Deuteronomy 21
1 If one be found slain in the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee to possess it, lying in the field, and it be not known who hath smitten him;
BOEIPA na Pathen loh nang kah a pang la m'paek khohmuen kah kohong ah aka yalh rhok te a hmuh dae anih te u loh a ngawn khaw a mingpha pawt atah,
2 then thy elders and thy judges shall come forth, and they shall measure unto the cities which are round about him that is slain.
Namah kah patong rhoek neh na laitloek rhoek te cet uh saeh lamtah rhok taeng lamkah loh khopuei duela nueh uh saeh.
3 And it shall be, that the city which is nearest unto the slain man, even the elders of that city shall take a heifer of the herd, which hath not been wrought with, and which hath not drawn in the yoke.
Te vaengah rhok neh a yoei la aka om khopuei kah khopuei patong rhoek loh saelhung khuikah hnamkun aka mawt pawt tih aka thotat pawh vaitola te lo uh saeh.
4 And the elders of that city shall bring down the heifer unto a rough valley, which may neither be plowed nor sown, and shall break the heifer's neck there in the valley.
Te phoeiah vaitola te khopuei patong rhoek loh a khuiah a thotat pawt tih a tawn pawh soklong puei la suntlak puei saeh. Te phoeiah vaito te soklong ah pahoi top uh saeh.
5 And the priests the sons of Levi shall come near — for them the LORD thy God hath chosen to minister unto Him, and to bless in the name of the LORD; and according to their word shall every controversy and every stroke be.
Te vaengah amah kah bibi ham neh BOEIPA ming dongah yoethen aka pae ham BOEIPA na Pathen loh a coelh Levi koca khosoih rhoek te thoeih uh saeh lamtah tuituknah cungkuem neh nganbokyoknah cungkuem aka om te ol khueh thil uh saeh.
6 And all the elders of that city, who are nearest unto the slain man, shall wash their hands over the heifer whose neck was broken in the valley.
Rhok neh aka yoei khopuei kah patong rhoek boeih long khaw soklong kah a ah vaito te a kut silh thil uh saeh.
7 And they shall speak and say: 'Our hands have not shed this blood, neither have our eyes seen it.
Te phoeiah doo uh saeh lamtah, “Kaimih kut ah hlang thii he long rhoe la long pawt tih kaimih mik long khaw a hmuh moenih.
8 Forgive, O LORD, Thy people Israel, whom Thou hast redeemed, and suffer not innocent blood to remain in the midst of Thy people Israel.' And the blood shall be forgiven them.
Aw BOEIPA na pilnam la na lat Israel he tholh han dawth pah. Ommongsitoe thii loh na pilnam Israel lakli la coe sak boel lamtah hlang thii khui lamkah loh amih ham khaw dawth la om saeh,” ti uh saeh.
9 So shalt thou put away the innocent blood from the midst of thee, when thou shalt do that which is right in the eyes of the LORD.
Te dongah namah khui lamkah ommongsitoe thii te namah loh khoe lamtah BOEIPA mikhmuh ah a thuem la saii.
10 When thou goest forth to battle against thine enemies, and the LORD thy God delivereth them into thy hands, and thou carriest them away captive,
Na thunkha rhoek taengah caem la na caeh vaengah anih te BOEIPA na Pathen loh na kut dongah han tloeng tih tamna la na sol mai ni.
11 and seest among the captives a woman of goodly form, and thou hast a desire unto her, and wouldest take her to thee to wife;
Te vaengah tamna khuikah huta suisak sakthen te na hmuh tih na ven coeng. Te dongah na yuu la lo laeh.
12 then thou shalt bring her home to thy house; and she shall shave her head, and pare her nails;
Na im khui la khuen. Te phoeiah a lu te vo saeh lamtah a kuttin khaw saii saeh.
13 and she shall put the raiment of her captivity from off her, and shall remain in thy house, and bewail her father and her mother a full month; and after that thou mayest go in unto her, and be her husband, and she shall be thy wife.
Na imkhui ah a om vaengah a pum dongkah a tamna himbai te pit saeh lamtah khohnin hla khat khuiah a manu a napa te rhah dae saeh. Te phoeiah anih te na kun thil tih na yuunah vaengah namah yuu la om van ni.
14 And it shall be, if thou have no delight in her, then thou shalt let her go whither she will; but thou shalt not sell her at all for money, thou shalt not deal with her as a slave, because thou hast humbled her.
Tedae anih te na ngaih pawt tih na tueih coeng atah amah hinglu la om van saeh lamtah tangka la na yoi rhoe na yoi mahpawh. Anih te na khah coeng dongah na kulup sut mai mahpawh.
15 If a man have two wives, the one beloved, and the other hated, and they have borne him children, both the beloved and the hated; and if the first-born son be hers that was hated;
Hlang pakhat te yuu panit om tih pakhat te alungnah dae pakhat te tah a hnoel. Te vaengah a lungnah a yuu long khaw, a hnoel long khaw anih ham ca a sak pah rhoi tih a hnoel kah a capa te a caming la om mai ni.
16 then it shall be, in the day that he causeth his sons to inherit that which he hath, that he may not make the son of the beloved the first-born before the son of the hated, who is the first-born;
Tedae amah taengah aka om te a ca rhoi a pheang tue a pha atah a hnoel huta capa, a caming kah mikhmuh mai ah a lungnah huta kah a capa te a caming la coeng sak boel saeh.
17 but he shall acknowledge the first-born, the son of the hated, by giving him a double portion of all that he hath; for he is the first-fruits of his strength, the right of the first-born is his.
A hnoel kah a capa caming la hmat saeh lamtah amah taengkah a dang boeih dongah a thaham rhaepnit la pae saeh. A thahuem cuek he caminghamsum kah hamsum van ni.
18 If a man have a stubborn and rebellious son, that will not hearken to the voice of his father, or the voice of his mother, and though they chasten him, will not hearken unto them;
Hlang pakhat taengah capa thinthah om tih a napa ol neh a manu ol te hnatun mueh la a koek mai ni. Anih te a toel rhoi dae te rhoi taengkah te hnatun pawh.
19 then shall his father and his mother lay hold on him, and bring him out unto the elders of his city, and unto the gate of his place;
Anih te a manu neh a napa loh mawt saeh lamtah te hmuen vongka kah khopuei patong rhoek taengla khuen saeh.
20 and they shall say unto the elders of his city: 'This our son is stubborn and rebellious, he doth not hearken to our voice; he is a glutton, and a drunkard.'
Te phoeiah a khopuei patong rhoek taengah, “Ka ca a thinthah tih ka ol a ngai mueh la a koek. Te dongah carhut yumii la om,” ti rhoi saeh.
21 And all the men of his city shall stone him with stones, that he die; so shalt thou put away the evil from the midst of thee; and all Israel shall hear, and fear.
Te vaengah anih te khopuei tongpa boeih loh lungto neh dae uh saeh lamtah duek saeh. Na khui lamkah boethae khaw te tlam te na hnawt daengah ni Israel pum loh a yaak uh vetih a rhih uh eh.
22 And if a man have committed a sin worthy of death, and he be put to death, and thou hang him on a tree;
Hlang pakhat te tholhnah kongah dueknah ham laitloeknah om tih a duek vaengah thing dongla na kuiok sak mai ni.
23 his body shall not remain all night upon the tree, but thou shalt surely bury him the same day; for he that is hanged is a reproach unto God; that thou defile not thy land which the LORD thy God giveth thee for an inheritance.
a rhok te thing dongah rhaeh sak boeh. Kuiok he Pathen kah rhunkhuennah la a om dongah amah khohnin van vaengah up rhoe up laeh. Te dongah BOEIPA na Pathen loh nang taengah rho la m'paek na khohmuen te poeih boeh.
