< Deuteronomy 22 >
1 “You do not see the ox of your brother or his sheep driven away, and have hidden yourself from them, you certainly turn them back to your brother;
Na manuca kah vaito khaw, a tu khaw a tloeng te na hmuh vaengah thuh pah boeh. Na manuca taengah thak rhoe la thak.
2 and if your brother [is] not near to you, and you have not known him, then you have removed it to the midst of your house, and it has been with you until your brother seeks it, and you have given it back to him;
Te dongah nang te na manuca neh na yoei pawt tih anih te na ming pawt atah namah im khui la khuen lamtah na manuca loh han tlap tih anih taengla na bal hil namah taengah om saeh.
3 and so you do to his donkey, and so you do to his garment, and so you do to any lost thing of your brother’s, which is lost by him, and you have found it; you are not able to hide yourself.
Te vanbangla a laak khaw saii pah lamtah a himbai khaw saii pah. Te phoeiah na manuca kah hnohma boeih khaw te tlam te saii pah. Anih taengkah aka hma te na hmuh atah om vapsa hamla ngaih boeh.
4 You do not see the donkey of your brother, or his ox, falling in the way, and have hid yourself from them; you certainly raise [them] up for him.
Na manuca kah laak khaw, a vaito khaw long ah a cungku te na hmuh lalah te lamkah te thuh uh boeh. Anih te thoh rhoela thoh puei.
5 Anything of a man is not on a woman, nor does a man put on the garment of a woman, for anyone doing these [is] an abomination [to] your God YHWH.
Tongpa kah hnopai te huta pum dongla om boel saeh lamtah huta himbai te tongpa loh bai boel saeh. Te tla aka saii boeih te BOEIPA na Pathen kah a tueilaehkoi ni.
6 When a bird’s nest comes before you in the way, in any tree, or on the earth, [with] brood or eggs, and the mother is sitting on the brood or on the eggs, you do not take the mother with the young ones;
Na mikhmuh kah long taengah thing boeih dongah khaw, diklai dongah vaa bu khaw, vapuel neh a duei khaw a tong mai ni. Tedae vapuel so neh a duei soah aka oi a manu khaw a manu te a ca neh lo boeh.
7 you certainly send the mother away, and take the young ones for yourself, so that it is well with you and you have prolonged days.
Vapuel te namah ham na lo mai cakhaw a manu tah hlah rhoe hlah. Te daengah ni namah ham khaw then vetih na hinglung a vang eh.
8 When you build a new house, then you have made a parapet for your roof, and you do not put blood on your house when one falls from it.
Im thai na sak atah na imphu ah longkhawn na saii ni. Te daengah ni te lamkah aka cungku loh cungku cakhaw na imphu kah hlang thii na yook pawt eh.
9 You do not sow your vineyard [with] two kinds [of seed], lest the fullness of the seed which you sow and the increase of the vineyard be separated.
Na misur aka coom te tue boeh. Cangtii na tuh kah a thaihhmin neh misur thaih te na poeih ve.
10 You do not plow with an ox and with a donkey together.
Vaito neh laak te hmaih bok boeh.
11 You do not put on mixed material, wool and linens together.
Tumul neh hlamik a yaep te hmaih bai boeh.
12 You make fringes for yourself on the four skirts of your covering with which you cover [yourself].
Na himbai dongkah a hmoi pali dongah namah loh sihno bang lamtah bai.
13 When a man takes a wife, and has gone in to her, and hated her,
Hlang pakhat loh yuu a loh tih a kun thil coeng dae a hmuhuet dongah,
14 and laid evil deeds of words against her, and brought out an evil name against her, and said, I have taken this woman, and I draw near to her, and I have not found proofs of virginity in her;
a olka, a khoboe khaw a yuu taengah a tloe la vik a khueh mai ni. Te phoeiah anih te ming thae phueih sak ham a ngaih tih, “Hekah huta he ka loh tih a taengla ka kun vaengah anih he a cuemnah ka hmuh moenih,” a ti thai.
15 then the father of the girl, and her mother, have taken and brought out the girl’s proofs of virginity to [the] elderly of the city in the gate,
Te vaengah hula te hula amah kah a napa neh a manu loh lo saeh. Te phoeiah hula te hula kah cuemnah neh khopuei vongka kah patong rhoek taengah thak saeh.
16 and the father of the girl has said to the elderly, I have given my daughter to this man for a wife, and he hates her;
Te vaengah hula kah a napa loh patong rhoek taengah, “Hekah hlang taengah a yuu la ka canu ka paek dae vik a hnoel.
17 and behold, he has laid evil deeds of words, saying, I have not found proofs of virginity for your daughter—and these [are] the proofs of virginity of my daughter! And they have spread out the garment before [the] elderly of the city.
Te dongah a khoboe neh ol a saii tih, “Na canu te a cuemnah ka hmu pawh,” a ti tarha. Tedae ka canu kah a cuemnah tah he pawn ni,” ti saeh lamtah khopuei patong rhoek kah mikhmuh ah himbai te phaih uh saeh.
18 And [the] elderly of that city have taken the man, and discipline him,
Te vaengah tekah hlang te khopuei patong rhoek loh lo uh saeh lamtah toel uh saeh.
19 and fined him one hundred pieces of silver, and given [them] to the father of the girl, because he has brought out an evil name on a virgin of Israel; and she is to him for a wife—he is not able to send her away [for] all his days.
Anih loh Israel oila te ming thae a phueih sak dongah tangka yakhat neh sah sak uh saeh lamtah hula kah a napa te pae uh saeh. Te daengah anih yuu la om vetih a hing tue khuiah anih te tueih hamla a noeng pawt eh.
20 And if this thing has been truth—proofs of virginity have not been found for the girl—
Tedae olka he oltak la om tih hula kah hula a cuemnah te a hmuh uh pawt mai ni.
21 then they have brought out the girl to the opening of her father’s house, and the men of her city have stoned her with stones and she has died, for she has done folly in Israel, to go whoring [in] her father’s house; and you have put away evil out of your midst.
Te vaengah hula te a napa im kah thohka taengla khuen uh saeh. Te phoeiah anih te khopuei kah tongpa rhoek loh lungto neh dae uh saeh lamtah duek saeh. A napa im kah a cukhalh neh Israel khuiah boethae halang a saii. Te dongah boethae na khui lamloh khoe.
22 When a man is found lying with a woman married to a husband, then both of them have died—the man who is lying with the woman, and the woman; and you have put away evil out of Israel.
Va loh a yuunah tangtae huta te tongpa loh a yalh puei vaengah a uum atah hlang yuu taengah aka yalh tongpa khaw huta khaw a boktlap la duek saeh. Te dongah boethae tah Israel khui lamloh khoe.
23 When there is a girl, a virgin, betrothed to a man, and a man has found her in a city and lain with her,
Hula tanu oila te tongpa ham a bae pah coeng dae khopuei khuikah tongpa pakhat loh a hmuh tih a yalh puei mai ni.
24 then you have brought them both out to the gate of that city, and stoned them with stones, and they have died: the girl, because that she has not cried in a city; and the man, because that he has humbled his neighbor’s wife; and you have put away evil out of your midst.
Te vaengah amih rhoi te khopuei vongka la khuen uh. Tekah dumlai dongah hula tanu long khaw khopuei khuiah pang kangna boel saeh. Tongpa khaw a hui kah a yuu te dumlai la a puei dongah lungto neh dae uh lamtah duek saeh. Te dongah boethae tah na khui lamloh khoe uh.
25 And if the man finds the girl who is betrothed in a field, and the man has laid hold on her, and lain with her, then the man who has lain with her has died alone;
Hlang loh a bae tangtae hula te tongpa pakhat loh kohong ah a uum mai ni. Te vaengah tongpa loh anih te a paco tih a yalh puei atah anih aka yalh puei tongpa amah bueng mah dawk duek saeh.
26 and you do not do anything to the girl—the girl has no deadly sin; for as a man rises against his neighbor and has murdered him, [taking] a life, so [is] this thing;
Tedae hula taengah tah dumlai saii boeh. A duek ham tueng tholhnah khaw hula taengah a om moenih. Tongpa loh a hui a tlai thil tih a hinglu a ngawn pah vanbangla tahae kah dumlai he khaw om van.
27 for he found her in a field, [and when] she has cried—the girl who is betrothed—then she has no savior.
A bae tangtae hula tanu te kohong ah a uum tih tekah hula loh a pang thil lalah anih te a rhun moenih.
28 When a man finds a girl, a virgin who is not betrothed, and has caught her, and lain with her, and they have been found,
A bae hlan hula, tanu, oila te tongpa loh a uum tih a tuuk mai ni. Te vaengah anih a yalh puei a uum uh mai ni.
29 then the man who is lying with her has given fifty pieces of silver to the father of the girl, and she is to him for a wife; because that he has humbled her, he is not able to send her away [for] all his days.
Te vaengah hula kah a napa te hula aka yalh puei tongpa loh tangka sawmnga neh sah saeh. Tedae anih te a puei coeng dongah anih yuu la om saeh. Amah tue khuiah tah anih te hlak hamla a coeng moenih.
30 A man does not take his father’s wife, nor uncover his father’s skirt.”
Tongpa loh a napa kah a yuu te rhawt boel saeh lamtah a napa kah a mul khaw nawn pah boel saeh.
