< Deuteronomy 14 >

1 “You [are] sons of your God YHWH; you do not cut yourselves, nor make baldness between your eyes for the dead;
Nangcae loe na Angraeng Sithaw ih caa ah na oh o; kadueh kami hanah, ngan to aat hmah loe, na mik salak ih hma sam doeh aat hmah.
2 for you [are] a holy people to your God YHWH, and YHWH has fixed on you to be to Him for a people, a peculiar treasure, out of all the peoples who [are] on the face of the ground.
Nangcae loe na Angraeng Sithaw han ciimcai kami ah na oh o; long kaminawk boih thungah, Angraeng mah angmah ih kami ah suek hanah, nangcae to qoih boeh.
3 You do not eat any abomination;
Panuet thok hmuen kawbaktih doeh caa hmah.
4 this [is] the beast which you eat: ox, lamb of the sheep, or kid of the goats,
Na caak han ih moinawk loe maitaw, tuu hoi maeh,
5 deer, and roe, and fallow deer, and wild goat, and ibex, and antelope, and zemer;
Tasuk, tasuk kalen, sakhi, sathar, taw ih maeh, saza hoi mae nui ih tuunawk,
6 and every beast dividing the hoof, and cleaving the cleft into two hooves, bringing up the cud, among the beasts—you eat it.
moi thungah a khokpadae hnetto kangbawk, rawkcak pathok thaih moinawk to caa oh.
7 Only, this you do not eat, of those bringing up the cud, and of those dividing the cloven hoof: the camel, and the hare, and the hyrax, for they are bringing up the cud, but the hoof has not divided—they [are] unclean to you;
Rawkcak loe pathok thaih, toe khokpadae kangbawk moi thungah, kaengkuu hrang, saveh hoi kanghmong thlungkhaw thungah kaom moinawk to caa o hmah; to moinawk loe rawkcak pathok o thaih, toe a khok hnetto angbawk ai pongah, nangcae hanah ciim ai.
8 and the sow, for it is dividing the hoof, and not [bringing] up the cud—it [is] unclean to you; you do not eat of their flesh, and you do not come against their carcass.
Ok loe a khok hnetto angbawk, toe rawkcak pathok ai pongah, nangcae han ciim ai; a moi to caa o hmah, kadueh qok doeh sui o hmah.
9 This you eat of all which [are] in the waters: anything that has fins and scales you eat;
Tui thungah kaom moinawk boih thungah, pakhraeh hoi ahlip kaom tanganawk to caa oh.
10 and anything which does not have fins and scales you do not eat—it [is] unclean to you.
Toe pakhraeh hoi ahlip kaom ai tanganawk to loe caa o hmah; nangcae han ciim ai.
11 Any clean bird you eat;
Kaciim tavaanawk to na caak o boih thaih.
12 and these [are] they of which you do not eat: the eagle, and the bearded vulture, and the osprey,
Toe tahmu, tahmu prawn, moi caa kamnum tahmu prawnnawk,
13 and the kite, and the falcon, and the vulture after its kind,
tahmu, masih hoi tahmu congcanawk boih,
14 and every raven after its kind;
pangaah tavaanawk boih,
15 and the ostrich, and the nightjar [[or male ostrich]], and the seagull, and the hawk after its kind;
bukbuh, tahnongsawk tui tavaa, aqum ah tavaa kacop thaih tahmunawk,
16 the little owl, and the great owl, and the waterhen,
kathoeng hoi kalen bukbuh tavaa boih, tahnongsawk tui tavaanawk,
17 and the pelican, and the Egyptian vulture, and the cormorant,
praezaek ih bukbuh, tanga kacaa tahmu, tahnong ah rawkcak patunghaih kaom tavaanawk,
18 and the stork, and the heron after its kind, and the hoopoe, and the bat.
tahmawh sawk tui tavaa, akhok sawk moe, tahnong angkawn tavaa hoi pungpihnawk to caa o hmah.
19 And every teeming thing which is flying—it [is] unclean to you; they are not eaten;
Pakhraeh kaom, kavak hinghaih tawn hmuennawk loe nangcae han ciim ai pongah caa o hmah.
20 any clean bird you eat.
Toe kaciim tavaanawk boih to caa oh.
21 You do not eat of any carcass; you give it to the sojourner who [is] within your gates, and he has eaten it; or sell [it] to a stranger; for you [are] a holy people to your God YHWH. You do not boil a kid in its mother’s milk.
Nangcae loe na Angraeng Sithaw han ciimcai kami ah na oh o pongah, kadueh qok to caa o hmah; na vangpui thungah kaom angvin caak hanah paek oh; to tih ai boeh loe kalah kaminawk khaeah zaw oh; maeh caa loe amno ih tahnutui hoiah nawnto thong o hmah.
22 You certainly tithe all the increase of your seed which the field is bringing forth year by year;
Na lawk thung hoi saning kruek tacawt thingthai qumponawk to, hato thungah maeto paek oh.
23 and you have eaten before your God YHWH, in the place where He chooses to cause His Name to dwell, the tithe of your grain, of your new wine, and of your oil, and the firstlings of your herd, and of your flock, so that you learn to fear your God YHWH [for] all the days.
Hato thungah maeto paek ih cang, misrutui hoi situi, tapen tangsuek maitawnawk hoi tuucaanawk to, angmah ih ahmin ohsak hanah, a qoih ih ahmuen ah na Angraeng Sithaw hmaa ah caa oh; to tiah na sak o nahaeloe, na Angraeng Sithaw to dungzan ah zit hanah nam tuk o thai tih.
24 And when the way is too much for you, that you are not able to carry it—when the place is too far off from you which your God YHWH chooses to put His Name there, when your God YHWH blesses you—
Na Angraeng Sithaw mah tahamhoihaih paek naah, Angraeng angmah ih ahmin to suek hanah, qoih ih ahmuen loe angthla parai pongah, hato thungah maeto na sin o thai ai nahaeloe,
25 then you have given [it] in money, and have bound up the money in your hand, and gone to the place on which your God YHWH fixes;
hato thungah maeto paek ih hmuen to phoisa hoiah zaw oh; phoisa to sin oh loe, na Angraeng Sithaw mah qoih ih ahmuen ah caeh oh;
26 and you have given the money for anything which your soul desires, for oxen, and for sheep, and for wine, and for strong drink, and for anything which your soul asks for, and you have eaten before your God YHWH there, and you have rejoiced, you and your house.
to phoisa hoiah na koeh ih hmuen to qan ah; na caak koeh ih maitaw maw, to tih ai boeh loe tuu caa, to tih ai boeh loe misurtui maw, to tih ai boeh loe kalah naek koi tui maw, to tih ai boeh loe na koeh ih hmuen to na qan pacoengah, nangmacae Angraeng Sithaw hmaa ah, nangmah hoi na imthung takoh boih nawnto caa oh loe, kanawm ah om oh.
27 As for the Levite who [is] within your gates, you do not forsake him, for he has no portion and inheritance with you.
Na vangpui thungah kaom Levinawk loe, nangcae salakah taham tawn o ai moe, qawk doeh toep o ai pongah, nihcae to pahnawt o sut hmah.
28 At the end of three years you bring out all the tithe of your increase in that year, and have placed [it] within your gates;
Saning thumto boeng pacoengah, saning kruek na sin o ih hato thungah maeto loe, nangmacae ih vangpui thungah suem oh;
29 and the Levite has come in—for he has no part and inheritance with you—and the sojourner, and the fatherless, and the widow, who [are] within your gates, and they have eaten, and been satisfied, so that your God YHWH blesses you in all the work of your hand which you do.”
to naah nangcae salakah taham katawn ai, qawk doeh toep ai Levinawk, angvinnawk, na vangpui thungah kaom ampa tawn ai kaminawk hoi lamhmainawk angzo o ueloe, zok kamhah ah caa o tih; to tiah na sak o nahaeloe, na Angraeng Sithaw mah na ban hoiah sak ih hmuennawk boih ah tahamhoihaih paek tih.
