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.
Nangmouh ni talai dawk na hring nathung na coe awh nahanelah, na mintoenaw ni a bawk awh e BAWIPA Cathut ni na poe e ram dawk na tarawi awh hane phunglawknaw hoi lawkcengnae hateh,
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;
nangmouh ni na uk awh e miphunnaw ni, bawknae monnaw, monruinaw dawk e thingkungnaw rahim kaawm e cathutnaw hai thoseh, bawknae hmuen puenghai thoseh koung na raphoe pouh awh han.
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.
Ahnimae thuengnae khoungroenaw hai na raphoe pouh han. Meikaphawknaw hai na raphoe pouh han. Asherimnaw hai hmai hoi na sawi pouh han. Ahnimae cathut kutsaknaw hah na tâtueng awh han. Hote hmuen dawk hote cathut min na raphoe awh han.
4 You do not do so to your God YHWH;
Hot patet lae hnonaw hno lahoi BAWIPA Cathut na bawk awh mahoeh.
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,
Hateiteh, BAWIPA Cathut ni na miphun thung hoi a min ao nahanelah, a rawi e hmuen hah na tawng awh vaiteh hote hmuen koe na cei awh han.
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;
Hote hmuen koe nangmouh ni hmaisawi thuengnae naw hoi pung hra pung touh thueng e hno, kahek e hno lawkkamnae hoi kâkuen e thueng e hno, mahmawk sak e thueng e hno hoi maito, hmaloe ka khe e tunaw hah na thokhai awh han.
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.
Hote hmuen koe nangmae BAWIPA Cathut hmalah na ca awh han. Na sak nah tangkuem dawk nangmae BAWIPA Cathut ni yawhawi na poe dawkvah, nangmouh teh, nama hoi na imthungnaw, na kut hoi na tawk e naw pueng dawkvah na lunghawi han.
8 You do not do according to all that we are doing here today—each [doing] anything that is right in his own eyes—
Atu e tueng, hete hmuen koe na sak e patetlah hote hmuen koe tami pueng ma pouknae rumram hoi na sak awh mahoeh.
9 for until now you have not come to the rest and to the inheritance which your God YHWH is giving to you.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, nangmouh teh, kâhatnae ram dawk thoseh, nangmae BAWIPA Cathut ni râw lah na poe e ram dawk thoseh, na kâen awh hoeh rah.
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,
Nangmouh teh Jordan palang na raka awh toteh, na coe awh hane nangmae BAWIPA Cathut ni râw lah na poe e ram dawk na o awh vaiteh, tarannaw e kut dawk hoi nangmouh na rungngang teh karoumcalah na o awh han.
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.
A min ao nahanelah, nangmae BAWIPA Cathut ni a rawi e hmuen haw vah ao han. Hote hmuen koe kai ni lawk na thui e patetlah nangmae hmaisawi thuengnae, satheinaw, pung hra pung touh, na kut hoi na sak e hnonaw, BAWIPA koe lawk na kam e patetlah lawkkam e naw pueng hah na thokhai awh han.
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.
Namamouh hoi nangmae capanaw, canunaw, sanpanaw, sannunaw, râw pang hane ao hoeh dawkvah, nangmae longkha thung kaawm e Levihnaw hoi cungtalah nangmae BAWIPA Cathut hmalah na lunghawi awh han.
13 Take heed to yourself lest you cause your burnt-offerings to ascend in any place which you see;
Nangmouh teh, na hmu awh e hmuen pueng dawk hmaisawi thuengnae na sak awh hoeh nahanelah, na kâhruetcuet awh han.
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.
Hatei, nange miphun thung dawk hoi phun touh koe kaawm e BAWIPA ni a rawi e hmuen dawkvah hmaisawi thuengnae hah na sak han. Hote hmuen koevah, kai ni lawk na thui e naw pueng hah na sak awh han.
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.
Hatnavah, BAWIPA Cathut ni yawhawi na poe e patetlah na onae kho tangkuem kaawm e na ca ngai e pueng na thei vaiteh longkha ca thainae kâ na tawn awh. Kathounge hoi kathounghoehe ni hai sayuk sakhi patetlah hote moi hah a ca thai.
16 Only, you do not eat the blood—you pour it on the earth as water;
Hatnavah, a thi na cat awh mahoeh. Tui rabawk e patetlah talai dawk na rabawk awh han.
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 kho thung kaawm e nange cakang, nange misurtui, nange satui, nange maito, nange tu camin, lawk na kam e nange lawkkam abuemlah, na mahmawk na poe hno, na kut hoi na sak e hno pung hra pung touh hah na cat mahoeh.
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;
Hatei, nama hoi cungtalah, nange capa, nange canu, nange sanpa, nange sannu, nange longkha thung kaawm e Levihnaw ni nangmae BAWIPA Cathut ma ni a rawi e hmuen koe nangmae BAWIPA Cathut e hmalah na ca awh han.
19 take heed to yourself lest you forsake the Levite [for] all your days on your ground.
Na ram thung na o awh roukrak, Levih miphunnaw na pahnim awh hoeh nahanelah kâhruetcuet awh.
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.
Nange BAWIPA Cathut ni nang hanelah lawkkam e patetlah na ram ramri a kaw sak toteh, nang ni moi ka cat haw nei telah na ti vaiteh, na lungthin ni moi ca hane a ngai dawkvah, nang ni na lungngai e patetlah moi na ca han.
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;
Nangmae BAWIPA Cathut ni a min ao nahanelah na rawi pouh e hmuen teh, nang hoi hlatpoung pawiteh, nang koe ka dei e patetlah BAWIPA ni na poe e maito hoi tu hah na thei vaiteh, na longkha thungvah na lungngai patetlah na ca thai.
22 only, as the roe and the deer is eaten, so do you eat it; the unclean and the clean alike eat it.
Sayuk sakhi moi na ca e patetlah hote moi hah na ca thai. Kathounge hoi kathounghoehe ni hai hote moi hah reirei a ca thai.
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;
A thi na ca awh hoeh nahanelah kâhruetcuet sak awh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, thi teh hringnae doeh. Hringnae hoi a moi reirei na cat mahoeh.
24 you do not eat it—you pour it on the earth as water;
Na cat awh roeroe mahoeh. Tui rabawk e patetlah talai dawk na rabawk han.
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.
Nang teh BAWIPA e hmalah kalan e hno hah na sak dawkvah, nang hoi cungtalah, na catounnaw hawinae na coe awh nahan, a thi hah na cat awh mahoeh.
26 Only, your holy things which you have, and your vows, you take up, and have gone to the place which YHWH chooses,
Nang dawk kaawm e kathounge hnonaw hoi nange lawkkamnaw dueng hah na sin vaiteh, BAWIPA ni a rawi e hmuen koe na cet awh.
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.
A moi hoi a thi na kalawt vaiteh, nange BAWIPA Cathut e hmaisawi thuengnae khoungroe van na thueng han. Sathei e a thi hah nange BAWIPA Cathut e thuengnae khoungroe van na awi vaiteh, a moi hah na ca han.
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.
Nange BAWIPA Cathut hmalah kahawi ni teh kalan e hno na sak dawkvah, nang hoi na catounnaw hoi cungtalah, hawinae pou na coe awh nahan, nang koe kâ na poe e hete lawknaw hah na tarawi nahanelah kâhruetcuet loe.
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—
Na cei vaiteh na coe hane ram dawk kaawm e miphunnaw hah, nange BAWIPA Cathut ni na hmalah a raphoe toteh, nang ni ahnimanaw hah na pâlei vaiteh, ahnimae ram dawk kho na sak han.
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?
Na hmalah ahnimouh a rawk awh hnukkhu, ahnimouh ni a sak awh e patetlah na sak awh teh na yon awh hoeh nahanelah, hete miphunnaw ni amamae cathut hah bangtelamaw a bawk awh, kai hai hottelah ka bawk van han telah dei teh, ahnimae cathut kong pacei hoeh nahanelah mahoima kâhruetcuet loe.
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.
Ahnimouh ni a sak awh e patetlah na BAWIPA Cathut koe na sak awh mahoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA Cathut ni a ngaihoeh e panuettho e hno hah amamae cathut koe a sak awh teh, amamae capanaw hoi canunaw patenghai amamae cathut hanelah hmai a sawi awh.
32 The whole thing which I am commanding you, you observe to do it; you do not add to it, nor diminish from it.”
Nang teh kai ni kâ na poe e pueng hah na sak nahanelah na kâhruetcuet han. Nang ni bout thapsin hanh, bout rayu hanh.
