< Deuteronomy 12 >
1 “These [are] the statutes and the judgments which you observe to do in the land which YHWH, God of your fathers, has given to you to possess it, all the days that you are living on the ground.
Khohmuen kahaka hing nangmih tena tue khuiah pang sak hamla na parhoek kah Pathen BOEIPAloh nang taengah m'paek khohmuen ah herhoek kah oltlueh neh laitloeknah he vai hamla ngaithuenuh.
2 You utterly destroy all the places where the nations which you are dispossessing served their gods, on the high mountains, and on the heights, and under every green tree;
Na haekuh namtom rhoek loh tho a thuengnah hmuen boeih te milh rhoe milhsakuh. Amih kah pathen te tlang ah khaw, som ah khaw, thing hing hmui boeih ah a pomsang uh lah ko.
3 and you have broken down their altars, and shattered their standing pillars, and you burn their Asherim with fire, and you cut down carved images of their gods, and have destroyed their name out of that place.
A hmueihtuk te palet lamtah a kaam te phaekuh. Amih kah Asherahte hmai neh hoehuh. Amih kah pathen mueidaepte khaw tloekuh. A ming te te hmuen lamloh phaeuh.
4 You do not do so to your God YHWH;
BOEIPA na Pathen taengah te bang te saiiuh boeh.
5 rather—that you seek after the place which your God YHWH chooses out of all your tribes to put His Name there, for His Dwelling Place, and you have entered there,
Tedae BOEIPA na Pathenloh amah minga phuktih khosak thil hama coelh hmuen te mah nangmih koca boeih loh tlapuh lamtah paanuh.
6 and have brought in there your burnt-offerings, and your sacrifices, and your tithes, and the raised-offering of your hand, and your vows, and your free-will offerings, and the firstlings of your herd and of your flock;
Te lamte na hmueihhlutnah neh hmueih khaw, parha pakhat neh na kut dongkah khocang khaw, na olcaeng neh na kothoh khaw, na saelhung neh na boiva cacuek te khaw khuenuh.
7 and you have eaten there before your God YHWH, and have rejoiced in every putting forth of your hand, you and your households, with which your God YHWH has blessed you.
BOEIPA na Pathen kah mikhmuh ah cauh. BOEIPA na Pathenloh na yoe han then sak vanbangla namamih neh na imkhui kah na kut thuengnah boeih dongahna kohoesakuh.
8 You do not do according to all that we are doing here today—each [doing] anything that is right in his own eyes—
Tihnin kah he rhoek ah mamih boeih loh n'saiiuh bangla saiiuh boeh. Hlang he amah mikhmuh ah boeih thuem ta.
9 for until now you have not come to the rest and to the inheritance which your God YHWH is giving to you.
Duemnah neh BOEIPA na Pathenloh nang taengah m'paek rho khuiah na kunuh pawt ve.
10 When you have passed over the Jordan, and have dwelt in the land which your God YHWH is causing you to inherit, and He has given rest to you from all your surrounding enemies, and you have dwelt confidently,
Jordanna poenguh tih BOEIPA na Pathenloh nangmih m'pang sak khohmuen lana omuh vaengaha kaepvai kah na thunkha cungkuem taeng lamloh nangmih n'duem sak vetih ngaikhuek la kho na sak uh bitni.
11 then it has been, the place on which your God YHWH fixes to cause His Name to dwell there, there you bring in all that which I am commanding you: your burnt-offerings, and your sacrifices, your tithes, and the raised-offering of your hand, and all the choice of your vows which you vow to YHWH.
Tedae BOEIPA na Pathenloh amah ming om sak ham amah taengaha coelh hmuen te om bitni. Teah tah kailoh nangmih kang uen vanbangla na hmueihhlutnah neh na hmueih khaw, parha pakhat neh na kut dongkah khocang khaw, BOEIPA taengahna caeng, olcaeng piyawn boeih khaw boeih khuenuh.
12 And you have rejoiced before your God YHWH, you, and your sons, and your daughters, and your menservants, and your handmaids, and the Levite who [is] within your gates, for he has no part and inheritance with you.
Te vaengah namamih neh na canu na capa rhoek khaw, na salpa neh na salnurhoek khaw, nangmih bangla khoyo neh rho om pawt tih na vongka khuiah aka om Levirhoekkhaw BOEIPA na Pathen kah mikhmuh ahna kohoesakuh.
13 Take heed to yourself lest you cause your burnt-offerings to ascend in any place which you see;
Namah te ngaithuen, na hmuh bangla hmuen cungkuem ah na hmueihhlutnahna tloeng ve.
14 rather—that in the place which YHWH chooses in one of your tribes, there you cause your burnt-offerings to ascend, and there you do all that which I am commanding you.
Namah koca pakhat khuiah BOEIPAkaha coelh hmuen bueng ahni na hmueihhlutnah te na nawn vetih kang uen bangla boeihna saii eh.
15 Nevertheless, you slaughter anything of the desire of your soul, and have eaten [its] flesh according to the blessing of your God YHWH which He has given to you in all your gates; the unclean and the clean eat it, as [if] the roe and as [if] the deer.
Tedae na hingluloh a hue boeih te ngawn lamtah BOEIPA na Pathenloh nang m'paek yoethennah maeh la ca. Na vongka khuikah boeih te tah rhalawt neha cuem khaw rhangrhaeh bangla, kirhang bangla ca saeh.
16 Only, you do not eat the blood—you pour it on the earth as water;
Tedae thii te tah ca boeh. Diklai dongah tui bangla hawk.
17 you are not able to eat within your gates the tithe of your grain, and of your new wine, and your oil, and the firstlings of your herd and of your flock, and any of your vows which you vow, and your free-will offerings, and a raised-offering of your hand;
Na cangpai, misur thai, situi parha pakhat khaw, na saelhung neh boiva cacuek, na caeng tangtae na olcaeng boeih, na kothoh neh na kut dongkah khosaa tah na vongka ahna caak ham coeng pawh.
18 but you eat it before your God YHWH in the place which your God YHWH fixes on, you, and your son, and your daughter, and your manservant, and your handmaid, and the Levite who [is] within your gates, and you have rejoiced before your God YHWH in every putting forth of your hand;
Namah neh na canu na capa long khaw, na salnu salpa long khaw, na vongka khuiah aka om Levi long khaw, BOEIPA na Pathen kah mikhmuh ah cauh. Tekaha hmuen te tah BOEIPA na Pathen amah long ni a tuek. Te dongah na kut thuengnah boeih nen khaw BOEIPA na Pathen kah mikhmuh ahna kohoesakuh.
19 take heed to yourself lest you forsake the Levite [for] all your days on your ground.
Namah te ngaithuen. na khohmuen kah na hing tue khuiah Levirhoek tena hnoo ve ne.
20 When your God YHWH enlarges your border, as He has spoken to you, and you have said, Let me eat flesh—for your soul desires to eat flesh—you eat flesh of all the desire of your soul.
Nang taengkaha thui vanbangla BOEIPA na Pathenloh na khorhi hang aeh vaengah na hingluloh maeh caak hamlaa nai tih, “Maeh ka caak lah sue,” na ti oeh atah na hingluloh a hue mebang maeh khaw na caak thai.
21 When the place is far from you [in] which your God YHWH chooses to put His Name there, then you have sacrificed from your herd and from your flock which YHWH has given to you, as I have commanded you, and have eaten within your gates, of all the desire of your soul;
BOEIPA na Pathenloh amah ming phuk thil hama coelh hmuente nang lamloh hlavak oeh tih, BOEIPAloh nang m'paek saelhung neh boivanina ngawn atah, kang uen vanbangla na hingluloh a hue bangla namah vongka ah khaw ca mai.
22 only, as the roe and the deer is eaten, so do you eat it; the unclean and the clean alike eat it.
Rhangrhaeh neh kirhangna caak bangla ca saeh lamtah rhalawt akhawa cuem akhaw rhenten ca saeh.
23 Only, be sure not to eat the blood, for the blood [is] the life, and you do not eat the life with the flesh;
Tedae a thii tah hinglu la a om dongah thiite caak pawt ham tuemuh. A hinglu te maeh neh hmaih ca boeh.
24 you do not eat it—you pour it on the earth as water;
Tete ca boel lamtah diklai dongah tui bangla hawk.
25 you do not eat it, in order that it may be well with you and with your sons after you when you do that which [is] right in the eyes of YHWH.
Na caak pawt daengahni BOEIPA mikhmuh aha thuemlaa saii vetih namah neh namah hnukkah na ca rhoek loh khophoeng a pha eh.
26 Only, your holy things which you have, and your vows, you take up, and have gone to the place which YHWH chooses,
Tedae namah taengkahaka om hnocim neh na olcaeng tah khuen lamtah BOEIPAkaha coelh hmuen te mah paan puei.
27 and you have made your burnt-offerings—the flesh and the blood—on the altar of your God YHWH; and the blood of your sacrifices is poured out by the altar of your God YHWH, and you eat the flesh.
Na hmueihhlutnah maeh neh thiite BOEIPA na Pathen kah hmueihtuk soah nawn. Tedae na hmueih thiite BOEIPA na Pathen kah hmueihtuk dongah hawk lamtaha saa tah ca mai.
28 Observe, and you have obeyed all these words which I am commanding you, in order that it may be well with you and with your sons after you for all time, when you do that which [is] good and right in the eyes of your God YHWH.
Kailoh nang kang uen olka boeih he ngaithuen lamtah hnatun. Te daengahni BOEIPA na Pathen kah mikhmuh aha thuem neha then la na saii vetih namah neh na hnukkah na ca rhoek long khaw kumhal duela khophoeng a pha eh.
29 When your God YHWH cuts off the nations—to where you are going in to possess them—from your presence, and you have possessed them, and have dwelt in their land—
Namtom haek ham na paan vaengah BOEIPA na Pathenloh na mikhmuh lamkaha tulnoicoeng. Te dongahni amih tena haek tih a khohmuen ah kho na sak.
30 take heed to yourself lest you are ensnared after them, after their being destroyed out of your presence, and lest you inquire about their gods, saying, How do these nations serve their gods, that I also do so?
Namah te ngaithuen, na mikhmuh lamkah amiha mitmoeng sak phoeiah amih hnukah n'hlaeh ve. Te dongah, “Namtom rhoekloh a pathen taengah metlam a tho a thueng uh, kai long khaw ka saii van mako?,” aka ti hamla amih kah pathen kawng te na toem ve.
31 You do not do so to your God YHWH; for every abomination that YHWH has hated they have done for their gods, for they even burn their sons and their daughters with fire for their gods.
BOEIPAkaha tueilaehkoi boeih te tah BOEIPA na Pathen taengah saii boeh. A pathen taengah hmai neh a canu a capaa hoehuh tih a pathen hama saii uh te a hmuhuet.
32 The whole thing which I am commanding you, you observe to do it; you do not add to it, nor diminish from it.”
Kailoh nang kang uen olka boeih hena saii tih na thap pawt ham nehna yueh pawt hamla ngaithuen.
