Deuteronomy 12
1 These are the statutes and the regulations which ye must observe to do, in the land which Yahweh the God of thy fathers hath given unto thee, to possess it, —all the days that ye are living upon the soil:
Long ah na hing o thung, nam panawk ih Angraeng Sithaw mah toep han paek ih prae thungah na oh o naah, acoehaih hoiah na pazui o han ih zaehhoihaih daannawk hoi lokcaekhaihnawk loe hae tiah oh.
2 Ye must utterly destroy, all the places where the nations whom ye are dispossessing have served their gods, —Upon the high mountains And upon the hills, And under every green tree;
Na toep o han ih acaengnawk mah mae sang, maesom hoi kahing thing tlim boih ah sak o ih, sithaw bokhaih ahmuennawk to phrae oh;
3 And ye must tear down their altars And break in pieces their pillars, And, their sacred stems, must ye consume with fire, And the carved images of their gods, must ye fell to the ground, —And destroy their name out of that place.
nihcae ih hmaicamnawk to phrae oh loe, a thlingh o ih thlungnawk to va pae o phaeng ah; Asherah tungnawk to hmai hoiah thlaek pae oh; ban hoi a sak o moe, sithaw ah a bok o ih krangnawk to paro pae oh loe, to ahmuen ih ahminnawk to phrae oh.
4 Ye must not do thus unto Yahweh your God;
Nangcae loe to tiah na Angraeng Sithaw to bok han om ai.
5 but, unto the place which Yahweh your God shall choose out of all your tribes, to put his name there, —as his habitation, shall ye ask your way, and come in thither;
Angmah ih ahmin to caksak hanah, nangcae loe nangmacae Angraeng Sithaw mah acaengnawk boih thung hoiah qoih ih a ohhaih ahmuen to pakrong oh loe, to ahmuen ah caeh oh.
6 and bring in thither your ascending-offerings and your sacrifices, and your tithes, and the heave-offering of your hand, —and your vow-offerings and your freewill-offerings, and the firstlings of your herd and of your flock;
To ahmuen ah hmai angbawnhaih, hmuen tathlanghaih, hato thungah maeto paek ih hmuennawk, tangqum ah paek ih hmuennawk, paek han lokkam ih hmuennawk, palung angthawkhaih hoiah paek ih hmuennawk, tapen tangsuek maitawnawk hoi tuucaanawk to sin oh;
7 and shall eat there before Yahweh your God, and rejoice in all whereunto ye are putting your hand, Ye, and your households, —wherewith Yahweh thy God hath blessed thee.
to ahmuen ah na Angraeng Sithaw hmaa ah caa oh; na sak o ih hmuen boih ah, na Angraeng Sithaw mah nangcae han tahamhoihaih paek pongah, nangmah hoi na imthung takoh boih anghoe oh.
8 Ye must not do according to all that we are doing here to-day, —every man, whatsoever is right in his own eyes.
Nangcae loe vaihniah haeah a sak o ih hmuen baktiah to ah sah o hmah; haeah loe kami boih mah a mik hoiah hnuk ih kahoih hmuen baktih toengah a sak o.
9 Because ye have not entered as yet, —into the resting-place and into the inheritance which Yahweh thy God is giving unto thee.
Nangcae loe Angraeng Sithaw mah qawktoep hanah paek ih anghakhaih prae thungah na pha o ai vop.
10 But, when ye shall pass over the Jordan, and settle down in the land which, Yahweh your God, is causing you to inherit, —and he shall give you rest from all your enemies round about, and ye shall dwell securely,
Toe Jordan vapui to nang kat o moe, na Angraeng Sithaw mah qawktoep hanah paek ih prae thungah na kun o pacoeng naah loe, na taengah kaom na misanawk salak hoiah anghakhaih to na paek o ueloe, misa monghaih hoiah kho na sah o tih;
11 then shall it be, that unto the place which Yahweh your God shall choose to make a habitation for his name there, thither, shall ye bring in all that I am commanding you, —your ascending-offerings and your sacrifices your tithes and the heave-offering of your hand, and all your chosen vow-offerings which ye shall vow unto Yahweh.
to pacoengah na Angraeng Sithaw ih ahmin to oh hanah, a qoih ih ahmuen ah kang thuih o ih hmuennawk boih to sin oh; hmai angbawnhaih, hmuen tathlanghaihnawk, hato thungah maeto paek ih hmuennawk, palung angthawkhaih hoiah paek ih hmuennawk, na tawnh o ih hmuenmae thung hoiah lokkamhaih sak pacoengah, Angraeng han paek ih hmuennawk boih to sin oh:
12 So shall ye rejoice before Yahweh your God, Ye, and your sons, and your daughters, and your servants and your handmaids, —and the Levite that is within your gates, forasmuch as he hath neither portion nor inheritance with you.
na Angraeng Sithaw hmaa ah, nangmah hoi na canu na capanawk, na tamna nongpa hoi nongpatanawk, angmah taham tawn ai, qawk doeh toep ai ah, nangcae salakah kaom, Levi kaminawk hoi nawnto anghoe oh.
13 Take heed to thyself, lest thou cause thine ascending-sacrifice to go up in just any place which thou shalt see;
Na hnuk o ih ahmuen kruekah, hmai angbawnhaih to sah o hmah;
14 but, in the place which Yahweh shall choose in one of thy tribes, there, shalt thou cause thine ascending-sacrifice to go up, and, there, shalt thou do all that I am commanding thee.
nangmacae acaeng thung hoiah Angraeng mah qoih ih ahmuen khue ah hmai angbawnhaih to sah oh; kang thuih o ih loknawk boih, to ahmuen ah sah oh.
15 Howbeit of anything thy soul desireth, mayest thou sacrifice and so eat flesh—according to the blessing of Yahweh thy God which he hath bestowed upon thee, in all thy gates, the unclean and the clean may eat thereof, —as the gazelle and as the hart,
Toe na Angraeng Sithaw mah tahamhoihaih paek baktih toengah, na ohhaih ahmuen kruekah caak na koeh o nahaeloe, moi to bop oh loe caa oh; tasuk hoi sakhinawk loe kaciim kami mah doeh, kaciim ai kami mah doeh caak thaih.
16 Howbeit, the blood, shall ye not eat, —upon the earth, shalt thou pour it out, like water.
Toe athii loe caa o hmah; tui baktiah long ah krai oh.
17 Thou mayest not eat within thy gates, the tithe of thy corn or of thy new wine or of thine oil, or the firstlings of thy herd, or of thy flock, —nor any of thy vow-offerings which thou shalt vow, nor thy freewill, offerings, nor the heave-offering of thy hand;
Hato thungah maeto paek ih cang maw, to tih ai boeh loe misurtui hoi situinawk maw, to tih ai boeh loe tapen tangsuek maitaw caanawk hoi tuucaanawk, lokkam ih baktiah paek ih hmuennawk maw, palung angthawk hoiah paek ih hmuennawk maw, tangqum ah paek ih hmuennawk maw, to tih ai boeh loe abomhhaih ah paek ih hmuennawk loe nangmacae vangpui khongkha thungah caa o hmah;
18 but before Yahweh thy God, shalt thou eat it in the place which Yahweh thy God shall choose, thou and thy son and thy daughter, and thy servant and thy handmaid, and the Levite who is within thy gates, —so shalt thou rejoice before Yahweh thy God, in all whereunto thou puttest thy hand.
to baktih hmuennawk loe, na Angraeng Sithaw mah qoih ih ahmuen ah, na Angraeng Sithaw hmaa ah caa oh; nangmah hoi na canu, na capanawk, na tamna nongpa hoi nongpatanawk, na vangpui thungah kaom Levinawk hoi nawnto caa oh; na sak o ih hmuen boih ah, na Angraeng Sithaw hmaa ah anghoe oh.
19 Take heed to thyself, lest thou forsake the Levite, —all thy days upon thy soil.
Long nuiah na hing o thung, Levi acaengnawk pahnawt sut han ai ah acoe oh.
20 When Yahweh thy God shall enlarge thy boundary—as he hath spoken unto thee—and thou shalt say. I would eat flesh because thy soul desireth to eat flesh, of whatsoever thy soul desireth, mayest thou eat flesh.
Na Angraeng Sithaw mah thuih ih lok baktih toengah, na prae to lensak naah, moi anghaeh parai pongah, moi ka caak o han vop, tiah na thuih o nahaeloe, na koek zetto moi to na caak o thaih.
21 When the place which Yahweh thy God shall choose to put his name there, shall be, too far for thee, then shalt thou sacrifice of thy herd or of thy flock which Yahweh hath given unto thee, as I have commanded thee, —and shalt eat, within thine own gates, of whatsoever thy soul desireth.
Na Angraeng Sithaw mah angmah ih ahmin to suek hanah, a qoih ih ahmuen to nangcae ohhaih ahmuen hoiah angthla parai nahaeloe, Angraeng mah paek ih tuu hoi maitaw to bop oh loe, kang thuih o ih lok baktih toengah, na oh o haih ahmuen ah koeh karoek to caa oh.
22 Even as the gazelle and the hart is eaten, so, shalt thou eat it, —the unclean and the clean, alike shall eat it.
Tasuk hoi sakhi moi to na caak o baktih toengah, kaciim kami doeh, kaciim ai kami doeh caak thaih.
23 Howbeit firmly refrain from eating the blood; for the blood, is the life, —therefore must thou not eat the life with the flesh.
Toe athii loe caa o hmah; hinghaih loe athii ah oh; to pongah hinghaih to moi hoi nawnto caa o hmah.
24 Thou shalt not eat it, —upon the earth, shalt thou pour it out, like water.
Athii to caa o hmah; tui baktiah long ah krai oh.
25 Thou shalt not eat it, —that it may be well with thee and with thy children after thee when thou shalt do that which is right in the eyes of Yahweh.
Athii to caa o hmah; to tiah nahaeloe Angraeng mikhnuk ah katoeng hmuen to na sak o pongah, nangmah hoi hmabang angzo han koi na caanawk to khoisak hoih o tih.
26 Howbeit, thy holy things which thou shalt have and thy vow-offerings, shalt thou take and come in, unto the place which Yahweh shall choose;
Toe na paek ih kaciim hmuennawk, paek han lokkamhaih sak baktih toengah paek ih hmuennawk to sin oh loe, Angraeng mah qoih ih ahmuen ah caeh oh.
27 and shalt offer thine ascending-sacrifices, the flesh and the blood, upon the altar of Yahweh thy God, —and the blood of thine [other] sacrifices, shall be poured out upon the altar of Yahweh thy God, and then the flesh, shalt thou eat.
Angan hoiah maw, athii hoiah maw sak ih hmai angbawnhaih to na Angraeng Sithaw ih hmaicam nuiah sah oh; angbawnhaih athii to na Angraeng Sithaw ih hmaicam nuiah krai oh loe, angan to loe caa oh.
28 Observe and hear all these things which I am commanding thee, —that it may be well with thee and with thy children after thee, —unto times age-abiding, so long as thou shalt do that which is pleasing and right in the eyes of Yahweh thy God.
Hae tiah kang paek o ih loknawk boih hae tahngai oh loe, sah oh; to tiah na sak o nahaeloe, Angraeng mikhnuk ah kahoih hoi kamsoem tok to na sak o pongah, nangmacae hoi angzo han koi na caanawk khosak hoih o tih.
29 When Yahweh thy God shall cut off from before thee, the nations Whom thou art going in to dispossess, —and thou do dispossess them, and dwell in their land,
Na Angraeng Sithaw mah na caeh o moe, toep han ih prae thungah kaom kaminawk to nangcae hma ah amrosak boih naah, nangcae loe na caeh o tih, nihcae ih prae to na toep o ueloe, nihcae ih prae thungah kho na sah o tih;
30 take heed to thyself lest thou be thrust after them, after they have been destroyed from before thee, —and lest thou enquire after their gods, saying—In what manner, did these nations serve their gods, that, I too, may do likewise?
nangcae hma hoiah nihcae anghmat o boih pacoengah, nihcae ih tuinuen to pazui moe, dongh pongah aman han ai, nihcae loe kawbangah maw angmacae ih sithaw to bok o moe, tok a sak pae o? A sak o ih hmuen baktih toengah, ka sak o toeng han, tiah na hnik o han ai ah, acoe oh.
31 Thou shalt not do likewise unto Yahweh thy God, —for everything that is an abomination unto Yahweh which he doth hate, have they done unto their gods, for even their sons and their daughters, do they consume with fire unto their gods.
Nihcae mah sak o ih baktih toengah, na Angraeng Sithaw khaeah sah o hmah; nihcae loe Angraeng mah hnukma moe, panuet ih hmuennawk hoiah angmacae ih sithawnawk to bok o; a capanawk hoi a canunawk mataeng doeh angmacae ih sithawnawk hma ah hmai angbawnhaih ah a paek o.
32 Whatsoever be the thing which I am commanding you, the same, shall ye observe to do, —thou shalt neither add thereunto, nor take away therefrom.
Kang paek o ih loknawk boih hae pazui oh loe sah oh; patomh o hmah, azuk doeh azuk o hmah.
