< Deuteronomy 9 >

1 HEAR, O Israel: Thou art to pass over Jordan this day, to go in to possess nations greater and mightier than thyself, cities great and fenced up to heaven,
Oe Isarelnaw thai awh haw. Nangmouh hlak a thakasai e miphun hai thoseh, kalvan kadeng e rapan hoi ka kawi e khopuinaw hai thoseh,
2 A people great and tall, the children of the Anakims, whom thou knowest, and of whom thou hast heard say, Who can stand before the children of Anak!
Anakim miphun hmalah bangtelah vai kangdue thai tie lawk na thai teh, na panue e Anakim miphun tie kalenpounge miphun hai thoseh, tuk nateh lawp hanelah atu Jordan tui raka tawmlei toe.
3 Understand therefore this day, that the Lord thy God is he which goeth over before thee; as a consuming fire he shall destroy them, and he shall bring them down before thy face: so shalt thou drive them out, and destroy them quickly, as the Lord hath said unto thee.
Hatdawkvah, na BAWIPA Cathut ni na hmalah a cei teh, ka kang e hmai patetlah ao teh, ahnimouh a raphoe vaiteh, na hmaitung vah, a tabo han tie hah na lungkuep awh. Cathut ni a dei e patetlah nang ni ahnimouh na pâlei awh vaiteh karang poung lah na raphoe awh han.
4 Speak not thou in thine heart, after that the Lord thy God hath cast them out from before thee, saying, For my righteousness the Lord hath brought me in to possess this land: but for the wickedness of these nations the Lord doth drive them out from before thee.
BAWIPA na Cathut ni ahnimouh nang koehoi a pâlei hnukkhu, nang ni kaie lannae dawk doeh BAWIPA ni hete ram ka kut dawk na poe telah na pouk payon vaih. Hote miphunnaw hawihoeh e dawk BAWIPA ni ka hmaitung hoi a pâlei telah pouk awh.
5 Not for thy righteousness, or for the uprightness of thine heart, dost thou go to possess their land: but for the wickedness of these nations the Lord thy God doth drive them out from before thee, and that he may perform the word which the Lord sware unto thy fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
Na sak awh e hnokahawi dawk hai thoseh, lannae dawk hoi hai thoseh, hote ram a coe awh hane nahoeh. Hete miphunnaw hawihoeh dawk hoi thoseh, BAWIPA ni na pa Abraham, Isak, Jakop koe lawkkam e lawk hah, a caksak nahan na Cathut ni ahnimouh na hmalah hoi a pâlei e doeh.
6 Understand therefore, that the Lord thy God giveth thee not this good land to possess it for thy righteousness; for thou art a stiffnecked people.
Hatdawkvah, na BAWIPA ni nama e na hawinae dawk hoi, kahawipoung e ram na poe e nahoeh, nang teh na lahuen ka cak e miphun doeh.
7 Remember, and forget not, how thou provokedst the Lord thy God to wrath in the wilderness: from the day that thou didst depart out of the land of Egypt, until ye came unto this place, ye have been rebellious against the Lord.
Nang ni kahrawngum vah BAWIPA lung na khuek sak e hah, pahnim hanh. Izip ram hoi na tâco pasuek nah, hete hmuen koe na pha a totouh, BAWIPA koe taran lah na thaw awh.
8 Also in Horeb ye provoked the Lord to wrath, so that the Lord was angry with you to have destroyed you.
Horeb vah BAWIPA a lung na khuek sak awh teh, nangmouh raphoe hane totouh, BAWIPA hah a lungkhuek.
9 When I was gone up into the mount to receive the tables of stone, even the tables of the covenant which the Lord made with you, then I abode in the mount forty days and forty nights, I neither did eat bread nor drink water:
BAWIPA hoi lawkkamnae thutnae talung, lungphen la hanelah, mon lah ka luen navah, hnin 40 touh thung vaiyei hoi tui ka catnet laipalah, mon vah ka o.
10 And the Lord delivered unto me two tables of stone written with the finger of God; and on them was written according to all the words, which the Lord spake with you in the mount out of the midst of the fire in the day of the assembly.
BAWIPA Cathut ni lungphen kahni touh Cathut e kut hoi thut e na poe. Na kamkhueng hnin vah, mon som hmai dawk hoi a dei e lawknaw ao.
11 And it came to pass at the end of forty days and forty nights, that the Lord gave me the two tables of stone, even the tables of the covenant.
Ahnin 40 arum 40 akuep navah hote lawkkam lungphen kahni touh e teh, BAWIPA Cathut ni kai koe na poe.
12 And the Lord said unto me, Arise, get thee down quickly from hence; for thy people which thou hast brought forth out of Egypt have corrupted themselves; they are quickly turned aside out of the way which I commanded them; they have made them a molten image.
Hahoi BAWIPA ni Thaw nateh karang cathuk leih. Izip ram hoi na tâcokhai e taminaw a rawk awh toe, tarawi hane ka poe e lamthung a phen awh toe. Kutsak meikapawk doeh a bawk awh toe.
13 Furthermore the Lord spake unto me, saying, I have seen this people, and, behold, it is a stiffnecked people:
BAWIPA ni, hete miphunnaw ka khet nah, a lahuen mangkhak e miphunnaw doeh.
14 Let me alone, that I may destroy them, and blot out their name from under heaven: and I will make of thee a nation mightier and greater than they.
Ka madueng na awm sak awh. Ahnimouh kai ni ka raphoe han. A min hai kalvan rahim vah ka raphoe han. Nang teh ahnimouh hlak tha na sai sak vaiteh, miphun ka pungdaw sak han telah a ti.
15 So I turned and came down from the mount, and the mount burned with fire: and the two tables of the covenant were in my two hands.
Hatnavah lawkkam talung kahni touh ka sin teh, ka kamlang teh hmai ka kang e mon dawk hoi ka kum.
16 And I looked, and, behold, ye had sinned against the Lord your God, and had made you a molten calf: ye had turned aside quickly out of the way which the Lord had commanded you.
Nangmouh ni, BAWIPA Cathut koe na yon awh teh, maito meikaphawk hlun awh teh, Cathut ni lawk na poe e lamthung karang poung lah, na phen awh toe tie ka hmu navah,
17 And I took the two tables, and cast them out of my two hands, and brake them before your eyes.
Kut roi hoi ka patuep e lungphen, kahni touh e hah nangmae hmaitung vah ka raphei.
18 And I fell down before the Lord, as at the first, forty days and forty nights: I did neither eat bread, nor drink water, because of all your sins which ye sinned, in doing wickedly in the sight of the Lord, to provoke him to anger.
Nangmouh ni, BAWIPA lung na khuek sak nahanelah, a hmalah yonnae na sak awh e yon pueng dawkvah, yampa e patetlah BAWIPA hmalah ka tabo teh, hnin 40 rum 40 touh vaiyei hoi tui catnet laipalah ka o.
19 For I was afraid of the anger and hot displeasure, wherewith the Lord was wroth against you to destroy you. But the Lord hearkened unto me at that time also.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA ni nangmouh na raphoe hanlah, puenghoi lungkhueknae a tâco sak e kai ni ka taki. Hatnavah BAWIPA ni kaie ka lawk bout na thai pouh.
20 And the Lord was very angry with Aaron to have destroyed him: and I prayed for Aaron also the same time.
BAWIPA ni Aron raphoe hanelah a lung puenghoi a khuek dawkvah, Aron hane lahai ka ratoum.
21 And I took your sin, the calf which ye had made, and burnt it with fire, and stamped it, and ground it very small, even until it was as small as dust: and I cast the dust thereof into the brook that descended out of the mount.
Yonnae tie na sak awh e maitoca hah ka la teh, a tui lah kalawng sak. A kanuikapin lah rekrek ka kanawi teh, mon dawk hoi ka lawng e palang dawk ka tâkhawng.
22 And at Taberah, and at Massah, and at Kibroth-hattaavah, ye provoked the Lord to wrath.
Taberah, Messah hmuen, Kiborthhattaavah hmuen koe hai, nangmouh ni BAWIPA hah a lungkhuek nahanlah na sak awh.
23 Likewise when the Lord sent you from Kadesh-barnea, saying, Go up and possess the land which I have given you; then ye rebelled against the commandment of the Lord your God, and ye believed him not, nor hearkened to his voice.
Kadeshbarnea hoi BAWIPA ni cet awh nateh, kai ni na poe e ram hah lat awh. Nangmouh na patoun awh navah, nangmouh ni nangmae BAWIPA e kâ poe e na kangek awh. BAWIPA na yuem awh hoeh, lawk hai ngâi laipalah na o awh.
24 Ye have been rebellious against the Lord from the day that I knew you.
Ka panue hnin hoi nangmouh teh BAWIPA hah na taran awh toe.
25 Thus I fell down before the Lord forty days and forty nights, as I fell down at the first; because the Lord had said he would destroy you.
BAWIPA ni nangmouh na raphoe han telah a dei dawkvah, kai teh yampa e patetlah hnin 40 rum 40 touh ka tabo.
26 I prayed therefore unto the Lord, and said, O Lord God, destroy not thy people and thine inheritance, which thou hast redeemed through thy greatness, which thou hast brought forth out of Egypt with a mighty hand.
BAWIPA koe, Oe Bawipa Jehovah, lentoenae hoi na ratang teh, thaonae kut hoi Izip hoi na tâcokhai e, nange râw lah kaawm e hete taminaw hah raphoe hanh loe.
27 Remember thy servants, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; look not unto the stubbornness of this people, nor to their wickedness, nor to their sin:
Nange san Abraham, Isak, Jakop hah pahnim hanh. Hete miphunnaw teh a lungpatanae, a yonnae hoi a hawihoehnae pâkuem pouh hanh.
28 Lest the land whence thou broughtest us out say, Because the Lord was not able to bring them into the land which he promised them, and because he hated them, he hath brought them out to slay them in the wilderness.
Hottelah hoeh pawiteh, tâconae ram dawk e taminaw ni, Cathut ni a kam pouh e ram dawk, a thokhai thai hoeh dawkvah, a hmu ngaihoeh dawk na ou, kahrawngum thei hanelah a ngai dawk na ou ati han nahoehmaw.
29 Yet they are thy people and thine inheritance, which thou broughtest out by thy mighty power and by thy stretched out arm.
Hetnaw teh lentoenae hoi, na kut na dâw teh, na tâcokhai e nange râwnaw doeh telah kai ni ka ratoum.
