< Exodus 23 >
1 “You must not spread stories that are lies. You must not help bad people by giving evidence that's malicious.
Nangman jouthu na sei thei lou ding, muda jeh'a thet umtah hettohsah'a napan thei lou ding ahiye.
2 Don't follow the crowd in doing wrong. When you give evidence in a lawsuit, don't corrupt justice by siding with the majority.
Chule thilse bolding'a mihem chele hojong najui a najop lou hel ding, mipi nung najui louva amaho khat le khat kikah'a them achan theina diuva jong hettohsah'a napan lou ding ahiye.”
3 Don't show favoritism to poor people in their legal cases either.
Vaichaho thukitanna jeng ajong pan nalah lou hel ding, sih neina lang neina jeng jong nabol lou ding ahi.
4 If you come across your enemy's ox or donkey that has wandered off, take it back it to him.
Chule na melma khat sangan ahi loule bongchal vah mang jong nadon peh lou ding, hiche gancha chu ama heng'a nahin le kailut peh joh ding ahi.
5 If you see the donkey of someone who hates you that has fallen under its load, don't just leave it there. You must stop and help.
Nangma doumah bolpa sangan in apot apoh lal tah'a aopkhum ma ahile hichu, na dalhah jeng lou ding, sangan akitho doh theina ding'a na panhu teitei ding ahi joi.
6 You must not prevent the poor from getting justice in their lawsuits.
Vaicha thutanna'a adinmunanna konna achanding dolla thudih chu napam paipeh lou hel ding ahi.
7 Don't have anything to do with making false accusations. Don't kill the innocent or those who do right, for I won't let the guilty go unpunished.
Jouthu phot'a kinilna le kihehtona chu najam san jeng ding, themmona beija mihem chu natha lou ding, ajeh chu keiman kahenai agiloupa chu them kachan sah him him lou ding ahiye.
8 Don't accept bribes, for a bribe blinds those who can see, and undermines the evidence of the honest.
Nehguh chahguh jong nakilah thei lou ding, ajeh chu nehguh kitihi vaihomma pangpan amit asel mang jin chule adih'a pangte chu akhup athal'a alekhup jeng ahi.
9 Don't abuse foreigners living among you, since you know very well what it's like to be foreigners, for you were once foreigners in Egypt.
Kholjin mijong na suhgim lou ding, ajeh chu kholjin mihon ichanna lunggel nei uvem ti na hetauve, amaho bang chu nanngho jong Egypt gamma khol jin mi'a nanaum'u ahiye.
10 Six years you are to sow your land and harvest crops,
Kum gup sung'a phatah'a na gam sung'a ann-ga natu ding, muchi gasoh na kilokhom ding ahi.
11 but in the seventh year you are to let it rest and leave it uncultivated, so that poor people may eat what grows naturally from the field and the wild animals can finish what's left. Follow the same procedure for your vineyards and olive groves.
Kum sagi alhin teng hiche kum sung'a chu nagamsung nakicholdo sahding hiche nangma miten avaicha ho chun aneh diu, louna tong lou beh'a naki chol damsah thei ding, amahon aneh joulou aneh moh chengseo vang chu gamsa hon aneh diuva ahitai. Hiche bang bang'a chu lengpi leilai le Olive chu nabol cheh cheh diu ahi.
12 You have six days to do your work, but on the seventh day you must stop working, so that your ox and your donkey can rest, and your slaves' families can catch their breath, as well as the foreigners living among you.
Nigup sung'a hi natoh ding chan natoh ding, chule ni sagi lhinni vang le nasangan jeng jong na choldam sah ding, na bongchal ahin sangan jeng jong choldo thei ding, na sohnu chapa ahin na jin ho jong ki chol do thei diu ahi.
13 Make sure to pay attention to everything I've told you. Don't think to call on the names of other gods—you must not even mention them.
Naheng uva kasei doh hi nanit jeng jing diu, chule hichengse hi nakam sung uva jong napotdoh sah lou hel diu ahi.
14 Three times every year you are to celebrate a feast dedicated to me.
Kumkhat sung'a keima dinga kut thumvei chan nabol ding ahi.
15 You are to observe the Festival of Unleavened Bread as I instructed you. You are to eat bread without yeast for seven days at the appropriate time in the month of Abib, because that was the month you left Egypt. No one can come before me without bringing an offering.
Chol solou chang-lhah kut, keiman phat katepeh dung juiya hi ding, Abib lhasung hichu cholsolou changlhah ni sagi sung sea naneh ding hiche lhasung'a hi Egypt gamsung'a kon'a na hung doh na lha ahiye. Hijeh achu khat cha jong keima angsung'a khut goh keuva hung sung lha thei lou ding ahi.
16 You are also to observe the Festival of Harvest when you present the firstfruits of the produce from what you've sown in the fields. Lastly you are to observe the Festival of Gathering-In the Harvest at the end of the year, when you gather in the harvest of the rest of your crops from the field.
Loulaija na lhosoh ga amasapen penchu nangman lholhun kut'a ding'a na kat doh jeng ding, hi tabang ma chu lou lai pumpia na lhosoh ga nahin chop khom teng jong le kut nabol ding ahi.”
17 Every Israelite male is to come before the Lord God at these three times every year.
Kum khat sung'a namite holah'a pasal'a kai lhah kiti phot chu Pakai Pathen keima ansung'a thumvei hung ki lah cheh diu ahi.”
18 You must not offer the blood of my sacrifices together with anything that contains yeast, and the fat from the offerings presented at my festival must not be left until morning.
Keima angsung'a kilhaina gancha kithat chu cholsosa changlhah jaona nahin totha thei lou ding, kaheng'a kilhaina sathao jeng jong khovah geija nakoi den lou ding ahi.
19 Bring the best firstfruits of your crops to the house of the Lord your God. Don't cook a young goat in its mother's milk.
Na leiset ga soh lah'a gamasa pen pen chu na Pakai na Pathen heng'a na hin poh lut masat pen ding, kelngoi sakithat jeng jong chu api noitwi mangcha'a nahon lou ding ahi.
20 Look, I'm sending an angel ahead of you to protect you on the way and to take you to the place I've prepared for you.
Ven! Na chena channa nangma na ventup ding le na lhon pijing ding'in namasang lama vantil khat ka sol peh in ahi.”
21 Make sure you pay attention to him and do what he says. Don't oppose him, because he won't forgive rebellion, for he carries my authority.
Vantil khu jabol'in lang, athu napal keh thei louding, ama doumah thei himhim nabol lou ding ahiye, ajeh chu aman nasuhkhel channu ngaidam intin, ajeh chu amasung'a khu keima min um jeng'a ahi.
22 However, if you listen to him carefully, and do everything that I tell you, then I will be an enemy to your enemies and I will fight those who fight against you.
Aman aseichan lunglut tah'a nangai jing ding, keiman kasei chan nabol'a ahile, namel mate dia melma'a kapan ding, nadoute ding'a adouva pang ding kahi, ati.
23 For my angel will go ahead of you and take you into the land of the Amorites, Hittites, Perizzites, Canaanites, Hivites, and Jebusites, and I will wipe them out.
Ka Vantil chu namasang lama lamkai jing ding, Amor mite, Hit mite, Periz mite, Canaan mite, Hivi mite, chule Jebus mite jouse abonchaova nahin pui teng leh keima tah in abonchauva ka suhmang hel jeng ding ahi, ati.
24 You must not bow down to their gods or worship them or follow their pagan practices. No, you must demolish their idols and smash their sacred pillars into pieces.
Chule mihem in asem thu milim doi pathen ho masang kitia naboh khup lou ding, hicheho ding'a jong chu na kisahlal louhel ding, anatoh bang bang uva jong ima natoh thei lou ding aboncha na phuhlhuh ding, a songkhom tincheng jong na lekhup jeng ding ahiye.
25 You are to worship the Lord your God, and he will bless your food and water. I will make sure none of you fall sick.
Na boncha uva na Pakai Na Pathen nahou uva ama kin jeng na bol diu ahi.” Na boncha uva na Pakai na Pathen kin jeng a na kisah lel diu, amatah in na changlhah neh diu le na twidon ding jing ujong phatthei aboh ding, chu teng keiman na jalah uva konna phatthei nasa tah ka hin boh ding ahi, ati.”
26 No woman will have a miscarriage or be without children. I will make sure you live long lives.
Nangma gamsung achu koima aching kal val jong um thei lou ding, ama vang nangma hinkho chu ka suh bukim sel joh ding ahi.
27 I will send terror about me ahead of you which will throw every nation you meet into panic. I will make all your enemies turn and run away.
Na masang tinna mihem ten aki chat thei chan ka ma sol peh ding, kidoupi ding'a nahin tupchan lungsung kasuh mol peh jing ding, chuteng nangma nahin doute jamcheh diu nangma nung lam jeng'a bou khodah diu ahi.
28 I will send hornets ahead of you to drive out before you the Hivites and Canaanites and Hittites.
Na masang'a khoi-ngel te kalha masat peh ding, Hivi mite, Canaan mite, Hit mie abonchauva khoingel ten a delmang hel diu ahi.
29 I will not drive them out in just one year, because the land would become desolate and you would have to deal with increased numbers of wild animals.
Na masang'a vang amahochu kumkhat sung'a kadel cheh lou ding ahi, ajeh chu gamsung ahomkeu va aum khah le gamsa hungpung lha jeng ding gamsa ten nagma nahin dou khah diuva ahi.
30 Bit by bit I will drive them out ahead of you, until there are enough of you to take possession of the land.
Nangma na hung pun be jing ding, chuteng amaho khu aloiloija ka del cheh ding ahiuve, ati.
31 I will fix your borders from the Red Sea to the Sea of the Philistines, and from the desert to the Euphrates River. I will hand the inhabitants of the land over to you, and you will drive them out.
Na gam gi chu twisan dung len aki pat Palistinete twikhanglen chan hop'a ka kaipeh ding, gamang lah akipat Euphrates vadung channa kakai peh ding nahiye, ajeh chu hiche gamsung ana lo jouse keiman nangho khut a kapeh doh ding, amaho chu nangman jong nadelcheh jeng diu ahiye, ati.
32 You must not make any agreement with them or with their gods.
Amite jouse lah hihen a semthu uva pathen hijong le kitepna neocha jong nanei theilou ding ahi.
33 They must not be allowed to stay in your land, otherwise they will lead you to sin against me. For if you worship their gods, they will definitely become a trap for you.”
Amaho jouse khu khat jeng cha jong na gamsung'a cheng thei loudiu ahi, ahinlah amaho pathen lim sem thuho kin nabol khah ngai ngaiya ahile vang, hichea chu nasatah'a nangma na kipel lhuh ding ahi, ati.
