< Numbers 18 >
1 And YHWH says to Aaron, “You, and your sons, and the house of your father with you, bear the iniquity of the sanctuary; and you and your sons with you bear the iniquity of your priesthood;
Pakaiyin Aaron heng ah thu asei jin, nangma na hin nachapate ahin, na insung Levite chilhah hon na boncha uva Hou-in Theng sung’a boina le suhkhel jouse chung’a mo na poh diu ahi. Chuleh Thempu natoh na chung chnag’a mopoh na jouse vang nang leh na chapate chung’a bou chu ding ahi,” ati.
2 and also your brothers, the tribe of Levi, the tribe of your father, bring near with you, and they are joined to you, and serve you, even you and your sons with you, before the Tent of the Testimony.
“Na phung chanpi Levi chate ho chu nang leh na chapate toh Houbuh sung’a ki thokhom ding in, hin pui jin lang hung un, Kitepna Thingkong maija na toh diu kin hung tong pan tauvin,” ati.
3 And they have kept your charge, and the charge of all the tent; only, they do not come near to the vessels of the holy place and to the altar, and they do not die, either they or you;
Ahin Levite vang chu houbuh maichama natong ache teng ule, amaho chu ching thei tah a aum uva na atoh’u a ngaije. Maicham mun theng lam ah thilkeo ho komma nailut lou ding ahi. Hiche ho chu atham khah tah uva ahile nangma na hin, na sopi ho abon na nathi soh hel diu ahi.
4 and they have been joined to you and have kept the charge of the Tent of Meeting for all the service of the tent; and a stranger does not come near to you;
Levite tia kiminsah jouse houbuh maicham semna natoh na jouse jao cheh diu ahi. Ahinlah midang vang nangma toh natong’a nakitho pi dinga pang thei lou ding ahi.
5 and you have kept the charge of the holy place and the charge of the altar, and there is no more wrath against the sons of Israel.
Houbuh maicham kintheng sunga natong, akimang cha ding ho ahin nangman hiche thupeh jouse hi chingthei tah na jui leh Pathen lung hanna nangho Israelte chunga um kit talou ding ahi.
6 And I, behold, have taken your brothers the Levites from the midst of the sons of Israel; they are a gift given to you by YHWH to do the service of the Tent of Meeting;
Keima katah satah’a nangma Levite lah na natoh khompi ding Israelte ka lhen doh peh ding ahi. Amaho jouse chu nangma dia hung kipedoh diu Houbuh maicham kin theng na tong ding ahiuve.
7 and you and your sons with you keep your priesthood for everything of the altar and within the veil, and you have served; I make your priesthood a gift [for] service; and the stranger who is coming near is put to death.”
Ahin lah nangma nahin na chate jouse vang hiche kin theng maicham thempu natoh kiti jouse nanghon na tahsa tah’a na bol diu ahiye. Chuleh maicham phol sunga thil kimsel la pondal nung lam’a umjouse jong jaona ahi.
8 And YHWH speaks to Aaron: “And I, behold, have given to you the charge of My raised-offerings, of all the hallowed things of the sons of Israel—I have given them to you and to your sons for the anointing, by a continuous statute.
Pakai thupeh jouse hi Aaron henga sei peh in hiche kinthenga Israel miten ahin toh hou chu vetup dinga ki nganse na hitai. Nangma nahin na chate ahin kin thenga hung ki tohdoh jouse hiche maichamma hohi atonsot nadia mopohna ahitai.
9 This is yours from the most holy things, from the fire: all their offering, of all their present, and of all their sin-offering, and of all their guilt-offering, which they give back to Me, is most holy to you and to your sons;
Nangma maicham kinthenga thupi pentah chu mopoh na nakipe ahitai meivam min ahal lhah lou beh ding, maicham athupi pentah hiche ho chu: lou ahin mim le changa maicham chonset jeh’a chule themmo na jeh’a maicham ho hi atheng chungnung maicham kiti ding hichu nangma ahin nachatea channa ding ahi.
10 you eat it among the most holy things; every male eats it; it is holy to you.
Nangman hiche maicham chu na toh ding, atheng chungnung pentah maicham jong ahin Pasal jouse anah thei cheh u ahi. Chuleh nangman hiche maicham hi atheng chung nunga na gel ding ahi.
11 And this [is] yours: the raised-offering of their gift, with all the wave-offerings of the sons of Israel; I have given them to you, and to your sons, and to your daughters with you, by a continuous statute; every clean one in your house eats it;
Israel miten maicham kintheng ahung kitoh jouse ka masang’a pumgo thilto hung toh jouse aboncha a nangma’a hi ding ahin, hiche ho jouse aboncha nacha numei le pasal jouse nangho tonsot gouva dinga ka peh doh ahi tai. Nangma insung mite jouse koihi tah jong leh Pathen dantheng dungjuija kisutheng jouse hiche maicham kinthenga hung kitoh doh jouse’n aneh thei cheh ding ahi.
12 all the best of the oil, and all the best of the new wine, and wheat—their first-[fruits] which they give to YHWH—I have given them to you.
Keiman nangma hi chavang lousoh jouse mipiten Pathen’na dia maicham ma ahin todoh jouse kapeh doh ahitai-Olive thao jouse chule lengpi tui athah chule louhing anche ga jouse chu ahi.
13 The first-fruits of all that [is] in their land, which they bring to YHWH, are yours; every clean one in your house eats it;
Gamsunga louga ahung lhung masa jouse mipite ho jouse aboncha nangma ding ahin, nangma insunga aki sutheng jouse hiche maichamma hung kitoh doh jouse chu anehthei ding ahi.
14 every devoted thing in Israel is yours;
Israel gamsunga Pathen maicham tia hung kidoh doh jouse aboncha’a nangma nachan ding ahi.
15 everyone opening a womb of all flesh which they bring near to YHWH, among man and among beast, is yours; only, you certainly ransom the firstborn of man, and you ransom the firstling of the unclean beast.
Minu akonna ahung pengdoh masa mihem makon hihen gancha konna hijong leh Pathenna dinga hung kipeh doh jouse chu nangma ading ahi. Ahinlah nangman nacha ahung pen masa khat pentah chu nahuh doh angaiyin chule gancha atheng louva peng jouse chu nasuh theng cheh angaiye.
16 And their ransomed ones from a son of a month, you ransom with your valuation [for] five shekels of silver, by the shekel of the holy place; it [is] twenty gerahs.
Amaho jouse chu suhtheng in lhakhat ahung lhing tengle, hiche ho suhthengna ding mun chu sum-eng peh nga tobang ahin shekel somni tobang ahi.
17 Only, the firstling of a cow, or the firstling of a sheep, or the firstling of a goat, you do not ransom, they [are] holy: you sprinkle their blood on the altar, and you make incense of their fat [as] a fire-offering of refreshing fragrance to YHWH;
Ahinlah nangman na huhdoh lou ding chu na suhtheng lou ding ho chu kelcha, kelngoi chule bongnou apeng masa pentah ho chu hiche gancha hochu Pakaiyin asuhtheng ahi tan, athisan hochu maicham thekhum inlang athao chu meiya halvam ma thilpeh giltah bang nga gim namtui tah’a Pathen’na ki tohdoh ding ahi.
18 and their flesh is yours, as the breast of the wave-offering and as the right leg are yours.
Hiche gancha a saphe hohi nangma na chan ding ahi. A Op-phang aje tlam saphe ho chule ahung kidom sanga Pathen’a dinga hung kikat doh jouse jaona ahi.
19 All the raised-offerings of the holy things, which the sons of Israel lift up to YHWH, I have given to you, and to your sons, and to your daughters with you, by a continuous statute—a covenant of salt; it [is] continuous before YHWH to you and to your seed with you.”
Keiman nangma kapeh nahi hiche maicham atheng dinga Israel miten Pathen henga ahin toh doh ho hi. Hiche hohi nangma dinga na chate pasal ahin numei hon atonsot’a chan nei thei dinga hiche kitepna hi Pathen le nangma kikah’a ki timatna akeh thei lou beh ding ahiye. Hichu nangma ding ahin khonung’a na chilhah te jouse ading jong ahi.
20 And YHWH says to Aaron, “You do not inherit in their land, and you do not have a portion in their midst: I [am] your portion and your inheritance in the midst of the sons of Israel;
Chuin Pathen in Aaron chu ahoulimpi tan, Israel mipite jouse masanga thempua pang ho leiset anei thei lou dingu ahi. Mipi hotoh jong nei leh gou kikop thei lou ding ahiuve keiman nanei nagou chule ijakai pijia kahi.
21 and to the sons of Levi, behold, have given all the tenth in Israel for inheritance in exchange for their service which they are serving—the service of the Tent of Meeting.
Nangma insung mite naphung chan khompi Levite chun houbuh maicham natoh ho jouse chu keima gam leiset anei khel uva Israel mipia konna gam leiset a konna hopsom kipe ding ahi.
22 And the sons of Israel no longer come near to the Tent of Meeting, to bear sin, to die,
Tu apat Israel chilhah hi jeng jong leh Levi phung chule thempu tilou koima chan houbuh kom aphal thei lou ding ahi tai. Amaho chun kinai tah’a jong ahin nai lut lou ding, ahin nailut tah uva ahileh thepmo chang ding’u chule thilo ding ahiuve.
23 and the Levites have done the service of the Tent of Meeting, and they bear their iniquity; [it is] a continuous statute throughout your generations that they have no inheritance in the midst of the sons of Israel;
Levite chilhah hon bou houbuh muna na-atoh thei dingu, itih ham khatna boina aum leh amahon mopohna anei ding’u ahi. Hichu nangma dia a-itih a jui ding’a longlou ding dan kipe ahi.
24 but the tithe of the sons of Israel which they lift up to YHWH, a raised-offering, I have given to the Levites for inheritance; therefore I have said of them, They have no inheritance in the midst of the sons of Israel.”
Ajehchu keiman Israelte chu hopsom ka peh sah ding hichu amahon maicham thenga ahin peh dingu ahi. Hiche ho jouse hi Levite chanvou ding ahin ajeh chu Leviten gamtum achombeh a anei thei lou diu ahi.
25 And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
Pakaiyin Mose henga thu hichengse hi aseijin.
26 “And you speak to the Levites, and you have said to them: When you take the tithe from the sons of Israel which I have given to you from them for your inheritance, then you have lifted up the raised-offering of YHWH from it, a tithe of the tithe;
Anoija thu kapeh hohi Levite seipeh in; Israel mipite hopsom todoh hochu keiman kana sei peh nanghon chan vou nasan ding uchu ahi. Hijeh’a chu Nanghon hiche alamdoh hou chu hopsom ma hopkhat apeh diu, Pakai, Pathen komma alhandoh diu, hichu maicham kintheng bol ah nangho a ding ahi.
27 and your raised-offering has been reckoned to you as grain from the threshing-floor and as the fullness from the wine-vat;
Pakai, Pathen in hiche maicham na hin tohdoh ho chu nangma lou gasoh nato bang uva asim ding, na changphol a kivolha masa pen ahi louleh na Lengpi tui lhohlhah masapen bang’a asan ding ahi.
28 so you lift up—you also—the raised-offering of YHWH from all your tithes which you receive from the sons of Israel; and you have given the raised-offering of YHWH from it to Aaron the priest;
Nangman Israelte maicham theng ahin touchu hopsomma khat Pathen’a dia napeh ngai ding ahi. Hiche hi Pathnenna dinga chanvou thempu Aaron chu na peh ding ahi.
29 out of all your gifts you lift up every raised-offering of YHWH, out of all its fat—its hallowed part—out of it.
Pathen in thilpeh na peh’u nanghon jong Pakai, Pathen chu apha pentah ahoi pentah peuvin, ati.
30 And you have said to them: In your lifting up its fat out of it, then it has been reckoned to the Levites as increase of a threshing-floor and as increase of a wine-vat;
Chule hiche thupeh najui ding akilom ho Levite seipeh tan nangman na maicham apha ahoi pentah ho na hin toh teng leh hiche ho chu nangma lousohga ahiloule nangma lengpi lei laiya bang tah anaki simpeh ding ahiye.
31 and you have eaten it in every place, you and your households, for it [is] your hire in exchange for your service in the Tent of Meeting;
Levite jouse nangma nahin na sopi na insung mijouse hiche na ankong hi hoi kom hijong leh naneh thei cheh diu ahi. Ajeh chu Pathen houbuh maicham na natoh jeh uva ahi.
32 and you bear no sin for it in your lifting up its fat out of it, but you do not defile the holy things of the sons of Israel, and you do not die.”
Thempu hohi apha pentah ahoi pentah napeh leh Pathen na ding nga hopsom ma hung kitoh chu naneh chun themmo nachan lou ding ahi. Ahinlah nangma chingtheiyin Israel miten thil theng tah ahin todoh hou chu imacha theng lou tah in geldan imacha na geldah khah le na thi lo jeng thei ahiye.
