Deuteronomy 25
1 If there be a controversy between men, and they come unto judgment, and the judges judge them, by justifying the righteous, and condemning the wicked,
Kami hnik loe lok angaek hoi moe, lokcaekkung mah nihnik to lokcaek naah, katoeng kami to loihsak ah loe, kasae kami to danpaek ah,
2 then it shall be, if the wicked man deserve to be beaten, that the judge shall cause him to lie down, and to be beaten before his face, according to the measure of his wickedness, by number.
kasae kami to boh han krah nahaeloe, lokcaekkung mah anih to a hmaa ah anghnusak ueloe, a zaehaih kating ah bop tih.
3 Forty stripes he may give him, he shall not exceed; lest, if he should exceed, and beat him above these with many stripes, then thy brother should be dishonoured before thine eyes.
Toe qui palito pong kamthlai ah boh han om ai; kamthlai ah bop nahaeloe, nam nawkamya loe nangcae mikhnuk ah zae kami ah om tih.
4 Thou shalt not muzzle the ox when he treadeth out the corn.
Cang atit naah maitaw to tahmawh moem pae caeng hmah.
5 If brethren dwell together, and one of them die, and have no child, the wife of the dead shall not be married abroad unto one not of his kin; her husband's brother shall go in unto her, and take her to him to wife, and perform the duty of a husband's brother unto her.
Nawkamya thung ih kami maeto loe caa sah ai ah dueh ving nahaeloe, anih ih zu loe kalah kami khaeah sava sak han om ai; a sava ih amnawk mah anih to zu haih ueloe, a zu khaeah amya mah sak han koi hmuen to koepsak tih.
6 And it shall be, that the first-born that she beareth shall succeed in the name of his brother that is dead, that his name be not blotted out of Israel.
Israel thung hoiah anghmat han ai ah, a sak hmaloe ih capa nongpa loe kadueh amya ih ahmin to palawk han oh.
7 And if the man like not to take his brother's wife, then his brother's wife shall go up to the gate unto the elders, and say: 'My husband's brother refuseth to raise up unto his brother a name in Israel; he will not perform the duty of a husband's brother unto me.'
Toe amya ih zu to zu haih han koeh ai nahaeloe, amya ih zu mah vangpui thung ih kacoehtanawk khaeah caeh ueloe, Ka sava ih amnawk loe Israel kaminawk salakah amya ih ahmin ohsak poe han koeh ai; ka nuiah amya ih toksak han koeh ai, tiah thui tih.
8 Then the elders of his city shall call him, and speak unto him; and if he stand, and say: 'I like not to take her';
To naah vangpui thung ih kacoehtanawk mah anih to kawk o ueloe, anih khaeah lokthui pae o tih; toe to kami mah, Kam ya ih zu lak han ka koeh ai, tiah thui khruek nahaeloe,
9 then shall his brother's wife draw nigh unto him in the presence of the elders, and loose his shoe from off his foot, and spit in his face; and she shall answer and say: 'So shall it be done unto the man that doth not build up his brother's house.'
amya ih zu loe kacoehtanawk hmaa ah anih khaeah caeh ueloe, a khokpanai to khring pae tih, a mikhmai ah tamtui hoi pathoih ueloe, amya ih imthong sak han koeh ai kami loe, hae tiah sak han oh, tiah anih han thui pae tih.
10 And his name shall be called in Israel The house of him that had his shoe loosed.
To kami loe khokpanai khring pae ih acaeng, tiah Israel kaminawk salakah thui o tih.
11 When men strive together one with another, and the wife of the one draweth near to deliver her husband out of the hand of him that smiteth him, and putteth forth her hand, and taketh him by the secrets;
Nongpa hnetto angpan hoi naah, nongpa maeto ih zu loe bop kami ban thung hoiah a sava loihsak hanah angzoh moe, a sava kabop nongpa ih tangzat to patawn pae caeng nahaeloe,
12 then thou shalt cut off her hand, thine eye shall have no pity.
to nongpata ih ban to takroek pae pat han oh; anih to tahmen hmah.
13 Thou shalt not have in thy bag diverse weights, a great and a small.
Kangvan ai hmuen zit tahhaih kalen doeh, kathoeng doeh, pasah thungah nawnto pacaeng hmah.
14 Thou shalt not have in thy house diverse measures, a great and a small.
Hmuen tahhaih kalen maw, kathoeng maw, hnetto na im ah suem hmaek hmah.
15 A perfect and just weight shalt thou have; a perfect and just measure shalt thou have; that thy days may be long upon the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee.
Na Angraeng Sithaw mah ang paek ih prae thungah na hing lung sawk thai hanah, kakoep moe, katoeng hmuen zit tahhaih to patoh ah.
16 For all that do such things, even all that do unrighteously, are an abomination unto the LORD thy God.
To tiah amsoem ai hmuen sah kami hoi katoeng ai ah toksah kami loe, na Angraeng Sithaw hmaa ah panuet thoh.
17 Remember what Amalek did unto thee by the way as ye came forth out of Egypt;
Izip prae hoi nang zoh o naah, loklam ah Amalek kaminawk mah na nuiah sak o ih hmuennawk to pahnet o hmah,
18 how he met thee by the way, and smote the hindmost of thee, all that were enfeebled in thy rear, when thou wast faint and weary; and he feared not God.
nangcae tha na zok o sut moe, patang na khang o, Amalek kaminawk loe Sithaw zithaih tawn o ai pongah, loklam ah nangcae to angang moe, nangcae hnukbang kaminawk hoi thacak ai kaminawk to hum o.
19 Therefore it shall be, when the LORD thy God hath given thee rest from all thine enemies round about, in the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee for an inheritance to possess it, that thou shalt blot out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven; thou shalt not forget.
Na Angraeng Sithaw mah nangcae khaeah qawk ah paek ih, prae taengah kaom na misanawk boih ban thung hoiah pahlong moe, anghakhaih ang paek o naah, pahnet ving hanah, Amalek kaminawk to van tlim hoiah amrosak boih han oh; na pahnet han om ai.
