow every commandment I am giving you today, so that you may live and have many descendants, and go in and take over the country the Lord promised to give to your fore fathers.
Tihninah kailoh nang kang uen olpaek boeih he vai hamla ngaithuenuh. Te daengahni BOEIPAloh na parhoek taengaha caeng khohmuen ah na hing vaengahna pinguh vetihna kunuh vaengah khaw na pang uh eh.
2 Remember how for these forty years the Lord your God has led you all the way through the desert, humbling you and testing you in order to find out what you were really thinking, and whether or not you would keep his commandments.
A olpaekte a olpaek bangla na thinko ah ngaithuen neh ngaithuen pawt khaw ming ham a ngaih tih nang phaep ham neh noemcai ham kum likip khuiah BOEIPA na Pathenloh Khosoek longpuei ah nang n'caeh puei boeih te poek lah.
3 He humbled you, and when you were hungry he gave you manna to eat, which nobody, including you and your forefathers, had ever had before This was in order to make it clear to you that human beings do not live by only eating bread, but by every word that comes from the mouth of the Lord.
Nang m'phaep vaengah n'lamlum sak ngawn dae namah loh na ming mueh neh na pa rhoek loh aminguh mueh manna te nang n'cah. Te dongah hlang he buh bueng neh hing pawt tih BOEIPA ka lamkah aka thoeng sarhui dongahni hlanga hing tila nang m'ming sak.
4 During these forty years your clothing didn't wear out and your feet didn't swell up.
Nang dong lamkah na himbai khaw hmawn pawt tih kum likip khuiah na kho khaw phat pawh.
5 So you should realize that just as a parent disciplines their child, so the Lord your God disciplines you.
Te dongah hlangloh a caa toel bangla BOEIPA na Pathenloh nang n'toel te na thinko neh ming lah.
6 That's why you have to keep the commandments of the Lord your God, following his ways and respecting him.
Te dongah longpuei ah pongpa ham neh amah rhih ham tah BOEIPA na Pathen kah olpaek te ngaithuen lah.
7 For the Lord your God is taking you to a good country. It's a land of streams and pools and springs that flow through the valleys and down the hills;
Kolbawn tlang ah soklong kah tuiphuet tui neh tuidungloh a long thil khohmuen, aka then khohmuen,
8 It's a land that produces wheat, barley, vines, fig trees, pomegranates, olive oil and honey.
cang, cangtun, misur, thaibu neh tale kho, olive situi neh khoitui kho la BOEIPA na Pathenloh nang n'khuencoeng.
9 It's a land where you won't run out of food, where you will have everything you need; a land whose rocks contain iron ore and whose hills can be mined for copper.
Tekah khohmuen ah tah buh dongah khaw sihtaehnah nehna ca pawt vetih, a khuiah pakhat khaw m'vaitah mahpawh. Khohmuen kah lungto dongah thicung neh tlang dongah rhohum khaw na dae thai.
10 When you eat and are full, make sure you thank the Lord your God for the good land that he's given you.
Tedaena caak tihna hah vaengah nang taengah khohmuen then neh aka phaeng BOEIPA na Pathen uemuh.
11 Make sure you don't forget the Lord your God by disobeying his commandments and rules and regulations that I'm giving you today.
Namah te ngaithuen, BOEIPA na Pathen tena hnilh ve. Tihninah kailoh nang kan uen olpaek, laitloeknah neh a khosing hena ngaithuen pawt ve ne.
12 For when you eat and are full, when you build beautiful houses to live in,
Na caak tihna hah vaengah, im thenna sak tihna om vaengah,
13 and when your herds and flocks grow larger, and your silver and gold accumulates, and all your possessions increase,
na saelhung neh na boivaloh ping tih, cak neh suiloh nang ham pung tiha cungkuemloh nang hama pungtai vaengah,
14 then you will become proud, and you will forget the Lord your God who led you out of Egypt, out of the prison-house of slavery.
na thinkoloh pomsanguh vetih sal imkhui Egypt kho lamkah nangaka khuen BOEIPA na Pathen tena hnilh ve ne.
15 He guided you through the immense and terrifying desert with its poisonous snakes and scorpions—a dried up, waterless land. He brought water for you out of a flint rock.
Khosoek duppuei neh rhih om minyuk rhul neh saelkhui ta-ai khuiah nang m'mawt tih tui aka om mueh tuihang ah pataeng hmailung lungpangkhui lamkah tuite nang hamla hang khuen.
16 He fed you in the desert with manna that your forefathers had never known, humbling you and testing you, so that eventually you would do well in the future.
Khosoek ah na pa rhoek loh a minguh mueh mannate nang n'cahtih na hmailong ah khophoengpha sak ham nang m'phaep tih n'noemcai.
17 You might think to yourselves, “I became rich through all my hard work.”
Te dongah na thinko khuiah, 'Khuehtawn he kamah thadueng, kamah ban thaaloh kamah hama saii,’ na ti ve.
18 But remember it's the Lord your God who gives you the ability to become rich, in order to fulfill his agreement he promised to your forefathers that still exists today.
Tedae tihnin kah bangla na parhoek taengaha caeng paipite cak sak tih khuehtawn dang sak ham nang taengah thaduengaka pae BOEIPA na Pathen amah te poek.
19 If you ever forget the Lord your God, and run after other gods, worshiping and bowing down to them, I assure you right now that you will definitely die!
BOEIPA na Pathen tena hnilh la na hnilh tih pathen tloe hnukahna caeh atah, amih taengah tho na thueng atah, amih tena bakop thil khohnin van vaengah na milh rhoe na milh hamni nang taengah ka laipai.
20 In the same way the Lord destroyed the nations as you advanced, you will also die if you don't obey the Lord your God.
Na mikhmuh ah BOEIPAloh namtom rhoek a milh sak bangla BOEIPA na Pathen ol tena ya pawt vetihna milh uh van ve.
